Lyra Chosen as CAMP's Social Media Agency
Guess who's doing CAMP's social media? We're so happy to be working with this innovative bunch of marketers!
Guess who's doing CAMP's social media? We're so happy to be working with this innovative bunch of marketers!
Law firms have a lot to think about when it comes to social media. Here are 3 key things that every law firm should keep in mind before jumping online:
At Lyra Communications, we're lucky enough to work online every day, and unlucky enough to see the same mistakes that drive us crazy!
Ah, the reoccurring question marketers have struggled with for almost 10 years: how often should we tweet?
Ready to launch your company's social media feeds? Fantastic –but wait! Do you have these three things in place?
Facebook Emojis are finally here! Just as we finished writing our latest blog about Facebook's impending "Dislike" button, we woke up to more exciting social media news—And it appears our hunch about a new way to express empathy on Facebook was right!
Now that summer is coming to an end and people are back from vacation, it's a fantastic time to recapture your audience by revamping your social media for fall.
Ah, the one line that every social media agency/consultant/freelancer is familiar with. And generally it means that it's simply a matter of time before the client comes back and say 'yeah, so that didn't really work' and we give them a hug/buy them a scotch and explain to them that the "we'll do it ourselves"…
Now this blog assumes that you already have great social media AND a great blog, and we're looking at how to bring them together. After all, 1+1=3 (the magic of compound effort!)
You know what you want to achieve from your social This seems like common sense but, in reality, many organizations will hire a social media team without clear goals. Our advice is make sure you know what you want. Provided you're dealing with professionals (i.e. us!) your team will let you know if your goals…

Tom Hussey Photographer
These images are part of a series of photos created for an advertisement for medication to help people suffering from Alzheimers. Alzheimers is a condition where recent memories are stripped away leaving the sufferer left with memories of their youth. So we the mirror used as a way of showing how the person sees themselves, in contrast to how they appear to those around them.
You can find lots of artists and photographers using image manipulation software like photoshop to play with reflections in mirrors, but this is the most striking and effective I have seen.
You could have a go yourself using two photographs of reflections in a mirror using photoshop, the hard edges of the mirror makes fitting together the two different images fairly easy. You could create an image that looks at differences between how we see ourselves and how we are seen by others

A selection of shots with lovely miss Katherine.
I approached this shoot with a far different image in mind, aiming for something rather dark, incorporating our decaying yet beautiful autumn foliage. The outfits were chosen by Katherine, along the guidelines of being bold, bright and playful, adding contrast to said scenery.
After spending more time sourcing for locations, I came across some very interesting features-both natural and non- that called to be photographed!
Katherine and I worked well together, coming up with many images, edited and styled in varying ways, yet all issuing a youthful, innocent serendipity with a sidelong glance towards the sexy side.

iHeart Throws Back To Classic Hip-Hop In New Orleans
iHeartMedia flipped Rock "Rock 96.3" K242CE Meraux/99.5 WRNO-HD2 New Orleans LA to Classic Hip-Hop "Throwback 96.3" today.
The new format flanks sister Urban AC 98.5 WYLD-FM and Urban "Q93" WQUE which currently hold the top two spots in the market. With rumors of Entercom preparing to make a format change of their own in the market, it appears this change like that done by iHeart in Tampa last month was to potentially fill the hole they think would hurt their top two stations.
The Rock format registered a 0.7 share in the Fall 2016 Nielsen Audio ratings.

Does anyone know where I can get a gas cap for Rossion Q1?
Does anyone know where I can get a gas cap for Rossion Q1?
This may or may not be the cap...closest i've found. Willy will probably know for sure. (might be best to contact Ridetech and measure yours first to just get the cap only?)
and in black, with straight filler neck like Noble/Rossion:
Ridetech website difficult to search on, but they say they may be contacted via several means... good luck, let us know (mine is missing keys, so i'd be interested in another also)
HMMM - after further searching, apparently this is the OEM manufacturer and size (well, like i looked on the bottom of my cap!) - with lock added (optional)

Thanks for the info. I will be contacting newton about new cap and will let you know the result.

Dani with William, her new brother (Dani's Story)
Dani was born in 1998, in Las Vegas, to Michelle Crockett.
Michelle has military connections.
Michelle's husband was a veteran of the Vietnam war and died in 1997.
He died as a result of exposure to the Pentagon's 'Agent Orange'.
Michelle has an IQ score of 77, much below average.
Michelle doesn't know the name of the Dani's father.
("The Girl in the Window" / Wild at heart - NYPOST.com)
Michelle moved to Plant City, Florida, where she was 'frequently seen with strange men in casinos'.
(Plant City is near MacDill Airforce Base, reputed to be connected to the CIA's MK ULTRA experiments on children)
Michelle lived in a rented house with two adult sons, one of them mentally retarded, and a boyfriend.
As early as 2002, someone called the child abuse hotline about a child "left unattended for days with a retarded older brother, never seen wearing anything but a diaper."
The authorities, as usual, decided not to rescue the child.
In 2005, when Dani was nearly 7, "a neighbor saw Dani's pale, wan face appear in the window - and then quickly vanish."
The authorities were called, for the third time.
Dani's house was filled with human waste and cockroaches.
Dani, semi naked, lay on a torn mouldy mattress on the floor.
Her ribs stuck out.
Her matted hair crawled with lice.
Her skin was covered in bites, rashes and sores.
Dani was taken to a hospital. ("The Girl in the Window")
Dani today
Dani couldn't chew or swallow solid food.
She had never been to school or previously seen a doctor.
The hospital doctor now wrote: "the child will be disabled for the rest of her life."
She wouldn't make eye contact.
She couldn't talk.
Medical tests, including brain scans, found nothing innately wrong with Dani.
But, "there was no light in her eye, no response or recognition. . . . We saw a little girl who didn't even respond to hugs or affection."
According to Dani's first teacher: "She had a lot of episodes of great agitation, yelling, flailing her arms, rolling into a fetal position.
"She'd curl up in a closet, just to be away from everyone.
"She didn't know how to climb a slide or swing on a swing. She didn't want to be touched." ("The Girl in the Window")
William, Diane, Dani, Bernie
Bernie and Diane Lierow, who have young son called William, decided to adopt Dani.
When Bernie first met Dani at her school, "Danielle turned toward him and her eyes seemed to focus.
"He held out his hand. She let him pull her to her feet."
Danielle's teacher hadn't seen her warm to anyone so quickly.
Dani let Bernie push her gently on the swing.
"When it was time for them to part, Bernie swore he saw Danielle wave." ("The Girl in the Window")
That night, bernie had a dream.
"Two giant hands slid through his bedroom ceiling, the fingers laced together. Dani was swinging on those hands, her dark eyes wide, thin arms reaching for him." ("The Girl in the Window")
Bernie and Diane brought Dani home on Easter weekend 2007.
"They gave her a doll; she bit off its hands...
"They took her to the beach; she screamed and wouldn't put her feet in the sand...
"She couldn't sit still to watch TV or look at a book...
"When they tried to brush her teeth or comb her hair, she kicked and thrashed...
"She wouldn't lie in a bed, wouldn't go to sleep, just rolled on her back, side to side, for hours." ("The Girl in the Window")
Dani in her new home
In October 2007, Bernie and Diane officially adopted Dani.
After a year with her new family, Dani grew 12 inches and her weight doubled.
Dani's shoulder-length hair turned a golden blond.
Dani started going to occupational and physical therapy, to church, the mall, the grocery store, speech classes and horseback riding lessons.
Dani began to say a few words.
The first she spoke was "baaa."
William, her new brother heard Dani say, "Stop!" and "No!" He thought he even heard her say his name.
William, aged ten, taught Dani how to play peek-a-boo.
William moved out of his bedroom so Dani could sleep upstairs.
William slept in the laundry room.
Dani improved month by month.
She learnt to swim.
She learnt that her name is Dani.
Dani and William
In 2011, Dani continues to live "deep in the lush Tennessee countryside" on Diane and Bernie Lierow's 25-acre farm. (Diane and Bernie Lierow: 'We knew that Dani needed us ... - Daily Mail)
The farm contains prizewinning Boer goats, which 13-year-old William shows in competitions, miniature ponies, chickens, and various dogs.
Dani is now aged 13.
"In the past six months, she has improved more than in the last couple of years," Bernie says proudly.
Now, she can go to the cupboard, get a glass and get herself a drink of water.
And she's much more open; she will look at people now.
(Dani's Story by Diane and Bernie Lierow, with Kay West, Penguin/Michael Joseph)

Last month Palestinians marked 30 years since the First Intifada, which erupted on December 9, 1987. In this except from "The First Intifada: Hope and the Loss of Hope," which appeared in the Autumn, 2017 issue of the Journal of Palestine Studies, Khalid Farraj recounts his own arrest by Israeli soldiers in March 1988 during a security sweep of Jalazun refugee camp, north of Ramallah. The sweep was led by Gen. Amram Mitzna, Israeli officer in charge of the Central Command (West Bank) at the time. Farraj grew up and worked in the camp as an activist leafleting and disseminating information among the community.

Great location, the apartments are a bit older but they are also affordable, which is more than I can say for others in this area. Management changes recently but everything seems to be worked out now. Friendly and attentive maintenance over the last few months, and they are starting to do major renovations on several units, upgrading the units substantially.Google Reviews/Resident
Now that the management company switched in 2018, I cannot begin to describe how much better Trademark Residential is than the previous management company. They are attentive, beyond fair. Props again to Ashley and Judy at Trademark!Google Reviews/Certified Former Resident

The Cloven are an unknown faction of human/Chimera hybrids who were formerly human beings that were experimented with Pure Chimeran DNA by Dr. Fyodor Malikov. The first humans to be tested on were soldiers of the Imperial Russian Army. The Cloven are hostile to both humans and the Chimera. The Cloven are first mentioned in Resistance: Fall of Man, and first physically appear in Resistance: Retribution. There are conflicting reports of their nature, as they have been seen to act very savagely, yet possess advanced technology (although this technology is believed to have been created by a different species and the Cloven are simply using it).
Beginning in 1927, the Chimera began their attack on Russia. From the very beginning Russia's military was inefficient in combating the alien threat, especially in having human soldiers being vulnerable to the Chimeran virus. Russian scientist Dr. Fyodor Malikov worked on using Pure Chimeran DNA that he had discovered from the site of the Tunguska Event and created an experimental vaccine which shows promise in creating a resistance to the virus. The Russian government, desperate to stem the Chimeran tide, ordered many surviving soldiers to be vaccinated with Dr. Malikov's vaccine. The experiment initially worked, as the soldiers demonstrate a strong resistance to the Chimeran virus and were more effective in fighting the Chimera. However, some soldiers began to exhibit erratic and violent behavior. Gradually by September 1930, nearly 90% of the soldiers exhibited advanced mutations and severe insanity in which they became AWOL and banded together into small groups and roam the Russian countryside preying on other humans. Becoming as much of a threat as the Chimera, theses mutated and insane soldiers became known, and officially referring to themselves as the "Cloven".[1]
Though the Cloven did not physically change into Chimera, the psychological stresses of their Chimeran condition drove the Cloven insane. The Cloven were able to hold on to their individuality, though, and as a result have traits of both Chimera (inhuman noises, parts of their DNA, eating their dead) and humans (appearance, Russian dialect).[2][3][4] However, the Cloven have no known alliance with either group, and are hostile to both.[5]
The Angry NightEdit
On the day of their transformation and madness, known to the them as the "Angry Night", the Cloven intended to escape westward. Once reaching western Russia, the Cloven took over Moscow.[6] Their activities in the capital city were reported by survivors that they kill, cannibalize, and kidnapped ordinary people. For reasons unknown the Cloven only abducted women; however, these abductions are somehow connected to the "Leben Geist".[6] Following the destruction of the Red Curtain, the Cloven migrated to Europe and settled discretely in many secluded locations, such as Paris' underground catacombs or abandoned towns.[7] Furthermore, the Cloven later expanded to Britain by either hitching on refugee ships that were bounding to Britain or having followed the underground tunnels which the Chimera had dug underneath the English Channel during their invasion of Britain.[8]
Throughout 1951, the Cloven were beginning to be frequently noticed by the public due to their barbarous acts which includes cannibalism and gruesome remains they left in their wake. This caught the attentions of various human government organizations in which attempts in making contact with the Cloven further ended in violence. Throughout the entirety of the Chimeran War, the Cloven were rarely seen engaging in any conflict. However, it is appeared otherwise as a detachment of Cloven fought against the Chimera and were witnessed by British soldiers near Lancaster. These Clovens actually lured the Chimera they fought to York where they deliberately coordinated a conflict between the Chimera and American forces during Operation Deliverance, allowing the operation to end in failure.[9]
By the later half of 1952, the Cloven had been more militant in attacking the Chimera and have been plundering Chimeran weapons and technologies, most especially of their keenly interest in Gray Tech artifacts.[10] As of January 10th, 1953, Colonel Rachel Parker regarded to Major Richard Blake that the Cloven are increasingly cooperating with the Chimera.[11] The Cloven's intentions still remain currently unknown. The last parts of the Cloven's human nature are probably begining to vanish and soon they will be just another part in the Chimera's evolution.
Cloven physically resemble a normal human, but some move and act like animals, crawling on all-fours and using growls and roars to communicate. Their common appearances are having pale skin, bald heads, and worn-out gray uniforms in varying states of repair, from mostly intact as seen in Resistance: Fall of Man to indeterminate rags in Resistance 2 and Retribution.
In Resistance: Fall of Man multiplayer, the Cloven are equipped with helmets with the Russian letter Д (D), and sometimes they are seen wearing a bandanna to cover their faces and the color of their eyes.
Cloven possess a very ritualistic society, completely based on the death of their foes and themselves. The Cloven decorate themselves in the blood of their victims and use the bones of their foes in gory rituals, but not the bodies of their own fallen - Cloven strip the flesh of their fallen comrades for feasting and store the bones away. It is unknown if the Cloven bury their dead or not.[12] However, in spite of their insanity the Cloven still clinging to some remnants of their previous human lives. Evidences supporting this are their attachment to listening to music from old phonographs and keeping broken figurines and photographs that are found on makeshift altars and shrines.[13][3][14]
Also, the Cloven became interested in the Gray Tech components after observing humans and Chimera partaking in an desperate arms race to obtain these artifacts of unknown origin which they each believed could defeat the other. After realizing the significance of the Gray Tech components to the other races, the Cloven began collecting them for themselves. However, the Cloven never seem to construct the Gray Tech components for any sort of offensive weapon or any other military use, but instead they worship the components by taking the Gray Tech to a ritual chamber and singing and dancing around the object. According to James Grayson, since the Cloven had collected so much Gray Tech components, and if they had reverse-engineered the components instead of holding rituals for the objects, they could have wiped out all the other combating races themselves.[10]
The Cloven have a hive mentality, working in small packs. If members of these hives are killed, the whole pack becomes less effective and the Cloven descend deeper into insanity, eventually becoming savage, brutal, animal-like fighters.[15]
Both the Maquis and the British intelligence groups believe that the Cloven are undergoing some type of evolution - as are the Chimera, presumably as a side effect of Daedalus's new evolutionary changes.[16] An example of this evolution was believed to be the Leben Geists (Living Spirit), named by German Maquis.[17][6] However, a diary entry recovered by James Grayson contradicts this theory, as the Cloven individual writing it (presumably before he lost all coherence) mentions the Leben Geist as pre-dating them.[2] Its possible that the Cloven are starting to evolve into something similar to the Chimera, but this is unknown.
The Cloven possess technology that far surpasses anything so far seen from either the Chimera or humans. A demonstration of this was seen when a single entity believed to be aligned with the Cloven, called a Leben Geist by the Maquis, took down a Goliath within seconds and after being hit multiple times.[18] In another development, a female Cloven being held at a British laboratory escaped when, according to the surviving guards, she turned invisible (resoundingly and likely similar to the Chameleons' cloaking devices). The guards also reported that she was able to withstand over 40-50 bullets before escaping.[19] There have also been accounts in which large Chimeran bases, sometimes occupied by over 400 Chimera personnel, have been destroyed in a single day. In these accounts, the wounds on the dead Chimera appeared to have been inflicted by small, short knives, and torn apart with bare hands.[20][21][22] It is believed that the Cloven are reverse-engineering already existing Chimeran weaponry and modifying it into their new and far more advanced weapons.[23]
A British soldier guesses that the Cloven can probably turn into Slipskulls (a type of Chimera), although due to how the conversion process works (the strain is determined by the number of humans used), it is likely that they are used to create a wide variety of Chimeran strains. Cloven are cannibalistic - much like the Chimera - eating their dead so that Crawlers do not infect them.[24] One Intel document describes Cloven who are captured by the Chimera will bite their own veins to kill themselves, rather than be infected. This implies that the Cloven may be able to be infected further with the Chimeran virus. When the Cloven are found dead, they have been found with a picture of their creator in their mouths.[25][26] It has been revealed through the Intel of Resistance: Retribution that their creator was none other than Dr. Fyodor Malikov.[1]
A group of Cloven who attacked (and practically destroyed) a Chimeran base in England are also said to have killed four Titan Overseers, ripped their hearts out, and used their blood to write "The Angels sleep" in Russian.[20]
Why the Cloven became so hostile to both humanity and Chimera is unknown, but it is presumed that Dr. Malikov was unable to keep the Cloven under control and the Cloven became rebellious, creating their own faction and attacking Chimera and Humans.
In a recent report, Colonel Rachel Parker of British intelligence ordered that troops are not to attack any Cloven in the field as the Cloven, although they are erratic and frightening, do not appear to attack Humans unless provoked or fired upon first.[16]
In-game appearancesEdit
Resistance: Fall of ManEdit
In Resistance: Fall of Man the Cloven are never seen in-game, but are mentioned several times in the Intel documents. However, they do appear as an unlockable multiplayer skin when the player registers on myresistance.net and uses the unlock code.
Resistance 2Edit
In Resistance 2 they are mentioned in one Intel document from the main campaign: a letter from Rachel Parker mentions that the Cloven are cooperating with the Chimera and that British Intelligence is sending two captured Cloven to SRPA for study.[11] The Cloven are passably mentioned by Dr. Malikov while being rescued by Nathan Hale in Station Genesis, in which Malikov considers his experience with the Cloven a "long story". Furthermore, several cooperative Intel documents that are unlock reveal more about the Cloven and their capabilities. The Cloven multiplayer skin appears again in multiplayer via from the downloadable Aftermath Map Pack on Playstation Network.
Resistance: RetributionEdit
The Cloven make their actual physical appearance in Resistance: Retribution. They are seen more often in the Paris catacombs level, but are never encountered as a hostile enemy or ally to James Grayson, only with the exception of one Cloven that actually attacked Grayson during an action button sequence. Also, the Cloven can be killed for Skill Points in Luxembourg and the Paris catacombs.
The Cloven replace the Chimera as one of the opposing factions in the five multiplayer modes in Retribution. They are the only playable faction in Deathmatch. In Assimilation, there is one Cloven at the start and the rest are Maquis soldiers. The Cloven's objective is to kill all soldiers before the timer ends, while the Maquis's objective is to have at least one soldier alive by the time the timer ends. All killed soldiers are converted into Cloven fighters upon respawning.
Resistance 3 Edit
On their way to New York City by train, Dr. Malikov told Joseph Capelli about the many poor decisions he made and lists a few of them, which included the Cloven.
- The word "cloven" is the past participle of the word cleave, and the adjective word for something divided or split. The Cloven's faction name is appropriate as they are a "species" entirely and genetically split from both humans and Chimera
- The name Cloven is likely derived by British Intelligence from the fingers of the soldiers, which revealed in bloodied fingerprints on intel documents, and stated by British soldiers are "cloven" or slashed down the center by knives and left to heal into a gap down the center of their fingertips.

Battle Bears -1 Review
Battle Bears -1 is a prequel set two games before the events of the first Battle Bears. This time, Oliver, the star of the first game, plays Ripley to the adorable pink Huggables' Aliens aboard a cavernous spaceship.
Like in the first Battle Bears, -1's story is told through delightful animated cutscenes, which this time reference classic movies such as Star Wars, Aliens, Indiana Jones, and even Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail. They're brief but memorable, and we wish there were more of them to break up the constant action.
Might want to put a tourniquet on that.
New to Battle Bears -1 is the 3D movement. While before Oliver was stuck behind sandbags and could only move his aim, now evading the Huggables is a major part of the gameplay. You'll have to sprint around the room, circle-strafing the slower-moving bears and moving in close to detonate toxic green Huggables.
The new control scheme works pretty well once you spend some time with it, but to look left or right without shooting, you have to activate a "safety" button on the bottom of the screen. This is not a good option when you're frantically running while trying to conserve your special ammo like rockets or spread guns. A mechanic where you could drag anywhere on the screen to look around, like in the shooters NOVA and Brothers in Arms 2, would have made more sense to us.
Speaking of weapons, we were disappointed that they're so bland in this prequel. The first Battle Bears featured a strikingly unique arsenal, which included a unicorn horn crossbow and Huggable-powered flamethrower. Here, you'll find some new powerups that match the action, like a portable shield, orbiting drone, and screen-clearing nuke, but there's nothing that defines Battle Bears like the first game did.
Boss's face obscured to protect its identity.
Also, Oliver's entire mission is composed of one series of rooms, which all look nearly identical. You can choose your path, a nice touch reminiscent of the arcade classic Smash TV (Survival mode even jokingly references that game's goofy prizes, like a jet ski). But after one big boss battle and a final cinematic, the game is over.
You can pay an additional $.99 for another mission of equal length starring Oliver's buffed-out buddy Riggs, and it might be worth the dollar just for the boss battle against a giant, squid-like mutant. But Riggs has his own issues– he's too tall to aim at squat, nearby Huggables, and unlocking his mission offers no new powerups or enemies except the boss.
Battle Bears -1 is an interesting direction for the series to take. We are happy with the fast-paced action, and the game is technically impressive, sporting dozens of enemies onscreen without a hitch. But it seems to have lost some of the creativity of the first game, coasting on classic videogame and movie tropes instead of defining its own. Chronologically, it's two steps backwards, but it's also one small step backwards in terms of creativity.

It's the first Thursday in September, which means debut releases. Please take a look and let's celebrate their success!
Rob Brunet - Stinking Rich (Down & Out Books) September 8, 2014
What could possibly go wrong when the backwoods Libidos Motorcycle Club hires a high school dropout to tend a barn full of high-grade marijuana? Plenty, it turns out. In a world where indoor plumbing's optional and each local wacko is more twisted than the last, drug money draws reprobates like moths to a lantern. From loveable losers to gnarly thugs and law-and-order wannabes, every last one of them has an angle—their best shot at being stinking rich. And with their own warped ideas about right, wrong, and retribution, the Libidos aren't far behind.
Matt Cook - Sabotage (Forge Books) September 9, 2014
An extortionist commandeers a weapons technology that could irreversibly alter the international balance of power. Nothing is known about him, other than his alias: "Viking." Pitted against terrorist conspirators in a bidding war for the technology, the responsible U.S. defense corporation can't touch him as long as he controls a hijacked cruise ship in the North Atlantic.
The key to bringing the Viking down may lie in the disappearance of Stanford professor Malcolm Clare, celebrated aviator, entrepreneur, and aerospace engineer. Searching for Clare is doctoral candidate Austin Hardy, who seeks out the man's daughter, Victoria—an icy brunette with a secret that sweeps them to Saint Petersburg. Aided by a team of graduate students on campus, the pair must devise Trojan horses and outfox an assassin in order to unravel the Viking's scheme.
Austin and Victoria are not alone in their efforts. Former Air Force combat weatherman Jake Rove, one of three thousand passengers held hostage aboard the luxury liner, is determined to weaken the ship's hijackers: He must evade detection, dive by night, and communicate intelligence to the Stanford team as they struggle to prevent international disaster and economic collapse in the United States.
Both on U.S. soil and thousands of miles away, the story roars into action at supersonic speed as Austin and Victoria race to uncover the Viking's trail of deception, betrayal . . . and sabotage.

David Swatling - Calvin's Head (Bold Strokes Books) September 15, 2014
Life in Amsterdam isn't all windmills and tulips when you're homeless. Jason Dekker lives in a jeep with his dog, Calvin, on the outskirts of the city. A thesis on Van Gogh brought him to the Netherlands and the love of Dutch artist Willy Hart convinced him to stay. But Willy is gone and Dekker is on the brink of a total meltdown. On a sunny summer morning in the park, Calvin sniffs out the victim of a grisly murder. Dekker sees the opportunity for a risky strategy that might solve their problems. Unfortunately, it puts them directly in the sights of the calculating stone-cold killer, Gadget. Their paths are destined to collide, but nothing goes according to plan when they end up together in an attic sex-dungeon. Identities shift and events careen out of control, much to the bewilderment of one ever-watchful canine. Oscar Wilde wrote that each man kills the thing he loves. He didn't mean it literally. Or did he?

End Citizens United, a political action committee which was recently formed to raise campaign contributions for the election of House and Senate Democrats who support campaign reform, has recently been the topic of several politically aimed news articles regarding the organization's swift collection of $4 million. The organization's leader stated that End Citizens United's workers and volunteers are extremely excited to have raised such a large amount of money in such a small window of time. Organization representatives hope to raise an additional $30 million by the end of the year, an amount which will create effective opposition to the current Republican-led congress.
One of the stated goals of the End Citizens Untied political action committee is to rid United States political campaigns of wealthy contributors. Representatives from End Citizens United expressed concern about the lack of regulation in United States Campaigns. After the Supreme Court ruled that regulation of corporation contributions were unconstitutional and violated the right to free speech, a group of politically engaged Americans who disagreed with the ruling gathered together to form the End Citizens United political action committee. The organization hopes to raise enough money to support politicians who will support campaign reform.
Representatives from End Citizens United also believe that the lack of regulation with regard to corporations and wealthy Americans negatively contribute to United States elections by negating the will of the majority of the American people. These representatives argue that a majority of the American people are middle class citizens without the ability to fully fund entire campaigns and effect political change in the way that corporations and billionaires do. By supporting efforts to introduce reform to the current United States campaign system, End Citizens United representatives hope to redistribute the political power so that elections will result in the true will of the American people.
The End Citizens United organization has received an overwhelming amount of positive press and endorsement from the liberal media. The group was most recently featured on the MSNBC sponsored Rachel Maddow Show where representatives discussed the desperate need for campaign reform in the United States. The organization is asking that interested parties make donations to End Citizens United on a monthly basis. The political action committee's president stated that the company raised $4 million in 2017 by collecting donations averaging $12 per person per month. This extraordinary amount of money was collected through the donations of average people with average incomes. The team at End Citizens United is extremely proud of the fact that the middle class is stepping up to support efforts to reform campaigns in the United States. Representatives hope that these citizen's efforts will be rewarded by the introduction of a fair campaign system.

Trevor Hoffman missed being inducted into the Hall of Fame this year by five votes. Five. Freaking. Votes. Despite a dominant career and sparkling numbers, the San Diego Padres closer has failed to reach the hall on his first two ballots. Some question the relative value of closers and use advanced stats to try and knock his case, but here's the bottom line: Trevor Hoffman is undoubtedly a Hall of Famer and deserves induction.
I get that closers will never earn the respect of starting pitchers or position players, but the game has changed and specialization reigns. Closer is a legitimate position in baseball now and that should change the way Hall of Fame voters approach things. Hoffman was one of the two best to ever inhabit the closer role. If that isn't worthy of induction I don't know what is.
Hoffman's numbers are, quite frankly, ridiculous. He played 18 seasons and in that time threw 1,089.1 innings in 1,035 appearances. He posted a 2.87 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, and struck out 1,133 batters, had a K/9 rate of 9.4, which is a full point higher than Mariano Rivera's (8.2). In fact, Hoffman's K/9 rate of 9.4 is the best among relievers with at least 1,000 innings pitched.
Between 1993 and 2010, Rivera and Hoffman were the only two pitchers in baseball who threw 1,000-plus innings and had an ERA under 2.90. Rivera is undoubtedly the best closer of all time, even this San Diego native won't argue that, but Hoffman is No. 2 and there's a wide gulf between those guys and the rest of the closer class.
Hoffman was the first pitcher in history to record 500 saves. He was the first to record 600 saves. He finished his career with 601, Rivera later passed him and owns the career mark at 652. Hoffman and Rivera each converted 89 percent of their save opportunities.
The number of saves and save percentage are the only true way to measure the success of a closer. Regardless of what you think of the role, those guys were asked to finish close games. Did they do it? That's all I care about. Rivera and Hoffman did it better than anyone for nearly two decades. They converted a ridiculous amount of save opportunities and did so at the same percentage.
During 16 years with the San Diego Padres, Hoffman converted 552 saves, before spending two seasons in Milwaukee. He was a seven-time All-Star, posted 30 or more saves 14 times and 40 or more saves nine times, and was a runner up for the National League Cy Young Award twice. In 1998, he turned in one of the best seasons for a closer in Major League history. He saved 53 of 54 chances while posting a 1.48 ERA and a career-best 0.85 WHIP. He did that in the heart of the steroid era, while also becoming the first closer to enter a game to a signature song. While Rivera's "Enter Sandman" walk-out gets a lot of praise, no one has or will ever top Hoffman's slow jog to the mound while "Hell's Bells" played in the background. I'll be damned if that didn't give me chills every single time.
Hoffman should have won the Cy Young in 1998. He garnered the most first-place votes, but was left off of several ballots because he was a closer. Tom Glavine won instead.
What sets Hoffman apart from other pitchers of the roided-up, high-velocity era in which he pitched, is the fact that his fastball barely touched 90 mph. A pair of freak injuries took all the juice out of Hoffman's shoulder before the 1995 season. He couldn't blow the ball past guys anymore. Rather that overpower hitters, Hoffman had to use smarts, deception and location to get them out. His changeup was every bit as devastating as Rivera's slider, just ask hitters who had to face both.
We've reached a point where steroids cheats are now on Hall of Fame ballots, so I think we also need to give credit to guys who stayed clean. At any point he could have opted for the needle and added five miles per hour to his fastball. Others took that route, but he didn't. Instead, he decided to be smarter and more accurate. He painted corners, hid his changeup with arm action and mixed his sequences. He's an example of how a guy can overcome deficiencies without turning to pharmaceuticals.
Yeah, I just gave a guy credit for not cheating, but when you consider the era he played in and who else is not on the Hall of Fame ballot, I think that's fair.
At the end of it all, Hoffman was also one of the best people in baseball during and after his career. There is not a single person who doesn't rave about him. He spent two seasons in Milwaukee and to this day, people there talk about him. Go to a game at Miller Park and you'll see at least a dozen Hoffman jerseys. Tell me he didn't make an impact on the game and on that town. Hoffman is and was one of the best ambassadors for the game you'll ever find and, yes, that should matter.
The Hall of Fame is supposed to honor greatness. I don't care if you don't like saves or relievers or whatever else your argument against including players who have that role may be. Trevor Hoffman was great at what he was asked to do. In fact, he is one of the all-time greats at it. That is enough to warrant inclusion in the Hall of Fame.
Hoffman got 74 percent of the vote this year (75 is needed for acceptance) and virtually everyone agrees he will be inducted next year. But with another season of people nitpicking and Monday morning quarterbacking his greatness, I'm worried. Hoffman was one of the most dominant pitchers of his era. Had he played in Boston or New York, his inclusion would have happened on the first ballot. The Padres were also yo-yoing between competing and rebuilding during much of his career.
Unfortunately, his unfailing devotion to San Diego has hurt his candidacy because the East Coast never got to witness his repeated, consistent dominance. That's a terrible reason to keep him from his rightful place in Cooperstown. The Hall of Fame will be made better by Hoffman's inclusion. There is no doubt he earned it.

There is a growing body of evidence to support the idea that our lives can be greatly and measurably enhanced by listening to certain types of music. This is due to a process known as brainwave entrainment (BWE). In the simplest terms possible, brainwave entrainment is the tendency for brainwaves (the electro-chemical oscillations that occur between neurons) to synchronize with the rhythms of external frequencies – whether auditory, visual, or tactile.
BWE can be verified by analyzing electroencephalogram (EEG) results, and the science behind it is rather concrete. BWE is a very real phenomenon, and its effects on human cognition and performance are easily measurable and quite striking.
One of the easiest ways to induce BWE in test subjects is through exposure to particular types of music – music commonly referred to as binaural beats (think Hemi-Sync) and isochronic tones.
In tests where BWE was induced using these particular sounds and sound patterns, scientists have measured specific, repeatable changes in intelligence, physical well-being, and emotional health.
Increased Intelligence and Creativity
In a research paper published in 1991 by Dr. Siegfried Othmer, President of the Neurofeedback Division of the Association for Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback, he reported that the research conducted with his colleagues displayed significant measurable improvements in test subjects' IQ while in a BWE state induced by binaural beats. In fact, the average IQ increase was an astonishing 23%. For subjects with an IQ less than 100 before the test, the average increase was 33 points!
The paper also reported "dramatic improvements in visual retention, auditory memory, reading and arithmetic.
A follow-up study conducted a year later found that subjects showed long-lasting improvements in self-esteem, concentration, organization, and handwriting.
Genius Brain Power
A program designed to leverage the power of brainwave entrainment, the Genius Brain Power Mind Expansion System uses binaural beats and isochronic tones to train your brain for clarity, increased IQ, and creativity.
The program was developed to promote long-term cognitive improvements through brainwave entrainment. The creators offer a free sample on their website, if you would like to hear this music for yourself.

Enhanced Physical Well-Being
In another study conducted by Dr Vincent Giampapa, MD, Former President of the American Board of Anti-Aging Medicine, New England Journal of Medicine, a number of discoveries were made regarding the effects of brainwave entrainment on the physical body. Dr. Giampapa measured dramatic changes in the production of three specific hormones related to longevity and general health: cortisol, DHEA, and melatonin.
Cortisol is produced by the adrenal glands and is closely associated with stress. It has been found to have a negative impact on learning and memory. Studies have shown that BWE reduces cortisol levels by an average of 46%!
DHEA is considered a primary ingredient of virtually every beneficial hormone the body produces, and has been shown to help the immune system. Studies have shown that BWE increases DHEA levels by an average of 43%!
Melatonin is produced during periods of deep, natural sleep, and is associated with stress reduction and feelings of calm and tranquility. Studies have shown that BWE increases melatonin levels by a staggering average of 98%!
Additional research by Dr Margaret Patterson and Dr Ifor Capel of the Marie Curie Cancer Foundation Research Department found that Alpha brainwave states induced by binaural beats increased the production of serotonin, which is an essential hormone for pain relief and relaxation.

Improved Emotional Health
Numerous studies have been published on the use of brainwave entrainment to reduce anxiety and treat depression. These studies have consistently shown significant reductions in anxiety and increases in general quality of life.
Some examples include: a research paper by Peniston and Kulkosky published in 1989 on the benefits of audio brainwave stimulation for fighting depression in alcoholics – a study that was reinforced in a research paper by Waldkoetter and Sanders published in 1997, a study published in Alternative Therapy Health & Medicine in 2001 that reported significant reductions in anxiety scores among test subjects that used audio brainwave entrainment 5 times a week for 4 weeks, and a study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complimentary Medicine in 2007 about research conducted on 8 healthy adults over a 60 period that demonstrated measurable decreases in anxiety and increases in quality of life.
The MP3 Meditation Club
The MP3 Meditation Club has engineered dozens of isochronic meditation programs based on the findings from published brainwave entrainment studies. They use the exact frequencies cited for achieving specified outcomes, and test each program for effectiveness.
Their audio programs are specifically engineered to provide targeted benefits that include stress relief, improved memory, and more esoteric concepts like astral projection and lucid dreaming.
Click here to learn more about the MP3 Meditation Club
The science is voluminous and the results are consistent. Brainwave entrainment is a very real phenomenon that provides very real benefits, and it can be reliably induced through regular exposure to particular binaural beats and isochronic tones.
The effects on intelligence, physical health, and emotional well-being are undeniable. Of course, it stands to reason that if these techniques can be used to produce positive, beneficial states of altered consciousness, it may also be possible to induce negative, malignant states of altered consciousness. Perhaps this is the research that should be conducted next.
In the meantime, though, it's probably a smart idea to use what science has discovered about this brainwave stimulating music to improve ourselves and our lives as much as possible.

The Wisconsin Parent Guide Program (WI PGP), formerly known as the Guide By Your Side Program, is a "parent to parent" matching program for families with children who are diagnosed with hearing loss. Through this program, families will have an opportunity to establish a supportive relationship with a Parent Guide, an experienced and trained parent of a child who is deaf, hard of hearing, deafblind or deaf with additional disabilities. The WI Parent Guide Program is available to families with children with a confirmed hearing loss, ages 3 – 21.
Who can request services?
Service requests for the Wisconsin Parent Guide Program can be made by school district staff, parents, guardians, or other service providers.
What are goals of the Wisconsin Parent Guide Program?
- To provide parents with emotional support, as well as unbiased information regarding communication options and considerations for their child.
- To provide parents with an understanding of the unique needs of children who are deaf, hard of hearing, and deafblind.
- To link parents to resources available locally, regionally, statewide, and nationally.
- To effectively link families to their county Birth to 3 Program or school district.
- To provide unbiased information, support, and resources so families are able to make informed decisions on behalf of their child(ren).
Is there a cost for the Wisconsin Parent Guide Program?
No, this program is free of charge to families.
Who are the Parent Guides?
The WI PGP is comprised of specially trained "Parent Guides" throughout the state of Wisconsin. The Parent Guides represent a diverse group of parents, including parents who have children who are deaf, hard of hearing, deafblind, deaf with additional disabilities, and a Spanish speaking Parent Guide. Our Parent Guides bring a wealth of parenting and decision-making experiences to the WI PGP team. Parent Guides have been selected for their ability to work with families of children with hearing loss and for their flexibility in understanding the variety of educational and communication options available to deaf, hard of hearing, and deafblind children.
What is 'unique' about the Wisconsin Parent Guide Program?
WI PGP Parent Guides have received specialized training; this training provides a strong foundation in supporting families without a bias around communication modes or methods, as well as a functional understanding of formal systems and services available to families and their children. Parent Guides are able to bring their direct experience, specialized knowledge, and personal compassion to their role while making the family's needs their primary agenda.
How does the Wisconsin Parent Guide Program help support collaborations with the educational system?
Parent Guides ensure that connections to the child's educational program (County Birth to 3 Program or local school district) are made, in addition to supporting the family through transition to/from Birth to 3 to the local school district. Parent Guides can provide helpful suggestions to support parents as active participants of the IFSP/IEP teams.
What happens after a request for services is made?
The Wisconsin Parent Guide Program Coordinator will initiate contact with the family within two weeks to discuss the program components / supports and ask the family if they are interested in participating or not. Upon consent, the WI PGP Coordinator will complete a WI PGP Intake Form detailing the conversation with the parent(s) and then assign a Parent Guide to the family. The assigned Parent Guide will then initiate direct contact with the family to set up their first meeting.
For more information, please contact:
Laurie Nelson, Program Coordinator, email@example.com, V:608-224-2809

hello! i had a mini photoshoot sometime back, to showcase some of the looks im wearing this spring/summer:)
here's the first part of the lookbook!
SS15 Lookbook/ Series 1/ Fleurette
photographer: kayleigh g.
undoubtedly, midis are one the key looks this season, and very popular with singaporean girls,
its less formal than a maxi, yet still flowy and feminine.
i'm wearing midis alot this days, from midi culottes to midi dresses and skirts, as they are oh so flattering ;)
the key to picking a flattering midi is to choose one that ends at the right length, making sure it doesn't end at the widest part of your calves.
the piece i'm wearing today is the aubrey midi floral dress from vaingloriousyou.
i absolutely adore this piece, its made of lightweight polyester that is non sheer.
the workmanship and cutting for this is good and the ruches at the sweetheart portion is one of my fav details of this dress.
splashed with bright, vibrant florals, this is definitely a perk me up dress and i felt so happy just wearing it out :)
i hope you guys enjoyed this little lookbook feature!
stay tuned for part 2 and 3 coming up soon ;)
till the next;

United Nations climate talks are currently being held in Poland. At the same time, the Polish government is hosting a coal industry meeting, something the 'Greenies' and their climate change buddies are very unhappy about. They feel Poland is far more committed to the use of coal than it is to preventing further climate change.
I see it somewhat differently. The Polish government has been honest. As a nation they have admitted that coal plays a vital part in keeping the lights on and keeping their people warm. They have admitted that it will continue to do so for many decades to come.
The United Nations, that insidious group that proclaims half the global population should freeze to death in order that the other half can live happily ever after, should be disbanded.
They sit there in their decidedly environmentally unfriendly offices, adjusting the heating and air conditioning to suit their needs, while condemning private citizens that do the same.
They issue their environmentally friendly diktats without a thought for those who have no choice but to use coal, or oil, or wood.
The climate change agenda, the green agenda and Agenda 21 are slowly morphing into one, and the aim is so obvious…depopulation. We have to stop trashing the planet, we have to stop the planet from getting hotter, we have to reduce the population of the planet…it's getting more and more difficult to see these entities as distinct bodies.
I'm not stupid, though to be fair some people may disagree with me on that. I, like most of you know for a fact that if the population keeps growing and the resources keep getting used then one day they will be gone. They will be there again in a few million years when more coal and oil has formed, but on a human timescale they will be gone.
I know, like most of you do, that we have to develop alternative energy strategies for the long term to enable us to keep the lights on, and our homes warm.
I know, like most of you do, we have to find new ways of feeding the rising population solid nutritious food.
What I also know, like most of you do, is that condemning half the population of the planet to death by freezing is not an option.
I applaud Poland's honesty in standing up to these people and telling them straight out that this is what's happening, and this is what's going to continue happening for the foreseeable future.
It would be interesting to know how many of those who support a ban on fossil fuel usage earn enough money to live in eco homes, to have fully functioning solar and PV set ups.
Better still, I'd like to know how many of these people don't have solar, PV and other renewables. I wonder how many of them are grid connected and relient, how many have air conditioning and inefficient boilers?
I suspect this is just another example of do as I say and not as I do.

Hello all! I decided to try out designing some dresses to enter them in a dress designing competition held by Ra Ra Superstar. The winner will have their dress made and sold in stores! Which would be so, so, so super dooper exciting. If one of my designs won, you could even buy the dress and then say "hey! I know the girl who designed this dress, how cool am I?" Awesome, right? (Although I'm sure this won't happen because a lot of the other drawings are much better than mine, but hey, I may as well try.)
Please vote for me (find the links below the photos)! The design that gets the most "Likes" on facebook will win!
Here's the three designs I entered (and please excuse my terrible illustrations):
If enough people vote my dresses as their favourite, then one of these dresses will exist in real life. Please go and vote for me (and don't vote for anyone else ;) ), because it would be so incredible to win. I'm sure I'll be spamming you all about this until the competition closes. I love you guys ;)

For the first two weeks in Year6L we've started Guided Reading and we were put into our groups. Our group is the green group and we started reading 'The Terrible Power of the House Rabbit', it's about this really messy family that buys a house rabbit that seems to be very tidy and doesn't like all the mess around the house. It has big disturbing eyes and would hypnotize the family and make them clean up. Although we haven't finished the 63 pages of the book yet and we're still in the first 17 pages there's been lots of funny things we've read about like: How the rabbit makes little, neat droppings on the litter box.
This book was written by Susan Gates and was first published in 1999. Susan got the idea of the House Rabbit from one of her friends that was allergic to the straw in the cages so she got a House Rabbit and that is how the idea started!
Thanks M!

TORONTO, May 13, 2013 /CNW/ - (TSX: SCP) - Sprott Resource Corp. ("SRC" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the three-months ended March 31, 2013.
"We are pleased with the continued progress of our investee companies and see strong potential for a rebound in the energy sector. We believe the outlook for natural gas is excellent and are well positioned to benefit from its recovery through our investments in businesses like Long Run Exploration Ltd. ("Long Run"), which has significant oil, natural gas liquids and natural gas assets in Alberta," said Kevin Bambrough, Chief Executive Officer of SRC. "During the quarter, we also increased our energy exposure through a joint venture agreement between One Earth Oil & Gas Inc. ("OEOG") and Gift Energy Limited ("Gift Energy"), an entity established by the Gift Lake Metis Settlement ("Gift Lake"), to explore and develop Gift Lake lands for heavy oil."
"Our current portfolio consists of investments at various stages of maturity," said Paul Dimitriadis, Chief Operating Officer of SRC. "Going forward, one of our priorities will be to add a company with current or near-term positive cash flow to our asset mix. This will help support our dividend policy and our commitment to building value for our shareholders."
"Independence Contract Drilling, Inc. ("ICD") continues to execute on its three-year strategic plan with five rigs fully contracted and one additional rig under construction." said Arthur Einav, SRC's General Counsel and Managing Director. "It is anticipated that ICD will complete the manufacture of two or three additional rigs in 2013 and have one more rig in progress at the end of the year."
"During the first quarter, One Earth Farms Corp. ("One Earth Farms") continued its transition into a value-added food business with the acquisition of Beretta Farms Inc. ("Beretta Farms"), an established seller of antibiotic free natural and organic branded meat products in Ontario and British Columbia," said Steve Yuzpe, Chief Financial Officer of SRC. "This transaction gives One Earth Farms a retail presence in two large markets and is an important milestone in the company's vertical integration process."

Although SRC believes the expectations and assumptions reflected in such Forward-Looking Statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on Forward-Looking Statements because SRC can give no assurance that such expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct. The Forward-Looking Statements included in this new release are not guarantees of future performance and should not be unduly relied upon.

Information Regarding Disclosure on Oil and Gas Information
Where amounts are expressed in a barrel of oil equivalent ("boe"), or barrel of oil equivalent per day ("boe/d"), natural gas volumes have been converted to barrels of oil equivalent on the basis that 6 thousand cubic feet ("mcf") is equal to one barrel of oil. Use of the term boe may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. This boe conversion ratio is based on an energy equivalence methodology, and does not represent a value equivalency. Indeed, the energy and value relationships may differ widely with market conditions. The conversion conforms to the Canadian Securities Regulators' National Instrument 51-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities.
