"Trudi possesses a unique talent. As she gets to know her client better she is able to adapt her writing style to suit your voice. You can express a concrete but general thought to her, and she can revise it in your own voice in much greater detail. Also, Trudi has been instrumental in developing a rock-solid digital strategy for my law practice. From crafting the content for my website and ensuring that it's search engine optimized, to creating my content marketing strategy and honing my voice and messaging for the weekly posts on my blog, Street Savvy Lawyer, to social media (Facebook, LinkedIn) and email marketing campaigns, she's helped me expand my existing business and position for the future development of my Street Savvy brand. We're also currently working on video content/vlogs with a team that Trudi's assembled. It's a blast working with Trudi, and I trust that as my marketing needs grow, she'll be right there to help me hit it out of the park time and time again." – Larry Slade, Principal, Slade Law
"Trudi is a wildly gifted writer, creator, thinker and person. She is my creative partner in crime and has supported all aspects of both my web design business, Fly HC Multimedia (from production to content creation and beyond!) and the development of my eBook novel, Find Me I'm Yours, the first-ever transmedia "storyverse," which includes 33 websites, original videos and other interactive elements. I love collaborating with her and look forward to so much more to come!" ~ Hillary Carlip, author, artist, and digital innovator
"Trudi's an incredibly talented writer, editor, and content designer and an unparalleled collaborator. Simply put, she magically transformed our fledgling concept into a crisp, professional website for our school and, within hours, fully optimized the site. With Trudi's extraordinary knowledge base, eye for detail, and ability to communicate with tech neophytes, she's the real deal. I can't imagine a better experience than working with Trudi to launch our new venture, and I'm so grateful for her guidance." – Jennifer Dohr, co-founder, Beacon School for Boys
"As I started to blog, I knew I needed an editor to help me with content creation and posting. Trudi is a professional writer and blogger, so I turned to my friend to help me. Wow, that was a great move! Not only does she edit my writing, she also has learned how my brain works so that she can take my notes and thoughts, and transform and improve the words while never losing the meaning of what I was trying to convey to my patients and the public. She is also great at finding photos to match, uploading content to the website and keeping me on task to maintain my blogging schedule. A gem, Trudi is!!" – Tina Koopersmith MD, West Coast Women's Reproductive Center
"We've been wanting to redo our company brand identity and to build a website for many years now, and Trudi helped us develop a logo we love, a professional, great-looking business system including stationary and business cards, and a website that clearly communicates who we are, through both the content she developed and also through the visual presentation. We're proud of our new look, and enjoyed working with Trudi every step of the way." – Dawn & Brian Bregman, owners, b Alex Property Advisors
"I've had the pleasure of working with Trudi over the years as a Public Relations/Marketing Executive, in my position as a Food Editor/writer for Palm Springs Life Magazine, and as a freelance lifestyle and food writer/journalist for numerous publications. Most recently, Trudi services as editor on my novel, Lady in the Window, were invaluable. Her commitment and passion always comes shining through and that's why I adore working with her and hope to do so for many years to come! – Maryann Ridini Spencer, award-winning screenwriter/producer/journalist/novelist and business owner
"Trudi is one of the smartest, snappiest writers I've worked with. She's got that rare combination of pop culture savvy and a tremendous talent with words. Not only that, but she's a brilliant team player who loves to say yes. I've only got *heart eyes* for Trudi Roth. – Britta Lundin, webmistress, filmmaker, nice gal

Yesterday, I ran a 10K race. Snohomish Women's Run. Originally, I was going to run a half marathon, but I caught a cold last week and decided to transfer over to the 10K to be on the safe side. I am glad I did–it was a fun race, and I love the 6 mile distance. Not too short, not too long. I don't have to fuel during the run, but I still earn that wonderful sense of exhaustion with just a tinge of soreness afterward (I love that feeling… I know, it's peculiar).
I had a really good morning at the race. Race-day mile PR, 5K PR, and 10K PR all wrapped into one. I never could have imagined comfortably running a sub-1:00 10K, but I did it yesterday (without going all guts!). I kind of wish I had pushed just a little more; I was two minutes shy of getting third place in my age division. I had to settle for fourth. I'll be honest… getting fourth place in my age division? That was awesome. I am not a speedy runner, and I am used to finishing comfortably in the middle wave of runners. It felt really good to find myself in the first wave of finishers. A good motivator to keep training, and validation that these speed goals are yielding improvements.
The route itself was really beautiful… right along the river and the woods for the entirety. The only thing I didn't like was that the entire path was paved. I do love a trail! However, there were no hills, so I really can't complain.
Training for next month's half continues. Eight miles this weekend at a more relaxed pace… though I'd like to stick around 10 minutes/mile if I can.

In 2014-2015, The Employment Appeal Tribunal Received 1,200 Appeals. Settlements Ranged From £1,000 – £500,000. Lawsuits Can Damage Your Reputation, Derail Your Team's Motivation And Make Investors Nervous.
Are You Sure Your Hiring Practices Are Compliant?
You Don't Need To Worry About It.
Linkilaw's Got You Covered.
Get The Essential Legal Documents Every Business Owner
Needs To Look After Your Staff At A Price That Can't Be Dismissed.
Our Employers Pack Sends Lawsuits And Claims Packing!
- Speedy Service
- Quality Contracts
- Affordable Solutions
- Advice Tailored To Your Needs
Finding the perfect team is stressful enough for any business.
Making sure that your employment practices are compliant with the law is another challenge entirely.
We understand that with all the time, money and energy you've invested into your business, getting your legal foundations in order is probably not the first thing on your checklist.
Don't Ignore Employment Law!
During the last five years, 6 out of 10 employers have faced an employee lawsuit with the average settlement costing around £200,000.
Ensuring your startup complies with employment regulations is becoming increasingly important to make certain your startup survives.
I mean… what startup has a spare £200,000? If you do…please let us in on your secret!
The majority of employment disputes could have been easily dismissed.
How, you ask?
If the company itself had laid out all the expectations of the employee, described the company culture, and ensured that all the right legal documents were in place to comply with the letter of law then any potential dispute could easily be resolved!
Linkilaw understands that startups can not afford settlements of this magnitude, nor afford to pay anywhere near the £3,000-£5,000 to get the correct contracts beforehand.
Startups are continually placed in a vicious cycle between lawyers' price points and tight purse strings.
Linkilaw is here to break this cycle and make sure your relationship with all employees is watertight.
If the business had laid out its expectations, described the company culture and ensured that all its legal documents were in order any potential dispute would have been resolved.
We understand how fast paced your work is.
This is why we deliver the Employer's Pack in 3-business days so you can work down your to-do list.
The Employer's Pack includes essential documents when you start hiring staff. Here's what's included:
This is a contract between you and your employee. It details:
- The job title, salary, time and place of work.
- Termination and notice periods.
- Holidays and days off.
- Any other requirements you wish to include.
This is a contract between you and your consultant or contractor. It details:
- The duties and obligations of the consultant.
- The start date and fees.
- Confidential information and liability.
This details out the essential policies for your employees. Apply the tone and organisational details. It includes:
- Employee benefits.
- Disciplinary and poor performance procedure.
- Sickness absence policy.
- Parental leave policies.
- Health and Safety policy.
Don't believe these documents
are vital to your survival?
Just look at how vital employment agreements are in Uber's current court battle with 19 drivers.
In a tribunal described as 'the court case if the year in UK employment law', lawyers representing the drivers argued that the terms and conditions of their work with Uber meant they are not technically self-employed. They should therefore be entitled to a range of benefits they do not currently have access to.
Uber is trying to avoid paying benefits claiming they are not an employee but facilitators, joining customers with drivers.
A similar case was heard in California and Massachusetts, where Uber reached a $100 million settlement to avoid the prospect of reclassifying its drivers as employees.
If Uber had drawn up a consultant or contractor agreement, Uber would have been able to mitigate risk. Travis will have kicked himself about that one.
Just look at what also happened to GrubHub, DoorDash and Homejoy.
These businesses did not have employment contracts in place, but viewed their workers as contractors. Some had worked there in excess of a year.
Unlike Uber, who could afford to shell out a large settlement fee, Homejoy had to close its doors.
If Grubhub, Doordash and Homejoy had employment contracts in place, and a staff handbook detailing procedure for employees to complain, then they would not have lost money in settlements and extensive litigation.
The misclassification of employees as independent contractors is becoming more prevalent in workplaces globally.
It is understandable why startups choose this model, as it leads to a reduction in their burn rate.
HOWEVER, whether you're hiring an employee or a contractor you need to make sure your business is covered. Each Employer's Pack can be customised to what you need, delivered when you need it and secure your startup's workforce from seed to success.
But… why is a Staff Handbook so important?
Just look at how much Chipotle (YUM!) had to pay out to a disgruntled employee.
In August 2016, a Chipotle employee was awarded $550,000 in compensatory and punitive damages.
The employee informed her boss that she was pregnant. Because there was no staff handbook, she was unaware of her employee entitlements. Her boss made her inform him whenever she needed the bathroom.
The last straw came when the employee told her boss she had to leave early to go to a prenatal doctor's appointment. He ignored her, and she went anyway. The next day, he fired her in front of her fellow employees.
Although a staff handbook is not required by law, a court or tribunal will take it into account when deciding whether you're a responsible employer when faced with an internal dispute.
Why Can't I Just Use Free Legal Documents I Come Across Online?
It's no crime to be tempted by "free" legal documents online, which promise to safeguard your startup.
And it's no surprise why startups fall for it.
But does it make sense to get a contract that may or may not work. The issue with these documents is that ANYONE (with or without a law degree) could have written them. If anything goes awry, or you need more clauses added to the contract, there is no one to help you!
Linkilaw is in the business of ensuring that you know what you're paying for!
The lawyers that draft our documents have worked with Facebook, Amazon, Universal Music, Warner Bros, Dunhill and Cartier (to name a few).
Some of our lawyers are armed with over 30 years of experience in their field and will do their utmost to shield your startup from anything that will do your business harm.
A Linkilaw drafted agreement provides you with:
- 1. Assurances that both the employer as well as the employee are clear on the terms of employment, to prevent major disputes between them.
- 2. Even if a dispute occurs, the documents clearly outlines the terms of employment.
- 3. In the worst case scenario, if the unsolved dispute reaches the court, then this agreement ensures a clear solution because all terms of employment are clearly documented in writing and are applicable to both parties.
These Documents Are Way Less Expensive Than What ALL Law Firms Charge. Are They Really Up To Scratch?
We mean by all means it would be easy for us to charge you lots more if you'd like us to, but we think it's time we helped you grow and spend the appropriate amount of money.
After all our big idea is to disrupt the legal industry, and get out the way so you can grow your business.
Our lawyers used to charge extortionate fees before they left their city firms to enjoy a better lifestyle. They're experienced in working with smaller startups through to working with some of the largest technology companies in the world. This lifestyle change allowed them to focus on lowering their costs whilst maintaining their high standards.
You need to ensure that you have the most cost-effective, experienced and relatable lawyer to support you and your needs.
How Personalised Are these Documents? How Many Changes Can I Make?
Customisation… price! Gone are the days of lawyer's fees piling by the hour! For standard cases, our prices are fixed – from the beginning of the process until the very end.
Whatever work is needed is completed in 3 working days, as we make it our mission to understand your business in order to draft the right documents for it.
There will be exceptions if you are wanting us to write the equivalent of Tolstoy's War and Peace, keep changing your mind backwards and forwards, or if your requests are wildly above the allotted time.
- 1 Get your Startup Legal Session (It's Free!).
- 2 Order the essential employer documents you need for your business.
- 3 Fill in a quick form so we know of details to include when drafting your contracts.
- 4 Within 3 business days, you'll receive your personalised contracts drafted by one of our qualified, highly rated and vetted solicitors.
- 5 Everything's almost done! All you need to do now is review the documents and let us know of any issues within 3 business days of receiving the contracts.
They're ready to be signed, and spread amongst your workforce.
Quick, Simple, Quality Service:
Expect the documents in your possession within 3 business days.
In exceptional cases we may need more time to finish the work – but in that case, we would let you know beforehand.
From beginning to end, the power is in your capable hands!
Don't Listen to us, listen to Maura Fransishku from I AM LDN:
"As a founder of my own startup, it was refreshing to work with people who truly understood my business' needs. I didn't go to law school but I'd like to think after the Startup Legal Session and the consultations that I understand my business' legal needs quite well! It's only been six months since we launched, but already I know that I'm so happy I got these documents from Linkilaw!"
– Mauria Fransishku, I AM LDN
We needed to know. So we rang up lawyers and law firms in the U.K.
People didn't like to give fixed prices. And the prices to meet with them ranged from £150 – £1,500 an hour. That's an expensive cup of coffee if you go to their offices for a meeting.
After searching far and wide for answers, to nail down firms on their prices and to negotiate like badasses, we were able to find the average U.K. fixed price options.
Sadly, we were shocked by the result.
That was one of the reasons we swore to protect our customers from the lack of transparency and spiraling legal costs that comes from hourly rates. This is why we provide a quality service for a fixed price.
|A Lawyer's Price
|Linkilaw's Price
|Employer's Pack
|£2,500 – £8,000
We can't always guarantee that we will keep our prices at this level. But we're working hard to continue to streamline our service, to keep prices low without compromising quality. We know you want a great service, competitive pricing and a fast turnaround. And we're proud that our reputation precedes us.

A: Of course! We will let you know what you need and what you don't with our Startup Legal Session (It's Free!) before you even think about purchasing a pack!
Q: What about customisation?
A: Customisation is included! (Don't say we don't treat you!) On the off chance, however, your company requires contracts with more than the normal amount of customisation, you may have to pay an extra fee. But that won't be a surprise to you, and you can always request for your money back instead.
Q: What makes Linkilaw different?

Finding The Right (reliable) Resources Is The #1 Problem For Most New Marketers
First, I really do care about helping YOU find the RIGHT RESOURCES, because I failed for a long time by using many of the WRONG resources. I didn't know then what I know now. Having the RIGHT RESOURCES really matters. It can mean the difference between success and failure.
It's like anything in life – you don't know what you don't know. Your learning curve can be cut in HALF by connecting with the right people, right away, who can steer you towards the RIGHT RESOURCES – which are essential for online business success.
Get more Results with the right resources
Nobody wants to wait too long for results. Fast turnover is fun! When results happen, they propel you on to your next results, and then more and more, etc. This is a rinse and repeat business. When you get a result, you repeat the process to get more results. As you get more results, you scale up and your business flourishes. This isn't hard to do when you have the RIGHT RESOURCES!
Create multiple income streams with the right resources
There is no doubt that having multiple streams of income is the ONLY way to live. Having all your eggs in one basket is only a good thing at Easter time. It's a fact that most people will lose everything when hard times hit and their only stream of income is severed or even just reduced. That's a scary future to face, yet that's what the masses do.
We've been trained and conditioned to believe that one paycheck for 40 years is our lot and our reward. Having multiple incomes increases your options in life. More options = more freedom. The freedom to choose anything.
Having said that, I can tell you some of the very best places to go, and what you will find there. I want you to think of me as your Cruise Director on a ship full of Business Opportunities. I can direct you towards the influencers in this business. I'm not big-time, but that's NOT MY INTENTION. My intention is to help as many people as possible get through their lives by jumping into their dreams like I have. If there is a way to make money online, I am either currently doing it, have done it in the past, or I know others who are doing it.
I have streamlined the businesses I now associate
with down to the most successful in their fields.
They have integrity and visions that are inclusive of anyone who is willing to do the work. I won't lower my standards and work with anyone just to make a buck. Ever.
When you have long term visions and goals for yourself, position yourself with the right people, and do the work that's required of you, life becomes much easier.
So the question becomes – how many income streams do YOU want and which one will YOU put YOUR focus on RIGHT NOW?
It's your business, your choice. Connect with me HERE for any questions.
IF YOU WANT TO create the BUSINESS of your dreams you need balance
Are you in Balance?
Without balance in all areas, the road of life becomes very bumpy and hard to travel. Granted, bumps are expected. They help you understand and really know what you DON'T want in your life, and that's important. When things happen – and they do – you have to learn to roll with it and know that life is presenting you with your FOCUS.
Focusing on the bad parts, or the imbalances in your life, will only make them bigger. Life is a smoother ride when you can train yourself to focus on the GOOD things that are happening in your life. Yes, ALL the good things, right down to even the very littlest of things, like a smile 🙂
The gooder your focus, the better life gets! As a matter of fact, when those GOOD things get bigger, that's when life gets really fun!
Choose your focus to create your best balance
The more balance (GOOD focus) you create in your life, the smoother the ride. And everyone loves a smooth ride when you can get it, right?
Need some real resources to help with your focus?

About Vehicle Leasing
For both the public and businesses, it is well documented that vehicle leasing can be financially beneficial for them. On the other hand, with tons of available options these days, being bogged down is so common. As you read this article, you are going to learn about jargon as well as other reasonable tips that can be useful when selecting which contract hire or car lease deal to choose for your needs.
Number 1. Choosing a contract hire – basically, contract hire is a vehicle leasing contract that is very versatile as this works well no matter if you're a partnership, limited company or sole trader. The biggest advantage for selecting contract hire is that, you'll only have to pay for monthly or fixed rental and oftentimes included in the package is the service as well as repair of vehicle you've chosen.
It is smart to ensure that this is included in any lease deals or offers to be able to avoid dealing with hidden costs. The contract hire is only available for the duration of 18 to 48 months contract at which time you must return the car to the lender.
Number 2. Choosing personal contract purchase – otherwise known as PCP, this car lease deal is typically offered on a 2 to 4 year deal. PCP is available to a number of interested individuals as well so long as they have good credit rating. It is almost the same to other kinds of lease available in that you'll have to settle the initial low amount and which will be followed by fixed monthly payments. At the end of contract agreement, you'll have to hand the car back to lender of if you want to, you can pay them to keep the car for good.
Number 3. Choosing personal contract hire – much like personal contract purchase, this is also offered on 2 to 4 year basis and is the best option for business and companies that are providing employees of certain stature of personal car allowance. Like with other deals, you have to be sure that the service, repair and maintenance are offered as part of the deal and that you will return the car before the end of agreement.
When making initial inquiries about car lease, these are only some of the types of car leasing that you should be mindful about. Say for example that you have a bad credit rating or has recently started a new company on the other hand, there are several options that you can try if you wish to lease a car which you might want to inquire like lease purchase, subprime contracts or non-status contracts as well as hire purchase.

Close Qualifying Suggests Action-Packed Off-Road Show At Las Vegas
Las Vegas, Nov 7, 2010: In qualifying for tomorrow's round #13 of the 15-round 2010 Lucas Oil Off Road Series at the off-road facility at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Double 2009 division winner Carl Renezeder threw down an ultra-hot 1.07.793 lap of the wild 1.1-mile off-road course to top the Pro 4 speed charts. The Montebello (California) native was followed quite closely on the qualifying charts by Adrian Cenni from the US Virgin Islands with an eyeblink close 1:07.909 lap and Santa Monica's Mike Johnson less than a second behind at 1:08.721. In all 12 drivers qualified for Saturday's top division Pro 4 division race on the tough multi-turn/jump/berm/ off-camber/table-top-studded dirt course that's set only a few feet from 6,000 grandstand seats, each and every one only a few yards from the action...
The qualifying sheet for the Pro 2 Unlimiteds has Las Vegan Rob Maccahren leading the next neatest qualifier Greg Adler (Manhattan Beach. CA) by a similarly-slim margin 1:09.799 to 1:09.969, with double-threat Carl Renezeder right there in third at 1:10.126.
In the Pro Lite Unlimited division, the Metal Mulsiha man himself, Brian Deegan put his machine on the pole for tomorrow's race with a 1:12.333 with Chris Brant and Matt Lodice right behind at 1:13.297 and 1:14.954. Brant calls Council Bluffs, Iowa his home and Lodice is from San Diego.
The Unlimited Pro Buggies top three all qualified within 3/10ths of second! 1:13.036, 1:13.081, and 1:13.381! Bobby Pecoy (Yorba Linda, CA) got fast time (and was quite pleased that the Lucas Clocks read out to three places past the seconds reading! Justin Davis (Las vegas) was second and (also from Yorba Linda) was third-fastest qualifier.
Gates open at 10am at LVMS for round 13 of the Lucas Oil Series.

CamelBak® Announces Greatest Redesign to the M.U.L.E. Hydration pack in over 20 years
PETALUMA, Calif. (January 10, 2017) – Continuous improvement leads to continuous adventure. This core CamelBak® belief, led to the largest design update of the world's most iconic hydration pack—the CamelBak M.U.L.E®. The updated M.U.L.E. LR 15 is designed with innovative CamelBak Low Rider™ technology, which features a lumbar reservoir. This provides a lower center of gravity and increased stability by putting water weight low and on the hips for more comfort and mobility.
Every Low Rider pack is specially designed with compression webbing that runs from the waist belt through the reservoir compartment and around the reservoir itself, allowing for direct compression of the reservoir for maximum stability. It also gives the rider the ability to maintain proper compression as the volume decreases during the ride.
CamelBak also updated the H.A.W.G.® LR 20 and L.U.X.E.® LR 14 as part of this growing movement to lumbar hydration systems, both of which hold their own clout in the mountain bike community.

Often, I find myself taking a more critical look at games than I otherwise intend to when writing these articles. Typically, my mind tends to focus on what could have been improved, identifying positive aspects only in passing. In the spirit of the holidays, and in light of what I have been playing recently, I feel it is time to invert this. My topic for this week, Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, has much valid criticism that can be levied towards it. However, there is a lot of good that is worth discussing.
In particular, the Nemesis System has a lot of potential for improvement and reiteration. As one might expect from a game with "Middle-Earth" in the title, Shadow of Mordor takes place in the same world as Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series. Because of this, the game's enemies consist almost entirely of Sauron's Orc Army, including the Captains and Warchiefs. What is interesting about the Nemesis System is that it allows this army to change overtime in a more systematic nature than other video games have been able to do in the past.
Basically, every Captain or Warchief has a Power Rating and a list of combat traits. These traits can consists of strengths, such as bonus attack power or invulnerability to ranged attacks, and weaknesses, like instant death from stealth attacks or a fear of other creatures in the game world. Overtime, by performing feats and gaining recognition for other orcs, these leaders can increase in power. As they do, they will start to lose weaknesses and gain strengths. It is even possible for them to duel other bosses for promotions. Forcing the player to run away, or killing them (the protagonist is immortal, so he will just respawn) will also result in an increase in power. Further, the enemy leader in question will remember any confrontations players have had with them and comment on them in future encounters. Players can also sabotage a commander's attempt to gain power by completing optional side missions.
The most obvious positive of this mechanic is that it allows for storytelling born purely of the system itself, in an emergent manner. Out of all of my friends that also played Shadows of Mordor, many of them can recount the tales of their struggle against one or two particularly powerful orcs, which they know by name. Though my particular example's name has been forever lost, I can distinctly recall my struggles against a powerful orc captain and his poisoned weapon, with increased physical attack power. The more he killed me, the stronger he grew, eventually gaining immunity to both ranger attacks and close-quarters finishing moves.
Each time I fought him, he would mock me for my continuous losses against him and his forces. Eventually, these victories against me gained him the rank of warchief, and two loyal bodyguards. After my seventh attempt, I finally caught him by surprise, diving from my perch, shoving my dagger into his backside. A tense ten minute exchange of hit-and-run tactics eventually turned in my favor, as my final ambush resulted in his stinking head being ripped straight off of his cold, lifeless corpse. It is worth noting that this exchange between myself and the now nameless warchief was not part of the main campaign at all. This was entirely driven by the systems at work, created by my interactions with the game on the fly. Many other such stories were created with this system, and each of them were unique to the player involved.
Another advantage to this system is that it requires very little in terms of explanation. Though the game does tutorialize it during the main campaign, my experience with the game, and those of many others, demonstrates how unnecessary it was. Generally, most of us were already spending so much time fighting captains and warchiefs that we had already figured out the nuances of it before the point in the story where we were supposed to learn. Simply by interacting with the systems, we found that it was fairly easy to understand how these mechanics worked together and how we could interact with them. This is not to say that the tutorials should not exist, as obviously some gamers might take more time and/or teaching to understand what is going on. I am merely stating that the simplicity of the system itself makes achieving said understanding a less arduous task.
The last effect of the Nemesis System, and the most interesting in my opinion, is the ability it gives the player to manipulate and control, both directly and indirectly, the enemies they fight. Through the choices of which side missions to complete, leaders to go after, and how they approach encounters, the flow of power in Sauron's army will be altered. As a result, the player's actions shape what kind of forces they go against. Continuous failures (or inaction) and deaths will result in stronger enemy forces in the area. Conversely, taking out enemy captains and/or stopping them from gaining power will keep them weak and easy to kill. Worth mentioning is that there is no, "You chose X, so Y happened as a result," like we find in many RPGs. Rather than doing this through some binary choice, is it done in a systematic manner. No one decision will have a dramatic effect, but the player's attitude towards completing objectives will affect how many opportunities the opposition has to grow, giving them indirect control over these leaders.
However, this is not the only way players can assert their influence over their foes. Very late in the game's main story, the protagonist gains the power to "Brand" orcs, giving him control over their thoughts and actions. When they are weakened or scared, it is even possible to do this to the captains and warchiefs in the army. In this way, players can insert spies and double agents into Sauron's army to gain control of portions of it. There is much potential to be had through this mechanic. For example, if a particular warchief is causing trouble, it is possible to brand one of their bodyguards, or get another one of the player's already-controlled captains into that position. When the time comes to strike, these "bodyguards" can be ordered to turn on their own commander, granting the player an extra advantage they may not otherwise have been given.
The addition of Branding also affects the flow of power. Since players do have a hand at indirectly influencing the flow of power, they can use this influence to funnel more of the power to the captains and warchiefs currently under their control. At the same time, they can starve the forces they want to take over or eliminate, by helping their allies get stronger. Instead of participating in side-missions, hoping to prevent the captain's success, they will be assisting him in completing his objective. Much like in Assassin's Creed: Rogue, this is a very interesting inversion of mechanics.
With this Nemesis System in place, Shadow of Mordor shows the power of systematizing elements in the game to give players their own opportunities to affect the game world. Though the game itself suffers from really bad writing, the mechanics are solid. I earnestly feel that given a different lore to work with, and more solid mission design and writing, these systems show great potential. Though fairly simple, I foresee a lot that could be done with this core.

How Can You Master the Art of Icon Web Design?
Look around you on any day of the week, and you'll see that there are icons everywhere. There are icons on your smartphone's interface, icons on your keyboard, and icons on a road sign straight ahead of you.
If you can name it, there are icons.
Icons are there to help us understand the world better and process information correctly. But icons aren't just limited to the offline world. In 2016, they're everywhere on the online world, too, where they are used to support content and help users have a better online experience.
Whenever you enter a new website, how long you remain on the page depends on how readable the information is. Icons help us to grasp the main points, and they help us to process information speedily.
Icons also draw attention, and they enhance readabilitya nd improve your overall business identity package.
The Importance Of Unique And Interesting Web Icon Design
If your web icon design is good, you will be able to speedily sum up exactly what your text is all about. A good-looking web icon can even communicate entire content, which means there is no need to waste further time by adding more text.
An ace icon for web design also draws the user's attention to something important, thereby creating more conversions for your page. Icons – like pictures – are worth a thousand words, and without icons, your website could be dull enough for people to leave instantly.
Without a high quality icon web design, you will also struggle to make your website readable. While lots of web designers continue to rely on bullet points, they can be boring. Engaging, well-crafted icons are a much better way of drawing attention to your content. The key is to not overdo things.
6 Tips For Crafting A Slick Icon For Web Design
Keep Things Simple
It's important that you keep things simple and basic. If you do this, your icons will be more versatile, and can thus be used in a range of different projects.
Be Consistent With Your Light Sources
It's really easy to get carried away with web icon design and forget that each style has to be consistent with one another.
But just as important as consistent style is consisting lighting. Any mismatch in lighting styles between your different icons is going to be noticeable for all the wrong reasons.
Use Vector Format
Your icon will be used in a number of sizes. For this reason, it's important to use vector graphics because your designs will be scaleable and can be used for different projects.
Bear In Mind Cultural Differences
While an icon on a road sign might have an obvious meaning to you, it may have a totally different meaning to someone from another culture.
When creating your icons, remember that some will have different meanings to people from oner cultures.
Be Colourful
Don't be bland because bland gets overlooked on the Internet. Instead, but colourful – but be harmonic.
Design For Large Formats AND Small Scales
Your designs need to accommodate both small and large scales and formats, so always bear this in mind when creating your icons.
Our Team Of Icon Designers
Icons play a key role in web design. Although they might be small, creating one that stands out and enhances your website is not easy and takes a lot of time.
Our team of experienced web icon designers bring your pages to life. Using the latest in sophisticated software, we create icons that grab a user's attention – and never let go.

Environmental Factor, August 2009, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences
High School Researcher at Dartmouth Wins Award
By Rebecca Wilson
August 2009
Nick Sinnott-Armstrong, a high-school student who completed a summer research project in the Dartmouth College Superfund Research Program (SRP), took first prize for his work in a programming contest at the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO), held July 8-12 in Montreal.
Sinnott-Armstrong worked with Casey Green and Jason Moore, Ph.D., of the NIEHS-supported Integrative Biology Core (IBC) at Dartmouth to analyze and present epidemiological data using computer technology normally found in 3-D video games. He is the first author on a newly published paper (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19630950?ordinalpos=1&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum) reporting on the application in health research.
An advanced Graphical Processing Unit, or GPU, runs an adaptation of another Dartmouth innovation - a machine learning algorithm called Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) (http://www.multifactordimensionalityreduction.org/) . MDR was built to detect and characterize interactions among various attributes to determine predictors of a particular outcome. It has been practically applied to the analysis of gene-environment interactions in genome-wide association studies.
The technology developed by the Core directly supports research efforts within the Dartmouth SRP. "The... GPU... reduces computational time by nearly 150-fold, compared to traditional computational methods," said Moore (http://dms.dartmouth.edu/faculty/facultydb/view.php?uid=2882) , who heads the IBC. "This significant speedup will greatly improve our ability to search through genomics datasets to identify those genes that interact with toxic metals and other environmental factors to influence susceptibility to common diseases such as cancer."

Thanksgiving dinner is not the only way to reduce the turkey population on Staten Island.
The state Wednesday announced a plan to curb the growing number of turkeys in Ocean Breeze by coating the bird eggs with vegetable oil during breeding season to prevent their hatching.
City Councilman James Oddo (R-Mid-Island), whose feathers have been ruffled more than once by the unruly flock and who recently suggested birth control for pigeons nesting at the Staten Island Ferry terminals, welcomed the state's latest turkey-trimming plan.
Earlier this month, Oddo proposed the city use OvoControl-P, a drug that causes pigeon eggs not to hatch and is being tried in Los Angeles, on the pesky ferry birds.
He told a reporter Wednesday he is not mounting an anti-bird political platform.
"I have nothing against fowl, I have nothing against birds. If they leave me alone, I will leave them alone," he said.
But the turkeys -- a roaming flock now estimated by the state to contain about 72 birds -- is pestering the constituents of Oddo and Rep. Vito Fossella (R-Staten Island/Brooklyn).
The two men joined representatives of the state Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) for a pre-Thanksgiving press conference Wednesday near the grounds of South Beach Psychiatric center, where several of the curious turkeys were loitering and gobbling.
Earlier this year, a Dongan Hills man became so aggravated by the turkeys roosting on his block that he fired a barrage of bottle rockets at the birds.
The man was arrested and charged with attempted cruelty to wildlife.
Burgher Avenue resident Vera Fail can sympathize.
She said she has returned home on several occasions to find the bold birds on her front lawn, blocking the entrance to her house. Mrs. Fail characterized the turkeys as "filthy" and "horrible."
"I'm afraid of them," she added. "You have no idea what they are like until they start to bother you."
The turkeys had no comment, but state representatives said the situation is no laughing matter.
"It is a serious problem," said Suzanne Mattei, DEC's regional director. "Turkeys should not be showing up on front lawns."
Solving the fowl problem has been tricky.
The state rejected an offer by Oddo to transport the turkeys upstate, saying the birds had become domesticated and would not do well in the wild.
Instead, state workers will begin finding nests here and coating the eggs in March, the traditional breeding season. Vegetable oil traps carbon dioxide inside the eggs and kills the baby birds.
The process is expected to whittle the turkey flock naturally as it ages and no new birds are born. The average life span of a turkey is six to 10 years.
Staten Island's native turkey population ended around the turn of the last century. The current flock was likely started when some birds were dumped several years ago in the area, which provides old-growth trees and natural wetlands where they thrive.
DEC workers also plan to mail tip sheets to homeowners in the area with suggestions for keeping the turkeys away.
Homeowners can use a garden hose to gently spray the birds with water. They should also clear seeds from trees, shrubs and lawns and refrain from feeding turkeys.
The fate of pregnant pigeons at the ferry is less clear.
The state must sign off on the birth control plan for pigeons at the city-controlled ferry, but a DEC representative said Wednesday that the chemical in the pigeon formula had not yet been approved for use in New York State.

Elon Musk's rocket trucking business, SpaceX, is rolling on the celestial highway again after successfully launching a Dragon capsule atop a Falcon 9 rocket, then landing the rocket's first stage back on terra firma.
The mission marks a second successful return to space (the first being this one) after a satellite launch effort, met with a fiery end in September last year, later found to be the result of a pressure vessel that was loaded at too low a temperature.
This launch was delayed by 24 hours after a "slightly odd" reading from a hydraulic piston that led Musk to offer the following analysis of the delay.
If this is the only issue, flight would be fine, but need to make sure that it isn't symptomatic of a more significant upstream root cause— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 18, 2017
By the 19th, no further anomalies were detected and the Falcon 9 ascended without incident. The Dragon 9 payload is now en route to the International Space Station, carrying supplies and the Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment (SAGE III) instrument that will peer at Earth's high atmosphere to monitor gases there.
As is SpaceX's wont, the company also managed to land the Falcon 9's first stage, as shown in the video below.
Dragon will now take a couple of days to reach the ISS and looks to be in fine shape, as its solar arrays deployed as planned.
The launch is also notable for having used Kennedy Space Center's LC-39A facility for the first time. Used for numerous Space Shuttle and Apollo launches, the site's been refurbished by SpaceX and has become its third launch site, after another Kennedy pad and its California facility. SpaceX is also building a facility in the Boca Chica area of South Texas.
Right on schedule, solar arrays have been deployed on @SpaceX #Dragon cargo spacecraft. Watch: https://t.co/mzKW5uDsTi pic.twitter.com/NCqYrCNR7x— NASA (@NASA) February 19, 2017

Hi friends!! I'm so happy I can officially say, Happy Fall!! I hope you were able to check out my fall home tour on my last post. I had so much fun getting my home ready for fall. Sadly, this room was left out of the tour because it was the last to get all decked out. I'm kinda glad though because it gets to have it's own little tour. I love how all the neutral pumpkins and fall decor turned out so let's just say, I saved the best for last!!
Today, I was doing a little cleaning and decided this room needed some fall in it's life. I had recently purchased this jute rug for the room but I just never took the time to put it down. Like I said, this room gets left out sometimes. Something hit me today to freshen things up and make this room pretty again. I put this rug down and it totally changed the look of the room. Sometimes it just takes a new item added to a room to motivate me to change things up.
If you caught my fall home tour, then you will know I recently changed up all of my fall decor over to neutral colors. Whites and greens are the theme I went with. I bought a ton of white and green pumpkins this year and a cart full of eucalyptus leaves. I'm kinda obsessed with them this year. I added some to my table centerpiece along with some white washed pumpkins and a few bottles and books I had laying around. I just threw this centerpiece together in about five minutes. It pays to have lots of extra accessories laying around for moments like this. I especially love the colors! Soft and so so pretty!!
I also added some small vintage books and pinecones to my plates. It's fun to add an unexpected touch to a tables scape. Books are a fun addition to any space! Oh, and antlers. I love me some antlers!
Don't you just love these white, distressed pumpkins? I knew I had to have them. I believe this would be a very easy DIY project. Even though I bought them like this, it would be super easy to do. Maybe next year!
Before this tiny tour ends, I want to draw your attention to this hutch. It's kinda my favorite piece in my entire house. It was my very first piece of distressed furniture I ever purchased, and it pretty much set the tone for how I wanted my house to look. It was the beginning of my chippy, distressed obsession. I especially love the color. I get asked a lot about the color and sadly I have no ideas what color it is because I didn't paint it myself. I wish I could take credit for the beautiful paint job but it wasn't me. It's a perfectly imperfect paint job, and I love it!!
I hope you enjoyed my little dining room tour. I am so glad I finally have all of my fall decor out just in time for fall. This room might be my favorite space that I decorated this season. I guess it was meant to be that I left it out of my fall home tour. It needed it's own attention.
Thanks so much for stopping by. You have no idea how much I appreciate you visiting my blog. It means the world to me that you would take the time to visit. I hope I helped motivate you to add some fall to your own home!! As always, leave a comment and let me know what you think. Have a great day!!

This exhibit highlights the work of Marie Tharp (1920-1986), geologist and oceanographic cartographer. She created the first comprehensive map of the ocean floor and is credited with discovering the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The discovery of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and other ridges and rifts in the ocean helped to prove continental drift, which at the time was considered "scientific heresy" and thought to be impossible. The maps paved the way for the theories of continental drift, seafloor spreading and plate tectonics to become well-established in the scientific world. She weathered criticism from her colleagues and overcame the obstacles of working as a woman scientist during the 1950's. At first when Heezen and Doc Ewing wrote articles about the rift, Tharp was not included in the list of authors, although others said that they couldn't have written those articles or made presentations about it without her work.
She received multiple awards during her lifetime, including the Hubbard Award by the National Geographic Society and the Mary Sears Woman Pioneer in Oceanography Award by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute.

The United Kingdom and United States have told the Security Council they are ready to see sanctions lifted against Libya following the North African country's compliance with United Nations resolutions passed against it in connection with the deadly bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988.
The decision was conveyed to the Council in a joint letter from both countries signed 15 August shortly after Libya informed the 15-member body of its readiness to cooperate in the international fight against terrorism and pay compensation to the families of the 270 people killed in the disaster, as demanded by resolutions 748 of 1992 and 883 of 1993.
"In its letter, the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya has pledged before the Council to cooperate in the international fight against terrorism and to cooperate with any further requests for information in connection with the Pan Am 103 investigation," the letter signed by UK Ambassador Emyr Jones Parry and US Ambassador John D. Negroponte said.
"We expect Libya to adhere scrupulously to those commitments."
The sanctions, which included a ban on military sales and air communications, were already suspended in 1999 after Libya agreed to hand over two nationals for trial before a Scottish court sitting in the Netherlands in connection with the bombing. One of them, Abdel Basset Al-Megrahi, was convicted and jailed for his role.
In his letter to the Council President for August, Syrian Ambassador Mikhail Wehbe, Libyan Ambassador Ahmed A. Own said he was "pleased to inform you that the remaining issues relating to the fulfilment of all Security Council resolutions resulting from the Lockerbie incident have been resolved."

A great collection of her articles on her website,too.....http://www.envisioncap.com/bond-investing-news/index.php?id=...Buy callable, high-yield, short-duration bonds like Clean Harbors. This company transports, stores and disposes of hazardous materials. It is a leader in its market. With the economy growing, Clean Harbors' various business lines will benefit.Clean Harbors' fourth-quarter revenues were up 20% to $417.1 million. Income from operations increased 54% to $43 million. The quarter was as good as all of 2010, and as a result full-year income from operations more than doubled. At year-end the company had cash and securities of $305 million.I like CLEAN HARBORS' 7.625% DUE AUG. 15, 2016 CALLABLE IN 2012 @ 103.813 (CUSIP: 184496AF4). These bonds, rated BB, are priced at 106.5 to yield 5.33% to the 2012 worst call and 6.18% to maturity. Duration is 1.27 years to 2012 and 4.35 years to maturity.If you haven't noticed the ads for cruises lately, you must be reading only the business and sports sections. The cruise business has bounced back despite higher energy prices. Royal Caribbean Cruises ( RCL - news - people ) had a solid 2010, and its new ships are an attraction to cruisers that will continue to drive sales and profits. Bookings are strong, and its fuel hedging greatly helps smooth out the energy-price-hike sting. The company is already over 50% booked for 2011 cruises.Buy ROYAL CARIBBEAN 6.875% DUE DEC. 1, 2013 (CUSIP: 780153AP7), rated BB. The issue size is $350 million. Pay 107.15 for a 4% yield to maturity. Bonds are not callable and have a duration of 2.38 years.As corporate America continues to regain its mojo, so does Arrow Electronics ( ARW - news - people ). This company is in the plain-Jane space of global electronics distribution. It has grown both internally and through acquisitions. The products it distributes include computer systems, peripherals, software and storage products, all worldwide. The business may not be sexy, but it's dependable.Arrow leads the market in components and enterprise computing distribution. With around 2.6 times leverage (including leases) and a comfortable 7.7 times interest coverage, this bond issue represents a good value in a low-yield environment.Buy ARROW ELECTRONICS 3.375% DUE NOV. 1, 2015 (CUSIP: 04273WAA9). These bonds are not callable. Pay 99 for a 3.61% yield to maturity. Duration is 4.13 years. It's hard to swallow, but 3% is truly the new 5% when it comes to corporate bonds with short durations.

Flat Roofs are More Susceptible to Leaks and Reliability Issues than ANY other Roofing System.
Because of this, the expertise that your roofing company can provide is critical.
In the City of Los Angeles, about 1 in 5 homes have a flat roof. And despite their reputation of being leaky and unreliable, they aren't actually as bad as they're made out to be. The real problem with flat roofs lies in a sloppy installation process. Oftentimes, instead of a full repair, a roofer will simply build one roof system over the top of the other to shorten time and labor on the project.
Another common way that roofing companies cut corners (and are able to lower their bid prices) is by only addressing the roof and not taking into account the other components that create the roof system. Intersecting walls, drainage, skylights and air conditioners are all an integral part of the roof system and directly affect its functionality.
The problem with cutting corners like this is that in a short period of time, water gets under the brand new roof and reaches the old roof. Since the holes from the old roof are still present and unprotected, they leak and the consumer can be left thinking that they are still suffering from the same leak despite a brand new roof!
Flat roofs are more susceptible to leaks because of their structure.
This makes it even more important to make sure that you are dealing with a roofing company that is skilled and experienced when working on your roof. Time and experiences of success are the only way to build expertise, and we have 85 years of experience that we bring to the table on every project.
At Hull Brothers Roofing, we offer a wide variety of options that are available for low-sloped or flat roofs. Having 85 successful years in business, we have experience and expertise that simply can't be matched.
