The Good Trade's Week of Outfits Series highlights women that have personally inspired us to shop and live with intention! Each woman takes her own unique approach slow fashion and demonstrates how beautifully sustainable fashion can come to life. Today we're excited to share a week of outfits from Elim Chu, a stylist & consultant!
Poppy Barley - Designed in Canada, ethically and sustainably made leather footwear in Mexico. This brand is owned by a pair of sisters: Justine and Kendall Barber. Their journey of finding the RIGHT factory to partner with and the “next to family” relationships they've built with the people who make their footwear is inspiring and sets the bar for what's possible.
Hetki - Designed and made in Vancouver, Canada. Last year I tried the #stylebee10x10 challenge and noticed that I really missed and wanted a sweater tunic. But I was willing to take my time to look and research for a piece that I felt good wearing AND good about the label I was supporting. Our paths crossed during this search and when I saw a sweater top in Kate's line, I half-jokingly asked if she could make it longer. Her reply: “Of course! I want to make clothes that women actually want to wear. How long do you want it?”. We’ve since worked together again on pieces that are my version of a “power suit”. Finding Kate Schreiner has also blown apart my perception that “custom” or “slow fashion” is outside of my budget.
VEJA - I am 100% #fasterinflats so when my sneakers started to fall apart, stumbling on VEJA via Instagram was a godsend. I broke them in on a 3-day photoshoot and was very impressed with how comfortable they were. They are now approaching one year and the leather is of course worn in, but I’m embracing the wabi sabi nature of well-loved, well-worn apparel.
Something I’ve learned over the years as a conscious consumer is that currently, there is no “easy” answer to intentional/slow/ethical fashion. The answer is different for everyone and there are so many factors to consider, from clothing budgets to what sparks joy...my husband frames it best for me when I get too anxious: “is this the hill you want to die on?” TRYING is worth something. As someone who used to shop almost every weekend, adjusting our habits around frequency and quantity alone IS something.
Want vs Need. This usually clears the board pretty quick.
Want, but it’s temporary. This is usually a special event scenario like a wedding or party and nothing in my closet excites me. That’s when I’ll phone a friend to borrow.
Want, #30wears and more. This is where I’ll consider what I can spend to acquire. The budget will usually dictate the source: brand new or secondhand.
Choosing brand new? I cut out convenience, choose time and effort to do the research and take it slowww. A good place for me to start sits in the question Fashion Revolution has been asking: Who made my clothes? Aces if I can answer that and if I can’t, how much unknown am I willing to accept? Looking begins local before going global and even when I think I’ve found an item, I won’t rush into it. When I bought my VEJA’s, I considered that purchase for nearly a year.
Check in. A lesson I’ve learned with time is how clothing can make me feel. I don’t need to see my reflection to know how I feel in something. While I’m shopping, the try on is necessary. If it doesn’t feel good, there’s nothing a salesperson, friend or the mirror can say to sway.
This is one of my favorite “hacks” on days I don’t feel like thinking about what to wear: go monochromatic and contrast with texture.
Every time I use this vintage Coach purse, I think of my friend Julia. She has a cream version that I coveted at first sight. Her sister owns a vintage store and I was able to get the same one, different color, through her. It’s also the perfect size for all my daily necessities and a little bit more (like a good book or my bullet journal).
Fun fact: my friend Kate made this top (+ the pants in Friday's outfit) and named the style “Teho”, Finnish for power, because these are the kinds of pieces I pull together for my version of a “power suit”.
I love playing “dressy” against casual pieces and the ease it offers when my schedule includes day-to-night events. Change up the shoes, top layer + bag and my outfit can be repurposed for a more formal evening vibe.
I found this silk blouse at Community Thrift in Gastown and for me, it’s THE perfect blouse: machine washable, no chest pockets, boxy fit. It’s a style I’d invest in having made in 3 more colors: grey, taupe and white. The material is also easy to wear/layer for year round wear.
A really easy styling tip for feeling more “pulled together”: try tucking in the top and/or belt the bottoms.
My friend Angela found these while thrifting in Alberta. I remember her text sharing the find, how they were too good to pass up and that they might fit me. She was totally right.
There’s a sweet spot for me when it comes to the length of tops. I love pullover sweatshirts and find them easy for everyday wear but sometimes they can look to casual...so I started cropping them and now I find them incredibly easy to wear as an “elevated” basic. This isn’t for everyone but if you too enjoy a raw hem, just measure and cut with a sharp pair of scissors.
I love these sneakers because I am on my feet A LOT (walking, standing on photo sets) so comfortable shoes are a must and where I’m comfortable spending a little more money. Finding ethically-made footwear that fits my aesthetic hasn’t been the easiest but it’s not impossible.
This outfit is probably the best example of elevated basics that feel most “me”: a structured jacket, a top in a classic design, tailored bottoms and pointy flats, different textures in black and white.
This jacket been in my closet for over 5 years and has surpassed its #30wears. The way this jacket feels each time I put it on is why I reach for it year after year. It’s like a security blanket at this point! There are 3 zippered pockets that are large enough to hold my “can’t live without” items: smartphone, credit card, lip balm, keys. The cut allows for light layering in spring/fall but also fitted enough that I can wear as a mid-layer during the winter months. I love how I feel in this jacket so much, I had to wear it on my wedding day.

Many thanks to American Thinker for publishing my article, A Balanced Budget Amendment is not enough – Give Us Back Our Constitution. The comments to the article illustrate the frustration many Americans feel with our federal government. In the last hundred years the Framers’ fundamental constitutional structure has been betrayed by all three of the branches of the federal government. The executive branch has assumed ever greater powers, often essentially ruling by decree through regulations promulgated by unelected bureaucrats and Presidents who have seized the power to start wars without congressional approval. The judicial branch has assumed the right to effectively amend the Constitution by diktat of five unelected justices of the Supreme Court, and has done so dozens of times. And the legislative branch has usurped the rights of the States and the People to the point where no one can articulate any real boundary to federal power to tax, spend or police.
The problem is structural. Even if this Congress refuses to raise the debt ceiling, a future Congress can resume borrowing and spending. That is why we must look to constitutional amendment to constrain Washington. However, it is unrealistic to expect that two-thirds of both houses of the federal Congress are ever going to vote true and lasting limits on their power. Such limits are only going to come from the States and the People. The “amendment amendment” clears the way for States to enact amendments to the Constitution without having to go through Washington.
There is a tremendous pent-up desire to use the amendment process to restore the proper balance of governmental power in our Republic. Besides the various balanced budget amendment proposals, there are the repeal amendment, an amendment to cap federal spending, and congressional term limits to end the era of the professional Washington politician. The “amendment amendment” opens the way for these and other worthy proposals to be presented to the People without having to first be approved by the very body they are intended to limit.

Neck pain comes in many guises, it can manifest as long term, chronic nagging pain which is ever present, or short term acute severe debilitating pain which affects every aspect of life. Although not as common as back pain it still affects around 5% of the population at any one time and is slightly more common in women than men. The pain can be localised to the neck or can radiate down the arm or upwards to the head and at times manifests concurrently with shoulder pain. If there is nerve pressure in the neck symptoms may include numbness, pins and needles and muscle weakness in the arm.
Spinal degeneration, which occurs with age, and also can occur sometime after injury, this is associated with arthritis, formation of calcium spurs, inflammation, narrowing of the intervertebral disc and spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spinal canal.
Whiplash, usually occurring because of a car accident where the neck is suddenly forced to move in one direction and the resulting rebound creating a whipping motion, apart from the immediate symptoms, long term pain lasting many years can occur.
Poor posture is probably the most common cause of non-specific neck pain, sitting is considered the new smoking due to its delirious effects on many aspects of health. Sitting at a chair especially when working on a computer causes the normal physiological curve of the neck to be reversed and if this is maintained for too long the neck ligaments and discs become strained in time resulting in pain and reduced mobility of the neck. This reduced mobility becomes a cause of discomfort and results in reduced function such as inability to turn the neck whilst changing lanes when driving.
When you first see your Chiropractor for neck pain they will take a case history and conduct a thorough Chiropractic, Orthopaedic and Neurological examination. The Chiropractic exam involves checking your posture, palpating for subluxations and muscle tension or spasms as well as checking for temperature changes around the spine and perhaps looking for electrical changes in the muscles connecting to the spine. The Orthopaedic exam involves conducting various movements to further localise your problem and a Neurological examination involving muscle, reflex and nerve tests. Often x-rays are taken looking for bone spurs, spinal degeneration or disc narrowing, also to rule out pathology.
Your Chiropractor will treat your neck with spinal adjustments, which can take many forms such as a low amplitude high velocity thrust or perhaps using an activator which delivers a rapid tap to the area of concern. Usually postural advice will be given as well as corrective exercises.
Research published in a 2007 issue of JMPT shows that on examination of several trials of Chiropractic care for chronic neck pain that there is high quality evidence of significant pain improvements even on 12 week follow up.

Do you want to build your muscles? You can do a lot of things to maximize your efforts of increasing your muscle mass so that you aren’t wasting precious workout time. If you are trying to achieve muscles that are bigger and stronger, then the below article will provide you with assistance in this goal. Start making good use of your gym time by applying this tips.
You should not emphasize speed over a good technique. No matter the exercise, a steady pace that focuses on technique will offer the best results over repetitions pushed out too quickly. Go slowly and make sure you use correct form.
Focus on squats, dead-lifts and bench presses. These three exercises make up the core of a solid bodybuilding routine for good reason. They have proven to increase strength, add bulk to muscles, and improve your general level of conditioning. Include these three in some way at each workout.
TIP! When muscle building, be sure to have a lot of protein. Protein is what builds strong muscles and what they are made from.
Make sure you are eating enough carbs to support your muscle-building program. Carbs provide you with energy that you will need for your workout. By not consuming enough carbohydrates, your body is going to use protein for energy. Eat just enough carbs to increase your body’s function, but don’t overdo it as it can lead to weight gain.
Be very cautious if you decide to use creatine in your muscle-building program, particularly if you continue taking it for long periods. If you already suffer from kidney problems, ceatine could make it worse. They have been shown to cause heart arrhythmia, muscle compartment syndrome, and muscle cramps. Young people should not take these supplements. Always take nutritional supplements cautiously and only as directed.
It is possible to create the impression that you are larger than you may actually be. You can do this by focusing your training on your upper chest, your upper back and your shoulders. This causes your waist to look smaller and makes you look bigger.
Increase your protein intake to build your muscle mass. Protein is the primary building block in muscle development, and consuming too little could cause your muscles to diminish, making your efforts in bulking up useless. You may require daily protein in the amount of one gram for each pound you weigh.
There are lots of things to do in order to improve your muscle mass. Remember these tips so you can build muscle tone efficiently. By using this knowledge, you can start getting better results for your efforts.

I never believed NH would get a divorce, talk about ridiculous.
It was just never going to happen.
That karaoke date was pretty lame imo, not enough NH. New thread soon, I'll try to think of new thread name.
What about Nathan's quote? "You’ve given me an amazing life. And I do love you so."

The only remark would be not having a mini-fridge in the room.
The room was very comfortable, although the view I had was nothing special. The cleanliness of the room was top-notch. The staff was friendly and professional.
The bed was really soft and comfy yet it is made out of 2 parts which are separated in the middle, which can be quite annoying, there also is a McDonald's close by and when going outside into the parking area you can often smell it which is.. eww yet that is rare and has little to no impact overall.
Everything was perfect - location, staff, the room was super clean. Will come back definately! Thank you!
Entrance is back door in the alley and no lift. Reception is on the 2nd floor.
Location is great! Near Sekmu where you can rub the magic belly!
Breakfast choices could be way better.
The place that hotel is situated in, is perfect. Rooms are tidy, staff is super friendly. Great interior. We will recommend and come back.
No tissues in the room, breakfast wasn’t vegan friendly.
Nothing major really, perhaps some breadrolls from a real baker, and not just bake-off. The small croissants though are nice and crusty.
This was the 4th time I stayed at this centrally located hotel. Even though it is right above Macdonalds -there was no noise. Very centrally located. The staff is always very helpful and friendly in a natural way.

They are new and still building a customer base. Once Shabu on Fire fills up it will be the new place to eat on Main St. Huntington Beach.
I have to admit, when I agreed to review Shabu on Fire I had no idea what to expect. I had heard the name quite a few times but for some reason had never checked it out (much to the dismay of my friends.) I’m from Huntington Beach, and whenever anyone finds out you live in Orange County but haven’t been to Shabu, the reactions are reminiscent of Californians discovering someone from Minnesota has never tried In N Out.
The best way to prime yourself for the experience is to simply go off of name alone. Letting the name “Shabu on Fire” marinate in your imagination will be the best preparation for what to expect, but you’ll still be shocked. As I did not know that trick to prepare myself, I tried all of my best methods for getting my bearings in a restaurant: music, decor, layout, tagline, and menu…to no avail.
No way! Now that I’ve been there, I see where they could have gotten it. But the word “fondue,” to my ears, conjures creamy, rich, and a hint of guilty pleasure.
What I received instead was earthy, deep, and with layers of flavors woven together like soap bubbles — try too hard to pin them down, and watch them dance away.
Perhaps this opacity is intentional. If it is, it’s genius, because each new diner is delivered to Shabu on Fire’s door having no idea what to expect.
I entered Shabu to see my only seating option be at one of two enormous semi-circular countertops that encircled my server Phil, who was bustling about from diner to diner.
It was family style done well, which is not something I see often. Privacy was implicit and respected. Yet, there was a sense of camaraderie and comfort shared amongst those around you, a comfort cultivated by Phil.
I looked at the menu, and apart from beef (especially wagyu), it was surprisingly affordable. Their appetizer menu stuck primarily to the mainstays you find on the menus of Japanese restaurants for American audiences: edamame, miso, softshell crab, seaweed salad, etc… I got the impression that the appetizers, salads, and even the rice dishes were only on the menu because they had to be. They weren’t the reason to come to Shabu on Fire, and I passed by them with barely a glance because they weren’t the reason I was there either.
I ordered the three-item combo, and chose pork, beef (which costs $3 extra), and salmon. One of the best ways to determine a restaurant’s level of quality is by how they cook their fish, so I try to fit it in at any restaurant I review. I still had no idea what I was in for, and at this point found myself a bit confused! What could “Asian fondue” mean?
Dishes began to arrive from the kitchen. First, a plate of vegetables: spinach, cabbage, carrot, shiitake mushroom, and broccoli, with thick uncooked noodles to the side. Next, a bowl of rice, ending with one of the most gorgeous plates of meat I’ve ever seen. Beautifully marbled beef, sliced so thinly you could easily see through it; delicate pieces of pork, each one ensconced with a respectable lining of fat. And of course, thick, luscious chunks of salmon, so obviously creamy with fat that I wanted to eat them all right there, no cooking involved. Sure enough, Shabu on Fire did not disappoint my rule about fish: Tim told me casually while introducing the meat, “And the salmon is sushi grade, so feel free to eat it just like that (in fact, it’s recommended.)” I wasted no time in obliging. Any restaurant so dedicated to quality that they serve sushi-grade salmon for a dish where the fish is generally cooked earns a lot of respect in my book.
Shabu on Fire is famous for their soup. Basically, you start with a broth base, cook things in the order that is required for them to cook fully (corn first, because “it takes forever,” and beef needs only two seconds swirled in the broth to be a perfect medium-rare. At the end, you have whatever leftover meats and vegetables you didn’t eat and you add the noodles. The result is poured from the hot pot used for tableside assembly into a bowl, to be eaten as soup. While some diners apparently opt out of the soup part (that gave me the second largest double-take of the night), it is the exquisite layers present in the soup that make this restaurant stand out even in the middle of Huntington Beach’s Main Street.
The largest shock of the evening came while I watched Phil make the broth base by hand and eye. It happened at the beginning, and so quickly I barely even caught it from the corner of my eye, but it did indeed happen! There was water already present in the cooking vessel, to which he added hearty splashes of what I can only guess were miso, soy, and something like fish sauce. A few spoonfuls of minced garlic and green onion, and those are the only ingredients I remember going into a broth that competes for some of the most flavorful I’ve had. I’m still in awe over how he did it, but I knew that it was the type of thing that would be impossible to describe. It came naturally to him, as naturally as turning a doorknob.
Given how (truly) complicated the process is, you’d think it may be intimidating, yet somehow it isn’t. I’ll credit that to the servers, who spend an impressive amount of time with new diners to introduce the concept and guide them through the process. My dinner came out to be $23, which is shockingly affordable given how much time Phil spent curating my dish, all of the top-shelf ingredients, and the fact that the entire dining experience takes over a full hour.
It’s a good sign when you can’t pin down the clientele of a restaurant. To my left sat a middle-aged couple, one of whom I can guarantee is never as boisterous in his daily life as he was when smacking his lips in satiety from his meal. On my right was a girl who had just graduated from college and two of her younger brothers, both avid surfers. All age ranges and socioeconomic strata were present, and for all of them, the food was the star. “Hunkering down” is the best way to describe how one eats a dish at Shabu on Fire, and put simply, that’s how food should be!
There’s some decor, and there’s a TV for those who want to watch the game, but both are afterthoughts. The music played in the background is a playlist you’d imagine at a 2002 middle school dance — in other words, the best music, but as with everything else, low-maintenance. No one is coming to Shabu on Fire to be seen, or because of the scene, they’re coming for the food. One specific food in particular: shabu shabu.
Shabu on Fire teaches you a new kind of dining experience. It’s interactive, dynamic, and sociable, but it also requires a great deal of attention be paid to both the process and each bite; if you don’t, you will miss something, and you’d be missing something great.
The food is good and kind Grub. Different levels of spicy. Tasty and healthy when I need a recharge and the service is always top notch.

If you think of Red Rocks Park as just a beautiful place to see a concert, think again! Around you are 738 total acres of deer, dinosaurs, pines and prairie, geological wonders and spectacular vistas. At 6,450 feet above sea level, Red Rocks Park is a unique transitional zone where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains. The diverse environment allows visitors to see plants, birds, and animals of both regions. Red Rocks Amphitheatre is a geological phenomenon – the only naturally-occurring, acoustically perfect amphitheater in the world. From Sting and The Beatles to opera stars and U2, every artist aspires to play on this magical, spiritual and emotional stage.

I have become a fan of Steve Moore, The Mad Drummer. He has an enthusiasm for his drumming that is matched only by the east African drummers of Burundi. Check out this comparison video. It’s pretty impressive.

It doesn’t get much more awesome than awesome drumming. Japan’s got some fun stuff, too.

You can stand in Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia at once here. (Or at least jump back and forth between them!) Drive up and take a walk up to Pinnacle Point to enjoy stunning views, especially if you come in the fall to see the changing foliage. Sunrise is also spectacular, but check to make sure the park gates will be open before you get up early. Everything is very handicapped-accessible.
You can find plenty of short trails to hike through the area. Pick up a trail book at the Visitor Center, or ask the Rangers for help. The hike to the Tri-State Peak is pretty easy. The Daniel Boone hike is a little more challenging, though it's only steep for about a quarter mile.
When you're looking for a place to stay in the Appalachian Mountains, Hipcamp has you covered. Pitch your tent along the Cumberland River or in a meadow where you'll find deer grazing in the morning. Check out studio apartments, primitive shelters, and cozy cabins, all available from Hipcamp.

Not only do you have the right to work in a non-hostile environment, free from discrimination, but you also have the right to speak out against discrimination without being fired or retaliated against by your employer in any other fashion. Under statute 44-1001, the Kansas Act Against Discrimination, it is unlawful for an employer to “discharge, expel or otherwise discriminate against any person” when that person opposed the employer’s discrimination, filed a complaint, or testified or assisted in proceedings under the statute. Federal laws under the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) also prohibit employers from retaliating against employees who have spoken up against discrimination or filed a workplace harassment or discrimination claim.
Damaging an employee’s chances of future employment with other employers, when unrelated to his or her actual performance.
In order for the negative act to be considered retaliation, it cannot be an isolated incident and it must be more substantial than an offhand remark or a strained relationship between you and your employer or another coworker. The retaliation must be substantial and/or sustained.
Talking to co-workers or managers about salaries in order to uncover potential wage discrimination.
An employment attorney is here to assist you in the process of filing a claim or lawsuit against your employer for retaliation due to discrimination. Whether you were acting on behalf of a coworker or experienced discrimination yourself and spoke out against it, your employer must be held to justice. Do not wait any longer to call the Kansas City law offices of HKM Employment Attorneys today for assistance.

If you’re looking to pick up a new Instant Pot multi-use cooker, there’s only one place you should be looking to buy it right now. Amazon just launched a surprise sale that shaves a few bucks off of the two most popular Instant Pots on the planet. They’re worth every penny at full retail, of course, but they’re pricey so every penny counts.
The Instant Pot DUO60 6 Qt 7-in-1 Multi-Use Programmable Pressure Cooker page on Amazon has a $12 coupon you can clip, but you should note that the last Instant Pot coupon we covered sold out very quickly, so you should definitely hurry if you want to use it. Or, if you want an even more versatile model, the Instant Pot DUO Plus 60, 6 Qt 9-in-1 Multi- Use Programmable Pressure Cooker can be had today at a $10 discount. Again, there’s no telling when these deals will sell out, so get in on the action while you still can.

As opposed to the 75 men still held who were cleared for release by the Guantánamo Review Task Force that President Obama established shortly after taking office in 2009, these 71 men were either recommended for ongoing imprisonment without charge or trial (on the dubious basis that they were too dangerous to release, even though insufficient evidence existed to put them on trial) or for prosecution (until most of the charges in the military commission trial system collapsed following legal challenges). Both Fawzi and Fayiz were recommended for ongoing imprisonment by the task force.
Prior to the Kuwaitis’ PRBs, six reviews had taken place for other prisoners, and decisions had been reached in five — with three men recommended for release and two recommended for ongoing imprisonment. Those recommended for release are still held because they are Yemenis, and the US government refuses to release any Yemenis, because of fears about the security situation in Yemen. As a result, the three men have merely joined the list of 55 other Yemenis, cleared for release by Obama’s task force, who are still held. For the two men recommended for ongoing imprisonment, the PRBs are also problematic, because they suggest that there is a real legitimacy to the process, when, as I explained here and here, there appears to be no sound reason for concluding that the two men in question should continue to be held.
I have been covering the Kuwaitis’ story for many years, first in my book The Guantánamo Files, and, since 2007, in my many articles, and, throughout all this time, I have found no credible reasons for believing that either man poses — or has ever posed — a threat to the US. I wrote about Fawzi for the BBC in December 2007, and wrote with dismay about his failed habeas corpus petition in August 2009. Similarly, I wrote a major profile of Fayiz in October 2009, and wrote with dismay about his failed habeas petition in September 2010. In February 2012, I traveled to Kuwait, where I met both men’s fathers, and also met many of Fayiz’s relatives, and where my belief that neither man constitutes a threat to the US was only reinforced.
In its unclassified summary, the government also acknowledges that Fawzi’s “infractions” have “declined in recent years,” as well as noting profound problems with some of the more outrageous claims against him. As the summary states, “We lack confidence in statements from other detainees that KU-232 [Fawzi] was closely associated with Usama Bin Ladin [sic] or belonged to an ai-Qa’ida cell in London,” both implausible claims that should never have been believed.
Good morning ladies and gentlemen of the board. We are the Personal Representatives for Mr. Fawzi Khalid Abdullah Al-Odah, and will be happy to answer any questions that you may have throughout this proceeding.
As the representatives for Mr. Al-Odah we, in collaboration with Mr. Eric Lewis and Ms. Katherine Toomey, the Private Counsel for this case, have strived to provide you the information that will demonstrate that Fawzi poses no continuing significant threat to the security of the United States. We have had the honor of meeting with Fawzi over the past five months, learning much about him. He is a man who has endured twelve years of detention here at Guantánamo Bay. His family’s unwavering support for him and his own father’s tireless endeavors to bring his son home has helped sustain Fawzi through his long detention. But it has also made him regret that his circumstances have caused such pain and struggle for his parents. We are also aware that Fawzi has had disciplinary incidents in the past.
We have discussed this with him — particularly the apparent change that he underwent a few years ago. He explained to us that he finally realized that he could not continue to perpetually remain frustrated and angered by his long and indefinite detention. He needed to let that mindset go, so that he could rediscover himself again. He continues to work on improving his perspective and has shown extraordinary improvement and maturation in his approach to his detention.
During our meetings we have learned that Fawzi is intelligent, genuinely polite and professional, and has been willing to participate throughout. Fawzi has stated repeatedly, and we believe credibly, that he envisions a future for himself as a private citizen who works, is married and has children. Those are his most immediate aspirations. We believe that you too will today see his sincerity in wanting to achieve those simple goals.
As we’ve prepared for this board, Mr. Lewis and Ms. Toomey have worked hand-in-hand with us throughout this process, attending every meeting with Fawzi. In addition, they have traveled to Kuwait to secure witness testimonies and exhibits for the board’s consideration, which you have in front of you today, and on which they will soon comment. Fawzi’s country, including the highest officials in its government, supports him and has an established rehabilitation program for returning detainees. We believe that the Kuwaiti rehabilitation program, coupled with his family’s steadfast support and Fawzi’s own peaceful goals — of getting married, starting a family, and working with his father in his plumbing supply business — reveal that Fawzi is indeed a man worthy of selection for transfer. At this time, we would like to introduce Mr. Eric Lewis for his opening statement. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Eric Lewis’s statement has not been made available, but the Associated Press reported that he told the review board that “his client will be closely monitored if returned to his homeland,” because the Kuwaiti authorities “have agreed to keep [him] in a government rehabilitation center for at least a year upon his release” from Guantánamo. Even after leaving the rehabilitation center, he “would surrender his passport, check in weekly with police [and] would be monitored by security authorities,” Lewis added in a statement to the board.
For Al-Jazeera America, Jenifer Fenton, who I met in Kuwait three years ago, wrote a powerful article about Fawzi’s father, Khalid al-Odah, who said he was “feeling very good” about his son’s hearing.
However, as Fawzi himself explained at a hearing at Guantánamo a decade ago, it was his “bad luck and bad timing” that the 9/11 attacks happened while he was in Afghanistan. Like many other Arabs, he fled the country, as news spread that foreigners were being sold for bounty payments, but as he crossed into Pakistan, despite asking to be taken to the Kuwaiti Embassy, he was sent to Guantánamo via the US prisons in Afghanistan.
A close analysis of the most recent classified Joint Task Force Guantánamo report on al-Odah released via WikiLeaks shows, among other things, that a number of the allegations against him are based on testimony from witnesses whose reliability even the US has questioned, or who have denied testifying against him, or even who claim to have been coerced into giving false evidence. Family members and experts say some of the claims against him are unsubstantiated or simply false.
On June 12, the review board met to consider the case of Fayiz al-Kandari, with statements made by both his military-appointed representatives, and Barry Wingard, who is now a civilian attorney, but was formerly the military defense attorney appointed to defend Fayiz after he was ludicrously put forward for a trial by military commission in the dying days of the Bush administration, charges which were later dropped.
I can only hope that, when the review boards’ decisions are announced, probably next month, both me will be recommended for release, and will be repatriated shortly after, to resume their long-disrupted lives.
Good morning ladies and gentlemen of the board, the Colonel and I are the Personal Representatives for Fayiz. Mr. Barry Wingard, on my right/left, is Fayiz’s Private Counsel. To my right/left is our translator (translator’s call sign). I first met Fayiz on 11 February 2014 and corresponded regularly with both him and Mr. Wingard since. In the four months we worked with Fayiz, it is apparent that he cares deeply about returning to his family in Kuwait. Additionally, he is compliant and his behavior during our meetings reflects a well-spoken, thoughtful young man who is ready to quickly move on to adulthood and make up for lost time.
Fayiz is a religious man. He is a principled man. He is an intelligent man. His family is ready to receive him in Kuwait. The Kuwaiti Government built Alsalam Rehabilitation Center proving they eagerly await his return and want to assist him to acclimate and move on with his life. The Kuwait Ministry of lnterior, Kuwait Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Emir, himself, have given their assurances that they want Fayiz back in Kuwait and they will support his rehabilitation. Fayiz is not a continuing significant threat to the security of the United States. He is a man with a caring family, supportive government and deep desire to resume his life. His family and the Kuwaiti Government have created an ideal scenario for him to safely return to Kuwait. And he is ready.
Thank you for your time and consideration. The Colonel and I are happy to answer any questions you may have throughout this proceeding. We will now defer to Mr. Wingard for his opening statement.
I am Barry D. Wingard. private counsel for Fayiz ai-Kandari (Fayiz). I have served in the United States military for thirty years. I have been involved in representing Fayiz in October 2000 in my capacity as a military officer in the Air Force Judge Advocate General’s Corps, first as a major and later as a lieutenant colonel and now as a civilian attorney. I would first like to thank you for the opportunity to represent Fayiz in his twelve and a half years in Guantanamo Bay and my six years as his attorney.
During my time as attorney for Fayiz, I have travelled to GTMO more than fifty times and travelled to Kuwait fifteen times.
Since 1991, the relationship between the United States and Kuwait is the strongest in the Middle East. The US and Kuwait have a robust bilateral defense agreement. Kuwait provided the main platform for Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation New Dawn. Currently the US houses several thousand troops in Kuwait, and Kuwait regularly purchases billions of dollars in military hardware from the US.
On numerous occasions, the Emir of Kuwait has given his personal assurance and declared in 2011 that the return of his sons from Guantánamo Bay is his number one priority.
In 2014 Fayiz has agreed to attending Alsalam Rehabilitation Center for a minimum of six months and being subject to professional assessment.
In 2013 the Kuwaiti Pariament passed the Terrorism Funding Act.
Parliament of Kuwait’s unanimous condemnation of GTMO in 2011.
In 2009, Kuwait spent more than 40 million dollars to build and staff Alsalam Rehabilitation Center.
During my representation of Fayiz, I have had the honor of meeting Fayiz’s family in Kuwait on many occasions. I must admit that spending time with Fayiz’s family is one of the things I look forward to when visiting Kuwait. I recently met with Fayiz’s family the Iast week of April and mid-May 2014 and can report to the Board that they are ready, willing, and able to welcome him home.
Fayiz’s family consists of doctors, lawyers, politicians, and even ministers within the Government of Kuwait, as seen in the video that we submitted. Since the beginning, Fayiz’s family has stood by him during his regular calls home.
An example of the family success is that of Abdullah Kamel Al Kandari, Fayiz’s cousin and former prisoner in Guantánamo Bay (ISN 228). Abdullah was kept in Guantánamo Bay for six years before being returned to Kuwait. Once in Kuwait, Abdullah returned to the al-Kandari family, resumed his career as a professional athlete, started a family, and has posed no danger to anyone.
From the onset Fayiz has maintained his innocence and continues to assert his purpose in traveling to Afghanistan in the middle of 2001 was to perform charity in the form of paying others to repair a mosque and digging two wells.
Fayiz has a long history of charitable works consistent with the teaching of Islam.
By all accounts Fayiz has been a cooperative and compliant detainee, and he has never been a physical threat in Guantánamo Bay.
Fayiz has spent his twelve and a half years reading writing, teaching and becoming fluent in the English language. Fayiz has several business ideas that we frequently discuss. Fayiz has stated on numerous occasions that his goal in life is to get married, start a family, and conduct business in Kuwait.
After hundreds of hours, within a period of six years, I share emphatically that Fayiz is no risk to the national security of the United States.
Fayiz has done everything he has been asked to do. The Government of Kuwait and his family have given every assurance that they can possibly give. Alsalam Rehabilitation Center sits ready and able to treat Fayiz when he returns to Kuwait.
Thanks to everyone liking and sharing this. I’ll be following up soon with a report on the 9th PRB to take place, for Muhammad Murdi Issa Al-Zahrani (ISN 713), a Saudi, which took place on June 19.
You’re most welcome, Carol. There’s actually been a flurry of Guantanamo-related activity since the Bowe Bergdahl/Taliban prisoner exchange, although only that story, with its artificial hysteria, was deemed to be particularly newsworthy. I’m catching up on all these other stories, and will be publishing various updates into next week.

This is a beautiful 18th century oil on canvas painting of a Monk with a basket of flowers. Religious paintings are full of symbols which is why I love them so much. The white rose as a number of meanings but most associate it with purity and christ's sacrifice. To me this painting has a number of meanings. I wont spoil the fun by telling you m thoughts I will let you formulate your own. The quality of the piece is very high and is only in need of a light clean to bring out some of the details. The colours with the heavy black frame (not original) really work well as a decorative piece and lend themselves very nicely to both modern and traditional homes. Large decorative size also.

Lucas Ramsey is a gourmet cook and the author of a mystery series featuring Zenzo, a police detective whose cooking rivals Lucas’s own. He invites Georgia to share a simple meal, pasta e fagioli with shrimp, which he hopes to use in a cookbook of Zenzo’s favorite recipes.
This version is adapted from both about.com and from Simply Recipes, because Lucas, like the good chef he is, refused to share his with me. Still, I think this one’s close and the shrimp is a welcome addition to this Italian classic.
Cook the pasta in salted water according to directions on the package. Drain and set aside.
Meantime heat the olive oil in a large saucepan or saute pan. Stir in the onions, celery and carrots and cook, stirring frequently, over medium heat for 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook another minute.
Add wine, tomatoes and stock. Stir and bring to a simmer and cook until vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Add the thyme, Italian seasoning, salt and beans. Simmer 5 minutes, then turn up the heat to a slow boil and add shrimp. Cook only until the shrimp change color, which they will do almost immediately. They’re done once they change color, unless you like your shrimp rubbery. Trust Lucas.
Stir in the pasta; taste and add more salt if needed.
Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and fresh Italian bread to sop up the juices.
To make ahead, don’t cook the pasta first. Do the rest right up until it’s time to add the shrimp. When you’re ready to eat, cook the pasta, then bring the soup back to a strong simmer and add shrimp. Add the pasta once the shrimp are done. This also gives the flavors a chance to blend. Yum!
Lucas’s mother’s version is thick and rich. His grandmother’s is thin and soupy. His is somewhere in between. You can add more broth or even water at this point to make it soupier, if you prefer. We like it just as it’s written.

Former Verizon Wireless CEO Denny Strigl on the shifting trend toward streaming content and the Justice Department's lawsuit to block AT&T's acquisition of Time Warner.
Former Verizon Wireless (NYSE:VZ) CEO Denny Strigl said on Wednesday the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) efforts to stop AT&T’s (NYSE:T) proposed $85 billion mega merger of Time Warner (NYSE:TWX) were a mistake.
According to Strigl, the lawsuit is inconsistent with past DOJ decisions.
Did Trump tweets interfere with DOJ's case against AT&T?
Strigl says the potential AT&T-Time Warner deal would create a vertically integrated company which the DOJ rarely opposes.
However, Bartiromo questioned how vertical the deal really is, with an expanding range of companies competing for the same consumers.
“Well, they’re trying to get at the same consumer for video streaming, this is the future of telecommunications. If you look at what Verizon does, what AT&T does, they’re all trying to do that,” Strigl said.
“This is the future for wireless communications, AT&T, Sprint. T-Mobile, Verizon, they’re all trying to put video, media content over their wireless devices, so that’s where the future is. Now, Verizon has purchased AOL as we know, has purchased Yahoo and they’re trying to put the pieces together to be able to provide streaming video and you’re right, we’re all fighting for the same customers,” the former Verizon CEO said.

Traded in the escape for a Saturn outlook. With a 2 to 1.5 reducer the hitch still keeps the utility trailer level.
A year later and the Class ll Drawbar 5-1/2 is still strong. Ive used it both fishing and hunting. Thanks for a great product.
Great. No problems or complaints. So glad I found the product I needed at etrailer.com. Thanks!!!
Still as good as the day we bought it.
Works fine. I’m quite happy with it.
I couldnt be happier with this purchase. Working great.
The Shank on the Class II Drawbar 5-1/2 inch Rise or 6 inch Drop, item # BM96, has a solid shank.
For a 6 inch drop ball mount that is aluminum we have the FastWay Flash Standard, Aluminum Ball Mount - 6" Drop, 5" Rise - 10,000 lbs Item # DTBM4600 which would work well for you. It has a 10,000 lb capacity and weighs a total of 6 lbs. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
I have not seen a 1-1/4 inch ball mount that offered 12 inches of drop. The most that we have is a 6 inch drop # C45028 (Class I or II) or # BM96 (Class I). If this is for a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee I recommend switching to a Class III, 2 inch trailer hitch, # 13251, so you can use a ball mount with more drop such as # AMSC12.

Having long been an advocate for environmental practices, Stella McCartney has partnered with the UN to launch a sustainable fashion charter.
Announced on stage as part of Business of Fashion’s VOICES event, the charter will pave the way for more sustainable business practices in the fashion industry. It includes things like creating low-carbon strategies and promoting the use of materials that have a smaller environmental footprint.
The full charter is set to be launched in Poland on December 10, with 16 commitments to help fashion brands lessen their environmental impact. While signatories are yet to be announced, rumour has it several major fast fashion brands are among the mix.
McCartney also took the opportunity to announce her new charitable initiative, Stella McCartney Cares Green – a sibling to the existing Stella McCartney Cares Pink platform.
Stella McCartney Cares Green aims to create positive change by empowering students, professionals and businesses to embrace sustainability on a global scale.
You can check out the new initiative here.

This 3/4" Easy Loc tee connects three pieces of 3/4" tubing. Simply cut the mainline tubing and insert a Tee fitting.
Love these Easy-Loc fittings. Make it super simple and quick to modify the header to add or change the irrigation system. Use the easy loc on the drip tape too. Seems sturdy, reliable and leak free so far.

Introduction to LeadDyno for Affiliate Marketing 12-9-14 from Brett Owens on Vimeo.
Hi everyone. Thanks for logging on and joining me today. This is Brett Owens from LeadDyno. What we’re going to do is walk through a pretty comprehensive demo of the entire system in about 15 to 20 minutes. We will save time for your questions, so anything that you’d like me to spend a little more time on, review, or walk through for you, I’m happy to do that as well. To get my attention just go ahead and type questions into the go to webinar panel at any time. If I can take those in the flow of the presentation, we’ll do that. Otherwise, we’ll definitely save time at the end. So like I said, we’re going to move quickly here and cover a lot of ground. So just to give you a heads up on that, I’m going to move fast. If you have questions or stuff that you’d like to review or see in more detail, please be my guest to ask a question and we’ll circle back on it. We can spend as much time as you’d like on any of the topics that you want to cover, anything that I cover or anything else that’s on your mind.
So, with that I’ll go ahead and get started. Let me actually flip over to one of my affiliate websites. Our first step, if you’ve already signed up with LeadDyno or you already have an account. Hopefully you found this page, but just in case you have not, this is your affiliate website. This is the site that we host for you, that you can give out to potential affiliates where they can sign up for your affiliate program. You can customize this page. You can put in your company logo at the top, as I’ve done. You can put in your company colors, including the buttons and such. This is the page that you can start to market to potential affiliates and resellers that you speak with. We’ve got a way that we can get this in front of your customers too. I’m going to show you that in a minute to help ramp up people and help bring them into your affiliate program.
Where this is at in LeadDyno, I’m going to show you where you can configure this website. I’m within the application here and I’m going under affiliate content and configure affiliate website. This is where I’ve got my logo uploaded. I’ve enabled a custom header. I have my color selected. You can also do custom CSS if you want to really customize the styling on this page you can do that. You can embed it on your website as well. To do that you enable iFrame mode which is right here. That will basically allow you to embed this page onto your site, so if you don’t want someone to go to your domain.leaddyno.com, if you want it to go somewhere else on your website, you can do that, iFrame mode is how you would do that.
We have some other settings here. I actually just got an email from somebody asking how they can require affiliates that they approve affiliates. So when somebody signs up here by default, we just drop them in your program. This is how our programs work personally. I don’t require affiliate approval. I just let people sign up, let them go. But if you do want to approve your affiliates as this person asked me, that’s an option and that setting is actually down here, Affiliates require approval at the very bottom of this configure affiliate website.
This is kind of where we start bringing affiliates into your program, getting them going. The affiliate invitation that I mentioned is a new feature but it’s something that I would highly recommend that you check out. I’m on the fourth option here under affiliate content. What this is basically doing is htis is an email that invites people, as they purchase from you, to join your affiliate program. I’m sure you’ve seen or you’ve bought stuff around the web, where the person who you buy it from or the online store that you buy something from will say, “please share this on Facebook.” Or “Share this on Twitter.” Usually they don’t have much of an incentive for you, so whether you do it or not depends on how excited you are about your purchase.
The nice thing about, as you probably know, about setting up an affiliate program is that now you can incentivise people to share this stuff too which is going to make them much more likely to share their purchase on Twitter or on Facebook. How we do this is we invite them to join your program when they buy something from you. This is basically the perfect time to invite them to join the affiliate program to share your stuff. So we send this email out on your behalf. I’ve got an email here that’s already pre-written. You’re welcome to use it and just sign your name to it. Otherwise you can edit the email as you like. That’s fine too. To get this going, just make sure this is enabled and then this is going to go out to everyone as they purchase from you. This is the best way, in my experience, to get your affiliate program growing early. Aside from the people that you already talk with, you want to get your customers on board. This is a really really easy way to do that with our affiliate invitation. This is another option and a newer feature that I did want to point out to you.
Okay, here’s a question on the affiliate invite. Didn’t want it to go out right away. Okay, so use the same content in the mark in the email section with the seven day delay from purchase. Do you lose any important functionality that way from this affiliate invitation?
Actually, no. That was a creative way to go about it. This is basically sending a purchase out at day zero. For the other people on the call, let me just show you what we’re talking about here. We do have the ability for you to send out Lead followup emails to people as they sign up from you as a new lead, as they buy from you or if they cancel, or if they ask for a refund. All of these emails are based on certain time delays. The question here from John is, “If I send it out seven days after a purchase and I just add a new email, am I losing anything?” No, you’re not. In fact, what you can do is just send an invitation to the affiliate program here and then you can just put in your content here. Then this will be your invite. And instead of sending it out on day zero, you can send it out on day seven or day three or whatever you would like to do. That’s a good way of using it, so nope, you didn’t lose anything in the process. I’m glad you got through that on your own.
Just to give everyone else a little more background, the reason you may do that and may not immediately invite somebody is that if you have other information you are giving them related to the purchase, you may want to wait a day or two, or a week in this case, to get them invited to join the program. That’s sort of the background there and then these are the Lead followup emails, so I’m glad we got into this because it’s something I usually like to share with you as well.
So we’re recruiting affiliates. As affiliates enter your program you’re going to see them populate here. Under affiliate program and then under manage affiliates is where we’ll see them. Let’s take a look at one of our affiliates here. Lori is one of our reseller partners. Lori has two links that we give her here. One is the affiliate link. This is where she can refer people to our site. We track the traffic for her and she gets credit for the leads and the sales that she sends to us. The second link is basically linked to her affiliate dashboard. I want to show you what that looks like. After Lori signs up with us she’ll have this link into her affiliate dashboard. This is where she can get her referral link again and this is where she can share it on things like social media.
We have one click hits into popular social media like Facebook. To share this on Facebook, I basically just click the Facebook link. What this will do is log me into Facebook. It will have a post on my wall that’s all ready to go. This is a post that I, as the affiliate manager, had already written. I’m going to show you where you can write this stuff in a minute. The affiliate doesn’t really have to think too much about it. They can add a comment if they like, then they can just share this on their wall. They’re off running, then this will go out to all of their friends and all of their followers. This is the same deal with Twitter. Click the tweet, link, and it will pre-populate the tweet. Again, this is so the affiliate doesn’t have to do a lot of hard thinking or writing if they don’t want to. They can just post what you’ve already written and they’re good to go.
Otherwise, as you can see, I can edit this tweet if I’d like to. I can completely rewrite it if I want to. That’s fine. We do already have the affiliate link in here so they don’t have to worry about that. They’re going to get credit for all the clicks that comes through. It’s the same for Facebook. All of those clicks that come through are going to be tracked by the affiliate links. We also do LinkedIn, Google Plus, Pinterest now and good old fashioned email as well. It still works really well. We do send out the email on the affiliate’s behalf. We’ll do it up to 10 people at a time. All they need to do is input 10 email addresses then we’re going to send out an email. Again, these links will all flip to affiliate links. We’ve got this email pre-written, so they don’t have to think about it. But as with anything else, they can rewrite it if they would like to edit this email.
They can also see their progress in real time here. These are the number of visitors that they have referred. The number of sign-ups. A sign up could be if you have something like a customer newsletter. This might be before somebody purchases, so that would count as a sign-up or a lead. Then of course, purchases over here on the far right. Then there are the payments. These are the commission payments that Lori has earned. She’s currently owed $26.10 from us. In a lifetime she’s made $387.10.
These are all updated in real time. As an affiliate refers a click to your site they’re able to see this update, so that’s cool for them. They can see that everything is actually working. They’re actually getting credit for the traffic that they’re sending your way. It gives them a reason to come back to the affiliate dashboard. They can see their commissions. This is a place they’ll want to come back to, which is great, because they have their link here and then they’ve got all the social sharing too. While they’re here they’re more likely to reshare their link and such.
You see Lori also has an affiliate code. Let me talk about the affiliate code for a minute. An affiliate code does two things for you. One, it gives you a co-branded referral link so the affiliate code is just going to be the suffix on this link. It makes Lori look like she has got a co-branded link with us. This is nice to see. It doesn’t look like a traditional affiliate link with all the mumble jumble at the end. The second advantage of an affiliate code is that we can match it up with a discount code if you’re using an e commerce store like Shopify, Bigcommerce or Stripe. The discount code would then be something we can track if we don’t have a click throughout a link. A case of this could be the case of something like Instagram, where you can’t really click through an Instagram post. So link sharing and link tracking doesn’t’ work, but you could throw a discount code on the Instagram post.
You could say okay, for 10% off, use this discount code. We then would match up the discount code. If we were using Shopify we would match up the discount code using Shopify with the affiliate code in LeadDyno. We would then be able to still credit that to an affiliate even though no link was clicked. For stuff like Instagram or offline stuff where people are just doing word of mouth or in person sales where they’re giving a discount code or you’re doing something over the radio, any of that stuff, that’s where we can match it up with an affiliate code.
her affiliate link embedded so she can put these on her website. It kind of gives us, from our perspective “free display ads.” For affiliates we’re only paying them usually after somebody actually sells something. We don’t pay upfront for the display. So that’s a nice advantage to having the banner ads in here.
Our affiliate newsletters are things that we send out that look something like this, where this was announcing the release of one of our mobile applications for our sister company here. This is the affiliate program that I’m showing you. I sent this out to our affiliates when we did the product release. I wanted to give them a heads up and let them know how they could help us promote this and basically sending them back to the affiliate dashboard. What I told them was back at the affiliate dashboard, there’s this link here. At the homepage I had all of the social media stuff rewritten around our new release. It gave them something relevant and fresh to share. That was good for them and it also gave us more reach on our product release. It was a win-win for everyone. It gave the affiliates something new to talk about and it gave us more reach on our product release because these guys were able to go on the social media and start talking about it as well.
We do keep an archive of the affiliate newsletters. These are going to be under here. I sent out one earlier in the year when I was at a trade show. This basically is an email that will just go out to your affiliates because we’ve already got your affiliates on LeadDyno, so we can send this out. An affiliate newsletter feature is down here. We’ve been under affiliate content the whole time as we’ve been talking. The affiliate newsletter option is the last one here. To create a new affiliate newsletter, just click new affiliate newsletter and then just start typing. We take pictures in here, links, and such. There’s a lot you can do in here.
Specific links, which we call sub-ids. If you want to do a link to a specific product page or a specific sub-domain, you can do that with our sub-ids here. Affiliates can also do it themselves. Basically, they just enter the target URL that they’re trying to hit. It will give them a new link, and then we’ll track the progress on each link. In no case do you only have to link to the homepage. You can link to specific product pages or affiliates can do it themselves.
Let me show you where this is all updated here. I’m still under affiliate content. Content library is where you can edit things like the Facebook posts. I’ll just click the Facebook post and then edit content here in the upper right. This is basically what allows me, as the affiliate manager to rewrite that Facebook post. I can update it here, keep the content fresh, and decide which URL I want it to go to also. It doesn’t have to go to the homepage. It can go to any sub-page that I want. This is what we call the, “primary” or the main content here. This is for the homepage, so this is where these are all accessed. The content library is where you update this stuff. It is also where you can upload your banner ads, so add content in the upper right is where I can add a banner. I mentioned Pinterest before, and this is newer. You can add a Pinterest pin. It’s where you can kind of configure that affiliate dashboard as you would like to see it.
Let’s talk about some ways to engage and keep affiliates motivated. As you probably get by now, that’s what we’re about. Keeping these guys focused, letting them know how they’re doing on their progress, and also letting them know in a manner where you don’t have to constantly have to update them yourself. The system as in LeadDyno is doing it for them. We have some automated emails that can further help you with this. We’ve got one that can go out first, when people sign up for your affiliate program. So basically get all the content that they need. Again, we’re going to embed the affiliate link here and the link to their affiliate dashboard when this email does go out.
We have some template variables that you can use. This is going to welcome them to your program. Once again, into the affiliate dashboard, as you’ve seen, they’re pretty much good to go from there. We can also let them know how they’re doing on a weekly update. We have a weekly status email. We can let them know when they have a new lead or a new purchase. This would let them know when they have a new affiliate purchase. We can let them know who that person is if we want to. In real time we can let them know that they got a new commission, and they can see their commission back on the affiliate dashboard. These emails are going to look something like this, “Thanks for sharing your colleague with us. We have them set up. If they pay at the end of their trial period we’ll have a commission for you.” Here’s where we can say okay, we have a new affiliate commission for you and again, you can always see it on your dashboard. When they go back to their dashboard they will see their progress will be updated and their commissions will be updated as well, so this person can say, “Cool, I’ve got $800 coming up and $2,500 paid out lifetime.” They can get all their info here, so if they want to do any link-sharing while they’re in here they can do that too.
I’ll wrap up with the most popular feature for affiliates. If you’re really talking about keeping these guys motivated, then paying them out is going to be the best email that they’re ever going to get. We have an easy way to pay them out. I recommend our PayPal integration which is pretty simple. Literally you just come in here, see what commissions are currently due, and then click the PayPal button to pay out. What that’s going to do is it’s going to log you into PayPal.
Let me go ahead and do that so I’ll show you one. Let me pay out Sam. I usually don’t pay out under $50 but it’s Sam’s lucky day. We’re doing a demo and we want to show this PayPal integration. I’m logged in and now it says, okay, “are you ready to pay Sam $34.80?” I say, “Yes.” Now we’ve paid Sam, so that’s that. I’ll close this up and he’s been paid out. When we refresh this page he will no longer be owed money. You can keep going down the list, so it’s pretty simple. It’s just a click. I usually pay our affiliates once a month. We pay them out if we owe them $50 or more, typically. Honestly, I actually do most of the payouts during the demos. Sam was lucky. He didn’t have to wait for the $50 this time. You’re welcome to pay out affiliates as often as you like. If you want to pay out everyone, even Rhonda here, who I owe $8 to, if we want to just pay her out we could now. I’ll give that a few weeks to let the commissions accrue.
But the PayPal integration is the easiest way to go. It basically sends to their email address. If it’s not able to find them for whatever reason, PayPal will get them to sign up and let them know. I’ve never really had an issue with the PayPal payouts. It’s pretty much good to go out of the box.
Alternatives, however, if you want to pay out in other ways, if you want to cut somebody a check, you can just cut them a check and then mark them as manually paid. I’ll do that here. Say, I’m cutting this person a check, I just click manual and then they are Xd out. We also support Dwolla and Coinbase for payouts as well, so if you want to do something other than PayPal, you’re welcome to do that as well.
Then the final thing I’m going to point out and then we’ll get into more questions here. As you probably saw from us yesterday, we are launching and this is by popular demand, an affiliate network. What we basically want to do is get you introduced to other good affiliates that are also using LeadDyno. We’ve got a lot of good programs that are using our software. There’s been a lot of interest from both ends. Affiliates finding other good programs and you guys finding good affiliates. We’re going to start matching you guys up. If you’d like to apply to get into the program you can do that basically here.
Just go to our homepage and then affiliate network and I’ll put this in the chat, stuff here as well. Let me see if I can send this to all. Here’s the link. You’re welcome to sign up if you would like. You’ll be hearing from us soon on this. Basically we’ll feature your affiliate program, give you prominent placement for our affiliates and then also would like to start making intros too because we have affiliates who are promoting similar products to yours, so if you’re okay with it and if the other affiliate manager is okay with it, then we’d like to start making some of these intros and getting everyone hooked up. That’s where we’re going there, so it’s exciting stuff. You’ll see more from that on our side in 2015. With that we’ll roll into questions. So if you have questions just type those into the go to webinar panel and I’m happy to cover anything that you’d like to see in more detail.
A question on Google AdWords tracking, which we do mention on our site. On your site you show that you can also use LeadDyno for tracking Google AdWords too. Can you walk me through that?
I’d be happy to. Let’s go back to LeadDyno. I’ll be going back to our marketing section. This is where we were earlier. Let me just quickly review here, since we kind of jumped into advanced stuff earlier. We’ve got two things under our marketing tab. We’ve got lead followup emails. These are emails that can go out automatically basically when somebody signs up. I actually use these. If you get emails from LeadDyno, these actually do come out of LeadDyno. When you sign up, these emails that I walked you through come from us. If you want to track something like a Google AdWords campaign or a Facebook ad, what we do is we give you what we call a tracking campaign link. To do this you go under actions, create a new tracking campaign. This is basically like creating an affiliate link. We’re using it like an affiliate link, we’re just not paying out a commission. What we want to do is to track the success of this link. The way to do that is then just use it in your Google ads or in your Facebook ads. What you do is just kind of point the ads over to this tracking link instead of just using your base URL. Then we are able to see exactly how well it’s been performed for you.
For example, I know that this Google ad group has sent me 1700 visitors and then converted 162 leads and 43 purchases. There were 16 cancellations out of that. I can break this down. I compare this with my Ad Spend and Google AdWords to see if it makes sense. I can also see the specific customers here so again this is the advantage of using LeadDyno for this conversion tracking. We’re already plugged in with your online store and we can get the actual detail on the purchases. The normal AdWords conversion code will show you if somebody hit a certain page, but will not necessarily show you what they bought. The advantage of LeadDyno is that we’re already plugged into your store, so all you need to do is throw our link on the front end. Then we can show you the entire sales funnel for that link.
It looks like that’s it for questions, so we’ll go ahead and wrap it up. If you do have other things you think of afterward, you’re welcome to reply to any of the emails from me about your attendance today. That will go back to me and we can circle back one-on-one about any questions that you have. We also have live chat going, I’m sure many of you know, during every day of the week. That’s available in the app itself in the lower left or on the website, if you’re on our website. You literally won’t miss it if you’re on our website because we are here on the lower right, so you’ll see this as well. Pretty easy to see.
One more question for wrap-up, on advanced commissions structure. I would be happy to and if you have a specific example you’d like to walk through, I can walk you through that now as well. If you want to just go ahead and type that in, we’ll go over setting up advanced commissions.
Step up commissions 25%. I remember our conversation from yesterday on this. Just so everyone knows what we’re doing here, what we’re going to do right now is set up a tiered commission structure. Let me actually set up..you know what I’m going to do? I’m just going to set up a new commission plan.
What we’re going to do here is we’re going to set up volume based incentives for our affiliates, so that the more they sell, the higher their commission percentage goes. Let me go ahead and add a new payment. What I’m going to say is, “We’re going to pay for a purchase. We’re going to pay a percentage of the sale. We’re going to pay 25%.” When are we going to do this? We’re going to say, from 1 to 10, we’re going to pay 25%. I’m going to save this and then we’ve got this here.
We’ve got purchases after 1, up to 10 25%. Now if I want to do 11 to 20 for 30% I keep that a purchase. This is percentage, and this is going to be 30%. Now I’m going to go 11 to 20 and then I save. Now I’ve got two levels. I’ve got 1 to 10. I’ve got 11 to 20. Now let’s just say I want to go 21 on up and we’re going to give 35% above.

It’s been a while since I last posted about skincare, so here I am with the latest product joining my favourites when it comes to preparing the skin for the day: Dior Hydra Life – Lotion to Foam Fresh Cleanser.
The Hydra Life collection, first presented during Spring 2017, is a whole set meant for the deep hydration of face and neck and promises a “fresh, glowing, and luminous” complexion. It includes 4 products for cleansing and priming the skin while eliminating dead cells and 5 for effectively enhancing its natural hydration.
If you like me have combination skin prone to becoming grey and dull in winter, then this is a product you’ll love. Thought mainly for young, not too problematic skin-types, it’s been created to be as purifying as a cleanser and at the same time refreshing and soothing as a toner. Held in a bright packaging, it comes as a clear liquid that once pumped out the dispenser becomes soft and foamy. I like the fact that a small push does all the work, so you don’t need to use a whole lot of it every time and can keep it lasting a lot longer than many other foam products.
I enjoy applying it in the morning as its fresh scent of white tea feels like a little treat that helps me start my routine the best possible way, but I find it works great in the evening too, when it comes to take the day off. I personally never use it as the sole make up remover as I always go in with a wipe or an oil first, but combining it with Clarisonic Mia2 gets excellent results.
Now, after one month of testing it I’ve noticed that my complexion feels more luminous and bright and imperfections have reduced reaching a smoother grain. And while I wouldn’t say the issue of combination skin has been totally solved (wish there was one miraculous product!), I find it has nicely improved and on most days I don’t need to correct shine issues, which is a great pro if you ask me!

Our goal is to provide in depth, but easy to understand reviews of products and services that are not only made specifically for Apple products but are also compatible with Apple products. Whether its hardware or software, desktop or mobile, we’re here to “kick the tires” and see what it can do.

I’m a tattoo artist from Melbourne, Australia. I have worked my way up from humble Yarra Valley roots through a nomadic stint tattooing in the U.K. and Europe, I’m now based in the eclectic city suburb of Prahran and is a founding member of the private studio ‘Empire’.
One of the most unique artists in the current tattoo scene, my signature style combines dark themes, heavy contrast, clean lines and solid colour saturation to create powerful, dynamic tattoos that stand the test of time. Now a seasoned tattooer, I am considered to be one of the hardest working and most active travelling artists in the world, as well as being known for my ability to wear the hell out of a shirt and his discerning taste in mojitos.
Out of the womb and into the saloon, this ain’t my first rodeo.
I started using Cheyenne in December of 2016, after I had a back spring break on one of my coils at an international convention for the second time in a month. When I got home I decided to cave in and finally try the machine that was plug-and-play, and that I heard could do it all. After two tattoos, I was pretty much hooked. The HAWK PEN was the first rotary I found I could comfortably line with, yet it wasn’t so punchy to the point that it chewed up the skin when shading. It’s fast and efficient, and it saturates effortlessly. As it is the ultimate allrounder, it is perfect to now carry just the one machine for my travels, instead of the six machines I needed in the past. The convenience of setting up one machine day to day in the studio is a luxury I enjoy as well.
Recently I’ve introduced the HAWK Thunder to my setup exclusively for my lines. It’s more powerful again, for more speed and further ease in applying my power lines in particular - even in those difficult, large scale areas. Cheyenne cartridges are second to none. I’ve always said, never cut corners or be stingy with your set up in tattooing, and tattooers should know better than anyone that you get what you pay for. Pretty simply, if you’re not using the best needles then you’re not making your tattoo the best it can be.
Switching to Cheyenne has only helped to enhance my style, and has certainly made life easier for me.
Exclusive SensiDrive® technology, motor drive through different settings, very low vibration and low heat generation, coupled with a powerful motor – that is the Cheyenne SOL Luna. A new dimension for tattoo artists! This revolutionary tattoo machine provides extremely clear results and reduces pain during use.

I left the Knitted Bible behind and headed for the Floral Hall to the Annual Dinner and Dance of the International Dance Teachers Association. The Association has been coming to Southport for four days of dancing, lecturers and dining for about a dozen years.
On the steps of the Floral Hall I was greeted by Wayne Sleep and we chatted about the Mayoral chain. He was clearly pleased to be in Southport and later in the evening performed an amazing comedy dance routine based on Charlie Chaplin. I did reflect that it one day I was encountering full range of activities from the Knitted Bible to Wayne Sleep.
There were over 400 people at the Annual Dinner and I made a point of getting around the tables and asking what they thought of Southport. I am delighted to report that there was universal approval. Everyone spoke highly of their accommodation and loved Lord Street. The venue, with the Ballroom in the Floral Hall and the Theatre next door, suited their needs perfectly.
I was lucky to be sitting with the President Lynda King during the dinner who was an excellent and interesting host. The cabaret after the meal was breath taking. Not only did we have Wayne Sleep we had demonstrations by: Gerhard & Amor – World Showdance Champions and Warren & Kristi Boyce - Reigning British National Professional Ballroom Champions.
There was high praise for the staff of the Floral Hall and for the meal they produced.
On my way out I bumped in Wayne Sleep again which rather satisfactorily completed the night.

So, in addition to the wisdom of the PRWeek editorial team, you also get to hear thought leaders including Ford CEO Alan Mulally (on his communications lead Ray Day), Gary Vaynerchuk (on Mondelez’s Bonin Bough), Margit Wennmachers (on her former OutCast business partner, now Facebook communicator, Caryn Marooney), and Al Golin (on his eponymous agency’s CEO Fred Cook).
We also tracked down Lord Chadlington to talk about BlueFocus’ trailblazing leader Oscar Zhao, Torod Neptune and Julie Hamp to sum up their respective former colleagues Corey duBrowa and Tony Cervone, and Harris Diamond on his successor at Weber Shandwick as CEO, Andy Polansky.
It was a fascinating exercise that shed new light on the movers and shakers of the PR and communications industry, illuminating the profiles with nuggets that can only be borne of personal experience.
Our Power List number one this year, WPP CEO Martin Sorrell, oversees the world’s biggest PR agency portfolio. Having faced the prospect of being knocked off his perch as leader of the largest global marketing services holding company, he had the last laugh following the collapse of the proposed Omnicom-Publicis merger – an outcome he predicted from day one of the deal’s announcement.
He might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but few can disagree that he is a pioneer for the agency sector and a passionate advocate for evolving the way modern client needs are met. And that’s a powerful place to be.

As the State Government election loomed in 2012, the WA Local Government Association (WALGA), as the voice of Local Government, engaged our services to develop a campaign with the aim of ensuring that the issues that affect ratepayers at a very local level were not overlooked as the parties focussed on the big ticket items such as stadiums and rail links.
Utilising local and state-wide press over several weeks to gain the attention of ratepayers as well as local members of parliament and drive traffic to a stand-alone website, the ‘what’s in it for you‘ campaign was developed.
Firstly, the major parties were written to, with WALGA identifying several key Local Government issues. The letter sent was to seek commitment from the parties, or at least get them to state their stance on the issues at hand. These responses were then published in the press via full page ads and uploaded to the ‘whatsinitforyou’ website. Local members (who may also have been getting pressure from the public), seeing that they may be up against stiff competition in certain areas where other parties supported local issues that their party didn’t, were encouraged to put pressure on their own parties to change their stance. There was the facility over time for the parties to review and update their status on those issues and these were regularly updated on the website and via the press.
The measurable objective for us was to get the engagement of the major parties and see them change their stance on the issues in a positive manner. We believe this was achieved and that the voice of Local Government was heard.

Coming out of high school in 2015, Murray was considered one of the best two-sport stars coming out of Texas in years. He has a familial history with both football and baseball. Murray's father, Kevin, was a star quarterback at Texas A&M in the early 1980s, while his uncle, Calvin, was a big league outfielder with multiple teams. Kyler would have been a potential late first-round pick out of high school if teams had thought he was signable, but as a two-sport star he told teams not to draft him because he was headed to Texas A&M. Murray has covered a lot of ground since then. He was supposed to be Johnny Manziel''s replacement for the Aggies, but he transferred to Oklahoma after starting three games and playing in eight as a freshman. That made Murray eligible to play his redshirt freshman season with the Sooners baseball team in 2017, but his rust was apparent. He hit .122 with no extra-base hits while struggling defensively in left field. Murray went to the Cape Cod League briefly last summer and, after serving as NFL No. 1 pick Baker Mayfield's backup last season (he threw 21 passes), he showed significant strides in his second season with the Sooners baseball team. Murray looked much more comfortable in center field this year than he did in the corners last year, as the easier reads of center allowed him to take more decisive routes and let his plus speed play. There's still a ton of projection involved with Murray because scouts know they aren't seeing him at his best. He has spent much of the spring splitting time between baseball and spring football practice, where he was battling for the Sooners' starting quarterback job. Scouts have generally seen more above-average than plus run times from him, but many believe that's because he's worn out. Similarly, he shows a 30 arm right now, but he doesn't get to work on his throwing arm for baseball because he is muscled up for football. At the plate, Murray's development this season has impressed evaluators. He is showing much more advanced pitch recognition and plate coverage, impressing with his ability to battle to deep counts. He has 20-25 home run potential down the road, with the bat speed that gives him a chance to develop into at least an average hitter as well. Murray's signability is going to be a tricky puzzle for teams. He has the leverage to demand a significant signing bonus to give up football or he could also look to sign a contract that allows him to continue to play football, something Anthony Alford, Kyle Parker and Russell Wilson have done in the past. But he could also opt to not sign and push any such decisions back a year--he'll still be a redshirt junior next June. As such, he's a tricky player for scouts to evaluate. On pure talent, he's a second- to third-round pick.

There are only two more days until Christmas (?!?). Which means that there isn’t a lot of time for a DIY project before Christmas, but just in case you are feeling especially crafty, I have a DIY project for you!
Since working from home, I have come to love listening to podcasts. I always come away inspired, and with little insights into other people's creative process. Here are a few that I have enjoyed.
Through my experience as a print designer, I have created a simple request template that can be modified for any project. This request form is valuable to the print vendor, and is great to incorporate in your process.
Color plays such an integral part of graphic design — whether through branding, web design or illustrations.

We love all the treats and goodies that come along with holidays, but it’s also fun to incorporate some healthy snacks along the way. We’ve gathered some healthy Easter snacks for kids that we are excited to try over the next few weeks. They can be fun to make ahead of time for your kids, but we also like to treat them like artistic invitations. Gather the ingredients and invite older kids to create their own healthy Easter snacks inspired by the original!
Cheese and crackers are the stars of this adorable chick snack idea from Meet the Dubiens.
Prefer a fruit snack? Try this cute pineapple chick from Meet the Dubiens for Kix as a fruity Easter treat.
Have pizza lovers at home? Who says pizza can be an Easter food?! Try these carrot-shaped mini pizzas from Hungry Happenings.
Let kids decorate their own Easter egg quesadillas with this cute idea from Itsy Bitsy Foodies.
You can make this fruit bunny snack from Meet the Dubiens in just a minute or two.
Don’t let all those dyed eggs go to waste. Make Easter shaped egg salad sandwiches.
Make bunny deviled eggs with these easy steps from Paas.
Short on time? This carrot snack is quick and easy to make. You can make a large one for a party platter or individual ones for your kids.
Looking for something that’s healthy but tastes like an Easter treat? Try these easy frozen Easter egg snacks from No Time for Flash Cards.
Not home for snack time or looking for something you can send with kids on the go? Try these easy fruit cup chick snacks from No Biggie.
Yay! Love these healthy ideas. Thanks!

I just love this, love everything about it.
And it touches my personal history. Let me see… singing Zeppelin tunes in a band in high school in 1969, check. Met Robert Plant at a party in the mid-70s, and had a pleasant chat about singing harmony, affirmative. Loved Heart from the very first listen, and watched them blow The Eagles off the stage somewhere in California in 1980, yea and verily.
Finally, one must never underestimate the power of a great big stealth choir.
So many years ago that this is almost a story that could start with "once upon a time", my family lived in a very big house, a legacy of the days of grand families and grand architects. The realtor called it a mansion. My family still calls it The Big House.
The first floor was indeed very grand. There was a parlor for company, and a library with built-in shelves. A dining room that overlooked a formal rose garden. A ballroom. The second floor had the good bedrooms, big as New York City studio apartments, with much nicer baths than I have ever had since.
My spirit's home, though, was up one more flight, in the small third floor servants' quarters. There, in a little monk's cell of a room with one window, I had a desk, a chair, a box of onion skin paper, my Sheaffer fountain pen, and a box of ink cartridges. And my companion, Jo March. I wanted to be just like Jo March, and to that end I scribbled page after page of – what? stories, probably, and perhaps some poems. I don't remember, and as my family moved a lot, nothing remains of all that ink except the memory of the texture of the paper, and the sound the pen nib made as I wrote line after line after blotted line. Oh, I wanted to be a writer.
Singing turned out to be easier, and my dear Lord is aware that I rather enjoy the spotlight. But this "words thing" never went away. I care about lyrics, I read aloud to people whenever I can, I do inspirational speaking, Shakespeare's King Lear leaves me sobbing on the floor, for Jo's spell has never worn off. And particularly at this time of year, the connection I feel to this fictitious character and to the extraordinary woman who created – or released – her is especially strong. It has long been my Christmas season practice to read Little Women again. Every year, somehow, it seems a better book.
My pretty little red leather-bound copy is currently in storage with the rest of my things, so I went to the local library. Their copy is for in-library use only – can you imagine? I'd have to wear shoes! But I found another treasure that I could take home: Marmee and Louisa by Eve LaPlante (2012). As far as I know LaPlante is the first author to explore the relationship between Lou and her mother, Abigail. Ever since her death in 1888, conventional wisdom has held that Louisa was her daddy's girl through and through, educated by him, inheritor of his gifts, beneficiary of his attention. That never set quite right with me. If the Alcott family was the model for the March family, why was the father absent for most of the book? Well, as it turns out, Bronson Alcott was also much absent in real life, and he never made a living. His mind on higher things, he seems to have been content to let his wife and daughters do all the work for the lowlier purposes of rent and food. Unlike his wife, Alcott did not particularly believe in the equality of women, and he came late to the abolitionist's cause. It was Abigail (Marmee) who encouraged her daughters to live full, good lives and to work to utilize their gifts, Marmee who wrote volumes of journals. And it was Marmee who worked until her health was ruined, as did Louisa, whose writing supported the family until she died at 56 (her royalties did so thereafter). The relationship between mother and daughter was deep, and necessary for both women. LaPlante's is a beautiful and calmly fierce book, well-researched and well-written, sad in many ways, but ultimately inspiring. Abigail was left out of history; Eve has fixed that.
You can buy the book through LaPlante's website, to which I have inserted a link above. Amazon has it, of course, but if you possibly can, please get it from an independent bookseller.
I have always been a Beatles fan. Always. I remember the first time I heard them, and from that moment on, as far as I was concerned, they were The Ones.
But I had friends, tin-eared and delusional, who thought the Rolling Stones were The Ones. Poor dears! Their sonic worlds were clearly different from mine, and they were clearly wrong.
One thing was certain: nobody liked both. In fact, it was tacitly understood that one was not allowed to like both.
Which meant that I deprived myself, on principle, of the raucous splendor of the Stones music for many years. I still like the Beatles best, and probably always will. But I know now that there are times when only Keith Richards' guitar tones will do.
Over the years, I watched heated arguments over whether Kiss was categorically better than Alice Cooper, jazz better than rock, fusion indisputably better than swing, countertenors better than female altos. Yikes! Either/or, either/or. Choose or lose! Yes, it's necessary, to a certain extent. But it's also choose and lose. The best musicians I know listen to everything, and borrow from everything. Both and all would seem to be their motto, and I think this is the best way to be.
I bring this up today because I am tired of hearing wonderful musicians and singers (including me) complain about Lady Gaga. I think we should stop doing that. Most of us can't do what she does, and there are a lot of folks who really love what she does. Fair enough. Her music and performance style are not to my taste, and so they're not part of my daily life. What does seem to be part of my life is the ceaseless growl of negative comments made by some of the artists I do like.
Most of us are old enough to know better. I think we can do better, if only when in front of other people.
Let's lighten up on each other. Let's speak with a greater measure of grace and dignity, and stop flaying the girls in the meat dresses and the short dresses and no dresses at all. Let's stop muttering about J.K. Rowling's wealth, too (you know who you are). Success does not ensure a trouble-free life. Things can happen. The Wheel of Fortune can turn very quickly. Believe me. I know this very well.
Benjamin Disraeli is credited with having said, "Never complain, and never explain." I'm going to try that, at least for the rest of the afternoon.

If someone isn’t familiar with the concept, why should people seek out fair trade coffee and shop local when buying their morning coffee?
Many places these days are offering fair trade goods where the producers in developing countries are paid fair prices for these goods, especially coffee, but shopping local makes the biggest difference. As a small business, we don't always have the resources to have the most clever marketing campaign or trendiest slogan. We try to provide a great experience for every customer by focusing on service, presentation and cleanliness. You won't get the service we offer at one of the "chains!"
What seasonal offerings should we try at Fair Trade right now?
Our in-house baked goods, such as vegan zucchini muffins, vegan peanut butter bars and brownies, are always favorites. Spring is coming and we brew and keg our own cold brew and nitro coffee which we serve on tap!
We get lots of compliments on our friendly and outgoing staff. We try to keep a fun atmosphere for our employees that is contagious to our customers!
Tell us more about your coffee take-out and private party options.
We just recently partnered with EatStreet for take-out and delivery. We are always open to private parties and other events and encourage interested parties to contact us! Being an independently owned business gives us the flexibility to allow for unique events.
What’s the most popular specialty drink?
Our in-house made Chai is a favorite for Chai tea lattes, and people really love the Grasshopper mocha!
Many people do not realize that we have an intimate and landscaped outdoor seating area that seats 8–10 people at the rear of the cafe. We will be adding more elements to improve the ambiance this spring.
Fair Trade Coffee House is located at 418 State Street and is open daily from 8 a.m.–10 p.m.
Capital Brewery and Bier Garten has an indoor Bier Stube and a large outdoor Bier Garten (a.k.a. 'Middleton's Backyard') that is host to live music and events throughout the year.
Death's Door Distillery is the largest craft spirits distillery in Wisconsin and one of the largest in the Midwest, producing gin, vodka and whiskey.
The Hilton Garden Inn Sun Prairie is a sophisticated destination offering abundant meeting space, the award-winning Johnny's Italian Steakhouse and a relaxing guest experience.
Learn about mustard’s history and laugh in the museum. Taste and learn how to use mustard at the Ultimate Tasting Bar in the Gourmet Gift Shop.
Pizza Brutta makes Neapolitan pizza in a wood oven with handmade fresh mozzarella from local mozzarella curd. Meat and toppings are sourced from local producers whenever possible.

DH Custom Homes and the Hayden family started building homes in The Summit at BaratHaven in 2006 and recently sold out! We offered ranch, two-story & story-and-a-half award-winning home designs within the neighborhood.
The Summit at BaratHaven offered families a unique opportunity to be part of a new community located in a secluded DH Custom Homes neighborhood of 50 homesites between Weldon Spring Road and WingHaven Boulevard. The Summit is situated in the dynamic community of Dardenne Prairie in St. Charles County and provides access within a few steps to everything a community needs: Premier shopping outlets (including Schnucks and Dierbergs Supermarkets), a renowned hospital system (BJC HealthCare), a high tech corridor for business along Highway 40 and proximity to the Great Rivers Greenway District, a unique system of greenways, parks and trails that circles the region. A nearby trail route leads to other local attractions, including a contiguous 15-acre stocked lake perfect for fishing and recreation. O'Fallon and Chesterfield are ideally located only minutes away.
Our Durham ranch gained the attention of the national media, such as The New York Times and Good Morning America, for its first floor guest/second master suite option. It's also a St. Louis Homes & Lifestyles Home of the Year Award winner.
As always, we welcome the opportunity to customize a home to your specifications, whether building a new custom home, or making renovations to your existing home. DH Custom Homes continues you to bring you the highest quality home at the best value, and we maintain our commitment to our customers. For new opportunities, be sure and contact Dennis Hayden today!
Take I-64/Highway 40 to north on Highway K. Turn left on Technology Drive. Turn right on Weldon Spring Road. Turn right on Henning Road. The community entrance, Toussaint Landing Dr., is on the left.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin thinks Americans are right to be fed up with data breaches like the massive hack at Equifax.
Equifax revealed last week that as many as 143 million Americans — roughly half the country — may have had personal information compromised in the hack this summer, one of the worst ever. It exposed vital information such as Social Security numbers, birth dates and even driver’s license numbers.
Mnuchin, speaking at the CNBC Institutional Investor Delivering Alpha Conference, declined to go into specifics about Equifax. He did say he’s “actively involved” and had several calls on Monday about it with Tom Bossert, President Trump’s homeland security adviser.
“I can assure you we are working with all of the intelligence agencies to keep Americans safe,” Mnuchin said.
The FBI said Monday it is investigating the Equifax hack.
The breach was shocking especially because it happened at one of the three national credit-reporting companies that track Americans’ financial histories. These companies are armed with vast amounts of sensitive information, enough for hackers to steal people’s identities.
The hack has drawn scrutiny from Congress, too. Lawmakers from both parties have expressed outrage, and the Republican-controlled House Financial Services Committee is planning a hearing.
But don’t bank on legislation to stop it from happening again. Analysts say there are too many competing interests. And the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress have focused on cutting regulation, not adding restrictions.
–CNNMoney’s Sara Ashley O’Brien and Seth Fiegerman contributed to this report.

Welcome to the new Full Circle Ag website! It has been a long journey; from the first thought of completely redoing our site, to our launch. There has been a lot of time and effort by several people to get where we are and I, for one, am very excited to see it up and running. I will be bringing you Weekly Insights, which will consist of weekly comments and information on the markets for the week. In future issues, there will be some information on pricing, contracting, advice, and general overall information from the energy department that my co-workers and I feel is pertinent to you.
Many of you have been requesting this since we quit publishing the previous email. This issue is an introductory issue which was written approximately 10 days prior to launch to test the new site, unfortunately no pertinent market information is available that far in advance. Look for that information and much more in future issues. As always, we at Full Circle Ag thank you for and appreciate your business.

In the last two decades there has been an increasing interest in the literary aspects of the Life of Constantine (VC) and a number of recent studies have touched on Eusebius’ use of the figure of Moses in this work. In the introduction and commentary to their translation, Averil Cameron and Stuart G. Hall show a keen interest in the parallels between Constantine and Moses and even call these parallels “the most obvious device used by Eusebius in the Life of Constantine to bring home his ideological message.” In a similar way, Claudia Rapp has called these parallels a Leitmotif in the work. Several recent studies have also sought to explain why Eusebius chose precisely the model of Moses for his term of comparison. According to Cameron and Hall, the comparison between Constantine and Moses “was perfectly suited to the work’s apologetic purpose.” By portraying Constantine as the successor of Moses, Eusebius provided a precise and detailed demonstration of how God’s plan for Christian government on earth was realized. Michael J. Hollerich also stresses the apologetic purpose of Eusebius’ use of Moses. According to Hollerich, however, Eusebius was not only drawn to Moses as a biblical exemplum for Constantine in order to stress his divinely inspired mission and his example of a godly life, he also invoked the figure of Moses in order “to sanction behavior that appeared to contradict traditional Christian views on the taking of life.” Taking a somewhat different approach, Sabrina Inowlocki has suggested that: “Eusebius’ portrayal of Moses also testifies to the ambiguity of the legislator in Christianity.” According to Inowlocki, Eusebius skilfully exploits the ambivalence of Moses in order to achieve apologetic purposes. Thus Eusebius compared Constantine with Moses in order to identify him as a figure de l’entre deux. According to Inowlocki, Moses himself is portrayed as a figure de l’entre deux in Eusebius’ thought as being both a Hebrew and the founder of Judaism. Referring to Eusebius’ apologetic works, the Praeparatio Evangelica and the Demonstratio Evangelica, Inowlocki demonstrates that Moses appears as an ambivalent character whose different facets are exploited according to the context. On the one hand, the figure of Moses is continuously glorified in the pagan-Christian debate described in the Praeparatio Evangelica. On the other hand, the description of Moses is far less enthusiastic in the Jewish-Christian debate described in the Demonstratio Evangelica. According to Inowlocki, Eusebius thus implicitly identifies Constantine as a figure de l’entre deux by choosing Moses as an exemplum for Constantine.
What is common to these suggestions is that they all take for granted that the comparison with Moses was invented by Eusebius himself. In this article, I shall suggest another approach, namely that it was actually Constantine (or his near advisers) who originally fabricated the comparison with Moses as part of his propaganda. As we shall see, Eusebius’ use of the comparison probably reuses much material from Constantine’s Moses propaganda, but he also seems to have reshaped some parts of it in order to promote his own interests. Moreover, I shall argue that Philo’s portrait of Moses as a model ruler in his Life of Moses was an important source for Eusebius’ idealized portrait of Constantine and his revision of Constantine’s Moses propaganda.
Interestingly, it is in the speech that Eusebius attaches to the Life of Constantine that we come upon Constantine’s own use of Moses. In order to support his paraphrase of Constantine’s speeches (VC 4.29.2–5), Eusebius promises to append to the Life of Constantine an example of one of the emperor’s own speeches which he refers to as “To the Assembly of the Saints” (VC 4.32). The authenticity of the speech was long in doubt, but is now generally considered to be authentic by the majority of scholars. The speech seems to address a Christian audience—most likely bishops—but the date as well as the venue and occasion for the speech are still in question. I shall come back to this issue later.
[. . .] in accordance with the decree of God shattered the arrogance of Pharaoh, the greatest potentate of the time, and destroyed his army, victor as it was over many of the greatest nations and fenced round with arms—not by shooting arrows or launching javelins, but just by holy prayer and meek adoration.
Now in my view a ministry is most lovely and excellent when someone, before the attempt, ensures that what is done will be secure. And all human beings know that the most holy devotion of these hands is owed to God with pure faith of the strictest kind, and that all that has been accomplished with advantage is achieved by joining the hands in prayers and litanies, with as much private and public assistance as everyone might pray for on his own behalf and that of those dearest to him. They indeed have witnessed the battles and observed the war in which God’s providence awarded victory to the people, and have seen God co- operating with our prayers. For righteous prayer is an invincible thing, and no-one who pays holy adoration is disappointed of his aim.
What could one say about Moses to match his worth? Leading a disorderly people into good order, having set their souls in order by persuasion and awe, he procured freedom for them in place of captivity, and he made their faces bright instead of blear.
As Michael Williams has recently suggested, “It is difficult to read this as anything other than a kind of idealised portrait of the first Christian emperor—that is, as a portrait of Constantine himself.” Williams’ suggestion is, I believe, right on target. There are, however, some rather important political motives for Constantine’s use of Moses that Williams does not examine, probably because he regards the speech as a conventional defense of Christianity. For if Constantine should be seen as a new Moses, how should Christian subjects then catch the spirit of their own part? An audience acquainted with Paul’s use of the Israelites as negative examples in 1 Corinthians 10 (where the wayward followers of Moses were destroyed in the wilderness) would probably not be slow to hear Constantine’s reference to the Moses narratives as a dire warning to themselves concerning internal discord. Thus, Constantine continues his panegyric of his predecessor by describing how the Israelites “became superhumanly boastful” though Moses was their sovereign. If Constantine had only referred to Moses in order to legitimize his own rule, he would probably not have touched on the Israelites’ acts of disobedience in the wilderness. Like Paul, Constantine seems, by contrast, to exploit the Moses narratives in order to control his Christian audience. Thus, when he reminds his audience that “no people would ever or could ever have been more blessed than that one [the Israelites], had they not voluntarily cut off their souls from the Holy Spirit” (Oration to the Saints 17), he makes a convenient agreement between the Holy Spirit and Moses, since it was of course Moses who had set their souls in order in the first place. By appending the Oration to the Saints to his Life of Constantine, Eusebius provides us with a fascinating glimpse of Constantine skilfully making use of the example of Moses in order to advance his own political agenda, namely to control the bishops.
The first time Eusebius himself invokes the Moses narratives in relation to Constantine is in the well-known passage in the ninth book of the Ecclesiastical History (HE) probably composed in 314 or 315. In this passage, Eusebius compares Constantine’s victory over Maxentius at the Milvian Bridge in 312 with the defeat of Pharaoh at the Red Sea (HE 9.9.2–8). Though the passage seems to be Eusebius’ own invention, he could actually have been inspired by Constantine’s Oration to the Saints if we accept an early date of delivery. According to Girardet, the speech was delivered by Constantine in Trier or Rome at Easter 314. With Girardet and Edwards, I take the field “prepared for battle” mentioned in chapter 22 to be the battlefield of the Milvian Bridge, and Constantine’s reference to the tyrant of the most dear city “who was suddenly overtaken in a fitting manner worthy of his atrocities” (Oration to the Saints 22) as referring to Maxentius. Though Constantine does not himself compare the battle at the Milvian Bridge explicitly with the battle at the Red Sea, he refers to the defeat of Pharaoh earlier in the speech and even in a context that, as we have seen, might be viewed as an implicit comparison of Constantine with Moses. As Girardet has argued, the speech was probably also sent out as a circular letter to all bishops in Constantine’s part of the empire and therefore also translated into Greek at the same occasion in order to address congregations in places such as South Italy and Sicily. If the speech had received such a wide distribution, Eusebius could have learned about it as he composed the ninth book of the Ecclesiastical History. Eusebius’ comparison of Constantine’s victory at the Milvian Bridge with the battle at the Red Sea might thus develop a potential in Constantine’s own speech. However, while Constantine would probably approve Eusebius’ comparison in the Ecclesiastical History (and perhaps even regret that he had not developed it himself), I shall argue that not all Eusebius’ parallels between Constantine and Moses in the Life of Constantine would play Constantine’s game. On the contrary, some of Eusebius’ parallels might be read as an attempt to turn Constantine’s own Moses propaganda upside down.
Eusebius does not, however, follow the lead of Constantine in all of his Moses parallels. Thus, for instance, his portrait of Constantine differs from Constantine’s self-portrait in the Oration to the Saints. In his description of Constantine’s miraculous vision before the battle with Maxentius, Eusebius claims that Constantine decided to venerate his father’s God (VC 1.27.3) though Constantine claims that he had not been raised a Christian (Oration to the Saints 11). Eusebius probably changed this, because he wanted to enhance the parallel between Constantine’s vision and Moses’ vision in Exodus 3:6 where God identifies himself to Moses as “the God of your father.” But there may also be another and more important reason for the change, namely Eusebius’ wish to turn Constantine into a convenient model for his own sons. As most scholars agree, the Life of Constantine should probably be read as a “mirror for princes.” Perhaps Eusebius, who had recently hymned Constantine (as he himself notes in the very first lines of the work, cf. VC 1.1.1), might even have planned to take the liberty to present copies of his Life of Constantine to the new Augusti. In presenting to Constantine’s sons a portrait of their father as a Christian emperor, Eusebius was in the privileged position that such a portrait was without precedent. Thus he was in a sense free to claim a particular action as characteristic of a Christian emperor and thereby bring his influence to bear on what did and did not fall within the sphere of Christianity. When Eusebius implicitly claims that Constantine had been raised as a Christian and that he turned to his “father’s God” at a crucial point in his career, Eusebius has probably the three brothers Augusti in mind. Thus, in Eusebius’ version, the scene is laid for Constantine’s sons imitating their father (like Constantine, cf. VC 1.12.3) in order for them to adhere to the God of their father.
Sometimes he [Constantine] encouraged them [his sons] while they were with him with personal admonitions to copy him and taught them to make themselves imitators of his godly piety. Sometimes when communicating with them in their absence about imperial matters he would express his exhortations in writing, the greatest and most important of these being that they should prize the knowledge of God the King of all and devotion to him above all wealth and even above Empire. By now he had also given them authority to take action for the public good by themselves, and he urged them that one of their prime concerns should be the Church of God, instructing them to be frankly Christian.
The agreement between this passage and the introduction to the Life of Constantine is rather significant. At the beginning of the work, Eusebius provided the reader with the basic threads of the work, namely the contrast between Constantine and his rivals and the likeness between the life of Constantine and the lives of the God-beloved men as recorded in Scripture—in particular, the life of Moses. Here Constantine is claimed to be a present “example to all mankind of the life of godliness” (VC 1.3.4) and “a lesson in the pattern of godliness to the human race” (VC 1.4.1). By claiming agreement between how Constantine had presented himself to his sons and the way Eusebius now presents him to “all mankind,” Eusebius probably hoped to oblige the Augusti to comply with his picture of their father. For if they would choose another line of action than suggested in Eusebius’ portrait of Constantine, they would find themselves in conflict with the way they had purportedly been instructed by their own father. From the biblical narratives, Eusebius would know that succession through descent was a difficult undertaking. However, by reusing Constantine’s comparison with Moses, Eusebius was able to stress that good kingship was not based on descent, but on godliness. Ironically, Eusebius pays Constantine back in his own coin, so to speak. For just as Constantine used Moses to control the bishops, so Eusebius uses the same figure to promote his own view of how Constantine’s sons should rule.
[. . .] traveled every virtuous road and took pride in fruits of piety (eusebeias) of every kind. By the magnanimity of his helpful actions he enslaved those who knew him, and ruled by humane (philanthrôpias) laws, making his government agreeable and much prayed for by the governed.
Similarly, Eusebius later claims that Constantine’s decrees were not only full of philanthropy: they were also a token of his piety towards God (VC 2.20.1). In sum, philanthropy is said to have been Constantine’s most conspicuous quality (VC 4.54.1).
[. . .] perhaps loved her [philanthropy] more than anyone else has done, since he knew that she was a high road leading to piety, [and he accordingly] used to incite and train all his subjects to fellowship, setting before them the monument of his own life like an original design to be their beautiful model.
In his use of Philo’s figure of Moses as a model for his own portrait of Constantine, Eusebius shows himself to be more like an independent biographer than a servile eulogist. By using Philo’s Life of Moses as an inspiration for his idealized portrait of Constantine as a Christian emperor, Eusebius revises Constantine’s Moses propaganda in order to influence those with influence at court—not least Constantine’s sons themselves.
As we have seen, Constantine himself already appeals to Moses and the Exodus narratives in his Oration to the Saints. Eusebius was accordingly not the first to compare Constantine and Moses; on the contrary, the comparison probably came into being in Constantine’s own propaganda machine. Eusebius, however, not only reproduces the propaganda, he also adapts the comparison to his own agenda. Thus, whereas Constantine used the comparison to issue a subtle warning to his audience of bishops concerning their divisive behavior, Eusebius, by contrast, focuses on the similarities between Constantine and Moses in order to control and define the character of the Constantinian dynasty.
He [Constantine] alone of all the Roman emperors has honoured God the All-sovereign with exceeding godly piety [. . .] and surely he alone has deserved in life itself and after death such things as none could say has ever been achieved by any other among either Greeks or barbarians, or even among the ancient Romans, for his like has never been recorded from the beginning of time until our day.

Of the four books that constitute the Life of Constantine, the comparison between Constantine and Moses is most pronounced in the first book and the beginning of the second book. In the latter half of the second book, the nature of the work changes radically. Whereas hitherto the work has comprised a narrative with next to no documentary evidence, more than half of the remaining work contains documents with only a minimum of narrative to link them. Since these documents are now usually accepted as mostly or entirely genuine (cf. Jones and Skeat 1954:196–200, Cameron and Hall 1999:16–21), we may assume that Eusebius did not shape the latter half of the work to the same degree as the first half. This may explain why the explicit comparison between Constantine and Moses fades out at this point of the narrative. Whether this be due to Eusebius’ primary commitment to bring documentary evidence or because of the unfinished character of the Life of Constantine (Pasquali’s thesis that Eusebius died before finishing the Life of Constantine and that the unfinished work was published by an unknown editor has long been adopted by most scholars, cf. Pasquali 1910) or simply because he ran out of steam, we cannot say. It may also be that Eusebius simply left it for his readers to decide. Since the readers have been presented with the comparison between Constantine and Moses in the first half of the work, they are in a sense made susceptible to such reasoning and may find themselves continuing keying Constantine to Moses as the (sporadic) narrative proceeds. Thus, for instance, just as Moses became occupied with internal threats immediately after the exodus event (Exodus 15:24), so in Eusebius’ own narrative, Constantine had to deal with the rumblings of the later internal Christian dissension, the Easter dispute and the Arian controversy. Also the account of Constantine’s death seems to be wholly consistent with the narratives of the death of Moses. Both Moses and Constantine are depicted as enjoying good health prior to their death and as being of advanced age (VC 4.53, Deuteronomy 34:7) and both deliver a kind of farewell speech before dying, since they know that their death is approaching (VC 4.55.2–3, Deuteronomy 1:1–33:29); they are, of course, mourned (VC 4.65–67, Deuteronomy 34:8) and, more importantly both narratives conclude unanimously by claiming that its protagonist was without a peer (VC 4.75, Deuteronomy 34:10–12).

[ back ] 7. Inowlocki 2007:244. Inowlocki relies on the work of Gilbert Dagron, who has argued that Eusebius was reluctant to present the emperor as a “universal bishop” by signalling the title as metaphorical by a “like” and emptying the words of its institutional sense (VC 1.44.1), cf. Dagron 1996:133–134.

[ back ] 19. Girardet 2007:79.
[ back ] 20. The speech was not the only document that Eusebius had obtained a copy of quickly. As normally pointed out, the six Constantinian documents that he quotes in book 10 of the Ecclesiastical History may also have had a rapid transmission. If book 9 was composed at the same time as the beginning of book 10, such as Schwartz argued, Eusebius may have received the speech together with the other Constantinian documents. Concerning the provenance of Eusebius’ copies of the six Constantinian documents and their translation, see Carotenuto 2002:56–71.
[ back ] 21. Just as Constantine does in the speech (Oration to the Saints 22), Eusebius also calls Maxentius a tyrant, and in so doing Eusebius recasts Maxentius as a new pharaoh (compare Ecclesiastical History 9.9.4 and 9.9.8). Concerning Eusebius’ use of the Greek word tyrannos as reflecting Constantinian propaganda, see Barnes 2011:55 and Grünewald 1990:68–69.
[ back ] 22. Unless otherwise noted translations of the Life of Constantine are from Cameron and Hall 1999.
[ back ] 23. Barnes 1982:39–42. T. G. Elliott suggests that Constantine was already a Christian during the persecution and lied about his age in order to avoid answering embarrassing questions about the way in which he, as a Christian, had escaped from the court of Diocletian (Elliott 1987:425–427). See now Barnes 2011:46–60.
[ back ] 24. Eusebius gives Constantine’s correct age at his death, namely 64 (VC 4.53, see also 1.5). This age is, however, in direct opposition to the age given here in the VC 1.12.1–2 and in 1.19.1 (and the age Constantine himself gives in the VC 2.51.1), where he makes Constantine younger than he actually was. The emphasis on youth at the accession and advanced age at the death are both panegyrical topoi.
[ back ] 25. Exodus 2:11–12 LXX.
[ back ] 26. Exodus 2:15.
[ back ] 28. In his description of Constantine’s character, Eusebius claims that he himself had known Constantine as one with “an imperial quality of mind” (VC 1.19.1) when he travelled through Palestine in the company of Diocletian (apparently in 301–302). Moreover, Eusebius portrays Constantine as: “In handsome physique and bodily height no other could bear comparison with him; in physical strength he so exceeded his contemporaries as even to put them in fear; he took pride in moral qualities rather than physical superiority, ennobling his soul first and foremost with self-control, and thereafter distinguishing himself by the excellence of his rhetorical education, his instinctive shrewdness and his God-given wisdom” (1.19.2). Eusebius’ portrait is one of the ideal emperor where inner virtue is reflected in the outward appearance.
[ back ] 29. In the Latin Panegyrics, Constantius is also presented as a pagan, see Latin Panegyrics 6(7).3.3–4 (from the year 307) and Latin Panegyrics 9(12).25 (from the year 313). On Constantius’ religion, see also Cameron 2006:22–23.
[ back ] 30. The change is somewhat inconsistent, since Constantine is said to be unacquainted with the cross in VC 1.32. As H. A. Drake has argued, Eusebius’ concern here seems to be to make Constantine dependent on “those expert in his words” (VC 1.32.1), namely the bishops or clergy (Drake 2000:391).
[ back ] 31. If he had such a plan, he died before carrying it into effect. Eusebius praises Constantine’s sons mainly in the introduction and conclusion to the work, see VC 1.1.3, 2.19.3, and 4.68–72. See also 4.51–52 for an account of their preparation for succession. The Life of Constantine seems to have been generally unknown in the fourth century and does not appear in Jerome’s list of Eusebius’ works (cf. Winkelmann 1964:91–119). As Cameron notes, the glories and the details of Constantine’s life and acts were soon past history, since there was no particular need for verification and no particular interest in this type of work under Constantius II (Cameron 1983:87).
[ back ] 32. As several scholars have pointed out, Eusebius may have worked energetically in the Life of Constantine to establish the rightness of his own cause and to claim imperial support for it (cf. Barnes 1981:269–270, Cameron 1997:166–168). Thus, according to Barnes and Cameron, Eusebius’ account of the Arian controversy and the Council of Nicaea (VC 2.61–3.24) was designed to conceal any hint of Eusebius’ own recent condemnation and his subsequent change of heart. Cameron and Barnes also call attention to the fact that Eusebius omits any reference to the change in Constantine’s stance later in the reign when the exiles of Nicaea were recalled and the baptism of Constantine by Eusebius of Nicomedia whom he had earlier exiled took place (4.41–42, 61).
[ back ] 33. Drake 2000:68.
[ back ] 34. Translation slightly modified.
[ back ] 35. Exodus 33:11 LXX. (Translations of LXX-Exodus are by Perkins 2007.) Interestingly, Johnson has argued that Eusebius uses the phrase enôpios enôpiôi in the Eclogae Propheticae (General Elementary Introduction) to lessen the spiritual level of Moses (Johnson 2006:118).
[ back ] 36. Numenius uses the phrase in a fragment that is actually preserved by Eusebius himself in his Praeparatio Evangelica 11.22.1: “Thus, far from the visible world, must he commune with the Good, being alone with the alone (monôi monon), far from man, or living being, or any body, small or great, in an inexpressible, indefinable, immediately divine solitude. There, in radiant beauty, dwells the Good, brooding over existence in a manner which though solitary and dominating, is both peaceful, gracious and friendly” (English translation: Guthrie 1987). Plotinus uses the phrase in his Enneads I 6.7: “So we must ascend again to the good, which every soul desires. Anyone who has seen it knows what I mean when I say that it is beautiful. It is desired as good, and the desire for it is directed to good, and the attainment of it is for those who go up to the higher world and are converted and strip off what we put on in our descent; [. . .] until, passing in the ascent all that is alien to the God, one sees with one’s self alone That alone, simple, single and pure, from which all depends (heôs an tis parelthôn en têi anabasei pan hoson allotrion tou theou autôi monôi auto monon idêi eilikrines, haploun, katharon, aph’ hou panta exêrtêtai) and to which all look and are and live and think: for it is cause of life and mind and being” (English translation: Armstrong 1966, my emphasis).
[ back ] 37. Later Gregory of Nazianzus did also rephrase Exodus 33:11 LXX in this way in his On Virtues (Carmina 1.2.10.501–502).
[ back ] 38. I have only found one reference in which Plutarch mentions philanthropy and piety in close connection, namely in his On the Fortune of Alexander. In enumerating Alexander’s virtues, Plutarch mentions among other things philanthropy and piety, but does not link them in any substantial way (Plutarch Moralia 342F). On philanthropy in the writings of Plutarch, see Hirzel 1912:23–32, Ruiter 2004:824–839, Hubert 1961:164–175.
[ back ] 39. See also Veldhuizen 1985:215–224.
[ back ] 40. For Philo’s use of piety and philanthropy, see for instance Sterling 2006:103–123, Winston 1984:372–416.
[ back ] 41. Translations of On the Virtues are from Colson 1939 (here slightly modified).
[ back ] 42. The typical topoi of philanthropy are treated in the third-century treatise on epideictic rhetoric attributed to Menander of Laodicea. The treatise recommends dealing with the virtue of philanthropy in relation to the victories of the emperor suggesting the author of a basilikos logos to write that, “Justice is a portion of his philanthropy: for when victorious, the emperor did not repay the aggressors in kind, but divided his actions in just proportion between punishment and humanity; having done what he thought enough to chastise, and having stopped at this point out of humane feeling, he conceded that the relics of the race should be saved, partly in order that the remnant might remain as a memorial of what had befallen them, but partly also to demonstrate his philanthropy” (Menander Rhetor 374.27–375.4; English translation: Russell and Wilson 1981).
[ back ] 43. Goodenough 1938:94–95.
[ back ] 44. Gerald S. Vigna, who originally suggested that Eusebius depends on Philo in singling out piety and philanthropy as the main virtues in the Life of Constantine, argues that Constantine’s almsgiving should be situated within his kingly function rather than his duties as a Christian, since he couches it in traditional royal language by referring to him as a philanthropist and a benefactor and by using sun imagery (VC 1.43.1–3). It therefore seems likely that this motif should be seen in the light of Philo’s elucidation of Moses’ philanthropic legislation as much as in comparison with the Christian theology of almsgiving (Vigna 1980:125–126). Philo and Eusebius also use the same imagery of Moses and Constantine, speaking of them as people who cared for the orphaned in their father’s stead (On the Virtues 91, VC 1.43.2). See also Praeparatio Evangelica 8.14 where Eusebius quotes from Philo’s lost treatise on Providence to the effect that the title father was the most fitting for a king.
[ back ] 45. The comparison with Cyrus and Alexander the Great conforms entirely to conventional practice. They are both mentioned in the treatise on epideictic rhetoric attributed to Menander as appropriate subjects for comparison in the section devoted to the basilikos logos; see Menander Rhetor 371.3–10; 377.2–10. As such, the choice of Cyrus and Alexander as exemplars appears somewhat vapid. Perhaps they have been selected in order to exclude the history of imperial Rome, as Williams has suggested (Williams 2008:50).
[ back ] 46. Friedrich Focke notices in his excellent essays on synkrisis that comparison has almost become a mania in encomia. Thus, in the comparison between the tyrants and Constantine in the VC 3.1–3, Eusebius uses the pattern hoi men—ho de as many as fifteen times (Focke 1923:338).
[ back ] 47. Williams 2008:51. Eusebius does, however, mention Nero briefly in VC 1.10.2 and he makes a general and brief comparison with “all the Roman emperors” in VC 4.75 (see below).
[ back ] 48. Williams 2008:50.
[ back ] 49. Cf. Deuteronomy 34:10–12.

For most of us, a warm up is a few stretches and some light exercise a few minutes before an event. Although this is better than no warm up at all, physiotherapy from Halsa Care can enhance your performance and eliminate the risk of injury.
Warming up is essential before any sporting activity. A good warm up will lead to an effective performance and reduce the risk of injury! To avoid an injury, your muscles must be warm, supple and fully oxygenised. Your body works best when oxygen is being pumped to your muscles.
A proper warm up is particularly important for people with existing injuries. Problem areas should be given extra attention. Warming up will avoid creating any additional problems and inhibiting recovery.
Just as you would maintain your equipment before a big event, you must maintain your muscles. Trained physiotherapists can advise you on how to avoid sports injuries, as well as correcting any existing problems. Having a physiotherapy massage before a competition will make sure your body is ready to win!
Physiotherapy treatments can help improve the suppleness and flexibility of your muscles and joints. It can also prevent future injuries, remedy existing ones and relax your muscles.
Having physiotherapy session during your training program will speed up the healing of injuries and prevent any more from developing.
Before a big event, a massage will help stimulate your circulation, calm nervous tension, and ensure your body is working to perfection.
Having a deep tissue massage a week or so before your competition will ensure muscles are relaxed, supple and working a full mobility. Having it this far in advance will ensure your body has time to get over the fatigue that often comes with deep tissue massages.
A few days before the big day, a light, flush-out massage may be beneficial. This will help flush out the lymphatic system, create newly oxygenated blood and increase the body’s circulation.

Annoyed at Android media players in general I’ve written my own. The point? To be able to play long running audio files like university lectures or audio books. Available for free in the Apps -> Books and Reference section on Android market (or if you’re technically inclined, download the apk yourself).
* customise these features as you desire.
* never see your music again! If you want to just see (eg) lectures, you can filter out your music tracks.
* some “application taking too long to respond messages”. Hard to diagnose.
* this is a player only. You need to get your media onto your phone first.
Microsoft Word has a somewhat repugnant feature called “comments”. The concept of comments is not so bad, but the implementation in Word is definitely annoying. Why? Because to read the comments you basically need to be in Word with the document open and either use their awful “bubble” interface to read the comments (where the comments are shown in the margin), hover your pointer over the (nearly imperceptible) comment markers () or open up the comment pane at the bottom.
The upshot is that printing the doc and reading it in a more comfortable setting is a no no. If you *do* print it out, the comments are unhelpfully located right at the end of the document so you need to back-and-forth from the text to the comments.
So I wrote myself a short script to inline those damnable comments (GPLv3). It requires the command line and is written in Python. If there is a modicum of interest it wouldn’t be much trouble to write a simple GUI frontend.
Be warned – the quid pro quo for doing this is you lose a lot of your formatting :( Try using Word’s compare to see the markup between the original.doc and outfile.txt to show the comments.
Lauren Weinstein reports on a new feature of an update to Windows 7 (apparently called KB971033?), which continually checks (once every 90 days) to see whether the installation is authorised/activated/validly licensed. Some sites have discussed this and made something of the fact that it is voluntary to install, and/or checks to see that the installation is valid even if it has verified the copy as valid and even if the copy has already been authorised.
I tend to think this has not so much to do with piracy per se as solving a couple of Microsoft’s other problems. The first is the lumpiness of Microsoft’s revenue. It gets a heap of extra revenue when it releases new versions of whatever. Microsoft has tried to overcome this by its assurance programs, in which users are asked to sign on to a subscription program. However, ultimately the subscription programs are dependent upon Microsoft actually releasing new versions from time to time (what a drag!).
The second is the problem of proving losses. If you make an illegal copy of a Microsoft product and then buy a legitimate copy (or as many legitimate copies as illegal copies you have made), exactly what has Microsoft lost? Microsoft, for example, gets the same amount of money, it just gets it at a different time. This is because there is no tying of the license to a particular period of time. If a person made an illegal copy of Windows98 (say) 10 years ago and buys a legitimate copy today (yes, I know that may not be possible in fact) it is hard to see what Microsoft has actually lost, except the time value of money over the past 10 years (this, unfortunately, might lead to ‘gaming’ of the system, where a person makes illegitimate copies until they are caught, then buys legitimate copies to cover their nefarious activity). Note: There is nothing specific about Microsoft to this argument, it applies generally to software licenses which are not limited in time.
Both of these problems are solved by tying. Microsoft began tying a long time ago by tying copies to specific hardware. This is what the authentication stickers are all about. Their purpose is not to prevent piracy. Rather, their purpose is to prevent a legitimate purchaser moving a particular copy from one computer to another. If they can’t move the copy then, the theory goes, they must buy a new copy. Moreover, by withdrawing product from the market, Microsoft can force upgrades to new versions of Windows. If someone could take their legitimate copy of Windows XP from their old computer (and wiping the old computer and loading it with Linux) and load it onto their new computer, would they have bought Vista?
The next form of tying is to time. The point of having the check being performed once every 90 days is to allow for the prospect of quarterly licensing. You pay a fee each quarter in order to have continued access to your data. The 90 day phone home is just the latest piece in the puzzle. Others are things such as the time limited trial installations of office that OEMs force onto people. In a year or two you will no doubt see Microsoft offering (initially) optional, low priced time limited licenses, with a view to moving the market over to the new licensing scheme over time. Time limited licensing may also alleviate (although maybe not solve?) a problem that Microsoft faces with the Netbook form factor – that is, it is too expensive to pay any significant amount for a windows licence on a $300 (or cheaper) machine. However, if you have a time based license, the first three (or six) months might be given away free or charged at a low amount. This would allow hardware manufacturers to legitimately sell Windows loaded machines at the same price point as a Linux loaded alternative.
Received an email from the SFLC today. It seems that Best Buy, Samsung, Westinghouse, JVC and Western Digital are all defendants to a busybox based lawsuit initiated through the SFLC. Complaint is here.
Pyrrhus of Epirus, quoted by Plutarch in Life of Pyrrhus.
About 18 months ago a silver (actually white) bullet known as the eeePC running Linux appeared. They were literally sold out immediately (example story) – despite the fact that they were pre-loaded with Linux, and well before the onset of austerity from the financial crisis. Within 2 or 3 months a version of the eeePC running Windows XP was announced, first shipping in early (perhaps Jan??) 2008. At about the six-eight month mark (give or take) people were happy to report the form factor being sold at 70-30% in favour of Linux (google it or see Brendan Leblanc’s claim of “under 10%” in the first half of 2008).
Microsoft’s reaction to the success of the eeePC seems, on reflection, to have been well and professionally executed. Indeed, now that the specifications have been upscaled, Microsoft has announced an intention to increase the licensing fees for this form factor. That leaves open to question however, how the eeePC was able to be released sans Windows in the first place. It is difficult to believe that Microsoft had no knowledge of it. If they did have knowledge, they certainly could have struck a deal over it (as the fact that they subsequently struck such a deal demonstrates). They presumably chose not to strike such a deal. Only ASUS and Microsoft really know what happened, but it does not seem wildly outside the evidence available to speculate that ASUS was initially rebuffed by Microsoft and then has had Microsoft approach them cap in hand.
– and that is the crux of it. In 2007-08 ASUS appears to have achieved what no other computer manufacturer has managed to do in perhaps over 20 years – it dictated the terms of supply of Microsoft’s products, both in terms of price and availability (XP’s sales availability was either ended or imminently to end). Given the position of Microsoft this, of itself, is a remarkable achievement. However ASUS’ achievement was even more far reaching. Not only do they appear to have dictated terms, but the terms were, in effect, that XP be sold both as a commodity and as a complement to the eeePC. Commoditising your complements is the holy grail of business. It allows you to extract the most value/price premium from the sale of your products.
Far from showing strength, the wide availability of Windows on netbooks is a sign of weakness.
The eeePC was the proof of concept for a Linux based future. There is something incredibly powerful about achieving an apparently unachievable goal. Until something has been shown to be achievable, only the very brave or committed will even attempt it. However, once something has been shown to be possible, many people suddenly become willing to attempt it, and with more people attempting it, each new comer learns faster from the experiences of others. Consider the history of scaling Everest, with some 30 years from the first attempt in 1922 to Hillary and Tenzing’s first successful ascent in 1953, the time since has been peppered with many additional ascents, including ascents under different conditions such as an ascent without supplementary oxygen, which was once thought too difficult.
It should therefore not be much of a surprise that many companies are now making strategic investments in Linux (reload the link if you don’t get there on the first attempt). Some companies (such as Dell, Acer and HP) are expressly supporting Linux as a desktop operating system.
Nothing here should be taken as indicating backruptcy any time soon (- or ever!), or that there is imminent danger of Microsoft ceasing its participation in the IT sector. It’s involvement is broad and deep and will not fade for a long time. General Electric, for example, continues to live on after having diversified into many different areas over the past 100 years (Wikipedia claims that half of its revenue now comes from financial services). Rather, it seems that the days of Microsoft-as-we-knew-it, the corporation which could dictate, at least to some non-trivial extent, many aspects of the IT industry through its leverage over OEMs are over. Microsoft cannot afford for an OEM to stare them down on the next eeePC – another Linux based success on the scale of the eeePC would remove any doubt from the minds of the industry.
If this assessment is correct, we would expect to see other industry participants investing in open source, and in Linux in particular, as both a hedge and as negotiating leverage. Indeed, assuming that ASUS has extracted concessions from Microsoft, other OEMs will be disadvantaged if they do not follow a similar strategy (see this story on Acer’s proposed support of Linux for example). Loading Linux now appears to be a path to strength. Google is pursuing it.
The eeePC experience was the case study for the viability of a Linux based future. If ASUS has used the Linux eeePC to extract negotiating concessions from Microsoft, then it has, in the process, also undermined Microsoft’s credibility, opening the way for other vendors to play into this gap. Further, if ASUS has secured concessions then other vendors who do not pursue an aggressive Linux strategy will put themselves at a disadvantage. There is therefore an internal logic to the market which will drive support for Linux installations going forward.
I’ve not been able to pinpoint the initial launch date for the eeePC, although it seems to be 16 October 2007.
Many secondary documents had to be referred to because primary documents were updated, losing the time relevant information.
The Windows versions of the eeePC were curiously configured in such a way that there was no direct comparison between Linux and Windows versions. This was also true of some Acer models. Dell now seems to offer direct comparison (eg lattitude 2100).
James Love has published some details about the current ACTA negotiations. Copyright ideologues have been (successfully) pushing for extreme legislation for several years. Each time new legislation is passed, it is only a stepping stone towards even more extreme legislation. Any reasonable person picked up from the 70s and dropped in the 00s would be stunned by how completely copyright ideology has infected the legislative process. Indeed, by germinating in international fora, it subverts the process. Copyright ideologues use international treaties to enforce or extend domestic legislation, bypassing local legislatures and then requiring them to enact the provisions. Any time anyone objects about the disparity between the ideology and reality, they are slapped down with “International Obligations”.
Criminal sanctions for copyright infringement have always been tied to infringement for the purpose of sale of the infringing article. This provides an understandable ground rule for determining what is and what is not criminal (ie “was this copy made for the purpose of sale?”). These new provisions would convert any infringing activity into a crime based (apparently) on the number of times it has occurred. Exactly what will constitute “commercial scale” is anyone’s guess. However, is it unreasonable to assume that any copies beyond what is absolutely necessary for a person’s own use, with no allowance for ordinary convenience will be liable to being classified as being of a commercial scale? If you make a copy for the bedroom and a copy for the car, will you be skirting “commercial scale”?
Imagine other crimes in this mold: watching Hollywood movies -> not a crime; watching Hollywood movies “too much” -> crime. One might object that watching movies is not itself actionable (not yet, anyway). This doesn’t affect the argument. For example, consider the crime: breaching your loan/other contract -> not a crime; breaching your loan/other contract “too much” -> crime. Imagine how many former homeowners would now be in the slammer?
What is unstated here is that a likely consequence of this is that in practice the crime will be one of strict liability. Normally actions are not themselves criminal unless they are accompanied by the requisite intent – and conversely having the requisite intent will not normally be a crime in the absence of some prohibited action (in Latin actus reus non facit reum nisi mens sit rea). However, the only action constituting the crime here will be the making of a certain number of copies (willfully – see above). Intention will resolve to whether or not the person meant to make those copies, or whether it was some sort of accident.
(d) the infringement or infringements occur on a commercial scale.
(d) the infringement or infringements occur on a commercial scale and the person is negligent as to that fact.
If you are corporate counsel and you are not gobsmacked by this section, you probably haven’t read it properly. This provision seems to imply you can go to jail if you’re negligent when you give advice on whether some activity infringes copyright. If you are the manager of the production line of an embedded device and aren’t gobsmacked, you probably haven’t read it properly. It seems to imply you’ll go to jail if you’re negligent in implementing the licensing contract that your company signed. If you’re any kind of manager involved in the reproduction of anything, you should be gobsmacked (wherever you are, but particularly if you’re in Australia).
Indeed, the AUSFTA has exactly the provisions necessary to remove any meaning from “willful” (see section 17.11.4 here). If anyone wants to know what will be in ACTA and how it will be expected to be implemented in local legislation, just look at Chapter 17 of the AUSFTA and, of course, our Copyright Act.
The world is currently racked by the Global Financial Crisis primarily because the banking sector allowed theory and ideology to obscure common sense. The ACTA suffers from the same problem of ideology displacing reality.
How you can remove the monetary incentive of an infringer who has “no direct or indirect motivation of financial gain” is something of a mystery. It simply demonstrates how ideology rather than common sense is the motivating factor here.
During the negotiations in late 2006(?) on Australia’s final implementation of the AUSFTA the question of region locking was canvassed during the [senate(?)] hearings. The argument was that if region locking was prohibited, then Australians would be restricted from playing DVDs they had purchased overseas. The response from “the industry” was that if Australians wanted to do this they could buy a separate DVD player for each region code. As these negotiations have shifted into the realm of ideology any application of common sense appears quite inappropriate.
Indeed, it is a a safe bet that the ACTA will criminalise the making of the copies even if you destroy them immediately afterwards – something that anyone providing any sort of proxying service would be well advised to keep in mind. There is an ideology at stake here don’t you know.
(ii) wilful infringements for the purposes of commercial advantage or financial gain.

This season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians is guaranteed to be the most dramatic ever — as Khloé Kardashian is reportedly prepared to address Tristan Thompson's cheating on the reality series. Khloé has yet to publicly discuss the scandal, but that will change once the famous family's show comes back.
"They always discuss real life things on the show. They’ve never ignored a topic," a source told Us Weekly. "It will definitely be brought up, but they don’t know how much. They can film hours about it, but in the end, Khloé is one of the executive producers and will have final say on what actually makes air." As expected, the NBA star is not thrilled about the news.
"He doesn’t understand why it has to be addressed, but Khloé has said if it’s not dealt with on the show, questions will continue to linger," a second insider shared with the publication. "No one has heard from Khloé directly about what she felt or what she has gone through, and she pointed out to Tristan that she won’t do anything to hurt him by briefly discussing the cheating. She has moved on from it."
Khloé welcomed her baby girl True Thompson just days after Tristan's cheating with Instagram model Lani Blair went public — and a brand and reputation expert explained to Life & Style exclusively how addressing the unfortunate incident on screen might benefit the new mom. "I think Khloé benefits now from being a sympathetic character, and will have people connect with her that perhaps didn't connect before," Eric Schiffer explained. "[They'll] see her as someone who deserves empathy, understanding, and the right man. I think her intentions were to have a good man. She's now suffered with multiple partners who have become major, shameful disappoints — either hitting rock bottom or a rock bottom of morality, making boneheaded choices, and ultimately backstabbing themselves."
So, when is KUWTK coming back?
As of right now, no premiere date has been revealed for the upcoming season. However, Season 14 premiered in October — just six months after the previous season ended. This means Season 15 can begin airing as soon as August or September of this year. And along with Tristan's cheating, fans can expect to see more behind-the-scenes moments from Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner also welcoming their baby girls. At the end of the day, you know Kris Jenner is loving the drama.

Where reading changes the world.
Peter couldn’t believe he had raised such a daughter! He felt guilty that he had not spent the time he should have with her growing up, but he was trying to start a business! Now he wishes she was not his daughter.
However, when his wish begins to come true he is confused at the turn of events. Everyone around him acknowledges his daughter has changed & even applauds her. But he knows his daughter, something isn’t right.
Mary Ellen finds herself on earth with a special task. She is confused why she has been asked to accomplish the impossible. How can this be done? Soon, she begins to wish that she could stay on earth and tries to change things so that she can. After all, she was a good person so she deserves it!
Mayor Bob looked around himself at his small town of Daffodil Hill and took a deep breath of pride. Because he grew up here, he knew the folks and the town in-and-out. He loved the little community that he helped build and really enjoyed helping them solve their problems. That is why the mystery of who was stealing them out of everyone’s gardens was such a puzzling one. He wasn’t prepared for the discovery of who it was stealing the precious tomatoes…or what was….

If you’ve ever had to take antibiotics, the chances are you’ve experienced the down-side as well as the benefits. Diarrhoea is a well-recognised problem of antibiotic treatment, and is thought to arise because of an upset in the bacteria that normally live in our intestine – the gut microbiota.
In the search for a solution to antibiotic-associated diarrhoea (AAD), research is focusing on clarifying the role of probiotics in helping to restore the natural balance in the gut microbiota and so prevent the unwelcome effect. Probiotics are ‘friendly’ microbes – live microorganisms which, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host.
Yogurt naturally contains two strains of microbes that are used in the fermentation of milk to yogurt (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus). But yogurt also makes a perfect vehicle for adding further potentially helpful microbes, or probiotics.
Some probiotic strains may help to prevent AAD in adults and children, but few studies have looked specifically at the potential benefits in hospitalised patients. People who are in hospital are particularly susceptible to AAD because they may be debilitated by more than one illness.
The authors of this study recruited 314 people, mostly elderly, who were prescribed antibiotics (amoxicillin-clavulanate or levofloxacin) in a Spanish hospital. The study looked at the effects on the occurrence of AAD of standard yogurt compared with yogurt supplemented with additional probiotics.
The participants were randomly assigned to receive a cup of yogurt drink supplemented with three strains of probiotic, or standard yogurt that did not contain the additional strains. A third group didn’t receive any yogurt and so formed a control.
Each participant started the ‘treatment’ within 48 hours of beginning the course of antibiotic and continued until 5 days after stopping the antibiotic. The participants were followed up for a month to see if they suffered any episodes of diarrhoea.
Results suggested that neither the probiotic yogurt nor standard yogurt appeared to prevent AAD.
During the one-month follow-up, 23% of participants in the probiotic-supplemented yogurt group suffered diarrhoea compared with 17.6% in the standard yogurt group – a difference that was not statistically significant. The severity of diarrhoea was also similar in the two groups. And there wasn’t much difference between rates of diarrhoea in the yogurt groups and the control group.
‘…our study does not support a role of the combined probiotic strains L. acidophilus LA-5, B. lactis BB-12 and L. casei LC-01 in the prevention of AAD in hospitalized (mostly elder) patients.’ – Velasco et al, 2018.
The strains of supplemented probiotic used in this study were Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-5, Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BB-12 and Lactobacillus casei subsp. casei LC-01).
These probiotic strains were found to be sensitive to the antibiotics taken by the participants in this study, and this might have contributed to the apparent lack of benefit. It is possible that not enough of the probiotic survived in the gut to have an effect on AAD, say the authors.
Previous studies have suggested that other probiotic strains do have positive effects when it comes to AAD prevention. It would be well worth conducting more studies of specific probiotic strains in AAD prevention in different clinical settings, say the authors.
Evidence also suggests that probiotics may be less effective at preventing AAD in the elderly. More studies on probiotics and AAD are needed in older hospitalised patients before any firm conclusions can be drawn, say the authors.
‘Up to now, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Saccharomyces boulardii are the only species that have demonstrated a protective effect on AAD in children and adult patients.’ – Velasco et al, 2018.

Mr. Rohini Kanta Ray was born at a place on the border of Orissa/Bengal, in 1936. After his schooling and Intermediate in Balasore, he left for Calcutta in 1953 for graduation. While studying at the University College of Law, he joined Hindustan Lever, then the largest multinational in India, in 1958. Mr. Ray rose up the ranks and resigned as Area Manager in 1983 to join as Regional Sales Manager with Oswals of Ludhiana and CEO of Stainco, Delhi. He had toured extensively in the States of Orissa, West Bengal, Bihar, U.P., Punjab, Haryana and Gujarat as a professional for 27 years, from 1958 to 1985.
Mr. Ray decided to be an entrepreneur in 1986 to establish Shubho Swagatam Pvt. Ltd. and to construct a hotel, Shubham, at Chandipur, a unique sea-beach. An erstwhile colleague late N, Das Gupta and some of Mr. Ray's brothers/sisters, in-law and last but not the least his wife, extended moral & financial support for construction of the hotel in 1987. Hotel Shubham was opened for guests in 1989 with term loan received from O.S.F.C. between 1988 & 1990.
Mr. Ray thankingly acknowledges the role of Mr. Arun Dey, then MLA, for the initial encouragement to get the loan sanctioned & to initiate the Project . Contribution of friends and relatives cannot be overstated. Bhujoy Giri, the very affable & co-operative brother-in-law, took all the burden for formation of the company along with making a foolproof Project Report. Energetic and resourceful , brother Rabi Ray selected the best site available then and helped during the initial stages of construction. Engineer Mr. Purna Chandra Mohapatra of Tulsipur , Cuttack, gave us all support & his energy , at an elderly age to see the 3 storied structure constructed within our limited resources. I can not forget in a hurry, the contribution & encouragement given by Sekhar Sarkar for his Mejda at least for the first 3 years of construction. The project could not have been feasible without all those mentioned above & certainly some others whose memory may have faded with my old age.
Mr. Ray, the promoter, continues to be the General Manager, Managing Director & Chairman of the Company with a total experience of 51 years till now. Mrs. Das Gupta, a gracious lady with outgoing personality, is the other promoter Director, based at Calculta. Prof. Lata Ray, young, active, helpful lady and eminently suitable to be a Director, is presently stationed at Cuttack. Sister Kabita Basu of Chicago is the largest stakeholder in the company.
Rohini, as he is better known to his colleagues, friends and well-wishers, is associated with some organizations and institutions : President, Chandipur and Balasore Hotel Associations; Chandipur Beach Development Committee; Chandipur Beach Festival Committee. He has represented Chandipur in various foras and interacts with Government & Tourist officials at times. Mr. Ray is extremely keen for development and promotion of Chandipur as a unique beach different from other coastal areas. He is also a member of Hotel & Restaurant Association of Orissa, Member Balasore Chamber of Industries & Commerce.
His wife, Kuntala, has been Rohinl's greatest asset since their marriage in 1961. She had planned for room arrangement and garden planning since the inception of Shubham. She always, unhesitatingly extended her hands & purse during difficult times of stress & strain for the Company. Her first Lady’s Beauty Parlor in Balasore ‘MADHUBAN’ was of great help to the family. Rays' have two sons : Krishnendu, a Professor at New York University and Sumit, the younger one, a Senior Consultant with Sir Gangaram Hospitals, New Delhi as HOD & Vice-Chairman. Both the sons never discouraged their father in his adventure into Business without sufficient funds from their student days & in spite of financial hardship & discomfort. Whatever they have achieved are through sheer diligence, dedication & discipline.
Rohini is fortunate to have many friends, who all have encouraged him with unsolicited help many times in different ways, Rohini gratefully acknowledge their sincere effort to make the project / Hotel viable and successful. The names are exhaustive, though some names crop us instantly, like Roma/L.M. Mukherjee, Shelly/S.N. Mukherjee, Mrs. & Mr. Dilip Guha, Late Kamalesh & Mrs. Purnima Chatterjee, Namita/Samir Bose, Babu Sengupta, Mrs. & Mr. Amal Sinha, Mrs. & Mr. Mukul Dutta and the list goes on & on , including Brothers, Sisters, brother/Sister-in-law.

Body and Soul healing at the Welwyn and Hatfield Practice means taking a genuinely holistic approach to health. Perhaps your seeking treatment for discomfort or choosing to live a more balanced lifestyle. Please take a little time to read through if you have any questions please call us on 01707 888229.
You can choose to find happiness in small, everyday things. You can choose to interpret what happens in a positive way. Or in a negative way.
And your choices controls much of how much happiness your will find and create in your life.
This is certainly one of the most popular ideas I’ve found about happiness. And it might sound cliched and empty. But it works very well.
When you make someone else happy – by, for example, helping them with something – you can sense, see, feel and hear it. And that happy feeling flows back to you. And then, if you’d like, you can boost you own ego by thinking something like: ”Wow, I really made him/her happy!”.
If you want less instead of more, more, more then your desires are more likely to be fulfilled.
And if you throw away a few of those desires that you may not really want or need that much anyway you’ll probably start to feel less stressed and worried.
This is a calmer and better place to be to enjoy your day (tip #2) and to take the time discover the happiness that is already in your life (tip #3).
A pretty obvious one. But it’s still easy to trap yourself into doing what you don’t want to for many, many hours.
And seldom do what you really love to do. And I guess this one ties into tip #1. You may not be able to choose to do what you want to do right now.
Or for many hours each day or week. But you almost always have a choice to do more of what you really want to do.
There is always time. Or time you can free up. You have a choice.
One of the best ways to not find happiness is just to hold yourself back and do nothing. Seldom show up. Paralyze yourself through over analysis.
It’s not always easy to take action, it can be scary and hard and difficult.
But if you don’t take action you’ll be missing out on a lot. Including many moments, people and experiences that can bring you a lot of happiness.
Promoting your blog to get instant traffic is actually easy. Posting good topics on do follow forum related to ur blog also helps to.

A few weeks ago I was sitting in my office in Toronto when there was a fire alarm. Shortly after the alarm began there was an announcement saying that they were investigating the alarm however, we were to stay in our offices until they had more time to find out the issue. I decided to leave my office anyway. I needed some fresh air, and I was being slightly cautious.
Of the many things that have been researched since the fall of the twin towers, is the response by authorities and occupants in this extreme situation. There was a 298 page document called, Occupant Behavior, Egress, and Emergency Communications. This report confirmed a number of key factors regarding the people who survived and those who perished.
While the buildings were burning, those calling 911 were advised to stay on their floors until authorities arrived. However, approximately 2500 people survived by ignoring this advice and leaving anyway. This “disobedience” had in some cases been due to panic, but in others was the result of real time information through social media, phone calls and internal networks. The sharing of information made for better. The researcher’s called this “reasoned flight” decisions based on true information, in which case “following the rules” will lead to death.
You can listen to a podcast with George Butterfield, Lawyer, Rhodes Scholar founder of Canada’s leading walking & biking touring company. He shares how he “broke the rules” & found the right career path.
Where am I going with this? In your career search, there may be many cases where you should ignore the traditional rules and use your networks, internal advisors and the help of others to make important decisions even though at times this may seems counterintuitive. For example, the career posting that says, “No phone calls please” when should you follow this, and when should you not? Well, that depends, there are many variables in the career search and that is why the educated advice of others can so important. The key is to be both lateral and logical, in your decision-making. It may “save” your career.

To meet the changing demands of the market, we designed a series of bowls that can be effortlessly combined with our other Costa Verde ranges. What we eat and how we eat it is changing, through the influence of Asian and Southern European cuisines, bowls are now as important as plates. The ‘stage plate’ turns the serving of an appetiser or a dessert into pure theatre. We continually keep up to date with the latest food trends and work hard to keep our ranges fresh.
As well as working with Costa Verde on various tableware ranges, we have helped them form their brand identity. We have designed a Michelin star inspired exhibition stand for them and have assisted with graphics, photography, website and brochure design.

Is controversial apparel really good for business?
Urban Outfitters has found itself at the nexus of a social media storm after a bloodstained sweatshirt appeared for sale on its website. The sweatshirt appeared to be from Kent State University, which is famous for a student massacre in 1970.
Other retailers have made similar gaffes. Just a couple weeks ago, Zara was condemned by consumers for releasing a pair of pajamas that looked like concentration camp uniforms. The list of other off-color apparel sold over the years by Urban Outfitters and other retailers includes the infamous “Eat Less” t-shirt, the “Depression” t-shirt, and apparel featuring apparently racist images.
Is such repeated controversy good for business, especially among millennial consumers, the target demographic for these stores?
Brian Sozzi, a chief equities strategist at Belus Capital Advisors, said that selling such unsavory products may have helped businesses in the past, but not anymore.
“The first impression is that it’s good and that it drives free publicity, but that’s increasingly coming to not be the case,” said Sozzi. That’s due to the popularity of social media, including Twitter and Facebook — platforms on which consumers can “constantly grade” brands and offer their opinions instantly.
“This type of marketing and apparel is not positively impacting sales, it’s hurting sales,” he added. Sozzi pointed out that this comes on the heels of some tough quarters for Urban Outfitters, too. In fact, sales have declined for four consecutive quarters even with founder Richard Hayne returning as CEO at the start of 2012.
Robin Lewis, author of the recently published book The New Rules of Retail, said that the controversial products sold by these retailers are “outrageous.” He added: “If they can’t think of any other kind of PR ploy than this kind of sensationalism, they probably have to fire their marketing officer.” Lewis continued that putting the sweatshirt for sale probably didn’t get through to top management until it was too late, as it wouldn’t have been approved otherwise.
“I was quite shocked,” said Lewis.
Lewis adds that he doesn’t believe such repeated controversy helps when hawking a product. “I think it’s a huge marketing misstep,” he said.
Lewis said that Urban Outfitters selling the sweatshirt panders to younger generations’ insensitivity to violence.
But while Scozzi and Lewis decried Urban’s misstep this week and in the past, Edward Hertzman, a millennial and the publisher of Sourcing Journal, a publication that focuses on the retail apparel and textile industry, had another thought. At first, he believed selling the product was simply a “disaster,” but then realized it may have been a “very bad coincidence.” The person “responsible for sourcing the sweatshirt” could have “had no idea what [he or she] was buying,” said Hertzman. Buyers are typically in their 20s or early 30s, meaning the person may simply have been unaware of Kent State’s history. As a result, the item could’ve been added to the online catalogue (there was just one available) without a second’s thought.
And with social media’s help, the controversy blew up before management had the chance to temper the flare, Hertzman added.
“Even if [brands] don’t intentionally put themselves out there, every consumer has become a brand ambassador,” he said. Of course, repeated offenses are no good for a brand either. “Everyone needs to think before they act,” he added.

My wife and I would like to sail through the Panama Canal (either direction) and would appreciate any advice on which line might provide the best service. We would like a first class experience. Thanks.
No doubt about it - Crystal Cruises. I've been through the canal many times, on QE2, Crystal Harmony and Royal Princess. For an upscale, sophisticated cruise (no glitz, PA announcements, pool Olympics, etc.) Crystal would be a good choice. And, they're discounting their winter '00 and spring '01 Panama Canal cruises.
Guess I had my head in the sand; didn't know Crystal serviced that itinerary. Crystal will certainally provide sufficient "style" for us, I'm sure.
Here's another vote for Radisson Mariner. As nice as Crystal is, I think Radisson is a better value and just fabulous all the way around. Either way, you can't go wrong.

So I know that attachments be added to post and I know there is a rule about posting files that are the legal property of others. So just to verify, does that mean like the original files I extract from a game? What about files I converted to a different format and what if I want to provide a sample file for analysis?
Sorry for the noob question. I'm new here (Obviously) and I don't go on forums much, but this place seems really informative and a good place to ask help.
Just post away. The only thing we ask is make sure you don't deal in cracks, warez or pr0n.

Teva Pharmaceuticals reported a giant $11.6 billion loss for the 2017 fourth quarter on Thursday and said the outlook for 2018 looked poor as prices in its key U.S. generic-drug market continue to decline.
The loss cut short a rally in Teva shares that had begun in early November when Kare Schultz took over as CEO, raising hopes for the financially troubled drugmaker. On Thursday, Teva stock closed down 6.9% at 67 shekels ($19.05) on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, but it was off more than 9.5% at $18.85 late morning local time in New York.
Schultz told analysts he didn’t expect the company’s fortunes to begin turning before 2019 as Copaxone sales bottom out and before the company benefits from new specialty products. “For sure in 2020 we will see growth,” he told Reuters.
The huge loss, which came to $11.40 a share, was due to an $11 billion charge against Teva’s U.S. generics business, bringing the total write-down for all of 2017 to $17.1 billion.
Excluding one-time items like the charge, the company earned 93 cents a share – which was down from $1.38 a year earlier but ahead of the 76 cents forecast by analysts polled, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. Revenue fell 16% in the fourth quarter to $5.5 billion, ahead of analysts’ forecasts for $5.3 billion.
However, that relatively positive bit of news was more than outweighed by Teva’s outlook for 2018. It forecast revenue of between $18.3 billion and $18.8 billion, which it said would generate earnings per share of between $2.25 and $2.50. Analysts had been expecting EPS of $2.94 on revenue of $19.3 billion.
“With estimates for branded revenue recovery likely coming down, the argument for mid-term (2 to 4 years) recovery got tougher,” wrote Bernstein analyst Aaron Gal in a note to investors.
Schultz blamed the reduced outlook for this year on expectations that a second generic version of Copaxone will hit the market in April and that U.S. generics sales will fall another 20%.
Like other major generic drugmakers, Teva is contending with eroding prices, increased competition and a consolidation of the big drug-purchasing groups that give them more pricing power versus manufacturers.
Teva’s woes in the generic sector have been compounded by the onset of generic competition for its best-selling Copaxone multiple sclerosis drug – a proprietary drug that had long been an engine for the company’s profits.
In addition, to maintain its status as the world’s biggest generics maker, Teva made an ill-timed acquisition of Allergan’s generic drug business for $40.5 billion in 2017, a move that saddled it with massive debt just as its businesses were suffering a downturn.
Generic-drug sales fell 16.3% to $3.1 billion in the fourth quarter, from $3.7 billion a year earlier, Teva said, led by a 15% drop in U.S. sales. Sales of Copaxone fell 19% to $821 million.
Schultz has focused for now on getting Teva’s financial house in order through a restructuring plan that will combine its generic and specialty medicine businesses, cut more than a quarter of its global workforce and close many factories, and suspend dividend payments.
The plan, which generated a political and media storm in Israel in December when it was unveiled, aims to reduce costs by $3 billion by the end of 2019 from about $16.1 billion in 2017.
Three weeks ago, however, Moody’s Investors Service cut Teva debt rating to junk, and this week Standard & Poor’s said the outlook for its Teva rating was negative.
In fact, Schultz has made some progress already. Teva reported that it reduced its debt by $2.2 billion to $32.2 billion in the quarter even as its cash flow shrunk 17% to $1.2 billion. Last week, it announced two steps that would generate another $1.4 billion in cash to repay debt – half from the sale of a division and half from a legal settlement with Allergan.
“We are making strong progress on the restructuring plan, and I am optimistic about the progress made and remain confident in our ability to deliver on our targets in the coming year,” Schultz said on Thursday.
