Nonprofits, 2014 is the Year of the Blog. Here's Why You Can't Afford to Wait Any Longer
Nonprofits, this is the year to start an amazing blog.
We can't afford to wait any longer—and today, more than ever, a blog is simply one of the best investments your organization can make.
Donors give us gifts. It's time to give one back. And blogging is the ultimate selfish gift—it benefits us as much as our readers.
But don't take my word for it. Read on.
How Nonprofit Blogging Can Help You Make a Huge Impact, Today
Let's say your nonprofit builds wells in Africa.
Your hope: that your small but substantial part in your organization translates into a big impact in the world, right?
To get more specific, your goal as an individual is probably either A) raising more money for your nonprofit, or B) developing awesome programs.
But after that, there are so many hoops to jump through to create real change. We do awesome work, but making change is hard when you're so disconnected.
Think about it. After you create a program or raise money, you've got to consider all the other factors:
- Figuring out distribution: Take your program to the next level via outreach and connection. Get the thing you made to the other side of the globe, or at least outside of your immediate community.
- Once you've connected with a potential community, you hope that your aid will get to the people who need it most. The rural communities with unsafe water. Who need education on sanitary drinking practices. Those who are impoverished.
- You hope that those folks will accept your aid as a gift, not an intrusion.
- You hope you'll avoid disrupting the positive forces in the local economy.
- You hope that the aid won't be intercepted (and squandered) by local governments without the capacity or motivation to distribute the aid properly.
- That your wells won't fall into disrepair after a year with no one who has the expertise nearby to fix them.
And that's just a start! Whew. I don't know about you, but I'm exhausted. Nonprofit work is hard.
There's a ton of risk. But the biggest frustration is a sense of being disconnected from the people we serve. Not knowing what or who is being affected and in what way. Just look at all those roadblocks!
But what if you could instantly connect? What if there was a way you could make a difference immediately? A difference that grows and affects more and more people over time, all while helping the bottom line, today?
You could start a blog.
Make This the Year of the Blog
Like great thank-you notes for your donors, a good blog is a gift that leaves the giver better than when they started.
Blogging is a gift. It's free. Anyone can stop by and read.
That's probably why you aren't doing it. "Where's the ROI??" some ask, quite reasonably.
But blogging is the ultimate selfish gift. It's as big a gift for YOU as it is for your donors.
Think of it this way: you already have a captive audience of hundreds, thousands or (if you're lucky) tens of thousands of donors who have indicated interest in your organization.
All donors divide into these three kinds of donors:
Donor #1: The True Believer
Who They Are: Of your donors, a certain percentage just gets it. They are the True Believers: your tribe, passionate people who volunteeer, donate regularly, tell their friends about you and read books and watch documentaries relevant to the cause. They already drink your delicious, life-giving Kool-Aid.
Why Blogging for Them Makes Life Awesome for You: These folks will read everything you write. The gift of blogging means so much to them. And it's a kind of insurance for you: trade a few hours for the ability to retain the LIFEBLOOD of your organization. These people tell all their friends about you, creating more of all three levels of donors we're talking about, multiplying your impact and funding. And the True Believers will share all your blog posts on social media with their whole network. Slam dunk!
Donor #2: The Casual Fan
Who They Are: The Casual Fans are the donors who make once-a-year, irregular donations or are casual fans of you. They might give when you ask, and your cause is something they are happy to chat about at a cocktail party, but isn't a cornerstone of their identity—even if giving to you makes them happy.
Why Blogging for Them Makes Life Awesome for You: Your blog is a gift to the Casual Fans because they'll have a better understanding of why they are awesome for giving to you, and a better supply of party anecdotes for when your cause comes up. They'll love you and the blog for both of these reasons. But more importantly, you will slowly and deviously convert them into cause-loving, Kool-Aid drinking True Believers, which is FANTASTIC because Casual Fans are the biggest source of unnecessary donor attrition. In other words, your blog keeps them from bleeding away from your cause, and transforms them into super donors. Booyah!
Donor #3: Reluctant Tagalongs
Who They Are: The Reluctant Tagalong is a one-time donor who couldn't tell you from any other random nonprofit off the street. They don't care about or understand your cause. Reluctant Tagalongs don't remember why they gave; most likely a friend guilted them into it because they owed him one.
(P.S. It's safe to assume that EVERYONE who visits your website for the first time starts out as a Reluctant Tagalong. They won't click on your Donate Now button – in fact, they are waiting to click the Back button on their browser, because they have no reason to care about you. Why would they? Unless, of course, you have a great, moving and complelling blog. Hmm… about that…)
Why Blogging for Them Makes Life Awesome for You: When Reluctant Tagalongs get their first email from you about your latest blog post, they'll say, "What the heck is this and why am I getting emails about it?" because they'll have forgotten they donated to you. Then they might read a few lines of your interesting, moving and often entertaining blog, smile and click to another page on your website. And next time, they'll definitely open your next email, maybe even if it's an appeal. Congratulations! You just earned a new Casual Fan! And the folks who didn't open your email or read the post at all weren't going to be interested in you ever anyway, so when you think about it, there's no downside! Heck yes!
It's starting to look like you'd be crazy NOT to blog!
Of course, this all only works if you…
Make Sure Your New Blog Isn't Terrible
The most important thing is that your shiny new nonprofit blog actually has to be a gift.
(If I could underline that last sentence three times, make it size 43 font and flashing red color, I totally would—except for it would look 100% like an infomercial.)
You can't phone it in. A blog is not just your "inbound marketing strategy." It's not "content." It's a precious gift from you to your donors and anyone else who wonders onto your website.
It's an invitation to be part of something that's exciting, important and not for everyone. Just for those special enough to get on board.
Thankfully, making sure your blog isn't terrible and IS a gift doesn't take a genius. It just takes a little time and effort. Here are seven steps to a blog that isn't terrible:
- Make it About Them: Don't talk about yourself. Use the word "You," and mercilessly delete the word "We." It's a gift for THEM. Talk about THEM. Your donors and supporters are amazing! Tell them!
- Kill Your Jargon: Don't use any words a normal person wouldn't use. Kill nonprofit-speak. Don't talk about game changing innovative programs and disruption and blah blah blah. Talk about real people. Pretend you're at a coffee shop with a friend. Read it out loud. Does it sound human? That's what makes a blog sparkle.
- Tell Stories: The fastest way to be interesting, emotional and compelling is to tell real stories about real people. You don't have to use names or disclose personal details: you can create composite people and still tell a real story. But show us and tell us a story, because abstraction is boring!
- Use Pictures: Pictures (and video if you can) are amazing at engaging people. There's something about putting a face to a name and a story that just lights humans up and makes us more generous. Not stock photos. Real photos.
- Entertain: The biggest crime of a blog is boring the reader. Be fun!
- Call Them to Action: Don't waste the opportunity to deepen your relationship. Ask them to join your email list (with a link to where they can)! Tell them they can go to a free event in their area! Let them know why volunteering for you is super fun, and what kind of folks you need! Ask them to share a story in the comments! Get them involved!
- Post Regularly: And by "regularly," I mean 3-4 times a month, once a week. You're busy. But once a week shows that you are active, involved and doing exciting work. And you're posting not so frequently that you run out of interesting things to say.
Donors Give Us Gifts. It's Time to Give One Back
The unselfish gift, the generous effort — it actually ends up being the best thing for us, the givers.
Selfishly, we benefit most from giving back. From practicing generosity. From learning how to talk about our cause simply, compellingly and often.
We benefit from having a group of connected followers. From the joy and sense of accomplishment and encouragement that comes when you see a small following of True Believers come and talk about something they care about—you.
We benefit the ability to test our talking points with a low-pressure audience.
And when you care for and tender and cultivate a garden, don't be surprised that it might, one day, grow fruit. More donations. More traffic. More fans.
The blog, the gift for your donors, becomes a sign to the outside world. You're all-in. You can be trusted.
You are real and here and have something important to say.
At the end of the day, it comes down to this:
Donors give us gifts. It's time to give one back.
Make 2014 the year you start a remarkable blog.
Thanks for reading this blog post! I bet your donors want to read one too, but by YOU. What do you think? Let me know in the comments below.

I couldn't agree more, blogs are a vital way to create conversation with donors and keep them up to date on how their donations are being used. Constant communication is a vital part of any business nowadays, but an especially important part of nonprofit donor management
Agreed, Kirsten. And blogging is a great way to force yourself to really communicate, not just play lip service to communication by setting up a social media account or two. If you you set up a blog but aren't taking the time to offer an awesome gift, it's obvious. 😉
Great post. I've been telling nonprofits to get a blog for the entire past year. It's the absolute best way to create an ongoing conversation with folks that not only compels and inspires but also makes it easy for folks to stay connected to you. No one visits websites over and over. But spoon feeding is another matter, provided you're delivering up truly tasty morsels that folks can't resist. As with anything else, simply slapping up a blog won't do it. There's a right way and a wrong way. Anything worth doing is worth doing right.
What's especially interesting to me is that even IF none of those benefits existed, the time I spend sitting and thinking hard about how to articulate the mission and how to get into my audience's head always leads to hugely valuable insights for me. My ideas are rarely as brilliant and compelling as I THINK they are in my head – putting them on paper forces me to wrestle with that and improve.
Thanks for stopping by, Claire (and for the work that you do) – keep fighting the good fight!

I completely agree about assuming that anyone who visits a website is looking to click the back button, unless you engage them. I also see the huge potential in the casual fans as well, especially if you send out regular emails or add them to blog notifications. Moreover, the easiest way to create a wide fan base is to eliminate the jargon so that you can also attract the people who would otherwise never visit your site or be turned off by the words; they don't have time to waste looking up words.

So glad I came across your blog Mark! I work with nonprofits all the time and they rarely blog. They're enthusiastic storytellers day in and day out but rarely record or write about their conversations. Powerful motivators who need to get blogging.
[…] Did you know that 70% of visitors to the average website never visit again? Done well, a blog drives traffic to you naturally… brings folks back for more… and even gets folks to share stuff you post on your blog with their own networks. It's a hugely powerful tool for finding and engaging with people – your donors and potential supporters – and I'm not the only one who thinks so. […]
Really nice. As Jennifer says nonprofits are storytellers and rarely blog. I too work with a charitable trust.We too does storytelling but not blogging. This help us to find more impact s with blogging. Thank You.

The Directorate of Carabineers and Rural Security of the National Police of Colombia supervises the Mounted Police, or Carabineros Corps, a rural paramilitary police force resulting from the 1993 reform to patrol and maintain public order in conflict zones and in the national parks. Despite its reestablishment in 1993, the Carabineros Corps is actually Colombia's oldest police force, created by a law of May 18, 1841. Beginning in 1936, a Chilean mission helped to professionalize the corps.
The Carabineros carry out counterinsurgency missions, frequently in conjunction with army units. Headquartered at the department and national territory capitals, the Carabineros are maintained in squadrons that were separate from those of the regular police; they wore distinctive uniforms and often traveled as mounted units.
In 2006 there were 9,800 Carabineros officers, located principally in rural areas and trained in irregular conflict and in the rescue of hostages.
Units of the Mobile Carabinier Squadrons (EMCAR), operating in 120-member squadrons, were formed in 2004 as a part of President Álvaro Uribe's Democratic Security and Defense Policy (usually referred to as Democratic Security Policy) to provide extra support for police activities in conflict areas. Special Carabineros Corps units also provide backup to urban police during public events or civil protests.[1]

I have to create a WCF 4.0 (VS 2010) service (
MyWCFService) which is both service (consumed from MS Dynamics AX) and client (will consume some external XML web service).
So basically the flow is:
MS Dynamics AX will call MyWCFService
MyWCFService call external XML web service
External XML web service return result to MyWCFService
MyWCFService return result to MS Dynamics AX
Are there some special consideration concerning this scenario which I should be aware of?
What about asynchronously consuming, should the client of my
MyWCFService and the service itself make asynchronously calls?
Can you point me to some documentation which review/discuss this "middle man" service pattern?

|The gods of the Disc have never bothered much about judging the souls of the dead, and so people only go to hell if that's where they believe, in their deepest heart, that they deserve to go. Which they won't do if they don't know about it. This explains why it is so important to shoot missionaries on sight.

This expansion introduces trade goods into cities. When a city is completed, the person collects all goods inside the city (this person who completes the city may not be the same person who controls a city -- this introduces incentive to complete an opponent's city.) The person who had a majority of one of the three trade goods collects 10 extra points at the end of the game, which may give a 30 point swing at the end.
A builder is also introduced. A builder is placed on either a city or a road that you already control. When you add a tile to this road or city, you get to take an extra turn (maximum of one extra turn.) This can really help complete a city.
Finally, a farmer is introduced; it's placed in a field you already control and all fields are worth a puny extra point. (So at the end of the game a city would score 5 points instead of 4.) This is the single worst addition to the game in both expansions, as it has little effect on the game. But the rest of the game is good.
There are a lot of new city tiles, many of them "strange" in the way they cut off cities and fields. It's worth playing. A bag is included for storing tiles which solves the problem of the 1st expansion having slightly different colored backs. (Something I didn't notice until pointed out to me.)
The variations on the game have already been described well by other reviewers, so I'll limit my comments to what makes the expansion so interesting:
-the trade goods give players an incentive to complete other players' cities; in other versions of the game, players often avoid other players's cities because they don't want to expand the city (adding to the city's value) of close the city (causing the city to be scored).
-in addition ot being a fun twist, the builder is also a great way of speading up the game. I think it actually took us less time to play with this expansion despite learning new rules and adding tiles.
If you own Carcassone, you should own this expansion.
The first are the trade goods, which are included in city tiles. They are granted to the person who plays the last tile to complete the city, which creates incentive to finish a city you otherwise have no stake in. At the end of the game, the player with the most of a given trade good gets 10 points; with 3 trade goods, this can be a pretty big swing.
The second is the builder piece. This piece must be added to a city or road you already control, and lets you take an extra turn in the future when you again add to that city or road. This gives you something to play when adding on to your cities, and also means that cities with the 3x piece from the first expansion are more likely to finish; making the 3x pieces a valuable addition to a city, instead of a disaster.
The third is the pig piece. This piece must be added to a farm you already control, and boosts the values of any completed cities it is next to from 4 to 5 for you alone. I disagree with the other (only other, at this time) reviewer that this piece is useless; I've often found that a well-placed pig can gain 5 or more points, and is generally played on a turn when you would not otherwise be playing a piece. This turns a 0 point turn (or perhaps 1 or 2) into a 5 point turn (or 6 or 7!), which is always welcome, in my mind.
The new pieces added are often unusually formed cities and odd constructs with roads and cities and so forth; mostly they will make completing cities harder (but only the ones with trade goods in them) and provide more opportunity to isolate farms.
While I don't consider this expansion as a "must have" like the first one (Carcassonne plays much better with the first expansion than without it), it is a lot of fun, and adds a few more tweaks to the game that are generally welcome.
The main thing you have to keep an eye out for is the chance to get an extra turn. With the new special figure, the builder, you can actually place 2 tiles on your turn if you place a tile that contributes to the expansion of a road or castle. This requires the previous placement of said figure and trying not to forget that you can take advantage of that chance. There are also tiles with special markers, that when completed, give you icons representing some trade goods. If you manage to get the most of them, up to 30 extra points can be yours at the end of the game.
The last figure, a little pig, can increase the value of farms by a point. Not exactly a game changer, but it might separate a few close games.
All in all, I like this expansion, even if it does complicate things a bit, especially for new players or absent minded ones. Recommended for varying up the game or for gamers that like having as many options as possible.

Developer Services
Water companies are playing their part in the development of performance standards to help speed up the building of new homes in the UK.
Water UK produced a set of standards that developers and others can expect from water companies in relation to the provision of infrastructure for housing development. Since July 2015 Water UK has been reporting on levels of services achieved.
Water UK and its member companies worked with developers and their representative organisations to produce guidelines and best practice to ensure that the water and sewerage infrastructure needed for modern homes is provided efficiently.
The water industry is continuing to play its part in the delivery of new homes in the UK by maintaining its high standards of services to developers.
Discussions have been taking place within a Defra-convened task and finish group about a draft set of charging rules that Ofwat has prepared. The overall approach of the...

Tribute band creates Pink Floyd Experience
Browse the archive Subscribe via iTunes
Friday, Sept. 21, 2007
Tom Quinn realizes it's not as good as the real deal.
But he calls his Pink Floyd Experience "the next best thing to being at a Pink Floyd concert."
The San Diego-based tribute band - complete with a laser light show, surround-sound speakers and the signature flying pig - comes to the Lied Center for a show at 7:30 tonight.
In this week's Pulse Podcast, guitarist and founder Quinn talks about his appreciation for Pink Floyd, his band's attempt to replicate the music and how Floyd is catching on with the younger set.
Also, hear several songs, including "Wish You Were Here," "Money," "Comfortably Numb" and "Time."
After that, we'll tell you about some of the other events going on in the Lawrence in the next few days in our weekly Best Bets feature.

Just a head's up from us over at the Lied Center. The show is at 7:30 p.m., not 7 p.m. We're gonna have a great time! And there are still tickets available! They're $40 for adults, $20 for children and local students with ID. We'll have the ticket office open all day so you can still get involved!
Centrist 8 years, 10 months ago
No offense to the band, I like that you're doing this. But the cost is .. prohibitive. I was going to go, until I saw that it was $40 a ticket. I don't think it's worth that to see a cover band. If it was, say $15 or $20, I would've gone. I don't care how many lights, lasers or pigs they have, they are not the Floyd. For $40, you can see several (original) bands at once in KC.
iancahir 8 years, 10 months ago
If you have a question about the size, scope and reality of the show, check out the group's Web site. The thing about it is that it's not about a cover band. The band plays, and they are great, but this show is about the entire experience. The lights and the multimedia (and the huge sound) bring you into that concert experience that hasn't existed since the band split.
If this were just a cover band, we wouldn't have it. This is a LOT more. And we hope to see you all tonight!
Lenette Hamm 8 years, 10 months ago
Agreed!! Paid about that to see the REAL deal at Arrowhead some years ago. I'd rather spend the money seeing an original band that a fake anytime... no matter how good they may be.
Jeff Rice 8 years, 10 months ago
WOW. I wish I would have known about this sooner. Too bad I'm committed elsewhere. I also believe $40 is waaaay to much to see this.
motomom 8 years, 10 months ago
my family gave me tickets to go for my birthday and i am sooooo excited. i will let ya'll know how it was.........i am excited to take my kids. even though it is not the real thing, i am thankful to get just a taste.
Ken Miller 8 years, 10 months ago
Two hits of acid before tonight's show and you'll swear David Gilmour was riding that flying pig.
Mkh 8 years, 10 months ago
You should probably take three hits just to be safe oscar. I wanna go check this out, especially the light show, but for $40 bucks they better be playing all of 'Animals' and most of 'Meddle'
ranger73 8 years, 10 months ago
Gosh- When did all the stoners get so tight?
Linda Aikins 8 years, 10 months ago
WOW!!! I gladly paid $40 for a ticket - in fact I'm taking my girl bud! After all, when will the REAL Pink Floyd tour again? Heck - it costs $20 to go to the theater to see a mediocre movie.
I guess it's about priorities and taste, and to me, the Pink has mine! I will go to no other concerts this decade, real band or not.
iancahir 8 years, 10 months ago
Hi all,
They're finishing up the stage set, and let me tell you, this is WAY more than just a cover band. The setup is even bigger than I expected. I saw the Australian Pink Floyd on PBS the other night. These guys are on par, believe me. Check out our site, lied.ku.edu for a podcast we did with Tom Quinn. There's also some video of the show on our home page (with quiet sound if you're at work).
And remember, the adult full price is $40. There are also discounts available. Check out the Web site or call 864-2787 and we'll help you get the right price ticket for you!

Linda Aikins 8 years, 10 months ago
We are very excited to see it too. Thanks for the updates, ian!
Centrist 8 years, 10 months ago
Saw the real Floyd (minus Roger Waters, but we didn't miss him, and still don't) in Australia, Feb 11, 1988 at Thebarton Oval in Adelaide, home of the SANFL Eagles. I still have my ticket stub from the gig. Wish I could find a (video) bootleg of that show somewhere. Fantastic show, of course. Wasn't stoned on anything, either!!
Have seen a couple of Floyd cover bands since. They're good, but NOWHERE near the original. "Think Floyd" were good, "Floyd Time" almost as good. Never saw any others.
Sorry, Lied Center - $40 is still too much. And I can't get a discount.
Log - how can you spot a Floydian? g
riverdrifter 8 years, 10 months ago
Floydians, unlike Deadheads, are tougher to spot, methinks. If you've seen Floyd (or whomever) in the flesh, remakes do not compute. So:
If I were alone I would cry And if I were with you I'd be home and dry And if I go insane Will you still let me join in with the game?
If I were a swan I'd be gone If I were a train I'd be late again If I were a good man I'd talk with you more often than I do.
tangential_reasoners_anonymous 8 years, 10 months ago
One word; half the price: Pulse
(Oh sure, it's a smaller "venue," but it's authentic.)
Baille 8 years, 10 months ago
They were very good. Made for a great night. Money well spent.

Pywacket says: "It's kind of like this: what if Picasso, instead of developing his own personal masterpieces and techniques, had meticulously copied the works of, say, Da Vinci, and could reproduce works such as La Gioconda (Mona Lisa), to utter perfection."
Hmm... maybe he could have avoided that "blue" period, altogether.
Pywacket says: "For my money, I'd rather have a Da Vinci print than a "faux" Da Vinci that was painted by someone else-even if that someone else had had the talents of Picasso."
... hey, not to mention the coveted velvet Elvis....
Pywacket says: "I know:snobbery and all."
Right there with ya, on all counts-David raging in the background.

Anyone got a setlist from last night?

Hi! My name is
I am Please select Species from evansville, IN
Nicknames: El, Boo Boo
Age: 15 years old
Gender: M
Coat: short haired
Education: I have outlived everyone's expectations and still going strong.
My favorite tricks and treats are: Gives Mom sandpaper kisses and I swat at my human if she doesn't pet me as much as I think she should. I used to sit out in the rain and meow for Mom,her neighbors would call and tell her cause she couldn't hear me. She'd come out and dry me off put me in my new dry bed. After 3 times of doing this she said thats it, picked me up and carried me inside to my furever home. and Tuna juice ACOTD 10-17-2009
Where I hang out: Computer room with mom and my bed
My favorite grubs: Tuna juice and kitten chow and anything I want, especially smoked turkey.
My pet peeves: When she moves my water dish.
What I love about my owners: Absolutely everything, she gave me unconditional love, warm dry home and plenty of food to eat. She takes very good care of me giving me my meds and everything. P.S. Elvis' heart gave out and he passed over the rainbow bridge today with a piece of my heart. I had already written this,so as a tribute to my gentle giant, I am posting this so everyone gets to know a little about him. I am very blessed that he let me spend the last year of his life with him. He was so brave and I miss him terribly. DEAREST MOM, To have loved and then said farewell is better than to have never loved at all. For all of the times that you stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you. For the care that you gave to me so unselfishly. For all of these things I am grateful and thankful. I ask that you grieve not for the loss but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each other's lives. My life was fuller because you were there, not as owner, but as my friend. Today, I am as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures. I can run, jump and play and do all of the things that I did in my youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints and no regrets and no aging. We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever. You live in our hearts as we do in yours. Companions such as you are very rare and unique. Don't hold the love that you have within yourself. Give it to another like me and then I will live forever. For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are. Love, Your Boo, Boo
My cat hobbies: Mom's lap, lay & sleep on her shoulder so relaxed he snored,sitting atop the hope chest on my phone books looking outside.
Pet motto: My cat is an angel from heaven above-with sandpaper kisses and a heart full of love.

I was feral and mom trapped, neutered and gave me all my shots and let me go. After about 2 yrs. I finally came back,after I had forgiven her,as I knew where to go for food. After alot of bites and scratches I finally let Mom pet me, two weeks later I was inside. She took me to the Vet. and found out I was positive with FIV and congestive heart failure. I had 11 teeth pulled due to the disease but mom took me home anyway, loved me and gave me baby food and water and a nice warm bed, I am so happy for the first time in my life and know I'm loved. My saddest regret is not being able to have more time with Mom and meeting my other feline housemates, as I am isolated in Mom's computer room. She spends alot of time with me, brushing and loving on me. I have learned to give Mom sandpaper kisses and she loves it, she kisses me all the time purrrr. I feel like a kitten again especially when she gave me Kitten Chow since I have never had it. Two paws up for Mom!! Please say a prayer for me and I will for you also, my furry friends. Meowwww(thankyo- u)

If DeGale wants a shot at Froch then he has to earn it. At the moment he hasn't done enough to deserve that fight.

DeGale seemed to put himself up against the ropes in his last few fights, thats would be suicide agaisnt someone like Froch. That said, that fight isn't going to happen anytime soon as DeGale isn't even on Froch's radar at present.
That said, im looking forward to seeing DeGale over the next 18 months. Hes been rebuilding abit since his defeat to Groves, but he's a good fighter IMO and id love to see a DeGale Vs Groves rematch somewhere down the line.

But personally i don't think he'll develop style/skill/strength wise too much more from what he is now, ultimately though he thinks his defense is better than what it really is, that'll **** him over again one day, watch.

I think his opposition has actually improved but the style is better suited for him, if that makes any sense... So hes fighting better guys but they seem to be come forward pressure guys which suits his style so i can see where you are coming from.
I do also think that Froch/Ward would batter him atm, but he isnt calling him out now. He said he wants to eventually fight him... which i see as normal comment to make for a guy on the way up.

I suspect he might have a decent beard though, that'll help. But thats where supreme fitness comes in, i feel he hasnt got that now, and in future? Well its not like he's gong to be triple even double as fit as he is now, ever.
And in his last 3-4 fights has seemed 'lazy' in periods, i don't think he's 'being clever and boxing and ****" in these periods, he's desperately trying to knick a breather it visually seems if you watch his face, i reckon he is a "gasser" if such term exists. i'm mad.

Anywho Farias next should be a good test for him, if he gets through, fights against established top 10 guys needs to happen (talking Abraham, Bika, Rodriguez, Stieglitz), then (should he come through) prospect fights against guys on the verge of challenging for titles (Stevenson or Oosthuizen), then call out titlists. He gets great exposure now on C5 so getting the lesser known guys to fight him shouldnt be a problem.

Just because a guy sits on the ropes against a certain type of opponent doesn't necessarily mean that he's going to do the same exact thing in all of his future fights.The guy's that he's been doing that against are boxers who's power he obviously doesn't respect, and he's not been doing bad by sitting and countering off the ropes, either.Think he works better at the centre of the ring and at range, but, hey, it's always nice to have some extra dimensions to your game.
He's still a better talent than Groves from what I've seen.

Single Trip or Annual Multi-Trip Insurance?
As the name implies, Single Trip Insurance gives you coverage for a one-off holiday; however, if you plan to take many trips per year, Multi-Trip Insurance could be a better option for your needs and avoids you going through the trouble and cost of taking out a new single trip insurance every time you go away over a 12 month period.

Long Stay Travel Insurance
Planning an extended holiday? Whether you are embarking on a round-the-world trip or taking a year or more to visit family, Staysure offers tailor-made long term travel insurance for anything from 3 to 18 months through its Long Stay Travel Insurance, ideal for everyone up to 75 years of age.
We cover pre-existing medical conditions
Staysure's policies not only cover people with a clean bill of health, they also cover many pre-existing medical conditions. Thanks to a simplified screening process, travel insurance with medical conditions covered, can be quick and easy to arrange.
Our tailor-made travel insurance with medical conditions policies are second-to-none and give you the flexibility and security you need when you go on your travels.
Your tailor-made policy
Upgrades - building you the perfect policy!
Whichever type of protection you choose, you have more options: to tailor your policy still further if you so wish. These additional cover options insure you for such things as winter sports, unexpected accommodation costs, extended travel delays, missed departures, legal cover, golf equipment and lots more, and may be well worth paying a little extra for.
Our travel insurance specialists will inform and advise you on all upgrades, carefully taking into account your particular travel plans and the levels of insurance you are looking for.
Basic or Comprehensive Insurance?
You can purchase your insurance as either a Basic or a Comprehensive insurance policy, which enables you to choose the level of cover you need. Basic is a great value option if you are looking for a standard policy which covers you for medical emergencies and repatriation, wherever you happen to be travelling.
If you want a bit more from your cover, you could find Comprehensive cover is a better choice. Comprehensive insurance gives you complete peace of mind so you'll be safe in the knowledge that you have the highest level of protection when you are on your holidays.
Basic Travel insurance covers medical emergencies and repatriation, up to £5m and baggage claims, up to £300. It includes cover for cancellation, curtailment and trip interruption of up to £1,000 should you need to cancel or interrupt your trip unexpectedly.

"We booked a holiday to Greece and checked with our insurance company about travel insurance. They advised me only people up to the age of 65 can be insured.

This was due to the customer reviews and the fact that Staysure gave me an instant quote at the right price and perfect insurance package for all age groups. I will be without a doubt recommending Staysure to friends and will definitely be using this insurance company again."

Thank you Mikhail for stepping up to the plate.
I am so happy with the services we received from Mikhail. My son had a trigonometry test coming up in a couple of days. He was lost. I sent out messages to several tutors. Mikhael contacted us.

My son did well on his test and probably would had flunked without Mikhail's help. Mikhail focused him. He went to the root of his trigonometry issues and helped. He drilled my son on the basics that he needed in order to pass the test. He didn't have him memorize; he had him learn.

Posted on 08/18/2004 12:42:01 PM PDT by HAL9000
Iran Warns Of Preemptive Strike To Prevent Attack On Nuclear Sites
DOHA, Aug 18 (AFP) - Iranian Defense Minister Ali Shamkhani warned Wednesday that Iran might launch a preemptive strike against US forces in the region to prevent an attack on its nuclear facilities.
"We will not sit (with arms folded) to wait for what others will do to us. Some military commanders in Iran are convinced that preventive operations which the Americans talk about are not their monopoly," Shamkhani told Al-Jazeera TV when asked if Iran would respond to an American attack on its nuclear facilities.
"America is not the only one present in the region. We are also present, from Khost to Kandahar in Afghanistan; we are present in the Gulf and we can be present in Iraq," said Shamkhani, speaking in Farsi to the Arabic-language news channel through an interpreter.
"The US military presence (in Iraq) will not become an element of strength (for Washington) at our expense. The opposite is true, because their forces would turn into a hostage" in Iranian hands in the event of an attack, he said.
Shamkhani, who was asked about the possibility of an American or Israeli strike against Iran`s atomic power plant in Bushehr, added: "We will consider any strike against our nuclear installations as an attack on Iran as a whole, and we will retaliate with all our strength.
"Where Israel is concerned, we have no doubt that it is an evil entity, and it will not be able to launch any military operation without an American green light. You cannot separate the two."
A commander of Iran`s elite Revolutionary Guards was quoted in the Iranian press earlier Wednesday as saying that Tehran would strike the Israeli reactor at Dimona if Israel attacks the Islamic republic`s own burgeoning nuclear facilities.
"If Israel fires one missile at Bushehr atomic power plant, it should permanently forget about Dimona nuclear center, where it produces and keeps its nuclear weapons, and Israel would be responsible for the terrifying consequence of this move," General Mohammad Baqer Zolqadr warned.
Iran`s controversial bid to generate nuclear power at its plant being built at Bushehr is seen by arch-enemies Israel and the United States as a cover for nuclear weapons development.
The latest comments mark an escalation in an exchange of threats between Israel and Iran in recent weeks, leading to speculation that there may be a repeat of Israel`s strike against Iraqi nuclear facilities at Osirak in 1981.
Iran insists that its nuclear intentions are peaceful, while pointing at its enemy`s alleged nuclear arsenal, which Israel neither confirms nor denies possessing.
Dimona, in the Negev desert, is allegedly where Israel produces weapons-grade plutonium for its estimated 200 nuclear warheads.
I hope it is the policy of the US that Iran will never be allowed to possess nuclear weapons
It better be.
Keep talking, raghead.
Hey Mullah? Don't think so.
Hey Mullah? Don't think so.
Lets get it over with.
Do you think there's any chance at all that we'll be able to misdirect Iran into trying to invade Iraq?
Ali Shamkhani sure sounds a lot like Baghdad Bob. I think Israel would wipe Iran off the map if attacked.
Yo, Shamkhani. This MOAB's for you.
"Bring it on..."
Provide Israel with the U.S. IFF codes that would be valid for 6 hours.
I dare you!
I double dare you!
I double dog dare you!
Sorry, but I believe that they already made their preemptive strike when their goons crossed into Iraq and attacked our troops...OVER A YEAR AGO DURING THE INVASION!
What rubbish! Even this mullah-tool knows that an attack on American forces is the one thing that would guarantee a strike against Iranian nuclear facilities. He is playing to the mob in the street.
Well, okay. But just to be sure, maybe we should make them cross their heart and hope to die.
They're sweating. This was part of the reason why we invaded Iraq in the first place.
Hello Mullah. Hello Fatwah.
Bomb Iran with... Frank Sinatra
(all I could think of)
ref your post #7- that would be a neat trick. how do we do it? (not saying it cant be done!)
The Capt.
Ha..... he must be putting vodka in his chai. If they stuck American troops, Tehran would be a parking lot.
Whatever it takes. Iran must be stopped at all costs.
What about the legions of young people who are so disgusted by the revolutionary regime in Iran?
We should be actively supporting efforts to destroy the ayatollahs from within.
Bring it on!
John Kerry said he would retaliate against any attack.
Don't sing it....BRING IT!!!
Raghead says blah, blah, blah...
Bring it on mullah boys!
How about a MOAB with Barbequed Pork Rinds?
I know, that was very un PC.
If Iran openly tries to strike US troops, not only will their attack be crushed, not only will Bushehr cease to exist, but the democracy movement will erase the theocracy.
I wish it weren't just hot air, I wish they were truly this stupid, but they aren't.
The ultimate ZOT will be upon them!
Keep spouting off boys and we'll rock and rolla your ayatollah.
I smell fear in the enemy. They are definitely nervous, as they should be.
They are letting it all hang out. Wow! All I can say is BRING IT ON! Its about time we got out of this spitting match and got down to business. One thing is certain, a preemptive strike by Iran would take a lot of political heat off of Bush for what is inevitable. Obviously the Iranians have done the math as well.
This Shamkhani guy must be heavily invested in oil futures. Either that or he got in the game late.
It would seem that war between the US and Iran is inevitable. The only question is when. No doubt our military and Iran's military already have plans, defensive and offensive. The behind the scenes diplomacy must be getting rather intense. The Russians are backing the Iranians in this affair. How can Israel allow a terrorist state such as Iran get their hands on assymetric weapons? Tel Aviv will be vaporized. The pressure between Israel and the US must be rather intense. The only question in my mind is who will act first, and how the remainder of the significant nations will respond. We may soon be watching the first nuclear war. God help us.
It's already happening. Iran has been sending insurgents and materials into Iraq to keep us there and we've been grinding them up.
A pre-emptive strike against us would, I would think, not be unwelcome. It would certainly open for us the opportunity to respond.
Playing hardball or just bluffing ?
Well, if we do take out their nuclear facilities, it won't be with ground troops. We'll take it out with lots and lots of 'death from above.'
But any pre-emptive attack would just give us a grand excuse for a full-scale follow-up.
That mushroom cloud collage kicks ass.
Yeah, right. There is a zero percent chance of this happening.
We should be actively supporting efforts to destroy the ayatollahs from within.
I assure you we are.
Where are Vince Vance & the Valiants when we need them? Sounds to me like it is time to sing along with Bomb Iran.

Whoa, watch it. You might hurt someone's feelings. Heaven help you if you ever write a book...
Time for Plan "R"....
(insert picture of Slim Pickins as Maj Kong)
Iran has 4 divisions on the Iraqi border. I don't know how many troops that equals but its a bunch.
As the Marines would say, lets "get some". Funny how the Iranians think they can threaten us; note to Iran: Look at Iraq - if you dont shut your mouth you could be next.
