Gyms face many challenges when trying to attract new members. One of the biggest hurdles is that when someone wants to try a new gym, she tends to run a Google search and then call the first gym or two on the list. To boost your membership, then, you need to land in that crucial first spot.
We will walk you through our proven 5-step process to move your gym to the top of the list. But first, let's take a look at why local SEO is critical for gym owners.
3 Reasons Gyms Should Invest in Local SEO
The Yellow Pages Have Been Replaced…by Google:
Not too long ago, you could simply take out an ad in the local phone book and wait for prospective members to call. Times have changed, and today fully 97% of people search for local businesses online. Google is the juggernaut of online search.
Free Traffic:
Yellow Pages ads might have gone the way of the dinosaurs, but advertising is still one of the biggest expenses for most businesses. If you can improve your Google rankings, though, you will have a constant stream of free traffic that you just need to convert to members.
Swift Results:
On average, national and international companies must wait 6 to 12 months to see a significant increase in Google rankings. Gyms have a tremendous advantage, because your only competition is other gyms in your area, not those on the other side of the country. And many of your competitors are not yet using local SEO. This means that you could hit the first page of Google local results in just 30 days!
Step 1: Determine Your Keywords
Step 1 is simply to draw up a list of keywords that reflect the services your gym provides. Examples might include "yoga classes", "CrossFit", and "functional fitness". When you have a reasonably long list, create a free Google AdWords account.
You do not need to develop or pay for an ad campaign. The account simply allows you to use Google's free Keyword Planner tool, which lets you see how much traffic your listed keywords draw, and provides suggestions for additional related keywords.
You are now ready to decide which keywords you will use. All keywords fall into 2 basic types:
Buying Intent: As the name suggests, buying intent keywords signal that the prospect is ready to buy. For example, someone searching for "CrossFit Portland" is likely ready to sign up for CrossFit, and is deciding which local gym to join.
Buying intent keywords should be the primary focus for your local SEO campaign, since they drive the fastest conversions. Place them on your homepage, and create service pages around them.
Research Intent: Research intent keywords are used by prospects who are gathering more information. They might join a gym eventually, but are at the earliest stages of the sales funnel. For example, "benefits of joining a gym" could indicate that a prospect is thinking of gym membership, but wants to know what's in it for him.
Make these keywords lower priority in your campaign, but do not throw them out. They will not drive quick conversions, but FAQs and blog posts based on them can introduce your gym to prospects who might later decide to join.
Step 2: Optimize Your Keywords
When you settle on a final list of keywords, you need to optimize for them in 2 places—your Google My Business page and your website. Here's what to do:
Google My Business
Featured in the "Map" section of Google local business listings, your Google My Business page is a sort of mini-website that increases your online presence and gives prospects a quick summary of your gym. It can also provide a fast boost to your Google rankings, because it is much easier to get a Google My Business page than a website highly ranked.
Make sure your Google My Business page is accurately and fully filled out:
- Verification: First, claim your page and submit it to Google's verification procedure. When you see a checkmark and the word "Verified" next to your gym name, you are ready to move on.
- NAP: Your business NAP (name, address, and phone number) must be correct and consistent on your Google My Business page and across the internet. To draw attention to the fact that your business is local, list a local phone number instead of an 800 number.
- Categories: Google categories listings are required to focus on services rather than results. For example, in addition to Gym, you might choose Sports Club, Aerobics Instructor, and Pilates Studio, if you provide those services. Try to list 3 to 5 categories.
- Description: The description is simply a 100 to 200- word overview of your gym, followed by a call to action. Try following this formula: {Name of Gym} offers professional {aerobics, CrossFit, and weight training, or similar} in {Your City}. {Provide some information about your gym and/or why members choose you.} Call {Phone Number} today for a free one-hour class!
- Hours: Make sure your hours of operation are up to date, and are listed consistently across all sites. If you offer after-hours personal training or other special services, list that information separately.
- Images: Adding images is a great way to get prospects and members excited about your gym, so include a few photos of the equipment or the classes. Make sure your images have a sharp focus, are sized between 10KB and 5MB, and have a minimum resolution of 720px x 720px. We also recommend replacing the generic Google My Business background image with a branded image.
Website Optimization
Start with your "core" pages, which include your homepage and service pages, and optimize them for your buying intent keywords. Later, you will optimize your "content" pages (FAQs and blog posts) for your research intent keywords. Here are the essential elements:
Homepage: The title tag is similar to a chapter title in a book, and it is the most important part of your homepage. Make sure it is 50 to 65 characters long, and is written similarly to: Gym in {Your City} | {Name of Your Gym}.
Next is your meta description, which highlights your core services. It should be 100 to 150 characters in length, and formatted similarly to: {Name of Gym} offers quality {functional fitness, yoga, and Pilates, or similar} in {Your City}. Call {Phone Number} today to schedule your free one-hour class!
Also known as the H1, your visible headline must be both concise and descriptive, and should include your primary category. Try this: {Gym} in {City, State}.
The last key element is the page copy. It should be roughly 500 to 1000 words long, and include your keyword in a natural way. Provide background information, give a brief overview of your core services, and close with a strong call to action. Review your copy before posting it to ensure that it is well-written and edited.
- Service Pages: Each of your primary services needs its own separate page, tightly focused on a relevant keyword. Optimize each page as you did your homepage.
Step 3: Build Citations and Links
Now that the basic framework of your local SEO campaign is in place, you are ready to build citations and links. Both will improve your reach and boost your Google rankings.
Citations: A citation is any online directory listing of your business name, address, and phone number (NAP). Examples include such general national directories as yellowpages.com and Facebook, and such general local directories as your town's Chamber of Commerce website. In addition, there are targeted directories specific to the gym and fitness industry. Double-check that your NAP is identical in every listing.
Although many citations are free, some directories only offer paid listings. Before making the investment, use Google Analytics to see if you are receiving traffic and conversions from that site.
- Links: To achieve top Google rankings, you must have inbound links from credible, authoritative sites. Build online and offline relationships with complementary businesses, such as health food stores, and then ask to trade links. To learn where your competitors' links are coming from, use a tool such as the Moz Open Site Explorer.
Step 4: Solicit Reviews
Reviews are important for 2 reasons: they reassure Google that your business is legitimate, and they convince prospects to try your gym. While all review sites are useful, Google My Business reviews drive the fastest rankings boost. Send an email to your satisfied members with a link to your Google My Business profile, and ask them directly for a review. If you make this a habit, you will soon have an ongoing stream of reviews.
Step 5: Track Your Results
You can only know how well your local SEO campaign is performing, and which areas need some work, if you track your results. Although there is a wealth of available data, focus on these 3 core metrics:
Rankings: Google customizes its search results based on past browsing behavior. So, if you want to know how a particular page actually ranks, you must use a tool. The free Google Search Console (formerly Google Webmaster Tools) is a great start. Ask your webmaster to install it, and check your results once or twice per month.
You can get more detailed results if you move to a paid tracking tool, such as the one available on RankRanger.com. The tool tracks Google My Business pages as well as webpages, and provides automatically updated ranking results from all of your SEO campaigns.
- Traffic: Google Analytics is the best way to track your traffic, or website visitors. You can see your traffic overall, learn what percentage come from Google search, and determine which of your pages draws the most traffic. Look at your reports every month, and keep an eye out for any long-term trends.
- Conversions: A conversion is a specific action that you want your website visitors to perform. For gyms, a common conversion is to schedule a free class. Google Analytics lets you track both web and telephone conversions, see which services drive the most conversions, and learn which of your pages have the lowest and highest conversion rates.
Let's Get Started!
Now you can see why a comprehensive local SEO strategy is critical for driving more prospects to your gym. Work your way through the steps in order, and make sure each is complete before starting the next. Here is a recap of the 5 steps:
- Keyword research
- Keyword optimization
- Citations and Links
- Reviews
- Tracking

Surprisingly, millennials aren't as fickle as us older folks like to think they are. They don't all go from one place (or product) to another and not stick to any one thing.
According to a recently released study on credit card habits, most millennials rather have all their financial products (including cards) with one bank only. Even more so than older generations like baby boomers and gen X folks. Yes, you read that correctly. Even with all the options (and very enticing offers) out there, millennials are mostly likely to stick around with one bank and their products.
The question that begs to be asked is: is this loyalty to banks a good thing?
Lack of Financial Education
Not to insult anyone, but millennials might be loyal to a certain bank or credit card because some millennials don't know any better. Maybe some millennials aren't aware of the myriad of tools out there that can help them compare credit card rate and rewards. Perhaps they're aware of these tools but they just don't know what criteria they need to be looking at. Or they're blindly listening to someone at their bank and it's easier than spending time researching.
Whatever the reason may be, this loyalty can translate into financial disaster. For example, you carry a balance on your credit card. Instead on focusing on a rewards credit card, you should be focusing on getting a card with the lowest rates possible so you're not paying more interest than you have to. Or let's say you want to score free travel, then your focus should be on cards that can help you maximize points. If you pay off your balance every month, then it doesn't necessarily matter what the APR is.
Even bank fees should be taken into consideration when someone is looking for banks. With a myriad of options available, there is no reason why someone should have to pay bank fees if they don't have to.
Their Bank Just Rocks
On the opposite spectrum, loyalty is a good thing if the bank a customer is with is top notch. That is, they are constantly improving their customer service, products and actually listening to their customers. There are some pretty innovative companies now that genuinely want to help by providing free financial advice via blogs or coaching like Capital One does at their cafes.
In this case, loyalty is definitely earned and not just gained because of someone's lack of financial education. In this case, these companies deserve your attention and loyalty. These banks could also have credit card options at all ends of the spectrum. It could mean that one day you need a secured card, but now can move into an unsecured one and your bank has that option. Or it means they have different services that help you invest your money or options to help you do banking more efficiently.
Bottom line is, if loyalty is actually earned, then millennials who actually take the time to do their due diligence is doing pretty well.

We would like to inform you that the German Ministry of Justice recently provided a new draft anticorruption law explicitly referring to the healthcare sector. This draft new law – once adopted – may also affect your German business, in particular the collaboration with German physicians, pharmacists, nurses and many other healthcare professionals ("HCPs"). A similar draft law was already discussed to be adopted and established in the German Criminal Code (Strafgesetzbuch – "StGB") in 2013. However, at that time, the legislative process could not be finalized due to the upcoming elections and a change in the government and parliament. Moreover, also Bavaria recently provided a very similar draft new law to the German Federal Assembly (Bundesrat).
There are already anti-corruption provisions in the German Criminal Code. However, they currently only cover
- corruptive agreements with respect to granting (undue) benefits and the offering a bribe to public officials (or person entrusted with special public service functions), e.g. a physician in a public hospital; and
- corruptive agreements with respect to granting anundue benefit and offering a bribe to employed officers and service providers in commercial practice.
Thus, corruptive agreements with respect to granting an undue benefit and offering a bribe to the principal of a commercial practice or business (e.g. a self-resident physician or a pharmacist) or to other HCPs which are no public officials and/or are no employees are not covered by current criminal laws. I.e. granting an undue benefit to employees of an HCP in a private practice may be a corruptive act, but not the granting of an undue benefit to the HCP himself/herself. In 2012, the criminal branch of the German Federal High Court ("BGH") indicated in its decision that there is a gap in the German anti-corruption provisions of the German Criminal Code.
The granting of undue benefits to e.g. self-employed physicians ("resident doctors") is of course prohibited by other German laws, such as the German Health Care Advertising Act (Heilmittelwerbegesetz – "HWG"). However, as said, it is not covered by criminal laws yet.
If the draft new law will be adopted, there will be the followingimplications:
A pharmaceutical/medical devices company will in particular have to be more careful in collaborating with HCPs who are self-employed HCPs or employed at privately held or funded hospitals. These HCPs are currently not subject to the criminal anti-bribery laws in Germany. The same applies for medical personnel who are involved in the public health care provision (e.g. some nurses, pharmacists etc.). We assume that there will be no significant changes to the draft new law in the legislative process. However, the process has not really started yet, thus, the adoption of the draft new law will likely take some time.
Details of the Proposal
The proposed new criminal provision stipulates that
whosoever offers, promises or grants a benefit to a – specifically defined – HCP for himself/herself or a third party in connection with practicing his/her profession as consideration of the HCP for (1) according an unfair preference in the national or international competition or (2) violating his/her duties of the professional practice in any other kind at the purchase, the prescription or the dispensing of pharmaceuticals, remedies, aids or medical devices or at the assignment of patients or test material shall be liable to imprisonment not exceeding three years or a fine.
The demanding, allowing to be promised and/or accepting of a bribe by such a HCP certainly will be sanctioned respectively.
The draft criminal provision intends to aim at the following: the protection of the competition in the healthcare sector as well as the protection of the confidence of the public in the integrity of decisions of HCPs.
The draft new criminal provision covers all HCPs who need a state-regulated education for practicing or using the professional title. Thus, not only so-called "academic HCPs" (such as physicians, dentists, veterinarian, pharmacists, psychological psychotherapists and psychotherapists for children and teens) are included, but also so-called "paramedical professions" such as nurses, ergo therapists, speech therapists and physiotherapists. Thus, almost all HCPs are covered by the draft new law – irrespective of them being employed or self-employed and irrespective of them providing services in the public or private health insurance.
The draft new law prohibits to offer, promise or grant a benefit as consideration for the (1) according of an unfair preference in the national or international competition or for the (2) violating of duties of the professional practice in any other kind, at the purchase, the prescription or the dispensing of pharmaceuticals, remedies, aids or medical devices or at the assignment of patients or test materials.
The benefit is defined in a very broad manner and includes even things of no significant value. Generally e.g. invitations to congresses, the provision of share of profits as well as the reimbursed participation in observational studies may qualify as a benefit and its accepting, offering or granting may cause criminal liability, provided that all other conditions of the proposed provision are fulfilled, too; in particular, there has to be a corruptive agreement ("Unrechtsvereinbarung", see below).
The benefit is offered, promised or granted with a criminal consideration where this happens for (1) an unfair preference in the competition or a (2) violation of duties of the professional practice. Since one may only favor anyone if there are at least two competitors and this may not be the case if a product cannot be replaced by another, also the violation of duties of the professional practice shall be criminal liable according to the draft new law. These duties include such of the respective professional rules but also e.g. provisions regulating certain prices which a pharmacist has to request for a product.
Important is, however, that the draft new law requires a concrete corruptive agreement. This means that the benefit has to be accepted and granted as a consideration for the HCP's concrete preferring of the product or service of the one granting the benefit or for a concrete violation of the HCP's duties.
A person violating the draft new criminal provision may be liable to imprisonment up to three years or a fine – similar to the already existing fines for corruption in the private sector. In case the offender acts commercially (i.e. in order to generate ongoing revenues) or the benefit is of a very high value, the criminal act may be sanctioned with imprisonment up to five years. One may already act commercially when acting for a commercial company. The increased penalty may, according to the draft reasons of the ministry of justice, also apply if the criminal action causes a significant risk to a patient's health.
The violation of the draft new criminal provision shall only be prosecuted if there is a respective request or in case of particular public interest. All violated parties may request the prosecution. These are in case of a preference in the competition, the competitors; patients shall only be allowed to request prosecution if their right of a treatment which is not influenced by undue benefits and which is oriented at the patient's benefit is violated. Sick funds may also only be allowed to request prosecution provided that the corruptive agreement violates duties of the HCP which exist with respect to the sick funds. Moreover, the professional chambers of the HCP as well as any professional association which represents the interests of violated parties in the competition, may request prosecution.

LOL! I love the show but I think some of the things they do to save money is NUTS! I mean, to me dumpster diving is OK as long as it's for things that can be cleaned, furniture, etc but eating FOOD from a dumpster??? Also, the lady that peed in the jar to save money by not flushing the toilet to save on water was a bit excessive too. Oh well, to each his/her own I guess :0/

Yes i agree the peeing in a jar was extreme! Though not as extreme as the bachelor pad that didn't flush their toilet! Three guys in their 20s and they only flushed once a week. EEWWW.
I'm all for saving money, but when you risk your health (dumpster diving for food, keeping a jar of urine around) or risk your relationships (turning off the water while your boyfriend is in the middle of a shower), your priorities are now all wrong. Spending money means exchanging one thing for another; you're exchanging the time it took to earn that money for what it buys you. Not letting your boyfriend shower is like saying you're not worth the 30 seconds of my life it took me to work and earn the money needed to pay for that water. Just my humble opine...

Law professor Michael Rappaport has written a rejoinder to my post responding to his critique of my claim that the widespread belief that there is nothing morally wrong with moderate violations of speeding laws is an indication that most Americans do not hold there is a strong presumption in favor of obeying all laws.
Michael continues to argue that speeding laws are a special case:
Ilya characterizes my argument as claiming that the "duty to obey the speed limit is a special case because the government usually doesn't enforce speed limits against moderate violations." But that only captures part of my point. Let me elaborate.
In San Diego, where I live, the highway speed limit is generally 65 mph. The police generally do not ticket unless one is traveling faster than 75, thereby providing motorists with a 10 mph buffer. It is not merely that the police do not ticket for speeds lower than 75. I believe that the government does not believe sub 75 speeds are wrong nor do most people believe that such speeds are wrong. The reason that the government sets the speed limit at 65 rather than 75 is their belief that, if the speed limit were set at 75, people would drive up to 85 mph. Thus, they set it at 65, expecting and allowing people to drive up to 75.
In my view, the fact that the law says that the limit is 65 MPH, and the police will at least occasionally ticket motorists who drive only 5 MPH faster than the law allows, suggests that slightly exceeding the limit is already a "real" violation of the law, albeit one that is rarely enforced, and that the government usually does not want to enforce. Rarity of enforcement, of course, is a characteristic of many laws, as I pointed out in my last post in this exchange. I agree that most people do not believe that speeds between 65 and 75 MPH are "wrong." But that supports my point. Precisely because people believe driving at that speed isn't wrong, they also don't believe it is morally wrong to violate the law by doing so.
Michael proposes the following interesting thought experiment:
Imagine an alternative system where there were monitors along the highways that electronically gave out tickets for exceeding the speed limit. In that world, people would know that they would have to drive below the speed limit to ensure that they did not occasionally exceed it and receive a ticket. In that world, the speed limit might be set at 77 and motorists would drive at between 72 and 75 to avoid getting tickets. In that world, violations of the 77 mph speed limit would be "real" violations of the law. One could then test the question whether people believed exceeding the 77 mph speed limit was morally wrong.
We don't have to just imagine this "alternative system." Such a system actually exists in many jurisdictions that have red light and speeding cameras which give out automatic tickets for traffic violations that police would usually have ignored in the past. They have been greeted with widespread outrage, because people perceive them as punishing petty violations of traffic laws that are not morally wrong, because they do not actually threaten public safety. To be sure, these cameras don't necessarily punish even the slightest deviations from the speed limit. But they do ticket modest infractions that police would generally ignore.

I ordered 1000, my budget is pretty limited and I plan on hitting one area, maybe twice not sure how long they will last. They are only one side. Last year I never went door to door, I just depended on my CL ad. I already ordered them, but I would like to know what you guys think.

Under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, a foreign national (a person who is not a permanent resident or citizen of Canada) is considered inadmissible to Canada if they have a criminal conviction for which no pardon has been issued, or if they have a medical condition that would cause excessive demand on the health or social services of Canada. A Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) provides a remedy to this issue.
Temporary Resident Permit Applications
Persons who are inadmissible seek permission to be in Canada by applying for a TRP. Applicants must state why they qualify for a TRP. In many cases, applicants point to the existence of strong humanitarian and compassionate considerations for the reasons they are seeking a TRP, such as close family connections in Canada, required attendance in Canada for a particular event, inability to leave Canada if already in Canada, or any other compelling reason. Therefore, a TRP application requests an exemption to the rule that inadmissible persons cannot enter and/or remain in Canada.
Trust Our Legal Experts
A TRP application must be carefully prepared with attention to details. An applicant may be interviewed by an immigration officer. The ability to conduct oneself well at an interview requires thorough preparation. All evidence in support of a TRP application must be properly presented, in the event the application is refused and the applicant decides to challenge such refusal in the Federal Court of Canada.
Trust the experts at Pace Immigration to handle your TRP application with care.

Over the review period, rising exposure to Western culture and cuisine had a positive impact on the demand for cheese, especially among young people and children. Thanks to this, more Vietnamese consumers tend to cook more Western dishes and desserts for their family using cheese. Furthermore, they tend to purchase more cheese for their children to improve their height. Unprocessed cheese, including hard and soft cheese, has also become more familiar to consumers especially ones residing in big cities such as Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi thanks to the increase in the number of outlets of modern distribution channels where unprocessed cheese is mainly available.
Bel Vietnam Ltd continued to dominate cheese in Vietnam, accounting for 78% of retail value sales in 2015. In 2016, its retail value share is 79%. The company not only successfully maintained its leading position but also enjoyed the fastest retail value growth in cheese in 2015, and this is set to be the same in 2016. Indeed, Bel Vietnam owns a well-diversified product portfolio consisting of many brands such as La Vache Qui Rit, Belcube and Babybel. Besides, its distribution network covering both traditional and modern channels across the country and its long existence in the country are other competitive advantages. Bel Vietnam is also active in carrying out marketing and promotional activities such as frequent television adverts on popular channels such as HTV. In particular, in the middle of 2015, the company welcomed its ground-breaking ceremony of a new factory in Binh Duong province with an investment of US$17 million. The new plant is expected to have a floor area five times larger than the old factory with a personnel increase from 130 to 200 employees and production capacity of 15,000 tonnes of cheese per year.
Over the forecast period, cheese is expected to grow by a CAGR of 7% at constant 2016 prices, which is one percentage point higher than that of the review period. The good performance will be fostered by rising Westernisation in Vietnamese culture and cuisine, the expected recovery of the economy, higher living standards, and higher disposable incomes. Additionally, manufacturers and distributors are likely to carry out different promotional activities and further expand their distribution networks to boost consumer demand and stay competitive.
Towards the end of the review period, the rising trend towards health and wellness continued to positively affect drinking milk products in the country. Indeed, this trend has resulted in higher demand for drinking milk products especially among the young and children. They have come to consume drinking milk products on a more regular basis. Besides, thanks to the health and wellness trend, new product developments launched are mostly fortified with vitamins or nutrition ingredients such as calcium. Health claims and nutrition claims such as "immune support", "bone health support" or "rich in calcium" on products' packaging or messages delivered via marketing activities have become more familiar to consumers.
Vietnam Dairy Products JSC (Vinamilk) still led in drinking milk products in the country, with 43% of retail value sales in 2015. This will be the same for 2016. It is one of the biggest companies in Vietnam generally, with a good reputation among consumers. With strong financial ability, the company not only invests heavily in research and development to introduce new products but also actively runs marketing and promotional activities through the media in order to diversify its product portfolio, meet potential demand and build brand image. Moreover, the company continuously strengthens and develops its distribution network to stay competitive.
Over the forecast period, the import taxes on drinking milk products are expected to strongly decline based on agreements of the government when joining international partnerships. For example, for drinking milk products with a fat content, by weight, exceeding 1% but not exceeding 10%, based on the circular 168/2014/TT-BTC, the tariff for Australia and New Zealand will decrease from 7% to 5% on 1 January 2016. This tariff will further decline to 0% on 1 January 2017. This trend is expected to make competition in drinking milk products become much tougher as more international players are expected to join and the advantages of international players are improved. Local players are expected to be more active in order to compete.
In 2015-2016, many leading players such as FrieslandCampina Vietnam Co Ltd, TH Food Chain JSC and International Dairy Products JSC (IDP) in yoghurt and sour milk products launched new product developments in both drinking and spoonable yoghurt in order to attract consumers. For example, in drinking yoghurt, in November 2015, TH Food Chain JSC introduced TH True Yogurt TOP KID which was claimed to be fortified with the addition of B vitamins (B6, B12) and folic acid, helping to support optimal intellectual and height development of children. Another instance is FrieslandCampina Vietnam Co Ltd with new product developments in both drinking and spoonable yoghurt. The new products target children with pictures by Walt Disney Animation Studios such as Spider Man and the princesses of Frozen. The products have not only made the competition more intense but have also stimulated consumer demand for yoghurt.
Vietnam Dairy Products JSC (Vinamilk) dominated in yoghurt and sour milk products in 2015, accounting for 68% of retail value sales. It is expected to dominate also in 2016 with a 67% retail value share. The company owns many different competitive advantages including strong brand equity, active marketing and promotional activities, a nationwide distribution network and long-term establishment in the country. However, in 2016, the company faced a gradual decline in its retail value share of yoghurt and sour milk products due to the tough competition especially from other big players such as FrieslandCampina Vietnam Co Ltd, TH Food Chain JSC and International Dairy Products JSC (IDP). Indeed, in 2015, a local big player, Nutifood Nutrition Food JSC, also joined spoonable yoghurt with a new launch called Nuti.
The tariff on yoghurt and sour milk products is expected to decline in relation to more countries over the forecast period. For example, based on circular 168/2014/TT-BTC, the tariff on yoghurt in liquid form, whether condensed or not, for Australia and New Zealand will decrease from 10% to 7% on 1 January 2016. This tariff will continue to drop to 0% on 1 January 2017. As a result, it will intensify the competition, diversify product portfolios as well as offer consumers more choices.
The increasing influence of Western culture and cuisine especially in big cities is positively affecting other dairy products such as cream and coffee whiteners. More young consumers living in big cities have learnt how to use cream and coffee whiteners in cooking and making drinks through the media and the internet. Besides, the development of Western-styled foodservice outlets such as coffee shops and bakery shops has also fostered the consumption of cream and coffee whiteners.
Vietnam Dairy Products JSC (Vinamilk) continued to maintain its dominance of other dairy in 2015, and is expected to continue to do so in 2016, accounting for 80% of total retail value sales. The biggest reason is the company's dominance in the biggest category within other dairy, namely condensed milk, with an 82% retail value share as of 2015 and 2016. Ong Tho and Ngoi Sao Phuong Nam are the two popular brands of the company in condensed milk, being well known for good quality at reasonable prices. Besides, a nationwide distribution network covering both traditional and modern channels and strong financial capacity are the company's other competitive advantages.
Similar to other products in dairy such as drinking milk products and yoghurt, the tariff on other dairy is expected to further decline over the forecast period. New international players may enter and make the competition much tougher. Local players such as Vietnam Dairy Products JSC (Vinamilk) and Trung Nguyen Corp are expected to face more difficulties in efforts to stay competitive.

Based from Goodreads Page as well as reading a couple of reviews at Dear Author, this novella might be an expansion of Mitch and Paulo's story line that was just secondary or being in the background of the other couples at Anderson's rodeo world.
I thought the story was dry and lacked emotion. It was crammed with Mitch's personal fear of being outed — since rodeo world was not very kind to gay men. At the same time, I felt that Mitch's internal conflict as well as the feelings between these men were told to me rather than shown. Maybe because this is the author's first full jump into the M/M romance, she still tries to find the balance of telling a story from perspectives of two men? In any case, it was rather hard for me to feel connected to Mitch and Paulo that way.
In addition, amidst of broken conversations between Mitch and Paulo (Mitch was not exactly fluent in Portuguese while Paulo didn't speak English very well), it had too much sex scenes for my taste, instead of relationship development.
I did give a point for one particular thing. I actually thought it would end up in a cliche way … like them being outed in public or maybe Paulo gets badly injured which leads to love confession at hospital. It was nice to know that it wasn't the case.
ALTHOUGH… at the same time, the ending was way rushed. To me, it felt like it was tying up some loose ends which happened in the other books but the author just didn't want to explain them all again here.
Maybe Crushing on the Cowboy will work better for the fans of this author's works, or for those who are starting their experience of reading M/M Harlequin romance. Unfortunately for me, this novella didn't impress much *shrugs*.

El Sicario, Room 164 Reviews
June 28, 2013
Gianfranco Rosi's extraordinary one-man documentary stares long and hard at the practiced but no less terrifying monologues of a Mexican hit man.
April 12, 2012
...never dull thanks to the intrinsic interest of the subject matter and dramatic sense and disarming frankness of the narrator, whose attitude and lack of regrets could be summed up as "business is business."
Full Review | Original Score: 7/10
Top Critic
January 4, 2012
The stories are horrific, if laced with Tarantino-style humor.
December 30, 2011
What appears to be a monologue documentary illuminates the elephant in the room. We are the killers.
Full Review | Original Score: 8/10
December 29, 2011
gives off the sense that you're watching a 60 Minutes interview with Death himself
| Original Score: 4/5
Top Critic
December 29, 2011
El Sicario: Room 164 is an almost laughably simple, aggressively drab-looking film, but it packs a wallop.
Read More | Original Score: B+
December 28, 2011
A cross between a feature-length home movie and instant avant-garde classic, El Sicario, Room 164 records a man in a room (though not just any man) talking for 80 charged minutes.
Top Critic
December 28, 2011
Rosi avoids all embellishments, such as re-creating some of the crimes. A wise choice, since the hit man's narration is compelling and frightening on its own.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/4
Top Critic
December 27, 2011
Finally less compelling for its random details of multiple brutalities than for its chilling portrait of a country irretrievably rotting from within.
Read More | Original Score: 3.5/5
Top Critic
December 27, 2011
The film's sparse, almost banal presentation is a virtue, for to boldface the horrors under discussion would only trivialize or sensationalize them, as the Mexican murder magazines do.
Top Critic
December 20, 2011
Despite his repentance, you sense that this lost soul will be confessing his sins for all eternity.
Full Review | Original Score: 4/5
December 20, 2011
A lot of evil is laid on the table in El Sicario, and the film makes a big, if exquisitely subtle show, of theorizing that there's no way to explain how it got there.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4
February 6, 2012
This one-man dramatization is not a film, but surely an indictment. Rosi's 'grey zone where good and evil meet' is wide of the mark; this is pure evil.

Unanswered: How to search multiple fields??
I have approx 3,000 rows (they are all names of suppliers)
I have approx 100 fields (they are named Field1, Field2, Field3 etc)
In Field 1, we will 'randomly' enter the name of any product they are approved to supply (eg. table, chair, computer etc).
In Field2, we will 'randomly' enter the name of any other product they are approved to supply.
How can I search each of the 100 fields and return the names of all suppliers who are approved to supply 'tables'?
I have created a Query with a condition which shows =table in Field 1. But if I put 'table' in the other fields as Criteria then it dfoes not work (it will only work if ALL fields have 'table'. I have also tried to use OR, but this does not work either.
Any help woudl be much appreciated.

Hi apr pillai,
Thanks for a very comprehensive answer - the thread was great. It isjust too complicated for me to understand.
I did manage to find a microsoft thread which advises I am formatting my database incorrectly. And I should be using more Rows instead of trying to input data in many fields.
This makes it easier to search for data, apparently.

I think you have already learn this, but you do have a design issue.
You should have each product on a separate row (record) in a related table.
This will then allow a simple query on one field.
While apr pillai's example would work for a properly design (normalized) database, it really is not what you should use in this case. I agree with you that you should fix the design issue.Boyd Trimmell aka HiTechCoach HiTechCoach.com (free access stuff)

Boyd's advice is right on the money here! Any time you're entering the identical kind of data, such as products, into multiple fields instead of entering it into multiple records in a related table, you assuredly have a non-normalized database, and are making almost any data manipulative tasks ten times harder to do!
Likewise, most experienced developers will tell you that a table with more than 25-35 fields is also sure to be non-normalized. Take the time now to correct your design flaws and you'll thank yourself later!
Good luck with your project!Hope this helps!
The problem with making anything foolproof...is that fools are so darn ingenious!

Thanks for your comments guys, and for the confirmation regarding the design issue.
I didn;t want to increase the number of rows coz i thought the size of the database would become too large (I will have maybe 8,000 rows eventually?).
But I need to manipulate the data to make the reports work so re-designing is the only way.

Having "8,000 rows eventually" should be considered a small number of records.
I would much rather have 8,000 rows with 10 fields than 800 rows with over 50 fields.
If you will look into how JET and other database engines use buffers/read-cache to gain performance, things will make more sense. Having really large record sizes (lots of fields) can possible have negative performs hits because Microsoft Jet's read-cache is not longer helping reduce disk reads and/or network traffic.Boyd Trimmell aka HiTechCoach HiTechCoach.com (free access stuff)

Create-a-Caption: Mark Jackson is a pretty gloomy Gus
Hhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy, Mark Jackson. How ya doin'? Everything OK? Yeah?
You sure, Mark? You look a little down in the mouth. Specifically the corners of the mouth. They're pointing down. I know the rules. Mouth down, Mark frown.
Is it because you're worried that giving up Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and literally anything else Dell Demps might want in a potential trade that would bring back Chris Paul isn't a good deal? Or is it that you know it would be a good deal, but you'd be sad not to have the opportunity to coach some young guys you think you'd have fun getting to work with? Or is it that you miss Jeff Van Gundy?
Awwww. That's OK, Mark. We all kind of miss Jeff Van Gundy, in our way. But you'll get to see him soon! Yeah, that's right, on the TV! He'll be talking about how you never played defense and how great it was to see "Hugo" or whatever before you know it. Until then: Hang in there, kitty, buck up, sport, and keep calm and carry on.
Best caption wins a nice long cry, because you need one sometimes, and a friendly ear to listen, because you need one all times. Good luck.
In our last adventure: See, Mark Jackson? Derek Fisher was sad before, but now he's happy. It'll all turn around. Just you wait.
Winner, Justin Reyes: "Then I was all like, 'This could shorten the season? ... Lockout it is.'"
Runner-up, Waynehead: Derek Fisher hears the trade rumors — Dwight Howard this, Chris Paul that. Yet he still smiles. I think he realizes that he will still be a Laker no matter what, because no one will trade for him.
Second runner-up, The Football God: Spalding paid $1 million for this product placement ad. FAIL!

We wanted to get in the passing lanes and disrupt their offense so they weren't able to do that.feedback
Mar 25 2017
I think we were kind of just exhausted. It was a long final three minutes. We were happy once we got back in the locker room, but we didn't end the game as well as we would have liked to, and I think the [tired] look on our face was a result of kind of how the last three minutes dragged for us.feedback

I need to find a role on this team. I need to find a way that I can help.feedback
Mar 20 2017
This entire team is really anxious about that. Last year, we had guys, they knew how to win a national championship and they had done it before. We know how, but we've never had to do it ourselves. I am going to be a black female after basketball. I want to make sure every day that I am trying to make a difference. I'm glad these issues are finally being talked about. It's cool to see people who are more motivated, like, What can I do now? I just wasn't ready for that level of competition. I kind of got down on myself all the time. I never wanted to feel that way again.feedback
Mar 20 2017
I kind of had a realization that I wanted to do basketball more than I wanted to do track.feedback

Now I realize just how almost impossible that was, to think it was going to be so easy just to take a year off.feedback
Mar 17 2017
It's not the number, really, that's so special. It was the environment, the fans, the alumni being here, the amount of coverage we had, and how many people were watching the game. That's what was special for me.feedback

We just tried to stay poised and keep our composure, and just be more confident than the other team.feedback

2013-12-13 - Alvhogsborg, Trollhattan, Sweden
Information Christmas Metal Symphony bootleg Älvhögsborg, Trollhättan, Sweden
Here is an audience recording from the first show of Christmas Metal Symphony, it's a very nice piece of history. Michael Kiske sang live for the first time ever the track 'Longing' and also the Christmas Carol 'Silent Night' with some vocalists from the live project. If you want to see more information about the setlist, which songs are of which band, who sings check the information about the show.
Audience recording. The show was taped by Stephan Thor with a H2N Zoom device. (Taped from the bottom-right side)
Equipment: H2N Zoom device -> WAV (PCM S16 LE, 44100kHz/16 bit).
This is the master edition, the raw file in one track, not encoded/splitted.
Total playing time: 1 hr 47 min 25 sec
Source Master size: 1,58 Gb.
Quality 1-10
7,5 (easily an 8 with a little edition)
Comments about Christmas Metal Symphony bootleg in Trollhättan, Sweden 2013
This is a very nice bootleg, a part of the historic moment of playing live for the first time 'Longing', you can also hear 'March Of Time' with orchestra. The track 'I Want Out' was played without orchestra. Also another thing of this bootleg is that is one of the first dates so Kiske voice was quite perfect he didn't had problems with flu yet, his voice sounds very clear on 'March Of Time' comparing with other bootlegs from different dates. Also as surprise he played an orchestral version of the Christmas Carol 'Silent Night' together with Floor Jansen, UDO and Chuck Billy. A magic night.
Not Kiske-related but this was the only show where Joey Belladona played 'Here I Go Again' of Whitesnake in this show and the second in Sweden but after this show he played only 'Highway To Hell' instead. Also the vocalist Floor Jansen sang alone 'Phantom Of The Opera' without Joacim Cans because Joacim was not in Swedish shows.
The bootleg sounds very nice without edition, it has not any distortion except in some parts with the vocalist Floor Jansen because her micro volume was too high, on the song 'Pledge Of Allegiance' and a little in some parts of 'Phantom Of The Opera', but it sounds perfect in 'Nemo' and 'Alone' version of Heart.
The main base-sound its a little far, with a little edition the sound will be clearer and it could increase the volume, but that's very easy.

Eddie Royal ruled out, Josh Sitton is doubtful for Packers game
The Bears' offense will be down two starters against the rival Packers Thursday night at Lambeau Field.
Receiver Eddie Royal was ruled out with a toe injury. Left guard Josh Sitton was listed as doubtful because of his ankle injury. Neither player practiced in any capacity this week. They suffered their injuries Sunday against the Jaguars.
Royal has been one of the Bears' most consistent performers this season. He has 29 catches for 338 yards and two touchdowns in six games.
Sitton, meanwhile, is expected to miss his first matchup against the Packers, who released him on Sept. 3. The Bears signed Sitton to a three-year, $21 million deal, and he quickly solidified the interior of their offensive line.
If Sitton sits as expected, it will be the first time that the Bears' offensive line is without a starter this season. Eric Kush is expected to play in Sitton's place.
In a positive development, cornerbacks Tracy Porter (knee) and Bryce Callahan (hamstring) returned to practice on Wednesday on a limited basis. They are officially listed as questionable after not practicing at all on Tuesday.
It also appears as if linebacker Leonard Floyd (calf) will play. He's listed as questionable. He took part in practices on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Rookie cornerback Deiondre' Hall (ankle) also was ruled out.
Quarterback Jay Cutler (thumb), defensive lineman Eddie Goldman (high-ankle sprain) and running back Jeremy Langford (high-ankle sprain) are listed as doubtful again, but they haven't practiced in weeks.
The following players are questionable, but are expected to be active against the Packers: inside linebacker Jerrell Freeman (wrist), outside linebacker Sam Acho (ribs), tight end Zach Miller (ribs) and running back Ka'Deem Carey (hamstring).

It's Halloween, which means lots of bats, witches, pumpkins, and my favorite part: candy. Between all the haunted houses, corn mazes, costume balls, and apple-bobbing contests, I hope you're still finding the time to curl up on the couch with a mug of cider and a good romance.
Some readers like their books to match the season; beach reads and adventure romance for the summer, snowbound cabin books and all the holiday reads will get you through the winter. Fall makes me want to pick up farmer and back-to-school books, until October hits and the stores are stocked with costumes, candy, and truly bizarre yard decorations.
While there are Halloween romances, I'm more inclined to head for the supernatural for my seasonal fix. I could go shifters or witches, but this year I'm heading off the beaten path for something a little less…alive and hunkering down with some zombie and zombie apocalypse romances.
Zombies may not seem like a logical choice for romance, because let's be real, they're creepy AF. But there's something about peril that sets a tone for convincing, light-speed romance, and you have to offer a hardy salute to any author who can make a romance work between the undead and the not.
So I'm going to go ahead and say that zombies and romance go together like peanut butter and bacon: at first you might wrinkle your nose, but once someone convinces you to taste it, you're all
I'm pretty sure those aren't brains he's chowing down on?
Anyway, without further ado, here are some zombie and zombie apocalypse romances to get you through the holiday and beyond.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Rascon Early Origins
Yorkshire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. After the Battle of Hastings in 1066, William, Duke of Normandy, having prevailed over King Harold, granted most of Britain to his many victorious Barons. It was not uncommon to find a Baron, or a Bishop, with 60 or more Lordships scattered throughout the country. These he gave to his sons, nephews and other junior lines of his family and they became known as under-tenants. They adopted the Norman system of surnames which identified the under-tenant with his holdings so as to distinguish him from the senior stem of the family. After many rebellious wars between his Barons, Duke William, commissioned a census of all England to determine in 1086, settling once and for all, who held which land. He called the census the Domesday Book, [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Williams, Dr Ann. And G.H. Martin, Eds., Domesday Book A Complete Translation. London: Penguin, 1992. Print. (ISBN 0-141-00523-8) indicating that those holders registered would hold the land until the end of time. Hence, conjecturally, the surname is descended from the tenant of the village and lands of Raskelf, (formerly Raschel,) held by one the Kings many stewards, who was recorded in the Domesday Book census of 1086.
Rascon Spelling Variations
Rascon Spelling Variations
The English language only became standardized in the last few centuries. For that reason, spelling variations are common among many Anglo-Norman names. The shape of the English language was frequently changed with the introduction of elements of Norman French, Latin, and other European languages; even the spelling of literate people's names were subsequently modified. Rascon has been recorded under many different variations, including Raskill, Raskell, Reskill, Reskell, Rascal, Rascall, Rascill and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
To escape the uncertainty of the political and religious uncertainty found in England, many English families boarded ships at great expense to sail for the colonies held by Britain. The passages were expensive, though, and the boats were unsafe, overcrowded, and ridden with disease. Those who were hardy and lucky enough to make the passage intact were rewarded with land, opportunity, and social environment less prone to religious and political persecution. Many of these families went on to be important contributors to the young nations of Canada and the United States where they settled. Rascons were some of the first of the immigrants to arrive in North America: the name represented in many forms and recorded from the mid 17th century in the great migration from Europe. Migrants settled in the eastern seaboard from Newfoundland, to Maine, to Virginia, the Carolinas, and to the islands..

I've found that most artists are pretentious. Ranging from Johnny Depp's refusal to see his own movies (because then it becomes about money *cough* "Pirates of the Caribbean" *cough*) to my Drawing I teacher kicking a girl out of his class permanently because she used "purple" instead of "violet." And then there's the ubiquitous Kanye West (now a fashion designer of really ugly shoes with tassels) who constantly uses capital letters because what he says is so important that he has to use the internet equivalent of SCREAMING (although I have this weird admiration for someone who thinks he is the Jesus Christ of the pop music/rap/fashion/political/artistic/everything else world).
I'm not exactly sure from where this sense of entitlement comes. It's like they have access to some unreachable plane of existence that normal humans just can't comprehend, so they come off looking and sounding like Lady Gaga, sometimes just for the sake of being weird. "It's all about the art." Sure. Whatever.
As an artist, I actually feel rather shunned by the artistic community. My paintings are mediocre, at best, and my photography is akin to a child getting a hold of his mother's camera and taking pictures haphazardly because he's not quite sure what this contraption actually does. When I go to a painting exhibit, it's usually, "Ooooh, I like the color scheme" rather than, "Oh, I can totally see the pain he was going through in this blade of grass because of the harshness of the brush strokes. How deep." I listen to pop music and do not spend my days searching for obscure bands just so I can say I found them first and that they are bad now that they are mainstream. And I don't watch various plays and dances that I consider weird and carry on for hours about the brilliance of the performers. For example, I still don't understand modern dance. I understand it takes skill, but when you're just throwing yourself about in what looks like an epileptic seizure, I'm not going to inundate you with praise. I'm not saying it's not art, because it is. However, I'm not just going to gush about it and ask for an encore because it's supposedly my responsibility as a fellow artist.
Take John Cage's 4'33". He says it was his most important work. Well, it's just silence. The sheet music just instructs the musicians not to play anything for four minutes and thirty-three seconds. Sure, I understand that the ambient noise is supposed to be the music, but come on. That's 4:33 that I will never get back, and the money I might have spent on that concert could have been used for a picnic in the park, where I could listen to silence for free.
But I love my art. I am passionate about my sketches, character designs and, in some cases, my attempts at using acrylic and oil paints. I spend countless hours researching for my stories and articles, and I treat them like they are more valuable than children (because they are). I keep scraps of paper with story ideas or quotes in case I can use them again, which means that I have umpteens of notebooks and boxes of loose leaf notebook paper with random scribblings, most of which are not related in any way possible. I'm sure there is some manner in which I could organize them, but I just haven't the time or the energy.
Still, I find that I'm usually sort of offput by artists. I don't find myself better than they are, but I feel like they expect me to be a certain way. I have more in common with tattoo and graffiti artists than I do with most writers, painters or what have you.
Gah, they just don't understand me.
* I'm actually not sure if Kanye does approve of this, but just so he can't come after me with his terrifying 5'7" self, I'm posting this disclaimer: Kanye West does not have anything to do with this blog, and in no way are his opinions expressed in this entry. By the way, Kanye, if you are reading this, I heart you and think we could be great friends.
