Whether you've been in need of rehab for alcoholics for a few months, or you've been struggling with alcoholism for years, you know that it's time for you to think about doing something to help yourself recover. You may even know that you're in need of alcohol rehab, but maybe there's something about the thought of it that has you concerned.
Here at Northpoint Recovery, we want you to know that if you're concerned, it's OK. You may have a lot of unanswered questions about alcohol treatment, such as:
We want to help you get the answers to these and any other questions that you might have.
Take one of our addiction quizzes to find out if you or someone you care about needs help today.
People often falsely assume that it's expensive to go to alcohol rehab, which is why so many people try to quit drinking on their own. However, your health insurance will help to cover the costs of alcohol treatment for you, and you may even find out that you don't have to pay anything for it out of your own pocket. Contacting an alcohol rehab facility is the best way to find out what your health insurance will cover so that you can get started with alcohol treatment right away.
While there are other alternatives to inpatient alcohol rehab, studies show that people generally have more success in an inpatient setting than in an outpatient setting. This is probably for a number of reasons. Inpatient alcohol rehab provides you with professional support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It also removes you from stressful situations so that you can focus on your recovery. In addition, it gives you the chance to immerse yourself in learning about your addiction.
Most insurance companies will cover 100% of the cost. We also help with financing. Call Now. (888) 280-3348Verify Insurance

There are many great alcohol rehab facilities, but if you're looking for the best alcohol rehab centers, you should look for those that offer treatment for co-occurring disorders, and those who will provide you with alcohol detox prior to rehab. These two necessities will address the root cause of your addiction and your withdrawal symptoms, giving you a better chance of being successful.
Our admissions coordinators are here to help you get started with treatment the right way. They'll verify your health insurance, help set up travel arrangements, and make sure your transition into treatment is smooth and hassle-free.(888) 280-3348 Contact Us

While doing an interview with Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC Thursday, Joe Biden was asked whether or not Hillary Clinton was a good candidate. His response? He brings up Colin Kaepernick. Seriously.
Mitchell asked,"Would she have won if she were a better candidate?" Biden did his best to dodge the question a few times. He blamed the usual suspects a few times. You know, the Russians and Comey were the reasons for Clinton's loss.
When Mitchell kept up the pressure, he responded:
take our poll - story continues belowCompleting this poll grants you access to Think Americana updates free of charge. You may opt out at anytime. You also agree to this site's Privacy Policy and Terms of Use.
I think what happened was something we've never seen in American politics. The vast majority of people in and out of public life and the press thought that he had disqualified himself 15 times, you know, by the things he said about his groping women.
When he was defending Hillary, he also took a shot at Trump's stance against the NFL kneelers:
Think about it. When he started losing the fight in the floor of the House and the Senate on health care, what did he do? He started talking about taking a knee in a football game, Kaepernick, and these distracting initiatives, which you think would be disqualifying issues for this candidate, seem to work for him.
Watch the interview:
According to Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton could not "get to the subject matter" during her debates and arguments with Trump.

Trevor Bell 'Calshot' on Display In Tate St Ives Grand Extension Opening Exhibition
Trevor Bell's 'Calshot'(1970), which was acquired by Tate alongside a number of other works for their permanent collection will be on display at Tate St Ives as part of the grand opening of their significant new extension.
The underground extension, which is buried out of sight in a cliff, will house contemporary art shows, will reopen after an 18-month closure and a long, drawn-out £20m expansion project requiring machines to pound the Cornish cliffside to remove blue elvan, the hardest rock in the British Isles.
Now buried in the cliff is an incongruously bright and airy 500 sq metre gallery that curators hope will put the gallery firmly on the international art map. The main aim of the extension was to show both contemporary art and works from Tate's impressive collection of modernist art at the same time.

UNIVERSITY NEWS | Thousands of Loyola Marymount University graduates have passed through Regents Terrace since it was dedicated in 1958. Thousands of visitors have gathered there to watch Christmas tree lightings. Countless gatherings have been held there in the course of 60 years.
But now, it's time to rebuild and refurbish LMU's social axis.
The Board of Regents took on the task and raised $750,000 to complete the overhaul. The key addition to Regents Terrace will be decorative, named paving stones, allowing families to make an indelible mark on the campus. Alumni, parents, faculty and staff are welcome to purchase a paver and have a dedicated stone reflecting their own family name.
The project consists of removing the existing stairs and flatwork, then replacing them with new concrete, pavers, step lighting, and constructing a new stairway connecting the terrace to the west entrance of the Malone Student Center. Also, storm water retention and sewer upgrades within Sunken Garden will be included.
The work, by Gray Construction, began after commencement last month, and is expected to be completed in August, before the fall semester begins and in time for the 2018 Alumni BBQ.

And it happened. Torn unrestrained desire to acquire additional cash I decided to act. And so, listening to the known saying, "To win you have to play" I decided to try my hand at the lotto. What was my surprise when checking the coupon it turned out that I won 42 zł (well, actually 39, 50, because the intact would not subtract the purchase price, which cost me 2, 50). I quickly wanted to know what I was lucky. I searched a bit on the internet and found that the probability of my winning was 1:175. Well, I don't hide that the possibility of winning was quite small. Of course, you need to know from what perspective to look. For example, to hit "Six" where the probability of winning is 1 to 13983816, my winnings may seem simple.
Despite the temptation I decided not to bet my winnings.
After a month, during the winter holidays I also bought several bets, but I lost 12 zlotys. Well, apparently Fortuna has left me. I stopped playing. But I have always liked to look at the behavior of the human race. How do others strive to win? How skreślają the number?
People who play occasionally often put on numbers with whom they usually have something to do. namely their date of birth, whether the date the birth of their loved ones. Often zakreślają your favorite numbers or maybe happy numbers. And here, let me have a small digression. Never, I will never understand the phenomenon of lucky numbers. 7, 8, or maybe 21? What's the difference? For example, according to Feng Shui is considered a very happy number 8. This figure allegedly has herald abundance, wealth and growth. All in all it was nice because I was born eighth. An interesting number is also nine. In Chinese sounds like longevity. And here another pleasant surprise. My year of birth abounds in two nines. The bad, unlucky number is supposed to be a foursome, because in Chinese sounds like death.
People often also cite the so-called warm and cold numbers. Warm is those that in the last accumulation were very often wylosowywane, while the cold are the opposite of warm, that is, a long time has not been drawn. You are more desperate to also seek support in the stars, but I will not dwell on them.
A significant group of people play using alleged systems. And here, corrected one important thing.
There is no such thing as a running lottery system. This is the perfect documentary titled "The System". Outstanding, English psychological Magician, Derren Brown by a significant part of the program tries to keep us in the testimony that he found the system to win the horse races. Thomann is not on the game. He sends only to a large group of people e-mails with the name of the horse that has to win. It industry the names of all six horses. (thus, each of the fun participants gets one of the six horses, chosen of course randomly.) It can be said that it connects these people in 6 groups. Either must win. The one who wins again groups at 6. To each team again "assigns" a separate horse. It does so until all but one person is eliminated. She is convinced that Derren really found a way to win. Puts on a random horse all your savings. After being bought, Brown tells her the truth. Of course, at the end everything ends well. (Brown has probably bought bets on all 6 horses.)
Despite this, the Internet is not difficult to find pages with "Stuprocentowymi" systems. Of course, hardly anyone knows to let us know that these only work in theory, that is, assuming that we have infinite financial means to play. (That is, actually, you might as well circle the numbers accidentally.) Well, but what after some apparently like to hinder the life of wikłając in the very confusing principles of "systems".
Another thing is the systems served by the same sportowy. They do not rely on the matchmaking of different numbers or grouping them in a very strange way. The official systems of the Lotto games simply rely on the possibility of deleting more numbers. And so, instead of the six numbers, you can delete up to 12 which is not a bad idea, because the probability of hitting a six is then 1:15134. Looks great? Not exactly, because the coupon you have to pay more than 2000 zł. Therefore, such a play is good when a group of people consists of a coupon, and then in the case of winning shares a winning cash.
Thus, Lotto is primarily a kind of fun and should not be regarded as a permanent source of income. Fortuna comes, Fortuna goes away. So if someone is looking for an opportunity to enrich this, I recommend, for example, bank deposits. For profit, it is true that you have a little wait, and so it is very small, but at least sure.

After a rather intense workweek, with Jupiter opposing Uranus for its third and final time and the deeply revealing Pluto stationing to move direct, we're finally coming into some calmer, more harmonious energy as we move into this weekend! Venus will come into opposition with Neptune on Friday, and while this energy is ripe for deception and delusion in relationships, it's also a wonderful energy for developing deep connections with others that are more loving, compassionate, dreamy and romantic. Venus will also be coming into a harmonious trine with Pluto this weekend, driving our connection to go even deeper and amping up the passion in our relationships!
Friday (9/29): Venus in the pragmatic sign of Virgo will come into opposition with mystical Neptune in Pisces this weekend, causing us all to become more deeply empathic and connected in our close friends and romantic partnerships. While this energy is great for a dreamy, romantic night out or spiritual exploration with a partner, it can also cause us to become more prone to deception, fogginess and confusion in our relationships. Right now it is more difficult to see things for what they truly are, especially in our close, personal relationships. This energy may also play out through martyrdom and escapism in relationships. Venus in opposition to Neptune may also cause trouble when it comes to accurately assessing our finances, so making major purchases this weekend is not advised! Because we are not able to see things clearly, we are much more prone to being swindled into accepting offers and contracts that are too good to be true!
Mercury moves out of its home sign of Virgo and into the more balanced sign of Libra today, causing us to be less critical, detail oriented and judgmental in favor of greater consideration for the feelings and viewpoints of others. While this energy can be excellent for contracts and negotiations, Mercury in Libra can also have difficulty with decision-making. There is a tendency over these next couple of weeks to place too much emphasis on fairness and balance, often to the extent of favoring the opinions of others over our own self-interest. The trick here is to remain considerate of others while still maintaining awareness of our own needs— the right decision will serve to integrate both sides, not just one or the other.
Saturday (9/30): No major planetary aspects. The Moon will be transiting the enigmatic sign of Aquarius, making mostly harmonious aspects throughout the day today.
Sunday (10/1): Mars in practical, Earthy Virgo will come into a beautiful trine with the newly direct Pluto in Capricorn today— merging our willpower with our passions in a way that is grounded in reality. This aspect is wonderful for allowing us the energy to see things clearly in order to take action from a place of Truth. Our deepest motivations may be revealed today as we are able to see through the lies we tell ourselves in order to maintain the status quo. This deeply transformative aspect can ignite our passion, intensity and sexuality and initiate healing and regeneration on a deep and profound level. This aspect is great for making positive changes and initiating focused and intensive new action.
Have a beautiful week! Be sure to check back on Sunday for the weekday forecast! J

Benito Flores on piano in Cedar Island
Benito Flores plays the piano quite well and it is a joy listening to his performance in-world. The 3-d element strengthens the illusion of attending in a live concert in the open air. The music is live, synchronous and of excellent quality. For those who want to make an audio capture it is a pity the camera's are not silenced. Kate did a great job organizing this on Cedar Island at a convenient time.

Windlight zwart 23 x 30 cm
Stylish lanterns made of iron and available with us in black, mint green or gold color. The lanterns have a handle on the top and can therefore be unfolded or left partially folded for a playful effect. These lanterns are all made by hand, so here and there they deviate slightly from each other and stand out a bit differently than with another specimen, but that gives the playful effect. Nice to put on a table or windowsill or several copies together.

Helping you improve your project management capability.
Antony Smith – Director, Legal Project Management Ltd
Even as a young solicitor I seemed to gravitate more to organisational improvement rather than direct client work. I have always been fascinated about how the blend of individual skills, process execution and organisational support come together to realise a vision. In fact I must confess to being something of a frustrated film director at heart!
Lawyers are clearly being challenged to deliver legal services in new ways. Applying project management principles to legal service delivery allows lawyers to meet these challenges.
I have a background in law, project management and legal I.T. By putting these together, I help lawyers improve the delivery of their legal services. I help them realise their vision of excellence.
Creating more effective law firms with project management
The U.K's largest law firms now employ full-time legal project managers, working alongside their lawyer colleagues. I have for a long time believed that legal project management is applicable to all law firms, not only the very largest, and all lawyers. The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) agrees.
In its Statement of Competence for Solicitors, the SRA describes many tasks expected to be performed by all solicitors in terms of project management. For example, the Statement refers to solicitors 'meeting timescales, resource requirements and budgets' (for more please see Section D of the Competence Statement). This sounds like a high level definition of 'a project' to me.
Developing lawyers' project management skills is just one aspect of creating an effective project based legal service organisation. I believe all of the following are required:
1. Tools – ranging from document templates to software applications.
2. Methods and Processes – standard matter project plans supported by lower level processes and activities.
3. Skills – of both lawyers and support staff, working together as productive teams.
4. Organisational Project Maturity – to help ensure that the project delivery capability of the firm continues to grow.
The ultimate aim is not to become better at legal project management per se, but for lawyers to become more effective and clients to become happier with the service they receive. Happier clients are more likely to pay their bills quicker, instruct their law firm with more work and provide referrals.
I help lawyers and their colleagues achieve these aims by providing legal project management training, certification and support.
My professional journey
I am a solicitor by training, with postgraduate qualifications in law, computing and project management. I am a Legal Project Practitioner (LPP) and a founder member of the International Institute for Legal Project Management (IILPM) where I sit on its Global Advisory Council. I am also qualified in the Prince II project management methodology (practitioner level) and I am a full member of the Association for Project Management (APM) and the Project Management Institute (PMI).
I have a record of successful project delivery in all kinds of legal environments: solicitors firms (Pinsent Masons, Berrymans Lace Mawer), academia (School of Law, King's College London) and legal software development organisations. I enjoyed working as a Strategic Project Manager at Axxia / LexisNexis for more than 10 years.
Since 2012 I have been an independent consultant, providing project management services to law firms. I also write regularly about legal project management. PDFs of some published articles can be downloaded from here, and you can find my blog site's home page here and subscribe to my blog posts here.
What am I like to work with?
People tend to describe me as being an enthusiastic, honest, hardworking individual with a sense of humour. I come from Liverpool originally which may help explain the latter. I am an objective and considered thinker, with a preference for basing decisions on facts followed by thoughtful analysis. My default mode is to turn initiatives into plans with objectives, and this is perhaps why I have also been called a 'completion expert'. I have over 30 years experience of working in the legal services market and I understand what it takes for individuals and organisations to succeed in that market.
This understanding underpins my legal project management training. My training reflects the need for effective delivery of legal services, as practised in the real world by solicitors, barristers, in-house lawyers, government lawyers, cost lawyers, professional support lawyers, paralegals and business development staff. I really enjoy running legal project management training courses and feedback from students shows they enjoy it too. My courses are comprehensive, intensive and at times challenging. They are great learning experiences and we all enjoy a few laughs along the way.
"Excellent course. Provides a clear and in-depth introduction to legal project management."
"Many topics covered in the course are relevant and helpful to the practice areas I work alongside."

"Excellent interactive course with lots of practical examples and tips that can be implemented immediately".
"An excellent training program for anyone who wants to learn about legal project management".
"Thought provoking and interesting. I look forward to putting it into practice and seeing the inevitable changes within the industry".
"Enlightening and useful course, mixing formality with the light touch of interaction within the workshops. The course has encouraged me to want to learn more".
"I would definitely recommend the course for a detailed overview of legal project management and for upskilling".
"I really enjoyed Antony's course. The concepts were well explained and illustrated with interesting practical examples."
"Antony is a smart and open-minded coach who clearly enjoys interaction with his students and I would be very happy to work with him again."
"Excellent delivery of an innovative course. Antony showed flexibility and responsiveness to student needs. The workshops and exercises helped better understanding of the project management concepts presented".
"A course that provides a huge amount of insight and information but also makes you think very hard about how you do things and how you could do them better".
"Antony is knowledgeable and his passion for the topic was evident. The course itself has great content with lots of information, and I loved the book of templates".
"I thought the course was really good – I've covered some areas before, but it was great to have those areas refreshed and there was plenty that was new."
"Antony provided training for my team on Legal Project Management. I highly recommend Antony's training."
"Antony is a pleasure to work with and he has been a real asset to our business as we invest in further technology for the future benefit of our practice."
"Antony has a strong understanding of both the legal process and IT systems. This enables him to produce very compelling solutions helping law firms to get real advantage and ROI."
"If you want to learn about the opportunities and challenges associated with implementing legal project management and legal process improvement, I'd recommend a half day session with Antony as an excellent starting point."
"Antony and I share similar views in relation to the application of IT to the law and he has real world experience of what the day job entails which informs his views in relation to IT."
"Antony is particularly good at looking at market and product ideas which lie slightly outside of business as usual – he is a thorough researcher and passionate advocate of his ideas and proposals."
"Introducing workflow systems into numerous departments and offices throughout the firm presented challenges on a number of fronts. Antony did an excellent job of managing these projects."

The PEI Writers' Guild is pleased to offer a writers' workshop entitled Weaving the Narrative, led by New Brunswick fiction writer Chuck Bowie, at the Haviland Club (2 Haviland St, Charlottetown, PE ) on Saturday, January 13 from 9 AM to 3 PM.
This two-part, interactive workshop will focus on creating and managing narrative arcs. How many storylines will it take to tell your story and how do you manage them so the main arc is the star? Chuck will illustrate each step using examples from existing novels. The second part of the workshop, entitled Editing the Narrative, addresses the work you will need to do after you write 'The End.'
Chuck is the author of the best-selling suspense-thriller series Donovan: Thief for Hire. The fourth novel in the series, The Body on the Underwater Road, will be released in the spring of 2018. Chuck Bowie is the Atlantic representative for The Writers' Union of Canada and will speak briefly about the work of TWUC at the workshop.
Originally from Miramichi, Chuck Bowie graduated from UNB with a Bachelor of Science. Growing up an air force brat, he moved nineteen times. His writing draws upon these experiences to round out his characters and plot-lines. Additional information about Chuck and his writing can be found at http://chuckbowie.ca.

Hey everyone,
and I promise this is the last award. I now realize why people usually forget doing tags. How does one keep track of them. Well, let's keep that aside. So I was nominated again by the lovely Fizah @Books Tales By Me. So thank you to her. Go check out her blog. It's as amazing as her.
The Rules –
- Generate a post about the award.
- Thank the blogger who nominated you, and provide a link to their blog.
- Write a brief story about how your blog began.
- Provide two pieces of advice to newbie bloggers.
- Select 15 blogs to nominate.
- Comment on each nominee's blog and provide a link to the post that you created about the award.
Aaah! I don't remember actually. I think it was because of my sister. Yeah, I am pretty sure it was because of her. She started writing some blog posts and then I also wanted to do it. That is so like me. I always want to do what the other person is doing. So I started writing random reviews and posted them on some other blog I first had. But I guess I have improved over the days. And then one day I thought that Done I am making my own blog where I think and then post and now this is where I am. The way I am writing this, we could make a documentary on it.
I really shouldn't do this because a) I am really bad at giving advice and b) I consider myself a new blogger. But I have an advice
INteraction I know, so original. But this is a very important part of Blogosphere. Interacting with bloggers is great for you and your blog. You might make some new friends and your blog might earn some views.
That's all I can say, I don't have anything else.
That is it for today's post. Once again, thank you to Fizah for nominating me. Also I forgot to post on Wednesday. I knew what I wanted to talk about. I had the idea in my head but I couldn't explain it in words. So this means….that I need to start scheduling my post before hand. Oh! We can add this to the tips for new bloggers list. I hope you liked today's post. Comment down below….. anything, (I can't think of anything) and I'll see you next time.

Hire crew, find jobs and engage in piracy, all in a bid to stay in the black.

FORECAST Barring any sales cancelations or shipping delays during the final full week of the crop year, soft red winter wheat exports in 2017-18 should exceed the U.S. Department of Agriculture forecast at 90 million bus. As of May 24, exports and undelivered sales of soft red winter wheat aggregated 93.3 million bus. Exports and undelivered sales of all-wheat for 201718 were estimated at 872.4 million bus against a forecast for 910 million bus. Trusted since 1886. Today, Mennel is made up of 6 state-of-the-art flour mills; 13 country grain elevators; 3 trucking companies; 2 bakery mix facilities; a popcorn plant; and several other service-centered businesses.

Bunge opens wheat mill in Mexico ST. LOUIS - Bunge Ltd. has opened a new 400-tonne-perday wheat mill in Del Mayab, which is located about 12 miles from Puerto Progresso in southeast Mexico. According to Bunge, the mill primarily will serve the states of Yucatan, Campeche, Quintana Roo, Chiapas and Tabasco. "This expansion of our footprint ensures that Bunge can continue to meet the needs of our customers with a reliable supply chain and the ability to produce high quality ingredients at a competitive cost," said Daniel Maldonado, managing director, Mexico. The mill will sell flour in bulk and in bags to both large food companies and small bakeries. Bunge will employ around 50 at the mill. Papa John's debuts Donut Holes LOUISVILLE, KY. - Papa John's International, Inc. is expanding its dessert menu with the launch of Donut Holes. The new menu item features 10 cinnamon sugar-coated donut holes filled with caramel cream at a suggested retail price of $4.99. "At Papa John's, everything we do is in constant pursuit of better," said Steve Ritchie, president and chief executive officer. "That's why we're excited to be the first national pizza brand in the U.S. offering caramel cream filled Donut Holes with no artificial flavors or synthetic colors." Mill undamaged by Maryland flood ELLICOTT CITY, MD. - The Wilkins-Rogers, Inc. flour mill in Ellicott City largely escaped damage from the devastating floods that struck the town May 27, Thomas A. Rogers, chief executive officer, said late last week. "Fortunately, our building was spared from the flood," he said. While waters rose to about a foot high in front of the company's building for a few hours, no water penetrated the building. A river behind the mill never crested its banks. Mr. Rogers said the company's parking lot was covered by several feet of mud, and employees spent much of last week doing cleaning up work. "Our biggest problem has been that the local road has been shut off to truck traffic while they repair the road," he said. The mill and packing lines resumed production May 31 and hoped to be shipping again June 1 or 5. Land O'Lakes c.e.o. to retire ARDEN HILLS, MINN. - Chris Policinski, president and chief executive officer of Land O'Lakes, Inc. since 2005, has announced he will retire, effective June 30.

Land O'Lakes said it has engaged a search committee to identify a successor to Mr. Policinski. In the meantime, Peter Janzen has been named interim c.e.o. Mr. Janzen is senior vice-president, general counsel and chief administrative officer, and recently announced his intent to retire. A 35-year veteran of Land O'Lakes, Mr. Janzen will remain on board at the company until a permanent c.e.o. is hired, the company said.

End score 2017
Flashback time: I had recently started working at Pakistan's 'only MNC ad agency' (it's rather inevitable for those in the business of brands and selling to claim all manner of exaggerated singular achievements for themselves) when they landed a huge account. One of the first items on the agenda was the launch of a high-calcium, low-fat milk brand.
Cue hours (weeks) of brainstorming, fortified by ever-stronger cups of coffee and progressively louder arguments. Eventually, the brand was launched with innovative packaging and a sleek campaign featuring skinny, beautiful people grunting in a gym before parading about dressed in high fashion – in other words, a depiction that barely 0.00001% of the target audience could even decipher, let alone relate to. After a brief struggle, the brand tanked and was pulled from the market. Conclusions ranged from 'people are not interested in low-fat milk in this market' (perhaps pre-launch research would have helped determine this assertion) to 'product issues' (dubious, given the amount of testing done) to 'price!' (the evergreen scapegoat) to 'too aspirational' (and we have a winner!).
In Pakistani advertising, 'aspirational' usually equals outrageously luxurious lifestyles, enacted by impossibly beautiful people. The brand that must not be named did exactly this and failed spectacularly. Do fitness freaks even drink milk? How many women in Pakistan go to the gym when men are around? Nesvita showed us how to do it right years later, with a platform relevant to women and an approach that verged on inspirational (not the same!), while still having both feet firmly on the ground.
I have bored you with this ancient history for a reason: Nurpur low-fat milk. The campaign received a fair amount of attention, but how does it compare to Nesvita and the extinct brand mentioned earlier?
I would say it falls somewhere between the two. The tagline is memorable and relevant, a welcome occurrence in a country where too often, nonsensical taglines and copy are used because apparently they sound 'catchy' – yes, I'm looking at you, Pakistani confectionery brands and lends itself well to social media. The packaging fits with the range, although I still find black an odd choice (it stands out, sure, but it just doesn't go with dairy and if that means I'm old-fashioned, so be it!).
The TVC is likely the most unique aspect of the campaign and it scores well in some areas. It's nicely made and I like the black and white (B&W) treatment as that is generally deployed to evoke nostalgia, which is obviously not the case here. It's sleek and modern and it doesn't feel fake – there is a certain grittiness to it, reinforced by the setting and especially the female model, who seems extremely comfortable with the strenuous workout she is doing, while also managing to look well put together. Frankly, anything that shows women in a role outside the standard wife-mum-equal- martyr portrayal has my vote, even if hardcore gym workouts are not a prominent feature in the lives of the majority of the target audience. In this case, I think there is a genuine element of aspiration, beyond the generic perfect life stuff we see so much of – everyone wants to be fit these days, after all. I also like the lack of voice-over throughout, as it helps keep the focus on the action.
And yet... it doesn't make the sort of impact I thought it would have. It feels like a montage of different exercises rather than an advert. It doesn't have a proper peak, somehow staying at the same level from start to finish. The juxtaposition between the man and woman is unclear – they start off almost like rivals, then look as though they are working together, and by the time the woman chugs the milk (while sneering at the man), it seems like they are rivals again.
And that brings me to my biggest peeve: chugging milk. In the gym. During a vigorous workout. That just ruins the entire ad for me because it's jarring and fake: anyone who has ever worked out knows how detrimental it would be to drink anything as heavy as milk (even low-fat milk) while your heart is racing and you are sweating a bucket a minute. And it's unnecessary in an ad that is remarkably restrained in some aspects. Wouldn't it be enough to show the brand at the end, and trust your audiences to make the connection between low-fat milk and fitness? Why must there ALWAYS be a consumption shot?
End score. Stands out, largely relevant, refreshing representation of a woman, but could have been better.
Now for something wholly different! Bank campaigns are uniformly stodgy, and with good reason; when it's about money, seriousness is key! Some banks have attempted to 'capture' younger audiences with rather dismal results. Apparently it isn't enough to launch a credit card that is exactly the same as any other card, but in a brighter colour and expect it to succeed with young people. Shocking!
Which brings us neatly to 'HBL ID'. Not brilliantly innovative by any means, but relevant, which is far more important than being creative in my view. The offer fits the audience and the attempt to portray five distinct personalities (IDs) isn't bad, although clichés abound within (dreamer/genius/ insert-other-generic). Using social media is the right strategy, though a lot more can be done via active audience engagement and user-generated content. In fact, the activation done in August, while simple, was effective in the way that it synced with the target audience: selfies are, of course, user-generated content and also obviously, the new everything. In a category that churns out dull, uniform campaigns with monotonous regularity, 'HBL ID' is at least different and employs an approach that is meaningful to its demographic. We live in a world of pithy labels, positive and negative, so one must commend the brand for spotting and using this insight. Coupled with HBL's League Internship Programme, it appears the bank is focusing on younger audiences quite a bit, which is a sound strategy in a country with such a sizeable youth population.
End score. Sound strategy, relevant execution, not brilliant, but workmanlike.
To wrap up, I will touch upon Whistlez Biscuits: big budgets, expensive-looking TVCs, hip young people. Unfortunately, the brand name and positioning don't work for me. The name? Self-explanatory. The positioning? I'm not a fan of shaky links between insights and product/category. Having a biscuit, no matter how utterly delicious, does not give you courage (we have heard of liquid courage but this isn't the same, unless there are secret ingredients we don't know about!). It probably gives you a hint of happiness, maybe a sliver of contentment if you are in a great mood and/or easily pleased. But it won't magically help you conquer your fears. This is the sort of thing we see a lot in Indian commercials; someone happens upon a likely genuine insight and desperately tries to make it fit the brand in question through the most tenuous of links. The result is haphazard and one is usually left with a vague memory of the story, but absolutely no recollection of the brand – a massive fail in my opinion.
End score. Flash sans substance, unconnected and most unforgivably, slice-of-life!

Sometimes, when I'm bored mostly, I'll start going through old shoots that I've had. It's fun to 'relive' that day but also you'll find outtakes that you want to use after all. This is an example of this. The first 2 photos are on my website alexanderhabesland.com as part of my 'personal' series:
But going through the photos from that day I saw this photo:
It wasn't right for the original spread, but still, love the portrait.

I just discovered Ines Radjenović via her Instagram (@ines.heals) and I love, love love the look of her astrologically inspired flower blends – and of course,
I had to share…
Ines is an Esoteric Astrologer, author, Reiki practitioner, Flower Essences Therapy Practitioner and Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultant based in Montreal. Her healing practice focuses on developing of profound self-knowledge, to empower transformation on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. The change her work inspires helps the individual to move forward in alignment with her divine purpose, and authentic life path. Ines had great success selecting and creating personalised Flower Essence Blends for clients–specifically based on their astrological birth chart or natal chart–and launched the first line of Zodiac blends with gorgeous results!
The Zodiac Blends, 30 ml, $25.00 Canadian Dollars.
Ines says: "The energetic language of astrology marries so nicely with the emotional qualities of the Flower Essences in a way that made it only natural for me to begin fusing the two." The blends have been created to address imbalances likely to be present in each sign, treating specific struggles commonly experienced by those born under that sign.
For example Gemini brings focus and clarity, and provides stability and decisiveness to the inner landscape of thought. Capricorn balances the emotional tendency towards fearfulness, intolerance, rigidity, and the desire to control others. It works to silence an overly harsh internal critic.
Each blend is handmade fresh by order and infused with Reiki energy before being shipped to its destination.
Flower Essence Therapy is a form of vibrational healing that works under the notion that flowers are nature's expression of emotion. By being able to read the signature of a flower, (its colour, shape, size, growth pattern, etc.) we can deduce what emotion it is expressing, and therefore what emotion it will balance in the human energy field. Flower Essences heighten the awareness and notion that the physical body is intimately interwoven and connected with our emotional, mental and spiritual levels of being.
The blends are meant to be worked with as an introduction to Flower Essence Therapy, or for those who want to deepen their healing journeys with a gentle yet powerful ally. They bring lasting change to our emotional landscape, and restore our connection to self and inner calm. Ines says…
"What brings me the most satisfaction in my practice is watching my clients release emotional pain that has been holding them back from the experience of true joy and celebration of self in their lives.

"I wanted to extend this potential to as many people as possible through my line of Flower Essence Blends, and intend to continue expanding my product line to treat an even wider range of emotional needs."
Visit inesheals.com for more information and to buy the beautiful blends.

The Vagenda is a blog launched by Rhiannon and Holly in February 2012 after we got fed up of reading the same old Cosmopolitan sex tips and diet advice and wanted to do something to try and prevent another generation of young women from growing up anxious, scared and insecure because of the trash that they are reading. We'd now like to transform it into a fully-fledged website, and we need your help. The money that we raise will fund a complete redesign and see us through the first quarter, and will also allow us to show our gratitude to all the lovely people who help us out.
To explain:
A vagenda is a woman with an agenda, or specifically a vagina with an agenda. Today's media is full of them. Unfortunately, more often than not, these vagendas are not your friend - particularly in the context of women's fashion and lifestyle magazines, which, quite frankly, have come to constitute one of the most underhanded instances of woman-on-woman crime. Fact is: Vogue has a vagenda, Cosmo has a vagenda, and even American teen mag Seventeen has a vagenda - and the vibe in there is not friendly... The fact is that women's magazines nowadays constitute a minefield of body fascism. When you flick through one ("read" is probably too strong a word for the image-and-Tweetspeak-heavy content on offer), you're always dodging another insecurity explosion. Whether it's Rihanna's 25-minute underwear workout (yes, it's a real thing) or snake venom infused lip-gloss, the underlying message throughout is that you are your body, and your body isn't good enough
Since we launched, the Vagenda has had over 11 million hits and has been featured in a vast array of newspapers and magazines. Our readers, especially teenage girls and their mums, consistently tell us that we have made a real difference to their lives as well as giving them a laugh. However, we have never monetised the site or given ourselves a salary for it, and we refuse to do advertising (despite it potentially being lucrative) because it would totally compromise our message. I mean, they'd just take key words from our content and before you knew it the place would be festooned with 'Get your dream bikini body' and 'the new miracle fat-buster discovered by stay at home mom'. No.
There are only two of us working on The Vagenda at the mo and we'd like to kickstart a project to transform it from a blog into a fully functional website. We already have a huge pool of awesome contributors from around the world and we'd really, really love to be able to pay them or shower them with gifts, even if it's just a little, for their amazing work.
What we would use the two grand on:
- Paying a web designer to develop a proper website with its own domain. At the moment our layout is clunky and users express annoyance at its efficiency. We'd like a shit hot design and a proper website, but at the moment we can't afford to pay someone to do it.
- See us through the first quarter. We'd be able to pay people, buy office supplies, and fulfill a long-held dream of doing stickers
- Commissioning more content and getting help with doing that (at the moment we only post about one article a day)
- Paying an intern or two. We get requests to offer internships and work experience every week, but we'd never take someone on without paying them. We'd love to be able to throw someone at least a hundred quid while we're working on the relaunch to take the Twitter off our hands (we can make our own tea). Especially as THIS REPORT on online feminism talks about how bloggers have a tendency to burn out. Twitter can be way intense, and we'd really, really like NOT to burn out.
- Doing more school assemblies, university talks, and workshops. We often do this voluntarily and it can get expensive, but it's one of the most rewarding activities. So far we've given our talk on 'What is wrong with women's magazines' to hundreds of young men and women but we'd love to do more, because it's really good fun talking to fifteen year olds about this stuff.
What we definitely wouldn't spend the two grand on:
- Cigarettes, alcohol, or legal and non-legal hallucinogens
- Vajazzles
- Online dating membership
Obviously the dream would be to be able to rent an office and employ people long term, but even a small donation will allow us to delegate some of the work and continue doing what we do. And if you're too skint to contribute, don't worry- just by reading you are helping to sustain something that the two of us never in a million years even thought would be a big success.
If Spare Rib can raise £20,000 then we can raise £2000, right?
Thanks for reading, bros and ladybros xx
Risks and challenges
The only risk that we can envisage is that the new website ends up looking crap. If this happens, we'll pay someone else to design it again, but obviously we're going to carefully vet any web designers who approach us to ensure that doesn't happen.
The other risk is that, somehow, in the next six months, the human race achieve absolute gender equality and the Vagenda becomes superfluous. I think in this case we'd have to grudgingly accept that it's a good thing.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Chris Brogan interview
Excellent interview with Chris Brogan on how he'd run an airline and implement some social web karma; great insights, well worth the 9:58 investment of your time. The interviewer, Shashank Nigam, CEO, SimpliFlying, asks some really good questions. My comment after listening to the interview: That was seriously cool.
Semantic Web
This post re-confirms to me that the semantic web (i.e., Web 3.0) is still a ways out from being widely deployed, yet absolutely filled with so much promise and visionary thinking.
Dunkin' Donuts
Insightful post on how Dunkin' Donuts uses the social web to extend its brand engagement. Dunkin' Donuts' recently released Dunkin' Run app is a nice, simple deployment of a social app that has a built-in ROI component: buying doughnuts.
Interesting TechCrunch profile of Vyoom, which is a social networking site that gives you redeemable points for your participation. The more points you accumulate, the more stuff you can buy. Not sure whether this will work as a stand-alone application/concept, but could certainly see this applied in a rewards program under a major brand (e.g., Southwest's Rapid Rewards program).
Interesting ideas on why Gen Y may not "get" Twitter.

Offshore payroll services are crucial parts of both big companies and small enterprises. For payroll management, the system that you use is very important in how your team operates.
Since everything seems to be controlled by technology, payroll management also depends on technology to operate. As of today, we have different technologies and tools to manage the system and the payroll processes you need to perform.
Now, you can have payroll management apps handy in your own iPhone and iPad. In this article I've listed the useful pay roll processing apps that would really be useful for those involved in the outsourced payroll solutions industry.
Here are some of those apps and a summary of their best features:

Please help us with a short survey and you could WIN a $400 American Express gift card or one of ten $10 gift cards.
The Museum of American Architecture and Decorative Arts contains items relating to the social history and material culture of people settling in Texas between 1830 and 1930. It provides a warm, intimate and friendly setting for the household furnishings and decorative arts which help the visitor appreciate the changes that occurred as Houston grew from a frontier settlement to a town.
Several room settings depict a lively view of Texas history. Old cast iron pots and a 1790 rifle enhance the fireplace wall. An old wooden churn and a spinning wheel complete the decor. The 1850s vintage pioneer bedroom contains a maple bed overlaid by a hand loomed jacquard spread with the date of 1846 worked into a design of the Capitol in Washington, D.C. A Victorian bedroom of the elegant 80s is furnished with a massive bed from New Orleans and a ladies needlepoint chair with delicate cabriole legs.
Sure to enchant the museum's visitors, both young and old, are the Theo Redwood Blank doll collection and the Schissler Miniature Furniture collection. The doll collection, one of the finest in the country, shows the evolution of play dolls, from a rare Georgian period carved wooden doll, to 19th century paper mache dolls with molded hair, china and bisque dolls with leather bodies, wax over composition, fabric and many examples of 20th century dolls. The collection also contains doll-like figures from Egyptian, pre-Columbian, African and Chinese cultures.
One of the more fascinating items in the doll collection is a vignette which depicts the coronation of Josephine by Napoleon, a re-creation of the painting by David which hangs in the Louve. The tiny dolls, or lay figures as they are properly called, were used by artists and are constructed of wood with ball and socket joints so they may be positioned in lifelike attitudes.
The Schissler Miniature Furniture collection consists of 23 pieces of antique miniature furniture dating back to the 1800s. Since the Middle Ages, the noblemen of Europe had collected and displayed precious small objects, including furniture. These prized objects would became the basis for the earliest museums. Before the 17th century Dutch royalty demanded the finest miniatures for their personal treasures. Their influence spread to England and then to the colonies. In America, artisans produced exquisite examples, both as salesmen's samples and for personal pleasure.

Dillon Francis to Go Hip-Hop at Odd Future Carnival
From his bromance with G-Eazy to recruiting Rae Sremmurd for his "Get Low" remix, Dillon Francis has had a consistent admiration towards Hip-Hop. This weekend, Francis plans to take said admiration to a totally new level. Last night, via Instagram, the DJ announced that he would be appearing at Odd Future's fifth annual Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival alongside OF member Taco for a special Hip-Hop performance:
"Playing the most banger hip hop set with @yungtaco this Sunday at @campfloggnaw come turn up I'm gonna be flailing my skinny ass arms everywhere on stage it's gonna be the most hype shit ever"
While it is unclear whether or not Francis will in fact rap during the set, we can only hope for one thing: A new, Hip-Hop alter-ego a-la Deep House diva, DJ Hanzel!
Are you down with a Dillon Francis Hip-Hop set? Watch our 2014 interview with the DJ below:

"SEEPEX's business is internationally focused and personal contact with colleagues abroad helps promote good working relationships between international employees," says Melanie Frank, Human Resources employee. SEEPEX supports IHK's mobility program, which helps junior employees organize their stay abroad. "Companies benefit from the foreign language and intercultural skills of their employees. Stays abroad also make trainees fit for communicating with foreign business partners. That's why we like to participate in this program," she continues.
Currently, two trainees are at a partner company in Cardiff/Wales for four weeks each. Being able to offer stay abroad programs for trainees makes SEEPEX an even more attractive employer. This is a particularly important factor, especially when trying to attract young talent.
Melanie Frank also states: "The trainees return to the parent company with a more independent and flexible approach to work. After all, the young employees had to apply for the job in English and organize life in a place unknown to them."
