Please confirm that you want to add Be Ready for your Lucky Break | Acceleration Kit for Actors to your Wishlist.
This course is a combination of videos, audios, pdfs and exercise to help you accelerate your acting career. You may just be starting out or have been in the industry for many years and feeling a little stuck.
This course is designed to help you create the career of your dreams on your terms. So many decisions are purely subjective e.g. what is a good headshot? Well that depends, what is the purpose of your headshot? This step by step guide will help you create an action plan to put you back in the driver's seat.
Some of the content covered:
Identifying your version of success | Agents | Honing your casting technique | Building rapport with creatives | Daily actions you can take when the phone isn't ringing | Networking | Being proactive rather than just waiting | Identifying your cast type | Strategies to keep you sharp and ready for the next opportunity.
The course is broken down in 9 modules filled with comprehensive content. There are also a plethora of bonus videos; interviews with experts and quick fire '5 strategies' videos.
"One of the best things I've done for my acting career was getting in touch with Nicky. She has given me a better understanding of how the industry works and also the positive energy to build my action plan. The personal image guide I've got from her was a tremendous help and now I present myself in a more professional way. I would recommend Nicky to anybody who is starting up acting and needs a plan, to anybody who gets stuck along the way, or to anybody who needs the boost and advice of how to get back on top of things."
This course can be taken at your own pace and worked through as a body of work or dipped into whenever needed. I often talk about momentum and taking action every day and this course provides plenty of opportunities to become productive daily.
This course is crucial as an actor as it is important to take control of your career. Once you get into the realms of 'waiting to see what happens' often the opportunities don't arise. This course will help you become more strategic and focused so you are spending your time and money concentrating on the activities that will ensure you get closer to your ultimate career goal.
You can revisit whenever you choose. As an actor you are ever evolving, there is always something you can do and there is always another layer to uncover.
"Quoting one of Nicky's mottos 'every meeting matters', this is certainly one meeting, I shall never forget. I have found my own Fairy God Mother. Thank you Nicky!"
So, let's get started...
In each section, I have delivered the content in a pdf format and an audio.
In the introduction, I share with you a little of my story and my enthusiasm for the industry we are in.
Perhaps you are beginning this course with a view to reclaim your passion for the industry or just need more tools. You are in safe hands.

Don't be afraid to expand your mind. Concentrate on your vision. Don't get lost in the 'how' and 'the process' - just get clear on the detail.
Listen to the audio. When completing this section, be sure to scribble as you listen. Don't worry about writing down fully formed ideas, simply note any thoughts or key phrases. By the end of this section, you will have a clear idea of what your 'ideal career' will look like. Actors can make the process harder for themselves by being vague and being 'open to anything'. Here you will start to design your own version of success.

On the second listen, grab a piece of paper and a pen and start to jot down some ideas. Finally, once you have collected some ideas, simply transfer on to your BE | DO | HAVE worksheet.
Sometimes as an actor, it can be difficult to be reflective or honest. However it is crucial to our success. As the famous quote by Henry Ford states; "If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got.". So dig deep, raise your awareness and start to delve.

Every actor has their own personalised strategies for success, whether they know it consciously or not. In this section you will discover/revisit yours. You will be able to connect with them at any time and make your success story work for you practically.
Accessibility and presence is so much more prevalent nowadays. However the internet and social media must be used in the right way, not only by industry standards but in an authentic way for the individual.
In this section, we cover branding, building a website, social media profiles and how you can maximise your exposure and talents for industry professionals.
Listen to the audio. Time to get clear on your brand- what is your message? What can others expect? Are you sharing the intended message?
Listen to the audio. Perhaps you have been procrastinating about building a website or joining social media platforms, I will share with you my tips to help you get started or increase engagement and productivity.

Working through this workbook will help you to identify your brand and establish your plan of action to visibility.
I was lucky enough to interview my good friend Lucy Sheridan. Lucy is a coach specialising in comparison but also had a background in branding. Listen in to our conversation to gain Lucy's insight on how to remain comparison free, especially online and create your own version of success.
Being an actor requires momentum. Many actors I know snap into action as soon as the call from their agent comes through, however your work as an actor should be a craft that is nurtured.
Many actors I meet say they don't know what to do in between. So they end up doing nothing and then finding auditions unsuccessful. There are so many ideas to choose from in this section, so dive in and start to schedule them to make them happen.
Listen to the audio and put yourself in the mindset of 'What else could I try' and 'How could I make this work'. Don't rest at 'I've tried everything', keep exploring.
Listen to the audio
Or if you would prefer, download the PDF or combine the two.
Explore what could work with your schedule and financial situation. Don't assume you don't have the resources or wait until that perfect time. Simply concentrate on what you could do now.
The world of agents can be difficult to fathom for many actors. Many I speak to struggle to communicate, collaborate and coordinate as they are afraid to get it wrong. Having been an agent, I can offer an insiders view behind the scenes.
The agent/actor relationship is crucial to success so in this section we will be looking at communication, sharing of skills, building a strategy and how to work with agent that has the same set of objectives as you.
Be sure to write some notes as you listen to this. Notice what you notice- what language do you use around your agent? How do you communicate with them? Are you a strong team member? How do you speak about when you are out and about? Time to get super honest.
Listen to the audio. Remember to remain future focused, rather than disheartened about what has happened. Become optimistic and concentrate on what you could create.
Or if you would prefer, download the PDF or combine the two.
Your version on what a successful relationship with an agent is completely unique. This workbook will help you identify what you want and what is missing so you can create an action plan moving forward.
The world of 'getting an agent' can seem a huge mountain to climb. This bonus video will introduce you to a process, one which will support the other materials. I want to encourage you to stand out, to go the extra mile and add amazing value.
Being 'cast ready' is essential as an actor, you never know what is going to be thrown at you. This section is all about being prepared to have a good meeting every time. For me, it is never about one job, it is about setting your standard as an actor- someone who is reliable, dedicated and consistent. I will be helping you to uncover how you work best so you show the best version of you every time.
Listen to the audio. I want you to be quite ruthless in this section. Abandon any behaviour that doesn't serve you. This doesn't mean you have to be selfish or an unlikeable person, it is simply about focusing your skills so you show you are available and suitable to take the role if offered.
Listen to the audio
Often with castings, going the extra mile can be very easy to do and very easy not to do. I want you to be one of the ones who takes the leap and is willing to step outside of your comfort zone and think creatively. In this workbook, you will generate some ideas.
I was very lucky to interview Matt Selby, one of London's most popular and busiest commercial casting directors. Keep approaching every bit of content with fresh eyes, there is always something you can learn.
Creating a strong, workable portfolio is key to your success.
In this section, I will help you to put together a portfolio that represents you. Often a portfolio can be stifling, so I have broken down the process so you have a to do list to follow. There isn't one perfect portfolio- everyone will have their own opinions, however I want to uncover how you can communicate with casting directors, clearly expressing who you are and where your skills lie.
This audio will help you to think about your head shots, cv and showreel in a new and innovative way. I will share with you my preparation process to ensure you gain successful results. There is so much more detail in creating a success portfolio, than you would think. So using this method will help you break down the process.

This workbook is tailored for you to break down the process, to gain clarity on what works for you and create a solid action plan
My firm belief is that going to the next level requires hard work, tenacity and focus. Often, in the press, we hear about overnight success, however if you look at the subtext, it is likely the actor has bee grafting for years.
This section is all about taking practical steps and consistent action. You decide when you are ready for more, completing the work behind the scenes will show the industry you are ready too.
Remember to take baby steps. Don't leave change until 'when you become more famous' or 'when you have money' start the process now and figure out how you can move forward immediately.
Or if you would prefer, download the PDF or combine the two.
This workbook will help you plot your 'next level' strategy. Break down the process and decide what you are going to do, but also make you assign time and space to complete the tasks.
Juggling finances, remaining flexible and being available for last minute opportunities can be a difficult blend for many actors. In this video, I will share with you my strategies to help you create a work/life balance on your terms, that will allow you to live comfortably but also invest in your career.
There are many pros and cons to accepting an expenses job. But how do you know which to take? This video will provide you with a plan to follow to make sure your next project is aligned with your future career path.
I am a coach (founder of Be Ready Coaching), actress, author and full time creative. I am passionate about helping others to design their own version of success on their terms. When I work with clients, I regularly hear similar stories; 'I know what I want, but I don't know how to begin' 'I feel overwhelmed by the process, I have too many options so I am not making the progress I want' or 'I need a check list and action plan to follow to keep me on track and accountable'.
As a coach, I work very practically, I use my coaching strategies to help the client to take baby steps to move forward. I always approach and create the action plan with the client and tailor the programme to their lifestyle.
My courses are created so you can put yourself back in the driver's seat. You can work at your own pace and have a step by step guide to follow. Not only will you gain clarity on how to move forward, you will uncover what or who is not conducive to your future goal so you can accelerate your progress.

- Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: A very long one that starts at the camp scene and ends with the death of the Invisible Swordsman. In the middle of this is another nested BLAM: the "Blue Shadows" musical number sang to Ned so he won't be afraid of the desert while their horses sing back up vocals and at the end of the song a turtle says "Goodnight, Ned!". For a while the movie seems to be confused as to whether it should have a realistic setting or something out of a Zucker Brothers movie. Some TV prints cut out the entirety of this sequence, going straight from the Amigos riding off from the village to them arriving at El Guapo's mission after the commercial break; these cuts skip a few good gags, but the plot isn't affected one tiny bit.
- Crowning Music of Awesome: Randy Newman's three songs are incredibly hilarious and somewhat touching, specifically "Blue Shadows".
- Ear Worm: The title theme.
- Genius Bonus: After Jefe assures El Guapo that they have enough piñatas, El Guapo asks if they have a "plethora" of piñatas. Jefe agrees, despite not knowing what a "plethora" is, which enrages El Guapo. Most people assume "plethora" simply means "a lot", and El Guapo is being a jerk to Jefe by needlessly using a fancy word and then putting Jefe down for not knowing what it means. "Plethora" really means "too many," so El Guapo is really asking, in response to Jefe saying they have a ton of piñatas, whether they have an unreasonable amount. When Jefe happily says that yes, they do, El Guapo realizes Jefe is just being a yes man.
- Then again, when Jefe accuses El Guapo of wanting to be upset at him just because he's fuming about turning 40, El Guapo seems to agree, so maybe he was just being a jerk to Jefe.
- Magnificent Bastard: El Guapo.
- Memetic Mutation: The "plethora" conversation.
- Vindicated by Cable: The film was only a modest money-earner and received mixed reviews on release. Today it's more fondly regarded by fans of 80's comedies, thanks to plenty of repeat showings on HBO, and eventually earned a spot on Bravo's "100 Funniest Movies" list.
- What an Idiot: Dusty.
Lucky: (after Dusty killed the Invisible Swordsman) You were supposed to fire up! We fired up! (sighs) It's like living with a 6-year-old...

I just wanted to share this thought I've had lately. And just on the nature of what I'm about to post, you don't have to give a shit, and can stop reading at any time, lol. But if anyone has had a similar feeling, feel free to respond. I just don't want things to get too out of hand because that would mostly defeat the purpose of this post, haha.
I don't usually post in this section. Truthfully, I get all the political discussion I can stand on Facebook. With friends and family members bickering back and forth, posting their propaganda pictures about every little issue that comes up, it just becomes exhausting even engaging in it anymore. Ultimately, you realize that no matter what side you fall on, you're talking to a wall, and you're never going to change anybody's mind.
So, recently, while talking to my dad on the phone, we started discussing the notion of ignorance being bliss. I mean, you hear all the time how it's better to be an informed citizen, and I don't dispute that a very strong case can be made for being aware of how the world operates and the effect things have on your everyday life. But at the same time, I feel like you have to question how much is actually in your control.
Maybe it's partially due to the general lack of anything getting done in America these days (or when something does get done, the other side works as feverishly as they can to undo it anyway), but regardless of whatever political party you support, do you not feel like you've been losing out? Maybe I've been listening to too much George Carlin lately, but no matter which side of the middle you fall on, do you really feel like your leaders are listening to you? And do you really think they would sit down with you for a heart to heart, and push anything that wasn't already on their agenda anyway?
So, with that being said, if your votes and your choices aren't really accomplishing much anyway, would it be better to just not know why certain bills get passed or why a law was repealed or why something was done that goes against your general interests? Basically, would you be happier if you didn't know you were getting fucked?
This was a sobering thought for me, because it essentially requires you to remove any political passion that you might have. But honestly...where does that passion get you? For one, it gets you fighting on internet message boards while members of Congress (regardless of party affiliation) are making $200,000 a year. For the most part, I don't really find my life any better or worse based on whether I agree or disagree with what they're selling. But what does make my life better or worse is the amount of bullshit I have to deal with on a daily basis.
So, for the past month or so, while people continue to rant on Facebook about Naval shootings, government shutdowns, and cars smashing through iron gates, I've just sat back, reminding myself that the grief isn't worth it. Sure, I'm still aware that these things are going on...but I'm tired of investing the energy by caring. Whether or not this means that I choose to not vote in the next election remains to be seen...but sometimes, Carlin really does make a lot of sense.

Pope meets with religious leaders, highlights his commitment to inter-religious dialogue
Bartholomew IEcumenical Orthodox Patriarch"Your choice of upholding humility, your Holiness, makes it quite evident that this way of thinking is leading your path. This act alone is already filling the hearts of the faithful ; with hope, and in general that of all people throughout the world.¨The chairman of Moscow´s Patriarchate, Hilarion, ; was also among the guests. Pope Francis highlighted that the Church is committed to promoting unity among believers, especially now that the Church is celebrating the Year of Faith and the 50th anniversary of the Second Vatican Council. POPE FRANCIS "I want to assure you that I will follow in the footsteps of my predecessors, in their openness and commitment to ecumenical dialogue. I also want to thank the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of Christian Unity."The Pope also greeted Jewish and Muslim representatives. He acknowledged their special relationship with the Church, but he also called on them to make a commitment for a peaceful co-existence. POPE FRANCIS "The Catholic Church is aware of the importance of promoting friendship and respect between men and women of various religious traditions. This is a point I want to repeat once again: The promotion of friendship and respect between men and women of different religious traditions."After his speech, the Pope greeted each representative, one by one. Perhaps the friendliest greeting was with a rabbi from Buenos Aires, which is the city where Bergoglio was archbishop. The Pope received several gifts that reflect all the cultural and religious diversity in the room. The gifts included these Eastern icons and this colorful African Cross. ;RCGCTV-GdP-BN-U:OF

i have posted about this a while a go about a girl who approached me in college and started talking to me while i was playing on my 3ds. From that point on i have noticed she has been eyeing me quite a bit and seems to check to see if im in my friend group. So the indicators are there that she likes me, i mean she approached me! which is a surprise and a change. Well i should of just dived in like any normal guy and started talking to her more, however i have slight social anxiety and used to suffer from deppression (however i hide it quite well in college and basically act as normal as possible :3 ) well anyway i want to approach and talk to her but she is always with her friends and the only time our crosses path is in the busy corridor before lessons, so her friends are always with her and i can't pluck up the courage to just do it >.< any advice ladies and gents?
Most Helpful Girl
well, if she's been eyeing you, and talking to you, she's obviously hinting that she wants you to make a move because most girls will wait for the guy to make the first move.
1. If she likes you and she sees you in the hallway or whatnot, even if she's with her friends, she will most likely notice you, so wave and smile! Girls LOVE that! If my crush waves at me in the hall or even makes eye contact, I could faint! And it will signal to her that it's ok to approach you and that you notice her.
2. If you have the balls to do this, go up to her and say hi to her while she's with her friends. Come up with something casual to say and walk away. Her friends quite probably know that she likes you and if you walk up and say anything to her, as soon as you walk away her friends will probably be all like "Ooooh! He talked to you!!" and she will be more likely to approach you in the future.
The fact that she approached you, probably means that she's not really afraid to approach guys (I'm like that too so I think I know how to deal with a girl like that). IMPORTANT: Just because we're not afraid to approach you, doesn't mean that we'll chase you. WE DO NOT LIKE TO PURSUE! If you don't talk to her she might think that you find her annoying or imposing and she won't approach you again. If you act disinterested, she'll back off.

text: In the early morning there is nothing like driving east on Sherman Way in the San Fernando Valley. Not too many drivers on the road the view of the Verdugo mountains are straight ahead. The Verdugos shine with a blue gray hue bringing to mind my youthful wild days. The street is lined with dark green pepper trees blocks of brilliant yellow mustard greens freely enhanced with miles of tall brown yellow wheat weeds What is still left of this wild valley. It is a cool windy day the will-o'-the-wisp goes round and round. Made up of different colored leaves memories that stir within me. Prehistoric blue gray mountain range wild memories inspire feelings I am getting younger not older. Coolness on clothes distance of windy gray sky I feel 13 again.

Please confirm that you want to add The Happenista Project to your Wishlist.
This 12 week course is for women who want to craft the life they've dreamed of, their way. Weekly video interviews with experts, worksheets, secret online group and monthly video call, challenge you to step out of your comfort zone and take action.
Developed by Award Winning Coach, Jenny Garrett through years of personally coaching hundreds of women, her extensive research with thousands of women and intuitive sense of what works.
The Happenista Project is your unique opportunity to receive an entire year's worth of know-how covering a solid plan of online and offline strategies, handed to you in easy-to-implement VIDEO lessons.
You'll learn the most up-to-date, proven strategies, tools, and tactics to help you achieve and surpass what you thought possible for your life. Unlocking your passions, dreams and purpose to make things happen for you.
The Happenista was created for busy women—designed to help you grow and develop personally and professionally in as little as 10 minutes a day.
The Happenista Project hones these Happenista Habits, proven habits that help women achieve their goals (from research of 2700 women in association with Nivea skincare brand )
Well done in making this investment in You! Here's how to make the most of the Happenista Project.
Goals vs Intentions
At the start of any process you are always encouraged to set goals for yourself. After all if you dont know where you are going, how can you get there? I want to encourage you to set 'intentions' rather than goals at the start of this journey. Watch the video and then work through the Happenista Worksheet 1 in the resources section.
Happenistas use technology to accelerate their career. Technology comes in many forms: from social media, to blogging to photography and so much more. Our experts will educate you about how they use technology, and more importantly challenge you to find the medium that will help you get your message out in the world.
Not sure how technology can help? Imagine you have been in your role for a number of years of feel boxed in, perhaps you are being overlooked when promotion time comes, or feel that the only way to get the recognition you to deserve is to move company. Blogging can really help to share your thoughts, knowledge and experience with a wider audience, if you become a recognised expert or go to person in your sector, your company will have to listen, alternatively you'll be headhunted by an organisation that recognises your worth!
Or maybe you run your own company and you're excellent at what you do, but not enough people know about it. Consistent, authentic social media is a great way to extend the reach and awareness of your brand. The media and your clients need to be able to find you and social media can help with that.

According to a recent study Professional Networking makes us feel 'dirty'
It seems that when we engage in relationships that are self-serving, they don't always align with us morally and we associate morality with cleanliness. So if we are engaging in activities that we see as immoral, they are dirty.
The key then is to work out how to network in a way that connects with our values and authenticity.

Found amongst the wares of an auctioneer that burps up a batch of British guns every so often. There were two drop-block sporting rifles and a rare Wilson two-band capping breechloader, all skyrocketing well beyond my reach in short order. Then there was this Tower 1856 Enfield. The date and the faint WD broad arrow on the stock made me sit up... I'd just watched Charlie bag a musket of same vintage marked to the HEIC. Could lightning strike twice? Couldn't discern a surfing yeti. Also, from what I could see the gun clearly was not in "parts as issued" form. It seemed proper in basic proportion, though (not of whole Khyber manufacture,) and the bore was reported to be very good... so I waded in where others were probably too wise to swim, and so here she is:
From what I can see without taking it apart (yes, Charlie ,):
-The barrel bands are wrong for a second model, and someone welded those blued ears on to meet the front spring.
-The rear sight is forward of where it should be, and seems to have suffered abuse and maybe repair... it is slewed ever so slightly left on its axis and the sight notch favors left as well.
-The sling swivel on the trigger guard is not correct for a short rifle and should not be there at all for a three-bander in any event.
-The barrel proofs have, I believe, been monkeyed with... a commercial tube, half scrubbed and with spurious military marks added?
-The rod is a repro, and a short one at that.
What appears right-
-The stock, though rough, is the real deal. The WD looks genuine, and I can see the faint remains of crowned inspection marks behind the trigger guard. There's the batch hash in the rod channel, which has the 2nd model swell. I can see no other marks on the outside... no setter-up and no lock fitter.
-I believe the lock is correct, though the cypher engraving and the inspector mark have me wondering. The action is positive.
-The bore is very bright, though the rifling is quite shallow.
I imagine the number on the barrel indicates the gun spent some time on the sub-continent. So perhaps, as with similar weapons, she is a put-together?

Rorke Data Ships 10,000th Galaxy Raid Storage SystemStorage Hungry Applications Embrace Purpose-Built, Scalable Storage Solutions (April 08, 2010)
EDEN PRAIRIE, MN -- (Marketwire) -- 04/08/10 -- Rorke Data Inc., a data storage-centric, end-to-end solutions provider that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bell Microproducts (NASDAQ: BELM), today announced that it has surpassed a major milestone: The company has shipped 10,000 of its Galaxy® RAID storage systems worldwide.
Rorke first introduced the Galaxy Series as a Fibre Channel RAID solution on April 19, 1999. The products were first deployed to meet the rigors of storage intensive applications for video editing and broadcast, but have since grown into an ideal solution for customers requiring value-based, performance-driven storage solutions that include superior service and support. Galaxy products have shipped to a wide variety of customers across a wide range of industries including healthcare, video and government.
"We have been tracking this goal since we shipped our 1,000th system just four years ago," noted Rorke Data's president, Joe Swanson. "This great accomplishment is a testament to all of the hard work and dedication to quality from everyone across the entire Rorke Data and Bell Micro organizations."
"Our success is tied to providing a quality-driven product that addresses the ongoing high growth storage needs of both Rorke Data and Bell Micro customers," continued Swanson. "Our OEM and VAR partners see the Galaxy RAID offering as an ideal way to address their customers' budget and performance demands -- in a manner that higher priced, competing storage solutions simply cannot deliver."
Rorke Data continues to build on the success of the Galaxy line by unveiling new products -- including the 2009 introduction of the Galaxy Aurora RAID storage line. According to Swanson, "Aurora is the fastest growing product in the Galaxy family, primarily due to its unique ability to deliver high-performance, low-cost storage in Fibre Chanel and Infiniband storage area networks for video, post-production and high bandwidth computing applications."
The combination of the global storage buying power of Bell Micro and the technical integration and support capabilities of Rorke Data give the Galaxy product line a distinct competitive advantage. Galaxy products include RAID, NAS and storage servers purpose built using Rorke's world class ISO 13485-2003 technical manufacturing and support center in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. According to Swanson, "Based on our past success and the future needs of our customers, we anticipate achieving the next milestone of 20,000 Galaxy units shipped in record time."
Galaxy storage solutions are available at www.rorke.com and through Bell Micro, please visit www.bellmicro.com or call 1-800-800-1513 for more information.

"Atos Origin wins Sapforum05 Award"
Milan, 2 August 2005
Atos Origin, a leading international information technology services provider, has won the Sapforum05 Award for the strategic vision and the speed/simplicity with which it implemented the MyPMI consumer beverage computer system, designed to meet the competitive development requirements of Sibeg, a company operating in the beverages production and distribution sector.
Sibeg's requirements, a company that bottles and distributes Coca-Cola Company products all over Sicily, included business performance monitoring, real time availability of data relating to profitability, marketing expenses control, and analysis and reporting activities.
The solution to these requirements was the preconfigured Atos Origin MyPMI consumer beverage, with which Atos Origin integrated its SAP NetWeaver platform, created by collaboration and order entry with the commercial division via the SAP Enterprise Portal.
The solution devised by Atos Origin enables representatives to manage all communications with the central system, enter orders, invoices and payments and check the progress of these orders. In addition, the project included an integrated materials traceability system using advanced wireless tools. The system was produced in one year, an extremely short period of time given the complexity of the project, which involved new computer systems for the whole company.
"We are pleased to receive this recognition which demonstrates our capacity to meet our clients' needs and guarantee the achievement of their business development and innovation objectives, in record completion time. A winning approach confirmed by the client's testimony during the event", declared Gianluigi Di Francesco, CEO of Atos Origin in Italy.
About Atos Origin
Atos Origin is an international information technology services company. Its business is turning client vision into results through the application of consulting, systems integration and managed operations. The company's annual revenues are more than EUR 5 billion and it employs over 46,000 people in 40 countries. Atos Origin is the Worldwide Information Technology Partner for the Olympic Games and has a client base of international blue-chip companies across all sectors . Atos Origin is quoted on the Paris Eurolist Market and trades as Atos Origin, AtosEuronext, Atos Worldline and Atos Consulting.

And to be specific, the speed of sound is 340 m/s...so if a sniper rifle is 1000 m/s (I don't think that's correct though), that's pretty exactly the same speed as Mikoto's railgun. Actually though, I don't think a normal sniper rifle should be that much faster than a handgun...the long nozzle is only to increase the accuracy, while a higher velocity would be achieved by having a higher force of propulsion, i.e. higher recoil. So if we assume a handgun shoots at 400 m/s, then for a bullet the same size to move at 1000 m/s a sniper rifle would have to have 2.5x the recoil--that seems like a bit too much in my opinion.
But yeah, I think some earlier analysis in some other threads already showed that the speed of Mikoto's railgun is actually not that much, and in fact if it was only the force from the coin, it could not have the destructive power that's shown in the series (for a mass the size of the coin, 3x the speed of sound is way too small). So I think we can assume that Mikoto's railgun is way more powerful than any old sniper bullet, and that that power in fact comes from the railgun being some kind of 'beam' with a lot of electrical energy as well.

but the sniper rifle in the series are military powered sniper rifle. And I think the coin itself isn't scary but the amount of electricity compressed on it when it's been fired. And its fitting to call it a laser beam not just a railgun.

The world's most powerful .50 caliber sniper rifles do fire at around mach 3. They also use ammunition that's designed for it though, heh.
No seriously. This is just one of Kamichi's physics failures. The series has several of them, so don't worry about it too much. An arcade token has extremely low mass, and even accelerated to mach 3 (and mind you it's losing mass as it melts) it really probably wouldn't do more damage than a low caliber handgun.
However, living up to the title of "electromagnetic cannon" Kamachi has Mikoto's standard railgun do damage that far exceeds even the strongest high power rifle and is easily in line with an impossibly short ranged cannon.
Of course, we know that Mikoto limits it all on purpose. Her choice of ammunition is designed to limit her destructive power and her range. She limits the speed too, and can exceed mach 3 without any problems, but the coin would essentially disintegrate immediately.
From the special novel, we know she can railgun pretty much anything, as she coated a non magnetic object in a shell/layer of micromagnetic particles and then fired it. We also get an idea of her real range, as fans in Japan have calculated that based on the speed of the target she struck, it should have been anywhere from 80 to 100 kilometers away from her at the time. This puts her in line with the most long range experimental artillery of modern times.
As for Saiai, earlier I thought for sure that she would end up fighting Mikoto. Her power is a good advantage against Mikoto. Pure nitrogen is actually a good insulator. Actually, even though it's only mostly nitrogen, air itself is a decent insulator. People forget that because lightning cuts through air so "easily", but that's a testament to the power of lightning more than anything.
Still, insulators can be overcome by strong enough current. At full strength, I don't doubt for a second that Mikoto could electrocute Saiai through the armor, but Mikoto isn't anywhere near her actual strength at this point.
As for the railgun, I'd imagine Saiai can withstand it without permanent injury. It would probably blow her off her feet though. I could imagine it knocking her out if she gets hit the wrong way with it.
Still, I had placed Mugino as last boss for the arc from the moment she appeared, and that fight is now underway. I can imagine the author might want to have Saiai fight Mikoto just so Mikoto will have fought against all of ITEM, but it certainly would seem odd to fight her last. Maybe that's just me.

right! that's one of the irritating part for me. The plot control one. Instead of the index physics law. I can accept the fact about not willing to give up thing and those mortal wounds that almost killed someone but still their standing. The one I can't accept are the ones with no further explenation like on accel's part where he can just redirect it.... PERIOD! NO FURTHER QUESTIONS ASK! that's all. The plot are on their side. And not just some terrible bad luck.

I usually don't like to think as if its plot and character which controls what happens, otherwise it gets really annoying if they pull crap out of there asses like this.
I prefer to think of it as a event which has already happened without us knowing and then telling it to us. Kinda like telling the heroic story of someone in WW2 which doesn't die, to a person who has no idea about WW2. We can't say he didn't die cause of plot, but rather were telling this story only cause he achieved something unbelievable before he died. But there is only so much crap one can accept before its ass pull and plot shield...kinda like Touma not before dead seriously.

Well, it's up to Author to decide, some manga have weak asses character suddenly harbor great power. Like what Samurai deeper Kyo do. Who know what will happen in Mikoto in the next chapter, may be she will receive some Brain boosted via magic then become as Great as Touma....(imagining Mikoto become evil mistress who surrounded the whole world with Thunder Storm like Jupiter Planet Atmosphere)

mikoto can't be boosted by magic because magic and esper abilities aren't compatible with each other. If you can use esper abilities then you can't be a magician but if you can't become an esper then you can become a magician.

the author can use any method he like to boost biri-biri power. Just like what Maaka from Soul Eater do (via Black Blood from Ragnarok) or Majunia from Dragon Ball (merge with Earth God) or may be like Ikaros from Sora no Otoshimono (awakened by Anger)
hmm...Mikoto school have swimming class too..I wonder what will happen with her classmate if some one peek at her in the pool
Mikoto: KYAAAAh! Pervert!!!
Mikoto Class mate:!!!!EVERYONE!!!!!!! GET OUT FROM THE POOL!!!

AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentYou've amply demonstrated your incapacity to have rational discussion at ANY time, given your abundant over-emotional, irrational outbursts -- as I said, go to hell, via the nearest highway, if that's your preference
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentDo us all a favour, go to Hell, now, you'll end up there eventually anyway this isn't a popularity contest, it's supposed to be a rational discussion of issues, but you and your cronies have destroyed that
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 Developmentsuffice to say, simply, that it's been a valiant attempt to "milk" all that one can out of a low level device, whose performance was always, on the better tech sites, was noted to be good, in terms of value for money, but not that good compared to many more expensive competitiors,, and we should be grateful, for next time, that we've had a look at something by all means, report me, I was not the one to start these insulting comments: be careful you'll get back from the moderators what you dish out: "go to your nearest motorway, and start playing with the traffic." I think you'll be required to give an apology first.
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 Developmentyours was not the only post I was responding to -- you people waste others time, and I was trying to save mine -- "nuff said" the rest of your post doesn't warrant response, as we're not talking about other ROMs, or devices, on this thread
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentI fully understand where and what my IMEI is -- but how about YOU do some reading, like several of the posts about officially unlocking the bootloader, that disagree with your early points?? Did YOU know your IMEI can be changed by install processes - rad these posts I referred to -- in fact, this is referred to on the "original" Huaweig300.com webpage, which came from xda-developers, I think - which is why they provide guidelines for backing up your IMEI signal strength is NOT normal -- I have OBJECTIVE evidence of difference in signal strength in now THREE different devices, desperate to resolve this problem with phone reception, two G300s (one "stock" as bought in store, with Huawei GB 2.3.7), one U8652 with CM7.2-benru89-v4) ALL with same network monitoring software installed, software respected by commercial writers on the 'net, in identical conditions, except for different ROMs -- can YOU say that? -- both devices with "modified" ROMs installed following full wipes; as I said SO... sorry, BUT -- You are WRONG!! This ROM has ongoing, serious, issues BUT I fully respect the fact that this is an Experimental ROM, providing, JB, where it might not otherwise be available, but burying your head in the sand serves no one I have no "personal" stake, and respect and thank Daz for his efforts, BUT .... I, personally, never mentioned, or referred to Viber, fyi I am NOT trolling the board -- others are trying to explain the problems they too are having and "stop playing with my phone" -- I thought that was the point of a discussion of Experimental ROMs on a phone??????????? are YOU even using a G300 -- you don't list it as your phone -- how about getting on the right list? and "weak" meaning not strong, is spelt w-e-a-k NOT week as in week in a year, which it might take you, hopefully, for you to do the required reading, during which time learning some basic social skills and respect for other people is also recommended it would serve ALL people were you to not post again, if you're only going to muddy the waters for those trying to resolve these issues
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentHave to disagree -- signal strength quality is also very deficient -- comparing phone using objective data on two different devices, one with ROM and one using different ROM -- for some reason the random reboot problem seems to have settled down all by itself! Are you saying signal strength should be weaker for some reason on JB compared to GB? BUT I do respect, and thank, Dazz for his marvellous efforts -- I hope we all can appreciate this is an Experimental ROM -- JB available to me the way Huawei never wanted to make available to us, on the G300, here in New Zealand
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentSorry, could I have this again? not sure what you're saying -- in New Zealand the G300 is ONLY available with Gingerbread, and so I had to use a custom ROM if I wanted ICS or JB on my phone. Through using the process listed on the Huaweig300.com site the baseband changed from 109808 to 2030. Sure, things work "better" on ICS (better signal -- I use two phones -- the U8652 usually shows 3-4 bars, the G300 rarely has 3, and never 4 -- see my previous posts for more empirical info) -- and many previous posts discouraged use of 109808 baseband, preferring 2030, so I don't think it's a baseband issue OR are you saying that unlocking the bootloader, officially, is the issue -- about which there are some related post streams, but little time has been spent on THIS specific stream / topic area. I still haven't emailed Huawei for my "official" unlock code -- in New Zealand, they probably wouldn't know what I was asking for!! (and I'm not 100% sure what my IMEI is / was originally, which I understand is required to be passed on to Huawei to obtain this unlock code -- though I did backup the IMEI using the huaweig300 procedure, but not sure how to use it -- if someone else wants to tell me how to do this to get the IMEI??? I have A number on my phone (using About Phone/Status/IMEI) but it's all numbers, and I understand the "correct" IMEI is a combination of letters and numbers?? I'd "kill" to get better signal quallity on my phone -- the cell tower's only a couple of hundred metres away and signal strength typical -100dBm or "less")
AussieExpat replied to kyan31's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentNo guys, it wasn't me -- CM10.1 R4 is still having its probs, so thought I'd check this out again -- looks like I was hardly alone in liking but not liking this ROM, and if CM10.1 is anything to go by R3 of Electra has all the accumulated rubbish of my local refuse station -- why don't you people grow up -- "unconditional love" is that what you're expecting?? That's what a mother has for her baby, and vice versa -- you are NOT contributing to the development of anything by not sycophantic idolation of kyan or his ROM -- it's not objective feedback, and it's only through objective data gathering and working on the dafa that anything will improve so, to hell with the data, "if you not wi' us, you're agin us" !!!! pshaw, pshaw, pshaw
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentDo you realise you're asking this question of a ROM that is classified as "Experimental"? Do you realise that on this list you're asking questions of people who are using their own phones to Experiment with the properties of new ROM builds? Why not do as others do -- EXPERIMENT -- you will have the answer as to whether or not the ROM will run on YOUR phone -- little if any "harm" will occur if you do this -- at worst you may have to re-install ROM or applications -- so do a backup before you do and you should be 100% OK I don't play games of the sort you do (like TR2) on the phone -- use it for too many other things, but do know I was able to run at least the early "tutorial" stage on R3, so expect no problems with R4 -- but that's the point of experimentation. Iron Man 3 can run on the phone, and it's free and getting rave reviews.
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 Developmentas common as this problem seems with OTA updates, I don't believe it''s due to OTA, but I downloaded the zip file and flashed it "manually", not OTA, and yet I too have this problem
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentThat's right, Dazz, you owe us nothing, we're grateful for R3, even if R4 doesn't "cut the mustard", as some would say. No one can say they didn't know it was an unofficial, and an Experimental, ROM they were trying, just to see. We can always go back to 4.0.3 if we insist on using our phones as phones.
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 Developmentyes, as you say, trying to search MoDaCo for these terms is a waste of time -- Google is much better pardon my last post -- sent in error -- as you can tell from the poor grammatical construction -- now to contribute to the data pool: BOTH call quality is poor, and random reboots are a problem -- the first reflected in the signal strength, now that I've checked it: Present rom, baseband R4, 2030 Dload base b952 Network provider Telecom New Zealand 3G HSDPA Sim card type "new" SIM card -- 2 months old (can't read the fine print) Officialy unlocked bootloader Bootloader NOT officially unlocked Signal Strength -98 -- -105 dBm (and that's using Network Signal Refresher!!) RIL "nothing special" -- no modification flashed
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentPardon my ignorance, although I admire logical and practical thinking, and try to practice the same, but what do some of these terms mean, so that as many as us can contribute these details as possible: What's a Dload base? Apart from SIM,and Micro-SIM cards, what types of SIM cards are there? (although I realise that some older cards have four pins, and newer ones have three pins) ? RIL -- I'm also not sure if the RIL has been incorporated into a separate zip, or if it's a standard part of the different ROMs I don't use my phone for calls that much, but random reboots seem the bigger problem for me (R4, baseband 2030, New Zealand carrier Telecom 3G, bootloader NOT officially unlocked before upgrading from GB -- what signal strength is normal on this phone -- mine 101 dBm
AussieExpat replied to Dazzozo's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentWeren't there some individual case reports that officially unlocking the bootloader, and proceeding from there, resolved call problems -- but did this reach the stage of "empirical research", controlling for individual variables one by one and tabulating the characteristics (call quality, reboots) against specific conditions (network, say) ??
AussieExpat replied to kyan31's topic in Huawei Ascend G300 DevelopmentI did NOT tell you to do anything. In fact, for those who have not read my previous posts, let me reassure that I have, on more than one occasion, given my thanks and commendation to Kyan for producing these ROMs, but they do not do EVERY thing, and numerous people have already said (a) reliability and quality of calls using these ROMs is less than they hope(d) for / require (B) they are reverting to earlier ROMs (incidentally, developed by other people) which are better in this regard for this purpose, the ROM simply, truly, is NOT good enough, but I wasn't TELLING you to make it better in this regard -- I had hoped you would, if your motivation was in providing a service, but if it's otherwise, that's for you to work out between yourself and your cronies Certainly, the ROMs produced by kyan are good, in some respects, for some functions, but they do not address the issues raised by these other people who have made submissions to this topic, and who have gone back to using other ROMs WHAT I WAS DOING: I was involved in the process of helping people make their own decisions, based on the available evidence -- much as any responsible scientist would. Gather the "evidence" -- other users' reports of difficulties Interpret the results and outline competing hypotheses accounting for them -- such as the need to "officially" unlock the bootloader, for which evidence has been offered that it substantially improves the quality and reliability of calls for people wishing to examine that evidence themselves, see here: kyan, you will be please not to hear from me again -- like other people, I too shall be reverting to the use of other ROMs, and getting better, more reliable, calls as a result Goodbye, and good riddance, to you Personally, I hope you find an insightful and compassionate therapist to help you overcome your Narcissistic Personality Disorder, something that can muck up many areas of your life, for many years, until you can find the courage to confront the difficulties your personality presents you, and others..

Whether you're heading to a nearby city or traveling across the world, vacations hold potential for great fun and for great stress. Thankfully, this article has many suggestions to help you make your vacation a glorious one.
Before you go on a trip, ask around for tips from friends and family. See who has been there before and/or what they'd recommend you either visit or avoid. Are there particular restaurants, sights, or shows you should see? You can also check out sites on the internet that provide advice from fellow travelers.
If you are staying in a country with a high crime rate, treat even your hotel room as suspect. Place a piece of furniture in front of the door to prevent midnight break-ins. Also check that windows lock securely. You never know which hotel owners might get a kickback from local crime gangs.
If you are traveling to the beach or staying at a hotel with a pool, pack your swimsuit in your beach bag. It can sometimes be difficult to sort through everything you have packed. To save time, pack your swimsuit, sunscreen, and anything else you might need for the beach or pool in a beach bag.
When traveling by airplane, look for shops in the airport that have swap shelves. These shelves are for travelers to brings books and exchange them for other books. So if your flight is delayed and you finished your book already, head over to a swap shelf and exchange it for one you've been wanting to read!
If you are traveling to a hot country, remember to pack insect repellent. Insect bites can be not only annoying. They can be also painful, and many countries won't stock the industrial-strength repellent available back home. While abroad, apply a liberal amount of insect repellent as night approaches to ensure you get an undisturbed sleep.
Check out international fast food chains when you travel abroad! At first this sounds like a silly suggestion that will make you miss out on authentic local cuisine. However, the restaurants of international chains are often localized to cater to the palate of the natives. You may be surprised and interested to see the novelties on the menu at a restaurant you thought was familiar!
If you're going on a cruise, pack a tackle box and keep your valuables in it. Cruises often have a lot of thieves aboard them and you don't want to risk losing something important to you. Thieves will often ignore something like a tackle box, leaving your valuables safe.
If you are leaving children with friends or relatives while you are away on a trip, make sure to leave important papers like health insurance cards and a notarized letter, stating that their caregiver has your authority to make medical decisions. They made need this information if there is a medical emergency.
From a trip of a few miles to a voyage around the world, travel offers many different possibilities. By following the tips presented here you can enjoy a remarkable, memorable and safe trip.

U.S. Gasoline Supplies Set Records in 2 Coasts: ChartBy
While the East Coast has been pining for supplies, the Gulf Coast is drowning in gasoline. The sudden shutdown of Colonial Pipeline Co.'s 1.3 million barrel-a-day gasoline pipeline pushed supplies down in the East Coast region by more than 13 percent in the seven days through Sept. 16. Stockpiles in the Gulf Coast region soared by a record 4.765 million barrels, according to U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Since I'm not intent on typing out paragraphs here on my back-story, I'm just going to state that I know this girl well, but not "close".
Towards the last week of school, I was planning on telling her how much I like her; how I've held such feelings for the entire year. I had bought her two boxes of chocolates, strung together with blue yarn, and I wrote her a letter which I stuck in between the chocolates. My plan was to surprise her with the chocolates on our last walk home from school, and confide in her how I really felt. Before I left, I asked her if she was walking, and my plan collapsed completely when she told me she was getting a ride from her friend. I walked home feeling crushed; I had no way of getting in touch with her. I pulled some strings, and was able to get her number. (We had exchanged numbers somewhat months before, but in the past month she had gotten a new phone, new number). I texted her with the number my friend had found for me. I explained to her how I had gotten a hold of it (she had commented it carelessly on her instagram, to my good luck) , to which she was a little creeped out but told me it was alright. I told her that something had been bothering me that happened earlier on that year, and she asked me what.
I then sent her a picture of the chocolates, and told her that I like her. I got no response for an hour, and I sent her another text telling her a deeper extent of how I felt for her. How I feel a jolt whenever I see her, how I love hugging her, how her hair mesmerizes me. Half an hour later, she texted me saying "omg I feel really bad..." and since that night, I have not attempted texting her, nor have I gotten anything from her.
I don't know what to do now. I really wish I had said this in person so I could see her real reaction. I don't know if she's actually thinking about what I told her, if she's decided to just forget about me, whether she even plans on texting me, if I'm even worth the effort in her mind. I feel paranoid right now, and I would appreciate some opinions on this. I'm really unsure of what to do right now.
I texted her that I like her; I'm unsure of what to do now...
Since I'm not intent on typing out paragraphs here on my back-story, I'm just going to state that I know this girl well, but not "close".
Have an opinion?
What Girls Said 1
Sweety I'm really sorry to say this but unfortunately the feeling isn't mutual. If she was into you then she wouldn't have said that and she would have talked to you way more. I certainly would not treat a guy like that if I knew he liked me and if I felt the same. I would have talked to him often and told him that I feel the same too and would have likely even made plans to hang out. I can promise you her reaction in real life wouldn't have been much better... it's not the fact that you did it over text messaging. It's just that right now her feelings towards you are lacking. If I were you I'd distance myself from her, distract myself from her and treat this as one would treat any break up or rejection. Go through the stages of grief, but then pick yourself up and move on with your life. I know this is so cliche but there really is someone out there for you and now it's one girl down, which means one girl closer to the girl you're destined to be with <300|00|0
This is a girl that would say hi to me randomly. A girl that toyed with me early on in the year. Once she came up to me, poked me in the stomach, smiled and hugged me, out of nowhere. She'd talk to me, question me randomly. There was definitely something earlier this year; the feeling had to be mutual at one point. I feel like I waited too long..
If this girl was so into you at the beginning then her sudden change in feelings for you indicates she wasn't feeling as intensely as you did at the beginning. A girl doesn't just lose her feelings like that. Usually when girls fall hard for a guy they crush on the guy for years! I have a bad feeling that you confused her being friendly and playful with flirting. This could also be why she said she feels bad... she realizes she may have created the wrong impression and misled you.
What Guys Said 1
Honestly man, she probably didn't feel the same way about you. If you weren't that close to her to begin with, I think your grand entrance may have just surprised her big time. I think she's trying to figure out how to put you down gently, at least that's what I get from her response, "omg I feel really bad..." She's hinting at the idea that she was unaware of your feelings, but at the same time she doesn't know how to reject you. This is why you haven't gotten a response from her yet. If she was into you, then she would have been more open and quicker to respond I think.
Just wait. You already spilled your heart out to her, so don't make things anymore awkward.00|00|0

Knowledge Management Enabler Factors and Firm Performance: An Empirical Research of the Greek Medium and Large Firms
Knowledge has become one of the most important driving forces for business success. Knowledge management helps organizations to find, select, organise, distribute, and transfer vital information. Through a successful knowledge management (KM) organizations improve their effectiveness and gain competitive advantage. The development of KM has led to the need of identifying its critical success factors. This study identifies and discusses the critical success factors or enablers that determine the KM effectiveness within organizations, which in turn influence the total performance of the firm. Based on existing frameworks and models, this study outlines the five most important factors that are believed to be critical for an effective KM implementation. This paper also investigates the effect of knowledge management effectiveness on firm performance. The proposed research model is tested via an online survey sent to 280 medium and large sized enterprises, randomly selected, all over Greece; from those only 109 answered the questionnaire correctly. The results of the study will help organizations to understand the impact that different enablers have on the KM successful implementation and how the effectiveness of KM affect firm performance.
