The Voice of Corporate Finance
Leadenhall Capital Partners LLP is a London based investment manager with over $1.8Bn of AUM wholly focused on investing in insurance linked investments portfolios for institutional investors. Established in 2008, Leadenhall is a joint venture between an international Lloyd's of London underwriter of insurance and reinsurance, the Amlin Group, and a highly experienced management team. Amlin, headquartered in the UK, is a major London market participant with a presence at Lloyd's of London and offices in key reinsurance hubs such as Bermuda, Zurich and Singapore.
Leadenhall Capital Partners offers dedicated funds and managed accounts which give institutional investors access to both life and non-life insurance linked investments; through its non-life strategies Leadenhall offers its investors access to pure reinsurance risk through investments which have exposure to property losses from extreme natural catastrophes (major hurricanes and earthquakes) and other insurable risks (e.g. marine risk). Its life strategies provide investors with the opportunity to access returns from the life insurance linked asset class, which mostly focus on mortality and morbidity risks.
Investors benefit from the attractive returns of the sector, whilst diversifying their risks from the traditional capital markets. Many instruments, such as cat bonds and private placements of collateralised reinsurance, are used to transfer insurance linked risk to the capital markets; Leadenhall uses all of them to ensure liquidity, profitability, diversification and growth.
Leadenhall's team has significant insurance capital markets experience gained at Swiss Re, Aon Benfield Securities & Guy Carpenter, with John Wells, the Chairman, and Luca Albertini, the CEO/CIO having a combined experience of over 55 years in the industry.

Review of the city's recently passed budget, including operating budget highlights, investments in infrastructure, rental inspections, code enforcements, property tax levy and historic tax credits for the redevelopment of Peoria's downtown were among the topics discussed Tuesday afternoon by Peoria City Manager Patrick Urich and about 50 REALTORS®.
The event was organized by the Peoria Area Association of REALTORS® (PAAR).
REALTOR® Jeff Kolbus, Downtown Development Council board member, introduced Urich, who provided REALTORS® with information on community programs and future initiatives, said Local Government Affairs Director Kristie Engerman.
Also, Urich explained how REALTORS® could play an important role in the city's and the region's future before he answered questions from the audience. The REALTORS® shared concerns with property taxes, inner city neighborhoods and schools directly impacting the local real estate market. All agreed continuing and increasing the collaborative efforts between the city and the PAAR were important for everyone.

Fully working PRIMO A64, very rare HUNGARIAN design from 1984. Only around 6000 were manufactured.
Power supply was reconditioned by switching out old capacitors, also a composite video cable was added to the power supply with RCA connector for easier connection to a TV or composite monitor.
Middle picture shows an intermediate state of the inside, now the UHF tuner is re-conected and working, but only on older TV-s. On newer LCD tv-s the signal is very weak, that's why the composite cable was added to the power supply.

|1989 (original)
|Single-player or multiplayer (up to 4 players)
The Kick Off franchise is a series of football simulation computer games, In 1988 Dino Dini was hired to code a top down football game from a Steve Screech idea[1]. in 1989 Kick Off was then published by Anil Gupta's publishing house Anco for the Atari ST and Commodore Amiga. The original version was programmed by Dino Dini with graphics, playtesting and tuning by Steve Screech[2][3]. first released in 1989, Kick Off was received well by the games industry at the time and won awards.
After the release of Kick Off several sequels were released. Player Manager was released in 1990. The game was the first game to combine a management environment (including tactics, league play, transfers, and detailed player attributes) with a football game engine (based on that of Kick Off). Kick Off 2 was released in 1990 as a sequel to Kick Off. The game introduced a number of new features as well as several small alterations.
In 1992, Dino Dini left Anco and signed a contract for Virgin Games, which released Goal! in 1993. Anco released several further editions of the Kick Off series between 1994 and 1997, but these games had little in common with Kick Off and Kick Off 2. In 2001–2003, the KOA collaborated closely with Anco developer Steve Screech in an attempt to relaunch the Kick Off and Player Manager series. Kick Off 2002 was released. Anco started to work on another sequel Kick Off 2004 which reached beta status. The attempt came to a halt when Anco closed in 2003.
Kick Off was released in 1989. Kick Off was first developed for the Atari ST and then ported to the Amiga.[4] Several expansion disks were released for Kick Off 2. In 1992, Dino Dini left Anco and signed a contract for Virgin Games, which released Goal! in 1993. Anco released Kick Off 3 in 1994. The game used a side view instead of a top-down view and bore little resemblance to Kick Off 2 apart from the name. Anco Software published the first versions of Kick Off for the Amiga and Atari ST.[5]
With Kick Off the ball did not stick to the player's feet but instead was realistically kicked ahead from the players, in a manner similar to that of Nintendo's Soccer, released in 1985 on the NES. This added a degree of difficulty and skill requirement at the same time. Other attributes, such as action replays, players with different characteristics, different tactics, fouls, yellow cards, red cards, injuries, injury time and various referees with different moods also featured.
- ST Action – Highest accolade they could give.
- Amiga User Int – "Best computer game ever" 97%
- The One – "Ultimate soccer simulation" 96%
- ACE – "Brilliant, BUY BUY BUY" 92%
- Amiga Format – "Best footy game to have appeared on any machine" 94%
- ST Format – "What a game! gem to play. Magic" 90%
- C&VG - "Championship winning material" 95%
- The Games Machine – "Probably the best sports game ever" 92%
- Commodore User – "No other footy game can touch it" 90%
- Amiga Action – "Surpasses all other football games" 93%
- PCW - "Nothing short of brilliant"
- New Comp Express – "Computer football event of the year"

- Awarded 1989 EMAP Images Golden Joystick Award Best 16 Bit Product. (EMAP is a major UK magazine publisher).
- Voted the 7th best game of all time in Amiga Power.[6]
Player Manager[edit]
Kick Off 2[edit]
In 1990, Kick Off 2 was released by Anco. Kick Off 2 retains the pace and accuracy of Kick Off, with a full size multi directional scrolling pitch and the players, markings, goals etc., in correct proportions. Both teams play the game strictly according to tactics. Players move into position to receive passes and gain possession. The ball, as in real game, travels ahead of the player.
There is a league and a cup tournament with sudden death penalty shoot outs, in case of a draw. The teams in the league are on the whole evenly matched but with different styles of play and the player skills to match, that style. There is an option to load your own team from "Player Manager" along with your own tactics, to play against another "Player Manager" team in a single game or enter league and cup tournament.
The special events selection in the main menu allows data disks to be loaded. Kick Off 2 also provides the facility to change strip colours and on expanded Atari ST's (1 MB or above) there are additional sound effects. The "Action Replay" facility allows goals to be viewed at normal pace or in "Slow Motion" and saved to disk. There are 24 referees and have their own distinctive temperaments.[7]
Super Kick-Off[edit]
Super Kick Off is one of the follow-ups of Kick Off and Kick Off 2 for Game Boy, SEGA and SNES.[8] Super Kick Off was slower than the original games.[8] The Mega Drive version knocked PGA Tour Golf II from the top of the charts.[9] MegaTech gave the game 94% and a Hyper Game Award, saying that the "feel and playability is unrivalled by any other footy game so far", but criticising the high price of £45.[10]
In 1992, a sequel, Kick Off 3, was in development. The game wasn't released in this form though, as Dino Dini left Anco in 1992 for Virgin Games, where he developed Goal!, released in 1993. Goal! featured similar gameplay to Kick Off 2 but also added one-touch passing as seen in Sensible Soccer, player acceleration, and more advanced menu systems and options. Goal! received generally good reviews but did not enjoy the same lasting popularity as Kick Off 2.
Kick Off 3 [edit]
In 1994, Anco released Kick Off 3 developed by Steve Screech, a totally new game with nothing in common with Kick Off 2. The game didn't receive as good reviews as its predecessors and didn't gain the same popularity.[11]
Kick Off 96, 97 & 98[edit]
In 1996, Toka Nono released Kick Off 96 for Amiga and Windows. The game received average reviews.[12] In 1997, Kick Off 97 was released for Windows. The game received better reviews than Kick Off 96 but still didn't become popular.[13] Later the same year, Anco released Kick Off 98 for the PC which received poor reviews.[14] In 1998 Kick Off World was released for the original PlayStation, again developed by Toka and published by Funsoft.
Kick Off 2002[edit]
In 2001, Steve Screech started a project called Ultimate Kick Off with the help of an early established Kick Off Association. The game was released by Anco in 2002 for PC and Mac[15] with the name Kick Off 2002. The game received poor reviews and only sold 5000 copies.[16][17] Later a sequel called Kick Off 2004 was planned. It reached beta status but it was never released. The project ended when Anco closed in 2003.
Kick Off Revival[edit]
In the end of 2015, Dino Dini announced that he was working on a new entry in the series, with a control system designed for the use with an analog stick. Kick Off Revival was released on June 24, 2016 exclusively for PlayStation 4 with poor reviews from the main game websites,[18] Metacritic then elected Dino Dini Kick Off Revival the 2nd worst game of 2016.[19] and Vice called Kick Off Revival as the worst football game ever' made.[20] A PlayStation Vita version was delayed and released 9 month after in 2017[21] with bad reviews.[22] A Steam version is in closed alpha, and invites are obtainable asking on his Twitch channel.
AfterTouch Soccer[edit]
In 2016 was announced AfterTouch Soccer, an enhanced remake of Kick Off 2[23][24] produced by Kick Off World, the international group maintaining the legacy of the original Kick Off games.[25][26] Developed with the help from the original author Steve Screech that gave permission to use all his graphics from Kick Off 2, it is intended as a sequel more adherent to the gameplay on the Commodore Amiga,[27] and it has been published by itch.io in early 2017 on smartphones and personal computers.[28][29]

Parisians turn terror attack scenes into shrines to the victims
GRIEF stricken Parisiens have turned the scenes of the gun and bomb massacre into shrines to the victims.
Flowers fill the pavements outside restaurants and bars Islamic State terrorists sprayed with bullets in the Friday the 13th atrocities.
Thousands of candles lit in memory of the 132 victims adorn each crime scene.
Walls are covered with poems and messages defying the terrorists.
One wall - outside Le Carillon café bar where 15 people died - was covered with blank white paper and pots of pens were left nearby so well-wishers could write their own tributes.
Locals pushed flowers through the bullet holes in the restaurant's windows.
At the Place de la Republique - a focal point for citizens expressing their defiance of the attacks - artists painted pictures promoting peace and love.
A constant stream of visitors laid flowers at all the scenes - across a four-mile stretch of the city - throughout the night while others ensured the memorial flames continued to burn non-stop.

* No evidence of rebel use - PM Cameron's spokesman
* Kerry says Assad cannot be part of transition government
* Israel asks Russia not to sell Syria defence missiles
By Andrew Roche
* No evidence of rebel use - PM Cameron's spokesman
* Kerry says Assad cannot be part of transition government
* Israel asks Russia not to sell Syria defence missiles
By Andrew Roche
LONDON, May 9 (Reuters) - Britain said on Thursday it
believed it was "very likely" the Syrian government had used
chemical weapons, and Turkey said it was testing victims of the
Syrian civil war for traces of such substances.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry expressed gratitude to
Russia for its willingness to try to arrange a "Geneva two"
conference to negotiate an end to the conflict, in a sign of a
thawing of the long diplomatic chill between Washington and
Moscow, Syria's strongest ally.
Damascus and the head of the Arab League welcomed the
apparent rapprochement between the United States and Russia this
week. Syrian opposition leaders are sceptical of an initiative
they fear might let President Bashar al-Assad hang on to power.
Kerry, in Rome, said however a transition government would
have to have the "mutual consent of both sides, which clearly
means that in our judgment President Assad will not be a
component of that transitional government".
Syria's foreign ministry said Damascus was convinced by the
"the firm Russian stance which is based on the U.N. principles
of non-interference in internal affairs or the threat to use
force against the safety of any state".
Israel has asked Russia not to sell Syria an advanced air
defence system which would help Assad fend off foreign military
intervention as he battles a more than two-year-old rebellion.
The S-300 missile is designed to shoot down planes and
missiles at 125-mile (200-km) ranges. It would enhance Syria's
current Russian-supplied defences, which did not deter Israel
from launching air strikes around Damascus last weekend.
"We have raised objections to this (sale) with the Russians,
and the Americans have too," an Israeli official told Reuters.
Kerry said in Rome that Washington would prefer Russia not
to sell weapons to Syria.
Western states have been reluctant to consider military
action against Assad, but U.S. President Barack Obama has said
the use of chemical weapons would cross a "red line" and trigger
a strong response.
Evidence of such use is so far fragmentary and disputed.
Asked about reports that rebel forces had used the banned
nerve agent sarin, a spokesman for British Prime Minister David
Cameron said: "Our assessment is that chemical weapons use in
Syria is very likely to have been initiated by the regime. We
have no evidence to date of opposition use."
Turkey has sent a team of eight experts to the border with
Syria to test wounded victims of the country's civil war for
traces of chemical and biological weapons, the state-run
Anatolian news agency said.
Turkey started testing blood samples last week from Syrian
casualties brought over the border for treatment to determine
whether they were victims of a chemical weapons attack.
The civil defence team, equipped with a specialist vehicle
which can detect evidence of chemical, biological and nuclear
substances, has been stationed at the Cilvegozu border gate near
the town of Reyhanli, Anatolian said.
Turkey's Star newspaper, which is close to the government,
reported on Thursday that the forensic institute that has been
testing the blood samples had found traces of ricin, a highly
toxic substance which can be used as a chemical warfare agent.
Turkish officials have declined to confirm whether the tests
have been completed or to comment on any results.
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said meanwhile the
United Nations should declare Syria's Islamist militant al-Nusra
Front a terrorist organisation, to differentiate it from other
Syrian rebel groups.
France wants to bolster the opposition Syrian National
Coalition, while pushing it to expand, unify and guarantee that
a new government in Damascus would respect the rights of all
communities, Fabius said in an interview with Le Monde daily.

IED is an Improvised explosive device, so yea you can say pipe bomb, but for most part your more likely hear about it in the news in places like Afghanistan.
Problem with trying to take the fight to them is with out supplies or manpower it's near enough impossible.
At best guerilla tatics are the only option, even then this is a group of kids that are only just surviving by the skin or their teeth.
Sure enough drawing groups of zombies together then blasting to bits good and all really only good for getting past or clearing out areas altho then if your using something that goes KABOOM! your more than likely to attract more attention.
Well I'm really just wondering if the gorup will meet up with Miss Sniper....altho when that happens I get the feeling it's at that time she would most likely get killed.

At least with a an IED that's rigged to remote detonate or trip wired it would be an isolated source of noise. Takashi and the gang can pretty much use the large amounts of common flammable/explosive household products lying around to make IEDs assuming Kouta has the knowledge. However, manpower would be a problem...

Actually they can run. Remember when they stormed the plaza of Saya's house? They were all over the place in a matter of seconds.
As for the distraction tactic, who exactly is going to set up the trap? The person will most likely not get away far enough to escape the horde.

And they can also use the Chinese scanlations if some group is planning on picking it up.

Just because there are scans doesn't mean whoever scanned it will release the Japanese raws. If there aren't raws available yet, then the person probably is in Japan, scanned them exclusively for their group and won't make them publicly available.

First of all, let's clear the misunderstanding. In my first post, I was aware that those were Chinese scanlations and not the actual Japanese raws.
But I was trying to say that if there is Chinese scanlations of it already out, then there is also the raws available as well. Whether or not they will release it publicly I don't know, and don't really care as long as I get to see the pictures since I can get most of what's happening (of course, English scanlations are better).
Did I really had to emphasize such an easily obvious point? lol.
And yes, I wouldn't mind if some other group picks it up and translates it from Chinese to English. First comes first serves, so that group would get the points from me.

Let's be honest. A bowl of raw chopped veggies is a bit… plain. You know you should get excited about eating this healthily, but if even you hesitate, then how to get the kids on board? "It's really good for you" does not necessarily spark enthusiasm. Cutting them into "fun" shapes or making cute veggie faces is just desperate. Tricking them might have worked when they were toddlers – "darling, have another green French fry" or "it's a crunchy sausage" were some of my white lies – but these days, I have a new secret weapon.
Introducing Chip'n'dip Moroccan style: My Awesome Black-eyed Bean Hummus, a more nutty and earthy tasting version of the classic chickpea hummus. More interesting than hummus-hummus, if you ask me.
Tere's no need to cook these beans from scratch. Just grab a 400ml tin. It's the garlic, lemon and tahini that make this hummus moreish. Drizzle a bit of olive oil on top and garnish with chopped parsley or smoked paprika. It makes a great snack or a quick starter to prevent that state of HANGRYNESS before dinner is ready. You can keep it in the fridge for up to a week and the leftovers can be used as a handy sandwich spread.
Bowl of raw veggies, anyone?
Yields 4 portions
Simple, creamy, moreish. Eat with celery sticks, chopped carrots, fennel or any other vegetable in your fridge.

5 minCook Time
10 minTotal Time
- 1 can black-eyed beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 garlic clove
- juice of 1/2 a lemon
- 2 heaped tablespoons tahini
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- salt, to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley, smoked paprika or cayenne to garnish
- Drop the garlic clovesin a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until finely minced.
- Add the beans, tahini, lemon juice and process until pasty.
- With the motor running, slowly drizzle in olive oil until a creamy mixture is formed. Season with salt and additional lemon juice, if necessary.
- if you like a softer texture, add a couple of tablespoons of the bean liquid or a dollop of plain yoghurt
- Sprinkle the top with paprika, parsley or cayenne, and drizzle with a little more olive oil.
- I am kind of in love with my food processor, so this is yet another occasion where I can admire how perfectly mess-free and scarily efficient it is. If you haven't got one, just mix the lot with a stick blender!

In ARToolKit the term multimarker (as a single word) has a special meaning. Rather than meaning the use of more than one marker at a time, it refers specifically to the use of multiple square markers fixed to a single object. Multimarker tracking has special support in the ARToolKit API and allows for a number of tracking performance and stability enhancements.
In multimarker tracking, the markers can have arbitrary relationships to each other, but these relationships must remain fixed. In practice, the most common multimarker arrangement is multiple markers on a single flat sheet, as in the examples provided with ARToolKit:
Many other useful arrangements are possible, e.g. the cube example also provided with ARToolKit:
Some of the benefits of multimarkers include:
Note that these are the same advantages of using NFT (texture) tracking. The advantages of multimarker tracking over NFT is that it is less CPU intensive, faster, and can operate reliably at greater distances from the camera. The obvious disadvantage is that it requires the surface to be covered in square markers.
The examples shown above all use Using 2D-Barcode Markers. About the Traditional Template Square Marker can also be used, and ARToolKit has included an example: ![This example uses six pattern (template) markers. The multimarker config and its pattern files can be found in the bin/Data/multi directory of the SDK. This works with the multi example in ARToolKit on desktop.[Examplemultimarkertemplate]
Barcode markers do have the advantage over pictorial markers of speed, setup simplicity (no need to make pattern files) and improved rejection of false matches when using markers with error detection and correction (e.g. the marker sets with Hamming codes).
ARToolKit includes the following examples of multimarker tracking: - multi - multiCube
PDF files you can print out for the marker sets used in these examples can be found in the files
doc/patterns/Multi pattern (template, A4).pdf or
doc/patterns/Multi pattern (template, Letter).pdf and
doc/patterns/Cubes/cube00-05-a4.pdf or
doc/patterns/Cubes/cube00-05-letter.pdf. If you print on ISO A4 size, choose the PDF with "A4" in the name, or if you print on US Letter size paper, choose the PDF with "Letter" in the name.
In ARToolKit for iOS, any app using the ARAppCore code supports multimarker tracking without any further work by the developer. The code is provided in the ARMarkerMulti Obj-C class. Thus, the following examples include support for multimarker tracking, as well as other markers types:
In ARToolKit for Android, any app using the ARBaseLib library or its underlying native implementation, ARWrapper, supports multimarker tracking without any further work by the developer. The code is provided in the ARMarkerMulti C++ class. Thus, the following examples include support for multimarker tracking, as well as other marker types:
In all the examples, multimarkers are specified to the system by use of a multimarker configuration file. This is a plain text file with a structure which sets out the number of markers, their barcode IDs or pattern file names, and their relationship to a common shared coordinate system origin.
A multimarker configuration file is structured as follows:
If we examine the first marker definition in the example multimarker set bin/Data/cubeMarkerConfig.dat, we see these lines:
\#marker 1 00 40.0 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000 0.0000
Following the above guide, we see that this uses barcode pattern 0 and the marker is 40 mm wide. The transformation matrix is the identity matrix, i.e. marker 0's origin is co-located with the origin of the multimarker set, and the axes are co-aligned.
If we consider the transformation matrix of individual markers, the first three columns are a rotation matrix which represent the rotation of the marker with respect to the origin of the multimarker set. This is the standard 3×3 rotation matrix familiar in computer graphics or linear algebra. The fourth column is the offset from the origin of the multimarker set to the origin (the centre) of this the individual marker.
So for example, if marker 0 in the example was rotated by angle theta about the X axis then the matrix would change to:
1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 cos(theta) -sin(theta) 0.0000 0.0000 sin(theta) cos(theta) 0.0000
As a further example, consider marker 01 in the cube example. Its definition is:
\#marker 2 01 40.0 1.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0000 1.0000 30.0000 0.0000 -1.0000 0.0000 -30.0000
This tells us that the origin of marker 01 is offset +30 mm in the direction of the multimarker set's y axis, and -30 mm in the direction of the multimarker set's z axis. Finally, it is rotated by -90 degrees (in a right-hand sense) around the multimarker set's positive x axis.
R[1-0] be a 4×4 matrix where the first three rows are the values specified in configuration file, and the fourth row is the row vector
{0, 0, 0, 1}. Then when
R[1-0] is applied to a point vector in the marker coordinate system
p[1], it transforms it into a point vector expressed in the multimarker coordinate system
p[0], i.e.
p[0] = R[1-0] • p[1] (where • is the normal matrix multiplication operator).
In the image below, the red arrows denote the x, y and z axes of the multimarker coordinate system, aligned with marker 0. The blue arrows denote unit vectors
ô and
â, aligned with the
y, and
z axes of the marker 1 coordinate system. The green arrow denotes
p, a vector extending from the origin of the multimarker coordinate system to the origin of of the marker 1 coordinate system. The transform matrix for marker 1 can then be considered 4 column vectors expressing the projection of
â and
p onto
y, and
The matrix is thus:
n[x] o[x] a[x] p[x] n[y] o[y] a[y] p[y] n[z] o[z] a[z] p[z]
Compare this to the example above, and it can be seen that for marker 01 on the cube,
n̂ is aligned with the
x axis (no change),
ô points completely in the direction of
-z, and
â points completely in the direction of

Agency and implementation: Understanding the embedding of healthcare innovations in practice
An innovation is almost never a thing-in-itself. To be sure, there is often what looks like a thing – a newly invented or modified way of thinking or acting, or an artifact, or a system – that is identified in everyday talk as something new. In healthcare, as in almost every other area of human organization, innovations often involve highly organized, institutionally sanctioned, and systematically regulated changes in the structure and delivery of services. This paper presents a theory of implementation and embedding of innovations – Normalization Process Theory – and explores its application to a highly complex ensemble of socio-technical practices, clinical shared decision making. The theoretical analysis presented here shows how implementation as a process and embedding as a state can be conceptualized in terms of social mechanisms that effect changes in the ways that agents' contribute to normative restructuring, the reworking of relational conventions and group processes, the enacting of practices, and their projection into the future.

Just think of all the big occassions in a typical mans life….he is wearing a suit right? Whether it's a wedding, or court date, job interview or heck even their own funeral. Suits are worn on these occasions because men want to feel special and important. Not only do they feel special but women love to see men look their best and a suit definitely helps that to happen. A well tailored or fitting suit, with a power tie, cuff links, crisp shirt and polished shoes, whoooooowe….
When you see a man walking down the street dressed like this, you don't know if he owns the block or just has an interview on the block. What a powerful feeling, what a confidence builder, what a great experience.
Unfortunately many men all over are missing out on these experiences because they lack the knowledge of the importance of dressing professionally and /or they lack the finances to purchase them.
I see so many of our young men who don't know how to tie a tie or have never worn a suit. Many of them because they lack a male figure in their lives to show them and train them. I thank God my father was around to show and teach my brother and I. When boys lack these positive male figures in their life it can hinder them in so many ways. No disrespect to women who have done great jobs when they had to but I believe there are things that a man can bring that is truly significant in a young mans development
So my brother and I want to help young men experience that feeling of wearing a suit, learning how to tie a tie, and then showing others the same. We formed a non-profit called WWW.THATSUITSYOU.ORG. We recieve donated suits and ties and provide them to men who complete job training programs throughtout the country.
Men, churches, businesses, men stores all over contact us to donate clothing to us to assist us in our vision. We want to help men all over to get back on their feet and support their families.

Construction Site Weather Safety Tips:
Weather varies round the year. It is important to consider safety associated which each weather in a construction site. Winter is probably the most challenging weather, not only because of cold conditions that it presents to people who are out there working, but it comes with numerous health issues too. Hot weather has its peculiar safety tips to be adhering to as well. People get dehydrate easily and care must be taken to keep to safety precaution associated this condition.
Construction site should be approached with care all through the year, cautious efforts to make sure all men on site are safe, is a task to pay attention to.
Know the weather Peculiarities
To carry out construction project, it is helpful to know the climatic condition of the area where project is to be done. Weather condition will determine safety gadgets to be at the construction site for workers. Construction companies are saddled with the responsibility to protect their workers from harsh weather conditions. Safety must always come first.
Needs in Hot Weather:
1. Hydration
Workers need to be kept hydrated by taking lots of water. But water is tasteless and boring, so electrolyte beverages, like Gatorade can be added to spice it up.
2. Designer beverages no go area
Avoid designer beverages like red bull at all cost, because they offer minimum hydration, also carbonated drinks, and other sodas. Stay away from caffeine as well. Citrus beverages are cool with 50% water.
3. Reschedule work
In extreme hot weather, is safer to work at cooler hours of the day. If the job can be done at night is not a bad idea. Modify working hours to suit the challenges poise by the weather.
4. Carefully choose your lunch
To avoid high caloric load on your digestive systems, is better to avoid junk foods which are known to be high in fat and preservatives. Eat bigger breakfasts and light lunches.
Winter safety Tips:
1. Protective clothing
During winter, workers must wear protective clothing and use equipment best suited for the weather. Boots or shoes with none slip soles are best fit.
2. Weather updates
Monitor the weather conditions to know the weather update.
3. Use anti-slip materials
Make use of anti-slip material like sand or salt on the walk way to make it less slippery.
4. Inspection
Inspect overhead area to ensure snow and ice to not accumulate ion them.
As a Norwegian proverb goes "There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing", construction companies must equipped their workers at construction sites to meet changing weather conditions.

Why Giving Up On God And Self Doesn't Make Sense!
- By The Christian Messenger
- Published 08/25/2009
The Christian Messenger
The Christian Messenger - Evangelism Through Journalism. The Christian Messenger is an evangelical monthly newspaper published from Chennai, India. Started in 2002 as a privately circulated periodical, its initial print run was 2,500 copies. A year later, it became a registered newspaper. Currently, the print order is 15,000 copies. It is perhaps the only Christian newspaper that spans the length and breadth of the country. The founders of the newspaper have a vision to make it India's leading Christian daily.What we do: Good news, first! That's our burden. Good news is not just the Gospel but also the positive side of Christian living. But that doesn't mean we don't report bad news. Persecution, end-times watch, falling idols and Biblical prophecies that come true are part of our reportage. We are dependent on God and independent of any denomination, groups or organizations. Neither do we let advertisers influence news coverage nor do we print puffed up handouts. We are fair, neutral and non-judgmental. Because we believe in a God who tells the truth and expects us to be like Him. Why a Christian newspaper? At the heart of our media mission is this motto: Evangelism through journalism. The purpose of this newspaper is to report newsworthy religious events and activities within the local community, nationwide and around the world, to increase the awareness and activism of believers regarding the moral issues of today, to provide thought-provoking commentary, and to provide an effective advertising vehicle for Christian ministries and organizations, events and businesses that want to reach the Christian community in India and abroad.

THE real message of the book of Job is: 1)don't quit on God, and 2) don't quit on Yourself! Job has always been the classic example that God gave to us, to help us deal with the very real trials and tribulations of day-to-day life that we all face.
One of the great insights that God shares with us in Job is where these trials and tribulations stem from. When we sin against God, when we rebel, there are always consequences. Sometimes those consequences are more severe than at other times. The important thing to never forget is that sin always has a price, a high price.
Yes, we have the precious promise in 1 John 1:9 that when we sin, if we confess our sins to God, He will forgive us and bring us back into fellowship. But we still have to deal with the real life onsequences of our rebellious choices!
However, what about when horrible things happen to us when we didn't do anything wrong? What about the great question that is often asked: "Why do bad things to happen to good people?" You see, the 'bad things' that happen in this world are a result of sin in the world. God is not the author of sin, rebellious man is. Satan is the cheerleader and encourager of man's rebellion towards God. It is the sin in the world that is responsible for the evil and 'bad things' that we experience in our life.
We get an incredible transcript in Job chapters 1 and 2 of Satan and God in conversation about Job. Note for the record, it is Satan who has to get God's permission in order to do anything! While God clearly allowed the horrible things that happened to Job to take place, He also stepped in and would not allow Job to die.
Until that day when God steps in and brings this world as we know it to an end, 'bad things' will always happen because of the rebellion and sinfulness of man!
There is little doubt to me that Satan decided to 'attack' Job because of his faithfulness towards and love of God. I am sure he took it as a challenge to try and get Job to curse and denounce God. Because of his dedicated life to God, Job was a 'light' to those he encountered in his day-to-day life and the spiritual head of his family. Satan realized that by bringing down the most faithful, it has a domino effect. When people see a man or woman of God, someone that is in a leadership position fall, it can cause many of those who are not as strong in their faith to fall as well.
Let this be a lesson to not only prepare for, but expect the enemy to attack you full force on every front that you can imagine, whenever you are walking close to God and allowing Him to use your life to bless others. When you are not doing anything for God, you are not a threat to Satan. When you are serving the Lord, Satan will do his best to bring you down. That is why the Bible clearly tells us that our battle is not of flesh and blood, but it is a spiritual battle.
Job gives us the road map to fighting whatever battles Satan can throw us.
First of all, do not give up on God. When we are under attack, we have to press into God even more than we normally would. The natural reaction is to pull away from God, to question God, to grumble.
That is exactly what Satan wants you to do.
The further he can get you from God, the harder he can hit you, and the more chance he has of taking you down. While we will never fully understand why God allowed the 'bad things' to happen, know that He is not the author, and it is the sin in this world that is the genesis of all evil we face in our lives. Never forget that satan is not a cartoon character, but a very being that the Bible clearly tells us is here to kill, steal and destroy. You
don't need much more warning than that. When the attacks come, do not give up on God.
Secondly, do not give up on yourself. We still live in this real world. When I read the last chapters of Job and how God so richly blessed him with a new family, a greater business then the one that he lost, one thing is clearly evident to me.
After all of the horrible things that happened to him, Job didn't lay in his bed every day having a pity party for himself.
To have this great new family, he had to get out, court a few ladies, find the one God had for him, and get married. To have this business greater then before he had to get out, work hard, make wise choices in his business dealings, and allow his business to grow just like any business does. While we read in the end how God richly blessed Job, it didn't happen overnight, but over a period of time, and it happened because Job did not give up on himself.
I love you and care about you so much. My heart breaks each day as I get the breakdown of the 40,000 some prayer requests that we get each day. I personally still answer about 60 a day, and look over hundreds more. So many of the requests are from people like Job. People who have had horrible things happen to their marriage, to their children, to their jobs, to their health. They email me crying out for prayer, for answers, wondering where
God is.
Jesus said it best. Just hours before going to the cross, one of the last things He told those He was closest to was that in this world, you will have trials and you will have tribulation.
You see, Jesus didn't want them to be fooled into thinking that just because they had a personal relationship with Him, that their life would be easy. As a matter of fact, quite the opposite would be true. So out of His love for them, He tried to prepare them for the battles that they would face because of the sin in this world and because of their faith in Him. But he also gave them these reassuring words, "But be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
So as you face the day-to-day trials and tribulations of this life, as the enemy attacks you, never forget the example of Job.
Don't give up on God. Don't give up on yourself.
Most important, 'be of good cheer', for Jesus has overcome this world!
The Christian Messenger

Wilfried Bony produced his best performance as a Swansea City player on New Year's Day.
The Ivory Coast striker scored twice as the Swans went down 3-2 to Manchester City and his display, which included a spectacular second goal, was not lost on his manager Michael Laudrup.
"I think it was by far the best performance from Bony as a Swansea player and that is how we want to see him," the Dane said.
"He showed good movement, he was challenging defenders and if he can do it against Vincent Kompany and Matija Nastasic he can do it against anyone. I think that was very positive."

Notwithstanding the essentially hostile propaganda of the detractors of the government and its political opponents in regards to corruption and economy, the government of PML-N has been credited by global corruption monitoring and rating agencies for its successful record in both the domains. The Transparency International in its fourth consecutive annual report has indicated a fall in the corruption index of Pakistan. Since 2013 corruption has declined by 19 points with the biggest nosedive of nine points during 2016.
According to the report Pakistan has achieved the distinction of being the second state in South Asia in regards to tackling corruption . That indeed is a matter of great pride for the country as well as the incumbent government, which has made credible efforts to eliminate avenues of corruption in the higher echelons of the government and different tiers of the government machinery. The reality is that unlike in the previous government, no mega-corruption scandal has been reported or unearthed by the excessively vigilant media and anti-corruption entities. The endorsement of the decline in corruption by a prestigious agency like Transparency International should silence those who are relentlessly engaged in soiling the reputation of the government by hurling unsubstantiated allegations of corruption against it.
The performance and achievement of the government with regards to the revival of the economy has also been repeatedly endorsed by almost all the international lending and rating agencies and they all have predicted higher GDP in the coming years. Reportedly Pakistan's Stock Exchange Index continues to maintain its upward trajectory and has achieved the highest ever benchmark of 50,000 in regards to KSE-100 index. At the recently concluded moot of the World Economic Forum, the President of the forum and world leaders not only acknowledged the success story of the economic policies of the government but predicted a leading role for Pakistan in promoting regional connectivity. According to media reports published on 24 January the internationally renowned Fund Manager Emi Corporation has declared Pakistan among the six best countries most suitable for investment.
There could not have been a better exposition of the achievements of the government in the domain of tackling corruption and reviving the economy than the authenticity given to them by respective international forums. As the say, 'facts speak for themselves', the fact is that the present government through prudent management of the economy and structural reforms has been able to lift the profile of the economy and nudge a process of sustained economic growth. Budget deficit, which is considered to be the mother of all economic infirmities, has been brought down from 8.8% of GDP in 2013 to 4.2 % by the year 2016. GDP growth rate which was less than 3% stands at 4.71 %, the highest rate in the last eight years. Inflation has been kept at a single digit. They are all verifiable facts. The World Bank has predicted GDP growth rate of 5.1 during 2016-17.
The energy crisis that badly affected industry and agriculture sectors as well as the domestic consumers has gradually been checked and the government has been able to add 3000 MW to the national grid during the last three years, reducing power cuts. With the import of LNG the gas supply to the industrial units has considerably improved. By the end of 2018, the projects initiated under CPEC will add another 10640 MW electricity to the national grid. It is perhaps pertinent to point out that by 2030 another addition of 30000 MW is envisaged. That surely promises a prosperous future for the country. It is expected the completion of CPEC infrastructure and energy project by 2030, will add nearly 3% to the GDP growth rate of the country.
The CPEC is a fortune-changing mega-project for Pakistan and all the participating countries. Pakistan in its capacity as an economic hub for the region would be the biggest beneficiary. It is a national project and the government has made sure that it is not only nationally owned but also leads to prosperity of all the federating units. In this regard it has made relentless efforts to remove the misgivings of the federating units and those who have been trying to belittle the importance of CPEC. The government ensured the participation of the Chief Ministers of KPK, Sindh, Gilgit-Baltistan and Balochistan in the sixth meeting of the Joint Coordination Committee recently held in Beijing in which all the provinces have been given additional development projects for their provincial capitals in addition to the already promised ventures under CPEC.
The PML-N government can also rightly claim the credit for checking the phenomenon of terrorism in its tracks. It showed rare spunk by taking on the terrorist outfits based in North Waziristan through operation Zarb-e-Azb and in the wake of APS tragedy making a comprehensive plan to deal with terrorists and militant outfits within the country, both through the military muscle and a counter-narrative on the ideological front. Though the scourge has not been eliminated altogether, there is no denying the fact that incidents of terrorism have gone down by 70%. The fight against terrorism is a very complicated and a long drawn out struggle.
It is a fight against an invisible enemy with an ideological narrative, believed and enacted by its followers as an article of faith. Look at the history of the countries which had to endure similar situations and it would be revealed that it took them decades to surmount the menace. Our fight has just begun. The terrorists would continue to enact their dastardly acts as longs as their remnants are not completely decimated. The terrorism in Pakistan unfortunately also has foreign dimensions which makes it even more difficult to find a quick fix solution to this festering problem. Nevertheless there is no lack of commitment and determination on the part of the government and the security establishment in regards to taking the fight to its logical end and also to deal with the foreign sponsored acts of terrorism. The government and the security establishment have also been successful in improving the situation in Karachi and Balochistan.
The people and media need to understand that the issue of terrorism was a very convoluted challenge. The media particularly needs to show a greater sense of responsibility. It has been seen that whenever a terrorist act happens, the media shows an impulsive propensity to denigrate the government and attributing the enactment to its failure. There is a mad rush to grill the government and agencies without any reference to the incidents of terrorism prevented before their enactment through intelligence based operations, killing, arrest and prosecution of the terrorists and action taken against their sympathisers, sleeping cells and financiers. This kind of media onslaught has a demoralising affect and spreads despondency. Realities need to be recognised. The fact is that the government has achieved considerable success in tackling terrorism, reviving economy and reducing corruption , for which it deserves due credit.

There will be a lot of winners at the White House Wednesday, but one of the group's most recognizable stars will not be among them.
President Donald Trump is hosting the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots in the customary White House visit accorded to the winning team.
However, New England quarterback Tom Brady, who missed New England's 2015 White House visit citing "personal reasons," is once again not attending.
Advertisement - story continues below
Brady, who had previously been expected to attend the event, announced Wednesday that he will not be attending.
"I am so happy and excited that our team is being honored at the White House today. Our team has accomplished something very special that we are all proud of and will be for years to come. Thank you to the President for hosting this honorary celebration and for supporting our team for as long as I can remember," Brady wrote in his statement.

"In light of some recent developments, I am unable to attend today's ceremony, as I am attending to some personal family matters. Hopefully, if we accomplish the goal of winning a championship in the future years, we will back on the South Lawn again soon. Have a great day!" his statement added.

Trump has made no secret of his admiration for Brady, and is also close with Patriots owner Bob Kraft and head coach Bill Belichick.
Tom Brady just did it again. He is not only a great guy, he is, without question, the BEST quarterback!

What an amazing comeback and win by the Patriots. Tom Brady, Bob Kraft and Coach B are total winners. Wow!

Trump even chastised the NFL for suspending Brady after the Deflate-gate incident.

They had no definitive proof against Tom Brady or #patriots. If Hillary doesn't have to produce Emails, why should Tom? Very unfair!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 11, 2015
Brady is not the only one to miss the trip.
New England players Devin McCourty, LeGarrette Blount, Alan Branch, Dont'a Hightower, Chris Long and Martellus Bennett have said they will not attend. Hightower did not give a reason for his absence. The other players said they had political differences with Trump.
The visit comes under the shadow of the prison suicide of former Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, who died Wednesday morning.

Hi everyone!
It's been a while, I know. But over the past few months life's been crazy and so this blog just wasn't my main focus anymore. After 6 years living in England I've moved to Austria. A move I made for a new job. It's an exciting change, but after my first month in Austria there's already so much I miss about living in the UK and I can't wait to go back and visit soon.
I've moved to Vienna, a city I've only ever been to a handful of times, and I couldn't be happier with the choice I made of moving here. The city is so beautiful and wherever you turn, there's an impressive historic building right around the corner and so many places to explore.
The downside with moving however is trying to settle in. Unfortunately I still haven't moved into my apartment so I'm staying in temporary flats and Airbnb rooms until I move in December. Until then, mainly due to the lack of a proper kitchen, recipe posts will be scarce around here. However, during my time away I've had time to reflect and find inspiration for upcoming posts and projects. So hopefully once I'm all moved into my apartment and my kitchen is up and running I can continue sharing lots of my favorite new recipes.
Until then I'll probably share a few travel posts and possibly even restaurant posts and reviews in Vienna. I hear there's a ton of amazing places to eat here! And if you'd like to stay in touch, you can follow me on instagram.

Would like to know the tentative dates for the update for Dell Venue to Android 2.3. Or even if whether it's in the pipeline for the update.
Any heads up will be appreciated.
User's who want an update for their Venue to to Android 2.3 vote below:
Hi, I will really appreciate an update to 2.3 for Dell Venue.
XDA is a web site, one of the best for making the best of your Android device. Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1010 for all things Venue, especially the Venue General and Venue Android Development sub-forums. My instructions for updating to Gingerbread can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19968194&postcount=45. If you don't know what ADB is and how to use it, or never flashed an Android device, read the instructions at least 3 times before trying to do anything. Otherwise read them twice. The instructions work fine, but if you don't follow the directions and break your phone, don't come crying to me.
YESS!!! DELL Please upgrade it.
And make russian language in OS, please
pls update to latest release gingerbread!!!!
Can Dell keep Android's pace?
A post (from today) on the Venue xda developers forum site claims that Dell will release a firmway update within 3 weeks...Let's see!
please update as soon as possible!
I love my Venue but I too would like to see it updated to the .23 or even higher
rummor.nobody confirm....
45-days later.... I've given up on Dell and stopped using the Venue. And in case you're considering purchasing the Venue - DON'T! The OS is woefully outdated, and now even the hardware is..... why would you buy a single-core CPU running Android 2.2, when for a little more you could be running dual-core with Android 2.3.4 which itself needs improvement?
All the best to those who still remain hopeful....
I have no choice....I wanted an unlocked Android phone with a warranty and a large, good display....not too many options out there...
We should be expecting honeycomb 3, by now
Any update?
Called a Dell rep. Apparently they are about to release 2.2.2 (not 2.3 or newer). Some version is floating around that has BIG issues (even more issues than the current 2.2). If you get a message from your service provider that you can go ahead and upgrade, please do not until you have checked back with Dell whether that one is ok.They expect to have a clean upgrade release version by end of August.Venueguy
I bought this phone 2 weeks ago and my biggest yet complaint is that it drains the battery very very QUICKLY. Please DELL. Fix this!! Please.
Yes, I support your idea John.
It seems Dell was late for the update.

You go online and fish around for properties out in the country, only to find yourself discouraged because the price is not one that your budget can afford. I remember those days all too well. Sitting in the kitchen of the city lot watching cars buzz by every couple seconds, dreaming of a quiet life.
There they are, those listings come up in your price range. You look at those properties with rose colored glasses and a vision of what it "could be". A run down trailer on a couple acres with a promise hidden in your heart that one day you could tear that old rat den down and build a little log cabin in its stead. Years go by and you are still in the city trying to make the days pass.
Why not grow where you are planted? Find ways, today, to start homesteading. It is not that difficult to get started. You do not have to be out on the prairie to be resourceful.
Homesteading in its true essence is being resourceful.
Here are 5 Ways to Start A Homestead...
1. Plant a Micro-Garden
If you live in an apartment, grow little potted herbs in your window sills where they get some sunlight.
All year long you can clip little sprigs of herbs off your little potted herbs and it will give you a feeling of growing some of your own food.
Some people have a patio or sun room. These are great places to grow all kinds of things. You can grow a cucumber plant on an old iron bench, or a tomato in a large clay pot. The biggest maintenance would be making sure you water your pots frequently.
1. Store Up Some Bulk Grains
Another way you can start the homesteading experience of being resourceful is to buy in bulk. Did you know that if you have a few buckets of dried beans and rice, you can survive on those commodities for up to a year without going to the grocery store. The cost of a few sacks of beans and rice would be less than $100. It is not ideal to eat beans and rice at every meal for an entire year, but it will keep you alive as long as you had fresh water to drink.
We buy 50 pound sacks of the following grains each year:
- Dried beans (Kidney, Black, Pinto, Great Northern, etc...)
- Lentils
- Rice
- Wheat berries (Spelt, Kamut, Rye, etc...)
- Corn
- Oats
- Quinoa
- Millet
- Barley
In a survival situation, you could have your beans and rice....AND a side of mung beans for a vegetable! That is a healthy combination! All bulk grains can be stored in 5 gallon pails for years to come as long as you seal it up well. I have heard basil leaves or diatomaceous earth can be used to repel the creepers that may enjoy your stash. I have never had an issue with critters getting into my grain bins. I do not air seal them, I do not add basil leaves, I do not buy expensive mylar bags with oxygen absorbers, I just dump them into a $5 bucket I bought at a hardware store down the road and put a lid on it.
You can use a wheat grinder which gives you that homegrown feeling. Grinding wheat can be done with an electric wheat grinder. If you do not have an electric wheat grinder, you should check the one we sell in our store. We use our industrial strength (The Country Grain Mill) that can grind a lot at one time. When you grind wheat fresh, you get all the benefits from it. Flour really looses its nutrition the longer it sits on the shelf. Do not store up flour, you should grind it fresh always. Fresh ground flour had to be used immediately because within about 72 hours it would lose at least 90% of over 30 nutrients through oxidation.
Making your own breads, cereals, crackers, and noodles from scratch lends to the homesteading experience. If you watch our Homesteading for Beginners DVD series, you will find all kinds of recipes and demonstrations how to make these sorts of things. (Get them now while they are on sale!)
You do not have to have a garden to do some canning or freezing. My grandmother lived through the depression and canned everything she grew in her flower beds around the house. She did not live on a homestead or out in the country, yet her pantry was always filled with jars.
Farmer's Markets are great places to find produce in bulk if you want to can up something for the winter. Certain things can be blanched, put in freezer bags and stored in the freezer. Some folks just do not have the space for a garden, so buying fresh produce is a wonderful alternative that will give a great feeling of self sufficiency. Some ladies do little one batch canning projects and find it very fulfilling. It is not really hard to do and it can offer a selection of food to eat later in the year.
Now-a-days, most city ordinances allow for a few caged hens for laying eggs. Many people do not realize the possibilities of this. You can house them like you would domestic rabbits, in little cages with shelter attached. They make very little noise and that is why they are being allowed. It is fun for children to pick out some baby chicks in the spring and raise them to be laying hens. Each day they can run out and throw them some kitchen scraps or feed. Gathering eggs is such a delightful experience for people of all ages!
You have your fresh home-grown eggs and a feeling that you are making it a little closer to the land. This is something within anyone's reach. Check out your county or city ordinance today and start homesteading today!

Social Media Strategy
Social Media Strategy or methodology must be chosen very carefully if you want to truly capitalize on the massive amount of potential leads that it offers. And social media can offer huge amounts of traffic and potential leads and customers – if it is done properly!
But that "properly" part is the mystery to most people when it comes to taking on social media. We could spend hours and hours trying to figure it out. And trying to master getting folks to like our page. Oh and lets not forget how many thousands of dollars we could waste on Facebook pay per click ads – if we do not know how to optimize and nail a targeted audience.
But if we learn a good social media strategy – we could capture thousands of leads in almost no time. And when you stop and think about it – almost any company or business out there wants to figure out a good social media strategy. And especially on Facebook!

Now I have to admit that most of my personal focus for my online marketing business has been strictly through blogging. And in blogging – I mean building niche sites that are highly targeting specific search engine results pages. And one of those sites is actually this one and you can learn more about us later on by clicking on Lead System – which brings you to our main page.
But I am increasingly becoming aware of how I am being left in the dust because I have not branched out into a sound social media strategy. So looking around and asking around – one source keeps coming up over and over again. And I mean – it's unanimous that this person is the – "go to" – person when it comes to Facebook training.
So I looked into her course and some of her trainings and webinars and she is phenomenal in what she shares with people. I mean think about this for a minute. If you knew an incredible online cash machine -social media strategy – that just pumped thousands of dollars on a monthly basis into your bank account – wouldn't you want to keep it to your self?
Yeah I am sure that you would! But she made it available to a community of online marketers that we belong to. And – she priced it really low too. But then again – maybe she will only keep it out there for a short time – and I don't personally know about that. But what I do know is that we can get it right now.
Anyway – you can check out her social media strategy that she has for Facebook. And just watching the video on this link will teach you a bunch of things that you probably didn't even know about. LOL – and that's without taking the course! But anyway check out the video by clicking here on Social Media Mastery.
So check out Social Media Mastery right now! And then you can always check out Lead System too – which is our main page – if you haven't already seen it.
