Crowdfunding has been around for a bit now and turns out to be one of the best financial reliefs for start-ups around the world. Thanks to the "crowd", we can make our ideas come true together.
People and investors are more and more willing to contribute to these beautiful projects. Almost all projects can be funded, from a brand new album to a top-market technology. But among the growing quantity of projects, platforms, and ideas, it is very difficult to stand above the rest.
11 Crucial Steps To Pave The Way For Your Crowdfunding Campaign
Here on CrowdDistrict, I want to introduce you to my top 11 tips to succeed with your crowdfunding campaign BEFORE going live:
1 – Envision a 1 to 2 month anticipation to get everything clarified. It might not look like it, but building a crowdfunding campaign takes a lot of time and rethinking. You don't want to overlook any element: pitch, video, storyboard, perks, budget, etc.
2 – Choose the right platform for your project. Some websites are only targeting niche markets. And if you want a chance for your project to be featured on the front page, you might want to consider being the right fit for that platform. Pick your platform according to the costs, the way you collect the money, the target audience, the number of projects funded, and the popularity of the website. Stick to one platform to gain an initial audience and minimize complications.
3 – Prepare your storyboard – prioritize images and bold text to highlight your major facts. Some successful projects choose to present their fact (or at least part of it) as an infographic. It can be a good idea according to your project. It must look clean, easy to read and understandable at first glance. Stay coherent and simple with your graphic choices. Also, try to focus on the benefit of your project before anything else. Use bullet points to clarify your main features.
Then comes the most striking element of the campaign: the video. Shoot a short video (2 minutes more or less) showing your motivations, your products and some rewards you're offering. We want to know who's behind the genius idea; and most of all who's asking for our money. In the video you can start talking about yourself first, so that people understand your story and motivation. Where's the idea coming from? Do you have any funny fact to mention? Play with the camera angles to keep people interested. But keep it short, real and attractive.
Your text is a more detailed version of your video. You'll be able to give them more information there (shipping method, "about us" section, details of the offer and FAQs).
4 – Watch the competition on each platform, as well as other industry leaders. By browsing other campaigns, you can get a clear idea of what's working or not. You'll notice the importance of the video and the perks. Take a look at how people describe their idea and what's noticeable about it (Compete.com is very useful for that also).
5 – Get closer to the press and influential blogs by reaching out with a brief introduction to your project. Set up a media kit for your outreach and display the main reasons of how your idea is a future success (check out Storyboard). Provide bloggers with your logo, designs and benefits for their readers. Offer them a product once the campaign is over or an exclusive post. Be appealing and find out what they want out of your relationship.
6 – Decide – very carefully – what will be your perks for your contributors (between 5 and 12 maximum). You don't want to have too many rewards. First, it is a pain for you to organize the shipping. Second, you might lose your audience. It is better to set up limited edition offers for early adopters and define proportional stages so that everyone can participate at some level (especially between 10 and 100 USD; where most people donate). Don't underestimate your lower level contributors. Show them your appreciation by offering more than a simple "thank you". Look for something different (example: free shipping or tickets to a special event at the end of the campaign). If you make them smile, they'll be more willing to participate.
7 – Write a very precise financial plan taking into account your perks (production, shipping, etc.), as well as the actions implemented throughout the campaign (platform, social networks, etc.). Even if your perks don't cost you much, it is important to include them in your total, along with the delivery fees. Make sure you know all the terms of use, so that you don't forget the platform and payment fees (Paypal for instance).
Explain to potential backers where the money is going and how much it costs you.
Draw a clean chart. Transparency is the key.
8 – Set up launch and closing dates of your crowdfunding campaign, along with production and rewards delivery dates. We say a crowdfunding campaign is like a marathon. You'll need a lot of energy and coffee breaks to make it to the end. The appropriate period can vary, but I'd recommend 30 days as an optimal length (90 days is the maximum you can do). It can be hard to keep your audience's attention for more than a month. When you make your plan, don't forget to forecast the production dates after the campaign closing. Your contributors want to know when their rewards will be delivered.
9 – Prepare the ground with your network: Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter contacts (Pinterest, Tumblr and others as well). Try to personalize the messages you send as much as you can . People need to feel involved. Build anticipation for your campaign by talking about it all the time.
Set up a (free) Launchrock.com page to tease your audience about your future campaign launch. This page allows you to expose short glimpses of your project in order to draw people's attention. This is also a great way to collect your would-be contributors email addresses. The goal is obviously to get as many as you can. To make this easier, implement a contest to push people to register, like, and share your campaign.
10 – Backing up some projects beforehand will help your crowdfunding credibility. On most of the platforms, your creator profile will be displayed. With that, everyone can get a better idea of your crowdfunding experience by your activity and donations to other projects. I'm not saying you should pour millions into strangers' campaigns, but displaying significant donations and activity can make a difference.
11 – Talk about your projects from a backer's point of view, not yours. What's your added value? Why would I invest in your campaign rather than someone else's? Be mysterious and surprise your potential contributors.
Last but not least, remember to keep your audience in the loop. Your story should never stop being shared.
Feel free to reach out to me for any further help.

Today December 15th is World Otaku Day!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 now I know some may say the word Otaku can mean something bad. But I like to take it and turn it into something good. I do not mind being called an Otaku. Otaku in Japanese mean nerd. So I am going to celebrate.
So to celebrate us being anime and manga lovers. I want to hear everyone's reason why they love anime, manga or gaming. Whatever falls under the Otaku fanatic world.
I'll start first:
The reasons I love anime and manga are because it is life! First, I love the storyline and the plots that keeps me engaged in the series or stories.
The characters and watching or reading about their journey and seeing them grow. Another thing about the characters are the hot men. My fan girl moments. I love the different characters from the hero, to the emo, to the flamboyant to the angry female. The range can go on for days.
My most favorite thing about anime and manga are the cliffhangers. When I think I am done with an episode or a chapter I have to keep going because I must know what happens next. There have been times I stayed up all night watching a whole series or reading 4 manga books. Hahah
So that is just a few things about why I love anime.
So my fellow OTAKUS tell me why you love anime? Can't wait to hear your stories.

Last year Craig completed the 26.2-mile run in just under 3 hours and 49 minutes and raised an amazing £5,074.89, funding at least two potentially life-saving missions for the Charity. This year he is upping the ante and has chosen not only to run the marathon again, but to do it dressed as a tractor in a bid to break the Guinness World Record for the quickest time running the London Marathon dressed as a heavy good vehicle. To break the record, he must run it in less than 4 hours 55 minutes carrying the scale model -tractor, supported by a harness which he will have strapped to his back. He hopes to raise a similar amount to last year, taking his overall total to £10,000 – enough to fund at least four missions. Lincolnshire Fundraising Manager - Gemma Shaw said: "It is amazing that Craig has chosen to support the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance again and even more so when you think that he will be running the entire distance dressed as a tractor. It is no mean feat and he deserves every penny donated. A marathon for most people is a challenge – never mind adding the weight of such an amazing costume. Good luck Craig – you should be quite easy to spot on the TV, so I'm sure there will be lots of people watching out for you and your tractor!" Craig is no stranger to running long distances or running in home-made costumes. He also ran the Paris Marathon in 2016 and last year run the Morton & Gainsborough 10k dressed as our iconic yellow Ambucopter as part of his marathon training. Craig added: "This year I wanted to go even further than last year so being a farmer I came up with the idea of wearing a tractor costume. It is a scale version of a tractor that we do use on the farm. It is actually not as heavy as you think, but when the wind hits you, it is really difficult to control so I am hoping for a fairly nice, sunny day for the Marathon. As farmers we work in isolated places, so the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance is crucial. I am happy to support this valuable Charity again!" If Craig's story has spurred you on, why not sign up for your own challenge? We still have Charity places left for the Nottingham 10k on August 12 and the Great North Run on September 9. Entry is free, we just ask that you pledge to raise sponsorship for our life-saving Charity.

Which of the Big Three Auto Parts Chains Should You Invest In?
The auto parts industry is a tale of two markets, with the largest players, Advance Auto Parts , AutoZone , and O'Reilly Automotive , benefiting to different degrees.
There are two key markets in the auto parts business: the "Do-It-Yourself" Auto Aftermarket (DIY) and the "Do-It-for-Me" Commercial Auto Aftermarket (commercial market). The former relates to individuals who repair their own vehicles without the assistance of mechanics, while the latter comprises those who send their cars to the shop for repairs. According to data from the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association (AAIA) 2014 Factbook, the commercial market ($59 billion) is about 25% larger than the DIY market ($47 billion), based on annual sales.
There are two key reasons the commercial market is bigger and also expected to grow faster than the DIY market in the near future. Firstly, vehicles are becoming more technologically advanced and complex, resulting in more car owners turning to professionals for assistance. Secondly, it's all about opportunity cost. The time spent on repairing one's own car might be better utilized elsewhere that is more profit enhancing, like taking a part-time job or getting additional educational qualifications.
Closing the gap
While AutoZone is the top player in the DIY market, it only has a 2% market share of the commercial market and is trying to further build its presence there. AutoZone has several initiatives in place to do that.
Firstly, AutoZone will add new commercial sales programs. It already added 174 new programs for fiscal 2014, compared with 93 programs during the same period a year ago. Secondly, AutoZone targets to increase its per program productivity. With about 30% of its commercial programs under three years old, AutoZone has the potential to grow average revenue per program as these "young" programs mature. Thirdly, it wants to increase its hard parts product availability, given that hard parts account for the bulk of commercial market demand.
Recent results have been encouraging. AutoZone grew its sales from the commercial market by 13.6% for the trailing 12 months. However, with close to only three-quarters of its 3,000 odd stores in the U.S. having commercial sales programs, there still remains ample room for growth.
Transformative acquisition
Unlike AutoZone, which has chosen to build up its commercial market presence organically at the moment, Advance Auto Parts has transformed itself with the completion of the acquisition of its peer, General Parts International in January this year. While the commercial market used to account for 40% of Advance Auto Parts' total revenues, it will contribute approximately 55% of the combined entity in the future.
General Parts boasts two leading commercial brands: WORLDPAC, the market leader in wholesale delivery of import parts, and CARQUEST, a distributor of auto parts to commercial (85% of sales) and retail customers. WORLDPAC has gained the trust of professionals over the years, as evidenced by it being named Overall Best Program Distributor for Replacement Parts as part of Frost & Sullivan's survey of automotive technicians.
On the other hand, CARQUEST is a brand with a a history that spans half a century, and it owns more than 1,200 stores across the country. Advance Auto Parts plans to achieve synergies between its operations and that of CARQUEST by transferring the commercial capabilities of CARQUEST to Advance stores, and vice-versa, passing on its DIY capabilities to CARQUEST.
Advance Auto Parts has made progress in expanding its commercial business. In the most recent fourth quarter of 2013, its commercial sales mix increased from 38.1% the same quarter a year ago to 40.4% now, moving it closer to its 55% commercial sales mix target.
Back to basics
While both AutoZone and Advance Auto Parts have grown their commercial business by organic and inorganic means, respectively, it is worth keeping in mind the critical success factors of any parts business, notwithstanding the identity of the end-customer (commercial or retail). Nothing frustrates a customer more than having to go to multiple stores to get all the parts he needs.
O'Reilly Automotive has the best parts availability in the industry, thanks to its extensive distribution infrastructure that ensures all its stores have sufficient inventories. It has 24 distribution centers, each stocking 147,000 SKUs, sending parts to its service stores at least five times a week. O'Reilly Automotive has plans to add two new distribution centers by the end of the year.
More importantly, O'Reilly Automotive also has the highest commercial sales mix among its peers, at 42%. This serves as an indication that its commercial customers appreciate its industry-leading parts availability.
Foolish final thoughts
The commercial market's growth hasn't escaped the attention of large auto parts chains seeking to gain a share of the pie. However, a successful auto parts retailer is defined by its parts availability, and not who it sells to. In that aspect, O'Reilly Automotive stands out from its peers and is the best-positioned to benefit from the growth of the commercial market.

In every series we always have our favorite characters who we secretly or publicly pray and hope not to die throughout the seasons. While there are many favorable characters in TWD, probably one who captured most fans' hearts is Glenn Rhee. But pray as we might not to lose him on the show, this was not his fate. His death was horrific and a shock. And they were all unprepared. We were all unprepared. It was very hurtful for all the fans that we were expecting to see him alive and well in the next episode. But it didn't happen.
Let's recall Glenn's character in the series and how his death affected the running of the show, specifically his wife, Maggie and of course, Rick. Glenn was the main supply runner for the Atlanta camp group and he saved Rick Grimes and brought him to reunite with his family. Bright, loyal, resourceful and quick on his feet, Glenn was also very positive, and he maintained a youthful enthusiasm for life. He was an integral part of the group. He was in a relationship with Maggie and she became his wife. We've known that he was born to Korean immigrants with his sisters and became a pizza delivery boy at twenty when he moved to Atlanta. And that started his fate with the group. Glenn obviously was uncomfortable with killing living people. Remember when he started crying after he stabbed a member of the Saviors? Now, who would not want to adore this kind of person. Although he surely will kill living people when his community and loved ones are threatened or harmed, especially Maggie and his unborn child.
Glenn's death broke our hearts into pieces the same way Negan broke his head and brain. If all fans were watching together, there would surely be an uproar heard altogether. It was like a sudden lightning tearing the starry, dreamy sky that we've been watching with adorable eyes. So heartbreaking. His death brought forth shock and terror to his companions. But it made them strong too, especially Maggie. She had grown sternly independent, hardened over time. If she was struggling with her emotional weakness before, now, she has shown to stand for what she believes in, became an important voice in the group and soon became the leader of the population of Hilltop. Glenn's death made her strong. And there's only one purpose of her being strong, that is to fight against The Saviors who took Glenn away from her.
It was not only Glenn's death that affected Rick so much, but also Abraham's. Negan's taunting caused him to keep seeing his two companions and their unfortunate death. Rick promised he will personally kill Negan for what he did to Glenn. Thus, he is the main leader in the war against Negan and the Saviors.
It was very unfortunate to lose Glenn in the series. However, it added more thrill to the show and thus garnered many nominations for several awards not to mention the very favorable Nielsen ratings at the start of the show. We may have lost Glenn, but there's more characters in the show worth our love and devotion. And we know that we will never forget him as the show progresses because there would be no TWD without Glenn Rhee.

This reporter has for a long time been pleading for better opposition for the Greens second team. Well here they certainly got it and in spadefuls.
Two things have to be mentioned. The first is that Mowden Park have thrown a lot of time, effort and money in recruiting a very strong squad and we have to retain a certain amount of scepticism that this could be their standard seconds outfit , for example they were beaten 50-20 last week by Blaydon. The second point is that for some reason the Foresters just didn`t turn up and were outclassed and outplayed in all departments. It had to happen sometime and this was the night.
From the start a jittery loose pass gifted Darlington seven points and the next twenty minutes were mayhem ! Darlington were bigger, stronger, faster and quicker thinking than their visitors, helped by the fact that the Greens poor tackling , passing and line outs kept them constantly under the cosh. The score at half time 47-0 to the home team. Could they reach a century was asked ? Visiting supporters in conjunction with the players were shell shocked.
The second half was much better for the Greens, contributory factors being that Darlington replaced some of their star players, Wharfedale stiffened their pack with Neil Dickinson now on and the pack as a whole even gained ascendancy in the scrums. As a result of this the visitors scored two tries by Alex Powell and Antony Oxley, both converted by James Druce and the two try scorers along with Jim Mason must be given praise for sterling work throughout. Rees Davies, coming on as sub also contributed well in defence and attack. Without seeming churlish, it was difficult to laud the performances of the backs. Sorry lads but you just had a bad hair day !
Whilst this mini resurgence for the Foresters was taking place, the home side kept up the pressure by scoring two tries, both converted, but it did mean that the second period was 14-14. Were the Foresters disgraced ? Not at all, it was one of those days and undoubtedly with the help of their excellent coaches a great deal will be learned from this encounter. It will also be very interesting to see what team Mowden Park bring to the Avenue in the return match ? Several of the players in this Foresters side hope to ,at some stage, play in National One. This game provided some idea of what is required to play at that level and how much work they will have to put in to reach that gaol. The team which is quite changed from the last two seasons, will also show improvement by playing together. All is not lost !
This report is submitted before the 1st team encounter, against Mowden Park at home. That should be interesting if we used the Foresters game as a guide line.

The last few years have seen the emergence of an entirely new field in globular cluster studies - the recognition that elliptical galaxies contain more than a single population of globular clusters. This makes globular clusters even more valuable as tools to study how elliptical galaxies formed, since the presence of more than a single population implies more than a single formation process and/or epoch. We will present a brief overview of the history of this new field, with emphasis on the present status of observations and comments on preferred observational techniques. In particular, we will present some new data on several of the prototypical globular cluster systems - those in M87 and NGC 1399. We also will discuss the interesting case of NGC 1427, a low luminosity elliptical in the Fornax cluster, as well as present new HST data on color distributions of very distant cluster systems.

Distribution of smart national identity cards among the residents of Dasiachhara, a remote ex-enclave under Phulbari of Kurigram, began on Monday.
Chief election commissioner Kazi Rakibuddin Ahmed handed over smart NID cards to 20 residents of the ex-enclave at a programme of NID card distribution at Kalirhat bazar in Dasiachhara around 12:30pm.
Addressing the programme, the CEC said, 'Smart NID card is a vital document of one's citizenship. Preserve it with care. The government has done a lot for your development. Prepare yourselves to grow as worthy citizens to establish your rights.'
The CEC further said, 'These cards have been imported. These valuable cards have to be preserved carefully. If it is lost it will be an expensive and time-consuming process to get it back.'
Election commissioner Shah Nawaz, commissioner Md Abu Hafiz, commissioner Md Abdul Mobarak, Kurigram deputy commissioner Khan Md Nurul Amin, among others, spoke at the programme jointly organised by the district administration and the upazila election office.
Expressing her joy after receiving the smart NID card, Champa Khatu, a resident of Dasiachhara, said, 'Today, we got the identity of Bangladesh. It's great! Now we're smart citizens.'
Deputy commissioner Nurul Amin said the residents of Dasiachhara are getting the smart NID cards within one year of the enclave exchange under a pilot project of the Election Commission. Some 1.14 lakh residents of Phulbari upazila will all get the smart NID cards gradually.
The home ministry on April 11 last published a gazette notification providing a total of 37,535 enclave dwellers with Bangladesh citizenship in line with the Citizenship Act 1951.
The EC could not enroll Bangladeshi nationals residing in the 51 enclaves adversely located within the Indian territories despite its several efforts since 2008 as the home and foreign ministries did not give clearance saying that the issue of exchanging enclaves between the two neighbouring countries was under active consideration.
Following the ratification of LBA by Indian Loka Sabha and Rajya Sabha unanimously in May 2015, the LBA was implemented from the midnight of July 31, 2015 ending the decade-old sufferings of the people living in enclaves on both sides of Bangladesh and India.
Under the agreement, India exchanged 111 enclaves measuring 17,160 acres to Bangladesh and received 51 enclaves covering 7,110 acres. The enclaves' people had the option to choose the citizenship of either Bangladesh or India.

Fortune Seekers
It was not mineral wealth that originally brought Americans from the East to the Rocky Mountains in the early 1800s; it was a demand for hats made of beaver fur. Pelts brought $5.99 a pound in Philadelphia in the early 1830s, a period that saw at least 500 trappers, those whom contemporary society refers to as the mountain men, plying their trade in the Rockies. The 1830s also saw several trading posts established on the Arkansas and South Platte Rivers to cater to the trade in beaver furs and a growing trade with the Indians for buffalo robes. A shift in fashion to silk hats and falling prices for beaver pelts led most mountain men to look for other occupations by the 1840s, but the commerce in buffalo robes flourished.
Business was also booming to the south. Just a few months after Mexican independence from Spain in 1821, a party of six Missourians arrived in Santa Fe, the first Americans to enter the royal city without risk of imprisonment. Tied to their horses were a few packs of goods which they sold at an enormous profit. For the next several decades, wagon caravans drawn by mules and oxen would annually travel what became known as the Santa Fe Trail, carrying cloth and other manufactured items to New Mexico and beyond and bringing back Mexican silver in return.
After gold was discovered in Colorado in 1858, a different breed of fortune seeker flooded to that portion of the Front Range loosely referred to as the Pike's Peak gold regions. Most came to dig for the valuable metal; others came to make profits off the diggers. When gold was found in South Park in 1859, the town of Colorado City sprang up on Fountain Creek, its businessmen intent on supplying those gold seekers using the Ute Pass route to the Park. Denver City and Auraria had already been established the previous year.
While few found their fortunes in the diggings, many discovered that they could make a living here. Various crops could be grown along stream valleys, and the native Grama and Buffalo grasses were ideal for ranching. The arrival of the railroad in Colorado Territory in 1870 gave these settlers access to distant markets. It also brought more fortune seekers, homesteaders, and a spurt of town building along the tracks.

Everyone can get in a food rut where they eat the same old, same old every night and don't experience different cuisine. You may think that it is hard to find tasty, international cuisine in Harrisonburg, but it isn't. There are pleanty of restaurants in the Harrisonburg community that cater to international foods.
Take Tutti Gusti, located right off of campus, they feature delicious Italian food that won't put a major dent in your wallet. Throughout the year they have lots of different deals like buy one get one half off of pizza. An attractive bonus for any college student- they also deliver! Being half Italian myself, I can say this food is up to par. One of my favorites is the classic spaghetti and meatballs. If you're feeling a little more adventurous, maybe try their calamari.
If you're in the mood for Mexican, try El Charro. With a large selection on their menu, you can't go wrong. If you go, you have to get the queso dip for an appetizer, it is amazing. And anything with guacamole on the menu is a great choice. When I went with a group of friends, the general consensus was that the chimichanga was the best.
There are a lot of differnt Chineese food restaurants in Harrisonburg and I've tried a lot of them. My preference is for Great Wok. Their dumblings are amazing.
As you can see, there are pleanty of places in the Harrisonburg community that feature international cuisine and are not terribly expensive. You just have to venture out and try them!

This week's offering's are almost GONE. Please check them out now. Whenever an offering closes, I receive distraught messages saying: "I didn't check the blog… I didn't receive the email…" so here's another reminder.
Write AND Sell Your Ebooks With Angela's No-Fail Ebook Sales Formula
Why TWO offerings? It's a long story and concerns a group of writers I'm coaching, so I won't share it. Julia suggested that since we were offering the two programs to writing students anyway, we should offer them to our loyal readers because you deserve it, and that's so true. Thanks for reading — I truly appreciate YOU. Enjoy. 🙂
Important: please be aware that every writing guide and class we offer is DIFFERENT – there's no rehashed material. We need to make this plain because we always receive questions about programs which are on similar topics. Read the program descriptions, and if you're not sure which is right for you, ask – we love to hear from you. 🙂

One of the most interesting items last week was the release of an interactive research tool, Generation MEdia, based on 1, 342 survey responses from millennials across the country. The tool allows users to find out the number of hours per week the average Millennial spends on an activity, their communication preferences, and what part of the day they like to use various communication tools. Users can filter the responses based on gender, age, geographic region, and the respondent's age range when they owned their first cell phone.
For example, I found that 57% of females living in the Northeast over the age of 18, who owned their first cell phone between the ages of 10-12, are active on Facebook all day. With this resourceful tool on hand, nonprofits will know which communication method should be used to communicate with Millennials living in their regions.
Also, be sure to check out these stories below:
The New Demographics: Nine Facts about the Changing Face of America
"For those of us who have been in marketing for years, the ubiquitous demographics fell into chunks of age groups, marital status, presence of children, job title and ethnicities that allowed us to purchase mass audiences with ease. While those demos might change per product, the world seemed a static place. But today's world is changing in ways we could not have imagined at the heyday of mass media. We need to adjust our thinking and our marketing to these new realities."
Brown to debut The Millennials
" If you were born during the years 1982 to 2004, then you are a Millenial. 'What exactly IS a Millennial? And what do these Millennials want?" you might ask. The answer to those questions is precisely what Justin Adam Brown will attempt to answer with the debut of his new Internet talk show at the Mall at Steamtown next week."
Millennials: The Volunteer Generation (Audio)
"For a generation often accused of being self-absorbed and narcissistic, millennials are managing to prove preconceptions wrong by volunteering in record numbers."
Quit Trying To 'Engage' Millennials
"It's all the rage right now in the media and in leadership forums and discussion groups to talk about how to 'engage' Millennials in the workforce, to ensure we're able to capitalize on their strengths and abilities, while embracing their differences in worldview, approach, and values compared with other generations they work alongside of."
Did any of these stand out to you? Will you be joining Justin in Carbondale for the premier of The Millennials? Let me know! Hope to hear from you soon.

"The news is true. Our bosses wore long faces this morning. They have not said anything to us yet", the source said.

Two or three times a year I hear the question. Does anyone have any good fundraisers?
This comes from overworked youth ministers who don't want to spend their time and energy doing car washes that raise a few $100. Volunteer Sunday School teachers who never knew they signed up to be fundraisers for youth. Parents who don't want to have to do a monthly fundraiser each month where they have to move flamingos, bake brownies, and send their youth to rake leaves somewhere once again.
These are all good fundraisers and in some places can work. I know because I have led all of these plus a massive Christmas tree lot, silent auctions, chili sales, child drop and shop, dog-walking, serve-athon, walk-a thon, recycling program, and finally dance-a-thon. So after doing all of those and taking into account the amount of work I had to do vs. the level of success I had. This is my favorite.

A common occurrence in many congregations is a backpack blessing service. BuildFaith.org has a great article on these services at Blessing of the Backpack's 6 Tips for Success.
At EYCArkansas, we began wondering what this would look like with an older mindset and as part of a youth group or youth Sunday school meeting. We used prayers from Call on Me: A Prayer Book for Young People, the Book of Common Prayer and the New Zealand Prayer Book and came up with a great liturgy that any group can use. We have shared below a copy that you can take and print or edit to your heart's content.
"According to the constitution, the Episcopal Church in Arkansas gathers once a year to govern the congregations that make up the Diocese of Arkansas. We worship, we celebrate, we listen, we speak, we debate, and we vote. It is a large event with a large amount of work needing to be done.
The first part of the convention is our gathering, which happens on Friday evening. We celebrate the sacraments in a festive Holy Eucharist. All of the clergy vest and process, the Bishop preaches and presides, and afterwards, we continue to enjoy being the church in community at a reception.

Snapped some photos while walking around Harlem with Shaun. I'm wearing Kenneth Cole's re interpreted version of the AIDS ribbon. 100% of the net profit go to AWARENESS, the Kenneth Cole foundation. The weather is on and off Saturday as many of you already know it snowed like I have NEVER seen it before, for October I think it's safe to say that that was a little out of the norm.
By the way today is the LAST day of the R&Em 30 day bag give away....I'll be posting later today.

What backup procedures you would implement in a Cisco based Router Network to safeguard loss of data?
Describe what backup procedures you would implement in a Cisco based Router Network to safeguard loss of configuration data. Describe any commands used to save data.
I'd simply save copies of the running configuration - "show running-config" and copy and paste the data out of your terminal window. Also be sure to save it as the startup configuration - "copy running-config startup-config" so it survives if the router needs to be rebooted.
I have been in Cisco networking for a long time...there are two solutions I can think of that work relatively well for this. One is a commercial solution that works really well and costs a small amount of money. The other is a free linux based solution which doesn't cost any money, but it takes a pretty good amount of linux knowledge to set it up and get it working. The commercial solution is Kiw iCAT Tools which is owned by SolarWinds now. This solution runs on Windows and is relatively easy to setup. It will backup your configurations automatically on a schedule and then email you if there is a change. Personally for the money I think it costs about 600 dollars I would use Kiwi Cat Tools. The other solution is called RanCID. Rancid is a program that runs in the crontab of a linux box and does basically the same thing. Rancid works well but it can be a real pain to setup if you don't know linux very well and it is not for the faint of heart. Personally I have used both and would prefer Kiwi. I currently use RanCID because I didn't want to spend the money for Kiwi and I am pretty good with Linux.
I'd start with "write erase" or "erase start", and follow that up with "reload".

CINCINNATI, Ohio—A visit to these haunted colleges and universities throughout the Garden State may not be for the faint of heart. L'Aura Hladik chronicles over thirty spooky New Jersey spots including libraries, restaurants, and hotels in her new book, "Ghosthunting New Jersey." A perfect companion for the adventurous student, Hladik's book will give you chills—and may have you on the edge of your seat in class.
- Mead Hall at Drew University says higher education and the supernatural make for a well-rounded degree. Roxana's ghost appeared to two firemen the day of the great fire in Mead Hall.
- Centenary College has the ghost of Tillie Smith, and she can be seen on the campus grounds and in her old dormitory, as well as at Union Cemetery in Hackettstown. She was murdered in 1886 while defending her honor. Her ghost still seeks to protect the female students on campus.
- Hobart Manor at William Paterson University is an elegant manor which dates to 1877 and is home to the University's administrative offices now. The ghost of Mrs. Hobart still makes her rounds as a hostess.
- The Raritan Library claims of haunting: just a media stunt, or are they driven by the deeds of resident spirits? A respected psychic and one unnerved little boy would argue for the latter.
- The Bernardsville Library has a library card on file for Phyllis Parker, but she was long dead before she ever acquired it. Her story is one of the many tragic moments of Revolutionary War history.
Hladik's interest in the paranormal started in childhood and culminated with living in an actual haunted rental house when she was in eighth grade. She officially began hunting for ghosts in 1993 and eventually founded the New Jersey Ghost Hunters Society, which is the largest organization of its kind in the "Garden State."
"Ghosthunting New Jersey" by L'Aura Hladik (ISBN 978-1-57860-326-8) was published by Clerisy Press in September 2008. The 250-page paperback lists for $14.95.

Terry White Chemists Metoprolol Tablets
Terry White Chemists Metoprolol Tablets
Contains the active ingredient metoprolol tartrate
Consumer Medicine Information
For a copy of a large print leaflet, Ph: 1800 195 055
What is in this leaflet
Read this leaflet carefully before taking your medicine.
This leaflet answers some of the common questions about metoprolol. It does not contain all the information. It does not take the place of talking to your doctor and pharmacist.
The information in this leaflet was last updated on the date listed on the last page. More recent information on this medicine may be available.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist:
- if there is anything you do not understand in this leaflet,
- if you are worried about taking your medicine, or
- to obtain the most up-to-date information.
You can also download the most up to date leaflet from www.apotex.com.au.
All medicines have risks and benefits. Your doctor has weighed the risks of you using this medicine against the benefits they expect it will have for you.
Pharmaceutical companies cannot give you medical advice or an individual diagnosis.
Keep this leaflet with your medicine. You may want to read it again.
What this medicine is used for
The name of your medicine is Terry White chemists Metoprolol tablets. It contains the active ingredient metoprolol.
It is used:
- to treat high blood pressure, also called hypertension
- to prevent a type of chest pain, also called angina
- after a heart attack
- to prevent migraine headaches.
Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why this medicine has been prescribed for you. Your doctor may have prescribed it for another reason.
How it works
Everyone has blood pressure. This pressure helps to move your blood around your body. Your blood pressure may be different at various times of the day, depending on how busy you are.
You have hypertension (high blood pressure) when your blood pressure stays higher than is needed, even when you are calm and relaxed. If high blood pressure is not treated it can lead to serious health problems, including stroke, heart disease and kidney failure.
There are usually no symptoms of hypertension. The only way of knowing that you have it is to have your blood pressure checked on a regular basis. You may feel fine and have no symptoms but, if high blood pressure is not treated, it can lead to serious health problems. Metoprolol helps to lower your blood pressure.
Angina is a pain or uncomfortable feeling in the chest, often spreading to the arms or neck and sometimes to the shoulders and back. This may be caused by too little blood and oxygen getting to the heart. The pain of angina is usually brought on by exercise or stress but it can also happen while you are resting.
Metoprolol helps to prevent angina from happening. It is not used to treat a sudden attack.
Reducing heart complications after heart attack
After a heart attack there is a chance of developing complications such as an irregular heart beat (also called an arrhythmia) or another heart attack.
Metoprolol helps to prevent these conditions from happening.
This is a throbbing headache, usually affecting one side of the head and often accompanied by nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light.
Metoprolol belongs to a group of medicines called beta-blockers. It works by affecting the body's response to some nerve impulses, especially in the heart. As a result, it decreases the heart's need for blood and oxygen and reduces the amount of work that the heart has to do. It also widens the blood vessels in the rest of the body.
Metoprolol can be used alone or in combination with other medicines to treat your condition.
Metoprolol is only available with a doctor's prescription.
There is no evidence that this medicine is addictive.
Use in children
Metoprolol is not recommended for use in children.

Before you start to take it
Before you start taking this medicine, tell your doctor if:

Taking other medicines
Tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines, including medicines that you buy without a prescription from a pharmacy, supermarket or health food shop.
Some medicines may interact with metoprolol. These include:
- other beta-blocker medicines
- other medicines used to treat high blood pressure such as calcium channel blockers, clonidine and hydralazine

- dipyridamole, a medicine use to reduce the risk of blood clots.
If you are taking any of these you may need a different dose or you may need to take different medicines.
Other medicines not listed above may also interact with metoprolol.
How to take this medicine
Follow carefully all directions given to you by your doctor. Their instructions may be different to the information in this leaflet.
How much to take
Your doctor will tell you how much of this medicine you should take. This will depend on your condition and whether you are taking any other medicines.
Do not stop taking your medicine or change your dosage without first checking with your doctor.
High blood pressure:
The usual dose is from 50 mg to 200 mg each day, either as a single dose or divided into two doses.
The usual dose is from 100 mg to 300 mg each day, divided into two or three doses.
After a heart attack:
The usual dose is 200 mg each day, divided into two doses.
To prevent migraine:
The usual dose is from 100 mg to 150 mg each day, divided into two doses (morning and evening).
How to take it
Swallow the tablets whole with a full glass of water.
It does not matter if you take metoprolol before or after food.
How long to take it
Continue taking metoprolol for as long as your doctor tells you.
Metoprolol helps to control your symptoms but it does not cure your condition. Your doctor will check your progress to make sure the medicine is working and will decide how long your treatment should continue.
Talk to your doctor if you are not sure how long you need to take your medicine for.
Make sure you have enough to last over weekends and holidays.
If you forget to take it
If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take your next dose at the usual time.
Otherwise, take it as soon as you remember, and then go back to taking your medicine as you would normally.
Do not take a double dose to make up for the one that you missed. This may increase the chance of you getting an unwanted side effect.
If you have trouble remembering when to take your medicine, ask your pharmacist for some hints to help you remember.
If you take too much
If you think that you or anyone else may have taken too much of this medicine, immediately telephone your doctor or Poisons Information Centre (telephone 13 11 26) for advice. Alternatively, go to Accident and Emergency at your nearest hospital.
Do this even if there are no signs or discomfort or poisoning. You may need urgent medical attention.
Symptoms of an overdose may include feeling sick and vomiting, bluish skin and nails, very low blood pressure, slow heart beat, difficulty breathing, fainting, convulsions (fits), coma or death.
While you are taking this medicine
Things you must do
Tell your doctor, dentist or pharmacist that you are taking this medicine if:
- you are about to be started on any new medicine
- you are pregnant or are planning to become pregnant
- you are breastfeeding or are planning to breastfeed
- you are about to have any blood tests
Be sure to keep all of your doctor's appointments so that your progress can be checked. This helps your doctor to give you the best treatment and to prevent unwanted side effects from happening.
If you become pregnant while taking metoprolol, tell your doctor immediately. Your doctor can discuss with you the risks and benefits of taking it while you are pregnant.
If you have an allergic reaction to a food, another medicine or an insect sting while you are taking metoprolol, tell your doctor immediately. There is a chance that metoprolol could make the allergic reaction worse or harder to treat.
If you feel light-headed, dizzy or faint when getting out of bed or standing up, get up slowly. You may feel light-headed or dizzy when you start to take metoprolol.
This is because your blood pressure is falling suddenly. If this problem doesn't go away, talk to your doctor.
To avoid symptoms of low blood pressure, here are some hints that may help:
- Stand up slowly to help your body get used to the change in position and blood pressure
- If you feel dizzy, sit or lie down until you feel better
- If you feel faint, breathe deeply and bend forward with your head between your knees
- Take extra care when exercising, driving or standing for long periods, especially in hot weather. Drink plenty of fluids, especially if you sweat a lot.
If you are being treated for diabetes, make sure you check your blood sugar regularly and report any problems to your doctor. Metoprolol may change how well your diabetes is controlled. It may also prevent some of the warning signs of low blood sugar, such as fast heart beat, and may make low blood sugar last longer. The dose of your diabetes medicines may need to be changed.
If you plan to have surgery and will need an anaesthetic, tell your doctor or dentist that you are taking metoprolol. This will help your doctor to prevent unwanted side effects such as a sudden drop in blood pressure.
Tell any other doctor, dentist or pharmacist who treats you that you are taking metoprolol.
Things you must not do
Do not:
- Give this medicine to anyone else, even if their symptoms seem similar to yours.
- Take your medicine to treat any other condition unless your doctor tells you to.
- Stop taking your medicine, or change the dosage, without first checking with your doctor.
Your doctor may want to gradually reduce the amount of metoprolol you are taking before stopping it completely. This helps to reduce the chance of your condition becoming worse or keep other unwanted heart problems from happening.
Things to be careful of
Be careful driving, operating machinery or doing jobs that require you to be alert while you are taking metoprolol until you know how it affects you. As with other beta-blocker medicines, metoprolol may cause dizziness, lightheadedness or decreased alertness in some people.
If you have any of these symptoms, do not drive or do anything else that could be dangerous.
Be careful to dress warmly during cold weather, especially if you will be outside for a long time. Like other beta-blocker medicines, metoprolol may make you more sensitive to cold temperatures, especially if you have problems with your blood circulation. These medicines tend to decrease blood circulation in the skin, fingers and toes.
Possible side effects
Tell your doctor as soon as possible if you do not feel well while you are taking metoprolol or if you have any questions or concerns.
Do not be alarmed by the following lists of side effects. You may not experience any of them. All medicines can have side effects. Sometimes they are serious but most of the time they are not.
If you are over 65 years of age, you may have an increased chance of getting side effects.
Tell your doctor if you notice any of the following:
- tiredness, drowsiness, decreased alertness
- dizziness, spinning sensation (vertigo), light-headedness
- headache or other aches and pains
- difficulty sleeping, nightmares
- stomach ache or upset, nausea (feeling sick) or vomiting
- diarrhoea or constipation
- dry or irritated eyes, blurred vision
- dry mouth
- increased sweating
- runny or blocked nose
- abnormal triglycerides or cholesterol values, or liver function tests during treatment with metoprolol
- sleepiness during the day or troubled sleep
Tell your doctor as soon as possible if you notice any of the following.
These may be serious side effects and you may need medical attention.
- fainting
- depression or other changes in mood
- confusion or loss of memory
- buzzing or ringing in the ears, or other difficulty hearing
- problems with sexual function
- weight gain
- hair thinning
- worsening of psoriasis
- muscle cramps or painful joints
- a tingling sensation
Tell your doctor immediately or go to Accident and Emergency at your nearest hospital if you notice any of the following:
- shortness of breath, sometimes with tiredness, weakness or reduced ability to exercise
- swelling of the feet or legs due to fluid build-up
- coldness, burning, numbness or pain in arms and legs
- chest pain
- pain behind the breastbone (different from angina)
- changes in heart rate (fast, slow, irregular)
- yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), sometimes with pain in the abdomen
- constant "flu-like" symptoms (chills, fever, sore throat, aching joints, swollen glands, tiredness or lack of energy)
- unusual bleeding or bruising
- skin reactions (rash, itching, worsening of psoriasis)
- symptoms of sunburn (redness, itching, swelling, blistering) that happen much more quickly than normal
- abnormal thinking or hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that are not there)
Other side effects not listed above may occur in some patients.
Allergic reactions
If you think you are having an allergic reaction to metoprolol, do not take any more of this medicine and tell your doctor immediately or go to the Accident and Emergency department at your nearest hospital.
Symptoms of an allergic reaction may include some or all of the following:
- cough, shortness of breath, wheezing or difficulty breathing
- swelling of the face, lips, tongue, throat or other parts of the body
- rash, itching or hives on the skin
- fainting
- hay fever-like symptoms.
Storage and Disposal
Keep your tablets in the original container until it is time to take them. If you take your medicine out of its original packaging it may not keep well.
Keep your medicine in a cool dry place where the temperature will stay below 30°C.
Do not store your medicine, or any other medicine, in the bathroom or near a sink. Do not leave it in the car or on window sills. Heat and dampness can destroy some medicines.
Keep this medicine where children cannot reach it. A locked cupboard at least one and-a-half metres above the ground is a good place to store medicines.
If your doctor tells you to stop taking this medicine or it has passed its expiry date, your pharmacist can dispose of the remaining medicine safely.

I was watching Invictus last night, and it reminded me how awesome Jonah Lomu was for the All Blacks at the 1995 World Cup in South Africa. The above video shows his incredible game for the All Blacks versus English Rugby Team in the semi-final. In that game Jonah Lomu scored four tries, providing a showcase for his power, speed, swerve, and running lines. One particular signature world cup try features him bumping of two tackles and then trampling over Mike Catt while trying to regain his balance. Hard to believe he was only 20 years old.
At the tournament Jonah Lomu exploded onto the rugby scene, becoming the first rugby superstar. After the England semi-final, Will Carling was quoted as saying "He is a freak and the sooner he goes away the better".
The youngest player to ever play a test for the All Blacks, he only had two caps going into the World Cup, and he still holds the record for most tries in World Cups, with 15. He also took the 1999 World Cup by the scruff of the neck, scoring 8 tries at that tournament. At the next Rugby World Cup, in New Zealand 2011, Joe Rokocoko will be one of the key challengers to that record should he be selected for the All Blacks. He would have had an extra world cup though, and currently sits at 11 tries from his two tournaments.
Over his career for the All Blacks he played 63 tests and scored 35 tries in a career that went from the amateur error in 1994 to kidney-disorder forced retirement. However, he has made a few attempts at rugby comebacks following a successful kidney transplant and at the time of writing is playing for third division French club team Marseille Vitrolles.
In the movie Invictus Jonah Lomu was played by Isaac Feau'nati and his character was prominent in all discussions regarding the Springboks chances in the final. Despite Lomu battling hard in the match, the Springboks were able to successfully able to target him in defence and he did not score a try. An interesting statistic about Jonah Lomu is that despite all his tries he was never able to score one against South Africa. It has been said that his barnstorming efforts at the 1995 Rugby World Cup in South Africa set in motion the process of rugby turning professional, which happened a year later in 1996.

Bug squashed at last. Kinda.
One thing about WordPress that has been annoying me for quite some time is that it mangles UTF-8 in the subject of e-mail messages it sends out. Consequently, because my site uses the &exists; character, the subject line of messages I get about it are garbage. Apparently this has been a bug in WordPress for quite some time, but I did find that there is a plugin that will fix the problem. Of course I'll need to wait for someone to comment or what not before I'll know whether it truly works.
Also somewhat strange was the other day I received a spam comment after having installed WordPress Hash Cash. This leads me to believe that it is either broken or there are actually people out there spamming from an actual web browser. I suppose in theory it wouldn't be out of the question to robotize a web browser. The arms race continues. I still haven't come up with an effective way of filtering image-based spam. Though I sometimes suspect that some of it gets through because one of my spam filters fails to run if it somehow failed to acquire a lock.
