good news is Astros fans can riot all they want and not damage Houston more than it has been!
good news for me is two local guys have WS rings and one of those, alex bregman, is a 2017 2x champion!
I hope the dodgers can show up in the 2018 world series - 1988 is way too long ago (when I was still in high school).

One of the greatest marketing platforms for a game is Twitter. Yet, it is not always clear how to really use Twitter to build a following or to promote your game. If you're an indie game developer or are part of a growing games studio, if you're not already using Twitter to grow your audience – you are definitely missing out!
From a recent poll that I ran on Twitter (@Ninichimusic) – most indie game developers seemed to agree that the most important component to a game development marketing plan is to share images, gifs and video clips with their audience. In essence, you need to share regular updates on your game development via your Twitter feed.
So what can you share with your audience? Here's a list of ideas to help you get the most out of this:
· Concept art – any visuals that show what you're working on can get people excited about your game
· Key characters or objects in your game – introduce us to them. Who are they? What are they? What do they look like? Show us some images, gifs or video clips of them in action.
· Title screen – give us a glimpse of what this looks like. Get the name of your game stuck in our heads!
· Map of your world
· Menu options
· Beautiful scenery & other screenshots of your game
· Levels – if you have different levels in your game, show us what they look like and how they're different
· Boss fights – who are the enemies? Let us see them!
· Gameplay examples – we love seeing clips of example gameplay. Show us what we could be playing and getting our teeth into!
· Game music – let us hear what your game music sounds like. Share some tracks. Even better – share video clips with the music included.
(If you don't have your game music sorted yet contact me to explore some options. Also, listen to examples of my game music for ideas and inspiration)
· Special sound effects – are you using anything that's funny or unique. Share it!
· Trailer – if you've got a game trailer – show us and get us excited about what's coming
· Kickstarter campaign posters & links
· Facebook page links
· Mentions, thank you's, conversations between you & your team – let us see you interacting with each other & let us see who in the team has been involved with what
· Press coverage or reviews – if you've managed to get yourself on a blog or in the press – share it with us so we can learn more about your game. Check out my blog and game features and contact me if you'd like me to feature you game here.
· Conferences – if you're visiting any – let people know so we can see how active you are and where you're going to be
· Merchandise – if you've created any merchandise around your game – share these with us. Make us want them!
This is not an exhaustive list – so by all means, share more with your audience. I hope that this just gives you a few ideas to start off with. It can be daunting and it can be a bit scary to share so much of what you're up to without knowing exactly how people will react – but more likely than not, I think that you will be pleasantly surprised by how supportive everyone will be. We all want you and your game to succeed! The more you share with the world, the more we can get behind your game and support you with it.

Looking back over the past century, when did we begin to worry so much about risk that we have stopped living on the edge of possibilities and strayed back to the safety of the ensured? Just think in the past one hundred or so years we have seen the invention of the modern automobile allowing humans to travel faster than ever before and allowing easier travel over great distances. Let us not forget about the Wright Brothers who with their invention of the airplane allowed humans to take flight. Moreover, if we are talking about airplane it must be mentioned the invention of the rocket allowing humans to take that giant leap, a huge risk, and leave our planet Earth for the first time ever! Something that most thought to be impossible not that many years prior.
These are great achievements just in a short period but if we look even further back we see even greater risks that humanity has achieved. One that quickly pops to mind is the journey of Christopher Columbus to sail west across the vastness across the Atlantic Ocean in an effort to find the East Indies. What a risk not only Christopher Columbus took along with his sailors but also King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella who financed the trip! One wonders though how many risk mitigation strategies they had in place or what type of risk identification they took before authorizing the trip.
Obviously, in each of these cases throughout history risk management has played a part to one extent or another. When NASA sent Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins to the Moon, the risks were determined and mitigated for the issues that might arise on their journey. However, would that be even possible today? With risk management one of the top buzzwords across corporate America today, can we even begin to envision the next hundred years achieving as much as we have in the past? As a project manager, I have seen countless cases of project failures and one area that is constantly focused on as a cause of the failure is risk management. We seem to think that we can prepare for every eventually and then create a plan to mitigate or defuse those risks. But at times, all we can do is hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Using the example of Apollo 11 again, we see that President Nixon had two speeches prepared, one for the success of the mission, and one if we never were to see those astronauts again.
Sometimes we need to realize we are not perfect and no matter how much risk management you put into a project there is no way you will be able to fully understand all of the risks that may arise. This is especially true for our ventures on the edge of possibilities. If we do not ignore the risk of taking a step over that edge, we will no longer be able to push the road of possibilities even further into the realm of the impossible. Risk management is a benefit to helping control costs, reduce failure, and keeping a project on what is usually a tight schedule to begin with but too much risk management is a risk unto itself. Is too much risk management holding you back from reaching the edge of possibility?

BigDog Mowers - New sponsorship and marketing partnerships
ig Dog Mower Co. team is pleased to announce our recent marketing developments to building the Big Dog brand.
Big Dog Mower Co. is now the proud sponsor of the television series' "Backwoods Life" and "Sporting Dog Adventures" that will run for this year.
You may also have noticed that we have grown our Facebook Fan Page to over 3,000 likes by targeting our key demographics through Facebook Ads and boosting certain posts. We've boosted our Dealer Spotlight posts targeting their 50 mile radius area from their city. Encourage our dealers to contact Lindsay to run a spotlight for them and generate some digital 'word-of-mouth marketing' through Facebook. Our BigDog of the Week post is proving to be a popular post as well.
"Backwoods Life" is the fastest growing outdoor hunting television series in the industry. Their cast resides in Florida, Georgia and Kentucky. The show captures the outdoor lifestyle ranging from the beginner to the experienced hunters. We share their vision for supporting USA companies and products as well as promoting the outdoor lifestyle that we've identified as a key demographic for our outdoor power industry. (Details are in attached pdf)
Where Backwoods Life stands out from all the other outdoor channels is that they have a profound online presence through YouTube, Facebook(316,300+ likes), Twitter (128,000+ followers), online TV network platforms (Carbon TV, Huntit.tv, Demand The Outdoors) and blogs (Outdoor Hub) .
We're also sponsoring "Sporting Dog Adventures" presented by Cabela's, a reputable television show that features a pair of Labrador Retrievers as the stars of their show. The focus is not limited to dogs but covers hunting tips for hunters as well. The main cast is Jeff Fuller and his family out of Wisconsin. Jeff is a retired Muskego police officer who own a dog kennel called Soggy Acres Labrador Retrievers and he is a hunting enthusiast. The show shares our values with their theme of creating a family entertainment program rather than the shock value theme you may see from other outdoor shows. Jeff and his wife hunt with their 3 sons and their dogs going on their 5th season. The theme and the professionalism of this show earned a sponsorship from Cabela's which we acknowledge to be a powerful brand that validates great potential for the show.
Sporting Dog Adventures are focused on growing their online presence as well through Facebook (98,000+ likes) and Twitter (66,800+ followers) as well as different online TV network platforms. Their show is primarily aired in the USA as well as in Canada and New Zealand. (Details are in attached pdf)

A Diverse Defensive: Women's Soccer Aims to Thrive with Healthy Mix of Old and New
By Elizabeth Hilfrank, Sports Editor
The Gettysburg College Women's Soccer team returns to campus in high hopes of improving from last season's Centennial Conference playoff performance.
With 89% of the offensive team returning for 2017, the team believes there is a strong chance for a high scoring season.
In a Facebook Live interview with senior captains Maddie Heaney and Gillian Sencidiver, both posed a positive outlook of strength in versatility. New first years will add to the nine returning scorers.
The lady Bullets added a new team goal this season under the terms of, "Win the next one." With this slogan the senior captains hope to encourage the team to always look to the next best thing. The team does not want to settle because they believe that is when the talent fails.
Women's soccer has reached the Centennial Conference playoffs for seven years now, and the team is anxious to hit number eight. With that the women do not want to end just with playoffs but to keep in pursuit for more.
The lady Bullets returned to campus August 18 for their preseason camp. All starting defenders from the 2016 season will return for the 2017 fall. Heaney and Sencidiver believe this feature to be a special one and very important to the success of the program. The defensive end looks to get back to its foundation and thrive on pressure cover.
Not only will the returning members prove beneficial to the success of the team, but a strong group of first years will also march onto the field this season. Two first-years, Kerry Sammon and Natalie Brehaut, will join the defensive end as contending goalkeepers, in addition to a handful of other newcomers to assist.
The depth of the team sparks healthy competition for the season to come and provides safe support in case of injury.
The lady Bullets returned to campus in full-force August 18 for its preseason camp.
"The team came in with a great energy this preseason and ready to work," said assistant coach Riley Piechnick. "We have a great group of upperclassmen and leaders who are willing to do what it takes for the team to have a successful season."
A 2016 graduate from Loyola University, Coach Piechnick returns for her second season as assistant coach this fall.
"We are looking for strong, relentless players who hate to lose and so far we are seeing that which is getting us excited for the upcoming games," said Piechnick.
In a recent Centennial Conference poll, the Gettysburg women were predicted to finish fourth. This would be an improvement from last season's fifth place finish.
Aside from the physical ability of the team, women's soccer appears to come in strong on camaraderie. As said by Heaney, there's something special about going on the field with 11 of your best friends and 10 on the side, cheering you on.
This Gettysburg team believes that leadership is crucial to a well-functioning machine, and Head Coach Matthew Garrett thinks that the team is not remiss in this aspect.
"A new season will be defined by our strong senior group and leadership on and off the pitch," said Coach Garrett. "We are excited to build a new team to compete for championships with passion, strong values and a real desire to compete and be successful on and off the pitch."
This fall, Garrett enters his eleventh season as the lady Bullets' head coach.
Gettysburg College Women's Soccer officially started its season Friday night under the lights at 7p.m. in a non-Conference match-up against Lebanon Valley College.

A plane belonging to an American missionary organization was hijacked in Haiti today and ordered to fly with its 9 passengers to Miami, where the hijacker immediately surrendered to a SWAT team.
Just before 6:20 P.M., the plane landed at Miami International Airport and taxied to a special area, called the penalty box, reserved for hijacking cases. F.B.I. agents quickly surrounded the aircraft and subdued and handcuffed the hijacker, who did not seem to resist.
Soon passengers began emerging from the plane, a World War II-vintage DC-3. All walked under their own power; none appeared to be hurt.
The airplane is owned by Missionary Flight International, of West Palm Beach, Fla., and was hijacked in the northern coastal city of Cap-Haitien early this afternoon. The hijacker, identified by the F.B.I. as Woody Edouard, 24, seized a woman hostage on the ground and forced his way aboard the plane at gunpoint. American Passengers and Crew
An F.B.I. agent, John Pavlansky, said Mr. Edouard is Haitian and the nine passengers and two crew members, as well as the hostage, are Americans. But it was unclear if the hijacker had been motivated by political concerns, and F.B.I. officials in Miami said they had no information on whether he had been hoping to obtain political asylum.Continue reading the main story
Since a military coup in September 1991 overthrew the nation's President, the Rev. Jean-Bertrand Aristide, more than 40,000 Haitians have attempted to flee to the United States, almost all of them attempting the 600-mile journey in rickety boats.
In recent weeks, the Coast Guard has maintained a blockade off Haiti to prevent a greater seaborne exodus that was first inspired by the hope that the Clinton Administration might ease limits on claims for political asylum.
Airport authorities said the plane, a charter ordinarily used to ferry medical and other relief supplies, had flown early this morning to Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital. It was making a stop at Cap-Haitien on its return to Florida when the hijacker acted. At one point before takeoff, he fired a shot into the floor of the aircraft, the F.B.I. said. A Tense Refueling Stop
Shortly before 3 P.M. the plane refueled at Blue Hills, Turks and Caicos Islands, just south of the Bahamas. Mr. Pavlansky described the situation at the refueling stop as tense, with the hijacker holding his gun to the head of the pilot.
But once the hijacker was assured the plane was on its way to Florida, he surrendered his weapon to the crew.Mr. Pavlansky also said the hijacker had engaged in "some religious conversation with the hostage" before handing over his gun.
This evening, passengers were interviewed by law enforcement officers before their return to West Palm Beach. They declined to talk to reporters.
An article yesterday about the hijacking of a missionary plane from Haiti to Miami referred incompletely in some copies to the hijacker and incorrectly to the hostage. The hijacker was Haitian, and the hostage was American.

Hello divas! I hope that your weekend was fabulous and that you are ready for a wonderful week ahead. Mine was pretty good. I didn't get to run my half marathon due to an ankle injury but the rest of the weekend was really nice.
I am so ready for spring, though. I know I still have a couple of months, but that doesn't stop me from hoping (the warmer temps here in Tennessee doesn't help either!). And with spring, comes on of my favorite holidays – St. Patrick's Day. This also means that I look for some "green" food to enjoy over the holiday.
As you know, I have a serious sweet tooth. I have been trying to eat clean and limit my sugar this year, but I love my sweets. I am always trying to find ways to indulge in some sweetness without the guilt that comes with killing the diet. This time of year as spring approaches, I just think about how much I love key lime. So today I am sharing another easy healthy recipe – my light key lime cupcakes with greek yogurt icing.
Growing up, I always loved a good key lime pie. My aunt lived in south Florida so she would bring up some key limes and other citrus every time she visited. To this day I still love a good key lime pie when I am out and about, especially in the spring and summer as the temperatures start to get warmer. My mom even makes this fantastic key lime cake recipe for Christmas every year. I like to make these when I want something green for St. Patrick's Day.
But key lime cake is also great for this time of year because it is so light. For this particular recipe, I chose to start with my mom's key lime cake recipe and make it into a lighter version and cupcakes instead. I have lightened up the original recipe to use egg whites instead of eggs, coconut oil instead of canola oil and sugar free gelatin. Whipped greek yogurt is perfect for the icing, giving it the feel and taste of icing without all the extra sugar. And, of course, I made is extra festive for St. Patty's Day with some green sprinkles.
A light version of key lime cupcakes with vanilla flavored Yoplait Greek 100 Whips Icing
- 1 box lemon cake mix
- 1 box sugar free lime gelatin
- 3/4 cup liquid egg whites
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 4-5.3 oz. containers of vanilla cupcake Yoplait Greek 100 Whips Yogurt
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix cake mix, gelatin, coconut oil and orange juice until smooth.
- Add liquid egg whites, 1/4 cup at a time and mix for 2 minutes.
- Spoon into muffin pan and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove from pan and let cupcakes cool.
- After cooled, ice the top of the cupcakes with the yogurt. (I used cake decorating tools to do so)
- Sprinkle with green sprinkles and enjoy!

Brian McQueen missing as Clyde face East Stirling
Clyde defender Brian McQueen (knee) is the only absentee when the Bully Wee return to action after a fortnight's break against East Stirling.
Manager Barry Ferguson is looking for an improvement from his squad after their last outing ended in a 1-0 home defeat at hands of Queen's Park.
Ferguson said: "We did not play well that day and could not argue about the result. We have been working hard on putting things right and getting back to the good form we had been showing before then.
"East Stirling will come here and make things difficult but if we play like we can then we can win."
The Shire miss the injured duo Billy Vidler (knee) and Ross Gilmour (foot). Neil McCabe is a doubt for the game due to illness.
Head coach Craig Tully is hoping his side can bounce back from last weekend's disappointment after they let a two goal lead slip at Montrose to end up losing 3-2.
Tully said: "We really shot ourselves in the foot in that game. Our problems started when we failed to defend set pieces and that gave them (Montrose) hope.
"Clyde are a side that are big on hitting you hard from free-kicks and corners so we need to defend better this time out."

Reports in the financial press this week in Portugal has revealed that part of Vilamoura has been put up for sale by the American fund Lone Star. Lone Star is also currently negotiating the purchase of 75 percent of Portuguese bank Novo Banco.
An initial report by Jornal de Negócios indicates that the private equity fund is looking to offload sections of its Vilamoura assets, with Spanish real estate consultancy and managers Aguirre Newman reportedly among those interested.
Vilamoura World, which currently manages the Algarve resort that covers 1,700 hectares, when contacted by The Portugal News, opted not to comment. The news comes after Lone Star purchased large parts of the resort in March 2015.
Estimates are that if any potential sale were to go ahead that it would not be complete before the end of 2017.
Other reports meanwhile indicate that undeveloped land and Vilamoura's iconic marina will be part of a future proposed deal.
Lone Star reportedly paid 200 million euros for its share of the resort back in 2015, after Catalunya Banc, held by BBVA, paid previous owner André Jordan 360 million euros for the resort's transferrable real estate assets.

Reuters has expanded its television coverage of Africa with the launch of a dedicated daily video feed, Reuters Africa Daily.
It will go out five days a week and will average four stories per day.
It will be scripted in both English and French and provide a full range of news from the continent, including politics, business and foreign investment, arts and culture, sport, science, and lifestyle.
Tony Donovan, managing director of Reuters Television, said: "Reuters has been reporting on Africa since the 1870s, and tries to avoid reporting African stories only when there is disaster. We include the context around a story – showing progress when it is achieved, and giving a wider sense of the issues and countries. We cover all aspects of life in Africa, not just the geopolitical news agenda.
"Both African and global broadcasters have been eager for more varied and balanced news and features from the African continent. Reuters Africa Daily now offers the possibility of accessing quality natural sound video news, which broadcasters are able to edit and adapt for their audiences."

The self-cohering tied-array
ASTRON, Oudehoogeveensedijk 4, Dwingeloo, 7991PD, The Netherlands e-mail: email@example.com
Accepted: 26 November 2009
Context. Large radio astronomy multi-element interferometers are frequently used as single dishes in a tied-array mode when signals from separate antennas are added. Phase shifts arising during wave propagation through a turbulent atmosphere can significantly reduce the effective area of an equivalent single dish.
Aims. I aim to give estimates of the impact of the ionosphere and troposphere on the effectiveness of a radio interferometer working in tied-array mode.
Methods. Statistical estimates of the effective area are calculated and the power-law of turbulent atmosphere irregularities has been used. A simple method of tied-array calibration using optimization techniques is proposed.
Results. The impact of phase errors on the effectiveness of tied-arrays are given for low and high frequencies. Computer simulations demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed calibration algorithm.

After watching Kingsman: The Golden Circle, one sentence bounced around my head like the repeated refrain in Elton John's "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting": what's the point? What's the point of any of this? What's the point of destroying the Kingsman (again), of introducing us to the Statesman, of resurrecting Colin Firth? The Golden Circle doesn't have any answers. All it can do is shrug its shoulders and stumble into another arduously overlong action sequence.
The film opens with one of those sequences, as Kingsman agent Eggsy (Taron Egerton) dukes it out with a robo-limbed assassin in a taxi. London taxis and robot arms may sound fun on paper, but on screen it has a weightless, impactless, inconsequential feeling, a feeling shared by all of The Golden Circle's overblown setpieces.
The assassin, it turns out, is ex-Kingsman hopeful Charlie (Edward Holcroft), now working for international drug dealer Poppy (Julianne Moore). Poppy is a spectacularly uninteresting villain. She surrounds herself with 1950s Americana and robot dogs, but her motivations are flimsy and we've seen the psychotically cheery villain too many times for it to be effective here.
Poppy, with Charlie's help, guts the Kingsman, and that refrain starts up again (what's the point, what's the point, what's the point). Weren't the Kingsman neutered in the last one? As the opening gambit of this sequel, it's bafflingly ineffectual.
As Eggsy would say, whatever. The surviving Kingsman, Eggsy and Merlin (Mark Strong, always a pleasure), seek the help of their American cousins, the Statesman. The first Kingsman had a lot to say about British nobility; how being a gentleman was more about poise and confidence than the status of one's birth. The Statesmen get no such complexity. Jeff Bridge's Champagne, Pedro Pascal's Whiskey, and Channing Tatum's Tequila are nothing more than stereotypes of American brashness and Southern gentility. The worst casualty is Halle Berry's tech support Ginger Ale, who has literally nothing to do.
The Golden Circle's uneven, superfluous, pointless nature is a result of the film's near-constant one-upmanship. Director Matthew Vaughn really wants us to know that this is bigger and more inventive than the first. But size and novelty mean nothing if they're sizeable and novel for size and novelty's sake. There is nothing here to match that wonderful pub brawl, those rainbow-hued exploding heads; and not a single thing in a single frame in a single scene to match the barbaric joy of that bloody, blistering, Free Birdin' church massacre. A late game battle fought to that Elton John song comes close, but sadly, no cigar.
Vaughn's cartoonishly brutal signature style is only truly enjoyable when it is in service of something. More specifically, when it is in service of deconstructing something. Kick-Ass was a cartoonishly brutal deconstruction of the superhero film. The first Kingsman was a cartoonishly brutal deconstruction of the spy genre. The Golden Circle isn't deconstructing anything. It's trying to reconstruct the spy genre from the ruins left by its predecessor. But, like an embittered film critic, it can destroy, but it can't create. In a year (like so many this century) spoilt for choice with sequels, prequels, and requels, Kingsman: The Golden Circle is the most disappointing.

Featuring ~ The Lingerie Shoppe
Submitted by Brenda Meadows, owner
of The Lingerie Shoppe in Birmingham, AL
I had been involved in a lot of volunteer work when my children were young. I supported two major groups with my time, raising money to sustain the Alabama Symphony and then with a local group to aid children with hearing disabilities. I also did work with my church. After years of volunteering, a good friend and I decided that we should look into having a business.
Mountain Brook Village is a wonderful place for shops that can offer service for everyday needs as well as wonderful, unique and special things for special occasions. The Lingerie Shoppe had been a part of our community since 1946 and in 1988, we learned it was for sale. It is a full service lingerie shop, including bras and bra fitting, sleepwear, loungewear, foundation, underwear and all associated items. My friend, Betty McMahon, and I decided this would be a great retail niche. We had no business background, but we loved to shop and felt that our volunteer organization skills would serve us well.
We loved it from the outset. Betty retired after ten years and I have continued to find The Lingerie Shoppe a crucial need in our community, and indeed regionally. I look forward each day to going to work. I look at my business as meeting a woman's most intimate needs. I feel this as a responsibility and a privilege. It is wonderful for a woman to rejoice over feeling comfortable and more attractive in her clothes. Our shop is a part of wonderful celebrations-weddings, new babies, special trips, anniversaries, birthdays, going to college, etc. We love for our customers to tell us that Christmas cannot come without our special gift wrapping under the tree.
We, of course, know the last 5 years have been difficult economically, but I have managed thus far, to keep wonderful, affordable, and special merchandise in the shop. I am grateful to wonderful customers for their patronage.
The Lingerie Shoppe is located at 2403 Montevallo Road in Mountain Brook Village, Birmingham, AL

Homework is one of the most annoying issues for students of all ages. In fact, there is hardly a single person who has never complained about having too many assignments, including nerds. Does homework help you learn or simply waste your time? Is it reasonable to give homework from the teacher's point of view? And from the student's?
As any other educational means, homework has its pros and cons, and only under certain conditions it can and will be efficient.
Let's start from cons, for a change. As a matter of fact, homework can be harmful. Usually, it happens when a teacher has no strategy of assigning it and neglects to make sure that it corresponds to what has been learned in class. In this case home assignments not only fail to deepen and enforce one's knowledge, but also confuse a student. Hence worse understanding of the material and ultimately lower academic performance. If the principle of consistency is not complied with, homework is not only useless – it is even harmful.
The same rule applies to oversized home assignments and the related accomplishability principle. Even if the consistency is respected, excessively large home assignments put additional strains on students and reduce their productivity in class. Also, they deprive them of doing extra-curricular activities and leading normal well-balanced life.
Last but not least, while some teachers feel that they have to assign some homework, they don't really understand its purpose and come up with completely useless assignments. Only a half of the projects assigned at school serve any purpose besides keeping one's students busy. In this case, homework is simply a waste of time for every person involved.
On the other hand, home assignments can serve as a powerful educational means. When a student revises and elaborates on what he has learned during the class, it leads to better and deeper understanding. Besides, some of the assignments (essays, to name one) are simply not designed for classroom settings (except of the ones that are included in written exams). That's why it is simply logical and reasonable to leave them for home. Finally, homework can adjust a student to self-discipline and time management, which are two crucial skills for a person in the modern high-efficiency world.
Obviously, homework as a theory is not useful or harmful. It is only a tool, much like a technical device that can be used properly or misused. If a skillful person wields it, homework will serve to extend knowledge and develop one's skills. If not, it can easily lead to adverse outcomes such as anxiety, stress and lagging behind the class. That's why every teacher should follow the principle of relevance, accomplishability and consistency when assigning homework to his students.

Are there certain types of cars with known problems?By kennya | Posted in Uncategorized on Friday, December 1st, 2017 at 7:10 am
There are certain types of vehicles that are known in the car dealer industry to have problems.
Sometimes it's not just the overall brand of vehicle; it could be a specific year model of a specific vehicle that has transmission issues that are known. We figure that out over time, selling as many cars as we do.
We know which vehicles…
cause problems. Because we finance the car ourselves by handling the loan in-house, we don't want you to have issues. We gotta see you every two weeks and talk to you and take payments from you. I don't want to sell a car to you that gives you trouble the entire time you have a loan with us.
I tell my sales guys to keep in mind that we make a little money when you buy one car, but we make a whole lot of money if we sell you 10 over time. Our goal is not to sell a vehicle to you one time. It's to make you a client and have you as a part of our dealership family for life.
None of our cars will see the frontline on any of our three lots until they've been through our service center.
We have a holding lot where all vehicles that we have purchased go first. They sit in line and when it's their turn, go through the reconditioning process with our trained, professional service techs. They fix anything that they can find that is wrong. A lot of times they fix things that aren't going wrong yet but will soon.
Because we provide an exceptional warranty on everything we sell, I'd rather fix it now than worry about fixing it later.
So yeah, we spend twice on a vehicle what the normal buy-here pay-here dealer does; but I also spend twice the amount of money on reconditioning costs than anybody else does. With a free warranty to you because I want you to be a customer for life, I don't want you to experience any problems with your vehicle. We fix everything we can find that's wrong. We take care of everything on the front end, so that you won't have trouble on the back end.
It would be silly of us not to take care of you and your car ahead of time. Someone might say, "Oh, this is just another car dealer saying that they improved the vehicle—make sure you have it checked out." We are so confident in what we offer; we actually encourage you to do that.
We provide a free warranty, and that's important to know. Even the local big-name franchise dealerships in town don't offer that. Go ahead—walk their lots. On every one of their used cars for sale, there is a window sticker that says, "as is, no warranty, but a service contract is available." What that tells you is they're going to sell a service contract or an after-market warranty, to fix a car that will likely break down soon.
We don't do that. We give you a free warranty on everything we sell. We really don't want to have to fix it later. So if there's an issue that we find, we fix it now.
Other dealers that offer a service contract often times fix whatever is obvious, but if there is a marginal issue, they'll leave it and let you take the problem up with whoever the service contract provider sends you. The responsibility for getting your car fixed is then not on the dealer who sold it to you.
We don't put lipstick on a pig.

Political commentator and Labour activist Owen Jones spoke at a sold out event at The Dukes Theatre in Lancaster on Thursday night, May 19.
The baby faced 31-year-old and self proclaimed "plastic northerner" talked in earnest for over an hour about the "politics of hope and fear", before taking questions from the audience.
Jones, from Sheffield, but now living in London, said that politics across the UK, Europe and America was heading in two directions - one of hope, and one of fear - and that "cynical resignation" of injustices helped to prop up further injustice, and that the cycle needed to be broken.
He talked about Trump vs Sanders and Corbyn vs UKIP, and said the politics of fear was taking hold in France, Spain and Scandinavia too.
He said: "All injustice is temporary and transient.
"What's more patriotic than rooting out injustice in our own country?"
It was fairly obvious that Jones was preaching to the converted, nods of approval and hums of agreement rippled through the seats as he discussed the Panama Papers and the morality of tax avoidance, the economic crash, education, the fall in wages, property prices and the social housing crisis and its connection to loan sharks, the EU referendum and the refugee crisis.
He said he wanted to see "the end of oppression and a society run by the majority", and that "austerity" was a political ideology that isn't working.
It was stirring stuff and Jones didn't pull any punches when describing his reasoning behind the idea that the law exists to crack down on the poor.
Referring to the bank bailout he said it was a case of "socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor" and the use of "the politics of envy" to divide people.
Despite a bleak and depressing first half breaking down what he considers to be society's uncomfortable truths, he said "the left" needed to learn how to engage better with people, and use stories to exemplify facts. Something, he said, that "the right" had managed to get right.
He said that the proof that people power works is that the Transatlantic Trade Investment Partnership (TTIP), was now "lying in ruins" due to people organising across Europe to oppose it.
In Europe he said the "out" vote would be a "vindication for the far right", and that he was voting "in" to take part in a groundswell of opposition to growing inequalities.
He said that economists, academics and theorists from across Europe were coming together to work out an alternative future.
He paid tribute to Lancaster MP Cat Smith, and the recently launched website www.documentingdissent.org.uk, which maps out the history of activism, dissent and ultimate change through movements such as the chartists and sufragettes in Lancaster.
He said this was never an act of kindness from the ruling classes, but a hard won battle, which "we don't talk about enough".
Questions from the audience included: "Do you think the only way to rid the world of capitalism is through revolution?", "To what extent is local grassroots politics the key to politics of hope?", "How do we push educational policy back to where it's affordable to young people? How do we make it optimistic?", and "Will Canada be an inspiration to others through the voting in of its new Prime Minister Justin Trudeau?"
After the show, Molly Rose, 17, from Lancaster, who was in the audience said: "Even though I have a growing interest on this topic, and Owen Jones raised some thought provoking points for discussion, I felt quite patronised by his approach to the youth of today.
"I was interested by the points he raised and felt he had an engaging approach to the topic, however I felt he lacked passion in certain areas, one of these was to the youth.
"He addressed the matter in a tenuous way and almost as though he was simply saying it to tick a box.
"He concluded that teens weren't interested in attending political events, and the implication was the common misnomer that the only way to motivate us was through a stereo typical pop song or football match, because that's all my generation are interested in.
"I hoped to have been presented with tools to empower me to channel my growing frustration at how helpless I am in having an effect on the world I am growing up in.
"Instead I was told I needed to do 'something'. How can you expect young people to be inspired when you don't inspire them."
Jones appears often on the TV, radio and as a Guardian columnist, but the Politics of Hope tour of the country expanded on his thoughts and ideas and presented an alternative and thought provoking take on the state of politics and society in the twenty first century.

Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus) Wing
As the common name implies, the monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) is the king of the insect order Lepidoptera. Known throughout North America, these colorful butterflies are able to migrate long distances (up to 3,000 miles) in round-trips to winter roosts in Mexico and California. Their migration is monitored by students through Monarch Watch, an international tagging program based at the University of Kansas in Lawrence, and using numbered, 9-millimeter-diameter round, polypropylene tags placed on the underside of hindwings.

First things first, I love my dermatologist. He is so smart and so sweet, his bedside manner is impeccable and his constant desire to learn more about dermatology and cancer prevention leaves me feeling like I'm in good hands.
It also doesn't hurt that he is kinda good looking. So…you know…the annual full body mole check is not a problem for me. At all.
He is actually quite adorable…after not having seen him in a couple of years (my bad, shut up, the melanoma is only on my Dad's side of the family…that I know of) he comes bursting into the exam room and says, "Jenn! It's so good to see you! Congratulations, I heard you got married!!"
My excitement dimmed a bit and I replied, "Oh…uh…yeah, it's been a little while since we got married."
Dr. C., "Oh, well, it has been a couple of years since I've seen you, right? So…it seems like it just happened!"
Me, "Oh, yeah it has been..you've met him though, he's come in before."
Dr. C., "So, how long have you been married?"
Me, "Eight years."
Dr. C., "Oh….it has been a long time."
Me, "Ha, I know."
I also love how he is both aggressive with treatment, but also conservative in it's application.
For example, at my appointment, as he is going over every nook and cranny of my body, he is measuring spots and noting them on my file. He asks about moles I've had removed and how the tissue is in the area. But, and this is not a complaint, every time he comes to a mole that he is paying A LOT of attention to, he'll ask me, very nonchalantly, "Is this bothering you?"
I reply, "Uh, not really. But honestly, the better question is, is this bothering YOU? You're the expert."
He'll laugh, but then get serious again in a holy-shit-this-might-be-cancer sort of way so I'll blurt out, "YES, it's bothering me."
And then he looks relieved and says, "Oh good...then I'll just biopsy this...just in case."
"Just in case" is code for: Increase Your Life Insurance Policy - You Might Die.

"What I mean is that someone sees a race, and they think that's what you do. They sort of know you had to train, but they weren't watching then, so they don't understand how incredibly much of it there is. But to us, it's almost the whole thing. Racing is just this little tiny ritual we go through after everything else has been done. It's a hood ornament." - Again to Carthage; John L. Parker Jr.
As I sit here trying to figure how to get 600+g of carbs into me in the next 12 hours, I began to think about how important both today and especially tomorrow will be in relation to the 18 weeks of training now complete. How so few individual days seem to play such a vital role in the success of but one event lasting only a tiny fraction of the time that went to prepare for it. Training is what we do, it's the essential process lasting weeks, months and perhaps years. The race/the result is what we see, it's how we're judged and evaluated. Validated. It's the consequence, the outcome, the performance that is valued. As so the process, the preparation, the training is all but forgotten. One day out of hundreds determines the quality of our efforts. This almost seems unfair, unjust. Some will look forward to the end of the race, imagining the number on the clock, a job well done, a medal, a prize, a placing. I look forward to every second of the race: the experience, the act, the effort and energy. The emotion, the concentration, the pain and exhilaration.
18 weeks. 126 days. 13 days off. 113 days on. 10 x 20+ milers. 80 x 10+ milers. 2134km total. 17km/day. 5 tune-up races. 5 PBs. 4 pairs of shoes. Early mornings. Early nights. Hills. Intervals. Pick-ups. Tempo. Strides. Blisters. Bandages. Bleeding. And way too many beers.
And it all comes down to tomorrow. One run. One race. 42.2km. 26.2 miles. The Toronto Goodlife Marathon. 160min? Or less!
In many ways, tomorrow represents the culmination of a dream. A dream that began the minute I crossed the line at Scotiabank (16 October 2011) and saw that time on the clock: 2:49:55. Pretty damn good for my first result at the distance and one I will always remember. But it was barely over and I was already thinking about the next one. Thinking about how much better I could be; how much faster I could go; what that would take; and how good it would feel once again.
So I set my sights higher and started again...
I rested, I recovered and I got ready to do it all again. And I did. And now the days, weeks and months long past all fade together and become but details and digits. But in those individuals runs, races and workouts; the recoveries, the easy days and the days off; the pre and post-run chatter, the socializing and the strategizing; the pre-race planning, race revisions and post-race dissections... that is where the true meaning of it all emerges. That is where the passion ignites, the flame is fuelled and the love of it all burns brightest. This is where it ceases to be about me as an individual but becomes about us as a collective. It becomes about you, my closest friends, my mentors and my family. None of this would matter if it weren't for those with whom I share this incredible journey. To my most amazing friends: None of this means anything without. And no matter what happens tomorrow, I'll be glad for the time we spent in getting there and the process by which we prepared. Thanks a million.

Happy July 4th! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸
As you all know, I absolutely love Denim. The beginning of denim was the beginning of what I call the 3 C's – Cool, Casual and Comfort.
What I love about Denim is the versatility. You can rock it in different styles, cuts and colors.
Today, I'm rocking them in overalls. Short overalls in particular are playful, super casual and comfortable, especially for the summer months. All you need is a tee or shirt to wear underneath based on the look you're going for and spice it up with some accessories and you're good to go.
I really enjoyed taking these pics for you guys, so I hope you love ❤ it!
Overalls: You can get similar from here, here or here.

text: March 24, 2017 | NVC PR | Leave a comment As we reflect on our recent Northwest Vista College state and national recognitions, I am grateful for the phenomenal work of our students, faculty and staff who each and every day produce outstanding and measurable results. While this collective effort has been recognized at the state and national levels, there remains many more opportunities for growth and further student success. This year, NVC is ranked as the No. 1 community college in Texas for 2017 by BestColleges.com, and marks the first time that NVC has earned the top spot on the state's list. The previous two years, NVC was listed second among Texas community colleges. The ranking is based on key performance indicators, such as acceptance, retention, graduation, enrollment rates and loan default percentages as a measure of graduates' success. The data comes from the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Educational Statistics. It includes the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) and College Navigator. Another commendable recognition is NVC being ranked among the top 25 community colleges in the nation for Hispanics according to Hispanic Outlook (HO) on Education Magazine. Hispanic enrollment grew from 44 percent in 2005 to 62 percent during the 2014-2015 academic year. The number of associate degrees earned by Hispanic students grew from 38 percent in 2005 to 58 percent in the 2014-2015 academic year. NVC is one of only two local colleges on the list — at No. 12 in the nation — among community colleges. The magazine based their ranking on data from the Department of Education. While NVC's achievements can be attributed to many factors, many of them are highlighted in the magazine's article. There are many subjective college rankings. The credibility of the two previously mentioned ranking organizations is enhanced by their selection methodology being based on authentic and meaningful data as collected by the National Center for Educational Statistics and the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System. Colleges and universities are required to submit this information to be eligible for Title IV financial aid funding. The rankings are designed to help potential students and their families make the best decision in selecting a college. NVC faculty and staff and our community partners already know that NVC is a good investment. But potential students and their families may not know that if they have never been to our campus. They also may not know that last year alone, NVC has seen a 51 percent increase in students earning associate degrees and 13 percent increase in students earning certificates of achievement. What is even more remarkable is that we have been producing results with more student enrollment, now reaching 17,000. Knowing that each student has different needs and may encounter different obstacles in achieving their goals, we are once again reminded of the critical role we play at every step of the student's journey: recruitment, advising, enrollment, the classroom, faculty-student interaction, support labs, counseling, student life and beyond. There are many moments in a student's journey where their enthusiasm could diminish and their propensity to finish what they started could wane. NVC's spirit and the touchstones (values) we hold dear continue to remind and inspire us to remain steadfast in helping our students realize their goals, so they, in turn, can transform our community. Thank you for being part of NVC and for your dedication to student success!
