Having a toddler and a full-time job, I don't really get to spend as much time as I'd like birding. But in these circumstance one must make time when one can, and for me that's often during my lunch break in the woods around my office park. Being Winter, I always see tons of nuthatches, titmice, juncos, blue jays, and chickadees fliting around. Chickadees (of the black-capped variety) are the best because very often you can get them to eat sunflower seeds out of your hand, and I assure you that the feeling of their nervous little claws on my palm is about as exciting as my life gets. And I'm not dissing my life either. I have a great life. But literally my favorite thing in the world to do is to get a chickadee, or a nuthatch (!), to eat out of my hand.
So obviously I started carrying seeds in my pocket to the office, just in case. I saw this was mildly insane behavior, but it just made sense because then I could pop outside when there was a lull in work and stalk chickadees in the wooded island that the upper parking lot surrounds.
Creeping around in such a manner is not normal. I'm not sure if I even need to say that. No one else does this kind of thing at my office, and as much as I eager to interact with the chickadees, I am always super aware of how nutty I might look, stalking through what is clearly meant to be a decorative wooded area and thrusting a handful of seeds into the air. The one thing that keeps me from totally worryinh about what people might think is that I am sort of cute (in an adowable way, not in a hot way. Maybe there is a person out there who thinks, "Look at that grown woman traipsing into the office park woods looking for birds to be her friends. She's sure attractive!") Bright pink coat, silly hat, cheerful attitude. More like: "Aw! Look at her! She's so cute! She sure loves her birds!" If I were dressed in a dirty black duster and a ski mask, maybe it would be a little more off-putting, but I aim for adorably eclectic, perhaps a little simple, and I don't worry so much.
Then yesterday I kicked it up a notch. After successfully calling a cardinal into my yard with a pre-recorded cardinal song, because of course I did, I hit bird island with a chickadee song posed to play on an app on my phone***, because of course I have that, and found myself standing with a handful of birdseed and a cellphone loudly playing "chicka-dee-dee-dee!" over and over again. I took a moment to step outside of myself and take in this picture from an objective standpoint and quickly came to the conclusion that I looked batshit crazy. And people were walking by as I did this, mind you - the Fedex guy, some dude from my office I don't know - they all saw me doing this. And the damn chickadees were not buying what I was selling at all. They stayed far away for the lunatic in the pink puffer jacker and the pre-recorded call, because of course they did.
Some people would call it quits at this point both from a "looking insane" and a "the chicadees don't really want to be your friend, bro" angle, but once one goes down the rabbit hole of crazy, there's really no reason to come out. So I will continue to bird in the parking lot, and even if the chickadees never come, at least I think I'm cute.
*** I just talked to the folks at Mass Audubon, specifically the Important Bird Program, and they said don't play recordings of birds to attract birds. It's not safe for the birds! Also, you might be swearing at them and you wouldn't know. But seriously, don't do it. Also, it's probably best to not hand feed chickadees. It was a good talk.

There's probably a much better way of doing this, but I don't know, because I've never done it before :-p
I need art for B is for Broken.
Usually when I need art for a project I either buy it from a stock photography website, shoot a message to one of my artist friends or I surf art websites until I find a style I like then contact the artist to ask about commissions. None of those strategies will work in this case. They won't work because I have no freaking idea what to put on the cover (or in the interior) of B is for Broken. I've had a few ideas, broken glass, broken dolls, broken dolls as seen through broken glass that sort of thing, but nothing has solidified in my mind as being precisely what I'm looking for.
If you're an artist, that's where you come in.
I'm looking for proposals for the artwork for B is for Broken. If you're interested in the job, I need to know four things:
- If I were to hire you what would you do for the cover?
- What about the interior art?
- How much would you charge for that?
- How long would it take you to produce?
Also? If you send me a proposal please include a link to your online portfolio or somewhere I can see samples of your work.
Things You Need To Know:
- The cover for B is for Broken will follow a similar design as A is for Apocalypse, meaning it will have an overlay with all the contributor's names and the letter will be added in much the same way as was done on A is for Apocalypse (though we can obviously make it darker rather than lighter if we need).
- The art will be edge to edge as in A is for Apocalypse (not put in a frame or anything like that), so there needs to be a suitable location for the title to be placed.
- Cover art is full-color
- Interior art is black and white, and will be placed inside letters to create title images for each story (examples below) so it needs to be readable even when cropped into odd shapes.
- I would like for the color scheme for the cover art to be different than what we used for A is for Apocalypse.
- My email address is firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll be accepting proposals until September 30th.
- Please use a subject line that clearly identifies why you are contacting me or your letter could get lost in my jungle-like inbox.
- I don't need exclusive access to your art, you'll be welcome to sell it elsewhere also.
- Just because we used a digitally altered photograph for A doesn't mean that's the only medium I'll consider for B. In fact, I'm pretty sure that C's cover art is going to be a scanned multi-media mosaic so don't feel limited.
If you have any questions or concerns please let me know and I'll address them as best I can.
ETA: I was asked about file size and resolution. Our final cover needs to be 6″ x 9″ at 300 DPI.

Statement from Dr Louise Irvine of the National Health Action Party on A&E's 'worst week' in England, with the lowest percentage of patients seen within four hours since monitoring began in 2010.
"The reason A&E is in crisis is not because too many people are attending A&E as there has only been a small rise in the number of people turning up at A&E. Waiting times are the worst ever, with the numbers of people waiting over 4 hours more than doubling from 4000 to 10000 compared to the same week last year. Yet the number of people attending A&E is up less than 5.5% from the same week last year, from 416,000 to 440,000. (*)
Don't blame patients for the A&E crisis. Blame the government.
Blaming increased A&E attendance is a convenient way for the Government to avoid responsibility for the more important factors within its control that are contributing to the problem: A&E closures creating more pressure on nearby hospitals, sick patients stuck in A&E as cuts in the number of hospital beds mean they can't be admitted onto wards, and cuts to social care budgets meaning more elderly people are ending up hospital and then suffering delayed discharge due to a lack of appropriate care in the community. This is known as 'exit block'. Drastic cuts to social services budgets (**) are leading to delays in arranging packages of care for patients to support them when they come out of hospital.
It has been estimated by the Health Foundation (***) that we would have needed an additional 25 A&Es to meet increased demand just due to population growth since 2003. Instead the number of major A&Es has been cut by 8% since 2003 and more A&Es are still scheduled for closure despite the crisis.
This crisis was predictable and should have been planned for. The changing demographics and rising admissions have been known about for years. The interaction between social services budgets and delayed discharge is likewise well understood. The solution is proper planning and investment in NHS and social services. Instead we have had £20 billion "efficiency savings" in the past 5 years and another £30 billion to come. A+Es have been closed. Hospital, community, GP, mental health, and social care budgets have been cut.
The £700 million 'winter crisis funding" the Government is throwing at the problem is too little, too late. It is intended to avert political embarrassment in the run up to the election. Sadly it's unlikely to have much impact on the conditions for patients or staff in our A&Es this winter."

Goals give us direction and purpose for the things we do and want to achieve.
While setting goals can be relatively quick and easy, achieving them can sometimes be a real struggle.
Unfortunately, so many people let their struggles get the better of them, which causes them to give up or abandon their goals.
Whenever we struggle to achieve our goals, it doesn't mean we should stop taking action to move closer towards our goals. It may mean we have to take a different approach.
I've had a health-related goal that has felt like a struggle for over five years. Whenever I make progress, something happens, like an injury or a physical discomfort, that causes me to slow down.
While sometimes it's frustrating, I know these hiccups are only temporary and will soon pass. All I can do is to continue to stay committed to my goal and my reason for wanting to achieve the goal.
10 Things to Remember When You Struggle to Achieve Your Goals
If you're struggling to achieve your goals or have even contemplated quitting them, here are some important reminders that can help you get back on track, refocus and recommit to achieving them. It's also important to know that quitting your goal is sometimes your best option.
- Struggle is part of the journey to success. Rather than try to avoid struggle, recognise it's necessary and inevitable as we try to achieve something new. In project planning, struggles are labelled as risks, and strategies are often identified to mitigate those risks. Similarly, when we set goals, it will be very helpful to be aware of things that can hinder our progress and come up with strategies to overcome them.
- My motivation behind my goal is being questioned. It's easy to set goals we have no emotional connection to. Think about New Year's resolutions — how many people do you know that have successfully stuck to their resolutions a couple of months after they set them? It's probably a small number. This is why our struggles challenge our motivation or reasons for wanting to achieve a particular goal.
- I am developing the quality of persistence. Anything worth achieving is worth fighting for. This means sometimes our goals will take longer than we expect. This will require us to be patient with ourselves and stay on course by continuing to take the actions necessary to achieve our goals.
- My creativity and problem-solving muscles are being developed. One of Albert Einstein's most famous quote is, "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." When we're struggling with our goals, it may mean we must look at our challenges from new perspectives to come up with new solutions.
- Success will be so much sweeter because of my struggles. Often, when we accomplish something easily, the reward isn't as fulfilling compared to things we've achieved after a struggle. There is a much greater intrinsic reward when we accomplish something after we have faced a struggle.
- I don't have to go through my struggles on my own. Chances are if we're struggling with a particular goal, someone else has already had the same struggles. If we're willing to reach out and ask for guidance or support, we'll be able to navigate through our struggles a lot quicker and with a lot less stress.
- I have overcome challenges before and I will do it again. We've all overcome many challenges in life so struggling with achieving certain goals should not be daunting or scary. As mentioned previously, it's all part of the process, and the experience of overcoming challenges previously should give us the confidence we can overcome these temporary challenges we are facing now.
- This is an opportunity for me to grow. The real reason for setting goals is to challenge ourselves to develop and grow as a person. When we're faced with challenges, they cause us to tap into aspects of ourselves that we didn't know we had. The best part about this is once we've tapped into those unused resources within us, we'll always have access to them.
- If I have set a goal, I am more than capable of achieving it. We wouldn't consider achieving a certain goal if we didn't have the ability to achieve it. This is why it pays to dream big dreams and set big goals.
It's important to know that when achieving a certain goal enters our consciousness, it means we already have the capability of achieving it. We may be required to learn some new things, develop skills we don't currently have, but they're just steps along the way. We already have the capability to achieve it.
- I am grateful for my struggles for they are building my character. Whenever we focus on our struggles and give more attention to them, we tend to attract more struggles. Instead, it's much more beneficial to acknowledge our challenges, but shift our focus to finding solutions to our challenges. Every struggle or challenge is building our capacity to deal with bigger challenges ahead in life.
Going through some personal struggle is not always a bad thing when we are trying to achieve our goals. If we're able to overcome our struggles, they will make us stronger, more resilient and better equipped to deal with other struggles we'll encounter in life. The key is to stay on course and make the necessary adjustments as required when we struggle to achieve our goals.
Action Step: Look back at any goals, in the past or you currently have, and think of how you dealt with any struggles or challenges you faced while trying to achieve your goals. What will you do differently next time you are struggling to achieve your goals?
Question: What is something else to remember if we are struggling to achieve our goals?

Back around 2010 I had this little agreement with a bar – a tiny wee bar that was part of a theatre. They asked me to coordinate some sort of "Live Listening Experience". That was the brief. It was a tiny bar and there was no room to DJ, they thought I could make them playlists – but wanted something (slightly) more than that. So I called them Live Listening Sessions. I'd create a theme, and a playlist and I'd welcome whoever was there with a short reading/speech-thing and that was that. Hit play. And let the people go about their night, chat about music – the aim was to encourage music discussion – and it kinda worked. It was a regular wee crew that turned out. And bonded over music and booze and banter. And I've just found the notes from that first session. So I've turned them into a playlist – if I find the others I'll add those up too. Some good tunes here. This first one was a bunch of favourite live-versions of songs off some of my favourite live-concert albums. I didn't want to just choose all the obvious staples so there's some random stuff in here as well as a few obvious classics.
I reckon it'll play through quite nicely. So maybe some weekend listening for you. Forty songs – just under four hours…lots of longer versions here, a few interesting covers…have at it.

Ray Bartoszek is going to visit New York Mets owner Fred Wilpon today about revisiting the possibility of becoming a minority owner in the unprofitable, debt-laden baseball team, according to my source.
In June, Bartoszek told the New York Times that he had earlier been notified by Allen & Co., the investment bank representing the Mets in their search for an investor, that he had come in second. The Mets subsequently announced that hedge fund manager David Einhorn was investing $200 million in the team and the deal would be consummated by the end of June.
After the previously announced June date for a deal passed, it was reported in July that the deal with Einhorn would happen in August. But if my source is correct, the implication is that Wilpon is looking to replace Einhorn with someone he can cut a more favorable deal. The deal with Einhorn would have valued the Mets at$783 million.
Bartoszek made his fortune as a commodities trader for Glencore International and has since served as a consultant to the publicly traded firm.

Westpac puts a lot of effort into building their brand, which includes talking up their sustainability credentials in their advertising. But in reality Westpac has lent billions to dirty fossil fuel projects, and is the only major Australian bank that hasn't distanced itself from the controversial Adani Carmichael coal mine. The Adani mine threatens public health, the Great Barrier Reef and even our chances of a stable climate.
So what would it look like if Westpac's advertising actually told the truth?
Our opportunity
Right now, Westpac is working on a climate change policy update. This is our chance to put some serious pressure on the bank to rule out support for any new fossil fuel projects, like the Adani mega mine, by hitting them where it hurts the most - their brand.
We think now is the perfect time to launch our own honest advertising blitz and rebrand Westpac. We'll start by covering the CBDs of some of our major cities - where Westpac does the most business - with our new ads.
It's time Westpac executives were under pressure, not our climate.
If we can get Westpac to rule out lending money to new fossil fuel projects, we can cut off billions of dollars to this dirty industry. We can cut off a source of funding for Adani, a project that would be a disaster financially and environmentally.
The Adani project has support from all levels of government in Australia. One of the only ways left to stop this dangerous project is to ensure it never gets funding.
The ads
Click on each ad for a closer look.
Help us expose Westpac
The more money we raise, the further our honest advertising blitz can go.
We need to raise at least $7000 to cover design, printing and distribution costs of the top two posters across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. Every extra dollar we raise above this amount means more advertising, and more people seeing the ads, including in other parts of Australia and even overseas.
And we need to do it quickly - before Westpac finalises their new climate change policy. The more you give, the more people will see the ads.
Westpac's brand is their most valuable asset. The more we can call out their hypocrisy, the more likely it is that they will be pressured to act to keep their promise to fight climate change.
Please chip in and help us raise the heat on Westpac, not on our climate.

This has generated traffic that we would have never been able to duplicate during our 19 years in business. The traffic this has generated in my two schools has been amazing. We have used many different advertising/marketing programs in the past and none of them have given us the results that this one has.
Experiences with bullies led me get involved with ATA at age 17. I was the band nerd, and I'd been picked on, I wanted to learn how to defend myself, and it changed my whole perspective. I have never looked back, and over the past 30 years, Taekwondo for us has developed into a family affair: my wife, Barbara, is also a Master and a 6th Degree Black Belt and my two children are also Black Belts. We have two schools in Allen and McKinney, Texas." – Sr. Master Mark & Master Barbara Sustaire
Senior Master Tracy Thomas
"I would like to give a BIG THANK YOU to Rev Marketing 2 U for building our Changing Lives Martial Arts marketing e-commerce site. This ISN'T just a website its a marketing site that earns us NEW students daily. They have created an amazing system that placed our marketing pieces together for us.
From local searches to a quality built marketing site we now dominate the internet, in our communities. In addition they are managing all of our digital coupons such as Groupon, Living Soical etc. These coupons never worked before on our own. I can truly see the benefit of Go2Karate.com connecting or as they call it, placing the puzzle pieces together 4 U. Over 3,000 Coupons sold and our marketing site is producing new students each day. We give every student a free uniform or Go2Karate® that every student loves. While they use it in town it send people to the Go2Karate® marketing site and they can find our marketing site or our offer on the Go2Karate® site.
I'm excited about what is being done for our Changing Lives Martial Arts school and am told we sold more coupons then any other school in the nation! THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU to Rev Marketing 2 U" – Senior Master Tracy Thomas
Mrs. Elizabeth Leitzke
"I am a 5th Degree in the ATA and have both co-owned and operated several ATA academies since 1988 with my husband. I thoroughly enjoyed instructing my students in Taekwondo and watch them on their journey of success in school, work, relationships and martial arts. The positive changes they wrought in their lives is very gratifying to me and motivated me to hone my own martial arts and instructional skills to benefit my self and my students.
I competed in tournaments and was on the Top Ten in my black belt division. Along the way, I met some amazing female martial artists with tremendous Taekwondo and leadership skills. They motivated and encouraged me to strive higher and work harder. I went through the ranks with predominantly Marines from the Marine Corps Air Station a few minutes from the academy. That experience helped me to develop into a stronger martial artist, both physically and mentally. This later proved to be invaluable in my instructional and martial arts skills. One of my strengths that I brought into Taekwondo was my ability to relate to others very well, thus motivating my students to become their best.
I have a degree in Marketing and Finance and worked for American Express during college and Xerox after graduating. I learned the importance of professionalism and how to conduct myself accordingly with customers and peers. During my time, I learned how to effectively deal with varying personalities. Rev Marketing is a highly professional and qualified company which truly cares about its clients. They strive to help others succeed and is the driving force behind their business. Their website design team is among the best in the industry, their top notch customer service is focused on customer satisfaction and the management team provides excellent consultation to their clients.
Many people confuse that having a website equates to having an effective internet presence and nothing could be further from the truth. Go2Karate.com bridges that gap, making their clients' websites highly effective marketing tools. This drives tremendous increased prospect traffic to their site and, as a result, to their businesses. Our society and culture are increasingly technology-driven and people will search for information on the internet . It is vital to businesses to have an effective website which has greater ranking and visibility above its competitors. RevMarketing has done and continues to do exactly that for its clients. RevMarketing2U will give you that edge over your competitors." – Mrs. Elizabeth Leitzke
Master Antonio Rodriguez
"Amazing…!!! We are VERY, VERY, happy with the service and results we have received from the Go2Karate® campaign and Rev Marketing 2 U! We trust RM2U 100% to have our schools best interest at heart. So far we've had 50 people redeem their Groupon Coupons, and 30 have enrolled in one of our regular programs! This means an extra $60,000 annually for our business! Rev Marketing 2 U manages our website, and we're VERY HAPPY, because I think now-a-days Online Marketing is one of the most important marketing tools, and this type of marketing is working even better than we ever imagined…!!" – Master Antonio Rodriguez
Mr. Al Herrera
"I always loved Martial Arts! Like many my age I grew up during the Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris era watching movies and aspiring to be a great martial artist. As I grew up though my life turned in a different direction away from Martial Arts and providing for my wife and children quickly became my priority. In 2004 I brought my youngest son into an ATA school to give him an opportunity to learn. He loved it! In 2005 after attending numerous classes with my son he received his Black Belt. I decided to start classes as an adult and pursue my dream of being a great Martial Artist. During my journey I quickly learned that I enjoyed teaching kids and other adults Songahm Taekwondo. I enjoyed seeing their smiles upon achieving their goals. I earned my Black Belt in 2008 and I began to pursue my certification as an Instructor. In the summer of 2009 I received my certification as an Instructor for the ATA and set my goals to open my own school. In 2013 I opened Glenview ATA Black Belt Academy and continue to enjoy my dream of teaching martial arts and training hard to be a great martial artists.
Using Rev Marketing 2U / Go2Karate Marketing Campaign is a new experience for me and thus far it has been a positive experience. Since the beginning of January 2013, I have had 7 students come in under the campaign. The potential sign ups right now is at 90%. I would definitely continue to use this Marketing campaign!" – Mr. Al Herrera
Mr. Jonathan Frank
"We are an ATA school with a 5500 square foot state of the art facility and fitness center. Opening our doors in 2007, we are home to 15 current district champions and 57 state championship titles.
Go2Karate.com Groupon had been our most successful online marketing venture yet. Within 48 hours we received 5 phone call inquiries about our programs. Currently we have 8 students in class after having purchased the 16 class Groupon. We are scheduled to convert reach of these students to fill time status this week." – Mr. Jonathan Frank
Mr. Jason Dendy
"Our experience with RM2U and Go2Karate.com has been great! Our enrollment has gone up, and our internet visibility has increased. Months that would ordinarily be slow for our area have shown a significant increase in enrollment. We are really happy that we decided to go with RM2U. It has helped our business grow, and is certainly worth the investment.
In the past, we have shied away from spending money on marketing because it has never brought in enough to justify the expense. However, after hearing some of the success stories of RM2U from trusted associates, we decided to give it a try. Once the site got up and running, and we started following through with the suggestions of RM2U's team of professionals, our enrollment jumped; we doubled the past month's enrollment and exceeded our previous year's enrollment for the same period. We knew then that this program could work. We are glad to make the investment every month and now we tell our associates about how this marketing program has worked for us.
I feel our marketing program is one of the best out because of RM2U's Team!" – Mr. Jason Dendy
Mrs. Sandy Petitto
"My name is Sandy Petitto. I own a Martial Arts studio and a Lazer Tag business. I've been in business since 2000 after moving to the Hampton Roads area. Due to the struggling economy, just like many business owners, we trimmed our expenses to increase our viability. However, once working with RM2U we were able to maximize customers visiting our businesses while still watching our budgets. Both of our businesses have increased their sales over the last year. SEO is the new wave of marketing because everyone has and does everything with their smart phones. With RM2U and producing the proper amounts of SEO and ad words, we've increased our business. I have many friends in the Martial Arts industry and those working with RM2U have increased and improved their business." – Mrs. Sandy Petitto
Mr. Steve Allison
"I took my first martial arts class in college and immediately loved it. I was not able to train regularly until I moved to Madison for graduate school in 1992. I have trained since then and started teaching in 1995 after entering the instructor training program. In addition to Taekwondo, I have studied a little bit of Aikido and various weapons systems. I truly believe there is no better activity for you mentally and physically than martial arts. It can truly be a life-long endeavor.
So far I am very pleased with our Go2Karate® Groupon campaign. We have 9 new students with 7 more set to start next week. Hopefully we will convert many of these new "Groupon" students into long-term students. A big Thank You to the RevMarketing2U.com team for their work!" – Mr. Steve Allison
Ms. Allyce McKenna
"Being new to the Changing Lives Martial Arts family, it is easy to see how RevMarketing2U.com has a positive impact on our business. It is exciting to see all of the new members that enroll with us, from Tiny Tigers to Krav Maga. Support with the marketing of Changing Lives Martial Arts helps us to reach those people whose lives we can positively impact! Not only are all of our programs at CLMA seeing a great boost of energy, but we are also seeing a positive financial impact. Because of that, we are able to offer our members a top quality class! Thanks so much, Rev Marketing 2 U, for helping us on our journey here at Changing Lives Martial Arts!" – Ms. Allyce McKenna
Senior Master Paul Leitzke
"I am currently the owner of Confidence Martial Arts in Wilmington NC. I have been involved in the American Taekwondo Association for over 33 years, and hold the rank of 7th Degree Black Belt, and title of Senior Master. Since 1985, I have opened over twenty martial arts schools either directly or by motivating his Black Belts. I have a great love for Martial arts, and continue to teach it on a regular basis.
I'm writing this review to give a BIG THANK YOU to RevMarketing2U.com for building our Confidence Martial Arts Marketing site. This isn't your ordinary website, it's geared to generate NEW Students, and communicate with them effectively. Their high-tech systems put all of our online marketing together. From local searches to a quality built marketing site we now dominate the internet, in our communities. This strong foundation means that our website produces a steady source of new students each month! In addition they are managing all of our digital coupons such as Groupon, Living Social etc, via their martial arts mega-site Go2Karate. We're having great luck with this type of marketing.
The team at Rev Marketing 2 U is awesome, and they really care about Confidence Martial Arts success. A HUGE THANK YOU to Rev Marketing 2 U." – Senior Master Paul Leitzke
Mr. Corey Gunsel
"Changing Lives Martial Arts of the Princess Anne are would like to thank RevMarketing2U.com for sending community members to our martial arts facility in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Our Karate for kids classes are so exciting and we have many new students enrolling into both our basic course and instructor programs. Wow! What a difference we have seen with the energy in the classes and the positive results we can see within the community from all of the students enrolling here at our Changing Lives Martial Arts at Princess Anne located in Virginia Beach. We have many new students with our adult martial arts program, karate for kids program and Krav Maga program and we are excited about all that we can do for our martial arts students on their path at CLMA." – Mr. Corey Gunsel
Senior Master David Kowkabany
"RM2U is easy to work with, and extremely professional. Their expertise in the field of online marketing is cutting edge, they stay abreast of the latest technology as well as the changes needed to stay up with the constant changes in search engine marketing and optimization. In a year, they took us from page 14 of the search engines, to page 1! Our website before working with RM2U brought in two or three leads per YEAR, and now we get weekly calls… this is in addition to our Groupon sales. Sr. Master Thomas and his staff and the best, very hard-working, and true to their promises. In fact, they have actually provided additional services to us that we didn't expect, as they were rolling them out to all of their accounts as positive advancements came through with upgrades in their software. Working with RM2U allows us to focus on teaching instead of worrying about handing out cards and flyers." – Senior Master David Kowkabany
Mr. Thomas Wright
"I am a 4th Degree Black Belt in Songahm Taekwondo. My wife and I opened our school almost 4 years ago with the dream of running a traditional, disciplined dojong. Since joining forces with RM2U our student growth has exploded! This helps me run an exciting curriculum as more and more students arrive to learn more about martial arts. RM2U has been the tool I have been looking for. We offer Krav Maga, through Krav Maga Desoto, Songahm Taekwondo, and Fitness Kickboxing classes. On Sundays we have an open mat welcoming Jiujitsu, MMA, Judo, Karate, and other disciplines so we can share training, philosophies and ideas.
Since joining with RM2U and Go2Karate.com our growth is exploding! The Website, designed by Rev Marketing, is driving in leads on a regular basis. Add that to the work of Go2Karate and almost every night we have new visitors coming in for classes. I am looking forward to continued growth through our standards and the wonderful help of RM2U and Go2Karate." – Mr. Thomas Wright
Mr. Toby Milroy
"There are VERY few people in the Martial Arts Industry who really know how to truly leverage the marketing power of the internet. Even fewer yet, who can actually execute the plan. Master Tracy Thomas and his team at "Go2Karate" are the real deal.
There is an awful lot of REALLY bad advice and shoddy services in our industry, especially when it comes to internet marketing. But Master Thomas and his team of developers are true professionals who are delivering REAL results for their clients. Whether you need a website that delivers new prospective students to your door, online marketing services (SEO, SEM, Pay Per Click Management etc…) or social couponing (Groupon, Living Social, Amazon Local etc…), Go2Karate are now our "go to guys".
The Go2Karate team have "cracked the code" on getting traffic to your site, and getting it converted into intros and paying students. I'm HIGHLY recommending the Go2Karate systems for all our NAPMA members, Coaching Clients and frankly, any school owner. " – Master Toby Milroy

Lexus RC 300h 2.5 2dr CVT ReviewThe image may be different to the version you have selected
Manufacturer price from:£40,200
What Car? Target Price£37,747
What Car? will save you at least £2,453, but our approved dealers could save you even more.
The RC is a distinctive coupé with very low running costs if you opt for the hybrid. But while it's well equipped and feels pretty plush inside, its small boot and rear seats and thrashy engine count against it. The RC F's mighty V8 might sort the engine issues, but it's expensive to run and not as fun to drive as a Mercedes C63 AMG.get the best price
Trim: RC
This entry-level trim still gets 18in alloy wheels, man-made leather seats, a 10.3in infotainment system with sat nav, dual-zone climate control, automatic emergency braking, front and rear parking sensors, a reversing camera and keyless entry. All the kit you'd ever need, really.
Engine: 300h 2.5
This hybrid system combines a 2.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor and battery pack to give adequate performance with low running costs. It's quiet and smooth at a cruise, but does get rather rowdy under hard acceleration. The sensible choice.

Over the last week, I have introduced you to a number of great American firms making apparel in this country: Montauk Tackle Company, American Giant and Game Gear. Yet the production of apparel by firms like this is a pittance when measured against the tidal wave of apparel that we import each year from abroad. In 2010, we imported about $75 billion worth of apparel from other countries. China exported $111 billion worth of textiles and apparel to the world last year and a bunch of that landed on our shores. But, as you may have heard, China is becoming a more expensive place to manufacture clothing these days. This stems from a couple of factors: rising wages, diminishing governmental support for clothing manufacturing, and increased transportation costs. What is a firm to do that wants to design its apparel in this country, manufacture it overseas and then reimport it into this country to sell? Start sourcing your shirts, pants and coats from manufacturers located in a country where the wages are even lower than China, that's what.
In a recent story, a fashion trade publication reported that Bangladesh may be the next clothing manufacturing hub. According to the CIA, China's estimated per capita annual income for 2010 was $7,600, while Bangladesh's was only $1,700. So it isn't surprising that clothing manufacturing production would migrate to Bangladesh. But why stop with Bangladesh? There are plenty of countries where you could probably have your polos and casual pants made cheaper than in Bangladesh since their annual per capita income is way lower than Bangladesh's. Here are a few countries that the CEOs of "American" apparel companies could check out as manufacturing locations if they consider Bangladesh just too expensive a place to make shirts, pants and suits.
Positives: Very motivated workers since Somalia's estimated annual per capita income is around $600 a year. Lots of port facilities. Good cell phone and Internet services.
Negatives: Complete lack of a central government. Your manufacturing site managers will have to learn to get along with the Islamist Al-Shabaab group. Lots of Pirates.
Democratic Republic of the Congo
Positives: Very very motivated workers since the Democratic Republic of Congo's estimated annual per capita income is around $300 a year. Big labor pool as the Democratic Republic of Congo has a population of over 71 million people. Ability to order your workers around in French if you want since lots of people there speak French.
Negatives: Well established history of corruption. Daily production meetings can take a long time since 242 languages are spoken in the country. Lots of diseases and snakes.
Positives: Very motivated workers since Afghanistan's estimated annual per capita income is around $900 a year. Everyone has heard of Afghanistan, especially us, the former Soviet Union and the English. Given long history of exporting opium, exporting clothing should be a snap.
Negatives: Managing Pashtuns can be tricky. Very hot climate but no nice beaches. Finding female workers will not be that easy within the next few years I would guess.
Positives: Motivated workers since Comoros' estimated annual per capita income is around $1000 a year. Since the whole country is an island, you might be able to trick your managers into believing that they are actually working in Hawaii. Good scuba diving for you and your family during your annual production visit.
Negatives: More than 20 coups in the last 35 years. Lots of volcanos. The whole country is an island.
One last point. If you are going to manufacture your clothing overseas and then import it back into this country for sale I have a couple of tips. First, always include the word "American" in the brand name. "American Style". "American Attitude". "American Badass". You get the picture. Second, put lots of American flags on your imported clothing. Finally, don't forget to also put lots of Bald Eagles on your imported clothing. If you decide to relocate your apparel manufacturing facility to any of the four countries described above, there is no way you should consider selling the shirt or pants in this country with anything less than at least two American flags and two Bald Eagles. Trust me on this one.
Of course, rather than going through all the trouble of making apparel in some third world country and then importing into this country, you could just make it here and sell it here. Like Jeff Fletcher, Greg Donnelly, Zac Painter and John McMillan do. The beauty of making your clothing in this country is you don't have to cover it in American flags or Bald Eagles to let people know it is clothing made by members of our extended American family. All you need are three words on the tag at the collar of the shirt or coat or the waist band of the pants: Made in America. See, that wasn't so hard, was it?

When the online multiplayer video game "Pixie Hollow" came out in 2008, I almost could believe in the power of pixie dust because of how much my elementary-age kids enjoyed playing the game.
My youngsters spent hours online, playing in the make-believe world as they created fairies, played games and wrote in their "leaf journals." The first "Tinker Bell" movie was released the same year, and my kids were swept up in the popularity of the imaginary realm of tinkers, fairies and cute woodland creatures.
Now, five years later, both of my kids have moved on. My third-grade daughter spends more time at the American Girl website or others dedicated to dolphins. For my fifth-grade son, "Minecraft" has replaced the world of fireflies and dewdrops.
Save for the uniqueness of Pixar's "Toy Story" or "Cars," or Disney's classic animation era before 1960, such can be the life cycle of a popular Disney animation franchise. As kids and franchises age, dress-up dolls and real sea mammals have more appeal than preternatural spirits, and the Creeper is way cooler than Tink.
Perhaps Disney understands this. Because now, as the popularity of mobile gaming grows and Disney Infinity offers infinite promise for the company's future gaming strategy, Disney is shutting down "Pixie Hollow" and other MMOG sites "Toontown Online" and "Pirates of the Caribbean Online."
All three games will close by Sept. 19. If there's any silver lining to the announcement about the games' site closures it is that anyone now enrolled and playing the games can do so with free, unlimited features until the sites go dark for good. Details about refunds will be emailed to members later, according to information posted on all three sites.
After the three sites close, the only Disney MMOG site that will remain up and running is the "Club Penguin" online site. Disney purchased "Club Penguin" in 2007 for more than $350 million, and the virtual world remains a highly popular one today. It routinely features Disney movie and character cross-promotions and features. More than 200 million "Club Penguin" characters have been created in the virtual online world.

Its official the KTA Philippines Boracay Extreme has become the final tour round for the 13/14 KTA season.
Unfortunately political unrest over in Bangkok for the past couple of months has had a crushing impact on Thailand's tourism trade, reducing travelers there by more than 50%. Sadly with the KTA's sponsors being a hotel business consortium for the Pranburi event, they have felt the impact directly and along with the local government are no longer able to provide the support for the KTA competition.
This decision came to the KTA yesterday (Feb 12th) and immediate action has been taken to bring this seasons Asia Tour to its final conclusion with the KTA Philippines next week.
The KTA Philippines is being presented by long time tour support and sponsors the Blue Orange Ville and hosted once again by ardent local champions of the KTA, Aqua Boracay by Yoo. The completion will therefore take place from the 19-23 Feb at the beautiful beach front location of Aqua Boracay, where we anticipate a high rider registration and some very high quality race and freestyle action in the week to follow.
There will be USD 15,000 worth of prizes up for grabs courtesy of tour sponsors Cabrinha along with the KTA Asian Tour Championship awards for the top riders of the season.
Boracay is packed at the moment we are told with riders from around the world waiting for the KTA to kick off. So a dynamic finale to the 13/14 season can be expected as the world's pro-riders take on Asia best, be sure then to be grabbing your front row seat at Bulabog beach each day.
Also, as has become the style for the KTA this season, the team is offering a full range of kiteboarding opportunities in addition to the competition itself. The KTA Kite Kids will be kicking off its busy event schedule from the 17th Feb in a week that sees power kiting, kitesurf beginners courses, race and freestyle coaching, plus the return for the second year of the KTA Kids TT Race to top it all off.
Plus we have an all-time first for the KTA with the Asian Movie Premier of WITH A KITE!
With a Kite is a full length documentary following the lives and lifestyle of some of the world's top pro-kiters via the infamous Triple S in America. The premier is being screen at the Kasbah Restos on White Beach with free popcorn on tap to add that extra movie theatre feel to the experience.
Plus don't forget its Boracay, so that has to mean just one or two parties unfolding as the event progresses.
So plenty to come from the KTA Philippines – see you there!!

Loan Limits Are Falling, But Does It Matter?
For the past three years, the federal government has guaranteed the vast majority of new home loans, working through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the Federal Housing Administration.
Starting Saturday, the government will take a small but meaningful step back. It will modestly reduce the maximum loan size that federally backed entities can guarantee in certain high-cost housing markets. They'll fall on a sliding scale depending on regional home prices and will top out at $625,500, down from the current $729,750.
Will this further cripple a fragile market? Or is this much ado about not much?

For reasons of confidentiality, we cannot identify the originators of these unsolicited testimonials but we have them on file. These compliments are received throughout the case, not simply at the end as a result of the effectiveness of our approach in achieving successful outcomes and empowering the client at a difficult time in their lives.

"Your understanding and insight has been a great help, at a point when I was feeling totally defeated by my ex-husband and the family court system. I am glad there are people like you who have the passion and intelligence to strive for and make positive change after experiencing something so destructive."
Linda - a mother that retained us to institute contact arrangements where the father's behaviour was not in the children's interests.
"We appreciate and admire all the effort and intelligence you put into this case."
Dafna - mother of client whose strategy to undermine psychiatric evidence was wholly successful, resulting in that psychiatrist being struck off by his regulatory body.
"You are the best family law solicitor I have come across. I hope that we can work together in the future."
"For the first time in over two years did I feel confident in the legal representative I was speaking to."
"Thank you for so far helping me in which has been the hardest thing I have ever gone though in my life.
Without you guys I would have not been able to cope so thank you so much. This has been a mad six months but thanks for all the hard work you have done, your approach to law and 24-hour availability is truly remarkable and has given me great reassurance. Thanks for being there and working hard in this case, the six months will never fade from my memory and thanks to get me through them. I will be forever grateful.... Words cannot explain my gratitude. I really am of the belief the final hearing went how it did because of how good you are at doing what you do!
I wanted to drop you an email just to say thank you for everything today, not for just being there as my lawyer but for being there as what on consider a friend, you really helped me get through today especially when I started to struggle before the court case, for that I will be forever grateful. I am in full belief of every/any advice you give. I believe the child centric statements and child centric approach really won the day.
I want to thank you for the work you have done for me so far and the work you continue do for me, it's fantastic! I think your letters and emails have been brilliant, and the way you have worded and organised them is spot on. Thank you, it is everything I would want to say. I want to thank you for helping me in what has been the hardest thing I've ever gone through in my life. Without you guys and my family, I would have not been able to cope so thank you so much. Keep up the good work guys. I have complete faith you will.
I did want to take the time to thank you for yesterday. Your approach to legal matters such as I am going through is very unique and really helped to reassure me yesterday. I found you were very easy to talk to, you are very much on my level but then at the same time knew your stuff. Very impressed. Thanks again for starting to help me through this very difficult time in my life. If only I had appointed you from the off!"
Anthony - father fighting for contact with his son in circumstances where mother inappropriately claimed abuse and terminated contact to begin with and where our ability to case build around core strategies resulted in a successful outcome.
"It has been a tough journey for me over the last year but you have been a huge support and given such sensible guidance. At the start when there was so much uncertainty, your advice and also approach helped me immensely but also reflected my own values of being child centric and so it got me through the awful allegations that [X] made.
Although the final court hearing was a bit of an anti-climax in some respects (and thank goodness it was), I managed to get the contact I wanted and most importantly a clean bill of health with respect to my parenting and an acknowledgement that [X ] behaviour is attributed to her background rather than me. It has also been a sad process and I think it will take some time to normalise relationships, even just as parents, but at least now I feel that I can move on with my life with my head held high. The case that you so diligently and expertly built has meant that I know that my children's best interests are being served and that's all that matters in the end. Thank you for doing such a thorough job, particularly on my witness statement which is a comprehensive piece of work.
All I can say to you is Thank You and I wish you all the best for the future."
Father who succeeded in establishing contact and slam dunk expert reports through our ability to communicate on a level playing field with mental health experts in circumstances where there was parental alienation by mother.
"JS has gained good insight into how he works and we thank you for that. We are so appreciative of the approach you take to your work."
Parents of that client.
"He wants to retract his opposition to my application. I cannot even begin to describe how I feel. He read the witness statement [you drafted] and this had a huge effect on his decision.... There are some parts [of the interaction and the other side] that I hadn't processed before which were eye-opening. I really appreciate how much you believe in me and this case. You've been so committed and kind to me. You have no idea how much I appreciate the work you have done and continue to do for me because I understand that you are emotionally embedded in it and help me in ways that other more conventional lawyers would not. Hence living the witness statement as you write it."
Applicant Mother in leave to remove proceedings where the other side conceded upon receiving evidence recording our strategy.
"Thank you Richard, I've just read through my third witness statement. I'm truly grateful for the thorough and professional job you've done.... You have done a great job thus far. I'm certain that we are going to win based on the case that you have put together for me."
Respondent Father in leave to remove proceedings where service of a witness statement read to the applicant changing her relocation plans to her detriment.
"Not sure if you'll recall but you took the time to give me advice just over 7 years ago with regards to leave to remove.
Well 7 years on my son & I are happier than ever, his mother still lives abroad & has since moved to Cyprus. I'm led to believe she's moving back to the UK next year, but my son has made it clear he'll still be with me even though she's asked him to live with her when she returns.
He's 17 now & is an amazing son, he's just started 6th form studying government & politics, history, English language & literature, he's hoping he'll go on to university to become a lecturer.
He's far exceeded my expectations & hopes for him & is the most wonderful son anyone could wish for.
None of this would have been possible without your support, I'm sorry it's taken 7 years to write this, but the time has flown over. So once again, thank you, my son & I will be forever in your debt."
Lee - leave to remove father who successfully opposed the mother's application to relocate.
"By the way I sent your details to an old friend from Richmond days as she has a Hungarian friend who is going through something similar [leave to remove proceedings]. I told her how brilliant you have been!"
H - A successful applicant for leave to remove where father demonstrated very prominent narcissistic traits.
"Thank you Richard, I really do appreciate that and I have no doubt of your value and understanding of what is necessary. You have been a lifeline to me-both legally and psychologically over the last year. I can sleep at night knowing you are on my case and can be frequently heard boasting about how good you are! this is a prime example of why I hired you Mr Gregorian! Thank you"
D - A leave to remove father who is opposing mother's application to relocate, where there are issues of mental health.
"I just wanted to thank you for all the support you have given me over the past three months. It was without doubt the most stressful time in my life and without you I probably wouldn't have seen the whole thing through and would not have coped that well. So thank you Richard, everything you have done for me. I am certainly going to miss your support going forward."
S-successful leave to remove mother where case took three months from beginning to end including a final hearing and expert witness and issues of alcoholism and abuse.
"Dear Richard, Thank you very much for this, I am very pleased and impressed with the outcome-it sets my standpoint out so well and in a way that I wouldn't be able to do on my own, it is also very cleverly written."
D-a leave to remove father commenting upon our unique capacity to case build.
"Just a brief note to say I'm very impressed with the documentation I have just seen from you. I thought it very relevant to reassure you that work of this type is very valued by me and I thank you on behalf of myself and my family for this recent work."
Father of a successful leave to remove applicant mother in relation to her evidence.
"We really did enjoy speaking with you as you gave us many things to think about plus we really do like the way you see leave to remove cases and how to approach them"
Leave to remove applicants - USA
"Funny how one can start a case fearing that it is hopeless and end up believing one is in with a good shout. I would refuse the application were I the judge."
A leading QC in a leave to remove case where the strategy was 100% successful. Due to the facts, initially, I gave the client only a 5% chance of successfully opposing the mother's application for leave to remove.
"Hi Richard - I feel compelled to write after seeing your article on linked in: the importance of non-legal skills in private law disputes. You have touched an issue close to my heart professionally and personally. Professionally I specialise and work every day with helping leaders and teams be aware of and manage defensive behaviour. Pretty much my life is dedicated to it. Personally I have been on the wrong end of divorce law approached from a position of 'blame and win at all costs'.
I am absolutely interested in doing whatever I can to shape awareness of the importance of psychology - particularly its role in understanding defensive behaviour - to law practice, especially family law.
I'd love to connect sometime to chat and understand your passion and ideas around this subject.
What a fantastic basis for a law firm you have in my view."
Rich - A self-explanatory and very reassuring supporter of our joint legal and psychological approach.
"Thanks once again for your help today. I cannot begin to adequately express my gratitude for your support. You are such an incredibly generous and supportive person, with such an amazing level of insight. I can't tell you how sorry we are that we only found you this late in the process. We are in a deep hole and actually need you more than ever. You have been a great support and encouragement. It is truly inspiring to come across someone who truly believes in what they are doing"
An applicant mother and father who came to me for a second opinion in leave to remove proceedings whose case, whilst strong, had been mishandled by another leading firm of lawyers who were unable to present the client's case competently as it involved mental health issues and because they lacked the ability to present the case around a core legal and psychological approach.
"I was impressed with your insight into the situation so I am really confident that you will be able to help me. I cannot thank you enough for the light at the end of the tunnel!
I knew that the psychological approach through you would work well for me but in actual fact I had no idea how life changing it would actually be. Talking to you has helped me immeasurably. It would have been completely different if I had stayed with [previous law firm]. I do feel completely empowered now. I know I was strong before I met [former partner] but I have a new sense of inner strength now and that will make me a better mother. This will probably sound like a cliché but perhaps this is meant to happen, I have learned a lot about myself, I am so positive and I think that my son can actually only benefit from what's happened. You have been a massive part of the journey I have been on and the only one that fully understands what it has been like, that is a big connection for me. I actually consider you a very good friend now and would love us to stay in touch. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart... We would have won hands down if we had to go through with the hearing! But a win is a win even if it was an easy one!! I couldn't have got here without!! And will be eternally grateful!!.... You will get your reward in heaven! You may be one of very few lawyers there too!"
A successful mother in leave to remove proceedings where after successful case building and resultant witness statement, the father who had conducted a very aggressive case did not stand up to give evidence at the final hearing.
"Thanks to you also for your very careful preparation, which ultimately gave him nowhere to go!"
Leading QC commenting upon my preparation in the above leave to remove case where a father conceded at the final hearing.
"Dear Richard: a few months ago, I was facing the horrifying prospect of having my children removed to Germany. You were not able to take up the case as I was publicly funded, but you called me back and we had an inspiring conversation. After a two-year struggle, judgement was delivered on 18th May: I won thank you."
Father opposing ex-wife's leave to remove application. This compliment reflects the effectiveness of the joint legal psychological approach and its implementation.
"Dear Richard-The advice I received from you and your personal effort to assist were first-class and bespoke. I no longer fear him. I am content with my case and position. It is he who should be paying someone like you just move matters forward if he is interested."
Mother who was successful in achieving her objectives so far as improved communication and without the need to revert to court.
"Hi Richard, Thank you so much for everything. I have to tell you, you've been such a great friend and lawyer to me. I'll never forget it. As you know I've gone through some very low and dark times. I can't believe the support and help you been. I couldn't work with people like the other side at all as I have no respect for them. They are no better than slip and fall lawyers advertising on a billboard in the US. You're the only family lawyer I met who wants to resolve things in a fair way and isn't looking to fight for no reason"
Father who is a commercial law solicitor who successfully opposed an international relocation and arrived at a consensual financial settlement and parenting arrangements with his children.
"Your witness statement was absolutely excellent! I don't know how you draft in such a way that I feel that I actually wrote the document, such as your mastery of the case and the accuracy that you reflect my concerns-with far greater detail and documentation than I could have ever mastered. I am feeling calm and confident as the case is strong and multipronged. I am very happy with the work conducted."
"Thank you so much for your excellent work over the past months. You are without doubt the best solicitor I have had the privilege of knowing."
"Hi Richard, A massive and gigantic thank you for your excellent work throughout the last months. You have done everything in your power to avoid what in my view should have been an entirely unnecessary court hearing in which I was fighting to essentially take on additional liability in my sole name and save my ex-wife, our children and myself from bankruptcy. However, given that we had to go to court, we have secured a resounding victory and for that I thank you. A big thank you from all of my family."
"Hi Richard-you are definitely the strategist and it is on this basis that I would not have been willing to go into court without you. Every other aspect of your work has been magical, so I look forward to our first day in court. And yes, a bit of support in court will definitely be useful. I always have one person that I know and trust in the court room with me. Thanks for all the brain work you have put in thus far, which I think will stand us in good stead in court."
Father who had instructed 5 law firms before contacting us. Each law firm had failed to understand the need for a joint legal-psychological approach rather than the stereotypical aggressive, accusatory, one-dimensional case based on mental health which backfired. Broadening that case in accordance with our core strategy for that case resulted in him obtaining shared residency. We also dealt with the matrimonial finances.
"Richard, I am stunned and grateful in equal measure. Certainly did not expect a reply with any kind of steer in. You are the exception-in your profession - that proves the rule."
Mother who wished to improve communication with the father of their children in circumstances where the family had fractured and the children were suffering distress.
"I just wanted to send a note to say thank you very much, for all the help, advice & amazing support that you have given & continue to provide to my dearest brother.
I honestly do not know where our family would be right now, had my brother not found you guys, as we as a family have been left absolutely devastated & we still remain in a certain 'state of shock' with how the events of the last several months have unfolded.
I don't think we expected something like this in a million years, it has shocked & shaken our family to the core & we remain as close to my brother each day as we can, as he lives through this sad chapter of his life.
I realise you may perhaps say that this is your job & is what you get paid for, however I just wanted to send you a note of sincere & heartfelt thanks from myself & my family for what you have done for my brother & for the fortress you have strengthened around him, during his hour of need.
Once again, a huge thank you from myself and the X family, for all the hard work, effort & such a high standard of professionalism you guys both have in your work with my brother. Your work must be really hard & demanding & you must no doubt deal with some pretty nasty people, but please never underestimate how much your work actually means to your client's lives & their families.
I would honestly hate to think what position we would be in today, had we not had your support through this very challenging & sad chapter of our lives. As I said to you when this began, I do not know where we would be today, had X not got hold of you from day one. As a family, we wanted you to know that whatever the outcome of next week, you have & continue to be an unbelievable force for good & what is just and right in X and Y lives. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for your professionalism, your perseverance, your patience and your unending support to my brother and Y. Thank you for the memories, giving us a clear voice, helping us continue to believe & not lose sight of the fact that, we too matter & have a part to play in our little Y's life. Your help is priceless, never underestimate how much your efforts have meant to this family. The more people you guys are able to help out in life, the better and is a reference can help towards achieving that, it would make me & my family happy to know that. Thank you again.
I know my brother is in good hands with you. God really only knows where we'd be today without your professional support, we will all keep strong & positive about the way ahead, as we've done since this sad episode began."
Z - Family member of respondent Father opposing the relocation in circumstances where service of his witness statement forced the mother to change her plans entirely and to her detriment.

3. Re: COMMIT is not workingMark Little May 28, 2007 12:31 PM (in response to Ratna Vasantha)
At this time we haven't tried JBossTS within Spring. However, it would seem that your connectionisn't known to the transaction manager and hence all work you're doing on it (through to MySQL) is happening immediately (i.e., autocommit is still true). If the TM knew about your connection then it would turn autocommit off and explicitly call commit (or rollback) when the transaction terminates.

Hello everybody! Gelidus Tallinu here ready to answer all your questions. No question is too strange, no question too personal! Here's our first question, comes from some mortal on Terra.
Q: I heard from somebody that you've had sex with wookees. How could that be since they're easily the size of some horses?! The thought is disturbing! Perhaps you can shed some light on this?
A: Yes, it's true. I've done it with wooks. I've also done it with dragons too...but lets not go there. How? Well not easily but I can do it. You see my skin and internal tissues (like muscles, tendons and the link) are extra durable and flexable thanks to my nanotech. This means that it makes more force to tear me. For example, I have peirced ears. Now on a normal human, if someone grabbed their earring while playing ball and then pulled, it would tear out of their ear hole and they would have to have it sewn up. On me, you would have to put about 200 lb of force to tear my skin...or use something sharp.
This is handle in battle as I don't get tearing injuries as often, like getting arms ripped off. This is also handy when you have to whore yourself out to aliens in order to get them to look the other way so you can do things on their planet. Soo...I can stretch..hmm well well I think you can figure where, enough for a medium wookee or ::sigh:: horse. I don't LIKE to, but I CAN. Course most wookee dicks I've seen where no bigger than my lower arm; any lesbian fister could handle that. I DID put a baby cress through there you know...well one of my older bodies did but that's beside the point. She wasn't a small kid either...NEXT QUESTION!
Next question comes from Rotzi of Steel City Terra:
Q: If your hair is nanotech monofilament, how come it's blue? Can you change it's color?
A: My hair is blue because that is the natural tint of nanotech filament in light. All of the Shikkari have blue hair. We can't dye it as the filament doesn't take dye well so luckily I like blue. I suppose I could change it's color with some sort of paint dip....but I don't think that'd work out too well. If I wasn't immune to most external magics I could have Elhaz change it for me with a Rainbow charm.
Next question comes from...jeez I can't even read this chicken scratch of a name! Anyhow...
Q: Is that silver nanogoop toxic?
A: Yessir it is, but only when i'm nervous, scared, or angry. My brainware tells my nanos to go into disasembly mode when I'm in battle or upset. Otherwise they mind their own business unless I program them to do something entertaining. Course usually I don't ooze nanogoop unless something bad is happening. So yeah, if I drool on Elhaz's desk when I'm really mad at him, he probably shouldn't touch it. Luckily he's immune to my nanos, they work for the damn bastard! Otherwise he'd be dead by now...nanotech: the worse STD ever. ::grumble::
Well that's all for this week folks! If you've got any questions you want me to answer, just leave a message below and I'll get right back to you. See ya
