Some emotional rubbish: I am mad at my boyfriend.
We wanted to leave for my parent's house yesterday as they are on vacations. The house is awesome, with a big garden and on the countryside. Really romantic. I never really spent time with one of my boyfriends there: Taking a walk, swimming in the pool, cooking in the big kitchen.
Ok he has a job interview now and he had to cancell… I CAN understand this. We just couldn't sleep at my parent's house. But he let me down for yesterday, too. He was "too tired" to meet me. I mean… WTF???? I was bored all day and felt lost. He cleaned his room… WTF! Too tired?
Now friends want to got to the movies today and he is gonna come and I don't even want to see him! He says that I am "always say that everything is bad"
I think I have all rights to complain, these are my feelings and when I feel let down and hurt than I think that these feelings deserve some respect. I respect his feelings!

About AEOL 10150
AEOL 10150 is a broad-spectrum catalytic antioxidant specifically designed to neutralize reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. The neutralization of these species reduces oxidative stress, inflammation, and subsequent tissue damage-signaling cascades resulting from radiation exposure. AEOL 10150 may have a profound beneficial impact on people who have been exposed, or are about to be exposed, to high-doses of radiation in the treatment of oncology.
AEOL 10150 has performed well in preclinical and non-clinical studies, demonstrating statistically significant survival efficacy in an acute radiation-induced lung injury model, and was well-tolerated in two human clinical trials. The Company believes it could have a profound beneficial impact on people who have been exposed, or are about to be exposed, to high-doses of radiation, whether from cancer therapy or a nuclear event.
About Aeolus Pharmaceuticals
Aeolus Pharmaceuticals is developing a platform of a new class of broad-spectrum, catalytic-antioxidant compounds that protect healthy tissue from the damaging effects of radiation. Its first compound, AEOL 10150, is being developed for oncology indications, where it is used in combination with radiation therapy. It is also being developed, with funding by the US Department of Health and Human Services, as a medical countermeasure against chemical and radiological weapons, where its initial target indications are as a protective agent against the effects of acute radiation syndrome and delayed effects of acute radiation exposure. Aeolus' strategy is to leverage the substantial investment in toxicology, manufacturing, and preclinical and clinical studies made by US Government agencies in AEOL 10150, including the contract with BARDA valued, with options, at up to $118.4 million, to efficiently develop the compound for use in oncology. For more information, please visit Aeolus's corporate website at www.aeoluspharma.com.

very letter or number you type online takes up approximately one byte of storage in the cloud. And all your tweets, emails, and other assorted pieces of data end up being stored in vast centers requiring unfathomable amounts of energy. The New York Times investigated the huge amounts of power that go into the sprawling server farms that backup your emails, Dropbox, Pinterest, and everything Google, all of which require equally massive and expensive cooling systems to keep them humming along. Here, a brief look at the eye-popping numbers:
Bytes used to store a single letter or number
Gigabytes required to store for one billion bytes of information
Gigabytes used by a "data-intensive customer" who stored a lot of data in server farms 10 years ago
1 million
Gigabytes processed and housed in data centers during the creation of a single 3D-animated movie today
Gigabytes of data produced each day by the New York Stock Exchange
30 billion
Watts of electricity used by digital warehouses worldwide, roughly equivalent to the output of 30 nuclear power plants
76 billion
Kilowatt-hours used by data centers nationwide in 2010, or roughly 2 percent of all electricity used in the United States
300 million
Average watts of power consumed by Google's data centers, according to a recent disclosure that didn't specify a timeframe
60 million
Average watts of power consumed by Facebook's data centers, also according to the recent disclosure
Percentage of total electricity used that is wasted by these data centers, says The New York Times, which, "by design, consume vast amounts of energy in an incongruously wasteful manner" because they run at maximum capacity "around the clock, whatever the demand." In many instances, these data centers pull in more electricity than a "medium-sized town," says Eric Limer at Gizmodo.
6 to 12
Percentage of electricity powering servers that perform actual tasks, according to consulting firm McKinsey & Company. "The rest were essentially used to keep servers idling and ready in case of a surf in activity that could slow or crash their operations," says the Times.
Federal data centers owned by the government in 1998

Banff Hiking Sunshine Meadows | Bourgeau Lake | Lake Louise Shoreline | Lake Agnes Lake Agnes Trail High tea amid high peaks Length:
3.5 km (2.2 mi) one way Lake Agnes is hidden in a hanging valley high above Lake Louise. In addition to its own charms, which include a teahouse, the two Beehives provide breathtaking views of Lake Louise and a broad stretch of the Bow Valley. As you walk along the shoreline of Lake Louise, the trail to Lake Agnes branches right just beyond the hotel, then climbs steadily through dense subalpine forest. After 1.7 kilometres (1.1 miles), the first switchback marks a break in the trees where you have a clear view down to the pale turquoise water of Lake Louise. Another one kilometre (0.6 miles) of forest-enclosed climbing brings you to Mirror Lake, a tiny lake with dark, layered cliffs of the Big Beehive looming above. The two trails leading off in opposite directions from Mirror Lake both converge at Lake Agnes; the left option is slightly shorter and steeper than the traditional route to the right. Regardless of which route you choose, the final climb to Lake Agnes is completed on one of two steep, wooden staircases, which surmount a cliff band beside a waterfall created by the lake's outlet stream. Arriving at the narrow opening where Lake Agnes tumbles from its basin, the lake appears in its entirety, stretching westward to a jagged mountain backdrop. The original Lake Agnes Teahouse was constructed in the early 1900s. The present-day version was built in 1981. It serves refreshments and light snacks from mid-June to early October and is one of the big attractions for many who do this hike. While its covered balcony is a relaxing place to sit and admire the view, it is usually very busy. The area surrounding Lake Agnes abounds with wildlife of the upper subalpine forest, especially those species who like to be where people are eating. Least chipmunks, golden-mantled ground squirrels, Clark's nutcrackers, and grey jays congregate around the teahouse looking for an easy meal. Hoary marmots and pikas, who whistle and cheep from the rocky slopes above the lakeshore, are somewhat less corrupted by humanity. Options: The most popular short hike beyond Lake Agnes is to Little Beehive, which provides an excellent panorama of the Bow River stretching from the mountains near its headwaters to surrounding peaks around the town of Banff to the south. Between Lake Agnes and Little Beehive are a number of rocky viewpoints overlooking Lake Louise, the hanging valley containing Lake Agnes, and Mount Aberdeen and the glacier-crowned peaks of Mounts Lefroy and Victoria. This 0.9-kilometre (0.6-mile) trail branches uphill from the shore of Lake Agnes just beyond the teahouse. From the teahouse, it takes around 15 minutes to reach the western end of Lake Agnes, where a rough trail switchbacks up a ridge. Traverse eastward (take the left fork) along the ridge's rocky spine to a gazebo-style shelter at the top of Big Beehive. Though somewhat obscured by trees, there are views over the Bow Valley and down to Lake Louise, over 500 vertical metres (1,640 feet) below. Total distance between the teahouse and Big Beehive is 1.6 kilometres (one mile); allow 40 minutes one way. (Do not attempt to shortcut down from the gazebo viewpoint in any direction; there are dangerous cliffs on all sides. Return back along the ridge the way you came.) Hikers looking for a full day's outing can include the Plain of the Six Glaciers in their itinerary after visiting Lake Agnes by crossing the Big Beehive's summit ridge and descending steeply for one kilometre (0.6 miles) to a trail running up-valley from Mirror Lake. Turn right and follow this trail as it descends across the lower slopes of Devil's Thumb to an intersection with the Plain of the Six Glaciers trail. Continue up-valley toward the imposing, glacier-topped summits of Mounts Lefroy and Victoria for another 1.4 kilometres (0.9 miles) to the Plain of the Six Glaciers Teahouse. Total distance for this combination of trails, without detours to the either of the Beehives, is 13.6 kilometres (8.5 miles) and you will have gained and lost almost 800 metres (2,620 feet); allow at five or six hours.

Molecular Brightness Determined from a Generalized Form of Mandel's Q-Parameter Biophysical Journal, Volume 89, Issue 5, 1 November 2005, Pages 3531-3547 Alvaro Sanchez-Andres, Yan Chen and Joachim D. Müller Abstract Mandel's Q-parameter, which is determined from the first two photon count moments, provides an alternative to PCH analysis for determining the brightness of fluorophores. Here, the definition of the Q-parameter is generalized to include correlations between photon counts that are separated by a time τ. We develop and experimentally verify a theory that takes the effects of dead time, afterpulsing, and the finite sampling time on the generalized parameter Q(τ) into account. Q(0), which corresponds to the original Q-parameter, is severely affected by dead time and afterpulsing. Q(τ) for τ>0, on the other hand, is quite robust with respect to nonideal detector effects. Thus, analysis of Q(τ) provides a robust method for determining the brightness of fluorophores. We extend the theory to a mixture of species, which is characterized by an apparent brightness. The brightness of EGFP in CV-1 cells is measured as a function of protein concentration to demonstrate the feasibility of Q(τ) analysis in cells. In addition, we monitor protein association of the ligand-binding domain of retinoid X receptor in the presence and absence of 9-cis-retinoic acid by Q(τ) analysis.

Analytical Distribution and Tunability of Noise in a Model of Promoter Progress Biophysical Journal, Volume 102, Issue 6, 21 March 2012, Pages 1247-1257 Jiajun Zhang, Luonan Chen and Tianshou Zhou Abstract Chromatin template (CT), which accumulates over time until the promoter becomes active, determines upstream dynamics of transcription, but how upstream sequential steps impact downstream dynamics qualitatively and quantitatively is unclear. Here, we analyze a stochastic gene model with a simple yet typical CT that contains one active state and several inactive states of the promoter. We derive the analytical expressions for the noise in mRNA probability distributions governed by master equations. The derived results extend previous work by including the effects of promoter progress on variability and bimodality. Specifically, given a CT for transcription, we analytically demonstrate that inactive phases of the promoter can modulate the noise intensity to the minimum independently of the mean expression of mRNA. If one new inactive state is added to the CT, then the resulting noise will be reduced, implying that the multi-off mechanism plays a role of attenuating the noise. In contrast to the simple on-off mechanism, the multi-off mechanism can also narrow bimodal regions in a certain parameter plane and obscure two peaks, explaining why bimodal distributions are rarely observed in experiments. Our results provide insight into the role of promoter progress in determining the level of cell-to-cell variability in gene expression. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (560 kb) |
STICCS Reveals Matrix-Dependent Adhesion Slipping and Gripping in Migrating Cells Biophysical Journal, Volume 103, Issue 8, 17 October 2012, Pages 1672-1682 Tim Toplak, Elvis Pandzic, Lingfeng Chen, Miguel Vicente-Manzanares, Alan Rick Horwitz and Paul W. Wiseman Abstract Two-color spatio-temporal image cross-correlation spectroscopy (STICCS) is a new, to our knowledge, image analysis method that calculates space-time autocorrelation and cross-correlation functions from fluorescence intensity fluctuations. STICCS generates cellular flow and diffusion maps that reveal interactions and cotransport of two distinct molecular species labeled with different fluorophores. Here we use computer simulations to map the capabilities and limitations of STICCS for measurements in complex heterogeneous environments containing micro- and macrostructures. We then use STICCS to analyze the co-flux of adhesion components in migrating cells imaged using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. The data reveal a robust, time-dependent co-fluxing of certain integrins and paxillin in adhesions in protrusions when they pause, and in adhesions that are sliding and disassembling, demonstrating that the molecules in these adhesions move as a complex. In these regions, both α6β1- or αLβ2-integrins, expressed in CHO.B2 cells, co-flux with paxillin; an analogous cotransport was seen for α6β1-integrin and α-actinin in U2OS. This contrasts with the behavior of the α5β1-integrin and paxillin, which do not co-flux. Our results clearly show that integrins can move in complexes with adhesion proteins in protrusions that are retracting. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (6524 kb) |

Many biological and chemical processes proceed through one or more intermediate steps. Statistical analysis of dwell-time distributions from single molecule trajectories enables the study of intermediate steps that are not directly observable. Here, we discuss the application of the randomness parameter and model fitting in determining the number of steps in a stochastic process. Through simulated examples, we show some of the limitations of these techniques. We discuss how shot noise and heterogeneity among the transition rates of individual steps affect how accurately the number of steps can be determined. Finally, we explore dynamic disorder in multistep reactions and show that the phenomenon can obscure the presence of rate-limiting intermediate steps.

Soy has potential negative vascular effects in men:
J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2001 Jul;86(7):3053-60.
Dietary soy has both beneficial and potentially adverse cardiovascular effects: a placebo-controlled study in men and postmenopausal women.
Teede HJ, Dalais FS, Kotsopoulos D, Liang YL, Davis S, McGrath BP.
To address the cardiovascular effects of dietary soy containing phytoestrogens, we measured blood pressure (BP), lipids, vascular function (systemic arterial compliance and pulse wave velocity), and endothelial function (flow-mediated vasodilation) in a randomized, double-blind trial. Two hundred thirteen healthy subjects (108 men and 105 postmenopausal women), 50-75 yr old, received either soy protein isolate (40 g soy protein, 118 mg isoflavones) or casein placebo for 3 months. There were 34 withdrawals (16%), with 179 subjects (96 men and 83 women) completing the protocol. After intervention in the soy group, compared with casein placebo, urinary phytoestrogens increased, accompanied by a significant fall in BP reflected by the BP model (P < 0.01) encompassing mean change (+/-SEM) in systolic (-7.5 +/- 1.2 vs. -3.6 +/- 1.1 mm Hg, P < 0.05), diastolic (-4.3 +/- 0.8 vs. -1.9 +/- 0.7 mm Hg, P < 0.05), and mean BP (-5.5 +/- 1 vs. -0.9 +/- 1 mm Hg, P < 0.008). In the lipid model, soy induced greater changes, compared with placebo (P < 0.001). On individual analysis, significant contributors included a reduction in the low- to high-density lipoprotein ratio (-0.33 +/- 0.1 vs. 0.04 +/- 0.1 mmol/L, P < 0.05) and triglycerides (-0.2 +/- 0.05 vs. -0.01 +/- 0.05 mol/L, P < 0.05) and an increase in Lp(a) lipoprotein (+/- 95% confidence interval) [42 (range, 17-67) vs. 4 (range, -22-31) mg/L, P < 0.05], whereas total, low-density lipoprotein, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol improved in both groups; but no treatment effect was demonstrated. The arterial functional model demonstrated no difference between groups; although again, overall function improved in both groups. On individual analysis, peripheral PWV (reflecting peripheral vascular resistance) improved with soy (P < 0.01), whereas flow-mediated vasodilation (reflecting endothelial function) declined (in males only), compared with casein placebo (P < 0.02). No effect of treatment on the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis was noted in males or females. In normotensive men and postmenopausal women, soy improved BP and lipids but, overall, did not improve vascular function. Potential adverse effects were noted, with a decline in endothelial function (in males only) and an increase in Lp(a). Further research in hypertensive and hyperlipidemic populations is needed.

Milk beats out soy for lean mass gains in young men:
J Am Coll Nutr. 2005 Apr;24(2):134S-139S.
Dietary protein to support anabolism with resistance exercise in young men.
Phillips SM, Hartman JW, Wilkinson SB.
Resistance exercise is fundamentally anabolic and as such stimulates the process of skeletal muscle protein synthesis (MPS) in an absolute sense and relative to skeletal muscle protein breakdown (MPB). However, the net effect of resistance exercise is to shift net protein balance (NPB = MPS - MPB) to a more positive value; however, in the absence of feeding NPB remains negative. Feeding stimulates MPS to an extent where NPB becomes positive, for a transient time. When combined, resistance exercise and feeding synergistically interact to result in NPB being greater than with feeding alone. This feeding- and exercise-induced stimulation of NPB is what, albeit slowly, results in muscle hypertrophy. With this rudimentary knowledge we are now at the point where we can manipulate variables within the system to see what impact these interventions have on the processes of MPS, MPB, and NPB and ultimately and perhaps most importantly, muscle hypertrophy and strength. We used established models of skeletal muscle amino acid turnover to examine how protein source (milk versus soy) acutely affects the processes of MPS and MPB after resistance exercise. Our findings revealed that even when balanced quantities of total protein and energy are consumed that milk proteins are more effective in stimulating amino acid uptake and net protein deposition in skeletal muscle after resistance exercise than are hydrolyzed soy proteins. Importantly, the finding of increased amino acid uptake would be independent of the differences in amino acid composition of the two proteins. We propose that the improved net protein deposition with milk protein consumption is also not due to differences in amino acid composition, but is due to a different pattern of amino acid delivery associated with milk versus hydrolyzed soy proteins. If our acute findings are accurate then we hypothesized that chronically the greater net protein deposition associated with milk protein consumption post-resistance exercise would eventually lead to greater net protein accretion (i.e., muscle fiber hypertrophy), over a longer time period. In young men completing 12 weeks of resistance training (5d/wk) we observed a tendency (P = 0.11) for greater gains in whole body lean mass and whole as greater muscle fiber hypertrophy with consumption of milk. While strength gains were not different between the soy and milk-supplemented groups we would argue that the true significance of a greater increase in lean mass that we observed with milk consumption may be more important in groups of persons with lower initial lean mass and strength such as the elderly.

Soy (compared to milk protein) decreases grip strength in postmenopausal women:
Maturitas. 2005 Oct 16;52(2):102-10. Links
Soy isoflavones, body composition, and physical performance.Kok L, Kreijkamp-Kaspers S, Grobbee DE, Lampe JW, van der Schouw YT.

OBJECTIVES: Physiologic changes, occurring during the process of aging, can have serious health consequences, such as increased risk of chronic disease and disability. Decline in estradiol levels after menopause is hypothesized to contribute to this risk. Thus, hormone therapy (HT) might prevent or delay those changes. However, HT has serious side effects and alternative approaches are needed. METHODS: We performed a 12-month double-blind randomized trial comparing soy protein containing 99mg isoflavones (aglycone weights) with milk protein (placebo) daily in 202 postmenopausal women aged 60-75 years. Endpoints were body composition, and physical performance. Randomization resulted in reasonable well-balanced groups, 153 (76%) women completed the trial. Compliance was good (plasma genistein levels 55 +/- 101 and 1259 +/- 1610 nmol/L for placebo and soy group, respectively). The changes in the endpoints during the intervention period among the two intervention groups were analyzed. RESULTS: Body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio did not change during intervention. Handgrip strength at the final visit was slightly worse in the soy group compared to the placebo group (-0.45 kg (95% C.I.: -2.5, 1.6 kg; p = 0.7), but this difference was not statistically significant. Self-reported functional status, mobility and physical performance, all slightly improved during intervention but there were no differences between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present trial do not support the view that soy isoflavones have favorable effects on body composition and physical performance in postmenopausal women.

London Punk- Cultural Icons: 1970s
Following the "Swinging London" era of the 1960s, a new group of cultural icons arose. The 1970s saw the emergence of the punk rock movement, built upon the wave of psychedelic and folk rock music introduced in the '60s. In the post-hippie era of the early '70s, rock 'n' roll had a new glam image, pioneered by outrageously dressed rockers like David Bowie and Marc Bolan. Soon other acts followed, most notably young performers like Siouxsie Sioux and groups like T.Rex and The Clash. The music of the '70s inspired fashion as well, in particular designer Vivienne Westwood, whose punk designs for the Sex Pistols helped define the decade's London style. Biography.com looks at the various icons who defined London in the '70s.

Since the federal government can now force you to purchase a product (health insurance) what is to stop them from forcing you to purchase a certain type of car? How about the size of your house, it would be much more energy efficient to live in a shoe box you know? I would like to point out that at some point the Republicans will be back in control and have the same ability to play with your life that democrats now have. How will you feel about that?
I normally don't respond directly to posts, but in this case I just have to. Are you really that afraid of our government? If you are, just who do you think would enforce all that you are worried about? Finally, the Republicans seem to be playing with all our lives right now, and I know exactly how I feel about it. (Basically, Republican's policies enrich my bank account but sadden my soul.)

Furby Interactive
Play with a virtual furby. Make him talk & move, dress him up, and play some music too. Just something for fun.
This was made by Violet-AIM (not XwaynecoltX). He broke into my account and tried to claim collab credit for some of my movies.
Absent from flash after this was made. Any posts or reviews made by me from May 2005-Jan 2011 was not by me.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars November 14, 2003
yada yada yada.
ummm... it was... dull.
it's just a dress-up/soundboard
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars November 13, 2003
Might have been better if you could interact with him a bit more.. instead of just picking his colors and making him make noise in general, instead be able to actually poke him like a real furby? Plus like driptherat said, its a little compact and hard to work with. Cute though
I put the sound files on the side, rather than having it a poke thing because it's a dress-up, and with all those moveable parts, I can't have it interact that way. Thanks for the review.
Rated 4 / 5 stars November 13, 2003
nice one
this game was complete.... maybe a little too much so. Try to make the next one a bit more spacious, and less compact.
This was my 1st dressup. I did sort of run out of space, otherwise, there might've been more items there.
Rated 5 / 5 stars November 13, 2003
another great game!
this was another great game!

Furby is the demonic filth spawned from the loins of a child lusting Catholic priest.
LOL I always wanted to know where Furbies came from.

While tomorrow will mark the second official NCIS episode in which actress Cote de Pablo no longer appears, Executive Producer Gary Glasberg clearly wants everyone to remember her role as Ziva David. In an Xfinity Comcast interview published Oct 14, Glasberg reveals that none of the new characters featured on the show will replace the Israeli former agent.
When specifically asked if new NCIS character Ellie Bishop (portrayed by actress Emily Wickersham) will be Ziva's replacement, Glasberg demurred.
"...at the end of the day, I'm not looking to replace Ziva. I'm looking to add something new and different to the mix." - Gary Glasberg
Glasberg was instrumental in furthering the "will-they, won't-they" romance between Ziva and Agent Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly), dubbed 'Tiva' by fans. In 'Past, Present, Future,' the two characters finally kissed on camera, though many protested it was too little, too late - coming as it did at the end of de Pablo's run on the show.
Glasberg explains to Xfinity that the NCIS characters will continue to feel Ziva's loss for some time.
"We are trying to deal with Tony handling Ziva's absence in as real and organic a way as we can. This was a big deal. This was a woman he felt very strongly about, and this relationship was very, very significant. He is going to feel that for quite some time...It resonates through our entire team...It's little things that will carry through in episodes to come." - Gary Glasberg
de Pablo left the show in the second episode of season 11, 'Past, Present, Future,' citing personal reasons. In episode three ('Under the Radar'), actress Roma Maffia filled in temporarily as Vera Strickland, a retiring special agent once partnered with Mike Franks. In tomorrow night's episode ('Anonymous was a Woman'), Jackie Geary guest stars playing NCIS Agent Susan Grady, a polygraph expert. Glasberg tells Xfinity that Delilah (Margo Harshman), the girlfriend of Agent Tim McGee (Sean Murray), will assist the MCRT with a Department of Defense angle in a future episode.

So why did I buy back my magazine? It's all about risk
Is William Cash mad to plough his fortune into print? Now is the time to invest, he argues
Monday 24 August 2009
Media analysts might think I'm mad. Just over two years after a seven-figure deal in which I sold a 67 per cent stake in
Spear's magazine, the wealth management consumer title I founded, I've bought the title back. The buyout has required me to mortgage my house to raise the capital to produce a title that costs £25 per issue and largely relies for revenue on advertising and events sponsorship – mainly from the badly bruised financial services and luxury goods sector.
We have to get out the autumn issue before the annual Spear's Wealth Management Awards at Christie's on 14 September – the Oscars for the financial services industry, if I say so myself. Lack of time to relocate has forced us to operate temporarily from my flat in Holland Park, west London. The editor's desk is my wife's Nicky Haslam kitchen table. The rest of my furniture has been put into temporary storage near Wolverhampton and 12 desks and computers have been installed for a fortnight's production slog.
So why am I taking such a risk at a time when traditional media is in a downward spiral, financial magazines such as Business Week are being sold off for £1 and even the mighty Condé Nast has had to pull the plug on its glossy business title Portfolio?
The answer to why I'm betting the farm on Spear's is that for media entrepreneurs there has never been a better time to be taking risks and investing money as today, when the whole media landscape is about to change. In the next two years, "premium" paid-for online content will become the normal business model for media brands. Those leading the way will be niche titles, exactly like Spear's, that provide invaluable specialist information readers cannot get elsewhere.
The idea behind Spear's is to turn ourselves into the Michelin guide of wealth management. This is a media sector that has been curiously ignored by the UK for many years but which now, with the credit crunch making many wealthy individuals desperate for independent and objective advice as to how to hang on to their cash, is suddenly booming.
The Financial Times launched FT Wealth as a supplement (two years after I founded Spear's) and top private banks such as JP Morgan and Pictet have come to us to publish glossy supplements about their wealth management services. These are read by our 30,000 readers of high net worth, as well as first-class passengers on British Airways.
Spear's has our Power Indexes in each quarterly issue, ranking and rating the top 100 individuals in each wealth management sector: asset managers, private client lawyers, private bankers, tax and trust advisers, accountants, security firms, art advisers and family offices. It is perfectly positioned to be a pioneer in the paid-for content revolution, as we know that high-net-worths (many of whom have lost all trust in their bankers and £550-per-hour advisers) will very happily pay £100 a year to have access to our lists of the top performers, saving themselves a fortune in so-called "beauty parades" and advisory fees.
Let's say a high-net-worth entrepreneur, based in Marbella, is worried about the motives of his daughter's new fiancé and wants him to sign a pre-nup fast. As a reader of Spear's he will already know pre-nups are now as good as binding in the UK.
Instead of having to fly back to London to interview various lawyers, he – as a premium subscriber – can go online to spearswms.com and immediately conduct a beauty parade of up to 20 pre-nup lawyers that we have ranked according to their performance and our own interviews, along with seeing a three-minute exclusive video (another form of revenue for us) of them web streamed on to our site. He doesn't have to leave his villa.
At the end of this year, we will compile the 1,000 or so names of the top wealth management performers across all sectors and publish a Debrett's-style directory for £100 as an invaluable resource for wealthy individuals and the private client industry. Naturally, most of those included will want to buy a copy, even if it is just to leave it lying around at home.
The credit crunch is an opportunity for brands that move away from advertising into other revenue streams – in our case events, subscriptions, paid-for content, conferences, debates and books. Had the golden age continued, we would just be taking the low-hung ad fruit and not building a real business driven by our exclusive database of 50,000 wealthy Britons – from rock stars to royalty, entrepreneurs to hedgies – that luxury brands and financial services are desperate to access.
When Gordon Brown declared war on banking secrecy at the G20 summit, his words sent my pulse soaring with excitement. By threatening to blacklist such traditional tax havens as Monaco, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, he instantly created a whole new commercial marketing opportunity for lesser known "offshore centres" such as Panama or the British Virgin Islands to market themselves (through advertising or special £50,000 supplements) as an alternative and safer off-shore banking location for the tax-conscious rich (our readers).
I started the magazine in 2005 partly because the FT, while brilliant in so many ways as the paper of record for the financial sector, was too mass-market to talk directly to a new, wealthy audience whose financial and personal needs were uniquely different. I realised we were on to something when we sent out the pilot issue of Spear's with the Annabel's magazine, read by the 10,000 members of that exclusive Mayfair club, and I got a call from a very wealthy but stressed member of Annabel's. "My housekeeper has mislaid my copy of your new wealth magazine," he said. "I was just reading a very interesting article about why not to get divorced in London. Can I send round my driver to pick up a new copy? Make that six, as I want my friends to read it too."
Half an hour later, a sleek Mercedes S-class pulled up outside the kebab shop above which we operated, and the chauffeur came to collect the copies. I have no idea if we saved the caller a fortune, but I like to think we did.
