VANCOUVER -- "I NEED TICKETS" screamed the signs hanging from the necks of the scalpers, in the style of a homeless person asking for a handout or a hitchhiker looking for a ride to Manitoba. They meandered in and out of the crowd in Vancouver's Robson Square, the center of Olympic fan activities in the host city.
You've seen this scene before, but its overtness – taking place right outside the official ticket pickup location -- was striking. Scalping must be legal in Canada, eh?
I love ticket scalpers. As people they are often slimier than moss-covered rocks. But as a student of markets and consumer behavior, they provide me with endless hours of amusement. Ticket scalping is one of the purest forms of a true marketplace you'll ever find -- buyers and sellers negotiating under extreme time pressure, both saddled with limited information and high risks, bidding on a commodity that is both perishable and scarce. Fifteen minutes before game time, this market is extremely efficient.
Event holders hate scalpers, of course. They say they are trying to protect consumers from fraud. Counterfeits happen, as do lies about seat location, but given the complete anonymity of the transactions, I'm constantly amazed at the relative lack of fraud in scalping. While related, scalping (a secondary ticket market) and fraud (counterfeit tickets) are really different problems. In reality, I think promoters are just jealous. When scalpers sell tickets at well above face value, they embarrass promoters by revealing that the tickets were underpriced.
Naturally, the more amateurish the ticket buyers, and the more professional the sellers, the more money the scalpers make. And the more anonymous the transaction -- say, the more distance between hometowns of buyer and seller -- the easier it is to run a scam.
That brings us to the subject of Olympic ticket sales, which create ideal conditions for all manner of scams and overpricing. The Olympics arrive only every four years and often play out in small venues, making tickets scarce and valuable. Buyers invest an outrageous amount of money and time just to get to the scene. If they come without tickets, the pressure to get some is immense. So they usually come hat in hand to scalpers. Moreover, would-be scammers who sell for local baseball or football games have at least a small chance of seeing their victims in the future. Olympian scams pose almost no risk to the criminal, who will probably be half a world away by the time the ruse is exposed.
Perhaps the largest Olympic ticket scam in history occurred two years ago. During the Beijing games, dozens of Olympic athlete families were scammed by a Web site, estimated to have stolen millions of dollars from would-be fans.
The Vancouver Olympic Committee set out to prevent a similar debacle, using the only trick that such agencies ever consider: making money off scalping. In Vancouver, neither scalping nor exchanging tickets is allowed. Resold tickets can be "deactivated" and made invalid for events, the Olympic committee warns. It says anyone who wants to sell tickets must use the "fan-to-fan" Internet marketplace set up by the Olympic committee. The good news: tickets are relatively easy to find. The bad news: the agency makes 10 percent off both the sale and the purchase of the tickets. Even worse: High demand tickets are being sold eBay auction style. This week, opening bids for tickets to the "preliminary round" Canada-U.S. hockey game were listed as high as $10,000 -- not including the $1,000 "marketplace" fee.
So how is state-sponsored scalping doing at tamping down illicit sales? I went to Vancouver without event tickets to have a look. Knowing about the ticket troubles in Beijing, I fully expected the organized Canadians to have beaten down the business. Far from it.
'Relaxed about things'
Placard-wearing sellers were easily found, yelling like carnival barkers at the crowd, just above the child skating rink and popular free rip-cord line set up for the Games revelers. Within earshot -- heck, close enough for a body check -- were uniformed sheriff's officers (provincial law enforcement) ignoring the activity. Tickets were going for double their face value, more in some cases. The scalpers showed no fear of law enforcement. It was easy to spot the ringleader, going from seller to seller, whispering something in their ears every few minutes.
Vancouver -- a city where people say "I'm sorry" for passing you on the sidewalk -- is trying its darnedest to be friendly for the World. Volunteers in blue jackets that say "Ask me" are everywhere. So I asked. Is scalping legal?
"No. But you know, we are a bit more relaxed about those things here," said one, who for obvious reasons didn't want to be named. But he then warned me about the counterfeit ticket problem, before asking why Americans don't know where Manitoba is.
Ten minutes later, I spotted two men and a woman wearing electric yellow sheriff's jackets, standing about 20 feet from a man selling tickets. I turned my back to him, quietly showed them my press pass, and inquired: "What is the law in British Columbia?" I discovered that I'd apparently stumbled on the Canadian equivalent of the Pentagon Papers.
"You'll have to ask the by-law people."
"You can't tell me what the law is?"
"You'll have to ask the by-law people."
"What if I don't ask you as a reporter, just as a person who might buy a ticket. Is it legal to do so?"
"You'll have to ask the by-law people."
Not among my best interviews.
I was about to ask the obvious question ("What's a by-law person?") when one of them spotted a polite way out of the conversation.
"Go ask him, that guy on the bike over there."
The guy on the bike was a Vancouver city cop. He also didn't want to be quoted. But he was serious.
"It's illegal to sell anything without a permit in the city of Vancouver," he told me. "You are subject to a $250 fine and seizure of the items you're selling."
The fine hardly seemed a big risk, given the potential financial rewards, but the officer assured me that he was not to be taken lightly.
"I have about 50 or 60 tickets right here," he said, pointing to his backpack. "Some guys lost a lot of money today."
At this point, I scanned the horizon. No scalpers were in sight. Clearly, they were afraid of this cop.
He also warned about counterfeiters.
"The guys from France of Germany are long gone by the time you are at your event and can't get in," he said.
Despite this policeman's welcome clarity, my confusion over the legality of ticket scalping grew even more as the day wore on. While I was hearing about confiscated tickets, the Vancouver organizing committee was busy telling reporters that scalping was indeed legal.
"It's important for those of you who may not be from (British Columbia) to know that scalping is not illegal here," committee spokeswoman Renee Marie-Valade said at a news conference, according to a transcript provided by NBC. "So we are certainly aware that people may be selling tickets. We keep a close eye out for it."
She then went to great pains to steer prospective customers to her agency's Web site.
" The best advice to any consumer who is still looking to buy a ticket … particularly if you are thinking about buying from someone that's offering them on the street is to be very, very wary of that because that ticket may end up leaving you disappointed at the entrance to the venue," she said.
Almost scammed
Just how big a problem are counterfeits?
Joseph Rupolo of Long Island, N.Y., said he stopped his father on Tuesday, just moments before he was about to shell out $200 at Robson Square for fake tickets to a women's hockey game. Rupolo, an intern for the NBC Olympics team, had seen legitimate tickets at the office, with their trademark hologram logo. The tickets his father was about to buy were missing the logo.
"I checked the competition schedule later that day and found that Sweden wasn't even competing against Japan that evening," he said.
He then spent the afternoon pricing tickets on Craigslist and other online sources -- which are plentiful, if risky. A man named Cory offered to sell tickets to the men's hockey semifinal for $1,000.
"I have the hard copy tickets here in Vancouver and will exchange in person at my place or at a bank. I will provide full proof of purchase and validity upon exchange," he wrote in an e-mail.
Goal! Eventually
Robert Broughton of New Westminster, British Columbia, told me he actually managed to successfully buy scalped tickets earlier this week in the Vancouver suburb of Richmond, but not without a bit of agony. First, he tried to attend the women's 3,000 meter speed skating race, but prices ranged from $250 to $400 each. He headed back to the train, where a seller hard-pitched him a ticket for $300, even though the event had already started.
But over at Thunderbird Arena, where women's hockey is being played, he managed to buy a spare ticket from an "amateur" seller for face value at $50 -- after milling about for nearly an hour.
His advice: "Don't waste your time talking to professional scalpers, especially ones with thick English accents. Their sole objective is to cheat you."
Yes, many scalpers are pros. In fact, Broughton recognized some of the sellers from 1994, when he attended the Lillehammer, Norway games.
For obvious reasons, there is no good data on the amount of scalping at Olympic Games, and no way to know if Vancouver is doing better or worse than other games. With 1.6 million tickets for sale this time around, there's plenty of opportunity for mischief – and last-minute ticket purchases. It's quite clear, however, that the Vancouver Olympic Committee's efforts to stamp out fraud and scalping by profiting off of it have not been an unqualified success.
Houston-based attorney Jim Moriarty, who was a ticket scam victim in Houston, now runs a Web site called Olympic Ticket Scam. He blames continued ticket problems on the International Olympic Committee's convoluted process for purchasing tickets and the fact that it makes tickets so scarce that athlete family members have trouble getting into events.
"There is a Code of Points used in the judging system for gymnastics. Where is the Code of Ethics for ticket distribution?" he asked in a recent post on his Web site. "There are volumes of rules and regulations for each Olympic sport; for judging; and for procedures. ... The specifics for distributing tickets? Not so clear."
Broughton, the Canadian fan who bought tickets from scalpers, also complained that Olympic tickets are kept artificially scarce, with many going to corporate partners, leaving few for local fans and travelers. As evidence for his complaint, he pointed to empty seats at many events.
"After the game started, there were at least 500 empty seats at a supposedly sold-out event," he complained. "I'm still steamed about all the empty seats at the women's ice hockey game on Sunday. I would love to hear a reporter ask the' People In Charge' who holds these tickets, so that we all know that they were inconsiderate enough to leave them in a desk drawer."
Reporters did ask Marie-Valade about the empty seat problem. She said the committee had a "ticket SWAT team" looking into the problem, and offered this explanation.
"It's a complex environment because we have tickets that are sold to the public. Typically, what we are seeing is those seats that are sold the public are being used. Some of the blocs that you are seeing may in fact be not used through a variety of different programs that we have," she said. "We have an obligation to provide seats to athletes who may or may not be able to come watch the sports. There are a range of Olympic Family programs that provide seating. We are always looking at those and there's a whole team of people who go to each sport event and look at where the empty seats are and come back and analyze what we can do for the next one to make sure those seats are filled. "
Readers of Ron Paul would say that attempts to regulate ticket sales have predictably failed, and that a thriving black market has developed -- as always happens when any agency seeks to artificially control the distribution of goods and services. There is little argument that capitalism is alive and well in Vancouver. Right next to the scalpers were tables of women selling the must-have fashion accessory of these games -- poofy red mittens that say "Canada" and include the familiar maple leaf. They sold for $23 on Robson Square. At the drugstore five blocks away, they cost $12.99.

I loved whatever House of Vegetarian did to whatever food I was eating. I was welcomed in by a happy-peppy-quiet, middle-aged woman who looked like she lived there. Beside some soy-sauce splattered on the wall, she seated us with little ado and no initial forks. I ordered the lemon chicken (9) and 3-mshrm rice (5). Servings were generous; mshrms were unlike anything; full of meaty, aromatic flavor, and piled upon cabbage and fresh rice. The chicken was either crusty or soft-sweet, sour, spicy or tart, fully embodied the mouth-watering meatiness of my youth. Dim, modest, bizarre, and quaint. If youre looking for tasty, artfully-crafted, and cheap Asian-vegetarian knockoffs, and respect that waitresses are as culturally diverse as the food they serve, then this is your place.

When a manmade or natural disaster strikes Orange County, residents may be required to be self-sufficient for up to 5 days or more before help or assistance arrives. Are you prepared? The links below can help assist you:
Make a family plan, communications plan, build a kit, pets plan, special needs planning.
Read more about our community volunteering & preparedness opportunities.
Government links for additional information:
What types of supplies should I keep on hand for emergency situations?
The Orange County Sheriff's Department Emergency Management Bureau recommends that citizens keep enough supplies at home to meet family needs for at least 72 hours, since it may take that long before outside assistance is available from the state or federal government. Home disaster supply kits should be made up from sturdy and easy to carry containers such as backpacks, duffel bags or large trash containers in the event that you may have to evacuate and take your emergency supplies with you. These emergency supply kits should contain a number of things including the following:
What actions should I take if told to evacuate my home?
In some situations evacuation is the only protective action available to protect the public, if time permits. If you are advised to evacuate, first consider going to the homes of relatives or friends, or checking into a hotel or motel outside the danger area. If these locations are not feasible then you will need to go to a shelter site, but remember that most shelter sites will not allow pets to be brought in due to health, safety and space reasons. Follow instructions provided by press releases, tv/radio and other notification methods such as mass notification, web sites or hotline instructions.
If instructed to evacuate:
What should I do if told to "Shelter in Place"?
In certain situations when an emergency occurs so quickly that there is insufficient time to evacuate, or an evacuation would actually place more people in danger, it is necessary to "Shelter in Place". If this should occur, immediately go inside your home or the nearest structure (if you are at work or away from you home), if you have a pet get it inside too, and do the following:
If you're in an automobile, roll the windows up, close all vents, turn off the fan and leave the area immediately.

By Molly McGonigle
New York native Paz de la Huerta has had one of the most remarkable years of her career. Her show "Boardwalk Empire" has been showered with Emmys and Golden Globes, and there has been lots of buzz over her scantily clad character, Lucy. Outside of the show, she's gotten attention for her eclectic fashion choices and occasionally wild behavior. With "Boardwalk Empire" returning to HBO Sunday for its second season, Paz chatted with Wonderwall about her character, being comfortable in her own skin and what she's looking forward to out of her career.
Wonderwall: What is in store for Lucy this season?
Paz de la Huerta: "The audience is going to see the real side of Lucy, kind of stripped of everything she had, because one, she is not with 'Nucky' [Steve Buscemi] anymore. In the first season she was very insecure; in those ages, it wasn't like women could have the opportunity that women have now. She thought the only way to get what she wanted was through her sexuality. This season, she is still very sexy, but the audience will see her more vulnerable and just stripped of everything materialistic. They will realize how courageous she is: She will not stop at anything to get what she needs."
WW: Are you comfortable playing such a sultry character?
PDLH: "Why should I be uncomfortable? In order to be a good actress you have to be able to get naked, and when I say that I mean naked emotionally. America is such a prude country; I am European and nothing is wrong with nudity. Its natural to be sexual; sex is a big part of life."
WW: Do you enjoy dressing up in the period costumes for the show?
PDLH: "John Dunn [costume designer] is a genius. They are the most impeccable costumes. You go into the costumes department and it's like 200 people. The '20s is an era of clothes that I wouldn't say its my favorite. … I personally like '40s, '50s style more. Lucy Danziger definitely embodies [a sexual revolution] because right before the '20s, it was all about corsets, and then the '20s came along and women stopped wearing bras and wore these loose dresses, so that they felt very free and open."
WW: How do you manage to keep your personal life private during the busiest year of your career?
PDLH: "I think it's really a choice. I am not in this business to be famous. If that comes with the territory, then so be it. I've always used what I do as like therapy for me; it's how I heal. When I work with directors, I don't really want them to know what's going on in my private life, because how I get to a certain point emotionally is none of anybody's business. You have to be in it for the right reason. Here are some people that think it's all about looking good and wearing fashionable clothes and this and that, but that is not what it's all about. I know for me, I feel acting has saved me. I don't think I would be a functional person if I wasn't an actress."
WW: What do you hope to achieve in your future?
PDLH: "I was also very ill as a child -- I have lymphatic problems, and I spent a lot of time in the hospital alone. I volunteer at the Children's Hospital in L.A., and I would love to make enough money so that I could open up hospitals/schools/orphanages for children to try to give them opportunities. That's my ultimate dream."

Care to retort, Heretic?
No, he won't. This is one of the points that I discussed with Stan months ago. He said only casein-aflatoxin was a problem in The China Study and pretended to be interested if anyone had evidence for casein's promoting other cancers etc. As usual, once he's effectively proved wrong he abandons that argument until a later point in time.
OK, I went and found where he said this before and where a couple of us responded (his post is about halfway down the page). TanneryG, your Q2 might have some answer here as well:
http://www.drmcdougall.com/forums/viewt ... c&start=15
Heretic wrote:Again please post a study link! I am not saying that it is not impossible, only that I have not seen any source other than Campbell. I do not have Campbell's book.
hope101 wrote:Perhaps we could do it the other way. Rather than us come up with the burden of proof for our choice--on a board advocating a low fat, whole foods plant-based lifestyle--those who still have genuine doubt could pose their question to Jeff. I suspect you'll need more than one rat study to undermine his breadth of knowledge.
karin_kiwi wrote:Heretic wrote:Ann685 wrote:Campbell cited and repeated studies in "The China Study" where animal protein actually caused cancer tumors to grow. Switching to plant protein caused the cancer tumors to shrink. His studies convinced me that animal protein is a key factor in cancer growth.
To me this means that even though we come in contact with carcinogenes, our chances of actually becoming diseased with cancer are very low if we eat a plant based diet.
This is not the case. Campbell investigated carcinogenic effects of aflatoxins (a type of mold toxins) present sometimes in certain plant produce like nuts or grains, that are made worse by the presence of casein (milk protein) but not by other proteins. Thus his conclusions may be applicable to aflatoxins in conjunction with casein but not to animal protein in general. In addition, Campbell himself is supposed to have published the following data after his China Study research which does not seem to support the theory that animal protein were any more correlated with cancer than plant protein:Campbell's publication wrote:FIGURE 1: Associations of Selected Variables with Mortality for All Cancers
Carbohydrates +23% [HIGHEST CORRELATION WITH CANCER]
Fiber +21%
Total Calories +16%
Total Protein +12%
Plant Protein +12%
Fish Protein +7%
Animal Protein +3%
Total Lipids -6%
Fat % Calories -17%
Fat(questionnaire) -29%* [MOST NEGATIVE CORRELATION WITH CANCER]

Capitalized text in square brackets are my comments.
Stan (Heretic)
Junshi, Chen, T. Colin Campbell, Li Junyao, and Richard Peto, Diet, Life-style and Mortality in China: A Study of the Characteristics of 65 Chinese Counties, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1990
Stan, the actual book I think you're referring to is "Mortality, Biochemistry, Diet and Lifestyle in Rural China: Geographic Study of the Characteristics of 69 Counties in Mainland China and 16 Areas in Taiwan" published in 2006. This book is simply raw data tables and anyone with half a brain knows that looking at a single table means nothing, especially out of context. You are in possession of a full brain and therefore know that doing this kind of thing is manipulative and done only with the intention of making a point that cannot be made with a fuller picture.
Unless you're going to say that Campbell is deliberately misleading people with fraudulent interpretation of the data, then The China Study should be regarded as what Campbell believes as a result of his entire career in the field - including interpretation of all the data and tables in that book. His position on animal protein (not just casein) is quite clear and based on many forms of protein.
You are only partly right about the casein - that was the protein in the rat studies. However, the human observations that prompted the rat studies showed a relationship between cancer formation in response to aflatoxin and total animal protein intake - not just casein. In The China Study, Campbell very clearly implicates animal protein in general (not just casein, which was not generally consumed by the Chinese in the study) as a primary factor that affects cancer and mortality. Animal protein intake even at the very low levels consumed by the Chinese (relative to Americans) had a strong correlation. I think that you know this and are choosing not to acknowledge it because it doesn't meet your agenda. As usual.
This is not a McDougall debate board, this is a McDougall support board. I'm getting very sick of the challenges and the posts supporting diets that are totally inconsistent with the McDougall Program. Not just from Stan, although he's by far the worst offender. He's not even pretending to seek information - he's just furthering his goal of promoting his own views and creating discord. Please be clear I'm not talking about posts from people who are genuinely questioning and seeking information, which of course are appropriate.
I personally wish that these anti-program posts could be removed or at least relocated to a special board dedicated to being a place to debate or challenge aspects of the program. I'm seeing more and more people utterly confused because of these posts, some of which are coming from people who are generally fairly well-informed and have promoted their healthcare/medical qualifications here - even though some of what they say directly contradicts McDougall (yeah, Geoffrey, this is you, too - though I do appreciate that your posts are well-intentioned, unlike Stan's). Everyone's entitled to their opinions, but the McDougall Support Board is not the place to promote alternative views and undermine the program. This kind of discussion is inappropriate for a place that contains lots of people who've barely skimmed the McDougall website, much less read any of the books properly, and are looking to the people here to inform them about what the McDougall program is and how it helps.
I don't want this to turn into the kind of place it was when it was at VS.
Rant over.

Targeting immigrants?
on April 22, 2013 @ 6:52 am (Updated: 8:13 am - 4/22/13 )Senator Charles Grassley says since the two Boston Marathon Bombers weren't born here - it might be prudent to take a closer look at the immigration bill now before his committee.
"How do we ensure that people who wish to do us harm are not eligible for benefits under the immigration laws - including this new bill before us?" asked Grassley.
Others share similar concerns.
What fascinates me is the Senate couldn't find a way to pass a compromise on background checks for gun buyers, on the grounds that it would be wrong to inconvenience GOOD gun users just to get at a few BAD gun users.
And yet now, some senators appear to be ready to punish GOOD immigrants to get at the few BAD ones.
Well, in Boston, there were immigrants on both sides.
Carlos Arredondo - the man in the cowboy hat who helped that victim whose lower legs were blown off. He's an immigrant from Costa Rica.
And Lu Lingzhi, the third bomb victim to be identified - she grew up on the grounds of an elite training academy for members of the Chinese Communist party! But she'd fallen in love with Boston. That's why she ended up at the Marathon.
Boston was different from Newtown. It was a terrifying attack on a big public event, not a small elementary school. But if the Senate ends up punishing all immigrants because of a terrifying attack with a death toll of three - it's even harder to explain why they responded with a shrug to a terrifying attack with a death toll of 26.

I'm looking for a name for a character who has a very strong personality and I want a name that expresses that. She's very independent, impulsive, confident. She's the kind of girl who fights for herself and has been on her own for a very long time.
I have another character who's a negative version of this character who I've named 'Flair.' So I'm looking for something a little different from this and unique on its own

Maybe you could elaborate more on the character's situation, the setting of your story, and other characters' names (besides Flair) that it would fit in. Obviously a name for that character personality would be different if your story was set in Victorian England that should it be a fantasy.
Judging that your other character's name is Flair, I'm guessing your story is either a dystopian or a fantasy.
I wold go down the path of consonants like V, K, D, R and Z
Some examples: Vera, Keira, Delphi, Viva, Zinnia, Azula, Valeria, Aviva, Azalea, Desdemona, Riya, Rowan, Reina, Riva, Rhea, Katya, Katarina

Deep breaths, everyone. I really wish GameInformer had picked a less sensationalist headline.
What the email from Microsoft actually said:
1) XNA is being retired from the MVP program on April 1 of 2014.
To start with, what is the MVP program? The MVP program is the Most Valuable Professional program at Microsoft. Microsoft MVPs are independent community leaders who help people around the world learn to better use Microsoft products. The MVP program is Microsoft's way of saying "thank you" to those leaders for their promotion and passion for Microsoft.
Before now, had you ever heard of the MVP program? I'm betting not - and if you had, you hadn't heard of it in connection with the RBN. That's because most (all?) RBN authors are uninvolved with the greater XNA community. As far as I know, there are no XNA-related Microsoft MVPs among the RBN authors. (As far as I know, there aren't even any at Harmonix.)
In short, the cessation of this program doesn't affect us. And if it did, it wouldn't affect us for over a year.
2) XNA is "not in active development".
This ought to come as no surprise. XNA was launched all the way back in 2006, so it's almost 7 years old at this point. XNA releases used to come out roughly once a year, but the last release for Microsoft XNA (XNA Game Studio 4.0 Refresh, updating XNA Game Studio 4.0 to support Windows 7.5) was on 10/6/11.
Why shouldn't we expect another release of XNA? Giant Bomb has more info here (http://www.giantbomb.com/news/the-fu...indows-8/3667/), but to sum up, the basic answer is Windows 8. As conceived right now, Windows 8 is the future of Microsoft and XNA is an aging framework that doesn't produce Metro-style apps.
But the RBN doesn't need Metro-style apps, or Windows 8, or even Xbox compatibility. Although the RBN takes advantage of the existing XNA framework, we are not producing games for Xbox or Windows phone - so we don't need the XNA framework to be updated. We just need the underlying XNA framework to be there, and to remain supported - supported, not actively developed - by Microsoft.
As long as Microsoft continues to support our specific use of the XNA pipeline, we're fine. And our plan is to support RBN for Xbox 360 as long as Microsoft continues to support us.
Wishing you a drama-free day,

Shaking babies and kissing hands
I mean shaking hands and kissing babies! How many of you have heard this term? How many of you have seen a politician kiss a baby, or your baby? Not me that's for sure (because I don't have any yet). Now that it's almost election month every politician running for anything is doing everything they can to win the vote. Now I understand why a politician would want to kiss babies. Everyone loves babies and if the candidate shows that he or she loves babies they assume kissing them will garner public support. This practice appears to have started during the Jackson Democracy along with similar, non-topic political pushing practices such as badges, and pins. What I don't understand is why someone would hand over their baby to someone they don't even know? I mean I get the fact that this person, being a public figure, is probably not going to run off with the kid. But do you know where their hands have been?

Want to know something … fast? It's not rocket science! The first thing you do, when you want to find something out, or find someone, is … search on google.
We're all very familiar with typing what we need, or who we need, into the google search box and finding instant gratification from the results!
You are just one of billions of people doing this. The numbers for Google searches are absolutely staggering:
34,000 searches per second;
2 million per minute;
121 million per hour;
3 billion per day;
88 billion per month … (figures rounded) Source: Search Engine Land.
So, it stands to reason that you, as a professional property person, need to be "find-able" via google. "Why?", you may say. Well, it's simply because business is moving on-line and if you want to be relevant, and credible, then you need to be where the action is! And the action is on the web.
Some examples of what is happening now …. (and this is only going to increase in the future as the web invades every aspect of our lives):
- Tenants are increasingly vetting Landlords on-line before deciding to take a property to see if the Landlord has a track record of professionalism.
- Lenders are increasingly searching on-line as part of the "vetting process" for mortgage applications to see if you are a professional person.
- Tradespeople will search you out on-line to find out if any other tradespeople have had problems being paid on time.
- If you are searching for JV partners, the first thing they will do is "google" you to see if you have a track record of successful projects.
Anyone considering doing any form of business transaction is going to look you up on-line and "check you out". It's called due diligence and google is king.
The transparency of the web rewards those who reveal, rather than conceal, so it would be wise to invest time in building a strong on-line brand … and part of that is setting up professional profiles.
These should be populated with a small biography, professional photograph, professional avatar, links to your websites, and full contact details.
Some sites that are ranked highly by google that are powerful and relevant for property people are: Google+, Twitter,Property Tribes, LinkedIn, Ecademy, YouTube, FaceBook and Yulpa.
I have profiles on all these sites … as you will see if you click on the links above. I regularly up-date these to keep them fresh. Otherwise, they start to look the equivalent of a shop with no new stock in the window and dust on the shelves.
Here is an example of one of Nick's professional profiles:
Notice how consistent both of us are with how we present ourselves on-line. It makes it easy for people to recognise us across the different spaces. Having a funky hairstyle (in Nick's case) is surprisingly eye-catching! (We were even recognised in a busy hotel lobby by James Davis, CEO of Upad, who we ended up doing business with!).
Those of us that build up a long tail of contribution and helping and supporting others on the social web, will be far easier to "check out" in the future. We can become known via our content and profiles. I use my real name and picture everywhere I go on the web and have done for the past five years. Posting online using a false name and avatar is paying three times over – with your attention, your time, and fuelling a site – but you will never be able to get a return on that investment. Maybe some people don't want to, and that's fine, but if their circumstances change in the future, they may need it.
It takes at least a year to get traction on-line in my experience. In order to future-proof yourself, you should consider doing it regardless of what your business is at this moment in time. Your web contribution will become the equivalent of your CV.
Your reputation is priceless. Your on-line reputation is the future of your property business. Are you investing in building it?
To get started: Put your own name into google and see what, if anything, comes up about you. Then create professional profiles on the sites mentioned above.

I hope you find this blog insightful and get started with building your on-line brand. The best time to start is now.

Middle Men by Jim Gavin | Book review
Gavin's debut collection stars middle-class men adrift.
Before adding "author" and "New Yorker contributor" to his résumé, Jim Gavin held down some grittier jobs—gas-station manager, game-show assistant, toilet salesman—and these experiences seep into many of the stories and characters in his debut collection. While most are narrated by feckless young men in Southern California, the stories in Middle Men will still hit close to home for a wide swath of readers.
What elevates these tales above the foibles of manchildren is how intimately Gavin understands that state of being professionally and emotionally adrift. With impressive precision, he describes everything from being creatively unfulfilled to dodging landlords looking for back rent. Money—or the lack thereof—is almost a secondary character in Middle Men, from the Costco-brand lasagna the young protagonist of "Play the Man" is forced to eat ("a bottomless pit of goo that had lasted three days") to the unspoken debts between the doomed couple in "Bermuda."
The actual secondary characters, however, leave the most lasting impression, including the Hollywood game-show writer who takes smoke breaks in a leather gimp mask while waving to tourists on the lot ("Elephant Doors"), and the grizzled mentor taking a hapless salesman to a debased industry-only afternoon luau ("The Luau"). They provide consistently witty dialogue, and show varying degrees of ease with their lot in life, lending hope to the main characters. When Gavin adopts the perspective of a retired plumber in the final story, "Costello," his writing achieves new insight, power and grace. One hopes he might widen his thematic lens next time, and yet it's his steady focus on middle-class Americans' quest for meaning that binds this collection together.

Most strokes are not preceded by a mini-stroke; but, if they are, they happen quickly – usually within 24 hours of the TIA – so people should seek immediate treatment.
A recent study found that about half the people who experience a full-blown stroke after having a mini-stroke will do so within 24 hours of the minor event.
A mini-stroke or warning stroke, known as a transient ischemic attack or TIA, is a momentary blockage of blood flow in a brain artery.
A recent issue of Neurology reported that about half of the TIA patients studied, who had a recurrent stroke, did so within the next 24 hours.
Typically, the 90-day risk of stroke after a TIA is three to 17.3 percent, highest within the first 30 days. Fourteen percent of people who survive a first stroke or TIA will have another one within a year. Males and African-Americans have higher rates of TIA than other groups.
A mini-stroke can cause major problems
People who have a TIA should seek medical treatment immediately, especially if they are experiencing traditional stroke symptoms. The average TIA lasts about a minute. Unlike a stroke, it causes no injury to the brain, according to the American Heart Association.
The key to treating a stroke is recognizing the symptoms and getting to the hospital immediately. The clot-dissolving drug tPA (tissue plasminogen activator) can reduce long-term disability if given within three hours after a stroke starts. That drug is the only FDA-approved medication for the treatment of stroke within three hours of stroke symptom onset.
Well-known stroke or TIA symptoms include:
* Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body
* Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding words
* Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes
* Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
* Sudden severe headache with no known cause
The short duration of these symptoms and the lack of permanent brain injury mark the main difference between a stroke and a TIA.
Risk factors of stroke include age, gender, race, family history and personal history of diabetes and stroke.
Robot link speeds stroke care
Western Baptist has teamed with the University of Louisville stroke center to make stroke specialists available in this region 24 hours a day, via a robot network. From the mobile robot, a wireless Internet link allows specialists in Louisville to interact with patients, families, physicians and nurses at Western Baptist. The specialist's face is displayed on a video screen, and the voice is audible while he or she converses with and examines a patient in Paducah.
Via the robotic connection, U of L physicians can check patients' cognitive reactions, study CT scans, observe vital signs and speak with family members. Once a diagnosis is made, Western Baptist staff can administer the IV medication, allowing the patient to stay close to home; or transfer the patient quickly to Louisville if more advanced intervention is required.
Chest Pain and Stroke Hotline
For help identifying signs and symptoms of stroke, phone our award-winning Chest Pain and Stroke Hotline at 1-800-575-1911 to speak with a registered nurse at Western Baptist.

Dear Editor:
I just wanted to say as a new resident to Milton how wonderful the Christmas season was here.
My family and I attended the Milton Santa Claus Parade, and I must say the 'Rudolph' bus was our favourite. Watching the people of Milton donate toys and food to share the Christmas spirit was heartwarming. It reminds you about the true meaning of Christmas. I've lived in larger cities (Brampton and Mississauga) and have never seen such a bus in the parade.
Well you can imagine our surprise to see 'Rudolph' on the road with passengers on board in December. It was great to see a transit system celebrating with its residents. It became a game for my family and I at night to find 'Rudolph'.
We managed to take a ride one evening, as we made a special trip to the train station specifically to see 'Rudolph' up close. To our delight, the bus was decorated for Christmas inside and out. The driver was very friendly, with a warm and welcome smile, and we were given a candy cane when we got on the bus.
Thank you Milton Transit for bringing a holiday smile to this new family in town.
