"One of the Senator's maids was going to be spanked and a nervous air had descended on the house..."
College girl Melissa knows that Nicole Steadman is enigmatic and charming; a young Senator swept to power on a wave of social media and public adoration. Working as a volunteer on her election campaign, Melissa finds herself captivated by the older woman, seduced by her bold promises and thrilling idealism. And when Senator Steadman offers Melissa a job after the campaign is over, Melissa jumps at the chance, relishing the opportunity to be part of something big and life-changing.
But the Senator is driven by dark desires and insatiable needs, and the role she has in mind for Melissa is very different to what the naive young volunteer believes. Joining other girls at the Senator's vast house, Melissa finds herself employed as a maid, a domestic servant whose duties go way beyond cooking and cleaning. In no time at all, Melissa learns that the Senator's public persona is very different to how she behaves behind closed doors, and a tantalizing world of pleasure and pain reveals itself to her.
Is a life of lesbian servitude and submission what Melissa really wants? And what is the stunning secret behind Senator Steadman's epic rise to power?

// UPDATE // Found that using Wordpress, the embed script was causing the problem. Unfortunately, we have to use iframe to make it work 100% of the time.
We are using: Wordpress as the engine on our site. We tested our form using Safari, Chrome and Firefox. We are using Stripe Payment integration with the form. We are using the Wordpress embed script (not iframe) and we selected "Secure" under embed.
The problem is sometimes the form loads the first page (page 1) with both the Back and Next buttons visible (see screenshot below), then if this happens, clicking the "Next" button to advance the page does not work and it does nothing (i.e. the page does not try to load or nothing)
To get the form to work, the user has to refresh the site. Once only the Next button is visible, then the form would work correctly.
NOTE: The form works 100% correct when using Jotform preview or using the URL form link in any browser by itself. Once embedded in the site, then the form does not work 100% of the time.
[Screenshot one -- loading with both buttons, thus form will not work (advance to next page)]
[Screenshot two -- loading with both buttons, thus form will work (advance to next page)]

The reason it could also be having issue when embedded using the script code in your WP website, is probably due to script conflict that is happening between the existing scripts on the website on those script of the form.
The most simpler solution to prevent the script on the webpage from clashing is to load the other script on a separate iframe. Thus, embedding the form using its own iframe embed code make things work.
Please do let us know if there are still issue.
If you can also share to us the URL of your WP website where the form is embedded, we will be glad to check for more details also.

We have tragic news that we have been informed of today, that a proud Geordie and Newcastle United fan, Kenneth Rowe, was recently murdered with his sniffer dog, while serving in Afghanistan.
Kenneth Rowe – with Sasha – on duty recently in Afghanistan
Lance Corporal Ken Rowe, a British Army dog handler, a proud Geordie and Newcastle United fan, was tragically killed in southern Afghanistan last Thursday.
Kenneth was due to fly home the day before he died, but the Newcastle born soldier had insisted on staying, because there was no replacement in place, his commanding officer said.
Lance Corporal Kenneth Rowe, 24, of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, and his explosives search dog, Sasha, were doing their job protecting soldiers from roadside bombs in the Sangin area of Helmand province last week, when both were killed in a Taliban ambush.
Lance Corporal Kenneth Rowe
Major Stuart McDonald, Ken's company commander, said:
"He was scheduled to leave on July 23 but was concerned about the lack of ammunition and explosives search cover.â€
Rowe, who was said by his friends to be a proud Geordie from Newcastle, lobbied his unit to allow him and Sasha to stay on the front lines.
Major McDonald continued:
"This unselfish action epitomised his professionalism and dedication to his job.â€
Rowe's parents, Lyn and Kenneth, and his two sisters have been too distressed to make any formal comment.
Rowe was the 112th member of the British armed forces to be killed in Afghanistan since 2001.
This is a tragic death and we are so very sorry to hear the terrible news, for any soldier that dies in the service of their country.
And we are also proud as fellow Geordies, that there are youngsters like Kenneth, who are so brave and willing to give their lives in the protection of others.
To us he is an everlasting hero.
Our deepest condolences and heartfelt wishes go out to his family and friends.

you all are doing us proud out their, RIP mate
it feels like us geordies are having alot of heartache at the time being with such storys appearing, to see the honor of our geordie in this circumstance his family should be proud of him
should be a special seat from up their to see us play at st james park
I don't think you guys get Nathan's point. It's not so much that he's being a dick, but more about why should it matter that this particular soldier is dead when many soldiers have died in the war. The fact that this particular soldier gets a mention and loads of sympathy just because he's a Geordie fan is quite stupid. Personally it's hard for me to feel genuinely sad about his death
This is such sad news, Nick informed us about this the other day. My thoughts go to his family at the sad time. Look up the definition of Hero, it simply reads; Kenneth Rowe.
I'm so proud to call myself British, knowing that these brave men and women are serving Queen and Country, risking everything, in order to protect our civil liberties – All you 'Do Gooders' hiding behind the "Human Rights Act†should be disgusted with yourselves, you are a stain on our society. Brave men like this, losing their lives protecting you and I, yet all you can do is object about things such as prisoners rights, or the rights of burglars on your property – it's a disgrace.
Kenneth I hope you're having a ball up there watching us all panicking about MA spending is cash…! I'll be drinking to you tonight my friend, sleep well, we'll see you soon.!
Nathan man if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Your comment was uncalled for.
And don't think I don't know where you're coming from because I am often cynical about deaths pumped up in the press as well over the horrible lives being lost every second in the poverty stricken, terrible parts of the world with bad things constantly happening.
These feelings are often softened however when I remember – I'm a human with a heart. It is relevant because he was a Geordie and we are all Geordies. If you don't like, don't read it and don't post – no need to go upsetting people man, is there?
how heartless can you get nathanwhether this is about newcastle or not there are more important things going on in the world and this particular person happened to be a newcastle fan he may have been a very pasionate newcastle fan and was from what it seems from eds article a very passionate newcastle fan and was one of his main loves though i may have misinterpreted it but that was the reason for announcing it on this article also it is people like you nathan and i know it is a cliche but it is people like you nathan that is wrong with the world and that soldier that died has more respect than you can even begin to comprehend and if i have never said this before as i am not easily offended but if i was ed i would strongly considder banning him
he seems as though he was an extremely brave and honourable man to refuse a chance to go home because there was no one else to take his place meaning it would be more dangerous for others if he was gone i s the absolute definition of selflessness and courage
First and foremost, R.I.P. to this brave young man. Sounds like a proper character, and what a man for standing up to fight a very cruel regime.
Secondly, let me just comment on a few of the posts here. Let me be clear, I found Nathan's comment as insensitive as everyone else did, but I think (if you filter through his bluntness and perhaps ignorance) he maybe raises a half-valid point: This is indeed a football blog and if we were to mourn every loss of life in the service of Britain (or wherever we are all from) then it'd take up most of the page. I realize this young man was a Geordie, and therefore my point is a bit over-simplified, but I think this may have been the point Nathan wanted to raise. Personally, I do not think this blog has been over-the-top with personal/non-football articles thus far, but I would like it to remain quite limited like it has been. This is a NUFC blog after all.
Secondly, more in response to Black and White Blood: Very valid points mate, and you are truly entitled to your own opinions. I do think, however, that we should try to limit political talk on here, as people are likely to have passionate and very differing views. Someone might respond to you suggesting the need for oversight of the armed forces' activities so we do not see repeats of Abu Ghraib-like scenarios and they may have valid points too.
I suppose my overarching messages are:
-Deepest condolences to this brave young man's family
-Let's keep this Newcastle United fooball blog about exactly that: Newcastle United and football.

Social Budgets and Contributions11 Jan 2010 Many projects I do in my spare time are purely for the exercise and learning experience. I have been developing a tool I am calling social budgets. I am very political, but I get frustrated when I don't fully understand what is going on at a state and federal level. I like to have a deep understanding before I take action or even open my mouth. So I wanted to understand where the State of Oregon is spending their money and create a way I can voice my opinion on my priorities. So I created an Oregon Social Budget site. The next day I saw California released their budget, so I wanted to evaluate their budget and created a California Social Budget site. What did I learn?
- I learned about the ways that Oregon and California track their budget.
- How they spend and prioritize these budgets.
- I learned that even though governments are using the word "transparency", they don't actually make it any easier to get at the data.
- I learned about new agencies and commissions that operate at the state level.
- Federal Budget Priorities
- Congressional and Senator Contribution Tool

This is more of a typical Singaporean meal than most of the meals I post.
Last Saturday I had the flu and my fridge was pretty empty, so I shuffled to the food court at the corner of Geylang Avenue and Lorong 29 to have this for lunch. I don't really love the dark sweet sauce put on the pork. The pork belly was both chewy and crunchy as it should be. The broth was nice and peppery and the mung beans I ate because I felt deprived of vegetables.
I felt better later the next day.

If an Indian tribe, worked through all of the bureaucratic process with all the Bureau of Indian Affairs and may build an online casino in downtown Enid, are you for or against it? If you live in Enid and occasionally visit other casinos around the state, you probably run into people you know from Enid, partaking within the recreation supplied by the casinos. These are the same people that have left our town and so are spending their recreation dollars elsewhere. They are shopping in the stores, eating at the restaurants, and staying at the hotels within the area.
A brief history:
The power to run bingo games was one of the many concessions designed to tribes in Oklahoma. Then some very ingenious person created a bingo game that seemed like a slot machine. We supply seen small digital bingo card in the top corner with the display screen of the slot machine game. From that invention forward, Oklahoma casinos begun to spring up everywhere. After all, you are still playing bingo, just in the new and technical way. Later, a gaming compact between the tribes along with the State of Oklahoma allowed the application of Vegas style slot machine games, poker, and blackjack. Thus, bigger and casinos were built and so are still being built throughout Oklahoma.
A casino could only be built within historic tribal boundaries and after that placed in a very trust while using U.S. government. Since Enid does not have any casino, could be that the reason? Then upon researching Garfield County, Oklahoma via Wikipedia, it was found, that before the Land Run of 1893, Garfield County was named O County and was part in the Cherokee Outlet, occupied from the Cherokee people following the Treaty of New Echota along with the Cherokee trail of tears. Historically, the location was a hunting ground in the Wichita, Osage, and Kiowa tribes. Does that qualify us as being within historic tribal boundaries?
Positive aspects of a casino in Enid:
1. The revenues generated from casinos are delivered to operate tribal governments and programs for its citizens. In addition, a portion of the revenue is split with the State of Oklahoma.
2. Tribes use the revenues to improve infrastructure.
3. Related attractions are built.
4. Jobs are made.
5. The added income and influx of tourists increase retail trade.
6. Promotes tribal economic development.
7. The casinos donate to local charities.
8. A survey website of casino patrons found that over 80 percent from the visitors to casinos were interested in also doing something aside from gambling. So the casino becomes an anchor for other tourism attractions like family water parks.
9. The casinos create new lines of cooperative economic development between American Indians and non-Indian business people.
10. Casinos give you a magnet for outside money that would not previously exist.
11. Local resident who employed to travel outside with the area now stays within the location.
12. More construction jobs are made building casinos.
13. Gambling is definitely an accepted way for governments to raise funds. It is described as source of money which is easier to obtain since it is not a tax on individuals.
14. In several communities the next businesses showed an increase in profits, attendance, and customers after an internet casino came to their area:
a. Retail stores
b. Golf
c. Local arts and crafts shows
d. Hunting and fishing activities
e. Horse trail rides
f. Festivals and events had higher attendance
g. Movie theaters
h. Historical sites were visited more frequently
i. Scenic drives
j. Walking trails
k. Water parks
l. Biking trails
m. Roller skating
n. Fitness centers
Negative areas of a casino in Enid
1. Tourism dollars hinge about how well the casino pays out. Winners may spend freely, but losers may return purchases and cut their hotel stays short.
2. For some gambling becomes a dependancy.
3. Gambling kills time, and subtracts from time used on useful endeavors.
4. Locally-owned businesses go bankrupt because consumers have changed their expenditures to casinos.
5. Wealthy Indian gaming tribes pour huge amounts of money into political campaigns at both state and federal levels. (Source: Special Investigation by Donald L. Barlett and James B,. Steele, Time Magazine, December 2002.)
6. Wealthy Indian gaming tribes may also be influencing gambling and also other policies affecting Native Americans by handing quite a bit to influential lobbying firms. (Source: Special Investigation by Donald L. Barlett and James B, Steele, Time Magazine, December 2002.)
7. In towns with casino's, there is definitely an increase in the following:
a. Crime
b. Suicide
c. Addiction
d. Bankruptcy
e. Domestic violence
f. Drug and alcohol addiction
g. Divorce
h. Embezzlement
What is Gambling Addiction?
Gambling addiction is named an action addiction. When gambling, the endocrine system, adrenaline and endorphins, are self-produced. As the person gambles more often, it contributes to tolerance to the adrenaline and endorphins, therefore it takes more gambling far better stakes, to find the equal high. Recent studies show that slot machine gambling illuminates the human brain the same way that cocaine does. (Source: Stop the Casino 101 Coalition)
If an online casino were to petition to come to downtown Enid, what can be your opinion? Do you think it would enhance our community or bring social problems natural meats not want to deal with?

Last week I had posted about SFI. It is a wonderful opportunity to build a second income (and eventually a full time income.) Since joining, I have won several prizes and have also advanced to Bronze Team Leader over the week time frame. Yes I worked to get here, but they do make it easier when you apply the effort to succeed.
There are different ways to earn money here at SFI. It is a very supportive site to be a part of. There is an active community where you can post things in the forum and people will answer you. Of course if you join with me, I will be here to help you as well with a simple email or chat through SFI chat.
It's really amazing what they do to help everybody succeed. Seriously, they have a lot of tools you will need to succeed. And if you have money to invest because you are not good at recruiting, they have advertising co ops as well. I have thought about setting up a couple with my team, tho I have not yet. I am working on setting up a great team with the desire to earn money from their business.
We have a company that allows you to sign up for free with no obligation to purchase anything (purchasing helps you advance faster but not at all required.) There is free training and always sponsor support. What more can you ask for in a business that is 19 years old and still going strong. right?
But there is more. I have fun playing games too. I have won at the TripleClicks version of black jack called ZackJack. I also won free credits for bidding at the online auction site they have while playing Card King. They understand that if the affiliates are not successful, they will not be successful. And they have been offering many tools and support to help us succeed, which is how they have been successful for 19 years.
So far this company is a big winner here with me!
Looking to work at home with an online job? Dawn's Work at Home Blog was started to share tips for all who are looking to work at home online. Here are some things I have learned along the way from my work at home adventures.

Earn a Second Income Working at Home
For years I have been testing various work at home companies and for a while I was dormant on my blog because I always have to make sure it is a legitimate way to earn money. For a while I hadn't seen any that was really worth mentioning, but now I would like to talk about a company that has been around for 19 years.
SFI is a company that I started to really work with this month and I have seen so many positive things. I was seeing a lot of good things about SFI and I decided to jump on board and try it out. I am very excited about them as a company. They make it easy to succeed really! You do have to work, but they provide a lot of valuable resources to help us succeed.
I am looking for people who would like to join my team. Are you motivated and looking to succeed? Let's do this together! You do have to put work in, this is not a sit and do nothing kind of income. The work is not complicated and you can have fun with it - even play games and compete in contests. Tho there will be some work involved too, not just games.
It is free to sign up and there is no obligation to spend money in order to earn. It is not a get rich quick kind of thing either. If you are interested in joining my team and ready to commit to putting work in to earn online, please join me here - SFI. We can work together as a team and by joining through my affiliate link, I would be your sponsor so I will be able to help you. I look forward to being able to working together!

Earning With Neobux
Neobux is a company who has been since 2008. They are one that I am not so sure I understand the full potential of tho. Some members are earning a lot and I mean thousands a month - if my memory is correct it was around $2500 a month. BUT I have not learned that secret yet. They are a wonderful site to advertise on tho, if you are looking to get your work at home opportunity out there in front of many people.
You can join Neobux completely free and you can earn money completely free. I will tell you tho that it will take some time if you are not going to invest your own money. They are a paid to click site. You click on sites and view the advertisements and make a small amount for each ad you view. I did that for a few years, just playing around with the site because I don't usually like to spend money on sites like these (was always unsure.) But it took maybe 5 minutes out of my day at the time.
I did decide to upgrade to golden last year and you do get more ads as golden and your earning potential increases. I need to work on getting direct referrals that are willing to put 5-10 minutes worth of their time (or more if they are really up for giving the site their all) so I am not constantly renting referrals. That's right, I have not directly referred one person to Neobux, mainly because I was testing waters and trying to get the hang of it before jumping into direct referring - I like to test things first.
With Neobux you don't have to be a great sponsor. You can rent referrals. That is what I have been doing. The problem I have found tho is that rented referrals decide not to continue clicking ads each day and I have to learn the balance of recycling and extending to maximize my profits here.
Tho I haven't cracked the code to making thousands a month there (and to make that much, you do have to invest tho you can earn and invest earnings as you go so not to pay out of pocket), they have paid me. So are they a legitimate site? Yes, they are a legitimate site and you do have the potential to earn a nice amount of money there over time if you learn and put in the time and effort.
I would definitely recommend them and here is the link if you would like to join with me as your sponsor Neobux. I am hoping to be able to figure out a plan to making more money here, they have a lot of potential and have been up and paying for now going on 9 years. If I do figure out a plan for making more there, I will definitely pass information on to my referrals!

Divine Fortune is brought to you by Net Entertainment and is a 5 reel, 20 payline progressive jackpot slot that can be played on desktop, mobile and tablet devices from 20p to £100 per spin. The game takes you back to classical ancient Greek into a world of mythical creatures, golden coins, legendary fortunes and progressive jackpots.
Visually, Divine Fortune looks fantastic – with a dark and epic feel to it, symbols on the reels include Medusa, Nemean Lion, Minotaur, Phoenix and Greek-style playing cards (A, K, Q and J). Pegasus (the white horse) is the wild symbol and substitutes for all symbols except the Free Spins and Bonus symbols.
As for bonus features, there are 4 in total. First up is Falling Wilds Re-Spins feature which is played when a wild appears on the reels – the wild then shifts down 1 position with a re-spin awarded. This feature applies in both the base game and Free Spins feature. More wild symbols will continue to give you re-spins until all wilds disappear from the reels.
Then you have the Wild on Wild feature which is available in both the base game and Free Spins feature – it's triggered when an overlay wild lands on top of a wild. The wild then expands to take over the whole reel with a new payout consideration taking place.
Each wild symbol then shifts 1 place vertically on the reels with a free re-spin awarded – you will also get 2 overlay wilds on that reel. If 3 or more Free Spins symbols appear in the same spin as a wild, any Falling Wilds Re-Spins are played after the feature is over.
Then you have the Free Spins feature which is played when 3 or more Free Spins symbols appear anywhere in view in the base game or Falling Wilds Re-Spins feature. 3 will give you 5 free spins whilst 4 will give you 8 free spins. If you're lucky enough to get 5, you will win 12 free spins.
Look out for wild symbols during the feature as they will automatically trigger the Wild on Wild feature giving you a fully wild reel. Remember that the Falling Wilds Re-Spins feature also applies which can give you plenty of free re-spins to boost your winning potential.
Finally, there's a Jackpot Bonus feature which is played when 3 or more Bonus symbols (the gold coin) are collected in the base game (including the Falling Wilds Re-Spins feature). These bonus symbols are randomly place on the reels before the feature starts and has 15 independent reels which spin on their own.
Each bonus symbol can give you a win of between 10 and 200 times your stake! Furthermore, you will begin with 3 spins and the number of spins resets to 3 if a Bonus symbol lands on the reels. When the bonus symbols remaining sticky, you aim is to fill rows:
- Fill 1 entire row with bonus symbols to win the Minor Jackpot
- Fill 2 entire rows with bonus symbols to win the Major Jackpot
- Fil 3 entire rows with bonus symbols to win the Mega Jackpot
There's certainly a lot going on in Divine Fortune but it doesn't disappoint – I found it to be a medium variance slot with good winning potential in all features. There's up to 600 times your stake to be won in all bonus features which is decent but the big pull will obviously be the progressive jackpots.
Aesthetically, Divine Fortune looks fantastic – just hope that Lady Luck is smiling on you to bring you undiscovered riches from a forgotten world. If you like ancient Greek themed slots, Playtech's Age of the Gods is superb and also offers you progressive jackpots.

What HR Managers Need to Know About Hiring Millennials
Contributed by Sophia Beirne
Millennials seem to have a bad reputation when it comes to working in an office environment. As with most stereotypical representations, this is undeserved. Millennials are the people who will carry your company into the future with their innovative ideas and fresh perspectives. All you need to do is give them the tools to succeed. As an HR professional, there are a few things you should understand about millennials that will allow you to utilize their talents to the fullest possible extent.
Millennials Prefer Flexibility
This generation has many hobbies and prioritizes work-life balance. They need a career with flexible scheduling, and they'll appreciate your help in making that flexibility possible. They may want to cut out early if they finish their work at 3 o'clock. Let them. This will keep millennials motivated and prevent them from feeling burned out. They might even appreciate flexible scheduling more than other workplace perks.
Millennials Love Empowerment
Try letting millennials call the shots once in a while. They may have different ideas, but different doesn't necessarily mean bad. After they've been working in a position for a while, it's probable that they know their job better than you do. If they have any ideas relating to processes or the best way to perform their role, always be willing to listen.
Millennials Are Creative – If You'll Let Them Be
Every office can use more creativity, and millennials are one of the richest sources of innovation. Creating an office space where everyone's ideas are heard will allow them to feel like equal contributors. If you want innovation, this is exactly how you will get it. Encourage them to be themselves and think outside the box. If you craft the right environment, everything will naturally fall into place.
Millennials Will Spot Dated Methods
Millennials aren't made for the tired old routine. They tend to appreciate something new and fresh. This is why so many of them take jobs with startups. If your company has been stuck in the same rut for a while, you may want to consider taking some HR courses to freshen up what you know and learn some new methods. This way, you'll be able to meet millennials halfway.
Millennials Want to Do Good in the World
Millennials are a lot more socially and environmentally conscious than previous generations. This is where your company culture comes into play. As an HR manager, it's your job to mirror your leaders in enforcing the company culture. Place a strong emphasis on the good your company does for the world. Do you have any charity affiliations or company events that support the community? Make sure your millennial employees are aware of the good you do, and help them get involved.
Millennials Are Social Media Rock Stars
Good luck taking social media away from millennials. If you don't let them use it on company computers, they'll spend all of their breaks checking their phones. This isn't a downside to hiring millennials – it's a distinct strength they have that any company can play to its advantage. If your company has a social media presence, allow the millennials to take control. It will be a piece of cake for them, and the results you see will be better than ever.
Millennials are a force to be reckoned with. They're shaping the future of business, and many of them have a firm grasp on what they're doing. Allowing them to be themselves is key. While they may have different priorities from generations past, understanding these priorities will help you make the most of hiring millennials as employees.

Tuesday night had seen the best of them when they were more than competitive in the league against one of the title favourites Handsworth Parramore. Today they were for the most part always one step behind against a combative Long Eaton United in the Vase.
Injuries and suspensions had robbed them of key player, but in truth they were woefully weak as an attacking force today at Long Eaton.
The early exchanges saw Long Eaton on the front foot as Blaine Hancock puts his effort well over in the 8th minute.
Former Wren Alex Ford went close on 15 minutes but his attempted lob cleared the crossbar and minutes later his long-range effort was easily gathered by Ben Townsend.
The opening goal came in the 21st minute when an innocuous ball into the area struck a defender and fell into the path of Andy Todd, who made no mistake beating Townsend at the near post.
Rainworth went close when firstly Niall Smith's cross was deflected into the arms of Scott Low and then after James Munson's head-on, Smith was denied by Low's fingertip save.
On 36 minutes Brandon Clarke's cross was met on the volley by Jake Woolley but it was well over.
Rainworth had a lucky escape in the 43rd minute when Townsend left a ball that appeared to be going out but it held in the wind and came back off the upright.
With the last attack of the half Rob Ludlam's cross was met by Munson's head with Low struggling, but it was cleared.
The second half saw Rainworth come within inches of equalising when Smith's cross was played into Munson's path by Liam Royles but it hit the underside of the crossbar and somehow came out.
At this stage Rainworth were starting to threaten but lacked a finish to press home their pressure.
On 60 minutes Rainworth were thankful to Townsend who did well to block Tom Gamblin's effort.
Rainworth made their first substitution bringing von Bryan Dakouri for Munson.
The game was all but over in the 63rd minute when a hopeful ball upfield bounced off a defender into the path of the unmarked Grant Ryan, who needed no second invitation to run on goal and slot his shot past Townsend for the second.
Rainworth made their second substitution on 75 minutes bringing on Kieran Barnes for Royles in the 75th minute.
Rainworth had a chance in the 78th minute but Smith's effort deflected into the arms of Low.
Long Eaton went close in the 84th minute when a great finger-tip save by Townsend prevented Zak Goodson adding to the scoreline.
Rainworth had a couple of chances in the dying minutes when firstly Daniel Booth's effort went just over then Dakouri's free-kick hit the wall and deflected into Low's hands.
In the final minute Matt Savage did everything right but his attempted lob of Townsend was too high.
Rainworth must now regroup and prepare for what is a very important local derby against Clipstone who will be eyeing their first points of the campaign.
RAINWORTH MWFC: Townsend; Ludlam; Claxton; Booth; Wilson; Pemberton: Royles (Barnes); Waddle; Munson (Dakouri); Bebbington; N. Smith.

I set up the eMail client to be Outlook (2003).
Last night I needed to send out a mail merge, so I changed it to the ACT! eMail client to take advantage of that feature. I then moved it back to Outlook this morning, and it appears that ACT! is no longer linked from Outlook.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Oh, and yes, I did reboot the system just to be sure.
Try these steps:
- Go to Outlook and remove the ACT! Address Book
- Go through the E-Mail Setup Wizard from Preferences and uncheck Outlook as your email program
- Close Outlook and ACT!, then reopen Outlook, then ACT!
- In ACT!, go through E-Mail Setup again and re-check Outlook to use as your email program
- Then go back into Outlook and re-add the ACT! address book
Also, you may want to check Disabled Items under Help/About in Outlook to make sure the ACT! extensions were not disabled.

Note: Effective 6/1/13, Sage no longers provides support for the Act! software. This is now provided by Swiftpage.

Best Shot Monday now has a new feature. Themed Thursdays. This weeks theme was GLEE.
Glee: Joy; merriment; mirth; gayety; paricularly, the mirth enjoyed at a feast.
Here is my oldest on his 5th birthday. He is enjoying one of those ridiculously huge suckers that you would otherwise say N-O to at the store. I must say...he REALLY enjoyed it way more than I would have ever anticipated. That made me filled with GLEE. It didn't hurt that he barely dented it and 2 days later it found it's way to the trash. More Glee.

Arsenal's stunning eight-minute first-half spell stole the spotlight from Raheem Sterling as the hosts moved into second spot with a 4-1 Premier League win over Liverpool.
The Emirates Stadium faithful were treated to three goals shortly before the break as manager of the month Arsene Wenger's claims of still being in the title race gained substantial credibility, with his side having now won 10 of their last 11 top-flight games.
Hector Bellerin was the unlikely scorer of the 37th-minute opener and his curled effort sparked a match-winning period of dominance.
Mesut Ozil was next to contribute, shrugging off reports about his off-field activities to arrow home a stunning free-kick, with Alexis Sanchez completing a sobering end to the half for Brendan Rodgers' Liverpool.
Sterling won a penalty late in the second half, converted by Jordan Henderson, but there was no way back as Liverpool's UEFA Champions League hopes were left hanging by a thread – the visitors' disappointing afternoon compounded when Emre Can was dismissed and Olivier Giroud added a fourth in stoppage time.
And yet the script could have read so differently if Lazar Markovic had found his passing range in the 20th minute, when he failed to supply the ammunition for Sterling – starting up front in place of Daniel Sturridge – to net what would have been a simple finish.

Outdoor play information: Caring for your outdoor play equipment not only protects your monetary investment, but keeps your students happy and safe. Loose playground toys can get lost and could injure a child if left lying around the playground. And balls that are not inflated to their optimum air capacity will deteriorate over time. That's why it's wise to stock up on the supplies necessary to keep your equipment in good working order. Items like a ball locker will keep balls safe and sound in one secure place, and a pressure gauge and inflating pump will help keep your balls and other inflatables as good as new.

How Northern Ireland fans can prove they're great ambassadors against Republic, writes supporters chief
The Irish FA yesterday announced Northern Ireland will play a friendly against the Republic at the Aviva Stadium on November 15. Seven years ago, the Carling Nations Cup competition in Dublin was marred by reports of sectarian chanting. Here, Chairman of the Amalgamation of NI Supporters' Clubs, Gary McAllister writes why NI fans will only enhance their excellent reputation when they travel south this time
We've got to treat this match like any other away game. From our point of view as a supporters' organisation, we have to work closely with the IFA and the police for all away matches, and we'll be doing the same with this game.
Whether any problems arise remains to be seen. I have a lot of contacts within the IFA who want to speak to us and ensure the police are also in on that conversation.
We would have that process for every game, so those conversations are nothing out of the ordinary.
But we have to hear how the game will be approached, especially from a ticketing point of view, as it's a game lots of people will want to attend.
We've a hard-earned reputation for being well behaved and being good ambassadors for our country.
As Northern Ireland fans, we have made friends for Northern Ireland everywhere we've been, and this should be no different.
People have to remember it's a football match, but our message to people is very clear: you go along as a fan and you support our team.
It's important people remember that, no matter who we play. It's a derby match, and people will want to get one over on the Republic, but it's a football match.
We weren't drawn to play the Republic in the Nations League, so we're now playing a friendly game.
Michael O'Neill has given his reasons why he thinks it's a good fixture and the game has been arranged, so we'll support our team like we always do in any other game and hope for a win.
I understand the friendly date is now a mandatory date on which a game must be played as demanded by Uefa.
Since most of the other countries are playing Nations League games of their own, there were only a small number of options to choose from. I think there were only three or four countries we could have played and most of them would have involved considerable travel.
The team have to travel back for the important game against Austria, which is the following Sunday, so the options were limited. The focus will be on that game, which is much more important.
Our message is very clear, as it is for every away game - we go as fans to support our team.
Our reputation is of being well behaved fans, of being good ambassadors for our country, and I'm confident that will still be the case after the game on November 15 against the Republic of Ireland. We're looking forward to the game in Dublin.

Although it is out of focus; here we have a ladybird in the greenhouse today. Good to see
I have often mentioned growing celery ascut and come again, I cut this back about 3 weeks ago and it is starting to grow back, even in the shocking weather we have been having. It looks yellower than it is [must sort out that white balance...but it is a mobile phone pic so I'm not too worried]
These are the seedlings sown since Christmas day; they are put into the greenhouse as soon as they germinate and left to their own devices
These are the ones sown in Jan - same but just a tad smaller
This is the result of my Manure versus Bog Standard Compost Onion Trial. These were all sown on 31 May 2009 and a random handful were pulled and 9 were were put into each pot. One pot was full of a mix of normal compost and well rotted manure and the other just compost. I then just left them to their own devices, they stayed outside all winter until a month ago when they were put into the unheated greenhouse. They have been grown side by side the whole way through.
It is evident that the manure ones have not grown as big or as fat as the normal compost ones. I wasn't expecting that!!! The rest of the sowing was planted out under a long cloche and the second half of that experiment will be unearthed soon.

Have you set up following on your blog? I can't see a button, and I'm interested in your bean project. I'm doing something comparable with heritage peas, after a disaster last year when we had the worst flood in living memory just after I got everything planted out. I lost almost all my beans, but fortunately I have plenty of seed.

World Briefs I
AIDS Discrimination Case BeginsWashington Post
The Supreme Court heard arguments yesterday in a case that will decide whether a law protecting the disabled from discrimination covers people infected with the AIDS virus but not yet showing symptoms.
The dispute is the first involving AIDS discrimination to be heard by the court, as well as its first review of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Gauging by their reaction yesterday, the justices are struggling with the confluence of the two.
The case arose when Randon Bragdon, a dentist in Bangor, Maine, refused to fill the cavity of HIV-infected patient Sidney Abbott unless she would have the procedure done in a hospital rather than his office. Abbott sued Bragdon for discrimination under the 1990 law, which prohibits doctors and others who serve the public from discriminating against people with disabilities.
Bennett H. Klein, Abbott's lawyer, faced skepticism from some justices when he argued that Abbott, 37, is disabled because she is hindered in her ability to engage in sexual relations and have children. Abbott had successfully argued in lower courts that as a fatal disease, Some justices questioned whether reproduction is the kind of activity that Congress had in mind when it drafted the law, and included examples such as walking, seeing, hearing, breathing and speaking. Justice David H. Souter said that unlike breathing, for example, a person does not have to reproduce to survive. He also asked whether Klein was confusing "the moral limitation" Abbott placed on herself, so that she would not infect others, with a true physical limit on life's important functions.
Chinese Institutions May Be Exempted From Hong Kong LawsLOs Angeles Times
Hong Kong
After a Chinese institution's public failure to comply with Hong Kong's privacy law, the post-colonial government is trying to quickly enact a bill that could put Chinese state institutions in the territory above the law.
The Adaptation of Laws Bill would restore a British colonial practice of exempting the government from local laws and would expand the definition of the government to include mainland representatives in Hong Kong as well as local officials.
Passing the bill would be one of the final acts of Hong Kong's appointed legislature before it is dissolved April 8 and replaced with an elected legislature.
Critics say that the bill goes expressly against the Basic Law, Hong Kong's mini-constitution, which states that Chinese branches in Hong Kong must obey local laws.
"When I was a member of the Basic Law drafting committee, we were assured by mainland drafters that all branch offices were subject to the Basic Law and ordinary laws of Hong Kong," Martin Lee, a lawyer and the leader of the Democratic Party said today. "But this new bill is a major threat to the rule of law."
Armenian Poll Results AwaitedWashington Post
Armenians voted Monday in the decisive runoff round of the country's presidential election. While the outcome remained unclear, it was quickly apparent that there were problems in holding a clean vote.
Voters were choosing between two men who emerged from a 12-candidate field in the election's first round: Prime Minister Robert Kocharian, who has served as caretaker president since last March, and Karen Demirchyan, a former Communist Party first secretary who governed Armenia when it was a Soviet republic. The result of the runoff is not expected until Tuesday.
Workers at Demirchyan campaign headquarters, who predicted a close finish, said they were receiving complaints from around the country of poll watchers being ejected from precincts and of efforts to stuff ballot boxes.
Kocharian campaign officials, who claim their candidate will win by at least seven percentage points, said that Demirchyan was trying to disqualify the outcome in advance.

A man armed with a large knife enters the Huay Kwang police station in Thailand. But instead of being ganged up he is welcomed with a power hug from a police officer.
CCTV shows a man holding a big knife entered the police station in Bangkok.
But instead of shooting the distressed man, police Officer Anirut Malee calmly talked and convinced the assailant to hand over his knife.
Relaxed and with no signs of fear, Officer Anirut casually talks to calm the 45-year-old distraught man.
Eventually, the man surrendered the knife. Anirut immediately throws it away and embraces the man!
According to Anirut, "He used to be a musician but had been working as a security guard for three days and had not been paid. On top of this, he had had his guitar stolen and it was all stressing him out. I heard him out and sympathized and said I had a guitar to give him, and suggested we go out for a meal together. We were conversing in Southern Thai dialect".
Watch this incredible footage:
The unnamed attacker was eventually sent to a hospital for an evaluation of his mental state and no charges were reported.
Meanwhile, Officer Anirut Malee was praised and hailed hero online for his sensible actions.
One commenter wrote, "Such a very kind man. Sometimes, a little kindness is all a person needs. Much respect and gratitude to this fine officer."
This story just proves that violence can be prevented. Sometimes, understanding someone will do a greater good.

Sarpy County Sheriff Jeff Davis released the name of the man who led law enforcement on a chase through Offutt Air Force Base near Bellevue Monday afternoon. He says 21 year old Zachari Johnson, a homeless man in the Lincoln area was shot and killed by an Air Force security contractor.
Sheriff Davis says Johnson stole a vehicle Sunday night or early Monday morning in Lincoln. Inside that vehicle the owner had left credit cards and Johnson had used one of them at a Wal-Mart store in Gretna. Shortly afterwards Sheriff Davis says dispatch received a call of a car driving erratically on Highway 75 and Fairview Road. A deputy was positioned at that location and started following the vehicle but Johnson gave chase and ended up at Offutt Air Force Base.
Sheriff Davis says after circling a parking lot several times Johnson drove onto the base using the exit lanes at the SAC gate. Johnson tried to exit the base at the Bellevue gate but it was blocked by a Bellevue Police car. He then went to the Kenney gate that was blocked by vehicles. Sheriff Davis says Johnson wedged the vehicle between two others. It was shortly after he was shot by the Air Force security contractor.
Johnson has an extensive criminal record that includes theft and sexual assault. Lincoln authorities say there were no active warrants issued for Johnson but he was wanted for questioning in a theft.

This X-posted from modernpoly as part of a series of personal stories about Poly and Gender. Thanks go out to all the modernpoly folks for inspiring me to write this all down!
I became a gender non-conformist after discovering polyamory, and delighting in its demand for explicit communication about feelings and relationships. I soon adopted that level of communication in my relationship with myself; in many ways, polyamory inspired and fueled the more conscious exploration of my identity which followed. That journey eventually led to regularly choosing and redefining my gender. In this sense, I've tossed off the traditional role of "woman" that my culture has assigned me, and have been creating new ways of being a woman that I can call entirely my own.
I approach romantic relationships with the goal of staying open to possibilities of deep, flexible, and varied connections. This is also how I approach my relationship with my gender. I have a lot of traditionally "butch" qualities, but that doesn't mean I need to find "femme" in my partners or in any place outside myself. I feel lucky to have a wide range of potential partners and roles to explore, and a relationship model that demands I voice my choices explicitly. These factors create repeated opportunities to challenge false absolutes of gender: I don't just get to choose my partners explicitly and enthusiastically, I also get to choose how I present myself! I get to choose what I'll call this combination of qualities I exhibit, regardless of how it compares to others' placement on the "gender spectrum".
Being the woman I am pushes at the boundaries of who people have leaned to call a "woman" a bit. I let my body take up all the space it wants without apology. The wide shoulders I flaunt rather than conceal make me no less girly. I don't like being called a "chick" or "bitch". I can't stand being "baby," and I am decidedly not a "lady". But I am not a tomboy; Being into machines and beer and sweat does not make me one of the guys.
My clothing and behavior choices have never comfortably fit within the traditional definitions of the feminine. For now, as a feminist vagina-haver comfortable being called a "woman", I've taken it on as my personal project to be a woman in ways that are unexpected & unapologetic. I want to make the social construct of what a woman is bigger. Not just for me (although I do like taking up space); if I can get folks to see and respect that I am a (hairy, loud, greasy) woman, maybe it'll be easier for other unconventional women to be seen and respected. To that end, I always expect that people I interact with recognize that I am what I say I am when I say it.
I am extraordinarily lucky; this usually goes over pretty well. I've never had anyone say, "Oh really?" or question my womanhood outright. This privilege has made my life as a woman much easier. But I have had men balk, disgusted at my "manly" pit hair or other 'less womanly' attributes. I've witnessed incredulity on people's faces when I've expressed an attraction to men or put on a pretty dress. It's as if being recognized as a tough woman requires me to look and behave like a butch lesbian at all times. In some ways, I totally look like the "butch lesbian" they assume I am. I love looking and acting this way, but I am more complex than what people think I look or act like. Everyone is.
I choose my womanhood to be big: big enough to be both vulnerable and tough. This isn't something categorically female at all; It's just most comfortable for me to call myself a woman while navigating the bigness of my identity. I claim all my chosen actions as female; when someone insinuates that I or my actions are anything but, it disrupts my comfort.
This bigness isn't always easy to carry, either. The challenges I face in balancing and expressing my womanhood are usually small, but are damn insidious and pervasive. I live in constant denial and critique of the roles being thrust on women by society. They come from a lot of places, but especially from ad culture. I regularly question my clothing & presentation choices. I spend a significant amount of energy trying to make sure what I put on and into my body are things I really want, and not just echoes of the ad industry or my gendered upbringing.
Unfortunately, messages about my womanhood being too big are also buried deeply in my relationships. I can't deny that I get a self-righteous rise out of living in a way that combats ideas that I'm personally & politically opposed to, but I'd be telling a half-truth if I didn't confess that it wears me down. My mother wrinkles her nose and tells me that the pubic hair taking up sparse residence outside the reach of my swimsuit is "embarrassing." My father touches my stomach and suggests I "get rid of" the bulging belly I've come to love. I love my parents, and we have a great relationship. This is just how close it gets.
The way my gender identity stacks up in my romantic relationships is much more rewarding. I live with one of my male partners, and we usually take about the same amount of time to get ready before going out. He spends more time on his hair than me; he uses product. I don't. I love the outdoors, while he prefers the outdoors "stay out there." He's wonderfully fussy and detail oriented (which makes him a fabulous editor). I sometimes refer to him as "princess." This isn't an insult at all, between us; he is beautiful, high maintenance, and far more likely to wear glitter. And I like getting to be prince charming, whether it's for him or someone else.
To be clear, this sort of gender playfulness is just that–play. My partner and I both like playing with gender. Neither of us like that the divisions of binary gender have been made so mandatory in our culture. In my ideal future, the social construct of gender would disintegrate into nothing more than a massive roleplaying game (AKA gender anarchy). But I figure,before that can happen, a strategic vagina-having human like me should start setting their sites on making the boundaries between genders bulge and swell. I want to distend perceptions of gender. I want to show people that the stories they've been taught about "real" men and "real" women are completely made up.
I'd like to think I bring a healthy, important uncertainty to the choices I make about my gender identity and presentation. But sometimes the divisive doubts of the outside world do press into my skin. In the secret holds of my subconscious, the doubts mix into the uncertainty I use to daily choose my feminine self. I sometimes begin to believe I am ugly, fat, or unworthy; that I am not "doing enough" to deserve to be who I say I am; that all I'm doing is forcing my selfish fuss onto others. This often ends in a bawling heap of an anxiety attack.
This isn't every day (or even most days). I'm getting better at recovering back into my own cycles of choosing. More importantly, I'm learning how to tell off folks (men mostly) who try to shove me into their box of compliant, smooth, nurturing, and pretty woman. It's not that any of those words are ones I don't like to be from time to time (I am a world class nurturer, for one), but they are not the qualities I want defining me indefinitely.
I'm much bigger than that. I'm a woman.

It was just another Manic Monday….umm….without the manic part. It was actually a fairly boring Monday. I think my goal this week will be to mention some fabulous pop song from the 80's in all my posts. Bangles…check.
Today was a fairly awesome day. I got up and had my standard breakfast of eggs, an apple, some coffee and some water. Then I fooled around with my blog. You may or may not have noticed it is back on WordPress. A month or so ago I set this up and bought my domain name. Then I had a whole host of issues with posts not updating, or going missing altogether. I got mad and restarted over on Blogger. Well, for various reasons I decided I really wanted this on my own domain name. So, long story short I spent most of this morning fiddling around and trying to set it all up. If you were one of the few that signed up for emails they should still come through….but I am not positive. I added the email link here too, so just click and presto…me delivered directly to your inbox!
Anyway, by the time I was done fooling around it was time for lunch, which was awesome. Not because of what I ate, but because of what happened. We do snack lunches in this house. I am not sure why but vegetables that are referred to as "snacks" are apparently more edible. Here is the kids' snack lunch….
Pretty basic, some ham, some broccoli, a handful of snap peas, a bit of cheese and some raisins. Nothing crazy. Except my oldest doesn't eat things he hasn't seen before. Today he gobbled down his snap peas without batting an eyelash and then nattered on about how delicious they are. This is the same kid that last week ate Brussels sprouts. Yeah. Somehow in the past month I went from having a kid that refuses to eat anything, ever, to having a kid that eats Brussels sprouts…WILLINGLY. Needless to say, my mind was blown.
My lunch was pretty delicious. A giant sized salad, a 1/3 of a cup of cubed potato (leftover from yesterday's breakfast), and an oven baked chicken thigh. I used Renee's Salad Dressing. Don't tell the "paleo police", the dressing was made with canola oil. What can I say? I am a rebel. It was amazing and took me forever to eat it all. I was super stuffed.
Next up, I tried my new protein powder for "snack"…it was delicious…it is chocolate fudge flavour. I tried a new brand and it seriously tastes like a milkshake. Not the nasty thin, watery taste most shakes have. I would post a picture, but protein shakes are horrible to look at, even if they are delicious. I also had an apple because I keep hearing I am supposed to make sure I have protein and carbs in my snacks.
This brings us to dinner. We didn't get crazy with food or anything just leftovers. So we had the last of the roast beast from yesterday, some turnip and more of my bignormous salad from today. I chased that with some water and my multi-vitamin. I am now pleasantly full and merrily typing away to you.
That pretty much sums up my entire day. There was no working out today. I feel like a bit of a slacker, but the weather was nice and the kids were outside all day. So, rather than haul myself off to the gym I went outside, manufactured some Vitamin D and enjoyed a coffee in the fresh, albeit crisp, spring air.
So my friends this is where my day has taken me so far. Before I say good night, I just want to share one of my most favouritest songs from when I was a kid….
The 80's really are a wealth of fantabulous pop songs. Although, I don't know a single real Egyptian that actually walks this way.

She may be the new golden girl of Hollywood, but it seems not everyone has fallen for the charms of Jennifer Lawrence.
In fact, actor Jared Leto has claimed he is beginning to doubt how genuine the actress really is.
Jennifer made headlines when she was seen tripping over on the red carpet at the 2014 Academy Awards, having previously fallen over when collecting her award at the ceremony a year earlier.
However Jared - who scooped the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role in 'Dallas Buyers Club' - has claimed he's not sure whether or not Jennifer is putting on her clumsiness for effect.
When asked about her fall, he told Access Hollywood: "You know, I'm starting to wonder if this is a bit of an act".
He also confessed that he and presenter Ellen Degeneres were having a laugh at Jennifer's expense when she presented him with his Oscar.
The 42-year-old explained: "What [Jennifer] didn't know was that Ellen [DeGeneres] was on the side…making, pantomiming [motions like], "Don't fall, don't fall!", and my mom and brother are all cracking up. I guess we don't have manners. You can take them out of Louisiana, but you can't take the Louisiana out of them, right?"
Both stars were pictured in Ellen's now infamous Oscars selfie, which became the most retweeted photo in Twitter history when it was posted.

How important is DME Accreditation to independent pharmacy owners?
It's hard to believe, but it's already time for renew your DME Accreditation. It may seem a bit early, but per CMS, your Accrediting Organization needs your application around six months prior to your expiration date to ensure you can be surveyed prior to the expiration of your current accreditation.
You may be asking yourself, should I stay accredited?
The answer is –
Why? Well, there are three interrelated factors to consider.
Let's go over them now:
No matter how long you have owned your pharmacy and how successful you have been, you know what is going on in the industry – drug reimbursements are going down. In most cases this is not true for DME, they continue to have a higher profit rate than drugs.
Another item I am sure you are becoming more keenly aware of lately is the number of Medicare audits that are occurring across the country, clawing back billions of dollars annually from providers and suppliers. These audits are made easier when your pharmacy is accredited. And Accreditation provides you with a solid intake process that will help you and your employees better understand and comply with the Medicare Documentation Requirements and the Supplier standards.
Pharmacists have been one of the top respected professions for decades. This puts us in a unique position to care for our patients across the health spectrum, from drugs, DME and even education.
One of the areas that pharmacies have not taken advantage of in the past when it comes to DME, is the potential for cash and add-on opportunities to increase the patients quality of life, especially with your basic Mobility patients (including walker, canes, crutches and wheelchair patients). In many cases, these patients or their caregivers do not know what kind of items are available to them to make their lives simpler and more importantly safer.
No one is sure what will happen in the future, the exemption could go away.
But what we do know, several insurers, both private and state funded, have been in the process of requiring accreditation for DME.
Some of the insurers doing this recently have been:
- Security Blue (Pennsylvania)
- Maryland Medicaid
- Anthem
- two New Jersey Medicaid HMOs.
This will begin happening more and more, and we could see even our diabetic patients being pulled from us to get their testing supplies from an accredited pharmacy. Will they take their prescriptions with them?

In this video we discuss Sesamoiditis's causes, symptoms and treatment options.
There are two bones on the ball of the foot located behind the big toe joint and are called sesamoids (which are a bone embedded within a tendon). These help glide the toe up and down.
These bones absorb pressure from the ground as the foot pushes off when walking, making them susceptible to acute and chronic injuries.

It's November and I for one am excited for this month where we can focus on all the things we are grateful for! Today I am here to share one of our beautiful Lyon French Wired Ribbons that is the perfect addition to fall projects.
I really love this ribbon (Sandstone) because of the golden hues that come out in it, making it a perfect match for some fall projects. First, I used the ribbon as a border strip underneath my photos and then I tied a knot and topped one end of the border with it. Then to bring out those golden hues, I frayed the ends of my knot. It's a simple, quick, but striking way to add some different texture to your layout!

How to Order
The order process is the most important aspect of using essay writing services, and you should know how it works and how to follow the steps properly if you want to receive the correct work. This guide explains the steps involved in buying essay online, and important things to watch out for.
Defining What You Need
Different essay services may give you slightly different ways to order – for example, some services require you to pay after you have placed your order, and others require you to pay during – but in general things are mostly the same. Of course you will need to enter personal contact information such as your email address and telephone number. Most services send completed work via email, so make sure that you add your email address correctly.
You need to stipulate exactly the nature of your assignment, and what you need from the essay writing service. There will be entry boxes where you include information such as the paper topic, the length of the assignment (in pages or in words), the academic level (undergraduate, Master's…) and specific assignment requirements.
It is always a good idea to provide the most detailed requirements that you can; otherwise the work that you receive might not be what you expect. The results might be of excellent quality, but there is no guarantee that you will get exactly what you need unless you give a comprehensive account of what you need. Writers with essay services like to be given a detailed and accurate specification. There may be the option to attach documents.
Essay Writing Service Options
During the order process an essay writing service will also ask you to specify when you want your order to be completed. Shorter deadlines will mean a larger cost for the same amount of work. Some services offer the choice between a number of different quality levels. A very important part of academic essay writing is using citations. You should be able to choose how many sources that you would like to be included in the order, and you may be able to define the citation style and the paper format.
When you place your order, you will be able to add extra services and make specific requests. For example, proofreading may be available to choose as an extra service, and you may be able to choose one of the best writers hired by the service.
Making Amendments
It is very important to give detailed instructions and to fill out your order correctly. If not, the service may not be able to guarantee the assurances that they make. However, if you have made any mistakes or have forgotten to include certain information, you should be able to solve the issue by using one of the various contact options offered by the service. Your order should still be able to be completed by the desired turnaround time, as long as you get in contact and solve the issue quickly.
