Closet London
Dressed for Success With Targeted Commerce MarketingAll Stories
The Goal
- Use email to grow online business.
- Trigger unique messages based on past purchases.
The Approach
- Create a three-part welcome series.
- Trigger re-engagement campaigns based on conversions.
- Segment messages based on order history.
The Result
- Dramatic increases in list growth and email-generated revenue.
When you're new to ecommerce, building a client database is the first task. Once you get that on track, you can dig into the nitty gritty of segmentation and personalisation – and that's where the real rewards come in. When Closet implemented a personalised email strategy, they converted messages to sales 50 times more than when they started.
The established wholesale and concessions womenswear brand decided to diversify into online three years ago. With help from ecommerce agency One Creations, Closet built its email marketing strategy. In the early days, a full-fledged email marketing tool wasn't required. "We just went with an entry-level platform and started collecting email addresses. As the list grew, we sent regular emails to all customers. But when you do that you get a very low conversion rate," says Lucy Fernandez, ecommerce executive at Closet.
Changing Needs as Ecommerce Grows
Closet knew it could do more with its subscriber database. "We realised we could harness much higher levels of revenue and conversion by using segmentation and automation," says Fernandez.
The Bronto Marketing Platform was an obvious choice for Closet. "When compared to other platforms, Bronto is ahead of its time," says Fernandez. "The drag and drop email editor is very easy to use, which was important for us as a small team. We also liked the scalability of the platform. We don't want our further growth to be bound by technology limitations," she says.
A Better Welcome Than Ever
The integration of the new email platform with the Magento ecommerce platform has helped Closet tightly target its messaging to customers – whether that's more blogger type content to repeat customers or bestseller lists to one-time shoppers.
Initial focus was on expanding the welcome email into a series. "Previously we had sent a thank you email with a 10% off code to customers who signed up to the newsletter," says Fernandez.
"Being able to personalise and target our customers' preferences will keep them coming back."
"Now, new subscribers get a second email introducing them to our social channel, and then a third showcasing our signature styles. If they still don't convert, we send them a reminder." The welcome series has success rates that speak for themselves. "The conversion rate is 35 times higher than the previous welcome email and revenue is up 2900%," she says.
Segmenting to Personalise
Closet also divided the database into a number of segments – including one-time, repeat, loyal, at-risk and dormant customers.
"We created automated workflows for all segments. Now, as soon as a customer drops into the 'at-risk' category, we send her an email update of the latest collection. If after 14 days she hasn't converted, we send her a 15% discount and invite her to make another purchase," says Fernandez. "We have also started to create segments for people who have bought specific types of clothing – for example sending an email to customers who had bought body con style dresses recently," says Fernandez.
Targeting with What the Shopper Wants
The ability to segment the database has not only helped retain loyal spenders, it has enabled Closet to learn much more about its customers and how they interact with the brand.
"We were able to recoup the contract costs within just four months."
"By segmenting customers and tailoring the content we get a much higher conversion rate. We increased our list size two and half times and conversions are 50 times higher," says Fernandez. "We were also able to recoup the contract costs within just four months."
"For our customer base, tailored content is akin to having their own personal stylist. Every woman has her unique style – for example, someone who will buy black dresses may not buy a floral dress. Being able to identify and target our customers' preferences will keep them coming back," she says.

Using Instagram to Promote your Product
Have a product that you want to promote and sell? Having issues finding the proper customers and clientele? Well look no further. Let us introduce you to a guide on how to use Instagram to promote and sell your products with ease!
It's a common practice these days. Almost every seller turns to social media to promote their product as it is an easy way to get in touch with a lot of people. The same can be said for the buyers, if they see an item they like on social media. they mostly end up buying it. As Instagram today has more than 300 million monthly users, it's the best place to advertise and promote your product.
Without further ado, let's get started!
1.Setting up a Professional business account
First and foremost, you need an account to promote your product. Setting up an account on Instagram is child's play and even a 10-year-old can do it but here's where you need to be careful. The account should have nothing to do with your personal life and should solely be used for the promotion and advertisement of your product. It'll leave a bad impression if you end up showing buyers your personal pictures and stories so stay away from that!
The next thing you should focus on is your account name and account picture. These two things leave a strong impression on the buyers so choose them wisely. Choose a professional and consistent name which is closely related to the product you are promoting. Same goes for the account picture. It should be something that perfectly portrays your product and attract followers.
Instagram gives the user an option to write a bio about themselves. This is what comes next for you. Find some catchy phrases and words related to your product which will impress the followers. You can add a link to your website in the bio, so be sure to do that at the end of your bio.
Make sure your profile doesn't seem like you are forcibly trying to sell. Focus on the aesthetics. Keep it simple and elegant.
2.The content you need to share
"Photography is the story I fail to put into words." — Destin Sparks
Instagram is all about pictures and photography, so the next thing we'll be tackling is the type of pictures you should be adding to your business account. Most of the users on Instagram judge an account by the type of material i.e. pictures that the account holds. Adding professional and creative pictures of your product is one way to gather a large number of followers, leading to better promotion and purchasing of your product. Try to add colorful and vibrant pictures which can easily attract a large number of followers.
Some technical advice which you should keep in mind about Instagram is that it automatically alters with the resolution and makes your pictures square, which may result in the loss of some of the finer details you've added to the picture. Make sure to design your picture in such a way that it can be shown off completely after uploading to Instagram. Instagram also includes some built-in tools for editing your Images, use these wisely.
3.How to gain followers
Adding pictures to your account is one thing but getting people to actually reach and see these pictures is another. Let's see how to gather up followers.
Hashtags is a good way to keep your posts on top and reach a lot of followers easily. Try adding hashtags which are closely related to your product. This will keep your posts close to others in the same category and will easily show up if someone searches for the specific category. Set a unique hashtag which the buyers can use when they purchase your product.
Another great way to rile up followers is to offer sales and promotions. Most people will definitely check out your product if it has a 50% off tag on it. If people end up buying your product and are totally satisfied with the purchase, you can encourage them to give you a review by adding a picture of the product in use. Share this picture on your profile and it will make it easier for other people to view and purchase your product.
4.Keep your customers happy
The next step after gathering followers is to keep these followers happy. A happy customer is a loyal customer. Let's look at some stuff which will make the customers purchase again.
Captions is what you should focus on. Captions are like your bio but they are different for each picture you add to your business profile. If you can focus on the wording and write a unique caption, you'll reach out to most of your followers and more views means a better chance of selling your product.
Another great way to keep your customers/followers happy is to arrange different contests and giveaways. Choose an item among your products and add eye catching pictures of that product. Encourage your followers to share the pictures as much as they can which will help in gathering up all your followers and will invite new followers as well. Choose a winner at the end and try to do another giveaway in the future.
5.Keep growing!
All these steps require a lot of time, patience and hard work but you'll only continue to grow once you've set up your business profile and have gathered a decent number of followers.
An easy way to keep growing is being consistent, set a proper schedule for your profile and give it time regularly. Post consistently and keep your followers engaged. Work out the timing at which your followers are mostly active and try to be active at that time to get better responses. Find valuable customers and give them extra benefits to ensure their loyalty.
Keep a close eye on your media. For example, see if a certain type or trend is more popular among the followers. Give more time to products related to these trends as they will attract more followers. Set different points and measure your growth and success after each point.
Keep this up and your product will be famous in no time.

University at Buffalo wrestler Corey Hollister thought nothing of getting his head hit during a wrestling practice last spring.
"I went in for a shot and was hit in the head by my partner's knee," Hollister said about the late-season injury.
But minutes later, Hollister was hit in the head a second time. And it would be six months before he felt like himself again.
Hollister was sent to John Leddy, M.D., professor of clinical orthopedics in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at UB and director of the Concussion Management Clinic, who, after testing, diagnosed a nervous system disorder in addition to concussion. Leddy prescribed a months-long regimen of daily training to help Hollister recover fully.
Countless patients like Corey Hollister have benefited from treatment by UB sports medicine physicians, especially since 2011, when the late Ralph C. Wilson Jr., founder and Hall of Fame owner of the Buffalo Bills, and his wife, Mary Wilson, gave $1 million to the UB department of orthopedics and sports medicine.
Now, four years later, Mary Wilson and her fellow trustees of the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation have again chosen to support UB sports medicine, this time with a gift of $4 million to establish the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Center of Excellence in Sports Medicine in the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.
VIDEO: https://youtu.be/NtZ0MzQ3U70
Mary Wilson said the foundation is giving again to UB in recognition of its sports medicine doctors and the success of their teaching and research in the field.
"We are proud to announce today's grant to the University at Buffalo to establish the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Center of Excellence in Sports Medicine," she said Thursday. "As owner of the Bills, Ralph often said team doctors were the most important players on the sideline. This grant is yet another testament to the incredible, groundbreaking work taking place right here in Western New York that has an impact on athletes across the country."
The Wilsons knew the UB sports medicine doctors as team physicians for their Buffalo Bills football team. The physicians also serve as team doctors for the Buffalo Sabres hockey club and Buffalo Bandits lacrosse team, as well as for the UB Bulls.
The Wilson Foundation gift will allow UB sports medicine to continue addressing a wide range of health concerns - including concussion and trauma care - for all its patients, from aging seniors to professional athletes to weekend warriors and student-athletes like Corey Hollister.
John Marzo, M.D., UB associate professor of clinical orthopedics, who worked nearly two decades as Buffalo Bills' medical director for Ralph Wilson, talked about what the gift means for the department.
"We feel extremely lucky to be the recipient of one of the legacy grants through the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation," Marzo said. "What the grant will allow us to do is to continue our programs in perpetuity."
One of those programs involves Leddy's work in the Concussion Management Clinic, where Hollister was treated. Hollister had sustained a concussion, and suffered all the classic symptoms: dizziness, nausea, severe and constant headaches, sensitivity to lights and sounds.
"This was my first concussion, so I thought I would recover easily and get back on the mat," Hollister said.
But after returning two months later, he was quickly reinjured. And this time, the headaches were much worse.
Hollister had never been seriously injured in his wrestling career, which began when he was a third-grader in Perry. UB recruited Hollister, a four-year member and three-year team captain of the Perry Central High School wrestling team, because of his ability to win. He finished his senior season with an overall record of 45-4, the first wrestler from his hometown to earn multiple trips to the New York state tournament.
"I had no idea what was going on, and my parents were very concerned," Hollister said. "I wondered if my head was ever going to go back to the way it was."
Hollister, who has been approved to compete in his senior season of wrestling at UB, is grateful to have been a patient of Leddy and the UB sports medicine team.
"By seeing the UB sports medicine doctors, especially Dr. Leddy, I was able to see that I would get better and I would be able to wrestle again," he said. "Dr. Leddy has an expertise in head and brain injuries that general sports medicine doctors don't have. He definitely helped a lot. The UB sports medicine folks monitored me every step of the way and helped me recover."
The new gift will continue to support several initiatives that were begun as a result of the Wilsons' first gift in 2011:
The Ralph and Mary Wilson Visiting Professor Lecture Series, which Marzo said, "has allowed us an enlightened intellectual interchange between some of the world's experts in sports medicine" and brought greater exposure of UB's program worldwide.
The arthroscopy teaching lab, where the physicians teach surgical skills to UB residents and fellows in a controlled environment, using a virtual reality arthroscopy simulator, one of only seven or eight in existence. This allows the students to learn with "no time constraints and much less pressure," Marzo said, adding, "Across the board, my partners and I have seen that their skill level has risen from what we used to see, when we had to teach them in bits and pieces in a real operating room."
Groundbreaking research in traumatic brain injury. Leddy and his researchers are internationally renowned for a program that can determine when or whether it would be safe for athletes to return to play, Marzo said, noting "this has helped them garner an NIH-level grant. So we're finding that the seed money, if you will, from the Wilsons has helped us leverage other grants and industrial financial support for continued research."
Bringing the best doctors to Western New York. "The exposure from the Wilson visiting professorship and other initiatives funded through the Wilson gift has allowed us to attract more highly trained and better qualified trainees, who end up staying in Western New York after their UB teaching experience. So, slowly, we're populating this area with what we think are better and more highly trained clinician scientists," Marzo said.
"It will be an honor to carry on the Wilson name through the endowment," Marzo said. "Thanks to the Wilson Foundation, we'll continue our programs and I know (Ralph Wilson) would be very proud of it. Mr. Wilson's loyalty to his staff, to the people of Western New York, and particularly to his players was legendary. This will be a way for us to carry on the Wilson name and all will see the programs we have providing good clinical care to the patients and athletes of Western New York."
About the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation
The Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation is a newly funded private foundation headquartered in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan. The foundation was established in 2011 by Ralph C. Wilson Jr. to eventually become the vehicle to receive a substantial amount of his estate's proceeds, which are to be used exclusively for charitable purposes. Wilson passed away March 25, 2014, after which the trustees liquidated the majority of his estate's assets and funded the foundation with $1.2 billion in early 2015. It measures in the top five of Michigan-based private foundations and has a 20-year lifespan. The same four individuals who served as trustees for Wilson's estate are designated as life trustees of the foundation. Three trustees will be added in the near future.

Tas driver evades cops, hides in pine tree
An unlicensed Tasmanian driver has been caught hiding in a pine tree in a farmer's paddock in an audacious attempt to avoid police.
The 26-year-old was one of three dangerous drivers nabbed by police in the state's far northwest on Wednesday.
He failed to pull over for officers in Smithton, but was later found in the tree, police say.
He then failed a roadside drug test and faces several charges including dangerous driving.
Another driver was caught travelling 149km/h, while a motorcyclist was busted travelling 160km/h.
"The three detections are all extremely concerning, particularly relating to the significantly high speeds and blatant disregard of the law," acting inspector Adrian Shadbolt said.
Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

Breast cancer survivor Christina Applegate is still struggling to come to terms with undergoing a double mastectomy, insisting she feels "very disconnected" with her reconstructed chest four years on.
The actress decided to take immediate action when doctors diagnosed her with an early form of the disease in 2008 and she regained her figure after having reconstructive surgery.
But Applegate, 40, admits having fake boobs did little for her self-esteem and she feels no emotional connection with her new chest.
In a candid TV talk with The Conversation host Amanda de Cadenet, she says, "It just is different (having fake breasts). I think at first I was pretty OK with them, as far as just they stood up, they didn't move, I could wear tank tops without a bra, but to be honest, this section of my body (her chest) I'm just very disconnected with. It's just a strange thing."

Busy times for Macduff
Mon, 16 March 2015
Macduff Shipyards has just completed its latest vessel called the 'SSF/MD 1', the first of four 150t tonne automated feed barges being built for Scottish Sea Farms Limited.
The vessel was fabricated, engineered and fitted out at Macduff with the yard working closely with Macduff Ship Design Ltd during the design stage to finalise the hull form.
It is kitted out with an Orbit GMT feed system and a broadcrown generator featuring a John Deere six cylinder diesel engine which provides the main 415/230v power in the barge.
The barge benefits from a Palfinger PK12000 MA deck crane for loading feed and general duties, a Bombas Azcue deck wash pump, submersible sump pumps for bilge duties, LED lighting throughout and aircraft tyre fenders to the sides and stern.
This is the first of four 19.8m feed barges and two 14.95m twin screw landing craft type workboats being built for Scottish Sea Farms Ltd. The other three feed barges are currently under construction and the first workboat is almost complete.
Also under construction by Macduff is a 27.5m workboat being fitted out for Inverlussa Marine Services. This is a new vessel for the same company which took delivery of the Helen Mary in May 2012. It is of a similar design, but this new vessel has more beam, bigger crane capacity, more powerful engines and the hull is built to BV Classification.
Macduff has also just won a contract from Moray Council in Scotland to build a 25.7m twin screw steel dredger to a design by Macduff Ship Design Ltd.

Masterson throws 3rd shutout, Indians beat Chisox
- June 30, 2013 - 4:20 PM
CHICAGO — Justin Masterson pitched his major league-leading third shutout of the season and the Cleveland Indians completed their first four-game sweep in Chicago since 1948, beating the White Sox 4-0 Sunday.
Masterson (10-6) gave up six hits, struck out eight and walked one. He blanked the White Sox for the second time this year.
Masterson faced the minimum 18 batters through six innings thanks to two double plays and a pickoff. The Indians turned four double plays overall.
After Masterson began the ninth with two strikeouts, he allowed a single to Alejandro De Aza and hit Alexei Ramirez with a pitch. Masterson struck out Alex Rios looking to end the game.
The win moved Cleveland into a virtual tie with Detroit atop the AL Central. The White Sox have lost 23 of 31 and fallen a season-high 15 games under .500.
Yan Gomes got three hits as the Indians won for the 10th time in 13 games.
Chris Sale (5-7) struck out 10 while allowing three runs in eight innings. He recorded double-digit strikeouts for the fourth time this season.
Sale was perfect through the first three innings before Drew Stubbs led off the fourth with a bunt single.
Sale went 0-4 with a 3.19 ERA and two no-decisions in June — the White Sox scored a total of nine runs during his six starts in the month. Sale hasn't won since May 17 against the Los Angeles Angels.
The Indians scored twice in the fourth. Ryan Raburn hit a two-out double that drove in Stubbs, and Carlos Santana added an RBI single.
The Indians added a run in the fifth. Michael Brantley led off with a single and later scored on Lonnie Chisenhall's groundout.
Stubbs hit an RBI double in the ninth.
The White Sox put two on in the seventh before Rios hit into a double play and Adam Dunn struck out.
NOTES: White Sox GM Rick Hahn said he hopes the team gets on a roll. If not, changes could occur as the July 31 trade deadline approaches. Hahn said his staff has been receiving "a pretty healthy pace" of calls from other teams over the last few weeks. He indicated no player is untouchable for a possible deal ... 1B Paul Konerko remained out of the White Sox lineup with a sore back for the sixth straight game. He said he hopes to play on Tuesday. The team has Monday off. ... Ramirez will eventually get a day off, manager Robin Ventura said. The shortstop is the only player in the majors to play every inning this year. He has committed an AL-leading 14 errors. ... The Indians placed OF Michael Bourn on the three-day paternity list and recalled LHP Nick Hagadone. Bourn, who went to Houston after Saturday's game to be with his wife, will be eligible to return to the roster Wednesday. Bourn is hitting .299 as the Indians' primary leadoff hitter. Hagadone is 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA. ... Indians 2B Jason Kipnis and 1B Nick Swisher had the day off.

When it comes to losing weight portion control is very important. Skinny Fiber helps you by feeling full among other things that you can read about here.
You should really take into consideration though that Skinny Fiber will help you get started with your weight loss, but weight loss should become a lifestyle. With that said today in this post I would like to talk about the importance of portion control and give you a few tips to keep in order to make this a habit of yours.
First Step To Portion Control For Weight Loss
Many weight loss studies suggest that most people who are overweight simply just over eat and though time gain weight.
What you should do to get back on track and develop healthy eating habits.
To get started with healthy eating habits first you wanna take your Skinny Fiber, so that your body will get use to eating less without the gut wrenching feeling of feeling extremely hungry.
Step 2 to losing weight with Portion Control Plates and Bowls
Now that you got started with your Skinny Fiber the next step is to toss out or pack up all your plates and bowls! Yes that is right just toss them out as they are one of the top reasons why you are over eating.
What you need to do is find plates and bowls that are proportioned correctly, so that you don't over eat.
While searching for a product like this you want to keep in mind that there are many out on the market. I find it best to find one that has the actual measurements on them, so this will also help you keep your food log more accurate and you can measure your progress better over time.
Learn How To Create A Food Log Here!
You may still feel hungry at first, but once your body gets use to eating the correct amount of food along with your Skinny Fiber you are going to maximize your results.
I took the time to find you some good ones on Amazon.
I put the last one up there just incase you wanted to keep your same dishes because it goes over your current plates, but it's not a bowl :).
Step 3 To A Healthy Weight Loss Lifestyle
Now that you are getting use to it you have to remember that by choosing to lose weight you have told yourself that you wanted to change and start living healthy, but once you actually lose the weight it doesn't just stop there you have to be committed and make this a lifestyle change, so you don't end up going back to old habits that once ran your life how it wanted to. You need to be in full control and not some nasty eating habit. Now I know this is very much easier said then done, but it needs to be done and by practicing portion control while using Skinny Fiber you are starting off on the right track.

Intuitiveness of DF Analysis
Being fundamental to its workings, once the DOS model is grasped, its intuitiveness enables one to understand mind at the functional level without much effort using DF analysis. E.g. DF analysis makes it possible to understand basic nature of phenomena mentioned below, whose workings and taxonomy have always been a mystery, just by using common sense logic.
Thoughts are communication between VP and LB or themselves.
Decisions result out of VP's processing with LB or itself.
Judgments are decisions finalized by VP.

Minnesota anesthesiologist Mark A. Warner freely admits he doesn't know who represents Eastern Maryland in Congress. But he knows who he wants for the job: Andy Harris, the Republican challenger to Frank Kratovil, the district's Democratic incumbent.
In his second run at the seat he missed narrowly two years ago, Harris has worked hard to raise money from fellow doctors around the country. Anesthesiologists from at least 39 states and the District of Columbia have responded by pumping more than $250,000 into his campaign, according to Federal Election Commission records, making them far and away the largest single interest fueling Maryland's most competitive House race.
About one in five dollars donated by individuals to Harris' 2010 candidacy has come from medical professionals, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics, which tracks money in campaigns. Virtually all of that was given by anesthesiologists, one of the most politically active medical specialties.

With tons of pressure on an individual to succeed on a day-to-day basis, being an entrepreneur is no easy task. PocketSuite aims to make life just a little bit easier for entrepreneurs and alleviate the stress that comes with complex transactions that many need to hire bookkeepers for. The app allows smooth, frictionless transactions between independent business owners and their clients while also helping you manage appointments and all financial information including pending payments and current income.
It allows entrepreneurs to be mobile, to access important information about their business and clients from anywhere in the world through the use of their mobile phone. Many independent business owners are limited by the need of their desktop computer where as with PocketSuite, entrepreneurs can feel more in control and more flexible.
The other aspect of the app is that it gives entrepreneurs and regular everyday working people the ability to hire freelance workers. Whether you need a DJ for your party, someone to cater your wedding, someone to walk your dog, or a graphic designer for your new project—PocketSuite allows you to not only find these freelance workers but also provides a platform to communicate with, book, and pay these workers with one single app.
First impressions
The way you can search for businesses and freelancers by proximity to your location, as well as the availability of the freelancer, makes it very convenient and enjoyable experience for the user.
What makes this app so special is the ability to search for businesses that your friends have used and loved. You ever feel like you can't trust ratings and reviews on Yelp? The problem with consumer reviews is that anyone can write them and they may not be accurate. PocketSuite eliminates the issue of mistrust because you can see the businesses that people that you personally trust have vouched for. No need to call your friends and say, "hey, know any good plumbers?" Everything is right there on the app for you. Just invite your friends to join your PocketSuite and you literally see a community begin to build of friends and service professionals.
Pricing & Availability
The app is completely free but at this time is only available for iOS. The app is currently listed in the App Store which can be searched using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch device. The app requires iOS 7.0 or higher and although the app can be used on the iPhone 4 models, it is optimized for iPhone 5 models.
What it does well
The process is simple. You search for a particular type of service provider. Service providers are ranked with the people you've used in the past that you rated highly and ones that your friends have used and rated highly are ranked above the service providers rated by strangers. Once you've found the service provider that you want and they've completed their task, you can pay them via the app. While paying them, you can rate the service and write a short review. One cool aspect is the ability to take a picture and attach it to the review. For instance, you can take a picture of the set up that a wedding planner put together or the work a landscaper has done on your yard. It gives even more validation to your review. What makes PocketSuite more trustworthy than other consumer reviews is that only verified paying customers can leave a review which eliminates any false or made up reviews.
The UX is simplistic, clear, and easy to pick up. With what they call the "Mobile Executive Dashboard," you can see all of your upcoming appointments with clients, how much money is owed to you, and how much money you've made so far. The dashboard isn't overly complicated or gives you an overabundance of information that overwhelms you, it sticks to the key metrics that an entrepreneur needs to know and allows you to be mobile. Not to mention financially, this gives small business owners the ability to have an executive dashboard that is usually reserved for bigger businesses who tend to have the finances to afford it. PocketSuite gives this type of technology away for free showing that above anything, they value customer service to the user unlike some apps which try to monetize every little feature.
Other cool features include the ability to automatically sync your PocketSuite appointments with your local calendar on your phone and user profiles which gives the app a more "social media" type of environment. You can enter a short bio and description of yourself that's available to the public. It gives the app and the hiring process a more personal feel.
What we would like to see in future updates
This app is more helpful the more available it is to the masses, with that being said - we hope to see the app compatible with Android devices in the future. Currently as mentioned before, its limited to only users of Apple devices but with the inclusion of Android devices it will allow your community on the app to grow immensely and will make for an even more enjoyable experience. The more people who can use the app, the more useful and credible the app becomes. It creates a trustworthy network of friends, independent business owners, and reviews which will make the app more than just software but a necessity.
We would also to like to see the ability to include business website links and social media integration. To go along with the review, it would be nice to be able to have the website (if available) for the person you are working with as well as their Facebook Page, Twitter, Instagram, etc. PocketSuite has certain features already that gives it the personal feel of a social media account, it would take it a step further with social media integration.
The Verdict
The app is still in its early stages and the community isn't huge yet but there's no questioning how helpful this app can be. The onus is really on the users to take charge and spread the word to their friends to make this app worthwhile. But for small business owners, it gets no better. To have an app that allows to have a free executive dashboard and connect with all types of new potential customers, the sky is the limit. With its easy-to-use user interface, a fun and interactive style, a business structure built on trust, and two founders who've put customer service as a top priority - there's no reason to doubt that this app is on the verge of greatness.

Comoros Islands Driving Advice and Car Hire Info
Driving in Comoros Islands
Driving abroad in the Comoros Islands is on the right of the road and you should be able to use the licence of most countries for up to 3 months.After that an International Driving permit is needed. Roads are generally in poor condition, congested, very narrow, and poorly lit at night. An exception is the main road around Grand Comore which is generally okay. You should avoid driving after dark and exercise extreme caution if you have to drive as there are likely to be obstacles and pedestrians in the road and unlit vehicles. Most roads in towns are paved, but many rural roads are not. Whether paved or not, many roads have plenty of potholes and dangerous curves. Roads have no posted speed limits, but road conditions limit speeds to below 30 miles an hour. Driving standards are often erratic and you should drive cautiously and expect the unexpected.
Comoros Car Rental –
Avis advertise an office on the Comoros Islands but it doesn't seem to function when you attempt to make a reservation. You'll get about 10 pages of Broker sites via Google search if you type in Comoros car rental but I can't find any who actually provide cars there
Below is a tour company based (I believe) in South Africa who may be able to advise on renting a car.
This seems to be a local travel company with a pretty shabby website. They have a contact page though so you could attempt to open a dialogue with them and see if they can help.

New York, NY (PRWEB) July 23, 2014
The first volume of the 2014 revamp of the classic "Sea of Love Riddim" (originally produced by Sir Coxsone Dodd for his Studio One label), offers an abundance of great music! Uplifting and positive messages will resonate with each and every reggae and dancehall fan!.
The "Sea of Love Riddim, Vol. 1" (Skinny Bwoy/Skinny Bwoy Canada), compilation starts off with "Kiss Me One More Time" from the wonderful songbird Twiggi (best known for her work with Penthouse Records in the mid-90's). It then takes a turn upwards with "Party Tun Up" from Sadiki and Third World reggae band lead singer AJ Brown. The brilliant Pam Hall (who has released several albums through VP Records), hits the perfect notes with the inspirational "Freedom Song". Canada's Tony Anthony takes over with "Friend Zone".
We are then introduced to the splendid voice of Michelle Buckley (the sister of singer/songwriter/producer Sadiki), making her recording debut with the Reggae Gospel offering "Prisoners". British songstress Helen Rogers (best known for her work with Jazzmasters & Paul Hardcastle), gives us "Woman Overboard" in keeping with the theme of the compilation. Sadiki is up next (recording under the name Henry Buckley Jr. on this track), he belts out the classic "Sea of Love" with great conviction. Likkle Shanx of the group Roots Revealers is up next with the sweet reggae ballad "Memories". French trumpeter Poopa Tribuman gives us "Sea of Trumpets" - a jazzy-reggae, muted-trumpet rendition of "Sea of Love". Album Producer Sadiki then closes out the segment with the "Sea of Love Riddim".
"Sea of Love Riddim, Vol. 1" (Skinny Bwoy/Skinny Bwoy Canada) is available immediately on a pre-order basis at iTunes, Amazon.com and other leading digital stores. Physical CD's can be purchased via Amazon or directly from Skinny Bwoy Records at http://www.skinnybwoyrecords.com. "Sea of Love Riddim, Vol. 1" officially releases on August 5th, 2014.

As I see it
Women wept in the streets when the FDA's first commissioner left office in 1912. This summer, as the nation observes the centennial of the 1906 Pure Food and Drugs Act that established the FDA, it is sobering to reflect on the profound changes that have on one hand diminished the standing of the commissioner and on the other raised the level of public health and safety that this agency guarantees. (One measure of the latter is that a newborn's life expectancy in 1906 was 49 years, compared with 77 now.)
Contrast the six-week tenure of the FDA's last confirmed commissioner, Lester M. Crawford, now under criminal investigation over his official obligations, with the national reverence in which the FDA's first commissioner was held. Born in a log cabin, Harvey Washington Wiley fearlessly fought rogue food and drug hucksters who had never been regulated before—but who had plenty of clout on Capitol Hill.
In addition to drafting the Pure Food and Drugs Act, his most famous exploit was the "Poison Squad," composed of healthy young men who volunteered to test suspect foods and chemicals on themselves.
After five years at the FDA's helm, Wiley resigned rather than continue battling his critics, and went to Good Housekeeping magazine, where he headed their laboratories and established the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval. When he died in 1930, he was still held in such high national esteem that he was buried in Arlington National Cemetery.
With our greater sophistication, our national leadership at all levels seems to have fallen in general esteem, regardless of current political divisiveness.
As we observe the FDA's centennial this summer, it's hard to think of the departure of its commissioner bringing tears to the eyes. I think that's a pity.

A Chicago technology company that enables banks to make small-business loans online got an endorsement Monday from the American Bankers Association.
The privately held Akouba will offer its origination and underwriting platform to ABA-member banks, which will receive preferred pricing, according to a press release announcing the agreement.
The deal is designed to give smaller banks a better chance of competing with marketplace lenders. Participating banks will establish their own credit policies, and the online loan application process will carry each bank's own branding.
"The small-business loan application process is very time-sensitive and costly for banks, and there is a need to simplify and accelerate the process," Bryan Luke, a Hawaii banker who is chairman of an ABA advisory council, said in the release.
Akouba is one of several tech companies that offer online lending platforms to banks. "We have implemented a lot of the same technology strategies online lenders use and given those tools to banks as a platform," Akouba CEO Chris Rentner said in a 2016 interview.
The ABA selected Akouba following what the trade group described as an extensive due diligence process. ABA spokesman John Hall said in an email that more such announcements are in the pipeline.

Fans earn free frozen dessert as BYU downs San Francisco, 81-56
BYU fans earn free frozen yogurt as the Cougars gained an easy win against San Francisco
Cougarista Salt Lake City, UTJan. 9, 2012 5:26 p.m.
I hope Coach Rex Walters learns that when you are down by 25+ points with under 72 seconds left, you don't call time out twice. If you do, you should not object to the BYU 2's and 3's shooting the ball.
factcheck Salt Lake City, UTJan. 9, 2012 4:17 p.m.
Memo to PAC 12 fans. (I don't say Ute fans, because all I see is PAC12 window decals) San Francisco may not be a powerhouse, but they were able to beat Northern Arizona by 19, the same NAU that beat the mighty Arizona State SunDevils.
jarka-rus Layton, UtahJan. 9, 2012 3:07 p.m.
I'll take playing WCC teams over not even making the church ball region tourney any day. LOL
Eddie Syracuse, UTJan. 9, 2012 2:40 p.m.
If Old ball coach's team is the u, then their season was over with before it began.
TrollPolice Salt Lake City, UTJan. 8, 2012 10:51 p.m.

"Yawn......wake me up in March!!"
No need to; your season will be over before March Madness begins.
BYUHOCKEY American Fork, UTJan. 8, 2012 9:35 p.m.
i wouldn't call it an easy win but an "earned win". byu played more cohesively than usual. hopefully this is a trend now. they have had ups and downs as they adjust to a seemingly ever changing roster due to injuries and recoveries. keep up the great hustle and teamwork. Go Cougars!
Old ball coach Sandy, UTJan. 8, 2012 8:48 p.m.

Pretty sure your basketball coach will be hanging out at church ball games to pick up more players next.
Cougarista Salt Lake City, UTJan. 8, 2012 2:53 p.m.
Glad that the Cougars are on national/world TV. Clearly onE team in Utah is glad they are not.
Captain L Provo, UTJan. 8, 2012 2:26 p.m.
Many posters a few days ago were complaining that Zylstra shouldn't be starting, I think you can see why Zylstra is starting, he not only can score but he plays the whole game and plays smart. He may not score like that all the time but he has and can have games like this, you never know.
Orem Parent Orem, UTJan. 8, 2012 11:18 a.m.
Wow somebody must have rattled the chains of the utah fans this morning. They seem to be out in force and their jealousy is showing up big time.
Having EVERY game on national t.v. is bringing unprecedented exposure to the Cougars. This will only help with recruiting in state as well as nationally.
The Cougars are seeing several freshmen getting significant playing time and this has the ute fans running scared and grasping at straws on the message boards. It is kind of sad actually. I can remember back quite a few years ago to the time when Utah actually competed in basketball. I was even cheering for them in the NCAA tourney back in the day. Now they have become the laughing stock of a league that is quickly becoming a laughing stock of the nation.
At any rate, I'm so glad we have coach Rose and his staff. They know how to get things done and he has proven himself to be a first class recruiter.
Rise and shout Cougar nation. It is a great time to be a Cougar!
kokua KAYSVILLE, UTJan. 8, 2012 8:38 a.m.
The BYU earned an A+ yesterday against a C team in the Don's from San Fran. I hope the boys maintain this level of play as the work to improve and prepare for St. Mary's again and Gonzaga.
Stay focused Boy's you can win out if you stay on target.
runner10 TOOELE, UTJan. 8, 2012 8:14 a.m.
It is probably best not to post unless you have your facts straight. It just makes you look stupid. Most sports analysts have the WCC as a 3 bid conference. Currently ESPN bracketology has BYU as a 9 seed and the WCC with 3 bids. The PAC 12 is currently predicted to be a 2 bid conference. I am excited that BYU is now in the WCC with the opportunity to compete against Gonzaga and St. Marys for the conference title. Go Cougs.
DeepBlue Anaheim, CAJan. 8, 2012 12:38 a.m.
With the addition of BYU, the WCC has become a three NCAA bid conference.
With the addition of Utah, the PAC 12 has become a one NCAA bid conference.
Embarrassing for the PAC 12, but true.
btw Patriot, I wouldn't be knocking NAIA teams if I were U. U barely beat Westminster equivalent San Diego Christian 58-55.
CougFaninTX Frisco, TXJan. 7, 2012 11:18 p.m.
Ute troll comments are pretty interesting since I'm pretty sure that the only WCC team they could beat is Portland in the friendly confines of the Hunstsman.
WCC is clearly a three team conference this year. Looking forward to the remaining games against St Marys, Zags and Va Tech.
IndeMak South Jordan, UTJan. 7, 2012 9:53 p.m.
Watching BYU play against these nobodies is not what I expected. I guess my expectations are set way too high. Can't watch another minute of San Francisco, Layola stuff. Is this what it has come to?
patriot Cedar Hills, UTJan. 7, 2012 9:35 p.m.
San Francisco ... now there's a national power! Whose next, West Minister College???
Honor Code Denver, ColoradoJan. 7, 2012 9:27 p.m.
Pffff........you should beat teams like San Francisco, especially since you have the BYU channel to illustrate to your future Church Basketball League that some of them could qualify to play in the Marriott Center!!
flatlander Omaha, NEJan. 7, 2012 8:31 p.m.
If all you care about is a win no matter how weak the opponent then I guess you enjoyed the game. I quit watching after 5 minutes because it was clearly over. I am down to only watching three more of their games and the rest-well not for me I would rather watch some competitive ball.
Riverton Cougar Riverton, UtahJan. 7, 2012 8:08 p.m.
"Which tournament is this you speak of? I hate to burst your bubble but BYU is the 3rd-best team in a 1-bid conference."
Have you looked at Bracketology on ESPN? I think you are one of the few predicting BYU to not make the NCAA. The other few with you are other BYU haters.
Brave Sir Robin San Diego, CAJan. 7, 2012 7:03 p.m.
Which tournament is this you speak of? I hate to burst your bubble but BYU is the 3rd-best team in a 1-bid conference.
So yes, I agree with you: The Cougars are going to be a very good team when the NIT starts.
cougarNV Las Vegas, NVJan. 7, 2012 7:02 p.m.
I loved the comment by Dave McCann when Carlino shot his Air Ball.
Something to the effect of, "Carlino reminds us that he is still a freshman..."
I appreciate Dave's candor. Being that Dave is from Vegas and sees the Rebels up close, I would like to know how he would compare the Cougars to the Rebels (Where we are enjoying Coach Rice's job he is doing coming here from Provo).
My opinion is that the Cougars would be found lacking on their perimeter defense and could not keep up with them at this point in the season.
I miss the better competition of UNM, SDSU, UNLV but I love the class of the WCC.
BlueCoug Orem, UTJan. 7, 2012 6:30 p.m.
Another great game for the Cougars, except for a couple of short dry spells in the 1st and 2nd halfs when the offense seemed to lose its rhythm. Zylstra was in the zone today -- unbelievable shooting from 3 -- and the Cougars had 16 assists on 16 made baskets in the first half.
It's nice the BYU seems to have a different player stepping up every game.
Carlino still forces things at times, but he's still learning.
The Cougars are going to be a very good team come tournament time.
Ted H. Midvale, UTJan. 7, 2012 6:26 p.m.
Maybe not too terrible impressive considering the opponent. But hey, things could be worse.
We could have lost our 11th game of the season today
Eddie Syracuse, UTJan. 7, 2012 6:20 p.m.
Not even close. The Cougs had then chasing shadows 3 minutes into the game. After watching a little bit of the u game and then this game was like watching little kiddie games then moving on to the pros. What a difference! But then again when you look at the difference in rankings it is no wonder.

Arthur White is the doctor who performed back surgery on Joe Montana four years ago. Mark Sontag is the doctor who treats the San Francisco 49ers on a daily basis.
Both think free-agent lefthander Joe Price still can pitch in the major leagues, and they stated as much in a two-page letter Price's agent plans to FAX to the Orioles today.
Price, 33, is a free agent only because the Orioles refused to pick up the $400,000 option year in his contract, a decision they based in large part on the bulging disk in his back.

Jenna Coleman gives glimpse of her role as Queen Victoria
Jenna Coleman has made her debut as a young Queen Victoria in the first trailer for the much-anticipated drama.
F ormer Doctor Who star Coleman plays the monarch in new eight-part series Victoria, following the early years of her reign after she ascends to the throne at the tender age of 18.
Victoria is shown finding out for the first time that she is to become queen, receiving news from Windsor that the King, William IV, has died.
She promises a portrait of her late father, Prince Edward: "I will do my best, papa."
Rufus Sewell is shown as the monarch's first prime minister Lord Melbourne, encouraging the young monarch despite criticisms from around her that "she is out of her depth" and "the strain is too much for her".
But the two also clash, with Victoria warning: "Lord Melbourne, you forget yourself. I believe I shall find my own way and if I require advice, I will ask for it."
The series chronicles the public and private life of the monarch through to her courtship and marriage to Prince Albert, played by Tom Hughes.
The clip was shared on Twitter and will air for the first time on ITV at 7.28pm on Friday. Victoria will air in the autumn.

Captain Ryan is a fictional character in the fictional T.V show Space Heroes. He is the captain of the ship in Space Heroes, and is the main character of the show. He is Leonardo's role model, and Leo copies everything he does sometimes, such as saying his catchphrase.
One of the things that Captain Ryan seems to do often is slap the faces of his crew to calm them down. Raphael plays off of this, trying to get Leo to smack himself as well during the episode, "Panic in the Sewers" while quoting the show to calm him down.
At the same time though...Captain Ryan himself doesn't act like much of a hero; always sacrificing new recruits for certain missions and even getting rid of creatures in the least humane way.
- Captain Ryan parodies James T. Kirk from the popular show Star Trek.

Life is for living
Do you need motivation and encouragement? Want to know how to get out of bed early even in winter? I'll share my tips and motivation and I encourage you to share the journey with me.
Like everyone I have some bucket list items that I want to tick off sooner rather than later. Firstly, my goal is to complete an Ironman Triathlon – that's a 3.8km swim, a 180km cycle and a 42.2km run. The current plan is for Cairns in June, 2018.
And after that I want to run a marathon on every continent. I've ticked off Europe with the Amsterdam marathon in 2015. Next up is Antarctica in 2019.

To do a Google search in Persian, you go to www.Google.com/intl/fa/ (Google in Farsi) and beside the search box you will see a small keyboard icon. Click on it and a Persian keyboard opens up on your screen where you may enter your search phrase using Persian characters. You can do the same for Russian or Thai by going to Google.ru or Google.th . Currently there are 35 languages supported for this function. Unfortunately Mandarin and Cantonese are currently not available with this feature, however I am certain Google will add these two important languages very soon.
Speaking about the virtual keyboard, it is worth mentioning that Google has has also updated the Translation function. This feature now offers both written and audio translation for the 35 languages that are supported in the virtual keyboard function (plus Mandarin!)

Joseph E. Fasciani | 2004-11-17 - Unfortunately for the rest of the world as well as us, the same Triumvirate that destroyed ancient Israel now sustains our national delusions: self-imposed blindness, a refusal to listen to or hear others, and a stiff-necked pride. Self-destructive arrogance has destroyed other nations and empires before ours, and it will again. No matter how official or dedicated, an error remains an error, and its deficits always bring defeat. What the founders of the United States most feared--that too much power invested in too few people would bring disaster--is now instituted and fully operational.
Terry Melanson | 2004-11-15 - On a few occasions I have been compelled to write something based solely upon an email I received regarding my site. Sometimes it was after I was made aware of additional information related to my research. Other times it was criticism that I felt needed a larger response than a simple email reply directed at a single individual. This is one of those times.
Barry Chamish | 2004-11-09 - Monday, Nov. 1 - I am selling my books at a gathering in Jerusalem. A friend of my Miami film producer Peter Goldman meets me. He has some amazing information. His friend is an Ichilov Hospital nurse, responsible for keeping hospital records. She was on duty when Rabin was brought in for the last time.
Barry Chamish | 2004-11-03 - ... believe it or not, Arafat and I agree on some pretty salient points. Recall that he claimed the murder of Rehavam Zeevi was not his doing, and that the order came from Damascus. That was my conclusion. We just differ on the motive. Zeevi threatened to expose Shimon Peres to the nation. Peres used his French intelligence contacts to arrange the hit through their organization, the PFLP, headquartered in Damascus.
Erik Fortman | 2004-11-03 - Well, it looks like this dumb, ol' redneck, pothead musician from Texas can cut to the chase faster than most Ivy League political pundits, who were more than not calling Kerry throughout. Today, they're still talking about college students' cell phones, when they should be talking about the pure inanity of Kerry for not conceding like a gentleman. (It is 10:30AM Central, Nov. 3, 2004. Kerry just conceded.) Bush has won. Now, maybe people don't agree with my antagonistic, agnostic anarchism - yet I see clearly.
Barry Chamish | 2004-10-26 - It had been three years since Save Israel!, my last book. I had forgotten the immediate reaction that comes with a new publication. It has only been two weeks since my new book, Shabtai Tzvi, Labor Zionism And The Holocaust, has been in the hands of people, and look at the reader reaction already!
Erik Fortman | 2004-10-26 - Bill O'Reilly has the most popular and most powerful fluff-news program in the country. His show, The O'Reilly Factor, dubbing itself the "no-spin zone," is nothing less than Illuminati stage-show.
Erik Fortman | 2004-10-21 - In this article, Ayn Rand's book, the classic manuscript "Anthem", will be discussed. It is a beginner's guide to understanding the complete flaw that is collectivism. Conversely, this book extols the virtue of individualism, and love.
Barry Chamish | 2004-10-15 - The proclamation from Gaza was issued not by a leader of Hamas, but rather by the 17th-century Jewish kabbalist Nathan of Gaza, who in 1665 became the major prophet of the infamous false messiah from Izmir, Shabbetai Zevi. The proclamation's rebuke was not part of Ariel Sharon's argument for evacuating Jewish settlers from Gaza, but of a ruling by Rabbi Jacob Sasportas, the most outspoken and tireless opponent of the Sabbatean messianic outbreak.
Erik Fortman | 2004-10-15 - Who are the 3rd Party candidates, excepting Nader, for 2004? The saddest part of the whole rape of the presidential election by Bush, Kerry, and Nader is that we have a very exciting 3rd Party field this year. These are the major candidates.
Erik Fortman | 2004-10-12 - Anarchists have three basic tenets. These are liberty, equality, and solidarity. Liberty is the only way one can develop individuality. Liberty is self-explanatory, and it is the only way for individuality to fully flower. Equality means that all people are equal in the eyes of the law.
Barry Chamish | 2004-09-30 - By October 1996 I knew that Yigal Amir wasn't the murderer of Yitzhak Rabin. There wasn't all that much evidence to back the claim, but what existed was conclusive. We had the assassination film showing Rabin walking upright after Amir's shots. There were the police lab results proving Rabin was shot point blank, which the film showed, Amir could not have done. And we had a witness who told us what happened.
Erik Fortman | 2004-09-30 - Government encroaches itself upon individual sovereignty. That is natural. It is also natural for the collective to reach a breaking point. This is why propaganda and mind control is so very, very important to the Illuminati. Can you imagine what would happen if, say even, 15% of the people of America refused to consent to submission? That would be 45 million malcontents.
Erik Fortman | 2004-09-30 - Why do Americans not listen to the fathers that gave them greatness? Democracy is a means of control, and our masters have utilized it well. So well, in fact, that elite, aristocratic, frat/cult brothers, and blood cousins are now both gun and bullet, one running with a D in front of his name, the other an R.
D'arcLyte | 2004-09-16 - The Constitution for the United States of America purportedly guaranteed a Republican form of government, so did the constitutions of the several States. Nowhere in those instruments, nor in the constitutions predecessor, the Articles of Confederacy, is the mention of Democracy. The Founding Fathers didn't want Democracy and as will be shown, they knew it leads to the destruction of nations employing it.
Barry Chamish | 2004-09-15 - The expose of the Yemenite kidnappings led readers to insist I explore the murder of the Yemenite-Israeli singer Ofra Haza. I had just begun when, divinely, a member of Haza's family asked to meet with me. What he imparted is going to sound fantastic, but what doesn't anymore? You judge, but I believed him.
Erik Fortman | 2004-09-14 - President George W. Bush is nothing, if not an elected monarch. He has seized upon this power to issue edicts in the form of Executive Orders. These decrees are not debated over. They are not voted upon by our representatives. The devolution of the power of the States as opposed to the central government is obvious.
Barry Chamish | 2004-09-10 - Kerry, like Howard Dean, Wesley Clark and Joe Leiberman are all members of the Council On Foreign Relations (CFR). So whoever Americans choose to be the Democratic candidate, they will get the same CFR agenda.
[...] Morrison doesn't realize that he is reporting a Sabbatean massacre, yet he instinctively writes about the Young Turks. We begin and end our overview with that subject. I will add my comments beginning and ending with two stars. ...
Barry Chamish | 2004-09-07 - They were to be used in a mass atomic experiment with an entire generation of Sephardi youths to be used as guinea pigs. Every Sephardi child was to be given 35,000 times the maximum dose of x-rays through his head. For doing so, the American government paid the Israeli government 300 million Israeli liras a year. The entire Health budget was 60 million liras. The money paid by the Americans is equivalent to billions of dollars today.
Barry Chamish | 2004-09-06 - The purpose of my exposing these sadistic experiments is to strengthen Judaism by removing these anti-Jews from our midst. Over the past 120 years the Sabbataians have infiltrated the Jewish leadership worldwide and oversaw the destruction of over 80% of the people by promoting wars, pogroms, assimilation and the Holocaust.

Considering the incredible price of this sax I'm extremely impressed with how well it performs in terms of its functionality. Quite often saxes around this price point have unstable tuning and a weak tone, whereas this model is the exact opposite. Position the Yamaha mouthpiece included within the set-up around 90% down the cork (a little further than normal) and all of the tuning pops out in exactly the right place! Beyond this the tone is very pleasant, making this sax highly playable. A definite recommendation from myself to complete beginners and a welcome addition to our student range of saxes. - Jim Cheek
