Aquatic hyphomycetes occur in hyperpolluted waters in Central Germany
Krauss, Gudrun; Bärlocher, Felix; Schreck, Peter; Wennrich, Rainer; Glässer, Walter; Krauss, Gerd-J.
Nova Hedwigia Band 72 Heft 3-4 (2001), p. 419 - 428

Aquatic hyphomycetes are important participants in the decomposition of organic matter in streams and lakes. They are believed to be highly sensitive to some forms of pollution. In the district of Mansfeld in Central Germany, many surface and groundwaters are contaminated with extremely high levels of heavy metals. In a survey of seven sites in this area, a total of 23 distinct forms of aquatic hyphomycetes (18 identified to species) were found to colonize and sporulate on alder leaves. Even at the two most heavily polluted sites, which also contain high sulfate concentrations, seven and ten species were recovered. Spore production in vitro per mg leaf dry mass varied between 0.3 and 2260. Heliscus lugdunensis and Tetracladium marchalianum occurred at all locations. Since these fungi are adapted to aquatic habitats, their apparent resistance to extremely high levels of metals and other pollutants makes them promising candidates for bioremediation. In addition, they provide an interesting model system to study connections between biodiversity and ecological function in impoverished communities.
Aquatic hyphomycetes • fungi • streams • heavy metal pollution • slag heap leachates • inorganic pollution

Simply, there's no better return on your money than great sales copy. So I did the only rational thing. Ask Michel to rewrite another letter and I joined his membership site so I can continue to improve my own skills.Jeff Mulligan

I also wanted to send a BIG thank you for the amazing critique the other night. I was simply shocked at how much stuff you covered in such a short period of time. You literally went through my whole sales letter and told me specific things I needed to change that could increase my response rate. And that's from a sales letter that's ALREADY converting very high!
Amazing! I'm sitting here with 5 pages of notes with dozens of things I could tweak here and there stuff I would have never thought of on my own. The good news? I started implementing some of the tweaks and I immediately noticed a difference. The conversion went up by 0.5% since. and has brought in over $1,800 in sales within 24 hours after making them.
Keep in mind, I've only used 3 of the things we talked about and I haven't started to advertise the site either (I have a small list of 2,100 or so right now). That one critique taught me things about copy I didn't even realize, some very common mistakes I see all the time by my web design clients, if they made just that one change you talked about I'm sure they'd notice a boost in sales. I can say this for certain, you are one of the top copywriters I've ever seen and your help is proving key to take my business to the next level.
Bottom line? I wouldn't be surprised if those few changes are responsible for over $10,000 (conservative) in profits in my pocket. If anyone is looking to learn how to write better, seeing is believing — and when they see all the value (you offer), they are going to be hooked. It's that good. I'll make sure to buy you a beer when I see you 🙂Dave Mizrachi
I applied what I learned from you and I made more money. I still have so much more to do, to apply all the other tips you've shared. (…) Probably early next year… It will take me that long to polish up my sales letters on the website for my products based on your help. Anyways, thanks!Ken Calhoun
One of our affiliates is pulling a 7.6% and another an incredible 18%! Wow! You are gifted by God to write copy. Some have the gift to sing, some draw… But you, it's writing copy!Stephen Pierce
Who ever said 'Web copy is the hardest part of your product launched' didn't know Michel Fortin was offering his copywriting services. If they did they would have said something like, 'With Michel Fortin's web copy, your hardest part of a product launch is keep up with the orders!' Yet again you have proven that your reputation is 100% accurate — the Best!Raymond McNally
I can guarantee you that Michel is now on my short list for copywriters next time a project comes up. He gave, and someday, he will receive. If you're looking for a copywriter who generates results, you should talk to Michel Fortin.Don Crowther
(After a second letter written for this client) … So far the 2nd web salesletter you did is pulling at around 10%! Thank you for a great job!!! In fact, I don't know what we'd do without you… So, don't go getting hit by a bus or anything!Tameka Sowder
Your suggestions were very easy to understand — even for a 'non-marketer' like me. And the results speak for themselves! Requests for our free reports, subscriptions to our newsletter and website enquiries more than DOUBLED since I implemented your suggestions. I know I can still improve on our copy writing so I will certainly be using your services in the future. I would have no hesitation recommending you to anyone looking to improve their website. In my opinion, the cost is minimal compared to the potential upside.Stuart Weymyss
I will be incorporating ALL your suggestions and sending this piece out again, and using a modified version of it for another market that I'm tackling. By using your suggestions, I'll be able to land those contracts that I want and make a much better income from my business. Thank you again, I can't say that enough. You have challenged me and I appreciate that.Dianne M. Daniels
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of different components that go into writing good copy. Well, by the time you get past number 25, you're bored out of your mind and it becomes difficult to continue your lessons. But what if there was a better way? What if you could 'watch' over the shoulder of a master copywriter as he took existing sales letters, ripped them apart line by line, and then put them back together using secret techniques and knowledge to turn them into automatic cash machines that'll never stop?
Michel Fortin has done just that. (He) lets you watch one of these lessons each month. In fact, the on-screen videos are between 2 and 5 hours long, and they're amazing to watch. I learned more from watching just one of these videos than I have in the past 3 years studying copywriting! After I saw this sample video, I couldn't find the order button fast enough! This really is an amazing way to learn how to write great copy. All your sales efforts will benefit greatly from this powerful resource. Check out the sample video on his website.Joseph Kowal
But you don't have to take my word for it. Get access to a free video sample showing 20 minutes of one of his lessons. Before the film was even half over, I was desperately looking for the button to sign up. It's that good.Pearson Brown
Your critiques are so jam packed with hard selling gems and ad magic that I have yet to watch to more than 1-2 hours on any of them before my hands begin to itch and I have to start changing things on sites I own. So, I would like to say, from the bottom of my non-selling writer's heart, thank you Michel for what MUST be the site that wins the 2004 Internet Grammy award!Kenth Nasstrom
With Michel, you don't just get excellent services and products — you get his astounding depth of knowledge and his unique ability to render complex ideas in simple and easy-to-understand ways. Most importantly, you get an ethical business man who never allows money to compromise his unshakeable values.
If you're on the fence about hiring Michel or purchasing any of his products, take my word for it: you will not be disappointed.Omar Khafagy
I have had the good fortune to work with Michel on a number of projects, in various capacities. And I can tell you that very few people can match his knowledge of sales, marketing and copy; fewer still can add an astute understanding of basic business principles to that marketing mix; and almost none can have all those things PLUS the level of integrity Michel brings to the table.
I trust Michel Fortin implicitly; I would hire him without hesitation; and I recommend him unreservedly.Ray Edwards
His professionalism and integrity is renowned and on top of everything else, he has a big heart and compassion that comes through in all his work and relationships, too. If you have an opportunity to work with Michel, his company, or to get his products I highly recommend that you do so without hesitation.Craig Perrine
He is always ready and willing to give great advice and information. This holds true for those who are brand new to writing copy as well as those who consider themselves 'seasoned'. If you ever need a top-quality copywriter I highly suggest Michel. And for information about his work and to view the same advice I get for free on a regular basis, check out his Success Doctor website. You won't be disappointed!Kristine Wirth
Since 1992, I've been a challenge-driven marketer who loves to build meaningful marketing messages that attract, persuade, and move. If you would like work with me, email me at [email protected]

I had went and got the huawei M886 android phone with flash Priced at $299.00 on the display of phones. Well may i add that was the display. Because what she was offering and doing and the price on the display are three different things. Check this out my total all together was 369.00$... I thought and was told i was getting the 55.00$ plan, insurance on the phone, two hardcover cases i was told where on sale for 10.00$ (which was NOT rang up that way),So, Days later I had and still do have contant dropped calls, my emails hacked into, data reception is on 1x ninty percent of the time not 3g, and to top it off i sometimes do not recieve texts, voice messages, and at times not even an notification of missed/ or recieved calls, nor a notification of service interrupted if i dont pay amount due.
So i thought why in the heck am i paying 55.00$ or 65$ for horrible reception, hacked email/social network accounts, what a waste.

I chose to return the phone for a phone that has no android thinking it would make it harder for others to see my personal life, and hacking into my accounts ontops of gpsing my where abouts, ect. I now have people using my identy, umongst other things cause crickets shady costumer reps, and authorized dealers scamming and ripping people off. I go to down grade this p.o.s. and at first she said they charge 30.00$ restocking fee. I said:" Your gunna charge me to return my phone? really?" well then come to find out that since its an authorized dealer and they have this policy of taking 30% not 30.00$ to take back a phone i just paid 369.00 for less than 4 or 5 days prior of returning my perchase. on top of the fact that i was sent from rep to rep to corprate to store to whatever i think i may have talked to just about every one that workd for cricket it seems. I down grade my phone to the stupid wannabe black berry huawei. look anyway the phone was on display for 54.99$ i got reciepts to show and witnesses been to bbb and im just tired of telling this story i just want what i requested is my full refund back on all i got screwed on so i can get service some where else! and i want the chick that sold it to me to stop messing with my account cause 611 has it on file of her making unauthorized changes to my 4 digit auth. pin.... so next i'll got to the news maybe sue for stress and identity tampering or whatever they did wrong!!

Skip to comments.Drunk driver arrested after 'trying to take deer he hit with car to the emergency room'
Posted on 12/22/2011 2:18:41 PM PST by iowamark
A driver under the influence of alcohol was charged after being stopped by police taking a deer that he had struck with his car to the nearby hospital.
Andrew Caswell, 29, hit the wild animal in the early hours of Monday, according to police.
Caswell and three companions argued over what to do with it before he decided the deer needed to go to the emergency room of a hospital in Greece, New York.
Residents who live near to the scene of the accident and had heard the men talking loudly, gave police a description of the vehicle.
An officer who later pulled the car over discovered the deer had been put in the trunk and had died.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...
A dangerous drunk, but a good-hearted dangerous drunk. I hope he gets sober.
No drunken good deed goes unpunished!
Hold mah beer, anyone?..............
OMG that's right down the street from me
Was that your pet deer Smedley?
So, I guess he wasn't the only drunk in the car. Maybe the deer could have been the designated driver.
Why is this news on the Daily Mail in the UK?
Good thing it wasn't a moose. Jim doesn't have enough bandwidth for that story.
I think that they are trying to point out that there are World-Class drunks in countries other than England.
Yeah, a moose bit someone's sister, and from there it got series....
Sir, we're going to have to ask you to leave...
Whuddah mean you don't take deers? I'm tryin' to help this poor critter! I don't think you have a heart!
Drunk Deer Chili
Grilled Venison Beer Chops
Crock Pot Venison in Beer
Should be "bambalamps".
I'm in the ** phone booth at the stop and go.
Joe versus the deer and the dog.
I think I surfed through an early "Gray's Anatomy" where a deer emergency was one of the story lines.
This excrement-for-brains got into his car and drove with a blood alcohol level of .16. He could have hit another car and injured or killed someone else and/or the three others in his car. Instead he hit a deer. All you Bambi lovers together now: AAAAWWWWW! There are too many deer out there committing suicide on cars already.
Mind you now, this designated drunk is nearly 30 years old, out with his pin head buddies getting wasted when he crumples his hood. And what does he do? He puts the deer in his trunk and drives to a hospital. Ever hear about the level of damage and injury a revived deer can do to a car and its occupants?
"Golly, he had good intentions..." no, he is an IDIOT! They do not treat animals at the Accident & Emergency center of a hospital. They treat the people he might have maimed if he had not hit the stupid ruminant.
Someone can call this dangerous moron good hearted, or a nice guy or whatever. The label I use for this level of stupid is: Obama Voter.
I would have put it in the trunk and headed home to prsent that incredible prize to my fiancee' for dressing and quartering.

The Federal Trade Commission's Julie Brill is slated to leave the agency at the end of the month, opening up the second vacancy on the five-person panel.
Brill, a Democrat, is slated to join Hogan Lovells to help lead the law firm's privacy and security practices. She will also help out with the firm's antitrust work.
"Commissioner Brill's expertise in consumer protection, privacy, and antitrust has been an asset to the agency, and we are sorry to see her leave. We wish her well on her next steps," FTC Chairwoman Edith Ramirez said in a statement.
Brill was nominated by President Obama and joined the commission in 2010. Before that, she worked on consumer protection issues in North Carolina and Vermont.
Last August, Republican Commissioner Joshua Wright resigned from the agency, returning to George Mason University as a law professor. Obama has not nominated a replacement in the months since he left.
The FTC's enforcement has increasingly focused on technology in recent years. And it has challenged a number of high-profile companies including Apple, Google, Amazon, Snapchat, Yelp, AT&T and T-Mobile for various alleged abuses.

When you are injured or hurt in your line of duty, you are entitled to compensation either by the insurance company or your company. How much the settlement is, how long it will be paid, and what you must give up in exchange for the settlement is determined by the agreement between you and your employer or the insurance company. Here are some insights.
Types of workers compensation
There are two settlement options that every employer is entitled to award an injured employee: a lump sum settlement or a structured settlement. Lump sum settlement basically implies that your employer pays you a huge sum of money in one installment and in exchange you give up your rights to ever sue the company as long as you live. Structured settlement on the other hand stipulates a fixed amount of money that you can be paid weekly, monthly or annually for the rest of your life or for a stipulated time period. In structured settlement option, if you pass on, your dependents continue receiving the money.
Which is the best option for you?
Determining what is the best option between a lump sum payment and continuous partial payments depends on factors such as:
Permanent disability- In this case, you will never work again for the rest of your life. The settlement figure should be big enough to comfortably sustain you and your dependents for the rest of your life. If you feel that the company proposed an amount that is lower than what you feel you deserve, don't sign the agreement. Hire an experienced worker's compensation attorney in Los Angeles like the ones at Dini Law and file a petition in a court of law. Most companies don't want to end up in such scenarios; hence they would rather increase the settlement amount and avoid dealing with the law. The best option in this case is the lump sum settlement.
Temporary total disability- In this case, the injury lead to a partial disability and you might be able to work after sometime. Most employers offer structured settlement or what they refer to as time loss compensation. The decision on whether to accept or reject this should be based on existing labor laws in your locality. If the partial payment amount is quite reasonable, it is best to take it since a judge can rule in the company's favor and you might end up with nothing or a lesser amount. Also, any unreimbursed medical expenses should be paid by the company before the settlement is finalized.
Hence, after reading this article on workers compensation settlement options explained, you have no reason to suffer any form of injustice in your workplace.

"The thing women have yet to learn is nobody gives you power. You Just Take It" –Roseanne Barr
You may think that you are small, but remember it was an ant that moved a rubber tree plant. Your size, the position you have on your job, the amount of money you have in the bank or whether or not you are in with the in crowd does not make a difference – it's all in your mind.
Your mind contains the power to do anything and everything, even the power to change the world.
Mother Teresa is a great example of one person changing the world. She became a household name for her good works dedicated to caring for the hungry, the naked, the homeless, the crippled, the blind, the lepers, and all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, people that have been shunned by everyone.
So, what makes your heart race? What makes your joy light shine?
These things are the key to your power. Be guided by the things that move you, the things that improve you, and the things that make you want to move mountains.
So my question to you is do you own your power?

Today we launch The Observer's annual appeal, dedicated this year to repairing lives caught in conflict.
Internationally, we support Médecins Sans Frontières, the Nobel prize-winning charity that brings medical aid to war zones and disaster areas, staunchly independent of governmental interference.
In the UK, we focus on the horror of domestic violence and champion the work of small charities helping victims while challenging the abusers to change.
It is not just the imaginings of old folk shut away in their homes; we are living in an increasingly violent world. Globally, terrorism and war have left shattered lives in their wake, families and whole peoples struggling against grief, insecurity, hunger and disease. In Britain, figures show violent crimes rising, not just in the streets but in our homes as well.
Ours is an era of conflict. That is why The Observer, with the Guardian, Guardian Unlimited and the Guardian Weekly, have chosen for this year's Christmas appeal to support organisations which are endeavouring to bring aid to victims of conflict, to repair the lives of people in crisis and to speak out against violence. Launched today, our appeal supports one international cause and one national one, and invites readers to donate to either or both.
Médecins Sans Frontières provides medical and food aid to marginalised and persecuted people. MSF was started in 1971 by French doctors horrified at the suffering in Nigeria's Biafran war. Their humanitarian movement is now active in more than 80 countries worldwide.
In some places, the focus has been on emergency food aid to combat starvation. In others, it helps to establish or regenerate health services - setting up field hospitals in disaster zones, instituting vaccination programmes, training local people to prevent disease. A key factor in its success is its strict independence from government or external influence.
Martyn Broughton of MSF said: 'To save lives in places where conflict is taking them, you have to show that your medical aid is nothing to do with the warring parties, that you are completely independent of their political and military interests.
'And one way MSF shows its independence is through its finances. We don't take money from governments for our work in war zones where they have a strategic interest. We depend on donations from individuals to maintain our freedom to act where we are needed.'
The respect MSF generates across religious and political divides was acknowledged in 1999, when the charity won the Nobel Peace Prize. It immediately pledged the prize money towards combating five 'neglected' diseases - TB, sleeping sickness, leishmaniasis, malaria and Aids - where access to life-saving drugs is restricted or research into cures is a low priority.
Our appeal will concentrate on MSF's work in Afghanistan, the Caucasus, Colombia, Kashmir, Burundi, Congo and Sudan, where volunteers treat war casualties as well as victims of urban strife, epidemics, malnutrition and sexual violence.
In the UK, we take up the fight against domestic violence. Unbelievably, more than half a million women suffer serious incidents of this every year and it is estimated that one in four women will be abused - verbally, physically, sexually, emotionally - in their lifetime. It occurs across all ages, ethnic groups and social classes. And, of course, children and men suffer too.
Rather than choose a single organisation, we will highlight a group of projects nationally that reflect the range of help needed in this field. Our choice has been made with the assistance of New Philanthropy Capital, a charity that gives independent guidance to people, trusts and companies seeking to support charities.
Half the projects are in London and the South East: Refuge, the largest provider of beds for women fleeing violence, also offers specialist children's services and is launching a national helpline with Women's Aid; Advance provides case workers to help women alongside police and social services; the Nia Project resettles women in their own area, challenging the convention that victims should be sent away from their abusers; and the Domestic Violence Intervention Project runs programmes for perpetrators which aim to challenge and change abusive behaviour.
The other four are spread across the UK: Halt, in Leeds, provides specialist legal advice; Barnardo's Phoenix Project in Bolton gives 'out reach' help to Asian women who remain in an abusive home; the Haven in Wolverhampton helps women 'outside the system' to secure the financial aid they need to build new lives; and the Montgomery Family Crisis Centre, in Wales, as well as helping women, has programmes for men in abusive relationships and male abusers.
In the coming weeks, we will report in detail on the work of these groups and on the lives being reached by MSF. We hope that they will inspire you to make a donation to this important work.
Readers can donate in three ways: by calling 0808 127 0017; online at www.observer.co.uk/christmasappeal or by completing and posting the coupon printed in the paper.
Last year, your generosity raised a fantastic £840,000 for WaterAid and Fairbridge. Please dig deep again.
How you helped inner-city children
Teenage drug users and school drop-outs are not the easiest folk to feel generous towards. Yet stories of young lives transformed after being blighted by inner-city deprivation inspired Observer readers to back their cause.
Last year's Christmas appeal raised a huge £840,000, split between Fairbridge and WaterAid.
Fairbridge offers 13- to 25-year-olds branded too difficult to deal with 'a combination of long-term personal support and challenging activities' to help realise their potential. In the year following our appeal, the charity has begun a new project in Dundee, opened a centre in Rochdale, and its Cardiff team is developing an adolescent mental health role. Nigel Haynes, the charity's director, said: 'This fresh start will bring hope to young people in these communities for years to come.'
WaterAid provides clean water and sanitation in communities where poverty and disease are rife. It's a shocking fact that a child dies every 15 seconds from disease linked to foul drinking water or poor hygiene.
Since our appeal, in Mozambique the number of water points has been doubled; in Bangladesh better latrines mean whole villages are now sanitised; and in Malawi villagers are making compost from waste, enriching their soil to grow better crops.
WaterAid's director, Ravi Narayanan, said: 'Many more of the poorest people will have directly benefited from life-saving projects.'

The U.S. Third Army and Knutsford... six weeks before D Day 1944.
In 1944 General.S. Patten and the U.S. Third Army were based in Knutsford in the lead up to D Day.
The speech he made in Knutsford almost cost him his career.
While researching this post I found this link documenting what went on and transcripts of the event.
It really is 426 years old.
I had a lovely wander around and have more images to share... it's a big estate even today.

A pretty solid game with a nice difficulty curve. Game starts off fairly easy and as you go deeper it scales just right. Most of the bosses are pretty interesting, although some of the early ones feel a little too weak. Game is pretty lengthy though and produced well. Would definitely recommend.[2] Likes

Really great starter adventure game with a few gimmicks to keep things spicey. The length of the game will surely improve any newcomers to fangames and the production value will hold their attention with easy. All these awesome aspects ramp up in sync with one another creating a really progressive feeling game. Theres a few hills and valleys but overall stellar game. Highly impressed.[1] Like

Guernsey's 2015 budget includes proposals to double exempt company fees, freeze personal income tax allowances, and increase the property tax.
A ten percent increase is proposed for the commercial tax on real estate. The tax on the retail sector will rise by a lower five percent.
Following a recommendation from the Policy Council's Fiscal and Economic Policy Group, as
part of the 2013 Budget Report, the States agreed to extend the company intermediate
income tax rate, of ten percent, to licensed fiduciaries (in respect of regulated activities), licensed
insurers (in respect of domestic business), and licensed insurance intermediaries and licensed
insurance managers (in respect of the carrying on of business and acting as such) with effect
from January 1, 2013. It is now proposed that the company intermediate income tax rate, of 10 percent, should be extended to the provision of administration services (as defined under the
Protection of Investors (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 1987), to unconnected third parties
(that is, excluding principal managers).
Last, personal income tax allowances will remain unchanged.
The Minister for Treasury and Resources, Gavin St Pier, said: "This Budget will do three things: confirm that our financial house is now finally in order, as we move out of deficit and stop spending more than we earn for the first time in six years; move us from short-term budgeting to long-term planning; and, enable us to invest in our economy and in our islands' infrastructure."
"Sustainability, fairness, and efficiency are at the heart of this budget," he said.
The budget proposal will be debated at the end of this month.

RED Hearts: Read The Naughty List/
RED Hearts are guests posts on I Heart Daily from the authors of RED: Teenage Girls in America Write On What Fires Up Their Lives Today. Today's RED Hearts post is from Jordyn Turney, 20, reporting from Alpine, California, who writes about cheerleading spy girls who won her respect:
In my very first RED Hearts post, I talked about the incredible Agent 99 from "Get Smart." Now, I revisit the topic of kick-butt female spies with an amazing debut novel by Suzanne Young. The novel, The Naughty List, is the first in a series about -- get this -- a cheerleading squad that doubles as spies.
Yeah, you read that correctly. Aren't we all sick of the cheerleaders-as-villains routine? Here, Tessa and the rest of her squad are in the nonprofit business of catching the unfaithful boyfriends of their high school. They're not half-hearted about it either. Nope, these girls rappel off roofs, go on stakeouts, and have awesome spy gadgets. AND THEY'RE CHEERLEADERS! Suzanne Young -- with a sugar-sweet heroine who replaces common cuss words with exclamations of baked goods (yep, you read that part right, too) -- turns the mean-girl-who-just-happens-to-be-captain stereotype on its head and makes it work.
The story focuses on the new boy in school who's obsessed with Tessa, and her wonderful, perfect boyfriend who winds up on The Naughty List (the cheerleaders' roundup of potential cheaters). It's part teenage love story, part spy spectacular, and it does both brilliantly. The Naughty List is in stores now, and the next two are scheduled to come out later in the year. I suggest moving this book to the top of your reading list yesterday, because it's just. that. great.
PS-Want to hear the back story of The Naughty List cover? I Heart Daily co-editor Melissa has it!
RED Hearts guest poster Jordyn Turney is an author of RED: Teenage girls in America write on what fires up their lives today, which is now available in paperback.

This is a continuation of this guide.
The dilemma. Or dilemmas rather:
People ask this all the time - how much should I charge?
You need to be filling out your checklist when your client is talking with you on the phone. What better way than to have a calculator do it for you?
The biggest problem facing videographers, video producers, and budding filmmakers is the lack of unity. We are one-man-bands, and we all aspire to be auteurs.
And because we do this thing called film and video on the side - OR as a full-time living - we don't all charge the same.
Especially when the global market keeps driving down the prices on digital goods and services.
We don't have a uniform bar to reference for:
- weddings
- crowdfunding videos
- strictly animated videos
- corporate videos
- short films
- slideshows
- visual-fx work
and so on, so forth.
When it comes to searching for answers on "how much does a video cost," the front-page answers on Google are vague and very surface-level (like this one).
Thankfully, there is a growing movement (thanks to content marketing) towards longer, more in-depth blog posts.
Which is good.
We need more intentionality in this area. Really. If we're going to stop and talk to someone on a forum, INVEST in that person. That's discipling. If we're going to teach something, we should teach it and not just give the one-page Chilton's Manual answer.
That means our videos are here to stay, especially with the tools at our disposal. And the demand for quality stories that go deeper will grow, just like the rest of content marketing.
The best will be longer, richer, and way more engaging than the ole "quick 2-minute video" humdrum.
Have you seen "Making A Murderer" on Netflix?
Don't let the title scare you - give the docu-series a whirl if you're a student of film.
It is a shining example of longform content, and like longform blog posts, it will be the new norm for stories: deeper, longer, and absolutely detailed.
It's sink or swim champ. Supply and demand.
But we're getting ahead of ourselves.
You have a family to feed, even if it's just you and your pup Jax.
Let's break down some of these video production costs you're not thinking through. Do that, and you can easily see if you're going to land a $1,000+ job to begin with.
1. Pre-production
Your client will want one of three things:
- Production only (which includes Pre-Production of course)
- Post-production only
- All three phases of making a video/film
The bulk of your costs will come in the production phase (pre-production as well), and it's always good to gain more experience with directing. Call up your Uncle Bob if you have to for extra help and take every paying gig where you can get real-world experience on set - and haggling with clients.
James Cameron said we have to work on negotiating our budgets and our fees as directors.
For you, the one-woman or one-man-band, that's your cost and your gross profit.
It's no different when you talk to Steve's Upholstery, Inc. downtown. He's the big studio exec and you're the storyteller.
Keep pitching.
And pitch again.
For example, I spent collectively over 30-40 hours sending 11 different video pitches in the last month or so.
They weren't super outlandish, but they would command a deeper involvement than just a one-and-done small business ad.
Which is why they required more time and attention to detail.
One so far is on the table.
Is it a gamble? Absolutely.
Some folks won't respond, even after three e-mails (leave some breathing room for this - Reply is a good service for this that I'm just now testing out).
Regardless, be willing to invest in people, same as our Father invests in you.
And with video, you can't just talk shop. You have to SHOW what you want to do in your pitch.
It also helps to have an admin help you find these leads.
Broke as a joke? Go to Upwork and hire a VA (virtual admin) to find leads for you and email them for you as well.
You can easily do it with a fixed price and count it as an expense.
This method of finding leads with your VA is a whole 'nother training in and of itself, and if there is interest in tomorrow's training, I will put it into a course.
2. Production
Your client needs to see where your hours are going.
Production involves principally a few things -
- actors
- crew
- you
- food
- travel time
- gas
- insurance
- gear rentals
- location costs
- time spent packing up gear from HQ and unpacking back at HQ
- and of course payment processing (Stripe, Paypal, Square, etc.)
Do you have a system for this?
Do you know what to put on your invoice if you have a 90-second video for a nonprofit of 50 employees with a 12-day turnaround and Music Bed licensing costs, voiceover work, and merchant processing fees?
I don't either. That's why I built the calculator to do it for me. It doesn't have a name yet, so I'm open to ideas.
Dad always said "do it yourself or hire someone else to do it."
This tool is somewhere between the two.
In time, I'll have it built in for clients to use if they want, but never to replace real human connection. That's how God wired us, and it's absolutely fundamental to providing goods or services to people.
3. Post-Production
This is where you stand to gain the best margin from your work.
You might have to outsource music or subscribe to a service that allows a flat, yearly rate for music in your projects (even commercial projects).
These guys are newer when it comes to music licensing, but they are building up their library and I wouldn't be surprised if they give The Music Bed a run for their money.
The ole YouTube audio library and the FMA (Free Music Archive) will only get you so far; if you're able to attribute the artist (for example, in your own projects), then the FMA is a great place to check out.
That's how I found Ryan Little.
Another biggie is color-correcting and color-grading.
Round-tripping with DaVinci Resolve (DVR) is okay, but it burns through your time and your computer's crunching power.
I know Premiere Pro CC allows you to color RAW files natively inside the editor - can the same be said of the Final Cut products or Avid? Comment below.
You have to account for the time spent on each file. If you can color-correct a clip in 2-3 minutes, and you have 60 seconds of footage or about 17 clips, that's time you need to account for.
Plus the time to load DVR.
And the time to export the colored clips.
Are you able to compute those nuances in a matter of seconds?
It's only one hill in the long laundry list of post-production services.
Without scaring my client with the 20+ itemized services that go into post-production (some of them are just too esoteric anyways), here's what I show my folks:
If you're tired of underselling yourself, there's a tool I'm rolling out this summer.
This instant quote calculator... that's in need of a name, but that's not important right now.
The few tools for calculating video production services that are online are okay at best.
I think a huge reason for that is because they were probably made by a developer or someone that doesn't actually operate as a one-man-band (and thus really know every cost/hour that goes into a project).
They have no idea how much time you spend dealing with "no" just to get a single "yes."
They don't understand how much time is tied up in the computer when it comes to exporting and backing up files in the cloud.
They haven't done the heavy lifting to figure out what the music bed charges a church with 102 employees on staff.
But our team has.
You're tired of losing bids and underbidding yourself and we are too.
This tool will not only spit out exact quotes for any project, but it will also list your expenses, man-hours, and profit margins so you're not living off Kraft singles and bleached bread all week.
And you can share all of that information with your client in a ready-to-print invoice.
Pre-production and production services only?
This tool has you covered.
It's really simple. If you're a one-man band (in video production), you have to quote your client fairly, but if your work is REALLY good, then you need to be able account for that.
On the fly.
And in the first conversation.
Of course you have to gather a few facts first.
Runtime. Locations. Talent. Etc.
What about other variables?
Company size? Type of organization? Expected audience size? Project type and music licensing? Time spent on the phone? Skype? Email? Time spent in-person?!?
If you're a production company, you have way more overhead, and THIS TOOL will NOT be enough for you. You have:
- employees
- a plethora of insurances to deal with
- payroll taxes
- and a monthly rent, among other expenses that the home-based indie videographer and next-gen Christopher Nolans do not have
Your operating expenses > the solo-preneur's operating expenses.
If you're a solo-preneur slash filmmaking hustler that can work with a crew (or work by herself or himself), then this tool is for YOU.
It's your job to educate your clients. When you can give them a detailed reason for your price, that communicates attention to detail, and they will appreciate it.
Price yourself the right way. Pay your actors. Pay your crew. Cover your expenses. Feed your family, and keep working towards telling amazing stories of life change.

Minster FM News
Motorbike Stolen from Lay-By Near Kirkbymoorside
12:16pm 24th September 2013
North Yorkshire Police is appealing for witnesses and information after a motorcycle was stolen from the outskirts of Kirkbymoorside.
The bike had been left in a lay-by at the side of the A170 near the junction for Marton after breaking down. It had been parked securely but was taken sometime between 8.30am and 9.30am on Sunday 22 September 2013.
Officers are conducting enquiries and are requesting the public's assistance to help determine the full circumstances surrounding the incident.
In particular, they are appealing for information about any vehicles seen loading a motorcycle into the back or anyone seen pushing the motorcycle along the A170 around the time of the incident.

Vodafone number deactivated on TRAI directions abruptly. What remedy?
I am using a Vodafone post paid number since the past 10 years, which is being used for my Real Estate business. This number was de-activated abruptly last week and on contacting Vodafone customer care, I have been told that this number has been de-activated on TRAI's direction to Vodafone and it can only be Re-activated at TRAI's discretion.
I have been trying to contact TRAI since the past 4-5 days but to no avail. What legal remedy can I avail now?
Expert Legal Advice:
De-activation of a Mobile connection that has been with you for 10 years and is your Business Contact number must be causing you a lot of inconvenience and business loss. It seems that you have been trying to contact both, Vodafone and TRAI through their Customer Care / Contact Centers.
In such a situation, to get the concerned authorities to take your compliant seriously and on priority, you must follow a few procedures step by step as mentioned below:
Firstly, send across a written complaint to your Mobile Service Provider (Vodafone) mentioning your conversations with the customer care representatives and your long and loyal association with them. You may do so by contacting them as follows:
Lodge your appeal with Appellate Authority on email:- email@example.com or by post addressed to Mr. Vivek Gangwar Associate Vice President C�48, Okhla Industrial Area Phase 2, New Delhi - 110042.
If this does not provide you the desired results, you may contact TRAI in person and through a written complaint (to be sent via Registered Post, Fax and Email) mentioning your conversations and enclosing a copy of your complaint letter to Vodafone along with their response (if any). TRAI can be contacted at the following address:
Mahanagar Doorsanchar Bhawan (next to Zakir Hussain College) Jawaharlal Nehru Marg (Old Minto Road) New Delhi: 110 002
Phone no : 91-11-2323 6308 (Reception) 2323 3466, 2322
FAX No. : 91-11-2321 3294 (Reception)
Email : firstname.lastname@example.com
Parallel to this, also post your complaint at the following link:
Once you have been through these processes, and still are unable to get your number restored, you may opt for legal recourse. The next step in such case would be to send a Legal Notice to both, Vodafone as well as TRAI mentioning the problems being faced by you along with their respective inaction and the losses being borne by you due to the same. This must be followed by a complaint to the Consumer Court as the last and ultimate resort.

"Shrimp: The Endless Quest for Pink Gold is a deep and expert look not only at an important human food source, but also of the fragile complexity of the ecosystem in which it is created."–Edward O. Wilson, Pellegrino Research Professor, emeritus, Harvard University and two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize "Jack and Anne Rudloe aren't just Florida literary treasures, they are national treasures. Their most recent work, Shrimp, is among their best–and that is very good, indeed!"–Randy Wayne White, author of the Doc Ford series "Rich in stories of seamen and the sea, Shrimp tells a fascinating story not only of the little creature itself, but of all the trials and tribulations the intrepid shrimper goes through to harvest it up. As scientists and marine biologists, the Rudloes know whereof they speak, and as writers, they have the talent and grace to make it interesting."–From the Foreword by Winston Groom, author, Forrest Gump "Most humans are said to be composed 90% of water, but for those of us who grew up on the Gulf of Mexico, I think that other 10% must be shrimp. The Rudloes leave the Living Dock behind for a voyage to the land of Pink Crustaceans, and I for one am happy to be aboard for that voyage." –Jimmy Buffett

Raymond writes,
What's the difference between water based and oil based insecticide?
Water based insecticides are the most commonly used insecticides today because they have low or no odor and they usually do not stain. Oil based insecticides are used in cases where the product may need to stay wetter for a longer period of time and they are usually used outdoors to avoid odor issues and staining. Oil based insecticides usually need to be diluted with oil or you must use an additive such as adjuvant to dilute the product in water (always read the product label for proper mixing instructions).
