On the 20th June Martin Fairn and Bede Brosnahan attended the Training Ground Guru's Cohesive Coaching Conference.
The event brought together from a range of sports and organisations - including a number of Premier League Clubs for The Training Ground Guru's first live event of the year.
The conference, which was held in Manchester, explored how coaches can integrate the "four corners" of tactical, technical, physical and mental into their work.
Brian Ashton, International Rugby Coach, kicked off proceedings, explaining why cohesive coaching is so important. Martin was invited to join the panel and introduced the group to Red2Blue, how to stay focused, and how to overcome the negatives effects pressure can have on performance.
The event itself was a sell-out, and everyone really benefited from listening to people's views and perspectives, and Martin and Bede are looking forward to attending future events. | 2019-04-22T23:59:37Z | https://www.gazing.com/gazing-latest-news/cohesive-coaching-conference |

In November 1922, archeologist Howard Carter pushed a candle through a hole he had made in a sealed tomb door and peeked inside. “Can you see anything?”, he was asked. “Yes, wonderful things”.
Carter had just discovered the tomb of an obscure 18th dynasty pharaoh, Tutankhamun. Piled high with a dazzling array of treasures, the contents would stun the world.
Carter and his sponsor, Lord Carnarvon, had made the greatest discovery in the history of Egyptology — a fully intact 3000-year-old pharaoh’s tomb untouched by grave robbers.
The story was mesmerising. Henry Morton, the only journalist allowed on the excavation, filed a series of reports of Carter’s discoveries to the London Times. And they kept coming.
The tomb was so stuffed with treasures it took the team nearly 3 months to sort and catalogue them all. But by February the next year, Carter and Carnarvon were ready to open the inner burial chamber that they hoped would contain the pharaoh himself.
They were astonished by what they found — 3 solid gold coffins, nested inside of each other. Inside the final one was the mummy of boy king, Tutankhamun.
Shortly after the amazing discovery, tragedy struck. Lord Carnarvon fell ill and died after an insect bite went septic.
Rumours began to circulate that Carter and Carnarvon had found stone tablets in Tutankhamun’s tomb inscribed with a curse. Had Carnarvon been struck down by a pharaoh’s spell for daring to desecrate his burial place?
Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, thought so. Ironically for a man associated with the logical detective, Doyle was an ardent believer in the supernatural and declared that Carnarvon was struck dead for daring to disturb the young king.
The newspapers and the public, already in the grip of pharaoh fever, were hooked on the story. Over the coming years, they would link dozens of strange and early deaths amongst those associated with the tomb’s discovery to the curse.
Was this simply early tabloid sensationalism and wild imaginations or did a sinister curse doom those who dared enter the pharaoh’s last resting place?
Even before Carnarvon’s death, there was talk of impending doom.
The day Carter first discovered the entrance to the tomb, a cobra got into his house and killed his pet canary. Pharaohs were represented by the cobra, and Carter’s workers felt it an omen — do not enter.
Best-selling novelist Marie Corelli, quoting an ancient Arabic manuscript, told the press that — “the most dire punishment follows any rash intruder into a sealed tomb”.
Carter also received a rash of letters warning him not to proceed. The archeologist dismissed it all as nonsense, but when his benefactor Carnarvon died shortly later it sent the press into a frenzy.
It wasn’t entirely clear how he died, although the suggestion was that a mosquito bite had become infected when Carnarvon accidentally nicked it whilst shaving. After a delirious fever, he succumbed on April 5th, 1923.
More details emerged that encouraged the speculation. The night of his death, there was a black-out in Cairo and reportedly Carnarovan’s dog back in England let out a howl and dropped dead.
The press around the world had become obsessed by the idea Carnarvon was killed by a pharaoh’s curse. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle publically endorsed the idea.
A Los Angeles Times leader wrote — “No matter how little superstitious a man may be, the act of breaking the rest so carefully guarded through the centuries must cause an emotion which time can never efface”.
More deaths were to follow. A few weeks after Carnarvon’s death, Carter gave wealthy financier George J Gould a private tour of he tomb. Soon after, Gould came down with a fever and died.
Other early tomb visitors died violent or strange deaths within the year. Prince Ali Kemal Fahmy Bey and South African millionaire Woolf Joel were both murdered and British MP Aubrey Herbert went blind and died of blood poisoning.
Carter and his workers remove the treasures — did they provoke the pharaoh’s wrath?
Hebert’s death was particularly tragic for the Carnarvon family as he was Lord Carnarvon’s half brother. He had reported on entering the burial chamber — “something dreadful is going to happen to our family”.
Perhaps the press were right? Within months, a disparate group of characters from around the world were all dead after visiting the tomb.
The following year, 1924, would only fuel the speculation. In January, Sir Archibald Douglas-Reid, who had x-rayed King Tutankhamun’s body, died from a mysterious illness.
E. Evelyn-White was next. The young British archeologist was one of the first to enter the tomb after Carter. After writing — “I have succumbed to a curse” in his own blood, he hung himself.
Sir Lee Stack, governor of Sudan, was also amongst the earliest visitors to the pharaoh’s tomb. Later that year he too met a violent end, shot dead on the streets of Cairo by an assassin.
The next year one of the most peculiar stories surrounding the curse hit the news-stands. Howard Carter had given his close friend, Sir Bruce Ingham, a paperweight made from a mummified hand wearing a scarab bracelet.
The dig site has notable visitors from all around the world.
Inscribed upon the bracelet were the words — “cursed be he who moves my body. To him shall come fire, water and pestilence”. Soon after, Ingham’s house burnt down. When it was rebuilt, it flooded.
In 1926, George Benedite of the Louvre museum died shortly after visiting the tomb. Another Egyptologist, Aaron Ember, also died that year in a curious fire at his home.
After Howard Carter himself, the main archeologist to excavate Tutankhamun’s tomb was A. C. Mace. Mace spent years on the dig and co-authored the first book about discovery with Carter.
In 1928, after complaining of increasing weakness, he collapsed. He died shortly later, seemingly of arsenic poisoning, in the same hospital as Lord Carnarvon.
1929 saw two particularly strange deaths. As Howard Carter’s personal secretary, Richard Bethell was present at the opening of the burial chamber in 1923. He was found in November, smothered to death in his bed.
A few months later, Bethel’s father Baron Westbury jumped from his seventh floor flat in a delirium. The flat contained artifacts from the dig, obtained by his late son. Westbury’s suicide note read — “I really cannot stand any more horrors and hardly see what good I am going to do here, so I am making my exit”.
Finally in 1929, Lord Carnarvon’s other half brother died from ‘malarial pneumonia’.
Within 6 years of the discovery, Carnarvon, both his half brothers, Carter’s chief archeologist, his personal secretary and his father, the excavation’s radiologist and at least half a dozen other prominent individuals who visited the tomb were all dead.
Was it down to vivid imaginations and a lot of coincidences, or did this rash of deaths have a more sinister cause? | 2019-04-20T18:19:56Z | https://www.markhoward.co.za/curse-of-tutankhamun/ |

To conceptualise & create a luxurious, lavish & seemingly decadent pie brand was the brief presented to us. Innovative packaging, encouraging a gratifying experience to the consumer was of paramount importance in promoting the true extravagance of this new brand.
‘Eden’ meaning delight, finery & luxury is more commonly famous for the paradisiacal garden in which Adam & Eve lived. Is is often said that the Garden of Eden is marked by four beautiful rivers, adjoining together, enabling the vast virility & fertility of this area of unsurpassed natural beauty.
Following the design of the primary work marque & logo asset, we set about considering the look & feel of the packaging graphics. Inspired by the natural balance of nature, coupled with the serenity of the Garden of Eden – represented through the simple, eye catching, symmetrical graphic device. We introduced monotone iconography / imagery to effectively differentiate the product variants within the range. ‘On pack’ messaging, relating the Eden & Bridge brand story, was devised to encourage an emotional connection with the brand.

Description: The orthogonal polynomials (OP) are very useful tools in solving problems not only in Mathematics but also in Physics and Engineering. Among them, the classical orthogonal polynomials (COP) deserve a special attention. The main reasons are, from my point of view, from one hand the fact that they are polynomials (therefore there is easy to handle with) and from the other, they have an orthogonality property that have a lot of interesting consequences (for example, the three-term recurrence relations that the OP satisfy that is the best way of numerically compute them). In this talk I will discuss some of the application of classical orthogonal polynomials in several branches of Physics and Mathematical-Physics from my own experience of the last 25 years. | 2019-04-21T16:03:40Z | https://cmuc.mat.uc.pt/rdonweb/event/showPPSeminar.do?seminarID=1759 |
Although I want the Dodgers to win in tonight’s World Series game I look forward to watching pitcher Craig Kimbrel of the Boston Red Sox come in as a relief pitcher. I enjoyed watching Craig pitch last night. He has such an unusual stance for pre-pitch stare for the catcher’s signals. Kimbrel said he used to keep his arm behind his back, but that became too painful when he had biceps tendinitis. So he started holding it out to the side. .
I dew on my iPad while watching the first game of the World Series. Top of the second inning Dodgers Matt Kemp hits a solo home run over the Green Monster. It was a good start for the Dodgers but their defensive playing did not hold up through the game.
This scuba diver headed towards the water while his partner was already in the surf off of one of the jetties near Sanjon Road in Ventura. It seemed to be an odd place for divers to go although the other diver had a spear for fishing.
Yasiel Puig hits a three-run scoring home run to deep left center to give the Dodgers a 5-1 lead over the Milwaukee Brewers. This will probably hold up for the win and a trip to the World Series. This is a second drawing today of the inktober 31 day drawing challenge to do a drawing a day for 31 days. All the other drawings are on paper but I am watching the Dodgers / Brewers 7th game and thought I would try a drawing on my IPad.
Kitesurfer. Emma Wood State Beach. This beach is just a little further up from surfer’s point and the river mouth. The wind is a bit better there for kite surfing.
When on the beach in Venice Ca. A few weeks ago I noticed that the LA County lifeguard towers are different than the lifeguard towers in Ventura Co. This tower is at the Ventura pier. You can see the difference if you look st my earlier drawing post a couple of weeks ago.
This ”stand up paddle boarder was walking along the promenade just past “c” Street heading out for a nice day in the soft surf. Temp today 75 degrees and sunny with light wind. Another day in paradise with few people out. Mid work week does keep the amount of people at the beach down - although this is part of my work. I guess I shouldn’t call it that. | 2019-04-26T01:54:54Z | https://www.johnrobertsoncredibleart.com/www.johnrobertsonsportsart.com/?category=Ca |

I had lessons with Andy Kirby Since the end of last year. I never took to driving a manual very well at all and stopped driving back when I was 17. I restarted at 24 last year. Andy was always very patient with me and helped me nail the reverse to the left which I particularly struggled with. I passed my test last week all thanks to Andy. It may have taken me longer than others but he never gave up on me. | 2019-04-26T14:19:42Z | https://www.elitelessons.co.uk/andy-kirby/243-meghan-hinch-pullborough-west-sussex.html |

The Coming Envelope Issue 8 features new fiction by 5 writers: Jacob Wren, Cynthia Girard, John Goldbach, Oisín Curran, and Lucy Ives.
Girard: I need to pierce a hole in my head or else it’s going to explode. I spent some time this morning looking for a bit, I wanted to drill a hole the size of a quarter above my ear on the side of my head.
Curran: The sea was immobile and from it there rose a diminutive island of bare yellow rock. Its crest was at least as high, I thought, as my nest, and its cliffs were as straight as the mast below me.
Ives: Weather was his fiend, but most of the time he was lucky. His consolation was a sculpture garden created during the years of the lunatic’s absence. | 2019-04-20T03:24:32Z | https://artmetropole.com/shop/10831 |
Thomas Jefferson Kitts | Blog: The "Big Five" . . .
The "Big Five" . . .
Discounting the need for the painter to simplify, compose, and edit what they see, my short list holds true. It goes beyond the idea of overtly developing a style, or mannerism–two things I personally abhor. The list bridges almost every genre of painting, excluding the Primitive, the Naive, and Outsider Art.
But what do these five things do in a painting? And why are they so important for us artists to remember as we work?
Let's start with this painting of mine: "Lavender and Persimmons". It's a small painting, 12 x 9 inches, but there is a lot going on anyway.
It contains all of the Big Five within a single painting.
Value is largely responsible for creating the sense of form we see in a painting. Value distinctions create the solidarity, the weight in a painting. Correctly assigned values push the planes of a subject forward or backward into their proper place within the picture plane. Value is also responsible for dividing what part of a subject falls into the light mass and what part falls off into the dark mass, and when any transitional value isn't correctly associated with its adjacent neighbors–meaning, a value appears out of context–the anomaly disrupts the form. That rogue value destroys the illusion. In addition, misinterpreting a group of values will also disrupt the form if the painter takes that range of values too dark, or too light, and leaves out enough transitional values between the two extremes. In other words, the two groups remain disconnected.
Hue may seem easy to get a grip on at first, but often a novice painter will assign the wrong temperature to a hue. Yellow and Blue inarguably have a pronounced difference in their warm and cool temperature, but both contain a range of cool and warm within their respective hue. It's important to keep in mind that there will always be warmer and cooler version expressed within a single hue. For example, in the detail to the right, the darker yellow hue leans towards the orange (warm), and, as it goes up in value the hue shifts towards the green (cool). So, one temperature will always be more correct to use within a particular circumstance than is the other. But wait. There's more: the same holds true for any Hue in the color wheel. Or, to get a tad more complicated with this explanation, if a warm version of a hue–say, our warm yellow–is carelessly placed into passage containing only cool versions of other Hues, the same separation or disconnect will result. The warm yellow will visually float or project off the surface you wanted it to sit on. Nothing you try next will link the two patches of color together. You have to adjust the temperature to fix it.
Chroma (or, again, Saturation or Intensity) also comes into play. If a (mixed) hue is too intense for the area it is being placed into, that hue will not associate with its neighboring color. It will disconnect from the surface of the painting much like an ill-considered value does. To the right I show a detail of the green pot as it turns into the shadow. Its saturation has been matched to the dark-reddish shadow of the cloth emerging into the light. (and creating a low chroma, red/green complementary hue contrast, BTW.) If either dark passage was more intense than the other then neither dark would connect or link.
But what about the last two, Shape and Edges?
Shape is simply a matter of accurate drawing. Or, to be more precise, of being able to recreating the undulating planes which follow the surface of your subject. Accurate drawing is a hard-won, learned skill. It is not an innate talent and cultivating it takes time, effort, and perseverance. You must sweat yourself through it. You don't learn how to draw from knowing everything there is to know about graphite, ink, charcoal, and paper. You learn to draw from drawing and this means looking. Preferably from life and not from a photograph. (I will offer some advice on how the novice draftsperson may improve their skills in a later post, but let's not forget: drawing requires time spent drawing, and not talking about drawing. So don't wait. Start drawing now!) The top of the persimmon bends, folds, and curls because I reduced all of that into simpler shapes that blend together giving the illusion that the top bends, folds, and curls. It isn't any more complicated than that.
Edges are often the least considered part of a painting. If they are considered at all. Unfortunately, I see many paintings where the artist has made little or no effort to vary the edge quality in their painting and an inchoate lumpiness is a result. This is not to say that all edges should be crisply defined. No, no, no. It is to say there should be a variety of hard and soft edges offered up to the viewer all within the painting. Because lost and found edges are more visually interesting than having everything equally defined by the artist. A painter should vary their edgework with intent and not happenstance, and make it all part of the story they are trying to tell. Good edgework can become one of the most interesting and involving aspects of a painting, and it can used to lead the viewer's eye to the artist's intended compositional climax. Edgework can be used soften the brittleness of over-rendering. Also, a contrast of loose and hard edges can literally convey a sense of motion or the passage of time. How a painter deals with their edges reveals the presence of their hand and thus it become an identifiable signature as much as the name you find down in the lower corner. And finally–and perhaps the most important thing to consider–accomplished edgework is what still separates a painting from a photographic image, a distinction I find increasingly compelling as digital technology continues to march on.
So, the next time you look at a grand painting, spend a little time looking at how the artist handled the Big Five. Or, spend some time looking at these paintings below. Compare what the artists did, or didn't do with their Value, Hue, Chroma, Shapes, and Edgework. You may be surprised at what the differences are, and what they all have in common . . .
Good one, Thomas! I'm looking forward to coming back to review this a little more while painting.
Sure Quinn: Hope you find this post illuminating. However, even though I reduced things to the Big Five, my explanations of each one is quite abbreviated. Let me know if my 'splaining was unclear.
Thanks for sharing Thomas. I'm guilty of not doing edges. I often don't know how to attack edges. I'm afraid of making a good painting into a worsened smudge work of mud. So I tend to leave almost all my edges in their original deposited forms. | 2019-04-19T11:02:13Z | http://www.thomaskitts.com/2010/09/big-five.html |

1. Start early. Going into work early was one of my favorite tricks — it was quiet, before the phones and chatter and meetings started, and I could get a lot of work done in peace. By the time everyone else was getting started, I’d gotten two or three big tasks checked off.
2. Limit your hours. It’s ironic, because so many people work long hours and think they’re getting more done and being more productive. But they’re throwing brute hours at the problem. Instead, cut back on your hours and set a limit — say 6 or 7 hours a day — and get your most essential work done within that limit. If you know you’re only working 6 hours today, you’ll be sure to get the important tasks done first and waste less time. Limits force you to be effective.
3. Make a short list. Make a long list of all the tasks you need to do … then make a short list of 1-3 things you really want to get done. Choose so that, if you got only these tasks done, you’d be proud of what you did today. Start with the most important task, before checking email or reading online.
4. Batch distractions. What are your common distractions? Perhaps things like email, reading blogs, Twitter or another social network? Set a time for these, preferably later in the day: say, from 3-4 p.m. Don’t do the distractions before then. By grouping them all into one time period, you allow yourself to do other work first, but still get in your distraction time. Another approach might be to do them for 10 minutes at the end of each hour — but stick to that 10-minute limit!
5. Write shorter emails. If email takes up a lot of your day, the simple change of limiting yourself to 3-4 sentences per email will make a big difference. First, it’ll drastically shorten the time it takes to write or respond to emails. And second, it’ll shorten responses to your emails, which means you’ll spend less time reading email.
6. Limit meetings. The fewer the better. Some top Google executives just do 5-minute meetings — anyone who attends these meetings had better be prepared, and concise. If you can get out of meetings and just get the notes, or find an alternative way to communicate, it could save you hours per week.
7. Automate. The fewer repetitive and routine tasks you have to do, the more time you’ll free up for creating and important work. So automate wherever possible: have people fill things out electronically, or get info from your website instead of emailing or calling you, or use a service that automatically processes payments or ships your product, and so on.
8. Eliminate paperwork. I used to deal with a lot of paperwork, and even then I knew it was a waste of my time. If businesses and organizations could have paperwork filled out electronically, it would save a lot of paper, copying, filing, and duplicate effort. Whenever possible, eliminate paperwork in favor of digital. This might be more of a long-term move.
9. Clear your desk. This can be done in a few minutes. Clear everything off the top of your desk. Only put back a few essential items. Everything else should be: filed, given to the appropriate person, given a permanent spot in a drawer, or trashed/recycled. Make quick decisions and then get back to work.
10. Get away. If you can get out of your office, you can find a peaceful spot where you can focus on important work. Find a spot where you can work, turn off the Internet and do your work, and then turn the Internet back on so you can email or upload it to the appropriate spot. Working from home is a good option here. The more you can do this (it might be once a week, or an hour a day, or half of every workday), the better.
11. Take breathing breaks. Every 15-20 minutes, get up from your desk, and take a breathing break. It could be simply walking around the office, saying hi to someone, or even better, getting outside to get some fresh air. Walk around, get your blood circulating, perhaps massage your neck and shoulders if you feel tension. Do some pushups if you want to get fitter. When you get back to work, remind yourself what you want to be working on, and clear away all distractions.
12. Practice a focus ritual. Every hour or two, do a refocus ritual. This only takes a minute or two. You might start it by closing down your browser and maybe other open applications, and maybe even take a walk for a couple of minutes to clear your head and get your blood circulating. Then return to your list of Most Important Tasks and figure out what you need to accomplish next. Before you check email again or go back online, work on that important task for as long as you can. Repeat this refocus ritual throughout the day, to bring yourself back. It’s also nice to take some nice deep breaths to focus yourself back on the present. More focus rituals.
13. Schedule big blocks of creative time. Not everyone can do this, but when possible, put a big block of 3-4 hours in your schedule for creating or doing other important work. Make this time inviolate, and don’t allow meetings or other things to be scheduled during this time. Be ruthless about clearing distractions and doing the work you love during these blocks, taking breathing breaks as necessary.

Improper Truck Maintenance Lawyers South Jersey | Andres & Berger, P.C.
Owners of trucks, whether a sole practitioner who owns one rig or a trucking company that owns a fleet, have a legal duty to maintain all vehicles before allowing the trucks to go out on the roads. This is true when the trucks are making local deliveries or cross-country hauls. When truck owners fail to abide by US Department of Transportation (DOT) guidelines, the resulting accidents and injuries are often catastrophic.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident caused by a truck or equipment that was not properly maintained, you may be able to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. At The Law Offices of Andres & Berger, P.C., we have been fighting for the rights of injured clients in New Jersey for many years. We leave no stone unturned as we analyze what caused the trucking accident and uncover all areas of liability to maximize your compensation. Call our Haddonfield office today for a free consultation.
The DOT’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Division is quite clear about guidelines that trucking companies must follow when maintaining fleets of trucks – including 18-wheelers, semis, big rigs, tractor trailers, box trucks, etc. Not only are there lengthy lists of specific pieces of equipment that must be checked constantly, but regular entries must be made in log books at the beginning and ending of every shift and throughout the maintenance process.
Were tires properly inflated or did lack of proper inflation cause a blowout?
Was the truck driver unable to see other cars on the road due to dim or dirty headlights?
Did the truck have reflective tape so it could be easily seen by others in the darkness of night?
Did improperly positioned or cracked mirrors cause the driver to fail to see other cars on the road?
Were brakes and hydraulics maintained so they would work properly in all road conditions?
Were all door locks in proper working order so doors couldn’t fly open and release cargo at highway speeds?
At The Law Offices of Andres & Berger, P.C., we are experienced truck accident attorneys who will investigate your accident with the help of crash reconstruction specialists and other investigators. We will get to the bottom of what caused your accident and hold all parties liable for negligence — including the manufacturer of the truck part, the installation company, the mechanics and the trucking company itself.
When you or someone you love has been injured in any type of accident, it’s completely understandable that you may be feeling overwhelmed. After all, you are likely in pain, stressed over mounting medical bills and feeling angry about the fact that a trucking company put profits before people and didn’t maintain their trucks as per the law.
We can help get you the justice you want and deserve, as well as the compensation you need. At The Law Offices of Andres & Berger, P.C., we’ve won millions of dollars in damages for people injured in truck accidents caused by myriad factors, including drunk truck drivers, fatigued truckers, trucking company negligence and more. Contact us today for a free consultation about your NJ truck accident. There are no upfront legal fees and if we don’t collect damages for you, you won’t pay us anything. | 2019-04-24T13:50:42Z | https://www.andresberger.com/personal-injury-lawyers/trucking-accident-lawyers/improper-truck-maintenance/ |

Crested Butte residents have justifiable pride at being there at the beginning of mountain biking. While the sport has a short history, that history is just a little bit longer in Crested Butte than in most places.
The singletrack that literally drops you off on the streets of Crested Butte is plentiful. It’s common for people to ride straight from the trail to downtown. That’s why you’ll see so many bikes overflowing the racks in towns at the best apres bars.
Beyond that easy-access trail, there are hundreds of miles more to explore just a short distance away. Ride the roads from town, drive to a trailhead, or even link up the town singletrack to other trails a little farther away to maximize your time on the dirt.
The CB apres bike scene is so good that even if you finish a ride on Strand, you may drive from the Brush Creek Trailhead to Crested Butte just to hang out there.
With bars, patios, and coffeeshops up and down Elk, it’s just a great spot to chill. You’ll also be the only one who cares that you’re still in your chamois and bike shoes. Covered in mud? No problem. Image isn’t a big deal here. People are more likely to check out your bike than your fashion. | 2019-04-23T23:55:58Z | https://mtbhome.com/the-scene/the-towns/crested-butte/ |

Human road safety signs for parking parents.
A campaign to stop parents parking in front of schools creating lethal 'blind spots' for other drivers has been stepped up. The practice by school run parents dropping off or collecting their children has been recognised as a potential killer for years. In the past, hefty fines, extra traffic wardens and even the use of 'name and shame' snapshots have been used to deter persistent offenders. Now a new tactic is being employed in Swansea.
Schools are erecting giant banners outside their gates depicting children lying down on yellow zig zag road markings.

(Why) Does Video Marketing Work?
Video marketing is the hottest term and trend online right now. And things get even hotter when talking about Facebook’s new 360 view and Virtual Realty. But can real, measurable results actually live up to this hurricane of hype? Summits, software, and sales teams have all suddenly shown up attempting to increase your video marketing budget. Every day a new Twitter headline promises higher open rates, brand retention, or more sales via online video marketing.
Okay, yes I too clicked on the whitepaper lead-gen link above. But hold on a sec, us marketers get promised a new Holy Grail platform every few days. Someone has got to do their due diligence this time and cut through the noise and blowing our budgets. Let’s actually figure out the why this time before we go after the how so we can adjust based on our brand’s needs.
The Why of How Video Marketing Improves Your Brand’s Goals.
Creates the All-Important Emotional Experience – The cliche is that pictures are worth a thousand words. It turns out that moving pictures telling stories are worth much more than that. According to Forrester Research’s Dr. James McQuivey, “a minute of video is worth 1.8 million words.” But why? Because, per a different study by neuroscientist Professor Paul Zak, telling a story through video taps into powerful neurochemicals that create the building blocks of a marketer’s best friend – true emotion. Cortisol, which focuses our attention on something important, and Oxytocin, which is involved in social bonding and feelings of trust. Thereby, telling a good story creates attention, trust, and empathy. These are the seeds of creating a true emotional connection. Emotional connection is the key to creating loyal customers.
“The biometric results demonstrate conclusively that higher video resolution significantly increases engagement with digital advertising,” PlayCollective’s CEO J. Alison Bryant.
By ensuring quality production values, your customer will be able to engage more easily and more deeply with brand.
Show, don’t tell – most people keep the sound off on their devices, so engage your audience with great images.
Play with story structure – changing up a linear narrative can cause a viewer to ask, “what is going on here?” which causes them to want to know more, which leads to deeper engagement. If fact, studies show that when stories are edited non-linearly for mobile, viewers tend to watch longer than expected.
Be responsive – yes, answer all comments, but also be sure to publish on multiple platforms. And when you do, be sure those platforms are design responsive.
If your content isn’t mobile ready it could not only lose your audience’s attention but Google search love too. Many believe that the latest Google search algorithm update may punish those whose site is not ready for mobile viewership.
Makes Customers Feel More Productive – By creating clear, engaging, visual stories on video, you will potentially save your viewer time while they consume more of your content. One of the biggest learnings from being a content marketer is that most people don’t actually read (if you’re still with us here, that’s pretty awesome, thanks)! But, by showing a video instead of writing lots of content, you’ll get deeper, faster engagement with more of your message getting through. Brevity will always be the soul of wit.
Must Have Goals and Measuring – No marketing campaign should be launched without clear goals, KPIs, target metrics, etc. Be clear in what you expect out of your campaign and have the right tools in place to measure those expectations. Just like any other marketing plan you create, the devil is in the details to make it work. Be sure to keep your focus on who your customer is, where they live online, what specifically does success look like, and most importantly: test before publishing that you have a quality visual story that elicits the right emotional response from your audience.
See another stat right there. But, by creating a quality video that reaches your target audience in the places they are online, you will psychologically foster the beginnings of an in-person and emotional experience. By learning from the results and then creating more quality videos, you can scale that experience.
Then, video marketing is well worth the time and cost investment based on your specific brand goals. | 2019-04-22T10:12:06Z | https://emotionstudios.com/why-does-video-marketing-really-work/ |

View this presentation to learn about the challenges Cisco IT has solved by implementing cloud management and orchestration technology to provide internal private cloud services to the end user.
If we’ve described the problem in the current economics of the data center, what does the future of IT look like? For many, it is best represented by the world of many clouds. This is what will allow IT to deliver services back to the business as opposed to being considered a cost center. If IT can make the shift towards more of these innovative projects, they stand a much better change of transitioning to IT as a Service and cloud. By harnessing the power of public, private, hybrid clouds or traditional data centers, they can more rapidly deliver value to the business. Although many customers will start with private clouds, which deliver pivotal functionality to they will also want to choose from offerings available to them via the public cloud. This has the benefit of eliminating the need for shadow IT that so many groups end up creating. It may not surprise you to realize that service providers around the world are launching their cloud services based on a Cisco Unified Data Center.
This diagram depicts the key elements from a management standpoint that are required for IT-as-a-Service, regardless of the business applications and IT services delivered – whether it’s for a dev and test environment for your SAP applications team or a production environment for Oracle database hosting. This framework is similar to the architecture for private cloud recommended by analysts firms like Gartner and Forrester. We’re not trying to replicate all of the existing IT management systems (like your existing service desk / ticketing systems and CMDB) that you use to run your legacy data center environments. Instead, this diagram represents the new capabilities necessary for IT-as-a-Service; the mandatory requirements for this new approach include a self-service portal and orchestration, together with policy-based infrastructure resource management.At the top level of the diagram you have the self-service portal, with on-demand provisioning from a catalog of standardized IT options, governance and approvals, as well as tracking the lifecycle of service usage to prevent sprawl and to enable chargeback or showback. This portal can provide users with a unified online “menu” of options for requesting IT services, whether the infrastructure resources are hosted in your own data centers or potentially sourced externally in a hybrid cloud model.From an automation and integration standpoint, you need to combine the portal with an orchestration engine that can provision the requested service and the underlying infrastructure – with policy-based infrastructure resource management and controls across a shared pool of compute, storage, and network resources, whether physical or virtual.And finally, although IT-as-a-Service demands a new approach, it must complement your legacy systems and management tools. So this new management approach needs to integrate with the existing IT environment for operational processes including monitoring and service assurance, configuration management and a CMDB, as well as business processes like user management in your directory systems and financial management - whether you start with a showback model or evolve to pay-per-use billing and chargeback.
The impact for our customers is taking what was very long and complex legacy management process – that can take weeks for end-to-end, often manual delivery of a request, from the upfront architecture and design of the system to the deployment – to minutes in an automated self-service provisioning environment.And this is exactly what we did at Cisco IT, which deployed Cisco UCS and Nexus – together with Cisco Intelligent Automation for their private cloud. | 2019-04-18T11:14:18Z | https://www.slideshare.net/Ciscodatacenter/cisco-it-private-cloud-case-study-with-cisco-management-and-orchestration-kschroed-final |

This is your journey. The path is up to you.
Single and middle-aged, beautiful Irene (Margarita Buy) is wholly devoted to her job as an inspector of luxury hotels. Constantly on the road, she indulges in expensive pleasures at impeccable resorts, but always incognito and alone, soon escaping to the next exotic destination with her checklist and laptop in tow. When her best friend and ex, Andrea (Stefano Accorsi), who has always been a source of emotional support, suddenly becomes unavailable, Irene is thrown into a deep existential crisis. "Luxury is a form of deceit," she is told by a fellow traveller in the fog of a steam room, and thus begins Irene's quest to bring more meaning into her life. | 2019-04-18T13:19:59Z | https://everyfad.com/movie/a-five-star-life-2013 |

Travel back in time to the 1940s as you enjoy this touching tale of four women separated by distance but united in the struggles and challenges of living in a war-torn world. This story gives us a close look at the personal experiences of these ladies as they learn to be strong on their own and for one another. | 2019-04-21T00:13:53Z | https://www.hcpress.com/front-page/ensemble-stage-2016.html |
For other uses, see Dominance (disambiguation).
One wolf (right) asserting dominance over another (left) with a threat display – the teeth are bared, the ears are flattened against the body and the hackles are raised, whereas the submissive wolf lowers its head and turns away to appease the dominant individual.
Dominance in ethology is an "individual's preferential access to resources over another". Dominance in the context of biology and anthropology is the state of having high social status relative to one or more other individuals, who react submissively to dominant individuals. This enables the dominant individual to obtain access to resources such as food or potential mates at the expense of the submissive individual, without active aggression. The absence or reduction of aggression means unnecessary energy expenditure and the risk of injury are reduced for both. The opposite of dominance is submissiveness.
Dominance may be a purely dyadic relationship, i.e. individual A is dominant over individual B, but this has no implications for whether either of these is dominant over a third individual C. Alternatively, dominance may be hierarchical, with a transitive relationship, so that if A dominates B and B dominates C, A always dominates C. This is called a linear dominance hierarchy. Some animal societies have despots, i.e. a single dominant individual with little or no hierarchical structure amongst the rest of the group. Horses use coalitions so that affiliated pairs in a herd have an accumulative dominance to displace a third horse that normally out-ranks both of them on an individual basis.
Dominance may initially be established by fighting, or simply by threatening displays or interchanges. Once established, however, dominance is usually maintained by agonistic (competitive) behaviours with aggression considerably reduced or sometimes absent. In the maintenance of dominance relationships, the behaviour of the sub-dominant animal is critical. If a dominant animal perceives its status is being threatened, it will likely threaten the sub-dominant individual. The sub-dominant must then either escalate the intensity of the interaction to challenge the dominant, or defer. In this way, it is often the behaviour of the sub-dominant animal that maintains the dominance relationship, rather than the dominant.
The ultimate function of a dominance hierarchy is to increase the individual or inclusive fitness of the animals involved in its formation. Fighting to acquire resources such as food and mates is expensive in terms of time, energy and the risk of injury. By developing a dominance hierarchy, animals determine which individuals will get priority of access to resources, particularly when they are limited; there is a reduction in aggression once a pecking order has been developed. Therefore, the proximate functions of a pecking order are to reduce the costs of time, energy and risk of injury incurred during resource acquisition and defense.
A dominant animal is one whose sexual, feeding, aggressive and other behavior patterns subsequently occur with relatively little influence of the other group members. Subordinate animals are opposite; their behavior can be relatively easily influenced or inhibited by other group members. For many animal societies, an individual's position in the dominance hierarchy corresponds with their opportunities to reproduce, however, in other animal societies, the dominance hierarchy may be unrelated to (potential) opportunities to reproduce, e.g. naked mole-rat, bees and many farm, laboratory, zoo and companion animals. Studies have shown there is a strong association between high testosterone levels and dominance behaviors that help enhance mating success in men.
In hierarchical societies, dominant individuals may exert control over others. For example, in a herd of feral goats it is a large male that is dominant and maintains discipline and coherence of the flock. He leads the group but shares leadership on a foraging expedition with an old she-goat who will normally outlast a succession of dominant males. However, earlier work showed that leadership orders in goats was not related to age or dominance.
In sheep, position in a moving flock is highly correlated with social dominance, but there is no definite study to show consistent voluntary leadership by an individual sheep.
It has been suggested, however, that more commonly, decision-taking about the actions of the group is dissociated from social dominance.
The first published systematic study of dominance in animals was by Thorleif Schjelderup-Ebbe who described in his Ph.D. dissertation of 1921, the social behaviour and priority of access to food by hens. This led to the colloquial term "pecking order" describing the hierarchical system of social organization in chickens, although it is sometimes loosely applied to other animals.
Dominance can be measured by the number of times that individuals defer to one another in social interactions, by the length of time that resources are preferentially accessed, by the number/intensity of threats given or other agonistic (competitive) behaviours. The measurement of dominance is only applicable within the group it is measured since it is a function of the individual members of the group.
Eringer cattle competing for dominance.
Dominance and its organisation can be highly variable depending on the context or individuals involved.
In European badgers, dominance relationships may vary with time as individuals age, gain or lose social status, or change their reproductive condition. Dominance may also vary across space in territorial animals as territory owners are often dominant over all others in their own territory but submissive elsewhere, or dependent on the resource. Even with these factors held constant, perfect dominance hierarchies are rarely found in groups of any great size, at least in the wild. Dominance hierarchies may be more frequently found in captivity, since hierarchies tend to be induced by focused resources such as limited supplies of food supplied in a fixed place.
Dominance hierarchies in small herds of domestic horses are generally linear hierarchies whereas in large herds the relationships are triangular.
Dominance hierarchies can be formed at a very early age. Domestic piglets are highly precocious and within minutes of being born, or sometimes seconds, will attempt to suckle. The piglets are born with sharp teeth and fight to develop a teat order as the anterior teats produce a greater quantity of milk. Once established, this teat order remains stable with each piglet tending to feed from a particular teat or group of teats.
Dominance–subordination relationships can vary markedly between breeds of the same species. Studies on Merinos and Border Leicesters revealed an almost linear hierarchy in the Merinos but a less rigid structure in the Border Leicesters when a competitive feeding situation was created.

From the next winter season, the new Jochbahn, the fastest chairlift in the world, will start operating on the Brixner Sonnseite (“Sunny Side”). Detachable, comfortable and unbelievably fast: at a speed of 6 metres per second (previously 2.4), the new Jochbahn will be transporting 3,000 passengers per hour, offering not only more speed and comfort, but also doubling the skiing pleasure just as before. Opening in time for the 2015/16 winter season.
The Jochbahn deploys not just the very latest technology, but the route has been extended too. The new valley station is situated at the same level as Gasthof Nieding, so the lift is now more than double its previous length. But courtesy of this new technology, the journey time is considerably less compared to the old lift. There's a solar panel farm covering 180 sq.m (on the south side of the chair garage) and this has an important role in ensuring that the energy supply for new lift is sustainable.
Brixen im Thale is investing in total around 12 million euros in this project. | 2019-04-25T14:07:35Z | https://www.skiwelt.at/en/fastest-8seater-chairlift-in-the-world.html |
URBANA, Ill., May 5, 2010 -- Linda A. Mills, corporate vice president and president of Northrop Grumman Corporation's (NYSE:NOC) Information Systems Sector, recently received the Alumni Award for Distinguished Service from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign's College of Engineering in recognition of her outstanding leadership and management in providing critical, large-scale information technology services to military, government, and corporate clients.
Mills received her master of science in computer science from the University of Illinois in 1973.
The ceremony, honoring a number of outstanding students, faculty, and distinguished alumni, was held on April 30 in the University's Alice Campbell Alumni Center. During her remarks, Mills reflected on her experiences at the College of Engineering and how they prepared her for a career in the technology field.
"The University of Illinois continues to be a leader in innovation â introducing students like me to emerging technologies and cutting edge projects," said Mills.

Prom season is right around the corner and chances are you have the dress, the shoes, and maybe even your look. But things can go wrong. Lipstick on your dress, staticy hair, or maybe even those dreaded black flakes under your eyes. How do you keep your look together all night? Well, we have 12 pro beauty prom tips that will keep you cool, comfortable, and completely together during your big night!
Brighten Your Smile– 2 weeks before prom, start using a whitening toothpaste. Brush for at least two minutes and also refrain from cola, tea, and coffee. Those drinks stain your teeth.
Pimp Your Glow– If you are wearing a strapless dress add some lotion with glimmer to your shoulders, back, and chest. For extra radiance use a bronzing powder. If you want to go all out with the sparkle, FX has some amazing glitter drops. They are kind of steep in price but one drop goes a long way!
Keep Smelling Sweet All Night– This may sound weird but use a tiny, tiny bit of vaseline on the areas you spritz your perfume. It gives the perfume a base to hold onto and keeps the scent all night long. Looking for a new scent for prom? Check out Aveda’s LOVE composition oil. It is made with indigenous-collected Australian sandalwood and certified organic jasmine, vetiver and frankincense. It will keep you smelling sweet all night long.
Fill In Your Brows– Even if you don’t do it normally. Brows can really complete your face and make your makeup 10 times better. Plus, they look better in the 100 selfies you will take during the night. If you are not sure how to fill them in, come in to see one of our student specialists for a lesson!
Keep Your Eyeshadow On Fleek– Use cream eyeshadow instead of powder for a more intensified look. If you are worried it will melt off, use a thin layer of concealer under it. If you want to be a pro, use eyeshadow primer as a base. This prevents melting as well as creasing.
Finish Your Look With Setting Spray- Set your makeup with setting spray so it will stay put all night!
Don’t Avoid Fake Eyelashes– You don’t have to do full strips or even get them professionally done. Just cut the strips in half and add the lashes to the corner of your eyes for a flirty and easy look!
Keep Shadow Flakes At Bay– We have all been there. You have perfected your foundation and your eyeshadow, then you look in the mirror and see the dreaded flakes under your eyes. Usually, it is your shadow or mascara. Don’t try to rub them off or worse, wipe them. Use just a small piece of painter tape to gently dab them off. You will save your makeup!
Brush Your Lips– Remove dry skin flakes from your lips by using a gentle lip scrub and clean toothbrush. It will help your lipstick go on better. To reduce creasing or wrinkles, use Aveda’s Feed My Lips Primer before your lipstick.
Make Your Teeth Look Whiter– Lipsticks with blue undertones will make your teeth appear whiter. Choose Plums, cherry, reds, purply pinks, or any shade with a silvery shimmer. Aveda’s Nourish-Mint Cherrybud is a perfect choice! Not only does it look great, it smells great by infusing organic peppermint, vanilla, and ginger into the lipstick. Not sure it will look good on you? Stop by Aveda Institute Maryland and try it out!
Do A Deep Conditioning Treatment– If you are wearing your hair down you will want it to look soft and shiny. That is why you need a deep conditioning treatment. Not only will it make your hair soft but it will also tame frizzies and keep it tame. Aveda has an amazing deep conditioning treatment for $25 that will make your hair amazing for prom night!
Spray Your Bobby Pins With Hairspray– If you are wearing your hair up, spray your bobby pins with a little hairspray before putting them in your hair. This will make them grip better and stay in your hair, keeping your updo up all night!
Looking for a Prom Pamper party? Aveda Institute Maryland has you covered! You can get your hair, nails, and makeup done for your big day! Our student stylists will help you decide on a look and then make you beautiful! Don’t delay, call and make an appointment today and don’t forget to invite your friends so it will be a huge party!

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Left-hander TJ Sikkema struck out 10 and allowed one run on three hits over seven innings to lift Missouri to a 4-1 win Saturday over eighth-ranked LSU, tying the Southeastern Conference baseball series at a win apiece.
The rubber match between LSU (24-12 overall, 9-5 SEC) and Missouri (24-12-1, 6-7-1) is Sunday at Noon. The game will be broadcast over the LSU Sports Radio Network (WDGL-98.1 FM in Baton Rouge) and televised on the SEC Network.
Missouri defeated LSU for the first time in eight meetings at Columbia and just the second time in 17 matchups overall. The other Mizzou victory was March 17, 2018, at Alex Box Stadium.
Henry allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits in 6.1 innings. He struck out five and threw 91 pitches (59 strikes). | 2019-04-20T06:22:28Z | https://crescentcitysports.com/pitching-strong-for-missouri-in-4-1-win-over-no-8-lsu-to-even-series/ |

Jancon Exteriors also offers new door installation in Franklin and surrounding areas with the best in materials from Therma-Tru Doors. From Steel Entrance doors to Fiberglass entrance doors, storm doors, or doors with decorative glass, we have access to many different styles and types of doors.
With a front door by Therma-Tru, not only will you see an increase in comfort, energy efficiency and performance, you will also see an increase in curb appeal. Their fiberglass and steel entry doors will add beauty and security to your home. In fact, door replacement in Walpole and Franklin can increase the perceived value of your home by more than $24,000… just by adding a Thema-Tru entry door system!
When a retired Owens Corning executive, David Welles, purchased a bankrupt building supply company in Toledo, Ohio in 1962, Therma-Tru Doors was born. Then, in 1982, the company launched its Fiber-Classic style, the first fiberglass door on the market. And, 25 years ago, Therma-Tru introduced a bold innovation to the home-building market: an entryway door that looked as beautiful as wood, but performed with the durability of steel. Revolutionizing the industry is what you can expect from the nation’s leading manufacturer and most preferred brand of fiberglass and steel exterior door systems… Therma-Tru.
Why Choose Therma-Tru Fiberglass Doors?
Thermal-Tru is the market leader and innovator in fiberglass door technology. Their fiberglass doors are more durable and energy-efficient than wood or steel doors, and are backed by the best full-system warranties in the industry.
After 25 years, fiberglass still remains the most advanced material for entryway-door replacement in Walpole, Mansfield, and surrounding areas. They satisfy both today’s and tomorrow’s homeowners by giving them the look of wood doors and the strength of steel doors, without the compromises of either. Fiberglass doors actually offer the optimum combination of security, energy efficiency, performance and aesthetics.
Unlike wood doors, fiberglass won’t dent, crack, split or splinter. Also, fiberglass won’t rust or warp like steel doors can. It resists shrinking and swelling with temperature changes, allowing the finish to last three times longer than on a wood door. And, the solid polyurethane foam core offers five times greater insulation value than wood doors.
When you buy any Therma-Tru full system entry or patio door from Jancon Exteriors, you’ll get the full benefits of their warranties. We know that you’ll love our guarantee to protect your investment as much as you love the great style, easy installation, and durability of your new Therma-Tru Door.
If you’re looking for door replacement in Walpole, Franklin, Mansfield, or Medway, give us a call. We would be honored to speak with you. | 2019-04-19T18:30:15Z | https://www.janconexteriors.com/doors-therma/ |
How to Create an Outdoor Lounge Bed. Want to give your deck a little of that chic, outdoor lounge look? Give yourself, and your guests, a comfortable place to relax alfresco by assembling a lounge-like bed in your own backyard. It's sure to be a whole lot more inviting than a hammock-and a whole lot chicer too. All the hip hotels have them-now so can you!
Buy a futon mattress, sized according to your bed frame.
Have the futon covered in an outdoor fabric. (I suggest having your upholsterer add a water-proof liner under the outdoor fabric cover, just to be safe!) White will give you that Miami lounge look, but it could be awfully hard to keep clean. A darker shade or a pattern might prove more practical. To give your mattress a boxier, more tailored look, opt for self- or contrast-welting. My favorite outdoor line is Perennials-or you can find great affordable options at Outdoor Fabrics (see Resources below).
Make the bed more comfortable-not to mention more attractive-by adding plenty of pillows. These should also be covered in outdoor fabric and can be either in the same fabric as the mattress, or if you want to add a splash of color, I always like to mix in some accent colors and patterns. | 2019-04-23T14:38:30Z | https://www.hunker.com/12124663/how-to-create-an-outdoor-lounge-bed |

Work on an eagerly anticipated motorway intersection which was shelved for 13 years is expected to begin at the end of spring 2014.
The tender process for the Hellange interchange began in March this year, Luxembourg Infrastructure Minister François Bausch confirmed in a response to a parliamentary question.
Once that process is completed, he said he expected construction to start in late Spring, provided deputies vote to finance it.
The bypass will connect the A13 motorway with the N13 and is expected to give easier access to the Saarland motorway.
The project has had a tough time getting off the ground after landowners refused to sell a plot of land that was essential for the bypass.
Their challenge was overturned on May 2, 2013, when the Luxembourg District Court ordered a forced sale of the land for the infrastructure project to be completed.
It's expected the interchange will cost 34.2 million euros and will take two years to complete. | 2019-04-25T00:17:37Z | https://luxtimes.lu/archives/17770-work-on-hellange-interchange-to-begin-end-of-spring-2014 |
In today’s ever-changing world, companies are using many different methods to conduct business and reach increasing numbers of customers.
When online, telephonic and in-person transactions involve products and services that legally require the purchaser or user to be of a specific age, companies must perform the appropriate due diligence in order to verify identities and ages – regardless of the manner in which the purchases are made. LexisNexis® identity verification and authentication solutions help give you the peace of mind you need to do business safely, securely and profitably.
Let LexisNexis® Instant Age Verify be your solution for age verification that helps–not hinders–your business process.
Since 2003, LexisNexis® Instant Age Verify processed more than 51 million age verification requests.
We manage all databases internally, providing greater security and confidence.
Our solutions work with virtually any system and our proven technology is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
We offer flexible product options, allowing you to choose XML for real-time results or batch for convenience.
Our implementation and training teams have vast experience in age verification solutions.
Get it now: For more information about the LexisNexis® Instant Age Verify, please call 1-800-953-2877.
While the Internet can be a great source of revenue for companies, it can also pose additional risk – simply because online and face-to-face transactions must be validated in different ways. The importance of verifying an individual's age cannot be understated when it comes to the sale of products that are intended only for adult consumption. Companies cannot afford to make a mistake when selling such products. Equally important, when creating an online community – such as a dating or dieting site – companies must ensure that the website's users are legally able to access those services, in order to protect the audiences served by such sites.
LexisNexis® Instant Age Verify can help solve an age verification problem. Using one of the largest databases of consumer information, we use proprietary match logic algorithms and multiple data elements designed to help you confirm the consumer's identity and determine age.
Manufacturers of age-restricted products, such as alcohol, tobacco and firearms.
Fulfillment firms that ship or deliver age-restricted products.
Internet businesses such as dieting sites or dating services.
Firms that manage membership clubs for Internet businesses or products which have age requirements.
How does LexisNexis® Instant Age Verify work?
Consumer places an order or requests information online.
Customer name, address and basic information are sent to LexisNexis®, either in real-time via XML system-to-system interface or via daily, hourly or customized batch.
LexisNexis compares consumer information to more than 20 billion records of data with information on U.S. residents from 500 sources, including government-issued IDs.
Proprietary match logic allows for fuzzy matching on misspelled names or addresses, nicknames, partial names and more.
Instant Age Verify does not constitute a "consumer report" as that term is defined in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 USC 1681 et seq. (FCRA). Accordingly, Instant Age Verify may not be used in whole or in part as a factor in determining eligibility for credit, insurance, employment or another permissible purpose under the FCRA. | 2019-04-26T08:31:02Z | https://risk.lexisnexis.com/products/instant-age-verify |
Disney Sea is great especially if you go in the evening when its less busy, mostly adults, and you pay evening price.
Tsukiji is fun and you can use your Taijutsu to dodge all the forklifts and bumbling tourists.
Rather than seeking out certain temples or shrines I'd take a walk within 30 minutes of where you sleep. I bet you will stumble over a couple interesting ones.
Any place that has onsen, hiking, and restaurant serving beer is a sure fire destination for a fun day.
Definatly check out which local festivals are happening when and where. Some are more famous than others but they are all fun. | 2019-04-23T18:51:24Z | http://www.kutaki.org/modules/newbb/report.php?forum=11&topic_id=2478&viewmode=flat&order=ASC&post_id=46489 |
When you travel with TravelOn you don't just have a trip or a vacation but a soulful journey and abundance of experience.
I have travelled with TravelOn on two of their many safaris and I appreciate the efforts put for the accommodation or ride schedules which are well managed by the Host. However, few might think, they will find best accommodation and well-constructed safari rides through any agency. I will ask them to travel with TravelOn to know the difference.
Hospitality and humility are two strengths the host team guides their TravelOn campaigns.
Many safaris begin on the day of arrival, but with TravelOn, the experience begins 15 days before as they create a group on social media and provide their previous experiences. This binds us to the fellow travellers and we become part of the journey.
With TravelOn you just don't visit the most iconic wildlife destinations but you travel with people who have experience and who care for your happiness and they strive to make the travel worth your expectations.
I had the absolute Amazing Jungle Safari for a lifetime, thanks to the planning and organization provided by TravelOn!
Archana Tai, Mandar Dada and Subodh Dada planned every minute of our trip perfectly, paying such attention. We felt we were in very good hands, during our entire trip. Every moment With TravelIOn was unforgettable, and we can never thank enough for all their efforts and incredibly personalized experience they gave to us. I would recommend TravelOn to anyone who really wants a 5 star experience. So far I completed 3rd amazing safari trip by TravelOn team and many more to come. My overall experience was exceptional. The hotels where we stayed were fantastic as well. Foods of all the places are good. In some place there is a lot of moving parts - travel by train, Bus and Cars- all without a hitch! Team of TravelOn were super friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend TravelOn.
We had a fabulous time. The information about wildlife shared by you guys were spot on and with the help of your knowledgeable guides we spotted 4 tigers :) which was awesome. We could not have seen so much and in such an efficient manner had we not gone on your tour.
My experience with Travel On was awesome. It was first experience to explore wild life tourism with them in which they claim them as specialist. Post tour I agreed that their claim is cent percent correct. The arrangement, planning and coordination appreciated. Knowledge sharing and pre tour information with the group made them different than other operators. Wish all the best for their future endeavour and definitely look forward to plan another wild life tour with my family and friend with them very soon. | 2019-04-22T13:55:58Z | http://travelon360.com/cms/events/show/03/2019 |
I walk everyday. Or at least I try to. The same route, in the same neighborhood at the same speed. Round and round in circles, logging thousands of miles. Some days, I am on the treadmill. Each step leading me closer to the destination, but am I really getting anywhere?
They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Sitting at the computer day after day, typing words may seem insane to those that do not understand, but it is what will take us where we need to go. Are we going fast enough or too fast? Should we head down a different path? Do we need to change the final destination? Each day provides a new opportunity for choice. One foot in front of the other, we move forward on our journey. If the results are positive, we take the route again. If it doesn’t work out, we might need to change direction. Regardless, we need to get out there everyday and stay the course, if we are to make it to our destination.
And once we get there? We keep moving because ‘there’ is not a stable point, it is a movable and ever changing goal that keeps us on the path. | 2019-04-21T00:53:16Z | http://www.genevieveash.com/blog/embrace-your-insanity |

When learning a third language (L3), learners, according to researchers, tend to rely on their prior linguistic knowledge, be it from their first language (Li), their second language (L2), or their third language. Studies have identified a number of factors that influ- ence the learners' choice of the source of prior knowledge. However, the findings were generated from largely cross-sectional studies with a limited time frame. Consequently, little is known about how the factors may interact over time. As a learner attempts to use an L3, it is likely that the Li, L2, and L3 may undergo a change in the extent to which they influence the L3.
The present study, which focuses on a single L3 ASL learner, referred to here as LZ, investigates this possibility by examining the learner's production, over a period of nine months, of motion verbs and the word orders of their argument structures with goal prepositional phrases. These motion verbs are go and walk. This article first describes the motion verbs, their argument structures with goal prepositional phrases, and word orders in ASL, Japanese, and English (LZ knows the latter two). This is followed by a review of studies on L3 acquisition and cross-linguistic influence. Predictions are made with regard to the sources that shape the L3 production of ASL motion verbs, their goal PP argument structures, and word orders over time. Results of this study are then presented, and signed productions by the L3 ASL learner are assessed for changes in prior languages as sources. The article ends with a discussion of theoretical implications for the L3 acquisition of motion verb forms and their goal PP argument structures and word orders.
Motion Verb Forms. Individuals who are learning an L3 motion verb system simultaneously deal with two things: the conceptual and the linguistic formulations of motion in the L3. Motion is conceptualized as a movement of an entity acting as a figure in a ground or with regard to a landmark. Motion verbs are lexical items that refer to types of movement and encode information about their path and manner. Path is the direction of the movement. Manner refers to the way in which the motion is performed. As previously mentioned, this study focuses on two motion verbs: go and walk.
The learning of foreign language motion verbs requires mastery of its cultural system of motion. Cultures, through their languages, vary in the conceptual, semantic relationships between motion, space, and temporality and in the linguistic, syntactic forms that link movement, manner, and path. The linguistic expression of motion verbs is a function of cultural notions of motion and its manner and path. Languages exhibit three classes of motion verb systems: framing motion verb system, satellite motion verb system, and truncated motion verb system.
A framing verb system encodes motion with path but not manner. The morphology of these languages (e.g., spoken Japanese) mark motion with path and use a separate morphology for manner. Examples are ©SŽ (no bo ru) ("go upstairs") and joDS (o ri ru) ("go downstairs"). Manner is encoded as an adverb.
A satellite verb system encodes motion with manner but not with path. The morphology of these languages (e.g., spoken English) mark motion with manner and use a separate morphology for path. Examples are "run upstairs" and "run downstairs," in which "run" is the manner of "going," and "upstairs" and "downstairs" are the directions of the movement. To mark direction, path is expressed as a particle and/or a locative.

Why use a Sitemap for your Joomla! site?
Home / Blog / Why use a Sitemap for your Joomla! site?
how to notify Google, Yahoo! and Bing about the generated sitemap?
and at the end of the article you will find some recommendations for Joomla! sitemap generators.
Before answering to above questions, let's clarify the differences between the HTML sitemap and the XML sitemap.
The HTML sitemap is a collection of links created to improve the human experience across a website.
The XML Sitemaps are files in special formats, sitemap.xml and ror.xml created to inform search engines about new content. The accepted format by http://sitemaps.org is XML.
It is recommended to submit sitemaps for search engines in a XML format (though the links in a HTML format are crawlable by search engines, submitting a Sitemap in a HTML format to search engines will display some technical errors).
you can inform search engines about URLs that may not be discoverable by crawlers in the absence of a sitemap.
the crawlers can discover new content faster, so the number of indexed pages and the number of pages present in SERP may increase.
However, there will always be differences between URLs submitted and indexed URLs, and submitting a sitemap will not guarantee that all site URLs will be indexed.
Joomla!, like other CMS, has some issues with links that are creating duplicate content.
forcing search engines to distribute the pagerank between those 2 links.
Ideally, an URL must point to unique content and unique content must be referred by a single URL.
Why are we referring to duplicate content when the article is about sitemaps?
index multiple links with duplicate content: The result? Fewer pages present in SERP (search engine page results) and lots of pages present in supplementary index.
So, the crawler could use the bandwidth to index 10 links that point to the same content or could discover 10 new pages with fresh content. Duplicate content is a reason why a crawler may index fewer pages and may not discover fresh content. Although the issue can not be entirely solved, there are ways to reduce the amount of duplicate content.
Before submitting a Joomla! sitemap, create 2 empty files and save them as sitemap.xml and ror.xml in the root directory (this is the location where search engines are looking by default).
How to notify Google about the location of the sitemap ?
How to notify Yahoo! about submitted sitemap?
How to notify Bing about submitted sitemap?
To be able to access site's statistics, you need to verify site ownership in Google, Yahoo and Bing.
Although site verification is made when a site is added to webmasters accounts, search engines are recommending not to delete the verification files because they will be checked periodically.
When you should update the Sitemap in Joomla!?
If the content or maybe the structure of the website was modified, you have the option to update the Sitemap in webmasters tools by clicking the "Resubmit" button.
Is there an easy way to create a Sitemap for Joomla!?
Google offers a sitemap generator tool that implies some Python and server knowledge.
RSSeo! is under continuous development, so if you have feature requests GET INVOLVED and VOTE for them on RSJoomla! User Voice.
Much appreciated. I have been learning on my own and this helps.
i do not make sitemap for joomla using rsseo.
Gone through the entire post and explained the concepts of joomla nicely with good examples wherever needed. | 2019-04-26T00:55:04Z | https://www.rsjoomla.com/blog/view/42-why-use-a-sitemap-for-your-joomla-site.html |

This paper contains an investigation of some aspects of Romanian modality constructed with auxiliaries. These forms can be combined either with the infinitive, or with overt (imperfective /perfective) aspectual morphology. In the latter case, they might give rise to interpretations which have been classified in Romanian grammars as presumptive (broadly described as referring to probability, uncertainty, guess). In these contexts, all the auxiliaries are traditionally taken to be synonymous. This paper demonstrates that this conclusion cannot hold; a more in-depth examination shows instead that each modal auxiliary encodes a specific type of indirect source of information the proposition is based upon. In other words, Romanian modal auxiliaries have an individual indirect evidential component.
The application of canonical tests used in the literature supports a modal analysis of Romanian evidentials, as opposed to an alternative illocutionary operator account. Another characteristic of modal auxiliaries that is touched upon is the nature of the ambiguity relations with their perfective forms. It is assumed, following recent accounts by Condoravdi (2001), Ippolito (2002, et subseq.), Copley (2002), among others, that the ways in which temporal/aspectual heads interact with modal projections are responsible for various interpretations. For example, when temporal/aspectual heads are above the modal, counterfactual readings arise. When they are below the modal, only evidential interpretations are possible.

I'm the editor of the magazine of the Cartophilic Society of New Zealand. I think we produce quite a nice magazine but we are always short of articles featuring cigarette cards. We'd be happy for an article on any cigarette card related theme, whether it be about a particular set, a particular company or cigarette card collecting in general.....anything!. So, if anyone is keen to write an article for us, that would be wonderful. The more articles the better. | 2019-04-25T20:07:12Z | http://cigarettecardcollecting.com/index.php?topic=26.msg63 |
Swift: Why should you go for this programming language by Apple?
In the arena of iPhone application development, more and more developers are showing keen interest in learning a new programming language, Swift that is more approachable and fully-featured for iOS and OS X application development.
Certainly it’s not an easy move to switch to a new platform and this is why there is a lot of hesitation among the developing over taking this big decision. It is no less than moving out of the comfort zone as it involves many uncertainties along with the challenges to use a new programming language for developing that they are absolutely unbeknownst of.
So here we let you have a glance on its awesome features and benefits of Swift for the iOS developers.
With Swift you can ensure that the applications run faster and perform better. The Low Level Virtual Machine compiler supported by Swift quickly transforms the code written by the developers into native code. At the same time, the coding formats or syntax and even the standard libraries of Objective-C are fine tuned making the Swift code perform better.
While using Swift, the programmers don’t have to fret over the unsafe code criteria. The initialization of variables is necessary while arrays are checked for overflow and various other code safety patterns are tuned. The unused or unwanted data is automatically deleted with the use of the automatic garbage collection feature of Swift. This way the memory management application becomes easier as the developer needs not to devote resources for memory management.
Swift adopts the readability of named parameters as well as the power of a dynamic object model of the Objective-C. With it being interoperable with the earlier programming language, the iOS developers who are already familiar with Objective-C can easily grasp. It requires lesser coding for development, hence the development of apps is way easier. Debugging of apps is also easier. Experimenting with new APIs is easy with features like Playground and REPL.
Looking at the appealing features, Swift is certainly looked out as the future technology for iPhone application development.
It is incredible how several scammers are around. I am a residence tutor and placed an ad in the regional paper.
Hmm it appears like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that they will begin offering employees buyouts and early retirement incentives in 2017. Since then, I have been getting emails from employees debating on whether or not they should take the early out, so I thought it would be a good idea to visit.
First, we need to understand what an early out is. For federal employees, early buyouts are offered through Voluntary Early Retirement Authority (VERA) and Voluntary Separation Incentive Payment (VSIP). The two are often combined together.
For an employee to qualify for a VERA, the employee must be at least age 50 with 20 years of service in, or any age with 25 years of service in. Retirement is calculated the same as normal retirement for FERS employees, with one exception – FERS employees will not receive the FERS supplement until they reach Minimum Retirement Age (MRA).
The VSIP, or buyout, is the lump sum payment that the agency offers employees. Most agencies can offer up to $25,000, except the Department of Defense who can offer up to $40,000.
Now that you know what VERA and VSIP are, you need to decide if you are taking the offer. Employees normally have a couple of weeks to decide if they want to take the offer, and then they have to be off the payroll by the time the early out period closes.
I am always amazed by the number of questions I get every time a VERA comes around. Why? Because these offers get people that aren’t even close to retirement, thinking about retiring.
In my opinion, there are only four types of employees that should consider taking the offer.
1. You are financially ready to retire and biding your time so you can carry health benefits in to retirement.
A VERA offer for this type of employee is like hitting the lotto. You can now retire without taking a penalty on your FERS annuity and keep your benefits. Pass go and collect your $200!
2. You can get another job paying a similar type of wage.
Employees in this situation likely already have an offer for another position and have already considered it. Some employees that work in fields, or for agencies in high demand such as healthcare, the IRS, or DOD, may have a relatively easy path to finding a new job. If you find yourself in this position, then you may want to look at taking the offer and seeking other employment.
If you choose to go this route, please be aware that your FERS supplement (not the FERS annuity) will be affected by earnings when you reach Minimum Retirement Age.
3. You have been on the fence about retirement.
This situation is similar to number one, but a little different. For those that are relatively financially secure and have been considering retirement, a $25,000 offer to retire may help get you out the door.
4. You plan to retire this year anyway.
Can you say JACKPOT?! This is going to depend on exactly when the offer is in comparison to your retirement date, but if they are close… you just got a fantastic retirement gift! Take the money and don’t look back!
Each of these situations still require careful consideration before taking the plunge. If you are not in one of the above situations, I want to caution you not to let a payment of $25,000, or even $40,000, encourage you to make a bad decision. Also remember that you have to pay income taxes on the above amounts which could turn your $25,000 into $17,000. | 2019-04-22T04:53:58Z | https://bobbfinancial.com/blog/should-you-take-an-early-out |
We originally planned to release the Grovewalker weapon at a lower generation, together with an upgrade option that would allow players to bring it to current generation about half way through the next invasion. However, we decided to instead release it at the current generation level straight away.
Thus, the upgrade option was no longer required. Unfortunately, this update came after the submission of some description texts. | 2019-04-25T10:46:49Z | https://support.my.com/games/kbPage/1389/ |
Through our partners and community support, we are working to address a public health issue rooted in core traumas.
Better Futures Minnesota is a public health intervention model working to address the root causes of chronic poverty and homelessness, dependency on public assistance programs, racial disparities in physical and mental health outcomes, and high rates of untreated trauma and illnesses that often lead to incarceration.
We believe mass incarceration, homelessness, and untreated mental and physical health challenges is a serious public health crisis. For many of the men we serve, their lives have been marked by chaos, violence, and loss—experiences that contribute to mental and physical health problems, feelings of devaluation and rage, and lost human potential.
Through a series of partnerships and community support, we are working to address this deep public health issue. Since beginning our model in 2007, evidence has shown us that healing from these traumas is essential before participants can succeed as workers, fathers, and responsible community members.
We know that it’s not just a job that’s needed—it’s that supports such as housing, mental and physical health care, life coaching, job training, and connection to a meaningful, vibrant community are essential for men to transform their lives and walk a path to success.
The initial results of this unique social enterprise—both in the high percentage of success stories and the low cost to the community—are confirming the value and promise of an integrated, community-based endeavor.
For each dollar spent, the results double or more in benefits. In addition, the cost of the full complement of housing and support services offered through Better Futures Minnesota is 50 percent less than the cost of prison. Just as important, men in Better Futures are able to contribute and produce economic and social benefits that are not attainable while they are incarcerated.
An integrated-care approach is helping men transform their lives and become productive citizens, neighbors, fathers, and community members.
By supporting Better Futures Minnesota, you can help us make an impact on the men we serve, the community, and the environment. | 2019-04-25T02:41:19Z | http://betterfuturesminnesota.com/approach/social-impact/ |

Right before Christmas I was looking at a Wikipedia article for Immortal, and noticed a reference to a Japanese film by the name of Casshern. I was intrigued, and quickly went to check out the trailer, which you can see above (via Apple.co.jp). For a higher quality trailer (recommended) click here.
Maybe I'm easily swayed, but when I finished watching that footage I was blown away! Tell me that's not impressive. Or, well maybe don't tell me if you really think so.
In any case, the film is based on an older anime by the title of Casshan (新造人間キャシャーン, Shinzō Ningen Kyashān), which I might have to try and hunt down as well. I did find Casshern on Amazon for something silly like $3, so I just couldn't resist.
After Christmas we sat down to watch it one day, and I must admit that it is all that, and more than, the trailer promises. The film presents some classic anime plot and character attributes, which I am generally fond of. More than that though, it is a film that portrays war negatively by showing the characters struggling through multiple brutal conflicts. A few plot twists were thrown in for good measure as well.
The most satisfying aspect of the film, as may be evident in the trailer, is its cinematography. Granted it is primarily CG, but that doesn't deter from my enjoyment of it at all. The scenes are beautifully composed, and the colors are vibrant. Overall the visual style is gorgeous, and akin to films like The City of Lost Children and Dark City (oddly both films share "city" in their title).
The whole experience left us quite impressed, and somewhat emotional, as there are plenty of tear-jerker scenes in Casshern. Afterwards, I just remember saying "that was incredible..." | 2019-04-26T04:23:59Z | http://www.mentisworks.org/2006/12/casshern.html |

Vihara is Sanskrit or Pali for (Buddhist) monastery. It originally meant «dwelling» or «refuge», such as those used by wandering monks during the rainy season.
In the early decades of Buddhism the wandering monks of the Sangha had no fixed abode, but during the rainy season (Cf. vassa) they stayed in temporary shelters. These dwellings were simple wooden constructions or thatched bamboo huts. However, as it was considered an act of merit not only to feed a monk but also to shelter him, sumptuous monasteries were created by rich lay devotees (Mitra 1971). They were located near settlements, close enough for begging alms from the population but with enough seclusion to not disturb meditation. Trade-routes were therefore ideal locations for a vihara and donations from wealthy traders increased their economic strength. From the first century CE onwards viharas also developed into educational institutions due to the increasing demands for teaching in Mahayana Buddhism (Chakrabarti 1995).
In the second century BCE a standard plan for a vihara was established. It could be either structural, which was more common in the south of India, or rock-cut like the chaitya-grihas of the Deccan. It consisted of a walled quadrangular court, flanked by small cells. The front wall was pierced by a door, the side facing it in later periods often incorporated a shrine for the image of the Buddha. The cells were fitted with rock-cut platforms for beds and pillows (Mitra 1971). This basic lay-out was still similar to that of the communal space of an ashrama ringed with huts in the early decades of Buddhism (Tadgell 1990).
As permament monasteries became established, the name «Vihara» was kept. Some Viharas became extremely important institutions, some of them evolving into major Buddhist Universities with thousands of students, such as Nalanda.
Life in «Viharas» was codified early on. It is the object of a part of the Pali canon, the Vinaya Pitaka or «basket of monastic discipline».
The northern Indian state of Bihar derives its name from the workd «Vihara», probably due to the abundance of Buddhist monasteries in that area.
In Thailand, «Vihara» has a narrower meaning, and designates a shrine hall.
