Columbus native and former Brookstone graduate, Jim Whitehurst, is the Chief Executive Officer and President of Red Hat, Inc. the world's first billion dollar open source software company.
By Roberto Caligaris
You were one of the youngest COOs at Delta Air Lines, how was that experience for you? Looking back on it, I'm amazed they let me do it. I was 35 years old and the company was heading toward bankruptcy. However, working through that crisis has proven to be one of the most rewarding professional experiences I've ever had. I had the opportunity to learn what it takes to be a leader, to really guide and influence a company in a difficult time. But more than that, to watch people ban together during such a trying time to save an important institution in the South, to be a part of that, was something I'll never forget. We refused to let Delta fail on our watch. Even today, I'm so proud of how all of us handled that situation. It really showed me what's possible when people rally behind a common purpose and goal.
You are currently the President and CEO of Red Hat, the world's first billion-dollar open source company. How did you start up the company, and who are some of the companies who use your product? Bob Young and Marc Ewing originally founded Red Hat in 1993. When I joined in 2008, annual revenue was around $400 million. And if all goes according to plan, we will surpass the two billion dollar mark next year. Not everyone has heard of Red Hat, but you're most likely using our technology every day. Our products power airline systems, banking networks, and underlie the majority of stock market equity trades. We count more than 90 percent of the Fortune 500 as customers as well as influential organizations such as Dream- Works, Sprint, and the New York Stock Exchange. We're apart of the S&P 500, have close to 8,000 associates world, and were named one of the most innovative companies in the world by Forbes in 2015.
You have given many talks, including a TED talk, about the tech future and economic side. How important is this issue for those working in building new technology or investing? It's hard to predict exactly how technology will impact business and society. But those that figure it out have an opportunity to build extraordinary businesses. For me, I already lead an extraordinary business. I am interested in this issue because I think technology has the potential to make the world a much better place. But that requires that leaders in many areas like business, government, and academia to carefully consider its impacts and steward their own organizations appropriately. My interest is more about making the world a better place for my kids and those who come after us. It's a great privilege to be in a position to have at least a tiny bit of influence over that.
Is America still the land of opportunity? Absolutely. I have an opportunity to travel around the world every year. And while many other countries are building their own economic structures that create opportunities, I still believe the combination of the best legal system in the world, the strongest capital markets, fantastic universities, and a culture that tolerates – and even celebrates – risk-taking still makes America the best place for anyone to get ahead. That said, I do worry that too much money in politics, a tax system full of loopholes, and poor performing CEOs getting paid millions makes many people think the system is "rigged." In some ways it is. That's a major issue we need to address.
What's something you miss about the South the most? Since I live in North Carolina, I think I still live in the South! It's a little different. The North Carolina BBQ can't compare, and the accent is a little off. Seriously, I think I benefited greatly from growing up in a town the size of Columbus. I think, or at least I hope, that I'm still a grounded person with strong values that I came from growing up in a community like Columbus. Durham, NC, where my family and I now live, is a bit bigger, but not much. And I am very happy to be able to raise my kids in a small city like that. svm

Today in History: First Free Flight
You might have noticed that the Everett Cafe has been featuring news displays about space travel since the launch of the Mars Mission, An Out-of-This-World Introduction to the Smith Learning Theater? We have Sputnik; Apollo 8; and, today in history, First Free Flight — events commemorating major American scientific achievements, with educational applications.
Did you know that Navy Captain Bruce McCandless became the first astronaut to fly without a rope or chain, in space? On February 7, 1984, McCandless exited the U.S. space shuttle, The Challenger, then on its fourth orbital mission, wearing a self-designed, white, jet-powered backpack that allowed him to see Earth most freely. He re-entered the craft some 90 minutes later, paving the way for future developments in space travel.

Harnessing the Power of Visualization™
Yoda said, "Do or do not, there is no try."
How do you do something without trying to do it first?
Accessing our Inner Power with Images & Symbols
By visualizing a clear image, you assign the image to YOUR subconscious mind, where YOU can connect to a part of your psyche that's not accessible by words or thought. Repeating this process, if only for a few minutes, daily for 21 days, will build a bridge to access YOUR own powerful energetic field.
Rocket to the Moon Workshops presents:
"Harnessing the Power of Visualization™"
Power House Principle
Take a goal and watch it manifest through Envisioning.
This is one of the most extraordinary principles of
Personal Power.
Describe YOUR Vision in vivid details.
As if your describing YOU in a scene from a movie.
Paint the picture and then imprint it in your mind.
Review it daily for 21 Days.
You do not need to do anything about it other than to En-Vision it
"If YOU can Dream it, YOU can DO it."- Walt Disney.
"A Dream written down with a date becomes a GOAL.
A goal broken down into steps becomes a PLAN.
A plan backed by action makes your DREAMS come true."

Modeling and solving a logging camp location problem

- Citations
Harvesting plans for Canadian logging companies tend to cover wider territories than before. Long transportation distances for the workers involved in logging activities have thus become a significant issue. Often, cities or villages to accommodate the workers are far away. A common practice is thus to construct camps close to the logging regions, containing the complete infrastructure to host the workers. The problem studied in this paper consists in finding the optimal number, location and size of logging camps. We investigate the relevance and advantages of constructing additional camps, as well as expanding and relocating existing ones, since the harvest areas change over time. We model this problem as an extension of the Capacitated Facility Location Problem. Economies of scale are included on several levels of the cost structure. We also consider temporary closing of facility parts and particular capacity constraints that involve integer rounding on the left hand side. Results for real-world data and for a large set of randomly generated instances are presented.

In a pair of companion cases, the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) clarified when a voluntary departure or voluntary return breaks a non-citizen's continuous physical presence for the purpose of ascertaining eligibility for cancellation of removal for non-lawful permanent residents. The BIA stated that a voluntary departure or return will not break an applicant's continuous physical presence, if, at the time of the departure, the applicant had the right to seek relief from removal before an Immigration Judge and was not informed of this right. In other words, there must be some indication that the applicant, as part of a formal process, accepted voluntary return in lieu of being placed in removal proceedings.
Evidence that the applicant was photographed or fingerprinted at the time of the departure is not sufficient to demonstrate the requisite formality of the process. The BIA concluded "that where an alien has a right to a hearing before an Immigration Judge, there must be reliable testimonial and/or documentary evidence in the record to establish that the alien was informed of that right and waived it before a voluntary departure will be considered a sufficiently formal process to break his or her physical presence." Thus, when evaluating whether a departure breaks an applicant's continuous physical presence, the Immigration Judge should consider (1) the date and place of the encounter underlying the purported presence-breaking departure; (2) the possibility that the alien was alternatively subject to exclusion, deportation, or removal proceedings in which there was a right to a hearing before an Immigration Judge; and (3) the formality of the process used, including how the threat of proceedings was communicated to the alien, what advisals were given, and whether the alien had knowledge that the agreement to depart was in lieu of being placed in proceedings. Interestingly, the BIA noted that the Government attorney will typically be in a better position to offer documentary evidence regarding the formality of any departure.

First, the starting point:
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Now let me remind you, dear brothers and sisters, of the Good News I preached to you before. You welcomed it then and still do now, for your faith is built on this wonderful message. And it is this Good News that saves you if you firmly believe it—unless, of course, you believed something that was never true in the first place. I passed on to you what was most important and what had also been passed on to me—that Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, as the Scriptures said.
THE DESTINATION (Reconciliation with God and a new life!)
Rom. 6:4-11 "Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, that our body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin; for he who has died is freed from sin. Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him. For the death that He died, He died to sin, once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

Business Plan Writer for Chicago
Quality Business Plan has the best business plan writers for hire to help startup and established companies in the Chicago, IL., Schaumburg, IL., Evanston, IL., Naperville, IL. and Joliet, IL. areas. Our company specializes in writing business plans, business plan consulting, resume writing and financial forecasting. A popular industry in this area that we write business plans for is trucking industry. Our business plan writers define the trucking industry as truck drivers as sole proprietors, truck driving companies, manufacturers of trucks or truck accessories and businesses that cater almost exclusively to the trucking industry. When writing business plans for the trucking industry, our business plan writers often find that some business owners have difficulty with trucking companies hiring and attaching qualify employees. Hiring and attracting trucking employees is difficult for specific reasons. First, our business plan consultants have found that truck driving is harder than it actually seems. Truckers need to be able to continually monitor the road for potential hazards. Without perpetual vigilance, catastrophic accidents may be the result. Further, truckers often spend significant amounts of time away from friends and family. This leads to mental health challenges such as depression and anxiety. Fortunately, our business plan writers can help.
Our business plan writers can help with attracting and retaining quality workers.
Our business plan writers can help with worker retention by developing a professionally prepared business plan. In starting, not only is the trucking profession difficult but competition between employers for quality employees is extremely high. From this, our business plan writers have found that creating benefit packages for truckers focused on non-monetary items often is key to proper retention. For example, recently, we work with a trucking company to devise strategies where their workers are home every other weekend. By doing this, not only were they able to elevate her competitive position but their company morale may have improved as well. As always, the final step is to enshrine the strategies into a well-written and updated business plan.

Chicago, IL. Business Owner Receive Benefits from hiring Business Plan Writers.
Our business plan writers have worked with numerous small business owners in the Chicago, Illinois area. Some of our interactions have included business owners in the restaurant industry, fitness industry and even pizza delivery industry. From our experiences, we have created specific areas in which our business plan writers have been beneficial to local businesses.
Business Plan Writers Help Solve Problems.
An important area in which our business plan writers have been beneficial to small business owners in that Chicago, Illinois area is creating optimizing strategies for production within a company. Most people believe that production optimization is only for manufacturers. However, this is far from the truth. Production is defined as the total process or processes that a business uses to create a finished product or service. A finished product may include a completed meal for customer or even a finished business plan for a business consultant.
Our business plan writers can help small business owners improve production through the use of a business model segment. Our business model segment may include an overview of how a business operates, such as the hours of operations and the products or services they sell. However, to be more in line with processes, our business models may help business owners describe how specific employees may perform their job functions. To illustrate, whatever business models may be a small business owner describing how a server takes in order, delivers the order to the kitchen and brings the completed menu items to the customers. Once the production process is described in documentary, business owners are then able to take actions to optimize the documented process. Once optimizations are complete, then the business owner may implement the new business model into production. The end result is that a business owner is able to systematically update and optimize each business model within their business using our business plan writers.
Business Plan Writers Know Industries.
A second benefit from using our business plan writers is in relations to our research skills. Each business plan needs to have a customized industry research done. From this, professional researchers are needed to ensure brevity and completeness. For example, our business plan writers have written numerous business plan for the fitness industry. From this, we have compiled a multitude of statistics in relations to the industry. For example, our business plan writers have found that the fitness industry has grown by approximately 2.6% annually. Further, revenues for the industry exceeded 83 billion in 2016. This was substantially higher than 2015. Finally, there are over 200,000 fitness clubs on a global basis with over 160 million users or members. This small segment shows the need for business plan writers to ensure succinct research and documented resources.
Business Plan Writers Know How to Structure Business Plans.
A common challenge for small business owners in structuring a business plan so that readers are able to understand how a business will operate, revenues that will come from the operations and markets in which the business will serve. By using a professional business plan writer, Chicago area businesses are able to use proven business plan structures to ensure easy understandable business plans. To illustrate, our business plans often include an organization and management section. In this segment, we often start with describing how a business will be owned and review services offered. From this point, we then follow up with an explanation as to the management team and their experiences. By following similar structures such as this, readers are able to gain a good understanding of the overview of the section and then they receive specific simulations two important components. By using the structure over and over again, readers become accustomed to a well-structured business plan. This may not guarantee funding. However, it is deathly not to hurt either.

Picking the right floor for your bathroom is important. The flooring you pick will have a huge impact on your bathroom's look and feel, and the options are nearly endless. So shopping for bathroom flooring can be an overwhelming task. Appearance is often the first factor that people consider when searching for the right bathroom floor. Depending on your personal style, you may want a bathroom floor that complements the fixtures or adds a bold accent to the room.
Floor Coverings International, serving DeForest and surrounding areas, can help you determine what type of flooring is best for your bathroom. We offer free in-home consultations and offer many popular styles of flooring.
Why Work With Us?
Our design consultants come to your home with a huge variety of options. They will work with you to find the perfect flooring solution for your bathroom.
Our designers are also well educated about all types of flooring so they can answer any questions you might have.
We also have direct relationships with all the major flooring manufacturers. So you get a great price and don't have to spend your Saturday at the home improvement store.
Bathroom Flooring Materials
We'll help you select between hardwood flooring, tile flooring, laminate flooring, and more. With countless carpet styles, beautiful hardwoods, a wide array of tile, and eco-friendly options, you won't be disappointed. We provide flawless installation.
Bathroom flooring comes in an almost limitless variety of colors, materials and styles. Bathrooms tend to be small, intimate areas, so the flooring you choose can play a big role in the overall feel of the room. Light, reflective floors create a feeling of spaciousness, while dark, textured floors have a heavy, austere quality.
The most popular types of bathroom flooring are vinyl and ceramic tile, though that shouldn't stop you from considering laminate, engineered hardwood and even hardwood flooring (usually in half-baths or powder rooms.) Your choice will depend on a variety of factors, including your home's décor and how much floor maintenance you want to do.
Style & Function
You'll probably be barefoot in your bathroom, so you'll also want to consider some measure of slip resistance. Many vinyl and ceramic flooring options come with textured surfaces to prevent falls. If you enjoy the look of ceramic tile but worry it will be too slick, consider using smaller tiles. The grout between each tile will provide a non-skid surface.
Get in Touch
With so many options in bathroom flooring, it can be tough to choose the right one for your home in DeForest. Let the experts at Floor Coverings International Madison help. Call or click to schedule a free in-home consultation today.

This section covers common techniques used to overcome impairments or at least compensate for them:
Automatic rate adaptation
Two latency paths for different traffic types
SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) margin
Loop testing
A rate-adaptive digital subscriber line (RADSL) varies the achieved bit rate according to line quality and distance. This mass deployment technology preserves reach as the rate adjusts to local loop conditions if possible. The term RADSL was first applied to CAP modulation when it was discovered that with a bit of engineering, CAP would retrain (resynchronize) its bit rate systematically downward from the provisioned speed in response to impairments until it achieved a bit rate at ...

Can I make you lose control?
Belgian Hip hop star makes electronic music. Finally. And we're not talking Kanye West meets Daft Punk. This is a new Filip Kowlier project: Grapes! (thx to DJ808)
Grapes! is a side project of Filip Kowlier. And if that name doesn't ring a bell, you can always just watch the funny video. Concept, design and animation by Volstok Telefunken, except Cult-sequence: animated by Michélé De Feudis.
I'm sure that with some creativity a remix could make a dancefloor killer out of this. The video is a hit already!

Pathankot probe: Court okays polygraph test on Gurdaspur SP
New Delhi, Jan 18: The National Investigating Agency (NIA) has been permitted to conduct a polygraph or lie detector test on Salwinder Singh, the Gurdapur Superintendent of Police who was abducted by the terrorists prior to the Pathankot attack.
The NIA which has been questioning Singh for several days now has found his answers to be contradictory sought permission of the court to subject Singh to a polygraph test.
The NIA after questioning him reported to the Home Ministry of India with the progress. It also told the Home Ministry that a polygraph test would be needed in order to get a clear picture of what exactly transpired prior to the Pathankot attack.
The Home Ministry which okayed a polygraph test on Singh has also told the NIA to move the court. As per the law, an investigating agency will have to seek permission from a court before it can carry out a polygraph test.
In addition to this the court too will grant permission if Singh agrees to undergo a polygraph test.

Plenum Healer: offering metaphysical healing
* (Works if order is placed within 24 hours for items not already in cart.)
73.8 ▶ Questioner: Then will you speak of the difference between the spiraling light that enters through the feet and the light invoked through the crown chakra?
Ra: I am Ra. The action of the upward spiraling light drawn by the will to meet the inner light of the One Infinite Creator may be likened to the beating of the heart and the movement of the muscles surrounding the lungs and all the other functions of the parasympathetic nervous system. The calling of the adept may be likened to those nerve and muscle actions over which the mind/body/spirit complex has conscious control.
57.14 ▶ Questioner: What is the aid or the mechanism of the aid received for meditation for an entity who would be positioned in the so-called Queen's Chamber position?
Ra: I am Ra. Consider the polarity of mind/body/spirit complexes. The inner light is that which is your heart of being. Its strength equals your strength of will to seek the light. The position or balanced position of a group intensifies the amount of this will, the amount of awareness of the inner light necessary to attract the instreaming light upward spiraling from the south magnetic pole of being.
Thus this is the place of the initiate, for many extraneous items or distortions will leave the entity as it intensifies its seeking, so that it may become one with this centralized and purified in-coming light.
80.6 ▶ Questioner: What would our fifth-density visitor hope to gain for himself if he were to be successful in terminating this contact?
Ra: I am Ra. As we have previously stated, the entity hopes to gain a portion of that light; that is, the mind/body/spirit complex of the instrument. Barring this, the entity intends to put out the light.
78.9 ▶ Questioner: Now, we have the first, second, and third distortions of free will, love, and light. Am I correct in assuming that the central core of this major galaxy began to form with the third distortion? That was the origin of our Milky Way Galaxy?
Ra: I am Ra. In the most basic or teleological sense you are incorrect as the One Infinite Creator is all that there is. In an undistorted seed-form you are correct in seeing the first manifestation visible to the eye of the body complex which you inhabit as the third distortion, light, or to use a technical term, limitless light.
15.9 ▶ Questioner: Can you tell me a little bit about the definition of the word "balancing" as we are using it?
Ra: I am Ra. Picture, if you will, the One Infinite. You have no picture. Thus, the process begins. Love, creating light, becoming love/light, streams into the planetary sphere according to the electromagnetic web of points or nexi of entrance. These streamings are then available to the individual who, like the planet, is a web of electromagnetic energy fields with points or nexi of entrance.
In a balanced individual each energy center is balanced and functioning brightly and fully. The blockages of your planetary sphere cause some distortion of intelligent energy. The blockages of the mind/body/spirit complex further distort or unbalance this energy. There is one energy. It may be understood as love/light or light/love or intelligent energy.
57.6 ▶ Questioner: Would you tell me how to use that crystal for this purpose?
Ra: I am Ra. This is a large question.
You first, as a mind/body/spirit complex, balance and polarize the self, connecting the inner light with the upward spiraling inpourings of the universal light. You have done exercises to regularize the processes involved. Look to them for the preparation of the crystallized being.
Take, then, the crystal and feel your polarized and potentiated balanced energy channeled in green-ray healing through your being, going into and activating the crystalline regularity of frozen light which is the crystal. The crystal will resound with the charged light of incarnative love and light energy, and will begin to radiate in specified fashion, beaming, in required light vibrations, healing energy, focused and intensified towards the magnetic field of the mind/body/spirit complex which is to be healed. This entity requesting such healing will then open the armor of the overall violet/red-ray protective vibratory shield. Thus the inner vibratory fields, from center to center in mind, body, and spirit, may be interrupted and adjusted momentarily, thus offering the one to be healed the opportunity to choose a less distorted inner complex of energy fields and vibratory relationships.
54.27 ▶ Questioner: Would you please do that?
Ra: The origin of all energy is the action of free will upon love. The nature of all energy is light. The means of its ingress into the mind/body/spirit complex is duple.
Firstly, there is the inner light which is Polaris of the self, the guiding star. This is the birthright and true nature of all entities. This energy dwells within.
The second point of ingress is the polar opposite of the North Star, shall we say, and may be seen, if you wish to use the physical body as an analog for the magnetic field, as coming through the feet from the earth and through the lower point of the spine. This point of ingress of the universal light energy is undifferentiated until it begins its filtering process through the energy centers. The requirements of each center and the efficiency with which the individual has learned to tap into the inner light determine the nature of the use made by the entity of these instreamings.
6.14 ▶ Questioner: I think it would be appropriate to discover how the Law of One acts in this transfer of beings to our planet and the action of harvest?
Ra: I am Ra. The Law of One states simply that all things are one, that all beings are one. There are certain behaviors and thought-forms consonant with the understanding and practice of this law. Those who, finishing a cycle of experience, demonstrate various grades of distortion of that understanding of thought and action will be separated by their own choice into the vibratory distortion most comfortable to their mind/body/spirit complexes. This process is guarded or watched by those nurturing beings who, being very close to the Law of One in their distortions, nevertheless have the distortion towards active service.
Thus, the illusion is created of light, or more properly but less understandably, light/love. This is in varying degrees of intensity. The spirit complex of each harvested entity moves along the line of light until the light grows too glaring, at which time the entity stops. This entity may have barely reached third density or may be very, very close to the ending of the third-density light/love distortion vibratory complex. Nevertheless, those who fall within this octave of intensifying light/love then experience a major cycle during which the opportunities are many for the discovery of the distortions which are inherent in each entity and, therefore, the lessening of these distortions.
3.15 ▶ Questioner: Well, then you speak of the pyramid, especially the Great Pyramid, I assume, as primarily a healing machine and also spoke of it as a device for initiation. Are these one and the same concepts?
Ra: They are part of one complex of love/light intent/sharing. To use the healing aspects properly it was important to have a purified and dedicated channel, or energizer, for the love/light of the Infinite Creator to flow through; thus the initiatory method was necessary to prepare the mind, the body, and the spirit for service in the Creator's work. The two are integral.
6.7 ▶ Questioner: How were you able to make the transition from Venus, and I assume the sixth dimension, which— would that be invisible when you reached here? Did you have to change your dimensions to walk on the Earth?
Ra: You will remember the exercise of the wind. The dissolution into nothingness is the dissolution into unity, for there is no nothingness. From the sixth dimension, we are capable of manipulating, by thought, the intelligent infinity present in each particle of light or distorted light so that we were able to clothe ourselves in a replica visible in the third density of our mind/body/spirit complexes in the sixth density. We were allowed this experiment by the Council which guards this planet.
41.18 ▶ Questioner: Now, the animal in second density is composed of light as are all things. What I am trying to get at is the relationship between the light that the various bodies of the animal are created of and the relationship of this to the energy centers which are active and the ones which are not active and how this is linked with the Logos. It is a difficult question to ask. Can you give me some kind of answer on that?
Ra: I am Ra. The answer is to redirect your thought processes from any mechanical view of evolution. The will of the Logos posits the potentials available to the evolving entity. The will of the entity as it evolves is the single measure of the rate and fastidiousness of the activation and balancing of the various energy centers.
87.6 ▶ Questioner: Would you expand upon the concept of the acquisition of polarity by this particular entity, and its use, specifically, of this polarity other than with the simple, obvious need for sixth-density harvest if this is possible, please?
Ra: I am Ra. We would. The nature of the densities above your own is that a purpose may be said to be shared by both positive and negative polarities. This purpose is the acquisition of the ability to welcome more and more the less and less distorted love/light and light/love of the One Infinite Creator. Upon the negative path the wisdom density is one in which power over others has been refined until it is approaching absolute power. Any force such as the force your group and those of Ra offer which cannot be controlled by the power of such a negative fifth-density mind/body/spirit complex then depolarizes the entity which has not controlled other-selves.
It is not within your conscious selves to stand against such refined power but rather it has been through the harmony, the mutual love, and the honest calling for aid from the forces of light which have given you the shield and buckler.
3.4 ▶ Questioner: [After making the correction.] Is this satisfactory?
Ra: Please check your eye to make fine correction. We will explain the process by which this becomes a significant distortion balancer. The incense acts as energizer to the physical body of this instrument, signifying its humanity. This is, therefore, a necessity that the wafted smoke is perceived from the same relative angle as the instrument perceives the opened Bible balanced by the lighted candle signify love/light and light/love and, therefore, give the mental and emotional, shall we call it, distortion complex of this instrument the sight of paradise and peace which it seeks. Thus energized from the lower to the higher, the instrument becomes balanced and does not grow fatigued.
We appreciate your concern, for this will enable our teach/learning to proceed more easily.
78.25 ▶ Questioner: Then you are saying as a result of the polarization in consciousness that has occurred later in the galactic evolution, that the experiences are much more, shall I say, profound or deeper along the two paths. Are these experiences independent of the other path or must there be action across the potentiated difference between the positive and negative polarity, or is it possible to have this experience simply because of the single polarity? This is difficult to ask.
Ra: I am Ra. We would agree. We shall attempt to pluck the gist of your query from the surrounding verbiage.
The fourth and fifth densities are quite independent, the positive polarity functioning with no need of negative and vice-versa. It is to be noted that in attempting to sway third-density mind/body/spirit complexes in choosing polarity there evolves a good bit of interaction between the two polarities. In sixth density, the density of unity, the positive and negative paths must needs take in each other for all now must be seen as love/light and light/love. This is not difficult for the positive polarity, which sends love and light to all other-selves. It is difficult enough for service-to-self polarized entities that at some point the negative polarity is abandoned.
73.19 ▶ Questioner: I'll make a general statement which you can correct. The way I see the overall picture of healer and patient is that the one to be healed has, because of a blockage in one of the energy centers or more, but we will just consider one particular problem… Because of this energy center blockage the upward spiraling light that creates one of the seven bodies has been blocked from the maintenance of that body, and this has resulted in a distortion from the perfection of that body that we call disease or a bodily anomaly which is other than perfect. The healer, having suitably configured its energy centers, is able to channel light, the downward pouring light, through its properly configured energy situation to the one to be healed. If the one to be healed has the mental configuration of acceptance of this light, the light then enters [the] physical complex and re-configures the distortion that was created by the original blockage. I am sure that I have made some mistakes in that. Would you please correct them?
Ra: I am Ra. Your mistakes were small. We would not, at this time, attempt a great deal of refinement of that statement as there is preliminary material which will undoubtedly come forward. We may say that there are various forms of healing. In many, only the energy of the adept is used. In the exercise of fire some physical complex energy is also channeled.
We might note further that when the one wishing to be healed, though sincere, remains unhealed, as you call this distortion, you may consider pre-incarnative choices and your more helpful aid to such an entity may be the suggestion that it meditate upon the affirmative uses of whatever limitations it might experience. We would also note that in these cases the indigo-ray workings are often of aid.
Other than these notes, we do not wish to further comment upon your statement at this working.
51.1 ▶ Questioner: As we begin Book Three of The Law Of One there are a couple of questions, one of fairly non-transient importance and one which I consider to be a bit transient that I feel obligated to ask because of communication with others.
The first is just clearing up final points about harvest for our friend [name]. And I was wondering if there is a supervision over the harvest and if so, why this supervision is necessary and how it works since an entity's harvestability is the violet ray? Is it necessary for entities to supervise the harvest, or is it automatic? Could you answer this, please?
Ra: I am Ra. In time of harvest there are always harvesters. The fruit is formed as it will be, but there is some supervision necessary to ensure that this bounty is placed as it should be without the bruise or the blemish.
There are those of three levels watching over harvest.
The first level is planetary and that which may be called angelic. This type of guardian includes the mind/body/spirit complex totality or higher self of an entity and those inner plane entities which have been attracted to this entity through its inner seeking.
The second class of those who ward this process are those of the Confederation who have the honor/duty of standing in the small places at the edge of the steps of light/love so that those entities being harvested will not, no matter how confused or unable to make contact with their higher self, stumble and fall away for any reason other than the strength of the light. These Confederation entities catch those who stumble and set them aright so that they may continue into the light.
The third group watching over this process is that group you call the Guardians. This group is from the octave above our own and serves in this manner as light-bringers. These Guardians provide the precise emissions of light/love in exquisitely fastidious disseminations of discrimination so that the precise light/love vibration of each entity may be ascertained.
Thus the harvest is automatic in that those harvested will respond according to that which is unchangeable during harvest. That is the violet-ray emanation. However, these helpers are around to ensure a proper harvesting so that each entity may have the fullest opportunity to express its violet-ray selfhood.
73.10 ▶ Questioner: In invoking the alerted light then, it would seem to me that the visualization of the invocation would be dependent upon what the use was to be of the light. The use could be for healing, could be for communication, or it could be for the general awareness, you might say, of the creation and the Creator. Would you please speak on this process and my correctness in making this assumption?
Ra: I am Ra. We shall offer some thoughts though it is doubtful that we may exhaust this subject. Each visualization, regardless of the point of the working, begins with some work within the indigo ray. As you may be aware, the ritual which you have begun is completely working within the indigo ray. This is well for it is the gateway. From this beginning light may be invoked for communication or for healing.
You may note that in the ritual which we offered you to properly begin the Ra workings the first focus is upon the Creator. We would further note a point which is both subtile and of some interest. The upward spiraling light developed in its path by the will, and ultimately reaching an high place of mating with the inward fire of the One Creator, still is only preparation for the work upon the mind/body/spirit which may be done by the adept. There is some crystallization of the energy centers used during each working so that the magician becomes more and more that which it seeks.
More importantly, the time/space mind/body/spirit analog, which is evoked as the magical personality, has its only opportunity to gain rapidly from the experience of the catalytic action available to the third-density space/time mind/body/spirit. Thus the adept is aiding the Creator greatly by offering great catalyst to a greater portion of the creation which is identified as the mind/body/spirit totality of an entity.
43.0 ▶ Ra: I am Ra. I greet you in the love and in the light of the One Infinite Creator.
Before we communicate may we request the adjustment, without the touching of this instrument's physical body complex, of the item which presses upon the instrument's head. This is causing some interference with our contact.
52.11 ▶ Questioner: Thank you. Just a little point that was bothering me of no real importance.
Well, is there then, from the point of view of an individual who wishes to follow the service-to-others path from our present position in third density, is there anything of importance other than disciplines of personality, knowledge of self, and strengthening of will?
Ra: I am Ra. This is technique. This is not the heart. Let us examine the heart of evolution.
Let us remember that we are all one. This is the great learning/teaching. In this unity lies love. This is a great learn/teaching. In this unity lies light. This is the fundamental teaching of all planes of existence in materialization. Unity, love, light, and joy; this is the heart of evolution of the spirit.
The second-ranking lessons are learn/taught in meditation and in service. At some point the mind/body/spirit complex is so smoothly activated and balanced by these central thoughts or distortions that the techniques you have mentioned become quite significant. However, the universe, its mystery unbroken, is one. Always begin and end in the Creator, not in technique.
30.5 ▶ Questioner: I would like to know how the mind/body/spirit complexes originate. How, going back as far as necessary, does the— Do they originate by spirit forming mind and mind forming body? Can you tell me this?
Ra: I am Ra. We ask you to consider that you are attempting to trace evolution. This evolution is as we have previously described, the consciousness being first, in first density, without movement, a random thing. Whether you may call this mind or body complex is a semantic problem. We call it mind/body complex recognizing always that in the simplest iota of this complex exists in its entirety the One Infinite Creator; this mind/body complex then in second density discovering the growing and turning towards the light, thus awakening what you may call the spirit complex, that which intensifies the upward spiraling towards the love and light of the Infinite Creator.
The addition of this spirit complex, though apparent rather than real, it having existed potentially from the beginning of space/time, perfects itself by graduation into third density. When the mind/body/spirit complex becomes aware of the possibility of service to self or other-self, then the mind/body/spirit complex is activated.
3.10 ▶ Questioner: Then if an individual is totally informed with respect to the Law of One and lives, and is the Law of One, such things as the building of a pyramid by direct mental effort would be commonplace. Is that what I am to understand? Am I correct?
Ra: I am Ra. You are incorrect in that there is a distinction between the individual power through the Law of One and the combined, or societal memory complex mind/body/spirit understanding of the Law of One.
In the first case only the one individual, purified of all flaws, could move a mountain. In the case of mass understanding of unity, each individual may contain an acceptable amount of distortion and yet the mass mind could move mountains. The progress is normally from the understanding which you now seek to a dimension of understanding which is governed by the laws of love, and which seeks the laws of light. Those who are vibrating with the Law of Light seek the Law of One. Those who vibrate with the Law of One seek the Law of Foreverness.
We cannot say what is beyond this dissolution of the unified self with all that there is, for we still seek to become all that there is, and still are we Ra. Thus our paths go onward.
66.11 ▶ Questioner: Then in seeking healing a mind/body/spirit complex would then be seeking in some cases a source of gathered and focused light energy. This source could be another mind/body/spirit complex sufficiently crystallized for this purpose or the pyramid shape, or possibly something else. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. These are some of the ways an entity may seek healing. Yes.
56.3 ▶ Questioner: In that case, I will ask how does the pyramid shape work?
Ra: I am Ra. We are assuming that you wish to know the principle of the shapes, angles, and intersections of the pyramid at what you call Giza.
In reality, the pyramid shape does no work. It does not work. It is an arrangement for the centralization as well as the diffraction of the spiraling upward light energy as it is being used by the mind/body/spirit complex.
The spiraling nature of light is such that the magnetic fields of an individual are affected by spiraling energy. Certain shapes offer an echo chamber, shall we say, or an intensifier for spiraling prana, as some have called this all-present, primal distortion of the One Infinite Creator.
If the intent is to intensify the necessity for the entity's own will to call forth the inner light in order to match the intensification of the spiraling light energy, the entity will be placed in what you have called the Queen's Chamber position in this particular shaped object. This is the initiatory place and is the place of resurrection.
The off-set place, representing the spiral as it is in motion, is the appropriate position for one to be healed as in this position an entity's vibratory magnetic nexi are interrupted in their normal flux. Thus a possibility/probability vortex ensues; a new beginning, shall we say, is offered for the entity in which the entity may choose a less distorted, weak, or blocked configuration of energy center magnetic distortions.
The function of the healer and crystal may not be over-emphasized, for this power of interruption must needs be controlled, shall we say, with incarnate intelligence; the intelligence being that of one which recognizes energy patterns; which, without judging, recognizes blockage, weakness, and other distortion; and which is capable of visualizing, through the regularity of self and of crystal, the less distorted other-self to be healed.
Other shapes which are arched, groined, vaulted, conical, or as your teepees are also shapes with this type of intensification of spiraling light. Your caves, being rounded, are places of power due to this shaping.
It is to be noted that these shapes are dangerous. We are quite pleased to have the opportunity to enlarge upon the subject of shapes such as the pyramid for we wish, as part of our honor/duty, to state that there are many wrong uses for these curved shapes; for with improper placement, improper intentions, or lack of the crystallized being functioning as channel for healing the sensitive entity will be distorted more rather than less in some cases.
It is to be noted that your peoples build, for the most part, the cornered or square habitations, for they do not concentrate power. It is further to be noted that the spiritual seeker has, for many of your time periods of years, sought the rounded, arched, and peaked forms as an expression of the power of the Creator.
40.17 ▶ Questioner: Thank you. I'll just ask if there's anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable or improve the contact?
Ra: This instrument is well. You are conscientious. The appurtenances cause this instrument greater comfort in the distortion of the warmth of the body complex. I am Ra. I leave you, my friends, in the love and in the light of the One Infinite Creator. Go forth then rejoicing in the power and the peace of the One Infinite Creator. Adonai.
16.62 ▶ Questioner: Only just know if the instrument can be any more comfortable?
Ra: I am Ra. This instrument is as comfortable as it is possible for you to make it given the weakness distortions of its body complex. You are conscientious.
I am Ra. I leave you in the love and the light of the One Infinite Creator. Go forth, then, rejoicing in the power and the peace of the One Creator. Adonai.
4.20 ▶ Questioner: My objective is primarily to discover more of the Law of One, and [it would] be very helpful to discover techniques of healing. I am aware of your problem with respect to free will. Can you make… You cannot make suggestions, so I will ask you if you can state the Law of One and the laws of healing to me?
Ra: I am Ra. The Law of One, though beyond the limitations of name, as you call vibratory sound complexes, may be approximated by stating that all things are one, that there is no polarity, no right or wrong, no disharmony, but only identity. All is one, and that one is love/light, light/love, the Infinite Creator.
One of the primal distortions of the Law of One is that of healing. Healing occurs when a mind/body/spirit complex realizes, deep within itself, the Law of One; that is, that there is no disharmony, no imperfection; that all is complete and whole and perfect. Thus, the intelligent infinity within this mind/body/spirit complex re-forms the illusion of body, mind, or spirit to a form congruent with the Law of One. The healer acts as energizer or catalyst for this completely individual process.
One item which may be of interest is that a healer asking to learn must take the distortion understood as responsibility for that ask/receiving, thus healing. This is a[n] honor/duty which must be carefully considered in free will before the asking.
17.18 ▶ Questioner: Then if the entity Jesus was fourth density and there are Wanderers on the planet today who came from fifth and sixth density, what was it that Jesus did that enabled him to be such a good healer and could these fifth- and sixth-density beings here today do the same?
Ra: I am Ra. Those who heal may be of any density which has the consciousness of the spirit. This includes third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh. The third density can be one in which healing takes place just as the others. However, there is more illusory material to understand, to balance, to accept, and to move forward from.
The gate to intelligent infinity can only be opened when an understanding of the instreamings of intelligent energy are opened unto the healer. These are the so-called Natural Laws of your local space/time continuum and its web of electromagnetic sources or nexi of instreaming energy.
Know then, first, the mind and the body. Then as the spirit is integrated and synthesized, those are harmonized into a mind/body/spirit complex which can move among the dimensions and which can open the gateway to intelligent infinity, thus healing self by light and sharing that light with others.
True healing is simply the radiance of the self causing an environment in which a catalyst may occur which initiates the recognition of self, by self, of the self-healing properties of the self.
41.5 ▶ Questioner: In your last statement did you mean that the sixth-density entities are actually creating the manifestation of the sun in their density? Could you explain what you meant by that?
Ra: I am Ra. In this density some entities whose means of reproduction is fusion may choose to perform this portion of experience as part of the beingness of the sun body. Thus you may think of portions of the light that you receive as offspring of the generative expression of sixth-density love.
24.23 ▶ Questioner: Oh, please, I'm almost ready. Is there anything that we can do to make the instrument more comfortable?
Ra: I am Ra. You are conscientious. Be careful only to adjust this instrument's upper appendages if its upper body is elevated.
I am Ra. All is well. It is our joy to speak with you. We leave in the love and the light of the One Infinite Creator. Go forth, therefore, rejoicing in the power and the peace of the One Creator. Adonai.
54.30 ▶ Questioner: I'll make this statement which may be somewhat distorted and let you correct it. We have, coming through the feet and base of the spine, the total energy that the mind/body/spirit complex will receive in the way of what we call light. Each energy center as it is met filters out and uses a portion of this energy, red through violet. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is largely correct. The exceptions are as follows: The energy ingress ends with indigo. The violet ray is a thermometer or indicator of the whole.

Dentures improve quality of life for Atlantis, FL patients
Replacing one or a few missing teeth creates a tremendous improvement in your smile, speech, oral health, and nutrition. Getting a whole new set of teeth can be life changing. The dentists at Atlantis Dental Care improve the lives of their patients in the Atlantis, FL area using the latest design techniques and materials for dentures.
Types of dentures
We work with a trusted dental laboratory to create dentures with a terrific fit. Every detail, from the type of materials, to tooth shape and size, and bite balance is carefully considered. The color of gums and teeth is selected to enhance facial appearance.
A partial denture replaces one or several teeth in the same arch. A removable partial denture has hard plastic teeth. Metal clasps anchor the denture to existing teeth. This can be an economical alternative to a fixed bridge or dental implants. However, it is not as stable, and must be replaced more frequently. A full denture replaces all teeth in an arch. It is held in place by facial muscles and natural suction, sometimes with the aid of denture adhesive. A full upper denture covers the palate, so there is some impairment in temperature sensation and taste. Complete dentures are full upper and lower arches designed to work together to reinstate chewing function, speech, and appearance. An immediate denture is designed in advance and inserted right after teeth are extracted. The patient does not have to be seen without teeth, and the denture protects the mouth. However, fit must be adjusted when healing is complete.
Dentures with a big difference
Atlantis Dental Care is also pleased to offer implant supported dentures. Specially-designed dental implants (four or six per arch) are placed into the jawbone. Bone fuses solidly with the implants. Dentures contain connectors that snap over abutments on the implants. The result is an amazing level of stability. Implant retained dentures are the only type that fully support back teeth and help to preserve strong facial bone (avoiding a recessed mouth).
Let's get started on your new smile. Call (561) 220-7323 for a dentures consultation at our Atlantis, FL office.

Five Swoon Worthy Bathrooms with Gorgeous Tubs
The other day I was scrolling through the thousands of photos on my phone (no joke lol!) when I came across this photo below I took a few months back when I was touring a show home in Edmonton. This bathroom stopped me in my tracks as I was walking through this house. The contrast of the black and white, the addition of the warm wood, the modern fixture of course that hex tile fading into the hardwood all left me basically drooling but the real showstopper was that tub. I mean, come on!! The organic shape is modern and minimalist but still inviting and I don't know about you but I feel like I could pretty much just curl up in that tub and live as a happy gal for the rest of my days! haha
So, in stumbling upon this photo I began thinking about how a tub can really make a bathroom space come to life, feel complete and set the tone for the rest of the space. Today, I'm sharing 5 washrooms that are envy inducing (consider yourselves warned) and despite they're varying styles they all have one thing in common: a seriously swoon worthy tub!
1. This Gorgeous Heritage Washroom Renovation
Now I feel like I should admit a bit of a bias when it comes to this space as I have spent a fair amount of time admiring this tub both from afar and in person, as this space belongs to my dear friend Justine. Justine and her husband have been lovingly renovating and restoring their heritage home and their washroom is a serious showstopper - just take a look at the rest of the space here and prepare to swoon! Funny story: Justine, Kristina and I actually ended a girls night drinking wine in this tub in the midst of the bathroom reno, all three of us squished inside discussing design plans for the space into the early hours of the morning! So obviously this had to be my first share ;)
2. This Modern but Feminine Bathroom
If you ask me Amber Interiors can do no wrong so naturally I fell in love with this washroom that blends classic elements with modern finishes and a touch of elegance and femininity that creates a gorgeous bathroom that I could only dream of having for myself! *le sigh* I think what I especially love about this space is the introduction of colors and textures that add a richness to a space that is otherwise quite simple. And that tub... oh the hours I'd spend in there!
3. This Small Space with Big Drama
This is a washroom reno that I absolutely adore! This bathroom is both on trend but also classic with a vintage charm. It has the very trendy black, white and wood combo but so much character and personality with all of the greenery and great texture through art and accents!
4. This Fashionista's Glamorous Bathroom
My jaw hit the floor when I came across this image on Pinterest and then when I learned that this home belonged to the impeccably stylish Jenna Lyons it all made sense. While I don't think I could ever commit to this level of drama in my own home I find myself incredibly drawn into the luxe marble, rich colors and eclectic styling of this beautiful space!
5. This Coastal Meets Minimalist Space
Lastly, I wanted to share this minimalist coastal washroom that's one that keeps catching my eye on Pinterest over the past year or so. I love the clean simplicity of this room that still manages to maintain a warmth and casualness to it. I'd happily move right on in, what about you?!

I'll love you forever.../
If you don't have kids yet, there's a good chance you don't know the book Love You Forever. I was introduced to it 8 years ago reading bedtime stories to my godson, my best friend's first child. I remember the whole scene. We were in his room, lights dimmed for bedtime, cuddling with his Bunny (his one favorite animal that is now an official family member). As I got further into the book, I tried to hide the tears running down my face from Finnie. I thought in no way is this a kid's book. This is so sad! It's about the cycle of life and the fleeting moments we must cherish. But, babies and kids love this book regardless.
Cut to me now reading this book to my own son right before he turns one. He loves books. He likes the repetition of the verses. It's almost like a song...
I'll love you forever. I'll like you for always. As long as I'm living, my baby you'll be.
I'm going to cuddle him for as long as he'll let me. And now I get why people still use months... 12 months, 14 months, 24 months, etc. It's kind of an mind game...it still sounds like a baby. I'm sure I'll move on to saying "one year" very soon, but I'm not in a rush.
My husband on the other hand, can't wait for him to walk and talk and go fishing. I suppose it's a decent balance;)
Some of our FAVORITE books/toys:
I believe most kids love music, movement, sounds, etc. Hayden is obsessed. He was playing (banging) on the piano with his dad months ago. He loves books with music like the adorable Musical Friends - the instrumental music is amazing. It's a very cool toy/book. If you have kids/need gift ideas? Some others we are enjoying... scroll on!
Tomorrow is Huck's 5th birthday party.... wish us luck. It's a shark theme! Ha. Then on to planning Hayden's First. Happy Weekend! What are your plans?

A Backup Plan for Your Morning Routine
Having a consistent morning routine is essential for setting the table for your day but having a backup plan may be just as important. Here's a tip for being flexible with your morning routine:
- If you were up too late the night before and keep hitting the snooze button over and over, use a modified schedule to start your day.
A modified schedule might mean a shorter routine or doing something different like working out instead of journaling. If I don't sleep well or am in a funk, I give myself 20 extra minutes of sleep and then go for a walk instead of my usual routine of blogging, journaling and prayer. Having this backup plan in place is really handy and allows me to go with the flow instead of feeling defeated in the first 90 minutes of the day.

Since October, NewVIc has been working with the National Literacy Trust to deliver 'Words for Work: Women in Leadership' - a programme which aims to engage and empower our future female leaders.
Earlier this week, the programme culminated in a fantastic 'Women in Leadership' panel event, which was attended by over 200 female students from across East London.
Students heard from inspirational female leaders and learnt about their journeys to success, the challenges they faced and how they overcame them.
The panellists of professionals included:
Qube Learning's CEO Joe Crossley spoke to editor Victoria Galligan about the organisation's degree apprenticeships, which will launch in January 2019…
Could you outline the Apprenticeship Levy, and what it means for educators and for businesses?
Cambridge Regional College (CRC), with campuses in Huntingdon and Cambridge, has been recognised by the Huntingdonshire Business Awards for its contribution to projects in the local community.
The College has been shortlisted in the 'Projects Making a Difference in the Community' category, a title which the College has won consecutively for at least the last five years.

When it comes to education establishments - whether that's a school, a college or university - just how many of them reviewing their hardware and software on a regular basis? No doubt there's always an urgent need to quickly fix that printer or a hard drive for the geography department or another. But how often are ICT experts getting a chance to assess their infrastructure and carry out the relevant updates? Are some thinking it's just easier to chuck out the old kit and replace with something brand new and shiny?
As National Apprenticeship Week highlights the opportunities available for apprentices, UK-based charity Education and Employers launches a report, Teenage Apprenticeships: Converting Awareness to Recruitment. The Government want to have recruited 3million apprenticeships by 2020, and the report investigates why the number of school leavers becoming apprentices has flatlined.
Famous former pupils of Blackpool schools are to help transform current students' opportunities and give them a better start in life by going back to the classroom. The initiative to build alumni networks in schools and a college in the town, run by the education charity Future First and funded by the Government's Careers and Enterprise Company, has been backed by the actors Jodie Prenger and Craig Parkinson who both grew up and studied in the town.

Managing a business within the digital age involves a major quantity of creating.
There is your internet site . Your weblog . Social websites posts. Profits duplicate. Adverts. Guest posts. The listing goes on. Who's planning to do all of that crafting?
And there's more. There's key phrase study, internet search engine optimization (Web optimization), enhancing, publishing, and distribution. Are you currently intending to get fifteen or twenty several hours away from your 7 days to carry out all of that ? It seems unlikely. So what do you think you're about to do ?
It's time for you to employ the service of a writer.
Why it is best to choose a writer?
Briefly, since creating is difficult.
High-quality subject matter composing leads to better direct technology , a little more valuable sales duplicate, and improved internet visibility. Ads, brochures, and catalogs all profit from a specialized author. Selecting a freelance author to craft specialized documentation, press releases, and online marketing duplicate will make a giant difference in how your shoppers see you.
Building top-notch copy is amazingly difficult. A wide range of of our very own blog site posts consider five or more hrs to write, edit, and publish. Executing that all by yourself 3 times weekly implies fifteen hrs of one's time is long gone. Which is time that could be invested selling, earning connections, or making your workforce .
That is certainly accurately why you have to choose a author.
Far more goes into the articles marketing and advertising approach. Search term researching, strategizing, doing Seo, distributing your posts, and putting together backlinks needs effort and time. Would you have enough time for all of that? And when you do, are you presently self-assured that you may construct material that's suitable, important, and definitely world-class in top notch ?If not, it's time and energy to outsource creating to a professional.
What choosing a writer can do to your internet marketing business
Publishing high-quality, useful knowledge delivers audience in your page, displays them the worth of one's products, and will help switch them into faithful patrons. You offer a specific thing to them – valuable information – they usually give again for you – by deciding to buy your products or services .
Therefore you can in fact measure how beneficial which is. We wrote a detailed submit on how we evaluate the ROI of our personal articles promoting so that you can do identical.
Proven methods to sales copywriter use writers
Now that you are aware of where to discover writers for employ the service of , it is the perfect time to employ just one. You may think that you choose to just convey to them what they have to do, they are doing it , and you shell out. The fact is that, it is not that easy. Here absolutely are a handful of good reasons why:
- You will discover many nice writers around
- Not all writers are aware of subject material merchandising and Search engine optimization
- A large number of writers will not provide the model or tone you are on the lookout for
Luckily, at any time you go in with this particular understanding, the method is much better. Freelance marketplaces, like Hubstaff or Upwork, enable you write-up your occupation and invite freelancers to express their desire . Writers then location a bid relating to the work or send you a proof of why they'd become a ideal solution .
Following that, it's your decision to form because of a (possibly highly massive) variety of applicants and reduce the checklist all the way down to a handful. You are going to have got to start looking at their profiles, web sites , and portfolios. And following that, it's most effective to acquire them do a exam mission. This allows you to see what type of producing they will deliver for you.
After which, last but not least , you could retain the services of your author .
All this will take time, but getting the most beneficial author on your commerce is worth the financial commitment. Particularly if you're able to establish a long-term marriage. Really do not assume that you'll have a freelancer publish a particular detail and become completed – once you obtain a person who does marvelous function, working with them frequently shall be really helpful .
