Keith: The Business for Diplomatic Action, Part Four.
Tim: Let's talk about the Business for Diplomatic Action (BDA). What triggered the idea for you to create this organization?
Keith: The idea for BDA began within DDB and started with the notion of looking at America as a brand - as a brand in trouble. It was October 11th, 2001, when President Bush raised a rhetorical question in a press conference "Why would anybody not love us?" The next day I thought, let's take a little temperature check of how people feel about the United States around the world.
Tim: Great.
Keith: We created a non-scientific survey in 17 countries and an ad-hoc task force in each. We sent DDB account planners out into the streets into each country with cameras and recorders, asking "What do you like about America? What don't you like?" We were still fairly close to 9/11, so there was a great deal of sympathy, a lot of the positives you would expect, like our "can-do spirit", our youthful enthusiasm, and pop culture. Depending on the country each had their own position on their likes/dislikes of our entertainment product and issues such as technology, higher education, ethnic diversity and benevolence, among others.
Tim: How about on the negative side?
Keith: The negatives were very strong and were consistent across the globe. By the beginning of 2002, I asked our researchers to "bucket" the negative perceptions. Because in marketing when the brand's in trouble you listen carefully to all the positives and you hope to amplify those. However, with the negatives you have to divide them into two parts. Negatives which are true which require that you change the products. And then negatives which are not true, where you have to change the communications.
Tim: Okay.
Keith: They bucketed them in four categories by descending "offending" order. The first was the perception that Americans exploit. A man from Chile said that Americans are like a disease in a body. They infect the body, but they don't care about the body. They just take and move on. Second was that with the pervasiveness of the American pop culture and the entertainment product, we corrupt values and morals and even religions!
Tim: Heady stuff.
Keith: The third was what is called the "Ugly American." The most frequently used word was "arrogance". I followed up and asked a guy from New Zealand how Americans manifest that arrogance? He said, "Well, you honestly believe that inside every human on the planet there is an American trying to get out, and it is not true. We love so much of what you do, your lifestyle, and a lot of your culture. But we have a culture too and we cherish it, and maybe you ought to learn something about it.
Tim: Okay.
Keith: The fourth was our hyper-consumerism and materialism. After reviewing this information, I said, "Wait a minute, those are things that could be tied directly or indirectly to global expansion led by US businesses. Why can't we mobilize US business to address some of these issues?"
Tim: Cool.
Keith: So I began making a few speeches based on "America as a brand" and how we should be treating it overseas. This caught the attention of some people who said, "You know what, this is kind of an interesting framework." And that led to the formation of BDA. So the similarities are there if you are looking at it as if it is the brand. It's based on what I know. That's my only experience. I have no experience in government or politics and don't aspire to any. However, I know about how consumers perceive brands and what brands in trouble need to do to change their negative perception.
Tim: Brilliant.
Keith: It was fresh thinking to the communities outside of Madison Avenue, such as Washington and at Yale, Harvard and so forth. So they encouraged us to try to put something together, which we did. Since its formation, we have had great experience with several programs that are good enough now to scale.
Tim: Give me an example.
Keith: Well, for one, we are working with a group called Young Arab leaders from the Middle East. The program is based on bringing young executives, high-potential executives from Middle East companies to the United States and sending high-potential executives there.
Tim: Okay.
Keith: Eventually, this program aims to be the "Fulbright Foundation of the Business Sector." We are just rolling this out. This year we've funded 23 individuals but the goal is to make it much larger. Ideally like 1,000 or 2,000 individuals. One idea we are considering is to partner with the US Chamber of Commerce and its affiliates around the world.
Tim: Okay.
Keith: Another is with a program titled, the "World's Citizen Guide." It's interesting. We asked people in a hundred countries for 10 suggestions for Americans traveling abroad. American make 64 million trips abroad a year. That's 64 million opportunities for a good impression. Multiply that by all the people you meet. It could also be 64 million bad impressions. The feedback was illuminating. We got "smart-ass" answers like "Stay home" and other things I won't repeat.
Tim: I can understand why.
Keith: We used DDB offices for this. Then we turned over the content to six young students from SMU who had a passion for this. With our oversight, a generous grant from PepsiCo and a little help from The Richard's Group in Dallas, SMU's professors and some other resources, they put together a "World's Citizen Guide" for US students studying abroad.
Tim: What's the overall message?
Keith: It says, "You're not in Kansas anymore!"
Tim: LOL!
Keith: It addresses that it would be a good idea if you don't compare everything overseas with the way it is at home. We have now distributed more than 300,000 copies to kids studying abroad, and now it's available online. We're about to begin selling it. We want every person who goes abroad to be armed with the need for basic cultural sensitivity. We joined with the Thunderbird School of Global Management and have compiled a variety of cultural data which we are going to start marketing to business executives. We just did the first one.
Tim: Interesting.
Keith: Omnicom was the first client with 28 people from 22 companies. We had very good reviews. We're now going to expand that. And we've also been appointed to a government sub-committee and through that appointment, we're pressing for visa reform and more funding for public diplomacy."
Tim: Congratulations!
Keith: The United States is the only developed country with no Ministry of Tourism. One share point of the growing international tourism is $12.3 billion dollars which translates into 250,000 jobs. As a country we do everything possible to keep people out. We've also been working with the travel industry to help promote tourism to America, and some of those programs are getting traction.
Tim: I'm sure they welcome it.
Keith: They have. We connected them with Tribal DDB, and did their website. We got some funding from the Commerce Department. The site is now called www.DiscoverAmerica.com. We did a brand foundation for the travel association and got Rick Boyko's students at the VCU Brandcenter to give us some basic concepts which were turned over to Tribal DDB.
Tim: Great site!
Keith: A separate, really cool idea was developed by Tribal DDB--we're trying to get funding for it--it's called "The United States of Mind: A Digital Peace Corps."
Tim: Great name.
Keith: The idea is to use existing social networks to aggregate individuals who have expressed an interest in a geographic location, or an issue, or both. Let's say you want to get involved with the water shortage problem in sub-Saharan Africa. Through this program it will put you in touch with other people with similar interests.
Tim: Excellent.
Keith: It also provides users an array of options needed and resources for participating. More important, it's the ability to connect with Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) around the world and with companies on the ground to let them know your interest and how you can contribute.
Stay tuned to tomorrow for Keith's views on the Bernbach's leadership and influence in the 1960's creative revolution and next week to a comprehensive analysis of how Madison Avenue can help support BDA in 2009 and beyond - The Editors

Swimming pool assemblers and athletic agents are among the professionals who will no longer need to obtain state credentials to do their jobs, according to a bill signed by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy into law this week.
Senate Bill 191, which takes effect Jan. 1, 2018, phases out occupational licenses for several jobs that don't have educational or professional prerequisites. The Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection previously required the credentials.
"This bill removes barriers to employment while still maintaining health and safety protections for consumers," said Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff (D-Norwalk) and Deputy Senate Republican President Pro Tempore Kevin Witkos (R-Canton), who championed the bill.
Among occupations no longer needing a license, registration, or certificate are: above-ground swimming pool installer, uniform student athlete agents, licensed shorthand reporters, and real estate intern.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Licenses are still needed for residential flat glass or automotive glazier. Information in a previous version of the story was incorrect.

Don't begin with – 'This is the End'; Enjoy instead – 'Before Midnight'
By Eleanor Ringel Cater
If I had to name four actors I'd love to see burn in Hell, they would be, in no particular order, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen and Danny McBride.
Hence my admittedly twisted interest in "This is the End," that starts out at a party at James Franco's house and ends up dispatching various people to various locations (the choice is limited to Heaven and Hell).
Mid-party, all hell breaks loose and what is initially presumed to be another earthquake is, instead, the End of Days, the Rapture, the Apocalypse or whatever you like to call the craziness going on in Revelations.
The ensuing chaos leaves the aforementioned actors — all playing themselves to add to the comedy (?) — plus the likable Craig Robinson ("The Office") and the harmlessly appealing Jay Baruchel holed up in Franco's house while fire and brimstone rains down on L. A.
Some make it. Some don't. All I know is that I almost didn't. This thing lasts almost two hours and the high points of "hilarity" are masturbation jokes, projective vomiting and cannibalism (at least I got to see one of my Unfantastic Four eaten alive).
In an odd way. "This is the End" reminded me of "Ghostbusters" —only, with better special effects and a much worse script. One critic likened it to the Website, "Funny or Die."
Not funny enough, and everyone took too long to die.
"Before Midnight," by comparison, looks like it was made in another world. And, in a way, it was.
Richard Linklater's long-running romance, starring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy, started in 1994 in Vienna ("Before Sunrise"), continued in 2004 in Paris ("Before Sunset"), and renews their story with "Before Midnight," set on the sunniest, most delectable Greek Island you could ever imagine.
So yes, all three films use considerable Breathtaking Setting Cred to their advantage. But by now, I think those of us who've stuck with the series would gladly watch Hawke and Delpy walk and talk in the parking lot of a Motel 6.
And let's face it: that's what these "Before" movies are about — walking and talking. Their conversation is sometimes deep talk, sometimes flirtatious, sometimes angry, sometimes annoyingly self-conscious. But it's always in some place you'd also like to be.
"Before Midnight" collide with the couple when they have been together for several years. Not married — so American gauche — but bonded enough to live together in Paris and raise adorable twin daughters (a bingo the first time they had unprotected sex, Delpy likes to point out).
They are facing several, well, pressures. He's having guilty feelings about not being with his son by his first marriage who visits but still lives with his mom in he U.S.
When he tentatively tosses out the idea of their maybe moving from Paris to some place like Dayton, Ohio, a firestorm ensues. She's just been offered a huge job. He, after all, can write anywhere (Hawke is a vest-selling novelist, which is how they re-connected in the second movie).
But Linklater refuses to take one side or another. And while he's expert at showing us why these two got together, he — and his actors — are even better at the sharp-edged resentments and rage that can build over a longtime relationship. The take-no-prisoners row they have in the last third of the film is worthy of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?"
But please know, if you didn't like the first two movies, you won't like this one. It's just more of the same. Also know, you don't need to have seen the first two movies to be up to speed on this one.
The pictures — along with Delpy and Hawke — have grown on me over the years. Two decades (or close enough) is a long-term commitment for anyone to anything. And, interestingly —and probably not coincidentally — the nature of commitment is precisely what this film is about.

Sandy and Danny says:
With 'Before Midnight' I disagree that this movie can be enjoyed without having seen the first two. I took in all three with my wife this past Sunday, our first viewing of the films. We thoroughly enjoyed the first two movies, but 'Midnight' left us feeling exhausted. Maybe that was Linklater's point? In the first two movies, we felt swept up in the love story and the immediacy of their relationship blossoming and reconnecting in the course of two days, nine years apart. This film gives you not much reason to want to pull for them to make it as a couple, and I found Delpy's lines manipulated to sound even crazier than the normal angst of modern life as an adult and parent. I took the message of the film to be that even in the most romantic and hopeful of relationship origins, life is hard, and coupledom takes work and has its share of unavoidable turbulence. Fine, that's all true, but the donnybrook the couple have in the movie's last third left us not liking either of them very much. It was also surprising to see a brief glimpse of the physical love between the two, which had only been implied in the first two movies. That the big row takes place in the midst of and after they fool around made it even more jarring and feeling like it was forced in the viewer's faces. In the first two movies, viewers want them to "make it" in every sense of the word. Here, getting jiggy leads to getting to the most precarious place we've seen their relationship go. I recently read a description of marriage as only being 'worth it' with someone with whom you'd like to have a fifty-year conversation. Hawke and Delpy have lovely, rich, compelling conversation in the most beautiful of locales, but with their epic fight, it felt like this film slapped their fans in the face with a dead fish.

Sandwiched between the sparsely populated Texas Hill Country and the sprawling city of Austin, this community of 327 people sits on the line between new and old versions of the Lone Star State. To the east rise the office buildings of an urban high-tech center; to the west, rolling ranch land stocked with cattle, and beyond, the flat prairies of Big Oil.
And just beneath the limestone soil of Sunset Valley's quiet suburban neighborhoods runs another line, a 50-year-old, 700-mile-long oil pipeline that some say represents a grave environmental threat and others contend holds environmental and economic benefits just waiting to be tapped.
The differing views say much about how Texas has changed since the pipeline was built, and about the oil industry's declining influence.
For more than five years, the Longhorn Partners Pipeline Company has been trying to convert the pipeline from its former function, pumping crude oil from Houston to West Texas refineries, to a new use, carrying cleaner-burning gasoline to El Paso, a city under federal air quality sanctions. From there, the gasoline would go to New Mexico and Arizona. The result, Longhorn says, would be cleaner air for El Paso and reduced fuel costs for Southwest motorists who have historically paid some of the nation's highest gasoline prices.
The pipeline has been dormant since it was bought for $325 million in 1995 by Longhorn, a partnership of Exxon, Amoco and other oil interests.Continue reading the main story
But critics say moving gasoline rather than less-volatile crude oil through the aged line poses risks of explosions and fires for thousands of people living near it. They also say spills from the pipeline could threaten lakes and the ecologically fragile Edwards Aquifer, an underground network of spring-fed catacombs that provides water to 45,000 Central Texas residents.
''This is all about pitting one area against another,'' said Jeff Jacks, an Austin neighborhood leader. ''El Paso needs cleaner gas for their air quality problems, and so we end up shipping gasoline across our aquifer. None of it makes much sense.''
J. J. Pickle, a Democrat who represented this area in Congress for 31 years, until 1994, says he cannot remember a similar controversy.
''Fifty years ago things like this pipeline were just automatic,'' he said. ''People didn't think there was another side to putting in pipelines.''
Longhorn has agreed to a long list of protective measures as a condition for reopening the line. But officials here have vowed to fight the move, insisting that the line be rerouted around the Edwards Aquifer.
''My message is very direct: Put this pipeline somewhere else,'' Representative Lloyd Doggett, a Democrat who replaced Mr. Pickle, said this week at a meeting that drew 2,000 people.
Oil and Texas have been synonymous since the Old Spindletop field was discovered in East Texas in 1901. The state has 250,000 miles of underground oil and gas pipelines, more than any other, said Gene Acuna of the Texas Railroad Commission, which regulates the network.
Local sensitivities to pipeline safety were heightened by an explosion on a pipeline in Bellingham, Wash., that killed three people in June 1999. And on Thursday a $35 million settlement was announced between the federal government and Koch Industries of Wichita, Kan., arising from oil spills in rural areas. Texas will receive $17.5 million of that settlement.
Between 1993 and 1996 there were 614 incidents involving pipeline safety along the 150,000 miles of intrastate lines regulated by his office, Mr. Acuna said, and three reported deaths.
With high technology now driving the Texas economy, oil is no longer king. In the 1950's, when the Longhorn pipeline was built, oil represented over a quarter of Texas' total economic output and employed 233,000 Texans, more than 10 percent of the state's work force.
Oil and gas have slipped to 11.9 percent of the state's gross product and 3 percent of the work force. By comparison, the high-tech industry employs over 100,000 in Austin alone and more than 500,000 statewide. The technology industry has surpassed oil's role in the economy and now totals 12.5 percent of the state's gross product, the State Comptroller's Office said.
''Our real economic resource is not minerals, but our quality of life,'' Mr. Doggett said. ''Our quality of life is what attracts the talented people. And you cannot get those people if you are next to a smelly oil well or a potentially exploding or leaking pipeline.''
Don Martin, a spokesman for Longhorn, counters that it would take 12,000 tanker trucks to move the volume of gasoline that would be transported by the pipeline.
''Now you tell me which represents the greater environmental and quality-of-life risk: an underground pipeline that no one ever sees or 12,000 tanker trucks in the street?'' Mr. Martin asked.
The dispute illustrates the declining influence of the oil industry, Mr. Pickle said. But just as important, he said, is the growth in agencies and laws to protect the environment. ''It's not just that the oil industry has gotten weaker, but that the citizens and the environmental groups have gotten so much stronger,'' he said.
Another way Texas has changed, Mr. Martin said, is that El Paso and West Texas have become more politically sophisticated. ''They are growing and want to be part of the state's economy,'' he said. ''They are the ones who are really pushing for this pipeline.''
Mr. Pickle, 86, says the battle over the pipeline reminds him of struggles over prisons in his legislative career: ''Everybody wants people to go to jail, but nobody wants a prison built near them.''
Opponents of the pipeline are pressing for an environmental impact statement, which could delay the project for several years.
''You are going to see from this an uprising in other parts of the state.'' Mr. Pickle said. ''Houston and El Paso are going to say: 'We need that gas. It gives us jobs, it helps our air, it helps our cities grow.' ''Continue reading the main story

What can be done about youth unemployment in Europe?
So, what can be done about the problem of youth unemployment? It's a massive problem with no clear solutions, and this is party the reason why it has already escalated to such worrying heights. Understandably, individual European governments have not got money to throw at the problem. It is therefore necessary to think outside the box, and suggest alternatives like becoming freelancer writers or journalists. Clearly, there are downsides to this too – job instability and lack of previous work to name a couple – and certain governments don't make this a particularly easy path for young people to take. In Spain, amongst other countries, freelance workers are required to pay a certain amount of money to the government per month for the privilege of not working for a company. This means that for many, especially those just starting to work, freelancing is not a viable option as they do not make enough profit once they have paid their fee to the government. Another option for young people looking to go down a less conventional route is in start-up companies – either working for one, or creating their own. This too can have its disadvantages, but no job is completely perfect. Start-ups can become very successful with some hard work and an innovative idea, and investment can come from private companies both in their home country and abroad. The added benefit is of course that start-ups can employ more people once they start to grow. In the mean time, however, governments should focus on keeping young people in school for as long as possible, so that they leave with decent qualifications and have various options open when deciding what to do with their future.

Camden Market – London
If you're ever bored in London – which is basically an oxymoron anyway – go to Camden Market. It's probably one of the coolest, craziest and most interesting places in the city. Contrary to popular belief (actually I don't know what the popular belief is) Camden Market is not all goth clothes and piercing studios. Apart from the fake designer (sorry, you're not fooling anybody) handbags and Union Jack print sunglasses, there's actually a ton of really nice, cheap and often handmade jewelry on sale in the crafts part of the market. It's also a good place to get unique ornaments and stuff like vintage posters and Beatles records. My favourite part of the whole place is, of course, the food. Outside by Camden Lock, there are a bunch of food stands where you can get more or less any cuisine you want. There's often a paella stall, a Jamaican curry stall, an Indian stall, a Chinese stall, crepes and waffles… Extremely popular with foreign teenagers on school trips, Camden Market is just as much fun for those of us who live here, and even if you don't buy anything, it's still fun to go and have a look around. If you have time, go to Cyberdog, which is probably one of the weirdest places I have ever been in my life. It's like walking into an alternate universe with music so loud you can't hear the person next to you speak, and 'dancers' dressed in silver covered in neon paint 'dancing' in cage things attached to the walls…..
the fête de la musique – Paris
Every 21st of June or every first day of summer in Paris, there's a really cool cultural event called « Fête de la musique ». It's a day dedicated to music, it's a « music day » and its purpose is to celebrate the longest day of the year. It starts at 6pm and lasts until around 1am. During this period you can be as loud and creative as you can ! It's very nice because the 21st of June is usually a very hot day in Paris which makes the evening just perfect. Many streets are closed to cars and are invaded by musicians, dancers and mostly young people and teens wandering around, stopping to watch and eventually dance !
It's not only a day to play music but also to discover new artists. Music is heard anywhere you go, and it's also very different from one place to another, some are professional, some are just a group of 5 boys having fun playing songs of their favorite bands. If you go to the Jewish neighbourhood you might see a bunch of rabbis dancing on a techno remix of traditionnal jewish music. The gay neighbourhood is quite epic too with all those men dressed as women and women dressed as men getting crazy on loud club music. I think the most romantic spot remains the quays of Notre-Dame where groups of friends gather with their instruments watching the sun set on the Seine. If you come to Paris, try to be there with friends on June 21st ! It's a really fun way to visit the city by night.

After a rough week, and a number of tears shed, I finally feel like I am getting back to feeling normal. I appreciate all of the kind words and I am feeling encouraged. It still was a week for some pretty awful news, but God has lifted me up and provided me with some smiles and some perspective this week that has brought me up out of the despair I was feeling.
Psalm 40:1-3
1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
3 He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the LORD
and put their trust in him.
Here is a song by U2 that I have always liked, and it is short, so listen, and I hope you feel encouraged today too :)

HAHA jkjk I'm sorry I'm a bit high due to the lack of sleep.
Either way it was super fun! We watched Mockingjay Part 1.
I'm sorry all THG fans, we all agreed afterwards that that Doraemon would have had more plot development.
Told you all we should have watched Doraemon
And we spent close to three hours playing Cards Against Humanity, using every single card in the box lol
All in all, it was really fun (I've said this haven't I, idk I'm tired), and I never would have thought it was possible to be such close friends with competitors in a competition. Just goes to show how NEmation is one of a kind 😀
I sincerely hope that we can continue this friendship for decades :DD

Copyright 2019 Lasagesse English Toy Terriers
You can expect an English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan) to live up to 15 years when properly cared for. They are generally a very healthy breed with few health issues, but there are a few to be aware of.
Keeping your ETT fit and healthy starts with a healthy diet.
Feeding & Nutrition
To begin with, your breeder will give you a feeding schedule and it's important to stick to it to avoid any upset stomachs.
You can change a puppy's diet, but this needs to be done gradually by mixing a small amount of the new food into with the old food and increasing slowly over a week. If your dog develops an upset stomach, it's best to put them back on their original diet and discuss things with your vet or breeder before attempting to change it again.
How often to feed your dog
It's best to feed a mature dog twice a day, once in the morning and then again in the evening. Puppies will need to be fed 3 times a day until they are mature.
What to feed your ETT?
Raw Feeding
ETTs are a toy breed and must be fed a diet that's suitable for a small dog. Many English Toy Terrier owners feed their dog a BARF diet consisting of raw meat, bone, offal and sometimes; fruits, vegetables and supplements.
Get Started with Raw Feeding PDFIf you require more information there are knowledgable friendly groups on facebook that can help.
Kibble & Dry Food
Other ETT owners feed high quality kibble formulated for a toy breed. When feeding kibble, pay attention to the ingredients and watch out for:
- Single sources of protein
Look for specifics e.g. chicken rather than general meat
- Whole meat source listed as 1 of the first 2 ingredients
- 80/20 diet – 80% protein, 20% fruits, vegetables and botanicals, 0% grain
- Whole vegetables, fruits, herbs, spices and botanicals
- Meat by-products and derivatives
- "General" animal fat source – look for specifics e.g. chicken fat or beef fat.
The more general the source, the more suspect the ingredient
- Artificial preservatives
Including BHA, BHT, or ethoxyquin
- Artificial colours & flavours
E numbers
- Artificial texture enhancer propylene glycol
- Artificial sweetners
Corn syrup, sucrose, ammoniated glycyrrhizin, and other sweeteners are sometimes added to lower-quality foods to increase their appeal
Health Issues to be aware of
Though the English Toy Terrier is generally a very healthy breed there are a few health issues to be aware of. These are now quite rare thanks to careful health screening by responsible breeders.
Like all pedigree breeds, The English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan) can suffer from certain hereditary health problems, pre-breeding health tests and health screening is available for some of these. Veterinarians, The Kennel Club and The English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan) breed club recommend testing for the following conditions prior to breeding.
Patella Luxation
Vet screening of breeding stock is available.
A score of 0 is desirable but a score of 1 is also acceptable when bred with a dog with a score of 0.
Juvenile Dilated Cardiomyopathy
A DNA screening test is available.
Von Willebrand's disease
A DNA screening test is available.
Hereditary Deafness
DNA screening is available.
There are a handful of other health issues that have a hereditary element to them that are also found within English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan) breed lines.
Currently, the following health issues cannot be screened for:
Demodetic Mange
Legg-Calve-Perthes Disease
Heat Stress
Eye Conditions
The English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan) have short, dense coats so do not need a lot of grooming. A weekly brush and a very occasional bath is all it all takes to keep them looking good. You can also add supplements to their diet such as salmon oil, coconut oil and kelp to help keep their coat full and shiny.
They shed (minimally) all through the year, but more so during the darker months when they coats get thinner. When the sun returns their coats improve.
It's also important to check a dog's ears on a regular basis and to clean them when necessary. Visit your veterinarian at least once a year and have your dog checked and have the vaccinations kept up to date.
Dental Care
80% of dogs have some form of periodontal disease by the age of 3, so your dog's dental care is hugely important. You should brush your dogs teeth a minimum of 3 times a week for 2-5minutes at a time, if your dog will allow. Early training is key. You can also use dental chews and/or a dental water additive that you can buy online or from most pet shops.
Dental Care Guide PDF
The blood supply is called a quick. In a short nail, the quick will be short.
The quick grows with the nail. A long nail will have a long quick.
- If you cut here, you will cut the quick and the nail will bleed
- If you cut here, the blood supply/quick will recede
Clip or use a Dremel/grinder to file a little off each day. The quick will start to die back.
Every time you trim the nail, the quick dies back further.
Once the quick has receded sufficiently, the nail can be cut to the correct length, without bleeding.
A correctly trimmed nail. Short with a short quick.

Mental health and wellbeing
Our advisers offer:
- advice, information and support if you have concerns about your mental health, whether you are thinking about applying to university, have already applied or are currently studying here.
- assessment of any practical support requirements you may need and liaise with your school to ensure that they are met. This could include extra time in exams or for assignments, for example.
- advice about your eligibility for additional funding; Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA) and how to apply for it. If you think you are eligible for DSA, we recommend you apply for it a few months before you are due to arrive at university. For example, DSA can pay for one-to-one mentor or study skills support.
- acting as a link between your NHS (or other external agencies) treatment team and the University.
We also provide advice and training to teaching and support staff within the University, so they can better support the students they work with who have mental health difficulties. Our aim in this is to help create a positive environment, challenging stigma about mental health difficulties so that you can succeed at university. Our Mental Health Policy Statement and guidance explains this in more detail.
Is this different to counselling?
Our advisers and counsellors can all help students who are experiencing emotional or psychological difficulties. However, the main difference is that the advisers concentrate on practical support rather than therapeutic work. Don't worry if you aren't sure which type of service to choose – we all work closely together and can advise you what may be appropriate to your needs.

Features: In many ways it's the VSTi synth I've always wanted; fat, analog, sweet filter, with great modulation features. It also has a killer FM/ringmod implementation that goes beyond the original OB's capabilities by allowing one or both of the oscillators to be a sine wave.
Download the demo, try it. You'll be hooked.
UI: Very authentic. Some of the controls are a little on the small side, and some things won't be obvious until you read the manual.
Presets: wonderful banks with emulations from other synths, and the Famous bank is hilarious- I could name almost every song each patch was used in.
Customer support: lots of updates, fast e-mail response. Very good.
Value for money: this thing is a bargain at $99, plain and simple.
Stability: Rock solid. CPU use is a little higher than most, but very similar to, say, the TAL Uno-60. Totally worth it though.Read more

If you're looking for a realistic, sweet, FAT analog vsti, this is the most realistic, sweetest, FATTEST one I've ever found! When they said Oberheim OB-X clone, they weren't kidding!
I'm not the one to design sounds, even though it's easy enough with the GUI, I just use the presets given and they give 400 of them for your use! I particularly enjoy the leads provided because of my particular use and they are colorful. I enjoy the variety.
It has an attractive GUI that mimicks the Oberheim OB-X pretty well, although using it's keyboard with the mouse is a little difficult trying to hit the black notes.
The one real gripe I do have about it, however, is that notes hang in Sonar when stopping and editing midi and you restart the song until it hits the particular note(s) that's hanging. Other than that, it tracks really well!Read more

I also recently picked up MiniMonsta and IMPOscar which I also love for different reasons but I have to say the OP-X has won my heart over even both of those two well respected synths. The lead sounds are thick and ballsy. The sweeps are great. Lots of great brassy sounds.
I have never actually played an Oberheim synth, but I hear from other people who have, that this emulation is very very good. I sort of don't care whether its authentic. It sounds fat and ballsy and that's all I care about.Read more

You may have noticed that there are many spelling differences between what we consider to be American English and what we consider to be Canadian English. The latter may derive much of its spelling conventions from British English, but as you can imagine, there are still substantial differences between Edinburgh and Edmonton. We certainly don't refer to the "boots" of our cars or the "nosh" that we need, for example.
Today's post certainly can't cover all the spelling differences between Canada and the United States, but I am to discuss many of the main ones.
The Issue of the Added "U"
In Canada, the convention is to spell words like colour and valour with a U, but that letter is generally omitted in the American form: color and valor. As I continue to write on the Internet, largely for an American audience, I've found myself shifting to that spelling too. Ironically, I have an American friend who insists on adding the U. Go figure.
Ending in -ER or -RE
I imagine this might have something to do with the French heritage that makes up a significant part of Canadian history, but we spell the word "centre" rather than "center" like our American friends. This can refer to the middle of something or it can refer to a venue, like The Centre in Vancouver for Performing Arts.
Similarly, a Canadian might go to the bank to cash a cheque, whereas the American would cash a check. But remember that when you're at a Canadian restaurant, you ask for the bill and not the check/cheque.
Offence and Defense
I'm not really sure why this is, but "offense" (and "defense") is the preferred spelling in American English, whereas "offence" (and "defence") is generally used in other parts of the world. Interestingly, whereas Americans tend to use "practice" as both the noun and the verb, Canadians differentiate: "practice" is a noun, whereas "practise" is a verb.
Swapping the S for a Z
British and Canadian English typically utilizes an "S" in words like recognisable and cognisant, whereas American English spells these words as recognizable and cognizant. The same can be said about words like realize (realise) and analyze (analyse). Interestingly, both Americans and Canadians write words like immunize and industrialize, whereas our British counterparts write immunise and industrialise.
And the Extra Letters
Now, this isn't always the case, but I have found that British (and by extension, Canadian) English tends to spell words with more letters than their American counterparts. The American version tends to drop letters that don't add anything to the pronunciation, for better for for worse.
In Canada, we might say that we had a dialogue about the analogue catalogue, while an American may say that he had a dialog about the analog catalog. Similarly, Canadian spelling has a habit of double-letters, as is the case with cancelled, medallist and counsellor. Americans drop the second "L" in all three of those words. For some reason, though, the reverse is true for words like fulfillment and instill.
What about ales and lagers? If you're looking to order a pint on tap in Vancouver, you might ask for some draught beer, but it's draft beer if you head to Seattle. Similarly, we have doughnuts and Americans have donuts, but both "draft" beer and "donuts" are gaining in popularity here too.
Dropping Some E
Because of some historical context (which I won't get into), Canadians also maintain the "ae" formation in words like anaestesia and haemophilia, while Americans drop the "A" to write anesthesia and hemophilia. You'll also find that Canadian and British spelling would say we write ageing and liveable, while Americans tend to write aging and livable.
And finally, we have words that are not only spelled differently; they're pronounced differently too. In the States, you have aluminum (ah-loo-min-um). While more Canadians are spelling and saying it that way too, the original British would say you should have aluminium (ah-loo-min-EE-um). There's an "extra" syllable in there.
A Useful Resource
All of these differences can make things very confusing for people who are learning English as a second language and, indeed, difficult for even us native speakers. There's a great database at LukeMastin.com that lists some Canadian, British and American spelling of common words. It's not comprehensive either, but it is quite extensive.

Stabbing victim speaks on Walker plea deal
Sigourney, Iowa- On April 27, Johnathan Walker entered an Alford Plea to felony Willful Injury. As part of a plea agreement, County Attorney John Schroeder will ask at Walker's July sentencing that he be sentenced to a suspended five-year prison term, and in lieu of prison time, be sentenced to supervised probation. However, Joseph Benardo, the man who was stabbed by Walker, says that is not enough.
In a recent interview with the News-Review, Benardo said that he knew Walker prior to the attack and had considered him a close friend before.
"There was a time we were like brothers, shared an apartment together in Marengo. We were close," Benardo said.
He added that around March 2, Walker contacted him and Bernardo offered to let him come move in with him.
"He told me he was in a bad way, a bad spot," Benardo said.
On the night of the stabbing, Benardo said that he, Walker, and Walker's girlfriend were going to meet someone about a possible construction job for Walker. Benardo said that he had let Walker drive his car. As they were driving back to Benardo's home in What Cheer, he said that Walker pulled over and asked him to drive. As Bernardo walked around the car to hop in the driver's seat, Walker stabbed him in the chest.
"I was dumbstruck. I didn't see this coming. There was no provoking," Benardo said.
After he was stabbed, Benardo said Walker grabbed a baseball bat out of the trunk of Benardo's car and started to chase him, stabbing him with the knife along the way. Eventually, Benardo said he slumped down into a ditch.
"He kept hitting me with my bat and I was like 'John, why are doing this to me John, you're killing me John.' I laid there with my arm over, he got a couple more swings in, I just tried not to move at this point, because I saw my arm deformed. He went to the car and then he took off up to a house up the road," Benardo said.
Walker fled with Benardo's car, and cell phone. After he fled, Benardo said he staggered through a ditch, trying to make it to a nearby house to call for help.
"I'm trying to get to that house, it was the closest thing I could see. My cell phone was in my car. I couldn't make it to that house. I was tired. I was so tired. I was drained of energy. My mouth was dry. I fell over my own feet on the blacktop and I didn't have the strength to get up. And that's where I laid," Benardo said.
Keokuk County Deputies were dispatched to the scene in reference to a 911 call. They found Benardo laying on the pavement on the highway. Benardo said he remembers asking the deputy to warn his wife.
"I saw black boots, red lights, I said over and over, my address and I said 'Johnny Walker did this. Warn Jodi, my wife,'" he said.
Walker was transported to the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics for treatment of his wounds. He was released the morning after the stabbing, something Walker's defense attorney tried to use to his client's benefit in arguing for a reduced bail. Benardo said that the reason why he was released so early was because he had been through a traumatic incident, an operation at the hospital and was able to do exactly what the nurse told him he needed to do to leave.
"I'd just been through a very traumatic ordeal. I was afraid," Benardo said.
Walker was arrested on March 3 and charged with Attempted Murder. Not long after the stabbing and Walker's eventual arrest, Benardo said he met with County Attorney John Schroeder about the case.
"When I first talked to the County Attorney, he made it a point to tell me that according to Mr. Walker, it was a drug deal gone bad. Attorney Schroeder said to me, 'even if that were the case, look at how many times he stabbed you, it's clearly attempted murder.' He was going to prosecute. I shook his hand and I said thank you," Benardo said.
Benardo and his wife also strongly disagreed with Walker's claim that it was a drug deal gone bad. Benardo said that it was an unprovoked attack and to this day, he doesn't understand what he did to warrant it.
"Just 35-40 minutes before the incident, he took a picture with me. Buddy-buddy. What changed? The drive home? How did we go from buddy-buddy arm in arm, to he can't even say he's sorry, he can't even say anything," Benardo said.
Life went on for Benardo through March and April, as he slowly tried to come to grip with what had happened. Benardo said that because of his injuries, he wasn't able to continue working in his construction job at this time.
"It's beautiful weather, I'm supposed to be working. Can't do any of it. I walk with a limp. I can't hold nails. I'm scared to even try to use a saw. Can't get up a ladder. Can't climb and fix a roof. I can't enjoy what I used to enjoy, outside working," he said.
Benardo said he was slowly getting accustomed to the changes in his life and slowly starting to deal with the stress/flashbacks from that fateful evening. Then on week of April 23, a deputy sheriff knocked on his door. Benardo said that the deputy had been sent due to difficulties in reaching him due to still not having a replacement cell phone. Benardo said that he was asked to contact County Attorney John Schroeder regarding the case.
"Call him, and he just tells me matter of factly, he's offered this plea deal, he's already done this. I'm more than welcome to come down to his office to discuss this," Benardo said. "I said I don't agree. I told him I don't agree. My bills, my rent, my life is affected by this incident," he also said.
Benardo also alleged that he was told by County Attorney John Schroeder that he did not believe Benardo's story.
"Rather coldly, he said that quite basically and frankly, he doesn't believe my part of the story, that was basically it," he said.
Benardo decried the plea agreement with Walker, saying it simply isn't enough.
"Four months in jail, five years' probation for stabbing somebody 17 times and beating them with a bat 12 times, leaving them in a ditch for dead and taking off with their car. That's justice here? That's what kind of citizen I am, that's what my life is worth in this county?" Benardo said, showing emotion over the plea agreement.
Benardo said he fears Walker will come back and "finish the job". He said he is curious as to how to prevent this from happening again.
"So how do we prevent this from happening again? Nobody knows. Whose responsibility is it to find out? Is it Joe Benardo's responsibility to find out? Or is it the Court's? Whose responsibility is it to protect me? Is it Joe Benardo's responsibility? Or is it the legal system?" Benardo asked.
He pondered what it would take to have justice in his case.
"Why so lenient a sentence? Because he didn't finish the job? If I die, if those officers were late and I died, would I have justice then? Is that what I need? To die for justice. Or to be upheld by a citizen of this community. Do I not live here like everyone else? Do I not abide by the same laws as everyone else?" he asked.
For his part, County Attorney John Schroeder said he empathized with Benardo and what he has gone through the past two months. However, Schroeder said that only three people know what happened on the night of the stabbing- Benardo, Walker, and Walker's girlfriend Jamie Flak.
"None of these crimes prove themselves. I don't know and I cannot prove what happened," Schroeder said of the crime.
Schroeder added that in a case like this, he is left with searching for the facts and trying to secure a conviction.
"I'm left with the task with what I can prove and attempting to get that accomplished," Schroeder said.
Schroeder also added in a written statement that he believed the plea agreement was the best opportunity to secure a conviction.
"I arrived at the terms and conditions of the Johnathan James Ray Walker plea agreement based upon my assessment of the available crimes, respective elements of each crime, standard of proof, evidence and available defenses. I concluded that the plea agreement provides the best opportunity to secure a felony conviction based upon the foregoing considerations," Schroeder said.

TUESDAY 20th SEPTEMBER 6.30 – 7.30 pm
This information evening is designed for a small group of up to only 12 persons as an introduction on how to invest in commercial property
This Masters Course in Commercial Property has been especially designed for those who wish to learn and invest in commercial property (e.g. shops, offices, factories etc) where the yields are far in excess of residential property and the chances of capital gain are the same or better.
Many commercial properties can be purchased for same price as a residential property so are well within the reach of the average investor.
We believe commercial property is in the early stages of a long-term growth cycle. Increased demand from residential investors seeking higher yields, immigrants starting businesses, and local businesses expanding have started to fuel an upward trend in the commercial market.
The commercial property cycle runs at a different speed and frequency to the residential cycle and is now past its recovery phase and into the early stages of a boom.
Now is the time to invest in commercial property before it becomes the next boom market. This process won't happen overnight, but will play out over the coming years. Those starting now will enjoy the more profitable deals, while those late to the party will find it more difficult to achieve similar results.
The Commercial Property Masters Program is for investors who are new to commercial property investing and want to equip themselves for success in this field.

A 12-month program designed to give you an individualised strategy and knowledge to kickstart your commercial property investing journey and help you achieve your financial goals.
Stage 1: Setup (Analysis, Plan & Education)

• Property finding advice • Desktop due diligence on potential acquisitions • 7-day access to the Newland Burling team • Quarterly evening functions.
"We would have made terrible mistakes without them, seriously. They do know what they're talking about."
- Ivan Morris
"There are property mentorship programmes that you pay a lot more for so we were comfortable with the price. A lot of people would think it was a huge amount of money whereas for us the property we bought for $1.5 million is now worth about $2.1 to $2.2 million in a year. We made a lot of money from it. And we wouldn't have bought that property had we not done the program. What we paid pales in comparison to what we made."

PLEASE NOTE: If you are interested you should be aware that commercial property should not be confused with residential property. The rules and regulations that the Reserve Bank has announced over the past year or two do NOT apply to commercial. There are no LVR rules from the RB for commercial. There is no Tenancy Tribunal to interfere with your rights, and no limitation on bonds. Commercial tenants usually pay all outgoings such as rates, insurance water etc and almost always internal repairs and management fees. Most commercial tenancies have proper leases which fully set out the rights and obligations of all parties and these need careful analysis. As Authorised Financial Advisers we are able to give you personal financial advice on all your financial affairs to ensure that you get the best opportunities to get ahead.

Hello Suren,
You can not type text in a field in the Form Builder.
However, if you want to set a text in a field that is going to appear on the form before the user types, you can do it as the following:
1. You can set a "Placeholder" to the field, and the field text will appear a little bit faded in order to indicate to the user it is preferred to be edited before submitting as you can see the screenshot below:
If the user submits without typing any value to that field, the field in the related submission will be shown as empty.
Placeholder is just like an "Example" value to show the user how s/he is going to fulfill the field.
2. You can set a "Default Value(predefined value)" to the field, and the field text that you have already set as default will appear in the field as you can see the screenshot below:
If the user submits the form without touching to the field that you have set a predefined option, you will receive the submission with the value just like the user has fulfilled.
All in all, you can set them both as you can see the following screenshot below:
Please try. If you need further assistance, do not hesitate to contact us.
Thanks in advance.
