treason and plot" is but a modern meaning attached to an ancient traditional practice, for the burning of the effigy has many parallels in folk-custom. Dr. Frazer48 regards such effigies as representatives of the spirit of vegetation—by burning them in a fire that represented the sun men thought they secured sunshine for trees and crops. Later, when the ideas on which the custom was based had faded away, people came to identify these images with persons whom they regarded with aversion, such as Judas Iscariot, Luther (in Catholic Tyrol), and, apparently, Guy Fawkes in England. At Ludlow in Shropshire, it is interesting to note, if any well-known local man had aroused the enmity of the populace his effigy was substituted for, or added to, that of Guy Fawkes. Bonfire Day at Ludlow is marked by a torchlight procession and a huge conflagration.49 At Hampstead the Guy Fawkes fire and procession are still in great force. The thing has become a regular carnival, and on a foggy November night the procession along the steep curving Heath Street, with the glare of the torches lighting up the faces of dense crowds, is a strangely picturesque spectacle.*
Animal Masks.
On All Souls' Day in Cheshire there began to be carried about a curious construction called " Old Hob," a horse's head enveloped in a sheet ; it was taken from door to door, and accompanied by the singing of begging rhymes.5° Old Hob, who continued to appear until Christmas, is an English parallel to the German Schimmel or white horse. We have here to do with one of those strange animal forms which are apparently relics of sacrificial customs. They come on various days in the winter festival season, and also at other times, and may as well be considered at this point. In some cases they are definitely imitations of animals, and may have replaced real sacrificial beasts taken about in procession, in others they are simply men wearing the head, horn, hide, or tail of a beast, like the worshippers at many
* Attempts are being made to suppress the November carnival at Hampstead, and perhaps the 1911 celebration may prove to have been the last.

The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service will conduct "Landscaping in Drought", a three-part seminar series for homeowners, Aug. 16, Aug. 23 and Aug. 30 in San Angelo.
The three programs will be from 6-7 p.m. in the Stephens Central Library Community Room, 33 W. Beauregard Ave. Individual registration is $10 per seminar.
Allison Watkins, AgriLife Extension horticulturist in Tom Green County, said the series offers a prime opportunity to learn the best techniques for keeping landscapes alive during drought, while still saving water.
"Effective Aug. 1, San Angelo moved into 'drought level 1' water conservation mode, because our city only has an estimated 24 months of water left," Watkins said. "Drought level 1 means residents with sprinklers can only water every seven days and can apply no more than one inch during that interval. That, and the string of 100-degree days we've been having, makes it tough to maintain a landscape, but it can be done and our goal for this seminar series is to inform the public on ways they can have a healthy, vibrant yard even under our current stressful environmental conditions."
The seminar topics include:
– Aug. 16, How to Water the Landscape – when and how long to water, irrigation technology, drip irrigation.
– Aug. 23, Drought Tolerant Landscaping – plant selection, soil management, landscape planning.
– Aug. 30, Rainwater Harvesting – how to make a rain barrel, how to utilize large rain tanks.
For more information and to RSVP, call the AgriLife Extension office in Tom Green County at 325-659-6522.

37 Marketers Share Their Favorite Marketing Design Software
We polled 35 marketers to find the best marketing design software for creating assets for presentations and campaigns. Here are the 20 tools they recommend.
Agencies | Sep 23
Belynda Cianci on November 25, 2019 (last modified on January 13, 2020) • 32 minute read
As marketers and SEO specialists, we're always looking for ways to keep the link juice flowing. That being said, in the increasingly noisy world of content, getting noticed is becoming more difficult. Getting backlinked is even more challenging.
What's a marketer to do?
While there are many ways to increase your rank and your traffic, we suggest taking a new spin on an old adage: "If it IS broken, DO fix it."
And by that, we mean – fix those broken backlinks!
Implementing a broken backlink process, while it does take some time and commitment, can be a beneficial long-term strategy.
If you're not familiar with this traffic-building, rank-improving SEO strategy, here's a quick overview:
Broken backlink building (BLB) is a strategy by which you a) update outdated links on domains that refer to yours, or b) offer your site's content (either existing or custom-created) as a replacement for high-authority websites with broken link. Each side of this strategy is aimed at improving your site authority through high-quality inbound links.
Both types of link-building have a lot of value to offer in terms of traffic, but the process of doing so requires time and attention; depending on your niche and content, your mileage and conversion rate may vary.
If you're interested in taking advantage of this BLB, establishing in solid process (and sticking to it!) becomes essential to your success. With this in mind, we asked 60 marketing professionals for their number one tip for creating a solid strategy that can deliver results.
First, let's take a look at the internal approach to broken link-building: ensuring that all your referring domains have the most updated version of your pages. This approach is helpful for everyone, as broken links on a domain can damage the domain's reputation with Google, and broken links can't send you traffic and authority.
In most cases, you'll be empowered to make a warm approach to your referrers, because they've already found your content valuable by linking to it in the first place.
Largely, you're helping them out by offering better links and building their site reputation back up with a quick fix. Max Falb of Fueled believes this process can be a light lift if approached correctly. "It actually can be quite easy to convince people to replace a broken link with your newer ones. I would simply use a tool like SEMrush to find broken backlinks and then reach out to them letting them know exactly where it is and offering them your link to them."
Falb's one caveat: "Just make sure whatever you're offering is relevant and has up-to-date information."
Editor's note: Want to get visibility into your organic search strength, traffic, and visibility? Check out the SEMRush Keyword & Organic Search Traffic dashboard to see it all in one place.
Sanem Ahearn of Colorescience agrees, offering information for those whose links are product-related. "Replace broken product link pages with category pages," suggests Ahearn, "In the event that a product goes out of stock or the item is seasonal, users will be sent to a category page where they can see a variety of related/similar products. This will encourage users to stay on your page for longer increase the likeliness of them purchasing a product."
This approach also resonates with Chachi Flores of Peacock Alley. "Companies can easily pull data on their broken backlinks of possible sold out pages, old blog resources, and mentions of executive members," calling these starting points "a great place to start when looking to start a new broken link building campaign."
Demonstrate the value of the link to your contact, suggests Emily Banks of Inseev Interactive "Reach out to each webmaster and provide them with a new link and ask if they can replace the broken one," Since Google does not like seeing broken links on sites, webmasters may feel more inclined to add your new proposed link in instances of fixing these broken links more than they might if you were pitching your link as a brand new resource to be added."
Plus, be sure you're getting in touch with the right contact. Zach Mitchell of Hausera says, "It is important to reach out to the correct contact of your prospective site. If you can't find a contact email address on the page, check to see if they have social media. While some companies do their best to encourage readers to use a contact form page on their site, they may have included contact email information in their 'About' section of their Facebook, so you may email them directly.
Mitchell suggests using Hunter.io to help find relevant email addresses for the sites' webmasters or other responsible party. "Hunter will organize all known contacts based on categories such as executive, support, general or management." making it easy to track down the person you need.
Matthew Edgar of Elementive likes this strategy not just for SEO, but traffic. Broken links can't get eyes on your site, after all. "Go back to prior years in your analytics tool and find referral sources that are no longer delivering as much traffic as they used to deliver. Some of those referral sources might have been sending traffic to pages that are no longer on your website."
Says Edgar, "By reaching out to the webmaster of that referral source, you can hopefully get the link back. Or, you might find the site is still linking to the broken page – all you need to do is add a redirect pointing that broken page somewhere else on your website, and you'll get the link + the traffic back."
Not all inbound links are created equal, as Andrew Becks of 301 Digital Media reminds us. Becks recommends that link strategists "identify all of your broken links and prioritize the effort based on the page authority and number of inbound links to a broken URL. The longer a site has existed, the more likely there will be broken links to focus on." Good longevity is key. "For new sites, this tactic will likely be ineffective or, at the least, less effective than for a site with 5+, 10+ years of history."
Jason Yau of CanvasPeople reminds us that BLB is about much more than just "page not found." Yau offered this advice: "Dig much deeper than most common broken link tools will give you. Most tools will simply show you 404 type pages, but look much closer than that. You may have a ton of opportunities that are hiding right in plain sight." Yau recommends that by using a tool like SEMrush, "you can review your websites Top Pages (actually all of your pages) and see if those are properly linking back to your site."
Using this method allows you to see more than the binary condition of "broken" or "working." In this case, Yau says, "The link is not technically broken, but if it's going to an incorrect page or resource, it's not giving you any value. Have those links changed to a new and relevant backlink to your site."
Sam Wheeler at Inseev Interactive's Linking Team also reminds us to dig into the old structure of your site to dig up every possible link-repair opportunity. "Understand your previous site's structure. There are great crawlers out there that can help with broken link building, but it is very important to understand how older versions of your site were set up and where the link equity was pointing to."
Wheeler asks these questions. "What happened when products went out of stock? What did the old sitemaps look like? What does the current 301 structure look like? With this data, you can usually find far more broken link opportunities."
The other side of BLB involves getting your links onto high-authority sites by finding broken links on other domains and offering to fill those spaces with working, relevant content. This is a great way to get visibility on high-traffic and high authority sites, boosting your own domain authority and potentially increasing your traffic.
To do this, you need to reach out to domain owners and webmasters, and essentially point out the gap, and offer a solution.
What's the best way to achieve good conversion for your efforts? Our experts had a few tips to share.
When we asked our experts about maximizing returns for your BLB time investment, the overwhelming sentiment was this: It's not just that you do it, it's how you do it. In other words, there's an art to the practice that extends far beyond a "numbers game" (although outreach numbers do play a part, as we will see.)
Tim Sims of Kansas Sleep is a strong believer in giving before you take. Sims suggests, "Build a relationship before recommending a replacement link. In neither your first nor your second email to the website owner should you ask them to include a link to your website? You need to establish contact first so that your emails don't look spammy. Then, give them a helpful piece of advice or some feedback about the website."
Once this meaningful connection is established, "Wait a few days, and send the third email where you give them another suggestion and point out a broken link. That's when you can offer a replacement."
Put yourself in the webmaster's shoes, suggests Nick Maynard of Ridgeway. "Building broken links is all about building relationships, and that means investing time in your email outreach. Remember that you're asking a stranger to do something for you and you're much more likely to get a positive outcome with a personalized approach that spells out how they'll benefit. Automated approaches really don't work."
Outreach doesn't have to be limited to just the email itself, according to a few of our experts. Many go the extra mile to create rapport, including Jared Carrizales of Heroic Search. "Getting a link via BLB is always easier when there has been a genuine connection created. Because of this, when I prospect for BLB specifically, I follow/connect with my prospect on social media so that I have something to point back to in my initial email."
This well-rounded approach makes the rest of the process easier. "That way the ice is already broken, and some rapport is already there. This makes the 'ask' somewhat frictionless and drastically increases the likelihood that a link will get placed."
Jaroslaw Siekierski of jsiekierski.com and Allan Dib of Successwise also focus on the blog content the target has on offer. "Focus on the outreach!" says Siekierski. "Finding the targets is easy, getting the emails from the blog owners even easier but the hardest thing is to make them interested in your email. So don't be too straightforward and pushy. Spend some time reading their blog and give some feedback about the content. They will appreciate it and the whole collaboration can go much smoother."
Dib puts it to us straight. "If I don't know you— If I haven't built a relationship with you, a cold email asking my business to link to your content won't fly. So how do you get around this? Ask yourself if you've got a piece of content that would be a stellar replacement for the broken link?"
Dib continues. "Figure out what's in it for the company you're contacting. Then craft your email. Start by mentioning how much you enjoyed their article and that you want to share it with your email database and social channels. Don't be afraid to drop in some impressive numbers—this will help to influence their decision."
Once you establish your knowledge of their content and your authority within the space, then you can move on. "Mention the broken link and see if they can fix it or whether they'd consider linking to an article that you've written, which covers the same topic. Ask if they'd like to review the content piece, don't assume and attach it. Close off by mentioning any notable publications that you've written for—this helps to establish authority and credibility."
This isn't one and done, says Dib. "Make an effort to engage with their content in the coming weeks. Leave insightful comments. Share their articles on your social channels. Doing this builds goodwill and goes a long way to winning those all-important links."
Setting the tone as an authority and educator first is important, according to Juliane Sunshine of Tandem Interactive. "One tip I recommended as an organic search specialist is start by introducing your name and that you are an SEO specialist to the company with the broken link. Explain that you have noticed a broken link on their website. Kindly say to the company with broken links 'Google and users do not like broken links.' This is when during the broken link building process, you want to send the company a link (yours or the client's link) to replace the broken link on their website instead. Simple, fast and effective."
This is when during the broken link building process, you want to send the company a link (yours or the client's link) to replace the broken link on their website instead. Simple, fast and effective."
Brian Jensen Congruent Digital also believes in sweetening the deal with extra value. "In your outreach, in addition to providing a relevant replacement for the broken link you've identified, also offer something else of value." For example, Jensen suggests, "if the page is a list of resources and you've identified multiple broken links on the page, let them know about all of them and suggest suitable replacements. It's extra work, but it shows you care and can positively impact your acquisition rates."
Patricio Quiroz of Code Authority also sees the resources page as a good opportunity, and a great place to begin the process. "I would recommend starting with the resource page link building method because it is the easiest way to collect backlinks immediately. Since resource pages are literally designed to display hundreds of informative links on a certain category or industry, it is a great way to get your feet wet into broken link building."
Quiroz breaks down the process they use to hunt and replace quality links. "You will first want to run a Google search using search strings such as "Keyword" intitle:links or "Keyword" inurl:resources. You can play with this according to your topic for better results. Once you have found a promising resource page, you can install the Check my links chrome plugin which is free. Then simply run the plugin and check for any broken links on the page, you can rinse and repeat this process until you find a sweet broken link."
Once you've found a good target, "simply send the webmaster or editor of the website your pitch. Include the broken link you have found and then propose your link within the email to make it easier for the webmaster to locate it. Quiroz also recommends "inserting a couple of sentences on the value that your piece of content could bring to their audience to ensure your snag that broken link."
Louis Watton of Shiply recognizes the psychological impact of our mistakes and weights their approach carefully in email outreach. Said Watton, "pointing out something 'broken' on someone's website can either come across as incredibly helpful or quite rude. At the end of the day you are emailing someone out of the blue to point out their mistake, so you just need to be considerate of that fact! Position yourself as someone just hoping to offer assistance and you should be okay."
Good habits are hard to build, but invaluable over time, according to Bettina Clark of Prospected. The number one tip from this expert had to offer on BLB was "to integrate it into your everyday outreach work. Don't think of broken link building as a separate method that you need to do on its own."
Said Clark of the process, "Whenever I'm doing any kind of research, whether it's for outreach or content writing purposes, I simply keep an eye out for broken links. If the broken link happens to be relevant to my client's project, I come up with a highly personalized email for the website owner and offer to fix that for them. This way, I'm never just doing broken link building. I'm doing digital marketing, which happens to include broken link building." This batching mentality isn't just useful for BLB.
Said Clark, "We do similar things with other methods, and I believe this holistic approach has greatly improved our outreach campaigns."
Matt Janaway of Marketing Labs points out that it has to be "a win-win for both sides, as most website owners can now see the benefit of changing a link URL to your site, but what's in it for them?"
Janaway suggests being specific in the value-add. "Tactics in the past that have worked well include offering to improve the article or post by adding new high-quality content, offering new content for another post or even sharing the article with your social audience. The more creative your approach is, the higher the chance they will reply to your request!"
Jarrod Miller-Dean of Housecall Pro believes that BLB can be a stepping stone to another value-add, as well. "Use finding broken links on a web page as a segue to pitching guest post opportunities."
Ease of use is one of the best ways to improve your conversion rate on pitching broken Link replacement, according to Axel DeAngelis of NameBounce. "Make it easy for the webmaster to update the page. In the email, include the anchor text, the link itself, and detail on what the page was previously (using archive.org to find out). If you do all of this, there's little reason for them not to take a few minutes to update the link!"
As Akshay Joshi of Amoolya Digital Solutions reminds us, outreach isn't always easy and doesn't always have high conversion rates. Joshi suggests that BLB strategists "get ready for negative responses or no response when you send someone an email about their broken link or suggesting your link to be replaced. Many times you won't receive any response from them or you might get a response saying No to your offer."
Joshi offered a few tips on how to reduce those negative or non-responses: "Be valuable. Research the broken link with Web Archive and create better content than them to increase your chances of replacing that broken link. Never send your link in the first email. Always ask the website owner if he would like to see your link. Always follow up."
"You can send them a first email reporting the broken link and offering your link instead (ask first). The second email can include your link if they agree, or you can follow up, if you receive no response from them." Taking this light-handed approach may increase your response rates over time, according to Joshi.
Aristide Basque of SH1FT reminds us that content fit is one of the key aspects of warm outreach. "Only outreach if you can bring value with a piece of content that is actually a perfect fit. Your success rate depends on how good of a fit it is and how friendly you are in your outreach, don't be salesy." While you may already have something in your content library that fits the bill, creating a piece of content can best hit the mark.
While acknowledging that for 99% of interactions email (when done right) will work just fine, Ashok Sharma of YourteaminIndia offered one pro tip to take personalized, warm outreach the extra mile. "If the website has a phone number or live chat option, call or chat. A real-time conversation might increase your chance of getting backlinks."
With the solid tips above in play, it helps to remember that like any kind of outbound prospecting, hunting BLB opportunities is a numbers game. Two of our experts, Gary Stevens of Hosting Canada and Quincy Smith of Ampjar, stress the importance of having a large enough sample size to boost your overall conversion rate. Said Stevens, "When starting your outreach efforts, this is one of the times where quantity is more important than quality. Most editors are savvy to broken link building efforts and the majority of editors that haven't updated a broken link are neglecting their webpages. When implementing this strategy you need to target a lot of websites to find one with an editor who will appreciate your email."
Smith echoed this advice. "Start with a big list! If you're pitching to less than 100 prospects you run the risk of lots of wasted effort. To combat this, plug big sites from your industry into Ahrefs (for example, if you're in software, go for BIG sites like Toptal, not small personal blogs) and sort the broken pages by number of links and then find relevant topics – broken link building is a numbers game and with a conversion rate of 1-3% the more prospects you have the more links you'll build."
Janja Jovanovic of Vacation Tracker advises digging into your niche using Ahrefs' Broken Link Checker to get the best sample. It will let you "find dead pages on the authoritative sites in your niche. The more people you reach out to, the more links you'll get. It is a numbers game and you need to do research and outreach properly."
Editor's Note: Get a comprehensive look at your backlink strength and referring domains using the Ahrefs Website Audit dashboard. You'll see how backlinks perform over time and get real-time ranking on your overall strategy from their trusted algorithm.
Though the impact of big numbers can work in your favor, many of our experts highlighted the need to prioritize how you dig into your list, taking advantage of the 80/20 rule (the idea that 80% of your success comes from 20% of your efforts.)
Jacob Dayan of Community Tax gave this advice on link organization. "Since prospecting for broken backlinks can get bogged down with spammy sites and is a tedious link building tactic in general, it is critical to have an organized spreadsheet that makes it easy for you to qualify prospects to reach out to." The same holds true for Farasat Khan of IsItWP, who says, "Marketers need to focus on finding authoritative sites for broken links. As broken link building is a time taking process, and focusing on too many less authoritative sites will lead to lesser impact."
How do you know where the quality link opportunities are hiding? You have to do the research, says Lynell Ross of Zivadream. "My biggest recommendation would be to conduct about 2-3 minutes of research on every website prior to sending a broken link alert email. In other words, don't just blindly send generic emails out to every website you come across. Instead, look at traffic trends for the site over the past year, its backlink profile, whether it's actively posting new content, etc."
Says Ross, "At the end of the day, you don't want links from websites that have diminishing traffic, stale content or weak backlink profiles. By doing just a couple minutes of research before, you'll be able to save yourself valuable time and ensure you're not getting backlinks from low authority sites."
There is something telling in the research, adds Andrew Dennis of Page One Power. "Conversion rates for broken link building can be lower since sites that have a lot of broken links often have site owners that are less engaged and less responsive to outreach. It's critical to establish there is a large pool of link prospects associated with a broken link building opportunity before you start contacting websites."
Borislav Ivanov of Best Response Media also analyzes the numbers before outreach to ensure the best impact. "Before redirecting these pages, check out their Google Analytics metrics. It sometimes turns out that these pages did not have enough value and their metrics were too low to waste resources for a redirect."
"Get off the beaten path," when hunting opportunities, offers Irina Nica of HubSpot. Nica reminds us that we may not be the only on providing content in our niche.
With this competition and the increase in BLB practices, Nica recommends prioritizing links where you already have the perfect content in hand. "You can look for different broken outbound links, on different websites, and offer an alternative from your existing bank of content. It requires no new content on your side and it's a great opportunity for other websites to fix their broken outbound links and give their readers a better experience."
Ivan Palii of Sitechecker also asks us to view the problem from another angle: that of the webmaster. "Try to understand what pages are the most valuable (by sales, conversions or traffic) for the website owners. And try to find broken links on these pages at first. Thus, the website owner really will be grateful for you and it increases your chances to get a backlink."
Once you've done this, make sure that the link you're chasing has ROI to back up your efforts. Joshua Ballard of Paradox Marketing says, "If you think of this in terms of a funnel, then you are investing in the top of the funnel (with staff time) to find opportunities that will help your outreach team close the opportunity later on. If however, you keep digging into sites that are: not authoritative enough, not related enough or generally unattainable then it is a waste of time and will make your cost per link acquisition untenable."
Ballard offered an example from personal experience. "I once spoke to someone who tried to replace a USDA page about mold legislation, for a furniture movers website. Even though they built a great resource that was in every right probably as good as the version they had found on the Wayback Machine, no one they reached out to was going to replace a link that was to a government website to a small business website."
Steve Foley of Everything But Stromboli suggests that these approaches and the lists they create have to go too deep. For Foley, it boils down to two main criteria:
1. Relevant sites you want links from.
2. Sites from #1 that have broken links.
"Once you have that list," says Foley, "research the sites and prioritize acquiring links based on which would be most beneficial to your site."
With a growing world of websites out there, where do you begin to compile a list? The answer is closer than you think: right within your own niche. Says Cedrick Capati of Spiralytics, "Know your competitors and check whether they have broken links if they have the fill that gap for their linkers." Zalan Taller of Morningscore also likes this approach and the ease of using a tool for comparing your web offerings. "Start using a backlink checker tool that gives a complete overview of both your and your competitor's full backlink profile."
Irena Zobniów of Insightland recommends the Ahrefs "site explorer" tool for this purpose. "Throw in the address of your competitor's website or service with similar themes. Then use the 404 filter. This way you will find potential sources of links that you can get for your website."
One other way to organize your competitor searches, says Stuart Cooke of Levity Digital, is for those who have made changes. "Look for competitors who have recently rebranded. They are likely to have made 301 redirects from their old domain to the new one. If there were any errors made during this process there will be broken link opportunities. Look for pages/posts that you have relevant content for that can replace the broken link."
Olivian-Claudiu Stoica of 123FormBuilder reminds us that while competitors are ripe for the picking, you still need to add value. "Analyze your competitor's broken backlinks, and where applicable, prepare a (better) content piece that those site owners can use instead."
How many competitors should you research? The sphere might be larger than you think, says Jonathan Aufray of Growth Hacker. "Start by creating a list in a spreadsheet of the 20 or 50 blogs/websites in your industry where you'd like to get a link from. Then, with an online broken link checker, find the broken links in these websites and write them all down in your spreadsheet." Now that you've produced a large enough sample, organize for impact. "Prioritize the anchor texts with relevant keywords for your website. Find content within your site related to these anchor texts."
Broken Backlink checking is a time-consuming process, but there are great tools out there to make the process faster.
Levi Olmstead of LeviOlmstead.com likes Ahrefs' Broken Link Building Tool. "Instead of running pages or sites through an SEO tool to find 404s, you can use Ahrefs' broken link building feature to search the entire web for keywords. This helps find content you've already produced that has broken link building potential."
Alistair Dodds of Ever Increasing Circles recommends using a link checker and the Wayback Machine in tandem to generate great replacement content based on competitors one at a time. "Enter your domain then select competing domains and pick one that shares high common keywords." Using the other tips referred to throughout this report and pairing them with You can now look to create content assets that surpass the original content and reach out to all the sites linking to the 404 page offering your new content as a better resource to link to and replace.
Maggie Simmons of Max Effect Marketing also loves the Wayback Machine "to check out how the was content before it got 404." Simmons uses that info to "create content similar to that content and make it better than the original one. Reach out the webmaster with the best reachout template and get your content submitted. Happy broken link Building!"
Another tool our experts liked was a Google Chrome plugin called "Check My Links. "Tino Jaimes of Sunrise House Buyers TX says "Once installed, you can run a search on any webpage and in seconds will identify any broken link (if there are any)."
Kerry Sherin of North Star Inbound likes Pitchbox for BLB management. Sherin recommends BLB strategists use the outreach tool to "manage and run your campaigns with little to no management."
Sameer Somal of Blue Ocean Global Tech in addition to Ahrefs tools, Soman likes the Moz Broken Link Builder guide. "Start from keywords," Somal recommends, "researching and identifying the keywords that showcase your website's service area or interest."
Libby Fischer of Whetstone Education likes the above tools, and also suggested SEMRush for research. "Many times you share an audience with your competitors, so seeing where their content is linked to across the web can give you a good idea of what your audience is reading. Once you determine these sources, use link tracking tools like Moz or SEMRush to identify broken links that you can replace." Of course, as we know this requires some patience and finesse. "The difficult part is convincing publishers to replace the broken link with yours. Try different approaches, email subject lines, and methods of communication. Test what works best, but don't be afraid to try new tactics."
Editor's note: Want to get an idea of where you stand in your niche? Use Moz's Competitor Overview dashboard to get granular data on how your rank and domain authority stack up.
Good tips and good tools then come together in helping you build good processes for the long haul. To get started, Yoav Bernstein of YB Marketing says, "I'd start with going over it and implement the strategy in one campaign that you run, as you'll learn mainly from experience, so the best thing to do is to start implementing it right away." Bernstein recommended this Backlinko guide for developing a solid strategy.
McCall Robison of Best Company suggests taking the long view of this tactic. "Don't get discouraged broken link building doesn't work right away. Just like with any outreach tactic, you're not going to have a high conversion rate. For broken link building, a 5-10% conversion rate is typically a great success. You can't try broken link building once or twice and wait for responses, thinking those sites will follow through. Broken link building is better when done on a larger scale so you have a better chance of success."
Building out a schedule for this process is a good way to stay on track, says Robison. "One way I like to broken link build is to schedule one week each quarter to dedicate to broken link building. Because broken link building requires some research and likely some content writing, dedicating specific time for it each quarter ensures you are doing quality broken link building." The benefits are in the commitment, according to Robison. "Since going about broken backlink building the way I have, I have had more success with this method than I have with outreach, unlinked mentions, and a few other link building strategies combined."
Robison summed it up best: "Like with most SEO strategies, broken link building is a marathon, not a race. Be patient, do your research, and create quality content people will want to link to. If you're doing that, then that 5-10% conversion rate is likely doable."
Getting and staying on target can feel overwhelming when you first start digging for BLB opportunities. To bring your efforts into focus, a few of our experts reminded us to get back to basics – keywords and content.
Says Minuca Elena, keeping it relevant within your niche and within the original content can pay better dividends: "For example, if they are linking to a post about Facebook ads and you ask them to link instead to a post about Twitter ads, although both posts are about social media ads, your conversion rate will drop because people tend to be consistent. They will just search for a top post that talks about the same topic as the previous article they recommended." Like many, Elena recommends focusing on relevant content, in order to obtain as many links as possible.
Jacob Phillips of Intuitive Digital also suggests keeping content close to home. "For example, if your landing page content is about pet insurance, try to find broken links about pet insurance. The webmaster is much more likely to replace an old broken link with your link if your content is similar to the content the broken link was pointing toward originally."
Stay as close to the particulars of the original content as possible, says Brooks Manley. "Make sure your replacement content is hyper-relevant. For instance, though they're in the same field, very few people will be willing to link to a post on Oak trees when they were previously linking to content on Maples."
Bart van der Meer of Klik Proces says, when taking care with your targeting, BLB "is a great tactic to get backlinks from major websites that normally would never link to you. If you find a link, make sure your content matches the broken link perfectly before you reach out and point out why your content is the perfect replacement."
Venchito Tampon of SharpRocket asks us to consider the audience when conducting outreach and planning replacement content "Target your content assets to a linkable audience to get the most number of backlinks acquired every month. Linkable audiences include veterans, 'going green' enthusiasts, parents, students, people with disabilities, and teachers." This can drive traffic and engagement.
For Aditya Sheth of Venngage, it largely comes down to quality. "Make sure you're pitching a piece of content that's 10x better than the broken link if you want to improve your success rate with broken link replacement."
However, if you have a small niche, and there isn't enough to go around, Amit Raj of Amitdigitalmarketing.com suggests you "niche up" to find better linking opportunities. Raj also recommends researchers "go a level deeper. i.e. each broken link may have a bunch of URLs linking to it. Some of those URLs may be broken, and have its link profiles and so on. You could sometimes continue several levels deeper."
If it's linkable and evergreen, it's very likely to get better attention from webmasters and domain owners, say some of our experts, including Nathan Wade of WealthFit, who says, "You'll need to ensure the page you want to replace it with is evergreen and will not become a 404 page in the future." Nick Schäferhoff of WebsiteSetup.org instructs us to focus on creating "useful and 'linkable' content before you even think about outreach." says Schäferhoff, "Once you have the best piece of content on the selected topic, it will be way easier to get links without feeling pushy. Statistics, case studies, tutorials, and expert opinions can make your content more link-worthy."
While the beginning of your BLB journey can feel overwhelming at times, breaking the process down to its essential elements, and employing the great tips offered by our experts can make the process feel far more manageable. Plus, you'll be getting guidance from excellent data than can help you refine and build your own content library with pieces your audience will take great value from. Combine this with the power of BLB to increase your reputation and traffic, and you have a lot of reasons to commit to this viable strategy as you improve your offering.

Send Matterport your best scans to feature on the Gallery & in the press!!!
Hi folks,
This time last year we started a major campaign to hunt down and find some of the most interesting and unique models that had ever been created using the Matterport camera. This was originally the brain child of Matterport's co-founder Matt Bell. He felt it would be a good way to show off the tremendous artistry and fascinating places captured. I was tasked with being the curator (something I considered an honor) and at the time must have looked at thousands of models (no joke) that were submitted to us. From there, we seeded the beginning content for the Matterport Gallery and Matterport VR app. Admittedly I may have missed a few gems, but if so, please re-submit! =)
Show us your best Spaces!
Today we continue to hunt for the great models and I highly encourage people to submit their favorite scans for us to consider. You can easily do this by submitting your models on this FORM. While we do get lots of submissions, every few weeks when we batch upload new curations, you will find new gems in the gallery. Also, something we've done is surface really unique spaces to publishers so MSPs can get some press, too! Last year we helped get lots of MSP models featured across newspapers - one really popular model being that of Kendall Jenner's home which we got published to 15 newspapers! Here's the thing - we want to promote really exciting models and help generate publicity for MSPs that are doing great work.
The one thing that I have found incredible is the way our tech can take you to far away lands and places you would never imagine visiting from the bus that Rosa Parks was on to the T-Rex exhibit at the Smithsonian to Turkish palaces! Please help us grow this library and collection of places so we can build bridges between countries and cultures.
Happy Friday! Everyone have a great weekend and next week, start sending us your favorite models again!
Yours truly,
ps - You can read Matt's blog post about the inception of the Gallery.

and Delivery of your Product. Throughout this essay we will be juxtaposing the different aspects of the parts above and showing how each of them relate to capitalism and communism and how each of the essential parts can be shown differently through both capitalism and communism. Business varies extremely when in different environments and these two environments are drastically different and the most different environments that are possible. This essay will help understand how drastic the differences
Capitalism, the foundation of the American economy, is a system characterized by the privatization of the means of production. This system includes wage labor, competitive market, private sector employment, and the overall goal of gaining a profit. Capitalism, though relatively normalized and seen as the standard practice in the economic systems of the world, is a system that gives power to the wealthy and strips away at the proletariat class' ability to rise in the social and economic hierarchy
Imagining Post-Capitalism Will Revolution get it there? "Does Capitalism Have A Future?" is a scholarly book written by five scholars in an attempt to explore the possibility of a future collapse of global capitalism and proposes a hypothesis for the possibility of post-capitalism. Wallerstein, who is one of the scholars who wrote the book, argues that certain social movements of our contemporaneous days will create a transition to a post-capitalist world. He adds that the world's contemporary
Capitalism can be many different things, but it is basically an economic system that is based off these three things; wage labour or working for a wage, private ownership or control of the means of production, and production for exchange and profit. With capitalism comes many characteristics to it, such as capital accumulation, competitive markets, and wage labor. These are the central characteristics of capitalism. It is important to recognize the term Laissez-faire which in French literally means
Introduction Capitalism has never been dead and will be here for at least the next century. In a world where the market is filled with imperfections, it is in order for the government to interfere to restore order in the market. Increased concerns over the 2008 market collapse prompted the government's to take charge of their responsibility and act. Capitalism is a system of government that favours individual growth with minimal government interference. The opposite of capitalism is communism, where
CAPITALISM Capitalism is the result of a process in which economic activities and relationships that carry these mechanisms have been generating increasingly complex operation. PHASES OF CAPITALISM The origins of capitalism Since the sixteenth century, some European countries such as England and the Netherlands favored the development of commercial activities in order to obtain larger quantities of precious metals (gold, silver), it was believed that the wealth of nations depended on Accumulation
Capitalism Capitalism is the economic system in which production, distribution and, exchange of goods takes place for profit by people's own interest. In capitalism, private owners control over industry or market with none or very low interference by government. Capitalism provides right to express their freedom by making decision about their goods and labor. It gives right or freedom to choose what to produce, how to produce and, price of that product. Producer will decide that for how much he or
3: A number of writers suggest that the capitalism of the middle to late twentieth century is markedly different from previous phases. How do they describe this particular iteration of the mode of production? What role, if any, do images, spectacle, ideology, machines, or computers play? In his book, Postmodernism or the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism, Fredric Jameson drawing from the work of another Marxist theoretician Ernest Mandel, divides capitalism into three distinct periods post "the 'original'
The Debate of Capitalism The theory of capitalism is defined by Merriam-Webster as "a way of organizing an economy so that the things that are used to make and transport products (such as land, oil, factories, ships, etc.) are owned by individual people and companies rather than by the government." Many people associate this ideology with the father of capitalism, Adam Smith. His views on economy are labeled as laissez-faire, which is a policy that requires things, such as companies, to take
argue against capitalism, because capitalism in the long run is morally unjustified. I will start off by explaining what capitalism is, and then I will explain how capitalism affects us and lastly I will conclude why capitalism is not morally justifiable. Morality is about primary making the right choices. Now the key word here is, right. We have to make sure if the system is the right system for all of us as a whole and not only if it benefits only some. To start off, capitalism is an "economic

Florida is one of the most interesting states in America. The weather is a big part of how the state is, and because it is warm all-year-round, it's one of the states that have great tourist turnouts every year. If you are planning to go down the Sunshine state anytime soon, you'll need to know some information in order to make the most out of your stay. Here are six Florida facts:
There are 130 airports in the state.
You may wonder why there are so many airports worldwide, but that's because Florida is a tourist destination first and foremost. And to make travel to the state more accessible, the one hundred and thirty airports majorly help for convenience. If you are asked what Florida facts you know, you can easily spout off that it has more than a hundred airports. Airports are both international and local, and Orlando International Airport is one of the busiest any time of the year.
The two most popular airports are Miami International Airport and Orlando International Airport. Foot traffic for visitors each year from both airports amount to at least 84 million, with the latter beating out the former just by a couple of hundred of thousands. There are also exceptional airports littered around the state like Tampa International, Jacksonville International, and Fort Lauderdale International.
Florida has the longest coastline in the USA.
It's no surprise for many that Florida is the top beach destination in the USA, and its sprawling coastline is a testament to it. In fact, the state has the longest coastline at 1,197 statute miles. That's just shy of 2,000 km. The coastline is peppered with parks, beachfront properties, resorts, etc. of course, and in some areas aren't touched by human development at all.
More than 800 miles of that 1,197 coastline miles are accessible beaches for people to enjoy. Although there are lots of national parks in the state, there is actually just one national scenic trail in the entire state. State forests are also quite the fixture in Florida's landscape, so if you're one for hiking, trekking, and other outdoor activities, then the state has a lot to offer!
The state is the boating and fishing capital of the world.
With a sprawling coastline and the Atlantic ocean facing the state, Florida has become the world's boating and fishing capital. The number of registered boats in the state surpasses any other state in the country, and apparently the rest of the world as well. Yachts and other fishing vessels are parked in proximity to the Florida Keys, the vast Atlantic ocean, and the Gulf.
With the presence of so many boats, it's no wonder that fishing is the state's unofficial pastime. Fishing sites are aplenty, and tourists can even make the most of their stay by fishing for their meals. Some great sites for fishing are Jacksonville, which is situated between St. John's river and the Atlantic Ocean, Daytona Beach with the Halifax River for freshwater fish, and the Florida Keys, which is basically the gold standard for fishing locations.
It has the most number of golf courses than any other state.
Since Florida is one of the states that has great weather all year long, it's become the destination of golfers around the country and the world. The plains in the state offer great golf courses – in fact, in the US, Florida has the most number of golf courses. To date, there are at least 1,250 golf courses in the state.
Jacksonville is the largest city in America in terms of area.
Jacksonville, the most populated area in Florida, is also the largest city in terms of area in the contiguous USA. The city of Sitka in Alaska is the largest if we're talking about the whole country. Jacksonville has at least 1,935 kilometers square in land area.
Florida is named after a feast for flowers.
The state of Florida is named after the Spanish Feast of Flowers called Pascua Florida or basically Easter. The state was originally discovered by Ponce De Leon, who promptly called it La Florida. It was first seen in April of 1513 when the New World discovery was at its height. Today, Florida is the third most populous state in the entirety of the USA. As of writing, the state has at least 21 million residents.
Visit the Sunshine State to learn more of its roots
With these facts in mind, you now at least have a small yet significant knowledge of Florida. Make the most out of your vacation into the Sunshine state by bringing sunscreen, wide-brimmed hats, and airy clothes. Although it's almost close to impossible for a vacation right about now, that doesn't mean you can't plan one in the next year or so! Have a great vacation ahead!

Is it possible to create an expansive and engaging full-length sonic journey around just four chords? If those chords are taken from the work of a master like Claude Debussy and subjected to the tender ministrations of an artist as capable as London based composer & sound artist Ed Hamilton, then the answer is a resounding "Yes!" and that is exactly what we find on Hamilton's second outing on Futuresequence.
"On Arabesque, Hamilton takes the first four chords of Debussy's 'Arabesque #1' and subjects them to various manipulations, reductions, elongations and strangulations. Continuing where 'Sketches For Skomer' left off, the resultant sounds are meticulously arranged, this time creating elongated compositions that envelope the listener in loops of minimal electronic tones and ambient backdrops, carefully aligned into repetitive melodic phrases." – (from the Futuresequnce site)
What makes the album so interesting and absorbing are the inventive juxtapositions of acoustic and electronic instrumentation that create a wide variety of textures and fluid patterns. Just as an arabasque is an ornamental design consisting of intertwined flowing lines, Hamilton weaves tendrils and volutes of sound into seamless arrangements that mesmerize and delight the ear. Strings, piano, percussion, and voice all float on viscous, oscillating ambient waves to create sounds that are alternately beguiling, contemplative, and even majestic.
Sometimes the transformation happens in the same piece as on the opening track 'Rhaeadrau for RM' which begins with what sounds like a decelerated music box which slowly decays before blossoming forth into string like swells. This pattern is reprised somewhat in the following track, 'Blue Lagoon', before a sunny warmth appears in 'Cirrostratus' by way of harmonium sounds and jangling percussion in a slightly off kilter marching cadence. This sets up the gorgeous centerpieces of the album, 'Arabasque #1' and 'Waterlog'. Hamilton then brings the proceedings to a conclusion with the crackling textures of 'Rake, Migrate' and the ethereal 'A Year in a Day'.
The idea of elongating and manipulating classic pieces of music to create ambient soundscapes appears to be becoming more popular. Other recent noteworthy examples are Freudvoll und Lindvoll by Sima Kim (on Dronarivm) and Ganymede by Danny Clay (on Hibernate Recordings). Hamilton's Arabesque demonstrates that this is a fruitful, if not fallow, field in which to work and it is a delightful recording.
Arabesque will be available on vinyl, but note that it is a crowd-funded pre-order which will proceed only after a minimum number is reached. Pre-orders of the digital version can placed on the Bandcamp site. Links are provided directly below.

Featured track: 'Arabesque no. 1':
Note: If like me you were not completely familiar with the original piece by Debussy, here is a recording accompanied by a wonderful video visualizing the musical patterns:

Westboro Baptist Church Gets On Taylor Swift's Back..
Taylor Swift has been targeted left and right, and the most famous of them was the time when she was on stage to receive her award during the MTV VMAs event back in 09′.
That did drum up some pretty good media buffs like the paparazzi, who was all over that like a group of flies to 10 day old open box of "rice o roni" that has been sitting out in the hot blazing sun.
But this time it is starting to get rather personal, Swift now seems to be on the list.
And no this is not a guest list for a party, but instead this is like a "target list" which comes from the least expected individuals to go after a celeb in full force.
So it seems she has gotten under the skin of a 'certain' religious congregation, and it has been hitting the social media scene rather fast.
Apparently the target has came from the Westboro Baptist Church, which is located in Topeka, Kansas.
So from what is known about this Church based establishment, is that these people are some type of "anti-intorlerant" group that does not want to accept individuals like Swift into their town.
The thing is they have labeled Swift, and they even brought up the fact that she has a lot of followers of fans.
So they are basically saying, is that they see her as a poster child for the "young whores".
The Church even lashed out further, and took the phrase out of the good book and said..
"Stop fornicating ladies, and obey God", and they directed that statement directly to her millions of fan followers.
Wow the Westboro Church is making some strong statements about Swift, so I wonder what will Swift say about the "backlashing" that they have been dishing out to her.. But the Westboro Church is also known as a KKK faction-linked group, but they also try to uphold religious values at the same time..
I remember seeing a documentary on "The Texas Chain-saw Massacre" movie when it first came out back in 74′.
And when it first hit the theaters, just about every religious congregation was in complete "uproar" about it.
They claim the movie was way too violent, they felt that it should have never even been produced and created, and they said that it was sexist in ideas, and that the idea of a crazed killer running around chasing and trying to hack up a girl was just perverted and twisted.
Now I watched "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (the remake I never saw the original, I only saw a documentary video of the original).
And from what I liked about the movie was the suspense, because here you have a town that knows about the killer that lives within it.
(Below Is An Example Not From The Movie, The Basic Depiction Of Attractive Females Viewed In A Twisted Evil Faction Or Group Like The "Westboro Church")
Then you have let's say some young adults on vacation just driving through town, and their van or car gets a flat tire or something.
They then have to either get another tire, and they will more in likely have to roam through town to find a tire shop right?
And usually one or two of them in the group may see or hear something usual, LOL that sets up for the story right there. Because it might interest them to check out more of the town, but the town people might not be to friendly to want just anybody wandering around.
They might then run into the town drunk, that just so happens to be walking by while they seek out a gas station to get a tire from after they were rudely instructed to do by a store clerk in a nearby mini-mart store.
The town drunk might mention to them that they are in grave danger, and that they need to leave now, and not look back. That maybe true but they can leave only when they have the tire they need first.
So you see how that all lines up for a good story..
From there they see or learn something else while in town that they shouldn't know about, now someone in town sabotages the motor in the car while the kids are looking for a tire shop.
They managed to get the tire, that they take from the gas station because it was empty inside.
So now they are definitely feeling unwelcome, and they think maybe the crazed drunk is right that they just came across.
That's when they hear a very loud church bell in the distant sound off ringing..
Then people all of a sudden run indoors and lock themselves inside while the "the killer" is dispatched to go after the kids and take them out, and yes it will be very gruesome and violent in the way the killer chooses to do his work.
And lastly the visiting group has 5 pretty girls in it, and as the scene plays on a woman screams out from her bedroom window.. "Kill the unclean whores!" LOL and the thing is they don't even know these girls, so they assume all types of things about them.
Now if a movie like that was out back in the 70's, your "classic slash" flick it would get hammered by religious congregations no doubt.
But today it's like a dime a dozen that you have movie like that, and celebrities today are more likely to be criticized for what they wear or say etc.. But LOL today not too many people jump the gun on stuff like that, because we see these things everyday on t.v. or hear celebrity news on the radio etc…
But I don't judge people myself, because they way I see it..
Doesn't God judge us? And not others?..
I don't think the Westboro Church, has thought about that clearly? Because the thing that they seem to be promoting, is pure hate. They have been making statements about anybody that is of any color, race, sex, sexual preference and creed. So My question is what makes them better then anybody else?.. Plus they are aligned with the KKK for God's sake, so how can they judge anybody LOL.
So maybe before they say that about Taylor Swift, they should get to know her at least first before making assumptions.. But that's not gonna happen, because they already passed judgement on her LOL. Man people need to stop trying to judge others and mind their own business is what I say..

Or needy meds site is - http://www.needymeds.orgI know things seem impossible right now but please dont give up! Tomorrow is a new day and maybe things won't seem as bleak. When is the last time you had your Vitamin D checked? I was pretty low and found myself very depressed but after getting my levels back to normal helped me considerably.Please take care and let us know how you are doing!
Your post is extremely moving. You really need to talk to someone that can listen to you intently. It's awful to hear someone talk of dying. Life is so valuable.
I totally understand that you're certainly depressed with facing such a difficult situation. I don't like to advise counselling as I'm not a big advocate of it.
I hope you find the strength in a couple of days to put a plan together to deal with your current health crisis.
If the Dr.s and Hospital you're with "sucked" then you need to find somewhere new that you can get competent help.
The financial burden is I'm sure a big part of your stress. I have no advise there, but maybe family members could offer some temporary assistance.
No matter how difficut things are right now, things will get better. You must somehow find the strength to put a plan together. Good luck, prayers coming your way.
I am so sorry that you are feeling so low, after reading your post and you mentioning that you have 3 children, I hope that you can come through this funk for their sake. I can't offer you any suggestions about medications as I live in Canada, but what I can suggest is to keep posting your feelings on this site and you will always get someone that can offer you some words of support that will hopefully help you through this difficult time.
I was admitted to the hospital 6 or 7 times last year with a suspected bowel obstruction, and each time I got depressed, (which is normal, being in the hospital is awful) but once I was at home for a few days, I snapped out of it. Give yourself some time, and if you are still feeling really low, try and make some calls so that you can talk to a professional to get some help.
Hope some of this might help, try and keep your chin up Lynn, you have people rooting for you.

Randy was absolutely great! He really went above and beyond to be accommodating and make our bachelorette/wine tasting a success. We had a special request and he was kind enough to make it happen without trying to gouge us for more money. Speaking of which, how can you go wrong with no hidden fees? He was the only quote I received that included absolutely everything (except tip) AND he offered the best price! The bus is very comfortable and clean, there's room for you to bring your own beverages, and there's a tv that you can watch movies on. This was a great experience and I would not hesitate to use this service again myself or recommend it to a friend.

I am so incredibly excited to share that The Animal Album and The Animal Book are available NOW! There are lots of places you can find both of these things so here's a handy dandy link to find the album, and a handy dandy link to find the book. I am happy for you to purchase, stream, or order the physical book from any of these places, but especially grateful if you order from my Bandcamp page where you get a free album download with book purchase and I can even sign your book if you like!

New piece – "Where are their brothers?"
Last Saturday, I premiered a new piece in the chicken coop of the Warren St. Marks Community Garden. I was invited to be a part of this Garden Theater fest by curator (and good friend) Emerie Snyder. Emerie assembled a variety of artists to create and perform site-specific pieces on the theme of "overlooked details," and it was a really magical event. I was so proud to be a part of it.

Home Again – New Single Hits the Digital Shelves!
I am so excited to announce that my new single, "Home Again," has been released out into the world! The track is from my forthcoming album, The Animal Album, and is a dedication to my dog, Corky. She was my friend when I was an adolescent, a gay kid feeling lonely and scared about where I would fit in 1980's Houston, TX. I still love her so much, and she saw me through such a difficult time.

The Animal Book Exists in the Physical Realm!
Yesterday I ran by luke kurtis' apartment in the West Village to pick up the proof of The Animal Book. He and I have been working on the book together for quite some time. Well, he has been doing the working part and I have been doing the "OHHH LAAAA LAAAAA IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL" part. It's here. It's done. Praise be to whomever you choose to praise, if anyone. Aside from one or two more adjustments, this mofo is DONE! Continue reading →
30 Days to Wellness Recap
How it began
Back in January, I saw that nutritionist Marc S. Wood and personal trainer Jamie Robinson were holding a contest to give away a free month of their 30 Days to Wellness program. The winner would have two sessions a week with each of these guys for a month, and all that was required to enter was to answer a handful of questions. Continue reading →
Performance, Book, Album, and Podcast Updates!
Out of town gigs, book/album design, and podcast developments! It's been a busy week or so, and it's not slowing down any time soon!
I protested a lot this weekend. There was a bull riding event at Madison Square Garden, and there were a bunch of activists who went out to demonstrate for three nights. It was extremely cold, and the crowd was pretty brutal. Lots of typical "mmmm bacon" type comments flying around, which we are all used to, but especially at the end of the day on Sunday, the activists were subjected to some hyper aggression from these cowboy dudes in the form of being charged by a man on a horse (on 34th street in Manhattan, no less), and I was grabbed by one of the guys and thrown on the ground. Literally. Continue reading →
Resolved: Liberation Pledge
I have been contemplating taking The Liberation Pledge for quite some time. On one hand it seems like something that could alienate people from me (and from veganism), but on the other, it's very, very difficult for me to sit at a table where someone is consuming an animal without saying something, and silence = death. Right? In this case the death is quite literal and undeniably present. Continue reading →


text: beachhappy 0 Posted September 20, 2008 Can anyone make a suggestion for an all-inclusive resort in the Riviera Maya/Cancun area? I am looking for a kid-friendly resort that has a nice beach. In addition, I want to get married on the beach and we are expecting 40-50 guests and a wedding party of 10-12 (Most packages I have looked have 20 as their largest guest number.) I understand you pay more for any amount of people over that but do they have an area large enough for our group size? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Today, we have the best possible equipment and techniques for video, sound and lighting. So why is it that AV at trade shows still manages to miss the target on occasion? Nevil Bounds muses on AV and its pitfalls on the show floor.

Terry Miranda is the CEO and creative lead at UAE-based Lighthouse Productions. Originally specialising in lighting design, the company has evolved to become one of the region's leading production design companies, offering turnkey event solutions on a giant scale.

Fitness Trainer Emily Skye Welcomes Her First Child: 'So Happy to Finally Meet My Gorgeous Girl'
Baby Mia weighed in at 7 lbs., 7 oz.
This article originally appeared on People.com.
The wait is finally over!
Fitness trainer Emily Skye welcomed her first child, a daughter named Mia Elise, on Monday.
"So happy to finally meet my gorgeous girl Mia Elise Redmond," Skye, 32, shared on Instagram.
Baby Mia weighed in at 7 lbs., 7 oz., and arrived just before noon on Monday in their hometown of Gold Coast, Queensland in Australia.
Skye's partner, Declan Redmond, also shared a photo of Skye and Mia, writing, "The two loves of my life @emilyskyefit & Mia Elise Redmond."
The glowing mom added, "@recdedmond & I having constant love explosions!!"
Skye carried Mia to full term, and was growing impatient while waiting for her to arrive. On Sunday, she shared a video of her "Bikini Baby Belly Boogie," an attempt to dance the baby out.
"This poor little girl has a nut bag as a mother, no wonder she doesn't want to get out!" Skye joked on Instagram. "C'MON baby girl don't be shy!! Sure, I'm as crazy as they come but I promise I'll love you as much as the universe and there will NEVER be a dull moment with @recdedmond and me as parents!"
Skye learned over the 40 weeks of pregnancy that things don't always go according to plan. She had intended to stay active throughout the nine months, but had terrible morning sickness during her first trimester, and then was too lethargic to exercise the rest of the way.
She emphasized that women shouldn't feel pressured to work out, and should listen to their bodies.
"Pregnancy is only short term. You shouldn't beat yourself up over something that doesn't last long," Skye previously told PEOPLE. "The most important thing is to do what's best for you and your baby."

the film keeps its animation simple and its story lines clear, which makes it reliable fare for the 10-and-younger set. The only disappointment, given the subject, is that it's not a full-on musicalby Neil Genzlinger [NY Times ]
intermittently diverting as it may be, the movie bears all the earmarks of a cobbled-together, made-by-committee product, poorly aimed at its tween-and-younger target audience in look, tone, music and storyby Jane Horwitz [Washington Post ]

Yesterday 4-8:30Middle to the end of the outgoing...1 cocktail 4lbs on a white 1 1/4 ounce Atom3 12" mini Fluke on a white bucktai. Could have caught more if I tried. They were all over...I've never seen anything quite like it...Loads of bait in the water...Sand Eels & Spearing.The mini Fluke were literally chasing the Sand Eels right up onto the beach. Several times I saw them come right to the surface in 2 feeet of water.Busted some clown trying to keep a very small Porgette.Told him it was too small and he looked at me like I had three heads. Didn't understand english...He understood real well when I took my cellphone out of my tackle bag and made a phantom DEC call..The Porgette went back in the water and within 10-20 minutes 3 carloads of guys left the beach. I'm sure with buckets of mini Porgies and Fluke.It was funny to see how fast world traveled from one clan to the next that the DEC was called.Wish I had brought my camera.

DEAR DR. BLONZ: We've begun offering nonfat frozen yogurt bars as a snack for our child. The package says there are only 90 calories and, of course, no fat. The package also says "no preservatives," but the ingredient list includes a number of gels and gums, along with polysorbate 80 and carrageenan. If these aren't preservatives, what are they? Are they OK for our 7-year-old?
DEAR F.F.: None of the ingredients you list are preservatives. The gels and gums are thickeners, and the polysorbate 80 and carrageenan are emulsifiers designed to keep the yogurt mixture from separating while it freezes. All these components keep the nonfat flavored yogurt from turning rock-solid at freezer temperatures.
These treats usually provide about 100 milligrams of calcium and a small amount of protein. They won't provide the healthful phytonutrients found in a good piece of fruit, but they do represent a good alternative to chips, baked goods or candies. Even so, why not have a snack that's a win-win by making your own bars with fresh fruit and yogurt? You can find an assortment of recipes online, so look for one that appeals to you and your child.
DEAR DR. BLONZ: Is it reasonable to use antacids as a calcium supplement?
DEAR P.R.: Calcium-based antacids tend to contain calcium carbonate, along with flavorings, colorings and a sweetener. And only about 40 percent of the weight of the calcium carbonate is actually calcium. That means a 500-milligram calcium carbonate antacid will only provide 200 milligrams of calcium, which equates to 20 percent of the daily value for this mineral.
If you're considering such an antacid as a supplement, don't overdo it, especially around mealtime. The first stage of digestion requires an acid environment to begin the separation of foods into their individual nutrients. The excessive use of antacids can make your upper digestive tract alkaline, and that can mess with normal digestion.
As for bone health — presumably what you're hoping to boost — remember that it takes more than calcium to make bones. Although a bone is about 90 percent calcium by weight, other minerals such as magnesium, phosphorous, boron and silicon are needed. Vitamin D also is integral to the health of our bones, so be sure to have that nutrient in the mix.
For these reasons, food should be your first choice as a source of calcium. Aside from dairy products, calcium can be found in dark green vegetables, such as broccoli, kale, collards and arugula; legumes, such as soybeans and garbanzo beans; almonds; and fruits such as figs and apricots. Finally, aside from the calcium and other bone-building nutrients in your diet, it takes an active lifestyle and weight-bearing exercise to encourage the body to keep its bones strong.

still's disease
Also known as systemic-onset juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and systemic-onset juvenile chronic arthritis. Still's disease presents with systemic (bodywide) illness including high intermittent fever, a salmon-coloured skin rash, swollen lymph glands, enlargement of the liver and spleen, and inflammation of the lungs (pleuritis) and around the heart (pericarditis). The arthritis may not be immediately apparent but it does appear in time and may persist after the systemic symptoms are gone. Still's disease, adult-onset: (see still's disease.) although still's disease was first described in children, it is known to occur in adults.
