Ran entrusted his body to Aya's chest as if his eyes are drawn to it by seductive temptations.
Ran's chest caresses Aya's nipple that's pointing upwards, the sweet feeling is like a nail scratching deeply.
The places Aya touch are so hot it's unbearable.
The penis that just ejaculated a while ago is swelling, just a small stimulation would make it ejaculate immediately.
「…Is it because of the bestowal magic I used a while ago?」
Physical type bestowal magic itself is an instant use body strengthening that can be used on anyoneーthe exhaustion vanishes, and the increase of stamina goes up quickly.
Though it's a convenient magic, it's not powerful to that extent.
The fuel economy is poor compared to Misuzu's unique magic – reinforced recovery magic, and unlike healing magic, it doesn't increase the natural healing power, so the scene it's used is quite limited.
It's mainly used on melee combat warriors and knights and swordsmen who take enemy's life with a whole body blow. Those who take only a moment to decide victory or defeat are those who use that magic.
Even as a mistake, it's not an obscene magic to make the genital that reached climax get erect once again.
That said, there are everyday occurrence of male prostitutes and aristocrats using the magic for immoral matters.
Therefore, the usage isn't bad in particular.
But as said earlier, it has bad fuel economy to make penises gain erection using bestowal magic.
If a healthy young man uses it for the last push, there's a huge amount of mana needed to energize the completely withered penis.
Therefore, Ran can only give minimum amount of bestowal magic to make his own penis erect.
Mikoshiba Aya's unique magicー with her Infinite Mana, it's meaningless.
「Fufu. Kirishima's penis is drenched with lewd liquids」
Aya stretched out her hand towards Ran's lower abdomen, then strokes the sensitive penis.
Persistently attacking around the glans, Ran's mouth leak out a sigh.
The sensitive penis is painted on semen and cowper fluid, Aya's fingers softly tightens. His waist instinctively pull out from the milking sensation.
「It's been twitching since earlier. So cute」
Playing with the twitching penis using her hand, Aya breathes heavily.
For Aya who's a virgin, it's her first time touching a raw penis, and it's also her first time hearing a boy's seductive sigh.
Aya's a high school girl too. She's interested in lewd things, she also want to have sex with a boy.
Every time she hears the joyous voice leaking out of Ran's mouth, Aya's stomach aches hotly.
Ran's voice, gesture, scentーeverything that's overflowing from the man in front of Aya arouses her.
As the penis grasped by her hand gets harder and hotter, Aya's expectations increases.
This lovely organ will stimulate Aya's vagina.
The depths of her vagina which her fingers can't go throughーthe cause of the heat and pain, deep in her womb would be hollowed with love.
Just thinking about it, Aya's vagina is ready to welcome the penis' intrusion
「Hyaa, D-Don't, Kirishima, that'sー!」
Ran mercilessly pressed his thighs to her drenched vagina.
Though she instinctively closed her thighs, her reason can't go against her instinct. How can you resist the act of being stimulated by the other sex's honey pot overflowing with love juice?
Feeling like she's melting from the sensation of the thighs pushed to her, Aya sprawled limply.
Spreading the slit that's sopping wet, it's waiting for Ran's stimulation impatiently. Pushing his thigh once again, Aya's body jumped up.
「No, you can't, Kirishima… Any more than this and I…」
「It's fine. Relax, take it easy」
With his gentle voice, Aya's body weakens.
Being this wet in front of a boy, what a shameless story.
Though tears float on her eyes, that droplet never fell. Becauseー
「Should I make you feel even better?」
「Fue?! More? Howーah! N-No! If you do that, hyauuuuuuu!!?」
Releasing his thighs from the heated crotch, a gentle feeling wraps her crotch instead.
The source is different but she can roughly imagine what is the object she's feeling. Because, Aya has done this act over and over since the past few days.
「It's wet enough that there should be no problems inserting.」
The man's index and ring finger goes straight and split the crack open.
The two fingers spread Aya's embarrassing part, andー
「Fua, aaaaaaa! I-if you put in your finger thereー H-Hyuuuuuuuun!?」
It's not herself. The pseudo penis that moves unrelated to her will plays with Aya's vagina.
'Also, what a gentle way of using fingers'
'Is he used to it?' He stirs exactly where Aya wants to be touched and the sweet feeling wears her vagina walls.
「Ah, aaah! Afu, fueeee Eh, Ehi, ehiiii… Hyaaaan!」
Leaking out a miserable panting voice, Aya grips the edge of the seat with both her hands.
The sweet nectar overflowing from her slit opened loosely doesn't stop.
For Aya who comforts herself every night, the stimulation from someone else is a reward for everything. Talking about desires, her true intention is to have an erect penis stir up her insides strongly.
Showing a melting face, Aya looks up at Ran's face wistfully.
'I want to do it. Though your fingers are good, I want to be stirred by that energetic penis. I want you to push and grind the entrance to my womb'
Plunge with that kind of feeling. Did Ran think of it? He gently blocked Aya's lips with his own.
「Nnnnnー! Nnnnnnnnn! Nnnnnn! Nnnー!」
Aya's body twitches as Ran closes her lips.
The waves of amazing pleasure she never felt before made Aya felt like screaming butーher mouth is tightly sealed that only muffled voice comes out.
Aya's vagina twitches as she raise a scream that doesn't come out.
Making a wet sound, Ran pulls out his fingertips from Aya.
Releasing the lips sealed, glaring over at Aya's still dreamy state, Ran lowers his gaze to her abdomen.
Ran admires the lewd bridge that goes from her slit to his fingertips, Ran loosens his cheek.
「Mikoshiba-san, you're quite sensitive」
Licking the tip of his fingers, he once again look at her face.
Aya who's drooling on her mouth and having tears in her eyes from too much pleasure, she looks up at Ran with feverish glance.
Her cheeks blush red from the lust, Mikoshiba Aya gasps exhausted.
Aya who reached climax from Ran's hand has entered the third Retainer stage early.
The mouth opened shamelessly in relief, the meaty breasts matching her breath, the slit that's twitching as it overflows with love nectar are all Ran's
Aya calls out Ran's name with a sweet voice that could tickle one's spine.
Showing an expression that she's not satisfied, wanting something, Aya crawls her fingers to her crotch. Breathing roughly, not letting her gaze away from Ran. Aya didn't hesitate and opened the most important part as a girl with her own fingers.
The love nectar drips from the opened vagina, it twitches every moment.
「I want you to violate me with that hard penis in here」
Looking at the vagina dripping wet wanting his penis, Ran stroked his own penis with his fingers.
In front of Ran is a classmate widening her crotch obscenelyーMikoshiba Aya's lying defenselessly.
Lying on her back wearing nothing, she stares at Ran with a sloppy expression.
Gulping his throat to the untouched salmon pink pussy, Ran softly brings his face close to Aya's crotch.
The smell of a girl is swallowed under his nose, he almost had nosebleed from the thickness of the scent.
The rough nasal breathing reaches Aya's thighs and he caress her inner thighs with a loving hand. Listening to the sweet voice in response to the contact, Ran puts the twitching girl part into his mouth and lick it with his tongue.
「Hyaaaaaaaaaaa! heaaa…Aaaafuu, nhyaaaaan!!」
Raising a scream that stirs up sadistic minds, Aya's vagina overflows love nectar like spring water.
Making splashing sounds with his tongue, Ran continues to attack Aya's important part.
What high sensitivity does this high school girl that's already been a third stage retainer.
After bullying her with his tongue to some extent, Ran let go of Aya's crotch.
A thread of light from mixed saliva and love nectar connects then eventually breaks.
After wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, Ran stares at Aya's face.
「D-Don't tease me, hurry up and put it in…」
As if trying to hide her melting face, Aya pins down her eyes with her plump arms, Aya breathes roughly.
Blushing cheeks, saliva dripping from the lovely mouth glimpse from her face.
「Hurry, Kirishima's penis, I want it to be deep inside…」
「Sure. But, before that」
Diverting his eyes away from the melting crack, Ran gazed at a point.
A part bit lower than Aya's face.
The healthy breasts firmly shaped moving up and down matching her breath.
'I've been interested in Aya's tits since in the former world. Aya who's normally a failure when it comes to sense of virtue, never opens up the buttons of her uniform. I don't mind if she wears a shirt inside during winter but, it's a sudden change when summer. The second buttonーin severe cases the third and fourth button are opened from her chest, Aya's colorful and stimulating bra and her cleavage shows without reserve, gathering the gaze of the adolescent men'
It's said that afternoon class without air conditioner is some kind of heaven. The uniform that becomes transparent due to the sweat makes the flashy light green or purple underwear show up, whenever she flaps around her chest not minding the gaze of the surrounding because of the heat, her collarbone to her breast area is exposed.
That said, Aya has common sense. She's not a slut nor an exhibitionist.
If you talk about the category of underwear glimpses occurring to the most gorgeous environment in the high school life, Aya's defenselessness creates various fuel dishes that stir up the delusion of young men.
But, that's only when a stiff high school girl guarding firmly her uniform.
The important parts of a woman such as nipples and vagina were never exposed even once.
Mikoshiba Aya's been stripped naked in the brains of the high school boys for many years but actually, this is her first time exposing her naked body to a male student.
Therefore, Ran seeing Aya's secret place hidden in her underwear is also a first time.
It's not his first time seeing a classmate's breasts but it's his first time seeing Aya's.
Well, it's already known but the healthy shape and the nipple pointing up, the skin damp with sweat is indeed charming.
Ran's a healthy boy.
Of course he's interested about girl's crotch but he's also interested in breasts.
Or rather, there's no other way but touching it.
「Mikoshiba-san's breasts are really big」
「B-Breasts? Hmm, well if you talk about size, then I'm quite confident about it」
Hauling her arms hiding her eyes, Aya raises her own breasts.
The nipples standing up pointing to the heaven and the breasts shook up emphasizes obscenity.
The pink nipple asserts it's own plumpness. Unable to endure the temptation to the gentleman, Ran covers on Aya without hesitation.
「F-Fua?! Kirishima's hot and hard thing, it's hitting」
Pushing his hard penis against Aya's slit, Ran glares at Aya's breasts while breathing roughly.
Are the tan lines due to the training wear? Her cherry buds on her breasts are slightly fairer compared to her arm and face. Emphasized by Aya's arms, it's obscenely pressed in front of Ran's eyes.
If he approach his face a bit more, the tip of her nipples would touch his nose.
The fragrant sweet milk drifts from her breasts, Ran's reason snaps off.
His classmate's breasts sway in front of him. And, an expression of lust of her classmate as she look at him as if wanting something.
Is there a male high school student who won't lose his reason if a female classmate is totally in heat?
「…Your breasts look deliciou」
「Fuee, fuaaaaaaa!? Heauuu… Wait…that's!」
Unable to endure the plump breasts meat, Ran jumps to Aya's breasts.
Stuffing his mouth with Aya's breasts, he continues licking the protruding part with his tongue.
Delicious. So Delicious. It doesn't actually have a sweet taste but the texture when putting it in his mouth is unbearable.
It's a young and healthy elastic breasts whose size isn't inferior to Kanami's breasts.
Then, he grinds the nipples inside his mouth.
Aya leaks out a cute voice every time he licks, it stimulates Ran's desire even further.
「Y-Yaaa! If you suck it that strongly, my breasts would come off!」
「Such a sensitive body… Mikoshiba-san, this isn't your first time, right?」
Sucking up her nipples, he then pinched the other nipple with his hand.
Looking at Aya who's convulsing as she scream voicelessly, he carefully massage Aya's breasts.
Kneading it with the palm of his hand, he stimulates the tip and twists it.
Massaging the right breasts with his hand, he licks and sucks the left with his mouth.
Reacting to each of the individual stimulation, Mikoshiba Aya twists her body as she raise a sweet voice.
Unable to endure that lewd reaction, Ran's sadistic mind gradually rises.
「I want to hear more of Mikoshiba-san's cute voice…」
「W-What do you meanーHyaaaaaan!?」
Around the entrance of her vagina, he presses the tip of his hot and hard penis.
He's not inserted it yet but Aya's mouth releases screams of pleasure.
This much reaction from just touching the tip. What would Aya show if he does more than this?
「Should I do as you said earlier?」
「…As earlier?」
Aya who's having a dreamy face and tears on her eyes got stunned then her face dyed red.
「You're going to violate that place…?」
「Hm, I won't know if you say "that place"」
Ran looks at Aya's face while pressing his penis against her hole.
「Mikoshibna-san, where do you want to be violated?」
「Like I said, that…」
Pouting her mouth, her cheeks dyes faintly.
Does it feel embarrassing saying the name of the part of her made to feel good to be prepared to welcome the penis?
「P-Please…violate my pussy!」
「Yup, of course」
Feeling arousal from her shout, Ran puts his hand on Aya's crotch.
Aya's melting vagina accepts the penis and it's pushed deep inside her.
「Fukyuuu, kuu, kuuun!」
Along with Aya's scream, her vagina walls undulate sweetly, it swallows Ran's penis deliciously.
Aya's face melts down as love nectar overflows from her widely spread crotch.
As he push his waist listening to Aya's lovely voice, an unbelievable phenomenon happens in front of Ran.
「ーAh, iiiiuuu!」
A sense of deja vu rises in Ran due to the sense of breaking something.
It might be different from the deja vu he felt butーthis is right.
The sense of discomfort Ran feels isn't when he pushed his penis.
There's another event that's happening now. That's what's important to Ran.
If it's just a sensation then it would be just Ran's misunderstanding.
But if he relies on the visual information in front of him, it won't be a misunderstanding anymore.
There's a heavy liquid that's spilling from the vagina hole that's swallowing his penis.
It's not love nectar. It has a color and it fell down her crotch, spilling on the sheets.
After burning his eyes of the liquid falling on the sheet, Ran looked at Aya again.
A cute brown and gold mix hair that's violating school regulations.
Tanned skin, long eyelashes, eyes that fascinates men without even doing anything. And a plump pouting pink lips.
The sweat running in her nape, the provocation length of her skirt that makes her panties give a glimpse as if tempting men, her abundant breasts shaking obscenely, waist showing an attractive line, and a violently plump thighs.
All of it creates an atmosphere that Mikoshiba Aya is an experienced slut.
Or rather, Aya makes herself look like such so boys can't leave their eyes from her.
With that as a cause, rumors of Aya being a slut has flowed to various places.
Ran heard that even those whose not in a friendly relationship with her, as long as he brings 30k yen at the back of school building, she'll give fellatio and sex.
「A virgin with this look, atmosphere, and sensitivity…? Seriously?」
This might be a bit of prejudice mixed in but, isn't the virgin Mikoshiba Aya an endangered species?
Ran's stunned as he has defiled an angel that has protected her virginity while having such appearance.
That said, he can think of this way as well.
Kirishima Ran took the first experience of the angel. She's different from the rumored person who just bangs anyone. Ran's the only male student who actually violated the school girl named Mikoshiba, both their minds and body are connected.
「…K-Kirishima. Why are you trembling?」
Everything would be a first experience for Aya.
First oral sex, first time she reached climax from Ran's hand, first time having a man suck on her boobs.
Ran's going to violate Aya and dye her in his color. All of it will be engraved deeply in Aya's heart as her first experience.
Thinking about it, it's such an arousing idea.
「It's fine. Then, I'm going to move okay?」
「Eh, it's already inー Hyaa, ah, auu…Nn Nneeyaaaa!?」
The penis that stopped it's piercing pushed even deeper.
The penis intrudes the vaginal wall seriously and it's chewed slowly without resisting.
Pushing the whole penis into Aya's vagina, he then turned his arms to her neck. Embracing Aya who's panting obscenely on top of the bed, Ran pressed his chest on Aya's breasts.
'Is it because of the sucking earlier? Aya's nipples is stiff' Every time the bud rubs against his chest, Aya's body twitches.
「Hyaaaa!? Aaaaaaaーー!? The tip of my nipples are rubbing, it feels good!」
Aya's thighs goes around and holds Ran's waist firmly.
Her plump elastic thighs presses against his waist and an exquisite soft comfort runs through.
「I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!」
Aya takes Ran's lips while tying her legs together.
A moist and plump lip clog Ran's a wet tongue enters his.
The coquettish tongue wets Ran's tongue, running through his teeth, licking it all over.
Ran also feels arousal from that passionate kiss.
「It felt so itchy, hot, aching deep in my stomach all this time… But doing this, it feels like a strange place is stirred up, it's good!」
Releasing her mouth, a thread of light connects Aya and Ran's lips.
Aya's face melts in pleasure as the bridge connecting their mouth breaks.
Her face blushes sensuously, her saliva's dripping down slovenly.
Aya who's aroused from the steam leaking out from the breath, she turns her arm around Ran and kisses him from the nape to his earlobe repeatedly.
「Mikoshiba-san…that tickles」
A sweet sigh wraps around the earlobe and his spine felt chills.
Making a wet sound, she licks the entrance of his ears. The slippery sensation runs through the entrance to the earlobe, the soft lip then bites Ran's ear.
Aya gives it love bites with only her lips, she releases her face from the ears and speaks amorously.
「I want you to call me Aya smoothly. Hey, fufu…」
Licking his cheeks, Aya then gaze straight to Ran's face.
The eyes painted in lust, expectation, love and pleasure are colored in bright pink
「What, Kirishima?」
Her eyes narrowed and her mouth smiled happily.
Thinking that it's a cute smile, Ran pats Aya's head gently
「I'm moving」
「Fuee?! W-Wait a momeー! I haven't prepared my mind yet, therefore…」
The stopped waist moves and the penis pushed in deep inside Aya.
The wet vagina is invaded without any resistance. 'I wonder if the sensation on the tip is Aya's uterus'
Earlier, Aya said that it's a place that's helplessly itchy.
「Does it feel good here?」
「Hyaaaaaaaaaan! T-There!! It's been aching all this time, wanting to be teased by someone!」
Leaking out a vulgar scream, Aya sticks her body to Ran boldly.
Aya's voice that stimulates men usually transforms to a much more obscene and fascinating voice.
A pleasant scream like her breath doesn't articulate fully.
Looking at the classmate showing an appearance from his act, Ran's arousal accelerates further.
「I'm going to pour in my hot semen inside Aya's pussy!」
「Fu-Fuaaaaaah…」 Kirishima's hot and thick semen…」
She looks at Ran with wistful eyes as the meat collides with each other.
Aya's already drunk in pleasure, she's unable to make a kiss or caress due to the movement of his waist.
Embracing Aya's body that became a doll, Ran pats Aya's back and neck.
Swallowed by the tremendous pleasure of having her uterus being violated, it seems she's feeling Ran's touch as well.
When he pats her back, a lovely voice leaks out from the mouth of Aya.
Like her heart is being caressed directly, Aya's lovely scream.
Listening to that voice, Ran stirs Aya's vagina continuously.
Ran's penis screams as if it's sweetly wrung by the vagina walls, his testicles are squeezed up.
「uu, Uaaa…! A-Aya! I-I'm going to cum!」
「C-Cum?ーF-Fuaaaaan! Kirishima's penis, the hot stuff…」
The pure white torrent is released from the tip of his penis. Pushed to the deepest part, the thick semen is poured inside Aya's womb.
「This is bad… It feels too good I can't stop」
His testicles swell up from the feeling it's being squeezed. The ejaculation rises up consecutively can't stop easily.
The more he ejaculates, the more the ejaculation feeling swells up. Is it because of bestowal magic? or is it because Aya's too lewdly cute?
Experiencing Aya's whole plump body, Ran falls down to her limply.
Ran whose white liquid is finally drained tosses himself and lied down next to Aya.
The penis hanging from his crotch then gets softer.
Aya who's lying down next to him breathes roughly while showing a satisfied expression.
Looking happily, She loosens her mouth.
'Is this the effect of bestowal magic?'
Thanks to the unrestricted energy due to Aya's infinite mana, it's possible to ejaculate to Aya this way.
Raising up his body, he take a look at Aya's crotch.
Aya's vagina hole where Ran just poured in his semen a while ago, there's a thick cloudy liquid dripping out.
Aya's spread out slit twitches pelasantly.
「Kirishima's penis feels sooo gooood…」
Showing a composed expression even though it's enchanted, Aya reached out for Ran's penis.
The sensitive penis that just ejaculated is wrapped in her soft hand.
His penis has withered but it's still unexpectedly energetic.
Just one ejaculation doesn't seem to be enough. ーIt's unknown whether it's a single shot because it's shot continuouslyー
With Aya's touch, Ran's penis got completely erect once again.
The testicles swells up, the penis caressed by Aya trembles pleasantly.
Even though he ejaculated that much, Ran's penis doesn't seem to be satisfied yet.
Thinking of her moderately tanned skin be shining with white semen, Ran hangs over Aya's body again.

A Random Walk Down Wall Street
A Random Walk Down Wall Street, written by Burton Gordon Malkiel, a Princeton economist, is a book on the subject of stock markets which popularized the random walk hypothesis. Malkiel argues that asset prices typically exhibit signs of random walk and that one cannot consistently outperform market averages. The book is frequently cited by those in favor of the efficient-market hypothesis. As of 2019, there have been twelve editions and over 1.5 million copies sold.[1] A practical popularization is The Random Walk Guide to Investing: Ten Rules for Financial Success.[2]
|Burton Malkiel
|United States
|W. W. Norton & Company, Inc.
Publication date
|456 pp.
|332.6 22
|LC Class
Investing techniquesEdit
Malkiel examines some popular investing techniques, including technical analysis and fundamental analysis, in light of academic research studies of these methods. Through detailed analysis, he notes significant flaws in both techniques, concluding that, for most investors, following these methods will produce inferior results compared to passive strategies.
Malkiel has a similar critique for methods of selecting actively managed mutual funds based upon past performance. He cites studies indicating that actively managed mutual funds vary greatly in their success rates over the long term, often underperforming in years following their success, thereby regressing toward the mean. Malkiel suggests that given the distribution of fund performances, it is statistically unlikely that an average investor would happen to select those few mutual funds which will outperform their benchmark index over the long term.
Alternative viewEdit
In 1984, Warren Buffett gave a speech at Columbia University rebutting the Efficient Market Hypothesis. See The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville. As of 2013, Malkiel has not yet responded and has ignored Buffett's argument. As Seth Klarman has stated: "Buffett's argument has never, to my knowledge, been addressed by the efficient-market theorists; they evidently prefer to continue to prove in theory what was refuted in practice".[citation needed]

Passion Project Update No. 2
November 10, 2015 Leave a comment
I guess this is where the proverbial rubber is supposed to be meeting the road, but to be truthful, I've skipped a couple opportunities to do some writing. I am disappointed in myself.
Over the weekend, I did have a small burst of activity and felt I was getting somewhere. I can't seem to get away from backstory that I feel is somewhat boring, but I added a little, along with some personality insights I felt were needed, in the form of a prologue. I know some writers and editors absolutely abhor prologues, but I reminded myself that THIS IS A DRAFT. I can add, delete and fix later. Must get it down.
This added to my word count a little and made me feel some better about moving forward, too. I actually left it in a good place.
Then Sunday rolled around, and I had to get some school stuff done. At the end of the day, I actually wanted to break up with my laptop. We needed time apart.
Yesterday, Monday, I was actually home at a decent time, and I knew I should have been writing. I knew that once I started, I'd probably get into it, enjoy it, and feel challenged. But my defiant alter ego was hanging out in my conscience, saying, "No. Just wanna snack, chill and TV." Even when the Powers That Be wouldn't allow my Internet to work well enough for Netflix to continue without buffering, I didn't take the hint. I kept trying to reload that episode of Glee. It was the one about a lock-down. Scary, seeing as how I work at a high school. Nevertheless, I didn't get to finish the show.
What did I do? Did I say, "OK, Powers That Be, I'll use this time to pursue my project, the one that I have chosen myself, the one that I am modeling for my students. The one where I write a novel in 30 days because I've always wanted to write a novel, and NaNoWriMo presents the perfect opportunity to try."
Went to bed at 7:30 with a book.
A book that someone else wrote.

It's a big night for Legacies.
Twins Josie (Kaylee Bryant) and Lizzie (Jenny Boyd) are turning 16 and throwing a giant party in their own honor (though let's be honest, it's mostly for Lizzie), which means everybody's all dressed up and on the hunt for the perfect date. For Hope, that perfect date just left on a bus to New Orleans in search of his mother, and she's losing it in a way we have never seen Hope lose it (seriously, watch the exclusive clip above). For Lizzie, that means going after Rafael (Peyton Alex Smith), and for Josie, that means trying not to step on her sister's toes while she also wants to date Rafael (who is, admittedly, extremely cute).
That slight rift between the sisters is made all the more complicated when they find out their mother, Caroline, isn't coming back to visit for their birthday, and then when they discover that their biological mother, Jo (Jodi Lynn O'Keefe), has returned from the dead. The hard life of a supernatural teen, man!

Upcoming Jumpstarts
No Upcoming Jumpstarts found
What is the Jumpstart Program like?
Designed for trainers and therapists
"Our introductory course is our Jumpstart Program. This course is designed for trainers and therapists that are working in the exercise environment. The program allows us to give a quick screening process to identify positional weaknesses and then through isometric contractions be able to restore strength through those positions of weakness and improve over all function and motion." – Greg Roskopf, MAT® Founder and Developer
Learn in Jumpstarts
- Background on the development of MAT® and its decades long history of helping people
- The Roskopf Principle and its focus on muscle contractile efficiency relative to limitations in Range of Motion.
- CAM® (Comparative Assessment of Mobility) testing to evaluate your client's mobility and compensation patterns.
- Isometric exercises to re-stimulate weak muscles for more efficient contraction
Opportunity with Jumpstarts
- Deliver beneficial services to your clients allowing you to charge accordingly for your services.
- See customers experience rapid improvements and experience their increased loyalty to your business.
- Starting in 2017, we are approved CEU providers for American Council of Exercise (ACE) and National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) for our Jumpstart Programs.
- Determine whether or not the brain is properly signaling to your muscles to contract when necessary
- Identify which muscles are not receiving neural input by performing range of motion tests
- Improve the stability of your joints by reactivating muscles and their ability to contract on demand
- Provide a checks and balances system to make sure that any time mobility is increased, there is appropriate input and therefore contraction during this motion
The school does not discriminate based on race, sex, religion, ethnic origin, or disability.
All Prospective students must be at least 18 years of age and at a minimum, have a High School Diploma. MAT® students will be required to sign a student waiver prior to the class beginning.

Sadly, the extremely dry conditions we endured all summer have continued, with less than 1 inch of scattered precipitation over the past month, and the garden is suffering. There are a few stalwarts in flower now, including golden lace (Patrinia scabiosifolia), goldenrods (Solidago), narrow-leaved ironweed (Vernonia lettermannii), purple Japanese burnet (Sanguisorba tenuifolia 'Purpurea'), and Japanese bush clover (Lespedeza thunbergii). The plants all look tired and droopy, though, and despite my best efforts, I just couldn't get any images that were worthy of taking up your time to view. So, I offer my apologies for this month, with hopes that maybe I'll have something for October, and encourage you to admire the efforts of the other participants in this month's main Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day post at May Dreams Gardens.

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day – August 2016
Despite chirpy assurances from area weather reporters that "everyone" in our region has repeatedly gotten soaking rains over the past month, a few of us, at least, have not shared in the bounty. Barely 1 inch of rain over the last 4 weeks, combined with an unusually dry June and July and long stretches of brutally hot weather, does not make for joyous gardening. To be honest, I was [this] close to simply skipping Bloom Day this month. Then this little guy changed my mind. Continue reading

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day – July 2016
Hot and dry have been two repeating themes over the past month, but it's midsummer now, so those factors aren't all that unusual. Several other appearances have been unexpected, though.

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day – June 2016
With so much going on in the garden this time of year, it would be easy enough to do a Bloom Day post every week without getting boring. I've limited myself to just the past 10 days for this once-a-month extravaganza, and there's still a lot to show, so let's get right to the good stuff, focusing first on what's in flower.
15 May
Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day – May 2016
After a speedy start, spring in our part of Pennsylvania has slowed considerably, due to several weeks of cool, damp weather. It's nice in a way, as the flowers that are opening are lasting a long time, and there's lots of lush new foliage to admire too–so much, in fact, that I'll try to keep the chat to a minimum and focus on the interesting stuff, beginning with the wild things. Continue reading

Matchmaking with Bulbs – Part 2
In Part 1 of Matchmaking with Bulbs, I covered some ways of choosing flowering and foliage partners to create beautiful combinations with bulbs. Another way to choose companions is consider them from a practical angle: plants that will look good when the bulbs aren't at their best, or that will support or protect slender bulb stems and blooms. Continue reading

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day – April 2016
I was all prepared to bemoan the wild weather extremes we've had over the past month, and how the timing of the plants is so far off normal, until I looked back through my previous April Bloom Day posts: 2009, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015. They provided a much-needed reminder that the only thing predictable about our weather this time of year is its unpredictability. So, I'll just accept that everything is as it's meant to be, plant-wise, and enjoy what looks lovely now.

Site: http://www.devlaundry.com
Please visit the new site and any feedback will be appreciated. I will move some of my blog entries over to the new site. Hope to see you on the new site!!!
When you are hit with a problem in SharePoint 2010 you get notified to use a correlation id to check for further details in the trace logs (ULS logs).
So you hopefully start up ULS Viewer and open up the relevant logs and search like a mad man after this specified correlation id. Sometimes you don't find the provided correlation id in the log file you opened. Is there a easier way?
Yes and that is to use the SharePoint PowerShell command Merge-SPLogFile. According to the description of Merge-SPLogFile on Microsoft TechNet:
"Combines trace log entries from all farm computers into a single log file on the local computer."
Let me explain how you can use this powerful command.
Lets visualise a simple farm.
As the example Farm image above we have two frontend servers, application server and database server. If I wanted to consolidated the last hour of SharePoint log entries from the front-end server and application server I would open up SharePoint Management Shell on one of the servers and type the following command:
Merge-SPLogFile –Path "E:\SPLogs\MergedLogs.log" –Overwrite
Now that was a very basic example to merge the various servers log files. More parameters are available on the Microsoft TechNet article for Merge-SPLogFile. For example Area, Category, Level, Message, StartTime, EndTime and more.
What the following example show is how to find the log entries for a specific correlation id:
Merge-SPLogFile –Path "S:\SPLogs\MergedLogs.log" –Correlation 3ae2a6c0-da14-43a1-afda-5bb6bbff3d43 -Overwrite
Since the log files are merged with just the specified correlation id you can load the log file in ULS Viewer to easily view the entries. Please be aware that the log can be empty if the logging level is set to low for the SharePoint category. Just go to SharePoint Central Administration to increase the logging level.
As you can see in the image above the correlation id has 19 matching entries in the log file. Much less log entries to scroll through.
I hope this helps you on finding SharePoint errors quicker and easier. Let me know what your favourite commands and tools are for debugging SharePoint.
As of SQL Server 2012 it is easier to slipstream the latest service packs and cumulative updates to create new SQL Server installations. It is a slow process to first install SQL Server and then apply the latest updates afterwards.
The usual approach to slipstream SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2 has been documented on MSDN blogs where you needed to download update packages for all architectures and extract to a directory and copy over to the original SQL Server Setup files. Make changes to the configuration files to specify the updates and then proceed with the installation of SQL Server. It was basically allot of steps to do.
Microsoft decided to change the way updates are applied with SQL Server 2012 installations. The new approach is much better. The change is documented on MSDN article about "Deprecated SQL Server Features of SQL Server 2012".
The steps is as follow. Download the latest cumulative update for example CU2 for SQL Server 2012. Then you need to run the downloaded file to extract to a directory C:\SQLUpdates for example.
The CU2 download filename is "449398_intl_x64_2012_SQL_CU2.exe" and when you run the file it exact an file with the name "SQLServer2012-KB2703275-x64.exe". You do not have to extract the the file again.
Now open command prompt and navigate to the original SQL Server 2012 setup files. In command prompt type the following command to start the setup:
Setup.exe /Action=Install /UpdateEnabled=TRUE /UpdateSource="C:\SQLUpdates"
The additional parameters are self explanatory, but lets go through them:
After running the command you will see the default install screens for SQL Server 2012. After the setup checks screens you will see the Product Updates screen that list available updates in the specified directory.
That is basically it. The SQL Server Setup will only use the updates that are available in the specified directory and automatically extract them. You don't have to download all the available architectures, just the ones that you need.
In summary you can see that the new approach is much easier than before. You can still use the ConfigurationFile.ini and DefaultSetup.ini to specify available updates as well. I hope this change encourage you to always stay up to date with the latest service packs and cumulative updates as they come out.
I was busy setting up a new VM with SQL Server 2012 with the latest cumulative update (Build: 11.0.2325.0) and all the features enabled for installation. On the end of the installation summary page it show that SQL Server Analysis Services failed. The installation did install the Analysis Service but viewing the SQL Server Services in SQL Server Configuration Manager it show the Analysis Service did not start, that is why the installation show failed.
I went and look into Windows Application Event Viewer for further details and the following error has been logged:
Message-handling subsystem: The message manager for the default locale cannot be found.
The locale will be changed to US English. Message-handling subsystem: The message manager for the default locale cannot be found. The locale will be changed to US English. File system error: The following error occurred during a file operation: Access is denied. . (\\?\E:\Data\CryptKey.bin).
At first I thought there is some server locale issue. As you can see at the end of the message there is an "Access is denied" issue. Which is related to permissions to some resource. To understand why I get this error I need to explain my server setup.
The newly created VM has a C drive and an additional E drive. As you know the C drive is for OS and program files. The E drive is where I put all the SQL Server databases files and folders. On the E drive I created the following directory structure:
For each SQL Server Service I create dedicated accounts:
You get the picture. Now back to the "Access is denied" error. I had to give the SQL Analysis Service account write access on E:\Data and E:\Logs directory and then the SQL Analysis service started up successfully.
In summary if you create your own service accounts and have your own predefined folder structure you can get permission errors from SQL Server. Always keep your eye on Windows Application Event Viewer to see any SQL Server permission errors and give the right permissions to each service account.
I had a issue with SQL Server Agent Service that cannot start up after creating a new clean installation of SQL Server 2012 with the latest cumulative update (Build: 11.0.2325.0). My first step was to look at trusty old Windows Application Event Viewer to see what messages get logged when I try to start the SQL Server Agent Service.
In Windows Application Event Viewer the following error message is logged:
OpenSQLServerInstanceRegKey:GetRegKeyAccessMask failed (reason 2).
The problem is that the default account that is created by the SQL Server installation that is used by the SQL Server Agent Service does not have the correct permissions.
The easy solution is to use the SQL Server Configuration Manager to change the SQL Agent Service account to Local Service and then the SQL Agent Service will start up successfully.
My preferred approach is to create a dedicated domain account for example: sql_agent_service. Assign this account to the SQL Agent Service via SQL Server Configuration Manager. When you start the SQL Agent Service you will see that the service start up successfully.
If you go back and view the Windows Application Event Viewer you will see the error again, but additional messages are logged where an advance configuration setting has been automatically changed in SQL Server 2012. The Agent XPs configuration option has been enabled which allows the Agent Service to start up successfully.
To make sure the error is gone, clear the Windows Application Event Viewer. Stop and start the SQL Server Agent Service and make sure there are no errors logged again.
By default the advance Agent XPs configuration option is disabled on new installations. You should enable it to make sure the SQL Agent Service work correctly.
Here is the TSQL to enable Agent XPs manually:
sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
sp_configure 'Agent XPs', 1;
In summary you should define dedicated accounts for each SQL Server Service up front before you install SQL Server 2012. This will allow you to know which account has permission issues when a SQL Server service cannot start up successfully. Always keep your eye on the Windows Application Event Viewer for SQL Server errors!
Virtualization of SQL Server these days are becoming more a reality and common practice. Usually if you you mention SQL Server and Virtualization in one sentence people will look at you as if you are a mad man.
With this post I would like to talk about a couple of notes you need to consider when you virtualize SQL Server. When using a hypervisor to consolidate your SQL Servers into a virtualization environment you need to think about the impact on CPU, Memory, Storage and Network performance and management.
Let's break it a bit down further with some checkpoint.
These checkpoints are some of the common practices to follow when setting up SQL Server in a virtualization environment. Virtualization setup comes down to what you can afford and what your business requirements are.
The key areas to successful deployments are:
Microsoft Hyper-V
The Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor does have its own best practices for deploying SQL Server. One feature that you should try and avoid is dynamic memory. You should always use static memory assignment for SQL Server virtual machines.
Here are some documents to review if you are going to use Microsoft Hyper-V.
VMware vSphere
The VVMware vSphere hypervisor has its own best practices for deploying SQL Server. A very nice feature that vSphere has is memory compression. This feature is where multiple pages in memory that are the same is removed from memory. Only keeping one copy in memory. This is a great benefit for Operating System pages in memory, but no real benefit specifically towards SQL Server.
Here are some documents to review if you are going to use VMware vSphere.
On the end there are allot of guidance from the individual vendors for optimal deployment of SQL Server in an virtualization environment. There are many benefits like cost savings and management in using virtualization. I would really recommend that you try setup a test environment to see the benefits.
Performance is always a concern, but at the rate at which hardware performance are increasing the little bit of performance impact you experience right now with virtualization will be a thing of the past with new hardware. Especially with enterprise SSD disk drives that are coming out at a good price.
One person that I follow that provides brilliant content on SQL Server virtualization is Brent Ozar. He has many articles and videos on virtualization.
If you have any comment or questions about SQL Server virtualization please feel free to contact me.
Today is the start of a very exciting and challenging journey to become a Microsoft Certified Master on SQL Server 2008. This post is about my planning on achieving the certification.
The Motivation
Over the years I have worked in various environments that involved development with SharePoint, BizTalk, Integration, Web and custom development. All of them had one thing in common and that is they all use SQL Server. I always enjoy and have allot of passion working within SQL Server. Always learning the little bits about the ins and outs of SQL Server is fun. Working with SQL Server all over the years came to a point that I ask myself how can I improve myself to be better at what I do and know. That has put my focus on achieving the Microsoft Certified Master on SQL Server 2008.
The Schedule
How am I going to achieve this and by when? My personal schedule is to write the MCM on SQL Server Knowledge Exam in the first week of May 2012. If I pass that exam then it will onto the MCM on SQL Server Lab exam. From today it leaves me with roughly 3 months for studying.
As mentioned by other MCMs that studying alone is not enough. You do need years of experience working with SQL Server.
The Resources
Where are the resources? There are various books, whitepapers and blogs that needs to be studied that will help with the exams. On the official page and from SQLskills.com you get links to the recommended resources. There are also training programs available that can be attended for preparation to the Microsoft Certified Master on SQL Server 2008 exams.
The OneNote
There are so many resources available on the internet that it can be a big tasks to get these resource organized. I took the time in my planning to organise the resources into a Microsoft OneNote document. You can download it from here.
The OneNote document is divided into sections namely:
The videos section includes the links to the recommended readiness videos for Microsoft Certified Master on SQL Server 2008. The Stairways Series section is links the various topics about SQL Server that is provided by SQLServerCentral.com. The Books section has links to the recommended books for reading. The White Papers section are the whitepapers that must be read for the exams. The Blogs section is links to some additional reading for the exam. Lastly the SQLskills Training section has been broken down to sub sections with the various resources links that is mentioned on SQLskills MCM page.
If you are also going to do the Microsoft Certified Master on SQL Server 2008 exams I hope this document can help you on your journey. Also if you find resources that I might have missed let me know and I will update the document.
Again here is the full link to the document: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4406115/MCM%20SQL/SQL%20MCM%20Training.one
In conclusion as I mentioned in the beginning of this post, it is going to be a very exciting and challenging journey to be come a Microsoft Certified Master on SQL Server 2008. I will continue to put up posts as my learning progresses on the topics of SQL Server. For those who also attempting these exams as well, best of luck and see you at the other end.

Camp Registration Policies
Fee for half-day camps: $175 (NCC members $165)*
Fee for full-day camps: $315 (NCC members $295)*
*Unless otherwise noted, member rate applies only to children registered as members.
Register online or by phone (612.339.8007) beginning at 10 am on February 6.
Age and Ability Restrictions
We work closely with instructors to develop optimal age ranges and ability levels for each class. At the time their camp begins, children must have reached the minimum age and ability level indicated. In order to ensure the success of our classes, we ask that you observe these restrictions when registering your children for camps. NCC makes NO exceptions to the ages or ability levels indicated in the descriptions.
When registering online, if you register your child for the wrong age group, the registration will be canceled and we will contact you via phone to secure your second choice. If you have questions regarding the age ranges for a camp, please call Northern Clay Center at 612.339.8007 to register.
Drop off / Pick up
Caregivers should drop off and pick up their children at the northwest entrance to the Clay Center. Please do not drop your child off too early (no more than 5 minutes before class time); pick up your child promptly at the end of class. NCC does not provide day care or supervision before or after camps. There is free parking on the west side of our building. Caregivers must provide supervision from noon to 1 pm to children registered for separate morning & afternoon classes during the same week; NCC will provide supervision during lunch for full-day classes.
Snack Break
Campers take a short break every day, so please pack a snack for your child and label the bag with his/her name. Caregivers need to supply lunches and snacks for children in full-day classes. Please note: NCC's facility is NOT peanut free. Please notify us 3 weeks in advance if your child has special dietary issues that would affect the other campers and we will do our best to notify other parents of the issue.
What to Wear and Bring
Kids may get messy, so make sure your child wears appropriate clothing and footwear (sneakers are best; no open-toed shoes.) For all camps, kids must bring a reusable tote to hold finished projects. We recommend canvas or nylon, roughly the size of a grocery bag. For wheel classes, we suggest, but do not require a one-quart bucket (such as a yogurt container) and an old towel.
Completed Projects
Completed projects may be picked up one week after your camp ends; we will NOT call you when they are ready. We strongly recommend that you bring your child with you to help identify what s/he made. Projects left more than 4 weeks after the camp ends will be discarded. If you cannot pick up your child's projects by this date, please make arrangements for someone else to pick them up.
Product Output Expectations
Your children will be encouraged to create several pieces of clay art during class. You can anticipate your child having at least 4 completed works. Please make note: not all camps result in the same number of objects for campers to take home. Several camps are focused on ideas of production, while others are more experiential in nature, or require a longer investment of time and energy into more complicated wares and objects. Regardless of output, ALL of our camps aim to create a positive and memorable experience for your camper.
Instructors and Class Content
All instructor listings are subject to change. Students can expect to make new work Monday through Thursday and spend Friday glazing. By the very nature of the material and the short tenure of these camps, some projects will not be glaze fired, but "once-fired" instead, rendering them decorative in nature and not for use to consume food or beverages. Class periods will include time for cleanup, an integral part of the process. Class descriptions are subject to change depending on ability levels of participating students.
Other Information
Please Note: Due to the very nature of clay and the firing process, NCC cannot be responsible for any damage to work caused by poor construction or the firing or glazing processes.
NCC has a small number of partial scholarships for children, awarded on a need basis. Application forms can be downloaded here or call 612.339.8007.
Special Needs
Signed interpretation is available for any camp. Please call the Center to request an interpreter at least three weeks in advance. NCC's building is wheelchair accessible and is equipped with a wheelchair accessible potter's wheel. The information in this brochure is available in large-print format upon request. To contact us via the Minnesota Relay Service, please call 1.800.627.3529.
Registration Information
Tuition must be paid in full to hold your reservation. NCC will make absolutely no exceptions to age ranges indicated in camp descriptions.
To register: Register for your child's class online; visit NCC during business hours, TWFSa, 10 am – 6 pm; Th, 10 am – 7 pm; Su, 12 – 4 pm; or call 612.339.8007.

Molly's Diary: 8 Things About Me
JanieBelle, precocious troublemaker I adore, tagged me in this silly meme, but hey, you don't know much about me yet, so why not play along. Here's the rules:
*We have to post these rules before we give you the facts.
* Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
* People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
* Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
I'm changing this a bit — what a surprise! These are not 8 random things, but rather 8 things I've learned about myself since starting this blog:
1. I don't know 8 people with blogs, so I won't be able to follow the instructions.
2. I actually follow instructions more often than you might guess.
3. Creative erotic energy comes over me in sort of violent waves, like tides under the effect of the spring flood full moon.
4. I get very cranky very quickly if I want to have sexy naked pictures taken of me but don't get clear direction about how to pose. (Read: I'm not always so great at figuring it out by myself!) When taking nature photos I fully expect to have to take lots of shots to make sure I get the good ones I want, but yet I have a low tolerance for any awkward looking naked pictures of myself.
5. Sometimes I dream about being Edna St. Vincent Millay. I had not, before writing this blog, identified very much as someone with a poetic sensibility. But writing some of these posts has got me thinking otherwise.
6. I look much girlier than I am. Before starting the blog I didn't realize quite how girly I look sometimes!)
7. One of my favorite things about JanieBelle is her claim to be without sexual orientation.
8. Sometimes I wish I could show my face on this blog.
A bonus: I like to break the rules even though I usually follow instructions. I'm not going to tag anybody this time around.

Grape + Bean focuses on smaller, more independent producers making great hand crafted wines. We offer close to 200 hundred different labels and we're growing our inventory every day.
We research and hand-select all of the wines so we can continue to offer unique, interesting, and good value wines to our customers. We know our inventory well and can assist you in finding what you want and hopefully turn you on to some wines you've never experienced before.
And..in addition to our great wine selection, we offer dozens of handcrafted and even hard to find artisanal beers.
At the Wine Bar, we feature a great line-up of wines by the glass that pair wonderfully with our menu of small and large plates. Also be sure to stop by on Wednesday or Thursday where we feature special Wine Flights-- it's great to try a selection of wines we hand pick (you can't go wrong) and we change them up every week!
And...if you enjoy what you taste, you can always take a bottle or two to go--the benefits of being both a Wine Bar and a Wine shop!
Grape + Bean recently kicked off its series of Wine Tasting events where we taste several wines and paired foods and learn and sip in a fun and informal atmosphere. Sign up for the newsletter to get regular info and check the Events page regularly.
Grape + Bean offers unique offering of artisinal cheeses, meats including delicious salumis and pates, and other gourmet products like olives and nuts from around the world.
We are committed to providing high quality products which is why we hand select every item based on our own research, tastings, and experience. Most of our offerings are available both at the Wine Bar and for retail purchase.
Wine + Tasting Bar
At the Wine Bar, you can sit and enjoy wine by the glass and small and large plates alike including a beautiful selection of cheese and charcuterie plates, fresh, (organic where we can) salads, sandwiches, crostinis, and seasonal produce. The wine bar is a great spot for a dinner or a late lunch and the menu is perfect for sharing or come solo--we're happy to have you there.
People come for the great cheese, meat, nuts, olives and other goodies but if you haven't tried our breads (and home made crackers), we think you're missing out. Baguettes, Ciabatta, Olive bread, Focaccia, and so on, our breads are handmade daily by Nathan Hatfield at Restaurant Eve.
All breads can be special ordered with 24 hours notice. We also offer Gluten Free bread, available by advance order only-you won't be disappointed.
For Wine lovers, coffee lovers, cheese lovers, and the list goes on-- we have something for most oenophiles and foodies out there-- and there's always a Grape + Bean gift certificate for use at the Wine Bar or for any retail products.
Grape + Bean also provides specialty gift baskets, boxes, and buckets of all shapes and sizes, great for holiday, personal and corporate gifts alike. Stop by and look at some of special creations or we can work with you. We can create any combination of Grape + Bean products to match your preference and your budget.
Ask us about some of our most popular gift ideas including our very special Salt Cellars, Wine Party in Box, the Wine and Coffee Lovers baskets, the Single Origin baskets, and Wine Chillers (6 and 12 bottles) fully stocked!

While there are many worthy places to visit and things to do in Russia, there is a splendor unlike any other in St Petersburg. Founded by Peter the Great, this was the country's imperial capital.
It also follows that many of Russia's cultural attractions are found in the city, and there are loads of them to enjoy. But it's not just culture that can be savored in St Petersburg, it's also packed with cafes, restaurants, and parks. Plus, the nightlife isn't too shabby either.
But with lots to do and see with so little time, how can one manage to get a taste of the city? Here are top 5 things to do in St Petersburg:
Top 5 things to do in St Petersburg, Russia
Go for a walk
Joseph Brodsky once wrote, "In his youth, at least, a man born in this city spends as much time on foot as any good Bedouin." The reason is not for lack of transportation or fare price; it's that St Petersburg demands to be seen on foot.
There are different ways to approach a St Petersburg walking tour. You can either start your stroll at the magnificent St Isaac's Cathedral or go on a themed tour. For instance, lovers of literature can follow the footsteps of Fyodor Dostoyevsky by exploring the downtown area.
Dedicate a day to culture
So much has happened in St Petersburg and remnants of a glorious past still remain. One of the best ways to get a cultural appreciation for Russia as well as the rest of the world is to visit the State Hermitage Museum.
Since it would be impossible to see everything that is there in just a few hours (there are around 400 rooms covering over three floors across five buildings), here are a few tips to make the most of it:
Buy a ticket through the website ( Sightseeing and activities in St Petersburg). It will be so much more expensive but you'll also avoid the queue. If you can spare the time, get the two-day ticket for maximum viewing pleasure.
View the collections by floor. You are bound to get lost, but that's part of the fun and frustration of visiting such a large building. Antiquities are on the ground floor while the other two are dedicated to European paintings.
Accept that you will miss out on some collections. Unless you have a week or a month to spare, you won't see everything that's housed in the Hermitage. But if you have specific works of art you want to see, you can make a list of that and check the maps to head there directly.
Drink like a local
Head to the Dead Poets Bar to take a sip of more than 80 whiskeys from different countries. Food is also an offer as are occasional cultural events. You may also try Vodka after all, when you think of Russia you think of Vodka.
Visit a church or two
St Isaac's Cathedral is not only a stunning structure; you can also climb the colonnade to get a view of the city.
Don't be afraid to go the unusual route
Churches, parks, and museum visits are pretty common tourist-y things to do. Why not try something different for a change? A visit to the Russian Vodka Museum might be fun. You might also want to see the place where Rasputin was murdered. Or, you can check out a museum dedicated to hygiene.
St Petersburg has a lot to offer, and it sadly can't be experienced in just a short time. But with the ideas listed above, you can get a taste of what the city is like.

Considerable experimental work has been done in pre-exposure immunization of humans against rabies in recent years (1-8). However, because human rabies is rare in this country and exposure to it relatively uncommon, knowledge and experience of pre-exposure vaccination have been restricted predominantly to large centers of rabies control and to practitioners of veterinary medicine. Inherent in the procedure is proof of antibody response by the standard serum neutralization test, since some individuals cannot be protected successfully regardless of the immunization schedule and others require more than the usual number of booster doses to provoke detectable serum neutralizing antibodies.

PPC Ad Types
Paid Search Ads
Paid Search is the cornerstone of PPC advertising. Search allows your potential customers to find what they want, when they want it. Through Paid Search, you have the opportunity to show your ads on top of and along side search results at all the major search engines. With proper keywords, ads and targeting you can connect your business with the world.
Is Paid Search Right for Your Business?
Paid search is a powerful and complex advertising option, and a must for many businesses. For some, it's all that is needed, and for others it's only a part of their overall PPC strategy. Done right it can bring sales to a level never thought possible. To find out if paid search is right for you, we recommend reaching out to our team to talk about the specifics of your business.
How Can JumpFly Help with Paid Search?
Paid Search is where PPC all started, and PPC is all we do. We have the best team in the industry and look forward to working with you. If you are a current PPC veteran, or you are considering Paid Search for the first time, please reach out and talk with our team. Proper management is the difference between success and failure.
What Do Paid Search Ads Look Like?
Paid Search ads are text ads found on top, on the side, and below organic or natural search results.
Display Advertising
Display Advertising lets you place ads across a vast variety of the Internet to connect with potential customers. Display covers it all, sites both large and small. Display accepts all types of ads – text, image, interactive and video ads. Once you create your ads you can choose from many options to best place those ads on websites that are relevant to your business goals.
Is Display Advertising Right for Your Business?
Display advertising can be a very powerful part of a successful PPC strategy. Some businesses will strive more than others with Display, but using best practices will help target success from the start while avoiding fishing in an empty sea. If we determine your business is right for Display Advertising, it can be a vast opportunity to grow your PPC exposure.
How Can JumpFly Help with Display Advertising?
Display Advertising is advanced and risky. Much can be made or broken by your strategy and management. Display needs a solid plan and structure, as well as constant monitoring and adjusting for success. We will bring the necessary experience needed to build a proper Display campaign to meet your goals.
Where Can Display Ads Be Found?
Display ads are found all over the Internet. Sites both large and small tap into Display advertising to earn money from the networks at Google and Bing. Below is a sample of some of the more well known sites that your ads may be found.
What Do Display Ads Look Like?
Display ads come in all shapes and sizes…images, text, video, media rich images and more. Below are a few examples of some basic image ads you may find while surfing the Internet.
Remarketing is a powerful feature that lets you capture people who have previously visited your site as an advertising audience. You can then show your audiences ads for your business as they surf across the web. If you ever felt "stalked" while you surf the web by ads from businesses you visit online – this is Remarketing. We find that connecting with your previous visitors over and over again proves to be an exceptional advertising tool.
Is Remarketing Right for My Business?
Remarketing is part of the right strategy for almost any business. Not only are you able to target visitors acquired through your PPC advertising efforts, but Remarketing also allows you to capture and show ads to those that have visited your website from everywhere else as well. For example, if you direct people to your website from a trade show, television ad or your showroom, you can now reach those visitors with your ads as they surf the internet. Radically improve ROI by presenting your visitors with highly relevant ads across the Web ensuring your brand is top of mind when they're ready to buy.
How Can JumpFly Help Me with Remarketing?
Both Google and Bing offer tools for Remarketing, and they can be quite complicated. Setting up the proper audiences and ads required to achieve the best ROI requires a well thought through strategy for each of our clients. As a portion of your overall PPC strategy, we will implement and maintain a perfect Remarketing plan for your business.
How Remarketing Works:
Shopping / Product Ads
Are Product Listing Ads Right for Your Business?
If you are using a Google Merchant Feed or Bing Shopping to promote your products, Product Listing Ads are for you. Any e-commerce based business should highly consider exposure through Product Listing Ads as our clients often see a high rate of return.
How Can JumpFly Help with Product Listing Ads?
Product Listing ads are new and changing constantly. Google, Yahoo! and Bing are all offering different ways for you to list your product feed into their search and shopping results. We make sure you are taking advantage of all the best ways to setup and maintain each platform to meet your goals. We are fully trained and ready to help you take full advantage of your Product Listing Ad opportunity.
What Do Product Listing Ads Look Like?
Product Listing Ads are found in the search results when people search for products at Google, Yahoo! and Bing. Below is an example:
Local and Geographical Targeting
Local and geographical targeting are essential tools for many businesses to use PPC advertising properly. Location targeting allows your ads to appear in the geographic locations that you choose: countries, states, cities, metro area, zip codes, or a radius around a location are all examples of location targeting.
Is Location Targeting Right for Your Business?
Location targeting helps you focus your advertising on the areas where you'll find the right customers, and restrict it in areas where you don't, which helps increase your return on investment as a result. "Location, location, location!" – Regardless of how great your ad is, it probably won't perform as well if it doesn't appear in the right places. Reach your customers where they are and where your business can serve them by using Location targeting.
How Can JumpFly Help with Location Targeting?
When using location targeting, it is essential to get right. The geographical targeting options and tools can be tricky if you are unfamiliar. We make sure to understand your business and your goals to ensure we use these tools to their full potential by only targeting those you are trying to reach. When working with us, your geographic settings will be fully discussed and implemented as needed to achieve the best results each and every month. Location targeting also offers unique ways to better target your potential clients. For example, it will allow you to bid more to gain higher exposure for clients from a high margin location vs. others that may not be as desirable. Used properly Location Targeting is a highly effective tool offered by Google and Bing.
Mobile Advertising
Connect with your customers on the move with mobile advertising. Mobile ads can be found in search results, content websites and in apps. Use them to put your business in front of people as they use their phones and tablets throughout the day.
Are Mobile Ads Right for Your Business?
Using mobile ads can be an effective strategy for the right business. More than ever people are using their smartphones and tablets to find what they need, and thinking through a mobile strategy can not be ignored. Since each business is different, mobile ad strategies are going to be unique from client to client to ensure maximum ROI from mobile ads.
How Can JumpFly Help with Mobile Ads?
Mobile advertising is very complex. With search, content and in-app ads, there is a lot to consider with choosing to use mobile ads. We will look at your business and specific goals and resources to come up with a sound mobile plan of attack. With so many options, our team will ensure we are getting the most out of your mobile advertising investment. Talk with us to make sure mobile targeting is doing all it can for you.

Drones are a cool annoyance. They allow people to take cool videos and photos, but they invade airspace and can also violate people's privacy. While drones are controlled by a remote control, they also have vocal command capabilities. Cisco Blogs shares that speech-controlled drones are on the rise in the post, "Speech-Controlled Drones And Bots For Enterprise." Most of the information on the Internet about speech-enabled drones is for individual hobby enthusiasts, but Cisco is working on building enterprise capable drones and incorporates it into its Autonomous Systems Application Platform.
Cisco is aware that the market is fresh for drones that are compatible with enterprise security, reliability, and scalability that will respond to voice and gesture to commands. Visit the link to the article and you will see a chart that explains how enterprise drones could work:
Cisco's Karan Sheth collaborated with Built.io's Nishant Patel and team to create a collection of enterprise-class, speech-controlled bots. As described in the diagram above, a user's arbitrary speech or Spark commands were delivered to Cisco's private cloud environment over Built.io's cloud and secure enterprise gateway infrastructure. Once inside the secure infrastructure, even the smallest of hardware like Raspberry Pi could execute intended workflow commands without worrying about security or access control.
The same probable workflow would also work for sensors, robots, workflows, scripts, and other AI tools. An interchangeable network that can be tooled for any new voice-enabled tool, including the new Amazon Alexa and Google Home, is opening a whole new market of possibilities for people to work and interact with their environments.
