Ferrero Rocher
Ferrero Ferrero Ferrero – it's disappointing to see you in Part 3 of 'Uncreative brands on Facebook' especially as Christmas is round the corner and your product has got to be one of the most popular 'I didn't know what to buy you' kind of gifts!
Firstly, why isn't this app you see on your right, on their Facebook Page…? Well designed, well branded and would regenerate some awareness as we lead up to Christmas.
This global brand has a few other of our favourite names under its belt, but we're focussing on Ferrero Rocher for this blog! It's very clear what their brand message has been in the past – 'we are an upmarket product for special events' …if this is so then maybe social media shouldn't be part of the strategy, there is an argument that it cheapens and ruins exclusivity of top brands when they build a social presence.
However let's look at Ferrero Rochers' price positioning – it is at a very similar or even slightly lower price point than Thornton's (who could be considered a rival…read more about them later). So their true strategy is to appeal to the masses, not a niche market and with that we can say 'Hello Social'!
Their latest advert is a bit of a change from their usual 'exclusive only' ads, with more of an emphasis on the 'social'. In fact Ferrero marketing director Mauro de Felip says: "The launch of these new creative advertising campaigns provides us with an excellent platform to exhibit our market leadership in special sharing and gifting. Both creatives capture the 'new' special that is relevant to consumers, and demonstrates our ability as a business to adapt to current market conditions and understand shifting consumer attitudes."
Did I hear 'sharing' and 'gifting' mentioned in there…never heard of social app's?…designed for the sole purpose of engaging customers through, wait for it…sharing & gifting!
As a short summary, this is a brand that has 12,561,656 'likes' on their Facebook page and '48,771' people talking about them, is repositioning itself as a social product and thinks of themselves as a market leader in special sharing and gifting and generate the most sales during the Christmas period. Let's look at their Facebook page shall we 😉
I'll very briefly, without moaning too much, go through everything that is wrong here before I make some suggestions.
Their last post was on the 21st of March (out of a total of 6 posts overall)…surely with Christmas around the corner they could have at least sent out one promotional post with a link to a website…with over 12 million viewers seeing that post even with a 1% conversion that could have resulted in 125,616 sales, at £5 a box (with the promotion) you could be looking at over 625K in revenue…need I say more.
There are absolutely no side apps for engagement, a few pretty pictures, with the first being a very outdated Valentines image, are the only things to hold your attention. Their Valentines picture alone had over 10K 'likes' and 307 shares, this is the perfect opportunity for a bit of e-commerce sharing.
My Idea; For Valentine's Day Ferrero could design an app where one Facebook user can send another user a virtual Ferrero box (which appears on their wall) and has a special message within. The receiver has to opt in to their app to be able to read the message. The sender can either remain anonymous or reveal themselves to their beau. This has the potential to become extremely viral, create huge brand awareness and build associations between the brand and Valentine's Day. This is not usually a holiday that Ferrero get the lime light for but think of the revenue that the chocolate must generate around the 14th of Feb! Earlier you read Mauro's comments about being the market leader for sharing and gifting…something must be done if you are going to prove that!
Let's take a look at the app that Ferrero have developed in comparison to the one that Thornton's have developed.
Ferrero have spent millions upon millions marketing their 'Rocher' product as an exclusive, upmarket and special product. I would not like to say what damage this app is doing to that image that they have spent years building. It's poorly designed, filled with cheap, unrelated ads and not even branded. Yet you can see that users are still using it, as many as 17K people have shared their products so it's clear that the concept really does work for their brand. They need to step up their game – as you can see Thornton's have a very well designed app that revolves around Christmas spirit, also providing products for their customers that are personalised with their own photos and then leads their users nicely on to their e-commerce site ' pat on the back for Thornton's, shame on you Ferrero.
Other ideas that i'm just throwing out there… the 'triangle stack' is one of Ferrero Rochers strongest brand associations. You could create some kind of social game that involves different levels where you have to select and unwrap the chocolates without tumbling the stacks, sort of like Jenga. Within each chocolate you get different postive bonuses. Or you could have different levels where you have to try and build the stacks on different types of tables with different levels of difficulty. You would have to reward your customers with a special 'party' voucher discounts for reaching certain levels otherwise there is no reason that you are keeping them engaged, and I don't agree with unecessary engagement!
Do you see where I am trying to come from with this 3 part blog? The main message is that if you are going to use traditional methods to advertise your brand then you need to bring the same message back to your social presence, because this is where consumers are connecting with your brand on a personal level. So if they get a completely different impression from you when they feel more connected then your traditional methods are just not going to resonate at all and you're wasting your time and money.
Not all brands are right for social media, if that's the case for your brand then stay clear completely, do not just create a page and leave it static because it looks awful and is doing irreparable damage!
I am going to be sending all three blogs to employees at the relevant brands and try to get some feedback from them about their poor Facebook pages, hopefully they will have something to say – I'll let you all know! Please if you have any questions about what you could be doing with your Facebook fan page, are looking for some creative ideas or just need a helping hand about where you are going wrong… leave me a comment below I'd love to hear from you!
I sent this blog to Guillame du Gardier who is the Digital Media Manager West & South Europe at Ferrero. He has expressed that his comments are fine to be shared. My thanks to Guillame for responding to me and letting us all in on how a huge corporation like Ferrero are handling changes to their marketing mix.
"I saw your blog post, thank you for your interest in our brands and social media presence.
Above social media strategy understanding is often the barrier of internal culture and organisation which makes it more than difficult to move in the new era of real time ongoing conversation. Companies like ours are not easy to organise to face these new challenges, we are moving step by step. Have a look at Tic Tac international page or Kinder France, Tic Tac France, Nutella Italy or nutella international on FBK, you'll see that we know how to manage this… But we can not go as fast as our consumers would like us to. Give us a bit more time and all our pages will be well managed, digital is key for us, but on a long term.
When you share your own opinion on what a brand should do to be successfull in social media campaign, you should always ask yourself about your true understanding of how the company in question works and behave. Only we, inside the company, do know the real obstacle we have to face. No company is full of idiots or stupid marketers. It's all about driving a change initiated by an event (the era of Internet) which changed our life so much quicker than TV or even radio did in the past. And this takes time to rethink your relationship with your customers, even more when you never have had to engage with them before."
Rather than providing my opinion on this i'd like to know what your thoughts are?

Block codes are first viewed as finite state automata represented as trellises. A technique termed subtrellis overlaying is introduced with the object of reducing decoder complexity. Necessary and sufficient conditions for subtrellis overlaying are next derived from the representation of the block code as a group, partitioned into a subgroup and its cosets. Finally a view of the code as a graph permits a combination of two shortest path algorithms to facilitate efficient decoding on an overlayed trellis.

I was originally going to do a year in review of how things went for me in 2010 but after reading Seth Godin's blog on the very same topic, I decided to go for his format and mention instead the things I shipped.
I like to think of "shipping" as the completion of an idea, project etc., to the point where I was able to put a stamp on the envelope and eventually ship it out. Packing the idea up but not shipping it doesen't count then, and I had a few of those alright. But anyway, here's my list of things I shipped in 2010, quite a few which you can find in my blog posts throughout this year.
- Posted 15 blog articles on my personal blog
- Applied for British Nationality and my new passport, I had procrastinated on this a lot
- Started and expanded meet-ups for my Rock Bands in London group; meeting some really cool musicians, promoters, photographers and more. Best achievement of the year
- Expanded my tutoring range more than ever, including tutoring children at primary school level and also with special needs like dyslexia, dyspraxia etc., It wasn't easy but it has made me a much much better tutor
- Went to a rock festival out of the UK (Sweden), I always wanted to do this and this was the year for it!
- Went backstage at BBC Radio studios, met a DJ and production team
- Actually performed all alone at an open mic night, after thinking about this for years..I finally went ahead and did this!
- Made lots of new friends on twitter, maybe you right? 🙂
- Met Ariel Hyatt at her London semiar
- Posted the band's CD to Peru, Brazil, Sweden, Japan, USA, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Scotland and more
- Revived my rock clubbing outings in London
- Started weight training at the gym
As I spent more than a quarter of the year in North Yorkshire, I will remember this as the year I spent there helping students achieve their best and discovering so many different parts of this beautiful county. I also travelled to Sweden, Italy and India, all very memorable trips and helping me learn more about the world.
Naturally there are also things that I didn't ship that I wanted to ship this year. Many of those things are work in progress and I should have shipped them out by now but I just ran out of steam or/and motivation. Also there are things I realised that weren't worth pursuing and I ditched them, I said no to the people I had to too. So this is just a good point in the year to look back on 12 months of activities and achievements.
See you on the other side my friend, bring it on 2011!

Friday's appointment at Dr Ram's Rapid Access clinic has been booked since the day we brought Martha home in October.
My main worry on our way there was the fact that her wound had become infected again, I convinced myself that because she only had her operation 6 weeks earlier - there couldn't really be any big changes in that department.
We usually catch the 07:22 train and have appointments for just after 11am - but this appointment was for 3:30pm so we caught a later train which got us in to London for 12:38. This meant Martha had time to have a decent sleep in her pram and we could all have some lunch before heading to the Hospital.
Martha started crying as soon as her name was called to have her Obs done. As she's a little older now we don't have to strip her down and put her on the scales to be weighed - she's just asked to stand on the scales on the floor. She was petrified of the blood pressure cuff and shrieked as it's grip got tighter around her calf. Her BP was quite high for what I am used to - but nothing was said about this. Instead of using the sats probe that we're used to on her foot, they put the clamp on her finger which gave an initial reading of 84% and creeped up from there...the nurse logged it down as 95% but I did see it at 97%.
We saw Dr Georgi Christov who knows Martha really well; but he hadn't seen her since March of this year (when he told us that she would need to have this operation) I was hoping that we would see Dr Ram as he was the one to discharge us in October and he had seen her last ECHO. Georgi even said "Martha Grace is not a patient for Rapid Access" as her anatomy is so complicated.
He read her latest notes and said "Oh my, this operation was much more complicated than we had anticipated. Professor Tsang is a Hero, they performed a miracle!" Mark shot me a look and I knew what he was thinking...that we spoke to the Consultant Surgeon (Dr Ben Davies) the day after the Operation and he had been happy with how the operation went, he didn't give us the impression that it had been more difficult than they had expected.
We told him about Martha's recurring wound infection and he jumped straight on the phone to Theatre asking for a Surgeon from Professor Tsang's team to come and check her wound.
The ECHO itself seemed to be over in no time at all. Georgi confirmed that there was still Obstruction present just below the Left Ventricular Outflow Tract - but we know this because Ben Davies told us they had resected as much as they could but we're running the risk of upsetting the patch for her VSD. But the velocity did not exceed 3.5m per second so he wasn't concerned and wasn't suggesting Surgery again. The patch augmentation done to her ascending aorta looked fine.
After the ECHO a surgeon arrived to look at Martha's wound, we explained how her scab had caught on her clothes and started bleeding and that she was already on a 10 day course of Flucloxacillin. There wasn't any discharge from the site but they took a swab to send to microbiology and was confident that it didn't need any stitches - just for us to carry on giving her the antibiotics.
When we got back on the train to come home we started messaging Family and Friends to let them know how the appointment had gone and neither of us really knew what to say. We didn't get bad news, but we didn't get great news either. To be honest we're none the wiser than we were on the day we left Hospital on the 20th of October. Maybe if we'd seen Dr Ram I'd have felt better because he saw her on the day she was discharged and he has seen the post-op ECHO's. Now we are waiting for an appointment to come through for the end of January as our primary Consultant (Dr Ian Sullivan) goes on leave in February and Georgi wants him to see Martha. One thing for sure is that Martha's Heart is a complicated one and we totally made the right decision to bring her to Great Ormond Street.
Now I think I'm ready to start looking forward to Christmas, now I can start looking forward to the things that I wouldn't let myself think about until this check-up was out of the way. On Saturday afternoon we took the girls out to Pringles for Tea and Cake (they had a Babycino) and started getting a few more Christmassy bits for the house because I wanted to get the tree up this weekend (pics will be up later in the week) I have a few more things lined up for the kids closer to Christmas too which I can't wait for.
Thank you all for your continued support.

Revamped lottery Point-of-Sale terminals enhance operational efficiency
Newcom approached us to develop an integrated lottery terminal that would improve operational efficiency on the retail floor in China. Operated by counter staff in lottery shops, this terminal had to facilitate ease of transactions and reduce the frequency of errors. To achieve this, the different functions required - scanner, processor and display - had to be integrated into one compact machine.
Integration posed a challenge as the machine had to accommodate ready-made internal components stemming from various sources, which did not fit easily together. Understanding each component's application and constraints, we determined the best performance-yielding configuration for the components. With ergonomics at the heart of our design, we optimized screen and keyboard angles for both sitting and standing positions. The angled profile of the terminal facilitates communication and enables eye contact to be established between the operator and buyer. Its clean interface design with grouped functional areas caters for clear and simple usage.
While most lottery terminals on the market have boxy exteriors which resemble factory-based equipment, we designed this terminal to relate to the excitement and anticipation commonly associated with lottery and sports betting. With its dynamic and sporty form factor, and splash of auspicious red (as regarded in Chinese culture), this terminal exudes a vibrant, modern appeal that is hard to miss.

Love in Truth
I. The two major messages of John set the stage for our brotherly love."
A. We are to walk in the "light" (1 John 1:7).
1. Because: "God is light and in him is no darkness at all" (1 John 1:5)
2. Therefore we are to fellowship "in the light" (1 John 1:7).
a. Walk in darkness – no fellowship.
b. Walk in light – fellowship and obedience
3. Since we know Him (via the light) we keep His commandments (1 John 2:3-6).
a. We do not love the world (1 John 2:15-17)
b. We abide in Him (1 John 2:28)
c. We do not practice sin (1 John 3:6-10)
B. We are, therefore, to love the brethren (1 John 2:7-11).
1. Basic command: "love one another" (John 13:34-35)
a. "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."
2. Love is perfected by obedience (1 John 2:5)
a. "…whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him."
3. Brotherly love is necessary to abide in the light (1 John 2:10-11)
a. "He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes."
II. The manifestation of brotherly love is illustrated both negatively and positively.
A. We cannot be like Cain either in deed or in attitude (1 John 3:12).
1. Cain killed because he was wicked (1 John 3:12).
a. He was "of the wicked one"
b. His "works were evil"
c. His anger drove him to murder the "righteous" brother.
2. Cain is the prototype of the Devil's handiwork.
a. Cain had first-hand knowledge of what was right (Genesis 4)
b. Hebrews 6:4-6 -- For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
B. We cannot follow Cain's "way" (Jude 1:8-11)
1. They "defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries."
2. They "speak evil of whatever they do not know."
3. They "corrupt themselves."
4. Jude 1:12-13 --These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots; raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.
C. We have the new life and the example of Jesus Christ as guides (1 John 3:13-16).
1. We can expect the world to "hate" us.
a. 1 John 3:13 -- Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you.
b. John 15:18 -- If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.
c. 2 Timothy 3:12 -- Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.
2. We have passed from death to life.
a. 1 John 3:14 -- We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.
b. Ephesians 2:1, 5 -- And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins -- Even when we were dead in sins.
b. 1 John 5:24 -- Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
3. We know that hatred of a brother is murder.
a. 1 John 3:15 -- Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
b. Matthew 15:19 -- For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.
c. Revelation 22:15 -- But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.
4. We have the ultimate expression of love in Jesus Christ.
a. 1 John 3:16 -- By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren
b. Romans 5:8 -- But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
c. John 15:13 -- Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends.
III. The command to love the brethren must be visible and practicable.
A. We are to mimic the selfless love of the Lord Jesus on our behalf.
1. John 10:11, 14-15 -- I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. . . . I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own. As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.
2. John 15:10-13 -- If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
B. We are not to avoid action when the need is real.
1. If we have the world's "good" (means to live), we must respond.
a. The loving (and wealthy) father gave to the prodigal son after repentance– undeserving and foolish error; "came to his senses" (Luke 15)
b. The destitute widow gave to the treasury "all that she had" (Luke 21)
2. If we see the need (extremity or inability to live, not a want), we must respond.
a. Members gave of their surplus to help needy (Acts 4:32-35)
b. Former thief now works so that he can give (Ephesians 4:28)
C. We are to produce "deeds" to supply the genuine need among the brethren.
1. 1 John 3:18 -- My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
2. Not just a kind word (theology) or a gentle tongue (deceptive sympathy).
3. James 2:14-18 -- What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
IV. The message is important to review and apply.
A. This kind of love is NOT . . .
1. It is not a gift of money to the poor. There are many biblical passages requiring discretionary "alms" to thru mercy to the poor.
2. It is not an obligatory "welfare" to the general populace.
a. The Bible nowhere commands such action. The Theocracy of Israel had a TAX for help to the destitute or infirm – our government attempts to emulate that.
b. The Bible rewards diligence and stewardship, not dependence.
c. The Bible condemns those who won't work or are foolish.
3. It is not gifts to Christians who want to live better.
a. The Bible does not promote "something for nothing"
b. The Bible insists that diligence and wisdom and obedience produces wealth.
c. The Bible teaches discipline and/or rebuke for those who "want but won't work"
B. This kind of love really IS . . .
1. It is for fellow Believers and not for Unbelievers. Love toward those who are outside the Kingdom is the Gospel and an example of holiness.
2. It is to meet the need of the Believers. It is to give the "ability to live;" not the ability to "luxuriate." The right to luxury is based on work.
a. Out of work temporarily – not consistently
b. Physically impaired (sick, crippled, disabled)
c. Mentally impaired (crisis, breakdown). NOTE: does not take the place of family obligations
d. Widowed, orphaned
e. Acts 4:32-25 indicates that this is best handled through church leadership.
3. It is also both implied and commanded that we meet the SPIRITUAL needs.
a. Bible knowledge -- Family counseling -- Christian education
b. Our generation is spiritually poor, not monetarily poor.
c. Perhaps we should consider using our money to multiply truth.
V. The active love will produce confidence in faith and in prayer (1 John 3:19-24)
A. Active love will increase our confidence in our faith.
1. 1 John 3:19 -- And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him.
2. Hebrews 10:22 -- let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith
B. Active love will eliminate conviction of incomplete obedience.
1. 1 John 3:20 -- For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
2. 1 John 3:21 -- Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God.
C. Active love will undergird our prayers.
1. 1 John 3:22 -- And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.
2. Matthew 7:7 -- Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
3. Matthew 21:22 -- And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."
D. Active love will provide confidence for our assurance and our works.
1. 1 John 3:23-24 -- And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment. Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
a. Salvation (loving God) guides life (loving brethren)
b. Faith (repent & believe) produces works (Christ living in me)
c. Knowledge (study & awareness) drives action (deeds and wisdom)
2. Ephesians 3:12, 16-19 -- in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him….that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
1 John

We have had some amazing vendors take part in our Saturday Market events over the years and without them there would be no event! We want them to know that we appreciate how much time, effort and money that it takes to participate. These entrepreneurs are out there doing what they love to do! That is what America is all about!
When Laurie Kennedy came to City Hall in 2010 with a dream of having an event that would give opportunities to local crafters and entrepreneurs, I knew it was a great idea. At that time I was tied up with the planning of the City's 100th birthday celebration and wasn't available to help make her dream a reality. But Laurie was determined…and she persevered, found a location, and in 2011 the journey began. With the help of some friends and her husband, the first Aumsville Craft Market was launched. Sadly, Laurie passed before the second season began, but her dream didn't. I don't tell you this story to make you sad; I tell this story because I want everyone to know the history and passion that got this whole thing started. I am so proud to be a part of a very passionate woman's dream. It is amazing how one person's tenacity can change so many lives.
In 2012 the Aumsville City Council approved my request to pick up where Laurie left off. We moved the event to Tower Park next to City Hall and hosted between 12 and 17 vendors throughout the season, raising $800 for our PARC Summer Camp. Since then we have brought in more than $8,000 toward Aumsville parks and activities; to purchase equipment and support summer programs!
I guess what I really want to give emphasis to is that when you sign up to be a vendor or shop at these events, you are taking part in something much bigger than a one day sales event. You are part of a dream, sharing your passion, and touching the lives of children and families through various programs and other park events. So even if the traffic is low, if shoppers are in short supply, or the weather is adverse; I want you to know that your time here is valuable and your riches come in many forms.
I have been so blessed the last seven years to have met so many wonderful people! I am looking forward to 2019 and all of the wonderful things that it will bring!
Thank you!

I love this little red tree of mine. I use it almost all winter long for Christmas and Valentines Day. Make these super cute conversation heart ornaments and hang them on a tree of your own or give them to your own Valentine.This post contains affiliate links. Thank you to Oriental Trading for sponsoring this post.
So simple, just get both halves of the heart ornament and fill them with the conversation heart candies. Secure the edge with some clear tape.
Loop some twine into the holes and hang from your tree. These are perfect just to give as is or personalize it with some vinyl!Let me know if you make them! I love these and Malakai won't stop staring at them.

As most contractors are now fully aware, the MSC legislation came into effect in April '07. A major part of the legislation is 'Transfer of Pay as You Earn and National Insurance Contributions Debts'.
Contractors need to be aware that in all cases they are always the first port of call that HMRC come to for payment of additional tax and NI assessed.
We believe that if a notice is issued to a contractor they will be unlikely to be able to appeal. An appeal can only be made where the contractor can show that a misinterpretation of the services or legislation has occurred. The reality is that HMRC would have already carried out an investigation on the provider before issuing the notices, therefore they already have a good understanding of the offering.

Stramit Longspan® Roof and Wall Cladding
- 700mm Cover – quick installation and easy handling.
- Easy Fixing – conventional through fixed screws maximise performance and installation.
- Hi-Tensile Steel – light weight and high strength with improved damage resistance.
- Spring Curving – new data for curved roofs.
- Design Flexibility – long lengths and anti-capillary side laps enable Stramit® Longspan cladding to be used effectively on applications from vertical wall cladding and fascias to roofs with pitch as low as 1.5°.
- Fully Tested – a full range of load performance tables to suit most applications.
- Extended Spans – strength and rigidity of the profile allows economical construction.
The striking linearity, strength, wide cover, light weight and weather resistance of Stramit Longspan® cladding make it perfect for many commercial roofing and walling applications. Its excellent strength and ease of assembly allow for long, economical spans.The good water-carrying capacity and weather-tightness permit very low roof pitches, leading to economies in the building structure.
Stramit Longspan® cladding is also used for domestic applications, where a strong but uniform appearance is desired.
Stramit Longspan® cladding is manufactured from hi-tensile G550 colour coated steel or alloy coated steel. In some locations galvanised and severe environment colour coated steel may be available by arrangement. Colour coated steels are in accordance with AS2728 – Category 3 and, for the substrate, with AS1397. Zinc-aluminium alloy coated AZ150 and galvanised Z450 conform to AS1397.
Stramit has a comprehensive range of colours as standard. Ask your nearest Stramit location for colour availability.
Adverse Conditions
Stramit Longspan® cladding will give excellent durability in almost all locations. It is however important to choose the correct coating for each application environment.
Please refer to the table on page 3 of the Stramit Longspan® Product Technical Manual shows the suitability of coating types for different exposure conditions.
Please refer to the table on page 3 of the Stramit Longspan® Product Technical Manual for the approximate site exposure conditions.
The suitability and exposure tables are guidelines only; conditions will vary from site to site. If uncertain about the appropriate coating for a particular application, or if the product is to be used in environments affected by industrial emissions, fossil fuel combustion or animal farming, contact your nearest Stramit office for advice.
All building products need to be checked for compatibility with adjacent materials. These checks need to be for both direct contact between materials, and where water runs from one material to another. The following guidelines generally avoid material incompatibility:
For zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel, colour coated steel and galvanised steel roofs avoid copper, lead, green or treated timber, stainless steel and mortar or concrete.
In addition galvanised steel roofs should not receive drainage from aluminium or any inert materials, such as plastics, glass, glazed tiles, colour coated and zinc-aluminium alloy. Contact Stramit for more detailed information.
Stramit has in-house, purpose built, testing equipment used to design, develop and improve products for the Australian market. In addition many Stramit products are tested or witnessed by independent organisations.
These include:
- Cyclone Structural Testing Station (James Cook University)
- The University of Sydney
- Monash University
- University of Queensland
- University of Technology, Sydney
This ongoing research and development activity ensures that Stramit remains at the forefront of innovation, design and consumer information.
Architectural Specification
This specification can be found on the Stramit web site and can be easily downloaded onto your documentation.
The roofing/walling shall be 0.42 (or 0.48) mm BMT Stramit Longspan®cladding in continuous lengths with trapezoidal ribs 27mm high, spaced at 100mm centres. Sheeting material shall be protected steel sheet to Australian Standard AS1397, with a minimum yield stress of 550MPa (Grade G550) and an AZ150 zinc-aluminium coating with or without an oven-baked paint film of selected colour. The sheeting shall be fixed to the purlins/girts in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Suitable fixing screws in accordance with Australian Standard AS3566, Class 3, shall be used at every support with side lap fasteners installed at mid span if required. Sheets shall be laid in such a manner that the approved side lap faces away from the prevailing weather. A minimum of 50mm shall be provided for projection into gutters. Flashings shall be supplied in compatible materials as specified; minimum cover of flashing shall be 150mm. All sheeting shall be fixed in a workman-like manner, leaving the job clean and weathertight. Repair minor blemishes with touch-up paint supplied by the sheeting manufacturer. All debris (nuts, screws, cuttings, filings etc.) shall be cleaned off daily.
The spans shown below take account of 'normal' foot traffic and wind resistance including local pressure zone effects. Pressures are based on AS4055 or AS1170.2. Where the two standards differ, the worst case has been taken for each classification. Data should only be used for buildings 7m or less in height, 1000m2 or less in area and unaffected by land topography.
The Serviceability Limit State Capacity Table is on page 4 of the Stramit Longspan® Product Technical Manual.
The Strength Limit State Capacity Table (Non-cyclonic) is on page 5 of the Stramit Longspan® Product Technical Manual.
Foot Traffic
Foot traffic limits for Stramit Longspan® cladding are shown for three alternate foot traffic categories. These are:
- High Maintenance – for applications with repeated maintenance, particularly where personnel may be unfamiliar with correct procedures for walking on metal roofs.
- Normal – based on traditional expectations, with moderate maintenance foot traffic using designated foot paths.
- Controlled – spans that conform to AS1562 but require minimal careful foot traffic only on the designated foot path. Suggested for use only where occasional aesthetic imperfections from foot traffic are acceptable.
For more information on foot traffic performance of Stramit Longspan® cladding and other Stramit®roofing profiles refer to Stramit's Foot Traffic Guide.
Spring Curving
Stramit Longspan® cladding can be spring-curved, concav e and convex, including curved ridges, provided it is sealed at the apex, and within the recommended limits below:
For more comprehensive information on spring curving Stramit Longspan® cladding and other Stramit® roofing profiles refer to the Stramit Spring Curving Guide.
Thermal Expansion
All metal roof sheeting is subject to thermal expansion and, where there is a temperature difference between the sheeting and the structure, this needs to be accommodated. The colour of the sheeting will affect the amount of thermal expansion, and whether the sheet is flat or curved will affect its ability to resist without problems. Sheet lengths should be limited to those shown below.
Water Carrying
Stramit Longspan® cladding has a superior water-carrying capacity, to most close pitched trapezoidal profiles. This and the decking stiffness enable roof slopes to be as low as 1.5° for many applications. Roof run lengths are the combined lengths of all roof elements contributing to a single pan drainage path. This can include the roof length upstream of a roof penetration that concentrates flow into other pans.
Please refer to the table on page 6 of the Stramit Longspan® Product Technical Manual gives the minimum roof slope (degrees) for 100 year return period rainfall intensity.
For more information on water carrying performance of Stramit Longspan® cladding and other Stramit®roofing profiles refer to Stramit's Roof Slope Guide.
Cyclonic Areas
Cyclonic Data for Stramit Longspan® cladding can be found in the Stramit Cyclonic Areas Guide.
Information on the use of Stramit Longspan® cladding in the Darwin area can also be found in deemed-to-comply sheets No M/147/01. This is available from Stramit.
All fastening screws must conform to AS3566 – Class 3. They are to be hexagon headed and must be used with neoprene washers. For connecting to purlins or top hats use:
|For steel (0.75bmt or greater)
|- No.12 x 45mm self-drilling and threading screws for crest fixing
|- No.10 x 16mm self-drilling and threading screws for pan fixing to walls
|For timber (F11 or better)
|- No. 12 x 65mm type 17 screws for crest fixing
|- No. 10 x 25mm type 17 screws for pan fixing to walls
|Side Laps
|- No. 8 x 12mm self-drilling and threading screws, or
|- 3.2mm diameter sealed aluminium pop rivets
Fastener Locations
Stramit Longspan® cladding can be fixed with either 3, 4 or 5 fasteners per sheet at each batten/purlin to meet the required performance values, as shown below:
Stramit Longspan® cladding is readily installed with or without fibreglass insulation blanket. If practical lay sheets in the opposite direction to prevailing weather. Installation of Stramit Longspan®cladding is a straightforward procedure using the following fixing sequence:
- Ensure all purlins are in line and correctly installed and that mesh and blanket (if specified) are in place.
- Position and fix the first sheet ensuring the correct sheet overhangs (minimum 50mm). Ensure that screws are not overtightened.
- Continue to fix subsequent sheets checking that sheet ends at the lower edge are exactly aligned.
It is important that the underlap of one sheet does not protrude beyond the overlap of the next - if this is unavoidable, the underlap must be trimmed locally or water 'drawback' may occur.
- Measure the overall cover width at top and bottom of the sheets from time to time to avoid 'fanning'.
- For roof spans exceeding 900mm and wall spans exceeding 1200mm, stitch the sidelaps at midspan.
- Turn up the pans at the upper roof edge and turn down the pans at the lower edge and install flashings.
- Clean up the roof after each days work, removing all screws, cuttings, swarf etc, and leave roof clean and watertight.
Stramit Longspan®cladding is suitable for use with insulating blanket. Glasswool blanket up to 50mm thick can be readily used. Increased thicknesses require longer fasteners and greater care in installation.
As with all roofing products, we recommend extra caution be taken when walking on the roof. When walking on Stramit Longspan®cladding roofing always wear flat rubber soled shoes and place feet only on the ribs, taking care to avoid the last rib or two near edges of the metal roof area.
Good Practice
Stramit recommends that good trade practice be followed when using this product, such as that found in Australian Standards Handbook HB39.
Stramit Longspan® cladding can be easily cut, where required, using a power saw with a steel cutting blade or a power nibbler and, for localised cutting, tin strips. Avoid the use of abrasive discs as these can cause burred edges and coating damage. Please dispose of any off-cuts carefully.
Prices on Stramit Longspan® cladding and its accessories can be obtained from your nearest Stramit location or distributor of Stramit products. As Stramit does not provide an installation service, ask your tradesperson for a supply and fix price. Contact your nearest Stramit location for the names of tradespersons in your area.

Stramit Longspan® cladding is supplied cut-to-length. When designing or transporting long products ensure that the length is within the limit of the local Transport Authority regulations. The manufacturing tolerance on the length of product supplied is +0, -15mm.
Stramit Longspan® cladding can be ordered directly, through distributors, or supplied and fixed from a roofing contractor.
Delivery can normally be made within 48 hours, subject to the delivery location, quantity and material availability, or can be at a pre-arranged date and time. Please ensure that suitable arrangements have been made for truck unloading, as this is the responsibility of the receiver. Pack mass may be up to one tonne. When lifting Stramit Longspan®cladding, care should be taken to ensure that the load is spread to prevent damage. Packs must never be placed onto unclad purlins except directly above portal frames
Stramit Longspan®cladding should be handled with care at all times to preserve the product capabilities and quality of the finish. Packs should always be kept dry and stored above ground level while on site. If the sheets have become wet, they should be separated, wiped and placed in the open to promote drying.
Exterior surfaces of metal products unwashed by rain can benefit from occasional washing to remove build-up of corrosive salts. Walls beneath eaves or awnings are such a situation.

Small Group Electronic Voting Systems
Basic activities in life can become hectic. It may seem like you can't manage your time. However, there's no reason for you to always feel out of control. With great tips like those in this piece, time management is an attainable set of skills.
Utilize a timer efficiently. When you can't focus, a timer can keep you on track. The more you practice this technique, the more ingrained it will become.
Work ahead of time to get things done. Establish tomorrow's agenda at the end of each work day so that you will be fully prepared. A great way to finish your day is to create tomorrow's to-do list. When your tasks are laid out for you to see, it is easier to get right to work.
Calendars are a great way to manage time. Many people like the feel of a physical calendar that they can write on. On the other hand, some people like the convenience of keeping track of their tasks and appointments using calendars on their electronic devices. Whichever method works best for you, a calendar can help keep your tasks organized and make you more efficient at managing your time.
Put more emphasis on the individual tasks that you have. People who multitask end up lowering their quality of work. You may become overwhelmed if you are attempting to get more done than you can handle. Take your time with each task and work carefully. When one task is complete, start on the next task.
If you feel that you are always running out of time, look at your problems with fresh eyes. Look at the ways you tackle problems and tasks. If you can't concentrate on tasks or stick with them until completion, then figure out why. To effectively manage time, you must figure out what you're getting from the procedures in your current workflow.
Order your daily tasks in terms of priority. Tasks which don't matter shouldn't take up too much time. Put strong effort into tasks which really need to get done. Keep a list on hand at all times with the important tasks on top.
Think about the way you use your time now. You must be smart about it. Don't listen to voice mail or return emails unless you've assigned yourself the time to do so. Only check these at specified times when you aren't busy doing anything else.
Realize that it is okay to say no. Undue stress often occurs just because people can't tell when to say no. If you don't have time for everything, look and see what is on your list. Can you delegate anything to someone else? If so, maybe your family and friends can help.
Write a to-do list based on the priority on the tasks involved. Begin work on each task in order, starting with the tasks that appear first on your prioritized list and working on each task in order. If you have trouble recalling your tasks, make a copy of the list to keep with you.
It is possible to manage your time wisely. If your head is in the right place, using great ideas like these can get you back in control of how your time is handled. Be sure to put these helpful tips to use.
Seeking Knowledge About Time Management? You Need To Read This Article!
Do you have a hard time managing your time? If you can relate to this situation and want to get better at it, then you found the right place! The article below has the time management information you need.
Set a timer. If you can't seem to focus, use a timer and allocate yourself whatever amount of time that is available. For example, if you're trying to work for two hours, you should set your timer for every thirty minutes. This way you're able to take a break and continue on until the task is done.
Allocate wise use of your time. Figure out just how much time it'll take you to do each task. This allows you to manage your day effectively, easing a stressful life. If you find yourself with some unexpected time on your hands, use it on yourself or to get caught up on other things.
Begin your day by studying your schedule and making any necessary changes. If you know what to expect, and what you need to do when you begin your day, you are more likely to reach your goals. Review your day's schedule so that you have not penciled in too many things.
Look at your current levels of productivity to see which areas could use improving through time management skills. If you are losing focus on your tasks at hand, find out the cause of it. To improve you have to admit to inefficiencies and mistakes. Don't let your pride get in the way.
If time management comes hard to you, plan days the night before. You can accomplish this by preparing a to-do list at the close of each day or by preparing a more extensive action plan. When you do this, you can calm your mind; not only that, but you can more effectively handle pressure during the day.
Understand that it is alright to refuse. Many people suffer from too much stress because they can't say no. Check your schedule to figure out what is costing you time. Can you delegate anything to someone else? If there are, talk to family and friends to help.
Make a list of what you want to accomplish and put the most important things first. Begin work on each task in order, starting with the tasks that appear first on your prioritized list and working on each task in order. Never try to simply remember what's on your list. Take your list with you wherever you go, and look at it frequently.
Effective time management can be accomplished with helpful tips. This article has so much advice, you can't go wrong. Put these tips into practice and reap the benefits. You will soon see how simple managing each day can be. Internet Ballots

Centre Sings ready to crown winner
It's going to be a show-stopper.
A vocal competition will showcase local talent while raising money to benefit Interfaith Human Services on Sunday at St. Paul's United Methodist Church in State College.
"It's for Centre County residents to help out Centre County residents," IHS Executive Director Ruth Donahue said.
IHS, formerly Interfaith Mission, is a State College-based agency that financially helps residents in need.
The goal of the event is to raise $20,000, with 100 percent of the proceeds benefiting Interfaith's giving and outreach programs.
The semifinal round of the competition was May 9 and included 23 acts. A dozen singers — ranging in age from 8 to 79 — will move on to Sunday's final round.
Those who made the cut are Riley Blake, Janelle Bullock, Kaylee Corl, Roger Herman, The Intonations (Elizabeth Hamlett, Lily Najjar and Rowan Sheridan), Megan Irwin, Zachary Kramer, Halle Mitchell, Dori Puzycki, Hannah Richardson, Eva Swanson and Jerry Watson.
Each participant will get a professional photograph, a gift bag and other prizes. The runner-up will receive an award and $150; and the winner will get a trophy, $500 and the chance to sing at Centre Sings 2015, Donahue said.
Isaiah Adu, 11, made it to the semifinals but won't be competing on Sunday's event. He was, however, given the IHS Community Impact Award for raising $1,600. The semifinalists, as a group, raised $3,206, Donahue said.
"To be able to have this caliber of individuals to step forward has been wonderful and been a real community effort to put this on," Donahue said.
Other than the " Wishing Well Campaign," which raises money through donations collected outside The Corner Room and Meyer Dairy, Centre Sings is Interfaith's major fundraising activity, Donahue said.
"It'll be a fun night that makes a big difference for hundreds of people," Donahue said. "We know there are a lot of people hurting in a lot of different ways." The event, she added, is "fun, fulfilling and functional."

Introducing NZ Trophy Safaris
Our Partner Company for High Country Free Range Hunting
New Zealand's majestic Southern Alps hold some of the finest hunting to be found anywhere in the World. NZ Trophy Safaris offer the finest in both 'free range' and 'game ranch' trophy hunts. Join our expert professionals guides to shoot Red Stag, Himalayan Tahr, Chamois, Fallow Deer, Elk, Alpine Goat, Wild Boar and Wild Ram.
Based in the beautiful Southern Alps, we offer some of the best value hunts in New Zealand. Whether it's your annual hunting vacation or the trip of a lifetime, our team will work very hard to deliver an awesome hunting experience.
|Game Animals
|Book A Trip
Wild Boar
|With a keen sense of smell, and good hearing, the Wild Boar is a challenging animal to hunt. Spotting and foot stalking with rifle and bow are popular, as is the traditional Kiwi method of hunting using dogs and a knife, known as pig sticking.
Red Stag
|Common throughout New Zealand, smaller in structure but related to
Wapiti (Elk). Puts on an aggressive display during their rut and very
vocal with a roar like call from late March to late April. Some males
produce huge thick beams with many points, but a good stag could be
anything over 12 points. Best hunted late February to August.
|New Zealand's largest alpine trophy, a broad shouldered, huge shaggy maned mountain goat with thick short horns. The striking appearance of the contrast in colour between the blond mane and black rear makes for an excellent life size mount. A tough animal surviving the harshest of alpine winters. Can be hunted all year.
|A fine featured nimble footed antelope with short vertical hooked horns.
Has uncanny eyesight with a speedy retreat. Comes in two distinct

Wild Ram
|There are two species of Wild Feral Ram (Ovis aries) in New Zealand. These are the Merino and the Arapawa. Both rams feature curling horns often with 1 ½-2 ½ curls on each side, forming elegant horns that make for excellent trophies.
Wild Goat
|The Feral Goat (Capra hircus) is widespread throughout New Zealand and is a popular trophy for all hunters and a particular favourite with bow hunters as the inquisitive nature of the animal often brings it within comparatively close bow range.

Let's face it – when you offer a service where you are paid by the hour, there is only so much time that you have available. That means that you have to figure out a way to maximize on the time that you do have. However, you must do this without skimping on the quality of your service.
How do you do this? Create scarcity. This tactic is a very popular one in the marketing industry. "Limited timed offer!" "Only available while supplies last!" "Offer only valid until __!" I'm sure you can think of a few examples just sitting here reading this. Why do companies use this tactic? Two words – it works! Internet marketers and big companies alike use this tactic successfully.
One thing to keep in mind, though, is that scarcity in any coaching business is going to be scarce to begin with. Many people make the mistake of overestimating the amount of billable hours they will have in a week, assuming that they will have 40 hours by which to set their rate. However, when you operate your own business, not all of the work that you do will be billable.
Because of this, it is smart to calculate a reasonable number of billable hours that you could actually stick to and base your rate on that. More than likely, you will see that the number of billable hours that you have are actually pretty scarce. So now you have to work out a plan to maximize on those available billable hours. But how?
One thing that you can do would be to avoid doing just one-on-one coaching. You could set up automated email coaching programs, webinars, and small classes that enable you to coach several clients at once. Then, you would be in the position to offer one-on-one coaching as a special option for those who meet certain levels in your program's membership.
Doing this allows you to maximize on your time while still providing quality service to your clients.

So many people think that I've gone crazy. "No gluten, no dairy, no legumes, no processed sugar? Are you Insane? What do you eat?" But it's really not as crazy as people make it out to be. Yes, finding a snack is a bit harder than it used to be, but that doesn't mean I don't eat. Actually, on the contrary, I think I eat MORE now than I did before going paleo, however, it's what I eat that's so different.
Let me take you through a typical day for me. Alarm clock at 5:20am, with coffee already brewing (delay start coffee makes are a heaven sent!), then I heat up some of the breakfast that I made for the week on Sunday. I enjoy a cup of coffee with breakfast and the news, then I'm off to the gym. Spin class at 7am-8am followed by lifting, stair stepper and abs. Shower. Class. Lunch. Class. Class. Home around 6:30pm. Cook dinner (or heat it up if I was smart enough Sunday Food Prep like my friend over at The Lean Green Bean), watch some TV, do some homework, then of course make sure I have everything ready for the next day. Then I try to be in bed by 11pm at the latest.
I have a very planned schedule, but this you should know from my last post. The most important planning that I do, however, is planning what I make for Sunday Food Prep as well as planning what to bring to school. When you're on campus for twelve hours it's not only important that you bring healthy foods, but also that you bring ENOUGH of them! Why? Because if you bring lunch, but don't bother to bring an afternoon snack when you know you're not going to be home until 6:30pm that donut sitting on the conference table is going to look MIGHTY good.
So, as the question usually is, what do you eat?
Well here are some of the things that I've made in the past few weeks (both pre- and post- start of my paleo journey, all of which are paleo recipes.)
PaleOMG's Rutabaga Bacon Breakfast Hash
PaleOMG's Apple and Butternut Squash Hash (added scrambled eggs)
PaleOMG's Easy Crockpot Breakfast 'Pie'
PaleOMG's Meat Crust Quiche
PaleOMG's My New Go-To Meal
PaleOMG's Peach BBQ Turkey Meatloaf
My own version of Beef Stew inspired by Robb Wolf's Version
PaleOMG's Maple Mustard Short Rib Bacon Burgers
PaleOMG's Easy Chicken Bacon Bowl
Biggest Loser inspired Mexican Sweet Potato
Spinach Salad w/ green apple and Steve's Original Wild Berry Dressing
Cauliflower & Broccoli
Brussel Sprouts
Apples, Carrots, Oranges, Anything from Steve's Original, Sweet Potato chips, Nuts with Raisins
As you can see, there is NO food lacking in my kitchen! Actually, I believe that this is the best that I've eaten all of my life. And the best part? All of this food is CLEAN! Clean and tasty! Once I got in the habit of grabbing some veggies and meat to throw together something delicious it wasn't that hard. Mind you, you can see that I've had a lot of help from PaleOMG and others in this adventure, but that's the glory of the internet! With a simple google (or bing, but I'm definitely a good person) search you can find something EASY and CLEAN to satisfy your taste!
Until next time please enjoy eating my food with your mind!

The June Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Jasmine of Confessions of a Cardamom Addict and Annemarie of Ambrosia and Nectar. They chose a Traditional (UK) Bakewell Tart... er... pudding that was inspired by a rich baking history dating back to the 1800's in England.
I haven't pulled photos yet for this, but I used a standard shortbread crust with a Victoria sponge. The jam for my Bakewell tart was a locally canned strawberry rhubarb. The whole thing was quite tasty. Photos forthcoming soon!

Hey Buyers! Turns Out There's More Inventory Than You Thought
Have a look at what hit our email in the past couple months, and the companies heavily marketing "pocket listings", "off market" property, or "not on MLS" opportunities.
You, the buyer, would probably like to know about these opportunities, wouldn't you? Well…you can't. Not until these brokerages wake up and join the year 2013, move beyond "private" or internal email as the method of choice for delivering these opportunities, look to social networks for some guidance as to where the buying (and selling) public lives, and get with the program!
Pacific Union, McGuire, Zephyr, Paragon, TRI Coldwell Banker, Vanguard, Sotheby's, the list goes on and on…you ALL have pocket listings, and you're all marketing them "privately", so let's make an effort to encourage each other to participate in an alternative marketplace to bring these opportunities to your fellow agents and the public, rather than continuing to shove this growing marketplace under the massive bureaucratic rug that is our National, State, and Local Association of Realtors. And for heaven's sake, quit throwing your colleagues (Climb Real Estate) under the bus for taking a step in the right direction! (You know who you are.) It's high time an alternative to the MLS takes shape, and the opportunity is right here and now.

I read things all the time that I find offensive — usually things that are political and/or sexist. If I blogged about everything that I read that irritates me, well, I'd probably sound like a pretty hateful blogger. But today I read something that was so appalling and hate-filled that I couldn't not share it with you. As much as it pains me to send more traffic to this website, you can read the full article, apology, and comments here.
You really should read the article because I can't do its awfulness justice, but I'll summarize a bit for you. The article is basically a reaction to a new CBS sitcom, Mike & Molly, which is apparently about an overweight couple who started dating after meeting at Overeaters Anonymous. The author of the Marie Claire article, entitled "Should "Fatties" Get a Room? (Even on TV?)," states the following:
"So anyway, yes, I think I'd be grossed out if I had to watch two characters with rolls and rolls of fat kissing each other … because I'd be grossed out if I had to watch them doing anything. To be brutally honest, even in real life, I find it aesthetically displeasing to watch a very, very fat person simply walk across a room . . ."
"I have a few friends who could be called plump. I'm not some size-ist jerk."
"And while I think our country's obsession with physical perfection is unhealthy, I also think it's at least equally crazy, albeit in the other direction, to be implicitly promoting obesity!"
Those are just a few "highlights" of the things she had to say. She also provided some general advise for improved health and weight loss. It later became clear through the blog comments and her "apology" that she struggled with and was hospitalized for anorexia and bulimia. I felt compelled to comment on the article because I found it extremely outrageous and hurtful. The following is the comment I left:
As someone who has admittedly struggled with your own body through an eating disorder, I am genuinely shocked by your lack of empathy for people who struggle with their bodies, though in a different way than you did. While you should be commended for overcoming your own struggle, you should also understand, probably better than a lot of others, how difficult the journey of overcoming body image issues and eating disorders of all kinds really is. I find it sad and discouraging to hear that someone such as yourself would find obese people so disgusting and appalling to watch. Reading your post made me wonder what my thin friends think when I walk across a room or publicly show affection. I'm not proud of my obesity. I struggle with it every day. But I know in my heart that I am more than just an obese person and that I have a lot to offer the people around me — and I'm sure the actors on the show do too. You have minimized all overweight people and the daily battle they go through, especially those of us who are genuinely trying to become healthier people.
I am so floored by not only her article but also by some of the comments and subsequent articles. Most commenters gave her the business, but not every one did. Some people stated that she had the right to her own opinion, which I will sadly admit is true, and others agreed with what she had to say. I think she is entitled to her opinion, I think that she has the right not to watch the show and the right not to be friends with so-called fatties. What I find extremely troubling is that a women's fashion magazine such as Marie Claire would allow one of its contributors to use its website as a platform for hate-mongering.
We all feel badly enough about ourselves as it is. There are external pressures every where to be thin, beautiful, funny, smart, successful, etc. Really, pick your poison. There is something out there that we all think we are not "enough" of. I'm not saying that we should all lie about how we feel or skirt important issues for the sake of everyone's feelings, but there has to be some level of sensitivity. And the author of the Marie Claire article can say all day that she's just being honest about how a lot of people feel and that she thinks that obesity in America needs to be addressed, but seriously, she was being mean-spirited and unkind and thoughtless. We all have opinions that can be seen as offensive but I would like to think that we are smart enough and kind enough to keep them to ourselves or discuss them within our close circle of friends and family or at the very least take into consideration political correctness or provide some kind of counter argument/opinion to level the playing field. Marie Claire posted a one-sided diatribe about how having fat people on TV makes people uncomfortable. The fact that such an article was conceptualized, written, and posted makes me uncomfortable.
Furthermore, picking on a group of individuals and saying that they gross you out based on some generally unifying characteristic, well, everything about that rubs me the wrong way. Being a size-ist is akin to being homophobic, racist, or sexist. Size-ism may not be as serious as some of those examples, but it is born out of the same thought process — making assumptions and generalizations about people you don't know based on your own preferences. All fat people are gross and lazy and shouldn't engage in PDA? Seriously? She really said that? She did (well, I loosely summarized that). It was totally crappy and mean. And I genuinely hope that she realizes just how hurtful some of her statements were. Being thin or at a healthy weight does not automatically and universally make her better than people who aren't or make her more deserving of love or happiness or success. It just makes her thinner and/or healthier than someone else.
Did you think the article was hate-filled? Or was the author just expressing the opinion she was entitled to? If you were overweight, do you think you would be offended by her statements?


text: When your car isn't properly maintained a lot of things can go wrong. The other day I ran across a Facebook post that caught my eye. A fellow auto shop owner, Ken Quasney of Auto Sense, posted a picture of a ball joint that had separated from the lower control arm. In the text of the post, Auto Sense summarized this problem and its probable cause.

You have to admire this guy. Andres Iniesta is doing all he can so that he is available for Barça's crucial game against Valladolid on Sunday. He just resumed training with the rest of the squad a couple of days ago, after a string of injuries that have ruined his season so far. Most professional footballers would just make up excuses and concentrate on recovering in time for the World Cup. But Andres is different: He has FC Barcelona at heart and will do all he can to contribute to the team.
Iniesta has only played 28 La Liga matches this season, which is obviously not enough for a player who is key to Pep Guardiola's scheme. He has been extremelly unlucky with the number of injuries he has picked up this season - I believe this may be caused by the fact that, in the past, Andres has played games when he wasn't fit enough, such as the 2009 Champions League final against Manchester United. Despite that, reports are optimistic and suggest that Iniesta has been outstanding in the last 2 training sessions, his only problem being lack of match pace.
Taking all this into consideration, I would prefer our Number 8 to start on the bench initially and, depending on how the match develops, decide whether to use him or not. As I said my previous article 'Barça need a new brain', I think the best option is to play Busquets, Yaya Toure and Keita in midfield, with Messi and Pedro in the wings. I would also give Ibrahimovic another chance to prove himself as a striker, at least for the first half anyway.
I really do hope that it all goes well for him and he can help us win La Liga on Sunday while keeping healthy.
Força Barça!

GIANT fossilised snake skeletons found on Cape York have unearthed new links to the Dreamtime myth of the Rainbow Serpent.
Fragments of the giant prehistoric snakes, known by the scientific term madtsoiids, that once stalked the Earth have been found by cavers and scientists in the secret "fossil gold mines" of the state's deep north.
Dated back to the Pleistocene epoch, between 2 million and 11,700 years ago, the fossils are believed to be akin to a constricting python, a predator that grew up to 7m long and as thick as a telegraph pole.
Experts question if the giant snakes intersected with the arrival of the earliest humans and if the extinct creature is the latest clue into the mystery of the popular Dreaming story of Australian Aborigines.
The Rainbow Serpent is a story of creation, where a creature of immense proportions moulded the barren earth into mountains, rivers and gorges as it moved across the featureless land.
