Experiential Marketing
UK advertisers currently spend more than 4% of their total advertising expenditure on experiential. This figure is expected to rise over the next few years, aided by the significant role digital now plays in extending live consumer experiences to a wider online audience, delivering genuine scale.
According to MICE, Experiential will continue to grow faster than any other marketing channel because it delivers greater brand loyalty and encourages WOM.
Experiential has an important role to play in driving both action and advocacy. Consumers don't experience a media plan, they experience how a brand behaves, what it sounds and feels like.
True experiential marketing has evolved
At Kommando we view Experiential marketing in its intended, academic and purely immersive form. Kommando Experiential is not just a tasty sampling event, nor a pretty brand experience. It's the burning fire at the very core of any consumer marketing campaign and we use every 'tool' at our disposal, including social media and clever technology, to fan the flames.
Well created and expertly delivered Experiential marketing focuses on the customer's physical as well as emotional experience to build deeper loyalty. No matter how good an idea is or how well it is pitched, you simply can't make a square peg fit the round hole, in other words if it doesn't follow the rules, you'll never see the benefits of Experiential marketing.
Where Traditional marketing fails to determine the sensory, emotional, cognitive endurance, behavioral, relationship needs of consumers, Experiential marketing has philosophy, neurobiology, psychology and sociological theory, to connect and reach out to the consumer.
For the best experiential you need the most experienced team.

Warrior and Elementalist Combo
Posted 26 November 2012 - 03:15 AM
My sister and I have been playing a warrior and elementalist team for the last week and have reached the point where we need to start thinking about how we want to apply our traits and skill points from now on.
She is primarily dealing damage with a staff in fire mode and then switching over to water when I need healing. Her build is hopefully designed to maximize her damage output and relies on my warrior to keep the mobs off of her.
My job is to tank and keep the mobs off her. For this task I have chosen the hammer as it allows me some good crowd control skills and 2 aoe stuns. I also have a sword and axe combo that I will switch too when I need to deal some extra damage. I picked the sword and axe so that I can have the leap finish for fire aura and the whirl finish as well.
I'm having some trouble deciding which skill will be better off for tanking and crowd control. Someone told me mace shield was the best for tanking but it seems too limited to one foe for my taste. I have also had people recommend shout heal but I am kind of leaning towards banner regen.
I'll post links to the two builds we are using below. Please let me know what you all think.

Ok but later, I am sleepy D:
Well, I'll tell you what I've done so far.
He said his favorite weapon type was Sword/Axe, and his sister liked Staff and being a dps with fire.
I told him that there really isn't a way for him to be supporty with sword/axe, but he could run a variant VS build using Sword/Warhorn. He likes the swift agile playstyle of Sword/Axe due to his main being a ranger, so I figured Sword/Warhorn will do him just as good. Now all that's left for this guy is to figure out a build combination that will keep him and his sister alive in PvE, AND help out their team in a dungeon.
(As you can probably guess, making two builds that compliment each other is great, but if they work too well together than chances are you're hurting the rest of your team. The more points you put into supporting each other specifically, the less points you have for all around support of the group.)
Not to mention hammer can mess with his sisters AoEs (Damn you knockback!!!).
I also persuaded him that VS is better than IBS (Because it is)
So yeah, now I just need to get him the build and then we can work on his sisters (I'm no expert at elementalists though >.<)

I'm trying to create this build to be able to deal damage and to take it. The warhorn just felt too much like I was on the sidelines.
I am thinking about making my two weapon sets be sword axe and perhaps mace shield.
The sword axe would let me quickly build up adrenaline using Whirling Axe and then lay down several stacks of bleed with my burst skill combined with 20 points in Arms. I also love Whirling Axe's long lasting combo with aoe fields.
I can then switch over to mace shield when facing off against tougher foes. I figure by specing 20 points into Defense to get me Shield Master and Adrenal Health, I should be able to greatly increase my survivability when in this weapon set.
I'll post the build below. Please let me know if I'm over reaching. I realize that it is hard to take and deal damage within one build but I'd like to give it a shot. I figure my sister's elementalist will be primarily in charge of dealing damage so I should focus on defense but I would still like to be able to switch over to offense when the situation isn't as dire.

Ehhhh...warriors have better damage than elementalists. Your arrangement seems backward. The elementalist should be the supporter, the warrior the dps. I'd go with hammer if your sister likes using fire attunement, the cd on the fire combo field coupled with your blast finisher from the burst skill will help you stack might. If you use For Great Justice, you'll pretty much have 6-9 stacks of might constantly.

Sword Main: I like all the bleeds it can apply which feels familiar with my ranger. I also enjoy Savage Leap's ability to close distance.
Offhand: I do like that you can use Impale while closing distance on an enemy though the cool down is rather long.
Hammer: I like it's ability to hit multiple foes but I find it to be rather slow and has no way to close a gap besides the burst skill.
Longbow: I like it's ability to hit multiple foes but burning stacks duration instead of intensity.
Axe Main: I like the ability to apply vulnerability and how quickly it hits but it has no way to quickly close a gap besides the burst skill.
Off:I like how dual strikes quickly applies fury. I also like how you can follow that up with whirling strike to lay down several hits which have the possibility of being critical and all get the whirl combo.
Greatsword: Still feel a little slow after my ranger and not a fan of whirlwind attack or how slow of a charge rush is.
Mace Main: The last hit on the main chain is a little slow but I like the stuns and that you can block an attack though the counter doesn't hit for very much.
Off: The cool downs seem to be too large to be worth it.
Rifle: Like the bleeds, cripple, vulnerability, and knockback. Not as sure about since it can only attack one opponent though.
Warhorn: Honestly not really a fan of this at all.
Shield: I enjoy the stun and the ability to become invincible for a few seconds when needed.
In summary, I guess in order of my favorites the would be Axe Off, Sword Main, Axe Main, Mace Main, Shield, and then rifle or longbow.
I hope this helps.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 11:34 PM
Axe/mace is also a good choice aswell due to the damage/control.
By the bulk of it though it seems as if you prefer the 1 handed weapons over the 2 handed ones. Different to see that. If you would like me to actually detail my build, let me know and ill explain it too you with the skills, traits and what not.
I'm going to go test a couple of things.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:40 AM
I'd like to point out here that Whirlwind attack is a free dodge and powerful AoE, and that Rush is by no means a "Slow charge".
You might consider a Hammer/Longbow build that applies heavy boon support, great defenses, great heals, and would synergize greatly with your sisters Fire build. Tell me if you want to hear more about this type of build (It would make you a tank, you'd be weapon swapping a lot so the combat wouldn't feel so slow, you'd be helping your sister a ton and your group in a dungeon, and it would give you a way to close gaps with the Longbow)
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:51 AM
I didn't realize that Whirlwind attack made you invulnerable. By slow charge I mean that It seems like you are traveling at a regular running speed or perhaps a little faster and is slow in comparison to leap skills.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 02:01 AM
Main: Sword/Mace
Second: Longbow
Gear: Knight's Armour, Berserker Weapons and Berserker Accessories.
Sword - Superior Sigil of Force - 5% damage increase
Mace - Superior Sigil of Blood - 30% chance to steal life on crit (2 second cooldown)
Longbow - Superior Sigil of Perception - 10 precision each time you kill a foe. (max 25 stacks and ends on down)
Spec - 10, 25, 15, 0, 20
Mending - Heal yourself and cure 2 conditions.
Shake it off - Cure a condition from yourself and allies, breaks stun.
For Great Justive - Grant fury (8 seconds) and Might (25 seconds) to you and nearby allies. Radius = 1200
Endure Pain - Take no damage from attacks for 5 seconds.
Signet of Rage - Passive: Grants adrenaline Active: Gain Fury, Might and Swiftness for 30 seconds.
Runes - Superior Runes of Rage
The 6 Runes give you +10% crit damage flat out, +15% with fury. +20% Fury duration. 5% chance to gain fury for 30s when hit. (cooldown: 60s)
Putting It Together
With my armour and accessories complied without the buffs i run around with a crit rate of 52% unbuffed. Add the 25 stack of perception, i get to around 62-63%. Add the 10% from the sword i am at 72-73%. Add fury you are now at 92-93% crit. With a full bar of adrenaline your crit is now over 100%. Each crit you have a 30% to drain life too. Fully buffed you will have a bonus of an extra 47% crit damage from the 150% base. Putting you close to 200% damage each time you crit. Pretty much a given when you have a couple stacks of might on you from the signet of rage and for great justice.
This means your crit is now absurd, you will almost crit every attack while buffed. With an exotic sword (With sigil of force), a full adrenaline bar and a bit of might your damage will around about be 1600, 1600, 3200 from auto attacks alone. This is 6400 damage within the space of 2 seconds if you include the first autoattack. You hit like a truck essentially while being mobile. Add around 500 damage to that if the life steal works from the sigil of blood.
My armour stands at 2692 as well which will keep you safe. In extreme cases pop endure pain, switch to longbow, fire your F1 ability, swap back to sword (Cooldown from switching is now 5 seconds) leap. Gain fire aura. Destroy everything around you.
The mace is also your damage tool via crushing blow (10 stacks of vulnerability) as well as a control tool, hence the knockdown of tremor.
With the cooldown reduction on the signet of rage and the enhanced length of fury you are near enough have a 100% fury uptime with for great justice.
So there you go, you are now a crit monster who steals health and hits like a truck with the mobility of the sword and the support of the bow. This build focuses on you being a berserker but in some instances it can be tweaked on the fly for a couple of situations. e.g. World mobs you switch to the longbow and Battle Standard.
Give it a go. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as i do. It was what moved me away from the GS. It's done well for me in PvE and Dungeons so feel free to check it out for yourself.

Although I agree that Rush is not as fast as a leap, you are definitely not traveling at regular speed. Rush makes you move significantly faster than normal speed.. seems like the difference between moving with swiftness vs moving without, and what's even better is that when you actually *do* have swiftness, you're really trucking along.
Also yea, Whirlwind Attack is absolutely amazing. It's pretty much the main reason I like GS (other reaons too, but man I love ww attack).

The hammer LB build is pretty simple... Lets see here...
Siroso posted this on my Sonic Boon thread:
Siroso, on 18 November 2012 - 08:19 AM, said:
Go 0/0/25/30/15 with Embrace the Pain, Merciless Hammer, Stronger Bowstrings, Lung Capacity, Vigorous Shouts, Inspiring Shouts. Utility skills would include FGJ, Shake it off, and either On My Mark, or the Banner of Tactics. The banner is definitely better for dungeons I find, as it lets you stack constant regen on your teammates if you are using the boon duration runes.
Obviously it leans towards a more support based build, but it's definitely just as effective at the might stacking side of things, if not more so. Personally I use the Clerics gear.
If you would like any more details, just shout... if you can pardon the pun.***
Now, this seems like exactly what you are looking for, and I would suggest running something like this: 0/0/25/30/15
Taking out Stronger Bowstrings simply because with this build you're going to be on top of the enemy, blasting LB F1 under yourself, then the 3 skill, swapping to Hammer, build up adrenaline using one of the shouts and then use Hammer F1, then grab your banner, cast the 2 skill and then use the 5 skill. Rinse lather repeat. This will put a ton of boon support on you and your allies in the area.
You should message Siroso and ask him about your options here, because I'm certainly no expert on this type of build!
Posted 28 November 2012 - 06:22 AM
I am curious about your build. If you are so focused on crits why did you chose sword over axe? I am honestly tempted to go with ax since it hits faster and more often and has another vulnerability applying skill. I guess, since your build sets you up with nearly 100% crit it really doesn't matter that the ax will hit more times because every hit will be a crit regardless and thus wont really be a gamble. The Bust skill for the axe is a leap, however it has a rather short range.. so suddenly I'm leaning towards sword again. However, I can't help but feel like the vulnerability may be worth the change. What did you find?
Please keep in mind that this build will never be used outside of conjunction with an Elementalist. Brand, as you pointed out to me earlier, wouldn't hammer be a poor choice since I am likely to knock opponents out of her aoe fields?
Also, still curious about that long bow. Since she will be applying burning with several of her attack and I will already have her aoe fields to combo with, is Longbow still the best option for my secondary weapon set?

Longbow is still your best option because your condition damage will be pretty high, and LB gives you a blast combo with Arcing arrow (Pretty sure no other weaposn minus hammer and LB give a blast combo)
Posted 28 November 2012 - 08:18 AM
we dont really build specifically for each other instead we build for the group. what we do is we time our attacks to generate the maximum field and finisher combo with whatever we have with us.
We start of by getting the finishers off cooldown.
He will inform me when its all ready to fire.
I will drop fields depending on what ever is needed the most atm.(fire for dmg, water for healing, lightning for dmg(vulnerability))
He starts droping different finishers.
As one field expires I change to another until He says he out of finishers.
We both stop, use our non-field/finishers to attack until the finishers are off cooldown again.
this is repeated until the end of the fight.
this is our way of maximizing combo fields in pve.
our builds by itself can support the group as a whole during dungeons.
throw in a well timed combo as a bonus and makes the whole thing easy.
As the elementalist trying to maximize combos I usually avoid staying attune to fire for so long. fire has a good damage output albeit its long cooldown. I stick usually with water/lightning. switching to earth when I feel that my brother will says his finishers are up. and start with an eruption followed by a field of my choosing. to start the combo with a blast finisher.
taking the master trait for longer fire fields are really well worth it in these stituation. as the fire fields will have minimal downtime dispite avoiding fire attunement for too long. this allows you to cast Lava front with a long enough duration to recast it right after channeling the entire meteor shower.
I play a well rounded elementalist with magi armors(healing, precision, vitality) and berserker weapon/accessories(power, precision, crit dmg). I took 20% shorter water cooldowns. this works will due to the staff's water skill having 3 fields(2 water, 1 ice). I usually stay water or lightning attuned during fights depending on the difficulty/success rate of the encounter. for breeze walk encounter I stick with fire to speed things up.
atm he plays a thief. and has a crazy blast finish with a shortbow. making our combos way too effective. instead of cooldowns we wait for initiative. and unlike the warrior the delay between combos is shorter since the initiative is used for all skills. instead of the cooldown mechanic likes other classes do.

What did you find?
The sword makes the 100% crit a reality. If i didn't have a sword it would be around 92% buffed which is viablo course but i crit all the time and hit like a monster so i'm ok with it personally. The sword naturally bleeds so there is an additional 10% damage without doing anything extra. I don't use burst skills that often unless i really need the Longbows F1 ability to again maintain that high crit. Mace provides it's own vulnerability for 10 seconds as well so the axe isn't preffered by me personally.
But however, it is your decision in the end, what do you like playing with, what works for you etc. Offhand axe for me is pretty bad, i don't need the adrenaline and the 5th attack is low dps compared to my regular autoattack. I love that bit of control from the mace too.
On a combo field note.
Elementalists have access to the following fields:
We only get access to this:
Longbow |||||||||||||||||Fire|||||||||||||||||Combustive Shot
So, naturally we are going to react more to the elementalist fields rather than they react to us. So from Sword/Mace we can potientially do the following.
Physical Projectile
Longbow: Dual Shot
Longbow: Pin Down
Offhand Mace: Tremor
Longbow: Arcing Arrow
Sword: Savage Leap
In a fire field you can get:
Area Might x3 20 seconds (Blast)
Fire Armour (Burns foes for 1s if they hit you, lasts 3 seconds) (Leap)
Burning (Adds the burn condition to attacks) (Physical Projectile)
In a Water Field you can get:
Area Healing (Blast)
Direct Healing to the Player (Leap)
Regeneration 2s (Physical Projectile)
In a Ice Field you can get:
Area Frost Armour (Chill foes that hit you) (Blast)
Frost Armour (Same as before but just for you) (Leap)
Chilled effect on the bad guy (Physical Projectile)
Finally in a Lightning Field you can get:
Area Swiftness (Blast)
Dazing Strike (Dazes target) (Leap)
Apply Vulnerability (More Damage) (Physical Projectile)
There are the possible combinations that can accur from the weapon sets specifically for an elementalists potiential combo fields. Since i'm going to assume fire is the most likely field to occur you will essentially get permanent Fire Armour due to leap if you wanted. Making everything that touches you burn in flames.

Ie: should I keep the same trait set up or change to a bit more supportive. For instance, your trait line has no traits in tactics which makes changing it to get vigorous shouts takes some rearranging.
Having a tough time deciding what to cut but perhaps something like this?
Precision will be highly important but what else should I be looking for?
Things of that nature.

Posted 29 November 2012 - 10:35 AM
You won't be able to get 100% crit though unless you get more berserker gear. I could do it without needing it because of the trait lines but still, you will only miss out on 9% crit chance. If that is a problem you could get the sigil of accuracy to increase that chance by 5% on the sword rather than the sigil of force. Needless to say, that crit is still very, very high. This build focuses on you hitting like a truck with the healing component of shout heals. Just don't rely on the shout heals too much and it'l be fine.The shorter the cooldown on the signet of rage, the better too. That's why i put points there.
Only some minor tweaks needed to support the shout build really. Try that out and see if you like it or not. You do not need the 100% crit, you should be ok with 93% buffed. If you want more trade the sigil of force with the sigil of accuracy giving you 98% crit chance.
Edit: If you're using healing shouts, mending is a much better alternative than healing surge personally as it cures two conditions and your shouts will make up the lost healing.

I would have the warrior spec into 30 discipline Earthshaker spam to blast out might stacks or w/e other combos are being put down.

Research Focus
Genetic and molecular analysis of oogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster
The mature egg of Drosophila melanogaster contains information that determines the major axis of the embryo. This information is built into the egg during oogenesis and functions in the early embryo to create a regionally distinct pattern of zygotic gene expression. The work in the laboratory focuses on understanding the nature and distribution of this maternal information. In particular, we are analyzing how this spatial information is built into the egg during oogenesis.
As a first step in the analysis, we carried out screens for female sterile and maternal-effect mutations. Several classes of mutations that affect the pattern of the egg or the body pattern of the embryo were identified. We have subsequently concentrated on mutations in our collection that affect not only the spatial pattern of the embryo but also the pattern of the egg shell. These genes act early during oogenesis to establish the spatial pattern of the egg chamber as a whole, including both the pattern of the egg shell which is produced by the follicle cells situated on the outside of the egg chamber as well as the spatial distribution, or local activation of the maternal cytoplasmic determinants that specify the pattern of the embryo. Mosaic analysis has shown that some of the genes in this class act in the germline itself, while a second group of genes functions in the follicle cells.
The analysis of these genes has demonstrated that cell-cell interactions between germline and follicle cells take place during oogenesis and are important for the establishment of the normal pattern of egg shell and embryo. One of the genes required for the dorsoventral pattern of egg and embryo (torpedo) is homologous to the vertebrate Epidermal Growth Factor receptor (EFGr). This vertebrate protein is known to function as a transmembrane receptor with tyrosine kinase activity. A detailed genetic analysis of this gene has revealed that this receptor tyrosine kinase is used at several different stages in the Drosophila life cycle and promotes different cell communication processes. During oogenesis it is expressed in the follicle cells, and enables the follicle cells to receive dorsoventral patterning signals from the germline. The genes that act in the germline are involved in the production of this germline signal. In particular we found that the gene gurken encodes a protein that has homology to the vertebrate signaling molecule TGF-alpha. Therefore, gurken encodes a ligand for torpedo/Egfr. Interestingly, during oogenesis, the gurken RNA becomes localized to the future dorsal side of the oocyte. The localized gurken RNA produces a high concentration of Gurken protein on the dorsal side of the egg. Localization of gurken RNA to one side of the oocyte therefore represents a first step in a cascade of events that determines dorsoventral pattern of the egg. We are conducting further experiments to analyze the mechanisms that lead to the asymmetric localization of the gurken RNA.
Once activated, the torpedo receptor tyrosine kinase must interact with other gene products in the follicle cells to determine the dorsoventral fate of the follicle cells. We are currently analyzing genes that may act as downstream targets of the kinase in follicle cells. Eventually this should allow us to define in precise genetic and molecular terms how a dorsoventral signal is first produced in the germline during oogenesis, how this signal is transmitted from the germline to the overlying follicle cells, how it determines the fate of the follicle cells, and how the follicle cells, in turn, send a new signal to the germ cell that ultimately defines the dorsoventral pattern of the embryo.

Where Should I Form My Corporation?
One of the first decisions a business must make after deciding to incorporate involves selecting the proper state of incorporation. You are not required to incorporate in the state where your business operates; you can choose from any one of the 50 states or the District of Columbia.
In making the decision of where to incorporate, three factors typically are weighed: the location of your physical facilities, a cost analysis comparing incorporating in the state of operation versus qualifying to do business as a foreign corporation in the state under consideration, and determining the advantages and disadvantages of each state's corporate laws and tax structure.
The decision typically is between the state of operations and Delaware, Nevada or Florida. If the corporation is a closely held corporation that does business primarily within a single state, local incorporation is typically the best decision. The cost of local incorporation will usually be less than incorporating in another state and qualifying to do business as a foreign corporation in that state.
A foreign corporation that qualifies to do business in another state is subject to taxes and annual report fees from both the state of incorporation and the qualifying state. Thus, the actual advantage of incorporating in a state with very low or no corporate income tax is not as great as it appears, if your business must still qualify to do business in its state of operations.
The most popular states for are Delaware, Nevada, and Florida for various reasons.

Ringwood Park
Newcastle MG Car Club's 4.6 hectare Newcastle Motor Racing Complex is located at Ringwood Park, 10 km north of Raymond Terrace. The complex features a quality, C.A.M.S. Registered, 500 metre bitumen sealed, Hillclimb Course which is regularly enjoyed by Club members eager to challenge the 28.13 second record. The facility also serves as a venue for a round of the NSW Hillclimb Championships. Elsewhere on the acreage there is an unsealed Khanacross circuit.
Future plans for the Complex include extending the Hillclimb by adding another loop at the top of the current course.
The process took nearly seven years from start to finish and everything has been on hold while we awaited the court decision. Now, we need to consider our position.
Ringwood Park also contains an extensive set of dirt khanacross tracks and a number of dirt motorkhana areas.

STOCKTON - Organizers planning to mark the 25th anniversary of the 1989 shootings at Cleveland Elementary School are encouraging anyone who was at the Stockton school that day to participate in a commemorative event scheduled for Jan. 17.
The event - "Remember the past; make our future better" - is being organized by Cleveland School Remembers and by the Asian Pacific Self-Development and Residential Association, or APSARA. It will be held beginning at 5:30 p.m. at the APSARA Community Center, 3830 Alvarado Ave. in Stockton.
Five young Cleveland students were killed and 31 people were wounded on Jan. 17, 1989, by a man who walked onto the school's midtown Stockton campus and began firing an assault rifle. At the end of his shooting spree, 26-year-old Patrick Purdy killed himself.
Organizers of the commemorative event are looking for former Cleveland teachers and other staff members, first responders, surviving victims, parents and other family members of the victims, and anyone else in the community who was affected by the 1989 tragedy.
For information, email email@example.com or email@example.com.

Remakes Rethink: Is Hollywood Really Out Of Ideas?
It's been a big year for Hollywood remakes — more than a dozen, not counting sequels. But is that always a bad thing? Critic Bob Mondello points out that painters, musicians and playwrights get new mileage out of old ideas — and argues that filmmakers often do too.

The main thing to compare here today is the performance of the 9800GX2 against the HD 3870 X2 from AMD. We've also thrown in the 8800GT, as the specifications on a single core of a 9800GX2 is only slightly above that of an 8800GT, this should mean that if a game doesn't take advantage of SLI then the performance should only be just above the single 8800GT.
We've tested our standard resolutions purely for consistency, but once we've completed it we will sit back and evaluate the scores to see if it's worth going to the next level. If we get barely playable scores with decent settings at 1920 x 1200, then what's the point of testing it at 2560 x 1600 when we know it's not going to be playable at all? - The fact that the GX2 can get an average of 20FPS Vs. a HD 3870 X2 getting an average of 18FPS doesn't really prove anything.
Version and / or Patch Used: Build 110

3DMark06 is the very latest version of the "Gamers Benchmark" from FutureMark. The newest version of 3DMark expands on the tests in 3DMark05 by adding graphical effects using Shader Model 3.0 and HDR (High Dynamic Range lighting) which will push even the best DX9 graphics cards to the extremes.
3DMark06 also focuses on not just the GPU but the CPU using the AGEIA PhysX software physics library to effectively test single and Dual Core processors.
In our first test we can see performance from the GX2 is very close to that of the X2. At the higher resolutions you can see the large gains over the G92 based 8800GT.

The day after I found this web site whilst looking for them on the net.
I was worried that I too had fallen for the trap.
I contacted them via email (which I no longer have a record of) and the responded and after phone calls and emails I received my luggage so I thought it was all legitimate but now that it's time to extend my holiday I am unable to contact them.
Every phone number I have is either disconnected, belongs to someone else or has a recorded message saying they will return my call... and of course that doesn't happen.
I have sent numerous emails to the numerous email addresses i have gained through this website and through the documentation they sent me and I get no reply.
The web address they gave me used to work when they first sent their documents to me and now it is up for sale so you can't access the site.
I only have a few days left to extend the holiday or I lose my money.
I am obviously nieve or other wise I wouldn't have fallen into their trap but I need help as to who to contact urgently to try and resolve this issue. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME ASAP.
A year ago when I first thought it was suspicious I contacted Dept of fair trading australia and was told that there is nothing they can do as it is an international company and when I spoke to the phone company to try and trace the call they said their was nothing they could do either.
Please someone help me.
And to everyone else... please be careful of these horribly nasty heartless people.
I don't have the email addresses and phone numbers with me today but I will update this report asap and post all the information I have so that hopefully it will help others.

Graduate Architecture Program Ranked #7 in the Nation
A new ratings system based solely on student reviews places SAIC's grad program for Architecture among the nation's top ten. SAIC was ranked number 7 in the top-25 list published November 1, ahead of such traditional powerhouses as Harvard (9th) and Columbia University (20th).
SAIC offers two Master of Architecture (MArch) degree programs in four tracks that are accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). The accreditation makes alumni eligible for professional licensure. Only two other schools in Chicago offer NAAB-accredited degrees, and SAIC's MArch degree is one of just five nationwide that are accredited by NAAB among all those granted by the 41 members of the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design (AICAD).
The rankings represent a year of reviews from current and recent graduate students compiled by graduateprograms.com, an organization that solicits online feedback from students who qualify to win a scholarship from the nonprofit Graduate Programs Foundation based on their participation. Fifteen ranking categories are assigned to each graduate program at each graduate school. Rankings cover a variety of student topics, such as academic competitiveness, career support, financial aid, and quality of network. This year's rankings are based on reviews posted by more than 40,000 students participating in more than 1,300 graduate programs nationwide.

By Kari Hawkins, Redstone Rocket StaffAugust 28, 2008
The nation's "Black Hawk Down" pilot, who is the only survivor of a helicopter crash in Somalia nearly 15 years ago during the Battle of Mogadishu, told a group of contract managers that the U.S. has accomplished too much in Iraq to pull out before achieving mission success.
Retired Chief Warrant Officer 4 Mike Durant, who was portrayed in the 2001 military movie "Black Hawk Down" and who has authored two best-selling books based on his experiences in Somalia and in the Army, spoke about the need to properly manage the war in Iraq during a question-and-answer period following his presentation to members of the Huntsville Chapter of the National Contract Management Association at a luncheon meeting Aug. 21 at the Huntsville Marriott.
"Iraq, in the next few months, could be the same as Somalia if it's mismanaged," he said. "We all want the war to end, we just want to win it. That, to me, is non-negotiable.
"We've accomplished too much, we've sacrificed too much, to just pull out. We've got to go over the finish line. In the end, we've got to accomplish mission success."
Durant worries that, as in Somalia, mission success in Iraq and Afghanistan is making the U.S. complacent in an area of the world that is far too dangerous to take for granted.
"That's my greatest fear today. We have been doing so well for so long that we are going to get a little complacent," he said. "We are not preparing ourselves as well."
During his presentation, Durant, who is now owner, president and CEO of Pinnacle Solutions Inc., a local service-disabled, veteran-owned engineering services company, spoke about the events in 1993's Battle of Mogadishu, the leadership lessons learned during that battle and how those lessons can be applied in the business work force of today.
He began his comments by speaking about the number one key to success for any organization - its people and their working relationships among each other.
"One way to build those kinds of relationships is to put people in groups in adverse situations," he said. "You establish relationships with people you have experiences with."
Referring to the Super Six-Four team he worked with in Mogadishu in June to October 1993, Durant said his team of Soldiers had been together for five years. "We didn't have to talk. We were operating as one. We were the essence of a team, of a well-oiled machine," he said.
"When you are facing a difficult task, you don't want to be trying to figure out how to work together. You need to go into a difficult task knowing the team and how it works."
Other keys to success include leadership, resources, tactics, training and planning.
"Leaders have to understand all the success of a mission or an organization is their responsibility," he said.
In all decisions made by leadership, the main goal should be to positively impact the employee who is at "the point of the spear ... Leadership is responsible and employees are all an integral part of supporting the capability at the point of the spear."
In Mogadishu, Somalia, the failure of the mission came down to "what were the leaders doing that day, what decisions were being made and what aspects did those decisions affect," Durant said. "The resource piece of the puzzle was really the Achilles heel of the whole operation."
The mission also changed, forcing changes in tactics that were difficult because of the lack of resources.
"Mogadishu turned out to be a lesson in chaos," Durant said. "The place was a mess with civil war, drought, natural disasters. We thought we would intervene by providing food and aid through relief agencies.
"But food and aid wasn't getting to the people. So we sent in Soldiers. We opened supply lines and occupied the terrain, and didn't fire a single shot. It was an overwhelming success. Unfortunately, the mission began to change."
In June 1993, there was slaughter in the streets and warlords were running rampant. The U.S. targeted warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid, who was making public statements that he was responsible for the nation's massacres, for capture in Operation Gothic Serpent.
"We knew where he was so the mission was relatively straightforward. As long as we had access to the terrain, we had a 95 percent chance of success," Durant said.
"But Aidid was given three months to go underground. Tensions were building. And our forces were drawn down from 28,000 to 1,500. We were a skeleton of our former self and the U.S. took out all its armor in spite of the fact the mission was becoming more difficult and complex. And the people we were up against were starting to understand us better. The playing field tends to level with understanding."
The decisions to draw down troops and to remove resources were made by the U.S. administration.
"Leaders make decisions based on the facts they get from their staff," Durant said. "But what happens when those facts are wrong' Then, you are going to make wrong decisions."
Six missions - three during the day, three at night - were successful with light resistance and limited casualties. On Oct. 3, 1993, during Mission Seven, a rocket-propelled grenade shot down a Black Hawk. In most search-and-rescue missions, armored tanks are sent in to aid downed helicopters. But that request was denied and a second Black Hawk was sent in for search-and-rescue. It was also shot down by an RPG, but made it back to the airfield.
"When the first Black Hawk was shot down, we had a commander in the field with a crisis and with no resources to be successful," Durant said. "We had two options - to abandon him or send in another helicopter."
Durant and the Super Six-Four were then called in to provide coverage of the crash site from the sky so that ground troops could get to it. But Durant's Black Hawk was also hit by an RPG.
"I have to thank Redstone Arsenal because of all the technology they've gotten into the platform to save lives. There's a lot of redundancy built in the platforms for that purpose," Durant said. "That technology and those redundancies are the only reason that I am still here today. Everyone on that helicopter survived the crash."
He also credited survival school for bringing him through his 11 days of captivity.
"Had I not been trained on what to do in captivity in survival school, I would have had a far more difficult time sorting things out," he said. "At the time of the training you think I will never use this. It's obvious now why that training is needed."
In the Battle of Mogadishu, the U.S. lost five aircraft, and had 74 Soldiers wounded in action and 18 killed in what was billed a "relatively straightforward mission."
"The culprit was strategic resources," Durant said. "There was not enough contingency resources to allow Soldiers to adapt as the mission changed.
"It was a strategic failure, but a tactical success. If we think we're going to send people into harm's way, we are naAfA-ve to think no one's going to get hurt. When we commit, we have to commit all the way."
The Battle of Mogadishu would have ended differently if leadership would have provided the resources for a changing mission and if they had listened to the Soldiers who were facing the enemy. That lesson also transfers to business, Durant said, if the business wants to survive in a changing world.
"It's all about understanding who within the organization is at the point of the spear -- the people who get things done in an organization. Everything in the organization has to support those people," he said.
"You've got to resource them. You've got to understand the world they are working in. You've got to accept they are right unless you can prove they are wrong ... The commander in the field is always right. This is not just Somalia. This is also every organization."

A jaded psychiatrist takes on a pro bono case that puts his professionalism to the ultimate test in director Jonas Pate's knowing exposé of the "other" Hollywood. Between sorting through the insecurities of a fading film starlet (Saffron Burrows), a struggling writer (Mark Webber), and an obsessive-compulsive talent agent (Dallas Roberts), A-list psychiatrist Henry Carter (Kevin Spacey) barely has the time to deal with his own problems. Suddenly, into the middle of Henry's malaise wanders a troubled teen who's never even set foot in the Hollywood Hills. This is Henry's first pro bono client, and considering his current state, he's not sure that now is the best time to be taking on more work. While Henry is jaded by Hollywood, his newest patient is obsessed with it. Faced with the challenge of helping a young girl through a particularly difficult time in her life, Henry does his best to remain professional despite harboring some rather serious misgivings during their first few sessions. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Hmm, I just posted an article and it didn't take for some reason I have a blank article! Never had that happen before! So I guess I'll write it again!
This morning at one of my many snack times I wanted a muffin for some reason. I looked in the pantry and found a strawberry muffin mix small package. It said it made 5 muffins which didn't seem like it would be worth turning the oven on for.
So I mixed it up with the 1/2 cup of milk it called for and then I thought; Why not add some healthy oats to it? So I added 1 cup of quick cooking oats to the batter. I sprayed a skillet with nonstick cooking spray and put in some dollops of batter. They fried up quite nicely like mini pancakes.
The taste was excellent and I didn't heat the whole house up with a 350 degree oven for a half an hour! Win win situation since they tasted great!
Have you ever used a muffin mix to make pancakes?

MARQUEZ should come out GUNS blazing
He and Mayweather are both great counterpunchers, but Marquez is the much smaller fighter so he can't expect to deal out as much damage as Mayweather can using that style.
He should come out, face first, and throw as many body shots as he can, and bring it up stairs when Mayweather goes on the offensive. I think it's really his only chance to get a decision.
And on a side note, i was watching Marquez-Jaca recently and the broadcast team seemed pretty sure that Marquez was never gonna make it back to where he was when he drew with Pacquiao. Isnt it astonishing that Marquez has come back this far?

If Marquez opens up, it will make the fight a lot easier for Floyd. Marquez's best chance is too be as tactical and strategical with his offense and counter punching as possible.
If he comes out agressibly, Floyd will just take advantage of any opening Marquez gives him.

Ricky Hatton did pretty good coming out guns blazing for the first 6 rounds and then Floyd made a huge comeback adjusting to his style for the rest of the fight with a TKO in 10. I would say this style could probably work for someone like Say Miguel Cotto, Antonio Margreto, and especially Paul the punisher Williams; but not for JMM. He needs to fight a smart tactical fight with alittle bit of aggression thrown in with his precision counter punching. He needs to mix it up and pick his spots and adjust to what Floyd comes at him with. Which JMM is a really really smart fighter so any weakness that Floyd does shows, best believe Dinamita will make him pay for it. Those I think are the keys for JMM pulling a major upset.

I think JMM needs to make Floyd come to him, counter and defend early on, keeping plenty of gas in the tank for later. When Mayweather starts adapting mid-fight, change up the style a little and concentrate on offense more. IMO, Marquez needs to keep his composure, not go all out from the opening bell, because if Floyd adapts to JMM's offense early on, what does JMM have left?

The Daily Startup: U.S. Venture Investment Falls in First Quarter
Top stories in today's VentureWire:
U.S. venture capital investment has fallen for three straight quarters and is now at the lowest level since the third quarter of 2010, reflecting the slow pace of venture fundraising and exits. First-quarter data from Dow Jones VentureSource also show that business services are in, while seed-stage investing is falling out of favor. Semiconductor investment is barely registering. Investors committed $6.36 billion in 752 financings for U.S.-based companies in the first quarter of this year, according to data from VentureSource, which is owned by Venture Capital Dispatch publisher Dow Jones.
Verivo Software has raised $4 million in new funding from its prior backers to help developers build mobile business apps. Verivo's software is built for customers building enterprise applications, which need features that most consumer applications don't, including data integration and security. Verivo is one of several startups that are raising more money for tools to help businesses build apps, now that corporations are becoming big buyers of iPads.
Also in today's VentureWire, Allecra Therapeutics has secured 15 million euros from venture firms as the startup races with several other companies to develop antibiotics for Gram-negative bacterial infections that threaten many hospitalized patients…Epizyme has filed for an initial public offering after agreeing to partner with Abbott Laboratories to develop a diagnostic test for use with Epizyme's most-advanced product candidate, a therapy for mixed lineage leukemia…and Guavus, which makes software to deal with massive data sets produced by telecommunications networks, has raised $9 million from the venture arm of Goldman Sachs Group and Asia-focused firm TransLink Capital.
