We create content of an exceptional calibre. How? Our team of content experts combine a deep understanding of their audiences with clearly defined and measurable objectives to craft pieces that inspire action and help our clients reach their big business goals.
Curious to learn more? Read on.
Our content is useful
Your customers, both existing and prospective, are busy and have problems to solve. They've grown tired of billboards and banner ads and now look for content that provides both help and utility. So there's just one question to ask yourself: is your content providing solutions?
It's tied to business objectives
While intelligent and entertaining content for its own sake is a nice thought, your business needs content solutions that do more than just sit prettily on your website. Because business objectives, not virality or click-baiting, are what drive our content team, every piece of content we create is tailored to achieve specific and measurable outcomes.
It's also bold
With language that packs a punch and calls audiences to action.
And well researched
Lipstick shades and man-bags aren't our content catnip. We get a kick out of technical expertise. It's our point of difference and our greatest passion. Professional indemnity insurance, high-intensity interval training, CAPEX growth and mortgage affordability, road maintenance assessment technology, workplace diversity and inclusivity – you can't be crafting compelling content about technical topics of this calibre without first conducting extensive and meticulous research.
And finally, it's thought provoking
You know that sense of wonder felt immediately after finishing a piece of genuinely enthralling content? It's what gets us out of bed in the morning. And it's what wins us awards, too.
While our clients exist across an expanse of niche and often supremely technical sectors, our work with every one of them starts in exactly the same way: we ask a question.
"Do you have a documented content marketing strategy?"
Whether you're with or without a documented content marketing strategy, we'll guide you through our Methodology, a proven framework that'll shape and define your ongoing, content-fuelled endeavours, to ensure you're getting serious bang for your content marketing buck.
This is how we do strategy.
We benchmark against metrics that actually mean something
What's in a click? And how much is a website visitor or Twitter follower worth to your business?
Our expert team of strategists only capture data that aligns with your overarching business objectives. Clicks, likes, followers: unless they're propelling you closer to your big business goals, we don't bother with them.
We develop amplification strategies with a focus on quality, not quantity
Which would you rather? One million vaguely interested and relatively irrelevant website visitors or 100,000 impassioned and peachy prospects who're banging down your doors in anxious desperation to do business with you?
We pinpoint the most effective platforms and channels to reach the eyes and ears of not just long-established, loyal customers, but of those who don't yet know they'll soon be customers.
We marry content to your business's key revenue drivers
Whether it's your annual convention, training programs, seminars or product sales, we identify product-specific marketing objectives at the outset to ensure that every piece of content is supporting your business's main money makers.
And finally, we iterate. And then some
The term 'set and forget' isn't in our vocabulary. All of our content is scrutinised on a regular basis – a process which garners refreshing insights that we then use to improve the quality and effectiveness of our work. As you can imagine, 18 years' worth of intense iteration has evolved our business into one finely tuned content marketing machine.
Our design works. Both our clients and awards can attest to that. But exactly how does our team do its thing?
Unlike most content agencies out there, our design process is managed and executed in-house. Highly stylised photoshoots, concept development, art direction: to our designers, these always-complicated and intricate processes are simply part and parcel of their everyday.
We work on the premise that a piece of content must be intelligent first and beautiful second.
Why? Here's why.
Because you only get one chance to make a first impression
While our designers get a serious kick out of crafting beautiful content, they live for intelligent design. Their aim: to create a first impression that's at once fetching and fierce, communicating to their audience that the content they're about to consume is not simply attractive – it's undeniably captivating.
Because beauty is in the eye of the beholder
What's beautiful to an osteopath is likely of little consequence to an engineer or to a fitness professional. So, long before a single stroke is swiped across their respective screens, our design experts delve deeply into the worlds of their viewers, readers and listeners, scouring their sectors for inspiration.
Because beauty is nothing without context
Our designers ensure each piece of content fits flawlessly within their audience's specific context. Because knowing precisely how and where they consume information is just as important as understanding what they're consuming.
Don't think context is important? Consider this…
Remember the days when desktop was the bee's knees? There were just two worlds in which a customer could interact with your brand: the 'at home' world and the 'at work' world. But thanks to that shiny rectangular thing currently resting in your hand or pocket, there's now the 'at the cafe' world, the 'waiting for my connecting flight' world…
Put short, context is crucial.
Because when it comes to B2B, functionality trumps form
"I love to pinch and zoom web pages on my smartphone", said no one, ever.
Your customers are in a real hurry and, more importantly, they don't give two hoots about frills, bells and whistles. They're not visiting your website or opening your enewsletter to casually peruse your content. Instead, they're getting right down to brass tacks, purposefully (and very, very quickly) seeking out the information they need from you. If that information is too difficult to find, they'll simply go elsewhere.
User experience: it's in our DNA. Whether you're talking to health experts, financial advisers or HR professionals, our design team will create an exemplary experience tailored especially to your customers' particular tastes.
Our dedicated team of advertising experts work hard to maximise the commercial opportunities offered by our clients' various platforms and channels. With content that speaks exclusively to highly educated, business-to-business professionals working in exceptionally niche sectors, we're in a mighty fine position to attract the highest quality advertisers with budgets that'll improve, not hinder, the quality of your content offering.
Native and sponsored and advertorials, oh my!
Keeping up with advertising's ever-changing landscape is no mean feat. If you're struggling to differentiate native advertising from sponsored content and advertorials, don't worry, you're not alone. We'll not only guide you through the content maze, we'll create one-off pieces of native and sponsored content, and advise you on where and when you should place them for maximum return for advertisers with minimum impact on the reader experience.

By Sgt. Ferdinand Thomas, 214th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment
MCALESTER ARMY AMMUNITION PLANT, Okla. - It takes many different types of service members to accomplish a mission as large as Operation Golden Cargo which is an annual national logistical exercise in which Army National Guard, Reserve and Active component personnel are taking part.
Medical staff helps keep Soldiers in the fight; and convoys in the mission. The 4005th U.S. Army Hospital troops from Houston, Texas provide medical support to Task Force Blue of Operation Golden Cargo. They are taking time out of their annual training mission to help prevent as many medical problems as possible.
"If their Soldiers are sick, they're ineffective. They need to be healthy to proceed with the mission," said 1st Lt. Maleeya Rivas from Amarillo, Texas, 4005th officer in charge, and a nurse.
More than 50 Soldiers have been treated for tick and chigger bites, lacerations from falling off trucks, dehydration and allergies since arriving here the first week of June. McAlester's munitions plant is known for the vast variety of wildlife in its 70-square-mile area of operation. Ticks and chiggers along with armadillos, raccoons and many other animals are running around where the troops lay at night, including Tent City.
Staff Sgt. Michael Day, 4005th noncommissioned officer in charge, said, "Some of these issues we attempt to prevent by ordering Soldiers to wear safety equipment , so they're well protected if they stumble and fall. And we definitely preach drinking water. Unfortunately, a lot of injuries are aggravated prior injuries. Fortunately, we haven't seen any major dehydration issue, which is usually the issue when the heat is hitting Category 5 like yesterday."
Task Force Blue hasn't had any major dehydration issues or anything else for that matter because of the preventive training and follow ups with their troops. Drinking water is the main stressed issue as well as washing hands regularly and keeping up troop's hygiene. Day believes hygiene maintenance can be half the battle of keeping troops 100 percent healthy in an environment such as the 'field.' The 4005th have also provided sun block lotion and bug repellant to the Soldiers to help them stay safe from Ultra Violet Rays and the different bugs of McAlester.
"I think the Soldiers are listening and doing their part. The command is disseminating, so everyone is doing their part," said Rivas.
The 4005th hit boots on ground with 12 troops, mainly nurses and medics, and are providing medical support to more than 350 troops from the 821st Transportation Battalion during Golden Cargo. That's 30 Soldiers to each medical provider. Keeping these Soldiers at their highest level of health and mission ready would be much more difficult without their preventive techniques. And accomplishing the medical unit's side of the mission is a lot easier when the team is on the same page and focused.
"We work very well together. There have been few infections and this is all because of preventing the issues initially," Day said. "Training the troops makes the difference."

Dubbed "The Madhouse on Madison," the Chicago Bulls called Chicago Stadium home from 1967-1994. Boasting a capacity of 17,339 at its height, the Bulls shared the arena with the Chicago Blackhawks until the '94 season. The arena was demolished in 1995, and both the Hawks and the Bulls moved into their current home, the United Center, much to the delight of players and fans alike. If it weren't for a successful franchise the Bulls still might be playing in the Madhouse.

Tallahassee, FL - It has rained in our area 36 out of the last 41 days. So, many folks say they were glad to see the sunshine Friday.
Many people say they couldn't wait to get out and about. Families were at parks and pools enjoying the big break in rain.
One group of kids say they found a way to pass time on rainy days, but say they were happier to be out with the birds and turtles at Lake Ella.
One boy says, "I have been playing video games and watching TV and playing with my baby sister." His sister says, "I sit inside and watch TV, and eat all the food." Another sister says, "I sat inside and watched a couple of movies. I've been fairly bored."
Some say they were able to do things that they felt they couldn't do for days and say just sitting outside in the sunshine made their day.

Does this thing bite or sting humans?
Signature: freaked out
Dear freaked out,
Though the Red-Footed Cannibalfly, Promachus rufipes, is a very adept hunter capable of taking stinging wasps like this Paper Wasp on the wing, they are not aggressive towards humans. With that said, if a human ever tried to capture a Red-Footed Cannibalfly or other large Robber Fly with bare hands, a bite may result.

Music at Loyola Marymount University
Majors in the LMU Department of Music work toward the goal of earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music over four years of study. The program is devoted primarily to classical training and music. In addition to the department's general classical music curriculum, all music majors select at least one of the following Concentrations (Junior-Senior year specialties): Instrumental Studies, Vocal Studies, Theory/Composition, Musicology, Ethnomusicology, or Conducting.
The Department of Music's overall curriculum strikes a good balance between active performance and scholarly pursuits. The program invites students to excel as performers in ensembles and as soloists, develop music production and leadership abilities, and attain high academic standards in formal writing, analytic skills, and oral communication.
Minoring in music is also a viable option: the music minor fits well with many majors at LMU. Double majoring in music and another major is also possible, especially with those in the College of Business Administration and the Bellarmine College of Liberal Arts. Loyola Marymount University is fully accredited by the National Association of Schools of Music (N.A.S.M.).
The Department of Music offers:
- Small class sizes (10-15 students) for all of its academic curriculum, including its four-semester sequence of music theory and three semesters of Western music history. Such small classes better enable personalized, individual attention, which is essential given the detailed and challenging content of these courses.
- A distinguished faculty of performers, artists-in-residence, and expert pedagogues who provide private lessons and classical training in voice and the following instruments: guitar, percussion, piano, violin, viola, violoncello, and double bass.
- (Please note: LMU's Department of Music does not offer a major in woodwind and brass instruments. However, beginning in the Fall of 2016, the department will offer a music minor as well as non-major/minor instruction in flute, oboe, and clarinet.)
- Free availability of professional accompanists for private lessons, ensemble rehearsals and coaching, and all public recital performances.
- Many opportunities for public performance: in total the department presents more than 30 choral, operatic, large and small instrumental ensemble, and solo concerts, recitals, and performance classes every academic year.
- Courses in world music and the opportunity to play in Balinese gamelan and West African (Ghanan) drumming ensembles.
- Opportunities to travel overseas while participating in international choir tours. The LMU Concert Choir most recently toured France (Paris, Versailles, Normandy) in June, 2015. Previous tours included one in Italy (Lucca, Venice, Rome) in 2010 and another in Germany and Austria (Munich, Salzburg, Vienna) in 2012.
- A professional guitar concert series presented throughout the year and the annual LMU Guitar Festival held in March. Over the past decade the guitar series has featured many internationally acclaimed classical guitarists, lutenists, and other string instrument specialists. Many of these performers also presented master classes for LMU student guitarists.
- Opportunities for voice majors in the Sinatra Opera Workshop to receive financial assistance to study and perform during summer months with festivals in Europe, including the Operafestival di Roma and the Frost School of Music Salzburg Summer Festival, when accepted by the festival through auditions. Singers have also trained in acting and appeared in major operatic roles during the summer with the Hawaii Performing Arts Festival when accepted by audition.

Area Man Buys Bills for $1B: The trust that inherited the Buffalo Bills from Ralph Wilson has apparently agreed to sell the team to Terry Pegula, the owner of the Buffalo Sabres. The amount is being reported as slightly above $1 billion, which would be a record for a team that does not own its own stadium.

HoboJacket: Some MIT guys have a... great? idea: buy clothes from schools you hate and give them to the homeless. They get warm, and you get the chance of seeing someone begging for spare change in a Bulldogs jacket. Is this a brilliantly terrible idea or a terribly brilliant one?

The Best Deal Ever Is Not Good Enough: We discussed the Silna brothers six years ago, but there's a new wrinkle in the saga of the biggest money giveaway in sports history. Ozzie and Daniel Silna, owners of the ABA's St. Louis Spirits, negotiated a deal when the NBA absorbed four other ABA teams in 1976 -- one-seventh of TV revenues from those four ABA teams, forever. This has made them somewhere between $240 and $300 million, but they're suing for a chunk of international broadcasts and the NBA TV network, ideas no one had thought of 36 years ago.

According to Dealogic, Morgan Stanley is ranked fifth in the ECM Bookrunner 2011 league table, fourth in the All Stock Bookrunner 2011 league table but does not feature in the top 10 in any of the Fixed Income tables.

According to their website, The Representation Project is a movement that uses film and media content to expose injustices created by gender stereotypes and to shift people's consciousness towards change.
If their latest video is any indication of the work they have planned for 2014, we're paying attention. See for yourself below. The video, titled 'How The Media Failed Women in 2013' is powerful and really shows how negatively women have been portrayed in the media this year. It will definitely have you saying "WOW!" at the end.
Women did have some great accomplishments and achievements to celebrate in 2013, as noted in the beginning of the video. But the video also reminds us that we still have a long way to go in achieving gender equality and positive female portrayals in the media.
To visit The Representation Project website and learn more about the movement, click here.
What do you think of the video? Do you support The Representation Project and their mission to challenge the negative and amplify the positive when it comes to women in media? Please leave us a comment below and let us know what you think.
2 Comments
Explain to me HOW is showing women in prison a positive at all? Also the part of the video showing the photoshopping of the photographer's wife was meant to expose the injustice, it was a positive item shining a light on bad practices of an industry. Additionally, *some* of the items listed in the FAIL portion of the video are reaching a bit too far make a point and also stepping on individual's artistic impression.
Good video

LEXINGTON, S.C.---Lexington has approved an ordinance that effectively bans registered sex offenders from moving to the town. It will prevent sex offenders from living or loitering within 2000 feet of schools, churches, parks, playgrounds and places children might gather.
The six sex offenders currently living among Lexington's 15,000 residents are exempt.
The Georgia Supreme Court recently ruled a law banning sex offenders from living 1000 feet from similar areas unconstitutional.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
After they finished with my truck, I go to leave and the pedal goes to the floor. I had to pump up the brakes to stop. I turned around and drove back to Les Schwab and each time I hit the brakes I would change lanes because it pulled to the right. My E-brake would not work either. They adjusted the rear brakes and off I go again. A few blocks away I have smoke coming from the rear tires.
The brakes were adjusted to tight so back to LS again. They never once road tested the truck. On the third try, they got the brakes adjusted ok.
The next day I go to start the truck and I only get a click from the starter. The battery cables were loose. I go back to Les Schwab and they unhooked both batteries and charged and tested each one. After a couple of hours they say my truck is ready and hand me the keys.
I drive off and got maybe 5 miles from the store when my voltage gauge pegged, radio turn off and then the truck died. I open the hood to find the positive cable to the right side battery laying against the alt. bracket.
Les Schwab comes out and hooks up the cable and the truck starts ok and seems fine, just charging high. I lost some of the dash lights and some in the radio.
Later that day I only got clicks when I try to start the truck. After messing with the battery cables, it started. Took it back to LS the next day. The truck would not start and only clicked. LS had it towed to the Dodge dealer, and was told that LS would pay for it.
Dodge fixed the starter and LS tried to make me pay for half of the bill. I refused to pay for half and LS ended up paying for it all.
Some of the dash lights are out along with some of the radio lights. I had to replace the headlight switch soon after.
LS says it is not thier fault because my truck has two batteries and said it was an aftermarket set up. My truck is stock, it is a diesel with comes with dual batteries. Les Schwab home office as never returned my phone calls or replied to my letters. It is a place to avoid at all cost, IMHO.

My father (51) has had chronic hemiplegic migraines since July of 2010. He has a migraine every day, and the full symptoms of the hemiplegic migraine occur several times a week. His doctors have put him on several medications, but none of them really help. He can not work now, and has lost many abilities due to the migraines. I was just wondering if you had heard of similar chronic hemiplegic migraine conditions, and what treatment options were used?READ MORE
Chronic Hemiplegic Migraines.
Is it a different Migraine every day, or is it one Migraine that has never ended? It's important to distinguish between the two situations because the approach and treatment are quite different.
If it's one continuous Migraine, it's not chronic Migraine. It's status Migraious (or Migraiousus, either spelling is correct). That's when a single Migraine lasts longer than 72 hours. Take a look at Status Migrainous - The Basics. Preventive medications are unlikely to work until that Migraine is broken. Often, the best method for stopping a long, continuous Migraine is IV infusion. You can find information on that in IV Treatment of Refractory Migraines.
Chronic Migraine, on the other hand, is when a person has headache or Migraines 15 or more days a month. See Chronic Migraine - The Basics.
As Nancy said, the best option for many with chronic Migraine is to be sure to seek care from an actual Migraine specialist.
Has your father tried verapamil for prevention of his hemiplegic Migraines? There are many, many options for Migraine preventive treatments, but verapamil is one that has shown more promise than many for hemiplegic Migraine in particular.
Hope this helps.
Please let us know how he's doing?
Hi I wonder if you can help me, I have been suffering with chronic migraines for months now (& now depression) and i've tried so many different types of medications (Metoprolol, Naproxen, Zolmitriptan, Omeprazole & Prochlorperazine) and Bilateral greater occipital nerve block injection.
I have chronic migraines that last up to 72 hrs at least twice a week and a constant dull migraine with occasional random (short term) painful pulsating on the left side.
My consultant diagnosis 'Migraine with complex neurological aura including hemiplegic aura'
The injections worked for about 10 days only (excluding the first 3 days which was horrific).
Can you advise the next step?READ MORE
May 29, 2012Health GuideMay 29, 2012
Hi, Josey, and welcome to the HealthCentral Migraine Community!
What kind of doctor gave you that diagnosis? I ask because, to simplify matters and make it easier for people to get information and treatment, doctors usually go by the gold standard for diagnosis, the International Headache Society's International Classification of Headache Disorders, 2nd Edition (ICHD-II), and your diagnosis isn't consistent with ICHD-II.
The biggest thing is to not lose hope. I can share with you that, at one point, I was in bed five or six days a week with chronic Migraine with aura and Migraine without aura. It took time and patience, but my Migraines are much better controlled now.
It often seems that we've tried everything there is to try even though there are still many options. There are over 100 treatments in use now for Migraine prevention, so we have more options than ever before.
You didn't say how long you've been working with your current doctor or what type of doctor he or she is. Given what you did tell us, I'd suggest that you seek care with a Migraine specialist.It's important to note that neurologists aren't necessarily Migraine and headache specialists. Take a look at the article Migraine and Headache Specialists - What's So Special? If you need help finding a Migraine specialist, check our listing of Patient Recommended Migraine and Headache Specialists.
I hope this helps,
Hemiplegic Migraine is a rare form of Migraine disease that is often difficult to diagnose and treat because it can mimic other vascular diseases and conditions. I wonder what kind of doctor your dad is seeing right now? Neurologists while fine doctors, are not always experts in one area because they treat so many different conditions like MS, stroke and epilepsy. A Migraine specialist is a "true" expert who does just that. Treat one condition - headache and Migraine - all day, every day. If you feel the doctor working with your dad isn't helping hime enough, it may well be time to consult a Migraine and headache specialist. It's important to note that neurologists aren't necessarily Migraine and headache specialists. Take a look at the article Migraine and Headache Specialists - What's So Special? If you need help finding a Migraine specialist, check our listing of Patient Recommended Migraine and Headache Specialists.
Good luck
I wish i had answers, i really do. i just wanted to respond to let you know your dad is not alone. i have chronic HM have had more than 67 attacks in one month, have been wheelchair bound, and have some permanent motor and numbness problems on my right side. i often want to die and think about it quite often. I am currently on Verapamil which quieted them significantly believe it or not. I also take Magnesium Citrate Solution 300-800mg per day. for me, magnesium helps as much as any other drug without all the horrifying side effects.
the next drug on my list is acetazolamide (also called diomox, i believe) which i might try next. i am a single mother, i cannot work and am on SSDI. if i don't get better by next spring, my house will go on the chopping block. i hope that you find some hope, i truly do.READ MORE

Harbour Point is a seaside holiday home in the pretty village of Lynmouth. Fantastic views of the sea, village and hills
from almost every room make it a very special place to stay all year round.
With only a few steps, you will be on the beach where you can play on the rocks, make a sandcastle or just sit and
watch the world go by eating fish and chips or an ice-cream.
A 32" LCD TV with Freeview, original pieces of art, Leather sofas, Oak dining table, DVD and iPod dock are in the lounge
with wireless broadband* throughout - a real home from home.
For our little guests, we have a high chair, cot, steriliser, toddler step, change mat, selection of toys and books.
After going to Lynmouth various times and always seeing this building we were very excited at staying here it did not let us down the house was soo much bigger than it looks on pics and with the high ceilings it was very grand, each room had brilliant views and most had 4 windows plus so panoramic views , the sound of sea in the morning was lovely and the parking was literally outside after 6pm or just a couple of mins for daytime longstay there was nothing to dislike good range of equipment, television is each room , balcony to die for, fully equipped kitchen , internet was a god send with not much phone reception
We loved being able to walk to vally of rocks, watersmeet, contisbury hill all without a car!
Very helpful owners and speedy respose to all quieries and super quick at returning deposit literally a couple of days after we came back could not ask for more.
5 of 5 stars Reviewed for a stay in September 2015
This is a well equipped property with lovely views across the harbour and towards the village. Very comfortable beds and excellent pub next door. Exmoor is minutes away by car. Probably not suitable for a disabled person as lots of stairs. Take an adapter as no shaver sockets.
All bedrooms are a good size but bathrooms are small. The master bedroom is particularly nice as lots of room, large double aspect windows and balcony. Parking is very easy (at least in October) and if it is not possible to park in the road outside the public carpark is only a couple of minutes walk away. We would certainly go again if in the area.
4 of 5 stars Reviewed for a stay in October 2015
Smooth booking, excellent service by housekeeper.
Wash-dryer and dish washer as advertised.
Harbour Point has large rooms: dining/living room, balcony bedroom and turret room are especially spacious. The 'golden' bed room we did not use, but it seemed adequate enough, though with limited sea view. The kitchen has a small bar style table for two or three for a quick cup of tea but we preferred the dining room for its glorious views any way. The bathrooms are adequate though a bit quirky as they were later additions to the layout.
It is hard to imagine a holiday accomodation that can top the sea views of Harbour Point. The location at the strategic corner on the harbour front gives 270° views of the sea and the valley with its picturesque Little Switzerland looks and the tiny small boat harbour. The large stylish windows are just right to frame the views.

Photos: Khan-Peterson - The Drama in Washington, DC
WASHINGTON — Hometown favorite Lamont Peterson won split-decision over champion Amir Khan to capture the WBA and IBF junior welterweight titles Saturday night. Peterson's win was helped by referee Joe Cooper, who took two points away from Khan for pushing in the seventh and 12th rounds. Peterson received scores of 113-112 on two cards. The other had Khan winning 115-110. Peterson improved to 30-1-1. Khan is 26-2.

Palm CEO brushes off Apple cell phone threat
Palm chief executive Ed Colligan doesn't plan on losing any sleep over rumors that iPod maker Apple Computer is on the verge of breaching the cell phone market with a new handset device. Responding to questions at a Churchill Club breakfast gathering last Thursday, Colligan reportedly "laughed off the idea" that the Cupertino, Calif.-based company would experience any immediate success in delivering a device to the fastidious smart phone market.

In 2010 Pure C opened on Cadzand's beautiful beach.
Pure C brings an ode to Zealand, the world and life with sexy cocktails, magical food, superb wines, a spectacular lounge bar, a magnificent interior, great music and a wonderful panoramic view over the stormy sea.
In Pure C it's all about the experience of sharing and tasting.
"Dear folks, welcome to Pure C. I created the concept for this restaurant by holding up a mirror to myself: where would I like to eat and drink cocktails? In this unique location I wanted to see a light-hearted, dynamic business with a holiday atmosphere: a little like Ibiza on the North Sea with funky music playing in the background.
A restaurant serving high-quality cooking, accessible to everyone, where you get good value for your money. A place with professional and passionate staff, dressed in hip clothes, who will serve you with a smile. This is a restaurant where guests share food, which creates a special kind of dynamic and a relaxed atmosphere at the table.
To have achieved a Michelin star just one and a half years after opening for a concept which is neither Flemish nor Dutch makes me particularly proud. This is the restaurant of the future for me, the kind of place where quality on the plate goes hand in hand with a relaxed, casual atmosphere. Let yourself be convinced by this extraordinary place on the mighty North Sea and experience Pure C."

Tuesday Sept 16, 2008
PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger does
not have a separated shoulder. It's a sprain according to coach
Mike Tomlin and he's none to pleased about the confusion.
A television commentator Sunday night called the injury a
separation. Tomlin says that information didn't come from any team
official and asked at a weekly news conference today to let him
know if anyone finds out where the report did come from.
Tomlin plans to limit Roethlisberger's participation in
Wednesday's practice, but says the injury is improving. He expects
Roethlisberger to play Sunday in the game against Philadelphia.

American Equity MVA
AUTHOR: Bruce - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, November 15, 2012POSTED: Thursday, November 15, 2012
For the few products we have with a MVA, it is true the dollar amount of the MVA is not reported on the annual statement as a seperate item. The contract Surrender Value, which includes the MVA (positive or negative) is cleary displayed on the annual statement.
This report seems to insinuate that American Equity is trying to hide the MVA if it is positive to the client. That is completely false.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Williamsburg: Revolutionary City
In 2006 Williamsburg began its daily programs, Revolutionary City, dramatizations that link issues of Colonial times to those faced by modern Americans. The reenactors are excellent and never break character, illustrating that many of the problems faced by citizens in the United States today could never have been anticipated by our Colonial forebears. As actors impersonating the signers of the Declaration of Independence debate the merits of slavery and women's rights—and engage the audience in their discussion—one must inevitably draw the comparisons to human rights issues today. All Revolutionary City programs are marked with a red star on the weekly program guides and are a "must-see" when visiting Colonial Williamsburg.

By ERIC FRANCIS
WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — A Springfield man reported by his roommate for possessing child pornography made a plea deal Wednesday that will keep him out of jail.
Instead, Christopher Theroux, 31, will undergo sex-offender treatment.
He had been facing a felony count of possessing child pornography. Under the plea agreement, prosecutors charged him with three misdemeanor charges of possessing child porn, for which he will receive a suspended sentence of one to five years.
Theroux, who will now have to register as a sex offender, was placed on probation and ordered to complete a treatment program.
Deputy State's Attorney David Cahill said the state would amend the charges because the agreement calls for Theroux to be under "strict and appropriate supervision" by Probation and Parole.
"Mr. Theroux admitted his behavior from day one, is remorseful, is amenable to treatment and has no prior criminal history," Cahill said Wednesday in White River Junction criminal court.
Acting on a tip from Theroux's roommate, police executed a search warrant and seized computers from his apartment in November, according to an affidavit by Springfield Police Detective Anthony Moriglioni.
State crime lab technicians confirmed numerous sexual images of children were on at least one of the computers, the detective said, adding that Theroux admitted he downloaded them.
"He advised that he had deleted most of them (but) he had been viewing child pornography for approximately 15 years," Moriglioni wrote.MORE IN This Just InWELLS Vermont State Police are asking for the publics help in finding a 17-year-old who was...

Liz Veal (Editor of econoMAX) writes: Here in the UK we take for granted our education – my daughters have the same educational opportunities as my son; my sisters and I had the same chances as my brother. Education for all, irrespective of gender, is highly valued in our society and we are well-aware of the private and external benefits of education. In economics, we teach that the market would fail to provide enough education as it would be under-consumed because of the extra benefits to society that private individuals do not appreciate. This information failure is overcome with public sector provision of education, compulsory by law until aged 16.

Freeman Mahogany Handrail
The Freeman Cruiser Round Mahogany Handrail length as found on many Classic Style Freeman Cruisers on the cabin roof.
Add to your basket...
Freeman Mahogany Handrail Information
The Freeman Cruiser Round Mahogany Handrail length as found on many Classic Style Freeman Cruisers. The Freeman Handrail is supplied as bare wood so it can be trimmed to length and chamfered on the ends to suit various installations. The Handrail is provided un-varnished to prevent unsightly varnish join marks as trimming to length and additional finishing may be required.
The mahogany handrail is featured on the classic range Freeman Cruisers, the standard length is suitable for the Freeman 23's, which have the longest handrails in the Freeman fleet.
Before fitting it is a good idea to check that the handrails slide inside your existing handrail brackets, as you may need to ease the rail slightly by sanding. Providing there is sufficient clearance the handrails should be pre-varnished with two sealer coats (a mixture of varnish and thinners) and at least one coat of neat varnish. The remaining coats of varnish can be applied after fitting.
Freeman Cruiser Round Mahogany Handrail Specifications
|9ft (2.74m)
Please note: The handrail is made from natural wood and therefore sizes, colour and grain vary.

The agent suggested I suspend instead of cancel in case I did not like DirectTV.
She did not advise me that I would be billed automatically 6 months later.
I had such a bad experience with Dish that I thought well maybe I might have a similar one with Direct.
I did not. Direct was so much better, so I did not call Dish back to reactivate my service.
Their tech was in company uniform and did a wiring job that made Dish look like kindergarten. He made a mess, his wiring was novice and he simply did not look professional.
They billed me and were paid for 6 months.
I travel and my assistant pays my bills.
She paid this.
I detected the error and called them.
They refused to refund all the months that I paid while not getting service.
They did agree to gp back 3 months, but since I did not pay the 3rd month (thank god) they could only refund 2 months.
There is good reason I left Dish and I know that it was poor customer service from the very beginning now til the very end.
