Doctor's Ambulance's Swift Response Saves Man in Cardiac Arrest
Orange County's top emergency medical transportation group Doctor's Ambulance demonstrates lightning fast response time and saves another life
At the flash of a code-2 call, Doctor's Ambulance dispatched Chad Duncan and Andy Savage, professionally trained and certified EMTs, to Rancho Santa Margarita. Only 30 seconds after dispatch, they were on full alert and responded immediately to the incident. Luckily, the Doctor's Ambulance team was very close to the scene.
At the scene of the incident, family members anxiously waiting outside frantically waved them in, but Chad and Andy remained calm as they gathered their gear and moved upstairs to help the man. The family had applied CPR, but the Doctor's Ambulance team wasted no time taking over and hooked the man up to an automated external defibrillator to administered shock. Seconds later, the man's pulse resumed to a regular rhythm. Within minutes, the paramedics arrived on the scene.
"We were just doing our job, what we're trained to do," explained Andy. "Thanks to some great teamwork with Chad, everything turned out really well. This is why I love my job—helping people in this way is so fulfilling."
Without Doctor's Ambulance and their team of expert EMTs, help might have arrived too late, and the man very likely would have lost his life.
"We're so proud of the speed and ability that Andy and Chad used to save this man," comments Dave Sanford, Business Development Director of Doctor's Ambulance. "They absolutely represent what Doctor's Ambulance is all about. It's employees like Andy and Chad that help us give the community the most efficient ambulance response and allow us to be valuable partners to our OCFA Paramedics."
Doctor's Ambulance has served the emergency medical transport needs of communities throughout Orange County since 1974, proudly serving the citizens of Aliso Viejo, Dana Point, Laguna Beach, Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Woods, Lake Forest, Irvine, Rancho Santa Margarita, San Juan Capistrano and Tustin as their 9-1-1 transportation provider. Their primary response area encompasses over 150 square miles and over 750,000 residents, and they regularly transport over 2,500 patients a month to six local hospital emergency rooms and three Regional Trauma Centers. Their fleet includes 29 Ambulances, one Disaster Response unit, two Supervisor units and one Incident Support unit.

Recent years have seen constant innovations and changes in hairdressing products, techniques and styles, while the number of hairdressing businesses has grown steadily.
The atomisation of hairdressing into self-employment and micro-enterprises has put competitive pressure on traditional small hairdressing businesses that employ workers. Chains and franchise systems have also increased their market share.

Tropical nursing is a nursing specialty predominantly undertaken in tropical and subtropical regions. These regions generally have underdeveloped health services and a lack of essential healthcare staff, including registered nurses and midwives.
Diploma in Tropical Nursing – London[edit]
Registered nurses and midwives can undertake the 19 week (P/T) Diploma in Tropical Nursing at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. This course is intended for nurses and midwives who have travelled or worked in developing countries, or who hope to do so.[1]
Diploma in Tropical Nursing – Liverpool[edit]
The Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine runs the Diploma in Tropical Nursing as a three-week intensive programme. It is designed for nurses and midwives who intend to work in developing countries. The course will provide a wide knowledge base, incorporating laboratory work, clinical aspects of infectious diseases, child health, sexual health, neglected tropical diseases, non-communicable diseases as well as professional topics such as leading change, public health, governance and ethics.
This diploma course is available to registered nurses and midwives. It is recommended that you have a minimum of two years post-qualification experience.[2]
Book on tropical nursing[edit]
A reliable source of information is Nursing and Midwifery – A Practical Approach by Sally Huband, Pam Hamiltin-Brown and Gillian Barber. The book focuses on Nursing and Midwifery in Africa. It is published by Macmillan Publishers Ltd but distributed by Teaching Aids at Low Cost.[3]
Book on tropical diseases[edit]
Manson's Tropical Diseases (21st Ed) has achieved a significant change in direction and the preface states that it will be of immense value to physicians, scientists, nurses and paramedical personnel worldwide. The 22nd edition of the book is edited by Gordon C. Cook and Alimuddin Zumla and was published by W.B. Saunders, Elsevier in December 2008.

Kotak — Fraud selling wrong product
3 Reviews
PrPritamJain on Mar 4, 2012
Kotak is eating up my hardly earned Money…..
Kotak has cheated me by putting me different plan (Kotak Securities - Prepaid Plan) from the plan which has been explained to me on phone by Mr. Ajay Thakur (From Marketing Team).
Every six month nearly 4000 to 6000 is being getting deducted. And for this I am taking a regular follow up with the team from last two years and escalated the issue 2-3 times. But I am not getting any proper response from the kotak. I have tried visit branch personally, but it was also of no use. There was no one dedicated to handle a customer (There is no option at kotak for the customer to have a face – to – face interaction).
On top of that Kotak Mahindra Bank is not allowing me to close my account which is linked to the security account. And Kotak Mahindra Bank is also deducting certain amount (Rs.800 to 900 quarterly) for QAB.
I am fed up with kotak as I have wasted abundant time and money. I have tried many times to discontinue the relationship. But they are not allowing me to do so.
Please do the needful…..

- Robert Duvall in Get Low
To compete with states with booming film programs such as Louisiana and Michigan, Georgia passed a tax incentive as part of House Bill 539 in 2005 but began wooing Hollywood in earnest by raising the percentages in 2008. Currently, the state offers filmmakers a 20 percent base tax credit, plus an additional 10 percent if they put the Georgia logo on the end roll credits.
Most states offer such soft money incentives, but those romantic comedies or monstrous TV series won't come for the tax breaks alone. "Some states don't really have the infrastructure to support film production," says Genier. "You end up bringing half your crew into the state. Is there a grip? A medic? Craft services? The tax incentive dwindles."
Fortunately, Georgia has enough experienced crew in place thanks to a modest but lively filmmaking tradition that spans a truckload of Burt Reynolds movies, "The Dukes of Hazzard," "In the Heat of the Night," Driving Miss Daisy, Fried Green Tomatoes and Zombieland. The Georgia Film Office's newly formed designation of "Camera Ready Communities," spanning 16 counties from around the state, identifies the places willing and able to host an influx of Heigls and Duhamels.
Out-of-town filmmakers like Georgia's local crew base for several reasons. Get Low director Aaron Schneider praised not just the quantity of workers, but positive attitudes beyond cashing a paycheck. "The real test of a filmmaker, from cameraman to production designer, is the drive to make a great movie, even though we didn't have much money to offer."
And where locals may take for granted Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport or the Georgia scenery outside the perimeter, filmmakers see cost-saving convenience. They save money by booking direct flights for their talent and, once they arrive, whisking them to any number of diverse locations: mountains, farms, beaches, quaint little towns and skyscraping cities. What's more, Atlanta's habit of tearing down its historic architecture may also have an unexpected benefit, allowing the city to more easily play the part of Anytown, U.S.A.
Thomas praises the ability of production designers to make Atlanta pass for elsewhere. "It's staggering what they can do. They can look at a house and say, 'Baltimore would never have that window,' or 'It would never be sitting that close to the street.' They can give 10 reasons why one house will work and one why the house won't work," she says.
With productions like Fast Five, the fifth of the Fast and the Furious car-chase movies, Atlanta can even pass for Rio de Janeiro. Sort of. "It's not like they're dragging palm trees through the city," Thomas points out. "They shot a lot in Puerto Rico. Here they're using interiors and gritty urban exteriors."
- Courtesy Lionsgate
- Tyler Perry's For Colored Girls
Another reason Hollywood appreciates filming in remote locations is that Los Angelenos are soooo over it. "Los Angeles has so many films that eventually people get tired of the filming and focus on the inconvenience rather than the benefit," Genier says. "Places that haven't had filmmaking day in and day out, their natural hospitality comes out."
Genier savors the times he's been filming on blazing summer days and a neighbor has offered cookies or asked, "Would you like some ice tea?"
He acknowledges that Georgia doesn't have everything, including specialty equipment like cranes and balloon lights, so he has to factor in extra time to book them. Georgia also needs more soundstages. The state made strides in that direction earlier this year when EUE/Screen Gems Studios, which operates studios and production facilities in New York City and Wilmington, N.C., began expanding and refurbishing soundstages at Lakewood Fairgrounds.
The existing sets at Lakewood already have hosted the likes of For Colored Girls and BET's "The Game." The Screen Gems expansion includes construction of a new 37,500-foot soundstage, expected to be completed in spring 2011, which should improve Atlanta's film capacity considerably. The company signed a 50-year lease on the property — a vote of confidence in Atlanta's long-term film industry. Atlanta will be ready for, say, The Fast and the Furious 15 or Driving Miss Daisy in a Hovercar.
Just because lots of films are currently being made in Georgia doesn't mean Georgians are making lots of films. Atlanta's influx in major movie and TV production isn't necessarily a sign that the local, grassroots film community is thriving.
Atlanta's never sustained a thriving indie film scene like Austin, Texas, home to such renowned native filmmakers as critics' darling Richard Linklater and cult director Robert Rodriguez. Charles Judson, communications director of the Atlanta Film Festival, finds the current climate particularly sparse.

I tried this tonight and really liked how cool and refreshing it felt on my skin. I'm going to use it a few more times to see if it actually improves the quality of my skin before leaving number of stars.
Soft & smooth is how my skin feels now, 30 minutes after I did this one. I made one change, I used sour cream in place of the whole milk... since I had none. I love your recipes! I live in Orlando and I could reccommend lots of better restaurants here for a vegetarian.
This left my skin feeling nice. I wouldn't do it again, though, because I hated how it felt on my face!

Whiskey Review: Straight Edge American Whiskey
A while back I was fortunate enough to score a bottle of Dave Phinney's "Slaughterhouse" Whiskey. Dave Phinney as you may or may not know is the famed vintner who created "The Prisoner" an Über California wine blend. He then sold the company and now makes acclaimed wines from virtually all the major wine producing countries in the world under his Orin Swift label. Last year he decided to turn his taste for wine into sourced whiskeys. Straight Edge was Dave's first leap into the whiskey world and his skill in crafting wine doesn't miss a beat when putting together these whiskeys. Straight Edge is hard to come by and I was lucky to grab a bottle for this review.
Straight Edge much like all of Phinney's creations catches the eye with creative labeling. Straight Edge as the name implies sports an old style straight edge razor. The red background in the lettering matches the color of the whiskey itself. In the bottle the whiskey has an attractive almost sherry color to it. Straight Edge is a blend of 5, 7 and 8 year old Bourbon from Kentucky and Tennessee. It's finished at Phinney's facility in Napa family using Mercury Head Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. Mercury Head is Orin Swift's high end expensive Cabernet. I have a bottle of the '01 Mercury Head and you can see in the picture below the Whiskey and the wine it was barrel finished in.
Here is my review:
Spirit details: Proof 84
Price: $50
Origin: USA
Description: Sherry color in bottle, straight razor on label.
Nose: The nose screams vanilla and wood.
Palate: Upfront lots of vanilla, butterscotch and toasty oak. Midway spice with orange and honey that coats the mouth.
Finish: Real toasty on the finish with vanilla, caramel and a wonderful touch of rye that rounds out the profile.
Conclusion: An extremely well balanced whiskey. While I don't feel the body was as "weighty" as the Slaughterhouse this whiskey was more nuanced in it's primary flavors. I attribute this to the aging in Cabernet barrels rather than Bordeaux barrels with Slaughterhouse. Orin Swift Cellars has diversified their profile with both American Whiskeys. Straight Edge delivers sharp flavors of vanilla, oak and spice which is what a quality American Whiskey is all about. If you can find a bottle I would grab it as I wish I had more myself. Below is a link to my review of Slaughterhouse if you'd like to compared the two. Enjoy!
Wine Review: The 50 by 50 Pinot Noir
This evening I was fortunate enough to try the 50 by 50 Pinot Noir. The story behind this wine is unique in that it's a creation of Gerald Casale founding member of the prolific band DEVO. During the late 70's and early 80's Gerald and the band began to tour the world extensively. When given the opportunity to visit vineyards in Italy, France, Spain and other regions Gerald jumped at the chance to learn and discover the pleasures of wine. As the story goes his love specifically for Pinot Noir came later on around 1990. Having been fortunate enough to taste the legendary Domaine de la Romanée Conti with friends the love affair began. Years later Gerlad began creating the 50 by 50 Pinot Noir in Sonoma County. The name derives itself from the blending of a 50/50 blend of two Pinot Noir clones; the Pommard and the 667 Dijon clone. Produced in a Burgundian style this Pinot Noir is a treat for the senses. Below are my notes and rating. Enjoy!
Appearance: Beautiful light brick color.
Nose: Some bright cherry and red fruits with a bit of cinnamon and spice.
Taste: This wine starts off with upfront flavors of cherry a bit of ripe strawberry and cola. Mid palate shows almost coffee like notes with spice and cherry intermingling. The finish smacks of red berries, fresh sage and earth which linger on and on. With some decanting this wine opens up to reveal tart cherry, all spice and a pronounced finish of earth and coffee. Stylistically this Point has the ripe red fruit flavors of a Californian Pinot Noir along with the richness and elegant finish a good Burgundy possesses. This wine is harmonious and for the price of around $34 a very good value for a wonderful pinot Noir.
Rating : 94 points non-blind.
Conclusion: Gerald's passion for wine is evident as demonstrated by his excellent Pinot Noir. Make no mistake this is not a vanity project from a celebrity but an homage to true fans of the grape with all the care and attention clearly shown here. This is a wine I recommend picking up before it sells out!

Cigar Review: Hispaniola Tres Carabelas
This past week I was luckily enough to meet with the creators of the Hispaniola brand of cigars. Hugo F. Melo, a modest gentleman described with passion his families long history in the Dominican Republic working tobaccos. After generations of distributing aged product for other cigar companies Hugo felt it was time to venture out with his own brand that is Hispaniola cigars. Recently FTNYC had reviewed Hispaniola's El Trabuco 1844 which received high praise from our staff. Today I smoked their Tres Carabelas cigar and my findings did not disappoint. Enjoy.
Blend specifics:
Wrapper: Havano Oscuro Vuelta Arriba
Binder: Dominican
Filler: Dominican
Size Robusto- 5″ x 55
Appearance & Construction:
The wrapper of this cigar had a nice oily sheen and shows the classic dark color of a Havana Oscuro wrapper. The cigar had some slight veins and a few soft spots to the touch however the foot showed some nicely packed tobaccos. This was extremely well rolled and visually appealing.
Taste & Smoking Characteristics:
The dry draw showed wonderful coffee and wood notes with a salty finish. Upon lighting the cigar offered some dark espresso, oak and leather flavors. The finish was salty which is something I really enjoy in a fine smoke. Midway a bit of spice kicked intermingling with espresso and a touch of graham cracker. The leather seemed to pick up a bit with the salty finish balancing it out. The final third delivered espresso character at its fullest with leather in the background. A well balanced cigar from begin to end.
The breadth of knowledge from the good people at Hispaniola shows in their Tres Carabelas blend. The draw was superb and the robusto size is a perfect showcase for the tobaccos in this cigar. Tres Carabelas gives a medium to full bodied smoking experience and can easily be appreciated after a fine meal. For those who want an elegant experience in cigar smoking Tres Carabelas is a cigar you need to get your hands on.
EXCLUSIVE: Rating Pappy Van Winkle's: A vertical tasting. Which made #1?
During one of our cold and dreary winters here in New York I invited some close friends to my house for a grueling task. I wasn't asking them to move furniture or paint rooms which are the archetypal favors you may rope a friend into. No, this was a "chore" most mates would jump at the chance to aid in. The call I placed was to ask if they would assist me in rating a vertical of Pappy Van Winkle 15, 20, and 23yr. old bourbon. Needless to say both friends didn't seem to mind lending a hand or their taste buds. However in order to gather sufficient and comprehensive results I had to put a few key methods into place.
First I chose these two friends for particular reasons. Although I had many people offer to "help" out with my study I felt I needed some specific tasters. One of them has tasted many a fine bourbon yet still considers his tasting acumen as" budding" and continuing to develop. Also this individual doesn't covet any booze or cigar and price and/or hype never sways him. I can always count on him for an honest assessment and he is one friend who even keeps me grounded at times. The other person has never tried bourbon but is a big fan of wine with a developing palate enhanced by his extensive Sommelier certification coursework. He is an asset to the study as he has the ability to recognize taste but no preconceived notions on what bourbon should be.
The Setup:
Second we had to do this study blind. In order to score without bias we needed to NOT be aware of what we were drinking. Each bourbon was covered up by someone not participating in the study and each bottle labeled simply 1, 2 & 3. We were poured each one in number order and utilized the UC Davis College Wine Score Card which applies to spirits as well. This card has a point system broken up into 3 categories with a scoring system for each category. The categories were Appearance, Odor, and Taste. Each category was noted and then given a score. The scores were then added up for a final scoring on that particular spirit. The highest total score that can be achieved is 25 points on the UC Davis College Wine Score Card respectively. The results and ratings below are listed highest to lowest scored with tasting notes as well as the year of the bourbon. The results were quite surprising. Enjoy!
1. Pappy Van Winkle 20yr. Old Bourbon- 20 Points. We found that this bourbon was the sweet spot in terms of the time Pappy should be aged in barrel. The color was a wonderful golden amber with a honeyed hue and a touch of rose'. The first nose gave off alcohol aromas some vanilla and slight spice. Initial tastings had vanilla, baking spice and oak with medium intensity. The mid palate was smooth and refined with oak vanilla and earthy characteristics. The finish was long, rich and continued with an interplay of spices, toasted oak and vanilla. An extremely balanced bourbon with a length that beats many I've tasted.
2. Pappy Van Winkle 15yr. Old Bourbon- 18 Points. The color in the glass was that of caramel and toasted almond. Nosing gave off aromas of cinnamon, citrus and spice. This bourbon had a weighty mouth feel with earth and vanilla dominating. Midway caramel, butterscotch and a bit of toasted oak came through. Some "bourbon heat" kicked in for a moment before finishing with a long caramel/toffee aftertaste. This was a medium intensity bourbon and we all felt it was a fine sipping spirit.
3. Pappy Van Winkle 23yr. Old Bourbon- 17 Points. The color on this bourbon was medium with an amber hue. There was a more intense burn on the nose with some vanilla coming through on the second impression. There wasn't much more on the front of this offering. First sip yielded baking spice, wood and coconut. Midway gave a lot of earthiness along with baking spices and some more vanilla and caramel. There was a lot of heat present and the finish took on a long earthy and spicy character. This bourbon came on with intense spice, heat and wood no doubt due to its aging however we did not feel the extended time benefited it.
The lineup and copious note taking
So after a long hard afternoon which trickled into evening we concluded our findings. Having drunk these bourbons for years I wasn't surprised to see the 20 yr. old the best in taste, flavor and finish as it has always been my personal favorite. We were all surprised to find that the 23yr. old scored the lowest in our tasting. This wasn't a bad bourbon at all in fact it is of extremely high quality. The additional aging however seemed to overpower some flavors which seemingly hurt its scoring. What makes blind tastings so interesting is that you remove your preconceived notions and are forced to focus on the sight, smell and taste of the product alone. I would recommend getting some friends together and try a blind tasting. It can be done with any spirit and you may be surprised at what you THINK you like. I'm sure you won't have any trouble finding friends to lend a hand in this endeavor,I sure didn't.
5 Important Tips for Marketing Your Product on Instagram
To many small business owners, social media is an attractive but baffling marketing tool. They know social media could drive interest and sales, but might not know how to expand their strategy beyond just posting on common networks. Retail companies, especially those in the luxury and niche markets, can profit greatly from the smart use of image-based platforms like Instagram. But many small business owners are using Instagram in all the wrong ways: posting blurry or irrelevant photos, ignoring fans, or being too fearful to openly encourage sales. So the question becomes, "How do I sell items on Instagram?"
If you want to build a profitable Instagram presence for your small business, here are 5 basics you have to keep in mind:
1. Be an expert
No posting pictures of what you ate for breakfast or the cool cloud formation outside. Stick to taking creative pictures of your product, behind-the-scenes shots of production, or unique ways people are using your items. Enthusiasts and potential customers follow experts with focused, quality content.
2. Post frequently
There is an inverse relationship between the amount of time that elapses between your posts and the strength of your relationship with fans. Post at least once a day to keep your audience engaged.
3. Respond
Effective marketing and making sales requires relationships! If someone comments, be sure to comment back. Friendliness and personal connection, more than anything, is what will turn your fans into customers.
4. Initiate
Use relevant hash tags to find users who are interested in your niche (i.e. for a boutique fashion co., #fashion #dailylook #mensfashion #womensfashion are major – for cigars you'd look at #cigar #cigars #cigaraficionado, etc). Try to like at least 20-30 photos a day from a few of the relevant tags. Why? Each like drops a notification from your brand on a users' phone. Try it and watch your follower count grow much faster.
5. Make the ask
Some social media managers would tell you to stick to the "soft sell." This is bad advice. A hard ask can be effective and even flattering to a user, provided there is a pre-existing relationship. Once you have built a large, enaged audience and are getting between 50-200 likes per photo, start dropping selling language in every fourth or fifth photo. The key is to be creative! One highly successful strategy is to make product recommendations to your most engaged fans by using the @ mention function. Who wouldn't like a personalized recommendation from an expert?
Now let's make it concrete. Here are some examples of Instagram done right.
Drew Estate
These guys do a fantastic job creating a solid Instagram community that has very high interaction rates and actively asks to buy:
Ash Fine Cigars
Ash Fine Cigars is a cigar shop in Hoboken I did some consulting work with last year. We had a lot of success a) posting every day, and b) making recommendations to our customers.
Rogue Ales
Rogue Ales is based in Oregon (my home state) and has something of a cult following. Their attention to their community has created a very engaged audience that loves to fawn over their products.
The 5 basics outlined above work with any company that is selling an attractive product and can be used in industries from cigars and spirits to fashion and even auto.

IPCPR 2013 Social Media Rankings: Drew Estate, Rocky Patel, Alec Bradley Take Top Three
Everyone knows IPCPR is one of the largest cigar events of the year in the United States. Thousands of cigar brands, retailers, bloggers, and other enthusiasts descend to smoke and purchase the newest blends from the hottest brands. Any high-energy, well-publicized event like IPCPR presents a great opportunity for companies willing to leverage social media to get exposure to tens of thousands of cigar smokers on social media.
So who were the top performers at IPCPR this year? The results are below. But first a note: these results are not comprehensive. They do not cover all cigar brands at IPCPR (that would be impossible), nor do they cover all social media platforms. I limited my statistical analysis to the previous 7 days of tweeting activity on Twitter because its open environment allows me to get the most detailed information. Yes, it is one platform among many, but the stats sill tell a solid story. Nonetheless, I have also included a some anecdotal analysis because there were some brands who made some spectacular plays on other networks like Facebook (i.g. Alec Bradley sends first cigars into space). If you're wondering why I didn't include more brands (even big ones), it is because this kind of research takes a lot of work and I was looking for representative samples.
Rankings are based on total number of company mentions during the week of IPCPR.
The results
Drew Estate dominated social media this year, with Rocky Patel and Alec Bradley coming in second and third. We'll go into the how and why's of it in a minute. But quickly I should explain that the "Total company mentions" column on the right is not the sum of "hashtag mentions" and "ipcpr mentions" – it includes more tweets, like those that @ mention the company, use slang terms for the company, etc. Thus it is the most comprehensive metric, and the one which judged rankings.
How did Drew Estate do it?
Drew Estate crushed it this year for a few reasons:
- Drew Estate made a concerted effort to draw their customers into the IPCPR experience using an IPCPR hashtag.
- Drew Estate motivated their customers to participate in the hashtag by featuring posts on a company webpage designed specifically for IPCPR.
- Drew Estate posted across multiple platforms – Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, achieving a maximum reach across platform audiences. They were also smart in posting content across platforms (i.e. their Facebook page is full of their YouTube interviews).
- Company employees were active on social and responded/thanked users who submitted posts with #DEipcpr.
Drew Estate did a fantastic job and all cigar companies could learn a thing or two on how to engage customers and increase brand loyalty.
Honorable mention: Alec Bradley
Alec Bradley didn't have nearly as much social momentum during IPCPR 2013, but they deserve an honorable mention here for the sheer creativity of their marketing approach. While in Vegas, they made history by launching the first cigars into space. Yeah. The post had 11 shares, over a hundred likes, and a lot of comments. I estimate this post had a viral reach in the tens of thousands, and will be posted around the internet for a long time to come.
Way to go Alec Bradley!
What about Rocky Patel?
I'm a big fan of Rocky Patel cigars – great flavor, incredibly consistent construction, awesome pricing too. Their performance on social this year, however, wasn't so much the result of the company having a solid social media strategy. A cursory glance around their networks revealed that they didn't put a lot of effort into getting people involved this year, indicating they were riding on existing brand excitement.
Rocky Patel vs Alec Bradley
If you want to see what a bad approach to social media looks like, just take a look at the Rocky Patel Facebook page as compared to a brand like Alec Bradley. Here is the Rocky Patel Facebook page:
Note that there is no visual content, very little interaction from page fans, and it really ends up just being a feed for events. The page is visually unappealing and doesn't represent the brand well at all. It is, in short, really boring. Whoever is managing their page needs to correct course if they want to get any value from their Facebook page – right now it is a waste.
Now take a look at Alec Bradley's stream. They have roughly the same amount of page fans, but look how their rate of interaction is literally 50x that of Rocky Patel's page:
The lesson? Be creative, use visual content, and try to act like you care about your Facebook fans enough to give them good content!
Congratulations to Drew Estate and Alec Bradley for putting on a stellar performance with social media at this year's IPCPR!

"Social Media for Cigar Companies" Part IV: How To Make Sales on Instagram
In our last post, we looked at how to use Facebook to increase brand awareness and communicate with your fans and customers. In this post, we'll take an in-depth look at how to use Instagram to connect with current and potential customers and drive sales.
First, a few basics on Instagram that should shape your strategy. Instagram is unique in that it is entirely image based. This makes it extremely valuable for enticing other Instagram users to purchase your product. This also means that Instagram is not the platform you want to use to make basic announcements about your business, unless you have marketing images appropriate to Instagram.
So now let's talk about how to get your Instagram account set up!
We'll start our how-to with the most important tips you need to know to set up and, just as important, launch your Instagram presence. From there we'll look at a few tips for quickly building a large following of relevant users (i.e. potential customers). Then we'll look at the part you're excited about: how to make money on Instagram. Just remember: each step below is important.
It goes without saying that your username should ideally be the name of your company. This will help your customers and fans find you easily. Aside from that, follow these basic guidelines:
- Important: skip the "find friends" screens that will pop up immediately after creating your account. This comes later.
- Your "bio" section should include a brief description of your company, and if possible either your marketing slogan or the handles for your Twitter and other social accounts.
- Be sure to add your website to the "website" field.
- In your account settings, connect your Instagram account to your Twitter feed unless you plan on posting images separately on Twitter (better, but takes a lot more time).
- Upload at least eight or nine photos creative captions to your account. Please: make your photos good. Bad photos count against your brand, not for it.
Now that your profile is set up, it is time to launch. Go into your options menu and tap "find friends." From there, hit "Facebook friends." You'll be prompted to connect your Facebook account to you Instagram profile. Do it.
Now you'll see a screen with a list of all of your Facebook friends on Instagram. Hit the "Follow All" button. This will act as a notification for all of your friends on Instagram to check out your account, and since you've already posted content, they will likely hit the "Follow" button back!
But we can boost your initial following even more. Here are some ideas:
- Go back to the "find friends" screen, and add friends from your phone contact list. Hit the "follow all" button again.
- Announce on your other social networks that you have launched your Instagram presence. Be sure to include your best photo in the post so people have an immediate understanding of the value of your content.
- Use any company email lists to send an email blast to your current customers and contacts. If you go this route, be sure that your email is polished and professional. After all, if your email isn't visually appealing, why would anyone want to follow you on Instagram?
Immediately following your launch, you will notice a big bump in your follower count as your friends and fans connect with your account. This is good, but it is only the beginning!
Here are a few best practices to remember that will help you build your Instagram audience:
- Post at least once a day. Two or even three times if possible, while maintaining relevant content.
- Use hash tags. Hash tags group photos from different users under similar interests, and will help other users find you. A few common cigar related hashtags are: #cigar, #cigars, #cigaraficionado, #cigarsociety, #cigarian. There are many, many more.
- Like photos under hash tags like #cigars. Every time you like someone's photo, they get a notification. Many times, getting a like will pique a person's interest, and they will often follow you after visiting your profile. This is one of the fastest ways to grow a profile.
- Link your Instagram account to your Facebook and Twitter profiles. This will cross polinate your social media followings.
- If someone comments on one of your photos, RESPOND! The users who comment on your photos are the most likely to become your next loyal customers. Don't shut them out or they'll lose interest and go somewhere else.
If you've done this well, you should end up with something like this (another account I built):
Ok, so you've followed the steps above and you have yourself a solid Instagram account running. Now you might be wondering, "How do I sell my product on Instagram?" It's pretty easy and just takes a bit more work.
- Take badass pictures. Nothing is more attractive to a customer than a picture of your product on an exotic beach, on top of a skyscraper, with a famous celebrity, or in any other unique situation. If your pictures are blurry or just plain unenticing, don't expect anyone to want to purchase your product.
- Reach out to your commentors. After a week or two, you'll notice that other Instagram users are commenting on your photos. If users are interested enough to interact with you – they're probably interested enough or almost interested enough to buy your product. Start keeping a list of the individuals who comment on your photos. When you have a solid list of 10-15 names, start tagging them in your photos or mentioning them in the comments below your next shot. Here's a good example of how this works (see below).
- Recommend cigars to your Instagram followers. Imagine you have a personalized retail experience online, where a professional is reaching out to you and recommending a product. How likely are you to take the recommendation? Statistically, the answer is "very likely." Try posting a picture of a cigar, and recommending the cigar to a few of your followers using the @ mention.
- Post your crazy awesome deals. You must run sales at some point or another, right? Well, it's likely that one or all of your sales is worth a mention on social media. Next time you run a cigar sale, take a picture of the cigars that are on sale and drop a caption using non-salesy language. Avoid "x cigar is on sale today. hooray." and go with something like "Do you love the Fuente Opus X?! Well get your ass down to the shop because they're half off!" (admittedly, this would be a truly sick deal, but it's just an example).
Here's an example from a client I was managing on recommendations/tagging:
Keep in mind, these are only ways to get direct sales on Instagram (where someone says, "yes, I will buy that). Social is powerful, however, in that it leads to many indirect sales by heightening the exposure of your brand in general (more visibility, trust, yada yada).
So there you have it. An awesome guide on how to use Instagram to look badass, be badass, and sell lots of cigars (or anything else, honestly). Pretty simple right? The key here is to be creative and actually interact with your audience. After all, it's called social media for a reason!
In our next post, we'll look at strategies for using Google+ effectively and giving your company an exposure boost.

Arts Postcard from LA (Annotated Edition)
posted by August 9 at 10:02 AMon
For anyone who loves art, it has, in the past few years alone, become easy to love L.A. I happened to be down there last weekend, thinking about Andrea Zittel and the art of the West Coast, and I found plenty to consider.
L.A. owns sculpture. This was the entire point of the Thing show at the Hammer Museum at UCLA in 2005,
A Touching Moment (Tooting My Own Horn) (2005) by Nathan Mabry
but last weekend there were other sculptors lurking there, too. In Eden's Edge, Gary Garrels's show of 15 L.A. artists at the Hammer, I was stopped in my tracks by Anna Sew Hoy's fired ceramic hives, draped in jewelry, feathers, and other detritus ("feathers are everywhere in L.A. lately," noted fellow art writer Jori Finkel). They are baroque, sciencey, glam, funk: on fire. (More feathers: Elliott Hundley, Liz Craft.)
Dark Cloud Version II (2006) by Anna Sew Hoy
Black Noir (detail) by Anna Sew Hoy
Ballad of the Hippie (2003) by Liz Craft
The handful of Matthew Monahan's sculptures and drawings at the Hammer mystified me, but over at LA MOCA, his solo show was like a West Coast, contemporary version of the new Greek and Roman galleries at the Metropolitan Museum in New York: works for the ages on war and mythical subjects, in a space aptly flooded with light. Monahan's Janus-like figurative columns and his drawings of faces on paper, crumpled and mounted on pedestals made of Sheetrock (one owned by the kingly Michael Ovitz), are contemporary ruins and preemptively toppled monuments.
Making the rounds, I encountered much more than just sculpture worth recommending: video, photographs, and a text piece from artist-writer-activist Allan Sekula's Shipwreck and Workers (a version of which is also at Documenta) at Christopher Grimes; Chen Xiaoyun's arresting video Lash, in an impromptu back-room screening from Christian Haye, founder of MC Gallery and New York's Project Gallery;
and, at Susanne Vielmetter, Allie Bogle's roomful of movie snow that feels like cool gelatinous tapioca between the toes, and Timothy Tompkins's still-life paintings of marked-down leftover items at department stores.
Target Still Life - Spring (after Chardin) (2004) by Timothy Tompkins
I missed Wack! Art and the Feminist Revolution (it closed July 16 and will be coming to the Vancouver Art Gallery in October 2008), but made Identity Theft: Eleanor Antin, Lynn Hershman, Suzy Lake 19721978, curated by Finkel at Santa Monica Museum of Art. Antin, Lake, and Hershman, all influences on Cindy Sherman and working just before she began her film stills series, are, compared to Sherman, more haunting, funny, and powerfully weird. Not to mention overlooked.
Portrait of the King (1972) by Eleanor Antin
At the Dan Flavin retrospective (at Los Angeles County Museum of Art), I found myself totally reconsidering his reputation as a minimalist. I left reeling. What pathos. Two works stand out: the portrait-like 1962 icon V (Coran's Broadway Flesh) and, in a dark, dead-end room, his blood-red 1966 monument 4 for those who have been killed in ambush (to P.K. who reminded me about death). I left that room to avoid breaking down in tears.

Love and Other Things I'm Bad at: Rocky Road Trip/Sundae My Prince Will Come (Paperback)
What's a girl to do when there are two guys who seem like The One?
Just when Courtney has found the Best Boyfriend Ever (aptly named Grant Superior), she has to leave him to go to college, because apparently the universe doesn t want her to be happy. Now that she's three states away, what's going to happen to her Superior relationship? And what about that cute guy she works with at college? No, not him. Him. Definitely getting in the way with his cuteness. But not distracting Courtney enough to make her stop wondering what exactly happened between Grant and her best friend, Beth, back home. Why can t dating be as easy as eating a healthy vegan diet? Not that she's ever managed that, either, but still.
Will Courtney ever figure out how to get this love thing right?

If you go to the court and found guilty of speeding?
DUI / DWI Attorney
The California Rules of Court prohibit the traffic court from having a blanket rule of denying traffic school because a defendant exercises his/her right to a trial but as a practical matter, I would not expect traffic school post conviction.
Be sure that you have a legal argument for trial. The commissioners HATE the emotional argument, e.g., "The cop was mean to me", or "I would never do that".
Speeding / Traffic Ticket Lawyer
You shouldn't -but some judges will deny traffic school if after hearing your testimony find you so at odds with officers's testimony. Get an attorney .
Andrew Roberts (818) 597-0633/ (805) 496-7777
DUI / DWI Attorney
Technically, no. The court has discretion after trial. Unfortunately however, some judges in certain counties will deny traffic school after trial for no good reason.

I'm experiencing a very curious problem. A link to the CPanel of one of the sites on our VPS-server keeps attaching itself to a line in style.css of the Twenty Eleven theme when I look at it through Edit CSS in FF.
What is irritating, it's not to the Cpanel of that domain, it is to ANOTHER domain (which also runs WP). The same happens on THAT domain. But on two more domains on same server no such links.
Additionally it is a link which shouldn't be out in the open, it goes into detailed file structure.
I then checked the database and the link can't be found in any document located in that. I couldn't find it anywhere among the normal files either.
So now I wonder whether there is a script active in WP which launches a "call" for that location and why that is so?


text: Gary: I am wondering who is the Hillary he is talking about. He could only identify one accomplishment, the Children's health thing back when she was first lady. True, she hasn't accomplished anything since. She cares about others. I guess that is why she covered up all her doings with a private server, used her position to create personal wealth, and lies without consciousness time after time. This is all we will hear next week, but I don't think it will work with a lot of Americans. Hillary is as phony as a $3 bill. I found the Spanish thing somewhat offensive. Sure, I know he is playing to the Latino crowd, but this is America and we speak English. He can speak Spanish in Mexico. Now, I would ask America to wake up and realize that Hillary cannot accomplish much of anything she proposes. Most of it has to get through Congress which will never happen. Free this, free that, give me a break.

Historical Traveler Reviews Residence Inn Lake Buena Vista Orlando
Very Spacious and Warm Pool
We stayed here the middle of March and had a two room suite for $209 per night, cheaper than getting two rooms. Plus very spacious, clean, nice kitchen area and some privacy! The pool was a good size and was just the right tempature, feels great after a day of hitting the sites!
Good (warm) breakfast in the morning with plenty of seating. Friendly staff. We had had reservations for two nights, but they were overbooked so sent us (and paid for the whole thing) to a hotel just down the street that had the same amenties and same size room. Upon returning to Residence Inn for our second night at Disney there was a Thank you note, fresh cookies and two bottles of water thanking us for our understanding! Very nice place, it will be our choice in the future!
Loved the Residence Inn Orlando Lake Buena Vista
We stayed at the hotel in June 2003. It was excellent! The staff was great! The breakfast (free) was wonderful. The rooms were clean.
Without hesitation, we would stay at this hotel again. They are a pet friendly hotel and will work with you on cleaning your room. The pet fee is high, but worth it.
Great place
What a find -- big, clean room, very comfortable bed, friendly and helpful staff. We stayed three nights and could not have been happier.
Especially liked the maps and directions we were given for our forays in and around Orlando. My husband loved the hot eggs/bacon, etc.
breakfast; I appreciated the fact that they had yogurt and oatmeal. We got a good price and would definitely go back. Did not use the shuttle on our viist to Epcot but had no trouble getting there because the staff had a "back way" direction that was fast and easy.
Excellent, the best ever
My family stayed at this hotel in October 2003 and I must say this was the best hotel experience I have ever had. The hotel was more than I could have hoped for. It was clean and the employees were great. The location was extemely nice as it is not on a commercial street and still close to Disney World. Restaurants are close as well. As for the hotel itselt, This is the first hotel that I really could really get a decent nights sleep. The breakfast bar was worth the stay alone. The variety of food and the cleanliness was somthing I have never seen. The room was fantastic, beds were comfortable and the room was clean.
Supplies were there before you needed them. The only thing that was a stretch was the waterfall that is listed in the brochure. The pool area was large and no one was falling or swimming into anyone. I do think that the out jacuzzi needs to be watched to keep out kids. As usual they were using it as a pool. This is a parent issue more than an hotel issue but the hotel needs to inforce the no kid rule for the jazcuzzi.
I enjoyed this so much we are planning another visit to this hotel even though we are not planning on going to Disney World. If you are looking for a vacation spot this is it. I can honestly say it has everything you could want and more.
Great hotel in every way. I highly recommend it.
This suite hotel is great for families. The free full breakfast (including bacon and scrambled eggs, several waffle machines, fresh fruit, cereal, a few more things, and drinks) was very good and was served buffet-style in a large, clean area not far from the lobby. The Residence Inn LBV is only a couple of years old and feels new. The exterior of the hotel has a very appealing look. The pool is nice, and there is a children's pool as well. The rooms are clean and come with a full kitchen. The hotel is located very conveniently to Walt Disney World (it takes about four minutes to drive from the hotel parking lot to Disney property, then only a few short minutes after that to a Disney theme park). I dealt with three different people at the front desk and they were all very friendly and helpful. I very highly recommend this hotel.
I love the residence inn orlando-Lake Buena Vista
i love the residence inn lbv because our family stayed in this hotel for 2 years now this marks the 3years that our family stay in this wonderful hotel. i will give this hotel a 10 that is the best or the also i give this hotel a excellent 5 i really love it because of the free breakfast and the vcr.
Wonderful Stay
Beautiful facility from rooms to public areas. Lovely pool area. Resort feel. Safe clean and comfortable. Home away from home. Excellent breakfasts. Will stay again.
What a fantastic palce
Stayed here for 6 nights in September/October 2003. Wasn't sure what to expect as sometimes website pictures can be deceiving. It was brilliant. Best customer service outside of WDW! Great suites. Large and spotlessly clean. Kitchen was a real bonus (including ice machine in the fridge). Bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on, and so big!!! The pool was never crowded and the hot tub was great.
Breakfast was included and was very good. Only complaint was that the coffee was not the best, but then I am something of a coffee snob! We would definately stay there again and I just hope that it doesn't deteriorate in years to come as so many Orlando hotels have done
Loved This Hotel
I like all Residence Inn Hotels as a rule, and very much enjoyed our trip here last year. I wanted to take my father to Disney World and got a great rate using his AARP card. We were paying $105 for a two-room suite. We each had our own private bedrooms and bathrooms! When you aren't used to living with your father, that's a major plus! We enjoyed the suite aspect, with the common living room and kitchen. They also provide a nice breakfast bar which is included. They have people walking around telling you about timeshares and such, but they really weren't high pressure (as in some other Orlando hotels) and didn't bug us every day. We really enjoyed our stay here. We had a car and felt very close to the main highways and entrances to Disney World. Would definitely stay here again on any future trip.
Excellent service
Last year we took a trip to florida and as I am very familiar with Residence Inn properties I immediately sought one out for our week long vacation. We arrived around 9 p.m. after a long drive and were greeted courteously and treated with much respect. The room was immaculate and spacious. When it was time to go home I did not want to leave. It was a wonderful value for the price and truly stood up to its name.

I'm writing a program in C# that basically serves one simple purpose. It's supposed to act like a server for clients to ping. This server program is meant only to determine whether a computer is still on or not by returning the ping requests. I don't need the program to send any information back to the client other than responding to the ping requests. The simple ping response is enough information to acknowledge the computer running the application is still on.
I'm currently approaching this by using a TCP server/client. However, it appears that I'm unable to connect to the TCP server. Is this because the server needs to have port 80 open in order to be pinged? My TCP server code is based around this thread I found:
Send/Receive Bytes using TCP Sockets over internet (possibly using static IP)
Is there something inherently wrong with that method? Or is there a much easier way to create this simple server that only needs to accept and respond to ping requests?

WBA World light heavyweight champion Beibut Shumenov (14-1, 9 KO's) plans on putting IBF light heavyweight champion Bernard Hopkins (54-6-2, 32 KO's) out to pasture tonight by beating him and sending the 49-year-old fighter into his next endeavor in their fight on Showtime from the DC Armory, in Washington, District of Columbia, USA. While Hopkins has been bragging all week long how he's going to school the 30-year-old Shumenov in this fight, it's Shumenov who feels that he'll be coming up victorious.
"I have no doubts I'll be the winner," Shumenov said. "I'm going to show the world what I'm capable of. I'm going to show I'm the best one in our division."
It's impossible for Shumenov to show that he's the best fighter in the division by beating the 49-year-old Hopkins, because there are two arguably better fighters than him in Adonis Stevenson and Sergey Kovalev. You can also make an argument that Jean Pascal could beat Hopkins at this point, even though he lost a close decision against him in 2011. Hopkins has gotten older since then, while Pascal is still more or less the same fighter he was in 2011.
Shumenov has the tools to beat Hopkins if he puts an effort into throwing a lot of punches every round. Shumenov has the kind of power that would give Hopkins problems, but the only thing he needs is to put pressure on him. One thing that's going to hurt Shumenov is that he's faced such weak opposition during his career. It's going to be a considerable bump up in competition for him, and that could be a problem for him if he's unable to adjust to the better talent that Hopkins has going for him. It doesn't matter that Shumenov isn't as talented or as experienced as Hopkins. If he can put pressure on him and throw a lot of punches, that might be enough to get the win.
Shumenov has beaten Tamas Kovacs, Enrique Ornelas, Danny Santiago and William Joppy in his last four fights. Those guys are far below Hopkins in the talent perspective and that in itself could be a problem for Shumenov. In other words, he might not be ready for someone as good as Hopkins after years of weak opponents.

Secondly the wpsc stylesheets are added in the wrong order, with the default loaded after my theme stylesheet, and consequently overriding it.
Where is the information about stylesheets stored? How do I fix up duplicates and wrong order. Thanks
