Fox eCampaigns
Working with small businesses and realty agents with their social media marketing efforts can sometimes be a challenge. There are many tasks that go into creating successful campaigns for businesses who are not too familiar with social media today. Jason Fox, founder of Fox eCampaigns works with these businesses to help them create a campaign that will get them recognized with their targeted audience. When first starting work with a client, Jason sets up a meeting to figure out what they are already doing for their strategy, and what their niche is. Once Jason has discussed what his clients' want, he then creates a new strategy for them, or even comes up with a social media campaign. Jason usually tries to get his clients interested in doing a SEO campaign because it is the easiest and quickest way to get noticed. As long as you have the right keywords in the right places from a business website, then search engines are able to pick them up putting that business website at the top of list.
The strategy or campaign that is created depends on the type of company or business. "There is not a one size fits all solution, it is very dependent on the different businesses, what a business wants to achieve." Most of the campaigns that Jason runs for his clients deal with creating a WordPress blog and e-mail marketing. The goal is to create a campaign that will generate traffic to the business he is working with. His favorite social media channel to use when promoting his own business, or one he is working with is Facebook. Jason's strategy on Facebook is simple, he posts about what he is doing on different groups and there are millions of people on Facebook so it is a good way to get your message out.
While talking with Jason about any recent campaigns that he had done, he explained to me one he was currently working on for a mortgage company. The first step for the company was to build a professional and completely customized WordPress site for its main office. Then he was going to build twelve other WordPress sites on a multi-user platform for the twelve lenders of the company, each one of them being unique but still in some way connected to the main site. The next step was to create another customized theme for the main website of the company put together with the strategy previously talked about in mind on how they want to offer different incentives. The purpose of having the twelve different sites for each employee is so that they can all blog as an office. Once one employee blogs about something, it will go out to the rest of the office so they can all stay up dated on what is going on.
Once the work of getting the strategy down and incorporating that in to each of the websites, he then planned to start an SEO campaign that would run on the main page of the main lead generation site. The goal was to maximize five to ten keywords for the local area and then distribute them down to representatives. After creating the best possible keywords for search engines to pick up, Jason then planned to syndicate them out to the custom fan pages on Facebook that he would also be creating for the mortgage company. Not only would he create the fan pages with the same theme as the main websites, but he was to also create a Facebook landing page with the same branding to create credibility. He then is going to shoot off to Twitter to post important information about the company to a whole different audience. The most important purpose is to reach out to as many people as possible about the mortgage company. He wants to get people interested in it so that they can have a larger fan base and gain more customers. One of the final steps Jason planned to do in helping this company grow was to create a short professional video to post on the company's main page of their website. The video was to be about the company, what they do, and how people can benefit from their services.
Now this is just an example of a campaign Jason is currently working on. Each one of the campaigns vary depending on what it is his client's want. Although each campaign ends up being different, Jason has found that the people he works with all want a similar result; that is to get potential customer e-mail addresses. By getting a bigger amount of e-mail addresses, the businesses then have a higher rate of people to reach out to about the services they offer, meaning the more customers they are sure to get.
"95 percent of people on the internet are on research mode, they don't want to buy right away."
When Jason works on his own e-mail marketing, he mentioned that every time he sends out an e-mail, he gets business. People do not want to be sold right away, they want to do their research to see what best fits them. By adding them to your e-mail list, then you are always at the top of their mind. "You first want to offer them solutions to their business, be a publisher rather than a marketer."Read More
Beads and Dangles-Refer a Friend Program Catches Attention
Starting a loyalty program for your business is a great way to reward your most loyal customers. Marji Bitterman, President of Beads and Dangles thought the same thing and recently started one of her own. Beads and Dangles is an eCommerce store with a large collection of European beads that come in sterling silver, silver plate, enamel, Murano glass and much more. Marji's mission at Beads and Dangles is to help people look and feel great with quality jewelry and exceptional prices.
A few years ago when Marji first started Beads and Dangles, her main goal was to bring in high quality but affordable beads. She strived to provide the best customer service she could. In the beginning she went with the traditional sales method of discounts, coupons, and promos to bring in more customers to her website. As her business started to grow she noticed her customers saying how great her site is. They would go on to tell how much they love her beads and that they have been telling their friends about it.
"I'm all about not just customer service, but creating fun and happiness with anybody that I work with, and so the happiness part meant giving back to customers who were loyal to me."
This is when Marji began searching the web for good loyalty programs to reward her customers for sharing with their friends about her products. Soon she stumbled across NextBee, a program that offers referral and loyalty solutions for businesses. She immediately got started with NextBee because they offered exactly what she was looking for.
The first step was to install a viral building mailing list, a widget put onto the website that any customer could click on called Join E-List. Once a customer clicks on the widget they fill out a simple contact information form. After hitting submit they are automatically rewarded with a coupon code of 15% off their first order. They can even save the coupon to use anytime because it does not expire.
Soon Marji's business really started to take off and became very successful because customers understood the value of what she was doing. She then realized that one component was missing. All these loyal customers were telling their friends about her website, however, this went unrewarded. NextBee then helped Marji install an Invite a Friendwidget on her website. This widget allowed customers to click on it and enter a friends e-mail address. Once they submit their information, the friend and the referrer immediately receive a coupon code for 20% off their next order.
"I was happy, everybody was happy because they saw that I was giving back, they appreciated the value of what they were getting and the orders really continued to grow with that program."
Beads and Dangles began to grow very quickly. Marji was getting great feedback about how much customers loved her professionalism, the quality of the beads and the prices. Marji wanted to share this feedback with other customers, and with the help from NextBee, a widget was added onto the home page. This allowed everyone to see the great reviews that were being written about Beads and Dangles.
The success from this campaign shows how much social media can affect a business. Marji Bitterman's decision to reward her customers was a great way to improve brand awareness, while keeping her customers coming back again and again. She succeeding in her goal to create not only beautiful jewelry, but also created a fun, happy environment for her customers.Read More
Klark Agency
At Klark Agency, Scott Klarkowski is a social media manager, strategist, and consultant. He started Klark Agency as a way to help his clients accomplish their most ambitious marketing goals. The goal of Klark Agency is to ensure that companies know exactly what they are doing to run successful campaigns and then giving them the help to create the best strategy for each campaign.
Klark Agency works mostly with non-profit and small businesses. Scott has found that seven out of ten people he helps know the value of having social media in their businesses, but they need a little extra help to really understand it. To help them run successful campaigns, the first step is to find out where the companies head is at, what the company does, and the best way to branch out new products. Once all those are established, social media is then wrapped around what it is the company does.
"I have over 20 years of diverse business experience, I really love social media and it is crucial to many businesses."-Scott
Depending on the type of company that reaches out to Klark Agency, will depend on how each campaign will be handled. A common factor in each company's campaign is third party content. Klark Agency produces this content for clients in order to generate traffic to their websites or Facebook fan pages. One of the unique factors of Klark Agency is how they incorporate photography into the campaigns from Scott's own photography business. Using photography keeps each campaign interesting and unique in their own way. Recently a small local art center reached out to Klark Agency to gain help with their own social media efforts. The art center is about to introduce summer classes and needed a little extra help promoting them in a way that would get people interested in going. As an effort to help, Klark Agency is producing the third party content explaining how art classes are great for families under financial stress. Producing this type of content for companies has noticeably helped their strategies move more smoothly.
When Scott is working on a campaign, he finds that the company employees he is working with really do not know what their brand is, so he helps to guide them. "I find that the market right now is flooded with social media people and i feel like a lot of people don't represent very well. We don't have a great reputation," Scott mentioned, "We are really valuable." When Scott is working on a campaign for a certain company, his goals depend on the type of company he is working with. Usually he works with them to gain new clients, grow their database, grow in sales, and increase market share. The campaigns he runs are usually for local companies in his area. In a recent interview, Scott was proud to say that he has been very successful with helping businesses in social media, and he has not failed any task he has been given.
So far one of the most successful campaigns run by Klark Agency was for the local art center. The art center was trying to get more people to come into their store so they came up with a campaign that would get more people coming in. They advertised a certain day for customers to come in and once people started coming into the store they would have to introduce themselves then sign into Facebook or Foursquare and like the art center's fan page. After signing into either of the two social networks they would then receive a gift certificate from the art center for five or ten percent off of their first purchases. Three hundred people showed up for that campaign. From May to today that art center has received 700 'Likes' on Facebook.
"The campaign was an overwhelming success. For such a simple campaign, the hardest thing to do is get people to like you."
Parallel to working with small and non-profit businesses, Scott Klarkowski has been working with musicians in a band called Anonymous to promote themselves through social networks. For each show that the band plays they do Youtube promotions. During a recent concert they ran a contest for the audience. Whoever posted a video of the band's show on Youtube would receive tickets to the next show, an autographed picture or a signed CD. Their first concert was played in Iowa City for 500 people. Out of those 500 people, fifteen of them entered the YouTube contest. The videos that were recorded for that show were also put up on Facebook pages for friends to see. The band's strategy for this campaign is to play six times in one year at the same place. Including a contest in the strategy makes it more fun for the audience to come and they are eager to see how this will affect their fan base and iTunes sales.
Many believe that using social networks is the best way to get promoted. Big companies do not realize how powerful social networking can be, and instead they spend great amounts of money to advertise their products. The strategies created by Klark Agency have been proven to help many small and non-profit businesses gain attention. Scott is dedicated to his work and works his hardest to help businesses with their social media efforts.Read More
Micro Media Marketing
The sole focus for the employees at Micro Media Marketing is directed towards social media and making it work for their clients. Micro Media Marketing works with local Hispanic brands, and eCommerce companies that are all focused on doing more with their social media marketing efforts. Their clients need a little extra help figuring out the right direction to go in when creating social media campaigns.
When companies come to Micro Media Marketing for assistance, they outsource everything to them. They are in charge of all aspects of social media for the companies they are working with. Each day the team is posting, blogging, or sending out messages through many social networks for each company they are doing business with. As their plan of action for each company, they develop a strategy and look more into the brand to create a blog series that will generate more traffic to the company websites. Another benefit they provide for people is training them in house on the best practices of social media and how to properly run social media platforms.
Micro Media Marketing runs a various number of different types of campaigns depending on the type of company they are working with. Many of the campaigns revolve around Facebook advertisements, contests, and promotions. When working on a Facebook advertising campaign they are extremely targeted to the demographic they want. One client of theirs started out on Facebook with no fans at all. They own a bedding company that sells top brand items in bedding. Instead of just creating a campaign with different keywords that would go back to the company, they created one with keywords targeted towards their audience. The goal was to target the people who are interested in the brands that the company sells which was mainly women, so they also targeted women in the ages of 25 to 45.
Campaigns that they have found to be successful on Facebook are birthday campaigns. For these campaigns, they usually post a positive message to associate with a fan wishing them Happy Birthday. Added to the message they usually include a picture of a cake with candles or a little kid with chocolate cake all over their face. A campaign like this is simple and has a positive affect on the company. Another type of campaign they have noticed to get a high response rate are 'like' campaigns. When running any type of these campaigns, it is very important to monitor changes. If you are running a Facebook advertisement campaign then tweak your ads every now and then. Do not just stick with one, change it up to see which ad gets the most response.
For many of the campaigns Micro Media Marketing runs the expected results are usually the same. People want to get as many 'likes' as possible on Facebook, they want their click through rate to be high, and they want their fans to interact with them on social networks. If a company has a lot of 'likes' and comments on their web pages then that will put them higher in the news feed, gaining them more visibility. A great way to become more visible to fans is to ask questions. This will not only build more awareness for the company, but it is also a great way to get fan interaction.
On top of running day to day tasks of each companies social media marketing strategies, Micro Media Marketing also creates a monthly report for each company showing Facebook insights and if the targeted demographic is being reached. They also try to use links that are trackable and synced to Google analytics. This way than can show their clients the traffic going to their site, what strategies are working the best, and which products people are most interested in.
When it comes to sending out messages to targeted audiences, the team relies mostly on Twitter. " Twitter is cool because you don't have to know people to interact with them and you can monitor keywords. On Facebook you can only see what people write on walls, Twitter takes it further so you can dig down and monitor key words about products, services, and company names." Twitter is also a good customer service tool for businesses to interact with their customers about problems they may be having.
Along with her busy schedule at Micro Media Marketing, Stephanie, founder of Micro Media Marketing, also loves to blog. Because she has always been so interested in social media, she now shares her insights with her readers. If there is an upcoming conference that Stephanie is going to attend she will set up a guide for other people attending the conference. She will let them know what time each event will be and what they should expect. After the conference is over, she does a review of what she learned and shares it on her blog. Even though social media is constantly changing, Stephanie and her team at Micro Media Marketing stay on top of the new trends of social media to make sure their clients get the best they can offer.

text: Really neat TV Lift. I like the retro look/feel of the system. We at Firgelli Automations considered doing a scissor-type motorized lift, but after much testing we realized it would be better to have a single column actuator lifting your tv. Space efficient, and simple. If you want to build your own custom lift with motors you can find them on this site: http://www.firgelliauto.com/default.php?cPath=91 or you can go for the full TV lift kit here: http://www.firgelliauto.com/default.php?cPath=108 We love seeing people get as into home automation as we do, let's keep up the creativity!

Natural Hair Treatment
rana | Oct 18, 2012 | Comments 0
As we all know that hairs needs treatment for care and to makes them shiny and healthy. Now a days hair treatments are very expensive and cheap.
Nobody can attempt these kinds of treatments for hair. But we don't know that god provides us many things in which all important ingredients for our health.
Same as for our hairs health and growth.
My information is about hairs growth and health.
These are natural tips and low cast. Easy to apply.
1) Honey Treatment.
If you're looking to add some shine and moisture to your hair then look no further then honey. Honey is able to hold on to water molecules, which means honey treatments are perfect for conditioning and adding that desired shine. Honey is also super rich in sulfur, iron, zinc and vitamins b1, b2, b3- all nutrients that aid in hair growth.
1. You'll need: ½ cup honey, 2 tablespoon olive oil (be sure to apply to freshly shampooed hair)
2. Mix honey with olive oil. Heat mixture in microwave for 30 seconds. Apply to hair, then cover head with shower cap for 15-30 minutes. Rinse out with shampoo/conditioner and style as desired.
2) Avocado Treatment.
Avocado is a quick and easy way to soften, moisturize and deep condition hair. Avocados contain plenty of fatty acids which nourish dry and brittle hair. They also are rich in vitamins, protein and amino acids to promote healthy and stronger hair.
1. You'll need: 1 avocado (peeled), 1 egg yolk, 1 tablespoon jojoba oil (be sure to apply to freshly shampooed hair)
2. Combine all ingredients together in a bowl until smooth. Massage mixture into scalp and hair.
3. Leave in for 20 minutes. Rinse out with shampoo/conditioner and style as usual.
3) Papaya Treatment.
If you are looking to maintain the natural shine and softness of your natural hair then papaya is your solution. Papaya fruit is rich in vitamins, minerals and helps nourish hair and remove unwanted residues from product buildup.
1. You'll need: 1 raw papaya, ½ cup yogurt (be sure to apply to freshly shampooed hair)
2. Remove seeds and skin of papaya. Blend it in a blender and add half a cup of yogurt to mix.
3. Apply this paste to your hair and scalp. Cover hair with a shower cap for 15-30 minutes.
4. Rinse out with shampoo/conditioner and style as usual.
4) Coconut- oil Treatment.
Coconut milk is rich in protein and fatty acids, which makes it great for conditioning, strengthening and minimizing hair damage.
It also protects you hair from the uv damage of constant sun exposure. It is true that after a trip to the beach, coconut milk is the perfect way to restore softness and shine to your hair.
You'll need: 1 cup coconut milk, 1 peeled and mashed avocado, 1 tbsp of honey (be sure to apply to freshly shampooed hair).
Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. You can apply cool mixture directly to hair, or preheat mixture in microwave for 30-45 seconds. When applying, massage mixture into hair and scalp.
Wrap hair in a hot towel or cover with shower cap for 15 min-60 min. Rinse out with shampoo/conditioner and style as usual.

I'm Back
After a couple of weeks of phone-only Internet, I've got my hands on a keyboard again and I'm looking at a screen bigger than four inches. It feels strange, but it's good to be back.
My many thanks to Kim for holding down the fort while I'm gone. Be sure to follow her at @krees and check out Periscopic for your information visualization needs.
So what'd I miss?

Hey…nothing special regarding the graphics, but a thought-provoking concept. It'd be interesting to see what one of the hot-shots on this site could do: http://bigthink.com/strange-maps/131-us-states-renamed-for-countries-with-similar-gdps?fb_ref=.T8YgzYUWDBt.like&fb_source=home_multiline
Hats off to Kim for doing a great job of filling in for you!
Thanks Nathan and Peter. I had a great time! Although it was a bit stressful finding things that were worthy of FD and your very savvy readers.

They are the Three Amigos! And amigos, forever, they'll be.
Except Scrapple. Batman thinks he's weird.
They are the Three Amigos! And amigos, forever, they'll be.
Sorry for the long hiatus, everyone. Thank you for being so patient! New Batman and Steak comics will resume around 5 or so tonight when the queue picks up!
A quick announcement, though: Batman and Steak will be moving to updates thrice a week from now on starting in 7 days when this queue runs out, as a daily comic has me running out of ideas fairly quickly. Hopefully it will help provide better comics! Sadly, Tumblr doesn't allow queuing like that, so the timing might be less precise. But it'll happen, I promise.
Still sick, so production has been slow. I'm getting back on it, I promise. Hopefully next week I should have things back to normal. Sorry for the interruption, followers!
Thanks for your patience.

Love, Kids and Horses Inc
An outreach Ministry for Children and Horses
Love, Kids and Horses' purpose is to provide a place and an opportunity for children to experience unconditional love and acceptance by allowing them to be just children and experience joy while learning about and riding horses under the guidance of our mentors.
Our ministry is a ministry of love and we strive to restore the joy that the difficulties of life may have stolen from these children by pouring love and joy into their lives for a season. Our horses are instrumental to our ministry as they are used by God as a tool to reach the children's hearts. Together they create lifelong memories and the healing process to mend their hearts begins.
Our horses come from different backgrounds, some are rescues, some are adopted and some have been volunteered by their owners to serve the children in our program. The rescued horses benefit from the love shown by the kids and the ministry creates a loving home for them. The kids and horses benefit each other through work, caring and fun.
Love, Kids and Horses serves children that face difficult situations in their daily lives. These children with wounded hearts and emotional needs come from diverse backgrounds and sources.
Love, Kids and Horses is a Christ-based non-denominational organization registered in the State of Georgia as a non-profit corporation.
A little
can straighten a flower stem
A little
can change
a life.

Charles Jalloh on the International Criminal Court, in JURIST
Professor Charles Jalloh has published an op-ed on JURIST entitled, "The African Union and the International Criminal Court: The Summer of our Discontent(s)." From the introduction:
On July 27, 2010, the Assembly of Heads of States--the primary decision-making organ of the African Union (AU)--met in Kampala, Uganda for its 15th Annual Summit. As usual, the African leadership adopted some important decisions and declarations on a range of political, economic, and social issues affecting the continent. The Assembly also adopted decisions regarding three justice-related questions that have been on its agenda for the past few years, namely: the International Criminal Court (ICC or the Court), the abuse of the principle of universal jurisdiction, and the pending trial in Senegal of former Chadian President Hissène Habré on allegations of torture. Ironically--considering that the meeting took place in the same venue where barely over a month ago the ICC had held its first-ever Review Conference since the Rome Statute entered into force on July 1, 2002--the AU's latest decision regarding the ICC shows its growing discontent with the current trajectory of the Court's work in Africa; in particular, the sequencing of justice and peace in the Sudan.Link

Egypt draft constitution adopted, goes to referendum
®Copyright MediaCorp
Egypt's constituent assembly has adopted a draft constitution that will be put to a referendum.
The chairman of the assembly, Hossam el-Ghiriani, said the text, which is adopted unanimously, is to be sent to President Mohamed Morsi and a referendum will be held in two weeks.
The opposition, which has mobilised unprecedented rallies since Mr Morsi assumed broad powers last week, accuses the president and allies in the constituent assembly of railroading the charter through for a quick referendum.
The constitution will replace the one suspended after former president Hosni Mubarak's overthrow in early 2011.

Late Wednesday morning, the New York Islanders traded the rights of the soon to be unrestricted free agent Defenseman Mark Streit to the Philadelphia Flyers, in return for forward prospect Shane Harper of the Adirondack Phantoms and a 4th round pick in the 2014 NHL draft.
Streit, who originally was drafted by the Montreal Canadiens in the 9th round, 262nd overall, signed a 5 year/$20.5 Million deal with the New York Islanders in 2008. The deal brought the offensively gifted Defenseman to Long Island, and to a team that lacked offense during the midst of a rocky rebuild period. After the retirement of Doug Weight, Streit was named Captain of the young Islanders team at the start of the 2011-12 season, and just this past season led the Islanders to the NHL Playoffs for the first time since the 2006-07 season. Streit, 35, leaves after contract negotiations broke down between him and the Islanders after a reported proposed deal of 5.5 million per season for 3 years was declined. With a weak free agent market, it's believed that although Streit only managed 6 goals and 21 assists in 48 games this past season, he should command the market as a top UFA.
With their rights acquisition, the Philadelphia Flyers obtain valuable time to exclusively negotiate with Streit and his agent, prior to the July 5th date when he is set to hit the free agency market. Though the Flyers are over the salary cap and are coming off a disappointing season, where they dealt with multiple injuries and missed the playoffs for the first time since the 2006-07 season, they hope to find a suitable player in Streit to fill their need for an effective, offensive, mobile, puck moving Defenseman that they've lacked since the departure of Chris Pronger.
In return, the Islanders obtain tangible assets in Shane Harper and the Flyers 4th round pick in the 2014 NHL draft, after GM Garth Snow held his cards at the trade deadline and kept Mark Streit for their push for the playoffs. The trade also frees up a valuable defenseman position on the Islanders blueline that has slowly been patched by newcomers Lubomir Visnovsky, Thomas Hickey, Brian Strait, Matt Carkner and Joe Finley. It's believed that Bridgeport Sound Tiger Matt Donovan has the best shot at filling the hole Streit leaves behind. Donovan, the 2008 4th round pick of Edmond, Oklahoma, has become one of the premier AHL Defenseman in just his first full season with the Sound Tigers. The University of Denver Alum was named as an AHL All-Star this year after posting up 10 goals, 35 assists for 45 points this past season. Donovan will have to compete in Training Camp against fellow Sound Tigers, Aaron Ness and Calvin DeHaan, as well as new comers/waiver wire pickups Thomas Hickey and Brian Strait for the starting job.
There has been no announcement of who will Captain the freshly revitalized New York Islanders come 2014, but it's almost unanimously expected that the Hart trophy nominee John Tavares will definitely be a front runner for the "C" patch. Whoever is named Captain of the New York Islanders team, will have big shoes to fill coming off a successful season of finally making the playoffs, and will be expected to lead the team further into the postseason come 2014.

Obama is black liar. His whole life is just one big compilation of fantasies and bullshit stories. I can't believe that half of the county bought into this walking joke.
As reported on Breitbart.com:
Exclusive – The Vetting: Like My 'Compressed' Ex-Girlfriend, Obama Was 'An Ardent Marxist Socialist' in College
[Regina] told me about her childhood in Chicago, the absent father and struggling mother, the South Side's six-flat that never seemed warm enough in winter and got so hot in the summer that people went out by the lake to sleep….Her voice evoked a vision of black life in all its possibility, a vision that filled me with longing–a longing for place, and a fixed and definite history. As we were getting up to leave, I told Regina I envied her. "For what?" "I don't know. For your memories, I guess."
That passage, from Obama's (first) autobiography, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance (pp. 158-9), describes "Regina," a young black woman at Occidental College whom he claimed was crucial to his political awakening. She even encouraged him to drop "Barry" in favor of "Barack." He envied her confidence, and her memories–so much so, in fact, that he made them up. Not only was "Regina" not from the poor South Side of Chicago; she was not even black.
I know, because she was my girlfriend at the time.
The collegiate Obama was an ardent Marxist socialist extremist. I confronted young Obama's naïve faith in an inevitable Communist revolution when he visited the San Francisco area during his Christmas break from Occidental College in 1980

Has been a success. After a summer of feeling braindead and dreading the idea of returning back to doing art, I feel I've settled in well and I am currently working on developing my 2-D work. That being painting, print making, drawing and any other area of 2-D image making. I'm continuing to head towards the abstract route, following closely my interests in colour, texture, pattern, shape and composition finding the the visual qualities in it that interests me and stimulates my work and thoughts.
I want to find what it is that causes me visual interest in images of no form as opposed to form. (form being anything from grand masters paintings to illustrations of now) Not that I do not enjoy them, but what it is that makes me create the work I do.
I worked on some images today using colour, line and a range of materials, all on A4 paper, which I have scanned in and aim to manipulate to create a varied outcome diffrent to that of paint. I want to try and look past the material aethetic created and develop some images in which I can bring into printing. I also have a film to develop where I explored the varitey of textures I found using light and paper in a dark room from a porjected image, using colour to inform the the tone and image.
I aim to create a body of work that personally gives me clarity and answers as to what quality it is in the areas i'm working that interests me so much and a body of work that shows a range and development in image making, working with scale and also repetition.

(10/01/12) - For the second time in a month, a gas station employee was robbed while trying to deposit money at a bank.
The latest robbery happened Saturday morning.
Police say it all unfolded at the Citizen's Bank branch on East Genesee in New Lothrop.
That's when a Beacon and Bridge worker says a man grabbed the deposit bag from her, and ran away.
The same thing happened on Sept. 2.
Call the State Police post in Flint Township if you have any information.

Brazilian newspaper not at all biased with their Confed Cup final player ratings

Who can forget Hernanes' incredible impact at the end of yesterday's final?
(Image via @BenSmithBBC, H/T WAATP)
Stating the obvious, absolutely nothing went right for Spain in their 3-0 loss to hosts Brazil in the Confederation Cup final. Spain not only gave up three unanswered, but also missed a penalty kick and received a red card.
The silver lining? Shakira got some face time as her significant other Gerard Pique was walking off the pitch for his rough foul on Neymar. Clearly, the pop star, who shares a child with the Barcelona star, wasn't very happy.
Here's what former England international Gary Lineker had to say about it:
Shakira clearly upset that Pique has finished early.— Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker)
While protests are heating up outside the stadium, that doesn't mean everything inside the stadium is going exactly according to FIFA's plan.
During the Confederations Cup's closing ceremonies, dancers in the show unexpectedly unfurled banners with messages protesting the actions of the Brazilian government.
The organizer's aren't going to be happy about that.

Italy Takes Third!
Beautiful Rio

By: Jamie Trecker
I first heard the screams from the beach. A gaggle of children were standing and pointing at the upper floors of the Sheraton. The second time I heard them, they were screaming and pointing in my general direction. The thing is: I was twenty-two floors up, on my hotel balcony.
I turned and looked to my left and saw a waving hand and an unmistakable hairdo.
"Neymar! Neymar!"
As you will have gathered, I am staying approximately three doors down from Brazil's hottest property. In one of those bizarre accidents that happens when you stumble into a tournament late, I have managed to be booked in the team hotel for Brazil. Journalists are normally kept far, far apart from teams, but evidently, Americans are considered harmless. Last night, Luiz Felipe Scolari was eating dinner across from me while Thiago Silva played with his very adorable young son. No one seemed to care that a tattooed guy wearing a FOX Soccer polo was sleepily trying to figure out how get a piece of fish off the bones.

I paid a gravity bill today. Thankfully, not as bad as a few friends of mine. There has been a mean streak played upon two wheelers as of late, that has left me wondering when my number would be up. This was not the result of my own jack-assery, and I'm glad it happened before I got on the 134.
I was riding the bike back across town, as a favor. About a mile away from the parking garage, the front brakes locked up. I went down the road. My gear did its job. If I were wearing knee pads of some sort, I would have walked away with little more than a scratch on the heal of my hand. Bravo to full faced helmets. I'd have left a few teeth in NoHo, had I worn and oh so fashionable hipster lid. A few dudes stopped to help. One retrieved a floor dolly ( for the front wheel). We were able to get it safely across the road. The owner apologized, and told me the "bike is yours". Wow! Quite generous!
So, now I am the proud owner of a Ducati 748. Rad. Just when I was thinking "no good deed goes unpunished.".

"...what matters most transcends old stories..."
Poetically Hungry
Mary MacIntyre writes incessantly, is an avid photographer, and a classic health food nut.
the peruvian hammock blows
in gentle winter wind
on paint peeling porch.
day almost like spring.
sun promises hope.
spring! the era of new changes
wakes amidst winter.
i picked up broken pieces
from treasured objects again.
the demolition cat squad
still kittens in young big
bodies filled with curiosity
keeps crashing things
two decades of memories
scattered in shards,
and the pieces break my shadows
my previous perspectives
clearing unmentioned boundaries.
i honor the past.
i understand from broken eggs
new chicks emerge.
what matters most
transcends old stories
and expands and empowers
the love of living
as kittens grown big bodies,
perfectly present now.

Urban Eden Farm is in the city of Spokane, in the Vinegar Flats neighborhood, a mere 5 minutes from the Davenport Hotel. We Are Seriously LOCAL.
The farm is owned by Jim Schrock, who also
owns Earthworks Recycling. Jim grew up on a grain, hay, and livestock farm, south of Grand Coulee Dam in Central Washington. His family has been farming
in Washington State since 1883.
The Farm is run by Patrick Mannard. Patrick has worked on successful organic farms in Boulder Colorado and is using that experience to restore Urban Eden Farm. We are not organically certified as of now, but we don't use chemicals, herbicides, or pesticides on our farm. It is our practice to use organic methods only. 2013 was our first growing year. We sold our produce at local farmer's markets, to restaurants and we had a successful C.S.A. We are now preparing for another successful year!

Going through a tough period at work. Negative variance and all that. It's eating me up, eating my time. When it comes to my job, time fixes everything so it's just a matter of time before things get better. But still, it's tough. So, I haven't been in a good place for playing poker lately.
I went through an awesome rush a couple weeks ago and pulled the profit out to pay for a couple household fixes, and now I just can't get my head right with everything else going on. I haven't even played the Mookie in weeks.
Now, I see Manning finally light it up while I still have him benched, and Romo is stinking up the joint in the first half against the Cards.
Can't seen to win in any phase of the game these days.

Nokia Lumia 820 Deals - Grab the latest hot deals
The Nokia Lumia 820 & 920 was released simultaneously. It is not a hidden fact that the Nokia is now a loss making company. The company that once flourished in the mobile market is now going through turbulent times. In an endeavor to regain its market position, the company has started a price war of sorts in the smart-phones segment. Other phones in the similar segment are quite highly priced. It is a fact that the Lumia 820 is a fancy looking phone, loaded with a Windows Operating System. Anybody, fancying owning one such smart-phone will not mind owning this handset given the affordable Nokia Lumia 820 deals that are in the offering. Unlike the iPhone 5 there is no waiting time either for this one.
Companies like Vodafone and T-Mobile are offering some of the best Lumia 820 deals and Nokia Lumia 820 Contracts. The handset comes with a Windows 8 operating system and is highly interactive and user-friendly in operation. All orders placed on-line for this handset, will be shipped free of costs. Available in a variety of colors to choose from, this handset is sure to capture markets with its low pricing and great deals. Expected to arrive in November 2012, it is still a surprise as to what deals the retailers and the company has to offer.
However the features promise a great hand set. Powered by Windows 8 operating system, the handset gives smoothness, more features and smarter live tiles. The boxes on the home screen will update the user with information. Information like change in weather, Facebook updates etc. The Windows 8 is backed by a Microsoft 365 module, enabling a person to complete tasks on the move irrespective of the fact wherever the person is.
The camera and video experience on this new handset is excellent. The 8 megapixels camera with a Carl Zeiss lens indicates the phone means pure business. The camera combined with the smart shoot feature enables the user to take multiple shoots with a single click. There is also an option to edit pictures in order to make it look perfect. The best part of this section of phones is that they have Nokia built-in apps which for sure is not available on other smart-phones besides the brand. The brand's Drive built-in the phone offers free turn-by-turn voice navigation for your region - even without a data connection. It includes speed limit warnings, traffic alerts and additional maps. The user also gets a City Lens from the brand. The lens can be used to reveal an on-the-street view of what's around you with your camera's viewfinder. Instantly see all the cool, hidden places, like the cozy, local restaurants behind the big-brand tourist traps. And Nokia Mix Radio lets you listen to hundreds of playlists for free even when you are offline.
The handset has been designed to make it as user friendly in day-to-day life. Excellent photography capabilities, expandable memory and a big smart screen all at an affordable pricing make this the next big thing in the smart-phones market. Nokia Lumia 820 deals are really worth the wait and to watch out for.

On the Origin of Species by Sympatric Speciation
AbstractUnderstanding speciation is a fundamental biological problem. It is believed that many species originated through allopatric divergence in geographically isolated populations of the same ancestral species (1-3). In contrast, the possibility of sympatric speciation has often been dismissed, partly because of theoretical difficulties (2,3). Most previous models analyzing sympatric speciation concentrated on particular aspects of the problem while neglecting others (4-10). We present a model which integrates a novel combination of different features and shows that sympatric speciation is a likely outcome of competition for resources. We use explicit multilocus genetics to describe sexual reproduction in an individual-based model, and we consider the evolution of assortative mating depending either on the ecological character affecting intraspecific resource competition or on a selectively neutral marker trait. In both cases, evolution of assortative mating often leads to reproductive isolation between ecologically diverging subpopulations. When assortative mating depends on a marker trait, and is therefore not directly linked to resource competition, speciation occurs when genetic drift breaks the lineage equilibrium between marker and ecological trait. Our theory conforms well with mounting empirical evidence for the sympatric origin of many species (10-18).
