Fire Lane is manipulator and a basher !!!
Basher is an individual, either acting alone or on behalf of someone else, who attempts to devalue a stock by spreading false or exaggerated claims against a public company.
This is an illegal activity that can carry significant legal repercussions.
In these two sentences there are some words that you should remember :
DEVALUE , FALSE CLAIMS and ILLEGAL ACTIVITY!!!
Everything that Fire Lane says or write is one lie after another!
Try to avoid Fire Lane and his lies,dont be duped by such pump and dump scams.
Fire Lane is accusing other people that they are criminals,liars and that everything is a scam. It is obvious that Fire Lane is spreading false informations and you shouldnt believe in any word that he wrote.

This book was written for my son, age 12 at the time, who had asked if I could write a sequel to the original L. Frank Baum book. It starts with Dorothy once again returning to Oz and meeting up again with her old friends. Many new characters are introduced as Dorothy embarks on her new series of adventures. The story borders on the mystical as discussions range from the reality of Oz to the afterlife to meeting with long dead presidents and UFO occupents who offer… (more)
There are a total of 40 Oz books considered to be "canon."
L.Frank Baum wrote the first 14 of them.

At 77 I am retired, but like to write as a hobby. This started when my oldest son was about 12. He loved The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and since I used to make up stories for the kids at bedtime, he asked if I could make up an Oz story. I had read somewhere that if you want to write you should set aside some time each day - preferably the same time if possible, and write even if you don't feel like it or nothing comes to mind. It can be a third of a page, a half a page or several pages, but at least make the effort. Sure enough it worked for me. I'd get up a little earlier each day than I used to and write for 1/2 hour before going to work at the phone company.
A year later I had about 400 pages, and called the story "Dorothy's Mystical Adventures in Oz." I self published the book as a Print on Demand book (POD) through Xlibris Publishing. Later when Amazon got started and created the Kindle I published it there. After that I joined forces with a long time Oz author, Chris Dulabone, and we wrote two books together: first, "The Forest Monster of Oz" then "Abducted to Oz." The Magic Sneakers which I wrote alone like the first book is not an Oz book, but I tried to capture the same whimsical fantasy syle. I have also writen some short mataphysical stories such as "I Married a Ghost" and "The Firepeople" but, but none published so far. I would appreciate any comments on my stories to see if I should continue to try to write. I do feel that they are quite visual and could be adopted to film or animation projects - even comic books.

Japanese Man Set to Be Certified as World's Oldest
A 111-year-old Japanese man is likely to be certified as the oldest living man in the world after Alexander Imich, the previous record holder, died Sunday in New York.
Mr. Imich, born on Feb. 4, 1903, was named the world's oldest living man by the Guinness Book of World Records on May 8. Saitama Prefecture resident Sakari Momoi was born a day after Mr. Imich.
The Guinness Book of World Records released a statement saying it is "investigating potential successors for the oldest man title."
According to an official at Saitama Prefecture's health and welfare bureau, Mr. Momoi has been living in a nursing home-style hospital in Tokyo and is in good health. The former teacher eats three meals a day and is in good shape. He has some hearing issues, but can communicate by writing, the official said.
Mr. Momoi was nine when the Titanic sank, 15 when World War I ended, 20 at the time of the Great Kanto Earthquake, and 61 when Tokyo hosted its first Summer Olympic Games. He was born the same year the Wright brothers successfully flew their first powered flight and 66 when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon.
The oldest person in the world is 116-year-old Misao Okawa, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Ms. Okawa was born on March 5, 1898 in Osaka.

Going Back
Over a year ago
Right now I'm 15, almost 16, and a vegan. However, I'm questioning whether I should go back to being vegetarian. I've noticed it taking financial toll on my parents always having to by different types of food for me. The other day we had to go to a different fast food restaurant just for me and then to another for everyone else. So should I go to just being vegetarian, for now?
Please log in to reply.

Being part of a mixed-diet family means having to make sacrifices. They don't need to buy you Boca burgers or vegan ice cream to keep you fed. Canned and frozen foods are generally cheaper if they are whole foods. Make enough rice to last 3-5 days and customize meals to use it. Learn how to use a slow cooker if you have one (hint: it's really easy.) Your parents will notice your perseverance in the grocery bill, even if it's for a week. Salads, rice, beans, and frozen foods will be your allies. Opt out of fast food or eat a snack before your family heads out to save your health and their money.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Being vegan can be super cheap! Check out this blog post for help: http://www.peta2.com/blog/listen-up-veganism-is-cheap/. 🙂 Also–almost every restaurant has vegan options: http://www.peta2.com/lifestyle/restaurants/.

After talking to my bank spending my time to figure it out they said it was not the bank it was on the other end. I talked to hosted numbers several times and they denied any problems, come to find out there was a glitch in their software that caused the problem. There was no apology just that I owed all of the charges that had accumulated due to monthly charges plus debit fees amounting to 3 times my monthly charge. So I have to pay for their mistake just to due business with them. I reluctantly did pay the fees.
Just recently I decided to end the service, their back to their old games of you owe them. I cancelled my service two days before my ending billing date and they closed my account right there, no service available for that next month, now they say the actual service date is before that date so I owe them my monthly fee plus now debit fees from trying to debit my account which they have been blocked from. They want me to pay for service in which they do not intend to provide.
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY ! They are not a ethical company to do business with. they have one of the worst customer service departments I have ever dealt with. TRULY SUCCESSFUL companies value their customers, these guys have no clue.

Firstly, I can't be sure it is this plugin with the fault, however the issue only occured after installing the plugin yesterday. Also, I have disabled this plugin only (leaving others enabled) and the issue has gone away... for now...
While I am monitoring I just wanted to put this out there to see if anyone else is experiencing the issue?
URL friv.webeden.co.uk has been injected top left hand side of each page.
Looking at a google search its happening to a lot of sites
Again I'm not blaming this plugin as I have no proof its what caused it.

Man admits to Vermont Sex Offender Registry offenseJuly 13,2013BENNINGTON A local man faces up to five years in prison after pleading guilty Friday to failing to comply with the sex offender registry for more than five consecutive days between June 2012 and January 2013.
Douglas C. Kramer, 20, of Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court in January on two felony counts of failing to comply with the sex offender registry for longer than five days. The second charge was modified to note that Kramer had been convicted of failing to comply with the registry before in May 2012.
In an affidavit, Detective Anthony Silvestro of the Bennington Police Department said Kramer had been convicted of lewd and lascivious conduct in 2005. The conviction requires Kramer to be registered as a sex offender in Vermont.
According to Silvestro, Kramer was in violation of the registrys conditions at the time he began his investigation in January because he had not returned a letter confirming his address to the registrys office. The letter Kramer had not returned was sent to him at the end of August 2012.
Silvestro said when he spoke to Kramer in January, Kramer lied about where he was living. According to the affidavit, Silvestro learned that Kramer was staying in a School Street apartment, as he claimed, but in a different apartment than the one he reported to Silvestro.
When Kramer changed his plea Friday in Bennington criminal court, there was no sentencing agreement in place. He could be sentenced to up to five years in prison on the charge.
As part of the agreement, the state agreed to dismiss the second charge against Kramer.MORE IN This Just InColleges merger

I spent months on the phone with these people. I got so tired of hearing, "Is you modem plugged in" in a language barely discernable.
I paid $600 for the system and $60 a month for it. Everytime my system failed I would call and they would run me through multiple troubleshooting exercises and never resolved the issues.
I was even advised by their tech support people that my computer had a virus and that my McAfee protection was not sufficient to pick up the virus and to purchase Norton's, which I did.
When I called back, I was put on hold so many times and transferred and given credit for a few weeks service. I spent nearly six months of my life before I just gave up.
I literally felt like blowing someone's head off due to this profound stress. My area finally acquired DSL and without hesitation I signed up. Direcway held me fast to my contract agreement for another 9 months. After I continued paying for a service I was not using and successfully using my DSL, I realized how I had totally been ripped off from day one.
I will never purchase another product by the Direcway company or the Hughes network. I even wrote letter to many individuals as Direcway and Hughes Corporation and never received response.
Like others of you, I have a useless piece of junk in my yard that fuels my fire everytime I have to mow around it.

AUSTIN, Texas The mayor of Austin is declaring a local state of disaster after flooding and heavy storms damaged hundreds of homes in Central Texas.
Lee Leffingwell sent a letter to Texas Gov. Rick Perry saying a "critical need" existed for state and federal help.
The Austin American-Statesman reports (http://bit.ly/1ed07RC ) that the local city council is also considering waiving permit and development fees for homeowners dealing with flooding.
Four people died in the flooding caused by heavy rains Wednesday and Thursday that dumped up to 13 inches in the region.

I don't think it's just his back 4, it's all 10 in front of him... I don't know why they bother turning up! You have to give credit to the Derby fans though... pretty much a full-house every home game - that's dedication for you

Mind you did you see the Derby fans streaming out at 0-3? Last time I saw that kind of devotion it was the Gooners leaving the Lane at 3-0!! Or was it the Chavskis emptying their end at Wembley before the final whistle?
In defence of Derby they simply were not prepared for life in the Prem from day one were they? I reckon promoted teams have only 2 options to them....buy big early on (dont wait for the Jan window) or have a manager who doesnt know how to lose. The poor Rams didnt know what hit them when they tried it on with their championship squad and a manager who was used to a lower level. Jewell will bring them back up at some point and then they will stay (like Wigan) for a lot longer.

Posted on 04/13/2013 2:18:30 PM PDT by AuntB
Representative Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) said at a Thursday press conference that House Republicans will rise up against GOP leadership if House Speaker John Boehner tries to rush any immigration reform bill through his chamber of Congress.
There would be a revolt among Republicans if Boehner abandoned regular order on this issue, Rohrabacher said in response to a question from Breitbart News at the presser.
According to a recent Politico report, Boehner is seriously considering abandoning regular order to rush through immigration reform. Regular orders is the process by which a bill is supposed to come up through the respective committees of jurisdiction and allow members of those committees to offer amendments, an open and transparent process that then is supposed to continue on the House floor.
The GOP is also mulling skipping the committee process and instead having lengthy discussions among Republicans to work out the legislations kinks, Politicos Jake Sherman wrote in the report. This would allow leading conservatives who are crafting the deal with Democrats to explain the policy. That seems to be the preferred path, according to conversations with several GOP aides.
If Boehner follows this strategy, he would be abandoning one of the key promises he made to get re-elected as Speaker just a few months ago while several conservative members tried to unseat him. At the time, he guaranteed he would return the House to regular order on all legislation, a promise that ended up helping him turn some who had planned to oppose his re-election as Speaker back into supporters.
In the end, only 12 of the 17 members needed to derail his reelection did not vote for Boehner, allowing him to squeak by in his re-election.
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
Why wait??? Throw him out now!
NONE of the pussies in DC have the stones to stand up to a stiff wind, let alone that drunk Boehner or (gasp) Obammy!
The whole lot of them can take a long walk off a short pier...they are ALL talk ALL the time, and not a word of truth among the lot of them! (spit!)
They will take it and like it.
If they don't "revolt" over the 2nd amendment, there's nothing that can wake them up.
These fools will sit on their hands like they usually do and they will do nothing, nothing at all, aren't these the same damn fools who when they had the chance earlier this year to throw boehner out they voted him back in, wow.
Why wait??? Throw him out now!
I second that. I'm sure we can get along without self-appointed Grand Duke Boehner a lot better than he can get along without us.
Boehner HAS BEEN BOUGHT. One dinner and a boat ride is all it took.
Can the majority leader of the house be impeached ?
Giving everyone a right to vote creates a Democracy, and a political class which will pander to the parasites in exchange for power.
The Founders were brilliant men who understood history and the mistakes made by previous civilizations, mistakes which led to their demise.
I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide. It is in vain to say that democracy is less vain, less proud, less selfish, less ambitious, or less avaricious than aristocracy or monarchy. It is not true, in fact, and nowhere appears in history. Those passions are the same in all men, under all forms of simple government, and when unchecked, produce the same effects of fraud, violence, and cruelty. When clear prospects are opened before vanity, pride, avarice, or ambition, for their easy gratification, it is hard for the most considerate philosophers and the most conscientious moralists to resist the temptation. Individuals have conquered themselves. Nations and large bodies of men, never. John Adams, letter to John Taylor (15 April 1814).
Democracy will prevail when men believe the vote of Judas as good as that of Jesus Christ.
Attributed to Thomas Carlyle "The Scholar in a Republic", centennial anniversary address to Phi Beta Kappa of Harvard College, Cambridge, Massachusetts (June 30, 1881). Reported in Carlos Martyn and Wendell Phillips, The Agitator (1890), p. 581. Reported as unverified in Respectfully Quoted: A Dictionary of Quotations (1989).
Here's a video for all the RINO's ... 2014 midterms will be the first election I've sat out since the 1970's
It's a constitutional office.
Boehner can be swept out on a single vote ~ quite comparable to a vote of confidence in a parliamentary system only we don't call it that.
Henry Clay had his terms cut short twice, Andrew Stephenson was cut short, MIchael Kerr, Henry Rainey, Joseph Byrns, William Bankhead, and even Sam Rayburn were cut short before the end of their terms.
I suppose some of this was because of death or disability. But there's nothing to stop the majority party from withdrawing its support and bringing down a Speaker.
Bonehead is part of that movement to destroy America.
Impeachment never occurs against House members, Speaker or not.
It occurs against executive branch members and federal judges.
In the House, members CAN be expelled from the House and various lesser punishments such as a reprimand.
Leadership has to run for its positions and can be voted out just as they were voted in. But another member has to be voted into the position instead. They only stand for leadership elections at certain times, though, not ALL the time.
Conservative wing of the House can STFU.
If they were going to "revolt" they would have done LONG ago.
The opted to kiss ass - so keep doing it....
I think this is as good a time as any, to stage a coupe.
We need to replace Boehner.
Now. We need a new leader.
They sound more like Obama vs Iran...
Ok guys... one more time... Don't do it again... or else!
Ok... that was it... I'm not taking anymore...
Now Stop it!... U better listen to me... I mean it!
Republican party is DEAD!!!!
and the ONLY PEOPLE WHO KNOW IT are the Democrats!
More theatre for those who're still deluding themselves the Republicans are on their side.
LOL, I had to do a double take. Where you said "impeached," I originally thought you said another word, that also begins with the letters "I-m-p". Maybe that is what people would call a Freudian slip.
Everything has to be rushed through Congress before Americans wake up and figure out that they are being shafted by their public servants. Look at how long it took for them to figure out they really are going to get the shaft through ObamaCare. We're all going to feel like we've been through a "gay marriage" honeymoon night once Barry's Commie "Care" gets rolling.
Here's the word from a member of the base to the GOP members in the House. The existence of the GOP is on the razor's edge. All its going to take is one more act of betrayal. So, if you want to protect your crummy little careers, remove Boehner as Speaker. He's a failure and a loser. He's dragging you down.
Removing Boehner and replacing him with a principled constitutionalist, you'll save your careers, you'll save your party and you'll actually take a step in saving the country.
Throw Boehner out NOW. There's no time to lose.
How did Rohrabacher vote in the election for Speaker? Is he only recognizing a problem now? Or only now willing to do something? Doesn't matter, better late than never.
Send the Weeper home to cry.
I'll believe it when I see it.
And I doubt I will ever see it.
The last "revolt" in November 2012 didn't go to well.
They're still waiting to pick a "battle" to fight. LOL!
You got that right. The entire RNC establishment has death wish.
And he can do it.
He just uses 100% Democrat votes and a few Republicans and it's a done deal.
"Why wait??? Throw him out now!"
Hear hear...
Sucks, doesn't it. Boehner's doing to his peers what politicians do to their constituents - and they don't like it. Imagine how we feel, guys? Maybe they'll get as fed up as the voters are.
The "regular orders" process has always been a problem for legislation that contains the word "comprehensive" in its title. "Comprehensive" means the bill is loaded with all kinds of repugnant crap provisions that would NEVER pass on their own merit, and so it's best to bury them in one gigantic "comprehensive" bill.
What is this, "Revolt" #273?? The Republicans will do what they do best: bend over and take it.
At this point I do not believe anything any of these "politicians say about anything
Empty rhetoric. Bawlin' Boehner knows that the "conservatives" won't do anything but make noise.
We are watching America being sold out by the very people charged with safegaurding our country and no one has the courage to say "enough is enough"!
The thought of what is happening to America makes me ill!
Very simple...if Gun Control or Illegal Alien Amnesty pass...I am done with the GOOP
"At this point I do not believe anything any of these politicians say about anything"
They had their chance, but they voted the POS back in. At least with the likes of Pe-lousy, what you see is what you get.
I'd prefer an SUV.
Haha sorry "coup".
That said, let me explain that is a symbolic move. I read what you quoted and then temporarily worried, about what you seemed to have quoted me on.
Turns out to be ok, but still just making sure nobody confuses what I said. :)
Strictly a figure of speech.
There's got to be some gay pictures of him somewhere. Or maybe he has a few illegitimate kids. Maybe he has "mistresses" who've had abortions. Something is making him cower and cry.
boner is a f-ing collaborator. i don't care what anyone says. i base it on past performance.
[snip]"We look to our GOP leaders, just as the Cherokee looked to Ross, and what do we find? Feckless crybabies like John Boehner and the squishy moderate Mitch McConnell, who prop up the democrats more often than not. "
I should have asked, "How is the Majority Leader of the House removed from office..."
Can they please revolt enough to oust His Spinelessness from the Speaker seat?
Communists, Socialists and Labor Unions make "bargains," but never hold up their end of the agreed to bargain.
Obama loves to make bargains - - - .
Br'er Fox Obama, he love to put Bargain Tarbaby in Bypass Shortcut Alley of Regular Order Congressional Road.
Br'er Rabbit Boehner, he cry a lot, but he do love to whup dat Tarbaby named Bargain up side his haid!
Yazzur, Yazzur. Dat Boehner sho' is stupid! He never learn!
Except they're all prostitutes. Their jobs are more important than the country.
They'll still be in office. Elections happen on a fixed schedule so they don't face the oblivion promised in a true parlematary system ~ they get their salary, same committee assignments and all that. Only thing is the Speaker and his cronies get booted. But they're still in Congress.

A variety of minimally invasive techniques have been investigated over the years as a treatment of low back pain related to disc disease. Techniques can be broadly divided into those that are designed to remove or ablate disc material which results in the decompression of the disc [e.g. laser disc decompression and radiofrequency coblation (nucleoplasty)] or those that are designed to alter the biomechanics of the disc annulus. [e.g., intradiscal electrothermal annuloplasty (IDET procedure) and the percutaneous intradiscal radiofrequency thermocoagulation (PIRFT)]. It should be noted that three of these procedures use radiofrequency energy - disc nucleoplasty, IDET, and PIRFT - but apply the energy in distinctly different ways such that the procedures are unique.
The DISC nucleoplasty™ procedure uses bipolar radiofrequency energy in a process referred to as coblation technology. The technique consists of small, multiple electrodes that emit a fraction of the energy required by traditional radiofrequency energy systems. The result is that a portion of nucleus tissue is ablated not with heat, but with a low-temperature plasma field of ionized particles. These particles have sufficient energy to break organic molecular bonds within tissue, creating small channels in the disc. The proposed advantage of this coblation technology is that the procedure provides for a controlled and highly localized ablation, resulting in minimal damage to surrounding tissue.
For laser disc decompression/discectomy a needle or catheter is inserted into the disc nucleus under fluoroscopic guidance, and a laser beam is directed through it to vaporize tissue. A variety of different lasers have been investigated for laser disc decompression, including YAG, KTP, holmium, argon, and carbon dioxide lasers. Due to differences in absorption, the energy requirements and the rate of application differ among the lasers. In addition, it is unknown how much disc material must be removed to achieve decompression. Therefore, protocols vary according to the length of treatment, but typically the laser is activated for brief periods only.
Examples of devices used for percutaneous disc decompression by laser or radiofrequency are: ArthroCare® Orthopedic Electrosurgery System, Quanta System LITHO Laser System, Radionics RF Disc Catheter Electrode System®, YAG Laser System. and the RevoLix Duo Laser System.
Techniques that alter the biomechanics of the disc annulus (IDET and PIRFT) are addressed in a separate policy.
Disc decompression and treatment of associated low back pain using localized, radiofrequency energy (disc nucleoplasty) or laser energy are considered investigational.

Percutaneous disc decompression and treatment of associated low back pain using low-temperature, localized, radiofrequency is relatively new technology, with minimal published literature and no controlled trials.
The American Pain Society reported in the 2013 clinical practice guidelines on nonsurgical interventions for low back pain, stating that there is poor evidence from randomized trials due to conflicting trials, sparse and lower quality data, or no randomized trials to reliably evaluate a number of interventions including coblation.

Hi guys
Not sure what I should go for as a local-host. I'm experienced in theme development so far have been doing it all "live".
What is the best set-up to have so that I can have a version of WordPress local on my PC (Windows 7 x64) so that I can develop themes locally?
Many thanks

I disagree with a lot of people
It is tough, its finding people with SKILL is the problem
Everyone just wants 3 extra people know matter who they are, then 4th set comes NO LIVES LEFT, game over and you wonder why?
Everyone is cocky, no one is going to tell you they suck at Halo if they want to join your lobby or get you to join there's, the it took me twice to do Endure
First time, we lost last circle on 4th set
Second time, we won with like 15 lives to spare, we had 700,000 points and I had 400,000 of them, and I saw everyone playing and shooting, with the lowest person having like 40,000 I call that lucky, you can find alot of people on this forum how have probably done Endure like four times now, its about finding the right people to for lack of a better term "endure" the pain of going through that many hard enemies

SEO: Let's Talk About Google AdWords
Google AdWords is one the most valuable tools available when executing a successful digital marketing campaign. As many people already know, Google is the largest search engine on the Internet and they don't have any major competitors. When people need to search for something on the Internet, they go to Google. Because of this, everyone advertising on the Internet should be integrating Google AdWords into their digital marketing campaigns.
Three Keys To a Successful Google AdWords Campaign
The Keywords:
Selecting the right keywords for your veterinary AdWords campaign will set the foundation for your success. These keywords will help you target people who search for exact or similar keywords that match your AdWords campaign. There is a variety of free and paid keyword platforms available on the Internet and even AdWords offers keyword assistance but the most valuable tool in keyword selection is you.
Your Beyond Indigo SEO Account Manager will compile a list of every possible keyword that relates to your veterinary clinic/hospital and current campaign. Once we have this list completed, we can implement it into AdWords campaign platform and adjust the list as your campaign progresses.
The Offer:
An AdWords campaign can have success with just your business information but you are way more likely to get click-throughs if we include an enticing offer in your ad. The offer can be as simple as 10% off, freebies or new customer promotions but the offer is what lures in the search engine users.
An ad on AdWords is almost guaranteed to appear at the top of the page (more about that in The Budget) but there is still room for competition to steal your clicks. The only way to guarantee a good clickthrough rate (CTR) is to get the best position on Google search results with the best offer and good quality score. So let us consider adding an offer that your competitors can't or won't and then use that to your advantage.
The Budget:
The budget is the most important and most often overlooked aspect of an AdWords campaign. If you're paying too much for your clicks, you're wasting money. If you're not paying enough for clicks, you're losing clicks and ranking position. An AdWords expert can clearly identify your market and determine the best possible rate. If you're not an expert, then you need to work out some trial and error until you get the right budget. Your Beyond Indigo SEO Account Manager will keep close eye on the campaign to ensure you are getting clicks and not overspending.
A rule of thumb is to pay in the top 20% of your market for clicks but not in the top 5%. If you stick to this, you will get a good combination of value and clicks.
If you'd like to learn more about how Google AdWords can impact your site's SEO, please let us know.
The Top 5 of 2015
2015 was an amazing year for the Beyond Indigo team. We have grown and connected in ways most wouldn't think possible for a virtual company. We have expanded our services and redefined how we approach the digital marketplace.
Like many of you, over the past few weeks we have been looking at what we have done well over the past year and where we would like our company to go in the year ahead. Part of this process, of course, was analyzing our own Google Analytics reports, and (as always) we were fascinated to see what content has resonated with you.
In the spirit of discovery and sharing, we offer you Beyond Indigo's Top 5 Blogs of 2015. After all, who doesn't love a good end-of-year list!
Drum Roll, Please!
While there is certainly no place like home, it's always exciting to see where the Web will take us. For thousands of you, your Internet adventures brought you to our blog. Better still? You kept coming back. So, without further ado….
Before the Scroll? Not With Today's Modern Website Design
When it comes to website design, you've probably heard that, "all the important stuff should be before the scroll!"
But not any longer!
The prevalence of mobile devices has changed the way we use websites. Who among us hasn't gotten cramps in our thumbs from too much texting, gaming, or simple scrolling on our phone? Because we've all become accustomed to mobile device views, big changes are happening in website design. Read more….
DIY: Unique Social Media Content for Veterinary Practices
Social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter, are fueled by user content. Individuals, organizations, politicos, and businesses alike post countless photos, articles and blogs, links, and videos to their pages every day. But what separates good posts from the bad and the ugly?
As you may have experienced yourself, there is a lot of "sharing" that occurs on social media sites. Many social media users regularly share or retweet posts made by fellow users as the staple of their posted content. Continue Reading….
Introducing Content Blocks: Content Tuned for the Modern Web
This year, Beyond Indigo moved from pages to content blocks as the basic units of website content. But what the heck is a content block, and how is it different from a page? Pages are a simple concept to understand, so why did we feel it was important to replace them with this new bit of jargon? Read On!
Responsive Website Design and the Future of Search
In the ever-changing world of technology it can be easy to get lost. We get it; it can be overwhelming to keep up with how much, and how quickly, things are moving. There is one refrain that can make it all a little bit easier to understand, though: Mobile is the future.
More than ever before, numerous industries are catering to mobile technologies, and soon it will become the dominant platform of information technology – and our phones are only the beginning. Keep Reading…
The Background on Video Backgrounds
The modern web's focus on simplicity and flexibility lends itself to big, bold imagery and typography. You may have noticed a trend toward large, photographic background images on new websites. These offer a captivating visual experience and establish a mood while communicating useful information. Used properly, large background images are more than just decorative fluff.
Now there's a new tool in the web marketing kit, made possible by faster internet connections and more capable devices—video backgrounds on web pages, rather than static images. I Want to Read It!
We hope you've enjoyed this sneak peek behind the Beyond Indigo scenes and maybe even found a new favorite blog to tell your colleagues about. We look forward to a full year in 2016, and hope that you will be a part of our success!
Bridging the Digital Divide in Veterinary Marketing
Despite the global adoption of the digital marketplace, most American veterinarians are reluctant to approach digital marketing. There are a variety of reasons for this reality, including time, knowledge and understanding, the rapid pace of change in the digital world, and an overall lack of comfort with technology. But what about veterinarians in other countries? Do they have the same struggles as vet practices in the United States?
After having spoken in Australia to both Australian and New Zealand veterinarians, as well as to vets in Canada and the UK, I can say with confidence that yes; the industry's struggle with digital marketing is an international reality.
While the overall frustration with marketing is widespread, veterinarians in each country have their own strengths and weakness. For example, in Australia, pet owners and their veterinarians have embraced the use of texting much more rapidly than Americans. England, Canada, and Australia are behind the curve in the practice of online reputation management (ORM) when compared to veterinary hospitals in the USA. However, we in the US are way behind the eight ball when it comes to adapting to cloud based technologies, such as practice management software; which, in many cases, can help to automate some aspects of marketing.
When it comes to marketing, some things also remain the same, though. If I was blindfolded and dropped into a convention hall in anyone of those countries, I would be hard pressed to know where I was in based on the questions people asked, such as:
- Does marketing work?
- What has changed and how do I know it has changed?
- Why does it seem so expensive?
- Why do I need a website, Facebook, online review management, and search engine optimization?
- Where can I find announcements from Google when they are going to make a change? (FYI: Google doesn't generally make announcements when they make a change.)
- Who do I trust to manage my marketing?
- Can someone manage my business's marketing internally?
- What do you mean I can't copy pictures off of Google and use them in my marketing?
The universal truth that I have experienced, is that people in all countries want to learn. One of my professional joys is helping to empower individuals when it comes to understanding how and why veterinary marketing works. With that understanding comes the ah-ha! moment; when the light bulb of understanding burns bright and the elements of the marketing ecosystem fall into place, making a once-struggling practice come to life.
That understanding is one of our chief goals at Beyond Indigo.
DIY: Unique Social Media Content for Veterinary Practices
Social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter, are fueled by user content. Individuals, organizations, politicos, and businesses alike post countless photos, articles and blogs, links, and videos to their pages every day. But what separates good posts from the bad and the ugly?
As you may have experienced yourself, there is a lot of "sharing" that occurs on social media sites. Many social media users regularly share or retweet posts made by fellow users as the staple of their posted content. However, others are content creators, meaning they are creating and posting original content that is unique to their lives, businesses, platforms, etc.. And, while there is nothing wrong, per se, with sharing the occasional dog meme or kitten video with your fans and followers, chances are they would rather see unique and original content coming across their news feed than a rehash of the same ol' stuff over and over again.
What Is Unique Content and Why Is It Important for My Business?
Unique content is exactly what you'd think – content you create and share on social media. This content is particular to your brand because it comes directly from your business, making it uniquely yours.
There are clear benefits to creating original content for your business's social media, insofar that it is an opportunity to:
- Build stronger and more meaningful customer relationships
- Cultivate an online community
- Educate and empower your clients
- Highlight your veterinary expertise
- Boost your site's web traffic and SEO standing
Since digital marketing is an essential piece of today's successful veterinary marketing, it's necessary to prioritize and invest in social media, and that includes making the creation of unique content a priority, too. If you create exceptional content, it will be your posts, photos, and videos that people are engaging with and sharing, not other businesses'.
What Unique Content Does My Veterinary Practice Have to Offer?
Veterinarians have a definite advantage when it comes to creating unique, in-house content for social media sharing because, let's face it, the Internet loves animals. While businesses in less interesting industries might have difficulty generating something in-house that is engaging and "shareworthy," veterinarians have seemingly endless opportunities for producing unique content.
Between the adorable pets, the multi-faceted nature of veterinary practices, and the extraordinary cases that come through your practice's doors, there's rarely a dull moment in veterinary medicine. Capture those moments, and you will undoubtedly capture the hearts, minds, and attention of your fans and their friends.
10 Ideas for Unique In-House Content:
Are you ready to create in-house content but wondering where to start? Here are a few of our favorite ideas:
- How-to videos and visual tutorials present an opportunity to both educate clients and highlight your knowledge and expertise. Create content that teaches your clients easily conveyable topics, like how to properly apply topical medications or how to crate train cats for transportation.
- Showcase your services with photos and videos of your veterinary care in action. This is a great opportunity to educate clients (and potential clients!) on what you do, why you do it, and how you do it.
- Introduce your staff to your followers! Share pictures or portraits, concise biographies, or interesting interviews – even if clients have met your veterinary team, everyone loves to find out something new about a familiar face.
- Blogs or articles written by staff can be both illuminating and fun for your clients. Between educational, medical, and lifestyle topics for pet owners, you have an endless variety of potential blogging material.
- Present your clients' pets to social media! Snap a photo (with the client's permission) to share with your followers. Cute animal photos are the low-hanging fruit everyone loves to consume, and sharing a client's pet can promote client loyalty.
- Case of the Week: tell your followers about a particular pet you treated that week by providing a narrative that details their pathway to health. Again, as with all content that involves a client and his/her pet, make sure to get permission before sharing anything online.
- Images from boarding, pet daycare, or behavioral training are not only an easy way to feature these services, but they also let pet owners know you're paying special attention to their furry family.
- Behind-the-scenes photos from inside your practice are a great way to show your business's light-hearted side. From office birthdays and potlucks, to day-to-day silliness, these informal posts let your clients know your staff on a more personal level.
- Similarly, photos from charity involvement or community events demonstrate that your staff's good-nature goes beyond veterinary work.
- Trivia about pet care, fun facts, and tidbits of lesser-known info
If you're feeling the task of content generation might be an undertaking too heavy for one person to shoulder, don't hesitate to reach out to other staff members in your practice for help; having a collaborative input can really enhance content. Crafting content should be fun, not a chore, so rallying coworkers to help with content creation will likely be a snap.
We hope that you're feeling motivated to produce your own unique, in-house social media content, but before you roll up your sleeves and get to work, don't forget: if the content is worth creating, then it's worth creating well. If you have questions or would like a professional consultation on how to optimize your social marketing strategy, please don't hesitate to contact our staff.
Go Simple: Get a Plan: Your Digital Marketing Ecosystem
Welcome to 2015. For those of us that grew up with the Back to the Future franchise, we know this is the year that Doc and Marty arrive in the future (seriously, where are the hoverboards!?!); but what about your veterinary practice? Has it arrived in the future, or is it still stuck in 1985?
Just as the diagnostic and surgical tools of the veterinary trade have evolved in the past 30 years, so have the tools you need to successfully market your practice. The once heavily-relied upon Yellow Pages are now lining bird cages across America and, while still necessary, even a stand-alone website isn't likely to get your practice found in today's increasingly social media-savvy world.
So how do you grow your veterinary practice in the twenty-first century? It's simple. Sow the seeds for a digital marketing ecosystem.
Helping You Cross the Digital Divide: Nancy Dewitz
This past fall, Beyond Indigo welcomed veterinary technology consultant Nancy Dewitz to the freshly-created position of Marketing and Technology Consultant. And while we know that some of you have had the pleasure of meeting and working with Nancy already, we wanted to take the opportunity to introduce her to those of you who haven't.
Much as we did with our Creative Director, Mark Clifton, BI's intrepid blogger has taken a moment to talk with Nancy about what brings her to Beyond Indigo, and what goals she has for her work with both the company and you, our clients.
Meet Mark Clifton: Beyond Indigo's New Creative Director
This past October, Beyond Indigo brought on Mark Clifton as the company's Creative Director. This freshly-minted position was created in anticipation of some exciting changes coming to Beyond Indigo in 2015.
While you'll have to wait a bit longer to find out about what is in store for our clients in the coming year, we are excited to introduce you to Mark and showcase the amazing talent he brings to Beyond Indigo's table. Our blogger-in-chief, Kate Matthews, was able to arrange a little tête-à-tête with Mark and curate the conversation into this week's post.
So, without further ado, we are pleased to introduce Mark Clifton…
Three Simple Thanksgiving Marketing Ideas For Your Veterinary Practice
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, now is an ideal time to kickoff a few simple marketing ideas to engage your clients and community in a fun and meaningful way. While your veterinary practice likely has several key business-focused messages to get across this fall, it's important to ensure your overall marketing mix includes messaging that establishes your practice as accessible, relatable, and connected with its clientele.
Thankfully, this season is brimming with opportunity for this type of marketing. Many of us take time during Thanksgiving to count our blessings, and businesses should be no exception to this trend. After all, what better way to attract customers than to let them know that their business is appreciated?
So what can you do in the following weeks to capture some of the free-flowing gratitude of the season? …Participate in it.
Online Reviews: Playing the Yelp Game
Online reviews impact a business' reputation, SEO, and ultimately the number of people who will use their products and services. Because veterinary practices have a higher need for trust among their clients, the stakes in having positive online reviews are even higher.
King Yelp
Yelp is the biggest of the online review websites, boasting 138 million unique visitors per month. People use the website to look up businesses from hair salons to car dealerships and any and everything in between, by reading consumer recommendations and reviews.
Because Yelp is so large, it cannot be ignored by veterinary practices wanting to attract clients from this tech-savvy generation.

I had tried delaying my feed by 6 hours. It doesn't work. The feed is delayed about 8 hours when set for 6.
I didn't try a large range delay by hour numbers to map out where the mistake is. I just wanted to get back to work.
Changing to minutes seems to have worked--e.g. 360 minutes instead of 6 hours.
