The Gleaner Company is among the six companies that have signed on to the Wisynco Eco-led Recycle Challenge to collect a minimum of 100,000 plastic bottles over seven weeks.
– Radio station ZIP FM.
“Our six corporate challengers are looking forward to not only bringing in bottles, but also to increasing overall awareness for the need to recycle,” said Shelly-Ann Dunkley, environment communication officer with Wisynco.
“Through our partnership with these six companies, we hope to spark a conversation and a call to action around proper recycling in the hopes of influencing our nation. May 28th marks the start of Jamaica’s ‘Recycle Revolution’,” she added.
The challenge comes amid growing global concern over plastic consumption, from microplastics, present in many personal care and cosmetic products, to polyethylene terephthalates, such as water bottles, and high-density polyethylene, including detergent and motor oil bottles that are the focus of the local corporate challenge.
Much of those plastics make their way to the ocean, causing pollution and presenting problems for marine ecosystems, and Jamaica and the Caribbean’s bottom line.
Coral reef species, crucial for healthy fish populations and the coastal environment and which provide US$375 million in goods and services annually, for example, have diminished in the Caribbean by some 90 per cent, according to statistics from UN Environment/Caribbean Environment Programme. Pollution has been a contributing factor.
Meanwhile, over two years, Wisynco ECO’s efforts at recycling, through its schools’ programme alone, have seen the collection of more than three million plastic bottles. At the same time, the efforts of entities, such as the Jamaica Environment Trust, which coordinates International Coastal Clean-Up annually, has yielded tonnes of plastic trash from across Jamaica’s shores.
Recycling is one effective response to that.
“Everybody needs to know what is happening, where they can recycle, and we want to make it easier for them,” Dunkley told The Gleaner last week.
Companies participating in the challenge have been provided with cages for the collection of the plastics.
“The cages are placed at their facilities and everybody is able to drop off their bags. Recycling Partners of Jamaica will do the collection,” Dunkley said.
Good day, I live in complex in Kingston 6 and the home owners have agreed to seperate their garbage and place plastics in seperate bags. Is it possible for us to get one of your special bins ?
And are there further requirments for seperation, i.e ..only drink bottles or does it include all plastic .. boxes, shampoo or oil bottles and are they be be clean?
Please send us an email at wisyncoeco@wisynco.com and you will be contacted in short order re: the recycle bins for your complex.
In regards to separation, PET #1 and HPDE #2 bottles are accepted for recycling. You can find these codes/numbers at the bottom of your plastics.
Hi I would like my community based charitable organization to participate in your recycle project.
100,000 bottles would be a breeze for us to collect.
Please help us to get started ASAP.
You can send us an email at wisyncoeco@wisynco.com or participate in our public recycle challenge for a chance to be assisted in a clean-up. Visit http://wisynco.com/join-the-recycle-revolution for more details.

Norsk Tipping has selected EveryMatrix to provide the iGaming integration platform for games from casino vendors including IGT, NetEnt, Quickspin, Novomatic, Magnet Gaming and Scientific Games.
The Norwegian state lottery has selected EveryMatrix’s CasinoEngine following a competitive tender process with 10 other suppliers, which was kicked-started by the Norwegian government in April 2016.
The deal, which will run for six years with the option for a further two years, also sees EveryMatrix assume responsibility for operational services and content provider support.
Stian Hornsletten, EveryMatrix Executive Chairman, said: “Norsk Tipping will bring one of the best and most competitive product offerings to the Norwegian players.
Norsk Tipping reported H1 2016 revenues of NOK249m (£23m) with a year on year growth of 25%, which should bring the total 2016 revenues to well above NOK500m (£46m). The company said that it expects annual revenue to be between NOK400m and NOK620m, split on a shared revenue basis between the operator, content providers, EveryMatrix, and Norsk Tipping’s primary platform provider.
Hornsletten continued: “Being a Norwegian, this is a big milestone and achievement for me personally, but also for our company due to size and the competition for this tender.

Loreto Plaza, with its peachy-hued Spanish tower, has some great treats! Via Maestra 42 is my favorite. It's an authentic Italian Restaurant. They fly their gelato in from Italy. That's why it's sooooo good! I love the passionfruit, mango, hazelnut, and chocolate flavors, but there are many more to choose from. You can also have fresh sandwiches or pasta here (the Ravioli Spinaci is incredible). Eat outside at the tables or take your gelato to go. You can walk around the corner, past Chaucer's books, and sit by the Spanish fountain. From there you have a beautiful view of the Santa Ynez mountains and the tall palms.
After you've enjoyed your gelato, head over to Chaucer's books, a small independent bookstore. You will find some great books about old Santa Barbara in there and other books you don't get from the big publishers. Their kids section is tucked away from the main store and though small, it has some good books and toys. This happens to be the only bookstore in Santa Barbara right now.
Another European treat in Loreto Plaza is a pain au chocolat (chocolate croissant) at Renaud's Patisserie. Sit outside at their tables by the fountain and enjoy the lovely atmosphere. On a rainy day, I like to sit by the window and look out at the fountain.
If you need a place for your kids to let off steam, cross Las Positas St and check out MacKenzie Park: a playground for kids, a field for Fido and a parking lot for skateboarding teenagers! Everyone can be happy at the same time!
For a nice hiking park and toddler playground nearby, head over to Steven's Park, a neighborhood park tucked into a canyon. From here you can take a nice trail that connects after a mile with the Jesusita Trail.
Pretend you're in Europe at Via Maestro 42.
Pain au chocolat and tea, outside at Renaud's.

From Highway 101, take the Las Positas Rd exit. Head towards the mountains. You will pass the Santa Barbara Golf Course on your left and some beautiful views of the mountains. Turn left into Loreto Plaza, before you get to State St. Park in the large parking lot. Via Maestra is around the corner (west) from the main stores.
Via Maestra 42, 3343 State St, Santa Barbara CA 93105, call (805) 569-6522.

Want to maximize your results as a Gold Affiliate?
Gold Affiliate Programs are seeing a growing number of financial bloggers and website owners earn hundreds or even thousands of dollars in additional monthly income promoting gold dealers and gold investment programs.
For some of the most successful webmasters where five and six figure dollar amounts have become a regular monthly paycheck – gold bullion affiliate programs have literally changed lives.
The why, the what and the how.
This guide looks at an alternate way to profit from gold, without buying a single ounce of the yellow metal.
It examines the need for gold affiliate programs, explains what gold affiliate programs are, looks under the bonnet at how gold affiliate programs work, details the different types of gold affiliate programs available, lists 31 different programs currently open… and finally looks at free gold affiliate training available.
Gold Affiliates: Why, What and How?
There’s a new way to make money from precious metals. It doesn’t involve buying and selling, there are no rare coins involved and you don’t need to trade the markets or sort through small change looking for silver dollars.
I’m talking about Gold Affiliate Programs – where third parties are paid by gold companies to promote their services for a cash reward.
Why The Need For Gold Affiliate Programs?
There is a common misconception that gold dealers make a fortune, perhaps due to bullion being what most would consider a “big-ticket” item. However the sad truth is that in a highly competitive market the dealer’s markup (or premium) on a product like a 1oz silver coin is smaller than you’d pay on a burger, or your daily caffeine fix.
In short, dealers can see massive turnover for a small profit.
The precious metals marketplace is now one of the most competitive verticals on the web, where thousands of coin and bullion dealers are fighting for an ever more web-savvy customer.
This competition pushes up advertising costs where dealers bid to have their website appear in search results. This means metals retailers can easily be spending over $30 for a single “click” on a search engine results page. That’s $30 to have one visitor come to their website – whether that visitor buys, stays for a minute, or clicks away within seconds.
After the click – the money is gone. The dealer isn’t buying an outcome, just a click… and the clicks soon mount up.
If the dealer in question hasn’t made their website compelling enough, or easy to use, or pretty, or the user just decides that for whatever reason they’ve got better things to do, it won’t take long until these click costs mount and the dealer struggles to stay profitable.
The smartest gold dealers decided to make a change, to remove this front-loaded expense from their side of the business.
They looked to the most competitive areas of the web – online dating, adult entertainment and “get rich quick opportunities” and seeing what these aggressively competitive industries were doing to stay profitable – copied them.
What IS a Gold Affiliate Program?
Essentially a gold affiliate acts as a commission agent for a dealer. The affiliate sends visitors to a dealer’s website and if these visitors buy something the dealer pays the affiliate a fixed fee or a percentage.
The dealer no longer has to pay up front for clicks who may or may not do anything.
Instead the whole problem of getting visitors to their gold site becomes someone else’s concern.
And it’s in that same someone else’s best interest to send the right visitor, already pre-sold on the idea of buying from the dealer. If that someone else is good at their job, by the time the visitor arrives on the gold dealer’s website they’re simply looking for the buy button.
The gold dealer doesn’t pay to advertise and doesn’t buy clicks based on hope. Instead – he or she should be receiving a constant flow of hungry, targeted, eager gold fans already pre-disposed to part with their cash.
Once the gold has been bought and the money is deposited safely in the company account, then and only then does the dealer pay the affiliate their $30 or their 1%, or whatever the rate agreed in the gold affiliate program.
The dealer gets new business in volume, paying the affiliate a small fee off the back end. The better the affiliates, the more business the dealer receives – and all with no front-loaded risk or expense. As far as the dealer is concerned it truly is a win-win situation.
How do Gold Affiliate Programs Work?
Bullion dealers have a choice – they can manage the affiliate program themselves in-house, or they can outsource to a specialist affiliate management team or an affiliate network.
However a willing gold dealer looking to run their own program needs to know that managing any type of affiliate program can be an incredibly complex task.
All parts of every transaction – from the first click on an affiliate’s link through a history of repeat visits to the dealer’s website and eventual purchase of precious metals need detailed tracking and analysis to ensure gold affiliates are properly compensated for their efforts.
Seasoned affiliates expect this, and any gold dealer taking a DIY approach can be sure that even if they are not tracking transactions correctly, a professional affiliate certainly will be double checking everything. If they suspect they’re not being credited they’ll leave – and the gold affiliate universe is a small one. Word gets round fast.
Software solutions are available to assist dealers run their own programs with “plugins” capable of being added to most popular e-commerce solutions. These packages go some way towards managing the technical side of tracking sales, and helping automate commission payments – but any gold dealer considering the DIY approach has to ask if this is the best use of their time.
This is why almost all gold dealers running bullion affiliate programs use established affiliate networks.
These are either generalist affiliate networks such as Commission Junction (CJ), Share A Sale or Affiliate Window, or increasingly a specialist gold affiliate network like ClickAgain.
These networks carry out all aspects of managing the program – approval of affiliates, creating links, tracking transactions and payment of commissions – for a fee. This fee, plus the fee being paid to the affiliate needs to be worked into the dealer’s mark-up – all while keeping the end cost competitive with the market.
To achieve this most dealers will take a smaller profit, aiming for profit through volume rather than individual mark-up.
Well managed programs will provide gold affiliates with a number of resources, from tested banner adverts and text ads, to site copy, email templates, regular news feeds and even affiliate forums – others simply provide a tracking link.
No matter what is provided many of the most successful affiliates tend to create their own unique take on marketing and will run, test, rerun and retest their own promotional material and landing pages to get an optimal performance from their efforts.
Financial success for the dealer will depend on creating financial success for their affiliates – as without a profitable result a professional affiliate will simply move on to promote something else.
As the gold affiliate marketplace matured and evolved, dealer’s compensation plans have had to change in order to keep up with affiliate expectations.
For several years the fixed-fee offer was king. Even in 2016 the most commonly advertised gold affiliate program still offered revolves around a fixed fee of between $10-$50, however this is changing. Increased competition in advertising costs and higher SEO expenses are seeing professional gold affiliates move away from fixed-fee offers.
Why? For a gold dealer to offer a maximum of say $25 on an action, be it a sale or a lead – they have to consider the affiliate’s own costs and work involved.
If the dealer couldn’t make regular Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising work at $30 a click, how does the dealer expect the affiliate to send paid traffic to the offer where even at 100% conversion and 100% uptake, the affiliate could be $5 down on each deal.
Affiliates using PPC traffic will need to bid on many more less-frequently searched cheaper “keywords” to make money through arbitrage (ensuring the difference between ad costs and return gives a profit). Even then they’d need an extremely high uptake of the offer to come out ahead.
High ad costs on gold affiliate favorites Google and Facebook mean there are now few affiliates in the gold vertical who will send paid gold-keyword traffic to a $25-max offer.
The same applies to affiliates getting their traffic from SEO (Search Engine Optimization). They will be competing directly with multi-billion dollar bullion-dealing giants, with deep pockets and eyes set firmly on Google’s first page – which for anyone who knows anything about SEO is a big ask for a relatively low volume low-payout offer.
The real money for gold affiliates lies in percentage programs, where gold dealers are offering either a small percentage of gross investment (1.5% seems average, although some offer 3% – see later) or a large percentage of their markup (typically 25%).
1.5% may not seem like much, but if an average customer adds $30,000 of gold to their retirement account, that’s a $450 commission.
Similarly if a company offering 25% of markup makes 6% on a $30,000 investment, the affiliate gets $450.
Stacked up against a $25 payout, it’s clear to see that $450 leaves a lot more room for creative marketing, with enough left over for a healthy profit.
Professional gold affiliates take percentage programs and build a system around it, where they will create either advertising campaigns, a website specific to the offer, or a combination of the two. They then tweak the adverts and their side of the offer until they are making substantially more than their advertising or SEO costs – and then they scale.
With a percentage offer it’s relatively easy to make a full time wage from a simple website or blog – and in my research I came across 100s of people doing just that.
With a fixed-fee plus percentage combination offer, affiliates are able to use the fixed fee (typically $30-$100 paid out for a valid lead) to cover expenses such as advertising costs or site content creation and SEO, leaving the percentage element as clear profit.
If the affiliate generates a lead and they don’t go on to become a customer, the affiliate breaks even. If the lead goes on to buy precious metals, the affiliate gets rewarded in full.
The very best of these combination programs offers the gold affiliate the same percentage on an ongoing cumulative basis, meaning all future purchases over the lifetime of an introduced client’s relationship with a dealer are commission producing. For a wealthy client or a keen investor this could easily run to millions of dollars over several years.
On a 3% commission typical on the Click Again gold affiliate program, that one customer would generate $30,000 in affiliate commission. Even a regular customer putting on average $30,000 into a gold IRA would net the affiliate $900.
The ClickAgain network carries a running total of it’s gold affiliate earnings – currently standing at $7,255,751.53 in paid commissions for a single gold offer.
Proof if ever there was some that being a gold affiliate pays and pays well.
In writing this guide my team and I have tried to find all available gold affiliate programs, to help show the scale and breadth of the opportunity available to blog owners and webmasters seeking additional methods of site-monetization.
Not all programs are available to affiliates in all countries, so check each offer out before taking the time to sign up. It’s advisable not to join too many programs at any one time and instead to concentrate on two or three companies most aligned with your audience.
It should also be noted that some companies will not allow you to promote, or in some cases even mention certain competing companies – always read the terms of your affiliate agreement carefully.
IMPORTANT: Inclusion in this list does not constitute a recommendation of the company or it’s affiliate program.
An article on gold affiliate programs based entirely on theory is all well and good – but I wanted to put some of the programs into practice. Is it as easy as they imply, do they deliver on expectations and most importantly do they pay?
I looked at the above list and decided to concentrate on both ends of the spectrum, the highest payout and one of the lowest, each time going with merchants we’ve had previous experience with and know to be trustworthy.
We also decided to run with US-based companies because that’s where the bulk of our traffic comes from.
At the top end we opted for Regal Assets through ClickAgain as we’ve had previous contact with several executives at the company and a number of their affiliates when sponsoring sections of this website. At the lower end of the payout scale, we took a decision to run with Money Metals Exchange through Share A Sale – we’ve received lots of written content from their CEO and staff over the years and they’re a really good team to deal with.
With gold affiliate programs selected, it was a case of signing up and working out how we’d promote each company.
For Regal Assets we replaced our rotating banner at the top of the bullion.directory site for a single banner promoting their Gold IRA service and added a couple of side bar banners for good measure. For Money Metals Exchange we got in touch with President Stefan Gleason and he kindly gave us a special offer to promote – which we duly set to run on our “Offers” page.
For the duration of this experiment we decided to concentrate purely on the existing traffic we had to the site, and stayed clear of paid promotion through Google, Bing, Facebook etc.
We had mixed thoughts on which offer – if any – would convert into business.
Personally I wasn’t certain how well Regal Assets’ offer would tally with our visitors because at the time their business was solely providing Gold Retirement Accounts (they have since started selling gold and vaulting solutions worldwide) while Bullion.Directory is more of an old-school bullion and coin dealer listings site.
Running these two gold affiliate programs for one month generated some surprise results. Yes we earned money. But were we better off overall?
With our ads up and running, and tracking clicks it was immediately clear that we were getting clicks. However looking at the ClickAgain backend it was obvious many of those clicks weren’t amounting to anything – as I had suspected many of them were classed as “bad leads”.
People were either clicking the back key immediately, leaving incorrect contact details, or they were from outside of the USA. However aside from these bounces and bad leads it was quite exciting to see we also had some winners.
All was not lost. Four leads were classed as good, generating $30 payout each, adding $120 to our coffers.
Although two of these leads eventually listed as “not interested” after much back and forth communication from the Regal Assets team, two were soon upgraded and had a dollar amount added to the lead, each lead now having the magical words “$100,000” and “IRA Account” in the respective columns.
It was at this point I found myself logging in to ClickAgain several times a day and watching as the leads were updating, tracking each stage of the process until there in each column I read “Metals Delivered”.
Unfortunately, and to my genuine dismay – one of the two deals cancelled despite having been cleared as delivered, and in a matter of seconds I saw my commission drop by 50% – giving a final payout into our company PayPal account of $3,120. This payment went through without a hitch.
I’m a big Money Metals fan, being in touch with them weekly as part of my role in adding external content to this website and so they were always going to be a company we’d happily promote.
However with my business head on, I took the decision to give the promotion of their offer much less real estate than we had for Regal Assets – as a simple matter of economics (and some greed on my behalf) a 3% payout beats a fixed fee of $23.
In their favor however, Money Metals don’t have a minimum purchase amount as Regal do ($5,000 and below equals zero payout) meaning we’d be paid a straight $23 per new customer we sent their way.
With their offer relegated to a single page, as opposed to Regal’s blanket coverage – we didn’t expect to get too many leads, if any for Money Metals – however once again, I was really pleasantly surprised.
Looking at Share-a-Sale‘s backend we saw 48 clicks to the Money Metals offer page from our site and then in the purchases column there was a sale for $4,997.70!
Had that been a sale at Regal, we’d not have seen a penny. As it was, we saw a commission of $23.
Whilst we weren’t going to retire early on $23, it went some way towards that month’s Nespresso bill. And it really hadn’t cost us a dime, other than 5-10 minutes work adding their offer to our page.
This was a 30 day experiment. In all it took me 2 hrs to implement and would have taken less if I hadn’t decided to create my own banners.
Those two hours went on to net Bullion.Directory $3,143.
Whilst I’m in no way suggesting $1600/hr would be typical of a gold affiliate’s earnings, this could be considered a good return on investment.
Looking at the Regal Assets offer’s actual earnings per click of $14.79 from 211 clicks all we’d need to do is get more clicks and the program could look to be a major earner.
You see, these 211 clicks came from 512,649 impressions, giving a clickthrough rate of 0.04%.
In short 1 in 2500 views of the Regal banner generated a click. And that’s not very good. Not good in the least.
To put this into perspective, other offers we run (and which we stopped for this experiment) typically see a clickthrough rate of 1-3%. Or 1 in 30 versus 1 in 2500.
In the example above, daily results for one of our regular banner ads, this offer typically sees a clickthrough rate of 3%. The banner doesn’t run cross-site or for all geographic locations so it’s impressions per month are much lower than in our Regal Assets experiment. Looking at it’s earnings per click – that £100 EPC may only mean $1.25 per actual click versus Regal’s $14.79 – but the banner sees a much better clickthrough rate, resulting in better earnings per visitor overall.
Of those 63 clicks, 3 resulted in sales giving a conversion rate of 4.8% and a total earnings of $78. This gives an Earnings Per Thousand Page Views (EPM) of $37.35.
With Regal Assets, 211 clicks resulted in 1 sale – giving a conversion rate of 0.47% for a total earnings of $3120. Looked at in relation to overall page views due to the very poor clickthrough rate of 0.04% this gives us an EPM of only $6.08.
Even the low-paying offer from Money Metals Exchange saw an impressive 8% clickthrough (560 impressions and 48 clicks) and 2% conversion – resulting in a $41.07 EPM – the highest EPM of the lot!
As I’d suspected our typical visitor is NOT looking for a gold IRA and so to maximise our earnings per visitor we need to look at offers that resonate better – and this is shown clearly when looking at the higher EPMs of our more tested advertisers.
To be profitable in gold affiliate marketing you need to look at the overall numbers combining conversion rates, EPCs and EPMs rather than simply picking an offer with a huge payout – and these are maximized by promoting the right offers to your demographic.
In this example, looking at another one of our regular advertising spots running a much more generic precious metals affiliate offer we can see a banner clickthrough rate of 2.7% with 3.2% of these clicks resulting in a sale.
It was an interesting experiment and I found that just because a gold offer will typically pay $1-3k commission per sale, adding it to your website is not necessarily going to see you make bank. If it’s not the right offer, it’ll be beaten by a lower paying offer that resonates better with your visitors, or a lower paying offer that sees better conversion rates once on the vendor’s site.
By replacing a well targeted offer with a wrongly-targeted offer we saw our EPM drop $22.57 for 60k of our page views, and we saw similar drops for ALL the banners we switched out.
Yes we made $3000, but we LOST overall from the banners we replaced.
Therefore for us, this was the wrong offer to run site-wide as we’re simply not targeting the gold retirement market – or the majority of our readers already have gold IRAs and we’re preaching to the converted.
That’s not to say gold affiliate programs don’t work. Indeed the offers that we replaced for this experiment were themselves promotions run as part of gold affiliate programs – and they provide a good consistent income for the site.
We could have made much more money from the Regal offer. Indeed if we were to repeat the experiment now that Regal Assets are working worldwide and no longer specializing solely in Gold IRAs, we would see vastly different results.
Also, at the time of the experiment, had Bullion.Directory been a site better targeted at the precious metals retirement market I’m certain we’d have seen much better results for the Regal offer – and with the better clickthrough and conversion rates we’d see with more targeted traffic those large commissions would have soon mounted up.
As it stands we lost $5000 on the month by replacing successfully proven and targeted banners with a single banner targeting a different segment of the metals marketplace – a segment we’re not set up for.
3% of Gross Investment is a fantastic commission rate, but to truly maximise earnings you don’t just need a high converting offer with a good payout – your site needs to be very tightly niched. If not, you need an attractive more work-a-day offer that is generally appealing to mass traffic.
Generalist gold affiliate programs pay much less per sale and their sales tend to be for smaller amounts, but you tend to sell much more of them – and this is an important balance.
And so I’m going to be running a second part of this experiment. This time I’m running two identical retirement offers side by side on a new mini-site built entirely targeting the US retirement market.
This time I’ll be running niche ads on a niche site with niche traffic, so I expect clickthrough and conversion rates to be much improved. If I’m able to maintain a four figure EPC the extra time and money building a new niche site will be more than compensated.
Looking at our figures from this experiment I suspect we could soon be looking at EPMs substantially higher than our current best.

I had a friend in town this weekend from Florida. Ms. Prepper and I went into NYC last night to go to dinner. While in the cab downtown on the lower east side, as we were driving around the 20th street area, wasn’t I surprised to see an MRAP (https://www.leidos.com/sites/default/files/u14/mrap1.jpg) parked on the uptown side of the street, and a few feet up on the downtown side of the street, there were a few Humvees parked. Additionally, the police presence was through the roof. Not just police, but there were black SUVs EVERYWHERE with US Govt. plates. I could keep going on & on Vans full of cops and feds everywhere. I have not seen anything like this since 9/11. I will say, no tactical teams were out. I assume they were sitting in the vans & SUV’s awaiting deployment to wherever they might be needed.
It was a little surprising to see an MRAP and the Humvees. I am not sure if they were local, state, or federal as I didn’t see a plate because we went by so quickly. But I am going out on a limb and saying that there are more stashed on residential side streets all over the city.
I also read yesterday that while Deblasio is blowing his horn about retraining the police, they have over $1MM in overtime already because of the protests. Not sure if there is a by design correlation here. Additionally, Ms. Prepper heard from an NYPD friend of her’s yesterday that there is medium to high terror alert as domestic islamic militants are being encouraged to engage the NYPD (and assuming other cities PDs) during protests and attempt to kill them in public. So it is probably fair to say they are on very high alert. I cannot stress enough the police were ALL OVER THE CITY last evening. You could not go anywhere without seeing packs of them.
While it has been documented that the protests have been heavily coordinated by far left organizations, this is almost a perfect storm if it keeps up gong forward for islamic jihadists. I believe, especially if there is some accident that sparks more outrage. Not a good time to be on the job, if you ask me.

Viscount Mining Corp., is pleased to announce the identification of promising gold and silver exploration targets on its 100%-owned Cherry Creek project in northwestern White Pine County, Nevada.
Viscount's Cherry Creek property has a long history of gold, silver, lead, zinc and tungsten production from high-grade veins and replacement deposits. This included production from the Blue Bird, Fillmore, Last Chance, Exchequer/New Century Mine, Star, Ticup and Motherlode mines. In addition to the historic mines, recent exploration in the Flint Canyon area of the Cherry Creek property recognized stratigraphic, structural and geochemical characteristics that are similar to those at sediment-hosted gold mines in eastern Nevada, including Newmont's Long Canyon Mine and Pilot Gold's Kinsley Mountain Mine.
Viscount Director and senior geologist, Mark Abrams said, "Summit conducted a very solid program on which we can build. The geology of the Cherry Creek district remains very permissive for finding precious and base metal deposits and we intend to advance the project forward utilizing our knowledge of the district and surrounding areas, and our extensive database."
The Flint Canyon area was the focal point of the Summit 2016 exploration program. It is on the northwest side of the claim block, three kilometers west of the historic mining district. The Flint Canyon area had no historic production and displays very little evidence of modern exploration. Rock-chip and soil sampling identified widespread anomalous gold in jasperoid and silicified breccias, primarily along the contact between Marjum limestone and Dunderberg Shale, but also locally along the Notch Peak Limestone/Pogonip Formation contact. Elevated levels of gold in rock-chip samples were commonly on the order of 0.1-0.5 g/t, although were locally as high as 4 g/t Au. The stratigraphic section and geochemical signature encountered at Flint Canyon resembles those at the two currently operating mines in the region. Sediment-hosted gold mineralization at the Newmont Long Canyon Mine occurs near the Pogonip-Notch Peak contact. At the Pilot Gold Kinsley Mine, the primary zone of oxidized disseminated gold mineralization occurs along the contact between the Dunderberg Shale and Hamburg Formation (Marjum equivalent).
Geologic mapping and surface geochemical data from the Summit program identified several gold and silver exploration target areas in the Ticup-Doctor's Cut-Jacob's Cut area (Viscount news release, August 5, 2015). The Ticup Mine was the richest historic silver producer in the district. In 2015, Summit conducted a limited, 12-hole reverse-circulation exploration drilling program to test some of those targets. Drill holes encountered elevated silver concentrations in projected extensions of the Ticup ore zone, which is a steeply-dipping silicified breccia along the contact of the Swasey Limestone and Wheeler Shale. The silver intercepts were commonly between 6 and 12 meters thick and contained silver concentrations between 40 and 117 g/t, with a maximum silver grade of 506 g/t in a 3-meter interval. In addition to the Ticup targets, a drill hole that tested a down-dip extension of exposed silver-bearing siltstone at the Doctor's Cut intersected a 27-meter zone with an average grade of 52 g/t Ag. Similarly, a hole that tested a projected extension of silver mineralization exposed in the Jacob's Cut encountered a 30-meter interval of Swasey Limestone with an average concentration of 50 g/t Ag. The results of the 2015 drilling program were discussed in a Viscount news release from February 4, 2016. Surface geochemistry and subsurface geologic interpretations indicate that additional drilling in this area could extend the mineralized zones and possibly increase the grade of the silver encountered in the holes.
Viscount Mining is planning for an exploration drilling program to test the strongest of the gold and silver exploration targets delineated by the recent evaluation program, as outlined above. In addition, joint venture partners will be sought to assist in the future exploration of this extensive, highly-prospective property. Dr. Jamie Robinson, Viscount Senior Consulting Geologist, stated, "The comprehensive, high-quality data collected in the Summit exploration program will allow focused evaluation of gold and silver targets located on the large Cherry Creek claim block, which displays widespread mineral occurrences in a variety of geologic settings."
The scientific and technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed by Dallas W. Davis, P. Eng., FEC., an independent consulting geologist who is a "Qualified Person" as such term is defined under National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43- 101").

With the massive amount of data collected in the System Center Operations Manager from all servers and other monitored equipment, IT Operations departments are sitting on a gold mine of data just begging to be used. One of the areas that can benefit from such internal data capital is forecasting. By implementing forecasting processes you can predict the behavior of managed objects some months into the future. This knowledge enables you to act in advance in order to prevent service failures and service level breaches. Most business areas use some kind of forecasting methods when planning new investments, calculating yearly budgets etc. We believe that IT organizations should be no different and start using operational data to gain insights and learn from the past while planning their future.

My car keeps cming up with the engine management light .
I have had the coilpack replaced and all the plugs.
The codes that come up.
Is 10001 and 10401 which if i am right is misfire on cyl 1 and 4.
Any ideas. It's got a warranty so it's going back in to be looked at.
It seems to do it when its been running 10 min . And I go to 4000rpm.
What coil pack and plugs were used mate?
Genuine GM plugs and Bosch Coilpack?
Are those codes correct? 100 and 104 are maf codes iirc, missfire would be 301 and 304.
I was thinking maf too.
What filter is on the car?
Hi sorry for not getting back . Don't get notifications!!
But after going back to garage they replaced all plugs and Bosch coilpack.
And this morning still doing it!
Hello again..back with another problem .. w20adm lookin to pick your brains again.
My keyless entry start button playing up. And I get a padlock on the dash when pressing the button.
I have changed both batteries.
And have disconnected the battery as heard that resets the modules. But still nothing.
It sometimes decides to start. But it's either key or even both keys so it's not the keys that's the issue.
But then I'll try again 2 min later and nothing.
Could be a knackered peps door sensor yes mate.
But before you look at that what battery did you use? As daft as it sounds if you try a duracell battery it's a bit chunkier and sits in the hole a lot more snug. It totally cured the issue on mine when I had same thing, intermittent working of the key fob and padlock on dash.
