Social Media
Social media for dog trainers
To tweet or not to tweet? To like, or share? There's a lot more to social media than just Twitter and Facebook! Our webinars are designed to help you identify the best social media channels for your business and how to use them effectively.
In an age where it's nigh on impossible to escape or engage with social media, how can you avoid falling down the 'social media rabbit hole*' or signing up to every social media site you can think of? A 'one size fits all' approach doesn't work with social media – you need to be clear on how and why you want to use it and what tangible benefits can it bring.
Choosing the right social media channel
It's estimated that there are 60.27 million internet users in the UK alone, and that 42 million are active internet users (see: 2017 Digital Yearbook). On top of these huge numbers, there are probably 10 types of social media channels:
- Social networks (Examples: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn)
- Media sharing channels (Examples: YouTube, Instagram, Google+, Snapchat)
- Consumer review channels (Example: Yelp)
- Blogging channels (Example: WordPress, Tumblr)
- Bookmarking/content curation (Examples: Pinterest, Flipboard)
- Discussion forums (Examples: Quora, Digg, reddit)
- Social shopping (Example: Etsy)
- Interest based channels (Example: Goodreads, Last.fm, Houzz)
- Sharing/Gig economy channels: (DogBuddy, Airbnb, Uber, Fiverr, TaskRabbit)
- Anonymous social networks
So, how do you know which social media channel is right for your business? The answer is: "It depends." The biggest social networks – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn – may be suitable, but you may also find that media sharing sites, such as YouTube and Instagram, create good ways to connect with clients, along with other sites such as Google+.
Putting the 'social' into social media
The clue is in the title! Social media means you need to be 'social' and 'engaging'. This means that what you post, share, like needs to engage your clients and provide good reasons to remain engaged.
How I can help you
My social media webinars are designed to provide you with practical insights into social media channels and how to use them – in bite-size chunks.

Just OD Things: Something about OD
Welcome to the virtual space where OD speaks of her experiences in this big bad beautiful world. In this space, she raves about good food, shares her own recipes, discusses her fashion and lifestyle choices, and rants about many things around her – A LOT! And this blog is all about OD…
Everything she posts are her own experiences, her opinions, and the choices she makes in life, be it about the restaurant she chooses for a lunch date, the way she ties her hair, the food she thinks are healthy, or the things she finds unbearable.
It is also worth mentioning that even though the author is a cis woman, she tries to make this a space for everyone – and that means no matter where you belong in the gender spectrum, you are welcome.
Please remember that even though this page will have posts about beauty, fashion, health, fitness, etc., it does not promote any single standard of beauty. You are all free to choose your own lifestyle, whether or not in includes poking your eyes with mascara and walking around on painfully pointy things. There cannot be a particular definition of beauty. You're as beautiful as you think, no matter your shape, size, colour and clothes.
And here goes something more about OD…
OD knows that there is no need for beauty or fashion or probably anything you'll find on this page, to be successful of confident. Some people believe that they do not need to be conventionally beautiful. She respects the thought. She personally believes in the concept of self-love 'because of' everything a person is, and not 'in spite of' any aspect. She believes that different forms of beauty include imperfections. From the perfect roses, to the unique orchids – it's all beautiful.
OD also loves to eat anything and everything. It is nobody's business what she puts in her mouth. She hates being judged for eating the whole pizza, enjoying beef steak, or avoiding veg food. She also hates the condescension she receives for skipping carbs, or exercising. She understands that her paradoxical habits are confusing, but they are her own. Just like most of her thoughts, ideas and views.
Now you have a small idea about OD and this site. But, don't try to judge her of figure her out from her posts. Just read what you enjoy, and skip the rest. She knows she cannot please everyone, and respects people's feelings and principles, as long as those feelings and principles do not disrespect anyone's existence or reality.

The Bergen Record has the story:
"Former Los Angeles Dodgers star Raul Mondesi, who also played for the Yankees, has been sentenced to eight years in prison after being convicted of embezzlement during his term as mayor of his hometown in the Dominican Republic.
The district court of San Cristobal, a town west of the capital Santo Domingo, also ordered this week that Mondesi pay a $1.3 million fine.
The Attorney General's office charged Mondesi of embezzling $6.3 million while he was mayor of San Cristobal from 2010-16, according to the court."

I have to admit, when I considered using The One and Only Ivan as my first core novel in 5th grade, I was a little worried. I know that most kids love animals and I thought that would be motivating for students to launch into a PBL on some aspect of animals; however, I, myself, am not a huge animal lover. I mean, I have two cats, I had a cat growing up, my dad had dogs and I loved them, but I just was never one of those kids who wanted to be a veterinarian, nor was I a kid who had folders for school with little kittens on them. I am embarrassed to admit this actually because it makes me seem a little hard core, but so be it, "I yam what I yam!" as Popeye says. After I had children of my own, my love for animals also decreased a bit. Not sure why, except to say that my primary love became all about my kids.
But, I decided I could fake it. Did I have to have this huge amount of empathy and compassion for animals to teach this unit? I hoped not. One thing I didn't expect to happen, was the change that occurred and is occurring within me! The more I learn, the more empathy I have for animals, and animals of all kinds! It seems so silly when I look at it now. Of course the teacher also learns while teaching! I am not, nor have I ever considered myself, "Teacher: All Knowing and #1 Person in Charge!" I am co-learner, chief facilitator, but first and foremost, co-learner. Project based learning has been an incredible vehicle to teach my students, but most surprisingly, it has taught me more than just content. It has taught me about my own heart.

The Real Cupcakes of Las Vegas
How can you not love cupcakes? They're cute, they're petite and they're just the perfect size to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Cupcakes can also be addicting with wordplay. My friends and I started a game where we replace the word "cupcake" in popular TV show titles. Funny titles included "How I Met Your Cupcake," "All My Cupcakes," "General Cupcake" and "My So-Called Cupcake," to name a few. Speaking of TV shows, I'm a huge fan of the "The Cupcake Wars" and was stoked when vegan chef, Chloe Coscarelli won for her gingerbread nutmeg spice cupcakes. So when I first heard about a live cupcake bake-off in town, I was thrilled.
Presented by Gigi's Cupcakes, on Sunday, August 19, 100 bakers will compete inside the ballroom at Suncoast hotel from noon to 3 p.m. The winner will be titled "Best Cupcake Baker in Las Vegas" and receive $1,500. The winning cupcake will be featured in both Gigi's Cupcake locations in Las Vegas. Participants are eligible to win a portion of $2,500 in cash prizes.
Even if you're not participating in the bake-off, you'll have the chance to indulge in cupcakes and beverages. Guests 21 and older have cocktail options. The event also includes flair bartenders and speed decorating demonstrations.
Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for children 12 and younger. A portion of the proceeds go to charity. It's a win-win situation: You'll make your taste buds happy, all while helping a good cause. Sounds like a sweet deal.

Layar brings digital interactivity to print
June 14 - The Netherlands-based software developer Layar, best known for its augmented reality smartphone application, is moving to help publishers more easily link print publications with digital content.
Software from Layar, founded in 2009 and backed by Intel Capital INTC.O, has been downloaded to more than 20 million mobile devices. However, the firm has struggled to generate revenues from its large consumer following and is turning to publishing firms using AR for advertising or adding digital content to print publications. General manager Maarten Lens-Fitzgerald spearks to Reuters TV about the shift from the Reuters Global Technology, Media and Telecoms Summit in Paris.

Notes: Haneda, M., & Wells, G. (2000). Writing in knowledge-building communities
Citekey: @Haneda2000
Haneda, M., & Wells, G. (2000). Writing in knowledge-building communities. Research in the Teaching of English, 34(3), 430–457. Retrieved from http://www.jstor.org/stable/40171501
This position piece articulates how writing is perceived and supported in knowledge building. It presents a thorough discussion of "current" understanding in writing, gaps in writing instruction, and the role Knowledge Building plays in writing (and roles writing plays in knowledge building). It also presents three examples of writing in knowledge building communities, in which roles of teachers and technology are explored. It summarizes some principles for teaching and support writing in knowledge building.
Abstract (p. 1)
Despite the increasing technologization of our society or perhaps, indeed, because of it literacy continues to be one of the principal goals of education. Yet the way in which the goal of literacy development is interpreted in classroom practice too easily becomes reduced to the mastering of 'basic skills', as students engage in routine exercises in reading and writing, drawn from textbooks that they have no part in choosing. However, 'full literacy' the disposition to engage appropriately with texts of different types in order to empower action, thinking, and feeling in the context of purposeful social activity (Wells, 1990) will never be achieved until students' interests and purposes become the driving force for the literacy curriculum. This is even more true for students discovering how writing can be an occasion for learning. In this position paper, therefore, we focus on some of the roles that writing can play in developing literacy and learning when it takes place within classroom knowledge building communities. To illustrate our argument, we draw on examples from the classrooms of teacher researcher colleagues. (p. 1)
models of the writing process proposed and further elaborated by such scholars as Flower & Hayes (1981), de Beaugrande (1984), and Bereiter and Scardamalia (1987). However, with the exception of the latter, this research did not have much connection with classrooms and was premised very largely on a conception of writing as a cognitive-linguistic activity carried out by individuals in isolation from a discourse community of other readers and writers.1 (p. 2)
A clear feature of these classroom studies, connecting them to much writing undertaken outside educational contexts, is the primary concern with meaning and purposeful communication. (p. 3)
From these various kinds of research, both cognitive and social, a number of conclusions can be drawn: • The process of becoming literate is inherently social in nature, even though it is individuals who read and write. Literacy events do not take place in isolation, but in relation to a discourse community of which the reader or writer is, or wishes to become, a member. • Writing is first and foremost concerned with developing a structure of meaning; the specification of what one wants to say becomes clearer and more complete in the actual writing and revising of the text for a particular purpose and audience. • It follows, therefore, that the literate practices and values that individuals develop depend on the purposes for reading and writing that they encounter in home, school and (p. 3)
community activities; where these differ, or even more when they are in conflict, the process of becoming literate is rendered increasingly difficult. (p. 4)
Changing Approaches to Writing in the Classroom (p. 6)
There certainly have been significant changes, in the last twenty-five years, in the way in which the learning and teaching of writing is approached in the English-speaking world. Emig's (1971) seminal work on the composing processes of twelfth graders opened a new door for writing researchers. In place of traditional product analysis, they began to explore what goes on in individual writers' heads while composing. (e.g., Flower & Hayes, 1981, 1984; Bereiter & Scardamalia, 1987), and this, in turn, led to a shift in perspective from a view of writing as a linear process to a recognition of its recursive nature, involving pre-planning and revising as ongoing component activities. (p. 6)
This theoretical emphasis on process-oriented writing instruction has, in general, brought about positive changes in teaching practice. (p. 6)
ne of the criticisms has been that, despite the theoretical recognition of writing as a recursive process, it is still the case that, in many classrooms, writing continues to be presented as a linear sequence of planning, pre-writing, writing, revising and publishing. (p. 7)
A second criticism has emerged from the focus on the social purposes of writing. (p. 7)
In other words, decisions about how to help students master the 'technology' of writing cannot usefully be taken on their own for, as with reading and talking, what students learn about writing will depend upon what they use writing to do. (p. 9)
Learning and Knowledge Building (p. 9)
At the heart of our approach to learning through inquiry is the notion of 'the spiral of knowing' (figure 1), which posits understanding as the goal of learning. (p. 11)
All learning starts from personal experience, as one is currently able to understand it; to this is added information, whether sought out, deliberately provided by others, or picked up incidentally. However, new information does not automatically lead to enhanced understanding; for this to occur, the information needs to be articulated with what is already understood, often involving a degree of transformation in the process. This is achieved through knowledge building, sometimes undertaken solo in 'inner speech', but more often in dialogue with others. (p. 11)
Thus, knowledge building is the process through which, by purposefully knowing together, we increase both our individual and our common understanding (Wells, 1999). (p. 12)
Writing as a Tool for Knowledge Building (p. 12)
Within this framework, as it applies in the classroom, writing has a dual role. The process of composing a written text is always potentially an occasion of knowledge building, as the writer attempts to communicate what he or she understands about a topic or situation to an audience of others or to the writer on a future occasion. (p. 12)
However, as a means of mediating the enhancement of understanding, writing is most powerful when the text already written, or in process of being written, is treated as an object with which the writer dialogues in the effort to improve it. For in transforming the text, one also to some degree transforms one's own understanding. (p. 12)
This opportunity for reciprocal transformation of self and text is the reason for treating writing as one of the most effective means of learning (Langer & Applebee, 1987). Generally, however, this benefit is conceived in terms of the solitary writer. (p. 13)
In these latter circumstances, the text in production is indeed an improvable object, and one which engages the joint writers in spoken dialogue about aspects of its creation, ranging from their understanding of the topic, through the selection and organization of the information to include in the light of the intended audience, to the composition of successive sentences and paragraphs. In the process, too, linguistic choices of genre, register, syntax and vocabulary are also involved not to mention spelling and punctuation. (p. 13)
In order to give substance to these claims, in the following sections we will present some examples of writing functioning as a means of collaborative knowledge building, drawn from the action research carried out by members of DICEP in local schools. (p. 13)
Dinosaur Schools (p. 14)
Seeds and Webs (p. 18)
When children took home books to read with their parents, she asked the parents to write the children's reflective comments on Post-it notes and to stick each note on the appropriate page. Then, when several children had read the same book, she planned to discuss the book with them and create a web in which their notes were spatially related in terms of ideas that were connected in some way. (p. 18)
It must be unusual for six-year-olds to be engaged, as they are here, in considering the relationship between the different themes of a story and providing justifications for their opinions. But what is particularly interesting about the procedure that the teacher has invented is that, by having the children's comments on different aspects of the story written on small Post-it notes, their ideas do indeed become objects that can be compared, and physically placed in different relationships to each other. (p. 19)
This is the meta-cognitive talk. They are not used to making these thoughts explicit, and it is exactly this type of talk that moves the conversation beyond discussion of the literal into the more abstract themes of the story. (p. 19)
The experience of engaging in the use of seeds and webs to respond to literature helped us [the teachers] to grow as learners and to value the understanding that can be gained through literature. (p. 20)
In this example, we see the very first attempt in these two classroom communities to use a new genre of written text a web as a means of relating story themes and structures to the the story world and to personal experience. Not surprisingly, the teacher has to provide a considerable amount of supportive scaffolding. In the next example, by contrast, the students are sufficiently familiar with the tool they are using to manage without such teacher support. (p. 20)
contrast, the students are sufficiently familiar with the tool they are using to manage without such teacher support. (p. 21)
Building the Knowledge Wall (p. 21)
Traditionally, writing has been thought of as monologic and conversation as dialogic. (p. 21)
Computer Supported Intentional Learning Environment (CSILE) for exactly this purpose (Scardamalia, Bereiter, & Lamon, 1994) (p. 21)
Three years ago, Karen Hume read an article describing CSILE and was intrigued by its possibilities for supporting the kind of inquiry-oriented work she promotes in her intermediate level classrooms.5 However, as her school did not have the necessary network of computers, she had to find an alternative, less costly, 'technology'. Her solution was both cheap and very effective. She cleared a large notice-board on one wall of her classroom to serve as the equivalent of the database and waited for an appropriate opportunity to launch her idea. (p. 21)
role of technology empirical example of what to do without access to KF: a wall. this has been tested in many different cases (Idea First in Singapore). (p. 21)
Karen saw her opportunity and asked the first student to write his observation and proposed explanation on a Post-it note and pin it to the notice-board. She then invited other students to add their comments and alternative explanations. Within minutes, the first notes were posted and, over the next two days, some 40 more were added to the board, some signed and some anonymous. Arguments for both positions a very large number of reflections, or none at all were initially almost equally forthcoming. However, those who believed there would be no reflections finally succeeded in persuading their opponents through the cogency of the arguments that they used to support their position. (p. 22)
This was the inauguration of the 'Knowledge Wall' and, since then, it has played a central role in many curricular units in Karen's classroom. Typically, after some initial exploration of the topic, the class brainstorms the questions they think are most worth pursuing. These questions are then posted on the knowledge wall. Students select the questions they are most interested in researching and add their findings, theories and further questions to the knowledge wall as the principal means of pursuing their inquiries. From time to time, whole class discussions are held orally to make connections between the different issues being investigated and to reflect on their significance. (p. 22)
This is not to argue that writing supersedes oral discussion. In all classrooms in which this sort of written discussion occurs, participants also talk with each other about notes already posted and those they are thinking of writing. However, something more is involved when the contribution is made in writing. Unlike speech, writing leaves a record of the activity involved an object that can be returned to at leisure, and then reconsidered and improved through revision or response (Lotman, 1988). (p. 25)
oral and written
why written is important. also corresponds to the importance of technology. (p. 25)
An equally important feature of writing in this mode is that it requires the writer to make the intended point explicit and relevant to the ongoing structure of the discussion. This need for responsivity is much less apparent when writing in essay form for the teacher; however, on the knowledge wall, it is clearly essential for the effectiveness of the contribution. The point about 'progressive discourse', as Bereiter emphasizes, is that this is not a solitary, but a collaborative, undertaking: as they write to, and for, each other, "understandings are being generated that are new to the local participants and that the participants recognize as superior to their previous understandings" (Bereiter, 1994, p.9). (p. 26)
Discussion (p. 26)
As has been established through further work on Vygotsky's (1987) concept of the zone of proximal development, assistance can be provided in a variety of forms and by many kinds of 'others'. What is essential is that the participants be involved in a joint activity and have goals that are compatible. Although the form of assistance that an 'expert' other can give is often beneficial in providing scaffolding that is tailored to the learner's needs, there is also much to be gained from working with peers on a question to which no-one knows the answer in advance, and where each learns through collaborative knowledge building as they attempt to construct an answer or solution (Wells, 1999). (p. 26)
As we have argued, one of the key characteristics of a knowledge building community is purposeful and thoughtful use of language, both spoken and written, as students actively engage in interactive/collaborative activities that involve what we, as well as Langer and Applebee (1987), have called "literate thinking". Within such a community, writing is used as a tool for learning in many different ways, according to the interests and concerns of community members at particular moments in time. However, for it to serve as a means of building knowledge and increasing understanding, two principles seem to be paramount: • the text serves a purpose in the life of the community and will be responded to accordingly by others who share the authors' interests; in this sense, the writing is part of an ongoing dialogue, the aim of which is for all concerned to achieve a richer understanding of what is at issue. • within this communicative context, writing is treated as being concerned primarily with discovering and developing meaning in dialogue with the emerging text; issues of structure and lexico-grammar are not neglected, but they are first considered in terms of their function in clarifying meaning and, together with spelling, only secondarily in relation to conventional correctness. (p. 27)
how writing is viewed in KB
1) text serves a purpose; 2) being communicative comes the first. (p. 27)
In the last two decades there has been much debate over the relative importance to be given to "process" and "product" in relation to the teaching of writing. However, when students are really interested in the topic they are exploring, and have a real purpose for their writing, this dichotomy ceases to be relevant. (p. 28)
Thinking about writing from the perspective outlined here makes it very clear that teachers have a number of important roles to play in helping students to develop as writers. First is the creating of settings and activities in which genuine purposes for writing may develop as well as audiences to whom the writing may be addressed. These features need to be planned so that students will be encouraged to extend their knowledge about the topics or subject matter under investigation and at the same time to appropriate and make their own those written genres that are likely to be required for academic success.8 Second is the provision of advice and instruction for example on register and genre choices offered when they will be most helpful (Atwell, 1987). And third is contingently responsive support to individual students at varying stages in the composition and revision of their texts (Haneda, 1999). (p. 29)
teacher's role in writing
1) setup; 2) advice and instruction — when needed; 3) responsiveness. (p. 29)
In this paper, we have drawn on the work of students and teachers involved in the Developing Inquiring Communities in Education Project to argue for the value of treating writing, not as an end in itself, but as a tool for knowledge building. In particular, we have drawn attention to the importance of agency the making of deliberate, functional choices as well as working in collaboration with others as criterial features of such communities. As we hope to have shown, when writing is used as a means of knowledge building, not only do students extend their repertoire of writing strategies but the effort they put into creating functionally effective texts plays a significant role in their learning and enhances the development of shared understanding among all those involved.

By prior agreement, Hitler let Stalin take the eastern two-thirds of Poland.
Hitler said he was responding to Polish provocation, but Polish troops were reacting to a German troop buildup on their western border.
The German invasion began one week after Stalin and Hitler put aside their animosities temporarily and agreed to the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, dividing up Poland between Germany and the Soviet Union.
In his "Soldier's Creed", Willem van Stockum cited the
motivation of a soldier as defending "one Polish urchin"
rather than a dream of a postwar Utopia
Britain and France entered the war after two days on behalf of Poland.
But the German army unleashed its Blitzkrieg, or "lightning war". In six days they had taken Krakow, in ten they were outside Warsaw.
The Soviet invasion commenced 16 days later, on Sept. 17, 1939.
The campaign ended on Oct. 6, 1939 with the total division and annexations of Poland.

Logical Fallacies
There are many different types of logical fallacies, all of which render the authors argument invalided. The presence of a formal fallacy in an argument does not imply anything about the argument's premises or its conclusion. Even so, speakers and writers use faulty logic and irrational emotional appeals to persuade there readers everyday, newspapers and television are great examples of this. But the cost of the risk is great, if you try to slide one by your readers and they see through your trick you will loose your credibility instantly.
One example is hasty generalization: the writer bases the argument on insufficient or unrepresentative evidence. Say that you own two dogs of the same breed and you are attacked by one of them. If you then declare that all dogs of this breed are viscous, you are making a hasty generalization. In other words if you come to this conclusion and your generalization is drawn from a sample that is too small, your conclusion is invalid.
Another example of logical fallacy is begging the question, as the writer presents the truth what is supposed to be proven by the argument. An example here could be the statement "All useless laws such as Reform Bill 13 should be repealed." The writer has already assumed that the bill is useless without assuming responsibility for proving that accusation. Then the writer may use red herring, where he will introduce an irrelevant point to divert the readers attention from the main topic. This term actually originates from an old tactic used by escaped prisoners, by dragging a smoked herring across there trail to confuse the tracking dogs. That right there was an example of red herring by stating the origin of the term I had the reader thinking about something completely different from the actual topic.
There are many other types of logical fallacies such as non sequitur, argument ad hominem, either/or, and circular thinking, but I believe that I have described the...

Avid movie and TV series fans know the pain of wanting to watch their favorite shows on Netflix that aren't available in their country. Some users are also complaining about the lack of decent movies and TV series in their media libraries. VPN services are always the best option for unblocking Netflix and bypassing geo-restrictions, although the entertainment company has been cracking down VPN sites.
Lucky for you, there is still a way around this dilemma that most Netflix subscribers are experiencing. You don't have to move to another country just to be able to enjoy the videos of your choice – you just have to have the perfect VPN service that can unblock Netflix.
What Are Geo-Restricted Contents
Netflix purchases licenses on the movies and TV shows that are added to their media library, and some of these licenses are only available for certain countries. These geo-restricted contents cannot be accessed by users who are not (or whose IP addresses are not) located in the specified countries. Some countries cannot even access Netflix itself, either because it is not available in their location or their government has banned entertainment sites.
One way of bypassing geo-restrictions and censorships is through a VPN service: it lets you choose a server located in a country that you want to appear in. For example, if your favorite show is not available for viewing in your country, you can choose a server located in the country where it is available. Since VPN services assign a different IP address to you, you will appear as if you are living in that country. Therefore, you can now access the content that you like.
Best VPNs To Unblock Netflix
VPNArea. VPNArea may be a small provider based in Bulgaria, but is not one to be belittled – it has the features of a large and established VPN service provider (and maybe even more). It can unblock Netflix in your country and uses advanced protocols to make sure that your tracks are covered. It encrypts your data with a 256-bit AES encryption, features an Anti DNS Leak system, and an Anti WebRTC system which prevents hackers and scammers from snooping in on the websites you visit and tracking your location. Additionally, it doesn't keep user logs so you can watch your favorite movies in peace.
VPNArea has 190 servers in 51 different countries, from Germany all the way to Singapore so you have plenty of choices in location. Its unlimited bandwidth and 'Users Online' function, which shows you how many users are connected to a particular sever, lets you choose an unpopulated server and enjoy the fast speed. You can even extend your online protection and connect up to five devices at the same time so you can watch Netflix on your phone or tablet.
ExpressVPN. One of the best reviewed VPN services in the internet because of its top security features and easy to use software which are perfect for the casual internet user, ExpressVPN is another great choice if you want to unblock Netflix. It uses the SSL protocol with 256-bit encryption to ensure your security; they are also constantly improving their network to provide unlimited bandwidth, speed, and server switches so you can watch your favorite TV shows without interruptions. There are also 136 VPN server locations in 87 different countries to choose from, so you have access to various media libraries.
Using ExpressVPN is extremely convenient because it is compatible with most operating systems such as Mac, Windows, Linux, and even Android and iOS. All you have to do is to sign up for a subscription in their website, install the software, and connect to the internet. They have three different plans to choose from, or if you want to try their services first before deciding, they have a 30-day money-back guarantee. Their customer support is can also be reached round-the-clock through live chat or email so your concerns can easily be addressed.
VyprVPN. Unlike some VPN services that use third party servers which slow down connection speeds and weaken your security, VyprVPN owns and manages its VPN servers. This guarantees a fast and secure connection because all the traffic will be directly sent to your computer. Its application is extremely user-friendly and is compatible with most devices like Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android so you can unblock Netflix and watch it on any device you want.
It offers a huge number of server locations, which include 700+ servers in 50+ worldwide locations and 200,000+ global IP addresses. Plus, they have unlimited server switching and no data caps so you can continue to do whatever you want to in the internet without any restrictions.
Aside from those unique features, VyprVPN uses L2TP, PPTP, OpenVPN, and Chameleon protocols, an additional NAT Firewall, and zero-knowledge DNS to make sure that you are truly protected while watching movies and TV shows. They also prevent throttling by encrypting your traffic so your internet service provider (ISP) will be unable to read it, allowing you to enjoy faster and limitless internet speed.
NordVPN. While other VPN services are either overpricing a decent service or sacrificing quality over quantity, NordVPN lets you unblock Netflix while still offering an affordable rate for their services. It uses the DoubleVPN technology, a unique system that encrypts your data twice using military-grade AES-256-CBC encryption. It also uses a DNS Leak resolver in case DNS servers send unencrypted queries outside your server and expose your IP address, including the entertainment sites that you have visited.
With 999 server locations found in 51 countries, NordVPN also gives you options on which types of servers suits your needs and interests. For those who want to stream high-definition videos, you can choose NordVPN servers that are specially handpicked for entertainment purposes. It also prevents throttling by your ISP, which could limit your media sharing. You can download, upload, and stream videos as much as you want, especially because of its easy to use app.

Bezier warp generates unwanted vertices and tangents animations
Newbie here with a question (thus potentially dumb).
I am trying to bezier-warp animate a rectangle to sort of mimic the animation of windows reveal/hide on mac.
The rectangle is originally at the bottom of the composition viewport. Its vertical size is roughly a third of the composition height.
Here are the steps of the animations:
keyframe 1:
- move top left and right vertices and their tangents (the ones of the top edge of the rectangle) to the vertical middle of the "empty" space above the rectangle.
- move the top left and right vertices to the left and right edges of the composition viewport respectively.
- move up the side tangents connected to the aforementioned vertices in order to preserve their original distance from their own vertex.
keyframe 2:
- move top left and right vertices and their tangents (the ones of the top edge of the rectangle) to the top edge of the composition.
- move the side tangents connected to the top vertices sideways until they reach the edges (left/right respectively) of the composition and are aligned with their associated vertex. Then move up these side tangents in order to preserve their original distance from their own vertex.
- move the bottom left/right vertices and their tangents (the ones of the bottom edge of the rectangle) up until the rectangle height reaches the same height/width ration it originally had.
- move the side tangents associated with the bottom vertices up to preserve the distance from their associated vertices.
Until this point things animate as I would expect and I get a sort of warped trapezoid shape with the top edge the width of the composition, the bottom edge it's original width and the height is the ratio of the original height based on the composition width.
So far so good. Now I want to warp the bottom of that shape and increase its width to morph that trapezoid back into a rectangle.
keyframe 3:
- move the bottom edge vertices and their associated side tangents sideways until they reach the left/right edges of the composition respectively.
For a reason that is beyond my understanding this does not work as expected. Instead of moving just sideways, the vertices and tangents move up and then down without any apparent reason. The values at the keyframes are correct but the interpolation seems just random.
I assume this is a "normal" behavior because I have re-done this animation several time to make sure it was not a human error and this always happens.
Is there a setting to this script I haven't noticed to prevent this from happening or some further documentation I should read to understand how and why this happens?
Any help would be much appreciated!

2011 Met Gala's Worst Dressed
Maggie Gyllenhaal (in Louis Vuitton), Tina Fey (in Yves St. Laurent), Katy Perry (in Cute Circuit) and Kristen Stewart (in Chanel) were among the worst dressed at the 2011 Met Gala. However they weren't alone, there was actually quiet a few celebrities that graced the red carpet in fashion No No's. Even the beloved fashion queen Jennifer Lopez was in a no so cute flower power Gucci gown. However, celebrity that did manage to steal the spotlight as always was Beyonce Knowles in a form fitting black and gold Pucci gown.

We haven't fallen off the planet...well perhaps we have. We have been hiding in our basement feeling a little yucky. Both girls have had strep, and have been recovering. The youngest's case included more vomiting than I'd like to remember, which caused lack of sleep for her parents. The oldest was in so much pain, that she cried much of the night, and had a hard time sleeping. I'm so grateful at this moment for medications that doctors can apply to relieve pain when ibuprofen just doesn't cut it.
So, the Holiday Plan is a bit derailed, and might be for a little bit more, as I plan a baptism ceremony for my son (he turned 8 in September and has chosen a date in October to be baptized, that will include as many family members as we can, but also involves driving out of state so that it's easier for more grandparents to get there). Once I'm back, and hopefully everyone is healthy, I'll get to start washing baby clothes & the cloth diapers to have them ready!! I'm excited!!!

It's hard out here for a blogger
Thursday August 10, 2006
Mike McDonald found himself in a room with a larger A-list than a Nathaniel Hawthorne character sketch. San Jose (or thereabouts) is where the big search engines and their famed bloggers live. The only thing better than this, says Mike, would be Danny Sullivan in lederhosen.
Editor's Note:
Managing editor Mike McDonald of WebProNews filed this exclusive look at the SES 2006 San Jose session featuring a number of A list bloggers. Discuss your reaction at
"I lost a World Cup bet, so tomorrow I will be wearing lederhosen for the organic search panel," says Sullivan.
Sullivan is the moderator for "Speaking Unofficially," a panel comprised of Google's
Matt Cutts
, Yahoo!'s
Jeremy Zawodny
, Microsoft's
Niall Kennedy
, and Ask.com's
Gary Price
. The four of them spill their guts about life on the corporate blogging A-list.
Cutts and Zawodny, as may be expected, seem to have the most to say on the subject. Cutts feels as though he's a "security blanket" to an extent, as SEOers and Webmasters hang on his every word for the next Google tweak. Zawodny just wants everyone to know that bloggin' ain't easy.
Keeping up with a blog is a lot of work. How do you guys do it?
Zawodny: It does take a lot of time. People ask: 'how much time does it take?' And I never know how to answer that because it's so hard to quantify. Sometimes it takes no time at all, other times it takes half the day.
Are you having to show the company what you guys write about?
Cutts: Maybe 3 or 4 posts I've sent over to legal or PR, but in general it's just something I write at 3 am and just send out.
Zawodny: I think maybe I've done that 3 or 4 times, but I've never had anybody say 'don't say this' or 'don't post out' or anything like that.
Jeremy on speaking for Yahoo:
"One thing that happens is that someone will see something I've said and ascribe that to Yahoo, as in 'Yahoo draws a hard line,' or whatever, which is just wrong. And then what happens a lot of the time is that people won't link back to the original statements, or whatever, and the inaccuracy just lives on in the headlines."
How has the blogosphere created something of a democracy, and also somewhat of an imbalance insofar as what gets talked about? How do you feel about that underlying democracy wherein you have so much more influence over what is discussed than the smaller guy?
Cutts: I try to look for a lot of important feeds where news might break where people wouldn't normally look. I try to track down the smaller guys. The blogosphere can act as an echo chamber in both a good and bad way.
Zawodny: I think the whole democratizing nature of it went away a couple of years ago. I've actually tried to shy away from more of the echo side of things. The skill, I think, for companies is knowing when to get involved and when not to get involved.
Price: There's so much in the blogosphere where one person says something's great and the next will say it sucks.
Are you PR people at the end of the day?
Cutts: "I don't view Jeremy as ...
a PR man when he writes that Yahoo Finance has this and that problem. I view that as ballsy. People care more about an authentic voice than they do anything else. If you only use your company's products, for example, people will think you're fake.
Zawodny: I think it's tricky for people to see because we don't always say when we're putting the hat on or taking the hat off. There are people at Yahoo who think my job at Yahoo is the company blogger. A lot of people will have that perception just because that's the most visible thing you're doing.
Price: If i become a shill for Ask.com, then I'm no longer valuable.
Kennedy: It really depends on who it is. If it's the official product team it's one thing.
Where do you draw the line about what you talk about?
Cutts: The supplemental results have been completely refreshed with completely new infrastructure, but I can't really delve too deep into the underlying details. That's an example where much beyond the surface would be inappropriate.
Zawodny: I guess for me figuring out where the line was by repeatedly crossing it and getting some visits in my office - usually not a lawyer - but a VP or whatever. I average about one of these office visits every year. I'm actually overdue about now.'
What's the feedback on the video blogging?
*Matt recently began video blogging on SEO topics.
Cutts: Like so many things, I kinda just backed into it. My wife is out of town, I had the bills paid, the cat groomed, caught up on my email. And I'm looking around and there's the video camera, so put all the lamps in the house in one room and just kinda threw something up on Google Video. Now there have been something like 80,000 downloads. It's important to keep trying new things and it's a lot of fun.
Zawodny: What I've been looking at, something I think has really come along, I think is
. That's what I hope to spend some more time working some more with.

You probably heard about the term 'carving your own niche.' It seems like a good thing, really, but what does it actually mean to carve your own niche? More importantly, how can you do it? Is the process possible despite the height of competition in most niches now? To understand the process of niche carving, you have to look back in the past. Read about the popular trendsetters and understand what drives them forward.
If you're curious about niche carving and you want to know how it will work for your business, you can analyze these important factors.
Niches Can Be Formed and Destroyed Easily
Niches act like categories that envelop all of the interests of humanity. While there are prevalent niches out there, some of them are almost unrecognized. In a snap, you can create a niche of your own, but maintaining it is another issue. Will your niche become so popular that entire communities might be built around it? Is your niche bootstrapped for survival? If you understand that niches can be easily formed and destroyed, you'll have a fair idea of the market's standards.
There's Room for More
Some niche experts will try to dissuade you from making your own name. Ignore them – the market is actually craving for more niches. Even if there are thousands out there, the room is still large. You just need to figure out how you can enter this room and preserve your sweet spot. Competent brainstorming is the real key here. Start juggling problems in the drawing board and determine the solutions needed. From there, you can move on to your next step.
Resources are Needed
Building a niche will take time, money, and manpower. Take account of your current resources so there won't be any problems along the way. If shortage is imminent, start working out deals to increase your resource cache.
By claiming your own niche spot, you can take your business to high levels of growth. In addition, you'll become a respected figure that people can rely on.

Surrender of Breda, the event took place on June 2, 1625, when the Dutch governor, Justin de Nassau, delivered the keys of the city, symbolically, to Ambrosio de Spinola, the Spanish commander. This happened in fact three days after the city was taken. In 1639, shortly after the canvas was painted, Spain lost the city forever; it was conquered by Frederick Henry of Orange

Subtlety is not something my family is very good at. We tend to be forthright, direct, unambiguous, and very matter-of-fact. It's a highly regarded family trait, I assure you.
So when I received an email from Dad the other day, telling me that he just finished (and very much enjoyed) the last piece of applesauce cake in his freezer, and the batch of oatmeal raisin cookies I baked for them when I was at their house last year happened to be long gone as well, I knew, without having to read between the lines, what he was trying to tell me.
Get baking, and make it quick!
Being the semi-smart girl I am, I kicked the oven into high gear, and have packed up a box containing the applesauce cake, lemon cake, the aforementioned oatmeal raisin cookies, and a few of these ginger spice cookies as well. I think Dad will really like them…. but Mom, ummm not so much.
Her dislike of cinnamon is well documented, and as is our family trait, she is not subtle at all in proclaiming it.

A single serving of light, buttery loveliness. A simple yet elusive delight.
Sponge cakes were first detailed as a recipe in the 1615 book of The English Huswife, Containing the Inward and Outward Virtues Which Ought to Be in a Complete Woman by English poet and author Gervase Markham. Things have moved on a little since then!
Perhaps its best known incarnation is the Victoria Sponge named after Queen Victoria who was rather partial to a slice.
It's surprisingly tricky to get a sponge right. Internet recipes and cookbooks reveal a plethora of differing ingredients, quantities and advice. Quite confusing for the home chef eager to learn.
I believe that if you can get a sponge right it helps with so many other cake recipes as there are some key techniques which are vital to a light tasty result.
The first thing I have learned is that baking really is a science. Quality and quantity combined with the right techniques are essential. You need to do your research here. There are only four base ingredients to a sponge; butter, sugar, eggs and flour.
The essence of a good sponge lies in its light, airy quality. How does that happen?
A sponge's airy texture comes from air being beaten into the butter at the creaming stage which forms tiny little bubbles circled by the fat in the butter. If we cooked this mixture it would collapse because fat melts in heat.
However, egg is then added to the mix which forms a rigid structure around the bubbles when cooked and therefore the sponge keeps its shape.
Finally, the flour forms a network around the bubbles to give the cake structure. Also it contains a raising agent called baking powder (not baking soda – they are different). For this recipe I'm using self raising flour but you can use plain flour with baking powder mixed through it.
Armed with this information I went off to find an expert to confirm what I believed about baking sponges.
Rachel Allen has been writing and broadcasting about food for over a decade. She has written several bestselling books on baking and is an established cookery teacher. To say the least, she knows a thing or two about baking sponges. She is also incredibly giving with her time and agreed to meet me to talk about everything 'sponge'!
Firstly we discussed using quality ingredients. If you have only four ingredients you must use good quality ones to get good results. So use decent caster sugar, self raising flour, free range eggs with really yellow yolks and finally good quality unsalted butter. Do not use margarine!
N.B. All these ingredients should be at room temperature before you start.
Weigh your eggs in their shells and then weigh equal quantities of your butter, flour and sugar. In many recipes you will see the number of eggs given to a quantity of the other ingredients. Think about this for a moment, if you are using free range, organic eggs they may well come in very different sizes. Don't confuse them with the battery farmed 'single size' supermarket ones. If we understand that baking is a science and ratios of ingredients are important then it makes sense to get equal weights.
Secondly, regarding technique, you really need to cream your butter and sugar well to incorporate all those air bubbles. This takes time so stick with it. Use a large bowl to really get the butter beaten well. The butter / sugar mix will go a much paler colour as the bubbles build up.
Have your eggs beaten together in a bowl separately before adding to your mixture. This will break the eggs up and help them incorporate into the butter.
At the next stage make sure you 'fold' the sieved flour into the mixture and don't beat any more. We need to keep the bubbles in there that we have taken so much effort to create. Tip the bowl up at one side and slide the spoon under the mix and fold it over to mix the flour through. I find it best to use a big metal spoon at this stage as it has a wider surface area and sharper edge than a wooden one which helps with the folding motion. This is another reason why a big bowl is important as you can get a bigger 'folding' motion going.
How do you know if your sponge batter is right? Lift up a spoonful and it should drop back off the spoon into the bowl with reasonable ease. If it doesn't, add a little milk until it does. Bit by bit as you don't want to over do it!
We discussed ovens. As I have said before, ovens vary in their temperature and you may need to experiment. Do not be afraid of failure. Rachel reiterated this and said that practice is crucial. Remember also that the size of your fairy cakes may vary depending on the size of cases you buy. They are all quite different and the producers spend more time on making them look pretty than they do stating the size.
The cooking time is important when it comes to the rise of the sponge. As the egg forms a rigid coating to the bubbles it must be given time for the proteins to set. Think about how an egg toughens as you fry it. Therefore, if the oven door is opened too early, the egg collapses around the bubble and the sponge deflates.
I asked Rachel about my belief that we should initially learn how to bake without using electric beaters or mixers. She agreed with this saying that we then understand what we are looking for at each stage a little better. We are in closer contact with the ingredients and can spot changes during the process better.
Bearing in mind all of Rachel's advice let's make fairycakes!
This recipe should be about right for 12 fairy cakes.
- 3 eggs weighed in their shells
- Equal quantities of caster sugar, butter and self raising flour.
- A little whole milk
- A big mixing bowl
- 12 individual fairy cake cases
- A 12 hole baking tray to snugly hold the cases.
- A wooden spoon
- A metal spoon
- A skewer
Pre – heat your oven to 180 °C / Fan 160 °C
Have your cases in the tray ready to go.
With the wooden spoon, cream the butter and sugar together in the mixing bowl until pale and fluffy and lots of air has been incorporated. This could take up to 10 minutes depending on how well you beat and how much your arm can take!
Whisk your eggs in a separate bowl and gradually start to add a little at a time to your butter / sugar mix. Beat well between each addition and incorporate all the egg before adding more. If it looks like it has split then you can add a teaspoon of flour to stabilize it.
Once all the egg had been added then sieve your flour into the bowl. Sieving gets rid of lumps and incorporates more air.
Fold in the flour using the large metal spoon. Check for dropping consistency. Add milk a little at a time if the mixture is too thick.
Spoon equal amounts of the mix into each paper case to just under half full. They will rise and you want space at the top to pipe icing and decorate your cakes.
Put them straight into the oven and bake for 15 – 20 minutes depending on your oven or the size of your cases. Don't open the oven for at least 15 minutes or they may collapse, although this is more important for the larger
sponge. Victoria
Remove from the oven and insert a skewer into the cake. If it comes out clean with no mixture sticking to it then it is ready.
Put the cakes onto a cooling rack and leave until completely cool before applying your topping of choice.
For the cakes pictured here I made a simple butter icing using double the quantity of icing sugar to really good softened French unsalted butter.
200 g Icing Sugar
100 g Butter
Simply beat the butter and the sieved icing sugar together until they form a lovely soft icing. Put this into a piping bag and away you go.
I often make fairy cakes with my four year old daughter at the weekends. I believe it's important that children know where their food comes from and they have the ability to cook for themselves.
Rachel agreed and went on to talk about the importance of skills like baking being passed on from one generation to the next. If you teach someone to cook you are empowering them with an essential life skill.
Thank you Rachel, that's something you do really well.
Thanks to Rachel Allen for all her time and advice and to Amy from borrowedsalt.com for taking the photos of Rachel and me!

I'm writing this post with a heavy heart this morning. My little boy, my baby went on his first over night school trip only hours ago *sobs very loudly*
Apart from one sleepover with some close friends, he has never slept away from home ever and apart from when I was in hospital with Bruiser, I've never spent a night without him.
From the moment the trip was announced though he wanted to go and as the time drew nearer the excitement increased. Last night it was over flowing! He could barely eat his tea. Once he was bathed and ready for bed I helped him pack his case.
As expected he was up VERY early this morning. He came bouncing into our room before 6am saying 'ITS TODAY!!, can I go down and get ready?' After a quick cuddle, he did just that. In the time it took me to get up and come down stairs, he was dressed and sat with his case and bags waiting for breakfast! He barely ate anything though.
Before long he was good to go… excitement bursting out of him!
Off to school we went 🙂
It was an emotional farewell waving him off on the coach with his friends.
I know he's going to have a wonderful time. He will be taking part in Archery, Zip Lining, Orienteering, Treasure Hunts and he will be having his first Campfire in the evening!! I'm actually really excited for him. But im going to miss him soooo very much!
Im linking this post up from last week for #magicmoments
