Jennifer's Mexican-Italian Pizza
My family loves pizza, and I love periodically clearing out my fridge, especially when the end of the month—and hence, the end of our budget—draws near. This recipe arose quite by accidence. Or perhaps convenience would be a better way of putting it. One evening, wanting to avoid grocery shopping and avoid waste, I perused my fridge. I found a package of queso fresco and other of prosciutto, both purchased for a recipe I soon forgot about.
Contemplating how to use these two random ingredients, I wondered… what might they taste like on a pizza. And thus, the idea for Mexalian Pizza arose. I made my own pizza dough, and will include the recipe here, but you can buy yours. You can also use a premade crust.
Pizza dough:
1 ¼ cup warm water
2 tablespoons yeast
¼ cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
Extra flour for rolling and pounding
Pour the water in a large bowl and add the sugar, salt, oil, and yeast. Let sit until the yeast rises to a foam on top of the water. Then add the flour and work into a smooth, spongy mixture. If your hands begin to stick, cover them with flour and pat the outside of the dough with flour, working it in with your hands.
Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and allow it to sit for an hour then punch it down, kneading it a bit. Let the dough sit for another hour then form it into a ball, place it on a floured surface, and roll it out to your desired thickness and place it on a baking or pizza pan. (I often like to brush a bit of olive oil on the bottom of the crust to crisp it up while it cooks.) Keep in mind the dough will rise while cooking.
Pizza toppings:
¼ cup of spaghetti sauce (vary to taste.)
2 cups grated mozzarella
1 cup queso fresco
¼ Cup spinach
6 oz. prosciutto
½ a large onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
Cook your prosciutto until crisp/crunchy either by frying it in a sauce pan or by baking it in the oven. While this is cooking, sauté your onions, sliced thinly, in the olive oil, and, if you use frozen spinach, thaw this in the microwave. And drain excess moisture.

Hawaiian Family With Grass Hut
Found this old photo in some archives.
Found this old photo in some archives.
Visited Bishop Museum today and had to say hello to Hale Pili, Oct. 14, 2010.
On July 24, 2009, we got a preview of Hawaiian Hall, just weeks away from its grand opening on August 8. Here is a gallery of photos of the completed hale pili with stanchions and informational plaques in place.
[RFG_gallery id='9′]
By Blaine Fergerstrom / Ka Wai Ola
The ancient hale pili, originally purchased in dilapidated form on Kaua'i in the early 20th century, then reconstructed in Hawaiian Hall, remained unchanged for nearly a century. Approximately four years ago, the hale was dismantled and its parts and construction documented.
Its original three-foot-high cement foundation was demolished and a new pohaku foundation, only 12 inches high, was built several yards back from the original spot. The original posts, made of rare, endangered Hawaiian tree timbers, were carefully refurbished and returned to their original positions, as were many of the original o'a, or rafters. New, less-rare native tree branches were used to fill in the framework. All was tied together with braided 'uki'uki cordage, much of it handmade by Kumu Marzan.
Pili collected from far-flung locations was carefully dried and bundled by students of the Farrington High School Hawaiian Academy. The bundles were carefully lashed to the framework by Kumu Pomaika'i Crozier with the help of many.
Today's ceremonies were attended by many who labored on this project, including many of the Farrington academy students.
Bishop Museum Archivist DeSoto Brown said that what he liked most about the reconstructed hale pili is that it is "down at ground level, and you can get a real feel" for what it was really like for someone who might have lived in the original.
Brown also pointed out that in the reconstruction, the door was placed in the opposite direction from the previous installation. Plans for Hawaiian Hall call for an installation of "significant gods" in the center of the museum. Brown said that the hale pili was the home of a commoner and that it would not be appropriate for maka'ainana to emerge from their home to face the most powerful of his gods.
According to Brown, Hawaiian Hall is scheduled to open to the public in August, 2009.

The Hale Pili in Bishop Museum is finished, now awaiting its christening and introduction to the public.

On a trip last week to Kaua'i for the AOHCC convention, I took a side trip to Waimea and Koke'e. Between the canyon and Koke'e, I found ukiuki growing in large clumps, some of it by the side of the road!

Malia helps Pomaika'i affix pili to the finished framework of the hale today.
With the framework nearly completed on the historical hale pili in Hawaiian Hall at the Bishop Museum, students from Farrington High School's Hawaiian Academy worked to bind the dried pili into small sheafs while Kumu Pomaika'i Kaniaupi'o-Crozier and Alaka'i Malia Kniatt began affixing the sheafs to the frame.
Work is progressing on hale pili and Crozier says the public will get their first look at the completed work in July 2009. In the mean time, you, the reader, get a sneak preview!

KAILUA-KONA » The caretakers of Kamehameha the Great's personal residence in Kailua-Kona are seeking 500,000 ti leaves to restore the roof on one of the buildings, Hale Mana.
Ahuena Heiau, a National Historic Landmark, was the center of political power in the Hawaiian Kingdom during Kamehameha's day. Kamehameha consulted with his priests and highest advisers there. The king died on the grounds in 1819.

Skogar Museum
Skógar MuseumIceland of the past.
In the heart of the southern part of Iceland, located next to the magnificent waterfall Skógafoss, is an interesting museum which was established in the year 1949. The museum has grown immensely through the years. There you can now see how the Icelanders lived in the past in small turf houses and learn the history of Icelandic inhabitants.
The museum is divided into a couple of parts filled with interesting items related to Iceland's history. There are tools and instruments used for fishing and farming, old handicrafts and papers, clothes and things related to superstition to name a few.
A few years ago the museum opened a new exhibition house, specialized in objects which tell the story of technology and transportation and its development in Iceland in the 19th and 20th century. Old tackles, car engines, motorcycles and road construction instruments are examples of the items on display.
If you want to get to know the Icelandic society and how the Icelandic people used to live and work, you should definitely make a stop at the museum at Skógar. It is an ideal place, surrounded by beautiful nature and many interesting sites and after you have strolled around you can get refreshment at the cafeteria and buy various items in the souvenir shop.

Overcoming The Content Marketing Glut: Progress ANZ MD
In this guest post, Craig Law, managing director and regional vice president, Progress ANZ (pictured above), addresses the content marketing glut through analytics-driven decision making.
The Australian economy is stagnating. Growth will be determined by a marketer's ability to take market share from competitors. In order to do that, they need to be offering the very best in personalised customer experiences.
We are witnessing a content glut, with marketing departments pushing out endless streams of content in a bid to win the customer's heart.
It's no wonder that, according to marketing analytics provider TrackMaven, content per-brand has increased 78 per cent, but engagement decreased 60 per cent in the same timeframe. So what's going awry?
The impact of personalised content on purchasing intent is clear. According to a MyBuys e-tailing group report, 46 per cent of customers would purchase more from retailers who deliver personalised experiences across multiple channels. Yet, the importance of implementing a content management system (CMS) is often underestimated; to engage, convert and retain customers across the entire customer lifecycle.
Building personalised pages
A CMS with personalisation capabilities will allow businesses to deliver different versions of content, page assets and website landing pages to different user segments.
For example, a visitor from Melbourne versus another part of Australia may see a personalised page having a content block with information about local events and contacts of showrooms in Melbourne.
A personalised engagement widget displays a call to action to download a whitepaper about the best laptops for note taking. A system such as this allows you to reflect the needs of the specific target segment.
Analytics to uncover your website's weaknesses
It's critical to choose a CMS system with a back-end analytics platform, giving insights into what content particular segments view, where they enter from and most importantly when they leave.
The reports will let you cut data by top performing title, top performing entry pages and top exit pages – the later can be particularly effective in finding the weak areas of a business's webpage, and where you are failing to convert.
Retarget those most likely to buy
Pulling the data captured by the analytics platform, a marketer is are now able to retarget customers most likely to buy. The result is reduced wastage at the pointy end of the sales funnel, sending specific and relevant content to prospects on the verge of making a decision.
Touching these customers across multiple channels is the key to success, via analytics you will be able to see if segments are accessing content from mobile or desktop and then tailor retargeting through the corresponding channel.
Research conducted by Econsultancy revealed that 78 per cent of companies say personalisation has a high impact on marketing ROI, but only 38 per cent of companies use that data. The opportunity is there for businesses to capitalise of the sea of data being generated by their content. It is just a matter of implementing the right technology.
Craig Law is managing director of Progress ANZ. Progress is a global leader in application development, empowering the digital transformation organizations need to create and sustain engaging user experiences in today's evolving marketplace.

We are back from our post deployment family vacation and we absolutely loved Branson!
It was our first time to visit and we had an amazing trip. Branson is a great destination for families and there is simply so much to do. We'll be sharing the highlights of our trip this week and hopefully helping you to plan your own family trip.
First up? The Amazing Pet Show at the Grand Country Resort.
The Amazing Pet Show is one of the shows at Grand Country and offered the choice between Saturday or Sunday shows on our vacation dates. Depending on the time of year one visits, show schedules vary. Since we arrived on a Saturday, we opted for the Sunday morning show, just a short walk from our room.
The show begins with host interacting with the children in the audience, telling jokes, etc, as a warm-up, and then the pets join in! From huskies unfurling the show's flag to poodles balancing on barrels and riding a bicycle, the animals love to entertain.
There's also dogs dancing in costumes from varying countries, trained parrots flying overhead, and house cats rolling barrels, doing jumps, and even crossing bridges. We were especially amazed that anyone could train cats to cooperate!
With the mix of audience interaction and the pets, it's a great show for even the youngest members of the family. We had several families with little ones sitting near us and the children were riveted by the animal antics.
The Amazing Pet Show lasts approximately an hour and a half, with a 15 minute intermission where one can purchase snacks, gifts, or a photo with one of the amazing pets.
For more information, visit the Grand Country website. As well, my readers can save $3 off each Amazing Pet Show tickets with this coupon, mention when booking.
Disclosure: This post was written as part of my relationship with USFamilyGuide. My family was provided with tickets for the Amazing Pet Show during our Branson vacation for the purposes of this post. Show action photos provided by Grand Country.

Genia Kostka and Jobst Fiedler investigate this pressing question in their recently published book.
Good planning early on and long-term governance thinking are at the heart of successful infrastructure projects, according to a new book by The Hertie School's Genia Kostka and Jobst Fiedler. The book, Large Infrastructure Projects in Germany, published by Palgrave MacMillan, is the culmination of research whose results were first released in 2015.
It examines why some large infrastructure projects are delayed or compromised and offers important insights into the better delivery of future projects. The study analyses the scale, patterns and causes of cost overruns in 170 large public infrastructure projects in Germany. Projects from the building, transportation, defence, energy and ICT sectors are analysed based on systematically planned versus real budgets. Three detailed case studies on the Berlin Airport BER, the Elb Philarmonic and Offshore Wind Parks round out the investigation. A working paper and the case studies were first released in 2015.

04/29 Daily Report on Activities, Legislation and Initiatives of the ALEC/Koch Cabal
By Bob Sloan
In order to keep readers with an interest in ALEC up to date on stories related to ALEC, we're posting this page with brief descriptions of ALEC activities and links to the articles or material(s).
Included this update are links to measures or articles published by ALEC (if available) , showing their take on issues. Simply click on the title and a link will take you to the full article(s).
A decision by the South Dakota legislature's Executive Board to possibly include paying for trips to American Legislative Exchange Council meetings has created some controversy. ALEC as it is known has advocated for major changes in public education and the role of government. Senator Dan Lederman of Dakota Dunes, a republican, has been a member of ALEC for some time.
Legislative 'circus' had its moments of dignity
"The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), a corporately financed orchestrator of legislators nationwide, provided the ventriloquy for yet another "smart-ALEC" puppet promoting the use of what would be public funds for private schooling. A contortionist managed to make a bill that limited access to justice for wrongfully discharged employees look like tort reform. After 85 days of cape-swirling and abra-cadabras about tax relief, the majority magician managed to pull two sorry little sparrows out of the hat, both tax breaks for the few at the expense of the many."
Art Pope Groups Push Extreme ALEC Tax Agenda in North Carolina
"When McCrory appointed Pope as his budget director in 2012, many progressives in the state feared sweeping tax cuts were on the way. The governor has been mostly silent, so far, but the three Pope-tied groups have each released their own highly regressive tax plans.
"The Civitas tax plan was written by Arthur Laffer, the author of the annual American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) tax publication "Rich States, Poor States." The two plans are like peas in a pod. Like the ALEC publication, the Civitas plan proposes austerity coupled with abolishing individual and corporate income taxes and replacing them with an increased state sales tax. A sales tax is regressive, since the less a person earns, the greater proportion of their income is eaten up by the tax. According to the North Carolina Justice Center, such a shift would mean a tax cut for the wealthiest 20 percent, while placing a greater financial burden on the bottom 60 percent. This would translate into a $500 tax increase for somebody earning $24,000, but a $41,000 decrease for a $1 million earner."
Did Johnson & Johnson succumb to 'race baiting'?
"A conservative policy expert recently attended Johnson & Johnson's annual shareholder meeting last week where he challenged the company for caving to left-wing extremists and deciding to stop working with mainstream conservative organizations.
"At Thursday's annual meeting of shareholders in New Brunswick, New Jersey, Justin Danhof, general counsel for The National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), criticized Johnson & Johnson CEO Alex Gorsky's decision to stop working with the American Legislative Exchange Council – a respected, 40-year-old national organization of supporting state legislators.
Audio: National expert on swift, certain sanctions: 'Rest of the country has its eyes on Washington state'
"Swift and Certain Sanctions"…another model bill from ALEC. This "Act" was adopted by the full ALEC membership on June 3 2010. Assoc. Professor Angela Hawken, PhD of Pepperdine's School of Public Policy has been touring the U.S. speaking alongside representatives of American Enterprise Institute (AEI) , a staunchly conservative think tank associated with the American Legislative Exchange Council and funded at least in part by the Koch family foundations in similar manner to the Americans For Prosperity organization. Hawken is an "expert" on topics other than swift and certain sanctions…often speaking on legalization of marijuana.
Many projects of Pepperdine's School of Public Policy are funded by the Charles G. Koch Foundation:
April 1, 2013, The School of Public Policy and the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation present an Economic Seminar on Wednesday, April 3, at 12 p.m. in LC 159, with a reception to follow. School of Public Policy students Catherine Bampoky (MPP candidate '13) and Aolong Liu (MPP candidate '13) will present their research paper titled "The Impact of Entrepreneurship on Economic Growth." In addition, students Ji Gu (MPP candidate '13) and Tonghui Zhu (MPP candidate '13) will present "Research and Development and Economic Growth in the United States." These projects are joint work with Dr. Luisa Blanco and Dr. James Prieger. Funding for these projects was provided by the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation.
Our Voice: State should not pay lawmakers' dues to ALEC
"South Dakota's Republican-controlled legislative Executive Board last week decided that each member of the Legislature should be a member of ALEC — the American Legislative Exchange Council.
"That's $10,500 of your money: $100 membership each for 105 South Dakota lawmakers' memberships to a partisan group that is not looking out for the people of South Dakota.
"Then, when lawmakers go out of state to ALEC conventions, South Dakota will foot the travel bill, too.

Steven L. from Providence, RI
Keith has been great! He has been tutoring my daughter once a week in AP Euro for the last few months. Keith is professional, has a passion for his work, taps into all types of resources, and has made history much more relevant and interesting to my daughter. His biggest strength has been his ability to connect with my daughter's learning style to bring out her strengths and improve her weaknesses. As a result my daughter now studies in a much more focused manner and with more interest and confidence.
Jamie H. from North Providence, RI
I was having an extremely difficult time passing the math content knowledge Praxis exam (5033). As an older student in a graduate program, I hadn't practiced this kind of math in 20+ years. I was pretty much starting from scratch, having to re-learn problem solving, algebraic thinking, geometry, etc... This was not easy for me; as there were many times I felt lost, and passing this test seemed out of the realm of my ability. When I first took the exam, my score was one of the lowest on record at my University. With Keith's help, not only did I pass, but I scored 20 points higher than the passing score!! I would not have done it without Keith! He is a great tutor; very patient, understanding, and extremely knowledgeable. What makes Keith stand out from other tutors though, is his ability to translate the "call of the question", and he is so skilled at providing strategies to help his students do the same! This made all the difference, and I finally passed thanks to him! He always made himself available, working around my crazy schedule; and even followed up with e-mails wanting to know how the test went. He is very encouraging, reassuring, and caring! I would recommend him to anyone! Thanks again, Keith!!
Julie K. from Barrington, RI
Keith was awesome in working with my son. While he is in a high level math class, he is able to accommodate all questions he has and make sure that he understands the material. Really recommend him to anyone!
RUTH . from Warren, RI
Keith is extremely patient and gives feedback on all lessons and when I need to get him by phone or email he is very accurate on time. I am happy to have him as my tutor and would recommend him to all my friends and family.
Anna S. from East Greenwich, RI
We've known Keith for the last couple years. He has been helping our sons, a high school senior and a sophomore with Pre-calculus and Algebra. Our experience with Keith has been excellent; he is knowledgeable, patient, organized, engaging and approachable. He is helping them with strategies and skills needed for math. I echo the feedback left by his students and parents in his profile and could add the same superlative adjectives; the bottom line is he as a tutor is at the top of my list. Keith's approach is friendly and courteous; he teaches step by step and acknowledges your understanding along the way. He is extremely easy to get a hold of, and always seems to make room on his schedule. I have tried a few different tutors on WyzAnt and other places, and he is by far the best. Keith continued to tutor my youngest son Calculus in his senior year and proved to be a big help. He is very patient, thorough and extremely knowledgeable. We could not be more pleased with Keith and his approach towards the tutoring process. We would highly recommend Keith for any tutoring/teaching positions. Bottom Line... If your child needs a math tutor, Keith without a doubt should be your choice. He truly has the qualifications and positive attitude to get your child on track for success.
Beth T. from Barrington, RI
I could tell that Keith was teaching our son in a way that helped him understand the material. He was also patient and kind. Great session! In three lessons, my son went from in the 50's to 60's on his quizzes to a 78 on his big quarterly assessment. His confidence is growing, and I finally feel like he's on top of the material. Keith is patient and teaches my son in a very multi-sensory way.
Theresa C. from Providence, RI
Keith was the right choice for a tutor. He tutored my daughter for several weeks and it was well worth it. Keith is on time, patient, funny, reasonably priced, and most important, knowledgeable about what he teaches. He helped my daughter with the ACT. Though her scores were decent, there was room for improvements. It's extremely helpful when you have a previous exam to see where help is needed but not necessary. Keith is attentive and helps you to understand where you went wrong, why a choice was a good decision, and what types of questions are tricky. After each lesson he wrote a review on what was learned and recalled the strategies and suggested a plan to put into practice. Keith had tons of strategies that actually worked! My daughter appreciated this as well as the way he was able to help her understand the problem. We typically would meet Keith in a nearby Cafe that was comfortable and relaxed for an hour to 1.5 hours. We were so fortunate to find Keith on WyzAnt. My daughter took the ACT and was very happy with the results. She scored a total of 4 points higher on her composite score than the previous test! For the breakdown of the composite, she received a 35 on English! (6 points higher), science was 5 points higher, reading was 1 point higher and in math, 2 points higher. We are so happy with Keith. There are so many tutors to choose from but Keith will always be go-to tutor if she needs help again.
Sandra C. from Providence, RI
Keith is a great tutor and very realistic in his approaches. He is patient and understanding. He explains the LSAT concepts very well and gives his students confidence and hope. I admire his tutoring skills and passion. I always get him on the phone when I need him and he is fast in replying to emails.
Jennifer S. from Swansea, MA
I wish we hired Keith earlier on in the year. My daughter has severe anxiety, so some quarters she does excellent and during others her As and Bs can slip to failing grades. In 5 weeks, Keith helped build her confidence. The teachers saw a remarkable difference. She was able to complete missing work and understand concepts in math and science. Keith was always prompt and met her at convenient times at our local library. In a matter of weeks, she turned her 49 average to an 84 and received a 120 on her next test in chemistry and received the highest grade in that class (A) on her final exam. He also gave her SAT tips as that test was coming up too. We will definitely us Keith's services again next year.
Nadia T. from Riverside, RI
Keith is one of the best tutors I have ever had. He gave me books to better understand the GRE and took the time to explain everything I didn't understand. He was also flexible with my schedule. Keith is a great tutor!! I would not be prepared for this test if it wasn't for Keith. I truly appreciate all his help.
Lifen B. from East Greenwich, RI
Keith is very knowledgeable, patient and nice. He gave us suggestions on test strategy and book selection. He also borrowed his book to my daughter for her to study. His teaching is very effective. He will find out the student's weak points and work on them. My daughter already saw improvement on her practice. I will follow up after her PSAT test. My daughter took her PSAT test this October and SAT test on December. The score came out really good. Her PSAT score was 223: Critical reading 73, Math 80 and Writing 70, which is 20 points more than last year's. Her SAT score is 2280: Critical reading 720, Math 800 and Writing 760. It is an amazing improvement for her. Keith's effective tutoring really helps. His strategy to use GRE and GMAT test problems to prepare for SAT also helps her to achieve this high score. We really want to say thank you to Keith for his tremendous help to my daughter.
Barbara B. from Barrington, RI
Keith is very helpful, knowledgeable and flexible regarding availability. Keith is everything one wants in a tutor for his/her High School Student! I highly recommend him.
David J. from Foster, RI
My daughter was struggling for more than a year in her attempts to pass the math Praxis test. She had worked with two previous tutors that were helpful, but it took Keith to pull it all together, figure out what she needed to do to succeed, and make sure she went into the test confident enough to pass. It worked. She crushed the test thanks to Keith and her hard work. I highly recommend Keith. Well worth the investment.
Tami C. from Portsmouth, RI
Keith tutored my daughter in math in preparation for the ASVAB. Throughout her sessions he was extremely patient and introduced teaching techniques that helped her retain the algebraic concepts that were previously difficult. As a result, she raised her ASVAB score by 25 points. Additionally, he provided my daughter with his own personal study material which made the concepts fun and easy to understand. Keith was able to get her thinking about problems from a different perspective and it increased her confidence with test taking. He is an excellent tutor!
Hazel B. from Warren, RI
When I took the SATs for the first time, I was somewhat disappointed in my score. I received a 1960, with a 590 in math, 660 in writing, and 710 in reading. I then contacted Keith, who came and worked with me once a week for eight weeks. Keith is extremely patient, kind, and easy going. I definitely struggle at math, but with his help, I soon began to understand the most difficult of problems. During each session, we not only did problem sets, but also reviewed the errors I was making and discussed how I could change my test taking processes. We also covered the verbal portion of the SAT, as Keith felt that while my scores were respectable, they had the potential to be much higher. I went into my second sat feeling extremely confident and left the test feeling the same way. I was excited to receive my scores and find that I had improved by 140 points to receive my goal score of 2100, with a break down of 620 in math, 730 in reading, and 750 in writing. I owe so much to Keith, whose easy going yet didactic manner helped me achieve my goal.
Korrie K. from Pawtucket, RI
Keith is an absolutely excellent and very knowledgeable tutor. I sought Keith's help because I was preparing to take the GMAT after getting low scores on the GMAT twice. After my first session all of the concepts I struggled with came together. His schedule was very flexible, he was easy to reach, patient and always well prepared. He took his time to make sure I understood every concept and thoroughly explained each one. Keith even provided the study materials I needed. Also at the end of each session Keith would e-mail me a very detailed study report and guide regarding everything we went over and what I should continue to practice which kept me on track. Keith even volunteered to read, organize and give me feedback regarding my personal statement which was done on his own time. Now that I will be starting Grad school in the Fall I feel very confident that all the concepts Keith taught me will be put to good use and easier to understand. Thanks Keith!!!!
Olabisi D. from Providence, RI
It was a pleasure to have been able to receive LSAT tutoring assistance from Keith B. I completed tutoring with Keith B. for about 2 1/2 months. He was very patient and helpful with providing new techniques for exploring the 3 areas of the LSAT that I needed to focus on. Additionally, Keith B. was flexible with his availability and was accommodating with my schedule. Keith B. was able to provide me with other resources to assist with my study techniques and was diligent with ensuring that I understood the material. I would highly recommend Keith B. as a tutor to others!
Nancy B. from Newport, RI
Keith did a great job with my son and he increased his score by 80 points on SSAT. Thank you!
Yongsong H. from Barrington, RI
I and my daughter cannot say enough thanks to Keith - he helped my daughter's SAT to go up 200 points and math up by 140 points (from 580 to 720) with a couple of month of weekly tutoring. Keith really cares about his student and explains things patiently. He writes a very detailed report of progress after every meeting. I will give him highest remarks for his tutoring ability.
Michael W. from Portsmouth, RI
Keith did a fantastic job! My daughter improved a lot as a result of his work with her. I would recommend him to anyone.
Patricia E. from Newport, RI
I feel lucky to be working with Keith to prepare for the GREs. I was mostly concerned about the math. I was never good at math and haven't been in a math class in more than thirty years. He's able to get the concepts across, motivate and encourage, and provides great strategies for moving through the questions at the most efficient pace. He also has provided helpful strategies for responding to the questions in the written section. Thanks, Keith!
Sean B. from Bristol, RI
Keith B. helped me tremendously with my GMAT preparation and graduate school admission. I would like to touch primarily on his excellent writing skills. I had to write a purpose statement for the admission to graduate school and with his help I was able to turn a very rough draft into a superb final copy. Without his help I would not have been able to do it. In addition to his expert grammar revisions he provided me with thorough content and sentence structure advise. I cannot thank Keith B. enough for what he has done for me and I would recommend him to anyone that needs tutoring.
Dennis B. from Bristol, RI
Keith has been tutoring our son in 8th grade math for approximately 10 weeks and the progress has been amazing! Our son has risen from a 66 grade on his last quarterly math test to a 92 on this quarterly test. His Math grade has risen from a 'D' to a 'B' in one quarter! We directly attribute the progress to Keith. Keith's command of the subject, patience and teaching style all combine to create a learning environment that facilitates our son's learning process. Additionally, Keith is extremely flexible if an appointment needs to be changed or if we request an additional tutoring session on short notice before a test. He took the initiative to reach out to our son's math teacher to coordinate their efforts. Keith is definitely an advocate for our son! I am so thankful to have found Keith on Wyzant as a resource for our son!
Kelly T. from Johnston, RI
Keith was a great tutor. He was always on time and willing to be flexible with meeting locations. Keith was very patient and professional and he was always willing to review anything my daughter did not understand. Math has always been her greatest challenge, but he patiently and consistently explained different ways of solving algebraic problems and questions. Her overall SAT score increased by 150 points after her tutoring sessions with Keith! I would highly recommend him for any tutoring needs!
Diane C. from Portsmouth, RI
Keith began tutoring our son 6 weeks prior to his taking the SAT, for Reading, Writing, and Math. Keith was always on time for each lesson, and immediately "dove in" when he arrived. He was always prepared and engaging with our son, and willing to answer any questions. Keith's knowledge of the strategies needed for approaching the SAT were impressive; not only did he help our son arrive at the correct answer, but he also helped him think through ways to approach each problem or question and explain the thought process for choosing the best answer. I was also impressed with the way Keith took the time to write up and submit a thorough, thoughtful summary of what and how our son did after each lesson. I feel certain that our son's above-average score was largely due to Keith's excellent coaching and care and attention to the details of how our son was performing on the practice assignments. It was clear that Keith enjoys teaching and knows how to relate well to students. I highly recommend Keith as a tutor.
Ginger C. from Barrington, RI
My son has worked with Keith to prepare for the AP Calculus AB exam. Keith came to every session extremely well prepared. I sent Keith specific topics that my son needed help with and Keith came with many problems for my son to solve. He loaned my son several books to help him prepare for the exam. He explained many strategies to help my son approach the problems that were giving him the most trouble. He is very patient and kind. He provides lots of positive feedback and a very reassuring attitude. My son specifically enjoys the discussion they have about the best way to approach a problem. My son has commented that Keith really knows the material and is able to explain it in a very easy to understand method. I appreciate the extremely through reviews that Keith sends me after each tutoring session.
Judy F. from Bradford, RI
Keith is very patient and takes his time to explain all applicable methods for doing math. My son is catching up on some very important lessons he missed in class.
Laura V. from Providence, RI
Keith is a great tutor and helped me raise my GMAT score by 50 points in just a month. Highly recommended! Keith is very knowledgable and is a great teacher. Thank you!
Allegra H. from Bristol, RI
I showed great improvement in all areas of the GRE, particularly in the Analytical Writing section, after meeting with Keith once a week for a little over a month. He was always on time for our sessions with pencils and scratch paper at the ready. He would also bring with him 2 or 3 GRE prep books which he allowed me to take home and use as extra study materials. Not only would he highlight and focus on my weak areas, but he would actively take the time to work through any problems I seemed to have and provide step by step explanations for how to answer them correctly and in a time efficient manner. Keith was very generous with his time, clearly knows what he's talking about and constantly went above and beyond to help me in any way that he could throughout the stressful and exhausting process of preparing for a standardized test. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone preparing for this type of test, whether it be to learn the material or just brush up on what you already know.
Christopher M. from Rehoboth, MA
Keith was incredibly helpful in explaining GMAT problems. We worked mostly on the quantitative and data sufficiency questions and after three lessons I was able to solve most of the math problems. The lessons were well worth the money that I spent for them.
Michael T. from Warren, RI
My experience with Keith B as a college board SAT tutor for my son has been excellent. I found Keith to be engaging and patient with his student. Keith spoke with my son on strategies for taking the test. He focused on the subject matter with attention to detail when explaining a particular question. Keith emphasized the need to work on lessons between visits. Keith was always on time and did his best to engage his student in serious conversations. I would recommend Keith to others seeking a tutor.
Richard S. from Providence, RI
Keith tutored my son for his ASVAB test. He scored a 32 on his initial pretest. After two sessions with Keith he took his official ASVAB test and scored a 61. Thanks for everything!!!!
Michael D. from Cranston, RI
I was in a time crunch to get a certain placement exam done and Keith had helped me tremendously! He was very patient, he kept track of what I had problems with, he explained various methods of solving each problem, and he corrected me on certain steps that I kept making errors on. Keith was kind enough to write reminders telling me what steps and order of operations to use, among many other algebra rules. This was very helpful because I could check them to recall myself before taking my exam. He is very encouraging and went out of his way to help me with long tutoring sessions that sometimes got late.
Brian C. from Bridgewater, MA
One word will describe Keith as a tutor AMAZING....... Keith is the best tutor,very organized and patient. Keith went above and beyond to make sure I was prepared for the asvab test. Keith I just wanted to thank you again for taking me from a 31 on my asvab pretest to a 55 in a few sessions. Thanks for you great tutoring....
Gail R. from Seekonk, MA
Keith tutored my daughter, who finished her final four months of her Senior year of high school at home. Not only was he organized and on time, but brought with him a wonderful way of making the subject matter fun! I was amazed how my daughter actually looked forward to the sessions and for the first time really grasped Math; something she had struggled with throughout all twelve years of school. She literally hated math, and with Keith's patience and whit, was able to enjoy it! English was a subject which she had a better understanding of, but needed someone to keep her moving forward so that she could graduate. Not only did Keith achieve that monumental task, but he did it in such a way that gave my daughter more confidence in her own academic abilities. He was always positive and patient and a highly recommended tutor-I feel strongly that there isn't a subject that he cannot teach!!! My only regret is that I wish we had met him years ago!!!! Absolutely a gifted teacher!!!!
Evan P. from San Diego, CA
Keith tutored me for 3 months before taking the GMAT, helping me to score a 730 and finish in the 96th percentile of all test takers. During this time, Keith demonstrated impressive knowledge of both Math and Verbal concepts and helped me to greatly improve upon my weak areas. Keith not only helped me to learn core competencies for this exam, but also provided helpful test-taking strategy advice. As the exam neared he also assisted me in refining my critical thinking skills in an effort to prepare for the Analytical Writing portion of the exam. Most importantly, aside from being an impressive teacher of the subject material, my tutoring experience was excellent because Keith was always on time (generally early!), always prepared, always flexible and ready to adjust to what I specifically wanted to accomplish with each tutoring session, and extremely patient in coaching me along. I strongly recommend this tutor to anyone looking for assistance in taking a standardized test, or looking to strengthen his/her understanding of a specific subject.
Meaghan H. from Warwick, RI
Keith was helpful with my GRE preparations. We focused on what I felt was my weakness, math, to develop some confidence. We went through Kaplan and ETS books to work on some problems and to familiarize myself with the test format. His patience was really appreciated during our two hour sessions of several math problems and techniques to figure out the answers. Keith's extensive knowledge in mathematics was useful in demonstrating each step in the process of getting to the answer. I would definitely recommend Keith to anyone who is taking a major broad test or a more specific math test.
Kathryn S. from Providence, RI
Keith was an excellent tutor!! He prepared me for the GMAT exam in less than 3 weeks and my grade went up a lot! He was easy to reach and had great flexibility. He had great tools to help me. He was always prepared for each session. He taught me many great strategies and practiced a ton of problems with me. He made the test so much easier to take and made the concepts so much easier to understand! I recommend him to anyone. He was a wonderful tutor and helped me so much!
Brittany T. from Charlestown, RI
Keith was able to give me a crash course to prepare me for my asvab testing. Within two weeks he was able to fill in the holes for me and strengthen my knowledge base. I went up to the test HOPING TO PASS! And I ended up blowing the test out of the water. Thanks again Keith!
Nicole L. from North Kingstown, RI
Keith has helped my daughter turn her grade around in honors pre-calculus. Not only has he helped her grasp the concepts, but has also given her confidence in her math abilities. He is very intelligent yet not intimidating. He usually asks her what she is working on before the session so he can plan ahead. He goes out of his way to provide additional supports such as library books. In addition, after completing a problem, he has her explain what she did and what she learned. This reinforces the concepts in a positive way.
Sarah D. from North Easton, MA
My GRE verbal score improved significantly after a few lessons with Keith. Also, he found some great materials to help me prepare for the test, and answered all of my questions about strategies for tackling the verbal questions.
Anon A. from Barrington, RI
I wasn't sure where to turn when my little one requested chess lessons. I don't play chess and he is really young. Keith was wonderful every step of the way, both teaching my son patiently and helping me assist my son in learning beyond the tutoring sessions. He recommended books and groups so he could continue to improve. I was truly impressed with the professionalism and thoughtfulness of this tutor. I think that gifted teachers combine intelligence with an ability to patiently explain and invest energy in their students beyond what is necessary. If each of us is lucky, we will encounter one such teacher and that person can be transformational. Keith is such a tutor. He is outstanding in every way. He is just wonderful and I was lucky to find him through WyzAnt.
Peter E. from Providence, RI
I write as a parent about Keith's talents and capacities. Our daughter had struggled during the early part of this academic year with Algebra 2. She is a bright and conscientious girl, but became overwhelmed by the extraordinarily fast pace of the classroom. None of her academic needs were being met. We called Keith and he responded immediately. He conducted an analysis of her core mathematical skills and determined that she had an enormous capacity and skill that was being frustrated. Keith determined an academic pace that was reasonable for her, reviewed her previous learning, addressed and helped to mediate her deficits, and placed her on a pathway to success. Our daughter's grades rose from a C- level to an A level shortly after the tutoring commenced. We have Keith to thank for that. Keith has all of the qualities that a parent wants and needs in an educator: He is kind, thoughtful, infinitely patient, courteous, thoughtful, well read, and a strong achiever himself. We recommend him highly and without reservation. Thank you Keith!
Emilio C. from Barrington, RI
Keith has been a great tutor for my son, who is taking a very challenging Honors Geometry class. He has gone to great lengths in requesting to have the material and any difficult problems ahead of time. He took the time and effort to procure the textbook my son was using from the library so he can follow what was being taught in class. He accurately has identified the thought process towards approaching problems that have been an obstacle for my son's understanding of the material. I recommend his service without any hesitation.
Lisa P. from Middletown, RI
My daughter recently met with Keith to prepare for her ACT exam. She said that their 2 hour sessions flew by and that Keith gave her many tools to solve the ACT problems. He boosted her confidence by providing her with positive feedback when she was right and well thought out strategies for her to use when the problems became more difficult. I know that her time with Keith exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend him to anyone preparing for their ACTs or SATs.
Mike B. from Providence, RI
Keith was instrumental in my GMAT prep. While we focused on quant, he also helped me with verbal, and my total score rose from a 620 to a 680. He was extremely knowledgeable and tailored his tutoring to the way I learned. If I take the test again, I will absolutely be seeking out Keith's services.
Beth M. from East Greenwich, RI
We hired Keith to help my daughter prepare for the SSAT. I have hired many tutors over the years and Keith was by FAR the best! He responds to communication very quickly and makes it very easy to schedule appointments. He is extremely knowledgable and has a wonderful way of teaching his students, not only content but also tips and tricks for testing. After each meeting he provided a very thorough summary of what they covered and reiterated particular strategies that my daughter should review. He offered to meet us at Barnes and Noble close to our home which was so convenient. Keith is a fabulous teacher and we are so lucky to have found him! Definitely will use him again if the need arises.
Wande D. from Providence, RI
Just getting started on mastering portions of the LSAT. happy to have came across and chose Keith. I am a slow learner and appreciate the fact that Keith is attentive and patient!
Anna B. from Franklin Lakes, NJ
Keith was very helpful for my military ASVAB tutoring and helped me to get a near perfect score. I forgot many of the basics and Keith provided many easy techniques to solving complicated fractions, geometry, etc. He was always on time for the sessions and willing to re schedule as needed. I would recommend Keith to anyone especially struggling with math. He also provided multiple quick ways of solving certain problems, giving you the option to choose your preferred method.
Alex W. from Barrington, RI
Keith is extremely patient, and has done a great job explaining difficult geometry concepts to my daughter. He certainly has a profound understanding on the subject. Easy to communicate and work with. I really appreciate his efforts. Thank you, Keith!
Lauren A. from North Kingstown, RI
Keith helped me raise my verbal and writing score on the GRE. I improved 10 points on my verbal reasoning. I went from 143 to 153 with just 3 sessions and improved from a 3.5 to 4.0 on the writing section. Keith was always early and even extended our sessions to ensure I understood the material being taught. He was so patient when going through the different questions with me and provided several strategies to help me perform better. Keith went the extra mile and it was evident that he prepared himself for each session and spent a lot of time outside of our sessions researching and picking up books for me. He also lent me the GRE book and another book that practiced math problems. Keith truly cares about his students and them doing well. I would highly recommend Keith to anyone who needs a tutor. He is reliable, prompt, and is great at teaching!

It's 2016 and system administrators (system administrators!!) are still saying things like: "Cloud is just servers on the darn internet…" Don't these "system administrators" know it's far more than that?
I know why these knuckle draggers think the way they do. Some of them disregard the cloud's significant and growing role in IT, for whatever reason. Such a shame. Technology "experts" should embrace new changes, not find comfort in what they already know. Alas, this is all too common in technical fields.
I have known more self-proclaimed "wizard sysadmins" who could barely add a new user to a server than I care to think about.
A related problem — and I see this a lot in people who don't get the cloud — is that they do know select technology really well. Because they are an expert at one technology, they feel they can apply it to all. They can't. For example, just because an experienced system administrator really gets Active Directory — or thinks he does anyway — that doesn't mean his opinion on Azure is worth listening to.
Underneath their reluctance, administrators know the cloud is more than hype or a buzzword. But they still make comments like above. They do it because they're afraid their boss is going to realize that their Unix shell skills aren't that important anymore in a DevOps world.
Bad news, guys and gals. If you're not always picking up new and in-demand IT skills, the day will soon arrive when you'll be out of a job.
Many sysadmins also fear, in their heart of hearts, that they can't learn these "newfangled" cloud technologies. They may not be wrong. Many cloud technologies, such as the maze of technologies that make up OpenStack, are not at all easy to learn.
Others fear their jobs are going to disappear as CIOs decide to move from in-house data-centers to the cloud. Hence, their claim there's really nothing new or special about the cloud. So, so wrong.
Of course their fears have a basis of fact.
An Uptime Institute survey of 1,000 IT executives found that 50 percent of senior enterprise IT executives expect most IT workloads to be running on the cloud or colocation sites in the future. Of those surveyed, 23 percent expect the shift to happen next year, and 70 percent expect that shift to occur within the next four years.
Here are two simple truths:
One, the cloud is far more than just a bunch of servers on the Internet. If you're not clear on the key cloud concepts, see my story: Telling the difference between clouds and cloud-washing.
Two, the cloud is taking over all of IT. Pretending otherwise, no matter what the reasons — ignorance, lack of skills, or fear — isn't going to change this.
What are you and your employees doing to clue in to cloud?

I get an error everytime I try to play a YouTube clip... I have updated my Flash Player as well as the YouTube App from the Android Marketplace. Just got the phone yesterday (Sunday, March 6). Any help would be appreciated!
Sorry for your problems. Go into settings, from settings go to applications, from applications go to manage applications. Select ALL at the top of the manage applications page and look for Youtube, its in alphabetical order so it should be at or near the bottom. Select clear data, and then force stop the application. Take your battery out of your phone and then put it back in. It should work after that. If it does not, call us at 1888-211-4727 and we will be able to assist further.
I went to the YouTube app, cleared the data and stopped the application. Reloaded YouTube (had to agree to agree to terms of service again) and still no luck. States - "there was a problem playing this video. please touch screen to retry."
This is a known issue with Evo, one way of watching videos in youtube is by selecting Internet as your player program when asked, and not youtube app. If you go on older pages of this forum, you will see more info regarding this problem. http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/140114#140114
I hope this Helps .
Tried the m.youtube.com, but still would not play the video... I also downloaded the TV.com app and tried it. Would not load a video either. This is starting to make me think that I am glad I have 30 days to try this phone AND Sprint out...
Save yourself a headache. Youtube will not work no matter what I tried. I sent the thing back and cancelled the service well within the 30 day guarantee. Now I have to wait forever for a refund. I hate Sprint and the EVO sucks.

I've made some great progress with the sensor node project over the last two days. After finally getting around the problems I was having with the software bugs and the SPI restrictions I settled on the circuit you can see on the left.
This is a breadboarded Arduino made up of the ATMega328p chip with appropriate resistors and an oscillator. Connected via SPI is the RFM69CW radio Tx/Rx module and via I2C is an HTU21D humidity and temperature sensor.
I've also added an LED to Digital Pin 9 to give a brief flash after each transmission as feedback the unit is working,
Everything is powered by a 3.7v 850mAh lithium rechargeable battery. The battery passes through an MCP1702 voltage regulator to give a nice stable 3.3v for all of the devices. I've added some sleep functions to the code so that in-between transmissions the MCU powers down for 10 seconds before waking and repeating the data transmission. This means for the majority of the time the transmitter is using micro-amps and then only milli-amps for a few milli-seconds. Overall a very efficient state which should easily give a battery life over well over a year.
The data packet contains the node's unique ID number, the battery voltage and the two sensor readings (Temperature and humidity).
I've got the circuit as small as possible on the breadboard (see pic). The next stage would be to transfer it onto a stripboard and solder it all together. Finally i'll design and etch a PCB. I could use SMD parts to make the entire thing even smaller still and swap out the ATMega for an ATTiny which is a smaller chip.
I want to make 2 or 3 different sensor nodes with varying sensors on them (temperature, humidity, pressure, luminosity, etc.) so i've got packets coming in from several nodes. This will then allow me to start writing the code for the base station which will receive the data, time stamp it, store it on an SD Card and then sporadically upload it to a web server.
I've got 433MHz and some 868MHz RFM radio modules and also an SRF radio module from Ciseco which claims to have longer range. These will be all tested out in time to see which is best for penetration through walls, etc.

Misdemeanor Obscenity
Our client, a young man on federal mandatory supervised release (formerly known as parole), was charged with a misdemeanor obscenity. He was accused of printing obscene images of children at a printer at a Walgreens located in south suburban Cook County. Over one hundred images were part of the incident, all depicting underage girls in their underwear and suggestive poses.
To make matters worse for our client, a conviction on this charge, even if it did not result in jail time, would have resulted in a federal charge of Violation of Mandatory Supervised Release. As he had a very strict trial judge in that federal drug matter, and because he had served a little less than a decade for that federal drug crime, the likelihood was high that a violation of mandatory supervised release would have resulted in federal prison time.
He said that he chose us because he realized the stakes were high, and saw our excellent client reviews that referred to our holistic winning defense strategies.
After entering the case, attorney Huma Rashid obtained discovery from the Cook County State's Attorney's Office. After a comprehensive and detailed review of the discovery, the Wigell Law Group Team drafted numerous pre-trial motions in limine, which are normally reserved for serious felony or death penalty cases, and not one-count misdemeanor complaints. That's because at Wigell Law Group, we treat every case, even a straightforward misdemeanor, like a death penalty case.
The numerous and detailed motions in limine, making numerous requests of the court to provide clarity and/or limit the evidence that the State could present at trial, resulted in lengthy arguments and a hearing that lasted for two days.
It was decided, upon discussions with our client, that the matter should be set for trial in the Circuit Court of Cook County. This was done not only because of the legal strength of the defense's arguments (although the fact pattern alone was weak and indicated a finding of guilt), but because of the ramifications and likely federal prison time that would result if the misdemeanor conviction resulted in a violation of mandatory supervised release.
At trial, our client did not testify, choosing instead to assert his fifth amendment right not to testify. An an effective motion for a directed finding and a strong closing argument revealed the legal weaknesses in the prosecution's state such that the trial judge found that the State was unable to meet its burden to convict our client on a charge of obscenity, despite the fact that the images as described in the complaint were of scantily clad young women.
Thus, our client was found NOT GUILTY of the misdemeanor charge of obscenity.
The client and his girlfriend were overjoyed at the excellent result obtained by the Wigell Law Group Team. He was also relieved, as an acquittal on the misdemeanor charge would not result in a federal charge of violation of mandatory supervised release, and he would thus not be facing new federal charges that would likely cause him to be incarcerated in the Bureau of Prisons.
Many people think of misdemeanor charges are not that serious, or unlikely to do lifelong damage. But misdemeanors are quite serious; all criminal charges are very serious, as they expose the person to a loss of freedom, a loss of reputation, and a conviction on their criminal record. Our client was very grateful for the seriousness with which Wigell Law Group treated his case.

MP3: MNDR – "Cut Me Out"
Electro pop sensation, producer/writer Peter Wade and vocalist Amanda Warner a.k.a. MNDR made their way into the spotlight last year after releasing some amiable singles, the E.P.E. EP, and after Palmer sang the chorus on Mark Ronson's "Bang Bang Bang." They're sure to have big plans for 2011, having just released new track "Cut Me Out" for free via Mountain Dew's Green Label Sound.
Similar to Robyn's "Dancing On My Own," "Cut Me Out" has that grainy textural feel to it, with blazing electro pop riffs and ominous bass lines highlighted by Palmer's ecstatic vocals. The duo will be touring with Chromeo this year, and are said to be dropping their debut full length. Let's hope so.

How Important is Social Media to commerce?
It's impossible to deny the rise of online shopping over the years. The internet has become a huge platform for exchanging merchandise, and while many companies both large and small have adjusted fairly well to the need for more competitive online marketing, there are still challenges in the area of social media.
One big reason that the need for social media poses a challenge to businesses is the fact that the majority of effective research done about marketing through social media has turned up evidence that it is highly ineffective at creating sales. Conversions rates from social media sources are statistically less than 1% in almost every report published on the subject. Does this mean that it's a failed concept? Despite the gloomy statistics, there are some huge considerations that are not seen in direct sale studies.
Recognise the Invisible Contribution
Research suggests that social media does not have a solid record of directly creating sales. The problem with focusing on this fact is that you may miss the indirect contribution it has on your customers or potential customers. Your company's social presence online can be useful in these areas:
Word of Mouth Advertisement
Although it's one of the most effective advertisement methods, word of mouth advertisement is difficult to measure. Social media is creating another place for people to talk about your brand or your products. If you are maintaining a consistent presence on people's social platforms, you can create a buzz that is great for biz.
Gaining Customer Trust
Trust has always been an important factor when people are deciding whether or not to buy a product. A recent study by Marketing Land showed that 90% of people are influenced by positive customer reviews of a product. This indicates that people trust the experience of others, even those who they don't know, more than they trust advertisements. You can gain trust through transparency and relevance in social media.
Influencing Purchasing Decisions
Subtle reminders about your products might be doing more than you think. Social networks account for a large amount of the time an average person spends online, meaning if you can find a way to put your brand out there effectively enough you might be able to occupy a larger piece of people's minds when they are thinking about making a certain purchase. People that are familiar with your brand and your products already have a higher likelihood of buying from you.
Using Social Media Effectively
Ecommerce and social media have a tricky relationship. Despite the benefits you can see from promoting yourself online over social networks, you may also see negative results if you are not strategic about how you handle your online presence. Here's a few actions you can implement to experience better outcomes from your social media marketing:
Planning Your Posting
Don't just get online and type up a short message once a day about how great your newest product is. Stay a few steps ahead when it comes to what you will be posting. Plan ahead to follow ongoing trends online and to build hype around specific products that are soon to launch or have relevance to a certain point in time. Building your brand requires you to know what you want to say to people long before you actually say it. This will help you avoid making blind mistakes that may harm your brand image.
Crafting a Specific Online Presence
Don't focus on building a strong social presence everywhere online unless this is part of your strategy. Instead, target certain networks that have a higher following of your target audience. The big four (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest) can be a bit much to handle if you don't have a large staff taking care of your social media presence. Smaller companies should think about focusing on just a few of the many networks online, while larger companies should consider which ones to use more heavily than the others.
Being Interactive
Don't just broadcast information for the world to see. You can keep people's attention a lot better if you allow them to engage in a conversation with you. Some companies have created awesome marketing campaigns this way by having people post pictures of themselves using the products for contests or just because. Emu, a company which sells camping products, hosted a contest years back which asked people to post pictures of the most extreme places they have ever set up a camping hammock. The result was that many camping enthusiasts posted their pictures all over Facebook, inspiring others to take interest and even purchase a hammock for themselves.
Staying Relevant
Trends, hashtags, and viral sensations are a bit daunting if you aren't used to keeping up, but they can mean the difference between attracting the younger generation, who use social media more often, and getting lost in the flood of advertisements online. Stay current with what's happening and try to tailor your posting around relevant events.
Professionalism and Security
Recent news has shown the world just how devastating it can be for a company to be hacked. Your online presence can be severely compromised if someone from the outside gets on your social media accounts and makes any sort of posting. Keep yourself well secured with proper anti-spyware and anti-malware procedures.
One Facebook page learned the hard way just how devastating a hack could be when control of their page was seized by hackers. Ironically, the page that was compromised was Cult of Mac, which is a book about the wildly successful marketing and devoted customer base that the Apple product line has developed over the years.
Cult of Mac ran into serious trouble earlier this month when their Facebook page was attacked by hackers running spam posts, and they were locked out of their page. Within a day, the owners of the page had contacted Facebook and regained access to their page, but not without plenty of panic and jumping through hoops with the website's security and tech support to get things right again.
The damage was done, and their followers were dumbfounded by the obviously spammy posts that were showing up in their news feeds. Though the problem was rectified very quickly, it's a situation that is quick to reflect poorly on a business or organization – particularly one so heavily immersed in the tech field.
In addition to anti-malware and security software, whether you are in charge of a small or a large company, you should consider operating through a VPN (Virtual Private Network). VPNs will encrypt your data and keep prying eyes away from what you're doing online, as well as securing your sensitive information, such as usernames and passwords from the hands of those who would use them maliciously.
While software to protect your actual device from corruption definitely helps to strengthen your security and protect sensitive information, a VPN secures the connection and transfer of data itself, keeping your information secure en-route to the servers. Since most of the world does business on the go, VPNs are a pretty essential part of keeping your business secure, and your image professional.
The Real Outcomes
The truth is that social media and ecommerce have a tricky yet necessary relationship. Your ecommerce business will not reach its full potential if you are not recognizing the impact that social media can have and effectively taking advantage of it. Social media has never been a great tool for creating direct sales, but it is a highly effective method of communicating with your costumers and keeping people in touch with your brand.

Decoration With Indoor PlantsPosted by
There are various indoor plants used for decorating houses and offices. The common and mostly used varieties are as given below:
Pothos or (Epipremnum aureum) – They make an excellent decoration. They can be used on hanging baskets or pots. The more sunlight and frequent watering, better the growth of these plants. They can also grow in less sunlight, thus making them ideal for dark areas. Amongst the varieties, the marbled queen has yellowish white leaves whereas the golden variety has golden streaks on its green leaves.
Rubber Plant – or (Ficus elastica) – These indoor plants prefer low sunlight. The leaves appear waxy and think like rubber, hence called as rubber plant. These plants have enormous growth but one may keep it trimmed especially when they achieve a height of 6 feet or so. This indoor plant is ideal for office decoration.
Peace Lilly – or (Spathiphyllum) – These plants grow with low sunlight. Thus they are used for decoration of dark spaces. The important thing is that this plant needs lots of water, thus it is required to be watered frequently. The white blooms of these indoor plants are very decorative. They should be fertilized at least 5-6 times a year.
Indoor Cactus Plants- There are many varieties of cactus all across the world. It is a benefit that these plants require less amount of water so can be watered about 1-2 times a month. These plants are not required to be fertilized but they do need insecticides, fungicides, etc to be sprayed. They are susceptible to various plant diseases and insects. These plants can also be used as out door plantation if the temperature outside does not go below 30 degree F.
Mother in Laws tongue or (Sansevieria trifasciata) – This is also called as snake plant some times. This indoor plant is very easy to grow and rarely needs any attention to be paid. Thus it may be used frequently for decorating an office where chances of ignorance is more. However, it does not grow well in freezing temperatures. It tolerates poor soil and can survive even if it is watered once a month. But one should take care of its sharp fronds as they may poke through anybody's skin.
There are many varieties of indoor plants. Though they are easy growing, one must pay attention to its watering, spraying insecticides, trimming and towards other things at least once a week. Brown tips of the leaves may suggest over watering. The plants should be watered optimally. Less or more water than required may hamper the indoor plant. Before using the fertilizers and insecticides, one should ensure that they are applicable to the said plant. Every plant has its own physiology. Thus one cannot generalize the applications of fertilizers, insecticides, fungicides to all the plants. One can take advice of a horticulturist in such matters.
For more information on plants and containers that will compliment your office space, or to inquire about a free consultation for plants and planters in your facility just email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Bill C-6 to Become Law on June 19, Changing Canada's Citizenship Act
"We want all permanent residents, if possible, to become Canadians," said Canada's Immigration Minister, Ahmed Hussen, at a recent conference in Toronto, and now the process will become quicker and simpler for immigrants to the country. Bill C-6 — which, among other changes, will decrease the amount of time new immigrants have to wait before becoming eligible to obtain Canadian citizenship — is scheduled to receive Royal Assent this evening (June 19), the final step before the bill may become law.

Grantland Cottage
program summary
Circa 1920, this Victorian cottage is located in one of Nashville's first historic overlay districts: Woodland-in-Waverly. Renovated in 2002 to repair the interior "bones" of the house, the general contract Mr. Salem Forsythe was noted as saying, "This is the first time in my career that I've ever renovated a home down to the studs from the inside out." That's exactly what was done and was necessary to save this historic structure. The historic siding was left in place on the exterior walls while behind them, everything was gutted down to the dirt floor basement. Phase two in 2012 comprised of a gourmet kitchen and Master Bedroom rear addition. The color and placement of the existing exposed orange brick chimney along with the master planned lap pool in the rear yard were utilized as inspiration for the unique granite selection. The granite, found in Brazil and labeled as "Louis Blue" or "Van Gough Blue", takes center stage while GE Monogram appliances, cork flooring, glass mosaic tiles and custom Maple cabinetry compliment. The oversized french doors within the kitchen can be opened to allow for an increase in living space onto the rear acid washed concrete patio. One of the favorite amenities of the client, the firepit is the favorite place to make smores or enjoy a cool evening.

Here is what was said on the day:
There to help anybody and everybody but not once seeking thanks or reward and usually disappearing into the
background once the job is done.
This person is there with advice, help or even a natter and a cup of tea if that is what is needed, and we all
know how important tea is to Landrover owners!
He, yes I said he… was a great friend of our son and like Tim he is going to probably hate this moment as Tim
would never ever seek the limelight.
So with the maximum of embarrassment and a very large round of applause please put your hands together
for the
2019 winner of the "Tim Cup" --- Mr
Richard Francis….".
Tim Letley Cup (TLC) Winner 2018
Here is what he had to say:
"Well what a surprise that was! Thank you all that voted for me. It's nice to feel appreciated but like the other commitee members, we do it because we love our club and not for reward. Thanks again. The trophy is sitting in pride of place in my conservator. I promise to dust it regularly".
More details about the Tim Letley Cup can be found on the About Page.
Jousting For One
Previous entertainment provided by the club in the mini arena have included figure-of-eight chaos driving, dancing in tutus, and balloon jousting. The latter was requested again by the new organisers for the 2018 show.
Unfortunately, only two members turned up this year for the show; The Letleys and Olly. However, Olly's TD5 was poorly with a blown head gasket, so only the Series 3 was able to enter the ring. (Ironic, as previously The Smurfs said J.C. would struggle to make the tight turns). Determined not to let the locals down, they re-organised the jousting for one, and even got their pic in the local Dover paper. Well done guys. Lets hope more club members can support this event next year.
Tim Letley Cup (TLC) Winner 2017
John Clark would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who voted him as the Tim Letley's Cup 'Club Member of the Year'.
He looks forward to continued fun with the club, and further website and recruitment duties.
More details about the Tim Letley Cup can be found on the About Page.
The Original Truck
Mike Turpin's Truck
Mike Turpin's Truck
John Clark would like to thank Mike Turpin (on behalf of Damian Young) for helping out at rather short notice for the 'Sci-Fi by the Sea' event at Herne Bay, on Sunday 25th June 2017.
Damian Young, an organiser of the event, found the Invicta Land Rover Club website online and sent John an email during Friday afternoon. He was looking for a close match to the truck in a picture, needed to promote the sale of a Tardis for charity. The truck he had originally booked had to pull out (reasons unknown). After going through the options, John messaged Mike who kindly agreed to step up to the mark for this event.
This modern day version of the classic scene went down well.
Invicta Land Rover Club to the rescue!
See the reason for it here.

Paw and Pal
After being in the Veterinary field for 30 years, I started my own pet sitting business because of my love for animals . I have met all kinds of animals over the years, and have taken care of many. I decided to bring the characters in my business logo to life and send them out to experience all kinds of new things and to find new friends. Having a friend is always a special thing. Paw and Pal are now forever friends. – Gina
Paw and Pal – Forever Friends is available for purchase from Amazon.
Easy enough for children to read and entertaining enough to get the dinosaurs to stop fighting.
The bright colors and contrast keep the attention of younger children.

As a vision impaired person, I try as much as possible to be able to change backgrounds to a darker color than WHITE or very light color all the time. In the old interface I was able to set my entire GMail interface (including the inbox list!) to BLACK with bold yellow text. MUCH easier on my eyes to read to be honest. Somewhere along the line I either changed this or GMail took it away from me. I now only have the choice of "custom" color themes that are pretty much locked in color-wise anyway.
