Over the past few years I bought several of Ramit Sethi's online courses.
And they are VERY expensive! Especially for me. He sells it in US Dollar$ and I buy it in Indian Rupees.
But I found myself buying pretty much ALL this courses.
It's strange. I've never met the man, but he knows what makes me tick. He writes about the things that keep me awake at night.
Do you know how he gets me buy his uber-expensive courses?
Firstly (and most important) because each course has given me back the ROI. There's no way I'm going to spend money on courses that don't give results.
But building a great course is only one part of having a successful online business. Ramit also gets thousands of people to invest in them.
Many people say it's because he writes "good" copy. But I would say it's because he writes INVISIBLE copy.
Just like I buy from Ramit.
There are many people out there who can teach you to write good copy. But how many can teach you to write invisible copy? Copy that is not salesy but will get you customers for life!
Learn how to write invisible copy from the man himself, Ramit Sethi.
And he's conducing a Live Online Workshop 'Call to Action' where he'll teach you:
Nope, it's not expensive. It's actually free! Though it's worth a LOT of money. His coaching rates are $3,000/hour.
The truth is most business owners can't write invisible copy. But having this knowledge will give you the unfair advantage to connect with your tribe & grow your business.

I know a lot of people would FREAK OUT at the prospect of sketching. Me and sketch? You mean like draw? Like pretty shapes on paper? You so gotta be kidding me! I wouldn't know how to hold a pencil…let alone DRAW!
Look no one expects you to produce masterpieces.
So for a moment let us silence our inner resistance – the one between our ears.
All I want you to do is keep an open mind and read this post right to the end. And if any tip resonates with you, implement it in your life one baby step at a time.
Sounds doable right? Great! Let's go…….
Who would have thought that drawing can sharpen your sense of observation?
But it does so.
When I started drawing I always thought that to get better I had to improve my strokes. It's only later I realized that 50% of getting better is about being be a better observer. As a sketcher you need to keenly observe the angle of the light, the play of shadows, the grooves and the valleys.
From still life to busy street views….for an artist the beauty is in the details. Regular sketching will just make you more 'keen' when it comes to noticing things.
Leonardo Da Vinci dissected hundreds of corpses to get his images of the human body just right. And he said, "Painting embraces all the ten functions of the eye; that is to say, darkness, light, body and colour, shape and location, distance and closeness, motion and rest."
You observe stuff and it is processed by the left side of the brain. This processed information then allows us to act or react.
When we draw, this processed information is sent to the right side of the brain which then translates it into something creative, into art.
So both hemispheres end up working together and, according to scientists, this is a very powerful exercise to boost IQ. The interesting work 'Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain' explains right-left co-ordination and is an interesting read.
One of the best books that I've read, that explains the usefulness of sketching is 'On the back of the Napkin' by Dan Roam. I was pleasantly surprised to find that he actually suggested a process called 'visual thinking' to solve all kinds of what, when, how and why problems more creatively.
When you are stuck for a solution, it helps to pull out a pen and paper and start drawing.
We humans are wired for stories. When we see separate entities, our brain scrambles to come up with connections to give the whole thing some context! Using the frameworks in the book you'll have an answer that would have been difficult to arrive at before.
Ben Casanocha notes on this blog "if you want to identify the most senior, knowledgeable people in an audience, look for the people who are taking notes and asking questions." http://casnocha.com/2013/07/experts-take-notes.html Some of the greatest minds in history like Edison & Da Vinci were notetakers.
Efficient learning involves remarkable note-taking and accurate recall. Drawing incidentally can help with both components of being a 'superb' learner.
Sketchnoting has been popularized by designer Mike Rhode in the 'The Sketchnote Handbook' and is simple as well as entertaining.
It encourages you to summarize something long, boring or difficult to express using a mish-mash of doodles and text. You thus waste less time taking 'blah' notes and instead take visual notes that are crisp & easy to refer back to. The example below shows the fears and apprehensions of the creator about his pending thyroid surgery.
Mindmapping (something I use all the time) is the process of associating several ideas with a core concept. Developed by Tony Buzan mind-maps are used all over the world, from classrooms to boardrooms.
Have you ever felt overwhelmed? By all the data you need to cram in your head? If you are a student, I am sure you are nodding pretty enthusiastically.
Well mind maps allow you to jot down data and the connections between the information bites. This helps you remember the complete picture easily. And yes, you got it right. It is amazing for brainstorming sessions as well.
Both 'sketchnotes' and 'mindmaps' rely on the fact that visual data is processed 60,000 times faster than text and audio.
Finally drawing can teach us important lessons of mindfulness and being in the present. It forces your busy mind to slow down. It forces you to concentrate on the blank paper and your chosen subject. It literally takes you away from the worries of that exam, that EMI or that customer.
Many people face resistance when it comes to drawing because they believe they must be artists in order to 'draw'.
That is not true!
If your doodles please the public- great! However if they don't, it shouldn't deter you from this pleasing, effective and beneficial exercise. Implement it in different areas of your life and see the difference.
Have you ever tried any of these drawing techniques to improve your life and work? Let me know in the comments below.

You either journal or you don't. And if you don't, it is likely you would very much like to develop the habit. There is something very attractive about the idea of putting down our innermost thoughts, feelings and desires to paper. It somehow leaves us more enriched and gives our busy day a neat conclusion.
Journaling impacted me early on. Adventurous and resourceful characters like Doogie Howser, the teenage physician and the inimitable Mr. Belvedere ended their day with their musings. Sometimes profound, sometimes witty, their entries always brought a smile to my lips.
And who can forget the 'Captain Log' maintained by Starfleet officer Jean Luc Picard. The truth is, from Benjamin Franklin to the solitary genius Leornardo Di Caprio; great men and women have frequently maintained journals (or diaries) to self-reflect.
Journaling is sacred time. Something about the idea of distancing oneself from hustle and bustle to write about the day gone by is romantic to say the least. It makes one feel spiritually sophisticated.
I am no different. I have repeatedly tried to establish some sort of 'me' time routine. I have used physical diaries and digital notepads. I have written heaps and I have practised brevity. But something has always thrown a wrench in the works. I have started strong and then lost my momentum bringing my grand journaling plans to a grinding halt. Until recently that is…
Thankfully stepping into this brand new year I have been a good little journaling boy scout for more than 40 days. And you know what they say about forming a new habit. All it takes is 3-4 weeks. : )
So I understand it may be easy to just 'let it slip'. After all no one is likely to pay you for your efforts or have a life changing epiphany thanks to your musings. But the steady habit of journaling matters. And you will see why.
Now that I realize the benefits of maintaining a regular journal, I do wish I could have started much earlier. I believe that the trio of these pitfalls held me back:
– No fixed 'journaling' routine. It had always been an 'as and when I get time' affair.
– No guidelines as to what I should write about. I thought journaling stands for keeping a log of monumental events. What if there was nothing significant to commit to paper? Then what?
– No nagging feeling of loss if I didn't journal. It was a 'cool' thing to do with some vague rewards attached. I didn't really have the genuine impetus to do it.
Consistency came when I understood the true importance of maintaining a diary as it pertains to my life. And the potential losses if I didn't stick to the routine! It was quite a self-revelation. Incidentally a little plugin had a lot to do with it.
• I gave myself the gift of time when I installed the Gmail Pause plugin! If you do not know what it is capable of doing, you need to read this post by Ali. Trust me it will completely get rid of your wasteful email obsession.
• Naturally without 'mail addiction' I could think straight. I focused on my life and my habits in particular. I have always been an advocate of being productive. So I am no stranger to the importance of a morning ritual. Well considering our lifestyle of stress and competition, I think it is equally important to 'calm' and 'relax' oneself with a familiar ritual before winding down for the night. Leo Babuta talks about it in his book 'The Power of Less'.
The philosophy hit home! I was so used to dancing to the tune of my inbox. Checking mails and surfing the web incessantly and then scrambling to get a pending 'to-do' task done! Needless to say, I would be utterly exhausted by the time my head hit the pillow. And that isn't a nice feeling. However thanks to the trusty Gmail Pause application, my day now closes with the simple three step ritual:
– Checking my 'To-Do' list for the last few pending tasks I can attend.
– Either completing them or deferring them for the date I can attend to them.
– Then settling in with my journaling
With a definite 'when' one part of the trifecta that kept derailing me was eliminated.
• The next two also disappeared when I stumbled upon this beautiful quote from 'A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I learned while editing my life' by Donald Miller.
"THE SADDEST THING about life is you don't remember half of it. You don't even remember half of half of it. Not even a tiny percentage, if you want to know the truth. I have this friend Bob who writes down everything he remembers. If he remembers dropping an ice cream cone on his lap when he was seven, he'll write it down. The last time I talked to Bob, he had written more than five hundred pages of memories. He's the only guy I know who remembers his life. He said he captures memories, because if he forgets them, it's as though they didn't happen; it's as though he hadn't lived the parts he doesn't remember."
It is painfully true. I remember only a handful of high tension, high emotion highlights of my life. The hundreds of tiny incidents which have shaped me as a man have been rubbed clean from my mental slate. I decided then and there that I wanted to retain more of what I was doing and the impact I was creating on my family and society. And before I knew it, the desire to journal had crystallized into determination.
The things that make you happy and grateful! Journaling is giving your memories a permanent home. It is a 'vehicle for mindfulness'. It doesn't matter how bland or eventful the day was, write down anything and everything you want to recall. The big and the small. What did you learn today? Did you have a moment of bliss? Who made you smile? Journal randomly!
Or if that seems to go against your nature, you can rely on Michael Hyatt's template.
Written by Todd Henry, The Accidental Creative is the handbook for being brilliant. And you can borrow from it to grow the much needed journalling confidence. Many of us shrink away from this great tool just because we feel we can't create 'publish' worthy work. Guess what? You aren't going to share your journal with the world. Because if you do, you may start moderating your own feelings and experiences! Journaling is the mask of anonymity you wear to shout out the truth. Keep it that way.
Following The Accidental Creative principles, I tend to:
• Write fast and without too much preparation to allow my natural style to shine through.
• Work against a time limit! Don't sit with a blank page for hours. Urgency is important. At least when you are forming your habit. As you evolve into a journaling pro, you can break the rules.
• Write the way I think. I do not try and channel my favourite author. It's just my voice walking me through another precious day I may like to remember 5 years down the line.
Charles Duhigg, author of 'The Power of Habit' says something really powerful. He tells us that writing a thought, is far more important than the actual words used. The mere fact that you take time out to put your words down, even if they are just partially relevant, strengthens recall of feelings and memories at a later date.
So if have had an emotional and stressful day and in your journal you simply jot "emotional and stressful" and nothing else, those three words can still help you remember the details that would otherwise be lost forever.
Journalling is an act of closure. It gives you a sense of peace and some beautiful moments to look back upon. So when are you going to start? The best time was 20 years ago. The next best is right now!
I've just got to tell you about this!
Because its downright amazing how a small piece of software can have such a massive impact on a personal & professional level. I mean really! I'm 4 times as productive as I used to be, before I stumbled upon this little miracle.
And no, I am not exaggerating.
I'm sure by now you're wondering what I'm talking about, so let me explain!
You know what it's like to live with email client on your phone. You check it not just every day, not just during work hours. But Every. Freaking. Minute. Even in places I have no intention of committing to a public platform. In short the pre-occupation with email is no different than an addiction.
Basically I was an addict. I was addicted to email. I needed to know who sent me what, otherwise I just couldn't take the next step.
However to my comfort, it was not just me. Almost everyone who has an email address is addicted to email. And that's a lot of people! Nir Eyal explains it well in his book Hooked. He says that emails generally bring in excitement – a contact with someone we desire to associate with. In short it is a reward and our brain can't get enough of the stimulation.
When looking for ways to become more productive, I came across this innocuous plugin sitting in a quiet corner of the internet, called Inbox Pause. After I installed it, 3 things happened:
Here's a verbatim definition, directly from the website:
"With INBOX PAUSE, you can put new messages on hold, making it so they won't appear in your Inbox until you are ready for them. Paradigm shifted."
A shift indeed! After I installed the plugin and used the simple 'Pause' button, it showed me this message:
It customized the easy settings to allow emails to hit my inbox only at 8:30 am, 1:00 pm & 5:00pm.
Is that it? Yes that's it.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
You may be thinking, "Oh I don't need a plugin to stop me from checking email. I'll just close my browser tab. And email is gone!"
But here's the thing, closing the browser won't solve the problem because:
You need to try to 'Pause' your Inbox to believe it.
It is liberating.
The beauty of this plugin lies in what happens after the Inbox is paused. All of a sudden you start thinking, "Hmm… I can't check my email. So what do I do now?"
*twiddle your thumbs for some time*
"Wow I never realized I have so much time on my hands."
So Instead of checking your email you make a habit of perusing your todo list. At least that is what happened to me.
One task at a time, I start working on my pending action items. Before I knew it, I had gotten so much done!
Post Inbox Pause, life changed for the better:
I'm not suggesting or advising you to install this plugin!
I'm ordering you to do it.
Here's the link. It's free.
Come back in a week and tell me about your new life! But don't email me… cause I may not be checking it like my life depends on it!]]>
First it was the hostesses at British Airways Airlines who joined their hands to greet us in a namaste. The Fins took it a step further and did an entire dance in celebration of Indian Republic Day. Lastly, Luftansa joined the bandwagon, assuring us that they are "more Indian than you think".
Gosh, not sure what to make of it. It's flattering nonetheless. Anyway, have a look at the below promotions of the three airlines:
I've recently been reading Ramit Sethi's blog.
One of his advice I've been using is "Be Brutally Honest".
Here's how this advice helped me recently. I've been delaying creating Kindle versions of my Sufi Comics books. I would give the usual excuses:
"I don't have time"
"This is going to be difficult"
"It's too much work"
But these were surface level excuses. When I became brutally honest with myself, I found the real reason for procrastinating was spending too much time on low priority tasks.
I cut down on some of those tasks and made a simple next action of doing one thing ie posting a job requirement on odesk.
Within a week from that date, the Kindle books were done! Wow, something that I was procrastinating for more than a year, got done is less than a week.
If you like Ramit Sethi's blog, I'd recommend his SuccessTriggers course.]]>
Steve Jobs commencement address at Stanford, is inspiring. I've watched it a couple of times. A line that stood out for me is when Steve says, "I was lucky — I found what I loved to do early in life."
Well friends, now, I've gotten lucky too.
Since December 2012, I have involved myself in a passionate project. A project that has taken over every single waking moment. This is not like the flings that I have had in the past. In fact it's like falling in love all over again. It's deeper than that. It's love with a purpose, a higher purpose.
Oh how much I love learning and how much I love teaching. I've covered the walls of my office with books. I'm constantly consuming content. While having lunch, or driving to work even when working out at my gym, I'm always listening or watching a lecture (an occasional movie). (On a side note, these days, I use several techniques, tips, tricks to speed up the rate of which I consume material, but that's a story for another blog post).
It's when I'm learning that I am the happiest. The only thing that makes me happier than gobbling up books and videos, is by serving content instead. Hence, I love writing,I love drawing and i love delivering the occasional speech too.
Schooling was a dream project since…since…well since I was in school. As a school boy, I remember overseeing my principal making the bus schedule and I was mentally making notes on how he was going about it.
Even today, walking through any school hallways, observing classrooms I'm in awe. The transformation that's taking place in classrooms. In every class, there's the teacher. Impacting the the lives of generations.
Life gifted me with amazing teachers. (Even today God has blessed me with an amazing teacher/mentor). The golden lessons I learnt at school then, I teach my kids today. While whispering a silent prayer to my educators.
An impulsive phone call led myself and seven other also passionate friends to get into a conference room. This was around the Christmas of 2012.
We poured our hearts out at one marathon meeting after another. Week after week, midnight after midnight, we clarified our vision. We went to the depths of the question why we wanted to start a school in the first place. We finally were as specific as we could be to what we wanted and what we didn't.
We had clarity, took the plunge and committed to a property where our children would study. Our dream was on its way to become reality. And as of today, it's turning out way better than we had imagined!
With tremouondous excitement and a fair dollop of nervousness we launched ILM Montessori and began our academic year on 18 June 2012. It has been heaven since then.
Our Journey so far:
We've been documenting our journey at our blog. Here are some of our high points:
– We hosted the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art exams
– We received heart-warming testimonials from our parents. Watch them here.
– We've documented our learnings into our hit report. How to select a Preschool for your child.
– Currently we are preparing and rehearsing for our Annual day celebration.
Gosh, I love this project. However, it's not always been smooth sailing. We've had our share of downs. But even when setbacks hit, we do what it takes to get up and get rolling again. I often reflect why am I so attached to this project/venture then others. Clear reasons surface.
1. The purity and selflessness at ILM Montessori: One of the reasons why we wanted to start our own school is because of the rampant commercialisation of education. In a commercial educational venture there's always the possibility of self-interest taking over the interest of the school or children. ILM Montessori is a non-profit venture. The trustees have no profitable stake in it whatsoever. So why are we still so involved, it's not for they money, it's because we are in love with ILM. We do charge close to commercial rates. We do that so we can give our savings back to the school in terms of better salaries, better infrastructure and better facilities.
2. Working with an amazing diverse group:
Working with our group of Trustees. Every meeting of ours I feel even more motivated and charged towards the project. My daughter studies at ILM Montessori. She does so because I want to put her in a school where it is these people who are in charge. I have complete confidence in their integrity, sincerity and passion. There's magic when working with a group of skilled, motivated, sincere individuals. At times that's all on needs. Other perks begin to seem trivial.
3. The immense intangible reward of the project itself:
During my day job I'm involved with a team to create and sell homes and office spaces. Seeing a real-estate project come to life has it's thrills. But it's no comparison against crafting beautiful minds, shaping purposeful lives and working on changing the world for a better tomorrow. As I've mentioned, I have had amazing teachers. I can do the things that I do, because of my teachers. I am the person I am, because of my teachers. Here's a chance for me to be part of that great tradition and help give a little back.
To paraphrase another Steve Jobs quote. In one of his last ever interviews Steve speaks about the secret of success.
He says if you look at those who have been successful, a quality that they all have is that they are insanely passionate about what they do. That passion helps them when the going gets tough. Because when things are really difficult, a sane person would do the most obvious natural expected thing. He would quit. Why, because he is sane.
It's the crazy passionate individual who pushes through. Because he's not in it for the money. He's not it for they glory. He's doing it because that's all that he loves doing. It is he who is often successful.
We started our school with just Pre-Primary. Now, in the forthcoming academic year we are beginning the Primary section of our school. We're great believers in the beauty and elegance of the Montessori system. For the first three Primary years we will continue to follow the Montessori methodology. Do wish us luck and Please pray for our success.

"Getting things done is not the same as making things happen.
You can…
…reply to email.
…pay the bills.
…cross off to-do's.
…fulfil your obligation.
…repeat what you heard.
…go with the flow.
…anticipate roadblocks.
…aim for "good enough."
Or you can…
…organise a community.
…take a risk.
…set ambitious goals.
…give more than you take.
…change perceptions.
…forge a new path.
…create possibility.
…demand excellence.
Don't worry too much about getting things done.
Make things happen."

But I've also noticed that goals can become a source of unhappiness.
Let me explain.
A person with a Goal mindset often thinks in this way "If I get [goal here] then I'll be happy". As a result our Happiness gets pegged with achieving the Goal.
And once you reach your Goal, you plan for the next Goal starting a new cycle of wanting something to be happy.
Here are some more problems with having a Goal mindset:
Here's something I found better than goals.
Instead of focusing on reaching your Goals, focus on creating the right Habits. In doing so:
For example, if your Goal is to lose 5 Kg in the next 3 months. Focus on creating a Habit like "Workout at the gym 5 days a week".
Now inspite of your best efforts if you've not lost those 5 kg, that's ok. You've done something better… you've formed the habit of exercise that will keep you health for the rest of your life.
Isn't that better than just losing 5 kg and putting that weight back on after 3 months?
Here are some more examples of forming Habits from your Goals:
You get the point :-)
Ok, let me clarify something. I'm not saying "Don't make Goals", what I'm saying is don't have a Goal mindset where you've set all your hopes and dreams on achieving that one Goal.
Instead put your attention in forming habits that will take you towards your Goal.
It's the new Year, and many of us are making Goals. I've made Goals as well, and for each Goal I'm focusing on a Habit to support the Goal. What are your plans for 2014? Share your thoughts in the comments section below:]]>
Most ads speak about the greatness of their products. Not this ad. Yet I'm convinced to try it out. And they executed the ad in under 15 seconds, with just one actor and a minimalist set. Now that's advertising!
Here are some solid ad headlines:

Eleven weeks ago BP's Deepwater Horizon oil platform exploded into the Gulf of Mexico, killing 11 workers. Since the explosion thousands upon thousands of barrels of oil have spewed into this precious ecosystem, hundreds of wildlife have been affected, the fishing industry has been decimated, and an entire culture is being threatened.
Greenpeace scientists and volunteers have been in the Gulf since week one collecting data and exposing the largest environmental disaster of our time. Using our boats, planes and expertise we've helped reporters gain access to hard to reach areas and documented the disaster ourselves every step of the way. Here are some of our most powerful photos, along with those of others, to share with you what we've seen in the past 11 weeks. On Independence Day this weekend, let us remember that we have yet to achieve energy independence from dirty and harmful fossil fuels.
April 20, 2010 - BP's Deepwater Horizon exploratory oil drilling platform explodes in the Gulf of Mexico. Eleven workers are missing and presumably dead. Seven are critically injured.
April 24, 2010 - Reversing previous statements that claimed no oil was leaking from the wellhead, the US Coast Guard estimates that BP's well is spilling 1,000 barrels of oil each day into the Gulf of Mexico.
May 3, 2010 - The U.S. Coast Guard, working in partnership with BP PLC, local residents, and other federal agencies, conducted the "in situ burn" to aid in preventing the spread of oil.
May 9, 2010 - The oil spill continues to spread across the Gulf of Mexico. NASA releases photos that allow the public to see just how far the oil has caused havoc on the Gulf.
May 6, 2010 - Oil begins washing ashore on the Chandeleur Islands off the Louisiana coast, a series of islands that are part of the Breton National Wildlife Refuge. Greenpeace questions what it will take for America to move beyond the petroleum that is poisoning our ecosystem.
May 20, 2010 - After one month of oil spewing into the Gulf at a rate somewhere between 5,000 and 100,000 barrels a day, approximately 655,000 gallons of toxic dispersant has been deployed - 600,000 on the surface and 55,000 subsea.
May 24, 2010 - Greenpeace activists use oil to paint "Arctic Next?" on a ship docked in the Gulf of Mexico, which was scheduled to take a deep water oil rig to Arctic waters to start drilling. The activists joined a large coalition demanding that Interior Secretary Ken Salazar reinstate the moratorium on offshore oil drilling in the Arctic. Days later, Secretary Salazar announced a temporary continuation of the moratorium.
May 29, 2010 - BP announces that the "Top Kill" maneuver to plug the well has failed. BP estimates that the cost of the disaster is now at $930 million.
June 1, 2010 - As the oil spreads across the Gulf, wildlife become visibly affected. Here a group of baby brown pelicans, completely covered in oil, wait in a holding pen to be treated as part of the cleaning process at the Fort Jackson International Bird Rescue Research Center in Buras, Louisiana.
June 7, 2010 - While more than a month has passed since the spill and little progress has been made, Americans become increasingly impatient with BP. This picture features a front yard in Grand Isle, Louisiana planted with crosses with the names some of the marine life, popular seafood dishes and recreational activities that are being lost due oil leaking from the Deepwater Horizon wellhead.
June 14, 2010 - President Obama addresses the nation regarding the Oil Spill from the Oval Office. The President urges action on clean energy legislation, saying, "the most painful and powerful reminder yet that the time to embrace a clean energy future is now."
June 22, 2010 - Judge Martin L.C. Feldman halted President Obama's deep-water oil drilling moratorium. Despite the fact that as much as 60,000 barrels of oil continue to pour into the Gulf of Mexico every day, the judge called the moratorium "arbitrary and capricious."
June 26, 2010 - Concerned citizens joined hands in 860 different locations worldwide to protest offshore drilling and advocate responsible energy alternatives. Eleven weeks after the Deepwater Horizon explosion we are still asking, what will be our energy future? This is our moment to switch the future of our country from one reliant on fossil fuels to one powered by safe, renewable energy. If this spill has not revealed the high cost of fossil fuels and caused us to demand change, what will it take?
I visited Louisiana on May 20 to see the devastation first hand. Here I am knee deep in oil sludge from the Deepwater Horizon wellhead along the break water in Southpass where the Mississippi River meets the Gulf of Mexico. As we celebrate our country this weekend we must also celebrate an energy future that will not cause this kind of destruction to our planet and its people.

- " Wonderful little spot in the heart of Philadelphia. Super-friendly staff, convenient location, considering that we were there for the Theater of the Living Arts, it was a short walk, and nothing more. Also...refrigerator magnets...enough said. If you're planning on staying in Philly, and are looking for a hip little place to stay, I highly recommend staying here. "

- " This was my first stay and a Hostel, and I am so very glad I stayed here. This was truly a life changing experience for me as I interacted with people from all over the world. They do a daily happy hour and pub crawl to help people interact. All the staff were very helpful in giving suggestions and things to do and how to get places. Location could not have been any better as you are in the heart of everything but the area itself is very quiet. "

It was a nice experience having a home base so close to all of the sites we wanted to see. In the evenings they folks there included us in activities inside and outside the hostel. I enjoyed running out and meeting folks from the second hostel and doing karaoke. They did a lot to make sure out stay was wonderful. Send them my thanks :) "

November 25, 2015
It was a big day Wednesday for the city of Bryan.
Texas A&M and city officials broke ground on the new health science center located on Highway 47 in west Bryan.
The new state of the art campus will house health academic programs and administration that is currently located throughout Bryan and College Station.
"They've always had A&M and we didn't," Bryan Mayor Mark Conlee said. "Now we both have A&M and we're excited about that."
Bryan officials hope the $130 million facility puts the city on the map.
"I think Bryan has a lot to be proud of," Royce Hickman with the Bryan and College Station Chamber of Commerce said.
The campus will help with development of Bryan's west side and bring in an estimated $1 billion in two years, but in actuality the campus is right on the edge of College Station, making it beneficial for both cities.
"Having an academic health center here will allow us to attract specialties and depth of specialties that we perhaps haven't had," Dr. Nancy Dickey, the President of the A&M Health Science Center said. "It allows us to bring facilities, including state of the art research."
120 students are expected to attend the college of medicine a year, the new college of nursing will have about 60 students. Plus, research students, faculty and staff will make up a booming campus.
For area residents it means better healthcare, closer to home.
"Even your family doctors will be associated with them and he will be learning all the new things and so you won't have to travel anywhere to get world class healthcare," Conlee said. "It will be right here in Bryan."
"Sometimes today if medicine doesn't have the right answer and you need a research project you may have to drive to Houston or Dallas to get that," Dickey said. "That should eventually occur right on this campus."
Construction is expected to start by May and classes are expected to begin in July 2010.
The campus is being built on land that was donated by the city.
The new Texas A&M Health Science Center is expected to attract related industries to Bryan, such as research/development, assisted-living and biomedical-related retail.

5.0 stars 49 totalReview Andrea Robertson
Posted by a client
Andy is beyond the best Lawyer that a person could have when unfortunate events happen in your life. My case was very messy and Andy stepped up with her compassion, care and honesty through very trying times. Andy provided the best advice and worked above and beyond to prove that I was not the person that the system was stating. If I had one call to make to a Lawyer I would defiantly call Andy for help.
Posted by a client
In October 2014 I was arrested for a DUI which also involved a collision with a parked car. I found Andy on this website and she was able to immediately meet with me and represent me in court the next day, on a Saturday no less. She thoroughly explained all the steps required to get the best possible outcome, including action items for me to do. Never did I feel like I didn't know what was going to happen next, and I was never surprised at any of the legal processes. I appreciated the upfront pricing of her fees, it was helpful in this stressful situation not having to worry what the bill would be at the end. The resources she recommends for required services and evaluations are excellent. Her office communicates brilliantly. She's smart and hard working! She diligently looked at my case from every possible angle, keeping me well informed at every step. She was able to reduce my DUI charge to Reckless Driving, which I never dreamed was possible. From start to finish she made an extremely embarrassing and horrible time of my life more bearable. She's kind and non-judgmental. There isn't a better attorney in Seattle, and I recommend her whole heartedly.

Andy represented me following a 4th of July incident involving the planned target shooting of pistols with my friends at a piece of wood on a private and secluded beach. Cutting to the chase, the police arrived, handcuffed us, and released us mentioning we would soon be receiving a summons to appear in court. A very sobering experience as none of us would have ever dreamed this could ever happen in our lifetimes. So, in searching out a lawyer Andy was recommended by another attorney. Andy was through, caring and compassionate. I was having a very difficult time getting through this---she mentioned one thing that sustained me. She said, "you will get through this and come out the other side." I kept telling myself that "these things happen to other people, not a finance guy who plays in an orchestra and was a regular church goer." The event caused me to question the element most dear to me---my character. Andy helped me though that as well and was a lantern of hope at lowest point in my life. In the end, my case was dismissed and I did not even need to go to court on the final day---but did so anyway to support my 2 other friends. On all levels, I cannot recommend her enough---engaged in the case, supportative, exceptionally smart and caring!! I wish her all the best in her career.

I could not recommend Andy more! I was extremely impressed with not only her extensive knowledge of the law and presence in the courtroom, but also her empathy and understanding of my situation. I always felt well informed and there were never any significant surprises that Andy did not already anticipate. Her creativity and ability to adapt on the fly was amazing, and I have no doubt that I would not have gotten the favorable outcome I did without her expert representation. Her work ethic and preparation speak for themselves, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to any of my colleagues, friends or family. Whatever your legal needs are, do yourself a favor and hire Andy to represent you.
Posted by Kyle
I was arrested for a DUI in early 2013 and lost my CDL and was facing losing my job. I contacted Andrea Robertson and met with her promptly. Immediately I was impressed by her compassion to my case and she was more than informative about what I was facing legally and what my actions should be during this time. Never once was I unsure about what the next step should be and I never felt surprised by any legal action taken. She advised me of the proper steps to take and what the court would see as favorable. My case was dropped to a wreckless driving from a DUI. I had a high BAC and plenty of evidence against me; she worked diligently on my behalf every step of the way to fight for my case. From the bottom of my heart I am thankful for the representation of Andrea Robertson and staff on my behalf! I strongly recommend Andrea Robertson to represent YOU as a client!! Thank you so much Andrea!!
Posted by a Criminal Defense client
Very knowledgeable lawyer with the big heart. Andy is not the lawyer that just wants to get hired and extract your money (like so many lawyers do) - she predicted everything that happened and gave me really good advice.
Thanks Andy!
Posted by Dan
I would highly recommend Andy Robertson as a DUI defense attorney. Without having much experience with attorneys, I expected her to be merely someone who would represent me in the courtroom. However, I couldn't have been more wrong. She was empathetic, understanding, and I really felt she was an advocate for me. In addition to those characteristics, I found Andy to be professional, thorough, and knowledgeable about the legal process and my rights. She was great at breaking down the legal jargon to something more understandable and really seemed to know the political nuances that come with each judge. Choosing Andy will provide some peace of mind to you during a likely stressful time.
Posted by BAC24
If we had a choice to pick infinity number of stars, I would give Andy that on this rating. My case was a very tough one. Charged with DUI with an accident involved , BAC was 0.24! I don't want to go into too much detail, but my case ended with unbelievable results. I was actually referred by a family member who hired her in the past. Andy also brought her amazing outcome. Everyone around her couldn't believe how good it was. Same for me. If only one case had great results, I might say it was luck but, WOW! She is extremely professional, prompt, responsible, SWEET (can't find this in alot of conceited lawyers), and any word out there to decribe an amazing person! She's so hard working and it shows every way. When I'm in the court room I look at other lawyers and I feel bad for the defendents. I'm not sure, but I think she rehearses before she comes to court because she talks in front of the judge as if she practiced a million times. She is THAT PREPARED!!!! If you are in need of defense lawyer and is in DEEP trouble, stop panicking and call ANDY. She will take care of you and at the end of the day you will be so Greatful you hired Andy!
Posted by a DUI & DWI client
I was referred to Andy by a professional contact who held her in high regard and after my case, I would refer her to anyone in a heartbeat. Throughout my case, Andy was always available (even replying to emails at three in the morning) and was always willing to dedicate her time to help me with any problems I encountered. She was very helpful to me throughout the trial process, making sure I was in the loop any time there was a change in my case. She always checked in with me before any court dates to make sure I was prepared. During our time in court she demonstrated her comprehensive knowledge of the law and always made sure I knew what was going on. At trial, she was professional and respectful to the judge and was able to cite cases whenever necessary and applicable. We ended up getting a result at our trial that was favorable as a result of her extensive knowledge and savvy. I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs an experienced attorney who will make sure you are well prepared for anything in your case.
Posted by a DUI & DWI client
Andy was an unexpected light during a time when I needed it most. She was supportive, knowledgable and willing to go to make the extra effort to look at my case from all angles. She is a sincere listener and an intense fighter. You definitely want her on your side. I could not have asked for a better experience working with Andy.

Re: Star Trek: The Next Generation Blu-ray Audio Issues
FWIW, Tesco in the UK just shipped me a free complete replacement set today out of the blue. I emailed them about the issue about a month ago and got a standard "If your item is defective please send it in and we will issue a replacement" email so I just didn't bother and expected nothing. Lo and behold, this morning I woke up to a parcel through the mailbox with a complete set (with the red delta on the spine) for free!
So, Tesco in the UK are also honoring the replacement scheme.

McManus takes over as recycling coordinator
McManus takes over as recycling coordinator
SMITHFIELD - The town's new recycling coordinator is Maureen McManus, a former employee of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection and a native of Lincoln.
McManus, a graduate of Northeastern and Antioch Universities, and a 2002 graduate of Lincoln High School, took over her part-time position here March 1.
She succeeds Lori Gagnon, who resigned in January after holding the job since 2010.
McManus said her immediate goals are to increase the town's recycling tonnage and to help with the new automatic refuse pickup system that Smithfield launched in October.
McManus, 30, said one of the attractions of the local job was the opportunity it gave her to return to Rhode Island.
In a sure sign of impending spring, McManus announced that yard waste pickups will resume April 7, weekly at first on the usual routes and every other week after May 31 until resuming weekly for fall cleanups Nov. 3.
McManus announced several impending events, including the annual Earth Day community cleanup from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 19.
Volunteers will meet at the Leo Bouchard Conservation Center, 5 Waterview Dr. (off Pleasant View Avenue behind the police station), where they will be issued gloves, bags, and water bottles before fanning out to cleanup locations around town.
A collection of electronics castoffs will take place at the Public Works garage, 3 Spragueville Rd., off Pleasant View Avenue, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on April 25.
Acceptable items include small appliances, televisions, cell phones and computer-related material.
The event is held in cooperation with Goodwill Industries of Rhode Island, a nonprofit charity that refurbishes the used electronics.
Document shredding will be offered at the garage from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on April 26, with residents permitted a maximum of four boxfuls of paper.
On May 17 the department will accept tires, without rims, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The tires will eventually be recycled into other products.

The Magazine
The Unpersuasive Orator
Obama may sound good, but he doesn't close the sale.
Jun 8, 2009, Vol. 14, No. 36 • By FRED BARNES
The stimulus lost 10 points in public approval after it was enacted last winter. Only 34 percent of Americans in a Rasmussen survey last March felt it would help the economy. That sentiment is roughly unchanged today.
And there's a stimulus-related problem: fear of excessive government spending. Obama says he's pursuing "fiscal responsibility." But in a Gallup poll, 55 percent said his proposals call for "too much spending." And 53 percent now believe spending hikes are hurting the economy, up from 48 percent in February, according to a Rasmussen poll last week.
Two other findings by Rasmussen underscore the concern over Obama's spending plans. Seventy-four percent now prefer fewer government services and lower taxes. And 77 percent believe the unwillingness of politicians to control spending is a bigger problem than the public's unwillingness to pay higher taxes.
Obama shouldn't be blamed for the unpopularity of policies he inherited on bank bailouts and financial aid to General Motors and Chrysler. But it's noteworthy that while continuing the bailouts, he's been singularly unsuccessful in softening public opposition. In a Rasmussen survey, 60 percent disapproved of aid to auto companies and 59 percent to bailing out banks.
There's an inescapable conclusion in all this: Obama's reputation as a convincing speaker is overrated. He may sound like an effective salesman, but the only product Americans are buying is Obama himself. And that sale isn't yet final.
Fred Barnes is executive editor of THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

beer, hot-tub, wife, bike.. pick three... oh and the trails are closed.
Sure.. tune ups are a scam to people that know how to do one.. but most people can't. That $45 is for knowledge, not time.
Speaking of knowledge.. You only lube your chain once a month.. but...
I recently went riding with 2 others, one guy on a 24" wheeled bike (he's short), me on a 26" and another on a 29" (he's tall). We rode each others bikes a little.. none of us fealt comfortable on...
I've seen and heard of a lot of shimano freehub failures.. its not uncommon. In fact the only weaker freehub is a mavic.
don't blame the bike.
And last time I drove through grand rapids, mi. it was flat a pancake.
I have an Ibis mojo sl and a huffy.. trying to decide which I'll ride today.
you need an 8/9 speed shimano freehub.. like this:
freehubs from shimano are readily available, cheap, and easy to install.
to beat lance armstrong in a drinking competition.. he doesn't stand a chance drinking that light beer.
push the piston back in the caliper..
Pro tip? Don't pros just hand their bike to a rookie mechanic so he can hold it?
that website is really lame.. spammer.
I don't remember any brake pads made before the mid '90's or so being any good..
and btw.. you will also need cable stops to go to cantis.
Those bearings are available at any bearing supplier. You don't have to wait 2 weeks to get a set of bearings.
Its pretty normal for kids and teenagers to idolize a sports star or celebrity.. but its just gay, as already mentioned, for a grown man to do it..
What a terrible pic of lance btw.. he looks all...
wrong.. the sealed bearings in any decent hub will outlast shimano bearings by at least 10x.
And btw.. its just as easy to replace sealed bearings as service cup and cone bearings, if not easier.
Won't that cloud of zen also grow a soul patch on my chin? no thank you.
sweet.. so if I loose the gears and suspension fork, and maybe a cookie or two.. my bike will weight just under 19lbs.. yes!! awesome!!
I got over it..
my new bike.. sorry its a road bike.
This was actually the point I was attempting to make. I failed.
Robot is claiming to be 7lbs lighter because he has a rigid ss.. I think thats what he was claiming. But that isn't really the...
Are you talking about replaceable hangers? Because that frame definitely had a hanger that was part of the dropout.
Not bad.. but only about 3.75lbs lighter than my 27spd, full suspension bike.
robot.. how much does your bike weigh?
