Standard Chartered is cutting 10% of its global corporate and institutional banking headcount, Reuters reports. According to the news agency, the job cuts will be rolled out starting this week across all the bank’s major business in Singapore and Hong Kong.
“We will continue to move investment to where it can generate the greatest returns and focus on the markets which offer the greatest opportunity,” the spokesperson stated.
He added the bank is putting relationship managers at the centre of client relationships, diversifying its client portfolio, and improving processes such as client on-boarding times.
The bank did not comment on the exact nature of the job cuts or the amount of staff affected. In 2015, Standard Chartered announced it would be eliminating 15,000 jobs over the next three years.
Separately, the head of Standard Chartered’s Asean and South Asian operations, Ajay Kanwal, stepped down on Monday after failing to disclose past personal investments. Anna Marrs will assume the role of regional CEO, ASA, in addition to her existing role as CEO, commercial and private banking subject to regulatory approval.
Kanwal joined the bank in 1992. He was appointed head of Asean and South Asian operations in October last year and was based in Singapore.
In a statement issued by the bank he said: “The Bank rightly sets very high internal standards on disclosures for all staff. After careful deliberation I felt that some of my internal disclosures about my historical personal investments in businesses outside the Bank did not meet these very high standards.

This sample set, along with the Black Sheep and Showbiz & A.G. exclusives we dropped a while back, is a jazzy gem. Artists like George Benson, Monk Higgins, Eddie Henderson, Ramsey Lewis, Les McCann, Hubert Laws, and, most frequently, the late Freddie Hubbard, all provide a smooth backdrop for this overlooked west coast classic. Fans of this brilliant throwback will most likely be stoked to discover the sample used on the album's title track. Producer A-Plus snapped up a perfect segment from Billy Cobham's "Heather". But that ain't the half of this set! Now you can enjoy all the fun samples that Del, Domino, Jay Biz, A-Plus & Casual cooked up! Turn it up!!
Hey, not sure if you take requests but any chance of a sample set for The Mouse & The Mask album by DangerDoom? Apart from 2 or 3 tracks ('old school' & 'the mask'), i'm struggling to place some of the samples.
Yo Iv, this is dope. Thanks for putting it together. Can't wait to check these jams out. Keep up the good work.
Man, I was going to get up in this set. Good Drop and what a way to go (disccussing the Super Bowl result)!!!
Truly my most anticipated sample set. THANK YOU for bringing this to life.
is it just me or is part 2 not working?
anyone, can we get this online again ?? | 2019-04-19T04:25:16 | http://www.hiphopisread.com/2009/01/hip-hop-is-read-sample-set-119.html |

Hi, my name is Vít Jedlička and I am 29. I studied at the University of Economics in Prague. Since I was 21 years old, I was the managing director of Hkfree.org - one of the biggest Internet community networks in Czech Republic In the year 2010 I founded the organization Reformy.cz (Mustwatch.eu) We translate the most interesting videos on the Internet. Lately we have celebrated 7 milion views. It is obvious that Czech people are very much interested in what is happening in the world. When economist and my teacher Petr Mach founded a new political party (svobodni.cz) I knew that the time of change was coming. We are proponents of the Austrian School of Economics. We know how to stop debts increasing and bribery. How to stop government inefficiency and to achieve long-lasting prosperity. If I've managed to capture your interest, you'll surely find me on Internet. The Free Citizens Party (svobodni.cz), ally of the United Kingdom Independence Party (Farage) and the Libertarian Party in the USA (Paul, Johnson) Reformy.cz is a subsidiary of the organization Freedom Force International. You can help translate our videos at Mustwatch.eu. | 2019-04-23T20:19:29 | https://dotsub.com/view/b5709def-8277-403c-9023-a4415b37cfbb |
This is just a quick post on Emong's famous Malunggay pandesal (bread). When we visited Legazpi, we were able to try out some pandesal from Emong's Bakery on one fine morning. One small bite was enough to make us all fall in love with this "manna from heaven".... It looks like we don't have a specific address for Shane’s Malunggay Pandesal, which makes giving directions tricky. This business might not have an official storefront, or it might move to multiple locations throughout the day.
I saw them being sold at Kambal Pandesal and the ever so curious me bought a few pieces to try how it taste as my kids love pan de sal and if the taste of Malunggay Pan de Sal gets their approval, I will buy this instead of the regular one.... One of my main goals is to make the recipe as easy to recreate at home as possible. That’s kinda the idea, for us to be able to enjoy homemade pandesal at home! Doesn’t that sound great? I know everyone is busy but I hope you give it a try. Not only will you be eating freshly baked pandesal but the aroma of bread baking in the oven lingers for hours. That to me is a bonus.
The weekdays went so fast, and it’s the weekend again. It’s only a few days left till Christmas, but we know you are all busy attending Christmas parties and gatherings this season.... There are varieties of pandesal you can find like raisin pandesal, whole wheat pandesal, cheese pandesal, and malunggay pandesal. But the best pandesal recipe is the traditional and plain homemade pandesal .
The malunggay leaves are dried, crushed and mixed with the flour to make the pandesal. The malunggay ingredient not only enhances the nutritional value of the pandesal but it also improved its taste. Finally, since one can create sandwich variations of the pandesal, one can also enjoy the nutritional benefits of stuff you put in the pandesal while enjoying its great taste.
On our way home yesterday, I noticed two bakeries selling malunggay pandesal. I just wonder what is the difference about the two. I know malunggay has its health benefits, but aside from this, do you think there is difference between the regular pandesal and the malunggay pandesal? | 2019-04-18T21:18:06 | http://ibeacontrends.com/victoria/how-to-make-malunggay-pandesal.php |
Very much enjoying my “new†vape. Thank you.
upgraded my cupti to the cupti 2. Im rather pleased up to this point (2 weeks or less). no issues as of yet, no leakage, great battery life as it holds 2X rather than 1X the cupti held. I still much prefer the smaller form factor of the cupti 1 as the point was to discreetly vape in the office and not have to carry around a brick in my pocket. The cupti 2 is significantly larger and is heavy. there is no hiding this thing in your pocket, it sticks out. the performance is good and the options are similar to the cupti 1 so all is well on that front. I still very much enjoy the freedom of filling the 10ML tank once in the morning and not having to worry about refilling it until i get home. the convenience is similar to the cupti in that regard. so yeah...if you don't mind the larger form factor (i now just carry it in my bag), it's worth the pennies. | 2019-04-23T12:38:18 | https://www.myvaporstore.com/Kangertech-CUPTI-2-All-in-One-Starter-Kit-p/krnbk60.htm |

Four churches in our diocese celebrate 150th birthdays this year: St. John’s, Sharon; Grace Church, Ridgway; St. Clement’s, Greenville; and Emmanuel, Emporium. We were part of the Diocese of Pittsburgh then. But why did Pittsburgh found four new churches in 1866?
Several reasons come to mind. The Civil War had just ended – in fact, the Diocese of Pittsburgh itself was established only in 1865. It has just celebrated its own 150th.
By that time, the commonwealth and the nation needed new evangelization. According to the U.S. Census, the United States had (in round numbers) 23 million people in 1850; that had grown to 31.4 million by 1860, just before the Civil War. By 1870, the United States would have 38.5 million. Pennsylvania had proportionately more people, too. In 1850, 2.3 million; by 1870, that had risen to 3.5 million, certainly a dramatic increase.
But perhaps the greatest force for growth was Pittsburgh’s first bishop, the Rt. Rev. John Barrett Kerfoot, D.D. Pittsburgh’s historiographer, Joan Gunderson, has researched the period for Pittsburgh’s own anniversary. She points to the bishop’s addresses at the diocese’s first two conventions (1866 and 1867). He called missions “the special work which God has caused me to lead.” Work in Pennsylvania was “urgently needed at once to arrest the sad loss of members of our own Communion coming over from the Church of England and Ireland,” according to Ms. Gunderson especially the many miners who had immigrated to the United States from northern England. Without ministry, “thousands of our own are lost to us yearly.” Not only these immigrants, but the many other unchurched Americans – millions in danger of lapsing to indifference or (to the bishop’s concern) fates such as Mormonism — needed mission work immediately. New churches would need forth new priests. To him, the work was urgent. Its results we see in our four new parishes.
Bob Guerrein is historiographer for the Diocese of Northwestern PA. | 2019-04-25T09:57:19 | https://dionwpanews.org/2016/10/19/1866-the-birth-of-four-churches/ |

From the author of Play Me Backwards and I Kissed a Zombie and I Liked It comes a “narrative brimming with delightfully macabre irreverence” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) about one teen’s unusual summer job as a ghost tour guide in Chicago.
Adam Selzer lived in Des Moines back before it was cool, then tried out a series of small Georgia towns that will probably never be cool before settling in Chicago. In addition to several books on Chicago history and ghostlore, he’s the author of several young adult and middle grade novels, including Play Me Backwards, How To Get Suspended and Influence People (which is part of the ALA’s Banned Books Week packet), I Kissed a Zombie and I liked It, and Sparks (under the name SJ Adams, a Stonewall Honor book for 2013). He has seen Bob Dylan in concert more than forty times, holds a world record for “Most Richard Nixon jokes in a Children’s Book,” and often performs music, both solo and with various bands, at science fiction conventions. Visit him online at AdamSelzer.com.
"Ominous, unsettling, and dripping with snark, Just Kill Me is a delicious dark comedy that will leave readers jumping at shadows and waiting for a knife in the back. The ending still haunts me."
"Just Kill Me is a hilarious punch to the brain. Quirky and full of Chicago ghost history, I raced through the pages to see who would go from murdermonger to good old fashioned murderer. I loved every page!"
"A message to all weird and wonderful morbid kids– you've found your new heroine."
*"Selzer has outdone himself with a narrative brimming with delightfully macabre irreverence, mystery, and the growing pains of self-acceptance."
"Funny, ominous, and infused with a dose of facts about Chicago’s murderous past, appealing for history buffs and wannabe ghostbusters alike." | 2019-04-23T16:10:32 | https://www.simonandschuster.co.uk/books/Just-Kill-Me/Adam-Selzer/9781481434966 |
Based on an historical incident, the play finds the great Russian writer, Fyodor Dostoevsky, in a mess. In addition to promising his publisher a new manuscript, he has also agreed to a serious penalty: if Dostoevsky can't provide the manuscript by a certain date, the rights to all of his works will revert to the publisher, rendering Dostoevsky penniless. So with the deadline looming, his friends decide to hire him a secretary to help him organize his messy writing habits. All are appalled when, expecting a man, the agency sends over Anna Snitkina, who was first in her class with the new fangled skill of stenography. Although an inauspicious beginning, Anna gradually wins over Dostoevsky, helping him not only with his manuscript, but emotionally and romantically as well. | 2019-04-24T02:26:31 | http://www.around505.com/events/1744/the-jewel-in-the-manuscript |

Website |How long Does new website take to rank on search engine .
This is a Question which every website owner, beginner or entrepreneur look around for to judge search engine Algorithm.
How would search engine react while indexing your particular page and how much time a new website takes to rank on the search engine?
If I say its myth that no one knows how Google search engine or other search engine ranks any website or blog to get organic traffic from search engine.
But we still judge Search engine Algorithm that it gives a priority to DA (Domain Authority) and PA (Page Authority) which make sense of ranking factor.
What is the Myth of the website to rank on the search engine?
Mostly we can figure out that new websites ranking get impact from Backlinks.
Yes, High Authority backlinks can make your websites ranking better on the search engine. But it is not sure that creating backlinks can rank your websites on the search engine first-page result.
Do you think that ranking through keyword can rank your website on the first-page result?
My answer is yes, you can rank your website within a year on the Search engine first page or less than in a year. But it not still easy to do and not impossible that you can’t do it.
Here are the explanation and method that how you can rank on search engine. But for that, you need patience and clear about 2 Myth of search engine ranking.
Within a 6 month or year you can rank on the search result.
Within a 2 to 4 week, you can rank on the first-page result.
Choose or target a keyword that has no competitor or low competitor on monthly search volume. And such kinds of keyword ranking improve in search engine top result within a 2 or 4 week.
But such kind of keyword ranking doesn’t provide any type of Authority just you can get the satisfaction that you are ranking on the first page result.
Second Myth- Targeting high competitor keyword.
If you are looking to target any keyword which has a high competitor and high search volume.
Then you have to keep a patience to see your result on the search engine first result it may take 6 months to between 2 years.
It depends on your content and on page SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and off page SEO (Search Engine Optimization).
Because such competitor keyword brings high Authority to your site. If you’re looking to get going your site through earning sources.
Like -Affiliate marketing and ad network etc or your own product to sell, then such kind of keyword become more beneficial for your sites.
And to get ranking on the search engine first-page result for a particular keyword you have to build your site Authority. Like – DA (Domain Authority) and PA (Page Authority).
How to build a DA and PA for your sites?
There are two types of method to build a DA and PA for your sites.
1- You can work hard and Write a great content via targeting particular Keyword, Doing On page SEO and off page SEO (like Social shares) and attract visitor or Audience to visit your sites through your unique content.
2- You can use third-party support Like (Putting email to the competitor for Backlink) or you can say convince other high authority competitors to provide or give a link of your web page on their sites.
Note-able – After getting backlink also you have to do on page and off page SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Here backlink also means off page or you can say it also comes in off page SEO.
Actually, we don’t know the real fact of Search engine that how it works to rank any web page or Websites on the search result.
But we can understand that it always ranks those websites which have some unique quality and details information for a particular keyword.
For the user who is searching for best result on search engine via targeting particular keywords.
Does the search engine take 6 months to between 2 years for every keyword to rank? No, once you build a brand or you may say DA and PA Authority for your websites.
Within a 2 week or 4 weeks you can rank your website blog post on the search engine. Actually, it takes time to rank on the search engine if you have newly website and want it to make a brand.
And that s why most of the professional blogger, Business Analysis, and Digital Marketing Analysis always recommended or give a suggestion to keep patience and improve your website performance.
All result will start in your favors once you start listing on the search engine first-page result.
Does Social Shares impact on search engine ranking?
This is the most genuine fact that social share doesn’t impact on search engine ranking.
but it still has the power to give a signal or you can say show the path to search engine this content has the quality to improve in listing on search engine ranking.
But on the Social share, you have to find out your own Audience related to your product or services to share.
If you don’t target your Audience on social share and share as it is .it may be harmful to your site’s cause of having a bounce rate.
And this is the most common issues which are faced by newbie and looking to increase visitor on their sites.
In this post, I have much more listed the fact that I thought to rank on Search engine. But in Some cases may be I wrong for the Myth of search engine ranking.
Actually, nobody knows that how exactly search engine Algorithm work to rank any websites.
But according to some Digital marketer scientist and research Analysis, the fact of search engine ranking Depends on Detail and brief content for a particular keyword.
For any Query or suggestion feel free to comment on comment section box. And let me know the other fact of Search engine ranking.

Although tropical oceans are a key component of the global climate system, their behavior in the past - even only a few decades ago - remains poorly characterized. Coral skeletons can provide several centuries of continuous paleoclimatic records with weekly to annual resolution. The skeletal oxygen isotope ratio (δ<sup>18</sup>O) is one of the most commonly used coral-based paleoclimatic proxies. The skeletal δ<sup>18</sup>O values reflect a combination of temperature and the δ<sup>18</sup>O of ambient surface seawater, and seawater δ<sup>18</sup>O and sea surface salinity are affected by similar factors. Many calibration studies have sought to validate skeletal δ<sup>18</sup>O as a paleoclimatic tracer and to define the relationship between skeletal δ<sup>18</sup>O, temperature, seawater δ<sup>18</sup>O and salinity. The time resolution of this calibration is increasing; it currently occurs biweekly in the Palau Islands in the tropical Western Pacific. Generally, changes in sea surface temperature and seawater δ<sup>18</sup>O have almost the same effect on changes in skeletal δ<sup>18</sup>O, both temporally and spatially. Local contribution rates of these two factors to skeletal δ<sup>18</sup>O differ owing to regional climatic conditions. Parallel studies of detailed calibrations and an expansion of coral skeletal δ<sup>18</sup>O datasets over the next decade are anticipated to lead to many developments in paleoclimatic understanding.

So I made a topic not long ago at all and I restarted my computer and it turns out it was a much bigger problem than I anticipated. I can't log onto my computer at all and I am now posting from my brother's laptop.
I was just doing what I usually do on my computer when I noticed that my D: drive was missing. My hard drive is separated in the 221GB Packard Bell C: drive and a D: drive of about the same size.
I went to Disk Management and saw that the D: drive wasn't listed while the spade from that partition was still there.
Now I didn't know what to do so I restarted my computer and then I got the error mentioned in the topic title.
Now what the hell do I do? I've researched it and I had two options. Press F8, F5, left SHIFT or CTRL during start up to load up some thingy where you can go through system recovery of some sort and the other option to boot up a Windows 7 CD and fix it that way.
The thing is, I can't do either of these. If I try the former, my Packard Bell iMedia won't respond to either F8, F5, left SHIFT or CTRL. And I didn't get a Windows 7 CD with my computer.
What exactly are my options? What button do Packard Bells need to open up the thingy (not sure, the thingy where it has the option to do stuff safe mode)? And my other question is, how do I make myself a Windows 7 CD to fix my computer?
Your help would be much appreciated, this has kept me up all night from panic and I really need any help possible.
Microsoft Word not opening! HELP!
Has the Ask a Question button moved?

That should do it but you have to get a disc first.
If you can get access to a computer running the same version of Windows 7 (Home Premium/Pro/Ultimate) and the same architecture (32/64 Bit) then you might be able to create a recovery disc or USB with that.
To be honest, having these two issues it sounds like to me like the hard drive is failing.
Try the above first, as that could well fix it.
Even could be worth downloading a Linux distro and booting from it, and seeing if it can read anything from the drive.
Whenever there is a computer problem around here why does everyone automatically assume that it is caused by a failing hard drive? It's ludicrous.
I believe that this problem has been caused by OP trying to get back the missing partition and in the process accidentally messing up the Master Boot Record (MBR), hence the BOOTMGR missing (Missing boot loader) message.
As for the original problem, who knows what caused that to happen.
I hope you did this as all the signs point to an impending hardware failure. Really sorry as I don't think there is much you can do other than replace the drive and try and recover some of the data.
Coupled with his other problem, it is possible.
I did not say anything about your solution because it is also a very likely solution...if it's trying to boot to D, rather than C, it's going to fall over.
If you know what a MBR is, I'm sure you also know a single problem on a computer can be *look* as though it's caused by about 10 different things.
Slow startup...most people assume it's a virus...but it could also be loads of services & programs running at startup. It could be overheating. See what I'm trying to say?
On my earlier thread, I restarted and my computer didn't come back on. I fixed this problem, however using a Windows 7 recovery disk I made. But my partition is still missing.
Edit: Also, do you know a good online backup site? I don't trust myself with important physical things.
I have a free Dropbox 2GB account which does me.
I was just stating that generally in threads where there is an issue with someones computer hardware it seems (to me) like certain people just jump to the conclusion that because their computer is not brand new the hard drive is failing, when as you say there could be many possible causes.
I have seen the slow computer = virus one a few times too now you mention it.

LAURELLE THEODORE, last season’s Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) top goalscorer while representing St Augustine Secondary, netted a hat-trick to lead Trinidad and Tobago to a respectable third spot in the 2014 CONCACAF Under-15 Girls Championship, which ended Sunday night in the Cayman Islands.
Theodore’s strike partner, American-born Raenah Campbell netted two goals, as Trinidad and Tobago won 5-2 over Honduras, in securing team bronze at the end of the tournament. T&T also received two picks on the tournament’s All-Star team-- Germany-based defender/midfielder Amaya Ellis and striker Campbell.
The junior Soca Princesses became just the second female T&T team to finish in the top three of a CONCACAF tournament, following the third-place finish by the senior women’s team at the 1991 CONCACAF Women’s Gold Cup, behind USA and Canada.
Having benefitted from competing against women, in some cases twice their age, in the local Women’s League Football Premier League this season, the junior Soca Princesses are also the first T&T girls youth team to get a top three finish at the level.
Theodore ended the tournament as T&T’s top scorer with five goals, one adrift of the tournament joint Golden Boot winners from Cayman Islands and Haiti. Meanwhile, Campbell scored four goals for T&T, while Alexis Fortune (Canada-born ) and Adanya Phillip both netted twice. Defenders Ellis, Sheneika Paul and Nia Honore also contributed a goal apiece. T&T conceded five goals in their six matches.
The tournament also ended with two Caribbean teams finishing in the top three of a CONCACAF women’s tournament for the first time-- despite Canada beating Haiti 4-2 on penalty kicks to win the final.
Leading from the 47th minute, Haiti paid a price for going ultra defensive in the final ten minutes, only conceding the equaliser six minutes from the end, as the 70-minute regulation period ended in a 1-1 draw. T&T had gone down 1-0 to Canada at the semi-final stage, while Haiti defeated Honduras 2-0.
Campbell scored as early as the fourth minute as Trinidad and Tobago got off to a fast start and Theodore (16th, 20th & 33rd) put in her three in a 17-minute spell giving T&T a 4-0 lead just over the half-hour mark.
Campbell then got a second goal in the 48th minute. Leading 5-0, T&T gave some of the substitutes a run by making four changes, including giving reserve keeper Malaika Dedier a first taste of action in the tournament. Honduras were able to get two late goals from midfielder Lisbeth Bonilla.
Commenting on the tournament, CONCACAF Executive Committee member Sonia Bien-Aime described the standard as very high. She said the regional body were pioneers at the level since football’s world governing body FIFA, as yet, do not have under-15 tournaments.
“It sets the mark and prepares our (CONCACAF) girls for the under-17 World Cup,” Turks and Caicos general secretary Bien-Aime said.

To observe the high standards of integrity expected by the public and Parliament, the proper conduct of public business requires EPSRC Leadership Team (ELT) members to avoid situations in which their duties and other interests conflict or where members of the public might reasonably think that an interest could influence judgement.
This document sets out the principles for managing conflicts arising for those members of ELT seconded into EPSRC on either a full time or part time basis.
All personal and business interests of a seconded individual, which might conceivably conflict with his or her responsibilities as a member of ELT, must be declared and registered and be available to public scrutiny.
"Employees must declare to their manager any financial or non-financial interests that a reasonable person might conclude were in conflict with the interests of the Council. Any such declaration shall be kept on a Register of Interests held locally"
In the context of EPSRC business, a conflict of interest can be defined, for example, in terms of close links with, or an interest in, a particular institution or business from which a grant or other funding application or initiative is being considered, or a private or commercial interest in such an application. In the case of seconded members of EPSRC, this is most likely going to involve the secondee's host employer or key business partner.
From the view of external perceptions, EPSRC should not only manage conflicts well, but should also be seen to be doing so. This means acting conservatively, i.e. where there is any doubt, seconded members of EPSRC should not be involved in decisions, or participate in any discussions that might lead to decisions, about matters in which they might be perceived to have such an interest. The minutes of any such meetings should record any conflict of interest, any withdrawals from the meeting and the reason for the conflicted members return.
All prospective decisions the secondee is required to make that might be considered a conflict will be referred in the first instance and at the earliest possible opportunity to the Director, Programme Delivery, who will decide in consultation with EPSRC, as appropriate, how best the conflict should be managed in tandem with the Associate Director, Governance. This might include reference to an oversight group (see below).
Where EPSRC executive staff are unable to identify a resolution, or where the case requires review by a more senior member of UKRI, it will be escalated to the UKRI Head of Governance in the first instance, or to the Chief Finance Officer if necessary.
Council and Executive Leadership Team (EPSRC), and where appropriate, UKRI discussions, that relate to funding or funding proposals involving their host employer.
Any appointment processes where shortlisted candidates included employees from their host employer.
Discussions related to an EPSRC negotiating position with the host employer, including any related papers or minutes of relevant discussions.
Secondees will not be an applicant or co-applicant on any funding proposal submitted to EPSRC.
Where discussions concern the host employers wider sector, and where other members of the sector might perceive themselves to be adversely influenced by the secondee's affiliation with the host employer, EPSRC will identify and manage conflicts appropriately and on a case-by-case basis. Where a conflict is identified, the Director, Programme Delivery, will decide who should be the EPSRC 'senior responsible officer'.
If staff are in doubt as to how to manage a possible conflict, they should first consult the Director, Programme Delivery.
A log will be maintained of instances where a potential conflict for secondees has been raised, and action either taken or not taken. This will be available to EPSRC Council and would form the basis for example of any media queries or Freedom of Information requests. | 2019-04-24T08:12:22 | https://epsrc.ukri.org/about/standards/managingcoielt/ |
There’s nothing like the hustle and bustle around the holidays. The decorating! The baking! The entertaining! It’s a whirlwind of activity and merriment.
But let’s face it, the most wonderful time of the year can also be stressful…not only for us but for our dogs, too. The unusual sights, sounds and smells, along with a sudden change in routine, can cause seasonal anxiety in our best friends.
So before things kick into high gear, take the following steps now to make sure your pup has a holly jolly holiday!
1. Decorate with your dog in mind.
As you’re decking the halls, look at things from your dog’s point of view. Are there dangling cords or twinkly lights he could chew? Lit candles he could knock over? Tinsel he could swallow? A tree he could knock down? Keep hazardous items well above your pup’s level and/or make certain areas off-limits.
2. Brush up on manners.
If you plan on having guests over the holidays, make sure your dog brushes up on his manners before they arrive. After all, you don’t want him knocking down Great Aunt Edna! So take a few minutes each day to work on basic skills like sit, down, stay and off.
3. Create a safe space.
Whether your dog is a social butterfly or prefers solitude, create a safe space in a quiet area of the house where they can retreat if they get too overwhelmed. Make sure your guests understand and respect your dog’s need for time away from the festivities.
Humans aren’t the only ones tempted by holiday goodies. Dogs love ‘em, too! But certain foods (and especially too much of them) can cause everything from an upset tummy to more serious health issues like pancreatitis. Keep foods far out of your dog’s reach and remind visitors not to share human food without permission. If they just can’t resist those puppy dog eyes, healthy treats formulated just for dogs – like Full Moon’s Artisanal Jerky – are a much better and safer option.
5. Do some trip planning.
Traveling for the holidays? Now is the time to make arrangements for your dog. If you can’t take your pup, start investigating options such as in-home pet sitting or doggie daycare. Whichever you choose, do a few trial runs to familiarize them and reduce stress when the time comes to leave. For those who are able to take their dogs along, call ahead to hotels to find out about pet policies and any associated fees. And be sure to check out this previous Full Moon post for more holiday traveling tips!
Planning now will help ensure that the holidays are merry and bright for you and your four-legged family member! | 2019-04-26T16:43:10 | https://fullmoonpet.com/prepare-your-pup-for-the-holidays/ |

Heart is a place far away from any gaze, scrutinize inspection or any kind of examination. It’s your hidden territory, where you decide rules either to accept or to refuse. Purity of any heart is only known either by the possessor or by the creator. Unfortunately in the midst of daily routine’s hustle we rarely took time to sit and examine our inner strength. Purity that lies deep in is seeking a single uplift. In the center of others filthiness we fear to bring out our pureness. It took a back seat and becomes our subconscious and gradually we forget that precious gift God bestowed us once.
God says: Neither my heaven nor My earth embrace Me, but the heart of My Believing servant does embrace Me.
I am as My servant Thinks (expect).
I expect him as merciful and he will be merciful with me. These simple narrations can make our life so easy. I wonder why I haven’t come across these in my nurture hood. Why we scare a 3 year old child with his wrath, if you will not do it like this Allah will punish you. Why we don’t tell them, have a clean heart and you will find him. We scare them first and then invite them to come closer to his teachings. Let’s not make it a race where you have to get as much deeds as you can. Rather do a deed best enough that become heavier over all. Let’s start it with small tiny steps and then teach them to walk towards Him. | 2019-04-21T19:10:34 | https://thriveglobal.com/stories/simple-yet-powerful/ |

A softener that protects. Gives leather a soft touch.
Especially suitable on leather clothing such as gloves, pants and jackets, and for any color. Tenderly suits all leather that won't put up with greasy, wax-base polishes or any regular leather care product. Particularly, exotic leathers, kid, lambskin.
It will also soften cowhide and more robust leather.
Tenderly and URAD are often used together on furniture or clothing. Either one after the other or preferably mixed together. Apply with the provided sponge. Gently rub in and let dry a few minutes.
• How to care and condition leather jackets?
Furniture, Sofa and Upholstery Leather Part 2 - How to clean and condition leather furniture?
How to break-in or soften leather?
GRASSO deeply and quickly soaks in, moisturizing and softening throughout the full thickness of the leather. Thus, it is an efficient way to help break-in new saddles, boots, baseball gloves etc..
To break-in new leather: Apply thin coats (3 to 5 coats) over a period of about 2 weeks, letting it soak in as much as possible between coats.
When the underside of leather can also be accessed and treated, you can apply a coat of GRASSO to the underside as well. This will usually greatly accelerate the "breaking-in" process.
TENDERLY makes leather more soft to the touch but doesn't do much to help break-in thick stiff leather.
The overuse of GRASSO can tip the scale and turn its advantages into problems. For example, if used every day over a long period, it could make the leather so soft as to lose hold and form.
GRASSO is oil based and can darken some leather (mostly porous leather such as lambskin).
Can I use URAD on lamb skin ?
Generally speaking, NO. Not alone and not on light colors anyway. However, in most other situations, mixing URAD (usually colored Urad) and TENDERLY together can produce miracles and bring back to life a dead jacket!
As always, we suggest you use caution and test it on a less visible area first.
Can Urad be used on alligator or ostrich boots?
Yes, Urad can be used both on alligator and ostrich skins. However, in both cases, there are things to be cautious about. First, these skins have uneven areas where Urad wax can build up. Second, these skins sometimes have both a non-porous thin surface layer and a thicker very porous undersurface layer. The way to avoid possible problems related to these two points is to mix Urad with Tenderly (about half and half) and spread it very thin and very quickly. Because if you spend too long going over one spot, it may wet the porous undersurface of leather too much which can result in your leather becoming darker (noticeable on lighter colored leathers). In short, use Urad and Tenderly mixed together and spread it thin and quickly. The above is what has worked best, with thousands and thousands of boots of testing! However, we have had one case of pink ostrich cowboy boots where using Urad without Tenderly was what worked best! Exceptions do exist so the above advice does not remove the general rule to always perform a test in a less visible area first.
Do you have a product to remove ink stains ?
"Full Grain Aniline" has no protection at all, the ink just goes right in. For that kind of leather, I believe you will need to rub hard, almost scrub it off with one drop of URAD on one tip of the sponge. It's the scrubbing that will do most of the work so YES, there is always a risk the color will not come back completely.
AQUILA: Our leather shampoo called AQUILA can clean fresh ink stains but usually does not do better than URAD. It was made to clean body grease, not ink.
If you do not have the above products at hand, you can try a "Q-tip" with some "Isopropyl Alcohol". (Local pharmacy) Apply with the Q-tip only to the ink spot, at first, do not let sit to long. Wipe with a wet (but not too wet) cloth. If it comes off, repeat. If it does not come off, let the alcohol stand a bit longer. If that does not do it. Use nail polish remover in the same fashion.
P.S. The nail polish remover...can be a delicate operation since it can also take out the leather's dye. Use with caution.
P.S. Prevention tips: spray Sahara stainproofing when new. Then have a jar of URAD handy, just in case someone has the urge to draw a smiley face on your new $5000 sofa!
I think that prevention is worth the money!
If Urad, rubbing alcohol and nail polish remover did not remove the stain, we know if nothing that will.
Costa-Brava(dye):When cleaning does not work, you could try to hide it using URAD with color, which is not a dye but could cover the stain a bit. If you apply Urad with color, use 1 to 2 Tbls of Urad (let's say BLACK) mixed in 5oz of TENDERLY, then apply.
Are there petroleum derivatives in URAD products?
URAD leather cream contains no petroleum derivatives. The only URAD product that does contains petroleum derivative is GRASSO.
Grasso is made of a high concentration of Lanolin held together in a petroleum based gel. | 2019-04-24T22:59:29 | https://www.urad.com/support/faqs.cfm?product=3 |
Capcom and Twitch announced last month that Amazon Prime accounts attached Twitch would get Devil May Cry free at the end of February. For whatever reason, that release was delayed, but has gone live now.
The release is one-third of the upcoming Devil May Cry HD Collection, a remaster of a previous remaster containing the first, second, and third Devil May Cry games. The first game, directed by Bayonetta and Resident Evil 2 director Hideki Kamiya, is the game being given away here.
Devil May Cry was created when a glitch in Resident Evil 4’s firing physics resulted in juggling enemies in the air, prompting Kamiya and Resident Evil 4 director Shinji Mikami to spin the glitch off as the basis of DMC’s iconic bullet juggling. Director Hideaki Itsuno took over the series with Devil May Cry 2 midway through the project, and from scratch on the third game.
The full DMC HD Collection will release on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on March 13. | 2019-04-21T06:26:54 | http://www.gamezoomedia.com/2018/03/06/devil-may-cry-pc-free-on-twitch-prime/ |

A man’s skin is quite different from a woman’s but still the need for cleansing, hydration and special care, especially after shaving, is equally important. So, here we are recommending some all natural homemade aftershave recipes for men to relieve irritation, cleanse their skin properly and balance its oil production.
All the recipes can be easily prepared at home with all natural ingredients that you can find in health shops or even some pharmacies. These naturally soothing aftershave remedies for men will provide you with solutions for cleansing, moisturizing and dealing with aftershave skin irritation.
Everyday shaving can affect the skin negatively, removing the hydrolipidic film, which is responsible for retaining moisture in the skin, and leaving it vulnerable to various skin deteriorating factors such as extreme cold. This can lead to the skin becoming dry or even dehydrated.
To prevent loss of hydration after shaving or cleansing your skin, you can use a good quality moisturizing cream that is free of alcohol and harsh synthetic ingredients. In the morning, you can go for a moisturizer with sunscreen for further protection.
Mix 20 ml of grape seed oil with 10 ml of coconut oil and then add the following essential oils: 3 drops of cedar, 2 drops of lemon and another 2 drops of vetiver.
You can use this natural moisturizing oil every night after cleansing your skin with a proper cleanser.
While coconut oil protects the skin from loss of hydration and makes it softer and better balanced in terms of oil production, grape seed oil is good for restoring collagen and helping your skin deal with wrinkles and fine lines.
The cedar essential oil is soothing and the lemon works both as a light exfoliator and an antibacterial agent.
Men’s skin has bigger sebaceous and sweat glands than women’s, resulting in more oiliness and sweat. This means that cleansing is an essential part in a man’s skin care routine.
Inadequate cleansing can lead to problems such as oily face, blackheads and even pimples but bad cleansing with a poor quality cleanser can even cause skin irritation and acne breakouts.
So, get a good quality natural cleanser and wash your face with it every morning and night using lukewarm water. If you shave in the morning, you don’t need to use the cleanser for the chin, cheeks and neck but only for your forehead since shaving works as an exfoliator.
Once the mixture becomes foamy, add the following essential oils: 2 drops of lime (for dry complexions) or 2 drops of tea tree (for oily complexions.) Save the mixture in a glass bottle and use it daily.
While the tea tree essential oil has antiseptic properties, the lime has hydrating qualities.
It is a fact that shaving can often be followed by some negative effects such as skin irritation, redness and even pimples on the area of the face and the neck.
There is a number of reasons why you may experience those effects such as using old blades or shaving against the grain as well as shaving too often. Men with sensitive skin can be even more prone to those skin problems.

The movie from C3 Entertainment, which owns the Three Stooges brand, centers on the trio of beloved characters as 12- and 13-year-olds.
The Three Little Stooges Movie has found its Larry, Moe and Curly.
The comedic family film, from Three Little Stooges Productions in conjunction with C3 Entertainment, which owns the Three Stooges brand, centers on the trio of beloved characters as 12- and 13-year-olds.
Liam Dow has been cast as Little Larry, Gordy De StJeor as Little Moe, and Luke Clark as Little Curly. This is the first leading role in a feature film for all three. Casting Directors Joey Paul Jensen CSA and Niner Parikh (Camp Cook Kids, Soul Surfer,That’s So Raven) conducted a nationwide search to find the trio.
The screenplay for the live-action film was written by Harris Goldberg (Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, The Master of Disguise), with Sean McNamara (Even Stevens, Spare Parts, Soul Surfer) eyed to direct. International sales agent The Exchange has signed on for foreign sales of the film, which is set to go into production in the fall.
In addition, the production team has launched a Reg CF campaign through First Democracy VC’s equity crowdfunding portal, which was formed through a partnership between MicroVentures and Indiegogo. Funds from the campaign, which is set to close later this summer, will be used to fund part of the production.
The Three Stooges have starred in more than 200 film shorts, feature films, TV and stage shows. The new movie follows C3 Entertainment’s 2012 film The Three Stooges Movie, from the Farrelly brothers and starring Sean Hayes, Will Sasso and Chris Diamantopoulos as the Stooges.
Dow, managed by Mark Robert, played Steve in the DreamWorks’ web series OMG! Just Jacque and will appear in the upcoming teen comedy The Perfect Night.
De StJeor has appeared in numerous commercials, music videos, TV and films as a break-dancer, actor and musician. He is repped by The Savage Agency.
Clark plays Kyle in the Jennifer Arnold (Dear White People) comedy movie Fat Camp and is repped by Clear Talent Group.
C3 brought out the last Three Stooges movie in 2012 with Fox Studios. C3 continues the great comedy legacy of The Three Stooges with film distribution deals for the new film with The Exchange.
The new Three Little Stooges will be based on 12-year old Larry, Moe and Curly in a hilarious new live-action family film featuring all the madcap comedy of little Larry, Moe and Curly, from an original screenplay written by Harris Goldberg (Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, The Master of Disguise).
Casting Director Joey Paul Jensen, C.S.A., has commenced a nationwide search to find little Larry, Moe and Curly. Production is scheduled to begin in early 2017 in Atlanta, Georgia. C3’s Earl Benjamin and Robert Benjamin will executive produce, together with The Exchange CEO Brian O’Shea. C3’s Director of Development & Production, Pablo Velez, Jr. will serve as Producer.
The Exchange will present the film to international exhibitors worldwide. C3 Entertainment’s licensing division will handle merchandising and promotional tie-ins for the new film.
“The Three Stooges are iconic, and on the level of such global comedy brands like Police Academy, Pink Panther, and Mr. Bean, it is truly exciting to bring this project to the international marketplace,” said O’Shea. | 2019-04-23T06:24:01 | http://www.threestooges.com/movie/the-three-little-stooges-movie/ |

Ice Cream Float of the Month: Blueberry!
I’m still obsessed with ice cream floats these days, and this blueberry float is one I’ve tried that is not only refreshing and delicious, but also so very lovely to look at. I think you could serve it as a fancy dessert at a dinner party. Or, more to my habit, just have it by yourself on a hot afternoon. Plus, in June the blueberries should be in season.
2. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
3. Add the fresh or frozen blueberries.
4. Garnish with a sprig of mint.
5. Drink with a straw!
*IZZE sodas are made with 70 percent fruit juice, sparkling water, and no added sugar, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors, and no caffeine, either.
Plus, blueberries are really good for you, so eat ’em or drink ’em up!
May’s Float of the Month: Coffee!

A handful of photos from our collection of Machu Picchu pictures. From leaving Cusco and arriving in Aguas Calientes to start our journey to Machu Picchu in the early hours. We documented most of the journey in these photos and were fortunate to arrive at the sight early enough to watch the clouds clear as the incredible UNESCO World Heritage site came into view. Here’s my photos and a little more Machu Picchu.
Book your Peru Rail tickets early and arrive into Ollantaytambo on time to board the train.
Shuttle busses leave from most tour operators and travel agents in Cusco. The route is nice and most bus drivers will happily pull over to take a few photos.
Prepare for the possible onslaught of begging in Ollantaytambo, many children begged at tables on restaurants. The communities surrounding Machu Picchu thrive on tourism.
Book a night in Ollantaytambo for your return journey. Don’t just pass through Ollantaytambo, why not spend the night and visit the ruins of Ollantaytambo or some of the other archaeological sites in the area.
Take a rain poncho or waterproof jacket and hiking boots to Aguas Calientes. During our time in Aguas Calientes it rained for the majority of the time we spent here. It was only actually clear on the day we visited Machu Picchu.
Remember in February the Inca Trail is closed – plan your trip around this time if you have no plans to trek the Inca Trail, if you do plan to trek the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu then plan your trip to miss February.
Carry small change. Service charges are almost always charged in Aguas Calientes, carry change to avoid being caught short in this instance.
Don’t forget to charge your phone and camera overnight. The last thing you want is travelling up to Machu Picchu and not being able to take photos. If you’re looking to take the perfect picture at Machu Picchu? Check out the Longest bus ride for tips and advice.
If you’re struggling to find out how to get to Machu Picchu from Aguas Calientes or how to get from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes, check out my first post on visiting Machu Picchu for tips, tricks and advice.

Check out the best running shoes for women, including kicks from Adidas, Nike, Asics, and many more.
Whether you’re training for a big race or scoping out a new brunch spot, Health’s senior fitness editor, Rozalynn S. Frazier, has the shoes for you. Below, her top picks for running shoes that will take you from the road to the trail to the gym and beyond.
Speed drills, 5Ks—when you need to be quick and nimble, slip on the Reebok Fusion Flexweave. The combo of plush cushioning and a flexible build helps you stay super speedy. We particularly love this chic berry hue, which is great for fall runs.
Have bunions, or just wider feet? You’ll never feel cramped with the wide toe box on the Altra Torin 3.5 Knit. This style is also good for those with neutral to underpronation.
We've raved about the original Levitate, and the Brooks Levitate 2 has an equally impressive, bouncy sole that will propel you forward, plus some newer features, such as a knitted ankle collar that really secures you and soft foam Achilles Guard to protect your Achilles tendon. This style is also ideal for runners with medium to high arches.
The water-resistant Under Armour HOVR CG Reactor shoes stand up to the elements (rain, snow, sleet). Even cooler: They connect via Bluetooth to the MapMyRun app to help you keep track of your miles.
This lightweight, earth-friendly Asics DynaFlyte 3 Sound option uses recycled plastic for the upper and wood pulp for the midsole. Nice! And although the style is ultra-lightweight, it also works for those who prefer extra support, thanks to full-length gel cushioning.
With outsoles made from mountain-bike rubber, great grip is a given on the Adidas Outdoor Terrex Two GTX. Plus, we love the no-fuss pull-tab laces.
Antimicrobial properties help keep not-so-nice scents (read: stinky feet!) under wraps on the Merrell Agility Synthesis Flex.
Multidirectional lugs enhance stability on uneven surfaces so you don’t lose your footing with the Saucony Xodus ISO 3.
With these The North Face Women’s Ultra Fastpack III GTX kicks, a woven upper helps derail debris and keeps water out while you navigate tricky terrain.
The sole’s pivot point on the Rykä Vivid RZX makes turning super easy, ensuring you stick even the most complex moves.
A knitted upper paired with a wide, flat heel provides major stability during studio classes with the Nike Free TR Flyknit 3. The supercool colorways don't hurt, either.
Tory Sport’s first performance shoe, the Tory Sport Sock Performance Sneaker, doesn’t disappoint. Strategically placed straps across the midfoot of this knitted stunner lock you down.
The heel cap on the On Cloud X has molded pads to help keep your foot in place so you feel more confident during box jumps, burpees, and beyond.
The Puma Defy sneak is designed to lend stability—no matter what your sweat session entails.
APL's monochromatic, sleek silhouette is a fave among fashionistas, and the APL Techloom Breeze is no exception.
Forget fumbling with laces; this slip-on Keds Studio Jumper makes getting your sneaks on and off a breeze.
Want a running shoe that functions well for long walks? Opt for the Skechers Ultra Flex Statements. A memory-foam insole that molds to your feet ensures you stay comfy, and it scores major style points, too.
Springy foam cushioning on the New Balance Fresh Foam Cruz Nubuck makes everyday walks feel like heaven, and a leather upper adds a luxe feel. | 2019-04-25T22:40:03 | https://www.health.com/fitness/best-running-shoes-for-women |
I was recently engaged in a debate among acquaintances about patents. Some - like most of my acquaintances - feel that patents foster innovation by granting special rights to innovators. I, on the other hand, oppose patents on grounds that are moral, economic, and philosophical. Perhaps I have spent too much time in the libertarian vortex, because I had nearly forgotten that this is a controversial issue. Indeed, when I first started blogging, I myself was undecided on the issue.
Part of my indecision was the major shortcomings of the Rothbard-oriented arguments against intellectual property. My opinion on those shortcomings still stands, and regular, attentive readers already know that my position on Rothbard in general is one of extreme criticism.
Nevertheless, the notoriety of Stephan Kinsella's Against Intellectual Property speaks for itself: His work has made a major impact on the world's view of copyrights in general, and nothing I say can take that away from what is obviously an important work on the subject.
While his argument is primarily philosophical, I'd like to put forth a more practical set of arguments against patent legislation, and eschew as many Robinson Crusoe arguments as I possibly can. What follows is an attempt to do just that.
There is no evidence to support the claim that patents actually succeed at being reliable incentives for innovation.
Patent protection does not offer disproportional benefits to smaller firms relative to big ones.
It is, in fact, patent protection that allows a firm to grow so large as to impede the progress of smaller firms in the first place.
If I succeed, then I will have made a robust case for why the patent system is a net burden on society, and that we would all be better off if it were eliminated entirely.
In order to properly argue against the patent system, we must first understand what its supposed benefits are. According to (the remarkably forthcoming) James Yang, the benefits of patents are: (1) Higher profit margins via market exclusion; (2) Reduced competition via barriers to entry; (3) Incentive to financially settle disagreements rather than litigate; and (4) Expanded market share via patent licensing agreements.
Of course, all of this must be understood in the context of the core claim that patents protect small, start-up investors by allowing them exclusivity while they build their businesses.
A final claim about the patent system is that it provides incentives to innovate. This is the first claim I will attempt to address.
The innovation claim is remarkable in that there is absolutely no evidence to support it. More remarkable still is the fact that major advocates of patents - such as law firms, consultants, and government patent offices - never even mention innovation as a major incentive.
We don't live in a world without patents; patents are the status quo. Any claim that innovation would decrease in absence of patent protection is pure speculation. Therefore, my challenge as a patent critic is to address a non-falsifiable claim for which there is no evidence. Because that is impossible, I am going to focus on the best case patent advocates can make in favor of innovation: pharmaceuticals.
The argument goes that developing pharmaceutical products is such a lengthy (15-20 years sometimes) and expensive process that pharma companies would be unable to do so without their having patents to protect their resources as they develop their drugs. This claim can only be true if one or both of the following conditions are true: (1) Brand pharmaceutical companies require patent protection during the drug development phase, and/or (2) Brand pharmaceutical companies require monopoly profits to compensate them for the development phase.
To the first point, patents are wholly unnecessary for drug development. Regulations mandate that every pharmaceutical product must be thoroughly tested and demonstrated as safe and effective prior to being taken to market. This means that, during the development phase, no company could ever profit from "stealing" any other company's intellectual property without having to undergo clinical research and regulatory navigation. In short, the cost of bringing a stolen patent to market is identical to the cost of bringing a legitimately owned patent to market.
Given the above evidence, which deals with the industry that supposedly profits most from a robust patent system, I contend that it is fully unreasonable to claim that patents are required for product innovation in that or any other industry.
Finally, Bessen and Meurer have shown that "the patent system discourages investment in innovation by the average publicly traded American firm."
Having dealt with what I believe to be the most difficult argument in favor of patents, I now turn my attention to the other arguments I listed above. Let's quickly review the pro-patent argument.
Advocates state that patent protection helps the "little guy" by offering the little guy (1) higher profits from exclusivity, (2) greater market share from barriers to entry, (3) a pro-settlement/anti-litigation environment, and (4) access to an expanded market share via patent licensing.
First, let us acknowledge that (1) and (2) are really two ways of saying the same thing. Patent owners earn higher profits because they are the only ones entitled to sell their products. Thus, as monopolists, their market share is obviously 100% and they may charge higher prices free from worrying about competition.
Second, let me make clear that I dispute none of the above claims. They are factual benefits of patent ownership.
The assumption in all of the above, however, is that the patent owner and the "little guy" are the same person. In other words, every benefit of patent ownership is as true for the "big guy" as it is for the "little guy." There is nothing intrinsic in the benefits of a patent that default the scenario in favor of the "little guy."
The "patents protect the little guy" viewpoint took a decided hit on August 24th, when Apple became both the largest company in the history of the world and the recipient of the largest punitive patent settlement in the history of law. For my money, no further remarks are necessary for showing that patent law primarily protects behemoth corporations.
The "little guy" often sells his patent to the "big guy" long before the two ever choose to compete. This is because it is often more profitable to the little guy to sell the rights to his invention outright than to attempt to build a business around it. In these instances, the "big guy" is no worse off than if he had simply stolen the technology and had subsequently been forced to recompense the inventor in a court settlement ex post facto. In fact, this phenomenon is known among economists as the Coase Theorem, named after Nobel laureate Ronald Coase.
The above point deals with supposed patent benefit (3), above, too. Whether a patent is legitimately purchased by the big guy or a compensatory agreement is reached later on, the "little guy" is always out-matched. A larger firm will always have greater access to legal resources than a smaller one; therefore, if a "big guy" really intends to steal a patent, the "little guy" is no better protected in an environment in which he cannot afford equal access to the legal system than he would be if there were no patent issue at all.
Bessen and Meurer furthermore have it that "patents also impose expected costs on innovators as defendants in litigation."
Therefore, patent ownership is not a "strict win." It is a win with conditions, a win with costs. One can only reap the benefits of a patent if one has sufficient financial means to defend one's patent in the first place.
Perhaps the most important reason why patents are bad for "the little guy" (and for the consumer) is that it is only through patent protection and corporate welfare that a company can grow so large as to defeat the little guys in the first place.
Absent a patent monopoly, any little guy could copy a product and sell it at a cheaper price (assuming that little guy could capture sufficient economies of scale to do so). If the large firm truly is a coercive monopolist, then it is possible for the large firm to sell the product at a loss for a while, until the "little guy" is out-competed. This, of course, is the very fear held by patent advocates.
It is possible for that to occur for a while. But, in real-world circumstances, we are no longer talking about a single "little guy" up against a single "big guy." When forced to compete against myriad little guys, the large firm cannot possibly sell a product at a loss long enough to put every little guy out of business. It is an economic fact that, with a sufficient number of competitors, no one company however large or small can sell a product for anything other than the equilibrium price in the long run.
Indeed, it is only through monopoly protection that a company can avoid competing with other firms. Thus, it is this very patent protection that enables a firm to grow sufficiently large as to be able to obstruct the "little guy's" market.
The innovation incentives of patent law are, at best, highly over-stated with little evidence to support them; and they are, at worst, entirely false and baseless claims.
All direct financial benefits to patent holders apply equally to large firms and small firms, therefore patents offer no disproportional benefit to "little guys."
The largest single beneficiary of patent legislation also happens to be the largest corporation in the history of the known universe.
Large companies only grow as large as they grow because they hold legally enforceable monopolies that enable them to exclude competitors from the marketplace; absent that legal protection, no firm would ever grow so large - and even if it did, the long-run outcome would be equivalent to the purely competitive market. | 2019-04-23T16:30:25 | http://www.stationarywaves.com/2012/09/a-case-against-patents.html |

At the end of the credit crunch, our client’s strategy focused on developing a number of new service lines and improving poorly performing business units within the advisory space. This strategy was cross border and aimed reducing the firm’s reliance on Audit fees. Our client retained us to help build a Forensic Service line within a northern European country.
The initial requirement was to identify a Partner with the track record and gravitas, combined with relevant language and technical skills, to build this major new business offering. To expand our addressable market, our search also included relevant international markets from where this candidate could potentially relocate.
Our search yielded a strong shortlist from which the successful candidate was identified. Our in-depth profiling revealed that whilst they were currently with a rival firm and not actively looking for a new role, they were strongly motivated by the opportunity to assume a Leadership position, such as was on offer with our client. The hiring process took six months and was completed in time to add immediate value in the new financial year. Having successfully driven new revenue to the business, the successful candidate has subsequently used Integral to assemble a team of Forensic professionals who have contributed in excess of $3million in the second year of trading.
The Integral difference: Our international reach and knowledge of adjacent markets produced a strong shortlist, whilst detailed candidate profiling revealed the key motivations that were essential in gaining initial interest from the successful candidate. | 2019-04-25T14:52:49 | http://www.integralsearch.com/rare-skills-require-cross-border-thinking/ |
FRANKLIN, TN — There’s a shortage of trained skilled workers for builders and contractors, according to employers and associates here for a construction manager’s open house.
It’s not just because of Middle Tennessee’s building boom. It’s the aging of skilled construction workers, continuing effects of the housing bubble burst, the recession and cautious bankers when loaning money.
Jobs were discussed at the “meet & greet” hosted by DeAngelis Diamond’s Nashville-area office near Williamson Medical Center. Workforce diversity was addressed without hesitation in social conversation.
“We have a diverse workforce,” said Andy Mitchell, president of his Knoxville-area company. “We have Hispanics, African-Americans and a few Caucasians.” It’s a blunt, good-humor answer about the labor market.
Hosting April 20 was Josh Rhodes, division manager of DeAngelis Diamond’s Nashville-area office. He found “contractors who will definitely be receiving invitations to pursue projects” with the Naples, Fla.-based business’ Franklin office. It opened in October.
Gipson Mechanical Contractors’ employees are “in the finishing stages” at Austin Peay State University’s Art & Design Building and Trahern Building renovation with Turner Construction and hangar construction with Messer Construction at Nashville’s airport.
Gipson’s decade in Nashville is backed by 25 more years for the firm headquartered in Memphis. Gipson graduated from Middle Tennessee State University in December. He and a classmate, Raul Yepez of Hillwood in West Nashville, studied commercial construction management.
Originally from Venezuela, Yepez is available since working with a company that wanted him to relocate. His wife and 2-month-old daughter prompted him to stay in Nashville.
“There is a new contractor in town,” Yepez said of DeAngelis Diamond. “There are opportunities. It’s all about networking” at events like the open house.
Yepez knows Nashville needs affordable workforce housing, but his conversation didn’t include the law of supply and demand. Labor shortages imply increased wages.
DHan James, Middle Tennessee regional director of Associated Builders and Contractors Inc., Nashville, said the industry needs more skilled and trained construction workers, so ABC’s Greater Tennessee Chapter coordinates training.
ABC started Go Build, a campaign to recruit employees.
ABC wants to resume its masonry workers program.
“There’s so much work in this area, we need more” workers, she said. “Contractors are willing to teach a job working with your hands.” They want people with good work ethics. Arrive on time. Do good work.

Riyad Mahrez has assured Manchester City fans that the team can overturn their 1-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium next Wednesday.
The Citizens have all to play for in the return leg of the Uefa Champions League quarter-final tie after Heung-Min Son struck with a left-footed shot in the 78th minute to give Spurs an advantage.
Within the first 15 minutes of the encounter, Sergio Aguero missed a chance to put the visitors ahead at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium after seeing his effort from the penalty spot saved by Hugo Lloris.
After Son's opener, Manchester City struggled to net an equaliser and had to settle for a defeat, however, Mahrez who was in action for 89 minutes in the encounter is confident that they can bounce back and make it to the last-four stage with a win at home.
"Not the best night but we can do it at home. Come on Man City," Mahrez wrote on Instagram.
Not the best night but we can do it at home 🙏🏻✊🏻 come on @mancity !!!
Mahrez who was drafted in for injured Bernardo Silva struggled to find his feet in the first half of the encounter but returned with an improved composure after the restart.
His performance made Guardiola singled him out for praise despite the lack of support in some moments during the game.
"In the second half, he [Mahrez] was really good. In the first half, he was isolated when he had the ball he did not have support in actions two-against-one and one-against-one," Guardiola was quoted as saying by Manchester Evening News.
"When David [Silva] and Sergio [Aguero] moved to the left side there was a problem but he was aggressive and he delivered good crosses.
"We are going to put more people in the box next game - or maybe not, We will see!
"In general, my feeling is the team was so solid. We concede few chances and the team was able to create a lot of chances.
"I know how good they play long balls, second balls when they attack. They are a team who play more with transitions and more with physicality because they are strong, and we played so good.
"Now it is time for rest and recovery and next Wednesday at the Etihad Stadium I invite all of you." | 2019-04-25T14:30:47 | https://www.goal.com/en-ph/news/riyad-mahrez-assures-manchester-city-fans-after-tottenham/1uvhzj70qni4813r0gj32t1fp2 |

The 52nd Fighter Wing’s geographically separated units are of paramount importance to the mission; visits to these GSUs allows leadership to highlight the important purpose shouldered by each and every person serving at the GSU, while reviewing the mission progress.
U.S. Air Force Col. Jason Bailey, 52nd FW commander and Chief Master Sgt. Alvin Dyer, 52nd FW command chief, visited 52nd Operations Group, Detachment 2, on Mirosławiec Military Air Base, Poland, January 29, 2018. Bailey and Dyer also visited 52nd OG, Det. 1 on Łask Air Base, Poland, January 30, 2018.
Det. 1 was established in 2011 and currently has a small contingent of Airmen serving there; Det. 2 was established in 2018 and has about 75 Airmen and contractors. Both locations have been a tremendously successful collaboration between U.S. and Polish air forces, Bailey said.
Dyer observed the accomplishments made by those at Det. 2 because the personnel there understand the mission and have a clear sense of purpose.
For the Polish forces at Mirosławiec MAB, the presence of U.S. personnel is welcomed and has resulted in a cross-cultural experience.
Meanwhile at Łask Air Base, U.S. Air Force members at Det. 1 are preparing for several cooperative exercises with their Polish allies.
The progress made by members of Det. 1 impressed Dyer during his visit.
Visits to the GSUs of the 52nd FW are important both for morale purposes and to allow leadership to firsthand observe the accomplishments made by American personnel.
For both locations, the Polish government has been monumental in ensuring members of the 52nd OG are successful.
The spirit of the Airmen at both locations is an important factor to their success and it was impressive to 52nd FW leadership.
The capabilities and individuals at both detachments are making great strides in building important partnerships and ensuring national security.
“The biggest thing is to never lose sight of those tremendously important capabilities, and as importantly, those folks that we have, significant members of the Saber Nation out doing amazing things, having strategic impacts at our locations around Europe and in this case, talking about Poland, doing just an amazing job working with our partners and everyday doing great things for America,” Bailey said. | 2019-04-23T14:57:54 | https://www.mildenhall.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/1751997/52nd-fighter-wing-command-team-visit-det-1-2/ |
These photos of the Sopwith Dolphin were taken by Francis Chapman at the RAF Museum, Hendon. My many thanks and appreciation to Francis for sending these photos to David Wilson who in turn passed them on to me and gave me permission to use them on the forum.
Some beautiful shots for the AMS inflicted amongst us.
An outstanding assortment of nicely detailed photos there and a huge thanks from me as well. The cockpit detail photos are especially useful.
I just hope Wingnuts has added this wonderful machine to its "to do" list? Fingers crossed!
Very nice spread, in fact outstanding! I'm with Dave, hopefully the good folks at WNW will have this on their "to do" list sooner rather then later. Many Thanks to Francis for providing them and Thank You Des for the post; great stuff!

Within the British School of Bucharest community, we encourage and support our students to take an active role in community service projects and a variety of fundraising activities. By helping others, our pupils develop their own social awareness and learn to take initiative in supporting the community.
A Romanian charity that supports Romanian children and families in need and prevents child abandonment.
A British charity established in 1986 by a group of professionals to develop relief, medical and humanitarian programmes in Eastern Europe.
A domestic abuse and family homelessness charity working in Bucharest.
A charity working in Romania and the Republic of Moldova that provides a support programme for children and teenagers with cancer.
Many students commit to weekly community service at Don Orione or Fundatia Inocenti through our co-curricular after-school programme. Alongside these community-focused activities, the British School of Bucharest community also raises money and collects clothes, toys and food to support these local charities with a variety of activities throughout the year.
We organise several whole-school fundraising projects, including a recent drive to build a well with Water Aid and the annual awareness-raising Jeans for Genes Day. Secondary students also often plan their own fundraising events. This is sometimes as part of their qualification for the Duke of Edinburgh Award but more often because they want to do more to support specific causes or charities alongside their learning of the British Curriculum within an international community in Bucharest. | 2019-04-23T16:47:10 | https://britishschool.ro/bsb-community/charity |
Sexual exploitation is a form of sexual abuse, in which a young person is manipulated, or forced into taking part in a sexual act. This could be as part of a seemingly consensual relationship, or in return for attention, affection, money, drugs, alcohol or somewhere to stay. The young person may think that their abuser is their friend, or even a boyfriend or girlfriend.
The abuser may physically or verbally threaten the young person or be violent towards them. They will control and manipulate them, and try to isolate them from friends and family. It happens to boys and young men as well as girls and young women. The victims of abuse are not at fault. Abusers are very clever in the way they manipulate and take advantage of the young people they abuse.
Many sexually exploited young people have been ‘groomed’ by an abusing adult who befriends the young person and makes them feel special by buying them gifts or giving them lots of attention. Young people may be targeted on-line or in person. Young people who are having difficulties at home, regularly go missing or have experienced care may be particularly vulnerable.

Why is my part so expensive?
One of the best ways to reduce machining time is through your design. To help you reduce costs, we have created an infographic with 6 simple time saving tips that wont effect your parts performance or efficiency, but will reduce how much you pay to machine your parts.
1.) Thin Walls: The Thinner the wall the more time it takes to machine. Thin walls are delicate and can break at any time during machining or after.
2.) Tight Tolerances: The Tighter the tolerance the more time it takes to machine. Anything under .005 requires more machine time as well as inspection time.
3.) Holes: Holes with blind intersections and multiple GD&T location features take time to machine and inspect. Make sure you use correct GD&T when designing your parts.
4.) Material Choice: Avoid choosing over engineered materials for your application. Use a material that will work based on the requirements.
5.) Finishes: The lower the finish the higher the costs. Also, it Is important to remember not all material is capable of achieving the finish you want.
6.) Quantity: The higher the volume the lower the costs. Small quantities require minimum buys on machine time, materials, and outside processing.

The 2-pcs screw closure is suitable for PET and PE bottles with 28mm neck finish. A slit band, which brakes reliable with first opening, provides superior tamper evidence. The closure is featured with a child resistant system protecting small children from use. Tight seal is achieved with an EPE liner.
The 2-pcs Thumb'Up sports closure fits onto a 30/25 PET neck finish. The PE made pourer is equipped with a bore seal and a molded tamper evidence band is assuring the integrity of the product. The PP made overcap is secured with a tear-off tamper band and has a 180° hinge to keep the overcap away for the cheek during drinking. The hinge withstands more than 80 Nm before it breaks.
The 3-pcs push-on closure with a co-injected liner is used for water cooler containers (3, 5 and 6 gallons) made out of PC or PET is compatible to the most of the bottle necks. The sealing compound assures tight sealing of the container. A plug inside the closure contributes to non-spilling, when the container is put on the cooler device. A label, glued on the top of the VALVE LOCK closure protects against dirt in the aperture and serve as tamper evidence as the same time.
BERICAP has developed the e-smoCap™, a childproof closure that makes it easier for millions of people throughout Europe to refill their e-cigarettes.
The closure has ISO 8317 CRC certification from the Laboratoire National d'Essais, which is supervised by the French government. A sealing strip ensures that it is tamper-proof, thus providing protection and security for end consumers. There is a long, narrow drip nozzle inside the closure for easy refills.
In order to protect refills from being adulterated or tampered, all closures have a folded and slit tamper evidence band (TE) which is extremely difficult to manipulate and provides visual evidence in the form of broken bridges if the closure has been opened.
Other safety options are customer-specific closure designs, possibly complemented by an additional security label fixed across the closure body and TE band, or the use of laser technology enabling, for example, the company name to be lasered across the TE band and closure, even on uneven surfaces.
BERICAP has developed a special counterfeit protection system using a Laser Print where e.g. a logo can be printed on the side of the closure including the closure body and the TE band. Printing on uneven surfaces is no problem. As soon as the closure is opened, the security strip breaks and the logo is "destroyed", making it obvious that the bottle has already been opened.
Developing new closures for a new light 29/25 or 26/22 PET neck resulted in weight savings for closure and neck of 33% compared to their predecessors.
However, the new closures were low in (grip)height – only 11 and 10.5mm – making it awkward for the consumer to open the closures.
The new caps are virtually of the same weight but look more substantial and are now easier for customers to handle.
All HexaLite® closures have a slit and folded TE band with bridges that breaks easily the first time the bottle is opened. N2 dosing is feasible.
The 29/25 and 26/22 neck types are approved by CETIE.
ThumbUp Crystal is available for the PCO 1881 and the 29/25 neck.
After 2 years of development and testing, Bericap Hungary has successfully introduced an extremely light 28mm PCO1881 flat closure in the market. The closure has been developed for the still water market and saves another 14% weight compared to its predecessor. Besides for still water, the closure can also be used for non-carbonated soft drinks. The closure has been validated with 1.2 bar relative overpressure in the headspace generated by N2 dosing.
Customers, already using the BERICAP CSD closure #7103 can use this new light weight still water closure on the same filling line without changing chucks.
A recent trend for packaging in edible oil, soya sauce and vinegar is to offer dual flow for consumer packs, predominantly one-liter bottles. Dual flow means the consumer can choose between a large and a small flow. In the case of edible oil, the large flow is used for pouring into a frying pan and the small flow for preparing a salad.
BERICAP runs 23 factories in 20 countries worldwide, covering Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia and North and South America. The global presence is continuously extended. Latest expansions were the start of a production facility in Malaysia as a hub for further expansion in Southeast Asia and a new plant in Argentina to complement the presence of BERICAP for the southern cone of South America.
BERICAP offers a wide range of products for beverages, food and non-food industries.
The BERICAP solutions for the beverage market are of interest for bottlers of carbonated soft drinks, water, beer, juices, energy drinks, teas, syrups, milk and large volume containers for home and office delivery. The BERICAP solutions encompass 1-piece or 2-piece tamper evidence screw caps, sports caps and accessories suitable for cold, cold aseptic and hot filling. Closure solutions provide properties ranging from simple liquid tight solutions to closures for the demanding challenges of carbonated soft drinks. The closures can be equipped with oxygen scavenging capabilities or with light transmission barriers. BERICAP offers all known decoration and promotion possibilities.
BERICAP has been the inventor of the DoubleSeal system. The DoubleSeal system consists of an inner and an outer seal providing superior sealing performance for 1-piece closures. BERICAP has been involved in the development of the new low neck height standard PCO 1881.
BERICAP offers closures for aseptic and hot filling for the diameters 28, 33 and 38mm. The BERICAP closure technology provides weight reduced closure and neck solutions providing superior safety for product integrity. The weight saving is very interesting for aseptic filling and very substantial for hot filling since BERICAP closure technology allows to reduce wall thickness for hot filling. BERICAP offers for all neck finishes sports caps which perform satisfactory for aseptic and hot filling without the use of aluminum foil.
BERICAP offers within the food industry solutions for the edible oil, sauces and dressings industry. The BERICAP offer ranges from simple 1-piece closures, 2-piece closures, hinge closures to customer designed solutions and bi-injected closures. For sauces and ketchups BERICAP offers closures with customized design and optional TPE-valve for easy dispensing.
BERICAP has developed the light weight neck standard PET 26/21 together with industry partner currently in use in the edible oil industry.
BERICAP offers for the non-food sector solutions for the automotive, chemical and agrochemical industry as well as solutions for blow-molded containers, metal containers and plastic pails. The product offer is very wide, ranging from tamper evident screw caps with multiple liner options to pull-up spouts.
Current developments concentrate on closure solutions with customized design, superior tamper evidence and anti-counterfeiting features.
BERICAP runs 5 major R&D centers each being specialized in certain fields of closure technology. These central R&D centers are complemented by satellite R&D centers in individual plants in order to provide proximity to the market and the customers. BERICAP developed the pull-up telescopic spout for motor oil, the push-pull sports closure and the inner ring pull for edible oil. BERICAP was the first company to develop liner less closures with DoubleSeal. Its range of products includes tamper evident and child resistant systems, induction heat seal systems, gas barrier closures, oxygen scavengers, carbonation and pressure retention systems, venting caps and hot fill closures.
BERICAP runs its own manufacturing site for production of injection molds in Hungary. This service provides shorter lead times for production of injection moulds, consistency of mould design and concept for each product and fast delivery of spare parts.
BERICAP puts strong emphasis on quality. The best manufacturing practice in BERICAP Group is centrally coordinated and implemented at each plant to ensure superior quality. The best manufacturing practice is continuously pushed up to lift the quality level further. All BERICAP plants are ISO 9000, BRC-IOP or ISO 22.000 certified.
Until 1996 BERICAP was known as Jacob Berg GmbH & Co., the original name of the German plant, which was established in the 1920ies as a producer of metal cans made of tin plate. In 1960 the company portfolio was extended to include plastic closures which nowadays represent 100% of its sales.
The name BERICAP was born in 1981 by combining the BE from Jacob Berg and the RI of Rical the original name of the French plant → BE+RI+CAP=BERICAP.
BERICAP has generated in the year 2016 a sales revenue of 765 mln. EUR based on a sales volume of 78 bln. closures.
The group employs 3.300 people.
BERICAP wants to be known as the closure company which contributes most to our customers success. | 2019-04-18T20:47:28 | https://www.interpack.com/vis/v1/en/exhibitors/interpack2017.2467954 |
Qantas pilot, Captain Dooley Ellis was planning a big surprise for his girlfriend while she was on his flight. Ellis’ girlfriend, Anna, was traveling on the flight to South America to visit her family.
Dooley knew this would be the perfect opportunity to pop the question to her. While they were in the air, Dooley came over the airplane intercom and asked Anna to marry him. In the video, you can see Anna in complete shock while this all unfolded. Her reaction was absolutely incredible.
Then you see Dooley come out from the cockpit and get down on one knee. Anna said “yes” and gave her new fiancé a big hug. What a unique idea for a proposal! I’m sure Dooley and Anna will be telling this story for years. I’m so glad someone got this sweet moment on camera! Congrats you two! | 2019-04-25T23:41:50 | http://worthytosee.com/pilot-epically-proposes-to-girlfriend-during-flight-announcement/ |

Okay this one on the surface may look irrelevant to you, but I think there's some really juicy stuff in here that is important to anyone looking to make someone "want" whatever it is they are selling/promoting etc.
So let's get into it. First off, I put my hand up. I didn't give patreon it's due. Now I know why, and we'll get to that, but hand up high, mea culpa, I thought it was garbage.
On the flip side, I "got" kickstarter straight away.
Now if you don't know what either of these(and if you do skip a paragraph here) are, well let's clear that up before we go any further. Patreon is a platform that allows you to financially support creators and their projects via regular donations. Kickstarter is a dragon's den style concept where a project gets pitched and has a set amount of time to gain backers, and if the target isn't reached in the time allotted, they get nada. Got it? Okay let's move on.
So both platforms have some great things in common. Both are great ways for creators to cut out the middleman and go straight to the market to test out the viability of their ideas. Creators of everything from watches to comic books have gotten very rich off these platforms IF they have been able to use them right...but how to do it is a frequent question asked by plenty of talented people who have struggled to find success with either.
A few years back while running DOT Comics, I ran a successful kickstarter for a project. I got that platform pretty quickly and was able to use it to galvanise a supporter base who financially backed the project to fruition.
So I'm pretty happy to speak confidently as to how to run a successful kickstarter campaign based on first hand experience with the platform.
But then on the flip side, I got patreon totally wrong, and at the time I probably missed a golden opportunity. There were probably thousands of euros left on the table at the time due to my inability to see it for what it truly was and is.
For me, in hindsight both platforms are essentially the same thing- they are platforms for giving.
Now if you read that as "a platform for giving to projects" or "platform for giving to creators", well you've taken me up wrong.
You see, they are both platforms for you, the creator or company to give, not the other way around.
And in the above sentence lies the answer as to why I got patreon so badly wrong. You see, when I initially looked at projects using it, all I could see was people with their hand out looking for the public's money. Sure, there were token gestures, but it was clear as day for all to see, the hand was out.
So I rather quickly brushed it aside as a platform of merit based upon my observations that it was being used merely as a way to take. Kickstarter, on the other hand was far more interactive and allowed people to give their money to projects they believed in and in return would get a look in behind the curtain so to speak.
What I failed to see at the time, was patreon could also be used in this way, it just wasn't be used correctly by the ones I had observed. At the same time, yes I and others were having success with kickstarter, but many, many projects were failing to get to grips with it.
I've a keen interest in both platforms and my opinions and insights on both are constantly evolving. Where I stand right now, is that I see no reason why both cannot be used by creators and projects to create a sustainable model for growing your business or brand, and both are most likely one and the same thing.
This all sounds very top level but doesn't exactly help with the nitty gritty, does it?
So let's get down to that, let's make reading this practical for you. Oh, if you aren't a creative type and "just" run a business, well good news. You haven't wasted your time reading this far down, this is all gold dust for you too.
First off, say it with me.
The onus is on you to give. Give a product the public want. Give an idea they can get behind. Give them incentives to get involved.
I mean sure, in return you'll get their money, but don't focus on that whatsoever. Stay focused on giving to the public and the rest will take care of itself.
1. Give them you. Most of these campaigns are successful because the public sees one of them make an impassioned plea to get onboard with something, or an excited face proclaiming their project as the next big thing and they get curious. You know what doesn't get that response? Flat, mundane ads. If people wanted to buy a book they'd be on amazon right now and not on kickstarter or patreon. They are there for YOU, so make yourself available to them when they want to learn about YOUR project.
2. Give them access. Show them everything you possibly can about your projects. Tear the curtain down for them. Show them the ups and downs. Document it all on twitter, facebook, youtube and let them know the stakes. If you are passionate about something, chances are other people will be too if you can share your enthusiasm, and while not everyone can do that through personality in a quick flash, chances are if you can spend time sharing more details on why you care or what you are trying to achieve that people will feed off that and in turn be curious and then hopefully supportive.
3. Give them a carrot. Why should someone support you? This is the clever part. What are you offering? What are you GIVING? Easy ones to do are make things limited, so you are giving them the opportunity to get something exclusive. Doing a graphic novel? Give them the chance to get some of the original artwork, or a sketchbook of the pieces not used in the project. Writing a novel? Give them signed scripts or writers notes. Something you can't get your hands on the local book store. Is your product a watch, or a leather purse? Make an exclusive version only available via this platform and give them this opportunity to get their hands on it. If you are clever, it's win win for both parties. You gave them something they wanted, they backed it, and your project is succeeding in return.
4. Give them thanks. If someone shows you support, be sure to thank them. I recently purchased an album on bandcamp and the next day I received a personal email of thanks from the artist. It's a nice, unexpected touch, and he has a fan for life. Do that. Give them a call out of the blue to say thank you. On your next video interview, instead of saying "people", say "people such as..." and give them their due.
5. Give them your word. Don't be wishy washy. If someone backs you, tell them when they can expect what you gave them and be accountable to that deadline. They'll respect you for it.
6. Give them more. They support you. Build on that. Keep up the good work and don't slack off.
All of the above applies to kickstarter, patreon and other crowdfunding platforms. It all also applies to that new software you're launching, the event you are hosting or the product you are bringing to an exhibition. It's all about giving, and the second you start to take, you start losing them.

You see, people are panicking. They are scared.
Because Facebook has made an announcement that has people thinking the party is over.
Facebook will now emphasise person to person content and push down pages on your feed.
This has everyone from businesses to digital marketers very, very worried.
Meanwhile, I'm having a coffee while my 5 year old son watches chipmunks.
So, you may ask, why am I not panicked about facebooks proclamation of a dark age for business marketing on facebook?
Well, let's get to the core of it. No B.S.
SOCIAL MEDIA IS NOT TRADITIONAL MEDIA.
It isn't meant to be. It's meant to be SOCIAL. Yet far too many businesses use it as a platform to preach. If that's what you are doing, well I guess you should be worried.
But, if you are driving social and using the media to be social, you won't have a problem. If you have a product or business where people are actively engaging, tagging in, promoting your products and y'know, being SOCIAL, you'll be all good.
The other thing is this; facebook will not walk away from the revenue they generate from business marketing.
That's what they made. It was up over 57% from 2015 and the figures are staggering.
So in a nutshell, Zuckerberg & Co. aren't walking away from that any time soon. They'll simply re-adjust the model, to ensure the consumer gets the facebook experience they want while businesses still see value in the platform.
So...bottom line is, double down on being creative and abandon the traditional approach and you won't have a problem.

I hope Christmas has been great for you, on a personal and a professional level.
Now we're all at the stage where it's time to put the mince pies down and begin to look ahead.
What's 2018 got in store for you?
I'm sure you are like most businesses and will start to formulate your game plan for the next twelve months. I'm also pretty sure, that you recognise you need to keep a close eye on how marketing and advertising is evolving and you have probably made the decision to kick start your business through it.
Let me point you at some things to get you thinking about how to drive your business in 2018 using technology.
1. You need to be visual and interesting to your audience(note I didn't say customer).
The world has gone visual. People respond more and more every day to visual cues. Video and voice are now becoming the way to drive people into your businesses arms. There's many ways to skin that cat. Either through plain ole video, animated content or through carousels or slideshows. If you think just sticking a photograph on facebook is going to do the job, it really won't. Time to get creative and get ahead!
2. Take all your marketing money and put it into facebook.
Seriously. All of it. If that scares you, then put some of it in. But if you are neglecting facebook as a means to get to your customer base, you will lose to your competition in 2018. Why? Because they will do this if they aren't already.
3. Learn what influencers are and use them.
I'm not talking about mega stars either. There are people in your community, who use your product or a product like it, and proudly advertise it on their social feeds. You need to identify those people and get them through your doors.
4. Have a website that works for you and isn't just a glorified flier.
Give your time to people. Give them your expertise. Give people a reason to be indebted to you or your business. Literally every single time I did something altruistic in 2017 it resulted in something coming back my way. So think about what you can do to help your community and sit back and be amazed as it comes back to re-pay you.
So, there you have it. Five things to think about heading into 2018. The economy looks stable and will hopefully lead to lots of opportunities for you to thrive. As always, if you have any questions, opinions or would like to chat further, I'm here and would be happy to chat with you to help get ahead in 2018. Get in touch!

If innovation was easy, everyone would be doing it.
Today I'd like to talk about innovation and it's role in digital marketing.
This year I've sat down with several businesses. Some have gotten excited and opted to roll with us, some haven't but have then made an effort to improve what they do on social media. I'm happy that something productive came from the coffee or Skype call with me and it had value on some level for them, so that's a good thing.
I'll obviously keep a close eye on what they are doing, but also what's going on in their sphere. What's the competition doing? What's their starting point against the competitor? Most importantly, are they doing anything to really stand out?
The answer is typically no. That's not to be negative on their efforts, it's better to reach some folk via social than no folk. But if you are running a food delivery operation and are up against the Dominos of the market, or feeling the squeeze as online delivery services pinch your footfall little by little each and every week, well innovation is the only legitimate weapon you have to outperform them.
The good news? It can be done.
A few little tips that can help you once the lightbulb goes off.
1. Timing is everything! Got your big idea? Don't send it out 45 minutes after your competitor has sent their weekly mail or text. Take note and learn their patterns and beat them to the punch.
2. Be Unique. There's nothing unique about static photographs anymore. They'd want to be absolutely phenomenal to catch the eye. Furthermore, facebook and instagram are evolving away from them. Have you adapted yet or are you sharing static images? Is this what the business you compete with is doing? If the answer is yes, get excited. You are in a position to win and win now. If the answer is no and they've evolved to other ways of getting their product across, you need to adapt now and fast.
3. Back yourself. Don't just let out a sigh and accept defeat. Did netflix accept defeat when customers didn't want to have movies mailed to them and instead preferred to walk into stores? No, they took a cold hard look at their opponent and saw a huge hole they hadn't filled and made their move to own digital. Who's the big fish in that market now?
2018 is going to be the year of innovation. Digital marketing is evolving at rocket speed. If you can stay ahead, you stand a huge chance of growing and succeeding. We Sell Want Media wish you every success in the coming year and if innovating seems like a hard task but you feel you absolutely need to push back, get in touch. We'd love to help.
Whether it's eye catching video content, a cutting edge new website or daily unique social content, 2018 is going to be the year to roll up your sleeves and stake your claim.
Up for the fight? Let's talk.
"The Customer" is dead. Long live the Brand Ambassador.
Hey, you came back to check out another blog post. Thanks, it means the world to me that you are here again.
Here in Dublin it's freezing with December snow, so grab a coffee and have a quick read of this while you get warmed up with a latte or hot chocolate. Sorted? Let's go!
Let's take a cold hard look at how you approach making someone want your product.
Media has changed. Marketing has changed. The customer is now firmly in the driving seat and they really do not like being told what they should buy, wear or eat.
Make no mistake, this generation is in control when it comes to these decisions.
So, with this in mind, take a cold hard look at what you are doing to get sales.
Want more "customers"? If this is the case, you've already lost my friend.
Things have changed. People hate being "the customer". It's cold, sterile and it feels like a chore to them.
If you are approaching "the customer" as just a wallet, you my friend are missing a tremendous opportunity. It does not matter what you are selling or what service you are providing, it is not enough to just give it to them. You need to give it to them in a manner that excites them. Get them proud to have aligned themselves with your brand, and they'll proudly tell everyone and anyone on their social media feeds that they ate in your establishment (just look at "cheeky nandos"), bought clothes in your store or visited your venue.
Word of mouth is the single most potent weapon your business can have to compete and grow. If you can get it, you'll win. Hands down, no contest, you will beat your competition. In the era of social media, it's easier than ever to get it, yet 90% of businesses are failing miserably to do this.
So, with that being the way it is, I'm sure you'll want to know how to get it.
A few easy tips(free to you because you're still reading and the coffee is running out) will help get you started on this. If you do ANYTHING to further your business goals next year, at the very least do these.
It's too easy! Got a customer sat in your restaurant or venue on their phone? Ask them would they like you to take a picture for their instagram. They'll of course want one and will probably post it immediately after you take it. Congratulations, you've just engaged their 1000 friends and it cost you absolutely nothing and guess what, your waiter just earned his tip for being proactive.
Work in fashion or beauty? ASK can you take a photo of them in your product or with their hair done for your blog or facebook feed as it looks really well on them. Tell them to like your facebook page or instagram and tag them in it. Well done, you just won yourself a free advertisement on their wall and all their friends are going to want that level of fussing over.
Organic, natural word of mouth promotion will do more for your business than anything else will, trust me.
Make it appealing to whoever is in your store or venue to whip out their phone and share it with their world. You need to be clever as your customer is cyncial and jaded to forced approaches, but engage them by rewarding them. Maybe double loyalty points or a free meal to the best snap of the week, there's plenty of ways to approach this. If you get it right, you won't be able to stop the free advertising you'll be getting, nor would you want to!
Sticking a photo on facebook or instagram is not the answer. Anyone and everyone can do that. You need to be one step ahead of everyone else. In the social age, whoever does it first, wins. Simple. So find innovative ways to get the customer excited about what it is that you do. Struggling to do so? Get in touch. That's what We Sell Want specialise in.
I hope the above provokes some thought for you and gets you thinking about how this approach will really drive your business. The above really is just the tip of the iceberg, so if you'd like a more in depth chat on how to make it work for you, get in touch by dropping us a mail, tweet or be really retro and pick up the telephone and let's chat about how to get people really excited about your business!

Why your business has already lost on Black Friday.
Spoiler alert- reading to the end will give you some hope.
This year I've taken a cold hard look at the madness that is Black Friday outside of the U.S.
In an effort to combat the dent in sales felt by the major online players, European retail businesses have tried to compete by launching their own "Black Friday" deals or even more embarrassingly launched "Black Friday Week" or "Black Week".
On several levels this is a road that leads to ruin. Let's look at why.
1. Amazon & co. have already won the psychological battle.
America and American companies have the proverbial high ground, by nature of being part of the initial drive of the event. Literally every conversation I've had this week has seen people mention "Amazon" within 20 words of "Black Friday"(I did count). Like it or not, that's your starting point. If you think that's a negative, well it's also the starting point of your geographical competitors too.
2. Doing Black Friday tells your customers not to visit you.
Think about it. You are telling your customers all your deals and value for them will be there for them on Friday. So why would they visit either side of that day? So you will employ staff, stock shelves and wait for customers that aren't going to come all week because your Black Friday promotion has told them not to. You know what they are doing on the 6 days they aren't visiting your store? Browsing online. You've not just lost, you've done it spectacularly.
3. "Black Friday Week" confuses the hell out of your customers.
So you think you can counteract point 2 by having a week long event? You can't. The word "Friday" in "Black Friday Week" is screaming at your customers. It's a red flag telling them subconsciously that the real deal will still be Friday. So even if you manage to get this customer in your door, they will not commit to buying until Friday, no matter how politely you inform them the discount is week long.
SO....with all that in mind, can you win?
1. Acknowledge the novelty of it.
It's an American tradition linked to thanksgiving. If your business isn't driven by that market, don't act like it is. Play up the novelty of it. Today we rolled out a campaign that lead "Stuffed from all that Thanksgiving Turkey? Of course you aren't..." playing up the madness of non U.S. businesses jumping on the bandwagon. Be yourself.
If you go with the standard 10% off and your product is freely available online, you are facing an uphill battle. Instead, offer something unique for the day. Free branded pen with suitcase purchase? Free manicure when you book a hair appointment? Think about what you can reward your customer with that isn't a generic discount. Give them something rather than offer to reduce something.
3. Get an expert in.
If not us, then someone. But get someone who has a flair for thinking outside the box. Someone can make the event work in your favour by hacking the concept. Doing what everyone else is doing is not the way to get ahead. Throwing advertising money at facebook ads or sending out endless mailing list spam won't help you stand out. You need innovation. If you can come up with something, great. But if you can't get in touch.
Your staff are your brand.
Everything I know about business I've learned through two avenues; customers and staff.
Most businesses are purely focused on the customer and neglect the value that is the staff member. If you are the type of business operator that can get your staff to buy in to what your ultimate goal is, well you will be far more likely to win the battle.
The same goes for sports. A good coach will nurture his team and have his team prepared to go the extra mile for the cause. Sure, we've all seen the coach or CEO who can give the famed "hairdryer treatment" to his troops and succeed, but ultimately those gains are short lived and will exhaust the motivation of the people it is aimed at.
The real, long term gain for your project or business will be the buy in, and it's not as easy to get as you'd hope.
Time to come clean. You won't find all the answers to it in this short little blog. But hopefully, this will get you thinking along the path to finding them for yourself, after all the buy in will be unique to your business, brand and your personalities- both yours and theirs.
Nobody feels valued if kept in the dark. Why should they? Would you care? Experience has taught me that people perform better when they know what's at stake. Tell your team you need a target to grow the business. Let them know what is needed for your project or task to be successful.
2. TELL THEM HOW THEY CAN HELP.
Your team will be more inclined to go that extra mile if they feel they can be the hero. Rather than just assign tasks, tell them how they can use their particular strengths to help achieve success.
3. LET THEM OWN IT.
You know what kills performance? Micro-management. If you have to micro-manage, that's a failing on your part before the project even began. So have a little faith in yourself that you already made the right decisions and let the staff get on with doing what you have trusted them to do. If you've hired well and motivated well, they'll thrive when given the chance.
4. AFTERWARDS, BE HONEST(AGAIN) & GIVE CREDIT IF DUE.
By following the 3 steps, hopefully step 4 is a good one! If it is, sit the team down, either individually or collectively and assess performance. Don't use plurals, let them own the praise as well as the project! Use "you" and not "we" when giving praise about things they did well. Tell them the result of the success "because you were able to close that sale, we can now focus on growing in market x" or whatever is relevant to the outcome of the result.
You now have the staff optimised due to the way you trusted them to perform. Build on it. Give them a little more responsibility or call them in and ask for their opinions on next steps. If what they suggest isn't an option, explain to them your thinking as to why, but thank them for approaching it in the way they did.

Silver Haze buds are a strong Sativa variety. It provides a cerebral lift in mood and cognition. This makes it good for cases of anxiety and depression. The stimulation can be helpful in cases of adult ADD and ADHD. It is a strong anti-emetic that prevents nausea, as well as stimulates appetite to help fight wasting diseases.
Silver Haze has flavors and aromas that have been described as citrusy, piney, earthiness, sweet, and like oak wood.
Strain Overview: Silver Haze brought the beauty of Haze genetics to new heights by breeding in Northern Lights to increase the yield and quality of buds. This Haze-dominant strain now produces yields that made it financially worthwhile. Known for its cerebral sativa high, Silver Haze also offers a sweet and woody aroma.
Grow Techniques: Try growing this strain indoors with a hydroponic setup using the SOG (sea of green) method. It can be switched to flowering early on as it will stretch quite a bit. This strain responds well to training methodsand can be packed in closely with other plants without causing problems.
Climate: Responds well to dry, warm climates between 70 and 80 degrees.
Indoor/Outdoor: Silver Haze grows well indoors or outdoors given the right climate. It does exceptionally well indoors for a sativa strain.
Feeding: Be careful to not overfeed this sativa-dominant plant. If growing hydroponically, keep the EC (electrical conductivity) low to start off, and slowly increase as you pay attention to the effects the nutrients have on the plant. | 2019-04-23T10:41:39 | https://buddersweed.com/product/silver-haze/ |
Aaron and Josh come from extraordinarily different backgrounds in small town America. Aaron is the only child of a fundamentalist preacher who fears and condemns the ways of the world outside their community. Josh is a jock who can only seem to express the feelings Aaron stirs in him by tormenting Aaron about how he looks and dresses. But one day, Josh’s world is turned upside down by a simple sentence spoken by Aaron, and he decides to get closer to Aaron.
Aaron assumes it is a new form of torture, but Josh persists: first a ride home, then talking with Aaron while he does his afternoon farm chores. Then Josh persuades Aaron’s father to let him participate in a scholastic event out of town one weekend. Josh pays a huge price for Aaron to attend, but that one weekend persuades Aaron to get free of his parents and attend college.
College doesn’t solve all their problems, though. Josh is horrified when a senior on campus seduces Aaron. He can’t believe Aaron has always been gay and he missed it—and missed getting to be Aaron’s first. But when Aaron finds out his boyfriend isn’t faithful, things go from tense to worse. | 2019-04-24T02:49:27 | https://www.dreamspinnerpress.com/books/swan-song-for-an-ugly-duckling-by-michael-murphy-4823-b |

Despite preconceived notions of Greek mentality for entrepreneurship and technological advancement, there is a promising potential of legislative and financial developments in the last years that have made possible both the emergence of a startup plethora, as well as the growth of competitive companies that has led to a number of success stories such as market establishment, VC investments or corporate buyouts.
However such news rarely reach a wider audience in the public or national policymakers. One of HETiA’s mandates is technology and entrepreneurship evangelism, showcasing the benefits in society and economy. In the context of our current rebranding and expanding our pool of members, we will establish and maintain a constant presence in the media – traditional or otherwise.
Furthermore, as suitable national policies are often prerequisite for ecosystems nourishment, we recently participated in the General Secretariat of Research and Technology (GSRT) public consultation for Smart Specialisation Strategy – RIS3. HETiA contributed with expert suggestions/additions on the following thematic areas or sectors expected to contribute in the country’s growth perspective: Agro-food, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), Environment and Sustainable Development, Energy, Health and Pharmaceuticals, Materials and Construction.
A common pain for early stage business ventures is how to obtain the needed resources and successfully exploit them in order to reach product/market fit to start generating revenue. As far as human resources, HETiA maintains close relationships with academia by having a significant number of research institutions and laboratories as associated members. We organize career days for networking recent graduates with our industrial members that lead to internships and often convert to long-term employment. Moreover, we regularly post job offerings from our members in order to reach a wider audience of experienced professionals.
HETiA also organizes workshops on General Management and Business Development for technology-intensive environments, Project Management, Risk Management, Negotiations, Intellectual Property Rights as well as specialized training on “hot” domains like cybersecurity, blockchain, etc.
Finally, for financial resources, HETiA acts as a cluster facilitator for public subsidy schemes, informs the members about private funding opportunities and hosts “pitching to investors” events. In the past with our former identity (Hellenic Semi-Conductor Industry Association – HSIA) and along with Corallia’s mi-cluster, we have received a two-phase public funding that has led many of our members to reach considerable growth.
We believe that involvement of all stakeholders in an ecosystem is the only way to achieve sustainable growth that expands beyond the borders of a single technology domain or market sector. For that reason, HETiA maintains alliances with other national or international trade associations, clusters and public bodies that lead to collaborative activities.
With our members’ growth on mind, each year we implement joint participation in flagship tradeshows (CES, CEBIT, IoT World Congress, etc.) where participants receive special discounts and enhanced visibility. We also host networking events for our members to explore collaboration possibilities and obtain valuable lessons learned from companies that successfully faced scaling their business challenge. | 2019-04-18T19:03:00 | https://hetia.org/what-we-do-en/ |

Over 1,000 people have registered an interest in the Class Action groups challenging the legality of the increases to tracker mortgage interest rate margins proposed/implemented by West Bromwich and Bank of Ireland. Many of the people who have registered are not affected at this time but are sufficiently concerned about the potential knock on effects to the attitudes of other lenders to make a donation to the Class Action Marketing Fund. We must spread the word to ensure that we win these cases in order to to discourage other mortgage lenders from following suit.
Funds raised towards the legal fighting fund are being held in a solicitors client account which complies fully with The Law Society rules and is protected by client money protection insurance and the solicitors compensation fund until they are billed. The objective is to raise sufficient money to be in a position to fund group action court cases and associated legal expenses insurance. No court cases will begin until such time as sufficient funds are raised to protect and limit the liabilities of all participants to the amount of funds contributed up front. If Court cases are not required or are not affordable then any surplus funds held on account will be returned pro-rata to the members of each group.
Existing supporters of the Class Action campaign are to be congratulated for their efforts to date.
If you wish to get involved please see the To-Do list below.
Complete the Class Action Expression of Interest Form – Link here You will then receive emails advising you what to do next.
Write to your local MP – find your local MP via this link several MP’s have already referred this matter to the chancellor of the exchequer or the chairman of the treasury select committee. The more support the better so we need everybody to write.
On these grounds we have raised more than enough money to cover the initial legal work and the costs of obtaining Counsels opinion. In fact, after taking these costs out of the funds raised to date we are 27% towards our minimum target fund raising to commence litigation. Now I don’t know about you but if Counsels opinion is that we have a VERY strong case I would definitely consider paying a lot more than I’ve paid already to take this all the way. £240 a case is a tiny fraction of what we all stand to lose, not just in terms of this lender but possibly others too.
In a months time we will have Counsels opinion. These are the scenario’s I have considered.
1) Worst case scenario is that we will be advised that we do not have a case. If that happens, costs to date will be taken from the funds raised and we will all get a refund pro-rata.
2) We are advised that we have a good case but we do not have enough money in the pot to fight it. We will then have to set a closing date for the fund and have a vote amongst members on how much they are prepared to pay if necessary. I suggest a pledge of up to one years worth of savings because if we start trying to set amounts we could be going back and forth forever more if people decide they are are in at one level and out at another. If we still don’t have enough money pledged at the end of such an exercise then it’s possibly game over, i.e. contributions are refunded net of expenses to all named borrowers.
3) We have enough money in the pot and counsels opinion is that we should fight.
In our opinion, we are more likely to raise the required funds on this basis.
We have a moral duty to do what is right for those who support the values upon which we started this campaign in the first place. Our promise to all who support these values is that we will not sell out on you at any price. We will continue to fight this injustice and we will fight any other lender who tries to follow suit.
We appointed solicitors to consider the actions of the West Bromwich BS tracker mortgage hike in interest rate margins at the beginning of October. Well over 100 affected borrowers have sent their papers and fees to the solicitor representing the group.
The solicitor acting for the group has been asked NOT to commit chargeable time to respond to individual telephone calls and emails from affected borrowers, this is to preserve funds. All questions should be raised via the Property118 forums to prevent duplication of efforts.
Around £15,000 of the funds raised to date will be used to complete the following steps. The balance will be held towards a Court action fighting fund, the target for which is £100,000 plus.
The solicitor acting will provide template letters for all paid up members to send to the solicitors who acted in the transaction. This letter will advise the solicitors to put their PI insurers on notice and also ask the solicitors to comment on why they did not offer advice on the clauses now being used by West Bromwich BS.
A further template letter for affected borrowers to submit as a follow up to initial complaints to the Financial Ombudsman service will also be prepared by the solicitors acting for the group and will be based on counsels opinion. There is no rush to do this, we have up to six months, hence the decision to await Counsels opinion in respect of the best possible legal arguments to present.
The solicitor acting on behalf of the group has already sent a letter to Andrew Tyrie MP, Chairman of the Treasury Select Committee. A response is awaited.
The solicitor acting on behalf of the group will submit formal complaints to the Financial Conduct Authority and the Financial Ombudsman Service once Counsels opinion has been received. A further complaint may be submitted to the Advertising Standards Authority dependent upon counsels advice.
More pressure needs to be put on the Financial Conduct Authority to obtain their own independent advice as to the legality of the actions already implemented by the Bank of Ireland. They received our barristers opinion, sent it to BoI who obtained comment from their QC and then decided to do nothing further. Our solicitor is of the opinion that the FCA response was a “whitewash” as they did not seek their own independent advice prior to making a decision. The more noise we can make about this the better as we need them to reconsider their position. Pressure is intensifying from the Treasury Select committee to lean on the FCA as more MP’s get embroiled in the debate following complaints from their constituents. Fundraising will recommence in due course, in the meantime, a QC working at the same chambers as the barrister we instructed has volunteered to review the opinion of our barrister and the responses from the FCA and the Bank of Ireland.
Fees applicable to the Bank of Ireland Class action are likely to be £240 per property, less any fees paid to date. We will advise you when the fundraising re-commences. Our objective is to significantly increase the numbers of interested parties before fund raising recommences. We are quietly confident that the promotional activities described in this update article will increase the numbers of interested participants.
The Financial Ombudsman Service are yet to make a decision based on the formal complaint regarding the actions of Bank of Ireland. It has been 7 months now since the FOS opened this case and their are still pontificating how to deal with it. If you believe this is an unacceptable delay the address to write to is The Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR.
Preference remains to persuade a regulator to take the cases to Court as this will significantly reduce costs to affected borrowers.
Disclosure – in group legal action cases it is normal for both sides to be aware of each others legal arguments before a Court case commences. Therefore, there is no risk to debating legal points in open forum. There is, however, a positive upside in that it continues to provide media with new stories and people to contact for case studies. Exposure is what we need to build the group.
The purpose of the marketing fund is to increase awareness of the campaign. This fund is held separately to the Class Action legal fighting fund which is held in a solicitors client account protected by client money protection insurance. The marketing fund is administered by Innovative Landlord Solutions LLP which is the owner of Property118.com.
Initiatives funded so far include sending letters to a database of mortgage brokers and financial advisers. The database was rented from Equifax and we chose to send letters as opposed to emails in order to guarantee delivery. We have also completed significant Search Engine Optimisation to make it easier for people surfing the internet to learn about our campaigns.
A Press Conference, open to paid up members of the Class action Group, and those who have contributed to the marketing fund, will be organised shortly after we have receive Counsels opinion on the West Brom case and the QC’s opinion in respect of our submission of the BoI case to the FCA, their response and the BoI’s QC’s response to the FCA. All responses are anticipated to be received towards the end of November with the Press Conference being held in London shortly thereafter. Surplus funds in the marketing fund, which are still continuing to flow in nicely, are being held towards this event. Funds raised since our first call for donations to a Marketing Fund on 3rd October are now approaching £4,000 of which £3,375 has been utilised to date.
We have done some research and we are able to contact in the region of 230,000 to 420,000 people via Facebook for a budget of £800. These will be friends of friends of people who have “Liked” the Property118 Facebook page. On the basis that people socialise with like minded people this could be an excellent target audience.
The beauty of this type of advertising is that we can add credit to reach more people as and when we receive donations.
All comments via the main discussion threads please.
If you haven’t already signed up please completed the form below.
As you will be aware, we are actively looking for a suitable course of action to oppose the planned increase in the interest rate charged on your mortgage by West Bromwich Building Society (WBBS).
We need to establish the exact conditions and legal arguments WBBS is using to justify the increase. The first thing we are doing is writing a letter on behalf of everyone who has contacted us to ask WBBS this question. In particular, whilst we have seen a sample offer letter which of course makes no reference to the ability to increase the interest rate in the manner they are proposing to do, we have seen their terms and conditions which does include this term (however vague it may be). We need to understand the basis under which WBBS believes those terms are incorporated into the mortgage contract.
We also need a complete set of documentation which would include any promotional material you may have from WBBS, the completed application form, the key features document, the mortgage offer letter and any other document you have received on the grant of the mortgage. We would also like to know how many investment properties you owned at the time you took out your mortgage. This may be helpful in countering any arguments regarding your status as a consumer or professional borrower. If you have not retained copies of all of this documentation please send us copies of everything you have.
Once we have this response from WBBS and a full set of documentation, we will instruct a barrister to provide us with a legal opinion on the merits of pursuing a legal action against WBBS to prevent them from imposing this increase. There are a number of legal remedies available and we will identify the most suitable ones to pursue. We are also considering the merits of providing a template claim form and particulars of claim to allow you a cost effective way of bringing a claim against WBBS in the small claims court.
At the same time, we will prepare a template letter for you to send to your solicitor who acted for you on the loan. At the time you took out your loan, your solicitor would have had a duty to report a term as significant as the one WBBS is relying upon to you and you may have a negligence claim against them. The letter will ask them to put their insurers on notice with regards to the potential claim. We will also provide you with a template complaint form to lodge your complaint with the Financial Ombudsman Service.
Following receipt of the advice from the barrister we will start the appropriate action.
Obviously all of the above costs money. Our budget for steps 1 – 4 above will be in the region of £15,000. We will therefore be seeking a payment from you of £240 to cover steps 1 – 4. Any excess funds received will be used to fund Step 5. If you have more than one loan from WBBS then this sum is payable per loan.
We will have a better idea of the cost of step 5 once we have received the barrister’s advice. The cost to you will depend on how many people sign up – obviously the more there are, the less it will cost each of you.
Complete and return our instruction form (download here) together with copies of two pieces of identification for you.
Pay the sum of £240 into our client account. Details as follows: Account Name: The Law Department Client Account, Account Number: 06658997, Sort Code: 12 24 82. Alternatively, you may also send a cheque accompanying the papers referred to above. Cheques should be payable to The Law Department Client Account.
Upon receipt of all of the above, you will receive an acknowledgement from us and the template letters. We will update the Property118 forum regularly with timelines as to when we expect to receive the advice from the barrister.
The Law Department is regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA number 441085). The Principal is Justin Selig who is a solicitor regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
My problem is that the yearly service charge is now just under £2,000 pa not including ground rent. I have flats else where and I’m paying approx £1,000 pa service charge on average so I’m getting increasingly frustrated by this £2,000 service charge. When I question the management company they just fob me off with excuses like oh the landscaping budget has gone up or the insurance has gone up blah blah blah!!!! I have had several rows with the management company about the quality of there works so the fact that I also think I’m being ripped off is very frustrating. Getting rid of them would be ideal but I do not have the knowledge, time or patience to contact and then get together with the other residents and form a RTM etc… Is there something a bit easier and quicker I can do to get this management company in check, I’ve heard about Leasehold valuation tribunals but is that the correct route for this problem and can anyone tell me how it works?
Or is there a quick way of just just simply sacking them and getting another management company in, I always thought the management company was employed by the freeholder so would that be a job of the freeholder?
Forget double-glazing, a friendly landlord, and room to swing a cat. What’s really important in Britain’s 2 million flat and house shares?
In addition, SpareRoom research of more than 1,000 room seekers reveals that almost a third (32%) think people are the most important element of a flat or house share, with just one in ten (9%) saying the property itself is their main consideration. Almost six in 10 (59%) say both the people and the property are equally important to them.
“Flatsharing is all about people – who you live with is how you live. The sheer amount of searches related to the personalities, lifestyles and preferences of future flatmates shows just how important it is to get on with and like the people you live with. For many, that means finding flatmates with similar hobbies or lifestyles or shared backgrounds.
“As more people cotton on to the affordability and social advantages of flatsharing, it really is gaining popularity. We’ve seen flatsharer figures rise by almost a third in just two years and our research shows that half of flatsharers are returning to shared accommodation after renting solo or with a partner – many in a bid to save deposits to get onto the property ladder sooner.
The National Audit Office has crticised Universal Credit welfare reforms as being badly managed, overambitious and poor value for money including £34 million written off on failed IT.
The spending watchdog said “risks were taken with the universal credit to hit targets, IT systems had limited functionality and an unfamiliar project management approach was used”.
These IT issues have delayed the introduction of Universal Credit although Ian Duncan Smith has confirmed the problems are now fixed and will be delivered within budget and timescales.
The report said there was still potential for universal credit to bring about “considerable benefits” if the department put “realistic plans and strong discipline in place”.
Expenditure on IT systems has accounted for more than 70% of the £425m spent to date but the report could not confirm if the infrastructure in place will support a national roll out.
Universal Credit has been hotly debated by readers in Property118 and widely condemned as a bad idea, by not making housing benefits directly payable to Landlords and in the trial areas used so far has resulted in a substantial increases in rent arrears.
Earlier this year we spotted an opportunity to set up a buy to let Estate Agency. However, due to lack of resource (time) very little has been done other than a dozen or so sales on behalf of developers, plus setting ourselves up with The Property Ombudsman Service and organising Professional Indemnity insurance to keep ourselves legal of course.
The reason we haven’t got around to growing the buy to let Estate Agency business is that our passion is facilitating the sharing of best practice amongst landlords and letting agents on the Property118 forum which I set up just over two years ago. Prior to that I was a commercial finance broker and I’ve been a landlord since 1989.
The opportunity is a very simple one. Nearly 200,000 landlords and associated professionals subscribe to our daily newsletters and engage on the Property118 forum. Some of these people are no doubt in the market to buy more property. It occurred to us that most properties are sold with vacant possession, however, for landlords that can be a bit of a nightmare as both the vendor and the purchaser both experience costly void periods.
As we haven’t got time to source properties to sell, never mind to prepare sales particulars, do floor plans, arrange viewings and progress chase offers through to completion, our idea is to work on a split commission basis with other agents.
We will showcase properties on the Property118 forum and link to them in the daily Newsletters. Enquirers will be landlords who may well already own properties in the area, hence for agents who partner with us on this venture, all referrals will be good leads for future sales and letting opportunities as well as prospective purchasers of the property which is being marketed.
This information, together with an indicative financing quotation will enable us to calculate not only rental yields but the cash on cash equivalent annual returns after all costs including mortgage, insurance, lettings and management, a sensible maintenance budget and where appropriate any ground rents or service charges. This will enable investors to compare cashflow returns on their money to the returns they are currently receiving elsewhere on their investments. The potential for capital growth is obviously a primary reason for people to invest into property too of course.
We will not allow this activity to overwhelm what we do here at Property118, therefore, we will cherry pick the properties we want to promote based on those which we believe make sense to buy as investments.
It is unlikely that we will be in a position to accept instructions directly from landlords to sell their properties due to the lack of infrastructure to provide a sufficiently professional service, i.e. floor plans, viewings, for sale signs etc. Therefore, any such enquiries will be referred back to the agencies we end up partnering with. Landlords are, of course, also welcome to introduce us to any agencies they are already working with as we will not get tied into any exclusive contracts. Our independence is vitally important to us.
I would like to have a chat with any agents who see some mileage in this opportunity. I have some ideas on splitting commissions but I am very open minded at this stage as the project is very much in its infancy.
If you would like to chat please comment below, email me – [email protected] or call me on 07834 754 223.
It’s time for me to share some controversial views on why I believe landlord licensing to be a pointless exercise I think.
Now don’t get me wrong, I hate the fact that a very small minority of bad landlords have earned our profession a bad reputation. However, it appears they might be a necessary evil too.
We are hearing reports coming in suggesting that David Cameron’s “Major Projects Authority” may have given Universal Credit reforms a Red Light warning.
A landlord from Bracknell, Berkshire, has spoken out about her nightmare ordeal after her housing benefit tenant failed to pass on the payments. This issue has been widely reported and discussed within the buy-to-let industry but now a landlord has come out publicly to talk about it. The non-payments left Mrs Trivedy and her self-employed partner in an extremely difficult financial position. As a result of the welfare reforms and implementation of Universal Credit thousands of ordinary landlords fear that they will see more of this kind of problem. It is expected to affect the whole country and BBC1 are covering the issue on The One Show tonight, Thursday 2nd May at 7pm. They will feature Mrs Trivedy and Landlord Action, the problem tenant specialists, who she went to for help.
After meeting her current partner, Mrs Trivedy decided to sell her four bedroom house in Bracknell from a previous relationship so that they could buy somewhere together. After failing to sell the property quickly enough, she took the decision to let it out, which for three and half years provided the perfect solution. When her previous tenants moved out and an acquaintance from her daughter’s school, with five children of her own, expressed an interest in the property, it seemed like the perfect solution. The prospective tenants explained that they had fallen on tough times but that the £1,200 housing benefit they were due to start receiving would cover the rent. They agreed to set up a direct debit straight to Mrs Trivedy’s account.
From the moment the family moved in (December 2011), the payments were not consistent and with the housing benefit being paid in arrears every two weeks, there was already a shortfall of £20 per month which the tenants were supposed to make up. Four months ago, the payments stopped altogether. On communication with the tenants, Mrs Trivedy was told to liaise with the local housing allowance office, to no avail. After attempting to speak to the tenants at the property to discuss the issues and try to work out a payment schedule, the tenants called the police to file a harassment case. Mrs Trivedy has since received abusive text messages from the tenants via her mobile phone. In desperation, Mrs Trivedy called on the help of Landlord Action who have since issued a Section 8 possession notice, the process of which was filmed by The One Show. | 2019-04-21T06:07:35 | https://www.property118.com/tag/budget/ |

Your home is your sanctuary, and the place you should feel most safe and comfortable. It’s also the place you end up spending a majority of your time, so it’s important to check up on the safety of space, and guarantee that multiple aspects of your home health are in check. One of these aspects is the quality of the air you are breathing in on a daily basis. We’ve discussed the importance of checking your home for dangerous pollutants like mold, asbestos, and radon, but it’s also valuable to take note of products in your home that may be giving off harmful toxins and chemicals. The best way to fix this problem is to be aware of how objects are polluting your air, and what changes you can make in order to upgrade your air quality.
What is lurking in your air?
These contaminants can be found in many household items and are a problem for our environmental air quality as well, as they contribute to pollution of our outdoor spaces. The good new is, organizations and companies out there are developing tools and products to combat these issues and increase the overall health of our homes.
Now that you are aware of some of the issues and how they might be affecting you, it will be easier to actively take steps to purify your space. The first step you can take is to look for furniture, flooring and other interior decor pieces that are made with organic materials and sustainable features. From non-toxic sofas to recycled kitchen tables, make a point to seek out earth-friendly and reliable brands that care about the health of their customers and the environment. If you aren’t ready to purchase new furniture just yet, you can invest in a UV air purifier that removes 99% of air pollutants like mold, bacteria, pollen and gases. Air purifiers, as well as naturally purifying plants target the pollutants you can’t see and clean them without you even lifting a finger. Additionally, you should stay away from aerosol sprays, chemical spray cleaners, and synthetic cleaning solutions that put you at high risk for inhaling toxins. For results that will keep your surfaces clean as well as your air, a DIY cleaning solution will get the job done. | 2019-04-24T00:03:32 | https://www.wavehomesolutions.com/2018/01/22/be-more-aware-of-your-air/ |

These are very encouraging figures given that there is not a large Jungian community in Prague which helped the attendance in London and Rome.
There is still time for people here to be impulsive and book for the event right now! I am attaching the flyer yet again for this purpose. After this, no more flyers, I promise.
I suggest that people start to find out who on this list is coming to Prague so we/you can think about the informal social life. | 2019-04-19T12:14:57 | http://jungstudies.net/160-people-coming-analysis-activism-3/ |

Nobody Leave The Room is OUT now !
The first in a series of new 'Me And Cassity' tracks I'll be releasing in 2018.
The plan is to record & release a track per month and then see what it all adds up to at the end of the year.
Maybe put together an LP or something then. We shall see.
'Nobody Leave The Room' was written, recorded and mixed in my studio here in Hamburg, Germany. I sure had fun with it, for sure.
Whatever sounds interesting, intriguing or halfway-sensible to me in the moment, I'll do. That's all there is in form of an overriding masterplan for this whole thing at the moment. And that sure feels good.
Here's what I came up with this last cold and rainy week in December 2017. I hope you enjoy 'Nobody Leave The Room' and maybe care to join me on my little journey thru the rest of 2018, song for song.
Written, recorded and mixed by Dirk Darmstaedter.

While most people would love to better themselves, not everyone is willing to do the work it takes. By researching information, you have taken the first step to learn about how to get a better body.Continue reading to learn simple steps that you can do to increase muscle quickly.
Vegetables are an important to building muscle as any other nutrient. Vegetables provide valuable nutrients that you cannot find in proteins and protein-rich foods. You can also get a lot of fiber from them. Fiber helps your body make better process protein.
You have to make sure that you always warm up properly before starting any exercise. As muscles gain strength, they are under additional stress, they become more prone to injuries. Warming the muscles up helps counteract this increased risk of injury.Prior to doing heavy lifting, exercise lightly for about 10 minutes, then three to four light and medium warm-ups.
Always include three core exercises in your training schedule.These are large muscle group exercises like dead lifts, bench presses and dead lifts. These exercises help add bulk in addition to strengthening and conditioning your body. You should aim to include these exercises in some variations on them.
Building muscle needs a true commitment that lasts a while, so it’s important for you to keep yourself motivated. You can even come up with rewards that are directly related to bodybuilding journey. As an example, obtaining a massage can not only improve the blood flow to your muscles, which will help increase your blood flow and benefits muscle growth.
Eat well on the days you want to build muscle. Consume a large amount of nutritionally dense calories about one hour before starting your workout. This is not a license to overeat on the days that you workout, but eat more than you normally do on the days you don’t go to the gym.
Make sure that you are taking in enough calories in a day. There are several online calculators that help to determine caloric needs dependent on your goals. Use these calculators, and alter your diet to get plenty of carbs, proteins, and other nutrients.
Adjust your diet to make sure you are getting what your training. You need a healthy ratio of protein and carbohydrates while reducing your fat intake. Don’t simply eat more; eat in a healthy balanced fashion. You may also need to take vitamins or a protein supplements to help you build muscles quicker.
One way to work around limiting muscles is to pre-exhuast them prior to working other muscle groups that are holding you back is “pre-exhausting.” You can rest your biceps and work on your lats with an exercise that provides the appropriate isolation, like straight arm pull-downs that won’t overly-stress the biceps.Because of this, your biceps will be less likely to limit you.
Use smarts as you are completing squats.Make sure you lower the bar to the center point of the traps center. This method of lifting will help you to keep the bulk of the strain on your legs, hamstrings and hips perform, allowing you to squat and press more weight.
After reading the article above, you have learned that it really isn’t that hard to look great and build muscle.

The Tanglewood subdivision is located in Fairfax County Virginia, just outside the Town of Vienna. TCA comprises neighborhoods adjacent to Tanglewood Park on Abbotsford Drive, Bruton Place, Carmichael Drive, Corsica Street, Madrigal Way, Minuet Court, Rhapsody Drive, Riviera Drive, and Tanglevale Street.
To contact the members of the board or individual zone representatives see the email addresses listed on the Representatives page.
Thanks to former resident Allen Jensen, below are PDF versions of the original survey plats of the Tanglewood subdivision from Fairfax County Site Records, including easements and rights of way.
Tanglewood Community Association was formed in 1976.
The builder was Woodlawn Enterprises, with the principal owner/developer Clyde Anderson, and with financial backing from Milton Petersen. The field superintendent was Bob Batal (who later established his own enterprise, Batal Builders). Mr. Anderson’s daughter lived in one of the models, although I do not know when she purchased it. She sold it in 2010.
The models were listed for sale at $43,500 for the split, $44,500 for the four bedroom colonial and $45,500-46,500 for the five bedroom models. There was also a premium charged for any lot that backed up to the park. (I think $1,500.) There were extra charges for garage over carport and double garage as well as double carport.
Woodlawn Enterprises controlled the HOA until all the houses were sold. The dues were $10 a year.
On June 1, 1976 with the completion of the project, Woodlawn turned over the HOA to the homeowners. They gave the Association a starter check of $265. Tom Walsh became the first president of TCA. (His wife Margo still lives at 2331 Riviera.) The dues remained at $10 per annum.
In 1985 the dues were increased to a whopping $15.
In 1990 the dues were increased to $20.
In 1994 the dues were increased to $24.
In 1995 the dues were increased to $40, where they remained until 2002 when they were doubled to $80 per year.
Margaret Brough of 2300 Tanglevale is the current longest continuing member, she bought in Dec. 1970. | 2019-04-20T10:19:28 | http://tcavienna.org/about.php |

- The German philosopher Edmund Husserl (1859-1938) is the central figure in the phenomenological movement. HUSSERL STUDIES serves as a forum for historical, systematic, interpretive, and comparative studies on Husserl and phenomenology in general. Although the editor encourages intercultural and interdisciplinary submissions, most authors concentrate on narrowly defined problems of exegesis or analysis drawn from Husserl's writings (Katz). | 2019-04-21T00:21:58 | https://www.periodicals.com/springer/ttl01679848.html |

This was a hard topic to think about, but ultimately I would say deciding we were ready to become parents was probably our biggest choice. Originally we were going to wait one more year but when we were in Maine for vacation this summer, I kept seeing all the families on the beach and something just clicked. I don’t think you’re ever completely “ready”, but we’re in a really good place now and it feels right.
Appreciate. In which moment did you find yourself flooded with gratitude? How will you rally around gratitude in 2012?
I wrote about this in my Thoughts post already, but when someone close to you or not even that close to you passes away, it always makes you more thankful for what you have. I’m really trying to change my outlook on this for 2012, so it doesn’t take the idea of death to make me appreciate what I do have and how lucky I am.
I adored making these and they were a huge hit!
These were not that hard to make (just time consuming), and they were SO YUMMY! Perfect for a summer party or BBQ.
I had been dying to make this cake since I saw the inspiration pic a couple summers ago. Such a cute idea to dress up a cake.
New art for our bedroom – it was an easy way to capture all the good memories of our wedding. And it also inspired me to finally open up my own Etsy shop! | 2019-04-22T10:14:09 | http://www.ourlittlecasita.com/2011/12/choose-appreciate-create.html |
"Induction, bounding, weak combinatorial principles, and the homogeneou" by Denis R. Hirschfeldt, Karen Lange et al.
Goncharov and Peretyat'kin independently gave necessary and sufficient conditions for when a set of types of a complete theory T is the type spectrum of some homogeneous model of T. Their result can be stated as a principle of second order arithmetic, which we call the Homogeneous Model Theorem (HMT), and analyzed from the points of view of computability theory and reverse mathematics. Previous computability theoretic results by Lange suggested a close connection between HMT and the Atomic Model Theorem (AMT), which states that every complete atomic theory has an atomic model. We show that HMT and AMT are indeed equivalent in the sense of reverse mathematics, as well as in a strong computability theoretic sense. We do the same for an analogous result of Peretyat'kin giving necessary and sufficient conditions for when a set of types is the type spectrum of some model.
Along the way, we analyze a number of related principles. Some of these turn out to fall into well-known reverse mathematical classes, such as ACA0, IΣ02, and BΣ02. Others, however, exhibit complex interactions with first order induction and bounding principles. In particular, we isolate several principles that are provable from IΣ02, are (more than) arithmetically conservative over RCA0, and imply IΣ02 over BΣ02. In an attempt to capture the combinatorics of this class of principles, we introduce the principle Π01GA, as well as its generalization Π0nGA, which is conservative over RCA0 and equivalent to IΣ0n+1 over BΣ0n+1.

objectives of a plethora of modern drugs to fight heart disease, Alzheimer’s, MS and other neurological diseases and disorders, to the intense studies of the workings of the mind by Jung and Freud and Wundt which opened the pathways in the West to seeking psychological, behavioral and emotional health, we are peoples consumed with the issues of the heart-mind.
Here in the West we view these areas of heart and mind as two separate spheres. Physically they are separate organs operating at different levels of energy and with vastly different duties in the physical human body. Enter next the study of the mind and emotions, which developed as a completely different field of study from physical health in the West.
In Japanese, there are three words for heart”: shinzou, which refers to the physical organ, ha-to, for the love heart, and kokoro, defined as "heart; mind; mentality; emotions; feelings." In Japanese culture, the heart-mind-spirit is viewed as one entity – not as three entities combined, but as immutably one. Another way of stating Kokoro is: the heart and its functions; mind and its functions; and center, or essence. When we think of the “functions” of heart and mind, all aspects of each become expressed, from the physical to the metaphysical to the spiritual, thus Kokoro encompasses the essence of human experience on all levels.
The ability to understand the Kokoro as integral to our well-being crosses the barriers we have instituted in Western thought and medicine and allows us to understand and work with the interconnectedness of mental, emotional and physical health and well-being. Treating a physical heart issue or a physical brain issue will not restore a human to wholeness. Treating issues of the mind and emotions as ones that are not connected to our physical health and well-being disconnects the human spirit from the human body.
The practice of Reiki works with the Kokoro – uniting that which we have set apart and restoring oneness to all aspects of our being.
This year’s symposium continues the work of uniting both West and East in understanding and respecting one another; helping Reiki practitioners to work more effectively with mental-emotional health issues as they appear in their lives and practice and partner with health care professionals in working together for the best outcomes for all. Please join us November 3rd at the Hawthorne Hotel in Salem, MA for a day of learning and community.
