Quick Tips To Make Sure That Your Twitter Is Seo FriendlyWhen looking for a reliable, knowledgeable SEO consultant, Denver business owners keep a few key qualities in mind. They want to make a good choice from the start, since time is of the essence when it comes to trying new strategies. Finding the right SEO consultant could quickly make a major difference in profits.
Which qualities are most important to look for? Business owners in the area agree that there are four factors that encouraged them to hire their SEO consultant. Here�s what they�d recommend.
Productive Communication
As in any useful business relationship, communication is essential. This means more than frequent communication�anyone can respond to every piece of email they receive. It means speaking in a productive way.
When working with an SEO consultant, a Denver business owner must feel heard and understood. If their questions are being answered with objective, rehearsed responses, this is a clue that the consultant doesn�t fully understand the particular business owner they are working with. The best relationships between consultants and owners come from fruitful communication.
Knowledge of Best Practices
SEO and other marketing strategies change fairly rapidly. The way consultants learned SEO at the beginning of their careers might not be relevant in marketing conversations today. For that reason, a great SEO consultant will bring knowledge of current industry best practices.
When working with a business, they�ll understand that the owner wants all the latest tips and tricks on how to make SEO succeed. They�ll also make it clear that they�re working to update their knowledge base as they go.
Quality Work Examples
As they choose an SEO consultant, Denver business owners want to see examples of great work that person has assisted in creating. Just as a homebuilder would show examples of beautiful homes they�d built, an SEO consultant should be able to show great websites they�ve optimized to build traffic and profit for that business.
Without these examples, business owners can feel confident in trying out a different consultant. A great one will be eager to show what they know, an element of transparency that will enable a new customer to trust them with their own website and content.
Finally, after hiring an SEO consultant, Denver business owners want one major outcome: results. They�re investing time and money to make their business better, and they�ll want to see a difference quickly.
What results look like will depend on each individual business and its get more info goals. However, increased website traffic is a good indicator that SEO work is leading to that website being found more frequently online. When a business is at the top of a list of search results, that is a win in itself.
Moving Forward
When choosing a consultant, Denver business owners learn more about SEO and make positive changes to their business models when they choose someone who can make results happen. Through great communication, knowledge of best practices, and proven work samples, they help a variety of businesses succeed.

Somebody ported Nethack to Steam!
I've posted about Nethack before. It's one of the first dungeon slash-em-up games. It was the very first computer game I ever played and it ate a whole year of my life. Thirty four years later, it's still the most fun game I've ever played.
Because even the very first PCs were capable of storing incredibly large and complex relationships between variables, which is "all" Nethack is.
Take the humble cockatrice. If you touch a dead cockatrice, you turn to stone. Fine, once you learn that, you never touch another dead cockatrice. You probably know better than to eat a tinned food ration that smells of cockatrice. Ah, but what if you fall into a pit on top of a cockatrice? Stone. What if you've been temporarily blinded and you're feeling your way across the floor and suddenly, dead cockatrice? Stone.
But wait. But what if you have a pair of gloves? Can you run around poking monsters with a dead cockatrice and turn them into stone? Yes. Yes, you can. Just don't trip and fall on it.
Under the hood, the formulae that create the dungeon and the monsters therein are incredibly complex. I could never work out some relationships from behavior alone. It wasn't until I peeped at the source code that I began to understand how complicated a thing it really is.
Anyway, Steam reviewers are crying foul. Nethack is a giant cooperative labor of love and you're not supposed to charge for it. There are plenty of places still to play it for free.
But I paid less than £4 for this version and, as far as I'm concerned, I'm not paying for Nethack. I'm paying for the dev's effort putting it on Steam. It includes some light music and effects and a decent manual. And Steam achievements, if you care.
I paid for my very first version, too. It was technically to cover the cost of the floppy.
See? I play semantic games, too.

How bad is this thing going to kick my ass?
I know very few of y'all are gamers, but if there are any out there…while I'm waiting for this thing to download…how bad is The Talos Principle going to kick my ass?
It's a puzzle game, see. And I'm not very good at those, and that makes me feel stupid, and that makes me feel sad. But it's also really pretty and got good reviews, and Steam has the whole bundle at 79% off right now.
I didn't buy the Portal games for years because I was afraid of the ass-whoopin'. (Also the fact that both protagonists in Portal are female made me suspect some kind of social justice shoehorn, but I was way wrong. Their bitchy relationship was one of the best things). Turns out, the puzzles weren't that hard and the whole experience was one of my favorite works of fiction ever.
Anyway. Talos Principle. If I'm sad tomorrow, you'll know it's because I feel stupid.

Plus, you get a dog
Longtime sweasel commenter Ermine bought me a game. This astonished me, as I didn't know anyone else could see my wishlist, let alone buy something on it. Thank you, fellow weasel!
Disclaimer: nobody else follow, pls! Most of the stuff on my wishlist isn't stuff I actually want, it's just games I'm keeping an eye on for one reason or another.
But Fallout 4 I really did want. Ermine is an open-worlds kindofa a mustelid, as am I, so he knew I'd like it.
And I do. I got frustrated the first few hours (I died and died and died), but eventually got a handle on it and am enjoying it muchly. It's a shoot 'em up in post-apocalyptic Boston, which is fun. I can't say I recognize many of the places, but I do the names.
I recognized part of the Freedom Trail, though, which really is set with red bricks in the sidewalk. I'd forgotten that!
So that's what I've been up to. Games, I realized, remind me of incredibly vivid dreams: they feel like real and amazing experiences at the time, but they fade away, leaving mere wisps of memory.
Oh, well. Everybody's got to waste time.

Return to Skyrim
So Bethesda Softworks just released a version of Skyrim for PS4, five years after the original PC version. As part of the new port, they updated the background textures and decided to give PC players the newly refurbed version for free. Which is cool.
The new version is hilariously buggy. Well, the crashing all the time wasn't so hilarious, but that was simple (if strange) fix: disable the Touch Keyboard process using Task Manager. (How people figure out these obscure bugs so fast, I do not know).
The funny thing is, I can tell the difference between the old textures and the new textures, I'm just not sure I prefer either one. Scroll down this article to see what I mean. They should call it Skyrim: Vaseline Edition.
Anyway. Don't care. Happy to be playing this old favorite again. Anyone on Steam who hasn't friended me yet, feel free. AuntieWeasel. Gives me the warm fuzzies to see you guys playing games instead of doing anything productive with your lives.

Beta test!
CD Projekt RED, the Polish company who made the Witcher games, is hoping to break out the in-game card game Gwent into a standalone tournament game. I signed up for the beta, because of course I did. I love beta testing, with a special emphasis on breaking shit.
I've broken this one a couple of times, but I don't see any place to brag about it. Perhaps because this isn't even the beta — that's scheduled for late October. This is a pre-beta effort to punish the servers and see what they'll take. It's not even keeping score. It's no fun if they don't keep score.
I'd say they have a ways to go to compete with Hearthstone — which I have also played since the closed beta. Though, to be honest, I've kind of dropped out of Hearthstone at the moment. One too many expansion packs have overwhelmed my limited ability to do sums in my head.
Oh, they said it was okay to post screenshots, but to bear in mind that a lot will change.
Me? Better by the day. Went in to work this morning. Still not fully myself, though.

Take care, big guy
Dude in the picture is Geralt of Rivea, a professional monster slayer and the protagonist of the Witcher books and computer games. I have spent a lot of time with this guy.
I know I've posted about Witcher 3 Wild Hunt before. It's the last of the series and it is absolutely huge. Like, physically huge on disk (53 gigs, as opposed to Skyrim's 14) and huge to play, with literally hundreds of side quests and places to visit. Which you can do in more or less any order you like, which makes it feel more like a place and less like a movie.
There's even an in-world card game that you play against characters you meet, sometimes for important stakes.
The game has been an enormous hit, equally because it's beautiful and because it's well-written. Many of the side-quests are their own complete novellas. It's won a shit-ton of awards. They announced from the beginning there would be two expansion packs (essentially, groups of new stories around a main story set in this world) and then that would be it.
I have just finished the second expansion.
And that's it.
I feel surprisingly sad about it, the way I used to feel on the last page of a long book series that I enjoyed (I don't read fiction any more; I'd almost forgotten that feeling).
Near the very end of the game, Geralt sits around a campfire drinking with one of his buds (he drinks a lot, which is fun) and shooting the shit about the future and he takes a big sip and says, "I think I deserve a rest, don't you?" And then the sumbitch looks at me. Up there. That screen cap.
It's supposed to be a bit of light fun, but I admit I kind of. Hm. Now I remember why I don't read fiction any more.

Thou sank'st my longboat!
There's a paper out by Mark Hall of Perth Museum exploring the 36 ancient Northern European burials that have included board games. Two of the game burials were in the Orkneys, which were under Norwegian rule until Tudor times. I tried (and failed) to find the source paper online, not least because the article about it in the Scotsman was behaving oddly in my browser. Fair warning.
Two reasons, they speculate (I remind myself that any discussion of the reasons our pre-literate ancestors did things is always speculation). First, there was such a thing as gamer cred. Prowess at strategy games was regarded as a warrior skill.
Secondly, they wanted to keep the ghost entertained so he wouldn't come back and mess with the living.
Eh. Who knows? The delightful chess pieces in the picture are real, by the way. They're called the Lewis chessmen because they were found on a beach in Lewis, Scotland in 1831. Late 12th, early 13th C., carved from walrus ivory. There were 93 pieces found. It's well worth following the link to read more and see them up close.
And with that, I'm off to play the vidya!

Sad weasel
I don't mean to name-drop, but our new Home Secretary is the MP for nearby Hastings and Rye and, somewhere out there, there's a picture of me standing next to her.
She's a squishy, warmenist cow. *spit*
To celebrate my awesome new video card, I bought the last expansion to the Witcher 3, Blood and Wine. I haven't played that game since February. Is it sad that I was really pleased and happy to see Geralt again?
Yes, that is definitely sad.

What a time to be alive!
Calooh! Callay! Just Cause 3 was released today!
The (wafer thin) plot to the Just Cause games goes like this: you're CIA agent Rico Rodriguez. You are dropped on a tropical island ruled by a tinpot dictator. You will best serve the cause of Great Justice by fucking up as much shit as humanly possible. You have a powerful wrist-mounted grappling device (like unto Spidey's web spinners), a flying suit, a parachute and the ability to hijack any vehicle on the island, including jets and helicopters.
The only change from game to game: it gets bigger and prettier. This one is on an island chain of over a thousand square kilometers, with downright cinematic go-booms, flying sequences and — I shit you not — car chases through fields of sunflowers and lavender. Watch the trailer!
You know, you guys, computer games are the one area of popular culture where our team has prevailed. Big time. Rough justice, x-treme individualism, and lots and lots of lovely boom sticks and explosions. No kid who grows up playing this stuff will ever vote for gun control.

Everybody do the Glitch!
What's a big game without a big glitch? I'm coming to the end of Witcher 3, sadly. Here we see Geralt of Rivia levitating three feet in the air with his legs tucked under him. He has just fought off a whole company of witch hunters, all of whom were also levitating three feet in the air with their legs tucked under them. nee-walked their way through the whole damn thing. It was like playing Marco Polo without the water.
Dude in the back there is dead and just hanging around in midair for no reason.
Known bug. It got better.
My favorite is still the Skyrim bug that made all the chickens in Whiterun repeatedly leap fifty feet in the air and then drift earthwards slowly. I finally worked out that the variable for #chickenheight somehow got crossed with the variable for the height of a stone loosed from a catapult just off screen.
And no, I'm not playing Fallout 4 like all the cool kids. My machine is under spec'ed.

I think to anyone with a brain, it's obvious that it wasn't about WHAT she did, but merely the fact that after years of running her big fat mouth about not being on CCAP, there she is – on CCAP! (Wisconsin Court Access).
Now Mary thinks her response is so darned clever! She got a hold of parts of my deposition so "she be all it" now!
That is a perfect example of first, not knowing the person you're speaking of and second, not having been a witness to something you'd like to profess to being some kind of whacked "expert" on, even though it's none of your business. Everyone at the table laughed – was a great tension breaker, as I was laughing as I said it. You see, taking things you know very little about and spinning them way out of context is not the brightest thing to do – but then, it's quite obvious by this point that we're dealing with a pretty dim bulb when it comes to Mary Struck – er Medusa. 😉
The dim bulb goes dimmer…
I just noticed; that was the sixth "Everybody is Jeni" on July 17th, 2009. But not the last. Busy day for the busy body.
A Challenge for the Busy Body
Oh sure, an anonymous "Mole" – who's MO does that really reek of? Plus, the continued need to say this only makes her look more guilty. She does it again.
Now "gossip" tries to make a point that is perfectly valid and worth consideration, but as you can guess, Medusa isn't capable of grasping reality, much less reason.
When all else fails, what else is there??? You guessed it…
Okay, go have fun, Medusa.
Crazylife is back!
And Medusa is back into "let's frame someone" mode.
Out of the blue, literally, Medusa goes back to her "crazylife" blathering – must have scared herself a bit with her antics on that one. She was backed into a corner she couldn't get out of, then couldn't let go of. This stuff is "WAY OLD" – and my ex again? Oy Vay! He wound NEVER leave me death threats – this is just too whacked for reality.
She had just brought it up on the 14th, too:
A proven lying, thieving, conniving, atheist (or agnostic?) psychopath will testify under oath – yea, that's worth a lot. Just sayin'.
(If you aren't familiar, you can read the crazylife saga in Book Bit 030.)
On this fine and busy day full of Medusa-madness, we can't forget to sink really, REALLY low in the filthy mindset that was to begin to define her more and more – and more and more and more …
That is one sick thing to do to another woman. It proves she has no moral compass whatsoever.
But really, who is surprised?

I have used mod_rewrite in .htaccess (on Apache web server) so that dynamic pages are treated as static html.
The mod_rewrite itself is working fine, so where I had 4 parameters on the URL (php scripts), its now a single html file, eg. product-1-2.html.
However, whilst most of my website is indexed by Google, none of the mod_rewrite html pages are indexed - therefore defeating the objective of using it in the first place.
Does anyone face similar issues, or have any tips / things to check?
I assumed that because it works, ie entering the html based URL does run the dynamic php page and display the correct content - that there was nothing more to it.
Any help appreciated.

Decision on Millard and Smich prison sentences to come later this month
A Toronto judge has put off a decision on sentencing for two convicted killers until February 26th.
Judge Michael Code must decide if Dellen Millard and Mark Smich will serve two life sentences back to back or together, after they were sentenced to life in prison for the killings of Tim Bosma and Laura Babcock.
Millard's lawyer attempting, during yesterday's hearing, to convince the judge his client can be rehabilitated.
Several letters in support of Millard were submitted describing him as "loyal, patient, generous and protective."
Judge Code saying while that may be true there is another side to him that is extremely dangerous.
Mark Smich's lawyer telling the court his client has kicked his drug habit, is taking courses, and working inside prison.
If the judge decides to give Millard consecutive sentences he would not be eligible for parole until the age of 77.

Amazon censors its own sales ranks, filtering out material that it considers might offend. This is, in itself, not unreasonable. What's alarming is that the criteria for exclusion seem very strange. Surely some easily implemented opt-out setting would make more sense.
Excluded are authors such as Annie Proulx (for Brokeback Mountain), Radclyffe Hall (The well of Loneliness), Jeanette Winterson (Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit), and several books by Edmund White. In addition, a biography of Harvey Milk, Sarah Waters's Tipping the Velvet, and E. M. Forster's Maurice are all excluded.
Seeing a pattern yet? Apparently, Amazon feels that any treatment of anything homosexual/lesbian/gay/queer, however non-explicit and including texts specifically aimed at young adult readers, is likely to offend and should be excluded as "adult" material. (What the hell does "adult" actually mean in this context anyway?)
That's just plain wrong.
See here, here and here for more information.

This will be a short one. I experienced a small power cut or load shedding in Grenoble. That was not
exactly a load shedding because the power was back in five minutes. Probably some minor technical fault. Anyway but something stuck me very hard. If the power goes even for one minute here in France everything stops. The ATM, the traffic signals, the security locks in the building even the smallest gadget one can think of. There is no back up even for systems like ATMs. or security locks. At least back home in India everything has back up. From top to bottom we are so vulnerable to faults that we have back up of everything, probably that keeps us going.

Charles Read Academy students visit Cambridge University for science festival
Students from Charles Read Academy, Corby Glen, were invited to attend a prestigious event at Peterhouse College, Cambridge University, as part of the Cambridge Science Festival this month.
Twelve Year 8 and 9 students got involved in hands-on experiments in the University's Department of Chemistry. This included creating their own 'goo', mixing their own perfumes and making ice cream with liquid nitrogen. They were also invited to the Guildhall to look at a prototype space probe, called 'Bruno,' which is due to be sent on an expedition to Mars to search for signs of life.
Rachel Ellis, Year 8 student, said: "I loved the Science Festival so much it has really inspired me to think about science as a career. I absolutely loved chatting to the students at Peterhouse College and I am now going to concentrate on working hard in science and hopefully one day I'll be graduating from Cambridge University too."

One guide book says that Padua is slow to charm and that's right! After an uninspiring walk from the train station, we took a room in a old, slightly faded, but much loved hotel, and we began to fall in love with Padua ourselves.

One Way We Give Back
November 2018
Our drivetrain specialist, Bob Lapane, had forty years of experience before joining our workshop in 2009. Over this past decade with us, he has taken on everything out of the ordinary having to do with transmissions, differentials and unique engine challenges.
Recently, Bob spent two days on the campus of McPherson College offering a hands-on group training session to current students. The focus was on rebuilding the differential of a 1953 Mercedes-Benz 300S, a car we assisted the school in acquiring as a future Pebble Beach Concours project. He also shared his vast store of knowledge with an overview on gears, bearings, and lubricants during two classroom sessions.
This is our second opportunity to pass forward some of our staff's specialized knowledge. Upholsterer Richard Barnes, named one of the "20 Top Restorers" in the October 2017 issue of Sports Car Market, gave an invaluable 2-day upholstery workshop at the school last fall, covering both pre-war and post-war materials, construction and restoration procedures. The McPherson College Automotive Restoration Bachelor's degree program covers the travel expenses, and we supply the paid staff. A rewarding experience for all involved.

Success at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours
August 2018
Two clients, three company members, and four cars - all participants in the Tour, and winners at this year's Concours d'Elegance.
Postwar Custom Citroën was one of the special classes, a marque we do not service. Then a long-term client asked us to support his endeavor to get three of his cars onto the field for this special event. It seems as though our efforts were appreciated, as all three of the Citroëns drove up onto the ramp for an award.
The lovely red 1957 Ferrari 250 GT Pinin Farina Cabriolet Series 1 was very well received when first debuted at the 2018 Cavallino Classic. On the field in Monterey, it was judged to be First in Class, amidst a very competitive group of Ferrari Grand Touring cars. The happy car owner is a returning entrant at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Eegance and, after receiving this award, was heard to say "...this never gets old!".
One of the "5 Top Performers at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance" per the Robb Report, they exclaimed:
"There were several gorgeous examples of Ferrari's iconic 250 GT at the 2018 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, but this car was stunning enough to win its class in the Ferrari Grand Touring category. The 250 GT Cabriolet, bodied by Pinin Farina, was Ferrari's first convertible, with only about 30 "Series 1" models produced between 1957 and the end of 1962. They feature tubular steel frames and are powered by Ferrari's 3-liter V-12. The example honored was first owned by wealthy playboy and amateur racer Porfirio Rubirosa, who was also the fifth ex-husband of Woolworth heiress Barbara Hutton."

Last weekend was gorgeous early spring weather here in the southern UK but less than a thousand miles further north, Donald was complaining about snow!
And the first Spring Insects started to appear.
Eristalis tenax feeding from a crocus flower. A common spring hoverfly.
I was moving the pot to a better camera angle when this fly landed. But as soon as I got the camera ready it became somewhat 'camera shy'. But I managed a couple of quick snaps.
And, hopefully, I still have all summer to get some better photos of rarer creatures.

SAN DIEGO -- In patients with gout and preexisting mild to moderate renal impairment, febuxostat (Uloric) is more effective and as safe as allopurinol, the gold standard gout treatment, researchers found.
In these patients, two doses of febuxostat -- 40 and 80 mg -- were both more effective at lowering serum urate to less than 6 mg/dL than allopurinol through six months of treatment, Andrew Whelton, MD, of Johns Hopkins, reported at the American Society of Nephrology meeting here.
Rates of adverse events were similar in all three groups, regardless of renal function.
Although the 80-mg dose of febuxostat was more effective than allopurinol in the overall patient population, including those with normal renal function, Whelton said it still would probably not become the primary gout treatment.
"Allopurinol still remains the gold standard to use generally," he said. "But in those with preexisting renal impairment, [febuxostat] is very useful, it is highly effective, and it is as safe as allopurinol."
In patients with renal impairment, febuxostat has an advantage because it is processed primarily by the liver, and not the kidneys, as allopurinol is, Whelton said. Allopurinol is used in these patients but at a lower dose than usual in those with moderate impairment (200 versus 300 mg).
His study findings show that the dose of febuxostat does not need to be adjusted on the basis of renal function, he said.
Febuxostat was approved by the FDA in February for the chronic management of gout. (See FDA Okays New Treatment for Gout-Related Hyperuricemia)
The Phase III CONFIRMS trial, which showed that the 80-mg dose was superior to both the 40-mg dose of febuxostat and allopurinol for lowering serum urate to less than 6 mg/dL (67% versus 45% and 42%, P<0.001 for both), provided some of the evidence used for approval.
Whelton and his colleagues wanted to analyze the findings stratified by renal function, because impairment is common in patients with gout.
At baseline, the mean serum urate level in the 2,269 patients included in the trial was 9.6 mg/dL.
About two-thirds (65%) had mild or moderate renal impairment.
As in the overall analysis, in the subgroups of patients with normal renal function, mild impairment, or moderate impairment, the 80-mg dose of febuxostat was superior to both the 40-mg dose and allopurinol, and there was no significant difference between the low dose of febuxostat and allopurinol.
When those with mild and moderate renal impairment were analyzed as a single group, however, both the high dose (72%, P<0.001) and the low dose (50%, P=0.021) of febuxostat were superior to allopurinol (42%) in terms of the number of patients who achieved the target serum urate level.
Adverse event rates were similar across treatment groups and across levels of renal function. The most frequent were upper respiratory tract infections, liver function test abnormalities, and diarrhea.
There were five deaths, one in each febuxostat group and three in the allopurinol group.
The study was supported by Takeda Global Research & Development Center.
Whelton reported serving as a consultant to Takeda Global Research & Development Center.

What Are The Ballpark Costs To Extend The Lease?
I recently had a leasehold enquiry from a property investor looking at lease extension possibilities.
He told me:
I have come across a property in Reading – 26 Topnotch Court which is up for sale at £130K through an estate agent who makes it as difficult as possible to get in touch and talk to the owner. (Not just this property but in general.)
So far I know it has 65 years to run. The freeholder is Topnotch Developments Ltd. The service charge now is £90 per month and the ground rent is £70 per year.
I have been trying to get the term and dates of the lease, the original ground rent, review dates etc but I am being met by a stone wall. The estate agent claims that the owner is refusing to get this as Topnotch want to charge £1000 for this info.
I suspect if this had an extension this property would be worth about £150K.
My preliminary questions are 1) is it worth pursuing, 2) can you tell from this the ballpark costs to extend the lease? 3) is it worth paying money to Topnotch to find more? 4) What do you think?
My reply was as follows:
1) is it worth pursuing? I don't know, that depends on whether this property fits into your investment strategy.
2) can you tell from this the ballpark costs to extend the lease? I could have an educated guess – but not all the facts are confirmed.
3) is it worth paying money to Topnotch to find more? I wouldn't pay £1,000 to find out the lease details and have them clarify their view of the lease extension price. I would:
- Download the leasehold title from HM Land Registry for £3 to clarify the lease term and date, and the original ground rent. I suspect it will say £35pa … and if it is a 99 year lease, then the original ground rent will have doubled after 33 years to £70pa … and will double again after another 33 years to £140pa.
- I would then enter the information here : http://www.lease-advice.org/calculator/ to get an initial ballpark figure for the extension premium
- And here too : http://www.lease-clinic.co.uk/calculator/start and then I'd compare the two
- I'd then research on Zoopla, or wherever, to see the sold prices within Topnotch Court – looking for the price of unextended flats … and extended flats (to check your £20k margin)
What do you think? Once you've gone through that process, I think you'll find the extension premium is likely to be £10k to £12k (for the full 90 years and peppercorn ground rent), to which you need to add the landlord's legal and valuation costs (£1,500 to £3,000) and your own legal and valuation costs (similar). So you might be looking at a project cost of £148k at the top end, before any other costs such as repairs/refurbishment.
But it all depends what your strategy is – and what you're intending to do with the flat.
Think of a lease extension as "cream on the cake". You need to ensure the cake tastes good first; i.e. there needs to be a good reason for buying the flat in the first place – and then use a lease extension to overcome the mortgage barrier, etc.
I hope that helps.
Best wishes.

Download the leasehold title from HM Land Registry for £3 to clarify the lease term and date, and the original ground rent.
No. You cannot download the lease for £3. All you can download for £3 from HM Land Registry is a document that states the registered title, owner of the land, lender, registered charge and purchase price of the property. This document will have zero information on Ground Rent and Service Charge.
I tried to download the corresponding leasehold document from HM Land Registry with no avail. I would love to know how to do it.

If you like it, maybe I will post more.I sit down,
Closing my eyes,
Thinking deeply.
As my concentration develops,
My mind grows bright;
It bursts into flames.
The light agitates a thousand insects.
They fly towards it,
Buzzing around.
But my concentration remains firm.
They fall to the ground.
Now they are snakes.
The thousand snakes stand upright,
Ready to strike me.
I know all their names:
Hatred, anger, anxiety, fear,
Doubt, despair, deceit,
Greed, lust, and laziness.
All of their names are
Not worth repeating.
I maintain a good focus,
Being limitlessly patient,
Extending forgiveness,
Both inwards and outwards,
Seeing through it all,
While being unopposing.
I draw my sword,
And strike down the thousand snakes,
With a single blow.
Oh, it was a pleasant dream!

Re: Some poetry
When I try to be funny,
Nobody gets it.
When I try to sound clever,
I look like an idiot.
When I look for a woman,
They find me disgusting.
When I look outside for a Buddha,
I see only monsters.
On other occasions:
I am being quite serious
And they find me hilarious.
I speak simply yet truthfully,
And they find it ingenious,
I have no interest in women,
And thus they adore me.
When I give up looking for happiness,
I have already found it.
I write poetry.
In my mind it's wondrous,
Yet when it comes out on paper,
It is garbage.

Re: Some poetry
I receive an invitation to hell.
Beautiful calligraphy,
With gold lettering.
I graciously accept,
Knowing the consequences.
In order to study it,
Like army reconnaissance.
You are just a fool,
Merely my tool,
Failing in school,
Wrapped 'round my finger,
Like string 'round a spool!
Oh, I can see the wholesome,
Before the unwholesome,
Yet cannot always
Allow the wholesome to arise.
It would be nice
if the unwholesome never came to visit
Or if I could find a holy place
Where the unwholesome was disassociated.
Perhaps I must simply be
A homeless wanderer one day,
Wandering around,
Rambling madly!
Surrounded by nature,
With nothing, absolutely nothing,
Perhaps I could be free;
It's a romantic ignorance.
"Hello! Wisdom for food!"
"Buy me a sandwich and I'll tell you something clever."
Get away from me, creep!
It wouldn't work.
And yet if I stood by the side of the road,
With lies about having children,
Some kind of disease,
Being a military veteran,
The dumb liberals and religious folk would eat it up
Like cake.
Like cake!

Re: Some poetry
I look at the past,
like a man who remembers
his past life as a dog.
I look at the future,
like a child,
At the top of a rollercoaster.
I don't look at the present.
If I did, I wouldn't feel this way.
Instead, I drift along.
Like leaves in autumn wind,
Destined for a crisp brown death,
In the cold winter that follows.

Re: Some poetry
When I'm feelin' good,
The sun shines bright,
When I'm feelin' down,
The skies are gray and blue,
And the rains come pourin' through.
I plant good seeds,
But can't enjoy the fruit.
Like shunning the sound of music,
While playin' the flute.
It's hard to not be happy,
With well-deserved delight,
For now, I smile like an idiot,
And dance like a monkey tonight.

Re: Some poetry
As I play the guitar,
Reflecting on noble truths,
Each musical note is a moment;
Some of happiness,
Others of suffering.
Each note is a smile,
Or a tear;
A nice warm home,
Or a crumbling shanty;
Blissful, warm colors,
Rising like a steamy geyser,
Projecting rainbows across the turqoise sky,
Or a choking, dark grey cloud,
With black soot and death,
Which follows an erupting volcano,
Like an endless shadow.
In western music theory,
The Major follows the Minor,
The Minor follows the Major,
Major and Minor are the same,
Only differing in arrangement.
Life is like this:
Happiness follows sorrow,
Sorrow follows happiness,
Both are simply points of view,
States of mind,
Differing only in how the mind
perceives the sound;
Where it begins and ends differs,
But the moments are the same.
I wish I didn't have to play this music,
But could still hear it in unagitated silence;
Like dying, with the ground
pulled out from under your feet.
Falling and falling,
Spinning, twirling, confusedly,
To find myself reborn
in a Pure Land of Buddhas,
Of smiles and trees.
How selfish.

Re: Some poetry
This isn't poetry, but just as I was about to eat lunch, I had an idea for a nice photo. The other day, it was a sunny day in autumn (very rare weather) and the red, yellow, and green leaves of a nearby forest were glowing in the sunlight. I wanted to take a picture, but I came home and forgot to go back. By the time I remembered, it was sunset, so I missed the opportunity.

Re: Some poetry
Actually it's not very Asian. Some kind of western stir-fry with enough salt to kill a fat man. I drank the water first and just a little mountain dew when the water was done. Originally I planned on just drinking water, but when I arranged a few objects around the plate for a photo, the mountain dew seemed an appropriate way to balance the fis sauce... and I ended up drinking it just because it was within arms' length. I could've gotten a few things out of the fridge, really.Urgyen Chodron wrote:mountain dew with asian food? yuck. of course i went into a chinese restaurant in san francisco's china town and a friend tried to order a cola. the waitess made some type of comment in chinese and everyone laughed. no cola.

Re: Some poetry
To clarify, this is just a poem. I'm not actually a psychopath. I'm just capable of channeling one (metaphorically speaking).
The beginning is rather nasty, but if you read the rest, it gets better.
The beginning is rather nasty, but if you read the rest, it gets better.
Slash and burn
Burn, burn every bridge
that you come across!
Burn the air that you breathe,
And the blood that boils!
Tear the raw flesh
From the skeleton
Ingesting the fresh meat
Drooling over its succulence.
Swallow the juicy connective tissue,
Choking as it slithers down,
Into acid mixed with bile and pus,
Oozing through a black snake,
Into an endless dark void.
Slash and burn
Burn, burn every bridge
that you come across!
Burn the air that you breathe,
And the blood-filled boils!
Carefully calculated
Rape and murder for lust,
For sport and curiosity,
and greatest of all,
for no particular reason!
All beings are less than insects,
Less than the organelles of a bacterium,
Mere objects, for my own pleasure,
My own sake; mine,
Hahahaha, mine,
preciously mine.
Let them all be gathered into a single heap,
A single pile of mutilated, mangled bodies,
Drowning the cosmos,
In forever-rising rivers of blood and semen;
This world, my world.
All mine and mine alone.
As I take my second bite,
I feel dissatisfied.
I cry, because I am all alone,
Alone in my ultimate loneliness,
My hunger exceeds the pretas.
Beings hate and fear me,
Or pretend I do not exist.
When I am gone,
The wise give me not a single thought,
Like a being who rejects another
In matters of love.
But whenever I arrive,
The wise publicly insult and shame me,
Like cruel parents,
Who tease their children in public,
Sharing their every intimate detail,
That the child would prefer be unspoken.
May all beings not fear this dark mind,
Or feel pity, or self-righteousness,
Or doubt and despair.
May Guan Yin's thousand hands,
Collect the infinite tears of the world,
And turn them into a warm heavenly rain,
Raining down happiness upon the world;
A downpour infused with sunlight,
Projecting rainbows across every sky,
In every realm, in every mind,
Until all the hells are empty,
The hells we create for ourselves.

Re: Some poetry
It is like fireworks!
Like pop rocks and popcorn,
A thousand cap guns firing,
in harmonious discord.
Like bubbles at the bottom
of a boiling pot,
or in a can of soda,
The sound of music,
Traffic and crowded carnivals.
Like stormy rain drops,
Plucking the surface of a pond;
Lightning bolts,
Across ten hectares squared,
In an accelerated time-frame.
Crackling specks of flaming debris,
Whizzing through the air,
Like fireflies and fairies,
Above a smoky campfire.

Re: Some poetry
A juicy worm, several inches thick,
Alongside various fluidous flesh bags,
Infected with viruses and bacteria,
Some pulsating, some not,
Wrapped in gorilla skin,
Which also holds a chalky stone,
Enclosing a pink-white sponge,
Connected to an electric eel lined with stones,
And yellow-pink-white coral reefs,
Floating in a red ocean.
A nose like a pig snout,
Mane like a bearded lion,
Teeth like a rabbit bred with a dog,
Making all kinds of odd noises.
"What are these disgusting things?"
"They are called hyoomans."
"Awful! I would rather be a dolphin!"

Re: Some poetry
The cosmos is like a lotus flower,
With an infinite number of petals,
Which grow and wilt,
Like a geyser which starts and stops.
It spins around in circles,
At immeasurable speed,
And each petal rises and falls,
Look a little closer:
And there is no flower!
Only infinite specks of dust.
Dust within dust:
Galaxies within universes,
Which swirls in many directions,
And in so many colors.
Look a little closer:
There are beings!
Gods, demons, and humans,
Animals, ghosts, and monsters,
With many different forms and minds,
Some with bodies but no minds,
Some with minds but no bodies,
Many with both,
And some even with neither!
And look a little closer:
Within each being's mind,
One sees the whole lotus-flower,
Always present to every mind,
But rarely used or expressed;
Some call this Indra's jewel,
But in truth it belongs to no-one.
The Buddha sits atop this flower,
Smiling down on us all.

Re: Some poetry
This story popped into my head at school today. I hope you like it.
Once, a deva in one of the upper heavens had a spontaneous realization of the nature of suffering, aspiring to be a bodhisattva. In that moment, he flew directly over to Mara and gave him the middle finger.
When the bodhisattva was reborn a human, Mara sent a small army, thinking the bodhisattva's mind would be easily dispatched. In some sense it was easily dispatched, but each time the bodhisattva realized his errors, and looked upwards, giving Mara the finger.
So, Mara sent a larger army, and eventually, the bodhisattva was overwhelmed and was reborn a hungry ghost. As a hungry ghost, the bodhisattva raised his middle finger as he became mentally and physically numb, falling into a stupor, and was reborn a monkey.
As a monkey, the bodhisattva raised both his middle fingers and danced all around happily. Mara inspired the monkey to hunt weaker animals for sport and in turn, inspired other animals to hunt the monkey for sport. With his last breath, the monkey raised his middle finger, being reborn in the cold hell.
As the bodhisattva sank into the cold blue depths, he held his middle finger high. But Mara continued to push him downwards, into the hot hell. As the bodhisattva sank into pools of lava, he continued to hold his middle finger high. With his head beneath the lava, his arm remained upwards, held high.
He reached the lowest realm, the Avici hell, still keeping his middle finger held up. Mara continued to push him, but there were no other realms in which to enter. So, after entering a stasis for a long time, he attained full buddhahood right there. His body exploded in a green light and, sitting at the very floor of Acivi, there appeared a fist, with the middle finger and thumb extended. The middle finger grew and grew, until it reached the highest heavens, and it became a magical beanstalk that anyone with a pure mind could grab onto, to climb to the higher realms. On his four other digits, from the thumb to the pinkie, were four inscriptions:
On the the thumb, "What lies beyond is the greatest joy"
On the index finger, "This joy is release"
On the ring finger, "This release is pure"
And the pinky, "This joyous release through purity is attained through practicing non-violence, both inwardly and outwardly."
Many hell-beings gathered on the palm of that hand and escaped. In the upper heavens, devas laughed incessantly, saying, "This is an insult Mara cannot recover from!"

Re: Some poetry
More prose:
"Bang!" the man fires his gun, to start the race. I am born an infant.
I stand there at the starting line, for many years, bewildered, forgetting that I'm even in the race.
Somewhere around my mid-20s, I remember what I am doing.
"Oh! I'm in the race!" and start running to the finish line (towards Nirvana).
Mara stands on the side-lines, "Stop! Hey! Hey! Look over here! I have a cheeseburger!"
"Stop, look over here!" he holds up a television and an Xbox 360, with a library of games.
"Stop, stop, look over here!" there are several beautiful women and pornography. I keep running.
Although I admit, sometimes I do stop for Mara: for the women, and to discuss dharma, and make artwork. It's hard to get back into the race, but I always do and always will.
I keep running, running, running. And in the process, I lose myself, in a bad way. I run towards Nirvana and my spirit outpaces my body, and my body gets left behind. And I get bewildered again.
So, I have to pay attention, look back, "Oh, I'm too far ahead! My body is still back there!" and I have to re-trace my steps.
The race continues. I run with stubble on my face, because due to a lack of mindfulness, I wasn't able to shave for the past few days, which saves time but also hurts me, because if I am unshaven, then the judges of the race will deduct points from my final score.
Along with Mara, there are many people standing out in the crowd. But they aren't aware of the race anymore than an infant is aware of global geoeconomic politics!
Oddly, instead of cheering those who run, those on the side-lines cheer on those who actually are just standing still by the starting line: wearing robes, holding sutras, and discussing dharma with the evil one.

Re: Some poetry
Nibbana has been called:
"A flame that is extinguished,"
But at best, this is a half-truth,
At worst, a vicious falsehood!
Nirvana is an eternal flame,
An eternal light,
Which can never be consumed;
It is inexhaustible,
Burning without fuel,
And giving off no smoke,
So it illuminates even more!
If all the fireworks of the world,
Were set up in one area,
And the fireworks' mortars were stuffed,
With all the world's gemstones,
And on the ground below,
Were all the world's laser lights,
Projecting across a black fog,
On a beautiful starry night,
And this glorious contraption
Were set off all at once:
It would pale in comparison,
To the light of Nirvana!
If a million "Big Bangs" occurred all at once,
And in each of these universes,
Was all the light of every star that might possibly exist,
Focused within a dot the size of a grain of rice,
And the light of these million worlds,
Were reflected to a spot the size of an atom:
It would pale in comparison,
To the glory of Nibbana!

Re: Some poetry
Many others suffer from unhappiness;
I suffer because of joy.
Many others suffer from stupidity,
I suffer because of wisdom.
Many others suffer because of the physical;
I suffer because of the mental.
Many others are afraid of hell,
I am more afraid of heaven.
Many others seek morality,
I seek the Middle Way.
Bad karma is like a ball-and-chain,
But good karma is like a snare.
Bad karma weighs you down like a brick,
But with good karma you fly away,
Stupid but happy.

Re: Some poetry
I stand there, raking autumn leaves.
I should've raked them already,
But I thought,
"Why rake the leaves today,
When more will fall tomorrow?"
So I waited.
As I raked the leaves,
I reflected,
"These are not mine,
Nor are they separate,
They are impermanent,
And dissatisfactory;
they are simply leaves,
And nothing more."
As I worked,
I felt tightness in my abdomen.
The center of gravity,
Is strengthened by hard work;
Nothing magical about it.
My body ached,
So I twisted my hips,
Throwing punches and kicks,
Until I felt better,
Got the juices flowing.
I felt energy well up inside,
Like my soul could leap,
A thousand miles above the body.
I felt inclined to stop working,
And do martial arts in the forest,
But I saw through this delusion,
And kept working.
I see the Tao,
Not because of profound mystical insight,
Or the highest most supreme enlightenment,
But because I merely see a single way,
And no other way that leads to good places.
I humbly see not The Way,
Just a way and no other way,
A way! A way! A way!
Away! Away! Away!
Because all other roads lead to suffering.
So, I stopped raking leaves,
Only partially finished,
To come here and write this poem:
Because I am an idiot
Who is easily distracted by dreams,
And delighted by sharing
My dream-like mind with others.

Booking Great Independent Artists in All Music Genres
The Chip Austin Agency is a relatively new entity, started after I spent a couple of years going to writers' nights at various clubs around Nashville, making friends with the musicians and wondering why so many great singer/songwriters were not being heard outside of the city limits of Nashville. We are very proud to represent some well-established artists and several of the best emerging artists who are available to tour.

Through high school, college and a few years after graduation, Chip worked at WKOP, a reporting Country music station in Binghamton, NY, becoming the morning drive DJ, Program and Music Director before moving on to KLUC, a Top 40 station in Las Vegas, NV.
Chip had a brief fling with songwriting in Nashville, getting one cut ("Won't You Stay With Me", recorded by Dales Youngs and Eddie Weidow, produced by Roy Drusky and Jim Pearce, Round Robin Records) in 1979.
In the early Æ80s, Chip discovered he had an aptitude for and love of computer programming. He spent the next 25 years designing and writing custom accounting programs, a specialization that ultimately brought him to Nashville.
The economy of 2009 created an opportunity for Chip to combine his programming skills, love of music and friendship with several Nashville musicians to create an ōartist performance schedulingö business, building large databases of performance venues and routing programs.

Dr. William Bernstein, a plastic surgeon from Kenosha, Wisconsin, is now booked nearly 8 months in advance. His specialty is removing a man's ears, keeping ear hair intact, and surgically implanting them on the top of the head. While the casual observer may find this procedure absurd, 100% of the patients are ecstatic with the results.
Ear Hair – Bald Man's Best Friend
It's common knowledge that when men reach middle age, hair starts growing out of their ears. Up until 2015, ear hair was a nuisance, a social stigma, and even the cause of many failed marriages. Today, ear hair has replaced the "dog" as a bald man's best friend.
The only real drawback to the ear removal surgery is that you lose all sense of hearing. "To be honest, I've nearly forgotten that I can't hear anymore. My wife is incredibly happy now, and our sex life is beyond intense" beamed Kaminski, "I no longer need to sneak my Viagra pills under the pillow, and my circulation has improved due to all the arm movements of sign language. I couldn't be happier". (see picture)Copyright secured by Digiprove © 2015

World Peace Prayer Day with Chief Arvol Looking Horse
There was magic on this day of World Peace Prayer Day organized by Native Americans high up on Howard Prairie Lake. As Chief Arvol Looking Horse spoke of our planetary need for peace and the symbolic appearance of white animals on earth that is happening now, a white bird flew overhead. As we gathered in a circle around a huge medicine wheel dedicated to all faiths and all prayers becoming one prayer for peace, a Bald Eagle and Ospry repeatedly flew in a circle directly above our circle for over an hour. Heart energy warmth could be felt as though we were in an ancient temple filled with thousands of years of sacred ceremony. How fortunate to be present. How grateful I am. And deeply contemplative about how to live, what to do and take even more steps for inner and outer peace on this magnificent planet that IS our home. Arvol said Mother Earth is NOT a resource. She IS a SOURCE.

Fair Courts E-lert: Obama Names SCOTUS Nominee; PA Supreme Court Justice Resigns
President Obama Nominates Merrick Garland to Supreme Court
On Wednesday, President Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland to fill the U.S. Supreme Court vacancy left by Antonin Scalia, write Michael D. Shear, Julie Hirschfeld Davis, and Gardiner Harris for the New York Times. Obama described Garland as "one of America's sharpest legal minds [and] someone who brings to his work a spirit of decency, modesty, integrity, even-handedness, and excellence." He also implored Senate Republicans to hold a "fair hearing and then an up-or-down vote," saying: "If you don't, then it will not only be an abdication of the Senate's constitutional duty, it will indicate a process for nominating and confirming judges that is beyond repair." However, the New York Times says Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) "called Judge Garland personally to say he would not be receiving him in his Capitol office, nor taking any action on his nomination." In a recent piece for the Huffington Post, Brennan Center Fellow Dorothy Samuels and Senior Counsel Alicia Bannon look back at America's founding documents and conclude Alexander Hamilton and other framers would agree a hearing should be held.
Justice Eakin Resigns from PA Supreme Court
On Tuesday, Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice J. Michael Eakin resigned from the bench following his alleged involvement in "a pornographic email scandal," write Angela Couloumbis, Craig R. McCoy, and Mark Fazlollah of Philly.com. Eakin is the second judge and one of "more than a half-dozen public officials" who have lost their jobs in connection to an "exchange of email messages containing pornography and jokes that mocked African Americans, women, gays, lesbians, and others." The writers explain that Eakin "was charged last year with violating judicial ethics rules" and "faced a trial on the charges before the Court of Judicial Discipline this month." Although, according to the authors, "Eakin's decision to step down appeared to be a bid to save his taxpayer-paid pension," his attorney William Costopoulos said his "resignation would not necessarily halt that process or spare the justice's pension." Eakin has apologized for the emails and maintained that "they do not reflect his character and that his judicial opinions over the last two decades were based on thoughtful reasoning and facts, not biases."
Writ of Certiorari Filed in Phillip Morris Case
Plaintiffs in the multi-billion dollar lawsuit against tobacco company Phillip Morris filed a writ of certiorari before the U.S. Supreme Court over Illinois Justice Lloyd Karmeier's failure to recuse himself from the case, writes Jim Dey for The News-Gazette. Karmeier's 2014 retention election saw high levels of spending, both in support and opposition, by groups and parties affiliated with both parties to the lawsuit, which was pending before the Illinois Supreme Court at that time. When the case came before the court in 2015 on appeal, the plaintiffs "asked that Karmeier recuse himself on the ground of bias." Despite the spending, Dey writes "Karmeier refused to withdraw from the case" and joined the November 2015 decision in favor of Phillip Morris. The petition asks "whether it violates the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment for a judge to participate in a case where the judge has made pejorative public statements about a litigant or an attorney, and there exists a reasonable public perception that one of the parties (Philip Morris) funded the judge's election campaign."
NC Retention Election Ruling Appealed to State Supreme Court
Following a lower-court ruling striking down the use of retention elections for the North Carolina Supreme Court, the state's Board of Elections appealed the decision to the Supreme Court itself, writes Frank Taylor for the Carolina Public Press. Taylor reports that multiple observers say the appeal "may raise serious questions about a conflict of interest." Rick Henderson, managing editor of the Carolina Journal, said the appeal, in effect, "let[s] justices make the final decision on the makeup of their own court, potentially thwarting the will of the legislators." Chris Fitzsimmons, director of N.C. Policy Watch, indicated that Justice Robert Edmunds Jr's "situation is the most urgent because he's the only justice whose current term is up in 2016." He also notes that the court's current 4-3 conservative majority means "[w]hat voters decide in 2016 and how they decide it will determine which way the court leans politically."
