A new dog can be perfectly happy pulling you over, down the street and nearly choking themselves out
Let's talk about leash pressure, or pressure in general. Different dogs will react differently when they first experience the leash.
Problems worsen when the dog is pulling. Sure, because the animal has to work hard to stay focused on his or her task at hand. The dog can be pulling towards a distraction, or traveling back to us. We can add leash pressure to either one of these situations. We could also look at the dog's energy level. Are they at a high or low level of energy? Is the dog in an instinctual drive, perhaps chasing an animal?
We are bringing these things up so that we don't unintentionally create the opposite of what we are trying to do. Many of the training collars available on the market are aimed at making it more clear to the dog whether he or she is feeling the pressure of the leash or not. Here's a list of a few common anti-pulling devices: halties, chokers, pinch/prong collars, dominate dog collars, chest harness's ,Cezars Pack Leader collar and more.
A dog that is following you, will take directions very well. He's already following you and focused on you, so this is a great starting point for any additional tasks you may ask of the dog. Just getting the dog to commit to the task of walking where you walk will create a great deal of focus. Pulling on the leash should be a signal for the dog to come to you. If a dog is new to this kind of training exercise, they may resist your leash, or constantly be pursuing other lines of interest. As you begin to put it into practice, the problems will seem to lessen as your dog more easily can commit to and stay in the behavior of following you, or walking with you.
Most dog owners make this mistake of wearing the dogs collar too low. 2 inches can make a world of difference in how responsive your dog is to the leash. A harness that attaches the leash to the dogs back gives us little to no control over the dogs movements. In comparison, a head halter that wraps around the dogs muzzle will give us a lot of control over our dog.
You got your leash on your dog, now it's time to do something with it.
- Step one: Do nothing. If you'd like to tether your dog somewhere for a moment, that's ok to. Your dog will learn that the leash is restricting him or her from traveling to many different distractions.
- Step two: With the leash in hand now, start traveling around behind your dog and teaching him to turn towards you. The turn is the first step to a dog traveling in a straight line to you.
- Step Three: Start reeling your dog in, keeping a close eye on how the dog is responding. If the dog really struggles on flat ground, you can start on a hill, or in a doorway. Using the leash to get your dog comfortably moving in and out of vehicles can be another good starting point.
Bad behavior on leash is a common problem, but don't fret. There are people that have been through what you're going through. Most professional dog trainers can help you get your dogs leash behavior under control. The bigger the dog the more important it is to teach good leash response and make a point of maintaining your expectation of what should happen.

Formula 409 is a cleaning staple in homes and businesses around the world. The powerful all-purpose cleaner with the unusual name has a history in the commercial sector.
Formula 409 was created in 1957 by the Rouff brothers, three scientists from Detroit, Michigan. The brothers worked for Gem Products, an industrial cleaning solution manufacturer. As their intention was to create a heavy-duty degreaser for commercial degreasing, alkaline was a main ingredient in this powerful cleaner.
Gem Products sold Formula 409 to Chemsol in 1960. Chemsol toned down the chemical content of the formula in to a product gentle enough for standard home use. In the mid-1960s, entrepreneurs Harrell, Woodcock and Linkletter bought the product and promoted it on the national level through television commercials. Clorox eventually purchased the Formula 409 brand.
The Formula 409 name has been a source of speculation for decades. Contrary to popular belief, the number 409 has nothing to do with a birth date, telephone area code or Beach Boys' song.
It was not until the 409th try that Gem Products was able to discover the perfect chemical mixture for degreasing needs.
The Clorox Company further developed the brand. In addition to the original all-purpose cleaner, Formula 409 is available in antibacterial, glass and window and carpet spot cleaning varieties.
Fun Fact
A 1960s television commercial for Formula 409 featured animated pin-up girl Betty Boop singing as she cleaned with a hulky bottle of the solution.

Borderline Blogger Nut-Brown Ale
It's been a hard day. You've been up since 5:44 A.M. searching the net for Von Mises quotes, swimming laps at the Y, filling out your 500th "Citizen Request for Disinformation", and picking out an appropriate ensemble for tonight's school board meeting. (Borderliners always look good with orange, penitentiary style, pants and duck tape accessories, but tonight you'll settle for the "Defeat Hudson Socialists" T-shirt, and matching "Dubbya Bush 08" baseball cap.) On top of all that you have to set an hour or two aside for some wealth building activities. Being a warrior in the battle to destroy public education is damn hard, thankless work. You still have those lectures to the editor to write to HSO for the next 22 weeks, and papers to file before you make your next election run for the school board. By 2:00 A.M., when your sitting in the basement, at the keyboard, in your boxers, finishing up your last attack on some newly invited blog intruder who wandered onto your cyber shooting gallery (I think it was "citizen" who deviated from the borderline"script", and used a socialist term like "fair") you're about ready to lay back in the lazy boy and enjoy the latest libation from Von Mises Breweries (TM), a cold bottle of Borderline Blogger Nut-Brown Ale.
Borderline Blogger Nut-Brown Ale's full bodied, like you, with just a hint of that skunk scent that borderliners unconsciously exude. Its the kind of brew that put's hair on your chest and helps you say to the world "Watch out lady School District Superintendent, I'm gunning for ya." Like St. Croix Blogger Lager, it comes in the easily recognizable, non-recyclable plain brown bottle, the same kind great-grandpa'd have after a 12hr shift at the paper mill a hundred years ago, before all those socialist entitlements, like workman's compensation, got passed by the givernment. Great-grandpa never really needed his left hand he lost in the mill accident for drinking.
Boy, didn't great-grandpa have it good without all those pesky taxes taken out of his $12 Thursday check he'd spend at Dick's bar.
After a dozen or two Nut-Browns, you'll nod off into neverland dreaming of the "Good Ole' Days". So drink up Bloggers and dream on 'bout bringin' those day's back to America. The next morning at 5:43 AM you'll be thinking, "Thank God I don't have a job to go to. Where's my mouse?" If you're just not feeling nutty enough, tip a bottle of Borderline Blogger Nut-Brown Ale for a peek at the nutty side of life.
(Von Mises Brewery, recommends responsible blogging and drinking, and disclaims all responsiblity for damage resulting from the reckless behavior that often results from consuming our products.)

Wendy Williams
A new episode of "Real Housewives of Orange County" debuted last night and generated some juicy conversation on Bravo's late-night show "Watch What Happens: Live." This always-fun, often-noisy show is hosted by Bravo programming executive Andy Cohen, who welcomes guests from some of the cable network's most popular series, as well as other entertainment stars, to chat about pop culture and celebrities in the news.
Wendy Williams host of "The Wendy Williams Show"—and a big "Real Housewives" fan—was last night's guest. The conversation quickly turned from housewives drama to hair.
Outspoken Wendy is known equally for her famous phrase "How YOU doin'?" and her elaborate collection of wigs. On last night's show, viewers wrote in to ask Wendy about her hair, including us. We tweeted about it—"@BravoAndy Question for Wendy: You said you're a hair lady, but why don't you go natural? You are so beautiful—embrace your natural kinks".
However, we were not the only ones wanting to talk about her hair—two other viewers wrote in to discuss her hair, and our Tweet was not selected. Of the two that were selected, the first asked Wendy if she will reveal her natural hair one day like Oprah and Tyra have done. Wendy replied that she does not want to do so because her textured hair is very thin. She is not confident with her thin hair and therefore doesn't want to show it. She said that her hair has thinned with age and because of her thyroid disease.
Sounds to us like she might not know how to do her hair or what products are right. But we can help with that! NaturallyCurly.com would love to get Wendy to go natural. We have the tools, tips and tricks that can help her love her natural hair.
Incidentally, later the conversation turned to Oprah, like so many conversations do! Wendy complimented her and said she has great hair and that she wishes she has thick full hair like that. Last hair topic was about our favorite ginger, Shaun White.

Metoprolol Overdose
When a person takes excessive amounts of metoprolol, overdose symptoms may occur, including extremely low blood pressure, tiredness, or severe decrease in heart rate. If the overdose was recent, healthcare professionals may administer certain medicines or "pump the stomach." Once the drug is absorbed in the system, however, treatment generally consists of managing symptoms that occur as a result of the overdose.
Metoprolol (available as Lopressor® and Toprol-XL®) is a prescription medication used for lowering high blood pressure (hypertension), relieving angina symptoms, and improving chances of survival after a heart attack. The drug may also be used "off-label" for other conditions, such as migraines or anxiety. Just like with other medicines, it is possible to take too much metoprolol. The effects of an overdose will vary, depending on a number of factors, including how much metoprolol was taken and whether it was taken with any other medicines, alcohol, and/or drugs.
If you happen to overdose on metoprolol, seek immediate medical attention.
When someone overdoses on metoprolol, the symptoms can vary. Some examples of overdose symptoms include but are not limited to:
- Tiredness
- Decrease in breathing
- Wheezing
- Extremely low blood pressure
- Severe decrease in heart rate (bradycardia)
- Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
- Abnormal heart rhythms
- Congestive heart failure
- Loss of life.
The treatment for an overdose will vary. If the metoprolol overdose was recent, the healthcare provider may give certain medicines or place a tube into the stomach to "pump the stomach." The healthcare provider may also recommend dialysis, which can remove the medication from the blood. Treatment will also involve supportive care, which consists of treating the symptoms that occur as a result of the overdose. For example, supportive treatment options may include:
- Fluids through an intravenous line (IV)
- Medications to increase blood pressure or heart rate
- Medications to improve breathing
- Medicines or placement of a pacemaker for abnormal heart rhythms
- Close monitoring of the heart and lungs.

Step 4 to Financial Freedom
Clear Your Bad Debts
The fourth step to financial freedom is clearing your bad debts as quickly as possible. Before going into more detail on this it is imperative to understand that there is a fundamental difference between 'Good Debt' and 'Bad Debt'
Good Debt – makes you money
Some debt is actually considered to be an investment. I know, you are probably wondering how on earth anything as bad as debt could be considered an investment, but think about this for a moment. If you took on the debt to purchase something that will increase in value and will contribute to your overall financial wellbeing, would you not consider this to be a good debt?
Let's have a look at a few examples to help clear this up.
1. Buying a house to rent out. The tenants pay the rent that covers the mortgage costs. Houses nearly always go up in value over the long term. The mortgage loan you take out to pay for the house is an investment.
2. Taking out a loan to help get a business idea / venture off the ground. If adequate due diligence has been done and you have done your market research and you know that there is a real opportunity for your business to succeed, this is a good idea. By taking the loan, you can start your profitable business.
If good debts make you money, how much good debt would you like to be in? Me personally, I would want to be in millions of dollars of good debt.
Bad Debt – costs you money
Conversely to good debt, there is also bad debt, debt that costs you money every month. When you use debt to finance things that are consumed and will never appreciate in value, it is considered bad debt. This is the kind of debt that creates an unhealthy financial situation.
There are many, many examples of Bad debt and I am sure you will recognise all of them and even think of a few more yourself, but here is just a sample list.
1. Credit card debt – where credit cards are used to purchase everyday items like clothes or food.
2. Loan for a new car – cars nearly always depreciate
3. Loan for new sofas, or wardrobes, or washing machine
4. Loan for a holiday abroad
5. Load for a wedding
Clear your Bad Debts
First and foremost, if you have enough bad debts that it seems unmanageable, you probably need help. Speak to a financial advisor as soon as you can and come up with a plan to pay off your debts as soon as you can, preferably within 2 – 5 years. Once you have come up with this plan, be disciplined enough to stick to it, don't stray from it or you will never get yourself out of the whole you find yourself in now. Set aside money each and every month to clear your bad debts. You will never have financial freedom if you continue to fork out on high interest rates every month.
As you begin to settle your debts, don't just spend the money that you were paying out or you will just find yourself in the same situation in time to come. Save this money. Save it for investment purposes as mentioned in Step 2 and have your money begin working for you.

I bought this cutting board TOTE from Hancock Fabrics and absolutely love the convenience and safety of carrying my cutting board to my sewing circle. My only wish was a need for more pockets.
So, I thought I would be clever and make "pages". On one side of each page, I could add the needed pockets, custom sizing them to fit my collection of rulers with the safety of padding on the other side..
I purchased 1 yd chocolate quilted fabric, 1 yd of clear medium weight plastic, and 1/4 yd cotton fabric resembling the cover. With the cotton, I made binding strips and then I measured the depth and width for the pockets I needed and marked them on the plastic.
I had never sewn on plastic before, and found the see-through appearance and the glare very difficult. I needed the largest stitches, so the plastic wouldn't be too tightly perforated and rip. Sewing progressed slowly as I put the binding on each clear strip.
Finally, I was able to sew the plastic strips to the chocolate quilted fabric following the markings to make the needed pockets.
The difficult task came when it was time to attach the pages to the zippered cover. I centered them within the zippered part, connecting the bottom of each page with one straight seam to the base of the carrier.
Now there are custom-made pockets where all my shaped rulers are nicely stored away with my cutting board and a padded ironing space!
Wherever I tote my zippered carrier, I have all my tools safely tucked away, ready to measure, cut, square, and iron any on-going quilting project.

Project Description
Caritas Australia
Caritas Branding
Caritas Australia is the Catholic agency for international aid and development. Their work around the world empowers people to help themselves, regardless of ethnicity, political beliefs, gender or religion. But when they came to Marlin they felt that this commitment meant they'd lost touch with how to talk about the organisation's own beliefs and principles.
Caritas Australia sought Marlin's help to reinforce their Catholic identity. They partnered with Marlin to refresh the Caritas Australia brand (visual and verbal communication style) to better reflect the charity's core beliefs, character and guiding principles.
Together we identified that we should tidy up the brand logo; establish a new, fresh graphic style; develop a consistent and authentic copy tone; and find a way to integrate Caritas Australia's core Catholic Social Teaching principles, which underpin the charity's work across
Caritas Australia would need to build its brand through a consistent look and feel. But Caritas' strong storytelling approach would need to be accommodated (in fact actively encouraged). The brand would need to work across communications, teaching materials and, of course, fundraising including Caritas' flagship annual campaign Project Compassion.
We didn't make the brand, we uncovered it through workshops, interviews and even focus groups. All of Caritas Australia's work around the world is based on Catholic Social Teaching, so we proposed that these principles would need to be revealed.
We created a brand book with a clear, identifiable, and consistent message that allows people to recognise shared values, connect with, and be inspired by Caritas Australia. Copy, design and photography guidelines were carefully constructed to emphasise human dignity, promote shared values, and focus on people's strengths and courage instead of their needs – the tone of voice always respectful, the photography always optimistic and inspiring.
Caritas Australia works to empower vulnerable people over the world. We wanted to empower beneficiaries in Caritas Australia's communications too. The Caritas Australia brand is all about creating a deep connection between supporters and beneficiaries, and it consistently communicates a clear message: it's not "us and them", it's "we". It's a message that promotes Caritas Australia's belief that we are all members of one human family, who should come together in times of need.

This is a missing moment from chapter 3 of Twilight. A one-shot fiction that akes place during Bella's ride in the ambulance to the hospital after almost being crushed by Tyler's van as part of my new series...
*An Introduction to Fluff: Twilight*
Bella is fuming on a stretcher while Edward gets to ride shotgun! How unfair! Indignation and humiliation ensue...
This is fluff story number 3 in this series of flufftastic missing moments.
A prequel one-shot. Before Aengus, before My Love Shall Ever Live Young, Bella grew up with out Edward in her life. He has some very strong opinions on the choices she made as a young adult.
The Cullen Bunch
Here's the story of a long dead lady,
Who was bringing up three very lonely girls.
All of them had eyes of gold, like their mother,
None of them have curls
Here's the story, of a man named Cullen,
Trying to manage three boys on his own
They were four men, living all together,
So tired of being alone
Then one day the lady met this fellow
And she knew that he wouldn't be her lunch
So this group somehow became a family
That's the way we all became the Cullen Bunch.
The Cullen Bunch, The Cullen Bunch.
That's the way we became the Cullen Bunch.
Charlie's waiting for the other shoe to drop. Implied E/B and J/B.
a new take on Eclipse.
That's all I can really say without completely spoiling it.
rated R for intensity and violence.
This story takes place three years after Edward left Bella in the woods in New Moon.
Bella befriended Jacob after Edward left, but had to leave Forks, not long after, due to a horrific event.
Now, three years later, Bella is a new person. She's been through a lot, but she still thinks about her old love and the family she lost.
Edward misses Bella desperately but can't bring himself to get back into her life. Will what Alice sees, change that? If it does, will Edward be able to come to terms with Bella's past and what she now has with her?
Rated R, solely for violence.
Bella always compares Edward to an angel. What happens if he and the Cullens are? Well half angels anyway..
Sounds bad, but I really like this idea so far. Created after listening to "Peculiar People" by Mute Math too many times.
PG-13 for swearing.
A fluffy, one-shot featuring our favorite vampire family. Post Breaking Dawn. Possible Spoilers. ExB
The day Bella and Edward tell everyone at school they're getting married from Edward's POV. Will Edward like what Jessica, Mike, Angela and others are thinking?
In one of the most beautiful squares of Rome is where Edward and Bella meet. They've found each other and by all rights, they should live happily then on. But it's not always that easy. When Edward is changed into a vampire, will love really surpass all?
This is a missing moment from chapter 1 of Twilight. A one-shot fiction from Bella's first day of school as part of my new series...
Bella finds herself on a whirlwind adventure to the strange and secretive girl's lavatory where she hears some rather shocking gossip.
This is fluff story numero uno in this series of flufftastic missing moments.
Jasper Hale has been telling people that Bella's his girlfriend for years. What happens when she moves to Forks? Rated for seriously naughty stuff, so please be warned!
((Big thanks to nastey for the banner!))
A sweet moment between Bella and Edward based off the song "Love Story" by Taylor Swift. Pure fluff oneshot!
"Undead, but still living. That was exactly how I felt. But how else is one supposed to feel, when true love leaves you?"
How do you go on, when the life you always knew suddenly disappears?
A one-shot about relationships and the beginning of something new.
A visit to Jacob.
This visit is completely fiction. It had never happened. Yes, I know that Bella never talks about Edward, but this is my version.
Everything in Twilight and New Moon happened... only difference is, Bella is deaf. This takes place during Eclipse and goes on from there. All Edward's Point-Of-View!
One of the missing sex scenes in BD, that I am doing a series of. Includes the wedding night and the first time after that so far.

Delaware and Southeastern PA New Construction Home Costs After the Closing
As a buyer in Delaware or Southeastern Pennsylvania, it is essential to consider all costs association with your new home. Everything from maintenance to renovation, repairs and closing costs should be factored in to ensure that you do not have any surprises or worries down the road. But if you're purchasing a new construction home in the Greater Wilmington area, it's also important to be aware of the costs you'll have after the closing.
Below are four costs you will have after the purchase of your new construction home in Greater Wilmington, Chester County or Delaware County PA:
Yes, all homeowners will have utilities to factor into their budget, but if you're moving up to a larger home, you will need to research how much more yours will cost. If you're relocating to Delaware or Pennsylvania, you may also have a deposit or set-up fee for installing new services like cable or bringing in new equipment that may have already been in place in an existing home.
Window Coverings
Remember that when you purchase a new construction home, you are the first owner! There are no window coverings to work into your offer. You will want to take measurements of the windows and note how many when adding up your costs. Plus, it's key to start early as lead time for receiving new window coverings could take longer than expected, leaving you with no privacy upon move-in!
With some builders, you will be able to work an appliance package into the overall purchase price of the property. However, that is not always the case! After you've inquired with the builder about what is and is not included in the price, it's time to sit down and decide all of the appliances you will need and how much they will run you. You will want these in place on your move-in date!
You've probably been dreaming about the interior of your new Delaware or Southeastern PA home and as a result, the exterior has not even crossed your mind. Landscaping outside of your new construction home may look pristine, but is the backyard on the same level? Make sure you know if the landscaping will be finished by the builder or if that is an additional cost for you. What's more, if you will live in a homeowners' association, note if there is a timeline to have landscaping completed.
Does a new construction home feel like the best fit for you this year? Give the Kat Geralis Home Team a call today for more information about available properties or how you can get started on your home buying journey!

Pav Bhaji is an integral part of the Indian Street food and is probably the most ordered dish at a fast food restaurant; well, at least in Mumbai. 🙂 My last recipe was for the Pav; now, here comes its partner: the bhaji. 😀
Potatoes: 2 Cups, boiled
Tomatoes: 2-3 finely chopped
Capsicum: 1 cup chopped
Onions: 3/4 cup
boiled peas: 1/2 cup
Turmeric/ Haldi: 1 Tsp
Red chili powder: 1/2 Tsp or more if you like it hot
Red chili paste: 2 Tbsp (I soaked the chilies for 30 minutes and made a fine paste of it)
Pav bhaji masala: 1-2 Tsp
Garam masala: 1 Tsp
Dhani powder/ Coriander powder: 1 Tsp
Fresh Coriander: 2 tsp finely chopped
Jeera (Cumin seeds): 1-2 tsps
Salt to taste
Pav to complete the dish
- Add Jeera to the heated oil in the kadhai. Add all masalas and capsicum and onions.
2. Add the red chili paste and stir on medium to high flame. Cover the lid of the pan.
3. Wish a potato-masher, mash all the veggies. Add peas and mash them, too.
4. Finally add potatoes and coriander powder and keep mashing so that everything gets well-incorporated.
5. Cover the lid and cook for about 5-10 minutes, till it comes to a boil. Add water per the desired consistency. (Do not add too much, though)
6. Serve it hot with Pav!
I haven't added cauliflower and beet root to this. You may add if you like.
7. Slit the pav as shown and roast them on a pan in butter.
8. My pav bhaji is ready and so am I to gorge on it. 🙂 You can add some grated cheese to it to make it cheese pav bhaji.

Learn about the Tudor monarchs in these stellar screen adaptations…
There are no shortage of movies and television series depicting the lives of the Tudor monarchs, but finding an enjoyable one will usually come at the cost of historical accuracy.
Whilst it's hard to recommend the following films on the basis of their adherence to the recorded truth, they work best as dramatic introductions to the ruling monarchs of the Tudor family. As with most period dramas, some viewer discretion is advised.
The 15th and 16th centuries were violent times; War was raged frequently, matters of the bedroom were often a matter of public concern and violent uprisings were not uncommon – these films often touch upon these matters and, as such, might not be suitable for younger viewers.
With that being said, movies are often a great way to get young people into the History of Britain's monarchs – make sure to check out the film on Kids in Mind so that you're fully aware of what you might be getting yourself and your kids into!
Henry VII
Although his ascension to the throne is arguably one of the most thrilling stories in English history, there are very few films or television series actively focusing on Henry VII as a main character. Perhaps it is because one of the greatest English writers essentially covered the rise of the House of Tudor in his landmark play Richard III. Richard Loncraine's 1995 adaptation of Shakespeare's play, starring Ian McKellen in the title role, is set in an alternate fascistic 1930s Britain and stars Dominic West as Henry Tudor.
Henry VIII
For a truly exhaustive (and entirely explicit) look at the life of Henry VIII you need look no further than Showtime's The Tudors. Those with less time on their hands, or who would prefer to watch with younger viewers, can look up the classic Henry VIII and His Six Wives. At just over 2 hours, this 1972 movie quickly runs through Henry's fascinating marital history, whilst also introducing viewers to some other important players of the time.
Edward VI
Mary I
Despite a surprisingly favourable portrayal in the aforementioned The Tudors, Mary is often depicted as being somewhat cold or unforgiving, usually because of the hard line approach that she took to enforcing Catholicism upon the country – as a reaction to the previous six years of Protestant rule under Edward VI.
1936's Mary of Scotland starring Katherine Hepburn, directed by John Ford, takes liberties with history and depicts the monarch as somewhat sulky, whereas 2013's Mary Queen of Scots might be a little dry for young viewers, yet provides a lot more detail for avid historians.
As an iconic leader and one of the originators of a common English culture, there are numerous depictions of Elizabeth I in pop-culture. Her long reign makes for exciting viewing, from her dramatic ascension to the battles with Spain and several attempts on her life. Although compulsory viewing for any lover of Elizabeth I will be Judi Dench's award-winning performance in Shakespeare in Love; Cate Blanchett's eponymous roles in Elizabeth and Elizabeth: The Golden Age are definitive viewing for anyone who wants to learn more about her.

With sales of the PS3 on the rebound, Sony are starting to get a little of their old swagger back.
Speaking with GI.biz, Sony Computer Entertainment boss Andrew House has taken a couple of shots not at his company's arch-rival, the Xbox 360, but at the Wii, a console he says is experiencing quite the "downturn".
"I think at a time when we're seeing one of the major competitors somewhat losing a sense of momentum - at least in many of the markets I've looked at - it's gratifying to see a platform that's always had a very significant share of sales go to third party publishers capture that momentum again", he says.
"The knock-on effect can only be a positive one if publishers are making up 75 per cent of the sales on a particular platform, as opposed to a much smaller share elsewhere, then that's the platform I think it's in their interests to see succeed - and I think that's the dynamic we're seeing return right now."
Asked to clarify exactly which "competitor" he was talking about, House elaborates. "From data that we're starting to see, in some of the publicly-released figures, we're seeing a significant year-on-year downturn for the Wii. I think that's just a factor of this Holiday season."
Hey, it's been a rough few years for Sony. Let him have his fun.

Unlock the Power of Liposomal Organic Turmeric Extract
"Data shows that Liposomal Delivery is up to 20 times more Bio-Available
than Conventional Methods" (1)
Why Turmeric Is One of the Most Powerful Foods on the Planet
Turmeric is a plant that has a very long history of medicinal use, dating back nearly 4000 years. (2) Modern medicine has begun to recognize turmerics importance, as indicated by the over 3000 publications dealing with turmeric that have come out within the last 25 years. (3)
The Proven Benefits of Turmeric Include:
Helps Protect Brain Cells
Turmeric binds to and dissolves abnormal proteins in the brain, helping to protect them from damage. It reduces one of the main factors of memory loss… Brain plaque. (4)
Helps Maintain a Healthy Inflammatory Response
Studies confirm Turmeric is a powerful antioxidant. Antioxidants can fight free radicals and may reduce or even help prevent some of the damage they cause. Turmeric lowers the levels of two enzymes in the body that cause inflammation. (5)
Aids in the Support of Healthy Cardiovascular Function
It may support your heart by saving it from the damaging effects of chronic inflammation. (6) Because it stops platelets from clumping together, turmeric may also prevent blood clots from building up along the walls of arteries. (7)
Helps You Maintain a Positive Attitude
Studies have shown noticeable and promising results with turmeric for supporting a balanced mood. (8) Amazing things happens when you clear out all the "gunk" in your head.
Promotes Radiant Skin
Research shows that turmeric inhibits a key enzyme (elastase) that reduces the ability of elastin from forming. (9) Elastin, along with collagen, is a protein needed for making the skin smooth and pliable, and also helps it to retain its original position when pinched.
Enhances Detoxification
Turmeric stimulates your liver enhancing its ability to detoxify your body from toxins, metals, heavy metals and other toxins clogging up your system. (10)
Our formula is Prop 65 compliant for no heavy metals… GMP certified and 3rd party GMP certified.
The Nutrient Delivery System That Protects and Delivers Turmeric to Cells Throughout the body.
(Avoid the Dreaded "Expensive Pee" Syndrome)
Most turmeric supplements are poorly absorbed by your body and you may be "peeing" them out with NO benefit. That's why we've talked with the most brilliant minds in science today and discovered something called "liposomes".
Liposomes are little protection systems designed to protect and deliver nutrients straight into the bloodstream. Liposomes were first discovered in breast milk to enhance delivery of key nutrients to babies.
They act as microscopic bodyguards, grabbing hold of and protecting nutrients (in this case, turmeric) as they travel through your digestive system, through your bloodstream and deliver it straight into your cells… unharmed.
Enzymes in the mouth and stomach, digestive juices, bile salts (to neutralize the digestive acids), and various flora in the intestines can break-down and degrade the supplement.
Liposomal technology protects the nutrient from being destroyed in your stomach and delivers the nutrient directly to your cells. In fact, "Data shows that Liposomal Delivery is up to 20 times more Bio-Available than Conventional Methods" (11)
We Access the Powerful Nutrients Locked Inside by Utilizing a Unique Extraction Process
In its pure, raw form Turmeric is a powerful root that's been used in Asia for thousands of years, but it does have one flaw. In its raw state, it's not absorbed into your body and you gain almost no benefit.
To overcome this, we developed a formula that is a genuine liquid liposomal product. Our formulation is also GMO-Free… Gluten-Free… Heavy metals free… prop 65 compliant for heavy metals… GMP certified and 3rd party GMP certified. Plus…
We accessed the powerful nutrients locked inside by utilizing an organic glycerin extraction process.
Using this process the desired healthy parts of fresh organic turmeric root dissolve when suspended in this organic glycerin solution. This process removes the byproducts you don't want from the root and leaves all the good nutrients behind in a super concentrated form better known as, full-spectrum turmeric extract.
Glycerin is a safe and effective extracting agent for producing the highest quality Turmeric available.
- Our manufacturing process puts our product through a series of tests to ensure our liposomes are the exact size, structure and integrity needed to perform properly.
- We use a unique liposome manufacturing process. Our liposomes are produced at room temperature using only room pressure. This enables us to keep the integrity of the liposomes intact. (High heat and pressure destroys the liposome and decreases effectiveness)…
- Free flowing true liquid liposomes… not emulsions with gel or paste consistency.
A Full-Spectrum Turmeric So You Get more of the Benefits Turmeric Has to Offer…
Right now you can only get two kinds of turmeric supplements:
- Full-spectrum turmeric
- Isolated curcumin
To put it simply, isolated curcumin, the type of turmeric MOST supplements are using these days is not effective as it's an isolated compound and poorly absorbed by the body in that isolated form. (12)
That's because for turmeric to work properly, it needs the FULL range of compounds that make up the element.
Recent research has been so centered around curcumin that very little time has been spent examining the other 199+ compounds in turmeric. Many health secrets lie buried in turmeric's full spectrum chemistry.
PuraTHRIVE™ sources only Organic Full-Spectrum Turmeric to give you the most potent turmeric supplement you can buy in a liquid form.
We Also Added The "Key" For Ultimate Nutrient Absorption…
Fulvic acid contains over 77 macro and trace minerals, naturally occurring in their ionic form giving them ultimate absorption capability.
- Fulvic Acid as part of a well balanced diet may support to your cells to efficiently absorb super-foods, vitamins, and herbs. (13)
- Fulvic Acid may aid in detoxification, which may lead to increased energy, mental clarity, and sense of well-being. (14)
- Fulvic Acid may help water to enter your cells at a faster pace balancing hydration and mineral levels. (15)
- Fulvic acid may Support brain health starting at the cell level by creating a barrier for cognitive impairments. (16)
- Fulvic Acid may promote balanced hydration and allows the body to pass unwanted toxic substances. (17)
Here's what Global Healing Center founder, Dr. Edward Group, had to say:
"Fulvic acid is beneficial in part because as plants and other living things absorb high levels of fulvic acid, their biochemical reactions are sped up and become more efficient. Enzyme activity increases and cell membranes become more permeable. Water is able to enter cells at an above-normal rate. This is beneficial for both plants and animals by promoting balanced hydration and allowing the body to pass unwanted toxic substances."
Dr. Group continues:
"Ingestion of fulvic acid is known to increase the ability of a cell to release toxic metals. Australia's Ecotoxicology Program found that when fish swam in water with fulvic acid, their aluminum toxicity levels were up to six times lower than otherwise."

I was really surprised at how excited he was about the product. I take this product every day and really really like it. I plan on taking this product everyday. - Jamie Trinkkeller*
I've been taking turmeric for awhile now and have tried many different products. By far this is the best turmeric curcumin product that I've ever bought. It's simply amazing. I showed this to my wife, who's a nurse and she was completely blown away by the quality. Capsules sometimes caused me stomach upset, but I have NOT experienced any stomach upset since I've started taking this product. - D Bass*
I use turmeric extensively. I take turmeric pills, cook with turmeric root and make golden milk daily. I have never tried turmeric extract before so did not know what to expect. WOW! was I surprised by how amazing this liquid extract is. I'm amazed that I can now take turmeric in liquid form like this. It even tasted pleasant. - Thanh Nguyen*

Transcendental meditation (TM) can produce a unique state of restful alertness, according to a new study conducted on college students at American University. The transcendental meditation technique activates the natural default mode "ground state" of the brain, producing significant brain wave differences and a greater alpha coherence between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, suggesting the brain is working as a whole. Different meditation techniques entail various degrees of cognitive control, including the TM technique. TM can also enhance an individual's sense of self. A consistent practice of transcendental meditation promotes longevity and may be beneficial for various diseases and ailments such as cardiovascular disease, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, headaches, arthritis, and asthma. Transcendental meditation can be used for: • Stress. • Pain. • Anxiety. • Insomnia. • Overall wellness. Health benefits of TM include: Improved concentration, circulation, increased energy, lowered blood pressure, and slower respiratory rate.

Stress can contribute to the development of numerous chronic diseases, including depression, anxiety, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease, and aging disorders. Women and men's brains handle stress differently; altering the way each gender may experience these diseases, according to new research from Brigham and Women's Hospital. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, researchers looked at the brain activity of healthy men and women while they viewed stressful images. Women underwent the scanning twice, once during the beginning of the menstrual cycle and once during ovulation, and their results were then compared to the men's results. Brain activity in response to stress was similar in men and women at the beginning of the women's menstrual cycle. However, the response to stress was much higher in men than women during ovulation. "We found that women have a natural hormonal capacity to regulate the stress response in the brain that differs from men," says lead study author Jill Goldstein, PhD. "Diseases that are affected by stress often present differently in men and women," says Goldstein. "Understanding gender differences in stress regulation can provide clues to understanding the nature of these chronic health disorders and can provide the basis for sex-specific treatments for these diseases." Stress symptoms may include: • Concentration difficulties. • Moodiness. • Irritability. • Generalized aches and pains. • Fatigue.

Results from the 13th annual consumer survey conducted by the American Massage Therapy Association indicate that an increasing number of Americans are seeking massage for medical and health reasons, with relaxation and stress reduction as the top reasons people get massages. A vast majority of Americans, 86 percent, agree that massage can be effective in reducing pain, and 85 percent agree that massage can be beneficial for health and wellness. "Even with the ongoing economic crisis, people are not willing to compromise their health," says Judy Stahl, AMTA president. "It's a clear signal of massage's value when those making less than $35,000 a year are the second most active income bracket getting massage therapy." Massage is effective for: • Fatigue. • Low back pain. • Knee osteoarthritis. • Boosting the body's immune system functioning. • Lowering blood pressure. • Reducing headache frequency. For the second year in a row, the survey results show that massage therapy use is fairly steady. Thirty-two percent of stressed out Americans are getting massages to relieve their stress and 57 percent of Americans say they feel more stressed this year than last year, particularly among females (61 percent) and those ages 18-24 (66 percent). "Consumers understand that massage therapy is essential to a healthy balance between stress and relaxation," said Stahl. "We are pleased to see that consumers are prioritizing massage to help them through these difficult times."

Hello readers. An apology first of all from yours truly for the huge gap since my last Content Creation Blog, which I am somewhat ashamed to say, was posted at the tail end of August¦ All I can say is that we have been very busy here at Teapot Creative with loads of new clients coming on-board, conferences, meetings, moving to a new office. The list could go on but I won't bore you anymore with excuses. In the meantime I hope you have found the time to sit back and enjoy reading my other blogs none of which mention Content Creation. A blessed relief for us all¦
At the end of my last blog in this series, I finished up by saying that content creation for websites comes in a multitude of forms. I know that this is stating the obvious and yes, I say this in each of my blogs but it is so important to keep reminding yourself. Content creation is not easy and this is why of course why I wanted to try and help our readers along with this. This is blog # 6 in our series and at present the end is a long way off¦ Muggins here has started and Muggins is going to have to finish no matter how many blogs that means writing!
Today's blog is quite niche, which means it might not apply to your site. Sorry about this but stick with me as you never know, you might find a way of implementing these tips in the future at some point.
So what is it going to be then? Well, this time we are going to look at adding into your blog section the transcripts of speeches, presentations and your own interpretations of other peoples presentations. If you are scratching your head then don't worry. I did say that it was quite niche.
OK, I've still got your attention. Excellent. Thanks for sticking with me. I suppose the first thing to do is to ask yourself a few questions. Do you ever give lectures, presentations or speeches on subjects that relate directly to your website? Second question – do you own the copyright of the material or can you get permission to publish it on your site? Finally, do you or members of your team attend conferences? If you answered yes to any of the above then this may be perfect for you.
Funnily enough the idea to write this blog came to me by accident. When I started the content creation series months ago all I had was a very rough list of ideas from which to start out. This one wasnt on the list.
The actual moment of inspiration for this blog happened whilst I was reading one of the many blogs that followed on from the Brighton SEO conference back in September. Having been a delegate along with my colleague Felix, I was keen to see what people had to say about the event speakers and delegates.
I would be fibbing if I didnt say that on the whole these bloggers took a much more thorough approach to their reporting than I did in my own blog which recounted our adventures both inside and outside of the Brighton Dome, the conference venue. I freely admit to not trying to compete with these much more in-depth blogs with my one justification being that I chose instead to write a blog that with luck might have tickled your funny bone a bit whilst promoting the bi-annual conference and the splendid town of Brighton.
It seemed that during the couple of weeks following on from the conference barely a day went by without someone tweeting a link to their website and blog section. Followers could then access copies of the presentation slides, a summarised version of their presentation in word form or the final option – carefully written notes and basic critique of other peoples presentations! This last one seemed to demonstrate excellent out of the box thinking.
So lets take a look at the options for creating content off the back of a speech or presentation or just a conference youve attended. I want you to discover that this isn't merely a content creation method available only for the companies or individuals who are giving the presentations or delivering the speeches. Nope. Anyone can get in on the act¦
Lets begin with the most accessible of the three methods writing up and reviewing other peoples presentations. A real life example of this hit my inbox recently. The Southampton based internet marketers Koozai posted a blog summary of day one of the London SearchLove 2012 conference shortly followed by a blog outlining the presentations that made up day two. One of their people had spent the day listening intently to the lectures and no doubt tapping away on a laptop or scribbling frantically. Teapot Ade was there in person whilst I was in mind but not in body.
The style of writing that these sort of blogs generally use is quite informal. In essence they are a summary using the words of the delegate sitting in the audience based on notes taken on the day and then padded out a bit.
If you can't get on the list as a speaker at an event then this approach can be a great way of building your companies reputation and increasing your blog readership numbers. You might not be the speaker but when it comes to the people reading your blog, you may as well be unless they have heard of the actual person who delivered the presentation.
It wont come as a huge surprise that the place to launch your blog on the world is through Twitter. Thanks to the #tag method you can fire off a conference presentation blog at the delegates and others who the chances are will be on Twitter and following it closely to catch just this sort of thing as well as all the gossip.
It is a race however. In the days of the great tea clippers returning from India to Britain, the first ships home would get the best price for their cargo and with this type of blog it is the first ones uploaded that get the most readers. Everyone is busy and normally people only have a limited amount of time to read blogs and other conference feedback. Plus once you have read one, are you seriously going to go and read another one on exactly the same subject?
The final thing I want to say about this approach is that it plays into the hands of people who have attended the conference and perhaps shall we say not concentrated as hard as they should have done on some of the presentations or just not taken notes. Thanks to your overview, they can happily rattle off an informed report to their boss explaining in depth how fascinating each of the presentations was even if they did nod off a bit in the afternoon. Ahem¦ If you do a good job of it then the chances are that you will recruit them as a subscribed blog follower and more than likely a Twitter follower too. A suitable reward for all your hard work.
And now we move onto written speeches. Of the three different ways of content creation we are talking about today this is undoubtedly the easiest in terms of time and effort. Put simply this is because the text has been written already so it is just a case of uploading it with a brief introduction added in for good measure to set the scene and close things up at the end although you dont even have to bother with this if you dont want to. It couldnt be easier. All you have to do is be asked to write and deliver a speech¦ arrhh. There is a catch¦
Whilst looking for an example of this approach, I found a speech given by none other than the President of the United States America, Barack Obama. He was addressing the UN General Assembly back in September this year and gave a pretty good speech as you would expect from the re-elected President. You might think that this is an extreme example but the very fact The Guardian have gone to the trouble of uploading the speech speaks volumes about the usefulness of this approach.
The hard work is done for you or to be precise has been done by whoever wrote the speech. In my experience this has always been me as I have yet to reach the dizzy heights of pre-written speeches like our friend Mr. Obama (Im not quite on first name terms with him). Another way of looking at this is that having toiled away for hours and hours writing a speech which is no easy feat, it is therefore just that you should have an easy ride when it comes to creating some new content for your site.
Presentations are slightly more tricky only because unlike their cousin the speech, the words are not there on a page ready to be copy & pasted into the blog but are more likely on cards consisting of lots of buzz words and other prompters. This will take a bit of work with the end result a series of slides with accompanying text.
It doesnt have to be overly lengthy but long enough so that it will make sense to the blog readers who didnt actually see the presentation live which could potentially be the majority of the blog readers. The reason why this is so important is that a stack of power point slides with nothing backing them up are fairly boring for your readers and for the Google search bots with orders to index the latest content.
If you are thinking this could be one for you then the trick is to make sure that your notes whilst you are writing the presentation are designed in such a way that you can convert them without too much trouble into a blog friendly version. If it is a little while since you last gave a presentation or perhaps you have never given one then it is worth remembering that a well-practiced presentation will be virtually committed to memory by the time you actually deliver it. This means that converting into text form for the blog wont be to hard. It pays to think positively when creating content.
At the back of my mind whenever I read a blog made up of a speech or presentation the thing that always springs to mind is one word. Authority. If someone has been asked to deliver a talk then they must know what they are talking about regardless of the subject or setting! Therefore, it should be worth reading their speech transcription or taking a look at the slides and accompanying text if it was a presentation.
The use of anyone of these three techniques is a great way to add variety to your blogs and capitalise on the hard work that went into writing that speech or preparing that presentation or making the most of that rather exorbitant conference seat fee by writing up your own guide. If you do a good job of it then you are very likely to pick up social media followers and blog readers. Content never comes easy but this is a great way of producing it. Why not have a go yourself.

New Renault Twingo Prices
Place your bets... how much is the new Renault Twingo?
Place your bets... how much is the new Renault Twingo? Do I hear £7,500? Is that £8,000, madam? No, this city car costs £10,350 in Dynamique form – the only non- Renaultsport version. Does that sound expensive? The Ford Ka, after all, starts at £8,725, and the Nissan Pixo and Hyundai i10 cost from £7,195 and £9,345 respectively. Mmm! Furthermore, the Renault Twingo's optional electronic stability programme increases the price by £425. Climate control costs a further £295, an electric sunroof is £650, and metallic paint sets motorists back another £460. These options increase the overall cost to £12,180.But who cares? I know at least one person who thinks the Twingo is 'the most perfect car in the world'. Why? Because she claims its 'cheeky' face has 'eyelids' over the headlights to emphasis a 'playful character' - and that is more important than price. She loves its side profile too, and is convinced it is a style statement. Either way, this urban plaything feels fairly spacious, has confident handling, and respectable performance. As such, the 1.2-litre 75bhp Renault Twingo reaches 62mph in 12.3 seconds and averages 55.4mpg. Not too bad. So, perhaps this run-around is expensive – but it is a capable fashion statement with a wallet-full of character. And I bet - at least for some people – that justifies any price. Mmm!
