Financing your collections?
Posted 28 January 2020 - 03:04 PM
The hobby we enjoy can become very expensive & addictive if not kept under control I've found.
For the people with stacks of surplus cash this does not apply lol.
But for us average Joe's i'm interested to know what strategies you guys have when it comes to financing your growing collections.
Trading duplicates/unwanted pieces is probably the most economical option I would imagine...
Do you have a set budget each week/month? Do you pay into a separate float regularly to spend on your collection?

I don't really save or anything like that. If I come across something I want, I check how much money I have. If it's a decent price and I can afford it, then I buy. If I can't spare the cash, then I don't.

Yeah that seems to be the straightford method but determing whether you can afford or have the spare cash can be a grey area (at least for me lol)
Definitely takes some discipline to say 'no I cant afford' especially when its a great deal that you 'cant miss out on'.
I've heard that saying a few times!

Healthy strategy, I think as your collections grow theres less & less that your after so sounds a good idea to go periods of time where you dont buy & top up the pay pal funds with regular small doses in the mean time. Like it mate.
I guess the greater number of collections you have going on the more things you will see catch your eye.

Your sure not the only one, most of us are probably all guilty of that from time to time.

Thing is when I got into collecting LRG a few years ago,(pretty much when I joined this site) I spent a lot of money on the hobby. I bought so much that I'm in an alright place in what I have. I haven't bought anything new in a while. Although I'm also into playing video games. I buy games left and right. Most of the time it's game that have out for a while. So I get them cheaper than new games.
There are some figures I still want though. I'd ideally like to have a favorite sculpt of different LRG lines. Laser Beast would be the most expensive. I don't know if I'll ever justify spending a hundred+ on a figure from a line that I'm not completely into. But from what I understand, a hundred+ is what some are legit worth.(in this case I want Strong Hurricane Owl) I wouldn't even mind that Skull Grotess Dragon figure. But man that's sooo much more.
This hobby is all about patience. There has been figures I'v over paid for so I can have them. This normally goes for figures that don't show up often. Thankfully this place exist and the collectors that have been around longer can chime in with their thoughts and advice for what's worth what.

I have a rental property with coin-operated laundry. I use the quarters from those machines to supply my Holy Grail fund - big purchases once or twice per year.
One time I used it to buy a vintage Ms. Pac-Man machine. I was quite pleased with how appropriate that was.
Thank you

I scalp mostly and sell off duplicates etc. I try and pay for most of my collection by selling off stuff I already have and/or buying items in lots and selling off the excess. I try not to come too much out of pocket, but inevitable do.
Also - I'm a HUGE fan of squeezIng an extra nickel out of everything I buy. I take full advantage of Ebay's EBAY BUCKS program. I will hold off on buying items until there's a sale or promotion w/ Ebay making sure that I get an extra 5-10% kickback when I can.
I will also take full advantage of kickbacks and promotions that various credit cards offer, and try and maximize cash back options when appropriate while collecting.
I've been using a lot of Ebates lately. They have an affiliate program where you get cash back on everything from Ebay, Amazon, Groupon... pretty much anywhere I buy stuff, I click through their site first so that I get cash back.
SPEAKING OF WHICH... here's my code if anyone wants to sign up: https://www.rakuten....I200?eeid=28187
(complete transparency, I get a $25 bonus if you sign up, and you get a free $10 bonus)
But yeah - basically I go to great lengths to stretch my dollars. And I try and flip what I can to justify keeping what I buy.

That being said I still spend a bunch on toys but if it's something real expensive I'll often sell a few things to make it more reasonable.
I never let it drag down any real life finances though and I'm still on track to be a first time home owner in about a year.

Brilliant strategy there BadLarry with the laundry thing. Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best.
Appreciate the link plasticfiend, I've been oblivious to the things you mention but I can see how you have been capitalising so fare play to you.
It always feels better getting something for a lower price, I think we can all agree on that.
Fisheye I hear you man, 'patience Daniel Son'. Good luck in your quest.

Sold stuff from my childhood that I wasn't interested in anymore. Bought multiple copies of new stuff, especially on Kickstarter, sat on it, kept a copy or two, and sold the rest for profit. Has worked for me so far.

That's a good shout Sydot with the Thrift/Flea market scene, just takes some confidence that you'll find something I guess? It's so easy to give up before you've even started with those.
Good luck to you, sounds like you've got your priorities right whilst still enjoying the collecting hobby.
I frequently go home empty handed from thrifts and fleas. And I post a lot of what I find on insagram and people will comment about how i'm 'always finding great stuff' But I'm posting the one success i have for every 4 or 5 that I get almost nothing. But that's social media, right? Making everything look better than it really is, right?

Lol I see your posts and I'm always wondering why I only find dirty stuffed animals and half complete puzzles, but it sounds like you're hitting those things up a lot more frequently than it looks on instagram. I see you're in Philly, if you haven't you should check out Toy & Comic Heaven. I grabbed some KO muscle there back before Christmas when I was visiting family in the area but I could have spent hours there digging through their stuff.

I guess it's all about enjoying the hobby but not letting it get in the way of 'real life' finances, which can be a fine line from my own experience.
It can be done & I hope to achieve this balance myself going forward :-)

I actually live like 15 min from there. My thing says philly because its an easy reference point but I actually live in north wales.
That place frustrates me. Most of the stuff is way overpriced and the guy who is always working doesn't know any prices and says to come back when the boss is in or some shit. Or he will call the boss to ask and wont get an answer. So i'll go in there and find one or two cool things and not be able to buy them. Plus they have very limited toy displays with mountains of stuff in bins on the side that you can't look through.
But yeah, for fleas I get there at like 7 when people are still setting up and go almost every weekend when its nice, and I hit a thrift by me like 3 days a week.

Fair enough. I was there and my youngest was throwing a tantrum so I didn't get to look through very much. We don't get out there very often but my wife is from that area. You every make it to the q mart in Quakertown? It's years since we've been there but at the time it was much better than anything we have here in south central pa.

Nigel Farage quits Ukip over anti-Muslim policies
The now former president of the party took Ukip to 3rd place by number of votes in the 2015 election and significantly shaped the ground for the Brexit referendum.
He was dismayed by Batten's policies and his decision to appoint the far-right campaigner Tommy Robinson as an adviser.
He also condemned Batten's decision to throw Ukip's support behind an anti-Brexit demonstration in London on December 2 organized by Robinson and his associates, saying it was likely to "inspire violence and thuggish behaviour".
Farage, who tried and failed seven times to become a Ukip MP and is still an MEP for the party, has repeatedly criticized Batten's focus on praising anti-Muslim policies and warned at the weekend that he might quit.
While members made it clear that they reject Robinson's proposed Ukip membership – as the founder of the far-right English Defence League, he's barred under current rules – a vote of no confidence in Batten was defeated.
Farage's announcement is likely to prompt a further wave of departures from Ukip, which has lost three MEPs in recent weeks over its new direction. Many of those who opposed Batten's views had hoped that the former leader, who quit after the Brexit referendum, could return if Batten was ousted.

Daughters Of Dignity women's retreat! each ticket is $100 and is a tax deductible donation to
The Purpose Foundation 501(c)(3).
Welcome to the Daughter's Of Dignity page!
This is our Women's Ministry Outreach!
If you're looking for a monthly gathering of women, who are like-hearted and minded, look no further! We meet 1 time per month in Riverside, CA, for a 1 hour Bible Study, led by Diana Wehbe herself.
For more information, please email Jazmin Jones: email@example.com
This is the Daughters Of Dignity first official Lenten CHALLENGE!
For the 40 days of Lent, we are going to challenge ourselves to be SCRIPTURALLY focused on growth. Which means, if you're fasting, or giving up anything else, that's GREAT! Because, this challenge will work with you, helping you stay focused on God rather than your hunger, or temptations.
How it works:
*Sign up for our email list below.
* Follow us on IG! @DaughtersOfDignity
( we will be posting helpful tools there)
* Everyday for 40 days (Monday-Saturday only) you will read 3 chapters in the book of Psalms.
(most are pretty short, and you can easily get through them!)
* On friday's you will receive an encouraging email from our team reflecting on the Scripture passages for that day!
* We begin on Wednesday February 14,2018.
* We will start with Psalm Chapter 1-3.
We look forward to walking with you during this Lenten journey!
Lent is a time to truly spend time with Christ, in the desert, a place of silence, focus, and a "giving up" of things or situations that keep us from hearing His voice. Remember, after Jesus finished His 40 days/nights in the desert, He was sent out to begin His public Ministry... which means, by the end of our 40 days(if we do it right) we should be transformed by our time with Him that we are READY to serve others.

Application automation always adds value to any Agile project. Most folks, including me, automate web applications using Selenium-like tools or Appium for mobile apps automation.
In a recent project, we worked with a Selenium and Java built framework. One of the core challenges while selecting an automation tool that can integrate with this framework was working with a Windows application. While there are several tools in the market such as UFT/QTP that can automate Windows application, they are cost-prohibitive. This has primarily been the reason they are not widely used.
In this post, we show how to automate Windows applications using WinAppDriver, a free tool provided by Microsoft.
Current open-source and freeware test automation frameworks
A few noteworthy freeware do exist, however, each tool has its own limitation.
Sikuli – Sikuli can automate anything that is displayed on the screen. It identifies screen objects using image recognition and controls GUI (Graphical User Interface) components. Since it is based on image comparison, the slightest difference between two machines (such as screen resolutions, operating system upgrades , etc.) will break the automation code. This makes Sikuli-based systems unsustainable and unmaintainable.
AutoIt – Auto-It is a BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating Windows GUI elements and general scripting. However, it uses a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement and window/control manipulation in order to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages (e.g. VBScript and SendKeys). The lack of common scripting languages gives AutoIt a steep learning curve.
Winium – Winium is a Selenium-based tool for testing and automating desktop applications on a Windows desktop. It uses selenium-based libraries however the community has made only two releases and there is no active work or maintenance since then.
WinAppDriver – WinAppDriver uses selenium-like libraries and is actively supported by the community and is developed by the makers of Windows OS – Microsoft. Windows Application Driver supports Selenium-like UI test automation for Windows applications. The service supports automated testing of Universal Windows Platform (UWP), Windows Forms (WinForms), Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), and Classic Windows (Win32) apps on the Windows 10 operating system. Winappdriver complies with the JSON Wire Protocol and some application management functionalities defined by Appium. This service provides better support for using Appium to test Windows Applications.
Why is WinAppDriver preferred over other tools?
- It uses the WebDriver protocol
- WinAppDriver is free and developed by Microsoft
- Easily integrates with existing framework
- It can run as a standalone app and as a plugin for Appium
Installing and Running Windows Application Driver
WinAppDriver runs on a Windows 10 PC and needs any Appium test runner (Samples and Tests in this repository use Microsoft Visual Studio as the test runner)
- Download Windows Application Driver installer from https://github.com/Microsoft/WinAppDriver/releases
- Run the installer on a Windows 10 machine where your application under test exists and will be tested
- Enable Developer Mode in Windows settings
To run the application, simply start WinAppDriver.exe from its installation directory (E.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Application Driver)
Windows Application Driver will then be running on the test machine listening to requests on the default IP address and port (127.0.0.1:4723). You can now run any Tests or Samples. WinAppDriver.exe can be configured to listen to a different IP address and port as follows:
WinAppDriver.exe 4727 WinAppDriver.exe 10.0.0.10 4725 WinAppDriver.exe 10.0.0.10 4723/wd/hub
Note: You must run WinAppDriver.exe as an administrator to listen to a different IP address and port.
Inspect a windows UI element
To start inspecting a windows UI element, we need the Windows kit which can be downloaded from here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk
The latest version of Microsoft's Visual Studio includes the Windows SDK by default along with the Inspect tool to inspect the application under test. This tool shows every UI element/node which can be queried using the Windows Application Driver.
The inspect.exe tool can be found under the Windows SDK folder which is typically
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\10.0.17763.0\x64
In this example, I am inspecting the elements of the Calculator application.
Writing the Automation
You can use several programming languages with WinAppDriver to code the automation. In this example, I am using Java with TestNG. Listed below is the code to launch the session for the Calculator application:
@Setup public void TestInit() { DesiredCapabilities appCapabilities = new DesiredCapabilities(); appCapabilities.setCapability ("app", "Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App "); appCapabilities.setCapability ("deviceName", "WindowsPC"); WindowsDriver driver = new WindowsDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/") ,appCapabilities); driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(100, TimeUnit.SECONDS); }
Appium supports several locators such as accessibility ID, class name, ID, name, tag name , and xpath.
Most widely used attributes are ID, name, xpath and accessibility ID. The preferred way to automate the application is by using the accessibility ID. Test cases using accessibility ID are faster as when compared with ones using name and xpath. Obtaining certain accessibility IDs needs developer attention.
WinAppDriver is a great open-source tool from the makers of the Windows OS. With support for different scripting languages and easy integration with Selenium and Appium, WinAppDriver has become the go-to choice for test automation of Windows applications.
Get WinAppDriver from Github. More detailed documentation is available on the Wiki.

Volkswagen I.D. Debuts as Concept in Paris, Headed to Market in 2020
Finally, a concept car that will actually make it to production
Volkswagen has revealed a concept electric car that it hopes will hit the market by the end of the decade. The Volkswagen I.D. makes its first appearance at the Paris Motor Show this week, showing off a new electric drive system and autonomous features.
Although VW hasn't yet released all the details, we do know the compact car offers an electric motor that produces around 168 hp. The automaker says the I.D. has a range between 400 and 600 kilometers (249-373 miles) and will launch parallel to a new Golf in 2020.
The I.D. will be the first product to come out of Volkswagen's new commitment toward electric vehicles. As we previously reported, VW plans to launch more than 30 battery electric cars by 2025. The I.D. is based on the flexible new MEB toolkit, which should also be able to accommodate larger vehicles the size of the BUDD-e concept van that debuted earlier this year as a preview to the automaker's EV efforts.
After the I.D. comes to market, VW says it will add a fully automated driving mode to the vehicle. In this mode, which arrives in 2025, the steering wheel retracts into the dashboard providing more room inside the already spacious cabin. The I.D. will also be capable of receiving packages if its owner isn't home, a new feature that reminds us a bit of the in-car delivery service we've seen from Volvo.
At the Paris show, VW is also announcing a new urban mobility division that's set to become the 13th brand of the VW Group. The division hasn't been named yet, but it's a sure sign that VW is thinking of the future of driving.
Stay tuned for more information on the Volkswagen I.D. as the Paris Motor Show unfolds.

Why attend?
Exhibitors who attend Screening Days know the difference it makes.
That's why staff and volunteers of cinemas, mixed arts venues, film festivals, and film societies attend again and again. But if you haven't come before, here's five reasons Screening Days could be invaluable for you…
- Screening Days make your programming decisions easier: watching our amazing selection of the upcoming films lets you get clear on whether a film is right for your venue and how to make it work best in your programme.
- Screening Days are efficient: finding time to watch films in the busy and divided schedule of a film programmer is hard. Screening Days lets you cover a lot of ground with amazing access.
- Screening Days simplify marketing: knowing what audience you're trying to target becomes much easier once you know the film directly and who in your community would want to come and see it.
- Screening Days gives you access to key industry players: we often have representatives from the BFI, Cinema for All, Film Audience Network and Filmbankmedia, as well as many major distributors in attendance. Screening Days is your chance to hear about funding, technology and opportunities that can mean just as much as what you put on the screen itself.
- Screening Days is a forum to share knowledge: gathering together this number of exhibitors in one place means you can keep up with developments from peers and learn from what is working for them.
Being able to see a film makes a huge difference when it comes to programming and for programmers, who work in the regions and who can never get to the regular distributor press screenings in London, ICO Screening Days are the most invaluable connection with upcoming releases.
Our events code of conduct
- We want our events to be fun, inclusive spaces for film professionals. We expect people attending and working at the event to maintain our code of conduct so that it can stay fun and inclusive. Harassment and bullying have no place at ICO events. Be mindful of others' experience and think before you speak or act, so that everyone can have a pleasurable and productive experience.
- Examples of inappropriate behaviour that contravenes our code of conduct includes offensive verbal comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, religion, sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, following, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, aggressive behaviour, inappropriate physical contact and unwelcome sexual attention.
- If you feel uncomfortable, or someone behaves inappropriately towards you, or you witness something inappropriate, please report it to a member of ICO staff or email email@example.com. Your complaint will be treated with confidence and discretion. We are happy to help you and can help report inappropriate behaviour to the authorities, where necessary or address the problem ourselves where more appropriate. We reserve the right to refuse entry to anyone who does not comply with our code of conduct. This code of conduct applies both in person and online.
- If you would like to speak to an independent organisation about an issue, the Film and TV Charity have a free and confidential helpline available on 0800 054 00 00. It operates seven days a week, 24 hours a day.
How do I register on the day?
Registration will be held from 8.30am each morning, at which you will be issued with a badge for the day(s) you are attending. This will be your entry pass into all screenings. The registration area will be staffed by the ICO throughout the event. We'll be on hand to offer advice on topics including programming, distribution, audience development and more.
Where are the screenings held?
Screenings will be held in the Tyneside Cinema's Classic, Electra and Roxy screens.
Will there be any other activities in addition to the screenings?
Yes! There will be a drinks reception on Saturday evening for delegates to meet and network with fellow colleagues and catch up on the all-important films of the day.
How accessible is the Tyneside?
The Tyneside Cinema is committed to making every effort to maximise access for disabled people. There are lifts to all floors, power assisted doors and wheelchair spaces in all screens and accessible toilets on floors 2 & 3. For more details on accessibility at Tyneside, click here.
How do you select films for Screening Days?
We work closely with distributors to select independent, world and art house cinema that will be released in the following quarter. We focus on titles that are unlikely to have a vast marketing budget so need the keen curatorial eye and advance notice that a viewing at Screening Days can provide for your programme. We also occasionally include higher profile titles, particularly in the lead-up to awards season, which we believe delegates will be keen to see in order to assess suitability for their programmes. Our goal is to provide you with the opportunity to see the widest range of films so you're able to broaden programmes in your venues, and we hope the Screening Days programme reflects that.
Why can't you release the schedule earlier?
We always try to finalise the schedule as soon as possible so you can plan ahead. Unfortunately, we are limited in how far in advance we can do so. Because distributors offering us their films often haven't determined their schedule in advance, or are waiting on delivery of the materials, we often receive final confirmations quite close to the event. Then, in order to evenly space the films across the different screens, we need to carefully schedule the films, which takes time.
Why aren't there more or longer breaks?
We try to give you as many breaks as possible between films and usually have morning, lunch and afternoon breaks, but are restricted by the availability of the screens and the length of the films. Most cinemas can't take out their evening public screenings due to conditions set by distributors, and so they don't disappoint their local (paying) audience. This means we can only screen films between 9am – 5.30pm. We try to keep in mind that the main purpose of the event is for you to be able to see as many films as possible.
Why can only organisers, marketers and programmers attend?
The purpose of Screening Days is to encourage strong audiences for a more diverse selection of films. Programmers, organisers (e.g. the most senior person in a community screen, members of the selection committee of a film society) and marketers are the people in a best position to both select films and advocate for these films in their venues. We are often oversubscribed, so this is the fairest way to ensure that key staff get the opportunity to attend.
Why can only four members of my organisation attend?
Our Screening Days events have been selling out for the past few years and starting at this event we are now limiting the number of passes per any one organisation to four. This is to ensure that the largest possible number of organisations can attend Screening Days to maximise their benefit across the film exhibition sector.
As we only screen three films at any one time, you will still be able to see all of the titles shown.
Attendees must also be engaged in one of the following roles within their organisation: programming, marketing, education, audience development, or on the selection committee of a film society/club.
How frequent do my screenings need to be for me to attend?
Our funders for Screening Days, in addition to the distributors that lend us their films, now stipulate that exhibitors must hold 12 or more screenings per year to attend (and must have done so in the year to date).
Is there any support available for me to attend?
The Film Hubs may be able to offer support in the form of bursaries towards fees, travel and accommodation for their members to attend Screening Days. For further information and/or links to contact your local Hub to enquire, see below:
- Film Hub Midlands https://filmhubmidlands.org/show/training/bursaries/

Why haven't I received an additional email approving my passes?
As mentioned during online registration, our registration process has changed. In the past, we requested payment after approving your registration, and you would receive a separate email to confirm your passes were approved.
Now, we take payment from your account immediately when you book your passes and you will only receive one automatic booking confirmation email at this point. If you don't receive this email, please check your junk/spam folder.
If there is any problem with your eligibility we'll contact you within five working days to refund your fees, but otherwise you may assume your registration was successful.
If you have any queries or issues while booking your pass, email email@example.com.
When will you be hosting the next Screening Days and where?

- Archive Screening Day 2018
Thursday 29 November 2018 at BFI Southbank, London
- Spring Screening Days 2019

Sign up to our mailing list to stay up to date.
Can I tweet or share reviews or comments on the films in public?
No. While we appreciate your enthusiasm (or otherwise) for films you see at Screening Days, the terms that we receive the films under completely prohibit any social media or film forum discussion of films in the Screening Days programme, however positive it is! Distributors monitor social media channels for discussion of the films. Please do feel free to discuss the films in person with other delegates, and if you'd like to talk about the event in general on social media you can find us at @ICOtweets #ScreeningDays.
Terms and conditions

Matthew Charles got out of prison in 2016 after the Obama administration changed sentencing guidelines for crack-related crimes. He'd spent almost half his life behind bars. But prosecutors appealed his sentence reduction, and won. Now he has to go back to serve another decade. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Since his release in 2016, Charles has held a steady job. He volunteers every Saturday, has reconnected with his family, and started a serious relationship. He is part of a community in Nashville that does not want him to be sent back to prison. Sign the petition in bio asking President Trump to commute his sentence. #MatthewCharles
When the Obama Administration changed the guidelines for sentencing drug offenders for crack cocaine, it opened up a number of cases to be reduced, allowing some offenders to appeal their cases and be released early. Matthew Charles, a resident of Nashville, Tennessee had originally served 21 years of a 35-year sentence for selling crack cocaine to an undercover informant in 1996. He was later released, allowed to restart his life and become a model citizen.
Now he has to go back to prison after the US Attorney's office appealed the ruling, calling him a "career offender."
"The whole thing pisses me off to be honest," Charles' friend John Hairston told Nashville Public Radio. "But it underscores how big a need there is for some reform in the justice system. I don't care what they say."
Since his release, Charles studied to get a GED and became a law clerk who helped other inmates understand their cases long after the public defender system had discarded them. Since his release he has held a job, volunteered in the community, build relationships with his family and girlfriend. Even while he was in prison, he never had a disciplinary infraction, not one. He even organized bible study courses and helped inmates who were illiterate with their own cases to help them from feeling embarrassed or ridiculed.
What a shame.

Van der Vlist used their own port facility in Moerdijk to help a local company move four 179 ton heat exchangers.
The 28 metre long pieces were collected one by one from the nearby factory, and taken to quay, where they were unloaded onto a barge for shipment, the journey was only a short one, but the 4 axle truck and modular 15 axle trailer had to be guided carefully around the local roads, where there are no restrictions.
The two barges were each loaded with two heat exchangers by mobile cranes with 500 and 700 ton capacities, on Van der Vlist's quay. The movement and handling was safely and smoothly completed.
Their customer, a world leader in manufacturing high-end process equipment, chose to produce the pieces at their Moerdijk facility due to the excellent transport links available there. Their core expertise is building state-of-the-art heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and reactors in the high temperature, high pressure, and high corrosion resistance area.

I am Sociologist/Anthropologist of Religion and Morality. My forthcoming book is Authenticity and Religion in the Pluralistic Age: A Simmelian Study of Christian Evangelicals and New Monastics. It proposes a theory of authenticity and morality to better understand the current shifts in Christian consciousness in pluralistic societies, such as the UK, US, and Canada. I have also been a Research Fellow at Woodbrooke Quaker Study Centre. I have previously worked at St Mary's University (Twickenham) and Cardiff University. My research interests in sociology and anthropology of Christianity and of morality. Specifically, I research authenticity, tradition and neo-traditionalism, hospitality, and moral emotions.
I have lectured in anthropology of religion and in sociology at Cardiff University for four years. That included convening a module on Religion and Film. I have been Managing Editor for the journal Secularism & Nonreligion and Editor for the Sociology of Religion Section of the open access journal Open Theology (De Gruyter). I've lectured and led seminars across disciplines on various subjects, including globalisation, migration, modernity, national identity at Cardiff University and carried out some research on cohousing and intentional communities.
I was awarded a PhD with no corrections in sociology of religion from Cardiff University. The thesis put forward a concept of authenticity to better understand the individual religious identity of Christian evangelicals in pluralistic times. The theory draws on Georg Simmel and is illustrated by ethnographic research carried out in a Christian evangelical church. It is available online here.
I'm interested in issues of migration and EU citizenship. I'm collating the research I come across on migration and citizenship at my other blog Migration & Citizenship Research. I also write and commission articles as Associate Editor of the European page of openDemocracy.
I'm an experienced policy and public affairs' professional. I have lobbied successfully for policy changes. I was in politics for ten years and was an elected councillor for two terms in Cardiff.

When you might be planning to your own next outdoor tents or hiking trip, typically you travel going the checklist. Making sure you have your camping tent, backpack, pocketknife, food and even more items betting on the regarding trip happen to be going in. The one thing some people don't do before their trip is re-familiarizing themselves with simple survival tips. A lot of these tips could function as a difference between life and death.
Another surefire way to lower your enjoyment of nature is to obtain a yourself lost, screaming 'help' at helpful tips of your lungs. (This happened to this writer in Sequoia National Park when he was 7 years old and the know-it-all Cub Scout). In most of these articles, I've strongly recommended taking a trail map with buyers. In these events of the internet, it's easy to download maps to an iphone or other device for many people trails. Locally, Mt. Diablo and Mt. Tamalpais State Parks have downloadable brochures and other publications online. If relying on technology (smart phones and GPS devices for example), the key is to convinced the battery doesn't die while you're out inside of the wilds. It may be archaic, but a good topo map and compass - and knowing easy methods to use them - are invaluable tools and qualities.
Near city of Hot Springs in Madison County, is a pleasant short river hike, alongside one in the tributaries in the French Broad River. The mountain stream runs strong, but it is not a proper area for swimming, while many "creek dipping" is fun in hot temps hiking tips . The trail is flat, a rarity in Western . This is an ideal short trail that is not far from civilization and well traveled by people and pooches.
Watching the movie "A Perfect Getaway" forced me to be feel like I the part of it. The scenes were breathtakingly beautiful, produced by a total movie suspense and tony horton created unpredictable. I gave it a two-thumbs up review. However, after learning that the film was not actually shot in Kalalau Trail - a trail that leads to Na Pali Coast on foot, Experienced in awe.
Do not purchase discounted hiking gear. You see the advertisements blaring to you to buy this or that at 75% below. Do not attempt. The purpose for outdoor stuff this tip typically you end up being the buying bootleg goods which against legislation first involving most. Secondly the products may be factory rejects. The only time we would advise to be able to buy hiking gear to the discount effectively if simple . outdoor gear store is having a sale on regular priced merchandize.
Compass and GPS - A compass is always nice to have, but it only works if realize there are only how make use of it. A compass fantastic at giving you the right direction in order to going, along with the direction basic ingredients to supply.
Before going out on your hike to explore the nature around you, be certain to have scanned your setting. Be aware of any mountains, hills, or additional major landmarks around anyone with a camping tent site. When beginning your hike these types of stay around a valley, river or mountainside if it feels comfortable. Just by doing this this will assist keep you going within the same support. The next step seems simple enough, keep tabs on time. Be certain that you're aware often when you exit your camping site. By doing this you will know what rate an individual hiking at and then by period you reach your destination you understand exactly how far you are from the camp site. For those who have a GPS make sure it is placed in good condition and you might be very experienced all its settings.
It's not the miles or quantity of vertical feet you climb, but the enjoyment you glean with the experience. This is especially valid for freshmen. Granted, there is a great experience of satisfaction to be enjoyed by reaching the the surface of Half Dome, Mt. Whitney, the end of the John Muir Trail. It really is important to slow things down, to allow the senses to absorb the surroundings: to see the wildflowers flowering and jagged peaks cutting into a deep blue sky, the sound of the wind in the trees, birdsong in the morning, and the smell of pine rising or the musty dankness of the garden soil after a summer weather.

It's not going to happen right away, but one of the upshots of the restructuring of the state's public universities may be a new name for the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh.
Championing the possibility of a name change is UW Oshkosh Chancellor Andrew Leavitt. He hasn't committed to the idea and seems well aware of the potential for community opposition. But he has been talking up the value he sees in a new designation in meetings with faculty and staff at UW Oshkosh.
"I would own that," Leavitt said in an interview.
Under a plan adopted by the UW System board of regents, UW Oshkosh is expected to absorb the two-year campuses of UW Fox Valley and UW Fond du Lac later this year.
"Given the sort of once-in-a-generation, or even more than once-in-a-generation, opportunity we have in front of us, given this restructuring, why not give this serious consideration?" Leavitt asked. "This would be the time to do it if we were going to do it."
He believes that a new name could strengthen a regional identity and set the stage for future success. "If you think about the future of the institution 20 to 25 years down the road–what we could be, what this region will be–what distinguishes us from almost every other region of the state is that we actually have people here."
Those people work in a wide variety of industries, providing economic diversity and opportunity, he said. "So the question is, 'Can we come up a name that captures that and really drives us forward?'"
He said the ideal new name would "completely differentiate us from everyone else."
Staff from the three campuses that are merging have been assigned to a work group to consider a new name, and they are looking at three possibilities, Leavitt said.
The first is simply to keep the current names and add the phrase "a campus of UW Oshkosh" for the two-year schools. For the time being, that is the designation that will be adopted, Leavitt said.
Another option would be to extend the UW Oshkosh brand to Fond du Lac and Fox Valley. "That is essentially what everyone else is doing," Leavitt said, referring to the other four-year campuses in the UW System that are merging with two-year campuses.
The third option would be an entirely new name, perhaps reflecting the way that the three schools that are joining under the Oshkosh umbrella are close to Lake Winnebago. In fact the website for the merging of the three institutions is titled "Lake Winnebago Region Restructuring." Its logo incorporates a map showing the three campuses and their proximity to that body of water.
If any change is coming, it's at least a year off. "We're not in any hurry," Leavitt said. "You can imagine the sensitivity of this."
The UW System has established conditions for a change of names in the restructuring. These include getting approval from the board of regents and keeping "UW" in any new name.
UW Oshkosh would also have to convene focus groups "to hear input from community stakeholders and prospective customers," according to UW System. A final stipulation is that the county executives in the jurisdictions where the branch campuses get financial support must sign off on a new name, the chancellor said. This requirement would mean coordination with Fond du Lac, Outagamie and Winnebago counties.
Leavitt said that he believes that he is the only chancellor in the state who is considering a major name change.
The initial reaction to the idea appears to be lukewarm at best. "I would be reluctant to see Oshkosh disappear" from the university's name, said Oshkosh Mayor Steve Cummings.
Thanks to existing businesses like Oshkosh Corp. and OshKosh B'gosh as well as legacy ones like Oshkosh Trunk, the name Oshkosh has a global reputation and "is known for high quality–the brand has a lot of positives associated with it."
The local university was once derided as UW Zero, Cummings said, but those "days are long behind it."
Cummings also pointed to the practical problems of changing names, including the expense of developing everything from new signage to new stationery. "Cost aside, you would have a lot of alumni who would not be terribly happy," the mayor said.
Jason White, the CEO of the Greater Oshkosh Economic Development Corp., said there could be benefits from a new name. "There continues to be a regional identify issue in the region as a whole," White said. At this point, he said he is not for or against a new name.
"At end of the day, what we need is a strong, vital, post-secondary, four-year institution in our community," White said. "Whatever name is associated with that, that is still able to achieve the highest level of academic excellence, I'm all for that. The name means less to me when you consider that perspective."
The student newspaper on the UWO campus, The Advance-Titan, recently published a critique of a possible change. "While UW Oshkosh has had a long history and has not always had the name it currently does, I believe there is enough current confusion with the restructuring that does not call for more confusion with a name change," wrote opinion columnist Renae Karmar. "The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh name needs to stay."

While I may be unsure of myself in being capable of keeping things interesting I am still willing to mess around with anime podcasting since there could possibly be people that enjoy listening more than actually reading.
Another thing that made me further decide in continuing to do this is that come the Summer 2015 Anime Season there are going to be tons of anime that I have previously previewed that are going to premiere. Anime series that I would rather just talk about through audio rather than write about. It would be a much easier process. While there are limitations to this since only English speakers can be capable of listening that shouldn't be such a problem because still planning on blogging a few select top anime series, anyway. These anime are the series I believe are the most worthy of attention and because they contain great appeal.
The Summer 2015 Anime Season
With that I apologize to all readers from countries all over in non-English speaking countries. If only audio could translate into various languages like text so everyone could listen. I so wish that were possible but what can you do?
Thanks for reading and I hope some of you will become interested in TheHugeAnimeFanPODcast.

After last weeks momentous win Paulton were in high spirits as they took to the court on a drizzly Saturday. With another new defence Paulton were a touch nervous but didn't show it and the defence of Katrina, Kim and Laura worked well to prevent the Sydenham shooters from getting their shots on target. The first quarter ended 6-3 to Paulton.
The second quarter saw Paulton well and truly get in to their stride and thanks to some great middle court play by Elizabeth and Jade Paultons attack took advantage and increased the lead 14-8
After a quick change around in defence with Amy coming on to replace Laura at WD not even the rain that was now pouring could stop Paulton's winning spirit and as usual Helen played a blinder not missing any shots and with Kristie on fine form too Paulton finished the third quarter 25-15.
The final quarter was a very damp one and saw Garnets get frustrated with Paulton's playing ability, allowing Paulton to play their own game and work well as a team. With some great play by all in this quarter Paulton finished with a comfortable lead of 33-23.

We bought this long-standing business from Becky Holland in 2014. But, Meadowbrook's roots date further back than 35 years, a job that started in Becky's shed. After out-growing locations a few times and deciding to move to the square, Becky moved the store for the last time to Union Street; between Brown's hardware and Mountain Grove Pharmacy.
Meadowbrook Natural Foods was tragically burnt in a fire Memorial Weekend in 2014.
While still utilizing the square for all it's nostalgia- The Hoekstra's re-opened (with lots of help from friends, family and employees) that October after an exhaustive work-up of the current location's historic building.
We are blessed to be serving our community with their health food, supplement and bulk needs!

Sacred Activism - what is it?
I was fortunate to hear scholar, author, mystic, journalist, spiritual teacher and altogether extraordinary man, Andrew Harvey, when he spoke in Sydney recently. I've also been reading his book "The Hope" which is a guide that helps people respond to current global challenges and serves as a much needed wake-up call to inspire action through Sacred Activism, which he see as the transforming force of wisdom, love and compassion-in-action to affect radical change in the world.

- General Nofun
- Commander Boring
- Colonel Spyke
- Tanaka Boys (Debut)
- Teddy (debut)
- Kingston (debut)
- Apollo(debut)
- Todd (debut)
- Zuma (debut)
Spoilers Are Nofun!
Kuu Kuu Harajuku that recently aired in the US. If you do not wish to be spoiled, please do not read the page, thank you!
General Nofun, who is spying on Harajuku, notices the festival from his headquarters and punches the monitor, upset over the celebration of fun. He vows to destroy it: returning dreariness.HJ5 makes it to the festival. They notice a "How Hi Kawaii" game, which the players must copy the pose on the screen and it rates their kawaii. Love mentions the game has top secret hardware, which Music adds is the reason for extra security.
Back at General Nofun's headquarters, Commander Boring tells General Nofun that the girls are sending the kawaii meters through the roof. Nofun announces that they're going to the festival, exciting Boring who is reminded that they're going to ruin the fun, not have it.
Rudie takes the girls to Harajuku's largest chess board. He also mentions that the girls have to dress up in chess piece costume and play on the chess board, much to the frustration of everyone. The girls argue whose going to be king when they overhear the members of the opposing band also think the chess idea is lame. G introduces them to HJ5 while one member (Teddy) introduces them to the Tanaka Boys. After everyone is in position on the chess board, the girls try to figure out a way to get out of the costumes. Love suggest that, using the top secret hardware from the How Hi Kawaii game, they can change their costumes.
Emerging from a ballpit General Nofun and Commander Boring hatch a plan to shut off the main power. Commander Boring makes an exasperated sigh, angering Nofun who asks him what's wrong with that. Nervously, Boring tells him nothing.
Back at the festival grounds, the girls are sneaking pass Colonel Spyke's security team when the girls, once again, begin arguing which direction is the best. G has had enough and tells them they aren't going anywhere unless they work as a team. Angel tells Music to lead the way.
At the control box, General Nofun is having difficulty shutting off the power. Commander Boring notices a whack-a-mole machine and runs over to play it.
HJ5 and the Tanaka Boys, using cotton candy as an electricy conductor, are able to generate enough power for the Kawaiifier and are able to convert their chess piece outfits into stylish ones. While the girls are inside the machine, Rudie hands the Tanaka Boys his business card "just in case". When they step out of the machine with nicely kawaii-fied outfits, Rudie revokes the card. The Tanaka Boys rush towards the Kawaiifier, but before they could reach it Rudie pulls out a contract stating he and HJ5 are not responsible for any damages inflicted from using the machine. They hesitantly sign and proceed to kawaii-fy their outfits.
The girls agree they all learned a valuable lesson, which Rudie interrupts and puts his own spin on it. He flicks on the lights and HJ5 and the Tanaka Boys dance.
- Angel: This just goes to show, with the right attitude you can kawaii-fy anything!
- Love: In fact, I think we all learned a valuable lesson about the importance of-
- Rudie: Of trusting in the judgement of your manager and doing whatever he asks you to do in the future. And with those final thoughts in mind, let's party!
- Rudie: Best manager ever. Nailed it!
- This is the second episode where General Nofun appears on a title card.
- This is the sixth episode where Baby appears on a title card.
- This is the first episode where Love appears on a title card.
- How Hi Kawaii is based on test of strength games commonly seen at carnivals.
- General No-Fun full name is General Ira S. No-Fun.

Background: DEP domain containing mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-interacting protein (DEPTOR), a recently discovered endogenous inhibitor of mTOR, has been found to be abnormally expressed in various tumors. Recent studies have demonstrated that DEPTOR could serve as a potential prognostic biomarker in several kinds of cancer. However, the prognostic value of DEPTOR is still controversial so far.
Patients and methods: PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were systematically searched to obtain all relevant articles about the prognostic value of DEPTOR in cancer patients. ORs or HRs with corresponding 95% CIs were pooled to estimate the association between DEPTOR expression and the clinicopathological characteristics or survival of cancer patients.
Results: A total of nine eligible studies with 974 cancer patients were included in our meta-analysis. Our results demonstrated that the expression of DEPTOR was not associated with the overall survival (OS) (pooled HR=0.795, 95% CI=0.252–2.509) and event-free survival (EFS) (pooled HR=1.244, 95% CI=0.543–2.848) in cancer patients. Furthermore, subgroup analysis divided by sample size, type of cancer, Newcastle–Ottawa Scale (NOS) score and evaluation of DEPTOR expression showed identical prognostic value. In addition, our analysis also revealed that there was no significant association between expression level of DEPTOR and clinicopathological characteristics, such as tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, differentiation grade and gender.
Conclusion: Our meta-analysis suggested that despite the fact that DEPTOR could be overexpressed or downregulated in cancer patients, it might not be a potential marker to predict the prognosis of cancer patients.
Keywords: DEPTOR, cancer, overall survival, event-free survival, meta-analysis

Introduction Suggestion Keyword Finder
SpyFu is among the more feature rich tools, but probably has the Least attractive interface on the market. SpyFu provides SEO and PPC spy tool options alongside their very own research tool. Suggestion Keyword Finder
Click here now to register to Spyfu!
Keyword User and Search Experience
The SpyFu dashboard is smartly laid out using a navigation bar across the top with tabs for SEO Research, PPC Research, Keyword Research, Backlinks, the List Builder, Tracking, and Reports. There is a lot SpyFu can do throughout the spectrum of SEO tooling, but with this particular review we're focusing mostly on its own ad hoc lookup capabilities. When a company is looking to identifying the best possible search engine results pages (SERP) to aim with an optimization strategy, keyword-driven investigation is the legwork to get pages to rank higher. Management capacities and recommendations are built in throughout SpyFu, but I began in the Keyword Research tab.
When I used exactly the Exact Same set of five Key words to see results differed between each of my competitors. The five keywords that I used were digital advertising pcmag, online shopping, IT consultant, and small business bookkeeping. I chose this mixture to simulate real-world terms that companies might hunt for (including publishers like PCMag) and to find related search results and vulnerable competition websites.
I discovered that after conducting searches on my five evaluation terms SpyFu produces and structures its keyword results and metrics somewhat differently than Moz Pro, KWFinder, or Ahrefs$82.00 in Ahrefs. Rather than populating a table of associated keywords with Page Authority (PA) and Domain Name Authority (DA) metrics together with stats on cost per click (CPC) and key word difficulty, SpyFu draws a far more obvious correlation with exactly how much cash a key word is worth. After hunting"digital advertising," for instance, a separate navigation bar appeared round the top of their results page further breaking down the search results. You can then drill down into keyword summary, related key words, advertiser background, status background, backlinks, keyword grouping, and SERP analysis. That's only for one key word showing how SpyFu does the most granular deep-dive investigation into data of all the tools I tested.
Atop the results, SpyFu gave me not CPC for the Key word, however a daily and monthly cost breakdown as well as how many unique advertisers had appeared on the key word in the past year. I received the same degree of price breakdown when I clicked on the Related Keyword, which also allowed me to narrow results using a left-hand filter menu to a specific price every day, daily investigation volume, difficulty rating, and more.
In the bottom of the results was that the SERP analysis. This broke down each URL from the search results page, even however KWFinder and Moz Guru both provide a much more comprehensive breakdown in this respect. SpyFu targets monthly cost, which may or may not be important to your small business. Results such as the Advertiser History graph, a lengthy list and complicated diagram of the advertisements appearing on this search page as time passes, was somewhat too from the weeds for me as a novice SEO instrument user. But for advertisers and marketers, SpyFu can be a gold mine. Suggestion Keyword Finder
SpyFu Kombat
With SpyFu Kombat you can look at overlapping and website key words For up to 3 sites. For your PPC version you can also find a graph which goes over a span of a few years demonstrating that the general amount of key words being bid on by all 3 websites. You may also rollover the graph to find key words specific to just 2 of the sites if you feel the 3rd website may not be doing as good a job (or vice versa) as two of the other websites. It is going to also show you that the PPC budgets of the sites in addition to the amount of organic keywords ranking in the top 50 results for said keyword.
When you click on an area of the circle graph it will show you that the Keywords in whatever bucket you click. It is possible to view and download those keywords for your own use. As you can see I'm on the advertisements tab however, the choices are comparable once you click the natural tab (on the top box, the natural one on the bottom shows you total organic key words ).
Switching between the natural tab along with the ppc tab (as well as the Overall # of organic keywords + PPC ad budget should also give you an notion of which of the bigger sites are more to the PPC or SEO side of things which can be a fantastic barometer to check at if you chance to be concentrating on one place on the other hand.

Keyword Management and Reports
Keyword direction is baked in to SpyFu throughout the platform. Within each of its three major research tabs–SEO, PPC, and Keyword–you will find options in the drop-down menus for SEO and PPC-specific keywords, and Keyword Groups. The Keyword Groups attributes in each tab are fairly similar, populating a table using minimal search volume, CPC, difficulty score, and monthly cost. These are SpyFu's four main metrics where key word research is worried. On the left of the desk are the keyword you have researched and grouped yourself, or top keyword class suggestions from SpyFu. On the top right of the desk you can then add selected keywords to lists, or export your chosen key words as an Microsoft Excel file, CSV, or PDF. This fundamental keyword category performance is much like SEMrush$99.95 in SEMrush and implemented better in Moz Pro and KWFinder.
Where SpyFu's keyword management capabilities really stand Out are at its List Builder and Tracking tabs. Additionally, this is where SpyFu creates its profound connection between SEO and customer relationship management (CRM). In the List Builder tab, there's a Top Lists section with concentrated lists of domain names and key words like"Assets Which Pay the Most On AdWords," keywords with the maximum CPC. There is also a listing of the most expensive keywords, which you can then filter by state, business, or a particular web-based technology: Ad buying platform, affiliate marketing, email advertising, and online shopping cart are a few of the choices.
Next to Top Lists, there's a dedicated Company Leads tab. This essentially acts exactly the exact same manner as a key word search: You enter a place, businesses and keywords, and refine outcomes using filters such as AdWords budget and SEO clicks. The search then returns a list of URL leads with this site advertising budget and contact information that is accessible that can be exported to your CRM or lead management system. I'd love to see SpyFu go a step farther with this and integrate its own SEO lead lists directly using a stage such as Salesforce$75.00 in salesforce.com, but the instrument is already ahead of the curve. SEMrush includes a beta generation tool, but that's the closest any other optimization merchandise I tested comes to exactly what SpyFu offers.
However, SpyFu incorporated AdWords Templates as Part of a Google AdWords campaign. The templates include prewritten advertisements for groups in countless industries. Users can download the templates in the SpyFu site and then upload into a AdWords account.
The system also includes SEO campaign management Using its My SpyFu Project Manager tool. SpyFu designed this as a project management(PM) feature within the SEO platform for tackling integrated key word research and rank tracking in a campaign. My SpyFu is just accessible paid programs (not the free trial), but it allows you to install multiple jobs tracking grouped keywords plotted against SEO position, traffic worth, ROI, and a number of different metrics. All you need to do is open the My SpyFu menu and add a new job. It's the only and best case in this roundup of built-in, SEO-focused PM.
There's also the Tracking tab, which lets you choose Keywords youbegin tracking that reports back together with weekly domain positions and keyword ranking changes and've identified. I was able to prepare custom SEO reports in a few simple measures: Enter a domain name choose if to conduct a document on SpyFu's suggested domain keywords or custom key words. I entered my five habit key words chose up to five opponents' URLs, and then was given the option to run a report or a recurring monthly report.
That sort of analysis that is competitive is just another area where SpyFu stands out, since it also has a tool called"Kombat" that's available in the SEO and PPC Research tabs. In Kombat, I typed in the domain of PCMag and the instrument built an interactive information visualization that revealed where PCMag keywords overlapped with our competitors. There's also what SpyFu calls for a"key word world," list CPC, CTR, monthly cost, and monthly clicks to get core keywords and recommended keywords. This study breakdown is another feature that will help ways for you to gain an SEO edge. Suggestion Keyword Finder
Along with the SEO functionality of its main product, SpyFu has introduced a research tool named Nacho Analytics, which provides access to different sites' web analytics. Through this stage, you can view time-of-day visitors, sections, and behavior.
Keyword Advertisement History
You will be shown by keyword Advertisement History, through coded bars often the Keyword appeared in a domain PPC campaign along with any changes in the ad copy (all of which may be exported into excel). It shows that a year's worth of data and goes back to 2006 through the Bonus History Button.
So it's fairly straightforward, which is exactly what I like about SpyFu Tools. No more over-reliance on"in-house metrics" it is just"here is the ad history of this keyword", plain and simple. Normally, if you see a key word being advertised on by a PPC advertiser that is fantastic consistent it's possible to look to employ that advertisement copy technique to a niche market of the keyword that is larger. If I had been advertisements for"resorts in Oklahoma" I might listen to that which ad copy has been successful, over time, for this main/core key word"resorts".
Domain Ad History
Except it reveals the, domain Ad History Is like Keyword Advertisement History Key word history of a domainname.
This instrument is useful in Taking a Look Your competitors (or larger players on your niche) and which ones that they attempted and abandoned (which could be ones that you prevent from the gate). All this presumes the domain you're currently researching is capable PPC advertiser.
Keyword Smart Search
The Keyword Smart Search tool in SpyFu utilizes semantic term relationships, Publicly accessible keyword data, and PPC campaign information to come back a list of keywords associated with the keyword(s) (up to 10) you input. As you can see, you can filter by CPC, look volume, and you can also exclude key words.
For me, I prefer to use the PPC keywords as well as the Organic key words found In either SpyFu Classic or SpyFu Kombat. I love to use different tools for pure keyword research (Google tools, Microsoft Ad Center Intelligence, and Wordtracker). I feel SpyFu is at its best when employed as a competitive research instrument versus a keyword research tool. Suggestion Keyword Finder
Pricing and Strategies
As I mentioned, SpyFu's Fundamental plan starts at $33 each Month when billed annually (or $39 per month ). Though, unlike other tools within this SEO tool review roundup, such as Moz Pro and KWFinder$12.00 in KWFinder, SpyFu doesn't price by search results. All programs have an infinite number of domain name, key word, keyword group, backlink, and competitor/domain comparison search results along with boundless data export. The performance that you get with SpyFu for your price is a significant element in the reason we gave it an Editors' Choice, and the search volumes make the tool much more attractive for research that is keyword that is ad hoc.
That's not to say SpyFu does not cap anything. The Fundamental Plan provides you a potential of 250 sales leads and domain contacts, and 5,000 weekly tracked keyword positions, together with 10 domain reports and 10 pay-per-click (PPC) reports through SpyFu's AdWords Advisor tool. The $78-per-month Professional plan (also $58 per month when billed annually) lumps leads and contacts to 500 and per week monitored keyword rankings to 15,000, along with custom-branded reports and accessibility to SpyFu's application programming interface (API).
Finally, SpyFu has included a $199 per month Team plan (billed yearly, or $299 month-to-month) using 2,000 sales leads and domain contacts, 40,000 weekly tracked keyword positions, and five user logins. SpyFu also includes a 30-day money-back warranty. The company has really slashed on its pricing.
I find their tools helpful for research. I do not use Their Keyword Smart Search which They give (in a straightforward fashion) in the price points they provide is quite A wonderful combination. SpyFu makes its way into my arsenal on just about Each undertaking. Suggestion Keyword Finder

Rennie Curran left Georgia a year early to enter the NFL draft. Smart move #1.
Curran recently stated that part of his reason for leaving was the fact that UGA fired three members of the defensive coaching staff, including defensive coordinator Willie Martinez. You can't let the tail wag the dawg here, and I'm not sure how much of a factor the coaching staff change was, but it certainly didn't help Georgia's case if the team wanted to keep Curran around.
A key part of being successful at linebacker is being so accustomed to the defensive schemes that a player can quickly make the right reads and play at a fast pace. With a new defensive staff coming in, Curran would have had to learn new terminology, new play calls, adjust to the 3-4 defense, and perhaps even do a lot more coverage out of the backfield. Combine all the foregoing with the risk of injury and the chance to make an NFL salary, and Curran's time as a Bulldog had come to a close.
I like the fact that Curran did his research before making a decision. He has also bulked up enough to gain consideration for the middle linebacker position.
More smart moves for Curran. Big loss for Georgia. Great opportunity for other linebackers on the roster.
