So, You Want a Website. Why?
You've decided to get a website for your business. Great idea! Everyone knows you're not a 'real' business until you have some kind of site. You have lots of cool ideas and can't wait to get it going!
Stop right there! Before you do anything, you need to be very clear about WHY you are building this site. What do you want the site to do for your business?
Creating a Mission Statement for Your Site
The answer to 'why you need a website' is really the mission statement for the site. This statement will be your compass to keep the project going in the right direction and filters out the what you don't need. It helps keep the website project on-target, on-time and on-budget.
There are so many things a website can do. If you're not crystal clear about its purpose, you'll spend a lot of time, energy and money creating something that adds no value to your business.
Here's how to create a mission statement for your website:
Step 1: What will this site do for your business?
The website is part of your business and should serve it. That seems obvious, but it's easy to lose sight of. When you understand how your site fits into your business you'll get more out of it.
What's the main thing you want to accomplish with this site? More sales? Better brand awareness? Save time on placing orders? Communicate better with your clients or staff? Again, pick one — and only one! There can only be one thing at the top of the list.
Now write it down. It should look something like:
The purpose of the website is to ___[improve sales, sell products on-line]___ for my business.
Step 2: How exactly is it going to do that?
Now that you know how the site should serve the business (i.e.: improving sales), but how exactly is that going to do it? Time to narrow the focus!
While increased sales is a great idea, it won't magically happen just because you have a website. E-commerce sites don't sell products themselves and client information doesn't mean much without someone actually working with the clients.
In otherwords, your site has to do something for its users. What service / information will your site offer and to whom?
Time to pick up the pen again and refine that mission statement.
The purpose of the website is : to ___[improve sales, sell products on-line]___ for my business
by ____[offering what info or doing what exactly ?]______ to ___[who is going to use it?]____.
Below are examples of mission statements for websites:
Marketing Site:
The purpose of the website is to: increase sales by forwarding product info requests to our sales department for follow-up.
The purpose of the website is to: create sales by offering on-line sales to our customers.
Custom Application for Your Business:
The purpose of the website is to: improve order fulfillment by providing up-to-date stock levels to our shipping department.
On-Line Business:
The purpose of the website is to: provide our services on-line to our customers.
Step 3: Just Use It — Wisely
With your site mission statement, you know exactly what your site is trying to do. This is a big help in deciding how to allocate your resources.
Example: Should we add video to the site?
The purpose of the site is to: increase sales by forwarding product info requests to our sales department for follow-up.
If the video is about the product and ends with directing viewers to contact your company for more info, then yes, add the video.
If it's a video about your company history, then no, probably not. Spend your resources on directing visitors to the product info pages.
Apply Gently and Consistantly:
A good website offers something to the visitor — information, entertainment, functionality. Don't give up the good stuff on your site just to make a sale! If you take away the reason people go to your site, you'll lose them.
So, keep the good stuff and add some more! However, make sure all these pages are in line with your site mission statement.
"Should we add a video about our company's history?"
Yes, if you show people what a great company you are and encourage them to contact you. Then the page is serving your business.
Need Some Help?
Contact me if you'd like some help on creating your website's mission statement, or would like more information on how to set up a website. I'd be happy to hear from you!

Symptomatic intraspinal lumbar facet joint synovial cysts can be managed both conservatively and surgically. Diagnosis of the lumbar facet joint cyst is made through cross-sectional imaging of the spine, either by computerized tomography (CT) scan, myelography, or most commonly magnetic resonance imaging. Conservative treatment by facet joint injection can be performed under fluoroscopic or CT guidance, although only CT guidance provides direct visualization of the cyst confirming accurate needle placement. This case report illustrates the use of percutaneous CT-guided facet joint cyst treatment as a temporizing measure or alternative to surgical treatment in the proper clinical scenario.

Spitelout JorgensonTalk0
this wiki
Spitelout Jorgenson is a Viking in the film adaptation of How To Train Your Dragon. He is not named in the movie, only during the credits. He is Snotlout's father and appears to be second-in-command of the tribe. He is often seen with the Stoick the Vast in battle and at Viking meetings.
He is seen with a Terrible Terror on his shoulder during the ending of the film, suggesting it is his dragon.
He seems to only have five lines, the first and second during the dragon raid, the third during the meeting before setting sail for their first mission, the fourth when the dragons fly out of the opening recently made by the catapults, and the fifth when Stoick tells him to lead the Vikings to the far side of the island.
- "Get inside!"
- "Hoist the torches!"
- "I'm with you, Stoick."
- "We've done it!"
- "Right, everybody to the far side of the island."
In How to Train Your Dragon
Spitelout is first seen during the dragon raid at the beginning of the film. He is next seen when the adult Vikings discuss Stoick's suggestion to find the dragon's nest. He, along with others, sets sail for Helheim's Gate. They return sometime after, not having found the nest.
Spitelout is present for Hiccup's final exam, and helps Stoick to restrain Toothless. He is among the Vikings who force Toothless to lead them to the nest. When the Red Death attacks, Spitelout is instructed by Stoick to lead everyone to the other side of the island while Stoick keeps it busy. He witnesses Hiccup and Toothless defeating the Red Death, and is one of the many who greet Hiccup when he awakens, a Terrible Terror on his shoulder.
In the Series
Spitelout has appeared in episode 12-"Thawfest" in the DreamWorks Dragons: Riders of Berk TV series. It was revealed that Spitelout is Snotlout's father. Spitelout displays a highly conditional and narcissistic form of parental love towards Snotlout, taking great pride in his son's accomplishments, but turning on him in a very fearsome and unforgiving way when confronted with the possibility of him failing, as well as a general lack of empathy towards his son's emotional state in times of stress. This attitude goes a long way in explaining Snotlout's own lack of empathy, as well as his posturing, vanglorious bragging, and persistent denial of his flaws. It is possible that Spitelout had the same upbringing as he gives Snotlout. Given that possibility it is likely that Spitelout does in fact care about Snotlout, but is not sure how to show it.
Spitelout is seen putting a lot of pressure on his son, making Snotlout absolutely terrified of losing the Thawfest games and face his father. Spitelout is also revealed to be in the Jorgenson clan, (this means that if he is Stoick's brother, he is likely his half brother) and he says that his family had never lost a Thawfest game before, suggesting that maybe he used to win every year in the Thawfest games when he was young.
He makes a brief appearance among the gathered adults in "We Are Family Part I", when Stoick entrusted Hiccup with the Book of Dragons.
Spitelout then appeared briefly in "Tunnel Vision", when he and the other villagers were forming a defensive line in the village against the invading Whispering Deaths. Later, Spitelout was cornered by a Whispering Death, but Gobber managed to come to his aid impeccably.
His latest appearance is in "Race to Fireworm Island", where he callously suggests Snotlout get a new dragon to replace the ailing Hookfang. His motto is also said to be "Rest is for the weak." However, it is established later in the episode that he did not know a thing about dragons.
In How To Train Your Dragon 2
Spitelout is seen during the dragon race, wearing a displeased look on his face. Stoick slaps him on the back while he cheers Astrid on.
- David Tennant, who provided Spitelout's voice, had previously narrated a series of Hiccup's adventures on audio book.
- Unlike most of the male adult Vikings, Spitelout lacks a beard and instead sports stubble.
- Spitelout is a reference to Baggybum the Beerbelly from the books.

History is often made when adversaries with well-established biases overcome expectations to find common ground: Ronald Reagan negotiating arms reduction with Mikhail Gorbachev, Anwar Sadat and Menachem Begin signing a peace treaty between Israel and Egypt, or Saudis joining the first Iraq War coalition as staunch allies. These events become history because they are so unusual. When enemies beat their swords into ploughshares, it is front page news.
That's one reason President Obama's bromance with Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey remains an enduring story from the 2012 presidential campaign, an example of unexpected cooperation across a cultural and political divide that shaped countless narratives since the early 2000s. The two political leaders toured the Shore, met victims, and continued to cooperate with ease during the entire crisis. While we don't know what strategic machinations played out behind the scenes, this televised news drama left millions of us with a powerful visual reminder that bipartisan cooperation is possible.

WPRI: Preliminary plane crash accident reportHassinger 'appeared to be in good spirits shortly before the crash'
WPRI reports that the The National Transportation Safety Board released its preliminary report on the Oct. 25 New Hampshire airplane accident that killed two island residents, Herman and Doris Hassinger.
Pilot Herman "appeared to be in good spirits," before taking off from Boire Field in Nashua, NH, but about 10 minutes later he made a 180-degree turn.
An examination of the plane afterward showed the landing gear wasn't down, reports WPRI.

Stocks Slip On Wall Street; Dell Slumps
NEW YORK (AP) â¿¿ Optimism that President Barack Obama and Congressional leaders will reach a deal on the budget deficit and avoid the "fiscal cliff" helped stocks notch their first advance in four days.
The market started lower Friday but spiked higher shortly before midday as the top members of the House and Senate spoke at the White House following a closed-door session with Obama. House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell both said they offered higher tax revenue as part of a deal. Boehner said he outlined a framework that is consistent with Obama's call for a "balanced" approach of both higher revenue and spending cuts.
"It's a good start ... the fact that they were all standing together," said Ben Schwartz, the chief market strategist at Lightspeed Financial, a New York-based broker.The Dow Jones industrial average closed up 45.93 points, or 0.4 percent, at 12,588.31, after falling as much as 71 points at mid-morning. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 6.55 points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,359.88 and the Nasdaq rose 16.19 points, or 0.6 percent to 2,853.13. Investor concern that Obama and Congress won't reach a deal on how to cut the deficit has caused a sell-off in stocks since Election Day. Stocks fell Wednesday after Obama insisted that higher taxes on wealthy Americans would have to be part of any deal and that he would not cave to Republicans who have pressed for tax cuts first passed by President George W. Bush to be extended for all income earners. The Dow is down 5 percent since Nov. 6. If an agreement isn't made, automatic government spending cuts and tax increases are set to kick in at the beginning of next year. The measures total about $700 billion for 2013 and could send the country back into recession.

Day One
It was a whirlwind. I was exhausted by the time I came back to my room.
I went downstairs before our set 3pm meeting time and there were members of the cohort everywhere - checking in, hanging out in the lobby, and swimming in the hotel pool. It was nice to put real live people with e-mails and photos online.
We offcially convened at 3pm with a general session with Dr. Brian O'Connor and did some Q & A. Then we shuttled over to the UNT Campus and attended a "meet & greet" with the faculty complete with wine and cheese.
Then we adjourned to a boardroom style space at the Info Science building for an overview of what the process would be. This was the "deer in the headlights" moment for a few of us. I must confess it suddenly seemed overwhelming.
Good questions and some calming by Dr. O'Connor helped. I think we are all going to learn in this process: students (the cohort) and the faculty.

The ADuC7122 is a fully integrated, 1 MSPS, 12-bit data acquisition system, incorporating high performance multichannel ADCs, 12 voltage output DACs, 16-bit/32-bit MCUs, and Flash/EE memory on a single chip. The ADC consists of up to 13 inputs. Four of these inputs can be configured as differential pairs with a Programmable Gain Amplifier on their front end providing a gain between 1 and 5. The ADC can operate in single-ended or differential input modes. The ADC input voltage is 0 V to VREF. A low drift band gap reference, temperature sensor, and supply voltage monitor complete the ADC peripheral set.
The DAC output range is programmable to one of two voltage ranges. The DAC outputs have an enhanced feature of being able to retain their output voltage during a watchdog or software reset sequence.
The devices operate from an on-chip oscillator and a PLL, generating an internal high frequency clock of 41.78 MHz. This clock is routed through a programmable clock divider from which the MCU core clock operating frequency is generated. The microcontroller core is an ARM7TDMI®, 16-bit/32-bit RISC machine that offers up to 41 MIPS peak performance. Eight kilobytes of SRAM and 126 kilobytes of nonvolatile Flash/EE memory are provided on chip. The ARM7TDMI core views all memory and registers as a single linear array.
The ADuC7122 contains an advanced interrupt controller. The vectored interrupt controller (VIC) allows every interrupt to be assigned a priority level. It also supports nested interrupts to a maximum level of eight per IRQ and FIQ. When IRQ and FIQ interrupt sources are combined, a total of 16 nested interrupt levels are supported.
On-chip factory firmware supports in-circuit download via the I2C serial interface port, while nonintrusive emulation is also supported via the JTAG interface. These features are incorporated into a low cost QuickStart Development System supporting this MicroConverter® family. The part contains a 16-bit PWM with six output signals.
For communication purposes, the part contains 2 × I2C channels that can be individually configured for master or slave mode. An SPI¯ interface supporting both master and slave modes is also provided.
The parts operate from 3.0 V to 3.6 V and are specified over atemperature range of −10°C to +95°C. The ADuC7122 is available in a 108-Ball BGA package.

Coastal California Cruise
First of all, this itinerary was wonderful! San Pedro to Santa Barbara, San Francisco, San Diego and Ensenada was enough to entice us to fly cross country from SC to take this trip on the Sapphire Princess! The ports were everything we hoped they would be and the weather was awesome!
Now, the Sapphire Princess is showing her age, but there are some wonderful touches that all Princess ships should adopt. The 4 smaller dining rooms are a welcome change from the 2 big ones. The Internet cafe is finally large enough and the Horizon Court is too. They are going to drydock and update many things about the Sapphire, but I hope that's not one. Other than adding the Movies under the stars I can't thing of a single thing I'd change!
The bad, Princess has changed their policy about people borrowing wheelchairs. My mom can walk but has limited mobility. We were not able to sign for a wheelchair so she could disembark ship and take some tours of the beautiful ports we went More to. And everyone we went to to try to figure out what to do to fix this gave us a different answer even though we had noted on all the papers we filled out that she in fact would need a wheelchair. This was highly disappointing! And if it weren't for the fact that we've taken many Princess cruises and built up many perks, it would be enough to make us not take another Princess cruise. Less

Cabin review: Sapphire Princess Mini-Suite with Balcony Emerald
Cabin E710/. Would book again in a heartbeat! Very quiet! On one side were the lifeboats. The only morning this was a problem was the morning in Santa Barbara, they used the lifeboats right beside us for the tenders and lowered them to the water at 6:30 am. Otherwise this was the cabin to have! Nice bathroom w/ tub and no neighbors below or on one side. Never heard a sound from Club Fusion below us.

Carrie Underwood, Breathtaking
[lastfm link_type=""]Carrie Underwood[/lastfm] certainly is breathtaking! I told you yesterday that she revealed the cover for her new album, Blown Away. If you haven't seen it, it will remind you of Angelina Jolie's pose with the leg sticking up and out on the Oscars last week.
Its sort of like, Carrie staring into the distance while wearing a stunning gray gown with a huge train billowing behind her. Now I feel like one of those reporters on E! Carrie juts out her right leg to show off her toned gams. Blown Away, will be released May 1, her fourth studio album. Since 05, the American Idol winner has sold over 14 million albums. "Good Girl," her first single from the new album, has received positive reviews and debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's digital country songs chart.

Migraine Medicines or other therapies
All of the sudden my migraine medicines (Treximet, Relpax and Imitrex) have stopped working and have actually started making me very ill when I take them.
I also started taking Zonegran as a preventative again after trying it before with mixed results. Topomax caused scary side effects so I can't take that one. The only other preventative that my Dr recommended was Lisinopril which lowers your blood pressure but I already have low blood pressure naturally and if I took a med that lowered it even more I would risk passing out.
My Neurologist is at a loss at this point of other meds to try. I have been through just about every preventative and pain medicine on the market and am literally at my wit's end.
I know my food triggers and avoid those but hormonal and barometric triggers are out of my control. My Neuro also thinks that there is something here in this area that I am reacting to specifically but I won't be able to get in with an Allergist until next month to explore that avenue.
What migraine treatments have worked for you? Have you had luck with chiropractic or acupuncture? What about natural remedies or botox injections?

Sorry, I wish I could help, but I've just started my journey with my neuro. How bad were your side effects on Topomax? My dr prescribed it, but I've been hesitant to fill the prescription since I came home and got on the computer and saw all the scary stuff...
Good luck to you. I know how awful it can be.

I take Maxalt & when that doesn't work I use the Imitrex stat injections.
As I get older the migraines get further in-between and in severity. I have been suffering with them since I was about 25 and I am now 57.

Now, that being said - I know people who SWEAR by the stuff and it works wonders for them. Topamax works for some people and not for others. It is a chemical that you put in your body and you just don't know how it is going to interact with the chemicals in your body until you try it. I would still try it if I were you because at this point I would try anything that MAY work!
Good luck!
I was hoping my migraines would get less as I got older but they have gotten worse since we moved back to the South. We suspect some type of environmental trigger but at this point we have no idea what that could be or how to avoid it.
Glad to hear yours are lessening in severity. My Mom got to the point in her 60's that they were very few and far between and she could usually trace them back to forgetting to eat, too much sunlight, dehydration due to illness or a food trigger.

I also wish I could help ... I also couldn't take any of the meds you listed, including Topomax. I also was prescribed a med for lower blood pressure and this did cause me to pass out a lot and I don't really have natural low blood pressure. I haven't tried acupuncture or chiro.
You know what does help me (if I catch it early enough - I have about a 30 minute window when I can tell if the headache is going to develop into a migraine) is super strength Advil liquid gels. These are 400 mg each and if I pop 3(!) during that window, it will dull the pain enough that it is tolerable (read: I don't throw up, I don't have to remain in the fetal in my bed and I could go out in the sunlight, if necessary). I also usually take another one about 30-60 minutes after the first dose. Luckily, I have no adverse side effects to Advil.
I talked extensively about this with my doctor and since my migraines are only about once-three times a month now, she said to go with what I know will dull the pain to a tolerance level. I live with chronic headaches so if I can tolerate the pain, then I can function. If my migraines became more frequent, we would have to find another avenue as that much Advil could become a problem.
Other side effects included short term memory loss (driving home from work and forgetting where I was going), tingling in my feet (at 9:30am every morning), the way that pop tasted (terrible - it affected my tast buds a bit) and nightmares.
Needless to say, I couldn't stay on the medication. However, one of my friends is on it and is doing fine. While I was on it (I can't remember how long - 5 months maybe?) I never had a migraine.
Good luck to all that suffer migraines - it sucks.

My migraines are triggered by hormones as well (stress sometimes too). Man they suck!!! I have family that says, "yeah..headaches stink". This is so worse than a headache!
Anyway, I did get some relief from the chiropractor. Lately, I have head great luck with Excedrin migraine. When I have feel a migraine just beginning to start I take 2. I also use that herbal neck wrap that you see at the carts in the mall. With those 2 things I can keep the migraine at bay or stop it in 30 minutes. And...I used to have to go to the ER for shots.
Good luck. They are so very painful.

I am so sorry for what you are going through. I have had migraines since I was 18, but with perimenapause, I started getting them 18-20 days a month, so started the gambit of trying to prevent them too.
Atenelol made me sweat...just sweat buckets, drip sweat, it was lovely. So now I take topamax. I am more distracted so do have to really really make an effort to stay on task at work (am a medical professional). I do not do idiotic things or make mistakes, just seem to wander off and not finish unless I make a serious effort to keep with my current task if you KWIM?
I CANNOT do math in my head on topamax, just can't. I have accepted that, and carry my calculator. SInce I know it is the medication, it does not make me feel stupid. Since I can still remember the causes of hypercalcemia and other important medical "stuff" when I need to, just cannot multiply 32 times 47, I am okay.
I, however, cannot take a dose of topamax that totally prevents my migraines and function in my job. I am taking 150 mg daily. Max dose is 300. No possible way I could be on that dose and not drool. Seriously.
So, I now have about 3 migraines a month, and Maxalt works AWESOME for me, 20 minutes, migraine is gone, and I am on with my life. It does cause a wicked pharyngitis for me, but at least I can function.
When I was preggers, I had acupuncture for my migraines when I had one, and it worked, but time consuming.

My migraines are finally down to mostly the "monthly" hormonal attacks. I can't take ANYTHING to deal with them because of allergies. I can't take preventatives and i can't even take a tylenol or advil once i get a headache. I have suffered for years with no idea what to do.
Last month after my killer hormonal migraine, i was desperately googling to try and find "natural" remedies. Somehow I came across a website about magnesium deficiency. I have/had practically every symptom listed. I was on antibiotics a lot a few years ago for chronic ear infections. My food allergies got worse, and I had to stop eating a lot of different foods. I ended up on a crazy restrictive diet.
Over the years I found some vitamins which I could tolerate and that helped a bit. I have always been aware that magnesium could help migraines and I have been on a calcium/magnesium supplement for years. However, the dosage is supposedly really low.
So last month I started eating peanuts every day (one of the few magnesium rich foods I can eat). When this month's hormonal nightmare came it was no where as bad as what I am used to! I didn't even throw up, which I always do.
The headache itself was way less intense and didn't POUND like it usually does. I am now addicted to peanuts and crave them like crazy. It's as if my body "needs" them. So maybe try to add some magnesium rich foods to your diet to see if that makes a diiference.
I am actually sort of looking forward to the next month's headache to see if it is as mild or even more mild. Hope is amazing!

I have had migraines since I 7, so about 10 years. I've been on literally every medication they can give me at 17. Topamax worked amazingly for me but I lost 40lbs, couldn't function and I was always cold. I had to stop that or else I would have failed my senior year of high school. I went all summer dealing with migraines again and my doctor decided to try prozac as a preventative (i also deal with anxiety so it helps that too) and I haven't had as many migraines since then. I still get like one a week but they aren't an every other day thing anymore.
As an abortive medicine I take fioricet. I know doctors don't like to give it out due to its high addictiveness but it helps! I generally take one or two and pass out or get weird bouts of energy. But the headache is gone.
Another thing you could try is biofeedback therapy. I don't know all about it but its basically trying to get you to be able to control all your vitals. Your neurologist should be able to give you more information on it.

Yes, I did have good luck with a chiropractor for my migraine headaches.
This was 25-30 years ago. I had them quite often, and was on prescribed medication but it made me so nauseous that I didn't always take it. My last migraine had me at the hospital getting a shot, it hurt so bad.
I decided to try the chiropractor, and after a few neck adjustments that was the last of my migraines.
For several years I still got the "aura" (squiggly lines in my vision, or blind spots) but I never got the actual headache. And that even stopped a few years later.
What do you have to lose to try the chiropractor? I would if I were you.
Are we there yet???

I get terrible migraines. Topamax worked, moved me from getting 2 or 3 migraines/week to 1/week. I didn't get too many side effects--weight loss & tingles. But then I switched to the generic, and I had alllll the side effects AND it didn't work. I switched back to the brand name, but I got to a point where it was just too expensive since it didn't get rid of my migraines entirely.
I'm doing a migraine trial right now, I think I have the placebo But it's apparently supposed to be a great drug, here's hoping it comes on the market soon!
My biggest help is my birth control. I'm pretty good most of the month, but then I get migraines that one fantastic week each month.

My nero Doctor suggested taking everyday regardless of migraine, magnesium and riboflavin (also known as B2). SHe wanted to stay natural incase I got pregnant. I would give it a try. Worked great for me.
The B2 you can get over the counter but I think the magnesium has to be prescribed. Like someone posted (sorry I dont remember who) I did the research and it sounded like low magnesium could cause migraines.
I hope this helps and you start feeling better.

FYI - The maximum Ibuprofen amount per dose is 1200. So, don't worry about your three... I've take 4 or 5. I haven't need 6....yet.
I can't take any of the new Migraine drugs. I have an RX for Vicoprofen, and take that as needed. It doesn't make me feel loopy, or sleepy - it just knocks the pain out. And I am beyond grateful that my DR is compassionate about the whole thing, and doesn't give me a hard time writing out a prescription for a narcotic. I bite one in half, and take it with an Advil or two. And if it doesn't go away, I take the other half with another Advil. That seems to always do the trick.
But he's a rare breed. I've had plenty NOT, which infuriates me. I had one man give me an RX for 800 mg Ibuprofen. Thanks buddy! 4 Advils. Whatta guy!!!
I used to take Fiorinal. Frankly, I liked those better - BUT they stopped working. It's been a few years, I should ask about those again.

What is the Save Me organisation and who founded it?
According to their website, the Save Me organisation is against the cruelty to wild animals, and providing them with a 'voice'. Founded by ex-Queen guitarist Brian May, in 2010, he noticed that many foxes were being hunted down for their skin, to make fox-fur coats, and wild animals such as deer were being ruthlessly killed for their meat, which in some instances, is considered to be quite a delicacy, and it's quite expensive, because this is really. What really struck Brian's heart is when he heard of the farmers complaining about their cows being unable to produce good enough milk, or even simply dropping down and dying, due to the badgers roaming the rural parts of the UK, with the deadly disease pathogen tuberculosis, hiding in their fur, he decided to do something about it, and this is when Save Me started up.
Once the badger has the TB disease on their bodies, and due to a recent medical study, they cannot be made immune from it. Many farmers have decided to do a mass killing of the badgers; or in other instances a cull. Due to being an avid animal lover, and raising hundreds for charity, Brian is currently campaigning and persuading millions of Queen Fans and animal lovers across the globe to sign a e-petition, in the hope it will persuade the PM David Cameron into not letting the badger cull commence.
|Brian wearing the Official Save Me T-Shirt
Earlier in October, Save Me won a place in the House of Commons to debate about the badger cull, and its future. This was going to be a key point in Save Me's career but… sadly, the badger cull campaign lost their two month running campaign, and the cull begins in November, but Brian is refusing to give up, but bold out the blue, it has been suddenly postponed. If you're not sure of this you can follow his and his assistant's Twitter online for more info.
How has Save Me changed the lives of others?
|Campaign poster
I haven't decided to do Save Me because I'm an obsessed Queen fan. I decided to do this, because being an animal lover and in my opinion, I think the badger cull is a barbaric and chemically unkind way to treat an animal, which has done nothing to the human in all its evolution. But if we compare Save Me to the RSPCA, Save Me only focuses on wild animals and preventing them from being culled, whereas the RSPCA focus their work on all animals everywhere, and don't work on government funding, on the other hand, Save Me do. The RSPCA take in stray animals and force owners to sign them over when times get tough, but Save Me, just campaign against animals being killed, so in some respects the charity is pretty much worthless. So if there was a vote for the best charity, RSPCA would win in a landslide, whereas in other respects, Save Me.

Found Objects – 8.20.2011
• At 3 p.m. Pacific today, the much anticipated match-up between LA's Drew League and D.C.'s Goodman League will take place. As you know, the Clippers' Craig "Rhino" Smith will be representing his hometown of LA. The game wouldn't be taking place, though, if it weren't for Kevin Durant. And if you haven't read it yet, be sure to check out Beckley Mason's TrueHoop piece on the Goodman League's commissioner Miles Rawls.
• ClipperBlog's founding father Kevin Arnovitz explores the different options the NBA would have for determining the draft lottery in case the entire season is lost. Spoiler alert: one option may have no Draft at all.
• SB Nation's Mike Prada ranks the NBA's coaches #1-#30. Vinny Del Negro came in at 26th, which ranked dead last among coaches with prior head coaching experience (Tyrone Corbin, Kevin McHale and Mark Jackson were placed in TBD due to either little or no head coaching experience; the T-Wolves currently don't have a coach).
• A few funny aggregations (and this one) of Blake's interview with the Champs podcast have arisen because of the following quote:
"We're playing the Knicks and I was walking back. It was a timeout, walking back to a free throw. You know how guys line up on the free throw line. And like, I had this horrible, horrible gas that whole game and so I let it go as I was walking back … And I line up, and look over and one of them is like, 'Oh my gosh, what is that?' And I looked at him and I was so worried that everybody was going to catch on, so I was like, 'Who did that? Oh my god! Are you serious?'"
• Chris Kaman had an impressive 17 points and 9 rebounds in a German victory over Belgian (although Dirk had to correct some of Kaman's movements).
• Randy Foye is the league's 46th worst role player, because he's not Willie Green.
• Mo Williams is working out with Chase Budinger, Richard Jefferson and Deron Williams during the lockout.
• After Blake expressed displeasure with his iPhone via Twitter, Director of Windows Phone Apps Brandon Watson proposed him "The Windows Phone Challenge"… and Blake accepted it.
• Mark your calendars folks. On Saturday August 27th, Blake Griffin will be attending the Oklahoma Sooner alumni basketball game.

As the new college basketball season is well underway, it's guaranteed that fundamental basketball will win more games with its controlled and disciplined play than street ball-style with its all-out sloppy play. The same rule applies for government relations communication, from winning at the Wisconsin State Capitol to success with a community funding referendum: An organized communications strategy is more effective than a plan with no rules.
Good Teams Manage the Shot Clock.
Every piece of legislation, election or public policy effort has a time frame defined by election, legislative floor period or budget year. A good strategic communication plan should be flexible while accounting for all of the time available.
Try for Three Pointers.
Getting an editorial board endorsement can be a coup for a communications campaign, and an issue needs to be properly set up in position to maximize the opportunity. Doing a newspaper editorial board with no message development before, during or after the meeting is missing the opportunity to even the score or pull ahead.
Don't Foul Out.
Meeting with busy editors and reporters with no real story for them leaves you with good cups of coffee, but no story going to print. Don't jeopardize relationships with these influencers by wasting their time—and ultimately yours.
Read the Defense.
If your opponent is successfully stopping legislation or is ahead in polling, ask yourself what their strategic communication weaknesses are and how can you overcome them yourself. Ignoring their advantages or underplaying the situation means you're giving them back the ball to score against you.
Don't Miss the Player Under the Basket.
When a reporter is interested, find the angle, interview subjects or material that is needed to put easy points on the board. If a reporter says he or she is waiting on a story, find a solution or define a time frame or move on to a better situation.
Take a Good Shot When It's Available.
The best opportunity for winning on an issue may be a news conference, telling an unreported side of your story or restating your position. Be strategic in recognizing how current situations can work to your message's advantage.
Don't Panic If You Are Losing.
An ill-timed news conference that conflicts with another news conference or media event is killer in government relations since lawmakers, interest groups and the general public' viewpoints are often defined by the appearances of the situation. No coverage of the event is a wasted time out that uses limited resources, hurts future media opportunities and leads to second-guessing strategic communication objectives.
Pick a Good Coach with a Winning Record.
A decade of being a Wisconsin State Assembly Chief of Staff taught me that fundamentals matter for success. Each of the laws that were signed into law under my tenure had targeted and customized strategic communications plans on the shot clock.

More Than $100,000 Raised to Fight Childhood Hunger
24th Annual Chefs' Feast Food and Wine Tasting Event a Success
April 1, 2011
OKLAHOMA CITY - More than 800 guests helped "Hang 10 for Hunger" at the 24th annual Chefs' Feast last night at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum. This tropical-themed food and wine tasting event, presented by Chesapeake Energy Corporation, raised more than $100,000 in net proceeds to support the Regional Food Bank's Food for Kids backpack program, which will support 500 children in the program.
Guests enjoyed delectable food from 30 restaurants, while also enjoying fine wine, prize raffles and Polynesian Dancers. Coordinating chefs, Chef Don Thiery from the Waterford Marriott and Trattoria il Centro and Aunt Pittypat's Owner and Chef Christine Dowd, were extremely pleased with the turnout and the fundraising results.
"Once again, the community supported this chef-driven event and helped make Chefs' Feast an overwhelming success," said Coordinating Chef Don Thiery. "The participating chefs truly outdid themselves and provided guests with some of the best food you'll ever taste in Oklahoma City. I want to thank everyone who participated and attended the event. I truly enjoy doing this every year, and can't wait till next year."
Guests also voted for their favorite chef to win the Foodie Favorite award, which resulted in a tie! A big congratulations goes out the Chef Kathryn Mathis and Cally Johnson from Big Truck Tacos and Chefs Ryan Parrot and Chef Lee Bennett from Iguana Mexican Grill.
Participating restaurants included:105degrees , Aunt Pittypat's Catering; Big Truck Tacos, Cafe 7, Casady, Cheever's Cafe, Chef's Requested Foods, Faculty House, University of Oklahoma, HSC, Gages Steakhouse, Iguana Mexican Grill, INTEGRIS Southwest, Iron Starr Urban BBQ, McNeal's Catering, Nonna's Euro-American Ristorante & Bar, Pachinko Parlor, Platt College, RED Prime Steak, Republic Gastropub, Rococo, Sara Sara Cupcakes, Sodexo at Southern Nazarene University, The Coach House, The Mantel Wine Bar & Bistro, The Metro Wine Bar & Bistro, The Ranch Steakhouse, The Tasting Room, Trattoria il Centro, Will Rogers Theatre, Waterford Marriott, and West.
Chefs' Feast is an important event because it helps fight childhood hunger by benefiting Food for Kids. Food for Kids provides chronically hungry elementary school children with a backpack filled with non-perishable, kid-friendly food on weekends and holidays throughout the school year. Currently, Food for Kids serves nearly 10,000 chronically hungry children in 367 schools in 49 central and western counties. Before receiving help from the program, many of these children had very little or nothing to eat between school lunch on Friday and school breakfast on Monday.
A $200 donation will support a child in Food for Kids for an entire school year. For more information on Food for Kids, contact Lisa Perry at email@example.com or 405.600.7154. To learn more about Chefs' Feast, visit regionalfoodbank.org.

Since its inception in 1980, the Regional Food Bank has distributed more than 388 million pounds of food to feed Oklahoma's hungry.

As a staple of the products we sell, our wholesale polo shirts are available in a wide range of colors, knits, fabrics and styles that are sure to suit anyone's tastes. Characterized by their "T" shape and placket with two or three buttons, this category has come a long way since its humble beginnings. Polo shirts, also commonly called sport shirts, golf or tennis shirts have their origins in a shirt that Rene Lacoste first created and wore at the U.S. Open in 1926. Seeking to be more comfortable than the available styles of the time allowed, he created an entire category of apparel that is one of the most popular and important in the apparel industry today. When buying polo shirts at wholesale, there are many important things to consider such as price, brand and style. We carry more than 100 different polo shirts for men, women and youth. Among our most popular is the well-priced silk touch K500 polo by Port Authority. If you are looking for a more basic shirt try something from Hanes, Jerzees or Gildan. If the highest quality and style is what you are after and you have a little higher budget consider polo shirts from Nike or Ogio. And just like our other products, you can buy a single item or get stocked up by ordering a full pallet; shop to suit your personal needs or to outfit your entire staff or team. Plus, the more you buy, the more you save - as your total purchase price increase, so does your discount. What's more, there are no order minimums nor do we require business accounts or licenses to place an order. We promptly process and ship every order, so your requested items should arrive on your doorstep in just a few short days.

CORPUS CHRISTI - A 78-year-old man went to the hospital this morning after he was stung by bees more than 100 times. The victim was in charge of a work crew was cutting grass near Lou's Saloon on Leopard and Navigation.
One of his workers says bees suddenly swarmed out from under a nearby railroad car used for storage. The younger man was stung at least 30 times on his arm while running away.
The older man suffered dozens of stings to his arms, face and neck. He called the crew from the hospital to let them know he was going to be okay.
This is one of many aggressive bee calls we've covered in the past week. Vector Control says they checked out 20 bee calls yesterday.
Tony Pantoja of Vector Control told us bee season will die down as the summer approaches, but for now, you should stay alert and check your home for any hives, especially in trees, electrical boxes and meters.
If you do hit a hive, Pantoja says you should take cover and do it quickly. "Run inside, get in your house or if your car's open, get in your car," he said. "Don't try to jump in the water or try to swat them or try to be a hero, keep going."
Keep going, and call call vector control to spray them down. You can reach them at 361-826-4622. Click here for more information on Africanized Bees and keeping your property safe - http://www.cctexas.com/government/health-district/environmental-health/vector-control/index

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Ford's troubles come at bad time for Katz
It may not hurt Sam Katz, but it certainly doesn't help him.
The moment on Monday an Ontario judge removed Toronto Mayor Rob Ford from office for violating conflict-of-interest laws, many eyes in this town turned toward the Winnipeg mayor, who is fighting his own conflict-of-interest legal battle.
Related Items
Katz will be in court this April over allegations he violated conflict-of-interest laws in this province when he spent $2,900 in taxpayer money entertaining councillors and city staff at a restaurant he owned at the time.
To be clear, we're talking about a different case involving an entirely different politician in another province governed by a different piece of provincial legislation. Yet it's hard to shake the feeling Ford's downfall will have a ripple effect in Winnipeg.
The Ford case does not serve as a legal precedent; the testy Toronto mayor is not the first politician to be removed from office for ethical transgressions, although he may be the highest-profile victim of this type of legal challenge. However, Manitoba's law is fundamentally the same as Ontario's. That is, a judge who finds a politician guilty of a conflict of interest has but one option: to order the office held by the politician vacated.
In a broader sense, the Ford case is just plain bad timing for Katz. Without suggesting a judge here would be influenced by what happened there, it would have helped Katz immensely in his legal battle if the whole country weren't involved in a debate over political conflict-of-interest principles.
Katz's lawyer, Robert Tapper, went immediately on the offensive Monday, suggesting the Ford case had no bearing on Katz's legal predicament. A master of hyperbole, Tapper said comparing the two cases would be like comparing "apples to horseshoes." Perhaps, but that is Tapper's attempt to focus on the differences to the exclusion of the similarities.
It would be hard to find a more arcane case than the one that brought Ford down. In March 2010, before he was mayor, a charity Ford founded accepted $3,150 in donations from lobbyists and their clients. The charity provides football equipment to underprivileged high schools. Ford solicited the donations using city council letterhead.
The city's integrity commissioner found Ford violated code-of-conduct guidelines and advised him to repay the money. Council voted to support that recommendation, but Ford refused despite six reminders.
This past February, council reconsidered the sanction against Ford, now the city's mayor. In that deliberation, Ford not only spoke to the motion but voted in favour of giving himself a stay. Those actions prompted a citizen to file a complaint that Ford had violated conflict-of-interest laws.
There are similarities between the Ford and Katz cases, starting with the fact it took complaints by people outside civic politics to spark the court action. And it appears both cases have less to do with magnitude and more to do with principle. Namely, that a conflict of interest is worrisome, regardless of its monetary value.
There are those in Toronto now lamenting the fact a judge has removed from office a politician who won a landslide electoral victory just two years ago. And given the paltry sum of money involved and the rather mundane circumstances of the transgression, that the punishment does not fit the crime.
It is true both Ontario and Manitoba law rather arbitrarily say all ethical violations, regardless of magnitude, should be subject to the same penalty. Perhaps a more complex law would have given the Ontario judge more options. Perhaps Ford should have repaid the money, paid a fine, then carried his conviction into the court of public opinion in the next election.
On the other hand, perhaps there is virtue in a law that warns politicians to steer clear of conflicts of interest, both big and small. Perhaps lawmakers realized that small ethical misdeeds are like gateway drugs; once a politician develops a tolerance for misdemeanours, they are more likely to experiment with more felonious forms of self-interested dishonesty.
And by the time an addiction to big transgressions is uncovered, we'll be left wondering why we didn't step in when the politician was dabbling in a more recreational form of chicanery.
