A tale of five young Berliners – a taxi driver, a travelling wine dealer, a record shop sales girl, a film extra and a model – on a typical Sunday. In this vivid snapshot of Berlin life, a trip to the countryside reveals the flirtations, rivalries, jealousies, and petty irritations common to any group outing. All too soon it is the end of the day, and the prospect of Monday looms, and the return to the weekday routine.
One of the key films of the Weimar era, People on Sunday marked the start of the film careers of six cineastes who would go on to great international successes: Billy Wilder, Robert and Curt Siodmak, Edgar G Ulmer, Eugen Schüfftan and Fred Zinneman
BFI presents Robert Siodmak's and Edgar G. Ulmer's People on Sunday on Blu-ray in its original aspect ratio of 1.37:1. The film is presented on a dual-layer disc with a 1080p/24hz high-definition encode, and makes use of the same 2K restoration from 2010 that was used for Criterion's 2011 Blu-ray edition. This restoration was constructed from what elements could be recovered, with big portions of the film still missing. This disc is locked for region B.
The only real difference between BFI's presentation and Criterion's is that the BFI delivers a progressive 24hz presentation while Criterion's offers an interlaced 60hz presentation. This actually isn't too big a deal as Criterion only inserted interlaced frames here and there to adjust for the framerate, so interlacing was never an issue while watching in motion. BFI has managed to pull off 24 frames-per-second and it looks fine. Jumping back and forth between the two didn't show any obvious differences.
I also can't say I saw any differences in any other areas. The film has had a rough life and only portions of it survive across multiple sources. The restoration team had to gather all of these elements and piece it back together as best they could, recreating the intertitles (which are presented here in German with English subtitles). Considering all of this it shouldn't be a surprise that the elements are still in rough shape, and they can vary from shot to shot. For the most part the film has excellent contrast and grayscale, with some sharp looking blacks, but other moments can either look too dark or even blown out. Damage is still heavy with scratches, splices, debris, stains, tram lines, and more, which can be heavier in some scenes compared to others. It's easy to see that a lot of restoration work was still put into this, but I feel it's so severe at times that it was just not possible to get everything without harming the image in other ways.
That all said the digital presentation is exceptional. Despite any issues with the source the image is surprisingly sharp and crisp, delivering excellent details and textures, and film grain (which can get heavy) looks natural and clean. It looks like a film presentation.
I can't say it's any different in comparison to the Criterion edition, neither better nor worse, but that's fine since the Criterion presentation looked solid. It's an exceptional looking encode that manages to help alleviate issues still visible in the source print. All things considered I still think it looks great.
People on Sunday is silent but BFI gives the option of two scores: one by Elena Kats-Chernin and another by múm. The Kats-Chernin track is a more traditional sounding one and is probably the one most will want to use (and surprisingly it doesn't sound to be the same one as what is found on the Criterion disc). The múm is experimental, with a more industrial/electronic sound (I guess you can say), which did little for me. But since both are newly recorded they sound great, with excellent depth and range, and no background noise or damage.
Criterion's edition was light on special features, only featuring a documentary from 2000 on the film along with a short film by People on Sunday's director of photography, Eugen Schüfftan, called Ins Blaue hinein. BFI packs more material onto their release, starting with an audio commentary by Adrian Martin. As always Martin's commentary is well researched and packed full of information about the film's production, release, and influence. The film was of course the launching pad for a few directors that would go off to do bigger things (Robert Siodmak, Edgar G. Ulmer, and Billy Wilder) and Martin states early on one probably shouldn't watch the film as just a foreshadowing of things to come, but also admits it's hard to do so when paying attention to framing and construction. On top of looking at the stylistic choices and complicated editing (along with the mix of documentary and fiction) he also talks about reactions to the film at the time of release, from audiences and critics alike, and also addresses how modern critics and filmmakers have reacted to the film. The track is a bit dryer than other Martin commentaries I've listened to, but it is packed with well researched material and makes for a breezy listen.
Like Criterion's edition this release also features Weekend am Wannsee, a 31-minute documentary featuring interviews with writer Curt Siodmak (brother of the director, Robert), actress Brigitte Borchert, and film restorer Martin Koerber. Siodmak and Borchert recall the production, which was limited by a tight budget. Borchet talks about some of the sequences and the people she worked with and also mentions what happened to most of the performers after the film. Siodmak talks a little about his brother and the story, and if I understood him correctly, he doesn't like the film. Koerber talks about the restoration, focusing on how he was able to put together the version we now have. Very strong documentary that decently covers the subject.
BFI then includes a handful of short films related in one way or another to People on Sunday. First is the 1910 silent short (running 6-minutes) Eine Fahrt durch Berlin, described as a travelogue through Berlin. And that is what it is, first taking us through the streets of Berlin using a first-person perspective, before stopping at a few landmarks. The film still features a lot of damage, but the high-definition presentation looks razor-sharp, rendering film grain perfectly and delivering decent fine-object detail, despite any issues with the source print. This is actually a really solid example as to why any film, no matter the condition, can still benefit from high-definition.
The next two films are English, though fit the subject of the main feature to an extent. The 22-minute Beside the Seaside is a 1935 documentary directed by Marion Grierson chronicling the journey of a number of Londoners to the coast during a heatwave. The early material, capturing various people and families starting the journey feel staged but the latter half just captures the events at the various beaches and resorts (which unfortunately includes a blackface minstrel show that was apparently popular at one of the resorts), until we conclude at an amusement park in the evening. It also comes in high-definition and looks really good.
This Year—London is a 25-minute short about work outing for the employees of a Leicester boot and shoe factory, focusing on the employees going and events of the trip. It's a British Transport Film so it's more concerned about the journey. It has the more "educational" vibe to it and lacks the playful of editing of the last film but it's a solid inclusion as well. The film also looks fine but looks to be an upscale to high-definition.
BFI then includes one of their wonderful booklets to close things off. Amanda DeMarco first includes an essay on the film's documentary style and its representation of Berlin and its people, followed by an essay by Sarah Wood on the film's production and history (and how it was almost lost thanks to the war). BFI then reprints a 1931 interview with one of the film's "stars," Brigitte Borchert, on the film and her future as an actress (she doesn't want to be one and never appeared in anything else), which is then followed by a reprinting of a poem she wrote for a 1992 video release of the film. There is then a reprint of a 1930 review for the film written by Hansjürgen Willer, and then notes on the scores and special features, along with details about the restoration.
A far more satisfying collection of supplements in comparison to the Criterion, with the Martin commentary being a big plus all on its own.
The video presentation doesn't differ in any way that I can see between the Criterion edition and this one, despite the differing frame-rates. But BFI's edition clearly blows away the Criterion edition with its supplements, offering more (including a commentary) than Criterion's couple of features.

Our Story
Ace High was born from personal frustrations with other products on the market. In early 2016, Nate began putting together small batches of natural ingredients in search of a water-based pomade with noticeable shine and a strong, pliable hold - something that wasn't really available at the time. It would be great to say that the first batch was flawless and we started the business the next day, but that's just not how things work. After the first few batches, it seemed as though Nate was better at making candles than he was at pioneering a new pomade, but he stuck with it and a few months later, our Original Pomade was born. After Nate did all the hard work of formulating, I hopped on board and we made the jump from a small passion project to a full-fledged business. In August of 2016 we released our first production batch of our Original Pomade to the public.
In the early days, Nate and I would have to wait until 11pm for the coffee shop we worked at to close to utilize their commercial kitchen for production. We were able to produce 25 jars in a modified crock pot in just under three hours (four when we had a few beers and some friends that were good at distracting us from working). Since then, we've grown to having a full product line, multiple employees, and an actual production space with equipment that allows us to make quite a bit more jars at a time.
It's been an incredible journey so far, and we can't wait to see what the future has in store for this brand. Thanks to our loyal fans around the world, everyday we're able to make and use a product that we love, while sharing it with everyone else. And for that we can't thank you enough.

"There seems to be something that you can do so much with paint and after that you start murdering it. There are moments or periods when it would be wonderful to plan something and do it and have the thing only do what you planned to do, and then, there are other times when the destruction of those planned things becomes interesting to you. So then it becomes a question of destroying - of destroying the planned form; it's like an escape, its something to do; something to begin the situation. You yourself, you don't decide, but if you want to paint you have to find out some way to start this thing off, whether its painting it out or putting it in, and so on."
-- Franz Kline, Interviews with American Artists
I've been reading Interviews with American Artists, by David Sylvester lately, and it is really refreshing to see these reflections of great historical icons that relate so well to my own personal artmaking experience. So often I do feel more led by unexpected occurrences in composition or reactionary impulses rather than what I sought out to do before being faced with a surface. Increasingly my process is becoming more about these reactions and compositional elements.
Above is a snapshot of some in progress paper pieces.

Are you keen to see your town or city published?
It is a massive undertaking to create a Sarah Platt Art collection for a region. The making requires research , design, painting and publishing. Can you help kick start your region, joining the Sarah Platt Art Collection by commissioning or sponsoring the work?
Can you partner with Sarah Platt Art to help put the story of our nation together?
Sarah Platt would love to have every New Zealand region represented in her collection. Each painting taking weeks to months to do. Each region requires a year to put together. Sarah is keen to partner with organisations and individuals in the places she has not yet done, to help get these places off the ground. This could be as simple as an individual commissioning her to paint their towns story, paying to own the original, and allowing the image to be published into the collection. Better still, a regional charity or council could commit to partnering in the cost involved to develop a collection, and then share in the proceeds at a regional auction when the originals are complete.
Contact Sarah to discuss, email firstname.lastname@example.com

Meth lab and drug lab cleanup training is the most extensive training we offer in the company. There are hundreds of methods to successful remediating a former meth lab. We have seen countless subcontractors perform meth lab cleanups throughout the country incorrectly. The contractor typically becomes super frustrated because they continue to fail clearance testing. Our founder, Laura Spaulding is not only provides drug lab cleanup training, but is also an expert witness for drug lab cleanup matters.
We spend approximately 3 days with new franchisees on drug lab cleanup training. The training involves how to test, where to test, how to interpret lab results, what labs to use, how to decontaminate a property, the use of our proprietary chemicals, and properly drying a home out. After classroom training all franchisees and employees get experience with real life drug lab homes. The decontamination process is extremely thorough and the process must be followed exactly.
Too often we have seen meth lab cleanup contractors fail decontamination efforts. Unfortunately many States lack regulations which means that a meth lab cleanup technician can test their own work. This is a huge conflict of interest. Spaulding Decon's policy is to always require 3rd party testing to avoid this conflict. The process of drug lab cleanup is very physical and difficult. Home owners typically do not try to do this themselves. There is a huge learning curve and a typical home owner does not have access to all the equipment, chemicals and resources that a meth lab cleanup company has.

LinuxWorld Expo & Conference 2006
LinuxWorld is Germany's second big Open Source event, together with the LinuxTag. This year, it took place in Cologne from 14th to 16th of November. I decided to attend the conference on 14th and 15th, but to leave out the training sessions on the last day. This is the summary of my observations.
I arrived in Cologne Tuesday morning and was at Cologne fair ground right when the conference started at 11 o'clock. (The first positive thing I have to say about the conference is that it had really friendly starting times.)
The opening talk by Dr. Barbara Held from European e-Government services (IDABC) of the European Commission didn't quite catch my interest because I haven't yet been thinking much about Open Source Software on an european level. But I can confirm the speaker's competence. This wasn't just a publicity thing, Dr. Held really knows the FLOSS scene by experience. Apart from a lot of activity regarding the proliferation of Open Source Software around the European Commission, she told of a soon to be published study that researched the hypothetical impact of making all applications used at the European Commission free software. Sounds interesting!
In his following keynote, Wim Coekaerts, vice president of Linux development at Oracle, gave a situation analysis on Linux usage in Enterprise environments. Having to deal with such an environment every day at my job, there wasn't much news for me. Wim obviously hadn't brought his asbestos suit, so he wisely steered around the Unbreakable Linux topic most of the times. In the Q&A roundup, though, he emphasized that Oracle's new support offer didn't aim at "killing Red Hat", but was an issue of meeting customer demands. There was one point Wim shortly touched in his presentation that confirmed a weakness we frequently experience using Linux in a big data center: If we talk "Enterprise", we talk about supporting high-end hardware. Unfortunately, it still takes Linux a lot of time to adopt new technology. That has to change, and Oracle claims to drive that change, especially with their new Linux support initiative.
Jon "maddog" Hall's keynote was as entertaining as usual. The president of Linux International explained why "You WILL migrate" to Linux sooner or later, eventually making sure the audience didn't confuse him with Santa Claus or the all-knowing God.
"Mass storage uninterrupted" was the title of Heinz Mauelshagen's talk, a kernel developer at Red Hat. Heinz works on the Device Mapper, a powerful kernel module that adds features to Linux that so far have been available only with proprietory storage solutions. For example, you now can build a multi-path, mirrored storage system that is tolerant to all kinds of failures, be it a broken cable, SAN switch failure or a melting disk enclosure. With plugins for specific hardware like the HP MSA1000, you can easily build a high-availability storage system on top of the Device Mapper.
Martin Bracher held a talk about Xen in a training environment where he demonstrated how you can build a virtual Oracle cluster complete with shared virtual ISCSI storage on nothing more than a few Xen instances. Because my team runs a virtual data center with about 50 application servers and 10 Oracle databases on VMware ESX server, Martin's talk motivated me to give Xen a try myself -- there could be some costs to cut.
The last business talk on Tuesday gave some insight into the Enterprise environment at the Munich Business Fair. One interesting fact in this talk was that all cluster nodes at Munich Fair not only share their application data but also their OS disks on a cluster filesystem, so all servers boot directly from a shared root filesystem on the SAN. Therefore, reassigning a cluster node to another task (e.g. make a former Postfix node an Apache node) is allegedly almost as easy as rebooting the server. On a side note, speaker Thomas Merz displayed a misbehaviour common within inexperienced speakers: even though there were only three people in the audience (including me), he talked to the ceiling.
Wednesday began with keynotes again, the first one by Ravi Kalakota from Unisys titled "Leveraging Open Source for Service Oriented Architecture". He managed to pull through 47 slides crammed full with text and graphics in about 50 minutes and talked in breadth about how Unisys helps their customers to migrate from silo software systems to a service-based architecture. There were lots of buzzwords and acronyms, but also some insights, for example that licensing proprietory software for multi-core architectures is a new headache that opens another doors for Open Source Software.
The following keynote, "Linux Beyond the Data Center", was held by Dirk Hohndel of X11 and SuSE fame, now Director of Linux and Open Source Strategy at Intel. His talk was a direct opposite of the previous one and in hindsight the most interesting one. First, Dirk refrained from using slides at all, and second, his talk was chock full of criticism of Open Source Software. In his opinion -- which I share wholeheartedly -- Linux only does almost work in the data center, and almost completely not on the desktop. He sees the reason for both shortcomings in that most developers still don't think on a large enough scale for Enterprise usage and keep ignoring the common computer user's needs. Of course, many developers don't have access to a cluster of hundreds of servers, so they don't experience the challenges such an environment poses. On the desktop side, developers were, from Dirk's perspective, the least suitable people to decide how a desktop is supposed to work -- just give them some Xterms and you're done. For Dirk, the Apple desktop has such a tremendous success because everything provided does, other than on Linux, just work. (He also admitted that getting something to work that's not arranged for by Apple is next to impossible.) Where Linux was successful, though, he stated, is on appliances like routers, settop boxes or even mobile phones. In this growing market, the product's function set is clearly limited, but those few functions are made to work 100%. In Dirk's opinion, that's the mindset Linux developers have to come to: think on an even larger scale, have the common user in mind, and don't stop at the 80 or 90 percent of "works for me".
The first conference talk I listened to was "Open Source Integration in System and Network Management" by Claus Wickinghoff. This was the first product-centric talk I attended at this conference. The solution that his company Collax offers for system configuration management isn't really relevant for my work, but it uses a concept that I thought of myself some years ago: generating actual service configuration files from abstract, implementation-independent data. You could, for example, define a relay host, a few local domain names and some other stuff and generate from that a sendmail.cf as well as a main.cf or a exim.conf. That way, you can easily switch applications or clone a server by just regenerating configuration files.
Arthur Tyde, co-founder of the Free Standards Group, offered "The truth on Linux Management". He referred to Microsoft's "Get the Facts" campaign that claims that Open Source Software isn't suitable for Enterprise use. A study recently conducted by the FSG and OSDL showed other results: Linux is pretty good at being managed, even in big installations with some thousand servers. Additionally, the salary of Linux admins is getting better and more often passes by that of Windows administrators now. Linux is growing faster than Windows, too. He pointed out, though, that scaling out the Linux infrastructure also needs scalable administration processes: even if you have great admins using the right tools to be able to provision or patch a server within minutes, times add up if you happen to have several thousand boxes. This made me realize that just automating and speeding up the steps an admin would do manually doesn't do it any more. We need new concepts like the global shared root file system mentioned in the Munich Fair talk the day before.
The "FLOSS Weekly" podcast mentioned some interesting bits about Samba 4 in a recent episode. That's why I was looking forward to the "Samba Status Report" by german Samba hacker Volker Lendecke. Unfortunately, I received an urgent phone call that made me leave the talk early. Samba 4 is nonetheless something to look forward to.
You never know when you have to rescue your data, so I attended "Open Source System Recovery" where Kai Dupke pointed out the difference between backup and desaster recovery as well as the advantages that Open Source Software has in this area.
Finally, since I couldn't get a reservation on an earlier train, I had enough time to also visit "Gentoo, the meta-distribution" by Tobias Scherbaum. Having all those Gentoo hackers around me at work, this was a good opportunity to widen my Linux distribution horizon. I still prefer Ubuntu, but it was an interesting talk.
In conference pauses, I also visited the exhibition, but found nothing exceptionally interesting. Most booths were occupied by either the usual suspects like Red Hat or Novell or some vendor of software that I don't have a use for. The ".org area" sported booths of the FSF and projects like KDE, Gnome, openGroupware or Asterisk. Unfortunately, many of those booths showcased only a person occupied with her laptop instead of information material that could draw people's interest. Could someone give those hackers a lesson in marketing, please?
The only booth where I stayed longer was that of Zimbra, a company that offers a Web 2.0-style alternative to MS Exchange. What makes Zimbra different from established software like openXchange is that it also can be used offline: while working in offline mode, Zimbra stores your email, calendar entries and contact information locally, and when you're back online, everything gets synchronized with the central server again. You can rent a managed installation from one of Zimbra's business partners as well as install Zimbra on your own server. Of course, there's a free Open Source Edition with limited features.
To sum it up, the LinuxWorld Expo and Conference gave me the opportunity to catch up on recent developments in the FLOSS scene and get some fresh ideas how we can get more out of Open Source Software in our data center. Combined with a nice night out with ex-coworker Peter and his girlfriend Svenja, it were two days well spent.

Oversheeting is an excellent optionCAMCLAD offer oversheeting as an excellent option when extra insulation is required on an existing roof, or where a replacement would be too costly, such a replaceing an asbestos roof. Oversheeting is also a simple way of giving your building a facelift.
Could oversheeting fix your problem roof?
Oversheeting is a great way to solve roofing problems but with the added bonus of providing extra insulation as well. It can save you time, worry and most importantly, money. Oversheeting lets you give your building a facelift without the need to remove your old roof. It is also environmentally friendly in that it allows you to increase insulation, reducing energy usage and heating costs. It even allows for the safe containment of asbestos roofing without the need for expensive removal and the accompanying health and safety issues involved.
What is it?
Rather than removing the old roof and re-roofing the building, corrugated cladding is fitted over the top, hence the name oversheeting. There is a massive range of oversheeting systems and materials available to suit pretty much any requirement or budget and fitting is usually straightforward. The result is a new roof but without the hassle, or cost, of re-roofing.
What are the benefits of oversheeting?
There are many advantages to fitting oversheeting but here are some of the big ones:
It minimises disruption – the old roof is not removed so you will not have to move into new premises or down tools while it is fitted. Your business can carry on pretty much as normal.
Allows you to add insulation – many oversheeting systems come with foam insulation integrated into the panels. If they don't it is easy for us to lay insulation on top of the old roof when we fit the overhseeting. In both cases the air gap between the original roof and the oversheet strengthens the impact of the insulation.
It saves you money. Today's oversheeting solutions are light, compact and easy to fit. This means they take less time to fit than a new roof. They give you all the benefits of a new roof at a greatly reduced cost. Fitting them involves less labour and your old roof doesn't have to be taken away, reducing your labour and haulage costs.
You can replace asbestos roofs without danger or hassle. The dangerous part of an asbestos roof is the fibres. Usually, since the sheets are made from a type of cement, these are safely trapped. Unless the panels cracked or broken – during removal, for example – an asbestos roof is no more dangerous than MDF. If your asbestos roof is leaky and needs to be replaced, oversheeting is the ideal solution. New panels which do not contain asbestos are fitted over the top allowing you to leave the original roof where it is. That circumvents the risky and expensive removal process, adds insulation to your building and fixes the leaks in one job.
It delivers results. Using oversheeting allows you to give your building a facelift at a relatively low price. It is just as good as a new roof and is a great, cost effective way of caring for your building.

The city for crab cakes, Orioles fans, row houses and affordable, working class neighborhoods.
Think of Baltimore and crabs come to mind -- the edible kind, that is. This working class port town is anything but crabby. In fact, its adoring residents call it Charm City, and it must be doing something right; it ranks in the top ten best U.S. cities for singles, couples and women -- not so much for crabs, though. The waterfront of bustling Inner Harbor boasts dozens of restaurants that serve the tasty crustaceans... even without a jacket and tie.

Performance comparison between photovoltaic and thermoradiative devices
- "Performance comparison between photovoltaic and thermoradiative devices", Journal of Applied Physics, DOI: 10.1063/1.5004651, Vol. 122, No. 24, December 2017. ,
MERL Contacts:
Research Area:
Photovoltaic (PV) and thermoradiative (TR) devices are power generators that use the radiative energy transfer between a hot and a cold reservoir. For PV devices, the semiconductor at the cold side (PV cell) generates electric power; for TR devices, the semiconductor at the hot side (TR cell) generates electric power. In this work, we compare the performance of the photovoltaic and thermoradiative devices, with and without the non-radiative processes. Without non-radiative processes, PV devices generally produce larger output powers than TR devices. However, when non-radiative processes become important, the TR can outperform the PV devices. This conclusion applies to both far-field and near-field based devices. A key difference in efficiency between PV and TR devices is pointed out.

In effect to regulations passed in July 2014, the governor of New York made it legal for eligible patients with qualifying conditions the use of medical cannabis. Also known as registered organizations, cannabis dispensaries are the vendors tasked with manufacturing and distributing medical cannabis in New York. Ten cannabis dispensaries are currently operational state-wide, but the state has yet to accept new applications. Five of those were added on August 1, 2017.
The Move to Legalize Recreational Cannabis
On August 2, 2018, New York's Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that he had set up a working group to write a bill aimed at legalizing and regulating cannabis based on recommendations from the State Department of Health. This was a big step toward legalizing cannabis and if a new law is enacted, it would put the state in a position to have potentially one of the largest recreational cannabis markets in the U.S. The market is approximated to be worth roughly $3.1 billion, and about $1.1 billion of that will be from New York City.
The State of Medical Cannabis Market in New York
The addition of patients in the state's medical cannabis program is in high gear, and the recent approval of MMJ as a substitute for opioids has the massive potential of substantially boosting the sales. The number of registered patients has nearly tripled. Since the last quarter of 2016, an estimated 37,000 patients have been enrolled in the state's medical cannabis program, a 183 percent increase. The numbers of practitioners registered to certify patients for medical cannabis use has increased exponentially to more than 1,190. In 2016, medical sales amounted to $35.7 million, with the sales expected to peak to $253.5 million in 2021. With the massive increase in MMJ patients, the market looks promising.
A newer regulation that took effect on December 8, 2017, allowed dispensaries to manufacture and distribute additional products including solid and semi-solid products such as lozenges, effervescent and chewable tablets; tropical such as lotions, ointments, and patches; and certain non-smokable forms of ground plant material. Also, several recommendations were implemented, including allowing physician assistants and nurse practitioners to do home deliveries and the addition of chronic pain and post-traumatic stress disorder as qualifying conditions.
American Cannabis Company Can Help
Venturing into the New York medical cannabis market is no easy feat. The limited supply of licenses and the tough competition make applications challenging. Entrepreneurs should brace themselves for a tough ride and work with leaders in cannabis consulting if they want to open a dispensary in New York successfully.

Around ninety percent of millionaires are self-made, first-generation rich, a number that's been stable in the US since the 1880s. And two-thirds of millionaires are the self-employed. This is the great hope of those becoming entrepreneurs. However, if you don't know how to run a business as compared to owning your job, you won't be able to scale up the business to provide a decent standard of living, much less grow the business to the point it can provide you with a steady stream of income while others manage it. If you don't know what you are doing, your business is likely to become one of the fifty percent of businesses that fail in the first few years. So what degrees teach you what you need to know to become a successful entrepreneur?
Accounting is a great college degree for entrepreneurs on several fronts. Around 80% of self-employed millionaires, according to the book "The Millionaire Next Door", are entrepreneurs. The other quarter or so were professionals who owned their own business.
>> RELATED: When You Give an Entrepreneur an MBA…
By working on the business and harnessing the work of their employees, these entrepreneurs build the company and improve the founder's net worth. And unlike many other types of businesses, accounting firms can be set up almost anywhere in the nation and serve everyone from the general public at tax time to small businesses that need bookkeeping help. You can even get help from a big brand name by opening a tax preparation firm franchise to skip the need to market yourself.
Finance Degrees
Finance degrees differ somewhat from accounting. While accounting literally involves counting the money and tracking the numbers, finance tends to involve managing the money. Those with finance degrees often become financial analysts, credit managers, and financial advisors. One road to wealth is through smart investing and someone with a finance degree is ideally suited to do exactly that using a portion of the high salaries they receive. Open a financial planning consulting business or rise up through the ranks of a small business as a manager, and you could end up self-employed and wealthy.
>> RELATED: How Important is College Education to Entrepreneurial Success?
Business Degree
Few degrees better prepare to you to run a business than a business degree. Many business degrees teach you how to market a product, design products per public feedback, sell something, or manage employees. There are many different specializations for business majors like finance, marketing or international relations. And if you earned a rather generic business degree, you can still specialize later by earning an online master's degree in public administration, international business, innovation, and design, or another discipline.
Any business program you complete should teach you about how to lead a business, not just market and sell a product. This leadership experience is why some business majors start a career as a public administration and end up running their own consulting, design or engineering firms later on. Others start a career in public administration after earning an online public administration degree to gain management experience and then move into the private sector as managers. After all, it is all management.
If you want to become an entrepreneur, your top choices are to study accounting, economics, and finance to understand how to manage money and identify opportunities.

One of the biggest success stories in France's Ligue 1 this season has to be Lille. The club are no strangers to success this decade after they won the league and cup double in 2011, but that was their first league success in 57 years. But this season has been the clubs strongest since then and they have dabbled in the transfer market last summer spending 1/10th what many European superpowers spend to get into the top 4 and Champions League.
Currently Lille are in 2nd place and while they are 17 points behind league leaders PSG they are also 5 points ahead of Lyon. But how have Lille improved over recent seasons?
Lille brought in 16 players in the transfer window spending £48m doing so, that is an average of 3m per player, incredible business in 2018/19 and to further that they were clever as the average age of the players is 25, not too old or young and just in their prime.
And the club made a profit this season on players as they sold on 20 players and got £54m making a clear profit of £6m. Their highest sale was Yves Bissouma who went to Premier League side Brighton for £17m. And the clubs biggest spend was Jonathan Ikone who came from PSG for less than £5m. Lille have been incredibly business minded, spotting talent but refusing to pay through the nose for it.
Many players for Lille came back on loan but some of their best buys have been Jose Fonte who has been terrific in defence this season and was bought from China, sure he was 34 and a possible risk but for less than £2m he has brought with him bags of experience. Jonathan Bamba came on a free transfer from Saint Etienne at just 22 and has been another integral part of the squad.
Manager Christophe Galtier has been able to identify who he needed and in what position and has made the most of it with a tight budget in only his 2nd season with the club. Owner Gerard Lopez has been clever enough to give Galtier a chance at coaching Lille, not because his resume is brimming with trophies or that he has years of experience but because Galtier was a former player who played almost 100 times for the club in the 1990s. This project is about bringing a togetherness to the club and rooting it in older players having a chance to come back and prove themselves.
Lopez bought Lille in 2016 with a project of getting to the Champions League, which the club are now on course to do 3 years later. The key has been how they have sold for more and bought for less. On a lower scale Lille have played the market much like Monaco and it is bringing with it much success.
Can Lille get a Champions League place this season? The odds look good. Not only are they 5 points clear of Lyon, but even if they slipped to 3rd that would still be good to qualify for the qualifiers. But it is all about getting that automatic place. Lille have been 2nd for most of the season and it would seem cruel if Lyon swallowed up that chance in the final straight.
For now Lille look good for 2nd- a great ownership that has blossomed in just a few seasons and a tight way of working on limited budgets has actually brought the team together, and pound for pound Lille have proven to be the most improved team in France this season.

The abduction and murder of well-known city-based cardiologist Dr Deepak Kaura was committed by the three accused in a 'sophisticated and pre-planned manner', observed the court while sentencing the accused to life term under various charges on Thursday.
The convicts left no stone unturned while planning the crime from stealing a Honda Activa and documents of a PGI employee and then using the stolen documents to buy mobile numbers on the employee's name to be used in the crime, to selling off the Activa further using forged RCs procured after a false newspaper advertisement. As if this was not enough they fraudulently used official PGI mobile numbers meant for PGI staff during the crime, posed as someone else to befriend Dr Kaura and bought a gift using a fake name.
In an attempt to further cover up their crime, they received calls on Kaura's mobile phone even after his death in order to evade suspicion, pointed out the the court while pronouncing the sentence.
According to the 116-page long judgment by Additional Sessions Judge Jaswinder Sheemar, a total of 40 witnesses and 'voluminous' evidence were examined in a trial that ran for around two-and-a-half years, resulting in the conviction of a Panchkula-based couple and a PGI junior engineer who hatched a well-planned conspiracy to commit the crime.
The convicts include Deepak Sharma, his wife Honey Aggarwal, and former PGI official Vishal Vij. Deepak and Vishal had earlier been accused in cases of vehicle thefts.
Following are some of the observations by the ASJ and some facts regarding the case:
- Deepak Sharma was engaged in private business and claimed to be financially sound. Honey, meanwhile, had done her PhD in Bio-technology and was a gold medalist at the post-graduate level. She had qualified UGC (NET) four times and was working as a research assistant in Thapar University, Patiala, at the time of the crime. She had given birth to a child only a few months before the murder. Vishal was a JE (telephone and mobiles).
- Kaura was a wealthy doctor and lived a lavish life. He had only recently come out of prison where he was lodged for abetting his wife's suicide. One of his hospital's employees testified that he had attempted suicide while in prison, but was apparently leading a happy life in December 2011, and engaged to be re-married when he was murdered.
- The convicts learnt of his wealth and reputation as a womaniser, and hatched a conspiracy much before the murder took place. They got an advertisement published to sell off a stolen scooter, forged the RC based on the advertisement and also procured two SIM cards on the name of the original owner of the scooter on December 7, 2011. In addition, Vishal managed to procure two more official PGI numbers meant for the staff.
- These numbers were almost exclusively used for the crime. One of Surekha's numbers was turned on December 12, and only used by Honey to contact Kaura posing as one Jyotika. It was switched off after the murder. Call details showed that all other numbers, too, were used by the convicts during this period to talk to each other.
- Mobile tower locations proved that movement of the convicts matched that of the victim on the day of the crime.
- 'Jyotika' had bought a shirt for Kaura as a gift from Sector 17 after befriending him. The shirt was recovered from Kaura's hospital, and its bill from Honey's house.
- Kaura had, in turn, bought a Samsung handset for 'Jyotika', which was recovered from Honey's house.
- Kaura was last seen on the evening of December 20. Two of his employees saw him sitting with a woman in his Tata Aria in Sector 19. The former later identified the woman as Honey after she was arrested.
- On December 20, Honey alias Jyotika took Kaura in his car to her house in Panchkula, and they were secretly followed by Deepak and Vishal. The three of them then overpowered him, gagged him using a plaster tape (later recovered) and injected him four times with pentazocine, a sedative (all used and unused injections were later recovered). The prosecution never specified which of the three actually administered the drug.
- An expert testified that a dose not below 320 ml of the sedative can be fatal. Kaura was injected with 120 ml. But he was injected on his chest and thighs (unusual body parts for an injection), and his mouth was taped. All these factors had a "cumulative effect", held the court. Plus, the viscera and chemical reports held that he died due to pentazocine poisoning.
- To throw dust in the eyes of the police, the trio answered calls on Kaura's phone and even made a call until 11.16 pm, though Kaura had been killed by 10.30 pm. His phone was then switched off and never recovered.
- The prosecution claimed that all three of them confessed to the crime to Mandeep Sodhi, a mutual acquaintance of the victim and the accused. But the court ruled out the confession after defence pointed out lapses in the theory.
- The defence claimed that some recoveries were planted, but the court ruled it out because the police would not specifically plant pentazocine injections when they did not know which drug killed the victim (the chemical report came months later). Also, the bill of the shirt was issued many days ago.
- Although the prosecution did not attribute any motive to the crime, the court said it was very evident that it was to rob him. The 'last seen theory', call detail records and mobile tower locations, recoveries and testimonies of the witnesses established the guilt of all accused beyond reasonable doubt, said the court.

- The Coordinate Reference Table along the bottom of the window.
- The Mouse Coordinate Label following the user's cursor.

Finish outline creation by clicking the "Apply" button on the Toolbox, or by pressing the "Enter" key. If the user wishes instead to cancel building creation they can press the "Cancel" button on the Toolbox, or press the "Esc" key on their keyboard.
Outline creation by default has a 15 degree angle snap enabled, that snap point placement to form clean angles to the previously placed line segment. This can be disabled via a toggle box on the Editor Toolbox Tool window
Upon creation of the initial building outline, a dialog will pop up for entering building information.
Building Details
The building details dialog allows building information such as the name, number of floors, number of basements, and the labels for aforementioned floors to be edited.
Building Editor Toolbox
The building editor toolbox contains all the various tools used to edit a building.
The following buttons make up the top row, from left to right: "Edit Building Details", "Save", "Cancel", "Delete", "Undo", and "Redo".
- "Edit Building Details" brings up the Building Details window.
- "Save" will end the editing session and persist all changes.
- "Cancel" will end the editing session without saving any changes.
- "Delete" will delete the building from the user's subscription, and end the editing session.
The second row contains tools for modifying the current floors outline, from left to right they are "Add Polygon", "Edit Polygon", "Cut Polygon", "Copy to other Floors", and "Edit Vertices".
- "Add Polygon" allows a user to select additional area to be part of the building floor. It is not required to overlap existing areas
- "Edit Polygon" allows the user to scale, rotate, or translate the outline as a whole.
- "Cut Polygon" allows a user to select an area to remove from the building floor.
- "Copy to other Floors" applies the current floors outline to additional floors as selected.
- "Edit Vertices" allows for fine tuned editing of a floor by translating, adding or removing individual corners.
The third row contains tools for setting or modifying the current floors Floorplan. From left to right they are "Add Floorplan", "Edit Floorplan", "Edit Floorplan with Control Points", and "Remove Floorplan".
- "Add Floorplan" allows the user to select an image to use as a floorplan and places it on the outline.

- "Edit Floorplan with Control Points" allows the user to identify points on the image, and their corresponding points on the map, to create a best fit of the image.
- "Remove Floorplan" removes the floorplan from the current floor
Editor Tools
Upon entering one of the various editor tool options, an expansion to the Editor Toolbox will appear, detailing light instructions, and showing any modifiers or toggles available. As well as containing the Apply and Cancel buttons for any changes made during the usage of the tool. Modifiers will light up when the appropriate key is pressed and held. Toggles will have a checkbox for enabling or disabling.
Edit Outline / Edit Floorplan
The "Edit Outline" and "Edit Floorplan" tools work in a similar manner, they add a rectangular area around the object. On that area, there are several handles that can be interacted with.
- The Scaling handles can be dragged around to scale the outline or floorplan appropriately. Scaling has two modes; locked aspect ratio and unlocked aspect ratio, which is controlled by the shift modifier key.
- The Rotate handle can be dragged to rotate the outline or floorplan around the Rotate Pivot.
- The area itself can be dragged to translate the floorplan or outline.
Edit Floorplan with Control Points
The "Edit Floorplan with Control Points" tool splits the Window into two screens. The left half is the familiar map visualizer, and the right half is a viewer for the Floorplan image. This tool allows the user to click points on both the Global map, and the Image, in order for the software to fit the image to those constrained point associations as best as it can.


text: Brand MarketingQ&A: Kylie Jenner Opens Up About Her Online Haters and Those Hard-to-Get Lip Kits'Being a young socialite on the internet, it comes with a lot of bullying'By Emma Bazilian|April 10, 2016 ShareBy Emma Bazilian|April 10, 2016 Share Kylie Jenner's got a hit reality show, endorsement deals, and the attention of millions of fans on Instagram, Snapchat and more. Brands like Levi's are lining up to catch some of her magic. She's an entrepreneur whose lip kits sell out in a flash, and a clothing designer to boot. She's also doing good for society, with an anti-bullying campaign. The millennial generation's hottest social star spoke with us about her passion for brands, expanding her business, and what she won't share on Instagram. Adweek: How do you decide which brands to work with? Kylie Jenner: I have to be passionate about the brand and just love it. It has to be a perfect fit. I don't work with anything that doesn't work with my brand. Why do you think the response to your lip kits has been so huge? I feel like people trust my makeup decisions. Before I had a cosmetics line, I couldn't even buy the products that I loved because I would go into stores and they'd be, like, "Everything's sold out. Everyone wants to buy the color lipstick you're using." It got frustrating. So I kind of just wanted to take matters into my own hands and create my own line and show people what I actually use and what I actually love. Have you been thinking about doing official ads for the brand? It's so successful right now that I don't really want to do advertising. But I want to do some cool stuff. Commercials would be amazing. Just something fun once we can get in the rhythm of mass amounts of stuff. Do you think that at some point you'll start selling it in stores? I've been thinking about it. Definitely not in the next year. But if I were to sell in stores, I don't know that I would go to a big retailer. I would probably just do everything on my own. But that is still in discussion. It seems like part of the reason the lip kits have been so popular is because they're so hard to get. Do you want to keep the brand small enough that it stays in such demand? What's interesting is that it's not small at all. We only keep making more and more every single week and it sells out faster and faster. Literally, I pray that it lasts more than 15 minutes every single time. I want people who just feel like buying a kit to be able to go online and buy it. I want that so bad. But right now, it doesn't seem possible. You said in an interview last year that you're "flashier" on social media than in real life. Is that something that still holds true for you? Yeah, of course. I think that's true for a lot of people, actually. You can't really tell who a person is from, like, an eight-second Snapchat video or an Instagram. I only post on Instagram or Snapchat what I want people to see, you know? But there's a whole other side to me that people don't know. How is the real Kylie different from your social media image? I feel like people want to see me have a cool hair color and dress a certain way and have pretty makeup and heels. If they were to see me in public, they would expect me to look like that. It's also fun for me, dressing up. That's always been me, since day one, but it's also exhausting for everyday life.Continue ReadingPages: 1 2 Sharehttp://adweek.it/1qCtrK4 copy Adweek Adweek

Kelli with KJ Design Pro is truly a PRO! I met Kelli when she was doing a large project for our Chamber of Commerce in Rio Vista, we were advertising on the large map and Kelli was assigned to create the ads and place them on the advertising area. She was so creative and did a beautiful job, so I hired her to do all of my ads and my new logo for my Real Estate business. She not only understood what I wanted but blew me away with her work. I have been in business for over 10 years and working with Kelli I felt like someone finally got it! She does such a nice job with color and design, and makes our business stand out in print. Thank you Kelli!!
I was struggling with my website design. Within hours of finding Kelli, she had developed the site. Kelli was patient and listened carefully to what I wanted. Although I am based in the UK, communication was regular and easy. Kelli is a delight to work with and I hope our relationship will continue to grow with my website.
My name is Mia Munayer and I am the founder of the Golden Gate Bridge suicide prevention organization, Bridgewatch Angels. I sought Kelli's assistance with creating a logo for my organization. As a branding expert, Kelli knows her craft. She asked many questions about our organization before embarking on the project. The final result was a logo that represented our organizational values and mission. She spent hours working to develop artwork that would be easily recognizable and increase our following. We proudly display our logo on the armbands we wear during our Bridgewatch Angels events and am proud of the recognition that has come from such a professional logo.
Kelli was very professional and easy to work with. We had our site designed and launched within 2 weeks. We are very happy with her work.
Let the experts do what they do they best!! What more can I say about KJ Design Pro. I reached out to Kelli after realizing that I was absolutely NOT an expert at web site design. Like so many others, I believed the marketing from various sites that I could "easily design your own website!" Nothing could be further from the truth. The minute I spoke with Kelly, I knew I was in the best hands. She was patient, collaborative and responsive. Not only did she understand exactly what I was looking for, but she was creative and thoughtful in her approach to the design of my site. I receive constant praise for my gorgeous and colorful site and I give all the credit to Kelli of KJ Design Pro - Thank you Kelli for making me look good!
Our web site was old and out of touch. Kelli not only created an eye catching web site but made us relevant in this tech-savvy generation. Fully engaged, fully on target, focused and on point! (and very patient)
I was luckily referred to KJ Design Pro when starting my business earlier this year. I could not be happier with my results. My website is more then I could have ever imagined. I am constantly getting compliments on my website and branding (logo). I want to say I have referred many businesses to Kelli for rebranding and it makes me feel so proud of my business and brand! Kelli is a marketing genius! I will forever be a happy client!
Working with Kelli was a breeze. I'm an artist and the page she designed for me is gorgeous! She's also a wonderful and patient teacher and set me up in SquareSpace, which is so easy to use! She even linked my page to Instagram so that my latest pieces are always available of my site. One of my artist friends rated my page as a "freakin' WOW." My sentiments exactly!
Oh my goodness, our site is beautiful! I can't stop looking at it. This has been a long journey for us to find someone who could represent our vision in the manner that you have done. We could not have done it without your expertise! I'm so glad the Board picked you to help us get this out. It has been a pleasure working with you. I'm sure we will be calling on you for future help.
I have extensive experience in graphic and content design for small to large websites. We needed someone with Kelli's rare talent to help us on short notice. She delivered an awesome website that will be viewed by a global audience. So far, every person who visits our website says it is one of the best they have seen. Her eye for choosing a color pallet, spacing, variety and vivid images is superb. Kelli also made sure our website is easy to maintain and expand. She is also helping us optimize placement in search engines. Bottom line: KJ Design Pro (Kelli) will give anyone or organization the highest caliber of skill and customer service along with value … which are very hard to find in today's business world.
As a College Professor and business consultant I have had experience with many different types of website but was looking for one that had the quality of a good site but the ease of maintenance for a Social site for my Golf group. KJ Design Pro created a website that exceeded my expectations.It was easy to access for all members and also easy to maintain necessary monthly changes. Although I have never managed a site before, both Kelli and Square Space made the experience very painless. I would highly recommend KJ Design Pro for any of your website needs.
Kelli with KJ Design Pro came to our office to see and understand what we do and who we are as manufacturers of Custom Cabinetry. After meeting with us she set up our Website with pictures, wrote the copy and keep us constantly updated to be sure we were all on the same page. She used a company called Square Space which is very easy to navigate, so we can add new projects. Working with Kelli @ KJ Design Pro was effortless, she made us a beautiful Website and was very engaged with the process. We highly recommend Kelli for you Web Design needs.
I have worked with Kelli in creating ads for my Delta marina businesses of Ox Bow Marina and Korth's Pirates Lair Marina for the last 12 years. I have constantly been amazed and impressed by the artistic beauty, graphic design and talent that Kelli and her KJ Design Pro business brings to the layout of a beautiful ad. I am so impressed by her ability and it is such a pleasure to work with her on the quarterly changes I often need to give my ads a seasonal look. Her pricing is extremely reasonable and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for quality in the advertising outreaches they do for their business.
Kelli was extremely helpful and thorough during the construction of my beautiful new SquareSpace website. Kelli left no stones unturned and guided me through the entire process that led to a very satisfying end result . I am very happy with the SquareSpace design as well as Kelli's customization . There is a user friendly backend allowing easy updating. In addition to being a talented web designer , Kelli is also very up to date with all the current trends and maneuvers that can lead to your site being a successful business venture.
I own JAMS Music in Dublin, CA, and needed to revamp my website to capture the appearance and feeling when one enters our recently expanded store. After extensively looking at options including in house web building, I chose to go with Kelli for multiple reasons. She sat with me and listened as I explained the vision I had for the site. Kelli developed a good solution and structure to best suit my store's needs. She assured me the project could get delivered within the time frame I needed it. In addition, she provided training for me to be able to maintain the website regularly, as well as on going support. I strongly think I got a great value for the amount paid and the quality of product delivered. However, the biggest reason I chose to go with Kelli, was because of her artistic flare and creative ability to really make our site pop and stand out. I wanted our website to have an appearance unmatched by other sites in the same industry. She was able to deliver something unique, colorful, and personal. I'm incredibly pleased with my website, and highly recommend Kelli for your creative needs. I will continue to use her for my web and other marketing aspects. Thank you for all you have done for JAMS Music.
Kelli re-vamped our old ugly and confusing website over a year ago and made it an attractive and easily navigable site that attracts and holds prospective students and their families. We are constantly getting remarks from the public that one reason they chose us over our competition was because of our well-designed website. She also takes care of all of our ad campaigns and design work which has increased business dramatically. I'll never be able to thank Kelli enough for her hard work and expertise. Her easy accessibility for site maintenance is a real plus too.
Kelli is the best there is! She has designed maps, websites, graphics, you name it. Everything she does is of absolute first quality! Kelli has a great imagination as well as the technical skills to bring an idea to a finished product. She has designed our website and all promotional material for all of our largest events, including The Taste Of The Delta. Kelli did an incredible job with our 64 page CA Delta Travel Guide!!! Designed, Printed and completed all the advertising Sales, this was a huge undertaking and it was executed and completed it flawlessly! I highly recommend Kelli for all of your creative needs!
Kelli completed our two restaurant websites for Baci Cafe in Danville and Cafe Main in Pleasanton. We tried to build sites with another well known national web developer however, It ended up being very cookie cutter and boring. As you can see today, our sites are innovative and professional. Kelli and her team took the time to understand our restaurants go to market strategy and executed that into our websites. Additionally, she designed and printed several marketing pieces for both restaurants such as promotional outdoor banners, set up our Social Media Networks and designed various print collateral pieces. Kelli exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend her for website development and all creative needs.
Listen, I am sure that this is just one of many thank you's to follow, but I just want to say thank you so much for your work You are so great to work with and I really do appreciate the personal effort that you put into your work, You are just too darn great at what you do! I am quietly very optimistic about this site. This is a new idea and as I have told friends, it will either be a bomb or something great! Your personal touch, creativity, intelligence, patience, extraordinary talent, quality of work and attention to detail has made this a piece of artwork. I can't thank you enough and I am so glad that I found you, It will be my pleasure to work with you again and again............thank you Kelli....Thank you Kelli ps .................... u......, u........ u gotta gift!)
When it comes to artistic matters, you either have the "eye" or you don't. An artist can improve their skills through study and various techniques and tools, but the basic creative concept must come from within. There are many that can do a passable job on mundane projects. But when it really, really matters I trust Kelli's creative talent to get the job done for me. With a little basic direction her output always far exceeds my expectations. And that talent is simply not something that you can learn from a book.
Kelli developed a well engineered, fast loading, state of the art web site for Sabah International. Not only was she creative, but she was flexible and informative throughout the development process. Our goal was to facilitate the needs of our current and potential customers, and Kelli helped reach our goal..
When I wanted to recreate my business website and logo I met with Kelli, we talked about my vision. She listened to what I said and created a site that is better than what I had envisioned. She was always available for me when I need help with projects and I consider her part of the Murphy's Paw family.
Just want to say thank you Kelli for helping my business achieve the professional image we deserve! I truly appreciate all the personal time and effort dedicated to creating both the logo and website that was PERFECT for our company. Thank you for the marketing ideas and concepts that gave us the edge we were looking for to compete against our competitors, such as our new Facebook page, links to YouTube and our very own Tweet on Twitter!
If you're looking for the best person to produce all your digital and print media then look no further as you have found her. Kelli consistently produces the greatest content with the latest cutting edge technology. She always goes above and beyond for any project she handles for me and the results show. When I need something or know something is coming up that revolves around design, content development and digital marketing I won't even consider anyone else handling my business needs. You will not be disappointed with Kelli's services. I would give her more stars if I could!
Kelli built my web site and did a great job. More importantly, they are supportive now as we need changes and updates. This personal touch is something you can only get from doing business with local consultants who are concerned and care about the quality of their work. A web designer that makes me look good, makes herself look good.
Well the GROOVE Doctors band has a new web site which was created by Kelli in Pleasanton, CA. If you ever are thinking about a NEW web site be sure to give Kelli a call, sheis an incredibly professional designer who is very easy to work with and does amazing work.Kelli took the ideas that the GROOVE Doctors' guitarist (Jim Kalogrides) and I had and they exceeded our expectations with their execution of the project. Kelli, who has a graphic artist background, took all of our logos and graphics and recreated entirely. She made it incredibly easy for Jim and I to make updates on our own to things that change often such as our Band Schedule.I have been in sales since I got out of college in 1980 (Chemistry degree from UC Davis) and I have a very "customer service" slanted view towards business. It is not very often that I am blown away by project outcome like I was on this web site project by the work Kelli did. I'll say it again, Kelli exceeded my expectations on this project and I give her the absolute highest recommendation to anyone who ever needs some web site, graphics or marketing work done.
