Issues such as climate change and the need for alternative energy sources make environmental laws more important than ever. Environmental regulations seek to limit pollution and to minimise the impact of human activity on the natural world. This sweeping objective means that environmental lawyers are involved in a wide range of matters, from health and safety, risk management, contaminated land, waste, renewable energy and environmental finance; to commercial and property transactions, nuclear law and litigation. Clients can include individuals, community groups, companies of all sizes, local authorities and governments.
Ben Standing's career choices have always been driven by his passions, rather than the potential pay packet. His interest in law was first ignited during his undergraduate years at the University of Birmingham. "I studied labour economics as part of my degree and one of the modules was employment law. I really enjoyed it and decided to study the Graduate Diploma in Law – my interest just kept growing from there," he explains.
After jumping through the qualification hoops with ease, Ben secured a training contract at Browne Jacobson. "It's always quite hectic, being a trainee," he recalls. "You get pulled in all sorts of directions and get on with some teams more than others, but I really enjoyed the experience. It's all about finding your niche and the people you can work with."
That niche turned out to be environmental law, which involves issues that are close to Ben's heart. In fact, Browne Jacobson's prestigious environmental and public planning practice was a key reason that Ben chose to apply to train at the firm. He has not been disappointed – since joining, he has risen through the ranks to represent bodies such as Natural England and has even played a role in the creation of a new Welsh environmental protection body, Natural Resources Wales (NRW). He describes the diversity of the practice area: "A lot of environmental law focuses on property. My team primarily represents public sector clients – such as local councils and environmental bodies – but we also work alongside our colleagues in the property team, whose clients are often in the private sector. We look at environmental issues which come up in relation to land – how they affect planning permission, and sale and purchase agreements when land is sold. We also advise local authorities and private bodies in relation to the contaminated land regime. Another aspect of our work is reviewing environmental reports to look at potential issues that could arise regarding liability and identify relevant clauses which could therefore be required. I personally help to advise public bodies, such as Natural England, on environmental impact assessments and matters concerning sites of special scientific interest. My work on environmental impact assessment in relation to agriculture for the Welsh government sees me travelling all over Wales to present cases in front of planning inspectors."
Ins and outs of judicial review
Public and administrative law is another important element of the practice. Judicial review is central to this area and, as a representative of several public bodies, Ben spends a lot of his time defending clients against judicial review challenges. "Our job is to make sure that the decisions which public bodies enter into are lawfully made and cannot be reversed or quashed," he explains. "The first stage is the permission stage, where someone submits a claim and the defending party then has 21 days to respond by submitting summary grounds of resistance. A decision is then made by the court on whether to grant permission for the claimant to progress the matter; he or she is only allowed to do so if there is an arguable case which justifies full investigation of the substantive merits. If permission is granted, we move on to the substantive stage. In our practice, often matters don't go to a substantive hearing because we are successful at the permission stage. However, if necessary we will robustly defend our client's decision in court."
When it comes to judicial review, a lot depends on the cards you are dealt initially. "The point at which we become involved has an impact," admits Ben. "If you're instructed when a decision is being made, you look to ensure that all the correct procedures have been followed and that the regulations are being complied with. A common reason for challenge is that the body has not adequately explained in writing its reasons for doing something. Coming up with a reasoned, logical decision and explaining why you have made it is the best way to defend against judicial review. However, if you're instructed after a decision has already been made, you just have to make the best of the situation and try to collect evidence to explain why the body has made its decision. In the worstcase scenario, you have to advise your client that it has made a mistake."
"I care about green issues, and working for these bodies to protect the environment by making people comply with their environmental responsibilities makes me feel that I might be doing some good"
Green at heart
Flying the flag for causes that he cares about is an understandable source of job satisfaction. "I like the feeling of being on the right side, to be honest," says Ben. "I care about green issues and working for these bodies to protect the environment by making people comply with their environmental responsibilities makes me feel that I might be doing some good." Nowhere was this more evident than in Browne Jacobson's role in the formation of NRW: "The firm's property team handled the property aspect of the deal, while our job was to transfer responsibilities from the Countryside Council for Wales, the Environment Agency and the Forestry Commissioners to the new body, which involved amending the relevant legislation by drafting an order which transferred those powers. I had only just qualified, so the experience stands out as a highlight – it was really rewarding to see what we had written become law."
Looking ahead, Ben is concerned at the amount of holes that remain to be filled in the environmental regime, as well as the possibility of existing protections being eroded. "We're primarily involved in making sure that people comply with the legislation that is there, but there should be more legislation being put in place to protect the environment," he says. "Meanwhile, the decision to leave the European Union is hugely significant, because most of our environmental law – on water, waste, birds and habitats, to name a few – stems from EU directives. I am concerned that some people are looking to unpick the legislative framework concerning the environment and this could have significant negative impacts, especially in relation to biodiversity."
Ben goes on to advise that succeeding in this area of law requires serious dedication. "There aren't many of us environmental lawyers out there, are there?" he muses. "You need to be passionate about what you're doing because, whether you're acting for public bodies or claimants, you won't want to be in this for the money – neither of these types of client have much to spend on legal fees. That said, it's a hard area to get into – there aren't that many firms practising environmental law and I was fortunate enough to join one of them, complete a seat with the team during my training and fill a vacancy when the opportunity arose. When choosing your firm, it would be wise to apply to those which practise a broad range of environmental law, not just the property side, which a lot of firms do. This area of law would be quite difficult to cross into at a later date, I think – you need to get some experience early on."

I am not the super organized type. I'm also easily distracted. This one-two punch to my personality has been something I've had to learn to wrangle. Through the years, I've come up with ways to keep my classroom (and life in general) simple. KEEP IT SIMPLE is one of my life mottos.
Classroom jobs were always the bane of my teacher existence. The charts, sticks, clips, or whatever way to manage them. The remembering. Oh the remembering killed me. Every Friday after school or early Monday morning, doing the rotating. I've seen teachers who rotate jobs daily and to them I say, 'I have no idea how you do it.' This also took valuable time away reminding children of new jobs, routines, expectations, etc. For me, it added chaos where I wasn't looking for any.
Then, about six or seven years ago I had an epiphany. NO MORE CLASSROOM JOBS. That is, no more defined classroom jobs. As part of my morning message each day, one child is first (the line leader) and another is last (the line caboose). One day, when I'd had enough of the job chart (and let's be real my job chart wasn't cute) - I announced to my class, "No more jobs! Each day, whoever is first and last will be my helpers that day and do any jobs needed!"
And like the clouds parting and revealing both the sun and a rainbow after a storm, the job chart went in the recycle bin.
Now let me be clear, for many teachers, the classroom job chart is not a big deal. They enjoy it and so do their students. It just wasn't for me. I don't think my students have missed it either. Everyone is still a helper and gets to feel special. This has really worked for me and created one less 'thing' for me to micro-manage in the classroom.
How do you handle classroom jobs? Any tips or words of wisdom to share? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.

Unique Flooring Ideas for your InteriorsApril 27, 2015 11:01 am
When it comes to your flooring, you don't just have to choose between wood or carpet. There's a huge number of options if you're willing to work a little longer for a unique interior. Most of these options aren't even very expensive – for example, the penny floor is just £1.44 per square foot. – sometimes, it definitely pays to think outside the box.
For example, the majority of materials for this floor are basically free (if you're really, really into your beer). From further away, the bottle caps look like an intricate pattern but you can see what they really are when you look a little closer. It's a great talking point and fantastic way to add a unique feature to your bathroom without breaking the bank.
Or if you prefer something a little different, you can take a leaf out of the Hippodrome's book and create a floor made of pennies. It's surprisingly cheap to do and the sheen is just beautiful.
If you're not too superstitious, how about a broken mirror floor? Just smash up some mirrors and make sure that your cover them with a clear plastic so that they're safe.
Or, if you prefer the look of records to shards of glass, this LP floor (photographed by Indabelle) is perfect. Just make sure that you don't use your favourites!
Choosing the Right Material
As you can see, you can use a variety of materials to make your floor. Ultimately, they need to be safe, durable, and relatively flat. Even if you don't want to go through the pain of gluing 5000 pennies to the floor of your loft conversion, you can use paint or tiles to give yourself an unusual and cheap floor. Just painting your floorboards or using reclaimed wood can lift the room.Tags: flooring, interior design

The movies and announcements just keep coming. Thinking back to when I was a kid, imagine how mind blowing it would be to know that when I grew up I would live in a world with, Lord of the Rings movies, X-Men movies, a full blown Avengers franchise! It shakes the 7-year-old chive in me to the core. This months top release is just another film that I could have never dreamed possible 20+ years ago. Alright, alright, lets stop fooling around and get into it…
5. Bad Santa 2
Thirteen years after the release of Bad Santa, finally the elusive sequel that has been discussed for years gets its release date. Billy Bob Thornton reprises his role as belligerent Willie Soke, this time joined by his mother Sunny, played by the always wonderful Kathy Bates. This sequel is sure to be filled by the alcohol influenced, greedy comedy of the original.
4. Moana
Disney's newest animated features Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson as Hawaiian demi-god, Maui. A promised action packed adventure, that by Disney standards is sure to be full of fun and laughs for the whole family.
3. Arrival
The new science fiction film, themed with alien contact on Earth, based off the short story, Story of Your Life by Ted Chiang. Amy Adams portrays a linguistics professor trying to find a way to communicate with alien spaceships before things get out of hand. Previews of this film look intriguing, as it looks to be inspired by the deep plots of a Carl Sagan book.
2. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
Returning to the magical world of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, the author is taking her first stab at screen writing. One thing is for sure, the booknerd community is excited. The first look at how wizarding effects North America, and sure to be full of many mythological creatures. If nothing else, this film should be a lot of fun.
1. Doctor Strange
This movie looks nutbar! The next installment of Marvel's growing cinematic line-up, Doctor Strange is a new approach for the comic-film industry, incorporating a major magic element. The themes have struggled in comics for a long time, but, so did titles such as Guardians of the Galaxy. Doctor Strange's transfer to film should work well, as the imagery looks spectacular, and Benedict Cumberbatch is flawless casting. If Marvel could make such a great Ant-Man film, this should raise the bar.
Thanks booknerds, can't wait for next months movie magic.

Dear Motor Medics,
I have been looking at trucks to be used as both primary transportation and for pulling a camper in the summer. I have a half ton gas powered truck now that is used for about 20,000 miles per year but after upgrading my camper to a larger size this past summer I don't feel it is safe to use as a pull truck any longer. I am a Ford guy and want to go with a diesel truck in a 3/4 or 1-ton model 4×4 but hear that most of the trucks in my price range are equipped with a 6.0 engine and that they have some inherent problems. What kind of things go wrong with the engine and what can be done to fix them? I may be willing to buy one and make the repairs.
Thanks, Doug in Kalamazoo Michigan
Dear Doug,
It is smart of you to think safety. You should never pull with a truck that is too small for the job or safety will be compromised. The issues we see with the 6.0 are usually the egr cooler and the engine oil cooler. There are some really strong aftermarket parts available to update the engine and once done we have seen greatly improved strength and no repeat failures so far. There are some great deals to be had on the 6.0 and if you find one budget for the upgrades to help prevent major future breakdowns.
Take care, the Motor Medics

Houston rookie wins MLS player of week award
Houston rookie Will Bruin won MLS player of the week today following his hat trick against D.C. United. Here's the release from the league:
Houston Dynamo forward Will Bruin was voted Major League Soccer Player of the Week by the North American Soccer Reporters (NASR) for Week 7 of the 2011 MLS season. Bruin scored a hat trick in the Dynamo's 4-1 victory over D.C. United. Bruin becomes the first player of 2011 to record a hat trick and the first rookie this season to be named Player of the Week. See the full match highlights HERE.
Bruin put the Dynamo ahead in the fourth minute after Geoff Cameron stole the ball in the D.C. half. Cameron slotted a pass behind the D.C. backline, putting in Bruin alone to face goalkeeper Bill Hamid. Bruin coolly fired a low shot inside the near-post for the 1-0 lead.
With the game tied 1-1 in the 41st minute, Cameron sent Brad Davis into the left corner with a through ball. Reaching the ball just before it reached the end line, Davis delivered a curling cross to Bruin, who beat his marker for an emphatic header into the net.
In the 57th minute, Bruin connected on another Davis cross to complete his hat trick. This time Davis' pinpoint service came from a free kick on the left flank. In a crowded penalty area, Bruin timed his leap perfectly and smashed a header just beneath the crossbar, offering Hamid no chance.
Bruin was selected 11th overall by Houston at the 2011 MLS SuperDraft after scoring 33 goals in 66 games over three seasons at Indiana University. He was a finalist for the M.A.C. Hermann Award as a junior.
Bruin has four goals this season for Houston and is the fourth rookie in MLS history to score a hat trick; Brian Maisonneuve, Pat Noonan, and Zack Schilawski are the others. Bruin is the second youngest player in League history to score a hat trick (21 years, 187 days – 17 days older than Stern John was in 1998).
The MLS Player of the Week is selected each week of the regular season by a panel of journalists from NASR. The group consists of members of print, television, radio and online media. More information and membership information can be found at http://www.soccerreporters.com/.
This week I gave my No. 1 vote to Bruin, my No. 2 to Brad Evans.

What's not to love about 'Live Through This' (DGC, 1994)? Who doesn't want to be the girl with the most cake? This is a great Hole album. I loved it when it came out and I still love it now. I was lucky enough to live near Seattle during this time and the scene was amazing. A little sad considering Kurt Cobain was found dead just a few days before this dropped and I always think about that when I hear a song from this album.
On a different note. I'm switching music sources. I wasn't really happy with Spotify so I've moved on to the new Apple Music. It works for me because it has a large music data base and I've been a long time Apple user. I'll let you know how it goes.

This is my new Teajar, covered with a ten moku glaze, tian mu in chinese- fired in reduction ( when the air in the kiln is reduced) and we crash cooled it to get this deep black..
"Tenmoku (also spelled "temmoku" and "temoku") is a dark glaze with a surface that resembles oilspotting.
It is comprised of feldspar, limestone, and iron oxide. The more quickly a piece is cooled, the blacker the glaze will be. Tenmoku takes its name from the 天目 (Mandarin: tiān mù; Japanese: ten moku; ) a mountain temple in China where iron-glazed bowls were used for tea. "Source Wikipeadia
Tenmoku glaze was first documented and used in the mountainous Fuchien Province in China - during the T'ang Dynasty - 618 - 9O7. These years are recognized as the Golden Years of Art and Literature in China. Later, during the Sung Dynasty - 96O - 1279 - this technique of glazing and firing became fine-tuned and perfected."
Tenmoku's are known for their variability. During their heating and cooling, several factors influence the formation of iron crystals within the glaze. A long firing process and a claybody which is also heavily colored with iron increase the opportunity for iron from the clay to be drawn into the glaze. While the glaze is molten, iron can migrate within the glaze to form surface crystals, as in the "oil spot" glaze, or remain in solution deeper within the glaze for a rich glossy color.(- Which is what we did here! -)
A longer cooling time allows for maximum surface crystals. Potters can "fire down" a kiln to help achieve this effect. During a normal firing, the kiln is slowly brought to a maximum temperature by adding fuel, then fueling is stopped and the kiln is allowed to cool slowly by losing heat to the air around it. To fire down a kiln, the potter continues to add a limited amount of fuel after the maximum temperature is reached to slow the cooling process and keep the glazes molten for as long as possible.
Tenmoku glazes can range in color from dark plum (persimmon), to yellow, to brown, to black.
Tenmoku glazes have been used by great art pottery artists in Mashiko, Japan - including Shoji Hamada and English artist Bernard Leach."source e Yakimono.
EN Français ..
Voici ma nouvelle jarre Ten Moku ou Tian Mù en chinois, c'est une glasure à base de Feldspath, carbonate de calcium et d'oxide de fer. Apres une cuisson en atmosphere de 'reduction' où l'oxygène à l'interieur du four est réduite j'ai rapidement refroidi le four pour que cette glasure devienne bien noire .. une puissance se dégage de cette couleur.
C'est pendant la dynastie des Tang que cette glasure à été découverte puis perfectionné sous celle des Sung.
Je l'utilise pour mon Fukamushi préféré le shinzu no ten, Elle pourrait etre également destiné à un dong ding torréfié ou un Tie guan yin bien corsé.
Mais revenons à cette odeur de Fukamushi cha ...
ça sent....... tellement bon...... le fruit des bois.... framboise sauvage mixé au chlorophyle; j'y enfourne mon museau tel un sanglier qui cherche sa truffe.

This healing orgonite pyramid uses a combination of orgonite and healing crystals selected to open up your heart and attune you to the vibration of Unconditional Love. You can use this pyramid to manifest a beautiful new romance, to strengthen self-love, or to start feeling those joyous 'in-love' feelings in your everyday life, for no particular reason at all.
• Rose quartz is the crystal of unconditional love, a powerful yet gentle heart chakra healer, bringing deep inner healing and fostering self-love. Rose quartz opens your eyes to the beauty of the Universe and the interconnectedness of all that exists.
• Garnet is a stone of love and passion. Where rose quartz is soothing, garnet is energising, bringing regeneration and a lust for life. It is a root chakra stone that can correct blockages or imbalances in sexual energy.
• Rhodonite is supportive and nurturing, and is especially effective in healing issues of hurt, betrayal and abandonment. Rhodonite encourages self-love and builds confidence. It stimulates acceptance, forgiveness, and unconditional love for others.
Orgonite is a substance made of resin, metals and quartz that strengthens your body's energy field, helping to protect you from negative energy and EMFs. It is built on the findings of Dr Wilhelm Reich, an Austrian psychiatrist who researched bio-energy (also known as chi or prana) in the earlier half of the 20th century. Crystals work by exposing your energy body to a certain healing frequency, until your natural frequency starts resonate with the crystal's.
This pyramid contains various metal shavings (fine brass, copper, steel and aluminium) encased with resin and varnished to a high gloss. It also contains a quartz crystal and selenite, Dead Sea salt ormus and shungite. This pyramid is created with loving intent to transform people's lives for the better.

Ottawa's Capital Chamber Choir offers a complete presentation of Vigilia: Vespers & Matins, a masterpiece of Finnish choral sacred music by Einojuhani Rautavaara. This a capella work features a wide array of textures and sonorities, with a lot of interplay between soloists and choir, drawn from the traditions of orthodox chant and Nordic harmonies. The listener will feel transported to a cold, dark cathedral church celebrating the mysteries of these ancient monastic services.
Tickets are, as usual, extremely affordable. The basso profundo solo lines are worth the price of admission alone, so do come out to support this extraordinary work that is so extremely rarely presented in Ottawa that probably this is an unique opportunity. Tickets are available on line, from choir members, or at various musical outlets around town.

Band also set their sights on breaking America
Muse's Matt Bellamy has claimed he is disappointed that there aren't more acoustic tracks on the band's new album 'The 2nd Law'.
Speaking to the Daily Star, the frontman jokingly claimed that he and his bandmates still hadn't mastered the art of including more softer and subtle moments on their records.
"I'm disappointed that we don't have many acoustic tracks, more quiet moments," he said, before adding:
When I left the studio after having the laid the foundations for the single 'Madness' it was quite sparse. When I returned two days later, Chris and Dom Howard had put absolutely everything on it.
Bellamy also said he and the rest of the band were eager to try and emulate their UK success in the US, too. "Coldplay are the only English group to have had real success there in the last 15 years," he said, while bassist Christ Wolstenholme added: "You don't think about it when you start, you're just content to be recognized on home soil. But then you want something more."
Muse are set to embark on a world tour later this month, with the band kicking off their global trek later in France on October 16. They will play London's O2 arena later on in the month on October 26 and 27.
Muse knocked Mumford and Sons from the top of the UK Official Album Chart on Sunday (October 7) with their new album, 'The 2nd Law'. The Devon trio's sixth album shifted 108,000 copies in its first week of release, making it the fourth fastest-selling album of the year so far.

ValueStrong Client
To achieve these results, the company hired a young team and trained each member from the ground up. By creating an environment that is challenging but also fun, fair, and personally rewarding, AvAir has benefitted from a near-zero turnover rate in 19 years of operation.
A large part of that early training focused on customer relationships. With years of selling experience in the aviation aftermarket, the company's executive leadership knew the value of earning a customer's trust. This value was instilled into AvAir's team, and they quickly generated new business based on a reputation for delivering a quality product, on time, at a competitive price.
As a privately held company, AvAir is nimble and can act fast. Our team has vast experience, industry knowledge, and is empowered to make decisions. This difference, along with a well-earned reputation for integrity and fairness, attracts alliances from around the world. As a result, customers enjoy an efficient sales process and outstanding value.
Over the past 19 years, our operations have expanded from buying and selling rotable and consumable components (now exceeding 26 million in-stock parts) to offering strategic solutions for meeting the inventory needs of our customers and suppliers.
A global leader in the aviation aftermarket, we continue to stay true to our core values and the personalized service that earns us the trust and business of our customers.
It's simple. We guarantee our pricing to be the best in the industry, with delivery when and where you need it. But even more importantly, whether you want to buy, sell, exchange, loan, lease or consign, AvAir can create a strategic solution that custom-fits your needs.
AvAir is committed to minimizing our impact on the environment. One of the biggest steps we've taken is designing our new facility to be powered primarily with clean solar energy. This results in a tremendous reduction in carbon emissions as compared to conventional energy sources.

Are you wondering how you can bump up your fitness SEO?
Whether you're a local gym, an online trainer, or a freelance trainer, you need to be found by your potential customers.
In fact, 78% of local searches on mobile devices result in offline sales.
Putting your fitness business in a position to capitalize on that can mean a big difference to your bottom line.
Keep reading to learn what it takes for your fitness business to appear high in search results.
Do an SEO Audit
Believe it or not, there are a lot of similarities between fitness and SEO.
When you start to work with fitness clients, the first thing you do is an assessment. Well, when you begin your SEO journey, you do an assessment as well.
The assessment is called an SEO audit.
This takes a little research to find out where your website currently stands in search engine results. You can start by using this keyword research tool, and then search Google and Bing to see how your business shows up.
You'll also want to see how many links you have to your website. The best way to do that is to do a search to find which sites are linking to yours and what anchor text is used.
Finally, you're going to want to check your online reputation. This tool will show you if there are reviews of your business.
Make a note of your results and put them somewhere easily accessible. You're going to refer to your notes every few weeks.
Refine Your Fitness SEO keywords
You may already have keywords that you want to rank for. You want to take that a step further and see if there are other similar keywords you can rank for as well.
Start by making a list of every search term and topic your ideal client would look for if they were looking for your gym or training services.
The next step is to research those keywords using this Keyword Planner tool.
You'll get ideas for other keywords as well. When you're researching keywords, you want to find terms that have a moderate search volume and little competition.
Get More Online Reviews
Did you know that online reviews influence fitness SEO results?
Google provides search results that are relevant to its users. Let's say you searched for a gym in Bethlehem, PA. The results showed gyms that had mediocre to poor reviews.
Would you be impressed with those results? No.
If you're searching for a gym, you want the top gyms to join. Google will show those results based on positive reviews.
How can you get more positive reviews to increase your fitness SEO? Plan out a strategy.
Did you do an online review audit? Did you see any positive or negative reviews?
If you did, respond to them. Thank positive reviewers and reach out to negative reviewers to find out more about their experience.
Maybe there's some way you can turn that situation around. Those responses will encourage more people to write reviews because they know someone is listening.
Next, ask your clients for online reviews. You can do this in your newsletters or on your blog. Make sure you make asking for reviews a regular part of your marketing strategy.
Write a Blog
Fresh content that adds value to your readers will give people a reason to return to your site. It also gives your site a better chance of being ranked highly in search engines.
Don't get nervous about writing. If you're not sure what to write about, ask your clients. Better yet, share your clients' success stories.
Just make sure that people are interested in what you're writing about.
Take a look at this blog.
Notice how this post is easy to read and is something that many fitness folks are interested in.
Use your blog to show off your expertise and incorporate your keywords throughout the articles.
It might take a while to build up content, but it's worth it. Once you get between 21-54 blog posts, traffic can increase as much as 30%.
Make Sure Your Site is Fast and Mobile-Friendly
On the technical side of your website, you need to make sure your website is fast and mobile friendly.
Remember that Google wants to give it's users the best results. As more people are searching on mobile devices, Google isn't going to put a site that's not optimized for mobile at the top of search results.
As a matter of fact, that site probably won't get ranked at all.
You also want to make sure your website is fast. Not just for Google, but for your users. Just a small delay in page loading could cause people to leave your website
Connect Your Site with Reporting Tools
The most important part of fitness SEO is tracking progress. That's why you do an audit at the beginning of the process. You have a baseline to work with and you can tell if your site is moving up the search engine rankings for certain keywords.
The way you can track progress is by connecting your website to a few tools.
The first tool is Google Analytics. This is a free tool that shows you how much traffic your site gets, where it's coming from, and how long people are staying on your site.
This is valuable information that you can use to drive your marketing strategy. You might find out that there are two blog posts that people are reading through. You can alter your marketing to promote those posts more.
The second tool is Google's Search Console. This will give you in-depth information about your website, including how your site ranks in search results.
Think of Fitness SEO Like Training
What did you do to get lean and strong?
You were motivated to work out, you followed a plan, and you executed it consistently.
That's what it takes to get great results in search engine rankings. You can't get in shape sitting on the couch. Nor can you get high search engine rankings by doing nothing.
Now that you know what to do, go get started with this reputation audit tool.
You can still have fun in the process. Check out these SEO comic strips to bring a sense of humor to your work.

This was inspired by a post on Facebook here about removing the Persuasion skill and just using the Spirit attribute.

Category: Alternate rules
Crime and Caper Planning Rules
The following are a some rules inspired by Blades in the Dark1. These rules would be useful in any game that has the players performing lots of heist, though it could be adapted to any situation where the players are likely to get stuck in planning paralysis. As always, before making use of these rules make sure that the group wants to jump-start the planned event and avoid the pre-planning before making use of them.
Pre Job Rule
To begin with instead of having the players make plans and gather equipment that they may or may not need, start by having each of the players making either a notice or investigate roll. Each player then gets one special benny plus one per success or raise they get on the roll. These bennys are used to purchase flash backs during the heist.
Start of Job Rule
Have the players tell you how they are going to start the job. For example are they going to sneak in a window, pretend to be delivery agent, etc. Based on this decision determine the opening skill roll to set the scene. If they succeed they are in a strong position to start the job. If they fail they are facing some sort of opposition.
An example of this would be sneaking into a window to gain access to the house you are going to rob. On a success, you have climbed in the window and are ready to start moving to the score you wanted. On a failure, you have tripped an alarm and any guards in the house are on alert and looking for intruders.
Flashback Rule
When ever the players get into some sort of trouble, they can spend one of their flashback bennies to set a flashback scene. This scene doesn't change anything that has already been declared can't be changed by the flashback, but it can be re-framed.
An example of this would be due to a series of bad stealth rolls, the crew is discovered by the guards. One of the players could play one of the flashback bennies setting a scene where the crew was negotiating with these guards bribing them to look the other way during the score. As long as the interaction is successful during the flashback, then that re-frames the current scene from a combat to something where the guards just tell them to be quiet and continue on with their patrol.
There are some things that I am not sure about with these rules. I always want the group to have at least a few flashback opportunities, and that was why I set the number to 1 plus the number of successes and raises. The problem might be that this generates too many, so this might need to be tweaked to reduce the number given based on how it plays and even how pulpy you want the jobs to be.
Anyway, I hope these rules provides some value to others and as I make more use of them, I will post updates or extra commentary on them.

Vans Fall 2010 "Glitch Checker" range is decorated with what looks at first glance like a QR Code. However they are not scanable, maybe Vans should have talked to Patrick Donnelly 🙂
2 thoughts on "Vans Shoes QR Code (Almost)"
Too funny… I can't stop laughing thinking about this. The shoe looks so scannable.
The inspiration for the pattern looks like it came from a 2D Barcode. I can't believe someone at Vans did not pick up on this and create an interactive shoe…
This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing. No doubt someone will do a *real* QR code on an apparel line soon.

Community Publishing System is live.
I'm a big fan of encouraging people to add comments to Help documents to provide tips, links to tutorials, and other useful information.
But, I have to admit that plain-text comments aren't always the best medium for conveying information. Sometimes you need to use formatting, images, movies, and more words to get information across.
That's why I was glad to see the launch of the Adobe Community Publishing System (CPS).
Here's what the CPS folks have to say about it:
We're pleased to announce the Adobe Community Publishing 1.1 beta is live. This new AIR application lets anyone with an Adobe ID publish content on Adobe products and technology directly to Adobe.com.
Community members can contribute tips, movies, code snippets, and more with easy-to-use templates. Contributions are moderated by community experts. Plus, everyone in the community can rate and comment on contributions.
Contributing is easy
1. Download the Community Publishing app: Adobe Community Publishing System (CPS)
2. Author your tip using a simple template
3. Publish it to Adobe.com
Content goes live within minutes and is automatically added to community help search. Exceptional contributions will be promoted in Help & Support pages, Developer Connection, Design Center, and considered for inclusion in Adobe partner publications.
They're right about the interface being easy to use and immediate. It took only a few minutes for me to test it out and write up this little tip/article: "Remove all colors from an image but one".
It helped that there was an article that explained some parts of the interface: "Adobe Community Publishing tips"
You can see all of the submissions here: Community Publishing index page.
So, take it for a spin. I'll be keeping an eye on the submissions for After Effects and including links to the especially good stuff when I update the After Effects Help document.

They say: a corrective foundation that smoothes the skin's surface to minimise the appearance of 3D imperfections. With Vichy Dermablend 3D Correction only one application is enough to turn acne-prone skin into a smoother, more even, "ready to face the world" complexion.
I say: It does exactly what it says on the tin. My skin looked so clear wearing this foundation, I am very impressed. One layer was enough coverage to hide any imperfections and redness. It is oil free and gave a matte finish. The number 1 thing i loved with this foundation is my skin didn't feel caked or heavy, it felt like it could breathe it was so light. I wore shade 25.
My only downfall with this foundation was that it is only available in 5 shades so the colour choice is limited.
Overall I really like this foundation, it provides long lasting full coverage and is priced at €23.00 which is very reasonable for such a high quality foundation. It is definitely one I will be repurchasing.
It is currently available in CH Chemists, Tralee.

Sam Senior | Evansville Indiana Senior Session
Sam wanted an urban setting for his senior portraits, so downtown Evansville was the perfect backdrop for this Mt. Carmel senior. Sam was so natural in front of the camera, from street style around Penny Lane Coffee House to the more formal look with the skyline in the background, he rocked his session.
I've known Sam and his family for as long as I can remember, and I love it when life comes full circle and I get to capture senior portraits for kids I've known since they were little.
Sam and Teresa, thank you for choosing me to document this special time in your life! Best wishes Sam as you choose your career path and enter college; I know you're going to have so much fun!

In my introduction to literary genre course this semester, we had a running joke that all started with my introductory letter to students in January asking them to consider what humor could do. A bit of background: I begin and end each semester with the epistolary form – in August I introduce myself and my goals for the semester, as well as my rationale for selecting the various readings, and in May, my students craft their own letters back to me regarding their experiences in the course, their continuing struggles, and their diverse accomplishments. My students remark how these letters help them to reflect on everything they have learned, to express a new-found confidence they often feel as young writers and critical thinkers, to feel connected to their professor and their own learning, and to garner a sense of responsiveness and engagement for the future learning of peers who will take this course. Most students this semester examined their appreciation for the theme of our course, incorporating our joke in their responses: humor can do that!
You see, as a professor, like many of us I'm sure, I find myself constantly thinking about the progress of my students and my classes, especially while I'm performing tasks that permit my mind to wander and reflect, such as grocery shopping, waiting in line at the post office (yes, I still frequent the USPS), or trying to fall asleep. Recently, while sitting and waiting and waiting and waiting in my doctor's office, I came across an abstract in an October 2003 issue of Science (see Eisenberger, Lieberman, and Williams' abstract) detailing a study on the connectivity of social isolation to physical pain and instantly thought of my students. All semester long, they read plays, novels, short stories, and poems that showcased a variety of types of humor. I also supplemented their genre introduction with discussions on humor from physiological, economic, and psychological prospectives. This Science abstract, while not itself humorous, fit right into my theme, and I shared it with students via email as they were working hard to complete their final essays and reflective letters.
A few weeks prior, in a memorable 'ah-ha' moment, my students had made various connections to the benefits of humor and laughter in the 'real world,' and they were keen to repeat what had become our course mantra: 'humor can do that'! While literature was the vehicle of my course, my students were encouraged to investigate a wide variety of mediums that addressed this theme. In class, they presented projects on how humor (and humorists) impacts, progresses, and even regresses social thought and action. Did they ever answer my call from my opening letter questioning what humor could do! They enjoyed "Laughter: Serious Business," a YouTube video from the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University in which Eric Tsytsylin discusses the significant benefits of laughter and, through an engaging presentation, challenges listeners to integrate humor into their personal and corporate lives.
Students also brought to my attention the viral video "Look Up," a spoken word short on the value of human connectivity in our technologically driven world.
While the video is not exceedingly humorous, students reflected on how it connected well to another article they read on CNN Health about loneliness (see Hayes' article on loneliness). These presentations helped to illustrate the multi-dimensional facets of humor in the worlds of business, medicine, and technology. They synthesized and applied the value of humor in many areas of their much smaller everyday lives as well, such as telling jokes to sick or lonely friends. When asked what humor could do, the nature and amount of response was overwhelming.
Our final conversation as a class revealed an astonishing amount of insight, all of which I could never fit into one blog post; furthermore, I learned that the theme of humor did more than act as comic relief in my course. While the students were still getting to know one another in the opening weeks of January, humor was a fantastic common ground on which to form friendships. When students were reading difficult works by difficult writers, humor in both the text and in our discussions aided in comprehension and cohesion. When writing essays, students responded in meaningful modes to the ways in which humorists and humorous texts get us to think about the impediments, complexities, and dimensions of a complicated American landscape. By challenging my students to cogitate about various aspects of American culture, they in turn challenged their peers, congressional representatives, and even their professor to think about the serious impacts of humor in all areas of modern life.
Many students left my course this semester with a firm grasp of the serious side of humor, as evident by their letters and participation in our final discussion. They built a foundational understanding of humor and worked hard to experiment with the theme and implement it in their everyday lives. I can only hope that they think about this course as they continue to be active members of the broader culture surrounding them, and remember that often times 'humor can do that'!

The Anatomy Of Network Preferences 1
Networks can be complicated and for anyone that isn't a computer geek may find the Network Preference Pane a bit complicated. Although there is an assistant this post is designed to give people who are less confident with playing with preferences a bit better of an idea of what everything means. It may also help you figure out solutions to when things go wrong. The preference pane shown below is the Leopard version. The Tiger and earlier versions differ slightly but they are essentially the same.
This first shot is the main screen. It will probably look differently on your computer, but essentially the things are the same. The number are referenced below.
Pretty self explanatory. The location is used to set up different settings for different places (or the same place). You can click the drop down to add edit or delete a place. Most of the time it will say "Automatic" although I have deleted that version and can't get it back.
2) Adapter Selector
The sidebar selector is, you guessed it, a selector for the different ways to connect. This list will display only the ways you can select to a network on your computer. For example if you don't have bluetooth, bluetooth will not appear.
3) Selector Settings
This is a selection I don't really use much, you can add and delete selcetors using the plus and minus buttons. This is in case you have different ways to connect to hardware interfaces. I have never used these options so I can't really comment.
The little wheel gives you a lot of extra options which are very useful. Duplicate Service means you can copy it, making changes and adding it to the list. Rename, means you can rename the service. Deactivate means you can make a service inactive. This means that if you have a service that connects to a network and you don't want it to, you can stop it from there.
Service order, is a great little tool to let you drag the services to connecting to networks into different orders in which they connect. For example I like to connect over ethernet than Wi-Fi so I have changed the order here. Most of the time your Mac will automatically use the fastest connection, but this is very useful it you want to reinforce a particular connection.
Finally you have Import Configurations and Export Configurations. For importing & exporting the settings. Although I don't see how you can export the options, since it is greyed out. Hidden in the screenshot is the Virtual Interface options for creating VLAN's. I haven't used these options so I can't comment.
4 & 5) Configuration
This is the business end of the network pane. Here you select the way you connect to the network in question. Over ethernet (as shown) you have more settings. DHCP, is a way for the router to automatically give out IP addresses, but your router needs to have DHCP. There is also the manual way where you input a certain IP address. DCHP is quicker but the manual method is more secure.
The extra stuff like subnet mask you should leave as default, usually 255.255.255.255 (or the end number 0). It is the way the router or any network device can use to broadcast to other computers. Its a complicated subject and not needed for the purpose of this article. You can also enter DNS addresses, these are usually given out by your IP.
Wireless options looks different and only has a drop down box. All of the configuration settings are done through the advance options.
6) Advance Options
The advance options button to access advance options, explained below.
7) Assist Me
A wizard which helps you through the steps of configuring your network. It is usually presented when you first set up your computer or have troubles connecting to any network.
The advance options pane is usually an extension of the main page. You usually need to access the advance options to fine tune the settings, or tune something very specific on or off.
8) Options Tabs
These are the options tabs for changing the specific parts of the network connections. All you really need to worry about is TCP/IP and DNS. The TCP/IP is the way to change the IP addresses etc. DNS is used to convert IP address into text address and vice-versa. For more information a general search on wikipedia should reveal the answer.
9) The Settings
This is the setting section. As you can see it does include slightly more options which you can change and edit.
Thats pretty much it as an overview of Network Preference Pane anatomy. I hope this helps for anyone who is new to networking. One final tip you can change the location of the network through the Apple in the menu bar then to location menu item. You can also quickly access the preference pane from the menu.
