I saw a post on Facebook by Match.com that contained the tagline, 'stop waiting, and start dating'.
I couldn't agree more. Prior to reading these words, I watched an inspiring video by Shanel Cooper-Sykes about our personal procrastinations. Thinking we have to have this before we can have that.
Dating is no different. Many singles believe they are incomplete and can only focus on their love life once other aspects of their lives are put together.
We make excuses because we are just afraid and frustrated.
I'll start dating when I…
- Lose weight
- Move
- Get a promotion
- Make more money
- Have more friends
- Join Eharmony, OkCupid or Match.com
Whatever legitimate sounding excuses you're using to bow out from the dating game are not going to fly with me. I hear one bullshit excuse after another for why singles aren't dating or can't find a date.
You're not too picky, living in the wrong city, too shy, or too focused on your career. You're just NOT! Those are all excuses.
Dating is an experience that's meant to be enjoyed; it's supposed to be fun. And finding love, more importantly letting love find you, isn't something you put on hiatus because you want to lose three more pounds or find a new job.
Waiting to date is like waiting to be wealthy or happy. There isn't a better time to be successful or rich, or beautiful. Now is the time. You shouldn't have to wait on anything to decide not only that love is important to you but to make it a priority. So how do you start?
Repeat after me.
Love is not something you wait for; love is something you deserve. It is your right to be cared for, accepted, valued and respected. You are open and ready for love to be a part of your life.
You start by admitting to what you want, and not making excuses why you won't get it.
1 thought on "Stop Waiting And Start Dating Today"
Most appreciated, really one can't just wait giving excuses ………love is one thing we need to give respect in our life it's part of us and we need to cherish that …….I use to be one that give excuses when my sister told me You really need to make a move and forget about all those excuses
I took abold step and it worked for me …..

I would like to address the subject of selling residential gate operator systems. I stress the word "systems" because we do not sell gate operators, we sell gate operator access control systems.
There are two basic types of residential gate operator systems projects you may encounter and it is very important you determine which category your projects falls into before working up a price. To determine which category your project will fall under, simply ask your customer if visitors or guess will be using the gate. If the answer is "no", the project falls into category A; if it's "yes", it is category B.
Although there are category A projects all over the country, they are most common in California, Arizona, Texas and Florida.
The gates on these projects are usually next to or very close to the customer's house. The gate operators are usually controlled by a radio transmitter in the homeowner's car, just like those used for garage door openers.
It is also handy to install a simple digital keypad, key switch or even a hidden weatherproof push-button that can be reached from both sides of the gate by the owner who might need to walk the dog, get the mail, etc. There's nothing worse than locking your customer in or out of his own gate by overlooking this potential situation.
Every gate operator by every manufacturer will work on category A gates. To determine the gate operator system you need to consider the following: Gate size, gate weight, slide or swing, driveway grade (if any), cycles per hour or day, back space and side space problems, aesthetics, are safety devices needed, voltage available and location of power, who is going to use the gate.
Even if they are close, don't cheat yourself or your customer by installing a gate operator system that doesn't meet all the specifications of your project.
Remember, you have to warranty that operator for a year or more, and even if the manufacturer replaces the parts for free, it's your time and labor.
Gate operators for category B gates must be "system capable". System capable means that in addition to the homeowner's radio transmitter for entry, the gate operator must have a timer to prevent the gate from closing on a vehicle.
Although category B gates are usually further from the house than category A gates, often even our of sight, the one thing that sets them apart is the fact that provisions must be provided for guests and visitors to enter and exit.
A typical category B gate system will include; gate operators, radio receiver, intercom or telephone entry device, timer to close, loop detectors for safety, a free exit loop, an auxiliary opening device for the homeowner when the doesn't have his radio transmitter, and most importantly, provisions for the local fire department.
With a little pre-planning, your customer can have an access control system specifically adapted to his or her needs.

Phew! 7 handmade loaves baked in the bakeoff!
Posted on 30. Jul, 2010 by virtuousbread in Competitions, demonstrations, rants and other stuff
Too tired to say much except thank you to Fergus Collins from BBC Countryfile magazine who hung out with me today and baked seven loaves of bread in the first annual TMCG bake off!
Seven different loaves of bread made from seven different whole meal flours: 6 milled using either wind or water power from millers who are members of the Traditional Corn Millers' Guild and one, for comparison purposes, bought from a supermarket and milled by one of the UK's big millers.
It was really interesting to work with seven different flours at once. They looked, felt, smelled, mixed up, kneaded, felt, tasted, baked, looked, felt, smelled, and tasted unique: from "green grass" to "hay" to "nothing" to "bitter" to "mold" to "vegetables" to many other appropriate and silly words (we did use wine to cleanse our pallets between bread rather than the other way around).
It was amazing to both of us (and I am a baker) how different flour could look, feel, taste, and behave.
Next installment here.

Cool! Looking forward to hearing more about it.

Your wish is my command (on Monday).

Wow! that look like such fun. Wish i had been there. do we know the winner??!!
02. Aug, 2010
thanks honey! it was not about winners and losers, it was about the experience. the only real loser was the supermarket bread. bland bread with no depth of flavour at all. the others were all excellent in their own way. more on that later!

Who got to do all the tasting? Would also be interested to know which ones held up well under jam, cheese, etc. Your flat must have smelled amazing for days!
03. Aug, 2010
Ha! Fergus and I did all the tasting! You see some scored "two bites" and some scored "one bite" when they were naked. After we scored we ate the scraps with salami, cheese, and jam (and butter of course). The most bland was the supermarket flour so if you just wanted bread as a vehicle and did not want to taste the bread, that is the one to go for. All of the others contributed flavour and texture (some more, some less) so then it comes down to personal taste. We both ranked the Mt Pleasant Windmill as the number One (malty, nutty, earthy, complex flavour). I ranked the the Little Salkeld Windmill as Number two (light texture, lots of flakes as it is coarsely ground, and lovely texture and flavour). Some were bitter, some were sweet. It was way cool. You would have loved it!
23. Aug, 2010
Wow what an amazing day! I would love to have been there, after the loaf you sent to me I am sure these were as gorgeous if not better! I can smell your kitchen just from the pictures!! Yummy c x

2018 Ford Expedition: better in every way
June 30 2017,
The 2018 Ford Expedition has been completely redesigned this year, and regardless of where you look, you notice that it has been improved and is now better than ever. It has more safety technology, it is more efficient, it can tow more and it features even more interior space. Its underpinnings have also been completely revamped, and Ford's biggest and most versatile sport utility vehicle is now safer and more refined than ever.
The 2018 Ford Expedition features the same underbody as the new F-150
Ford made the bold shift to aluminum four years ago with its best-selling F-150, and now its full-size SUV gets the same treatment. The 2018 Ford Expedition indeed now features the same aluminum body as the F-150 which means that it will offer better handling, improved safety, and much more comfort for its passengers. Moreover, its wheelbase has increased by three inches which means more interior space for your 8 passengers.
The new Expedition will also boast class-exclusive technologies when it hits the market this fall including what Ford class its Pro Trailer Backup Assist System designed to make towing even easier.
Best-in-class towing capacity for the 2018 Ford Expedition
And chances are, 2018 Ford Expedition owners will be doing a lot of towing. Indeed, the new Expedition will be able to haul up to 9,300 pounds, giving it the best towing capacity in its class. This impressive brawn comes from a 3.5-liter Ecoboost engine that will be available in two power output levels. The first will offer 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque while the more powerful version will feature 400 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque.
These engines will be paired to a 10-speed automatic that will improve not only comfort, but fuel economy as well. Moreover, a new start/stop feature will also help in the fuel-efficiency department.
There will be three trim levels offered on the new 2018 Expedition, and each model will also be available in Expedition MAX trim for more interior space. Finally, a new FX4 Off-Road package will be available on the entry-level XLT model.
To learn more about the 2018 Ford Expedition, contact us today at Bruce Ford!

Cutler & CoFebruary 21, 2013
Cutler & Co, Andrew McConnell's first foothold on Gertrude Street, was the location of our family dinner celebrating my brother's birthday. McConnell has made quite the impression on the Melbourne dining scene, what with his triumvirate of Cumulus Inc, Cutler and Golden Fields recently strengthened by the addition of the Builders Arms Hotel, and the attached Moon Under Water, possibly my favourite restaurant that I visited last year. The point of listing these accolades? To make the point that when you dine at a McConnell restaurant, you know you're in good hands, so sit back, relax, and let the good times flow!
Ok, ok, enough of the cloud lights!
… last one, I promise.
Nothing like a smooth G&T to kick off the evening. Tanquery gin, a chopstick, and as much tonic as I please. My philosophy insofar as gin & tonics are concerned is 'less tonic, more gin!', and this phrase has served me very well so far.
Dad went for a delicate little dish of peas, broad beans, sunflower seeds and bergamot flowers, all sitting in a fragrant broth. Just beautiful, a little dish of spring. (I should add that we ate at Cutler in September, and I thought I'd lost my photos but then recently managed to find them – hoorah!) Cutler & Co do vegetarian food very, very well. Interesting, flavoursome combinations that any vegetarian should be happy with!
I was browsing through the shelves of Books for Cooks today and found one novel written by an English cook who I didn't recognise, but whose writing is filled with swear words and has an annoyingly urgent and angry tone that is funny to begin with but gets tiresome very quickly. I didn't buy the book in the end, but I did come across a rant about people who eat the in-house bread at fancy restaurants.
I know restaurant chefs usually aren't as good as bakers, I know you should really be saving stomach room for all the other delicious things you'll be eating later, and I know we shouldn't jump on the free bread like starving, yet fatter versions of Oliver Twist. But dammit I love bread. Love of bread > intellectual argument about not eating bread.
But I digress; Cutler does their bread as individual sourdough loaves, and they were great!
Mum went for a dish of local line-caught snapper with squid, nettle and oyster sauce. Again, quite a small size for a main dish, but a lovely, light dish all the same.
Dad and I had what I deemed to be the dish of the night; a sweet piece of john dory with shiitake, octopus, seaweed butter and sesame. It doesn't look very appetising in the photo, but it was fantastic, a perfect mingling of sweet fish, salty sesame and earthy mushrooms. Just brilliant.
I (correctly) ordered the chocolate dessert, having heard others rave about it. Served with a vanilla parfait and salted caramel, it's the rock star of the dessert menu; very rich and unashamedly awesome.
Mum went for a small refreshing plate of strawberry sorbet, buttermilk snow and sour cherry shortbread. Served in McConnell's recognisable style, it looked like everything had just been smashed together, belying the careful placement of ever component that I'm sure went on in the kitchen.
The dessert Alex had actually ordered was the earl grey ice-cream, chocolate, pedro ximenez prunes and honey jelly. And I'm sorry Mr Chocolate Ice-Cream Sandwich, but I reckon Earl Grey over here just stole your crown! I was lucky enough to try a mouthful and it was sublime. I couldn't get over that fantastic, fragrant ice-cream – if McConnell made that stuff available for retail sale, I'd buy it by the litre!
To finish, much like at Moon Under Water, salted caramel chocolates, such a treat.

Local Scoop
Heffe Makes Tacos That Don't Suck, No Really They're Delicious
So this past Saturday on a chilly October morning , Peter McAndrews of the famous Paesano's sandwich shops and his partner Anthony Lolio opened up the newest tastiest spot in town. Heffe Tacos which sits on the corner of Frankford & Marlboro in the heart of Fishtown, has been anticipated by foodies and we can say it did not disappoint.
Heffe which is literally a taco stand, is a small joint but packs a big punch. Incorporating his big flavors and unique meats hes's known for, Chef McAndrews has created a menu full of unique tacos and burritos that will awaken your palettes. Some of our personal favorites include the Mac Daddy tacos (beef cheek, plumb mostarda, red chimichurr, queso fresco), The PoleYO! (fried chicken thighs, cabbage ancho mayo, chinchilla cheese) & The Fat Man Burrito (crispy chicken, bacon queso, american rice). Overall there are over a dozen tacos and burritos to choose from and we're sure you'll want to try them all.
Although the seating is entirely outdoors, Pete and Anthony did tell us they plan on erecting a tent to cover the seating area which will also be equipped with heat lamps during the winter. To add to the "gotta' check it out factor," Heffe Tacos is also working the their neighbors Bottle Bar East to create an on-location beer option for Sundays. As for now Heffe is not opposed to customers creating their own BYOB experience.
We expect this spot to grow in popularity with McAndrew's cult-like following and the fact that this place is will be serving up tacos until 3 am on weekends (the drunk folks staggering out of Frankford Hall will be swarming this joint).
Philly may have an abundance of taco spots to check out but we guarantee you never had tacos and burritos like this before. So when we say this place doesn't suck, trust us it f%ckin' rocks!

The magnetic gate latch works as a pool safety latch when matched with self-closing hinges. When the gate closes, the magnetic striker pulls the latch pin securely into the striker. The gate cannot be forced open by a toddler with this system. The gate is opened by simply pulling up on the latch release knob on top. The latch is lockable with keys provided.
Most swimming pool codes require a latch on a gate protecting a swimming pool area be a minimum of 54" above the bottom of the gate in order to put it out of the reach of small children. Self-closing hinges are required on pool-safe applications. Standard gate posts on fences less than 54" high may need to be extended higher to allow the latch to be mounted higher. In many cases the latch can be mounted to extend above the posts to attain height required.
- Total latch height is 19.5"
- Child resistant
- Key lockable
- Two keys provided
- Horizontal and vertical installation adjustment
- Extruded aluminum body with glass-filled nylon components
- Left or right hand applications
- Automatic magnetic

Dominic Elsworth makes a fairytale return to riding
Jockey returns from 14 months on sidelines with big winner at Cheltenham
The toughness of jump jockeys is a racing cliché. So, too, their passion to pursue a high-risk job against medical logic. Seldom, though, have such words commanded the sense of wonder that greeted Dominic Elsworth's triumphant comeback at Cheltenham on Saturday.
Elsworth suffered such serious head injuries in a fall at Ffos Las, in August of last year, that his quality of life, let alone riding career, was in jeopardy. For months afterwards, his balance was precarious and he could neither read a book nor watch television .
Many times, he despaired of ever race-riding again, so to return with victory on Edgbriar, in the feature chase on jumping's biggest stage, was the stuff of fantasy. "It is a fairytale," Paul Webber, the winning trainer,…

MOSCOW, Oct 15 (Reuters) - Russia will inject a further 20 billion roubles ($305 million) into bailed-out lender Promsvyazbank's capital this year, in addition to the 5 billion roubles announced earlier, Deputy Finance Minister Alexei Moiseev said on Monday.
Russia's central bank took over Promsvyazbank in a bailout last year. The lender was then earmarked by the government to provide credit to the sanctioned entities so that other lenders could offload the risk. ($1 = 65.5655 roubles) (Reporting by Elena Fabrichnaya Writing by Maria Kiselyova Editing by Katya Golubkova)

In my flash piece The Sophistry of Now (yeah, I know…don't look at me, I have no idea what it's about either) the narrator describes his sudden return to reality from whatever dream sequence or daydream of a trip he had just been on as "…snapping into focus before him looking like a crazy beautiful melodramatic John Currin landscape (if he were to do landscapes)."
Now I'm no Currin aficionado, or even a fanboy for that matter – well, maybe I am a little…low level like. I just somehow became aware of his artistic existence sometime around the turn of the century, became compelled by it, checked it out online, dug it pretty heavily, and then pretty much let him go.
But his work never really let me go.
It is a beautiful, haunting meld of heaven and hell, angels and whores, peace and perversion.
KCET.org writes of Currin this way:
In almost every article written about John Currin, there's a sentiment that says something like this: John Currin is disputably the most successful painter of his generation. His mixture of art historical techniques with sexual or perverse subject matter helps him create masterful but modern works.
As far as I can tell, he doesn't do landscapes. However, in some of his portraits, the sky is used as a backdrop and from these pieces, we can get a glimpse of what his landscapes might look like if he were to focus wholly on them.
And they would probably look nothing like the pictures I am sharing with this write-up.
However, tonight's sky lit up itself and the landscape surrounding my hood in a surreal heavenly, hellishly, beautifully apocalyptic way, a way that, whenever I am fortunate enough to experience it every now and again, always reminds me of a John Currin landscape, if he were to do them…

Creating a financial plan is something that can't be done randomly. There are too many moving parts that need to be considered in a organized manner in order for a financial plan to be effective. There needs to be a financial planning framework in place that allows you to systematically work through all the components of a financial plan in a way that speaks to who you are, addresses your current situation and positions you for success both now and in the long term.
There is no one way of doing financial planning. Everyone is different in how they go about creating a financial plan. But, whether you do your own planning or work with a financial planner, there is a generally accepted financial planning process that contains the key elements of what financial planning is. This process is defined by the CFP Board which is the professional, non-profit, organization that grants the CFP® certification. The CFP® certification is generally accepted as the recognized standard of excellence for competent and ethical personal financial planning. All CFP® professionals must adhere to a Standards of Professional Conduct when it comes to financial planning. Since I am a CFP ® professional I am obligated follow these standards. Here's the definition and the the 6 steps of the financial planning process:
The Standards of Professional Conduct (Standards) define financial planning as "the process of determining whether and how an individual can meet life goals through the proper management of financial resources. Financial planning integrates the financial planning process with the financial planning subject areas."
There are six steps to the financial planning process:
- Establishing and defining the client-planner relationship
- Gathering client data including goals
- Analyzing and evaluating the client's current financial status
- Developing and presenting recommendations and/or alternatives
- Implementing the recommendations
- Monitoring the recommendations
As you can see, the process is fairly direct. It starts with defining the client-planner relationship and ends with monitoring the plan. In between is all the analysis and work that is part of building the plan. The steps seem cut and dried without much room for variation. There is actually a lot of variation when it comes to building a plan. The variation comes in how each person addresses each step of the process and to what detail they address each step.
Financial planning is part science and part art. While financial planning obviously involves a lot of numbers and other items that can be seen as either "yes" or "no" there's also a lot of "it depends". The "it depends" part comes from the fact that each and every one of us is unique. That uniqueness is expressed in how we live our lives, our behaviors, and our values. Because of that uniqueness I believe financial planning can't just be reduced to a series of numbers.
The 6-step process above only lists the steps (the science), not the many ways people integrate those steps into their unique approach to financial planning (the art). That's where the individual financial planning philosophy or framework comes into play. That framework influences how the financial plan is ultimately built and implemented.
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the need for "true financial planning". What is "true" financial planning? Well, there's no official definition of true financial planning, it's just my way of expressing what I believe financial planning should be. Basically, true financial planning places the emphasis on the individual, not the numbers. True financial planning has 4 key components. I call those components and the way that I combine them with the 6-step process the Clear Wealth Method. It builds on the 6 step financial planning process by adding my life focused, behavior-based planning philosophy.
The Clear Wealth Method is the financial planning framework I use with clients. Here are the the four components along with a description of what generally occurs in each component. Each situation is unique so the framework is designed to be flexible and adaptable.
You need to determine who you truly are when it comes to money and what you want your money to do for you in your life. This knowledge will be used to begin building a vision of what it is that you ultimately want to achieve over your life. This component typically includes:
To build a workable financial plan you need to take the time to honestly and completely assess where you are currently, with all the opportunities and challenges that come with living in the world today. This component includes:
Once you have built a vision of who you want to become and combined it with the reality of your current situation you are ready to start re-imagining your life, implementing your plan and beginning the move toward your ideal life. This component includes:
The final step is to continually reassess and evaluate your situation and make sure that you are doing everything possible to keep on the path that you have set for yourself. If your situation changes you need to be able to adjust your plan to meet your new reality. This component includes:
Whether you act as your own financial planner or you use a professional such as myself, make sure you "work the framework". Financial planning is a participation sport…you need to be involved in the process. Don't fall into the trap of believing that all you need to do is gather up all your financial information, drop it off at your financial advisor's office or enter into an online calculator and….BAM!!…you have a true financial plan. You will have what technically could be called a financial plan but it will most likely be much, much less than it could be.
The preferred alternative is to build a plan within a framework that takes your individual history, needs, goals, and dreams into account. If you do that, you will have a financial plan that is in tune with who you are now and will be much more effective at helping you live your life by design instead of by default.

Why Brands Should Think Like Technology Startups
Not long ago, Marc Andreesen—the co-creator of the first commercial web browser and now a prominent investor—proclaimed "software is eating the world." What he meant, in all his foresightful wisdom, was that there was no industry invulnerable to being disrupted by software companies and the digitization of everything under the sun.
His phrase caught on instantly inside the major tech corridors—Silicon Valley, New York City, Boston, others—for it was in those places that the digitization credo was first advanced. But, there's a second, and perhaps more powerful credo which came out of tech and has also been eating the world: an approach to product development where failing is desirable… in the early stages of development, in particular.
Unfortunately, not every industry was gobbled up at once by the world of lean product development. One of the biggest markets that's still on the banquet table? The world of brand advertising, which, for a variety of reasons, is largely still operating according to antiquated rules.
The Right Culture
The old rules wouldn't be so bad actually, if they still worked. The trouble (for brands still operating under the old rules, that is) is that a number of quicker-to-adopt brands are approaching traditionally high-risk activities (like developing creative content in 2017, for example—especially video) with a smarter, more effective approach. Based on what I have observed, in my work for some of the world's most thoughtful brand managers, there are three things these brands are doing different.
The first, is that they've adopted the culture of technology startups which defines failure not as an end state but as an interim state in the process of discovering what works and what doesn't.
Case in point: Kawasaki, which my colleague Tod Loofbourrow recently wrote about in a blog post for Medium. For a recent campaign, the Japanese motor company decided to run an experiment with a series of videos with seven different creative concepts. They distributed the videos in different contexts and took measurements of KPIs such as brand interest, brand affinity, and purchase intent via an inside-the-video-ad-unit sentiment survey. The company then prioritized the selection, distribution, and editing of the videos based on real-time customer feedback. In other words, the original videos were never seen as the end products, but rather as tools for creating the end products. It was a breakthrough in experimentation in an industry that's often loathe to truly experiment. Loofbourrow noted:
There was a time when the only kind of experimentation a brand marketer could hope for is A/B testing. With the right set of conversational tools, Kawasaki reset the bar for creative advertising with A/B/C/D/E/F/G testing, and won big as a result. The company saw a 23% overall lift in purchasing intent, the key metric for its campaign. And it did that primarily by listening first to its customers before investing bigger with distribution.
The Right Technology
In case you're wondering, one reason Kawasaki was able to adopt this approach is that the marketing team had already adopted the right attitude toward experimentation, which actually required that they listen to the customer. In contrast, I have been present at meetings with brands where members of the marketing team were too shy (scared, polite, or indifferent) to criticize a video that was under review. Forget about the "voice of the customer"; at some companies, the voice of the employee or trusted consultant is often unheard.
But I suspect that if more brands had the right technology, the right behavior would follow. As the Kawasaki case study shows, the team there used—among other tools—an inside-the-video sentiment survey. It's just one of many new tools that all brand marketers can avail themselves to capture the voice of the customer. But while none of these tools, in and of themselves, is remarkable, what is remarkable is that this category of technology—let's call it conversational (two-way) media—is finally available to the creative professional. In the mid 2000's, when marketers first began to embrace social media, marketers began to capture the voice of customer in text (first on blogs, wikis, and news comments; later on networking platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn.) In the realm of online video, comments have long existed on platforms like YouTube. But comments of this kind are after the fact, i.e., after the video (the product) is made. The capability of listening to the customer before and during the creation of the final set of products & strategy—which is perhaps the number-one rule in the technology startup world—is now available to the brand marketer.
Further, with the right tools (and data that it allows us to capture), no longer is genuine candid feedback or critique of a creative concept a personal attack on another's creative prowess. Instead, those around the table can point to objective data provided by thousands of others in real-time in the creative and strategy decision making process. Suddenly, shyness becomes irrelevant and so becomes unblocked an opportunity for progress.
The Right Metrics
This leads us to the ultimate way brands might emulate technology startups: You have to get real about the metrics that matter. I noted earlier how I've had the opportunity to sit in on internal marketing meetings where everyone was too "shy" to criticize what was obviously a very bad video creative. This happens all too often, actually. Maybe it's bad because it was the wrong approach. Maybe it's bad because it was the wrong approach for the audience in question. Or maybe it's just plain bad for any other number of reasons.
And what encourages marketers to continue with the pretense? Metrics that serve as false indicators of success. I'm thinking of one experience where the marketing meeting focused on the success of an obviously bad video because the video nevertheless got so many "hits," also known as "impressions" in the ad world. But was that the right metric? Because the goal of the video was actually to get viewers to fill out a form to learn more about the product, hits was not even remotely the right metric to focus on. It would have been better to look at registrations, purchasing intent, sentiment (via feedback surveys), and other indicators that customers actually liked what they saw and heard on the video. In other words, it would have been better to capture, yes, the voice of the customer—not just clicks on the video, which even a bot can do (which the recent Methbot scandal has so vividly illustrated).
To paraphrase Benjamin Disraeli, it was another instance of "lies, damned lies, and false metrics." But if more brands followed the practices of tech startups—which cannot hope to succeed if they fall prey to such self-deception—they'd develop better and more effective creative in an increasingly competitive marketplace.

As I wrote in a story for today's paper, that might be a good thing to allow the team a little time to get past the Apple Cup. The story also has a look at the bowl situation, though nothing that wasn't in the blog post below. Also, Times columnist Jerry Brewer says the Huskies need Steve Sarkisian to take his own next step before the team can. UW is now 27-25 under Sarkisian overall and 19-17 in Pac-12 games. In other news. … — Christian Caple has a blog post on a fan apparently hitting Austin Seferian-Jenkins after the game. — The Huskies did not get any votes in the AP poll or the coaches poll. — Here is Washington's updated NCAA team stats page. Among some of the more notable numbers, UW fell to 17th from ninth in pass defense, and finish the regular season ranked 30th in total defense at 353.5 and 98th in total offense at 347.58. UW also is 119th in penalties with 106, ahead of only UCLA. But as I've written about before, Pac-12 teams tend to get flagged more than those in other conferences — five of the eight most-penalized teams in the country are in the Pac-12. At some point I will try to do a more in-depth analysis of how those numbers compare to last year. — ESPN.com's Ted Miller says the Huskies still haven't arrived. — Jon Wilner has the Huskies ticketed for the Vegas Bowl. — CBSSports.com wraps up Friday's Pac-12 action and Saturday's. — Caple has a few more links around the conference. — Anthony Gimino also breaks down the Pac-12 bowls and has UW going to Vegas. — SBNation breaks down the contentions Jim Mora-T.J. Simers press conference after the UCLA-Stanford game. — Ken Goe with lots of good links around the conference. Comments


text: Always thrilled to get hired again from past clients. Earlier in the year, I did a studio photo shoot with Yorrelle to promote her music. This time she was shooting a video to help encourage people to work out and live a healthy life. I've been to Federal Hill a lot, but never knew this place existed. It's slammed between a head shop, gentlemen's club, and sits above a sex toy store. With her new video, Yorrelle would like to make this special and hip to showcase that Baltimore is a beautiful place to be. Can't wait to see the final product!

By Jeffrey Sisto, RDECOMJuly 17, 2017
NATICK, MA -- When U.S. Army Staff Sergeants Robert Keifer and Anthony Sandoval decided to reenlist, they wanted to swear in at a location with historical significance to their current duty station, service branch and country.
As noncommissioned officers stationed at the only active duty Army base in New England - the Natick Soldier System Center in Natick, Massachusetts -- the natural choice was Minute Man National Historical Park, where the battles of Lexington and Concord were fought to begin the American Revolutionary War.
And so, standing on the battle's famous North Bridge crossing the Concord River, where the "shot heard round the world" was fired, Keifer and Sandoval recited the oath of enlistment in front of a small crowd of fellow Soldiers, co-workers, family members and tourists, as another Soldier waved a 13-starred, colonial era, "Betsy Ross" flag behind them.
As NCOs for the U.S. Army's Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center, or NSRDEC's Headquarters Research and Development Detachment, Keifer and Sandoval provide daily supervision to new Soldiers serving in the Human Research Volunteer Program.
The assignment allows them to take in the rich history of the region.
"The reason we chose this location is the historical significance and because Sandoval and I both like Revolutionary War history," said Keifer. "To reenlist where 'the shot heard round the world' was fired has meaning, and obviously, it's a very scenic spot."
"This is where our country, where the fight for independence, really began," Keifer said.
The U.S. Army Natick Soldier Research, Development and Engineering Center is part of the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command, which has the mission to provide innovative research, development and engineering to produce capabilities for decisive overmatch to the Army against the complexities of the current and future operating environments in support of the Joint Warfighter and the Nation. RDECOM is a major subordinate command of the U.S. Army Materiel Command.

It was with great sadness that earlier this summer, we heard of the death of Barney Coombs after his long battle with illness.
Those of us who had the privilege of knowing Barney for over 40 years will greatly miss him.
He is regarded as a highly-honoured spiritual leader and the father-figure of Salt and Light, the movement of which we have been a part since this church began. His influence on the early days of our church here in the East Midlands was considerable and we owe him a huge debt for the foundations that he helped us to lay. He had such a large presence that continually steered us towards a godly life; he inspired us to love God with all our hearts.
Barney began his ministry as a Baptist pastor at Basingstoke Baptist Church, and led it into a radical time of renewal through the 1970s. It became a highly influential church and Barney's leadership was respected both nationally and internationally. He was admired for his courageous leadership in a time of radical spiritual change in the nation; he was highly regarded for his wisdom, insights and personal integrity. His genuine love of the Lord, of the Bible and of the Church, laid a foundation in the lives of many leaders; he became a significant ministry with great influence in many countries.
He moved to Vancouver in the late 1970s, but continued to give an apostolic oversight of Salt and Light Churches in the UK and many other parts of the world.
He has left a tremendous legacy in many of us who have followed him into church leadership and ministry; we are eternally grateful to God for the privilege of knowing him.
Our love and prayers go to his wife Janette and the family at this time.

Tia Booth reacts to Colton Underwood becoming the next Bachelor
- by Claire Allen
- in Culture&Arts
- — Sep 5, 2018
Underwood told Michael Strahan that he hopes to be engaged by the end of his season.
Other Bachelor franchise alums reacted to the news as well, including Underwood's ex, Tia Booth, who wished him a season full of "protein powder, puppies, and naps", before confirming that she would not appear on his season of The Bachelor. "'Third time's a charm.' That's what they say, right?"
The 26-year-old gained attention for opening up about his virginity on Kufrin's season, where he placed fourth.
The announcement was made on Good Morning America during an interview with Underwood, and Twitter immediately had thoughts about the casting decision. He went on Bachelor in Paradise, where he had a bumpy journey that was mainly consumed by drama with Tia and their on-off relationship.
Football player Colton Underwood and Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman attend the Sports Illustrated Sportsperson of the Year Ceremony 2016 at Barclays Center of Brooklyn on December 12, 2016 in New York City.
Watford down Spurs to maintain 100 per cent record
It remains to be seen how long Javi Gracia's third-placed side can remain among the upper echelon, but this win confirmed they are now there on merit.
When he arrived, he told Tia he wasn't fully over Becca since the pair didn't get any closure, though this was helped when she arrived in paradise to give advice to the budding couples and finally talk to Colton about sending him home in the final rounds of the show.
The show is set to premiere in January. And it was a good thing to happen because now I can take what I learned in that relationship and apply it to future relationships. Colton broke down in tears while breaking up with Tia.
First things first, ICYMI - Colton Underwood is the new Bachelor.
Ultimately, the lead doesn't matter as much as the contestants, so as long as there are some entertaining women competing for Colton's heart, this season will be fine. "He's a former football player who now runs a charity".

Rite of Spring
There are a number of events in nature that herald the arrival of spring, and all are wonderful to behold and lift my spirit. Perhaps the most thrilling to me, though, is the sound of Spring Peepers and Wood Frogs calling for a mate. Even on cold nights in early spring, I'll keep the bedroom window slightly open so I can fall asleep listening to the clamorous trilling and quacking calls of these amphibians in wetlands off in the distance. Having spent many hours surveying wetlands for breeding amphibians and other vernal pool species, I know what is going on out there in the dark, cold wetlands. I can lie in bed with eyes closed and feel connected to the rite of spring taking place as it has for millions of years.
Approaching the edge of such a woodland pool at night, the sometimes deafening volume of such singing amphibians literally rattles my brain. With hundreds of individuals dispersed throughout the black water and wet leaves, you would think they'd be easy to see with a flashlight, yet only a few individuals can be seen floating in the water or embraced in the act of mating. Some are seen hopping to and fro on logs or leaves. The vast majority of Wood Frogs and Peepers that are producing such a tremendous sound are hidden very well. In fact, the vibration of their combined intermittent calls make it almost impossible to target an individual. This helps to minimize predation by Raccoons, owls and other predators.
In the relative quiet daylight hours, you can look into the same pond and see egg masses of Wood Frogs and Yellow Spotted salamanders that were deposited during some previous night's primal union. Female Wood Frogs and Yellow-Spotted Salamanders often deposit their eggs on submerged vegetation, branches, or grasses near the surface and in a sunny location to aid incubation. As the egg masses absorb water, they plump up creating a gelatinous protective layer around each egg. This will help protect the embryo from drying out should the water level in the pond temporarily dip low enough to expose the eggs.
The Yellow-Spotted Salamander egg mass is cloudy and whitish, with a secondary gelatinous membrane containing the cluster of individual eggs. As the season progresses, the eggs are colonized by a green algae Oophila amblysomatis. The alga produces oxygen by photosynthesis near the embryo where it is required for development. In turn carbon dioxide, a by-product of the embryo's metabolism, is available to the alga. This symbiotic relationship is just one of the many intricacies of life in a vernal pool (see my Vernal Pools article for more about these critical wetlands). Some salamander eggs don't acquire the algae Oophilais and remain whitish. Those that do get the algae turn green. Apparently, more embryos in the mass survive when Oophila is present. This alga exists in nature exclusively in the eggs of a few species of amphibians. I find this fact to be very intriguing indeed! (Click on photos below to enlarge.)
Wood Frog egg masses differ in that they have no outer gelatinous envelope to contain the group of individual eggs. Consequently, when lifted gently out of the water in your hand, Wood Frog egg masses tend to spread out whereas the salamander masses retain their plump, firm appearance when lifted from the water. In addition, Wood Frog egg masses are clear, not white, with embryos visible within each egg.
Eggs hatch between mid-May through June. The tadpoles must complete their development before the water of the pond dries up or dissolved oxygen levels drop too low to survive. Amphibians that are dependent on the temporary nature of ephemeral pools and wetlands have evolved to take advantage of the lack of fish in such bodies of water. The presence of fish populations would ensure that no egg or adult went undigested. Consequently, frogs and salamanders, and other creatures of such vernal (springtime) pools, have adapted to periods of full water and the eventual drying out in late summer.
For more information on the importance of these spring ephemeral pools, read my short article about Vernal Pools.

Podcast Marketing 2019 Ultimate Guide
Grow your podcast audience with these podcast marketing, advertising, and promotional tips.
The information and ideas below were collected from online forums, Facebook groups, Reddit posts, discussions with podcasters, attending podcast conferences, reading books, and more. We hope you find it useful in helping you grow your podcast listening audience.
Content is King
- Create engaging content. Do something that interests you or something you're passionate about. This will keep your enthusiasm high and will prevent you from podfading.
- Ideally create a show on a niche topic. Podcasts with general topics like pop-culture or comedy have a lot of competition so you're better off niching down. The deeper knowledge you have on that topic or the greater access to guests you have in that space will help to determine your podcast success.
- Make sure your content provides value, is informative or is entertaining.
- The more episodes you can produce the better. Each episode you produce creates new possibilities of reaching a new audience. But don't water down your content just to increase your publishing frequency. Always make sure your content will be engaging.
- Consistency pays off. Make sure to publish new episodes on the same day each week or same time each month. Your audience is depending on you and will expect new episodes to drop on those days This builds trust with your listening audience.
- Give it time. Ideally publish 20+ episodes and try to commit to it for at least 6-months. Any less time and you probably won't see results.
- Create the right format for your show and automate. Once you figure out the show format and outline that works best for you, stick to this and batch process. Batch Process! Many podcast pros will record 5-10 episodes during one day.
- Find the right length for your show and stick to this. Don't publish one episode that's 15 minutes in length and another that's over an hour. Your listeners have set aside the right amount of time and don't want any surprises.
- Create a catchy intro and outro. But don't make these too long, 10-seconds is plenty long.
- If your show allots for it, create a mailbag segment. Listeners love hearing listeners' questions and of course love the possibility of their question being answered. This segment can increase engagement and gives you a chance to interact with your audience.
- Having popular guests on the show is a great way to increase exposure. Be sure to have the guest promote the episode to their social media following. Even better, create a shareable link and send it to them so they can instantly share it.
- If your podcast is an "interview" type show, do research on your guest and ask really good questions. Nobody wants to hear the same questions that were asked on the previous podcasts they were on. Dig into their background and ask relatable questions. Also don't be afraid to keep digging, like you ask one question and follow-up with what else? Sometimes the juicy stuff won't come out until the 3 pause or break from the same question. Doing research on your guest will please them as they will be excited to answer new questions they've never received before. This is what creates great content.
- And of course your audio quality should be good. Check your sound levels and use a professional microphone that will give you optimal results. You can find pro grade microphones on the market these days for less than $100.
Quick Wins That Really Work
- Spruce up your album art. Think your album art is great? Ask a few of your friends for feedback. There are a ton of resources to help you find a graphic designer to help you design your album art. Check Fiverr, Design Pickle, 99 Designs, Podcast Forums, and other resources.
- Tell your audience to rate and review your show on iTunes. Provide a gift or select a winner each month from an iTunes review. Read a few of your iTunes reviews on air. People will be encouraged to leave their own review to hear it read live on your show. The whole point of getting more reviews on iTunes is the fact that Apple rewards the shows with better rankings. The more positive reviews you receive, the greater likelihood Apple will feature your podcast. This will also increase your keyword search rankings within iTunes.
- Ask your audience to share your show with others. Referrals are still one of the most popular ways people discover new podcasts.
Marketing Tactics
- Mention keywords or guest names first in episode titles. These perform better in Apple's Podcast keyword search results. For instance Tim Cook with Apple - Episode 50 is a lot better than Episode 50 - Tim Cook with Apple.
- Try tweaking your keywords in your podcast title. Make sure to use specific keywords or phrases you want to capture in iTunes. But note these keywords or phrases shouldn't be too broad or too specific. Ideally somewhere right in the middle. You could use a keyword planner tool like Google's that will tell you how many monthly impressions a specific keyword or phrase has.
- Write great episode titles and headlines that will attract new listeners. For instance: Top Hacks by Podcast Pros to Grow Your Listening Audience will outperform Great Ways to Grow Your Listener Base.
- Mention your podcast name and website link in the signature area of your emails and posts.
- Publish your episodes to all major podcast platforms including iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, and Stitcher.
- Repurpose your audio on your YouTube Channel. The goal is to get your content everywhere.
- Get some business cards printed with your podcast information on them. Leave these in public bathrooms, doctor's waiting rooms, mall cafeteria tables, windshields of cars in parking lots, public bathrooms, etc. Get the word out!
- Implement an Apple Smart Banner on your podcast website. It's surprisingly simple just add the following tag in your site's <head>: <meta name="apple-itunes-app" content="app-id=XXXXXXXXXX"> Where XXXXXXXXXX is your show's unique numerical ID.
- Use a tool called SmarterQueue to help schedule posts so you can spend less time trying to come up with content on the spot. This tool also saves you time when it comes to promoting via social media.
- Make sure your podcast shows up in Google search results. Google recently updated search results for Android users that allows users to listen and subscribe to podcasts right within search results. This is a great way for you to get discovered from Google search results. Learn More
Paid Advertising Works
- Advertise on Overcast. Our friend David Kadavy went into great detail on how this works in his blog post.
- Promote your podcast on Facebook. Choose an audience that matches your target listener base and run a test campaign.
- Advertise on Google Adwords. Find cheap keywords or phrases that relate to your show and perform a campaign on these.
- Run ads and target groups and people on LinkedIn that may be interested in your content.
- Grow your audience by having similar podcasts recommend your show to their audience. Check out our new growth promo plans.
- Purchase banner ads on Listen Notes. This can be an effective way to get your podcast out to new listeners as this platform focuses on podcast content

Ask Others
- Reach out to Facebook groups and hit up the moderators. Ask them if they would be interested in being a guest on your show. More than likely they will take you up on the offer. After the episode airs, see if they would be so kind to share it with their Facebook group. Works like a charm!
- Invite guests in your niche that are not super popular or celebrity status. They will do a better job promoting the episode on their social channels than a popular celebrity. This will lead to more exposure for you. Make it easy for them by tweeting it out and mentioning them within the tweet.
- Find people that are experts in your field. This content will be instantly engaging.
- Give your audience 1-2 post-roll calls-to-action. The key here is to make the call-to-action super easy to remember. This can be done by sending them to a memorable URL or having them text a short code to a number that will instantly send them information.
- Ask your audience what topics, guests, or show ideas would interest them.
- Visit online places where your audience goes. Find web forums, online hangouts, Facebook groups, subreddits, and get involved here. Join these communities and build trust.
- Find podcasts similar to yours and ask the host if they would be open to cross promoting each others' shows. Find similar podcasts to promote your podcast. You can also try using AdvertiseCast to facilitate this.
- Ask to be featured on Pocket Casts. Pocket Casts has a featured section that will get your podcast in front of thousands of new listeners.
Utilize Social Media Marketing
- Engage with your audience or community on all social channels. This includes your Facebook page, your Facebook timeline, your Facebook story, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and more.
- Create a Facebook group that allows you to interact with your audience.
- Create a Twitter account that gives you an outlet to share things you're doing and also interesting things going on in your space. Share the audio of the episode on a Twitter card.
- Follow similar shows or people/businesses in your space on Twitter. Retweet their content. Make sure your Twitter profile has your podcast info and link.
- Post a screenshot of each episode to your Instagram feed. Then link to your podcast from your profile.
- Create engaging video snippets of your episodes and post these on your social media channels including Instagram and LinkedIn.
- Create an audiogram (animated waveform visually representing your audio clip) and post this to your social channels.
- Share small audio clips of your podcast episodes. Overcast has a great clip sharing feature to help you with this.
- Use a service like Chartable to post one easy link to your episode(s). Chartable figures out what podcast player they're using and will route them to it. And it also tracks all the clicks and downloads that result from your post.
Build out your Personal Brand and Website
- Create a home (website) where new listeners can find you. Most probably won't discover you from a podcast app/player, they will find out about you from a web search or referral from a friend. This means it's important to have multiple sources of content or repurpose your content for audio, a blog/episode show notes on your site, and even a video you can place on YouTube. The more exposure you have across multiple channels, the better chances new people will discover you.
- Post detailed episode show note pages on your website. This is great for SEO and great for attracting new subscribers.
Other Ideas
- Attend conferences and trade shows that relate to your podcast. Bring a stack of business cards to hand out as your network and meet people. You even could go so far as to renting out your own booth or being a sponsor of the conference.
- Run contests or giveaways for people that leave a review, subscribe or call-in. You could give away podcast swag or mention their review on air.
- Attend local meetups or events in your niche to raise awareness of your show.
- Join a podcast network that specializes in your content niche.
- Submit press releases to local media sources. Local newspapers and TV networks love to feature stories like this. The space is new and hip and they want to cover it.

October 2017 - A Round Up
October, you were quite the month. On the 1st of October an illegal referendum was held here in Catalunya. Turmoil, frustration, anger, upset, anxiety and loss of hope seemed to take over the region. Madrid battled to save the region, Catalunya battled even stronger to break itself away from a country it felt repressed by. I felt the anxiety building inside, it was all anyone could talk about. I made a decision, I decided this was not going to rule my month, it was not going to completely take over my life. I created a project. The Life & Times Of A Cat Lady - a daily gratitude video capturing the joyful moments of each day. I'm so very pleased I did.
Capturing the good in each day made me notice the joyful moments that I was so very grateful for even more. After a month of doing so, I now find myself inundated with thoughts of gratitude.
Here is my video round up of October. Below you can also find a playlist of my 1 minute gratitude videos for October too.
I hope you have had an equally magical month and that this inspires you to capture the everyday joy.

Power Play: Tall Kneel Chest Pass
When was the last time you moved fast? That time there was a spider in the shower? The ability to move quickly is important. Losing this movement quality could increase the risk of injury further down the line.
Your ability to move an object fast is called power. As we age, this is a primary skill we lose. The National Council on Aging tells us, "Falls are the leading cause of fatal injury and the most common cause of nonfatal trauma-related hospital admissions among older adults." Being able to move fast to catch yourself is useful, don't you agree?
One way we develop power at RD is with medicine balls. A tall kneeling chest pass is a great way to create upper body power and increase your ability to control your core. Plus, it's fun! Here's how it works:
1… Find an object you can move fast. Members want to choose a heavy ball because it's the gym and they have to pick up heavy stuff. Not in this case.
2… Set up far away from a wall or partner. Get far enough away that it takes some effort to pass the ball that far.
3… With both knees down, get tall. Squeeze your butt and turn your belt buckle up. This will help control your core.
4… Deep breath. Exhale and drive the ball away from you.
5… Don't lose position. Resist folding in half or losing balance. Stay tall.
This is a low impact way to start developing power again. Remember, power is about speed. Choose a light ball, pet or cousin to toss. Progress by standing, half kneeling or getting a heavier object when the noise wakes the neighbors. Power is important. People, smarter than us, agree!

Rice is one of the most widely grown grains in the world, feeding almost half the world's population every day. It is rich in minerals, containing calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and zinc, as well as folate, or B-9, and trace amounts of other B vitamins, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Nutrient Database. White, brown and wild rice are all slightly acidic.
Rice and pH
All substances, including food, can be categorized as either acid or alkaline based on a pH scale that ranges from zero to 14. The term "pH" is a measurement factor. A pH of zero is the most acidic, while a pH of 14 the most alkaline. A 7 pH is neutral. Cooked white rice has a pH ranging from 6.0 to 6.7, which makes it slightly acidic; cooked brown rice has a pH of 6.2 to 6.7, or a range equivalent to or slightly less acidic than white rice; and cooked wild rice has a pH of 6.0 to 6.4, which makes it more acidic than either brown or white rice, according to the Food and Drug Administration.

Dr. Hervé Damas MD, MBA is a former professional athlete, strength and conditioning coach, fitness professional and wellness director who has received training in general surgery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and diagnostic radiology at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami Beach, Florida. He practices yoga, pumps iron, meditates, ,eats organic, speaks three languages with his children and believes there's a universal higher power guiding our existence.
Through sports, Dr. Damas was introduced to the idea that the proper care of your body can increase performance and serve as a deterrent to injury and illness. As a kid working out, eating healthy, saying his prayers and taking his vitamins (like any true "hulkamaniac") eventually led to his landing a roster spot with the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League! A very unlikely but true story: from Port Au Prince, Haiti to Brooklyn, NY to the NFL! Who says dreams don't come true?
After a typical "Not For Long" NFL career, Dr. Damas returned to his roots- health and fitness. He became strength and conditioning coach at his alma mater, Hofstra University, designing programs for the football and lacrosse teams. Several members of which went on to successful careers in the NFL (of course, they couldn't have done it without him!) He subsequently left his alma mater to make an entry into the fitness industry with New York Sports clubs where he served as a personal trainer, fitness manager, educational faculty and guy that was entirely too big to wear yoga pants!
Dr. Damas subsequently took the position of Wellness Director at The College of New Jersey. While there, Dr. Damas also served as a professor in the Department of Health and Exercise Science. He taught yoga, exercise physiology, coordinated wellness expos, designed training programs for the colleges' athletic teams and lectured for The National Strength and Conditioning Association and American College of Sports Medicine. In his "spare" time, he pumped up his pecs for breast cancer research, walked for the march of dimes, put some extra special effort into the Special Olympics and built habitats for humanity.
Feeling a need to do help others even more (and a possibly masochistic need to have his ego crushed as a thirty-something year old medical student), Dr. Damas left the college to pursue a career in medicine. Ignoring how much money he was leaving behind (he thinks about that from time to time) and how much debt he would accrue (he thinks about that daily), he took a leap of faith to in order to pursue his path to personal fulfillment.
Fueled by his personal interests, experience, education and God given altruistic sentimentality, Dr. Damas founded Grassroots Medicine and Wellness. It is the culmination of all his life's work and comes as a realization of his true calling.
