Social media has taken over the internet world by storm. If you're not advertising your web page on these sites in some fashion, then you are missing out on a huge piece of the puzzle. Use this article to learn what you need to know about marketing your site on these platforms.
Whenever you're having a sale or a special promotion, you should use social media to promote it. You can post on Facebook, Twitter, a blog, and whatever other social networking sites you use and get your sale viewed by hundreds, if not thousands of people. It's a quick and free way to get people to know about your promotions.
Make sure your blog has excellent content that engages, educates, and inspires. A great blog serves as the cornerstone of your social media marketing. When you create content that people cannot wait to read, they will keep coming back. The bottom line is that good content is what is behind any type of media, and social media marketing is no exception.
To draw the right kind of visitors to your site, use YouTube in your marketing with social media. Using this site is an effective way to attract consumers to your Internet site, because viewing videos gives them a lot of information about your products. It boosts sales when people who visit a product site already know what the product is about.
Establish your goal for a social media campaign. If you do not know what you hope to achieve with your campaign, you won't know when you have been successful. Are you looking for product awareness, concrete sales, or better customer service? When you can answer these questions, building a strategy is an easier step.
You can whip up shopper-friendly storefronts with your social media campaign. Your main website is the most important, of course, but it is possible to set up a Facebook store that can be visited from any post on your account. This makes it easy for avid Facebook users to find your site as they navigate Facebook, and and enable them to buy your product on the spot. You don't have to drag people over to your website, you can let them buy right on Facebook!
Do not forget to post a link to your website or blog on your social network profiles. If someone hears about your products on a social network, they will need to have access to more information and see what you use as a storefront before they can decide to buy anything.
Tailor your posts to your target audience's experiences. You should write about things your customers can relate to or they will not share your content with their friends. Take the time to read the status updates your customers are posting and identify recurring themes and issues you could mention in your own posts.
While having various ads on social media sites, you should definitely have a few special deals for your business. This will give your potential buyers incentive to click on your ad. By having specials on your ads, and only on these ads, the customers feel slightly more obligated to go there and see what your business has to offer.
Make sure you post new pictures regularly on Facebook or Twitter. Your friends and followers probably have a lot of content appear in their feeds, and they will be more likely to notice a picture rather than a text. You could very easily create different photo galleries for your products.
Aspects to take into account in order to create a social media strategy
Be careful when hiring a company to handle marketing via social media. Media companies of this nature are often scam operations out to bilk novice marketing businesses. They use a lot of fake social media accounts which were made by registration bots and/or utilizing proxy servers. The fact that they are using fake registration to portray the image that you are being exposed at excellent levels will cost you a great deal in money for little or no benefit in reality.
Social media has taken over the internet world by storm. If you're not advertising your web page on these sites in some fashion, then you are missing out on a huge piece of the puzzle. Use this article to learn what you need to know about marketing your site on these platforms.

Despite plans to break up later this year, Yellowcard have consistently inspired their fans throughout the band's two decades of existence. The release of their fifth studio album, Lights and Sounds, was no exception.
Speaking to Fuse back in 2006, frontman Ryan Key described the extremely personal album as a "group therapy session" and "the closest thing to us that we've ever done."
When asked if they're worried about losing fans who might not connect with the album, Key said, "We really try not to alienate anyone with it. People that have been with us this long, hopefully they're gonna stick with us through everything we do."

Women in business have been often described as invisible (Allen & Langowitz, 2003) resulting in calls for research to investigate women's contributions to family firms (FF) (Martinez Jimenez, 2009). Female employees can legitimately accuse the existence of "glass ceiling" that prevent their advancement in the managerial ranks (Powell, 1999). Compared with male employees in equivalent positions, female employees may find that their perspectives are overlooked and their contributions devalued (Ridgeway et al., 2009).
Our interest is in better understanding this discrimination and possible ways to change it. How do education, job tenure, job category and industry knowledge impact on the probability of being promoted to managerial positions in FF and non FF? How does gender moderate this probability?
To answer these questions we employee a mixed method approach. In the quantitative part, we adopt a longitudinal dataset produced by Statistics Sweden with annual observations on all Swedish privately held firms, Swedish inhabitants, and family ties. This allow us to reconstruct the career path of all the employees that received a promotion to a managerial position in a Swedish company in the last 10 years. Our unique dataset allows us to match their salaries and career development recognizing the existence of gender discrimination. These results will be illustrated through a qualitative part, with interesting cases offering an in-depth understanding of the phenomenon.
Our results confirm the existence of gender discrimination, for example in the salary paid by Swedish companies. Understanding the impact of educational choices, job categories and family choices on career paths for men and women, offers fundamental insights for managers, HR specialists, and policy makers. Moreover, it provides a unique opportunity for this interactive workshop to discuss the family business values, and how to develop a stronger family business responsibility against gender discriminations.

- 2010 Bordeaux:List of the top Bordeaux labels by scores
About Bordeaux wines futures
One of Jean-Marc's major strong points is the fact that he is based in Bordeaux. This enables him to follow the situation on site closely, from June to September, during the vines' ripening process, then during harvest. He tastes the wines when they are very young and not yet blended. He anticipates their quality and discovers the most talented winegrowers. Indeed, "a wine's potential depends on what happens in the vineyard".
In March his judgment of the new vintage is strong and very well documented.
During the En primeur campaign, full details are published in French.
For the English readers he publishes a detailed report which highlights the fundamentals of the vintage and also his scores of more than 500 wines.
After the bottling he keeps on tasting and judging the wines to inform his readers about their development.

A recent Administrative Appeals Tribunal decision (Whitby & Secretary, Department of Health) has shed light on the treatment of a loan that is received by a care recipient when it is applied to the purchase of a Refundable Accommodation Deposit (RAD).
In this case, the mother in a family needed to enter a residential aged care facility which required the payment of a Refundable Accommodation Deposit. Her husband obtained a loan of $120,000 to fund part of this cost from their son and daughter, with loan agreements put in place.
The previous treatment by Department of Human Services had been that the loan did not reduce the value of the asset to be counted in assessing means-tested care fees, so the full value of the RAD was to be applied. The AAT decision has overturned that treatment, with the loan balance being deducted from the RAD value.
A care recipient does always of course have the option of paying a Daily Accommodation Payment (DAP) – which is effectively a decision to finance the RAD. The rate as at 1 January 2016 is 6.22% per annum.
Although this ruling has changed the interpretation, it isn't entirely clear as to whether there is a large benefit to arranging a loan from family members, rather than using the DAP. In this case, the loan had interest capitalising so it may provide some benefit where the person entering care is asset rich, but cash poor, while other family members have sufficient capital and other income available that they do not need to receive their return immediately, so long as it is later received from the estate.
There is also the possibility that this interpretation might be appealed or legislation updated, given the decision was contrary to the interpretation applied by the Department of Human Services – so practitioners should ensure they review current rules before providing advice.

By calculating the return on assets (ROA), one can learn a lot about a company's profits relative to its total assets during a period. It is an indicator/formula to evaluate how efficient a company's management is at using its assets to generate earnings. Return on assets also known as "Return on Investment". Investors and analysts perform the calculation of a company's ROA to other companies' ROA of the same industry for analysis of company's capability to earn returns on its invested assets.
In this article, we will discuss the following:
- What is Return on Assets? – Definition & Analysis
- ROA Formula
- How to Calculate Return on Assets (ROA) in Excel?
- Limitations of ROA
What is Return on Assets (ROA)? – Definition & Analysis
Return on assets (ROA) aka return on investments (ROI) serves as a returns ratio allows business owners, managers, analysts, and even investors to analyze how efficiently the company is using its total assets to generate earnings. Here, total assets include all assets such as cash, inventory, and receivable accounts.
Since the company assets' sole purpose is to generate profits and revenues, this ratio allows both management and investors see how well a company is using its assets' investments into profits. As an investor, you can use ROA metric in the evaluation of return on investment.
Technically, it is a quick gauging metric of a company's profitability, which is very easy to compute and interpret.
ROA Formula
It is a metric which calculated in a percentage as:
Return on Assets (ROA) = Net Income / Total Assets
Here the net income comes from the income statement and Total assets come from the balance sheet of the company.
How to Calculate the ROA Ratio in Microsoft Excel?
This ROA formula can also be calculated in Microsoft Excel where one can determine the efficiency of a company in generating earnings in relative to its assets.
For example, let's calculate the ROA ratio of Tata Motors Ltd. As of March 31, 2018, the Tata Motors Ltd. reported Rs 8988.91cr and total assets of Rs 3271918000000.00.
Now that you want to calculate the return on assets of Tata Motors in excel. Let's open a blank Microsoft excel sheet and right click on columns A & B and change the value to "28" for each column in "column width".
- Enter "Tata Motors Ltd." in column B1.
- "Net Income" in cell A3.
- "Rs 8988.91cr" in cell B3.
- "Total Assets" in cell A4.
- "3271918000000.00" in cell B4.
- "Return on Assets" in cell A5.
- "=B3/B4*100" in cell B5.
The resulting value (or return) on assets will appear in cell B5 which is 2.72%. This is the ROA (in percentage) of Tata Motors Ltd.
Comparing Return on Assets of Different Companies
This figure can be compared to the competitor of Tata Motors, such as Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. whose net income for the quarter ending March 31, 2018, was Rs 7,510.39cr and total assets worth of Rs 1,363,693,000,000.00.
Right click on column C and change the value to 28 in the same way.
- Enter "Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd." in column C1.
- "31-Mar-2018" in cell C2.
- "=75103900000.00" in cell C3.
- "=1,363,693,000,000.00" in cell C4.
- "=C3/C4*100" in cell B5.
In comparing both stats, it was found that Tata Motors Ltd. has a return on assets of 2.72% however; the Mahindra & Mahindra has a better return on assets of 5.51% and is better at converting its assets into profit. By looking at both ROAs, it is clear that Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. is better at converting its investments into profits.
It is important for investors to keep that difference in mind because the ROA ratio indicates that which company is taking wise decisions in allocating resources and making large profits with little investments and which company is only throwing a ton of money to make profits.
Limitations of ROA
- Falling return on assets is always a problem but you should bear in your mind that ROA does not account for outstanding liabilities and sometime may signal a higher profit level than actually derived.
- A drawback of return on assets metric is that it does not consider the effect of borrowed capital.
An ROA value above 5% considered good. If a company has ROA above 5% then it is good to make investments in that company.
Hope, this article on "ROA and its calculation in excel" helped you in a way you expected it to be. Nevertheless, if you have any query or would like to add something then doesn't forget to mention in the comment section below. We will be happy to answer all your questions.

Review: "The Fruit of the Spirit is . . ."
The Fruit of the Spirit is . . .
J. V. Fesko
Evangelical Press, 2011, 80pp., paperback, £4.50
What is godliness, and how do I obtain it? J. V. Fesko's book points us to Galatians 5:22-23 for an answer, but puts those verses in their broader context. The result is a book that demands careful thought, for it is both short and deep. Here we see godliness – the fruit of the Spirit – in its place in the broad sweep of redemptive history, in its relation to the Old Testament revelation and to the persons of Christ and the Holy Spirit. We are called to consider not just the fruit itself, but also the tree on which it grows, the soil in which it stands, the nourishment which it receives, and the environment in which it thrives. Much more than a mere "how to" word study, this satisfying book will be a particular help to those seeking holiness without resorting to a quick fix, or counselling those who need to put the pursuit of godliness in its Scriptural context in order to avoid despairing of progress.

Days of Pine and Poses
DURING HIS 4 1/2 years with the Knicks, Coney Island native Stephon Marbury has taken his hometown franchise on a wild ride. His public feud with former coach Larry Brown contributed to Brown's dismissal. Marbury admitted having a tryst with a Knicks intern in the back of his SUV. And who can forget that moment in 2007 when, after losing his starting job, Marbury abandoned the team for one game during a road trip? His memoir could be titled Becoming a Distraction, the Marbury Way.
He's not done. Last week the point guard, who has been inactive for five of the first six games this season, declared his intention to practice with the team from his high school, Abraham Lincoln in Brooklyn. Marbury quickly backpedaled. "I spoke to the players' association, and they said it wouldn't be a good idea," he said. But the question remains: How long will Marbury, 31, be a Knick? New coach Mike D'Antoni prefers to play a younger backcourt rotation, and new CEO Donnie Walsh, who has an aversion to eating contracts, has said he won't waive Marbury, who is in the last year of a deal worth $21.9 million this season. Walsh has also said he won't trade Marbury, but according to NBA sources the Knicks have been shopping him—only to find that the market is nonexistent. "Marbury has near zero trade value," says a Western Conference G.M. "They won't take any long-term deals back, so they are asking for a big expiring contract and young players. No one is going to give them that."
Complicating matters is that Marbury is his own agent, meaning if the Knicks want to discuss a buyout, they must deal directly with him, and Marbury has said he won't take a penny less than he is owed. Thus Marbury will likely remain a Knick for the rest of the season. "He's on the inactive list, and he'll be there until something else changes," says D'Antoni. "And I don't know in the foreseeable future what that is."

U.S. Senator Bill Nelson has withdrawn his support for legislation that would give Navarre Beach residents fee simple title ownership of their property.
Nelson initially agreed to cosponsor the bill with senator Marco Rubio earlier this year, but formally withdrew that support Oct. 23 amid criticism of possible development of the beach.
In a statement from his office Nelson indicated that the reopening of Navarre Pass, a waterway connecting Santa Rosa Sound and the Gulf of Mexico, was his reason for withdrawing.
"The Air Force has made it clear that reopening Navarre Pass would interfere with its testing and training missions. The legislation filed earlier this year doesn't go far enough to prevent future cutting of the pass," the statement reads.
Currently residents of Santa Rosa and Escambia County beaches do not own their land but instead lease it from the county. They pay yearly lease fees in addition to property taxes. Under the bill, SB 1073, property would be conveyed to those leaseholders.
An identical bill was passed by the House of Representatives, brought forward by congressman Matt Gaetz.

Sebastien Tellier! Aside from being a rather attractive fellow — I think he is a bit of a pop genius! I am so loving all of his music. He is from the French pop world. Sometimes lush, sometimes simple melody and sometimes quite magical!
I've been a bad blogger and I've been just as bad with my emails and my phone. I'm sorry. I think I'm trying to find my way out of a dark hole and sometimes it is just hard to concentrate. And, I'm preparing myself for B's having to leave for several days. I don't seem to cope so well these days. Big surprise. However, I am making progress. It is just a slow go I guess.
So, per usual, I've been leaning on music. Of course there are the trusty old stand-by's of Barbra and Goldfrapp — but, these last couple of weeks I've found some other works to drown out all the noise of my days.
Mostly, tho, I've been in a sort of Bach fugue. I pretty much have only listened to these two recordings:
I'm not sure what I'm finding so attractive about Bach's music. I've never paid much attention to it before. I think I find it interesting how his work almost sweeps me up but holds me at a sort of distance — it is quite pretty, but ice cold. Like a glass sculpture that you know wants for touching, but it simply isn't allowed. Bach almost seems forbidden. I don't know.
And, I've been playing this record a lot. I don't think Bagel cares much for it, tho. However, does rock get much better than "Shattered"?!?! This record reminds me that The Rolling Stones will always matter.
My Ing (and she is mine!) gave me this CD last weekend. It rocks! Well, actually, it is more a little country than rock but is quite good! …I especially like "I Am The Sky".
…and, this was a surprisingly great film! See it if you can!

Ooo! I love the French pop! And you too! xoxo
"I Am The Sky"!!! Yes! I've listened to that track over and over again! Will Oldham calls it a "devotional" song. I made Miss S listen to it when I bought the album. Yay!!!!!! So friggin' beautiful. I LOOOVE his really short songs that build up to a crescendo (that's how he structures a lot of his short pieces – going up, key by key, to the end, with a high & somewhat doubtful-sounding note). Have you heard "Raining In Darling"? The purtiest song of unrequited love, ever!
I'm a nerd.
After your and someone else's recommendation I downloaded most of Sebastian Tellier's album….a bit samey to start with e.g. "Rouge" but it's growing on me. I like most 80s synth pop things! He doesn't look like I'd imagined atall!
He is quite hunky. Thanks for posting, I hadn't seen the video. I wish you well on your time apart from B.
I have several Bach Organ recordings. I have made it a habit of listening to them when I am alone at home. Not being distracted and all. His music is ever so powerful, not simple to understand. There are different melodies, with different rhythm,the left hand playing a different melody then the right hand….yet still,harmonizing alltogether.
Bach was another genius and his music not an easy task to play.
Ah, Matty, it is good to see a new post ('course I haven't been around to look for one most of the week).
Not much into the other music… I am not familiar with most of it. And I'm an old fogey. But the Bach! I love to get lost in Bach. I need to get some fugue recordings. I have a good bit of Bach, but no fugues, and they are my favorites!
When does B leave? I'm sending positive thoughts your way. Hold onto your strong, baby!

ALR Industries (ALRI)
Have you heard the buzzword?
ALRI is the word, and ALR supplements are the top nutritional products for you.
What are ALR supplements, you may ask?
Well, it's best to hear it from the person himself who founded ALR Industries. Author L Rea has lived his entire life by a saying that "Whining is not an option for those who refuse to accept mediocrity." After a lifetime spent on bodybuilding, author Rea was determined to apply his knowledge into a new purpose. And ALR Industries was born.
Not only is author L Rea a bodybuilder, he is a scientist behind the development of all the ALR nutritional supplements. As such, the unique selling proposition can be found in the very basics of the products. The basic fact that ALR Industries can provide those who refuse to accept mediocrity, the will and products to achieve their full potential.
After more than three decades, author L Rea has combined biological research and development and accomplished the most effective and inventive supplements for bodybuilding, health and fitness ever created.
Sharing his passion for never accepting mediocrity, author L Rea's products have:
• Powerful anti-catabolic properties
• Enhance focus, energy, mood and stamina
• Boost oxygen uptake and nutrient consumption
• Provide encouraging endogenous hormone inflection, comprising testosterone
• Have anti-fatigue, anti stress and antioxidant properties
But there's more! ALR Industries are different and better than the others simply by being just that – they deliver bodybuilding supplements Australia wide, and their products can present an increase in VO2max and oxygen capacity. In turn, you will achieve more actual free creatine into your blood stream.
So, why settle for average? For instance, ALRI Chain'd Reaction has an innovative generation of a super-overload of glycogen and enactment, being physically transformed and pre-digested for instant use and a protracted performance.
Would you believe, the ALRI Humapro is pushing the envelope in product formulation for those who want real results, and not hype? Results that are going to change an industry.
Why, you ask? Because there is an inherent flaw in most other proteins available on the market, and that flaw is these proteins were not made for humans! So, that gut bloat you are experiencing may be due simply because you are drinking cow proteins instead of human proteins.
And this is where HumaPro comes into the picture as one of a kind protein matrix that ALRI began working on since 1998.
ALR Industries gives the above promises to you, so why settle for average?

Mini Vacation
I did manage to spend part of my Vacation Week on Cape Cod, Dear Readers, visiting my Father and his partner. And while I had hoped I would find time to work on some of my MANY Mini projects, it just was not meant to be. But that does NOT mean my Vacation was Devoid of minis.... on the contrary.... I ran into miniatures and Inspirations at every turn! We decided to go to the Monument Museum in Provincetown, MA, to see an exhibit of old photographs depicting the Town's Fascinating History. The very first photo we saw was the one above (a photo of the photo taken by me).... showing "Delight Cottage" one of the old houses no longer standing. If you look closely you can see the word "Delight" carved in the decorative panels along the porch trim just under the roof.... and you can also see the words "J. Rogers " over the stairs! Well, my Daddy's name is John Rogers! Wouldn't this make a Fantastic House in Miniature????

Diplo Remixes Avicii's "You Make Me": Listen
Diplo has been a busy dude lately, releasing his Revolution EP, a Major Lazer EP, and notching a host of production credits for the likes of Justin Bieber and Britney Spears. His latest endeavor is a reworking of Avicii's chipper "You Make Me," which he's made into more of a lurching head-bobber thanks to some added bass blares and vocal loops. And, of course, he's thrown in some of his trademark dive-bombing synths.

This came up one evening as I was still crashing at my sister's flat while searching for flats. We decided to invite a friend over for dinner and learn some new chants at the same time. So I thought to make something for the occasion. I just pulled all the ingredients from the fridge and this beautiful one came into being. It made me and my sister smile and I hope it does the same for you. Enjoy 🙂
You'll need the following for 3 people:
- 3 leaves of Lamb lettuce (thinly sliced)
- 9 Cherry tomatoes (sliced on half)
- 3 medium carrots (grated)
- Corn on the cob (cooked for 5mins)
- 3 eggs (cooked how you like it)
- Mixed salad of watercress, spinach, rocket
- Red and Orange bell peppers (1 of each roasted for 10mins on 180 degrees oven)
To make:
- Lay the Watercress, spinach and rocket first on the plate
- Add the sliced lamb lettuce
- Top with grated carrot
- Place the tomato halves on the sides of the plate
- Throw in the roasted peppers
- Then scatter the corn seeds on top of the mixture
- And finally place the eggs lovingly on your plate
- Enjoy with your favorite dressing 🙂
Ps: I had mine with honey , mustard, balsamic dressing and it was fab!

On International Day of Action for Women's Health, two women scientists — Dr Renu Swarup, Secretary, Department of Biotechnology, Ministry of Science and Technology, and Chairperson, BIRAC (L) and Dr Gagandeep Kang, Executive Director, Translational Health Science and Technology Institute (R)– talk to Akanki Sharma about their contributions to women's well-being
Keep yourself relaxed, stay happy and fit : Dr Renu Swarup
She elaborates on the various initiatives the Department of Biotechnolgy (DBT) has taken for ensuring women's good health, while also advising them to stay stress-free
Has the Department of Biotechnology come up with any project which would have focussed specifically on the health of women in India?
There is major emphasis on programmes which focus on women's health. In fact, maternal and child health is a priority with us and we have a large number of programmes, both at the Department of Biotechnology and our public sector BIRAC. The emphasis is at providing affordable healthcare intervention, doing early diagnosis of diseases and finding preventive cure. And, in that, we are looking at a large number of initiatives.
Kindly elaborate on these initiatives.
There are a few major initiatives. In fact, in February this year, we launched our programme — the Atal JaiAnusandhan Biotech Mission under which we have GARBH-ini. In this, we are doing a cohort study on pre-term birth, wherein more than 8,000 pregnant women's samples will be collected to study the parameters for pre-term birth, its side effects and early diagnosis. For this, we are bringing a genomics technology that can bring in predictive markers, so that pre-term can be predicted early and actions can be taken to either prevent it or see how we can bring in the intervention into it.
We have also set up one of the largest biorepositories which will have the samples collected and linked with genomics data. In addition, we have tied up with IIT Madras for bringing in artificial intelligence to develop predictive markers. A study has been launched in southern India, which is looking at a similar angle — what are the interventions or what is the growth pattern for pregnant women, what are the interventions that are going to their diet and how a child is being tracked till about two years of age after he/she is born.
A similar study is being conducted in Delhi which is on bringing in improved nutritional intervention to see its impact on pregnancy, childbirth, child rate at that time and the child growth till two years of age.
Some of the common diseases in women include breast and cervical cancer, any steps being taken regarding their prevention?
We are working on different diagnostics screening devices, both for breast cancer and cervical cancer and we also have a number of devices which are in advanced stages of development.
One is thermal image device system, which is with AI tool that looks at the heat map and takes a normal image and then we can do a protective marking. For cervical cancer also, we have a large number of screening devices which are being worked out. Apart from it, we are also supporting a major programme on developing an indigenous HPV vaccine for cervical cancer. Currently, we are using the imported vaccine in one or two states where it has got in but we are supporting one of our Indian manufacturers to come up with the HPV vaccine under our Grand Challenges initiative.
Can biotechnology also contribute towards the menstrual hygiene of women?
We have some programmes that are looking at biodegradable sanitary napkins. Looking at greener technologies, one of the startups is even looking at the way of disposal of sanitary napkins. Of late, we have also awarded one of the startups namely Padcare Labs under our Soch grant. The company is developing a minimum viable product for rapid, easy, economical and eco-friendly sanitary pad sterilisation, partial segregation and disposal at waste generation level which overcomes issues of smell, unhygienic environment and unsafe handling.
You have been working for a longer tenure. How do you maintain a balance between your personal and professional life, specially focussing on keeping yourself healthy?
I wish I could do more than what I do. However, with the time I have, I try to see that I factor in at least the minimal amount that's required for my daily schedule of exercise in the morning before I get into the office. I try to factor in at least 60 minutes of workout schedule either by walking and exercises or yoga. Also, I try to maintain a diet as healthy as possible, whether I am in office or somewhere out. I also try to ensure that I get healthy food from home. That's the maximum I do but I wish I could go beyond it. And, the most important thing is to get a regular check up, so that in case something is not right, I can take an immediate action on it.
Three things you would like to tell working women for keeping themselves healthy?
- You must ensure that you bring in proper diet in your plan. That is because when you are working, you generally tend to neglect your diet.
- You need to factor in proper workout schedule for yourself.
- You need to keep yourself totally relaxed with no stress on your mind. Get yourself so well organised that you don't have any stress because it is going to impact your health. Be excellent in your planning. Manage multitasking beautifully. Stay happy and fit.
Women must find time for themselves: Dr Gagandeep Kang
With major health issues affecting the women of India, she tells how they are always late to come to hospital for checkups. Her advice is that women should keep things in moderation
From the beginning of your career to getting recognised by the Royal Society of London, how has your journey been being a woman scientist?
I think that women scientists in most places tend to be invisible, partly because they are culturally conditioned not to put themselves forward. Fortunately, this trend is changing now but it certainly wasn't the case when I started. I spent most of my career trying to find places to work where I wasn't stepping on somebody's toes. That's how I ended up working on rotavirus vaccine — something that nobody else was interested in. Later on, I discovered that if you work hard enough, long enough and broad enough on any one subject, you become an expert. Thus, I have been recognised for the work I have done and it's indeed because of focus and a long-term commitment.
Also, in health it's not just one person. It's always a contribution of a lot of people who work on a particular problem and I've been lucky that throughout my career, I have worked with some of the most wonderful people.
What are the major health issues women face in India? Working as a scientist all these years, have you worked on anything specific related to women's health?
The one thing that you learn about any aspect of working in medicine in India is that for everything, women will come later to hospital, and it starts at the beginning of life. If you do a survey on girls and boys being brought to hospitals for a particular condition– even for something common like diarrohea or pneumonia, it will be 60 per cent boys and 40 per cent girls. Also, when you work in fields like surgery or medicine, you find that by the time women come for treatments, their tumours would have grown to an extent where they have become inoperable, their chronic medical condition – say diabetes – will be completely out of control.
The work that I have done with women is largely around nutrition, and anemia is a particular problem that we have looked at. You see women with haemoglobin three and four and wonder how they are walking around. Nevertheless, this is something where early pick up and screening could have resulted in women getting just oral therapy, but then it becomes this slow that you have to give them transfusion since that brings along with it a host of other problems.
We have found it difficult to address the problem of anemia in India because we don't initiate treatment early and then we don't follow up on whether the women are responding to the treatment or not. The first thing is simple iron tablets. Many women cannot tolerate iron tablets and stop taking them and we don't know it because there is no monitoring system. Around nutrition, we don't know what the adequacy of a diet is for a pregnant woman in India– how much weight should she be gaining, what should she be eating at the various stages of her pregnancy. So, these are the issues that we are working on now but seeing their effects will take another generation.
Besides, one huge problem that you can look at in India is the height of women. Being under 150 centimetres is a risk factor for many things, particularly for childbirth. Small women will have a smaller pelvis which will mean that their babies will not come out normally. The nutrition problem, when girls grow taller and bigger, that's when you will start seeing the intergenerational effect of the intervention that we do today.
Is Translational Health Science Technology Institute (THSTI) doing anything in the direction of improving women's health? Any specific projects for preventing diseases like breast cancer and cervical cancer?
We are not working on cancers at the moment but we have a huge study going on in Gurugram. This is a cohort of pregnant women that is being followed up. The idea here is to find out why Indian babies are born too soon. Currently, pre-term birth rate in India is higher than anywhere else in the world. One of my colleagues is working on this problem. She has a cohort and we have found that 14 per cent of babies who have been born in the cohort are pre-term. We are also looking at genetics and environmental factors, along with doing multiple ultrasounds in pregnancies– to try to understand 'can you predict which baby is going to be born pre-term and which ones will be going all the way to term'. Although, they already have a clue that if you live with very high environmental pollution inside or outside your house, the chances of preterm birth are much higher.
A 2017 Lancet study says that close to half (48 per cent) of all pregnancies in the country are unintended largely because women have no information about safe sex or don't have access to contraceptives. How do you think this issue can be resolved?
Currently, the norm is for women to have two children. But if you want two of them to grow and develop properly, WHO recommends that you have at least three years of gap between your pregnancies. What happens to us is that once you start having children, you have them at an early age and then you go on to have multiple children at very short intervals because you are not educated and don't have access to contraception. In states where access to contraception is good, the interval between babies is longer. For instance, women have much fewer children and better-spaced pregnancies in Kerala and Tamil Nadu as comparison to Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.
Can state governments play any role in this regard?
In India, we have both oral contraception as well as mechanical devices for contraception. Oral contraception is supposed to be available but it is not frequently provided and this is not something that is discussed frequently because women don't come to health facilities until they are sick. So, you will come for antenatal care because it is required but then you are already pregnant. Now that's a stage where you should be offering counselling and family planning services, for when the baby is delivered and frequently systems are so focussed on the delivery of antenatal care that they forget about the post-pregnancy part– whether it is delivering a copper-T or Copper-7 or giving oral contraceptives.
Contraceptives that women can control is empowering to women and that's the evidence of what's happening to families in southern India.
What specific contribution can biotechnology make towards keeping women healthy?
Biotechnology can contribute in a number of ways if you take it as discovery and use of biologicals, drugs, vaccines and devices. One of those that doesn't get taken into account is how you tailor any of those for women. For instance, dosage of most of the drugs used in India is based on a 70 kilogram man but not everyone is of 70 kilograms.
Women in India tend to be more small, they have hormonal cycles which affects the way their body processes drugs, vaccines or any kind of biological and we don't take those into account. So, when we think about developing new products through biotechnology, it has to be something that is suitable for the entire population, and not just the half of it.
When we design new drugs or develop new biologicals which are intended for treating people, we have to make sure that we are developing them in a way that they are useful for all populations and not just the one.
But how will this be possible? What factors are required to be taken into consideration while the process is going on?
By doing clinical trials that are designed to take these factors into account. Currently, a clinical trial is designed to make sure that the drug or vaccine has the best possible effect on what they call the general population. But frequently the general population is not representative of anything more than where the trial is being done. This is something where even regulatory process can help where the regulators argue that you need subgroups composed of a particular type. For instance, if you say women who are in the reproductive age and women who are not in the reproductive age for diabetes drug, will ensure that you have an efficient number when these products are evaluated for us to have some level of certainty that they will or won't work or won't have side effects.
Amidst the daily busy schedule, how do you ensure to keep yourself healthy?
I run in the morning and do yoga whenever I can. In addition, I eat lots of fruits and vegetables.
Three things you would like to tell working women for keeping themselves healthy?
- Find time for yourself
- Keep things in moderation
- Fads are really not a good idea

Alan Pardew has warned Arsenal over Jonny Evans 0
Alan Pardew has warned Arsenal over any potential move for Jonny Evans, with Arsene Wenger's Premier League side reportedly keen on signing the veteran centre-half to strengthen their defence.
Arsenal were forced to part with their best player this week as Alexis Sanchez finally left the club. The Chilean had been tipped to move to Manchester City to reunite with Pep Guardiola, but this move did not happen, with the player instead moving to Manchester United.

A complaint was made to the ASA about a property listed in a brochure for a housing development, with the suggestion that it was misleading. This was because the complainant understood that the estate entrance, and therefore the correct road name, was not as stated in the brochure.
Bellway Homes explained to the ASA that the brochure had been produced before construction work began, at which point the original entrance to the site was as listed in the brochure.
It accepted that now the development was underway the site entrance had moved, and confirmed that the correct address had been applied to all other marketing products.
The builder also promised to ensure that when future brochures were printed the new address will be used.
As a result the ASA considered the matter resolved and closed the case informally.

Crackers in Soup is a virtual business providing a wealth of knowledge and expertise to assist you in your business.
My virtual business allows you to experience the best "F" word known to the English language: FREEDOM! Freedom to work on the things you need to complete your business. Freedom to know that the tasks you don't have time for are in experienced hands. Freedom to exhale!
As soon as you take a chance in my business services and yourself! Release control and contact me to assist you in all of your virtual business needs!
Crackers in Soup's mission is to not only assist you in your daily needs but to make you and your podcast thrive. Your success is my success. Our collaboration will allow you to work on elements of your podcast that you enjoy while I work on elements of your business that I enjoy.
Just think of me as your virtual co-worker!
My name is Bethany (Sylvester) Hawkins and I cooked up the idea of Crackers in Soup. In deriving the name of my Virtual Assistant business, I thought of my daughter and her love of soup...and crackers.
Soup brings warmth to your soul and body; crackers give the extra something that is needed to make your mouth smile. Everyone needs some crackers in their soup!
I bring over 18 years of experience in administrative business. I have served as a paralegal, Assistant Office Administrator, and Office Administrator. I have learned databases, created templates, supervised a staff of 12 while assisting an office of 40. I have conducted research, created trial notebooks, worked on Outlook 365, Office Word, Excel. I am also a double P: People Person! These are just a few of my talents.
Not only have I dedicated 18 years to administrative work but those years have been in one of the hardest fields: Criminal Justice.
I do not waiver in my dedication to my employers and my work product. During this time period, I have only worked for TWO employers: I was with one for 8 years and another for an accumulation of 10. That alone speaks to my strong work ethic.
My education includes a Certification in Paralegal Studies, a Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice and a Certificate of Completion of the 30 days or less to Virtual Assistant Success.
What is a Virtual Assistant ?
*In my case, a virtual assistant is an independent contractor who works remotely to help you complete daily/monthly/annual tasks for your business. The specialization in specific fields ensures you are getting the most bang for your buck!
Why hire a Virtual Assistant?
* They are the best of both worlds: You get your services completed by a knowledgeable, experienced assistant while never being responsible for providing full-time employee benefits such as health care, dental, retirement funds, etc.
*In addition, you get to work on the exciting things that you LOVE about your business. I do the activities that need to get done. Who doesn't want to have a virtual co-worker getting it all done behind the scenes???
Where is your resume?
*This is a virtual business. Would you ask someone building your house to look at a resume? No! The proof would be in showcasing the other homes that were built. Set up a consultation and I would be happy to speak with you about my experience!

Bethany is absolutely incredible! Aside from being a highly skilled virtual assistant and possessing an impeccable work ethic, she takes a sincere interest in your brand and nurtures it as though it were her own. Bethany educates her clients on best practices and is committed to your success! As a result of her creating effective show notes for my podcast and for providing strategic social engagement, Sistahs Connect is growing exponentially and is getting more traction. She is an absolute dream to work with and for me, could never be replaced. Bethany has become an extension of my brand!
I have know Bethany for many years. While she was working in the Rockingham County Attorney's Office I was a Deputy Sheriff with the Rockingham County Sheriff's Office. We both enjoyed many years serving the citizens of Rockingham County, and made our transitions almost simultaneously. Bethany went to self employment as a business virtual assistant and I retired to pursue part time employment. After serving the citizens of Rockingham County for 30 years I was understandably nervous about applying for a new job. I hadn't even thought about a resume since 1989. The first person I reached out to for support and guidance was Bethany. I trust her and respect her professional ability. Bethany assured me that I could do this. Her positive attitude and confidence calmed my concerns. Considering my limited information technology skills, my ability to assist Bethany with my resume was minimal. Bethany prepared a resume that was clear, comprehensive and accurate. I am sure that it will assist me tremendously with future employment.
Bethany is amazing. She is energetic and really loves her work. She is so organized and really knows how to connect with my clients. She has been a huge help with my time management and engagement on social media.
Over the past fifteen plus years, I have known and worked with Bethany in several professional settings. Even when we have not been working in the same office, I have had occasion to work with her. She is that rare and wonderful combination of a smart and competent professional that is a true team player, and also a positive and energetic force that has an infectious can-do attitude. Every project, no matter how daunting, runs more smoothly and feels easier to accomplish when Bethany is on your team. She is a true pleasure to collaborate with and a professional asset with a solid work ethic and wonderful disposition. I recommend her without hesitation.
Kirsten Wilson
Bethany and I have known each other for 18 years. We first worked together at the Rockingham County Attorney's Office and then as her direct supervisor at my own firm.
When I left public service for private practice, Bethany was the first administrative person I asked to join my team - I considered no one else for the position. She was responsible for everything from drafting motions, correspondence and memos to scheduling and conducting initial meetings with clients - we were a great team!
Bethany worked for me for 8 years in private practice. Her dedication to her job, responsibilities, clients and the office has not been replicated since she chose to return to the County Attorney's Office in 2013. Former and current clients often ask me about her and tell me that they miss stopping by the office to see her.
Bethany was a loyal and hard working member of our team and she still refers clients to me. Our relationship was and continues to be more than just employer and employee. My wife, children and I consider her to be family.
Donald Blaskza, Jr.
If I had to use one word to describe Bethany, I would say resourceful. We've worked together for several years, and whenever a question comes up that I haven't dealt with before, Bethany is my go to! If she doesn't have the answer, she will find it. Bethany is one of the most well-organized people that I know and have had the privilege to work with. She has the ability to remain calm under pressure, to solve problems, and to do it all with a smile! If you're looking for a virtual assistant, you can't find anyone better than Bethany!

Sales pitch from the web site to wet your appetite:
Ever wished you could pack an entire application into one single .EXE and take it with you anywhere without having to reinstall it every time?
At work, at home, on your laptop, at a friend...
Ever wanted to avoid having to reinstall all your applications every time you change, upgrade or reformat your computer?
Or, if you are an IT admin, have you ever dreamed you didn't have to test and deploy applications, and simply let your users launch them on demand whenever they needed to?
If so, application virtualization is probably what you need. Give Cameyo a try. It is (and will remain) free!
Here's the link:
TIP Time!
Cameyo apps can be portable.
You Could use a Windows XP virtual machine in VirtualBox, with the latest Cameyo installed on it.
Boot Virtual Machine.
Install any prerequisites you DON'T want captured in your Cameyo snapshot (i.e .Net Framework)
Take initial Cameyo snapshot.
Install application you want to virtualise.
Take final Cameyo snapshot. This then builds the virtualised package.
EDIT the package - there's an option to have all modifications stored under the EXE's directory.
Save package modifications.
Move package off virtual machine.
Reset VM.
Copy new Cameyo'd EXE to VM.
Test application.
Reset VM for next time.
Maybe the Cameyo program itself could be made portable?
Well nuff said NJOY!

The Course has changed little since its inception in 1908, and although not long, measuring 5553 yards it provides a stern but enjoyable test of golf.
As you would imagine being a mountain course the elements can influence more than just the club selection.

Bugs capable of everything from curing diseases to mopping up pollution are a step closer after scientists created an artificial lifeform in a lab.
The new bug, nicknamed Synthia 3.0, has fewer genes than any other bacterium, making it the most basic form of life.
Its creation in a Californian lab, by cowboy boot-wearing "showman scientist" Craig Venter, paves the way for bugs customised with genes that allow them to churn out clean biofuels, soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and pump out vaccines in industrial quantities.
Dr Venter said: "I think it's the start of a new era."
British scientists described the work as a "remarkable tour de force" and the journal Science said it was "honoured" to publish the research.
However, the technology brings with it a Pandora's box of ethical problems, from accusation of playing God to fears that it could be abused to create a biological weapon.
Six years ago Dr Venter, a 69-year-old Vietnam War veteran and billionaire entrepreneur, made headlines when he announced he had made artificial life for the first time.
To do this, he read the DNA of a bug that infects goats, Mycoplasma mycoides. He then recreated the DNA from fragments of genetic code made from four bottles of chemicals.
This DNA was put into a bacterium from a different species which read the DNA and sprang to life as an artificial bug he named Synthia 1.0.
Dr Venter, who was instrumental in the sequencing of the human genome, has now gone a step further, working out which of the 900-odd genes in Synthia 1.0 are essential for life. This led to the creation of Synthia 3.0, which boasts the 473 genes needed to grow and reproduce.
If life is defined as the ability to grow and breed without help, it makes the bug the simplest living thing.
In theory Synthia 3.0, or a similar skeleton bug, could be accessorised with genes that could revolutionise healthcare and fuel production.
Dr Venter, of the J Craig Venter Institute in California, said some of the possibilities are still beyond the realms of imagination. He also claims it may be possible to use the technique to recreate any living organism.
Asked in the past why he thought he could make a better job of designing life than God, he simply said: "Well, we have computers."
Dr Vitor Pinheiro, a synthetic biologist at University College London, said: "This work is a remarkable tour de force and delivers the simplest free-living organism we know."
Nobel Prize-winning biologist Sir Richard Roberts told the Forbes website: "The goal of completely defining what it means to be considered alive has taken a giant step forward."
Dr Sriram Kosuri, a biotechnologist at the University of California, Los Angeles, called the research "quite amazing" but said it was only "the beginning of a very long road".
The ETC group, a biotechnology watchdog, said the science is outpacing the legislation needed to regulate its use. Dangers include that genes from a designer bug will jump species, creating a plague against which humans have no defences.
Jim Thomas, the ETC's programme director, said: "It's hard to sort out the science from the sophistry in this announcement. Craig Venter is the Donald Trump of the biosciences and no one can ever be quite certain what he is up to."

Hey guys! My name is Ashley Pitts and I have been a part of the Absolute Fitness family for quite a few years now! I began my journey with Absolute Fitness after a Zumba Fitness Party In Pink fundraiser we had, late October in 2010. I had been teaching classes at a local church, and through the grapevine, Dawn found me and the rest is history!
I have been into athletics and sports from a very young age. I began playing tee ball at the age of 5 and just continued to grow from there. I was a very active student athlete from West End High School, where I played, volleyball, basketball, softball and was also a cheerleader. I continued my knowledge of athletics as the volleyball manager, under Coach Angie Sanders and Coach Connie Clark, for 2 years at GSCC. During my time there, I fell even more in love with the fitness aspect of sports, as well as the coaching aspect. I began coaching club volleyball at the age of 19, for our local volleyball club, GVC. From there, I went on to coach 2 season at Gadsden City High School, and helped out with camps for other surrounding schools.
During all of this, I found the love of my life, at the time… Zumba Fitness! I was completed captivated by the music and rhythm of the beats, that I literally jumped in class one day, and registered to get my license the next! I have been teaching Zumba Fitness, in general, since May 2010, and the love has never faded. You can definitely say the rhythm runs through my veins. During this time at the gym, we were introducing a few new classes and class types, and one of those classes that quickly became a favorite, was RIPPED. I had always been in love with the concept of weightlifting, but this class really sparked the flame, that quickly took over. From RIPPED, I went on to test the waters of Crossfit, which grew my love for weightlifting even more and led me to obtaining my CF-L1 Certification. The concept of coaching Crossfit was that of coaching my teams and that grew my love for the sport. From Crossfit, I journeyed to Olympic Weightlifting, which has now become my passion and favorite form of competition. I am currently training with a coach from Atlanta, GA, to prepare for local meets, that will hopefully lead to a national platform!
During my time away from the gym, I am a full time hairstylist in downtown Gadsden. I love, love, love my job as a stylist, and I feel coaching, adults and children alike, has helped me enjoy my job even more, and has helped me in relation to my clients. Along with the salon, I am still coaching volleyball with GVC and loving every second of it. I have my high school coaches, especially Coach Clark, to thank for a lot of things in life, but most importantly, helping mold the person I am today, because without her guidance and constant push, I don't think I would have the same drive and work ethic, in my passions and day to day life.
In my off time, which is definitely much needed, I spend time taking short road trips to different festivals, whether it be food or music, with dear friends and occasionally my 2 fur babies, Moxie and Sunny. I am also a concert junkie and will, randomly and spontaneously, purchase tickets last minute and road trip for that, as well! If it has anything to do with food and/or music, you can be certain, I'll be there!
I love my Absolute Fitness family and I am looking forward to meeting all of our new members and continuing my years with the returning ones. I can't wait to see what life has in store for myself, and Absolute Fitness, and I would love to grow along with you! I hope to see you guys in a class soon!

Dim Sum King Seafood Restaurant, Toronto CANADA
This is my last post for this place. Thank goodness because I'm tired of wasting posts on this horrible restaurant! 😦
Dim Sum King Seafood Restaurant, Toronto CANADA
This is my last post for this place. Thank goodness because I'm tired of wasting posts on this horrible restaurant! 😦
Baby gems with a creamy pesto dressing, topped with chives and toasted almonds. Small $8
Little Star Pizza, San Francisco CA
I'm not a big salad guy (I like to eat meat), but this goddess salad was delicious. The simple combination of the pesto dressing and toasted almonds on top of the large, crisp gem lettuce was perfect. And the small order was perfect for two people. Yum!
Wyder's pear cider. $5
Conk/polypore fungus (Ganoderma?), Bon Tempe Lake.
Pho bo. Sliced beef with flat rice noodles, onions, and chives. Served with basil, greens, limes, and habanero peppers. Regular 65,000 VND
Pho 2000, Ho Chi Minh City VIETNAM
I think I like beef pho better than chicken pho. The broth has a lot more flavor and I think it's more fun to eat with chopsticks, especially if you have to try and separate the thin slices of beef. This soup was very tasty and such a great value!
Communist flower bed, Cong Vien 23 Thang 9.
Pho ga. Sliced chicken breast with flat rice noodles, onions, and chives. Served with basil, greens, limes, and habanero peppers. Regular 65,000 VND
Pho 2000, Ho Chi Minh City VIETNAM
This was the first real meal we had in Vietnam and it was pretty good. The broth was delicious and it was SUPER cheap! The place was packed with tourists and locals alike. This is when I realized that we would be served lots of random greens that we wouldn't recognize, and also that restaurants charge for wet naps. 🙂
Basil, leaf stalks that I've never seen before, limes, and habanero peppers.
Ben Thanh Night Market. Watch out for the crazy scooters zipping by while the market is setting up!
Bacon, pickled jalapeno and chive. $13
Park Tavern, San Francisco CA
Mmm, these were amazing! I hated deviled eggs as a kid, but I have really come to appreciate them as an adult. Especially the fancy varieties that other people make, hehe. These were jam packed with flavor and everything worked spectacularly together.
7×7 Magazine's The Big Eat San Francisco: 100 Things to Eat + Drink Before You Die – 2012, 2013
Fried Chinese pancake filled with green chives, glass noodles, and egg. $5.95
Dumpling Empire, South San Francisco CA
I liked the flavor of these pancakes, but the outsides were on the greasy side. I love the sharpness of the Chinese chives though. They also give you two whole pancakes so it's a good value.
Beautiful thread agave (Agave filifera, Asparagaceae), West Field Road.
A Taste of Yauatcha menu £28.88 for 2 people
Yauatcha, London ENGLAND
These were more your typical dim sum dumpling items so this steam tray was more familiar than the others (and maybe a little more boring). The two kinds of dumplings were actually really good though. The har gow is a tried and true standard. I'm not completely sure what all was in the fen guo dumpling, but I would guess it was a mixture of pork, shrimp, garlic chives, mushrooms and peanuts.
Golden aster martini: Buffalo Trace bourbon, Antica forumula sweet vermouth, Aperol, saffron, lemon and chilli syrup. £9.80
Aged Vesper martini: Tanqueray No. Ten gin, Belvedere vodka and Lillet Blanc vermouth. £9.90
These cocktails were nicely made and delicious!
Oxford Circus with cute London cabs.
