Is your address ---@ons--- ? Isaac Purser had a son Charles James Purser(39) who ran the Hope and Anchor hotel in New Street near High Street, Stourport in the 1901 census. This pub was in another part of my family in 1861. The likely (but not certain) marriage of Isaac Purser was to Maria Harris 25 Oct 1808 at Kidderminster !?
The Hartlebury chr. ones were Betsey, Charlotte, Eliza, George, my Isaac, and William. Charlotte and Betsey both married Overtons. My Isaac married Elizabeth Hinton.

What socialists?
so·cial·ism Meaning:
- a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.
- procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.

Fun tools
Mevo Demo and Live Video Secrets Training
This morning I had the opportunity to check out a brand new form of video camera called Mevo with my friend and colleague, Jeff Herring. Essentially it's like having a TV studio at your fingertips using their camera and your mobile device (as of the time of this post iPhone and iPad only so far; Android users, once again, you've got to wait your turn!).
The reason for today's demo was two-fold. First, Jeff Herring and our other buddy Mike Stewart have been telling me for the past few weeks about this exciting new game-changer camera called Mevo. Jeff wanted to show me how it works and how easy it is to set up.
Second, Jeff Herring and Mike Stewart have a Live Video Secrets training they do, which has step-by-step info and tutorials on using and profiting from Facebook Live and other live video sources for your business. They are constantly updating the course as new technologies come and go (we said buh-bye to my friend Blab this week, while Google announced Google Hangouts were also going to be replaced by something they are rolling out on YouTube soon).
With Mevo being the game-changer that it appears to be, Jeff and Mike wanted to get this new segment of training with their existing demos, screen shots, videos, and training related to Live Video. (yep – all that is an affiliate link. You guessed it!).
My Impressions of Mevo As an Interviewee:
To be clear: I was only the guest in this situation. I do not yet have my Mevo camera, but I will be getting one (you can get yours at Amazon here using my affiliate link, so I can make lots of money and continue to pay for all the food my teenager is eating these days!!).
I wish I had captured a screen shot of what I could see from my end, because it was less than exciting! LOL As the guest, I was talking via Skype video feed to Jeff. I was in my office in Knoxville and he was in his office in Atlanta. Nothing new there; that technology has been around for over a decade, along with the ability to record it.
So on my screen all I saw was what the camera from Jeff's laptop on his desk was pointed at: a bad angle looking up at his nose and ceiling beyond! Not too flattering for anyone. But he wasn't worried about that because as you can see from the screen capture above, that's not what anyone else saw other than me.
That means, Jeff was the only one with the fancy cool new camera. So he set up the camera where he wanted it, fired up the Mevo app on his phone, pictured here on the iTunes store, and hit record.
He could then easily zoom in to whatever he wanted. One option was to have just me on screen, which he had plugged in via HDMI cable from his computer to his big screen monitor. He could also be just him on screen, if he wanted to. Another option was to zoom out to include us both in the shot – like in the photo above. And finally, if there had been a third person sitting with Jeff in the same room, he could have zoomed in on the third person alone as well, and included that person in the wide shot.
NOTE: There was no one else in the room with Jeff. It was his Mevo camera set up on a tripod and being controlled from his iPhone to get all the shots in the video (available with the training here). Looking at it now, it seems like there must have been someone else doing the recording. That's the beauty of it: no extra camera operator required to get all those shots!
What I like about it is it seems very user friendly and makes your camera work go from a ho-hum static (boring) shot to TV production quality with a finger tap on your mobile device's screen.
It looks pretty slick.
Another feature, which we did not use today but I have seen used, is Mevo can directly broadcast to Facebook Live in addition to making a local recording. That's where the live TV studio part comes into play.
What I Didn't Love
What I didn't love was that as the interviewee, my audio wasn't as crisp as if I had been in the studio/Jeff's office. It was fine and more than good enough, but that is one part that wasn't TV production broadcast quality – unless you consider when TV broadcasters interview someone over Skype – then this audio was AT LEAST AS GOOD as that, if not better.
On my end I was using a better quality microphone (a Blue Yeti – there are a few higher quality versions and a few lower quality, but I use this mic for my voice over work and all my clients have been happy). I think if Jeff had plugged in some higher quality speakers than what is standard in his computer laptop, we could have made the sound quality better than good enough. However, that wasn't the purpose of today; it was to do a quick demo and show me the wonders of this new technology.
In summary, overall I think the Mevo camera is worth the $399 retail price (at Amazon, anyway). You will be able to do A LOT with the camera with you alone or with another person in the room, as well as using it for interviews with someone through your computer. Remember when the internet was new and people who jumped on it made a lot of money? Well, the same thing happened decades earlier with TV, and before that radio, and before that with movies. You know how much money there is in the broadcasting industry and online. Now, it's YOUR turn to jump in early on a technology that combines the best of both worlds: broadcasting and the internet and get your share of that delicious pie of new technology excitement and success. You can do all that very affordably from your own home office. Jump in now.
This is the sound of opportunity knocking!
Have you tried Mevo yet? Been interviewed with one? Watched one? What are your impressions? Please share below in the comments your thoughts on this new technology.
Becoming a More Awesome YOU!
Today's guest blog post comes from my friend, Nicole Dean, who at a recent keynote "double dog dared" everyone in the room to be more awesome and launched what she calls her "Awesomization Nation." I call it 30 days of awesome you! You can call it whatever you want, but I urge you to consider joining us. We officially start tomorrow but many of us have been warming up and being awesome since last week!
I Double Dog Dare You to Be Awesome!
By: Nicole Dean
Question: What is Awesomization Nation?
Answer: The Awesomization Nation is a group of awesome entrepreneurs who want to be their awesomest selves. We've got hundreds of members already, and each person in the group is posting at least 3 small awesome things they're doing each day. We encourage members to do a minimum of one thing in their business, one in their lives, and one thing to impact their world or THE world.
Question: Why NOW?
Answer: I was scheduled to give a Keynote at NAMS in March 2015 and the topic was "I Freaking Double-Dog Dare You to Be Awesome" and so the idea for the Awesomization Nation just happened. I wanted to create a movement and the amazing thing is that it's already taking on a life of its own and we haven't even officially STARTED yet.
The Awesomization Nation was supposed to start on April 1st, but the members are so eager that they're already doing awesome every day and posting about it. I'm amazed watching the group and participating in it, too. Joint Ventures are forming, connections are being made, and inspiration is flying everywhere. I honestly am blessed beyond measure that I get to be in this group of positive people.
People are hungry for an invitation to be better versions of themselves, me included. I'm just shocked at how it's taking off – and thrilled and excited, too!
Question: Will being part of Awesomization Nation help me grow my business or is this just another distraction?
Answer: Being part of the Awesomization Nation will awaken you to potential in your business and your life that you may have stopped seeing. Yes, you'll receive all kinds of valuable information and inspiration for moving your business forward. But the other important thing is that I want you to have grace to take small steps forward – as long as you ARE moving forward.
For instance, one item you do for the day may be to take 5 minutes to map out the outline of the book that you want to write. Instead of letting 6 more months go by being overwhelmed by the task, break it down and let Awesome You do one part to move that project ahead. Or perhaps an awesome task you might do one day is to schedule a coaching time to talk with Felicia about your Signature Speech™. Instead of putting it off and letting yourself be overwhelmed, take the 5 minutes to book the call, invest in yourself, and walk away ready to rock the stage. That's definitely what "Awesome You" would do. So do it!
And, to answer your question, YES, it will help you to move your business ahead. Any time you invest in taking action, you're moving in the right direction. And, these people are definitely taking action. I can't wait to see where this leads and the RESULTS that our members will get by the end.
Join us at The Awesomization Nation and become more awesome today!
Christmas Letter Template (Another Use for the Speaker One-Sheet Template)
I don't know about you, but with Thanksgiving being so close to the end of November this year, December seemed to sneak up in a hurry and now here we are less than 2 weeks until Christmas!
Much of my shopping is finished, but I still need to get things wrapped and in the mail. Speaking of getting things in the mail, this year I decided to take a break from the greeting card service I'd used for the past several years and send my greetings from home.
For years I'd done a standard Christmas letter, buying Christmas-themed paper at an office supply store (or New Year's paper depending on how late I was!), and printing them from my own ink-jet printer at home. They were fine, but lacked spark and creativity.
So this year, I went online in search of tips for writing a Christmas newsletter for my family and came across some cool-looking graphic formats online that I loved. I sat down with my blank screen in front of me, ready to model a couple of them as best I could, when I had a "DUH! – halleluiah!" moment.
I already have beautiful graphic templates I can use for my Christmas newsletter! So I opened one of my Speaker One-Sheet Templates, chose a fun font (which took longer than anything because I have thousands of fonts and LOVE them!), and within an hour had the whole thing written, saved, and sent off to my local print shop to print black and white copies. For a grand total of $5 I had them ready to go! I'll pop them in the envelope with one of the photo cards from the drug store and I'm all set.
If you're a little behind, and want to create a family newsletter, grab one of the Speaker One-Sheet Templates today and you'll be done before your head hits the pillow tonight, crossing one more thing off your list! Woo-hoo!
Here's what I included on ours:
– A short list of the most awesome things that happened as a family for us this year and one from each family member.
– Some stats about our family, how long we've been married, and in our home and how old the girls are this year.
– A short memorial to my beautiful grandmother who passed away this year.
– A list of our favorite books we each read in the past year. This was difficult for some of us because we read a TON, but fun to see!
– A list of silly family awards. For example, I gave my 12-year old daughter the award for, "Most Dramatic Eye Rolling, Bed Flopping,Sarcastic Sighing, and Retreating to Her Room, for being 12 – YAY."
I used icons and free clip art to make it more than just words and then saved the whole thing as a black and white file so the printing costs would be minimal. As nice as the red and green looked on my screen, I know these are getting tossed in the recycle bin after family and friends read it, and I have the family photo in there, anyway, so black and white is just fine.
Plus, you know, you can use your template for all kinds of other stuff, too, like getting speaking gigs ;-).
Writing a Book? Write Something Else First…
Having written two full-length books with another under contract, a handful of ebooks, and thousands of articles and blog posts, I know what it's like sitting with a blinking cursor in front of you on a blank screen, almost mocking you. It's not like you don't have ideas. It's not like you don't know your stuff. But golly… when it comes time to put your butt in the chair and roll up your sleeves, something can overcome even the most accomplished, brilliant expert like you.
Call it writer's block. Call it performance anxiety. Call it procrastination. Whatever it is, if writing a book is on your list of goals for 2012, the name of what's stopping you from reaching your goal doesn't matter — you gotta get past it and git 'er done!
Enter: Public speaking.
If you are an author or want to be an author, one of the easiest places to start is with the speech you'll give to talk about your book. I call it your Signature Speech™ for Authors and it can help you do a number of things:
1. Clarify your thoughts: when you have a bunch of ideas all rumbling around in your head, for many of us it often helps to talk your ideas out. One way I've found to be useful is to put together a list of questions I'd want someone to ask me about my book. Then I can come up with my answers.
2. Determine the hot topics: Yes, your entire book will be filled with useful information that is important to advancing your field, helping your readers, and in general sharing a bit of yours and others' expertise. However, there will be parts of your book that will get readers extra excited—whether that is a new development in your field, a contrary opinion you have backed up by data, or a new way of looking at or doing something. People will be talking. Putting together your speech will illuminate for you what that will be because in any speech you want to serve from the stage with details that get your audience excited about their experience of listening to you.
3. Think in user-friendly chunks: Writing an entire book can be overwhelming. But when you write a speech, typically you start with the body of the speech, which should contain from 3-5 main distinct points, presented clearly for your audience. Each main point will be chunked into sections. Your book outline can then quickly spring from those sections.
4. Determine your goal for the book: Most savvy authors know it's not the sale of your book that will make you money. It's what you do to capitalize on the content from your book (use the buzz word "leverage" if you like) that will bring you the greatest cash flow. When you pull back from the blinking cursor and look at your book from a 20,000 foot view as a cog in a wheel of content and opportunities for you, what details belong in the book become clearer. When you develop your speech first, you can easily see what content needs to be more fully elaborated on in your book and then further in programs, mastermind groups, and membership sites, all of which lead to more money in your pocket, in addition to being paid to deliver the speech itself!
5. Get feedback from audiences BEFORE your book is in print: Making changes in your book after it's been published can be an expensive and daunting task (trust me… I'm writing the 2nd edition of my first book.). When you present the content of your book to live audiences you get the huge benefit of hearing their feedback on parts they liked best, parts they want to hear more about and parts they don't care much about at all. You can deliver your speech to live audiences in person, but also think about teleseminars, webinars, being a guest on a blog radio talk show, presenting a podcast or other creative ideas to get your content in front of audiences to get that vital feedback.
If you are an author or want to be, you can pick up a free 24-minute video about getting started writing your own Signature Speech ™ for Authors at http://signaturespeechforauthors.com/.
Finally! He Dressed the Part!
In July 2008, I attended my first Internet marketing conference. That was my introduction to a whole new world, live and in person.
Because of events that happened at that 3-day conference in Chicago, within a couple weeks I was quickly propelled to success in the Internet marketing crowd, being interviewed on radio shows by some of the biggest name "gurus," being promoted by others, and began speaking on stages across the country about communication and public speaking. Effective communication is a skill you need in any business and Internet marketing is certainly no different.
It was a very exciting time. Except over and over again, I kept hitting a brick wall in that marketplace. His name is Frank Kern.
Frank Kern has created a persona of himself as "laid back surfer dude done good." He's built a wildly successful Internet empire based on his solid concepts and content, which honestly is always good, but isn't exactly rocket science or anything new. However, because he packages it well and is a master at selling himself, his persona, and his products, Mr. Frank Kern has become a very wealthy and successful man. Good for him.
Along with that success, over the years Kern has accepted many invitations to speak on stage to his marketplace, and has recorded dozens of talking head videos. As he should, he maintained his "surfer dude" persona while onstage or on video, typically wearing shorts, t-shirt, ruffled hair and an unkempt beard. And, even though I've never met the man personally, he caused all kind of headaches for ME.
As a public speaking consultant, I talk to my clients and audiences all the time about the importance of looking the part of a successful business owner and dressing to that image of success. Then here comes Frank Kern, who, dressed in whatever he wore to bed the night before and cursing at his audiences, is hugely successful with a large following.
The most savvy of business owners in his market realized all along he was dressed that way and speaking in that manner because it worked for his persona. Keeping up that image was a large part of his success, with the implicit message to others just beginning their Internet businesses, "You can do this too." That led to an interesting phenomenon.
Thousands of 20-something young men believed they could curse and dress like slobs all the way to millionaire status success, because Frank Kern did it. Never mind that persona was completely orchestrated. Like a theme for a party or special event, Frank Kern stayed true to character and his fans ate it up.
Until last week.
Last week, Frank Kern released what he calls his State of the Internet Address. As you can see from the screen capture of the video, Frank Kern has cleaned up a lot. He's wearing a custom-made suit. He's trimmed his beard, cut his hair, and is sitting behind a desk in a large office. As of this writing more than 1,900 people have clicked "Like" on Facebook for the video.
In a subsequent post to his Facebook fan page, he talked about how a few people gave him some flack about the new look, but the overwhelming majority of comments were all about how pleased his audience members are to see him cleaned up and dressing the part of a wealthy and successful business owner.
Even in our "occupy movement" world, business owners want to look up to someone who is successful. And that means looking the part.
So this is a public thank you to Mr. Frank Kern. You just made my job a whole lot easier. Here's what Frank Kern did with this video that made me smile and that you can emulate for your business communication while speaking on video:
- He dressed the part. Finally a guy who's making millions looks like more than a surfer dude, even if only for one video.
- He used a "Talking Head" video. With all the resources at his disposal, Kern could have chosen to produce ANY kind of video and had it look and sound like Hollywood quality. In fact, he actually employed the services of an Emmy-award winning editor, but at its essence, this is a basic talking head video in a location that screams, "Professional who knows what he's talking about. Take notice and listen."
- He was deliberate in his communication decisions and it showed. Here's the thing: I may not have ever met him, but I'm personal friends with one of Frank Kern's business partners, and I can assure you, Kern's decisions about his persona and communication have always been deliberate. But now, with the release of this video, those deliberate decisions are obvious.
So what do you think? How do you "look the part" when you speak? Do you think your appearance matters when communicating credibility?
Public Speaking and the Art of Story-Telling- 5 Tips to Incorporate Stories Into Your Speeches
The weather was crisp in the late afternoon hours as we headed for the choir of the bells Christmas Eve service at the beautiful small-town church in east Tennessee. As my mother-in-law guided us to a place in the crowded pews, warmly greeting friends along the way, the late afternoon sun was streaming in through the circular stained-glass windows. Children looked wide-eyed around the large building in anticipation of the joy to come over the next day.
- Stories enhance any communication situation. Remembering facts and statistics isn't as easy for most people as it is to remember the details of a well-told story. Include them everywhere, as often as possible.
- The story should illustrate a point. You never want to leave your audience wondering what that was all about. Make a clear connection between your story and the reason for telling it.
- Emotions are important. Use language that evokes emotion. Even if you never say the word "feeling," you can use adjectives, adverbs, and settings to set the emotional scene of any story.
- Adding little details enhances the story, but don't sweat the exactness of it all. Maybe I got Leo the Lion when I was 8 years old or the church was in North Carolina instead of Tennessee. As long as the essence of the story remains, don't stop yourself 15 times as you tell it trying to recall if your story happened on a Monday or a Tuesday. No one is giving a history test after your story.
- Pay attention to your nonverbal expression of the story. Speed up when you've reached an exciting point, slow down and lower your volume to invoke intensity, and use gestures to enhance your audience's overall meanings.
Public Speaking on Video: To Script or Not to Script, That Is the Question
Recently a colleague of mine, Lon Naylor, contacted me about coming and teaching a free webinar to my subscribers. Lon was on the development team at Microsoft responsible for actually creating Powerpoint. I've been through his trainings and he is the real deal; of course I jumped at the opportunity to present my community with awesome content.
Lon still laughs with me about the audio I gave him because I made a few small "tweaks", shall we say, to his script. You see, Lon hangs out in the world of "internet marketers" where they use words like "crush the competition" and "create killer" such and suches. But as you may have guessed, I'm not a killer, crusher kinda gal. So when Lon sent me a script with the word "killer" in it, I made a couple changes.
Because I had a script, I was able to get my recording done in one take, on the fly – literally on a Monday morning as I was rushing to get the kids out the door. I said, "Everybody be quiet for 2 minutes. Mommy has to make a recording!"
Then I sent Lon the .mp3 and was done. What he did with it was such fun! I have never received so many positive comments about an invitation in my 5 years online. You can see that here.
As a speech consultant and coach, I often get asked if business owners, experts and entrepreneurs using video in their marketing should write a script. As I was preparing a presentation about this very topic, I was reminded of my experience with Lon. As a result, I came up with a graphic explanation of how, when and why you should use a script and when you don't need to bother.
It boils down to this: The more "serious" the commitment to your call to action, the more scripted your videos should be. Here are the three levels from the graphic:
No-Low Commitment: If you are using a video on YouTube for example and the most you're asking is for your viewers to visit a website by clicking a link, no script needed.
Low-Medium Commitment: If you're using a video on your landing page asking for your visitor to give you their name and email address, there's some commitment in that. They know you'll be starting a relationship and emailing them. So you need to have your video a bit more scripted, but it's ok to make some changes as you go along (that's what I did with Lon's script).
Medium-High Commitment: If you're using video on a sales page that is designed to ask your visitor to make a financial investment (like giving you money for your product or service), then you need a script that ensures you explain why they should do that, share specific benefits, and pay close attention to your language. Write and revise this script until it's just right to speak to your ideal audience. And don't make any changes along the way.
With the popularity of marketing your business with online video booming having this guide should help release you from your worries about having to write a script for every video you do.
Living and Breathing Your Message Is the Best Way to Communicate
Recently, I learned from Bill Glazer, who before becoming a highly paid marketing teacher and consultant, ran his own successful menswear retail store for 30+ years. This guy has sales and marketing in his blood.
The purpose of the event was to show new members of the Glazer Kennedy Inner Circle how to move forward with their new membership and learn some basic marketing skills and beyond. The focus of the event was clearly on teaching and training.
However, because Bill is an awesome marketer, when he had the opportunity to talk about his company's products, he did so, unapologetically. He didn't come across as pushy or "salesy" – simply suggesting that if audience members were interested in learning more, there was more training to do so, gave them a reason to pick it up today, and casually moved on to his next training point.
It's like he can't turn it off.
Even as he went through his training presentation, much of the language was written in a way to sell the audience on paying attention to the next part of the training, keeping us interested and fully engaged. I'll tell you, keeping an audience fully engaged for an hour isn't easy to do, but for two very full days, that takes serious skill. Because Bill understands how to keep people engaged – after all marketing is all about engaging an audience so they pay attention to your offers – he was able to keep a room full of 300+ entrepreneurs paying rapt attention the entire two days.
The second entrepreneur was in the audience.
After the main meeting ended, there was a smaller follow-up implementation group with about 95 audience members from the local area. During that meeting one of the people in the audience stood up and started banging on the table, cursing and trying to "fire up" the audience to get excited about their businesses. In doing so, he made one of the official presenters running that part of the event clearly uncomfortable. So here was this guy, who has yet to be successful in his business as a personal trainer talking his talk by trying to be motivating.
However as I looked around the room, most audience members looked shocked, irritated and embarrassed by this person. The reaction had a lot to do with how he was speaking out of turn inappropriately. But something else struck me about why he was sitting in the audience and why his business has yet to be successful. As a personal trainer, his own body is anything but in shape.
Now don't get me wrong… I'm not picking on the guy because he has some weight to lose (ha- I could stand to lose a few myself!). His issue goes way deeper than that. He has an integrity issue. And sadly many yet-to-be-successful entrepreneurs and experts suffer the same fate.
If you are not walking your talk and living what you teach others, people will not take you seriously and will not buy from you. The message you communicate is "do as I say and not as I do." And that's a major problem.
Who would want to hire an out of shape personal trainer?
Or an organization expert who pulls up to the networking meeting in a messy car?
Or a time management expert who is always late?
Or a graphic designer with a visually boring logo and outdated website?
Or a wealth coach who is in debt?
Make sure your first and best customer is YOURSELF.
When you live and breathe your own message:
You become a walking billboard for what you do.
People are instantly attracted to you because you are in full integrity.
Your credibility is inherent in who you are.
Prospects can see clearly that you are successful at what you teach and are easily motivated to hire you to show them how to do the same thing.
Someone like Bill Glazer, who is a millionaire many times over, has thousands of customers around the world because he lives and breathes his message. His entire world communicates that he IS a marketer. It's not just his words. His words, his actions, and his life communicate a completely congruent message. So take a hard look in the mirror and ask yourself which entrepreneur are you most like and commit to doing whatever you must so your messages are in full alignment with who you are.
So tell me, how do you live and breathe your own personal message . . . or what changes do you think you can make to start to get your walk and talk to align with your message?
How to Speak to Your Audience No Matter Where They Are
In 1962, communication researcher Marshall McLuhan began to popularize the term "global village." At the time, he was talking about the implications of the "modern" mass media and technology, such as televisions and telephones, for creating the kind of world where connecting with other people and cultures around the globe was possible. All that then allowed the average person sitting in their homes to communicate with people no matter where they are and to see how they live through the images on the TV right in their homes.
Fast forward to today when we now can take the global village with us on our smart phones, tablet devices, and few well-selected apps, and suddenly any expert or entrepreneur has the capability of reaching out to the world.
Pretty exciting stuff!
In fact, what's most exciting for folks like us is that if you want to speak, you can easily be in touch with your market. Using video online you can create a feeling of intimacy of being face-to-face while never leaving your own home or office.
So now that you know you can reach your audience ANYWHERE what would you say and how would you say it?
One of the best and easiest ways is with video. Here are just a few of the ways you can use a simple yet powerful way to connect that is just like you face-to-face over a cup of coffee with your viewers:
1. Instructional/Promotional Videos on Free Sharing Sites: Think YouTube. Be careful here. The best uses of videos on sites like YouTube, Viddler and Vimeo, just to name a few is to entertain or provide useful info (or both!). Record a series of videos that are a glossary of terms your market needs to know or one video per frequently asked question. Here's an example of public speaking tip I put up on YouTube.
2. Welcome Video on Your Website: If you have a more brochure-style website you can use a quick video to welcome visitors and telling them about your site and what you'd like them to do while they are visiting. See the example of how I do this on http://FeliciaSlattery.com.
3. Squeeze Page AKA Opt-In Video Invitation: As you're building your community of subscribers, record a quick personal invitation to sign up to receive a free report, e-course, white paper, or ….
4. …Video Training Series: After a new subscriber opts in, you could provide a longer video training with some greater details in it.
5. Testimonial Video: When you are thrilled with a product or service or even an ezine, ahem (hint, hint, wink, wink, nudge nudge…), you could record a video to let others know about your good experience, especially if it relates in some way to what you do for others. It shows you're keeping up-to-date in your field and working to better yourself, just like you're likely encouraging your clients and prospects to do as well. People are more likely to buy from you or connect with you when they see you modeling the same behavior. Put these videos on your blog, Facebook, or YouTube (or all three!).
You can see many of the various types of talking head videos and others I have made on my YouTube Channel. None of them are perfect, but they are all out there working for me & my business.
I would love to hear from you. What are some creative ways that you have used to reach your audience? Please share in the comments!
How Being Like a Dog with a Bone Can Help Your Business Succeed
A little over a month ago we added a new family member: a sweet rescue dog from the shelter we named Sadie. She's 10 months old, so she still has a lot of puppy in her, but luckily for us, we've had a lot of help and advice from professional trainers and the puppy school at the local pet shop to get her doing all the basic obedience stuff pretty quickly. I also have to give a shout out to my in-laws who worked with her a lot while they were visiting. (Thanks Anne & Dick!).
You see, I've never had a dog in almost my whole life. My Dad had a German shepherd when I was a baby, but by the time I was three years old she was out of the house. My husband, Brent, was raised around dogs and always had at least one dog in the house until the time he was 18 and went away to college. However, he was never responsible for the dog. That means neither of us has ever raised and been responsible for a dog in our adult lives. We're learning a lot quickly!
Actually, it's kind of like running a business. You do learn a lot quickly as you get rolling. Having a new dog has reminded me of a lot of business lessons. I'll be sharing with you plenty of stories about our Sadie, I'm sure!
Today, as I was trying to choose which article I'd write for you, I've been amazed. My 10-month old puppy – not known for their attention spans, like most children! – has pretty much not moved from my feet. I'd like to say it's because she enjoys sitting by me, but it's mostly because she has a steer bone she's working on.
If you're not familiar with a steer bone, it's about seven inches long, circular, and hollow. My in-laws taught us to put some natural peanut butter inside the hollow part. I've been sitting here for about 90 minutes working and Sadie has been working too, on this bone the entire time! She's barely moved other than to reposition the bone – oh and then when I took her photo you see here, she came over to say hi. But then she went right back to her bone.
So…. thank my new dog Sadie for today's article inspiration: how you can be like a dog with a bone in your business.
- Sheer Unrelenting Focus: Sadie has a good half dozen toys or more to choose from. But she is focused on the steer bone. When you deliver a speech or work on a project, forget that ridiculous "entrepreneurial ADD" we always hear about. Don't allow your speech to ramble around and don't allow your focus in your business to waiver. Later on Sadie will be on to another toy, just like you can be on to another project. But in the moment: stay focused.
- Keep It Up: What's 90 minutes in dog years? A long time, that's what. And it's how long Sadie has been working on this bone. Patiently. Consistently. Going after the prize. Communication in your business is also about consistency and persistence. Don't try one communication tactic or strategy one time and decide it doesn't work. Keep at it to get it right and get to your prize.
- Use Different Angles: Sadie doesn't just hold the steer bone one way to get at the peanut butter inside. She moves the bone around and from side to side to get what she wants. Do you want something in your business? I bet there's more than one way to get at it. For example, if you'd like to make more money, are you using just one way to do it? Or do you have multiple means of bringing in more cash? In my business I work with private clients, sell products online, teach paid virtual classes, get paid to do speaking gigs, and get paid from sponsors. What's another angle you can look at in your business where you could get more of the good stuff?
- Have Fun!: There's one thing I've learned about my dog… she's all about having fun. She is clearly enjoying working on her steer bone. What do you love to do in your business? Fun does not have to be about not being productive. In fact, the more fun you're having the more productive you are likely to be in your business. It's because you enjoy what you're doing that you can do more and get more done. If you're not having fun anymore, maybe it's time to change your perspective, take a break, or make a switch to a project or task you'll like better.
So for you pet owners — have you learned any valuable lessons for business, or life — from your four-legged (or feathered) friends? Share them in the comments.

Do you keep all three shares in the same safe?DiB
Well, 2 x zero is zero.The plain truth is that the dollar is heading south. Coke's international biz is almost three times as big as Pep's percentagewise. Even though Pep is an underdog overseas, it doesn't seem to grow faster than coke. So why stick with Pep in a time like this? Use your tiny brain.
Let's see, does meager knowledge triumph vaste ignorance(?).I have been operating on the presumption that PEP's non-beverage sales (e.g., Frito Lay, Dorito, Quaker cereals, Cheetos, Ruffles, Tostitos) provide PEP a bit broader base and therefore less risk than KO's focus on beverages. Last I saw, PEP had the top seven, and top eight of ten, snack chip sellers in U.S. supermarkets, which are also tops in several foreign countries.So it could be your measuring standards are different from those of us who have been convinced for a long time that PEP has greater potential for growth.While exchange rates may contribute to earnings fluctuations, their longer term impact would appear to be a relatively minor factor in corporate success/failure. In any case, it does seem logical to compare corporations, versus just carbonated drink divisions.DiB

Fabulous Ring
I adore this ring. It looks even better than the picture shown. I expected it to be a solid black ring, but it isn't. The ring has a very slight amber hue. It looks much more expensive than what it was. I constantly get compliments. I may order another one as a gift.

Welcome to the Creeper's Lab! We have multiple Minecraft servers and an active community, mostly focused on playing Survival mode. We also have special games, events and contests! If you're not already playing with us, please don't hesitate to join. Newcomers welcome!
You don't need to register to quickly join and look around our main survival server, but you will need to in order to play. Register today!
Monopoly game results!
A few people have asked me about the results of the Monopoly game event, then I realized that I never did post them. My mistake!
Up to 12 players showed up to participate in the cutthroat world of finance, leading to an initial problem with cash flow. The Central Bank printed more money (hello inflation!), then the game got underway. After a few hours of gameplay, and with the hour getting rather late, we agreed to count each participant's cash and properties to determine the winners. Ultimately, Coneva, RoxastheAwesome and axe_y were the top three winners! They have all earned some diamonds from the entry fee that each participant had to provide.
Thanks to everyone who joined in for this special night, Itachi for efficiently running the bank and keeping the game running smoothly, and of course to Toad_ for building the board itself and coordinating the event!
September seasonal event: UHC, first round!
This is an idea that has been thrown around for a while, and I decided to indulge you people with the introduction of UHC mode!
But what is UHC mode, some of you might ask? It's simple: it's hardcore Minecraft, on a server, with natural health regeneration disabled. Your main challenge in this case is to manage your health, since even eating won't fill it back up. Your only options are to brew health potions, craft Golden Apples, or build a regen beacon. Good luck with that last one!
To increase the challenge, PvP is enabled, there are no protections done besides the spawn point, raiding and griefing ARE allowed, and mobs WILL cause damage to the environment. If you forgot how bad creeper explosions could get, you're about to get a strong reminder!
Once you die, you'll automatically be set to Spectator mode. That will allow you to see how the rest of the game is going, but that's it for you until the next game cycle. The current goal is to use a new map every month. Some will use Minecraft's default generator, some will be pre-made maps, other months might see the return of classics... In any case, maps will get replaced, so don't build anything fancy with the expectation to keep it: we're got the survival servers for that!
As this is new, there will likely be adjustements down the road. For example, I'm considering allowing people to resume playing after a set cooldown period, giving them more opportunities to explore and fight before the next cycle.
One extra thing I'm doing is something different: visitors ARE allowed to join UHC without registering, giving them a starting gameplay option. To help keep everything under control, the automatic word filter previously used in TNT Tag will be extended over the UHC world as well.
UHC mode is accessible from the lobby, under the UHC label (where World 8 used to stand); the world name is Kenorland. To exit that, just /lobby out at any time. Various sections of the website have been updated to include this new gameplay option
Multiple players have asked over the years for a more challenging option, and this is my answer to you. Now, the ball is in your camp!
The seasonal event itself
I'm adding UHC as a permanent mode on the Creeper's Lab. To launch it properly, though, it'll double as September's seasonal event!
The current world is 2048 x 2048 in size, custom-drawn and features a few different biomes. Explore, find some original vista (or dive deep underground), and find a way to survive past your first night!
This event begins NOW and will run over September 30th at 23:59:59, Eastern time. A new UHC map will be introduced after that, although that won't be part of this seasonal event.
There's no hard goal this time around, besides surviving... which will be a challenge in itself! Everyone who joins the UHC server will earn one Merit Point for showing up. Additionally, all can earn 10 Merit Points for reaching each of the following targets, as tracked through the vanilla Minecraft achievements:
- Local Brewery: Brew a potion
- Enchanter: Build an enchantment table
Note that some changes are coming to the Merit Points system, will are still being worked out. Details will be available later on.
All rewards only apply to players who have registered before the end of September.
That's it! Good luck, everyone!
UPDATE: Ores and caverns have been seeded through the world, but only about 50% of the area has been covered. If your current location doesn't have any, go deeper or head somewhere else!
Event: Come to play Monopoly!
Playing a game within a game can be fun, and it's time to do just that!
Toad_ has finished building his giant Monopoly board with the help of a few people, and he's inviting everyone to come play! This game will take place this Saturday, the 10th, during Events Night. Please make your way to the board before 10pm so that we can get started quickly! On Saturday nights, the Monopoly board can be easily reached through the End of Time, in the Additional Attractions section.
There is an entry price of two diamonds per player. The winner of the game will earn at least some of these, and there are rumors that more prizes will be made available to the participants as well!
All come to play, try to become rich, likely fail, but hopefully have fun in the process. See you then!
September seasonal event... is delayed!
It's about time for the next event, and a new month just started, which makes this the right moment...
... except that what I have in mind still needs some more polish, so I've got to delay the launch until later. This is definitely happening in September, though, so I'm asking you for a bit of patience while I work things out. I hope you'll agree with me later on that it'll have been worth the wait!
New: a Starbound server!
Many people I know have played Starbound, some more than others. Several also paused for a while, waiting for the real launch of the game. Well, that happened less than a week ago, with the release of Starbound 1.0, and I decided to launch a server for everyone!
For those not in the know, Starbound is a 2D game that involves exploration, mining and crafting, not unlike Minecraft, although a bigger focus is set on the exploration element. With many playable races and several procedurally generated elements, repeated playthroughs can be quite different! It's available now on Steam and GOG.com.
This new place, called the Avian's Lab, aims to recreate the same easy-going attitude that players have grown to love from the Creeper's Lab. It's opened to both new and experienced players alike.
Some of the conveniences that players have gotten used to are also available on the server of the Avian's Lab. This includes an IRC link-up to chat with the in-game players without needing to log in yourself, and the ability to protect planets so that only you is allowed to make changes to your habitat.
I invite everyone to check out the new mini-website for some more details. If you want to jump directly in-game, you can use the play.creeperslab.net address (leave the port empty) from the multiplayer menu to get going.
Should this prove to be popular, I'll expand the website to have more information. If you have suggestions about this, don't hesitate to speak up!
Invite your Starbound player friends to the Avian's Lab, and let's go explore the final frontier together!
Status of Ouroboros
To the Netizens of Miranda,
I wanted to get Ouroboros back up for those who use it, so I'm hosting it on another machine at this moment. The main machine, Tartarus, still needs a harddrive, but for the end-user, you won't notice any difference.
My problems aside: Ouroboros is ONLINE.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused any builders of Miranda. Although thanks to DrCossack for conveniently having a contest that kept everyone busy during the downtime. If you experience any issues or if Ouroboros is down, please feel free to contact me on IRC or on the forums and I'll see about resolving any issues as soon as I can.
Also a fun note! Today Tartarus decided to somehow revive itself while I was at work. Glanced at the IRC and suddenly Tartarus connects.
1: The machine had stopped recognizing several DLLs.
2: It got bad enough to stop recognizing the OS.
3: The HDD when trying to access it would go offline after ten minutes of accessing/copying things off it while booted from USB.
4: I wasn't even home to turn on the power. It somehow turned itself on, uncorrupted the OS enough to boot and launch IRC.
Even though it somehow revived itself, still aiming to replace the HDD and am not running Ouroboros on the machine until I do. This is just a strange creepiness of the day to share!

Winners of the seasonal cycle, survey for feedback!
A full year has passed since the seasonal events started, which means that the entire cycle is complete! People participated in multiple events, gathered Merit Points, had fun (hopefully!) and won a chance to win one of the following hot prizes!
- $20 Amazon.com gift card - Buy what you want!
- Any Steam game of your choice up to $20 - More gaming!
- Plush squid - To guard your cookie jar, or whatever else!
- Lego Minecraft #21119 - The Dungeon - For real-life block handling!
- A MineToys figure - Get your Minecraft character to stand on your desk!
As a reminder, these winners were determined by a random weighted draw: the more Merit Points gathered in the past year, the better odds your name would be picked up... although it wasn't guaranteed! That gave everyone a chance to win, even those with one point, yet increased the odds for people who managed to win a few points.
And, at long last, our winners:
First place - AshaLina
Second place - Primagen
Third place - SorathePumpking
Additionally, I've decided to hand over a prize to the top scorer of the entire cycle - MountainB0y! Congratulations to all! I'll be sending you a forum PM shortly with the details on how to select and get your prize from the lot.
Survey for feedback!
With that behind us, I've put together a short survey to gather some feedback about the structure of the seasonal events, along with a few key questions about the future of the Creeper's Lab. Please answer it even if you didn't participate in any seasonal events or aren't playing Minecraft currently, all feedback is valuable! It's a short 10 questions, so you'll be done within a minute or two.
Thank you for taking the time to fill this in!
Island contest results!
All were summoned to an island, and 16 of you answered the call. Taking control of an island, the goal was to take it then turn it into something else - with no given theme! This gave many a chance to put their own ideas into place instead of being limited to a few options.
Craftmen0, Raegal and myself have visited each entry and gave them a note from 1 to 10 based on the originality of the ideas featured and the resulting amount of details packed into each entry. This gives us the following three winners:
First place - MountainB0y
Second place - axe_y
Third place - SoraThePumpking
Congratulations to everyone who won and thanks to all who decided to participate! Once again, the top three winners have earned 50, 30 and 15 Merit Points respectively, while everyone else who at least began an entry earned 1 point. The entries along with judges comments are available on their own page, as always. Note that I only listed entries that had a minimal amount of changes to them.
This wraps up the initial round of the seasonal events! You can view the current rankings on the forums. The winners of that will be announced very shortly, along with the final list of prizes available to be picked from. Stay tuned!
Possible unexpected notifications
I've upgraded the stats tracking plugin to the newest version yesterday, which involved rewriting a significant part of my own tracking code. As a side effect, it appears to have fixed some achievements targets that were broken while I wasn't aware. As such, the next time you go in-game, you might get a few surprise notifications. It's normal!
Likewise, if you believe that you should have earned a specific achievement yet it didn't trigger, please get in touch with me so I can double check. Some corrections are needed once in a while.
Minecraft 1.10.1 and 1.10.2 appeared, upgrade away!
Minecraft 1.10.1 has been released to fix some minor bugs, and a 1.10.2 is expected later today to fix the obligatory bugs introduced in 1.10.1. Both versions are compatible with the base 1.10 version, so you're free to upgrade as you want... or not!
UPDATE: Some players have reported crashes using 1.10.1, so it's recommended that you jump over to 1.10.2 whenever possible.

As the moisture adsorption capacity of Master Dry and Sea Dry is greater compared with Desi Dry and DIN Dry, for container transports we recommend using Master Dry and/or Sea Dry. This overview shows, in alphabetical order, the goods for which Master Dry and Sea Dry provides
reliable protection against moisture. The recommendations listed apply to
standard 20-foot containers (GP). The amount for standard 40-foot containers is accordingly twice as much.
As a general guideline value for assorted merchandise, we recommend 16 kg of Master Dry and 5 kg of Sea Dry for 20" cargo containers

For many do it yourselfers it seems easier to lay new vinyl tile down over the existing linoleum tile. This is a guide about installing vinyl tile over old linoleum tile.
I want to lay down self stick tiles on top of linoleum in the bathroom. Can it be done successfully?
Grandma D. from Colorado
Yes , it can be done. Just be sure and take some tough sand paper and rough your old linoleum floor. Also BE SURE and use some glue under each tile. Even though it says PRE_PASTED or SELF_STICK. My husband and I made the mistake to just pull the back off and stick ours down. Had to take piece by piece up and apply glue under it. Has stuck ever since. We used linoleum glue and just applied it with a knife, as we laid each self sticking tile. It doesn't take but a VERY thin layer of glue.
I have laid the self stick tiles over linoleum before and had really good luck and it's much easier to do than laying one sheet unless you are a pro I'd think.
more than likely it wont. the vinyl underneath probably doesn't have a smooth texture. my husband lays floors for a living and he has to level the area out with floor patching (like a cement that you put on with a trial) that evens the area. If you don't do this, then every single ripple or dent will show through. It may look pretty rough. The best thing to do would be to take the underlying floor completly up. To get waht you can't get up by hand, you can get a tool at the harware store(H. Depot or lowes) that looks like a big razor blade on a long stick, like a rake or a broom.
In my husbands experience, the self stick vinyl has not been successful. I would check into other options before I started. If money is the problem, then you can look around at flooring stores that sell remnants off of bigger jobs that were unused and are the perfect size for bathrooms or small closets
We had linoleum in our kitchen that had a diamond shaped pattern on it. We put down the self stick tiles right over top of it. It looked good for a couple of months, then the pattern from the linoleum started to show through. I would take the linoleum up first if I were you.
I hate my inlaid linoleum in my bathroom! I would like to replace but would like to avoid ripping up the current stuff. Can I put new peel and stick tiles over it? How about ceramic tiles?
Thanks for your help,
Monica from Northeast, PA
We just laid new linoleum over our old and found a wonderful brand at Lowe's--it's more expensive, but there is no glue involved, just cut to size (carefully) and put it in, it 'adheres itself' to the floor, just put some sticky tape around the edge(Purchased at Lowe's for this purpose) Sorry, can't remember the name, but it's about twice as thick and feels ABSOLUTELYLUXURIOUS to walk on, even barefoot. You can tell which it is when you go and look at the samples. I would recommend this over anything else. Kim
I hated my bathroom floor, also, and, after measuring the widest parts of the bathroom, I purchased a piece of 6' x 8' carpeting (they come in different sizes) at Menard's, made a template of the floor using newspaper taped together, turned the carpet upside down, put the template on the carpet back and cut around the template with an Xacto knife. Voila'! A "custom" carpet for the bathroom that fits nice and snug and feels great under bare feet. Using carpet cleaner now and then keeps it looking great. It's been in my bathroom for almost 13 years.
As long as the linoleum you are covering is still securely glued to the floor, with no gaps or places that have lifted, it is my understanding that you can use it as a subfloor and put another floor over it - such as ceramic or peel and stick tile. You do have to make sure that the floor is thoroughly cleaned and stripped of any old wax, etc. There are some sites on the internet that are helpful. Take into account that since you are adding layers instead of replacing them this could affect transitions into other rooms off of that room.
I would consult with a building inspector or flooring contractor re: ceramic tile. When I had my house inspection for my 100+ year old house, I asked the inspector if I could put a ceramic tile floor in the up stairs bath -- which has a wooden floor that is crumbling. He explained that a tricky process called a float would be needed. I decided that since linoleum is as historically correct as ceramic tile, that I would go with linoleum . . . when I find a job!
My home was built in the 40's. In the utility room in the basement the concrete floors were covered with I think linoleum tiles. They appear to have been laid around that time. The red and green square tiles however, do not completely cover the concrete floor so it looks unfinished.
I want to put a new floor down to cover the entire floor (linoleum and concrete) in the utility room and don't want to pull up the old tiles. I'm thinking of updated vinyl tiles. Because of the unevenness of the floor is there a product I can use to pour or lay over the concrete to even it up to the existing tiles?
By Kathleen from Alexandria, VA
You can buy floor leveling compound at a store like Home Depot or Lowe's. Both places are good at giving you advice, they can tell you what type of flooring would be best to use, etc.
If you should have tear up the old tiles be careful because old tiles made in the the time period you describe will have been made from asbestos. Asbestos fibers are something you don't want to breathe in. You can have someone come in and test the tiles for asbestos. If there is asbestos in the tile and you want or have to have them taken out, you will have to call in the experts to remove them.
There are multiple issues here. First is asbestos. Removal will probably be expensive. It's best to leave it there if possible.
Secondly, it sounds like you have an irregular floor. This can probably be repaired by an experienced floor layer. If a floor layer is hired and he determines that he is able to even the concrete so that he is able to lay over it thus covering the asbestos tile you would most likely find that to be the most cost effective solution. You may still find this project to be more costly than you like.
I would call a reputable floor company a bid should cost you nothing. Request a bid be careful of anyone that will only give you an estimate unless they are a person that you know and trust. ;o)
Thank You for the responses. I didn't even think about asbestos. I will definitely not remove it but try the floor leveling compound first before contacting a pro. I think I've seen it done on a DIY program.
Can I tile over a linoleum backspash? If so, how do I do it?
By Chris from Long Island, NY
Hi, I have done several home improvement jobs including tiling just about everything, floors and walls!. It's my experience that you should only put tile on a waterproof backer board. You wouldn't want to tile over the existing tile because it's possible that at some point in time, the linoleum mat loosen up and then your tiles will fall off because the weren't glued to a stable backing to begin with. So you have two options, either remove the old tiles right down to the bare wall, or put up some waterproof backerboard to allow for a stable surface to attach your tiles to. Good luck!
