Best Part: You'll Get A COMPLETE 12-Month Marketing Calendar – Along With Everything You Need To Put Every Component Into Action So You Can Make 2016 Your "Breakout" Year To Make The Money You Want And Achieve The Freedom You Deserve.
Dear Renegade Marketer,
If you're tired of the income roller-coaster and are frustrated with too much to do…but not enough time to do it, then this message will cut to the chase and give you the answers you're looking for.
Because we're going to officially take one more thing off your plate that you're probably ignoring or performing badly…
…and that's prospecting for new customers, clients or patients, and keeping in touch with the customers you have now.
I know that marketing your business and keeping in touch with your existing customers is a painful affair—something you avoid unless you're running short on customers, clients or patients.
And when you DO market your business, you're probably using the same ol' boring strategies that everybody else is using—leaving you with a disappointing return on your investment and the feeling that you just flushed money down the drain.
Oh, and by the way…
It's NOT Enough To Make The Phone Ring And Have More People Come To Your Website
You have to be able to take the customers, clients and patients you get and stimulate referrals on a consistent basis. You also have to create cash windfalls in a systematic way…thus increasing the value of your herd.
Because, think about it. You've spent a lot of money and a lot of time attracting customers, clients or patients to your business. The last thing you want to do is "drop the ball" by ignoring them and causing them to go to another competitor.
Yet, not keeping in touch with customers is the #1 reason why customers, clients or patients forget about you…and run off to a competitor…
…NOT because your product or service was subpar.
You just ignored them because you didn't have a System in place you can simply "plug in" and have a bulk of your marketing already done for you.
We want to give you a systematic, repeatable method for:
• Increasing the lifetime value of your customers, clients or patients
• Turning these new customers into "raving fans" so they'll refer more of their family and friends to you
• Putting more money into your pocket at will…not through a haphazard "wait and see what happens" approach.
• Creating cash windfalls in a systematic way through short 3-4 day "cash surge campaigns"…stuff you're probably overlooking right now in your business.
Now I'm sure all of this seems overwhelming and you're wondering when you're going to have time to implement all of this stuff.
It's hard enough to get prospects to your brick and mortar business or website and you're already wearing tons of hats in your business as it is…
Well, guess what, you're in luck because:
You'll Be Able To Take This System, Give It To A Staff Member Or Virtual Assistant, And Tell Them To "Go Do It"…
Sure you can do all of this yourself. But this System is set-up so that you can easily outsource all of this material thanks to the tools, resources and guidance you'll get as part of this Package.
That's right…you can finally stop being the "bottleneck" in your business when it comes to marketing and advertising your business—too busy working your core competency that you forget or "put off" critical internal and external marketing campaigns to keep the pipeline full.
And your staff will LOVE you because they'll be following an orderly, repeatable system for marketing your business—instead of the haphazard approach you're probably using right now that's generating dysfunction in your business…and with your staff.
You just give them the 12-month marketing calendar as part of this System, all the tools, and all the resources and just tell them to go do it…leaving you to perform other moneymaking tasks in your business.
Imagine waking up every morning knowing exactly how many customers, clients or patients you're going to deal with the next month…even the next 6 months.
And think about what it feels like having your pipeline full with your ideal customers, clients or patients…and how many worries it will help you absolve…
…Like wondering if you're going to be in business the next 1-2 years. Whether you'll have enough customers to keep the lights on in your office next month.
And whether you'll have to make compromises in what your family can do regarding vacations, things to buy, upgrades to your home, where you can send your kids to college, etc.
Because stress and strife in a business also causes stress on the family. You may be projecting your business worries on your family without you knowing it…so having a strong, prosperous business thanks to this System will also lead to a strong family life.
You'll also be mentally present with your kids and spouse when you're with them at the park, going to the movies, etc…instead of being distracted by money and business problems.
We want to give you an escape from the "hum-drum" business life…and usher in a life of prosperity, possibilities and certainty that'll allow you to leave a legacy for you and your family:
"Your Marketing Department In A Box"
The ONLY Complete Soup-To-Nuts Program with ALL the Tools, Resources, and Guidance You Need to Acquire New Customers, Clients or Patients, Increase Their Lifetime Value, Generate More Referrals, Re-activate Lost Customers and Put More Money in Your Pocket – Starting IMMEDIATELY.
Your Marketing Department In A Box is going to empower you to create your own marketing materials without outside help. You'll get all the tools, resources, and guidance you need to summon a surge of customers, clients or patients to your business so you can absolve most of your business worries.
But that's not all. We're also going to give you systems for increasing their lifetime customer's value, stimulating referrals and reactivating lost customers—things you're probably ignoring in your business right now.
So if all your marketing has been focused on getting more customers to your website or storefront, then it's not your fault. That's what most programs teach you.
This all-encompassing program ALSO gives you systems for putting more money in your pocket by telling you what to do with your existing customers—where the REAL money's at.
Here Are The Tools You'll Get That Are Probably Missing From Your Existing Marketing Plan:
• A 12-Month Marketing & Implementation Calendar complete with action items and dates for the entire year. This is truly "money" because you'll be able to know what to do, when to do it without scratching your head wondering what to do next. You can do this yourself…or you can give this calendar to a staff member and tell them to go do it.
• Monthly Lead Generation Postcards – These aren't your Dad's postcards…these are Oversized, themed, and ready to use to drive home killer offers each and every month of the year. When your prospects get these postcards in the mail, there's no way they'll be able to miss 'em. This is how you'll stand out from your competition.
• Monthly "Personal Success Nuggets" newsletter postcards to easily and inexpensively stay in touch with customers and leads. Chances are, you're not staying in touch with your customers, as you should. These newsletter postcards take the pressure off you to come up with a 4-8 page newsletter every month…you'll be done in 1 hour tops.
• Monthly E-letters…customizable, professionally designed email HTML newsletters ready to use for your monthly e-newsletters. This will make your emails stand out among the pack—you only have to fill in two blanks and you're done.
• Quarterly (4) Cash Flow Surge Promotions …all themed and good to go to generate massive profits whenever you want. No more trying to figure out what type of promo to run during a weekend or a holiday—just "follow directions" and use what's already been tested to work.
• A Bi-Yearly Lost Customer Reactivation Campaign so you don't need to worry about bringing back past customers who've left for whatever reason. This campaign could allow you to get your investment back in this course by itself.
• A Customer Referral Campaign to be used weekly to get new customers to tell their friends and expand your business's reach practically on autopilot. This is how you build your personal "referral army" that'll flood your business with customers, clients or patients who are already pre-disposed to do business with you because they come recommended by a family or friend.
• Three (3) Additional Monthly Campaigns three full campaigns (oversized lead generation postcards, "personal success nuggets" newsletter postcards & E-letters) you can use should you want something different from our standard set.
• Facebook Fast-Track Training – Chances are, you're not using this powerhouse media giant as effectively as you should…if at all. Or you're using it and your ROI is struggling. This training will give you an "unfair advantage" in your marketplace that'll allow you to siphon leads like crazy.
• Ultimate Magnetic Offer Generator…with this online tool you'll be able to easily create powerful offers with a few clicks of a button. This will allow you to shortcut a lot of trial and error trying to get my offer right (Why reinvent the wheel when you can use what already works?)
PLUS… we've included a USB thumb drive to hold editable versions of everything – easy to customize and use.
But We're Not Just Going To Give You A Big Box O' Stuff And Let You "Figure It Out" For Yourself
You'll also get personal attention and a straighter path to business success by keeping you connected with like minds and mentors that'll accelerate your business faster than you ever could yourself.
Nobody likes to be a "lone ranger"…so you'll get the following when you take action and invest in Your Marketing Department In A Box today:
• Four (4) Implementation Coaching Sessions each week for four weeks you'll receive in the mail Coaching CDs and Transcriptions covering how to plan out the next 12 months, customize all the documents together, and much more.
• One-Year Access To "Your Marketing Department In A Box" Group where I can collaborate with other members and get social media marketing updates when they happen. You'll be a part of a community of like-minded individuals who know GKIC-style marketing. Who knows, this could lead to more clients, customers, joint venture partners and opportunities you would have otherwise missed out on.
Can You Attach A Price Tag To More Control, Freedom And Bottom-Line Profits?
Sure, you can try to piecemeal all of these marketing tools together by hiring a bunch of copywriters, going to seminars, buying different courses, and "hoping and praying" you put all the pieces together.
But why try to replicate all of this yourself when you can simply invest to use them in your business?
We're saving you TONS of time, money and frustration here. If you stop and think about it, hiring a copywriter to create 12 postcards could cost you $5,000-$10,000 all by itself. And it takes the average copywriter about a MONTH to get it done.
So when you invest in Your Marketing Department In A Box you're essentially buying SPEED. Speed in the sense that you don't have to test what works and what doesn't…you just take all of our materials and implement them into your business.
We've already done the trial and error for you.
You're also buying piece of mind knowing that a lot of the "grunt work" of marketing your business, creating referral campaigns, and keeping in touch with your customers, clients or patients is already taken care of.
All you need to do is "fill in the blanks" and customize the documents…send the pieces out according to the 12-Month Marketing And Implementation calendar, and you're done with it.
No more guessing what to do next to summon a surge of cash in your business. Just follow directions according to the 12-month marketing calendar and forever FREE yourself from the chore of marketing your business, when to do it, what to do, and how to do it…
All of this is worth easily $100,000 considering the cost of putting these tools together yourself by someone that's knowledgeable in direct response marketing—not general, wasteful "brand" advertising that's being touted by most marketing "experts" out there…including your local marketing ad rep.
But when you take action today, you don't have to pay $100,000. You won't have to pay $10,000…a fraction of what it takes to hire an actual marketing department to execute this marketing campaign for you.
When you take action right now while this page is still up, you'll get ALL the tools, resources, and guidance that would cost THOUSANDS all by itself …for only $2,497. We'll also let you in for 3 easy monthly payments of $865.66 ($2,597 Total).
And Don't Forget if you invest by TONIGHT at midnight we are Including This Special BONUS!
Special Bonus: As a Special Bonus for investing in "Your Marketing Department In A Box", I'll Receive Free Access to "Modern Traffic School" program. (A $497 value)
This school features six experts Pat Flynn, Mike Stewart. Craig Simpson, Jermaine Griggs, and Jeff Johnson. They will show you how to build your list…AND each includes an action checklist of exactly what you need to do. This is HOT up-to-the minute information from today's lead generation pros who will show you how to generate customers on demand.
It Will Require As Little As 1% Boost In Your Income In One Year To Recoup Your Investment
That's if you're earning a $250,000 yearly income…and, if you're earning $100,000…you'll need a mere 2.5% to recoup your investment.
Can you honestly conceive of not getting your investment back when you just implement one of the tools that are listed as part of Your Marketing Department In A Box?
Heck, just implementing the Lost Customer Reactivation Campaign as part of this System is enough to get a measly 1-2-3% income increase all by itself.
In fact, in most businesses, you'll need only 1 extra customer, client or patient you wouldn't have otherwise attracted to recoup this investment—when you consider how many times they'll come back to you again and again and refer others to you when you implement this System.
Put it in this perspective, what we're charging here is a trivial fee. Trivial because you'll more than likely get 100-1000x your investment back by implementing these marketing tools—something that, if you're honest with yourself, you're not implementing into your business.
Best part: you have nothing to lose because you're backed up by…
Our Kick Butt, 100% No
Risk Money-Back Guarantee:
Join the program. Receive the implementation coaching sessions with Dave. Take the program for a test drive and make money.
If after 30-days, you don't feel this program is an exceptional value or feel this won't work for you (for ANY reason) you can simply ask for full, no hassle refund.
So there's no way you can "mess up" or make a mistake.
I don't mean to be blunt, but:
If You Pass This Up, You'll Keep Making These Mistakes That KILLS Most Businesses:
• You won't be in touch with your customers. The #1 thing that ruins businesses is apathy…and not having a repeatable "plug and play" system that makes keeping in touch with customers automatic will allow this to fall through the cracks.
• You're not going to be able to stand out amidst the competition. Not having a unique system that allows you to get the word out about your business will make you either "disappear" into the crowd, or you'll use the same marketing that "everybody else" uses.
• You're not going to be able to communicate marketing value propositions in a compelling fashion. Hate to say it, but most marketing is boooo…ring. We live in an entertainment culture, so if you're not making your market entertaining, you're just disappearing amidst the noise.
• You're not going to be able to create killer offers at will. You need to be creating killer offers that your target market finds irresistible. We're not just talking about high-ticket offers, but also lead generation offers too. And you need to craft these offers (title, contents, etc…) in a compelling fashion.
• You're going to forever be a bottleneck in your business. I know you're wearing as many hats as possible in your business, and you're probably relegating marketing your business to "emergency" situations…like when you run out of customers, clients or patients, or when you have time. Not having this System is going to leave you "high and dry" when the pipeline someday runs out.
Don't let this happen to you. We've taken all the guesswork, the "figuring out" and the planning of how to market your business—so you can focus more on your core competency…the "thing" you like to do.
So If You Need The Following:
• More free time
• Less stress
• Less strife in your business
• Better quality customers, clients or patient
• More control in your business
And your family needs you to have:
• More free time with the kids
• More time for vacations
• Less business worries so you can be mentally present with them
Then invest in Your Marketing Department In A Box today.
You see, many people come to the end of their lives with regrets…not so much what they did, but what they didn't do. Opportunities that came about but didn't get investigated or acted upon.
This is one of those opportunities. The opportunity to finally have a bulk of your marketing already done for you so you can focus on being a doctor, lawyer, chiropractor…doing what you love…
…The opportunity to finally "hand off" a bulk of your marketing to a staff member or virtual assistant and never have to worry where the next customer, client or patient is going to come from.
Taking action by investing in Your Marketing Department In A Box, implementing some of the tools, and taking the system for a test drive thanks to the Guarantee won't lead to a lifetime of regret.
But passing this up might.
So take action and invest in Your Marketing Department In A Box today and receive your special bonus "Modern Traffic School" – if you invest by TONIGHT at midnight – yours to keep no matter what!
Get ready for more customers, clients or patients, more money in your pocket and less stress and strife in your business. And get ready to get the "Marketing" part of of your business checked off of your To-Do list.
Dedicated To Multiplying Your Income,
Dan Kennedy, GKIC
P.S. You may feel the temptation to "get creative" with the tools, resources and guidance you'll discover when you take action and invest in Your Marketing Department In A Box. But I recommend just letting the System do the work and simply follow directions.
Your Marketing Department In A Box is designed to be simply "handed off" to a staff member to implement. Or you can do it yourself, if you choose. Either way, this System is going to help you flip the switch of marketing your business from "difficult" to "easy."

Honda Racing
Power, Penske Perfect in Sweep of Sonoma
Leading virtually flag to flag, Will Power led a dominating Team Penske performance Sunday at Infineon Raceway, heading teammates Helio Castroneves and Ryan Briscoe in a 1-2-3 finish in the Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma. Collecting the maximum possible championship points by also qualifying on the pole and leading the most laps, Power moved back into contention for the IZOD IndyCar Series championship, now trailing Dario Franchitti, Sunday's fourth-place finisher, by 26 points, with four races remaining.
Power led 71 of 75 race laps, turning the lead over to teammate Briscoe only during his two scheduled pit stops. Even a late-race caution period, due to the crash of series debutant Ho-Pin Tung, failed to present a challenge to Power, as he cruised to a 3.24-second victory over Castroneves. Finishing third, Briscoe ensured the first Team Penske 1-2-3 result since the trio became full-time teammates in 2010, and the first for the Penske organization since Nazareth Speedway in 1994.
Continuing a six-season tradition of equality and reliability, all 28 Honda-powered drivers completed 9,309 miles this weekend at Infineon without a single failure of the Honda Indy V-8 engine. It now has been two years since a Honda in-race engine failure, the last one taking place here at Sonoma in 2009.
Two-time defending series champion and current points leader Franchitti had an uneventful run to fourth, just ahead of his Target Chip Ganassi Racing teammate, Scott Dixon. Sebastien Bourdais survived a last-lap contretemps with Giorgio Pantano to take sixth, equaling Dale Coyne Racing's best result of the season, sixth at Toronto. Pantano was penalized for the last-lap incident, and moved to the rear of the lead lap finishers in the final results.
James Hinchcliffe led the season-high 10 rookies in the field with a seventh-place performance. Another rookie, Simon Pagenaud, finished 15th after being called in as a last-minute replacement for Simona de Silvestro, who was delayed by visa issues and unable to participate in this weekend's event.
Will Power (#12 Team Penske Honda) started 1st, finished 1st, 5th victory of 2011 and 14th career win; first 1-2-3 finish for Team Penske since Nazareth 1994: "That is just about the best weekend you can ever have. Team Penske is back on top again. Like I said before the race, if we could finish the way we started [1-2-3], it would be the perfect weekend. Now we have a legitimate shot at the championship. This is one of those tracks I seem to click with. Road courses and street circuits are what I know, and what I'm good at, and I understand what I need to get from the car to go fast. [On three of the final four tracks being new to the series], I always enjoy going to new circuits, and that could potentially play to our strengths as we finish out the season."
Helio Castroneves (#2 Team Penske Honda) started 2nd, finished 2nd, equals his previous best finish of 2011 (also finished 2nd at Edmonton): "No question, it's been a roller-coaster season. We've definitely had our butt kicked a few times this year, but this is the best weekend of the year for the entire team. For me, it was a great race. Will [Power] was just a little bit quicker so we tried something a little different – pitted a little bit early for our run on the [harder compound] 'black' tires. But Will saved enough 'push to pass' [Honda overtake assist] and I couldn't do much. It's so rare to both start and finish 1-2-3, so I'm very happy for myself and the team."
Dario Franchitti (#10 Target Chip Ganassi Racing Honda) started 4th, finished 4th, 11th top-five finish of 2011, continues to lead the drivers' championship: "I tried several times to get Ryan [Briscoe] when he'd make a small mistake, but was never able to get [far enough] alongside to make a move. From qualifying on, Team Penske clearly had an advantage over both Scott [Dixon] and myself, particularly on the [softer] 'red' tires. The advantage we had at Mid-Ohio is clearly gone, for whatever reason. So we have some work to do before [the next two races at] Baltimore and Japan."
Roger Griffiths (Technical Director, Honda Performance Development) on today's race: "Today was an important milestone for us, it has now been two years since we've had an in-race engine failure for the Honda Indy V-8. Our last failure during a race, due to a chafed alternator wire, was here in 2009. Meanwhile, the championship contest is getting ever closer, which promises another exciting finish to the season, and we're looking forward to visiting a brand new venue, Baltimore, next weekend."

The longest night is one of blood and death, but there are many ways to die. The longest night is one of sin and a falling from grace, but there are many ways to fall. Bodies entwined, limbs twist and clutch; fingers dig crescent moons into sweaty flesh; teeth nip and graze and sink deep to leave possessive bruises. Lips seek the source of heat and longing, eager for union, for submission, for the chance to worship on bended knee. In this moment there is nothing but the joining of flesh and spirit, no love or desire greater than that which brings two together in the ancient rhythm of skin against skin. Thus wordlessly, amid only gasps and groans and the erratic cacophony of competing heartbeats, they melt with the heat of the sun and move with the pull of the moon. Entwined, they share the climax which washes over them with a shuddering force, a giving and receiving, a taking and leaving. The longest night is one of death, but tonight it is the little death, and they both partake.

#1781 – Summer Solstice 2016
Standing in the bedroom doorway, frozen: Tanim. Laying on the bed within, languid and smiling: Daren. Between them: the heady, noxious odor of gasoline.
"What's going on?" Tanim asks slowly, taking in the glistening bed sheets, the soaked carpet. Daren lifts his arm to take a drag on the cigarette balanced between two long fingers; his wet clothing clings to his thin frame. "It's so easy to mold the mind of a madman, isn't it?" he replies as idly as if commenting on the weather.
"What are you talking about?" White-knuckled, Tanim grips the doorframe as if torn between running and coming closer. "What have you done?" Daren exhales a stream of smoke and blinks dreamily. "I think you know."
"Come out of there," Tanim extends a hand, frowning, and steps over the threshold. His shoes sink into the wet carpet. "Careful," Daren waves the cigarette back and forth, the embers carving light trails in the dark. "I wouldn't take another step forward if I were you." He waits until Tanim has eased back before asking, "Does it anger you, that I got to it before you could?"
"You're not making any sense, darling," There is a note of pleading in Tanim's voice, but Daren continues as if his lover hasn't spoken. "What were you planning, anyway?" he wonders aloud. "A gun? Poison? Or perhaps something more intimate, like your bare hands?"
"You won't know now, will you?" Tanim's scowl is sudden and dark, his teeth bared like a predator whose prey has been stolen. Daren only sighs. "My loss, yes." He holds his arm out over the side of the bed, dangling the cigarette between two limp fingers. His gaze is quite clear now, no longer lethargic and amused, but the smile remains as he locks eyes with Tanim. "You might want to run now, beloved," he advises.
Tanim runs. Daren lets the cigarette fall.
1697 – Winter Solstice
It starts in an unfamiliar city, a maze of empty streets and gaping alleys and the sick yellow of dying streetlights. As he walks he can sense the presence pacing him, never close enough to glimpse in the darkness yet never far enough to lose track. He does not quicken his pace, only casually slips hands into pockets to grip the switchblade's cool metal. He knows better than to run from a predator of any species – and has no intention of becoming anything's prey. As he walks, trees begin to appear along the road and alleys, the leafless skeletons of deep winter. Snow begins to collect along the pavement and black branches; soon it covers the ground and drifts lazily from the sky. His feet crunch as they break through the top layer of ice. Still he walks, and still the presence keeps pace, its own footsteps silent. With a slow and subtle motion he removes his hands from his pockets, the knife hidden inside the cradle of his fingers.
Eventually the buildings are left behind and the forest becomes the landscape, bare trees and snow covered earth stretching into darkness in all directions. In the way of dreams, the streetlights continue in an unbroken line, their weak light offering only enough illumination to pass through the treacherous landscape safely. He follows the path of the lights as if in search of their destination, but all of his senses are focused on the creature moving out in the darkness. He can hear faint breathing now, coming first from his left, then his right, then behind and ahead. Whatever follows him moves through the thick snow with practiced ease. It is fast, he thinks. Is he faster?
A low growl rumbles in a throat too close for his comfort and he comes to a stop beneath one of the anachronistic streetlights. The cone of light flattens the surrounding shadows into a two-dimensional wall, but sight isn't the sense he relies on now; instead, he closes his eyes and strains for any sound beyond the soft hush of falling snow and the last notes of the growl. There is only silence… silence… silence… and then the nearly inaudible sound of a foot depressing the snowpack. Eyes snapping open as quickly as the blade in his hand, he whirls toward the sound and brings the knife up just as a hulking black wolf leaps from the darkness. For a moment they are almost one, man and wolf, white teeth descending and silver blade rising…
…and then the moment passes and they are falling past each other to collapse on opposite ends of the circle of light. Bleeding from long scratches to his face, neck, and shoulder, he stumbles to his feet and turns, blooded blade raised to ward off the next attack. But the next attack does not come, and will not. Across the circle, disturbed snow turns black-red around the unmoving body of the wolf and the beast's thick fur masks the gash with which the sharp little blade felled its foe. Seeing the hunter turned slain prey, he sinks in exhaustion to his knees once more in the snow. Overhead, the streetlights wink out one by one.
– – – –
Daren woke with the sharp awareness of someone used to assuming danger's nearness. He lay still for a few seconds, letting his senses process and report the all clear. His hands felt strange and he flexed them, noting his right gripped the knife kept always beside the bed. When he touched the fingertips of his left together he felt the tacky wetness of drying blood. Only now did he turn his head to the warm weight curled beneath the blankets at his side. Tanim lay motionless as if in a deep sleep.
[ And so another solstice passes. ]
#1606 – Summer Solstice
A living room in an apartment in a dark city of glass and steel. Battle lines drawn, Daren standing rigid on one side and Tanim the other. Interrogator and suspect.
"So what will it be?" Daren's voice flat, arms crossed. "Have you decided?"
"Yes." Tanim averts his eyes. Answer enough.
"You're going to do it, aren't you." Daren scowls, disgust in the curl of his lip, the narrowing of his dark eyes.
"It's complicated." Tanim's hands open and close at his side as if grasping for words. Daren doesn't allow him time to find them.
"Complicated!" A short, harsh laugh. No humor in it, only mockery and pain. "Oh yes, you would say that, after the promises you made."
Tanim, head flying up, "I never promised–"
"Please." Daren's hand cuts the air between them. "Lying doesn't become you, darling. If you respect me at all, you'll at least forgo deception."
"…fine." Tanim's shoulders slump, eyes turn away again. "I was wrong, and for that I am sorry. I thought we could fight this. I thought we could change the ending. But we can't." A glance up, beseeching, hopeful of understanding if not acceptance. "It's a cycle, we both know that. It's necessary–"
"Don't tell me she made you do it!" Daren's voice louder than ever before, teeth bared and finger pointed in accusation.
"What else would you have me do?" Anger now in Tanim's raised voice as well, an animal backed into a corner.
"I would have you choose me!" A step forward, snarling, all threat in the lithe form. "Or at least own your sin, you coward!"
Chaos, then. One lashes out first, or maybe the other. Fists falling, fingers clawing at flesh, raking eyes, brawn versus speed. Then the slim little blade, always somewhere on his person, and Tanim leaps back with a cry of pain. Blood running down his arm, down the knife gripped in Daren's hand. One heartbeat in between; before Tanim reaches, before the thunder. Before Daren, mouth open in silent shock, looks down to the blood stain spreading quickly across his chest.
He falls before Tanim can catch him.
Blood washes away battle lines. Tanim kneels, the gun forgotten, the argument likewise but for the glaze of rage and disappointment in Daren's eyes. Blood on his lips, he finds energy enough to draw breath, hiss, "This was your choice and no other's." Another breath, shallower. "Remember that." And a final one, a struggle but he manages. "I do not forgive you."
#1517 – Winter Solstice
"Need a light?"
Tanim whirled around, grabbing desperately again for the gun and aiming at a shadow by the balcony door which he had most certainly checked just a moment ago. From its depths a figure stepped, clad in a long black coat with a hood which concealed the wearer's face. Tanim scowled, leveling the revolver toward the hidden visage. "Fucking assassins. Can't you people use the front door for once?" The figure chuckled, but it was not a kind laugh. Nor was it an unfamiliar one. Before Tanim could speak the name burning his lips, two pale hands rose to fold back the hood and he found himself staring into eyes as dark and hard as the shadows which had just obscured them. He swallowed, fighting to keep the hand holding the revolver from trembling noticeably. "So. They finally sent you."
Daren shrugged languidly, his expression unreadable. "You've managed to kill the last three, and they were not novices. What did you expect?" A smile flickered over his thin lips. "But of course, you did expect this. Why else the fear? The paranoia? Those emotions are not becoming to someone so high in the Templar ranks."
"Skulking in the shadows is certainly becoming to you," Tanim spat. "Did they send you because they think I can't harm you? I can. I will, if I have to. If you make me."
"If you recall, I am the only one who can make you do anything," The assassin moved forward with a slow, easy stride, hands loose at his sides as if this were nothing more than an old lovers' spat. "And you so enjoyed the things I had you do…" He chuckled lowly as Tanim backed away, edging toward the open bedroom door in an attempt to keep as much distance between himself and Daren as possible. That Daren had not made a grab for the revolver yet was no comfort; Tanim had little hope he could hit him even at this distance, as fast as Daren was – not to mention the man would sense his intention before he ever fired and likely throw off his aim. He had to get out of the confines of the apartment. "I remember you rather enjoying them as well," Tanim quipped back, buying time as he came in line with the doorway. "And yet, here we are."
"Yes," The wry twist to Daren's mouth could not quite be called a smile. "Here we are." Without another word the assassin shot forward. Tanim fired rapidly; when he felt Daren's hand knock the revolver from his grip, he turned to flee toward the back of the apartment. Daren's cold laughter followed him as he burst through the private roof access door, though Daren himself did not seem to be in pursuit. He climbed the stairs two at a time, throwing open the heavy metal door at the top and stepping out into the chill night. Perhaps he could jump down to one of the adjacent roofs, or–
"Come, Tanim, this farce makes fools of us both. Stop running from your own desire," Tanim whirled around. Framed against the city lights, Daren's silhouette stood like a scrap of darkness atop the roof ledge. The assassin had not donned the iconic hood again, though Tanim found himself wishing he had; it was easier to fight back when his opponent was just another faceless enemy. Yet there could be no denying the history between them, and when Tanim spoke his voice lacked vehemence. "Desire?" He managed a bitter laugh. "Yes, this is what I want; to die at the hands of someone who once loved me and now hunts me like an animal."
Daren held his hands out, encompassing the whole of their stage. "And yet you ran up to the roof, from whence there is no escape, instead of down to the street." Tanim had no snide response to that; turning his back to Daren, he surveyed the glittering city skyline and tried to ignore the accuracy of Daren's observation. An inexplicable weariness settled over him and the urge to flee numbed to a dull ache of regret.
"Aren't you tired of running, Tanim?" Daren's voice issued from directly behind him, though Tanim had not even heard the assassin step down from the ledge. "They will never cease hunting you. Better that it be myself who does the deed, don't you think? You know I will be quick." Tanim shuddered at the familiar sensation of warm breath against his neck but refused to glance back. Instead, he closed his eyes and shook his head ruefully. "I suppose it was always going to come to this end, wasn't it."
"We are what we are," Daren replied, and Tanim imagined he could almost hear a note of remorse in the words. He squeezed his eyes shut tighter as cool fingers slid along the line of his jaw, hesitating over but never quite touching his lips. It was all he could do not to lean back into Daren's embrace, let alone pull away or manage a struggle. He wondered if things might have been different, had they not been driven apart by this ancient enmity. Somehow, he doubted it, and that thought gave him a queer comfort.
When the assassin spoke next, his voice was a low murmur against Tanim's ear. "Requiescat in pace, frater." Daren's hidden blade made no sound as it slid from its sheath against his arm, nor as he drew it across Tanim's neck in a single swift movement.

#1429 – Summer Solstice
high above the city, the world, if it must be done then just let it be done spoken with a weary sigh to the chill night, silent night, one way or another, what does it matter? holiest night and the sun long set, where is the sun? by my hand or his, blood or bruises, or just one simple step off this edge no sun, just the darkness and the wind tugging at hair, fingers, clothing like a lover's supplication but I don't want simple, not this time gentle yet insistent, urging him to take that one step into oblivion no, I want to fight, I want to rebel, even if it means falling I just want to live a different kind of lover's supplication as the hand closes around his wrist, if you fight, I fight at your side and the wind picks up, fate demanding submission to the ritual death, howling for blood, how dare they defy? but I choose the dawn not this time, not this night, destiny denied as the Moon steps down and the Sun releases his wrist, kneeling in allegiance, adoration and abdication, and I choose you, always
[ I have a number of new followers, so to those of you who are new to my characters, here! Have a tragic solstice myth! ]
#1339 – Winter Solstice
Do you know why the Moon first rose up to slay his lover the Sun? Some say it was sorrow or jealousy or fear that moved his hand, or that the Moon had gone mad in the darkness and did not know himself again until he knelt with the dying Sun in his arms. There may be a fragment of truth in all of these – does love not encompass all such emotions? – but I have glimpsed another sliver of truth. Perhaps the Moon raised his blade not to punish or sacrifice his lover the Sun, but to spare him. To save him. Perhaps the Moon wanted only a way for them to never be parted, to cease the chase which kept the lovers forever a horizon's length away, and did what he must to change their fate. Can you deny that it is better to perish in your lover's arms, rather than never feel their embrace at all? At least in death the Sun remained with the Moon, as the Moon would remain with the Sun when his turn came to embrace the blade and spill his silver blood. An ill fate, yes, but no worse than the agony of constant separation.
You must hold tight to the thing you love, for it can be taken from you without warning. Do you understand, now? I cannot allow you to be taken from me. It is better, this, than leaving our luck to fate. I spared you the blade, though, and I doubt you ever tasted the powder. (Though I wonder, darling, if even knowing, you would have drank anyway?) The Moon required suffering for his pact, but not I. You need not bleed, darling, only drift to sleep and fear neither pain nor loneliness; I am with you in this, as in all things, and I will hold you safe. You are mine, now, and only mine.

"Look at you," Professor River Song, Archaeologist had breathed, "You're young." He wasn't, not even then he wasn't. But to her he was, looking older but with younger eyes than those of her Doctor.
Very few people understood that, how he could look so young and be so old.
Jack understood it, but Jack was, well, Jack, and that was very complicated. He regretted not having been there for Jack during the 456 incident. Jack had needed him - the Earth had needed him - and he hadn't been there. He'd been on Mars at the time, even though that Mars was decades in the future from Jack's encounter with the 456, so timey-wimey, and... and the less he thought about that incident on Mars the better. He shuddered. Time Lord Victorious indeed, who did he think he was?
He'd thought he was better than them, that's what he'd thought. He was smarter than humans, and stronger, and he could see things they couldn't. But that didn't make him better... it just made the mistakes he made bigger. He'd heard a phrase on the telly once when he was on Earth, Disaster Magnet, and that described him pretty well, and he had been a bit taken aback to learn that it had described a character from an Earth comic book. Humans were so odd, even their mythological figures had horrible flaws. Perhaps that was why he liked them so much. They were (as a group) willing to forgive him anything, because they saw him as one of their own, but bigger. And Idris had said that she did it deliberately, brought him to where he was needed rather than where he wanted to go. So maybe they hadn't needed him during the 456 crisis.
The thought was simultaneously heartening and depressing, so he brought his mind back to the people - the people who understood.
Rory understood, sometimes, when he was the Last Centurion. And Rory - of all his former and current and probably future Companions - Rory was the least afraid to tell him when he was behaving... inhumanly. He was inhuman, there was no question, but he needed his human companions to tell him when he was being inhumane. Rory - and to some extent Donna, before he'd had to do the horrible thing he'd done to her - possessed the ability to tell him (as harshly as necessary) when he showed signs of turning into the Time Lord Victorious again. He loved Rory for that, and hated him, and he was sure the feeling was mutual. Amy had had too much faith in him to call him out, except the time when... well. He had gone all selfish on her then too. Rory had taken care of it, as he always had and always would, the Boy Who Waited waiting for the Girl Who Waited. They were so human, even when Rory had been the Last Centurion.
Not like him.
The man who still lived in the back of his head, the one he called Nine, he'd been almost distressingly human, for all he viewed humans as stupid apes. Nine'd had cause. But Nine... he'd been so hard to be, so angry and so... broken. If it hadn't been for Rose... if it hadn't been for Rose there might well have been another genocide, this time of the humans of planet Earth, because the rage and the guilt and the pain had been too much for Nine. Rose had been able to understand as well as any short-lived human could, and she'd been exactly what Nine had needed, she'd been soft and kind and innocent in many ways, but with a steel core that had led her to call Nine out on the most inhumane of his behaviour. Nine had loved Rose, in a very human way, and that love had kept him sane. At least... as sane as Nine ever was. By human standards all the Time Lords were nutters, but Nine had been insane even by Gallifreyan standards.
Maybe. Gallifrey had after all had very... broad standards of what constituted sanity. After all, the Master had been driven insane as a child by the elders of his own people in order to save themselves centuries later. And the vast majority of the Time Lords hadn't considered their brethren to be crazy. They were a selfish race, the Time Lords - he himself as much as any - and they viewed the extermination of entire peoples as simply expedient. Most of them didn't feel any shame or guilt. Perhaps that was another reason he loved and hated Rory and Donna and Rose and all the others who had been able to make him see his own selfishness. Maybe that was part of why humans were his favorite aliens; their emotional range was so complex for such a young and low-dimensional race. Not like his own people, who had only anger and fear and cruelty and selfishness. Oh, the Time Lords had the more... positive emotions... but they let themselves be constantly overridden by selfishness and lust for power.
And maybe that's what the humans did for him. They kept him from being too Time-Lordy for his own good.
Most of them were gentle about it... until pushed too far. One of the other men in the back of his mind, the most recent one, Ten, he had pushed some too far. Not so much Rose herself, who was now safely with a meta-crisis duplicate - a human clone - of Ten in another universe, not by then, but Martha, and Donna and... but no, he'd already decided not to think about Mars. Ten had also been considered attractive by human females (and Jack - but then Jack was... hmm... even less sexually discriminating than most 51st-century humans), as just about everyone tried to kiss Ten at one point or another. He felt bad about Martha; she'd been infatuated with Ten as many women - and Jack - had done, and it had been for the best that she had gone her own way. Reinette... Ten had honestly loved her, in an odd historical-figures-are-cool sort of way.
Even Donna - though the only kiss from Donna had been the life-saving kind rather than the romantic kind - even Donna had agreed with River in the Library that Ten was a Pretty Boy... and she'd said so rather quickly. He'd loved Donna, one of the few of his Companions who treated him as though... as though he were an errant younger sibling rather than a Time Lord centuries older than she. "Because sometimes you need someone to stop you," she'd said, and she'd been right. So right. But Ten had been forced to mind-wipe Donna or she would have died, burned up with the force of the Time Vortex inside her head. He still felt guilty for that, although he knew it was for the best. She had pleaded with Ten - begged - not to do this to her. When he closed his eyes he could see her face, imploring him please don't make me go back! He wished he could have helped her, taken the Vortex without the memories, but it was impossible. For a human. Her brain simply didn't work in that many dimensions. Not like River's...
River had died there in that Library. And Ten, bloody damn Ten, hadn't known her and she had sacrificed herself to spare him and over four thousand others. Looking back, he felt that it hadn't been simply noble self-sacrifice. He knew River now, as intimately as one being could know another, mind and body and soul, and sacrifice for strangers wasn't really her style, even then when she was older. But she... she loved him and he understood now the agony she had felt when she realised Ten had no idea who she was. It was the same pain that he himself felt now, knowing he must use his lovely River to kill himself and save Time. That torment had mingled sacrifice and suicide in River. And now he would have to cause her more pain. He would have to hurt her, his beloved River Song, and she wouldn't know him well enough to understand why.
And the young man with the ancient eyes decided it was time to end this farewell tour, and he sighed and climbed wearily into the blue box.

Armed Taliban fighters who launched a bloody gun fight at Karachi airport leaving at least 28 dead today warned: "This is only the beginning."
Around 10 militants dressed as security staff and carrying bags full of grenades and ammo blasted their way in, planning to take over planes and blow them up.
Police and guards battled them into a hangar in a five-hour gun and bomb fight that sparked a huge fire as terrified passengers were trapped in jets on the tarmac.
Of the 28 left dead after the carnage in Pakistan's biggest city on Sunday night, 18 were said to be airport staff and the other 10 were the militants.
Extremist group Shahidullah Shahid, which wants to turn Pakistan into a Taliban state, said it launched the attack in revenge for the death of leader Hakimullah Mehsud, who was killed in a US drone attack last year.
After the onslaught, a spokesman for the group ranted: "This is a message to the Pakistan government that we are still alive to react to the killings of innocent people in bomb attacks on their villages.
"The main goal was to damage the government, including hijacking planes and destroying state installations."
Politician Farooq Sattar was trapped on a plane that was on the runway when the militants opened fire.
He said: "They have told us we are safer on board and so the doors will stay shut. But this aircraft is full of fuel and so are the other planes here.
"If God forbid, the terrorists come here, then there could be a terrible fire."
One militant with a bomb strapped on him tried to hijack a vehicle at the airport – called Jinnah International – to get to a plane, but he was shot by a guard.
There were a number of explosions at the terminal, used for VIP flights and cargo, and today authorities revealed the huge stash of weapons and ammo taken from the dead attackers' backpacks.
Minister Qaim Ali Shah said: "They were well trained. Their plan was very well thought out. They intended to destroy some aircraft and buildings, but they were not able to."
Pakistan International Airlines worker Sarmad Hussain had to flee his first floor office with a colleague who broke his leg as he dropped out of the building.
Sarmad said: "I heard big blasts and then there were heavy gunshots. There seemed to be firing everywhere."

What Happens Next?
It appears that pessimism has permeated our society. After more than a decade of flat markets, declining housing prices, and—quite simply—bad news, it seems we have succumbed to this "new normal." The credit crisis continues to loom large. Europe is in decline. Will Greece even survive? And to make sure that everyone is acutely aware of all the problems, cable news, talk radio, and newspapers give us constant updates on the dismal and declining state of the world. What if they are all wrong?
Have we been blinded by it all? Are we extrapolating the present? Have we failed to peer around the corner and see that there is a new engine of growth in its very early stages? And it is accelerating! Is it possible that we have seen this all before but are so stymied by what lies behind us that we can't see what is growing in front of us? The history books are full of examples of previous technology revolutions: the building of canals, the Industrial Revolution, the railroad revolution, electrification, mass production, and most recently, the information revolution.
Righting Your Book: Doing Business the Way Your Clients Want Business Done
The business of financial advice has changed continually over the last 30 years. When Mark passed his Series 7, the business cards read "stock broker." Then came the titles "investment advisor" and "financial planner." Today we are expected to be comprehensive wealth managers. But this isn't just a name change on a business card; it's a fundamental change in the way we run our business and market our services. Now that the recent financial crisis has created even more dramatic change in our market, more than ever we need to ask ourselves, "What changes am I making to change with it?"

The most often discussed topic was, "Out of all the financial advisors in the United States (roughly 600,000 of them) what is it that you do that makes you one of the best?" Over the years of interacting with these advisors and evaluating what makes them successful Mark has pinpointed the common traits of the most successful advisors in the country.
Mark Zinder is a seasoned financial professional and keynote speaker with a unique gift for making the complicated clear as he examines the trends and ideas actively reshaping business today.

If you though the first half of 2016 was awesome, wait till you know what's coming up in the second half!
This year has flown by hasn't it? But honestly that's case with every year where time flies by like it's on roller blades or something. But not without showing us a good time in cinema. The first year of 2016 saw some great commercials releases like Nagajuna's Oopiri, Vijay's Theri, Allu Arjun's Sarrainodu, Nayanthara's Idda Namma Aalu, Suriya's 24 and of course Rajinikanth's Kabali! But what do we have in store in the second half? Is the latter half going to be as exciting or even more? Well, we can list out the upcoming films and you can decide for yourself then! So here goes:
Release date: 5th August 2016
Thirunaal starring Jiiva and Nayanthara is all set to release on August 5. The leading pair are coming together after almost a decade, so fans are definitely excited about that. Jiiva will once again portray a non- glamorous character which is what made a him a star in the first place. After two flops, a lot is riding on Thirunaal for Jiiva.
Release date: 19th August 2016
Thodari starring Dhanush and Keerthy Suresh has got everyone eager for its release. From the looks of the trailer, it promises to have all elements-romance, comedy and adventure. It's about an adventure on a train journey form Delhi to Chennai.The movie is all set to release on August 12th. Hoping the Independence Day weekend will work for the movie.
Babu Bangaram
Release date: 12th August 2016
Babu Bangaram starring Venkatesh Daggubati and Nayanthara finally has a release date after a series of postponed dates. The movie is primarily a love story, but since it has our action star Venkatesh, we can except a lot of bashing up and punching! But here's the twist-he's a cop who actually feels sorry for the people he bashes up. Say what? And then there's Nayanthara who he falls in love but she's not the one to give in easily. The Tamil version of the movie will also release on the same day.
Inspector Dawood Ibrahim
Release date: 12th August 2016
This movie starring Jayasuriya has already caught everyone's attention for its unusual title. Dawood a name we usually associate with crime will now be int he form of a fearless inspector whose sole mission is to beat up goons back and blue. He is then sent on a mission to the border of Karnatake where he faces a challenges that will test his wit, courage and strength. So ready to catch our comedy genius Jayasurya in an actioner on 12th August?
Janatha Garage
Release date: 2nd September ( tentative)
This is easily one of the most awaited movie of 2016 considering it has a star studded cast-Jr. NTR, Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Nithya Menen and Mohanlal. It promises to be a slick, fast paced action with awesome music by Devi Sri Prasad. Nithya's role has been kept under wraps while Samantha will play Jr.NTR's IITian sweetheeart. This movie is going to be a sure shot treat for Nandamuri and Lalettan fans as Jr. NTR and Mohanlal whoop everyone's ass. The movie is most likely to release on September 2nd.
Iru Mugan
Release date: 9th September (tentative)
After the release of the trailer today, we are hell excited for the movie starring Chiyaan Vikram, Nayanthara and Nithya Menen. It shows Vikram in two contrasting roles-One the hero and the other the villain! So, Vikram and Vikram to have serious takkar! Of course, we can't forget Nayanthara and Nithya Mene who are looking absolutely gorgeous in the movie. The trailer has majorly upped our excitement but we will have to wait till September 9th to watch the movie.
Release date: Expected in September 2016
So the Oppam trailer starring Mohanlal released in Kerala along with Kabali. He plays a visually challenged character who gets involved in a crime and then begins to sense the criminal lurking around him. With this movie, the Priyadarshini-Mohanlal duo are back with this thriller. The movie doesn't have a confirmed release date but it's all set to hit theatres in September around the time of Onam.
release date: 7th October 2016
Remo starring Siva Karthikeyan will have the actor play a female nurse. What we aren't sure is, whether Karthikeyan will be playing a man disguised as a woman or a transgender. He will star opposite Keerthy Suresh. The music has already created a stir for its groovy, catchy tunes. This comedy is all set to release on October 7!
Release date: Not confirmed but expected to release in October
This movie is the remake of the Tamil movie Thani Oruvan. It stars Ram Charan, Rakul Preet, Aravind Swamy and Navdeep Singh. Ram Charan will be playing a cop in the movie. His makeover for the film has been highly appreciated by fans. He's looking lean, mean and sexy. The movie is directed by Surender Reddy. They have already wrapped the first schedule of the film in Kashmir. In his first live session on Facebook, Ram Charan revealed that the teaser will be out on 15th August and and that the movie might see an October release.
Kaatru Veliyidal
Release date: 12th December 2016 9 (tentative)
This movie starring Aditi Rao Hydari and Karthi has created immense excitement! After so long, Mani Ratnam is back to doing what he does best-directing a love story. Karthi will be playing a pilot while aditi will be playing his love interest. The first look definitely created crazy curiosity and got everyone eager for the film. The team ahs already wrapped its first schedule in OOTY and now are set to begin its second schedule. As of now the movie is set to release on December 12th 2016.
Release date: Not out but expected to release in September 2016
The trailer of Oozham was released along with Mammooty's Kasaba. Directed by Jeetu Jospeh of Drishyam fame. The movie is yet another trailer that talks about revenge, time and memories. The racy, fast-paced trailer promises to be engrossing thriller. The movie is all set to release in September 2016.
Release date: Not out but expected to release in September 2016
The comedy horror starring Prabhu Dheva and Tamannaah Bhatia is turning out to more intriguing than expected. It's because both teaser so far have shown Prabhu Dheva and Tamannaah pull off some killer dance moves! The movie also stars Amy Jackson and Sonu Sood. We are wondering what the horror element will be like. As of now, the movie is set to have a September release.
Vishwaroopam 2

After being delayed due to unavoidable circumstances, the sequel to one of the most popular films is finally set to release in October 2016. The movie stars Rahul Bose, Pooja Kumar and Andrea Jeremiah. While the first one was shot in the States, the sequel was shot in India.

FBS: trade recommendation for GBP/USD
By Tatyana Norkina, FBS analyst
Strong bearish sentiment has seized the GBP/USD market after the pair failed to overcome the resistance at $1.6730 yesterday. Immediately after the Asian session the pair has broken below the bottom of the Cloud support on H1, and triggered safety stops of the short-term buyers. This led to the collapse of the currency pair by more than 100 pips to the 66th figure.
Ichimoku indicator. The downward trend continued both on H1 and H4. On both timeframes the Ichimoku indicator is set strictly bearish. At the same time, on H1 the pair is strongly oversold, which caused a short-term recovery of the currency pair to $1.6640.
Technical levels: support - $1.6510, $1.6590; resistance - $1.6620, $1.6640.
Trading recommendations:
1. Sell - $1.6640; SL - $1.6660; TP1 - $1.6590; TP2 - $1.6510.
2. Buy - $1.6590; SL - $1.6570; TP1 - $1.6640.

From KF6 Training in San Francisco: a practice blog
Everyone is this is room is an experienced traveler. Collectively, we've ventured to the farthest corners of the globe. Most have spent time in the developing world. Yet, the excitement level is off the charts as we prepare for our adventures. I'm humbled by the extraordinary company I find myself so privileged to among. The learning challenge surpasses my expectations; there's so much to learn! This the type of volunteer challenge I've been seeking. One that satisfies a profound social mission while providing a meaningful life expereince and a rare opportunity to get under the skin of an entirely different culture. Like any adventure, I have goals but little concept of what to expect. Things will unfold as they will. But I must say that JD (our exceptionally talented trainer) and team are doing an amazing job turning us from civilians to capable Kiva Fellows — these guys are he real deal! What an impressive organization!
I'll be traveling to Uganda on October 1 to work BRAC. My excitement is tempered only by stress caused by the long list of things I still need to get done before leaving for 3 months. It seems every item I cross off my list of things to do, 2 or 3 new ones are added. It's endless! Visa's, vaccinations, lodging, research, PA2 practice, waterproof ziplock bags, extra batteries, etc – ugh!
I hope I will be a great Fellow. I hope I will advance the ball, if just a bit, in the war against poverty. I hope I will return a better man – wiser, more humble and compassionate and with greater clarify as to my purpose and priorities. And I hope I can find a job quickly in January!
In haste. My next blog entry will come from Uganda, sometime in the first half of October. I'm tryinig to imagine what that will be like …./>

Vurdering av denne eiendommen
We hat great days at Carolines flat. She ist very very nice, helpful and uncomplicated. We felt welcome from the first minute. We arrived late in the night and Caroline had warmed the bed with a hot-water bottle.
The room and the bathroom were clean and the bed comfortable. The chimney is beautiful so you don't have to be cold. We would recommend this room to all our friends and family going to London!! The Tube Station West Hampstead is a 10 minutes walk from the flat (Zone 2). You can reach all sights very quick.
Thanks a lot for the great time! :-)
Caroline is a very nice, kind, helpful and uncomplicated host. She´ll give you all the informations you need. The house is wonderful situated and exactly described at wimdu.The room is lovely and the bed is comfortable.There´s a wonderful roof terrace with a dreamlike view over the city. All in all it was a pleasure to stay there. But I feel sad about, that I did not have enough time in London. I enjoyed every moment in this house together with Caroline and her daughter. Any time when I´ll visit London again, I like to stay there again. Thank you very much Caroline.
Visiting Londen with my daughter was a fantastic experience. Wonderful city, so much to see. Staying with Caroline was also very pleasant, she is a very kind and concerned host. It was a 10 minutes walk to the station, from where on we travelled to the center of Londen.
We really enjoyed it, and going back to Londen, we would stay with her again.
Thankt you.
Caroline was a wonderful host! She is just lovely.
She has a little terrace to sit on and there is enough space to have some privacy.
The area is a calm part of Londen. Definately a must go
What a fantastic holiday! We had a great time in West Hampstead:
very hospitable host, lovely room, convenient location with nice restaurants and close to all kinds of public transport. We would go there again any time!!
It was a pleasure to stay here. The place is very good connected to the city centre by bus as well by tube. Caroline was the perfect host, very friendly and helpful.
We had a very delightfull stay in Caroline's appartment. It is lovely, warm and confortable, good located, close the subway and station. Caroline is a very nice person,ready to help. We had very pleasant moments with her.
We are ready to come back here the next time
I had to cancel my reservation because of my revised travel plans to leave from Amsterdam instead of Brussels. That placed me too far away from this home to make my stay convenient. Caroline was gracious to allow me the change days before my arrival.
Caroline oh Caroline, what a most amazing host and what a most wonderful place to have stayed! All I dreamt off. A great House, the way I love it. Art everywhere, wood, stairs, not new or barren oh no, full of books and soul. A great bed a great mattress, blankets. Tea at one's disposal and oh the fireplace, lit by a single strike of a match bringing so much warmth and coziness. This was THE place for me . We had a real heart to heart intuitive encounter full of joy and laughter. Her daughter of 15 Elsie is a love too. I have no words (or a thousand) to describe the calm and peace of mind, the sound sleep and the wonderful wonderful stay I had with Miss Caroline Oulton in West Hampstead (Plus that she is a great writer of books :))

While I am definitely no expert in this area, I have compiled my top tips to help improve your mood at those times you're feeling blue, which are easy to do and can be done almost anywhere by anyone – usually without having to look like a fool either.
It seems like we skipped autumn this year and we are now straight into winter. It's around this time of the year, with days getting shorter and shorter, the bitter coldness, and mornings becoming a valiant foe once again that it becomes harder to be as happy and positive as you really are.
The list below may appear to have some repetition, but I believe each point to be distinct enough of an action that it deserves to have its own entry. This is by no means a complete and perfect guide, merely what I know to work for me from my experience:
- Exercise – really properly for a few minutes
- Remember a happy time and place, be there
- Just smile for a bit, force it, whatever just smile
- Breath. Consciously. Maybe close your eyes
- Think of something that makes you laugh
- Consider other people – in thoughts or with action
1. Exercise
This is great for so many reasons; distracting your mind, improving fitness so your body can work better at removing toxins/hormones and other chemicals, and releasing feel good endorphins to name a few. Depending on your mood and location you can exercise however you want. I feel better after 10 minutes of intense exercise in the spare room over an hour out walking. Of course long walks can be great for letting your head clear itself, as long as you don't wallow in negativity. So get up and move. It's that simple!
2. Memories
Probably the most amazing thing I learned in trying to boost my mood is that your brain doesn't distinguish at all between experiencing something happy now and thinking about a time when you were happy before. Now that you know this, cast yourself into a cherished childhood memory, a stupid college night out, when you aced that test, when you won a game, or when you spent a night curled up on the couch with someone. Amazing right? It's that simple!
3. Smiling
OK, so the first thing to note is that I get it, when you are feeling blue the idea of smiling sounds alien. But it really is this easy. Not only does setting your facial muscles to make it look like you're smiling trick your brain into releasing the same chemicals as if you were naturally smiling, it will also cause the people around you to smile and feel happier themselves, which then returns to you creating a positive feedback loop that has you all grinning like Cheshire cats. Try it right now. It's that simple! 🙂
4. Breathing
Rather than include meditation here – which is something I strongly recommend everyone practice in their own lives – I will simply describe how breathing can boost your mood. When we are depressed, anxious, etc., we tend to take quick, shallow breaths without any pause in between to allow our lungs do their thing. By consciously (manual) breathing, you can reduce your heart-rate and restore a good balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide to your bloodstream (and brain too!). To do this, simply take slow deep breaths in through your nose, hold for a second, slowly breath out through your mouth, then hold for another second or two while your lungs fully empty. Repeat until you are calm, relaxed and happy. You can even pair this with happy memories and smiling if you're brave enough to feel that good. Oooommm… It's that simple!
5. Humour
The equation here is as basic as it gets: Laughing = Feeling Happy = Laughing = Feeling Happy = Laughing …., you see where I'm going here, right? Just like smiling around others can create a positive feedback loop, so can simply laughing to yourself (and it's even better if you laugh with your friends). By watching something you find funny, for example, you will naturally smile while laughing (whether out loud or to yourself), which makes you feel better, which makes you laugh and smile more. Taking a short break from what you're doing to read some jokes, hear a story or watch a clip will have you back to yourself in no time.
I don't know what you find funny, so I'm not going to suggest specifics – you should know what makes you giggle. Find some websites that make you laugh. It doesn't matter what they are, just bookmark them together in folder that you name something that will appeal to you when you need them the most. E.g. Pick Me Ups, LOLs, Beat the Blues, or maybe even You're Awesome.
"Roses are red
That part is true
But violets are purple
Not fucking blue"
As the 'joke' above shows, it doesn't even have to be very funny. Just amusing will do.
It's that simple!
6. Consideration
This is similar to Memories, however that is more nostalgic whereas this is in the present. Consideration can be achieved through actions or thoughts. By thinking about the people in your life who sacrifice for you, care for you, or by writing a letter, helping someone out, you will feel better, as you should. Remember people consider you, so consider people too. Guess what? It's that simple!
Bonus tips;
- Stop negative thoughts as soon as they appear (meditation teaches this better than anything else).
- Learn to quickly recognise when your mood declines. Catch it quick and it's easy to fix.
- Stay away from backlit screens / artificial light when possible.
- Embrace nature. Get outdoors, sunlight is incredibly valuable and completely free (when it's there).
- Your diet is a big influencer of your mood, so eat fresh healthy unprocessed food always.
- Don't run out the door in the morning. Wake up early and do something you enjoy first thing.
- Expose yourself to bright light for 20-30 minutes in the morning.
- Most importantly, just realise that your mood changes, and you can change it, if you try.
In conclusion, the power – or decision, depending on how you look at it – is entirely in your hands to either do nothing or to stop, think, and overcome the moments when you're feeling Blue without the Chief.
