Submissions for foreign language and English as a second language proposals should include the following:
Preparing and Printing Your Manuscript Documentation Permissions Tables and Boxes Illustrations and Captions Style What Happens to Your Manuscript once It's Submitted
Preparing Files
Adherence to the following instructions will facilitate the timely, economical, error-free production of your book.
· Prepare your manuscript on the same systemboth hardware and softwarefrom start to finish. Yale University Press accepts text files in Microsoft Word (preferred), WordPerfect, or RTF (Rich Text Format). If you use a word processor other than Word or WordPerfect, save your files as Microsoft Word format or RTF format before submission (with most word processors, you can do this through the Save As command). For illustration files, see the "Illustrations and Captions" section, below.
· Create a new file for each chapter or other major subdivision of the book. Front matter, bibliography, and other apparatus should be in separate files. Do not put the entire manuscript into one enormous file.
· Name text files by author and chapter: jonespref.doc, jones1.doc, jones2.doc, jonesbib.doc, etc. Name illustration files by author and figure number: jonesfig1.tif, jonesfig2.tif, etc.
· Supply files on diskette or CD. Files must match the printed manuscript exactly. If there is artwork in your book, one of the files on your diskette should be an art log (see "Illustrations and Captions," below).
· With each disk or CD, supply a list of the files thereon. The file list should note the type of computer (PC or Mac) and the word-processing program and/or art program that was used.
Use no formatting that is not essential to your manuscript. Although word processors make it easy for anyone to produce an elaborate printout, the press is interested in using your files only to avoid rekeying the manuscript, and in general, the plainer the printout, the easier it will be to edit and design your book.
· Use one font and type size throughout.
· If your manuscript requires extensive use of diacritical marks or non-Latin alphabets, use a font that supports Unicode, an encoding system with all the diacritics and special characters a language needs. Gentium is an example of a free Unicode font. (If you use a non-Latin fontfor example, for Polish or Greeksupply the required font files with the rest of your electronic files.)
· Code any diacritics that your software does not support by inserting the name of the diacritic in angle brackets before the letter (e.g., "<macron>u" before letter "u" with a macron over it). With your manuscript, provide a list of characters for which you have used codes.
· Use your software's Header and Footer feature to indicate page numbers. Do not type the page number on each page. You may write page numbers by hand on the hard copy if necessary.
· Do not insert running headers or footers other than the page number.
· Do not use any type styles other than underlining (underlined type will be set in italics in the final book).
· Do not use Microsoft Word's Styles feature; in other words, the Normal style should be applied throughout.
· Double-space the entire manuscript, including contents, extracts, notes, bibliography, and tables.
· Use a ragged right margin, as with the type on this page. Do not justify the right margin.
· Use generous margins (at least one inch on all sides).
· Use the tab keynot the space bar, your word processor's automatic indent feature, or a "style" of any sortto indent paragraphs. Do not put an extra hard return between paragraphs.
· If you are using Microsoft Word, turn off all of its default auto-formatting features by choosing Autocorrect from the Tools menu. Uncheck all AutoCorrect, AutoFormat, and Smart Tags options.
· Do not use Microsoft Word's automatic list-formatting and list-numbering feature. To make a list, type numbers or bullets individually.
· Do not put "soft" hyphens at the ends of lines; that is, do not break words. In fact, it's best to turn off the automatic hyphenation feature of your word processor. The only hyphens that should occur in your manuscript should be in hyphenated compound words.
· When typing block quotations, epigraphs, etc., use whatever commands your word processor has for indenting the left margin. Do not insert extra spaces or hard returns between words to achieve the effect of an indentation.
· Align all poetry passages so that they appear on manuscript hard copy exactly as you want them to appear in the printed book.
· Do not use fields or hyperlinks. If you use the EndNote software tool to prepare your documentation or if you cite Internet addresses, remove the field codes or hyperlinks before submitting your manuscript.
· Do not insert extra spaces between notes or bibliographical entries, or to set off block quotations. If you would like a line of extra space to appear in the book to indicate a change of topic or an abrupt break in the discussion, type the code <ls> ("line space") on a line by itself. Do not use the <ls> code before or after a chapter title, subhead, block quotation, or list.
· Do not type a space before inserting a superscript note number.
· Never use letters for numbers or vice versa; that is, don't type the lowercase "ell" for the number one or the letter "oh" for zero.
Elements of a Manuscript
Your final manuscript should include everything that you intend to appear in the book, except an index. Assemble the elements of your manuscript in the following order (* indicates items present in all books):
*Half-title page (p. i): main title (without subtitle) or series title if book is part of a series
*Blank page or frontispiece (p. ii)
*Title page (p. iii): complete title and subtitle; authors' names; Yale University Press / New Haven and London
*Copyright page (p. iv; we will provide)
Dedication and/or epigraph
*Contents: list front matter, chapter titles, and back matter; do not include subheads
List of illustrations
List of tables
Foreword (by someone other than the author of the book)
Introduction (place here unless it appears as first chapter of text)
Abbreviations (if used in text)
*Text (begin arabic pagination with p. 1)
Abbreviations (if used only in back matter)
Endnotes (end-of-book notes): use short-form citations for works listed in your bibliography
Bibliography (not necessary if full citations are used in the notes)
List of contributors and their affiliations (for edited volumes only)
Footnotes (foot-of-page notes)
Captions for illustrations, including credit lines
Photocopies of illustrations, maps, and/or musical examples, with figure numbers clearly shown
Illustrations, maps, and/or musical examples in as final shape as possible, including printouts of art supplied electronically
Art log
Important: The manuscript (hard copy) and the disk that you send to the press must be identical. Do not make any changes to the hard copy that are not in the files, and do not make any changes to the files after printing out the hard copy.
Paper and Printer Submit two complete and clear laser printouts of the manuscript, using high-quality 8½-´-11-inch paper and fresh toner or ink. The printouts should be one-sided.
Pagination Number front matter (all pages before the beginning of the first text chapter) with roman numerals (i, ii, iii, etc.). Number the text and back matter consecutively with arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc.). Do not begin each chapter with page 1.
Please use a workable, consistent system of documentation. Yale University Press accepts either the note-bibliography system or the author-date system as defined in The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th ed., chapters 16 and 17. Other systems of documentation, if appropriate for your book and applied consistently, may also be accepted.
Numbering Number all notes consecutively beginning with 1 in each chapter. Do not number the notes in one sequence throughout the book.
Placement Notes should be grouped together in one section following the text. Regardless of whether the notes will be endnotes or footnotes in the printed book, do not print notes at the bottom of each page. If your word processor prints the notes at the end of each chapter, gather all the end-of-chapter notes and physically move the printed pages to the back of the manuscript. Title this section "Notes," and insert a heading for each chapter's notes consisting of the chapter number and title. For edited volumes with multiple contributors, each chapter's notes should be placed at the end of the appropriate chapter, after the subhead "Notes."
Avoiding Excessive Annotation To minimize distraction for the reader, combine citations for works mentioned in a single paragraph. Because the preface is itself a note to the text, it should not include notes. Do not put note call-outs on chapter titles, subheads, or epigraphs.
Shortened Citations For books with no bibliography, each work should be cited in full the first time it is mentioned in each chapter. Thereafter, use a shortened form, including author's last name, short title, and page number (Doe, Short Title, 114). For books with a bibliography, use the shortened form throughout the notes, even on first mention of a work. Do not use "op. cit." or "loc. cit." It is okay to use "ibid."
Reprinting of any copyrighted illustrations and text (beyond the limits of fair use) requires written permission from the copyright holder. Permissions must be in order before your book can be typeset. With your manuscript, include any necessary letters of permission to reproduce quotations, artwork, tables, etc.
Fair Use There is no fixed rule about what constitutes fair use. Some of the factors to be considered are the proportion of the work that is used, the purpose of the use, the nature of the work used, and the economic impact of the use. Permission is always required to reproduce a complete unit, such as an entire poem, chapter, table, map, photograph, or illustration. Note that the rules of fair use regarding copyrighted poetry and song lyrics are especially strictit is advisable to seek permission to reproduce quotations of two or more linesand that owners of song lyrics tend to charge a lot of money for reproduction, especially if the lyrics are used as epigraphs.
Consult your editor if you have any questions about which items require permission.
A sample request for permission follows.
To: From:
I hereby request nonexclusive world rights in all languages and media to reprint the following material:
in all editions of my work:
to be published by Yale University Press in the year __________, in an initial print edition of
approximately _________ copies at an estimated price of ___________. Other editions in other
media may follow. Credit will be given as you designate.
If you do not control the rights requested, please let me know to whom I should apply. Please use the release provided below, returning the original request form to me. A copy is enclosed for your files.
Permission to quote or reproduce is granted as stated above.
The credit line should read:
Signed:__________________________________ Date:________________
Tables and Boxes
· Type tables double-spaced, one per page, using a font size that is large enough to read.
· Make sure that columns are clearly formatted. Use tabs, not hard spaces, to define columns, and avoid tables with more than 10 columns.
· Number tables consecutively within each chapter (1.1, 1.2, etc.).
· Mention all tables in the text with such phrases as "(table 1.1)," and indicate on a separate line between text paragraphs approximately where each table should appear, as follows:
<table 3.4 near here>
· Group the tables in a section at the back of the manuscript.
If your ms. has boxes, number them, by chapter, in a separate sequence (box 1.1, 1.2, etc.). Indicate on a separate line between text paragraphs approximately where each box should appear, as follows:
<box 1.1 near here>
Group the boxes in a separate section and place them before the tables.
Illustrations and Captions
If illustrations (photographs, color transparencies, line drawings, maps, figures, musical examples, etc.) are included in your book, read this section carefully. Note that the preparation of your illustrations depends on whether the art is "line art"that is, only black and white, with no shades of grayor "continuous-tone art," such as photographs. Please see the appropriate sections below. Art that does not conform to these guidelines will not be accepted.
Numbering and Referring to Illustrations
If your book contains only a few illustrations, you may number them in one sequence (fig. 1, 2, 3, etc.). If there are many illustrations, number them by chapter (fig. 1.1, 1.2, etc.). Even if the figure numbers will not appear in the book, the figures must be numbered for our reference.
Mention all illustrations in the text, with such phrases as "(fig. 1.1)," and indicate on a separate line between text paragraphs approximately where they should appear, as follows:
<fig. 1.2 near here>
Note, however, that if all the figures in the book are to be grouped together in one or more sections of illustrations (separate from the text), you do not need to indicate placement in the manuscript.
Provide a double-spaced list of captions or legends, along with complete credit lines, for all illustrations.
Line Art
Line illustrations include charts, graphs, diagrams, most maps, and other art containing no shades of gray or variations in tone. Very simple diagrams can often be created by the typesetter and may, with approval from your editor, be submitted in manuscript form. More complex line art must be professionally drawn by hand or on computer. If you intend to do this, please see "Preparing Line Art," below. We urge our authors to hire a professional drafter, graphic designer, cartographer, or autographer (for musical examples).
Line art from another book can sometimes be reproduced from the printed originalwith the copyright owner's permissionbut how much it can be enlarged or reduced may be limited. Please consult your editor if you intend to do this.
Preparing Line Art
• Omit the main title from the figure. The title should be part of the figure caption, which will be set by the typesetter (see the "Captions" section, above).
• Shading or screen tints should not be used. Black-and-white patterns are okay. The width of lines (or "rules") should be 0.5 (one-half) point or greater.
• Most of our books use a trim size of 5 1/2 x 8 1/4 or 6 1/8 x 9 1/4. If the first trim size is used, the art should be no more than 4 inches wide and 6 1/2 inches high. If the second trim size is used, the art should be no more than 4 1/2 inches wide and 7 1/4 inches high. Your book may have a different format; check with your editor for confirmation.
• The type size you use should appear between 8 points and 11 points in the finished artwork. If your artwork will be reduced to fit in the book, the type must be large enough for it to be legible when reduced. Conversely, the type should not appear too big and clunky. For most books, set type for figures in either Helvetica or Univers. Some books will need other fonts; check with your editor for confirmation.
Files for Line Art
All files submitted for line art must meet the following criteria. If you cannot follow these instructions, do not supply files for your line art. Instead, submit the line art as a high-quality laser printout (the resolution of the laser printer should be at least 600 dpi).
• Art should be created on a Mac or PC in one of the following formats: Adobe Illustrator EPS format or Photoshop TIFF format. Microsoft Excel files and Microsoft Word files are not acceptable.
• If you must scan line art, use Adobe Photoshop. Scan the illustrations at a resolution of 1200 dpi and save each image as a TIFF file. Size the images to appear 5 x 7 inches at 100 percent.
• Do not place art in a Microsoft Word file.
• Do not compress files with JPEG, Stuffit, PKZip, or LZW.
• Name each file with part of your name, the figure number, and the graphic type: SmithFig12.tif, SmithMap3.eps, etc. Each illustration should have its own file.
• Supply a printout of each piece of electronic art. The printout must be made at 100 percent and must match the file exactly.
• Electronic art may be submitted on a diskette, Zip disk, or CD. Include all fonts on your disk, even if they are embedded in the files. Provide a list of files included on the disk.
Submitting Photographs
• Supply clear, sharp prints at 5 x 7 inches or 8 x 10 inches. For color photographs, supply slides or transparencies. We can use negatives if necessary, but a color-correct printed version must be supplied along with a color negative.
• When having photos taken, use a professional photographer. Photograph objects against a white background.
• We can use photos taken from a printed sourcethat is, photos that have already been screenedbut we must have either a good photo of the printed original or the printed original itself. Quality will be significantly lower than with an original photo.
• Laser printouts and photocopies are not acceptable.
Files for Photographs
We don't recommend submitting photos in electronic form, but if there is no alternative:
• You must be sure that the image is scanned to final printed size or larger at 300 pixels per inch (ppi). The image must be saved as a TIFF file.
• Do not scan printed photos without descreening them. If you can't descreen, submit the printed photo itself.
• If you supply a color photo electronically, you must also provide hard copy that we can use to match the color. A black-and-white printout is not sufficient; nor is a printout whose colors are not correct.
• Name each file with part of your name, the figure number, and the graphic type: SmithFig12.tif, SmithPlate3.tif, etc. Each illustration should have its own file.
• Electronic art may be submitted on a diskette, Zip disk, or CD. Provide a list of files included on the disk.
Tagging Original Illustrations
On the next page is a sheet of tags that should be printed out, cut apart, and affixed to your original illustrations. (Printouts of art supplied electronically need not be tagged, but figure numbers must be clearly marked on the printouts.) For each illustration, fill in the author name (i.e., your name) and figure number, and circle the appropriate size in pencil: "A" for a large illustration, "B" for a medium-size illustration, and "C" for a small illustration. Leave the rest of the label blank for the designer to fill out.
Scotch-tape the label to the lower back of the appropriate line figure or photographor to the sleeve of a color transparency or slideso that the label is readable when the illustration is face up and the top is oriented correctly. (That is, the label should be positioned at the bottom of the figure.) We use the label to tell us the correct orientation of the figure, so be sure it's placed correctly. Hanging labels should then be folded up face-to-face with illustrations so they will not be damaged in transit.

Art Log
Use an art log to keep track of your illustrations. A well-prepared art log, as shown below, captures all the information that you and we need and expedites the process of gathering and producing illustrations. The art log form is available in Microsoft Excel from your acquiring editor.
Submitting Illustrations
Place the elements of your illustration package in the following order at the end of the manuscript:
1. Captions, including credit lines
2. Numbered photocopies of artwork with any necessary cropping instructions marked
3. Original illustrations, including printouts of art supplied electronically. Original illustrations should be tagged with figure tags.
4. Any necessary letters of permission
5. Art log
Electronic art may be submitted on a diskette, Zip disk, or CD. Provide a list of files included on the disk and indicate Mac or PC format.
For matters of style, including capitalization, abbreviation, notes, and bibliography, consult The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th ed. Spelling, hyphenation, and punctuation should follow American rather than British rules. The Press follows Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 11th ed.
· Periods and commas go inside closing quotation marks, not outside them.
· Superscript note numbers go outside commas, periods, and parentheses. There should be no space before a note number.
· Use a comma before the last item in a series of three or more things: "this, that, and the other thing."
· Do not use your word processor's ellipsis character. (If you are using Microsoft Word, you can turn off all auto-formatting features by choosing AutoCorrect from the Tools menu: uncheck the feature called "Replace text as you type.") Instead, type ellipses as three dots . . . with spaces between them. . . . An ellipsis between sentences should be indicated by a period plus three spaced dots.
· Type dashes consistently, either as two hyphens--like this--or using your word processor's "em dash" character. Either way, the dashes should be "closed up"like thisnot surrounded by spaces. Do not use your word processor's "en dash" character.
If possible, run a spell-check to catch typos. Be on the lookout for misspellings of proper names and non-English terms, which your editor cannot be relied on to catch and which a spell-checker will not flag.
Titles and Subheads
Type part titles, chapter titles, and subheads using title-style capitalization (The Search for Community), not sentence-style capitalization or full capitals.
Remember that the typeset page will be more compressed than the manuscript page, and frequent subheads will make the text look choppy. If at all possible, use only one level of subhead. If you must use more than one level of subhead, add typesetting codes to ensure that we interpret the various levels correctly. Mark the first-level subheads with <txa> directly in front of them, the second-level subheads with <txb>, as follows:
<txa>This Is a Subhead
<txb>This Is a Subsection of the Previous Secton
Note that if you include one subhead at a particular level, you must have another at the same level; otherwise you have created a list with only one element..
Number chapters sequentially using arabic numerals. Do not number subheads.
The author and title of an epigraph should be given on a line following the quotation. Usually, no other source information is needed; however, if you feel that full attribution is necessary, it should be given in an unnumbered note at the beginning of that chapter's notes. Do not place a superscript note number at the end of an epigraph.
Use underlining only sparingly for emphasis. Do not use boldface for emphasis.
Small Capital Letters
Please do not use small caps in your manuscript. If a word must be typed all in capitals, use full capital letters. If you are using the Blue Book legal reference style, type titles in standard capital and lowercase letters rather than caps and small caps.
Web Sites
Names of Web sites should not be underlined. If the links were pasted into your files, use your word processor's software to remove the hyperlinks or retype the site addresses so the hyperlinks disappear.
· Spell out names of centuries (nineteenth century, not 19th century). If you need to use "th" or "st" for other ordinal numbers, do not use superscripts: 14th, not 14th.
· Spell out the word "percent" rather than using the % symbol.
· Treat ranges of numbers consistently: either repeat all digits consistently throughout the manuscript (114-115) or elide the hundreds digits consistently (114-15). (The exception is in titles of books and articles, where you should copy the title exactly.)
· When giving measurements, do not mix the metric and English systems. Pick one system and use it consistently.
· Do not use special formatting for fractions. Simply indicate them with a slash: 22 1/4.
Foreign Words and Phrases
It is unnecessary (distracting even) to italicize such common terms as oeuvre, sui generis, prima facie, and ménage à trois. The general rule is, if they can be found in a standard English dictionary, keep them roman.
Unfamiliar non-English terms should be underlined (italicized) only the first time they're used.
· Run in quotations of fewer than ten lines; that is, do not set them off from the paragraph but use quotation marks and make them part of the paragraph.
· It is okay to change the capitalization of the first letter in a quotation to make it fit your sentence structure without indicating the change with brackets. (Brackets are used only in textual editions and law books.)
· Do not begin a quotation with an ellipsis, and do not end a quotation with an ellipsis unless the quotation ends with a grammatically incomplete thought. Readers understand that quoted phrases are taken from a larger context.
Spell out such common abbreviations as "e.g." (for example) and "i.e." (that is) throughout the text; use the abbreviations in the notes.
If many abbreviations are used in the chapters of your book, consider adding a list of abbreviations to the front matter to help the reader keep track.
Please do not use cross-references like "(see page xx)." Using page numbers for cross-references is a sure recipe for mistakes finding their way into your book later.
List of Contributors
Edited volumes should include a list of contributors. We prefer a streamlined list including only names and affiliations. If you think it's important to provide more information than that, keep each entry down to a sentence or two.
What Happens to Your Manuscript Once It's Submitted
When you have submitted two copies of your final manuscript and the corresponding files, they are reviewed by your acquisitions editor and then released to the manuscript editing department, where the files are prepared for editing. The disk preparer converts the files if necessary; adds typesetting codes to identify the various block quotations, subheads, and so on; and removes excessive formatting and otherwise cleans up the files. How long this work takes depends entirely on how carefully you have prepared your files.
The manuscript is then edited. At Yale University Press, almost all manuscripts are edited on screen by in-house or freelance editors. Occasionally the editing is done with a pencil on the hard copy of the manuscript, in which case the typesetter inputs the editing changes into the files at a later stage.
The manuscript editor will send you files or hard copy showing all the deletions, insertions, and changes that the editor has proposed. If you receive files, you may either review them on screen or print them out and mark changes on the hard copy.
After you have reviewed the editing and indicated any final changes that you would like to make in the manuscript, the manuscript editor reviews and incorporates the changes, makes a clean printout, and releases the files and printout to the production department for typesetting.
Design and Production
The designer prepares specifications ("specs") to instruct the compositor, or typesetter, how to set the various elements of your book. The designer may also prepare sample pages to show the compositor how the elements are intended to look on the page. To create sample pages, the designers import your text files into their page layout software. They often use unedited files for this purpose.
The compositor formats the final edited files to the designer's specifications. Once the files are composed, the compositor sends finished page proof to the press, and the manuscript editor sends proof to you. It is at this stage, once the book is set in type and the pages are laid out, that the book is proofread and indexed.
The compositor makes the final corrections to the proof, and the clean files are sent to the printer.
Your original electronic files lay the groundwork for all the stages that follow. Careful preparation of your files is the best way to ensure that the finished book is as close as possible to what you intend. If you have prepared your manuscript according to these guidelines, the editing and production of your book may be accomplished more expeditiously and thus less expensively, ensuring the most timely publication of the book at the lowest possible price.

With all the chatter about new construction and eager buyers battling for a limited housing supply, it's easy to overlook the uptick in remodeling activity. Believe it or not, not everyone is looking to move.
When it comes to making upgrades, nothing can refresh a home like a new kitchen or bath. (Or both!) Over the past decade, each room has gone from mainly functional to decidedly premium. These are the areas where homeowners are really willing to invest for quality and style to make their home feel modern and elegant.
Professional Remodeler recently mixed its research with the findings from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Home Design Trends Survey and the National Kitchen and Bath Association's (NKBA) 2013 Kitchen & Bath Style Report to create a list of the top 15 kitchen and bath design trends.
1. Kitchens as social space, furniture-type cabinetry 2. Cost-effective, unfitted bathrooms 3. Transitional kitchen and bath styles 4. Emergence of quartz countertops 5. Color palette favors grays 6. White cabinets and blending finishes 7. Darker finishes, changing depths and heights 8. Undermount sinks create extra space 9. LED lights and reflectivity 10. Glass, ceramic, metal backsplashes 11. Creative use of ceramic and porcelain tiles 12. Increase of touch-activated faucets 13. Satin nickel, bronze, oil-rubbed finishes 14. Larger showers, better amenities 15. Pinterest & Houzz influence designs
Trend No. 1 — the kitchen as a social space — might be the most exciting for building pros, because it presents a truly interesting design challenge. As one builder told Professional Remodeler, "Kitchens have become the new living room, and as a result, they are more unique and collected in terms of finishes and vocabularies. I love hearing people talk about how important their kitchens have become to them, not just for cooking, dining, and cleaning, but for just hanging out with friends and family."

Ok so I have oily skin and thought it would be great to try a cheaper foundation (I bought this at wal-mart really cheap). Firstly I rarely have a caking problem because I have such oily skin and I apply only a little bit of foundation with a stipling brush, yet still this looked cakey. I tried all of my face brushes with this foundation, sponges, and my fingers and none of them would help me make this work. In the end to use up this horrible foundation I mixed it with other foundations I liked( such as the rimmel anti-fatigue foundation, or covergirl clean), but even doing that it made my face look cakey if I was not careful. The only good thing is the nice clean and easy packaging. So if you want a medium coverage foundation that leaves your skin looking cakey then I would suggest this, otherwise save your money.

I think this foundation is not so great. It's very blendable and doesn't make my skin break out at all. But it doesn't give a matte finish and, at the end of the day, it looks like I just bathed in oil. It also has a light coverage, which is not what I prefer since I have bad acne scarring. I just don't think this foundation was for me.

Amazing. It actually cleared my face, and the oily spots that usually appeared with higher end foundations; gone. I've used Physicians Formula for years because my skin will break out or turn orange by the end of the day with other brands.
Also, this foundation is easy to blend and was a fluke purchase. I was using PF Mineral Wear (which I hated .... so cakey on my face) and my face was breaking out and looking dry. I just needed something different quick and picked this up (it was advertised as new). Instantly saw a difference! Like I mentioned above, my face actually cleared up, my forehead isn't oily by the end of the day, and I use it over my Aloe Vera Moisturizing Cream (now Nivea Soft). My face is so smooth. I get asked all the time why my skin looks so great and what foundation I use. It's so natural looking. I use the 10 True Ivory and it's a perfect match. But like any foundation, personal experience is best. Some people have might issues with it and others may not.

I have to say, I really wanted to like this foundation. However, it was probably the worst foundation I've ever used. The colour was very orangey instead of beige. It was so hard to blend that it ended up being streaky and smudgy. Halfway though the day, it would slide off my face, and i'd be left with random orange smears. It was so awful...
I will never re-purchase this.
Also, false advertisting much? Stay matte? I don't think so. My face looked just as or even more oily than usual while using this product.
I wish I could go get a refund for this product.
If you buy this: i recommend getting it wayyy lighter than your skintone, and applying powder afterwards to assist it in staying on your face. Good luck!

I am constantly on the look for a drugstore dupe for MUFE Mat Velvet. I gave this a try but wasn't impressed.
First, I don't feel it is matte. It left my skin with a dewey glow, which is fine at first, but my skin gets VERY oily so I quickly look like a grease spot. I don't have time in my day to blot more than once and I was feeling pretty nasty an hour after my first blot.
Second it oxidizes orange on my face so by the end of the day I look like an oily Oompa Loompa.
Finally, I just wasn't impressed by the coverage--I felt like it was more a tinted moisturizer than a foundation.
On the plus side, the packaging was great but I won't buy this again.

I personally really like this foundation. I have oily skin that breaks out easily, and most foundations cause my skin to flare up. This one didn't, in part because it's non-comedogenic. Initially I found it a bit hard to blend, but i mix it with just a drop of moisturizer and it works great. It looks a bit shiny at first, but after a couple minutes, once it's blended with my skin, you have that matte look. I use a powder to set it and my face looks great for hours. I rarely have to reapply. I love the tube it comes in, it's so much easier to use than bottles and doesn't clog like pumps. I just with there was more in the package.

I have mixed feelings about this product, so bear with me :) I thought for a cheap foundation, it worked alright. I have very oily skin, and truthfully I haven't found a liquid foundation that really keeps me matte for longer than a few hours, so I didn't have high expectations for this one. I wasn't impressed with the color range, I got the lightest shade they offer, and I never have to do that, because I'm usually somewhere in the fair-medium range. So I feel bad for all the ladies out there with porcelain skin, they might have bad luck with this one. This foundation had a sheer to medium coverage, and I found I had to build it up a bit to get medium coverage. I would have like a fuller coverage I guess, but I was happy with how it looked on my face. It evened my complexion and covered some of my blemishes (others I needed concealer for) so i was satisfied with that. I found the formula to be really thin and runny, though I did get it for 75% off at CVS, so maybe Rimmel is discontinuing that shade or formula not sure. It blended ok and seemed to match my skin tone. It looked matte, and I also set it with a translucent powder. Those held up for a few hours, after that I used an oil blotting sheet and applied a bit more powder. I noticed no oxidation through the day, so that's good. When I got home for the day I was fairly oily, but that's the norm for me. All in all, I'm glad I got it for cheap, but I probably won't repurchase. It does ok and probably would be great for someone who has less oily skin than me, but I think I'll keep looking and experimenting with other brands and formulas.
I really love this foundation! I have oily skin but it holds out throughout the day for me. I top it with bare minerals and a translucent powder for extra coverage. I find that it is really easy blend and I was able to find a good color to match my skin tone. This was my first drugstore foundation..I normally don't like to buy them because you can't test them but after using it for about a year, I will continue to purchase it! The price tag is great too!
I love this product!
It does keep your face matte, to a degree. I have very oily skin. When used alone, I did noticed oil seeping through. Usually around noon. At first I used it with E.L.F.'s translucent powder and there was some oil. Then I used it with Make Up For Ever's HD powder, and there was little bit of oil. Pictures came out good though!!
But once I bought the Rimmel Stay Matte pressed powder, NO SHINE at all. It has a medium to heavy coverage. You will need to use some concealer around your eyes, nose and whatever red blemishes you have. It's long lasting. I feel like you might have to touch up around 3pm. It will depend at what time you get off work.
The packaging is nice. I like it. No messy liquid. The consistency of it is thick, not runny, almost mousse like in the tube. Easy to apply. Does not cake and blends well. I use it with a stippling brush.
I believe I have found my holy grail in foundations that's cheap. I actually LOVE M.U.F.E. Mat Velvet foundation and this is up to par with the $34 foundation. I would highly recommend to those with oily skin. But I would suggest to use it with it's pressed powder.

Not impressed with this product at all. I bought it after seeing some YouTube videos featuring it, and I love a matte look. This is not matte at all! I found the formula to be very sticky and thick, and didn't blend worth a darn. It feels greasy and heavy on. It actually irritated and broke out my normal, non-acne prone skin.

FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why should I pave my roadway, driveway, parking lot or cart path?
A. Pavement is not only aesthetically pleasing to look at, but also serves a real purpose. Pavement allows for a smooth surface, providing an attractive and comfortable ride. With Florida's well known rainy season, pavement is a great alternative to gravel, dirt, or shell, not to mention cleaner!
2. When can I drive on my new pavement?
A. To preserve the look of your new pavement, waiting a minimum 24 hours is recommended.
3. Do I have the same contact person from start to finish with my project?
A. Yes! At Seaton Paving, your estimator stays involved as your project manager, seeing the project through from start to finish.
4. Concrete VS asphalt. What's the difference?
A. The initial investment cost for asphalt is much less than concrete. Long term repair costs are also much lower with asphalt than concrete.
5. Are your estimates free? How do I get an estimate? How long does an estimate take?
A. Our estimates are always free!
B. You can easily obtain an estimate by calling us at 239-985-9860, emailing us at email@example.com, or faxing us at 239-985-9870.
C. Our estimators will provide your estimate in a timely fashion and can work around your schedule. Our estimators will be happy to meet you on site to discuss any questions you may have and go over your different options.
6. Is sealing important? ( BainSealcoat.com)
A. Sealing protects your new asphalt from a variety of elements. Gasoline and oil leaks from your vehicles deteriorate and weaken the asphalt, leaving visible, unpleasant stains. Rain is a key player to raveling; unsealed pavement allows water to penetrate the surface. Also, Florida's hot sun can dry the asphalt out (oxidation) leaving behind weak and cracked asphalt, eventually leading to major cracks and potholes. After a 6 month curing period, we recommend sealcoating every 2 to 3 years.
7. What's the deal with the name change?
A. We are under new ownership, but we are the same great people. Griffith Paving began in 1981 and changed ownership in August 2009. Jim Seaton, owner and operator of Seaton Paving and Sitework Inc., worked for Griffith Paving for over 17 years, becoming an expert in the paving industry. Seaton Paving's team, from the office to the field has remained dedicated to providing the same exceptional service and quality work Griffith Paving had been known for. New name, same faces!
8. Are references available?
A. References - please see References .

Konami has revealed details about a new PES 2013 patch set for release next Thursday, December 20.
PES team leader Jon Murphy says the key feature of patch 1.03 "is a full extension of the 2v2 mode, which was highest on the fans' wish list".
"While there was an acceptable 2v2 mode in the game, the team has worked to improve core elements to make it even more intuitive and to make it closer to the single-player experience, with better player switching."
Murphy goes on to say: "The overall balance of the game has also been addressed, and we've also taken the opportunity to make a few aesthetic improvements here and there, with the movement of players now enhanced and a number of new goal celebrations added.
"We've also rectified a couple of small issues with MLO and some of the Online Modes in line with requests from the fan base."
We said in our PES 2013 review: "Tweaked in all the right places, 2013 is the finest PES of the generation, delightfully recreating the ebb and flow of the modern game."

Do most countries have enough health workers?
Q: Do most countries have enough health workers?
A: Fifty-seven countries, most of them in Africa and Asia, face severe health workforce shortages. WHO estimates that at least 2 360 000 health service providers and 1 890 000 management and support workers, or a total of 4 250 000 health workers, are needed to fill the gap.
Sub-Saharan Africa faces the greatest challenges. While it has 25% of the global burden of disease, it has only 3% of the world's health workers. Thirty-six countries in Africa are confronting critical shortages, meaning they have fewer than 2.3 doctors, nurses and midwives per 1000 people. These countries are unable to provide basic, life-saving services in a consistent manner. For example, they generally fail to achieve an 80% coverage rate for measles immunization or the presence of skilled birth attendants. Without prompt action, the shortage will worsen.
In developed countries, a rise in chronic health problems among ageing populations and the ageing of their own health workforces has led to an ever-growing demand for health workers. The push of poor working conditions at home and the pull of higher salaries abroad drive thousands of health workers from developing countries to jobs in wealthy countries each year, making shortages worse.
To tackle this crisis, more direct investment in the training and support of health workers is needed now. Initial funds will be needed to train more health workers. As they graduate and enter the workforce, more funds will be needed to pay their salaries. Countries cannot do this alone, however. They need help from international donors.
WHO is urging all countries to make the health workforce a priority and put in place a national plan for managing it. Governments also need to invest in training existing health workers, to keep them up to date with changing priorities.

More on Counting Civilian Casualties
The online debate continues about a recent report in a British medical journal estimating 655,000 civilian deaths since the U.S. led invasion in March 2003. After my column on the study last week, lead author Gilbert Burnham defended its methodology in a discussion with readers.
Three British academics argue in Science.com (by subscription) that the study suffers from "main street bias."
"By only surveying houses that are located on cross streets next to main roads or on the main road itself," wrote co-author and Oxford University physics professor Sean Gourley in a press release. "The study inflates casualty estimates since conflict events such as car bombs, drive-by shootings artillery strikes on insurgent positions, and marketplace explosions gravitate toward the same neighborhood types that the researchers surveyed."
But Rebecca Goldin, writing for Statistical Assessment Service (stats.org) at George Mason University, rejected such criticism, saying the JHU study used statistical weighting methods that took into account the location of interviewees.
"The methods used by this study are the only scientific methods we have for discovering death rates in war torn countries without the infrastructure to report all deaths through central means," she wrote. "Instead of dismissing over half a million dead people as a political ploy as did Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic & International Studies in Washington, we ought to embrace science as opening our eyes to a tragedy whose death scale has been vastly underestimated until now."
I first wrote about media coverage of civilian casualties in September 2004, quoting the Gulf News' observation that "an eerie silence" surrounded the subject. Two years and thousands of civilian deaths later, the silence has been replaced by serious debate.

After years of "an eerie silence" on essentials concerning Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine, etc., hasn't the time come to leave counting to the accountants, and to rather delve deep into 1. WHY, the persistent "eerie silence", for so long? 2. THE HUMAN COST of that "eerie silence" (in all those countries during that many years)? 3. The cost of that "eerie silence" to US integrity, values, and institutions? Drop the obsession with "heroes". The need is quite simply to hear the facts and the truth, in the media, from normal, decent, courageous people, on what matters most in life, and cannot be counted. In other words, how soulless has this monstrously narcissistic society become? Make it qualitative! Just try.

"The methods used by this study are the only scientific methods we have"
What kind of asinine answer is that? Is this some kind of paraphrase of Rumsfeld: to go into the study with the scientific methods you have, not the scientific methods you might wish to have?
If you don't have scientific methods good enough to do a reputable study - and clearly they do not - then don't do the study.
It's like Rebecca Goldin never learned the acronym GIGO - garbage in, garbage out. The "study" is GIGO.

"What kind of ... answer is that?"
It is an answer excerpted from a much longer article that goes into great detail regarding the kind of answer it is, and why it is. It's actually pretty good, when you take time to read it.
Posted by: Pablo | October 25, 2006 09:37 AM
the only reason to discredit the study on the number of deaths is to negate, not ameliorate.
the obfuscative powers that be, Complicit Congress, Corrupt Executive Branch and dirty_handed Military Industrial Complex and related Lobbyists....
want what they want, to get paid and control.
THAT has nothing to do with how many people died.
If one person died and the only reason that we're over there is to control a scarce resource,
then that death is murder, if there's an alternative to business being handled that way.
IF I WERE PRESIDENT, things would be different.
I would issue some National Security based mandates.
1. telecommuting would become mandatory where practicable.
2. programs for using transportation more efficiently would be recommended and where feasible enacted.
3. I would put in place to unmarginalize our marginalized populations to have them contribute to society, by fixing the brokeness of their lives.
4. I would require classes of response to the problem of having a non_renewable base of fuel as a significant segment of our energy/transportation system.
and so on.
This is National FRICKING Security DA's not some wish list.
The only people that think that it is a wish list are the same people that tried to sell you homophobia as a _family_value_
and those people should be destroyed.
thanks so much.

A question to all naysayers of the Lancet study. Would you dispute the 6 million number of Jews killed in the Holocaust? Would you have a career left if you tried to "deny the Holocaust"? Why is it acceptable to deny that 650,000 out of 27 million Iraqis died because of a racist, illegal war? It is a shame that members of the American Jewish community, who were at the forefront of advocating for this war, is now denying the disastrous effects of this adventure.

Nice to see the usual blather on military-industrial complex/Haliburton/Gitmo/TX Guard/PlameGate at this site. The topic, however, is whether the JHU study that estimates 650,000 Iraqi deaths from March 2003 to present is reliable. Here's a quick test - what's 650,000 divided by 180 weeks (Mar 2003 - Oct 2006)? Answer: 3,600 Iraqi deaths, on average per week. Sound reasonable to you? Moveon.org, NPR and MSNBC might want you to believe so, but I'd say not. You can have dueling statisticians all day long, but whatever the "professional" opinion, 3,600 deaths per day on average doesn't pass the sniff test. Now move along...you have a new fire to throw gasoline on...GWB has changed his verb tense in "Stay the Course"!!! Keith Olberman at MSNBC has all the facts...go for it. Dolts.

trying to ask you to think about what they want you to.
that they are trying to negate the emotional impact of people dying for oil on the public by talking about people as a number not as lives destroyed, lost and having faces.
Like the woman who was raped and her family murdered so that she didn't have anyone stand up for her, or demand satisfaction.
the usual blather by tools of the machine, asking you to empty your pockets so that they can decieve you with total impunity.
get a clue, is a shill for the Military Industrial Complex, and not a very good one at that.
obfuscation doesn't require an IQ over 115, about four more points than in his WhiteHouse resume....he couldn't lick my shoes....but he can smell his stuff sticking to them....

Why the "eerie silence"?
"Did Israel use a secret new uranium-based weapon in southern Lebanon this summer in the 34-day assault that cost more than 1,300 Lebanese lives, most of them civilians?
We know that the Israelis used American "bunker-buster" bombs on Hizbollah's Beirut headquarters. We know that they drenched southern Lebanon with cluster bombs in the last 72 hours of the war, leaving tens of thousands of bomblets which are still killing Lebanese civilians every week. And we now know - after it first categorically denied using such munitions - that the Israeli army also used phosphorous bombs, weapons which are supposed to be restricted under the third protocol of the Geneva Conventions, which neither Israel nor the United States have signed.
But scientific evidence gathered from at least two bomb craters in Khiam and At-Tiri, the scene of fierce fighting between Hizbollah guerrillas and Israeli troops last July and August, suggests that uranium-based munitions may now also be included in Israel's weapons inventory - and were used against targets in Lebanon. According to Dr Chris Busby, the British Scientific Secretary of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, two soil samples thrown up by Israeli heavy or guided bombs showed "elevated radiation signatures". Both have been forwarded for further examination to the Harwell laboratory in Oxfordshire for mass spectrometry - used by the Ministry of Defence - which has confirmed the concentration of uranium isotopes in the samples.
Israel has a poor reputation for telling the truth about its use of weapons in Lebanon. In 1982, it denied using phosphorous munitions on civilian areas - until journalists discovered dying and dead civilians whose wounds caught fire when exposed to air.
I saw two dead babies who, when taken from a mortuary drawer in West Beirut during the Israeli siege of the city, suddenly burst back into flames. Israel officially denied using phosphorous again in Lebanon during the summer - except for "marking" targets - even after civilians were photographed in Lebanese hospitals with burn wounds consistent with phosphorous munitions.
American and British forces used hundreds of tons of depleted uranium (DU) shells in Iraq in 1991 - their hardened penetrator warheads manufactured from the waste products of the nuclear industry - and five years later, a plague of cancers emerged across the south of Iraq.
Did Israel use a secret new uranium-based weapon in southern Lebanon this summer in the 34-day assault that cost more than 1,300 Lebanese lives, most of them civilians?"

It is appropriate that during this Halloween season, The senator that aipac built (Nancy Pelosi) and her little Igor (screaming Howard Dean) both came out against Jimmy Carters new book, which compares Israel's treatment of the Palestinians for the last 40 years to the South African Apartheid System.
I can see them now; Pelosi, bolt necked, with the fresh scars of multiple plastic surgerys held together by huge stitches which criss cross her greeen tinged skin, followed by the Humped backed Dean, who parrots everything she says, followed by a little screams of anguish and ecstasy mixed together, as they do the bidding of the ones ensure their financial survival.
They also deny mr Carters very astute and critically important assertion that Israels Settler movement has been the cataylst that inspired 9/11 and the majority of middle eastern terrorist recruitment and funding (this view is actually shared by Bill Clinton, Walt and Mearsheimer, and a whole host of extremely credible people from the right and Left).
It seems that the major difference between Carter and the current Democratic elite is that he is no longer running for office and has the luxury of being able to tell the truth.
Please do not be shocked when Pelosi and Dean announce the draft in order to fight the very same wars the "Neocons" would ask us to fight in order to keep the Israeli settler movement safe. As they do, they will assure us all once again that, despite the fact that the people and governments of almost every single other country in the world disagree with them, Israel is not an apartheid state whose practices should be reviled, but rather, a special friend of the US for whom we should continue absorb massive terrorist attacks for and whom we should continue paying hundreds of billions of dollars and thousands of lives to defend.
Please compare and contrast Ms. Pelosi's and Mr deans Cowardice with Lincoln Chafees Bravery.
Chafee Single handedly sunk the bolton nomination. in doing so, he sent a letter to Condoleeza Rice saying that he could never vote for Mr' Bolton until the administration does something substantial to acheive the Goals of the road map and the removal of settlements in the west bank. He did this before his primary election and still won!!!
In closing, I would say that I hope there is a major change in the house and senate and ultimately the Presidential election, but I hope that those elected will see to it that weak willed, cowardly and self interested people such as Pelosi and Dean are shown the door along with all of the Neocons whom (despite all of the hot air they spout to the contrary) they walk in lock step with.

I have an area I've placed a terra cotta pot on a stand, which will be dripped. Trying to figure out what to plant in the pot. It is rather shallow, on the north side of the house, but, it gets a fair amount of morning sun until about 11-11:30 am, then again, in the later afternoon, about 5:00 pm during the spring and early summer. I wanted to plant a fuchsia, but, I think it's just too much sun. Looking for something with lots of pretty flowers, will grow up a bit but also trail down. I thought about Christmas Cactus (Schlumbergera), but that just doesn't blom often enough. I'd like something that will bloom off and on all spring and summer if possible. Love to get a few suggestions. Here's a photo of the pot: Patty S. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Patty, there are sun fuschias. Try fuschia, cape passionate pink phygelius. Not sure your pot is deep enough. I have one in a pot in full sun from 10am on...so far so good and my temps get much warmer than yours. Perhaps try ivy geranium or Lantana. Both should last all year in your area. |

Thanks goblue. I have a fair amount of ivy geranium, but that was going to be my "fall back" option. It's actually deeper than it looks (it's a really large pot, weighs a ton). Lantana might be too woody. I will try to look around for "sun" fuchsias. I would love to have one there, it would be perfect for this spot. Good to know. I knew there were heat-tolerant fuchsias, but that's not the same as "sun" tolerant. Appreciate the tip! Patty S. |
Not really for the flowers, but what about a fancy leaf pelargonium. How about a dwarf canna? Not really a trailer but... Francoa ramosa |

There's so much that is 'supposed' to like sun that really likes shade in hot socal afternoons and super bright open to blue sky shade with morning sun allows a lot of options. |
Phygelius is a very invasive plant here. Aggressive. Lobelia would perform in 6-8 inch depth and prefer shade during the heat of the day. The 'wave' petunias also (great drape). Both can winter over in our climates. And look well together. Browallia has purple flowers and needs some sun protection in our climate. |

How about a succulent like an echeveria with some donkeys tail trailing over the edge,or a rhipsalis draping over the edge.Both take little care.I have an echeveria that is a maroon color and a rhipsalis that is multi color,that would pick up the burgandy in the echie. Or how about an aeonium kiwi succulent,good color,again low maintenance etc,and will trail on it's own. Here it is in bloom Kathi |

Thank you, iris gal and Kathi. Kathi, I have literally thousands of succulents either in ground or in pots. I was trying to find something non-succulent for this area, lol! I will look into fibrous begonias, this might be a perfect plant for this location. Patty S. |
I'd also vote for a "Million Bells", Calibrachoa, and I'd put it with a white or blue Bacopa, and a "Bluebird" Nemesia. One each in that size pot. If you want a little more height in the middle, switch out one for an Angelonia, a. angustifolia. It's like a petite snapdragon. Great plants for that location. A dose of Osmocote at planting, keep 'em watered and you've got a combo that will bloom their little heads off all summer and into fall and live over winter too. They do like a bit of trimming and grooming a couple times a year to look their best, but mostly they're pretty carefree. I agree that lots of 'sun' plants do better with some afternoon shade in CA. Especially the bedding and container annuals and tender perennials like these. Nemesia re-seeds for me like alyssum , but I like that, and it's not really aggressive about it. The little seedlings transplant amazingly well. I just move them where I want them when they pop up in spring. Then again, begonias got me thinking, fibrous I think wouldn't drape well, but there are lots that do. Here's a great pic of Begonia boliviensis 'Bonfire' I think this kind also comes in pink and white. |

Thanks, Barb! Appreciate the suggestions. :-) Nemesia loves it in my yard, so definitely a great choice. Patty S. |

Lotus flower vine will spill over the edge and they like heat. The orange flowering one seems more robust than the red bloomer. It's too cool in my garden for them but a friend who has a hot deck in the sun got one in a four inch pot that has since filled a 10-inch planter from edge to edge in just a few weeks. It's covered with flowers. |

Thanks, elysian. This is actually a very good option. All the nurseries have this in stock right now, as it's in full bloom. Patty S. |
I have never had much success growing in containers. I made a lovely hanging planting with Erigeron earlier this year. It was so airy I loved it. Sadly it died because I thought I did not need to water on the days that it rained. I was wrong. I tried again with Lobelia and so far so good. |

Try to avoid this hotel. The cleanliness is very bad and the rooms smell cockroach killer. Breakfast is minimum (not even coffee or water). Most photos are fake! Hotell staff very unprofessional. When ckecking out, I was waiting 20 minutes at the reception for the cleaning lady to "check if my room is ok".

The campa is't for everybody as well as Shima or SRAM. It is all mater of personal preferences. Only think were both rivals can't compete with Campa is history. Personaly I don't care about it.
I would by Campa (i like thumb shifting, and like the looks of new shifters an whole centaur group), but that does't mean i should blindly belive it is somehow superior to others, or like "not for everybody". Cmon- milions own Campa- how it is "not for everybody"?

Here is a neat site that someone told me about. You can register and correspond with your old high school buds that you haven't seen since.... This is for the entire USA and all graduating classes from the beginning to most recent. You pick your state, city, high school attended and the year you graduated. You can even go to other cities and schools to find friends even if you didn't attend that school. The site is just getting going but there are a number of people from my class that have already registered. I've even renewed some friendships by email. The address is www.highschoolalumni.com. Check it out.
Here is a link that might be useful:

SEO Copywriting Certification Testimonials
"Heather's SEO Copywriting Certification Training includes monthly scheduled webinars, frequent video releases and a blog that is one of the best SEO copywriting references around. After reviewing the course for over a year, SeoPros and OSEOP is pleased to endorse the SEO Copywriting Certification training." – SEOPros.org endorsement
Wondering if you should sign up for the SEO Copywriting Certification program? Here are some testimonials from happy graduates:
As a newbie to SEO copywriting, this course was exactly what I needed to get my feet off the ground. I have been taking direct marketing copywriting courses to compliment my extensive research, writing, and presentation background. I am also a licensed Realtor in Texas and have been trying to build my small copywriting business. Since enrolling in the SEO program, the president/COO of the corporation took notice of my ambitions and has asked me to do the keyphrase research and writing for our new website, which will be announced and launched this summer.
This is a huge step for me as the brokerage I work for is the 6th largest real estate brokerage in the United States and serves Texas, Florida, Alabama, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
This course taught me a vast amount, built my confidence, and has helped me identify the areas that I need to gain more education. – Cheryl Olmstead
"Hi Heather,
I just landed my first SEO Copywriting contract! I've been copywriting for years, but I got this contract to do the SEO copywriting, so I'm delighted! I also have several other strong possibilities in the pipeline. SEO is definitely opening up opportunities because I can now offer my clients so much more value.
Thanks again! This is an amazing opportunity that I would not have if I hadn't found you!"
"Heather's SEO Copywriting course is the best. I found it enjoyable and easy to use, because Heather's friendly tone and clear explanations make it a breeze to understand. Heather is the only one I know who can take a complicated subject like SEO and make you want to read more!
Even more important, the course works! Using what I learned, I am now on page 1 of Google for my two main keyphrases! Before this, I was always out in Siberia, buried on page 99 or worse.
Anyone looking for an SEO Copywriting course, this is the one to take. Plus it's the only one offering certification – a huge bonus. Thanks Heather!" –Lynda Goldman
…The program has been very educational and enjoyable as the self-paced learning is perfect for my busy life. Lastly, I'm getting a bonus that I didn't anticipate; this course has really got me excited about writing again! – Ken Horst, Top Rank Marketing. (Read the entire review here.)
"Heather is an excellent educator with a passion for all things SEO. Her stellar SEO copywriting course strategically guides you through the entire writing process from keyword analysis to editing your final draft. Heather is an amazing mentor, always available for questions and offering great advice.I highly recommend this course for copywriters making the leap into the expanding SEM field." September 24, 2011
Heather Georgoudiou, Copywriter, Revenue Performance Inc.
"Working with Heather and the SEO copywriting team at SuccessWorks has been a pleasure! The team consistently produced outstanding content for our site that was well-optimized for search engine visibility. Her team's expertise and organization were highly admired. Any time we had an urgent request or copy concern, the team was happy to oblige. If you are in need of a professional writing service that is easy to work with and can deliver SEO-friendly content in a timely manner, I would highly recommend SuccessWorks to do the job!"
– Ana Taney, FYI Direct
I knew Heather's SEO Copywriting program would be high quality, after all she is one of the pillars in the SEO community and always over delivers on her promises. Plus, the fact this is the 2.0 version of her course. How could it not be a great learning experience? My concern was would I have the time to start and finish it? It's a 3 month 8 module course and with everything else going on in my life could I actually take this on too? Well, I dove in and am so glad that I did. Like with everything else she does, Heather makes the course fun. Her energy and spirit really come through in the sessions. She brings SEO copywriting to life and the course just flew by! Even if you are a veteran SEO copywriter, I bet there are still some tips that are well worth the investment in the program — at least there were for me. I immediately put some of them to use with my existing clients and got results. Oh, and after you are certified, you get to use a very cool certification logo on your website and marketing materials that differentiates you from all the self-proclaimed SEO copywriting "experts" out there..–Art Remnet, Principal, TheStrategicMarketingGroup.com
The SEO Copywriting Certification program has given me an added perspective and dimension to SEO and is a great course to go through for anyone interested in doing SEO. Content, is after all, king and getting the fundamentals right is key, but why learn SEO the boring way when you can choose to do this? The materials in this course are easy to understand, interesting, fun and thoroughly enjoyable to go through. -Esther Yeap
The SEO Copywriting Certificate program is the glue between words and technology. After taking this course, I have a solid understanding how to write web content that speaks to people's searching styles and is robot-reader friendly. The practical information and hands-on exercises anchored my learning experience and have given me the confidence to tackle any web content project with ease. – Lawrenn Ryon
This SEO Certification Program is a tremendous opportunity for all copywriters. It's like getting a masters degree in how to build your internet business into a profitable money making machine or provide client services to increase their revenue and profitability. – Abdul Shadid Muhammad
The SEO Copywriting Certification program is an effective and credible way to show my clients that I can make their web copy work harder for them. By investing in Heather's course, I've also invested in the future of my business and in the quality of service I can offer my clients. And even better, I've really enjoyed the learning process and had great fun along the way! I would recommend the SEO Copywriting Certification program to anyone who wants to know how to write better copy that achieves real results, for themselves and their clients. – Hannah Marcheselli
Heather's course helped me take my copywriting to the next level. After taking her course, I have found a better balance of writing not only to make the search engines happy, but also to get conversions from potential customers. Some of the tips I learned were simple, but extremely powerful. I almost feel silly for not thinking of them myself, but then again, that's make makes Heather the expert. Whether you are an SEO copywriter looking to tweak your skills or a small business looking to overhaul your website on your own, I HIGHLY recommend Heather's certificate program. – Amy Teeple
I decided to join the Success Works certification program after researching a lot of different options. It turned out to be a incredibly wise choice — Heather's program strikes just the right pace and level of detail for a writer looking to develop strong SEO copywriting skills. Best of all, Heather gives you personalized attention through her conference calls and emails (she responds thoughtfully and insightfully to all inquiries!). Her dedication to helping students succeed on its own is worth the price of the entire program. – Heather Mueller
The SEO Certification program is terrific for new and experienced SEO copywriters because it goes over every single strategy and "˜SEO how-to' you'll need to do a great job for your clients"¦ and even your own website. Heather's explanations are clear, relevant and highly applicable to today's web projects. Plus she's upbeat and fun to follow. I'll be extremely proud to add the SEO certification badge to my website and other sales materials for my business.

The SEO Copywriting certificate course opened my eyes to the nitty gritty of SEO copywriting. Although I'd been doing content writing using keywords for several years, the course offered more in depth insights and processes into choosing the right keywords and using them in a site as a whole. It's helped me be able to deliver better quality work and more extensive services to my customers. In short, it was just the thing I needed to revamp and improve my career.–Courtney Ramirez, SEO Copywriter and Ghostwriter, www.sixdegreescontent.com
Heather Lloyd-Martin's SEO Copywriting Certification Course has proven to be a game-changing investment in my freelance copywriting career. With Heather's expertise and skilled guidance, I now have the confidence and courage to call myself a great SEO copywriter, and claim it as my own distinguishing credential! As the acclaimed authority of all things SEO, Heather walks you through the whole SEO world, from her broad, real-life perspective and experience as the widely-recognized pioneer of SEO copywriting, to the down-and-dirty, devilish details of producing solid SEO content. Heather's expertise and authority is only exceeded by her passion and commitment to her students, as she readily avails herself as a confidante, advisor, and truly invested teacher. Heather's SEO Copywriting Certification Course is a truly life-altering program, one that has advanced my freelance copywriting career by a quantum leap, onto the next level! My deep gratitude to you, Heather!!–Laura Crest
This course is a blessing. It's a good chance to learn a marketable skill at a reasonable price, versus going to college. I love that you can study at your own pace. And best, I love how Heather is more than willing to help you throughout the course. She's always quick to answer your questions, and she never hesitates to help you. Knowledge should be her middle name . . . Heather knows a lot about SEO! Anyone who studies her course will surely know just as much too. This is the best amount of money I've spent in a long time!–Pamela Jones
I feel much more confident about my copywriting abilities for SEO now that I've completed the course. I was very surprised with the prompt responses I received anytime I emailed a question. The answers were well thought out and were obviously not canned responses as they were specific to the situations I had asked about. Good to know that when you take a chance purchasing a course online that there are real, qualified and accessible people backing it up. –Erin Donnan

Knowing where to start! Starting a project without having a clear understanding of how SEO works is like hiking up a mountain without a map. I have used Heather's lessons and class modules as my map, making the entire process much less overwhelming. – Marissa Bishop
I thought I had a reasonable grasp on SEO, and then I took Heathers SEO Copywriting Certification program. I learnt a heck of a lot and now putting my newfound knowledge into practice. To benefit their trade, all writers should take this program. Thanks Heather for making this program available. – Peter Safe
I am a marketing communications professional looking to freelance after taking time out to have children. I followed the advice given on this course and managed to bag myself two clients. So I am delighted to say that the course paid for itself. Thank you very much! – Claire Hawes
After completing the SEO Copywriting Certification program I feel MUCH more comfortable writing content and selling myself as a true SEO professional. Prior to the class, I had read many articles and books on the subject, so I wasn't sure I would get much out of it. However, I am please to report that the courses really help to put it all together and clear up some of the grey areas I had. Thanks Heather! – Sarah Johnson
My name is Dan Walton. I'm one of the co-owners of Studio Blue, a Pilates studio located in the pearl district of Portland, Oregon. If you've ever been to Portland, you'll soon realize that the market is saturated with Pilates studios. Especially in the Pearl district and in the northwest area of the city. We needed to do something to increase the number of clients walking through the door, and we needed to do it quickly. We were going to pay a firm over $5,000 to help us. Then, I met with Heather and she taught me how to write Web pages and research keyphrases for under $600. Within a matter of weeks I saw my client base increase by 20%! In a world of Portland Pilates, Heather has managed to get us to the top of all related Pilates searches. Heather is amazing at what she does. I'm forever grateful. – Dan Walton, Studio Blue Pilates
Wouldn't it be great to see the same success? You can, right now!
