Wedding Wednesday - 50 Years for Eli and Florence
Published in the Green Bay Press Gazette (date unknown, but would have been around April 1936)
"Flintville Couple Wed 50 Years
(Special to Press-Gazette)
FLINTVILLE, Wis. - Large wedding cakes were presented to Mr. and Mrse. (sic) Eli Cayemberg at their home here Sunday, where they celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary. The couple who were married in St. Hubert church, Rosiere, April 24, 1886, celebrated the 50th anniversary of the marriage Sunday with a family reunion. (Unk) children and their families were present."
Eli and Florence Cayemberg is the couple that is celebrated annually at the Cayemberg family reunion held in Green Bay, Wisconsin. All the descendants of these two are invited to attend. When I first started genealogy I thought that the reason this couple was celebrated was perhaps because they were the first Cayembergs to arrive in America. This was not the case though. Eli was born in Wisconsin. The son of Philippe and Catherine Cayemberg nee Doneux (so many various surname spellings that I won't even touch on here!) and sibling to Regine, Joseph, Gustav Joseph, Cedonie, and Geferson. They were the couple celebrated at the annual family reunion merely because it was their children that wanted to celebrate them. Silly amateur me reading more into it early on. Ya live, ya learn!
Now having written that, I'm about to get inundated with comments and emails telling me that the names for Philippe and Catherine's children are wrong, or someone was missed, or...or...or...
So let me just head all that off at the pass and say, "Don't." Unless you're willing to share your research (and it's proper research, not guesswork and/or something divined from the most recent communique with the dead), then please just don't. You see the Cayemberg family tree that is celebrated annually is only the descendants of Eli and Florence. Eli's siblings, parents, grandparents, etc are MIA...and those are the people I want to discover. Those are the unknowns and isn't that what we need to do? Go back (and sideways) and figure these things out!
My research certainly needs tweaking. I'm still looking to confirm all of the children of Philippe and Catherine (Eli is already confirmed), but it's a goal. I've had people tell me that these children are wrong, or need to be combined (is Joseph and Gustav Joseph the same person?), but until there is some proof a genealogist has to go with where the available document are pointing. I may find something that will change this part of my family tree. I may find something that confirms it. I may find nothing. But it takes more than just taking someone's "word for it" to amend the research I've begun. Documents please!
Gosh. I get bitchy when I'm tired. Night all!

I am interested in contouring and shading – think it makes a big difference to the face if done well and subtly.
Was anyone else an 80s child like me and remembers how the Hong Kong or Asian actresses in general used to contour their noses?
Extreme. It was extreme.
Anyway I bought this Make Up For Ever sculpting kit to have a play with. There are 4 variations so I got no. 2 which is described as medium neutral brown and cream. Both powders are matte:
I'd be lying is I said that I don't already have tons of highlighting and contouring shades in my collection but I liked the idea of having both colours in one place.
I prefer having a matte powder to contour – I just think it looks more natural but you can use products with some shimmer in them too.
The while powder is a soft cream…its a good shade for my medium toned skin. The brown, although described as neutral I think is a little bit red – I'd prefer a truly cool toned brown like Illamasqua's Mischief Blusher.
So for me, the brown is ever so slightly off. I don't like any red/orange in my browns. The texture of the powder I can't fault – its very soft and creamy, easy to use and quite easy to blend away.
Used a bit of both of the colours:
The first ingredient is Talc. Hmmmmmm. Surely the powder is too expensive for that?
Its a nice product and if you don't have any contouring products/shades its a good place to start BUT its totally unnecessary. You would be better off just looking for a white/cream eyeshadow/blusher/highlighter that suits you and looking round for a contour shade that suits you perfectly.
The contour shade is the tricky one and I don't think the one in this palette fits all.
All shades contain:
Talc, Kaolin, Octyldodecanol, Myristyl Lactate, Nylon-6, Isononyl Isononanoate, Isotridecyl Isononanoate, Chlorphenesin, Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Dimethicone, Tocopheryl Acetate, Propylparaben, [+/- Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Tin Oxide, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Silica, Mica, C1 19140 (Yellow 5 Lake), C1 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), C1 75470 (Carmine), C1 15850 (Red 6, Red 7 Lake), C1 45410 (Red 28 Lake), C177163 (Bismuth Oxychloride), C1 77491 (Iron Oxides), C177491 (Iron Oxides), C177499 (Iron Oxides), C1 77742 (Manganese Violet), C1 77007 (Ultramarines)]

On Wednesday night, the State of Texas executed Edgar Tamayo for the 1994 murder of a Houston police officer. Tamayo's case is special because he is a Mexican citizen, whose nation challenged his execution, just as it challenged US executions of its citizens in the past, most recently in 2008 and 2011.
Since the United States reinstated the death penalty in 1976, states have executed 28 other foreign nationals, often in the face of diplomatic calls for clemency.
Tamayo became the 29th on Wednesday after the Supreme Court refused to stay his execution. If Texas officials have their way, Edgardo Cubas, of Honduras, will become the 30th on May 29, 2014.
In all but one of these cases, according to the Death Penalty Information Center, US authorities failed to inform the arrested foreign nationals that they had the right to seek consular assistance under Article 36 of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations. In 2004, the International Court of Justice found that the United States had violated the Vienna Convention in dozens of cases involving the arrest and prosecution of Mexican citizens.
More than 140 foreign nationals remains on death row around the United States.
Here are the 29 men, where they were born, and the crimes for which they were put to death.

These three simple Avon lipstick landed on my desk the other week – this is the Ultra Colour Rich Mega Impact Lipstick.
These lipstick have a shimmery almost reflective look. They say:
CHROMAPIXEL TECHNOLOGY boosts color by reflecting light and enhancing shine to amplify each shade's true hue.
Chromapixel. Could be the name for my next cat.
Anyway here they are.
Fuchsia Fun:
This is cut out like the new Cle De Peau lipsticks – lovely!
The texture of the Mega Impact lipstick is fairly light, quite soft and shimmer, and is pigmented despite being sheer.
Fuchsia Fun is a lovely bright pink:
Now…I thought these were ALL Mega Impact but infact the next two are just the Ultra Rich Lipsticks – they have less sparkle to them.
Twinkle Pink:
You can tell it has less sparkle but they are still quite glossy and nice to wear. One thing I will say is that they make you lips look hydrated even when they are quite dry!
This is a Ultra Rich Lipstick, but once again its a different shape in the tube! Country Rose looks a bit grannish in the barrel.
Country Rose:
Its actually one of the nicest ones on – it has a juicy red-orange type look to it.
I like these lipsticks, I'm more impressed than I thought I'd be. They are sparkly, a little pigmented and hydrating which is what you need for Summer.
View avon lipsticks here. The mega impact is currently £8 and the ultra rich shades are on sale at the moment for £3.25.
So what do you think of these lipsticks?

I suppose most of us already know something of what this book is about, though its 500 pages are full of instances that were new to me. Otto writes about a three-front war on science: the ideological war, including fundamentalist religion; the identity politics war, meaning that so-called truth is subjective according to one's political identity group; and the industrial war, which sets profitability ahead of scientific fact and thinking. The first of these is irrational; the second, anti-intellectual; the third, corrupt. If you agree, you may not need to read this book. If not, then maybe you should.
There's a lot of pseudo-science ("scientism") out there masquerading as the real thing. This arose in another CMG thread in which a book by Bryan Appleyard titled "Understanding the Present: Science and the Soul of Modern Man" came up. The Wikipedia article on Appleyard ways, "The book explores his views about 'science's corrosive effect on morality,'" which is a right-wing absurdity. Science is a rational inquiry aimed at discovering the truth about the physical natural world; how can such truth "corrode" morality? It's the other way around, rigid morality and unyielding religious dogma corrode or distort or suppress the scientific pursuit of the truth. Wikipedia continues, "One opposing view is that his views are based on a 'tangle of misunderstandings' about the concept of science.'" That view is excerpted from an extensive discussion by Denis Alexander which can be read here:
https://books.google.com/books?id=7bqL_ ... &q&f=false
The discoveries of science are themselves morally neutral, but they can create practical possibilities that raise moral and ethical issues even of life and death. We are now able to prolong the life of a brain-dead patient just about indefinitely, but should we? What moral issues does this raise that humans didn't have to deal with before the age of modern medicine? And who is to pay for it? The discovery of nuclear fission made possible the creation of economical power-generating plants and also the atomic bomb; the decisions to build either had moral aspects that were not weighed seriously at the time but we now take them very seriously indeed.
A scientific discovery can make possible a greater good or a greater evil or both; it's not the science but the humans who exploit it or choose not to that are good or evil. Science can subject us to new temptations which the philosophers and religious prophets of antiquity knew nothing of, besides which they often disagree among themselves. But they have provided us with ways of thinking about moral issues that still apply, if we choose to apply them.

PORTLAND — Federal prosecutors are recommending that a young New Hampshire man be sentenced to nearly 20 years in prison for setting fire to a nuclear-powered submarine docked in Maine, causing an estimated $450 million in damage.
In a sentencing memorandum filed Friday in U.S. District Court, the U.S. attorney's office recommended the top of the sentencing range allowed under an agreement in which Casey James Fury pleaded guilty to setting fire to the USS Miami.
The agreement limits Fury's sentence to roughly 15 to 19 years. Prosecutors are seeking a sentence of 19 years and seven months, the maximum allowed under the agreement between Fury's attorney and prosecutors.
Fury, 25, is scheduled to be sentenced this Friday, March 15, in federal court in Portland.
It took more than 100 firefighters to save the Miami after the May 23 fire spread while the sub was in dry dock at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery.
The fire injured at least five people who responded to the blaze and could easily have been fatal, prosecutors wrote in the court document. The fire also cost the U.S. the use of a "vital national asset" for 18 months beyond the scheduled maintenance period, he said.
"Simply put, the nature and circumstances of the defendant's conduct, and perhaps this factor alone, supports a sentence at the top of the advisory guideline range," the document reads.
Fury's federal public defender, David Beneman, said he planned to file his sentencing recommendation Monday.
Fury pleaded guilty in November to setting the fire inside the sub May 23, as well as a second fire outside on June 16.
Fury told Navy investigators he set the fires because he was feeling anxiety and wanted to go home, according to prosecutors. The second fire, on June 16, was set outside the submarine and was quickly doused with no damage. The Navy plans to repair the Los Angeles-class nuclear submarine, but prosecutors said those efforts have been put on hold because of mandatory federal budget cuts.

A small but resolute band of sequestration-busters showed up on the National Mall Sunday to honor the fallen of World War I despite the official cancellation of the annual event leading up to Memorial Day due to the Congressional budget cuts.
"It's a sign that we remember," said Melinda Tomaino, president of the American Legion auxiliary at the Kenneth H. Nash Post 8 on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.
She was joined by Barbara Rich and Alicia Fansmith, also members of Post 8, in placing two wreaths at the District of Columbia's World War I Memorial, dedicated in 1931 by President Herbert Hoover, that mostly goes unnoticed a short walk from the imposing World War II Memorial.
"Remembrance of our veterans who sacrificed all should not be sequestered," Rich said.
The three women held a brief moment of silence to honor those who served in what the inscription on the D.C. Memorial said was "The Great War For Civilization." Earlier, Rebekah Wilson, an Army Iraq veteran, had placed small U.S. flags along walkways leading to the Memorial just off Independence Ave.
And that was it in the way of ceremony for what had been an annual gathering going back to 1976 to kick off Memorial Day events.
There were no speakers, no representatives from D.C. officialdom. There was no playing of "Taps," no folding chairs for whoever might have attended in remembrance of the 499 District residents who fell in the Great War alongside 116,000 other "doughboys."
The National Park Service withdrew its support for the District event, which usually came to about $1,000, because of the five percent cuts in the NPS' budget of about $2.75 billion that were forced by the impasse between Congress and the Obama administration on deficit reduction, said Mike Litterst, an NPS spokesman.
Sequestration could result in more than $1 trillion in federal spending cuts over the next 10 years to include more than $500 billion for the Defense Department. Those cuts have been felt in the national preparations for Memorial Day.
Several other NPS sites were being closed for Memorial Day, Litterst said. The military was also scaling back its participation in events to honor the more than 1,322,000 who have been killed in the nation's wars since the Revolution.
Other NPS sites that will be closed for Memorial Day included the Brown v. Board of Education National Historic Site in Washiongton, D.C.; the Harry S Truman National Historic Site in Missiouri; the James A. Garfield National Historic Site in Ohio and the Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota.
At the Homestead National Monument of America in Nebraska, hours for the annual Fiddle Festival were being cut back, along with the shuttle bus transportation.
The military was also working under severe funding constraints in its ability to support Memorial Day ceremonies and a range of community events nationwide. The support in the form of troops, color guards, bands, drill teams and fly-bys was previously considered routine.
The hugely popular Air Force Thunderbirds and the Navy's Blue Angels aerial acrobatics teams have also been grounded. The Navy has dropped out of the annual Fleet Week in New York City for Memorial Day weekend to save $7 million.
"It grows every day," said Air Force Col. Phil Waite, the director of Community and Public Outreach at the Pentagon. He said the number of events that the military will be unable to support this year.
Memorial Day "is significant in the life of our nation, especially for the families of the fallen," Waite said. The Defense Department was "considering certain exceptions to the restrictions imposed by sequestration on our outreach programs, but no specific determination has been released yet."
Under the current restrictions, units that are called upon frequently for public events, such as the military bands, have had to cut back on travel.
"If it's anything outside the local area" where the unit is based, "they're not going to be able to do it," Waite said.
In the vacuum, private and non-profit groups have been stepping in to provide support. A fleet of World War II-vintage fighters and bombers from the National Museum of World War II Aviation in Colorado Springs and the Texas Flying Legends Museum of Houston will sub for the Air Force Thunderbirds at the Air Force Academy's graduation ceremony on May 29.
The cancellation of community events by the military and the scaling back of support for Memorial Day was having an impact on the Defense Department's programs for keeping the all-volunteer force in touch with the public.
"The American public is losing here in not being able to see our military, not being able to be inspired by them," Waite said at the Pentagon. "It all points to the fact that sequester is very painful."
The lonely vigil by the three women at the D.C. Memorial only underlined the fact that there is no national memorial for the Great War in which more than two million Americans served. Congressional attempts to establish a World War I memorial on the National Mall have languished as the last survivors have died.
Army Corp. Frank Buckles, an ambulance driver in World War I, died at his home in Charles Town, W.Va., in 2011. He was the last living American veteran of the Great War. Buckles was 110.
Navy Yeoman Charlotte Winters, the last woman survivor of World War I, died in 2007. She was 109, and had been a founding member of the Jacob Jones American Legion post 2 in Washington, D.C.
Before his death, Buckles lobbied Congress for a memorial to his comrades. Before he died, Buckles left his memories of the war with the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress. In the oral history, Buckles recalled marveling at French troops on the eve of battle.
"What I have a vivid memory of is the French soldiers being in a small village and going in to a local wine shop in the evening," Buckles said. "They had very, very little money. But they were having wine and singing the 'Marseillaise' with enthusiasm. And I inquired, 'What is the occasion?' They were going back to the front. Can you imagine that?"

New Catholic Dictionary – Saint Cyprian of Carthage
(Thascius Cæcilius Cyprianus) Martyr, Archbishop of Carthage, born Carthage, 190; died there, 258. Converted to Christianity late in life, he was ordained priest, 247, and consecrated Bishop of Carthage, c.249. During the persecution of Decius, begun 250, Cyprian lived in hiding, directing his flock from his place of refuge, and for this reason he was condemned by his enemies. The question of the reconciliation of lapsed Christians with the Church had given rise to the custom of admitting them to Communion if a martyr requested this favor for them. Cyprian at first opposed the practise, but the sincerity of their contrition caused him to relent; this gave rise to the schism of the deacon Felicissimus; returning to Carthage, 251, Cyprian excommunicated the leaders. He supported Pope Cornelius against the antipope Novatian. Exiled to Curubis, 257, in the persecution of Valerian, he was brought back to Carthage and beheaded. Cyprian's writings are of great importance; following Tertullian, he was the second great Christian Latin writer. His name occurs in the Communicantes in the Canon of the Mass. Feast, Roman Calendar, 16 September.

Police had to break into car to rescue 2-year-old
A Springfield man faces a charge of reckless child endangerment after he left his girlfriend's son in his car while he did Black Friday shopping, police said.
Anthony Perry, 34, left the 2-year-old while he went into the K-Mart at the Liberty Street Plaza to buy a 51-inch television, police said.
After K-Mart staff members were unsuccessful in trying to contact the child's caretaker over the store intercom, police were called, WWLP-TV reported.
SLIDESHOW: Photos from the scene
Police were forced to break into the Nissan Venza about 1:20 a.m. Friday, Sgt. Richard R. LaBelle said.
Perry, who denied the incident happened, was not arrested and has yet to be formally charged, LaBelle said.

About GearMentation
There's an app for boycotting Israel (however unjustified), and there's an app for exposing corrupt politicians. Is there an app for boycotting products which work with the copyright monopoly?

He better put it out as a torrent quick!
It's very difficult to upload any image to Wikipedia, you have to jump through all sorts of copyright hoops. One of the greatest barriers to writing Wikipedia articles is that you can't get the source material, it's either not on the internet due to copyright, or it's behind a pay barrier, especially with scientific texts. It's hard. And the cost in time and energy of going to a library, then trying to translate from those paper sources to online is pretty high (impossible for many especially outside the US). It's volunteer work after all, how much time and energy do you have?

Next Episode of Fear Factor is
not planed. TV Show was canceled.
We have taken the groundbreaking Fear Factor franchise that many fans remember fondly and have ramped it up to make it even more challenging and competitive than ever before", said Telegdy. "Once again, the contestants will have to face their ultimate fears to prevail -- and the tension and drama of that process will make for some riveting television". Fear Factor will step into its new day and time one week after the conclusion of "The Sing-Off" on December 5. Fear Factor returns to NBC with all-new episodes featuring new stunts that will thrill viewers while testing the stamina and nerves of the contestants. Advancements in technology have allowed the producers to develop stunts that are more fantastic than ever before - such as the "Towering Inferno" and the "Helicopter TNT Crash".
Looks like something went completely wrong!

Novi Sad: Nest of the Serbian nation
Anne Kindersley lived in Belgrade, the wife of a British diplomat between 1964 and 1967. She travelled extensively and ten years later wrote a book about her experiences in Serbia and Kosovo. It is part history and part reportage about life in Serbia at the time. Here she writes about Novi Sad in the eighteenth century.
Novi Sad had already become a "royal free borough" in 1747, so that it had its own Law Court presided over by its own citizens and the right to send two Senators to the Hungarian diet. By the early 19th century it had a Grammar School, where the celebrated Slavist, Safarik, a Slovak, taught, wearing a green coat, white cashmere trousers and a stovepipe hat. He spent his spare time looking at the private libraries of Novi Sad:
[T]he nest of the Serbian nation is here and many of the townsfolk possess a copy of every ancient book. I've made a catalogue of Serbian books, with a great effort, by going from house to house and turning everything upside-down.
In the bookshops you could buy, in English and German, the works of Richardson, Fielding, Rousseau and Cervantes.
For a long time, though, Novi Sad preserved an oriental air. Its traders included Greeks in caftans, bearded Jews and swarthy Armenians, as well as southern Serbs in Turkish dress. In the early 19th century its citizens more or less westernized their daily life: they bought horsehair mattresses for their beds, filled their cupboards with glass, and some households had clavichords, though if you went into the kitchens you would still find the old cooking-pots, suspended on chains over an open fire.
Foreign visitors were amazed by the showy dress of the women; it was easy, wrote the Austrian apothecary at Petrovaradin, to mistake a craftsman's wife for a general's. Novi Sad, with its bands and cafes and promenades, was the pride of the whole region.

This horrifying exhibition of dance moves to "Cupid Shuffle" was perpetrated by Emeritus at his post-rehearsal dinner fete and not at Blogs With Balls. Even the whitest of rhythmless white people might find this unsettling.
Overall, it was an amazing weekend and Mr. Leitch and his bride make an adorable pair who should be envied by everyone. Except party DJs looking to find couples to participate in synchronized dance songs. Those individuals probably despise them.
Thanks for your continued support of Deadspin. It's good to be back to the grinding grind.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – This isn't just another mid-week game for the Lipscomb Lady Bisons softball team.
They are making the short trip north to face Western Kentucky at the WKU Softball Complex. Game time is 5 p.m.
Western Kentucky holds a 14-7 advantage all-time in the series, including a 6-3 record at home. Western Kentucky will be coming off a Tuesday night game against Kentucky from the Southeastern Conference. The Lady Bisons are out to rebound from a 1-2 weekend at Atlantic Sun foe Stetson.
This will be the last regular season road game for the Lady Bisons. They want to add another win, but they also want to make sure they are doing everything they can to maintain their No. 28 rating in the NCAA RPI. Only USC Upstate at No. 25 has a higher rating among A-Sun teams.
"We have talked all season about how we schedule tough and this is another example," Lipscomb coach Kristin Ryman said. "They have not had quite as strong of a year as they had last year when they were an NCAA Regional Tournament team.
"Over the years they have established themselves as one of the better mid-majors, especially in the Southeast area. They are a team that we play every year."
The familiarity goes a little bit deeper this season. Lipscomb pitching coach Megan Rhodes Smith was a member of the Western Kentucky coaching staff last season. But Ryman also expects to see some different things from the Hilltoppers.
"We are familiar with them," Ryman said. "Megan is very familiar with their players.
"They have a new head coach (Amy Tudor) this year and an entirely new staff. How they play the game may be a little different this year, but a lot of their personnel is the same."
After the Western Kentucky game, barring any last minute additions, the Lady Bisons will close out the regular season Saturday and Sunday when Northern Kentucky visits Draper Diamond at Smith Stadium. After that series they will prepare to participate in and host the A-Sun Softball Championships from May 7-10.
"We don't have many games left," Ryman said. "We want to get some momentum going. We also want to help our RPI. This would be a win against a top 75 team. That would be big for us going into the weekend.
"We want to make sure we are staying on track and doing the things we are capable of doing this time of the year. You want to keep building. We want to peak at the right moment."
The Lady Bisons spent Monday working on individual and small group drills. They had a complete team practice Tuesday.
"It will be important for us to find a way to rebound from a frustrating weekend," Ryman said. "We didn't necessarily play poorly at Stetson. We just didn't make the play or get the key hit in certain moments. We have to make sure we are rebounding from that in a positive way."
Western Kentucky swept Lipscomb in a doubleheader last season at Draper Diamond by scores of 8-2 and 7-1. In 2012 the two teams split in a doubleheader in Bowling Green.
Paige Neely leads the Lady Bisons in batting average (.389), slugging percentage (.568), hits (63), doubles (11), triples (3) and total bases (92). Neely has already exceeded last year's season totals for hits, doubles and triples.
Neely also leads the Lady Bisons with 17 multiple-hit games. Neely has a six-game hitting streak heading into the Western Kentucky game. She has the longest hitting streak of the season at 16.
Kristen Sturdivant continues to add to her career season high for runs batted in with 41. She had 32 last season. Sturdivant leads the team in home runs with nine. Sturdivant is first on the team in multiple-RBI games with 13.
The Lady Bisons have five regular hitters batting .300 or above including Neely. Rena' Cothron is second at .352 followed by Kelsey Cartwright and Brittany Elmore, both at .338, and Mimi Cartwright at .300.
Elmore is perfect on the base paths this season as she has safely stolen 21 bases on 21 attempts.
Senior left-handed pitcher Ashley Anderson has set a number of career season highs this season with 17 wins and 108 strikeouts.
She has a 1.51 earned run average and is holding teams to a .207 hitting.

Twitter Makes Bold Moves in Mobile Ad Game
Apr 17, 2014 3:25 PM PT
Twitter on Thursday announced new ways for advertisers to connect with targets both on and off the site, via products that it claimed could reach more than 1 billion unique mobile devices.
The new ad offering is the first integration between Twitter and MoPub, the mobile advertising exchange that Twitter acquired last year. With the partnership, advertisers will be able to launch ad campaigns that run across the entire Twitter Publisher Network. That encompasses 241 million monthly active users on Twitter, as well as roughly 1 billion people who use the apps in MoPub's ad exchange.
Marketers also will be able to buy app-install ads, which redirect users to an advertiser's mobile app home and encourage them to download its product.
Facebook has seen major success with app-install ads. Since launching its product in October of 2012, Facebook has helped generate more than 245 million app downloads.
Twitter already has seen success with the program, through tests with a few beta partners, including Spotify, HotelTonight and SeatGeek, which said it was impressed with the "high-quality, transactive app users" that the platform helped attract.
Giving Advertisers More Options
It's about time that Twitter gave advertisers the opportunity to explore its own platform's potential as well as MoPub's, said Paul Gillin, social media marketing strategist.
"It's essential that Twitter generate more revenue to satisfy Wall Street, which hammered it for its most recent results," he told the E-Commerce Times. "Mobile is the biggest opportunity."
Install-app ads can be a good way to start generating that revenue, said Jennifer Wise, an analyst serving marketing leadership professionals at Forrester. In addition to prompting downloads, they can supply marketers with valuable data.
"They are drawing attention and budget today because the action is easier to track," she told the E-Commerce Times. "With tracking comes metrics, with metrics comes justification, and with justification comes more budget. Extending their capabilities here to capitalize on the demand from app developers is a good idea."
Besting the Competition?
Twitter's latest advertising offerings are part of the never-ending battle for mobile advertising supremacy between the major consumer Internet giants.
The new ads have transformed Twitter into GetTaxi's "No. 1 acquisition channel," noted Rich Pleeth, the company's vice president of global marketing.
It remains to be seen if other companies will have a similar reaction, said Gillin.
"Facebook can insert advertising in line with the news feed, which is a big advantage in terms of prominence," he noted. "However, Twitter's terse format is also an advantage for getting a message across quickly. Facebook does a better job of supporting images and video; however, Twitter is known to be working on changes to its interface that will make it more of a rich media experience."
The race ultimately will come down to which company is better at chasing down cash, said Wise.
"Extending the reach past Twitter itself to its publisher network is a good move that increases Twitter's ability to monetize with mobile," she pointed out, "but ads for more mobile apps only go so far, and other factors -- such as who can capture big-budget brand dollars -- are important."
If Twitter can win over some of those big-budget clients, generate revenue with its new offerings, and continue to keep its platform the place where a tech-savvy crowd gathers to chat about the most current events, Twitter has the potential to be a lucrative mobile ad platform, said Nipa Shah, president of Jenesys Group.
"Twitter is so much more flexible, immediate and accessible than Facebook," she told the E-Commerce Times. "In that way it will do better due to the sheer volume of people using it. Best of all, Generation X has opted for Twitter over Facebook, in many instances, and that's where Twitter will benefit the most."

Cold temperatures this week are finally moving ducks south in the Atlantic Flyway. Every state in the flyway is open, or will open, this week or next. Though no serious weather is on the horizon next week, many waterfowl hunters are getting amped for what could be banner hunts.
"It's looking awesome, awesome, awesome!" said Avery Pro Staffer Sean Fritzges. A civil engineer with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers when he's not hunting geese, Fritzges oversees dredging in Baltimore harbor and channels through the Chesapeake. "I see waterfowl all day, everyday, but now it's incredible. There are a lot of birds around and they're steadily coming." Maryland's short season opens on Saturday.
Fritzges hunted last Saturday during Maryland's youth season with his son and three school friends. By 7:30 a.m. they had three geese on the ground. By 9 a.m. they were one bird shy of an eight-bird limit. "That's my rule, because that one bird will keep you coming back for more," said Fritzges, who shared the photo above. "The kids had a blast!"
While geese are being reported across the northeast, mid-Atlantic, and down into the Southern states, by most accounts they are just now getting up in real numbers and moving South out of Canada and the Great Lakes. The waterfowl conservation group Long Point Waterfowl estimates Atlantic flyway ducks are at their peak in the Great Lakes region and upstate New York.
"Basically we're at peak numbers, fantastic numbers, of waterfowl on Lake Erie," said Rick Jackson, a college student at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia. Jackson started the Twitter feed @ohiowaterfowl to track birds across the region and collates reports from hunters afield.
"This recent cold front has really pushed a lot of birds," said Jackson. "We've seen a ridiculous amount of Canada geese. A lot of people talked about last year being an incredible season, and that didn't work out, but I think this year will be it." Northeast Ohio, he said, has an uncharacteristically high mallard population this week.
Hunters in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont have also reported good shoots in the last week, with no sign of things tapering off. The below-average to average temperatures are likely holding birds in northern and central New England.
Coastal hunting zones of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut open for the short early season next week. All of New Jersey's and Pennsylvania's waterfowl zones open by next Thursday. Delaware ducks and geese open Monday. North Carolina opened last week and Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia and Florida open Saturday.
Along the south Atlantic coast, there are plenty of birds to kill, said Froggy Thorton of Capt. Froggy's Hunting & Fishing Guide Service in Hertford, North Carolina. "The hurricane and that Nor'Easter up north pushed a number of ducks down right off the get-go. We have divers, puddlers, and a good number of woodies." Thorton has been hunting the Outer Banks and Pamlico Sound for more than 20 years and believes this year is shaping up to be a banner season. "A lot more ducks are here early," he said.
Good numbers of sea ducks and scup are in open water, but redheads and canvasbacks haven't shown up yet, according to Thornton. Some pintails, widgeon, and teal are around, as are a lot of woodies. The captain also spotted 400 to 500 snows earlier this week - a rarity for North Carolina, which usually doesn't see white geese until middle December.
"Today, the swans came through," he said on Wednesday. "Last night and all morning you could hear them, and in the first few hours of daylight the sky was full of swans…I think it's looking to be an excellent year. Everyone around here is excited. It's starting out with a bang."

Check out the report below from the You Could Be Wrong blog:
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
As Casey Anthony's bankruptcy proceedings enter their 10th month (she filed in January), she asked a judge Thursday to dismiss Roy Kronk and Zenaida Gonzalez's claims in her bankruptcy case, saying they are without merit. Both Zenaida Gonzaelz and Roy Kronk claim Anthony defamed them and they should be considered creditors in the bankruptcy case. Anthony asked in the dual motions for the "fresh start" she is promised by law.
"This travesty has gone on long enough," Anthony's lawyers argue in both new motions, "Ms. Anthony implores the Court to end this matter so she can begin the fresh start she is promised by the law."
Casey Anthony told detectives during a 2008 investigation that a woman named Zenaida Fernandez Gonzalez, her nanny for 2 years, kidnapped her 2-year-old daughter. Gonzalez said she was defamed because of the similar name. Investigators determined that there was no nanny and charged Anthony with murder. Casey Anthony was eventually acquitted at trial of the most serious charges relating to her daughter's disappearance and death.
Anthony's lawyers write in their new motion that Gonzalez's claim is based entirely on privileged conversations with law enforcement and out-of-context comments Anthony made to her mother. Roy Kronk found Caylee Anthony's remains near the Anthony home. He claims he was defamed when Jose Baez made "false statements" about him. Anthony's attorneys argue that Kronk is suing based upon protected privileged comments made by Jose Baez. Besides, under bankruptcy law, a person "cannot be liable for statements of someone else."
"Over the years, many persons have pursued actions in which they sought to profit, one way or another, from Ms. Anthony's ordeal," her attorney, David Schrader, wrote in the motion, "All of the claimants have been rebuffed and turned away empty-handed, though most of them enjoyed their 'fifteen minutes' of fame while their claims were pending, which was the real objective."
Charles Green, Anthony's civil attorney and Debra Ferwerda Anthony's lead bankruptcy attorney, said their client never willfully or maliciously defamed Kronk, a meter reader, or Gonzalez, both are required for a defamation lawsuit.
"Casey Anthony specifically says when asked by the police 'Is this the Zenaida Gonzalez you are referring to?' she says, 'No, that's not the same person.' She's not talking about that Zenaida Gonzalez. Never was. Kronk is suing on what Jose Baez said in his closing arguments. He's suing Casey for something her attorney said, which just can't be done. Plus, what is said in court is protected," said Ferwerda.
Casey Anthony is set to be deposed by Zenaida Gonzalez's attorneys, her attorneys told FOX35 on Thursday that they will likely file a motion for protective order until after November 5th, the date the federal judge is expected to rule on the motions to dismiss. Texas Equusearch, another group civilly suing Anthony, may be nearing a settlement with her, according to a recent court filing.

Denver Broncos Recipe: Ajiaco, an orange-colored soup from South America
Ok, maybe it's a stretch to call it Broncos soup, but this South American stew does have a pleasant orange color. It comes from a sweet potato, which really doesn't add much sweetness and serves as a thickener.
Chicken-Potato Soup (Ajiaco)
You will find this soup throughout Latin Americ, and possibly at some football parties this Sunday. Developed by food editor Kristen Browning-Blas, makes 6 servings.
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 medium onion, cut into chunks
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 medium sweet potato, cut into 8 pieces
6 cups chicken stock
3-4 whole green onions, cleaned and roots removed
2 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup corn kernels, fresh, frozen or canned
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream
3 tablespoons capers, drained
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 avocado, peeled and diced
Chopped green onions
Put chicken breasts, onion, garlic, sweet potato and stock in a
large stock pot. Bring to a boil and skim off foam that rises.
Cover and cook on low 30 minutes. Remove and save chicken pieces
and sweet potatoes. Strain stock through a sieve and return to
Shred chicken and add with sweet potatoes, green onions, potatoes
and corn to stock. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes, or until
potatoes are tender. Using the back of a wooden spoon, gently mash
the sweet potatoes. This thickens the soup.
If desired, add sour cream and stir over low heat for 1 minute, or
serve it on the side.
Remove soup from heat. Discard green onions.
Serve accompanied by small bowls of capers, cilantro, avocado and green onions.

A lot of you are probably not obsessing over this the way I am, but I thought it would be a good idea to give you some of my thoughts on how to level and some other good tips.
Leveling Talent Spec:
I plan to start with this talent spec. The first talent point I gain at level 81 will be spent on Master Shapeshifter. After that I will probably sink the final four into mana regen talents. I think most of the choices are fairly obvious but here are the highlights.
- Mana Talents: I'm generally a fan of Mana talents while leveling. Fewer mana issues, means less down time, which means faster leveling. However, Man shouldn't be a big problem for the first few levels if you ICC gear. So I'm ignoring it first and making it a priority later.
- Owlkin Frenzy: If you are questing your way up to 85 this is a great talent. I found that it procced quite a bit for me in beta.
- Solar Beam: Having a ranged silence and interrupt can be a big help in 5mans and while questing.
In general our glyphs are pretty bad for leveling. Five out of six of our prime glyphs depend on DoTs and the Sixth is based on a spell that hits random targets. Therefore none of them are all that helpful if you are questing to 85.
However, there are a couple of major glyphs you want to consider:
Glyph of Entangling Roots: This will be a big help in instances when you have to CC. Could also help you while questing if you have to deal with a runner.
Glyph of Thorns: This can be a big help getting you out of situations where you pull to many mobs. It will also help your tanks with threat in the instances you run.
Zone Impressions:
Mount Hyjal - Of the two starting zones I like Mount Hyjal better. It's more linier and less confusing. It has some very interesting quests along the way that aren't your standard bombing runs or vehicle quests. I don't think all of them worked, but I thought there was some nice variety in the zone.
Vashj'ir - I don't think this is a bad zone, but it's confusing. First, your questing in a 3D environment. That made it a lot tougher to find objectives. Plus it's an absolutely huge zone. Overall I just had a hard time finding stuff. To be fair though, there where a lot of bugs when I ran through it in Beta. That may cloud my judgement some.
Deepholm - Very nice zone, but it was tough. I've been told that it was nerfed after I ran through it, but don't be surprised if it's much tougher then Mount Hyjal or Vashj'ir were for you. Play it safe as you go. Try not to pull more then one mob.
Uldum - If you like Cutscenes then you are going to love Uldum. I swear every other quest had a cutscene at the end of the zone. A fairly nice zone. I thought it was a little spread out, but it had some interesting quests. Plus, if you hate gnomes you are going to love one of the Uldum quests.
General Tips:
These are some general tips I'm stealing from a guild of mine Listerine. He wrote a big long post on our forums regarding these and some others, but I will paraphrase them for you.
- Complete Every Instance - All of the instance quests are available as you walk into dungeon. Therefore, completing the dungeon with the quests will get you a lot of xp, and some decent items that may help you level.
- Equip Cloth and Feral Gear to increase your iLevel - Lets be clear, I'm not suggesting that you should use cloth or feral gear. Just equip it and take it off, if it's a higher ilevel then what you've equipped in the past.
I know this sounds strange. The reason for this suggestion is to get access to the higher level dungeons quicker. The LFD tool will may bar your access to some instances if your gear doesn't meet a level requirement. However, when you use the LFD tool it doesn't look at the gear you have equipped. It only looks at the highest ilevel gear you have ever equipped in each slot. It doesn't matter if that item is currently equipped or not.
To be completely honest I'm not sure if this is correct or not. I didn't test it, but it can't hurt to do it, and it may save you time later.
- Spend your JP Points - If you're like me you already have 4000 Justice Points. Make sure you spend them before you start doing high level dungeons. There are quite a few good items that are purchasable with Justice Points. They will help you to get into heroics quicker. Plus, once you start running the level 85 dungeons you will start to earn the Justice points again. If your justice points are already capped then you are just letting them rot.
Guide Updates:
Finally, I've posted updated versions of my Gear list and my Raiding guide. I'm sure there are issues with both because I've been rushing to get them out before the expansion. If you find problems, please feel free to send them in the comments of this post, or send them to me in an email.

The more I look at the new model of the PS3, the more I hate it. It looks like a budget console, only without the budget price, and goes against Sony's recent good run of making improvements to hardware with later revisions.
So it's with delight that I settled in to watch tech site iFixit tear the thing apart.
Using some screwdrivers and a "plastic opening tool", they remove it piece by piece in an act lovers of the new hardware will call a striptease, and haters a torture session.
What's surprising is that it actually looks pretty good without that "grill" lid. Transparent special edition, please.

Is Your Website Being Replaced with Google Plus Local Listings?Blog Post: April 09, 2013
I started noticing it in February and asked the SEO community of reddit what they thought. Some just thought I was getting outranked in the organic results. I told them I used to be number 1 in both local and organic, and now only show in the local results. A reply was Google uses 2 separate algorithms for local and organic. I was pretty sure that it took a lot more than to be out optimized for a local service in a small city to drop from position 1 to page 4.
In the end I came to the same conclusion as you, there can only be one. Either rank organically or locally. I did notice that one of perks for organic listings, was that you could still have multiple pages rank organically on the first page, yet obviously in the local results you will only have one listing. However the local listing appear to be above organic results whenever both show up in the SERPs. It really just depend on where you think the highest CTR lies.

A very special relationship. Why Turkey's EU Accession Process Will Continue - March 2011
The widespread sense among observers that the Turkish EU accession process might be headed for imminent failure has been present from its very outset. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, however, the risk of a "train crash" in the accession talks is minimal. The reason for this is reassuringly self-evident: it is neither in Turkey's interest, nor the EU's, to derail the accession train.
We predict that even ten years from now, unless Turkey will have joined the EU as a full member, the accession process will be ongoing. Today's relationship between Turkey and the EU is like a Catholic marriage: divorce is not an option for either side. The only question then is whether the couple will be happy or not and the only special partnership that is acceptable to Turkey and to the vast majority of EU members is one they have today – an open-ended accession process.
There are only two ways for the current accession talks to end or be suspended: one is for Turkey to give up and walk away from the negotiating table; the other is for the EU member states to decide on a suspension. The first of these scenarios would require a major policy shift inside Turkey, which is very unlikely. Imagining a scenario whereby the opponents of Turkish accession inside the EU succeed in suspending the negotiations is just as difficult – not only because it is not in their interests, but also because it is not in their power. The combined votes of Germany, France, Greece, Cyprus, the Netherlands and Austria (to name some of the countries where scepticism about Turkey's EU membership has been an important part of the domestic debate) would fall far short of the 255 needed to suspend the negotiating process. Barring a return to the pattern of human rights abuses of the 1990s, a reintroduction of the death penalty or a military takeover in Turkey, the EU cannot unilaterally stop a process to which it has committed itself under the Negotiating Framework. Here, all the cards are in the hands of Turkey's politicians.

There is a perception among many in Turkey that the EU has consistently discriminated against their country. Yet since 1999 Turkey has often been given the benefit of the doubt. In 1999 it was given candidate status despite failing to meet the EU's human rights criteria. In 2004, despite only "sufficiently" meeting the Copenhagen political criteria, it was allowed to open accession talks – the only candidate country to be allowed such leeway. It was a policy of positive encouragement, and it worked well and in the European interest.
At the same time, any objective assessment would conclude that Turkey remains some way from meeting the conditions for accession. Turkey's human rights record – though vastly improved over the past decade – remains dismal by European standards. Restrictions on free speech, the number of minors in prison (2,460 as of July 2010) and the situation of women (Turkey ranked 101st out of 110 countries in the UN's 2009 Gender Empowerment Measure and 126th out of 134 in the 2010 Global Gender Gap Index) are all matters of serious concern. The EU is also worried about the security and economic situation in South East Anatolia, by far the poorest region in Europe.
One area where the EU has discriminated against Turkey has been in the field of visa-free travel. This suggests an obvious way to show that EU conditionality vis-à-vis Turkey remains "strict but fair": to offer Ankara a visa roadmap similar to that which has been given to Western Balkan countries. Once the roadmap requirements are met, Turkish citizens should be able to travel to the EU without a visa. Visa-free travel to the EU is a right enjoyed by Central Europeans (since the early 1990s) and by most people living in the Western Balkans (since 2009). The EU already promised it to Turkey under the 1963 Association Agreement. A credible visa liberalisation process would provide tangible evidence to ordinary citizens that the EU remains committed to a future integration perspective. It would also be a useful tool to advance the implementation of non-discrimination policies and promote further improvements in Turkey's human rights record, bringing down still high rates of asylum requests granted to Turkish citizens in EU member states. Such a reform process would be a win-win proposition for the EU and Turkey and a big shot in the arm for the accession process.
A very special relationship. Why Turkey's EU Accession Process Will Continue
- Conventional wisdoms about Turkish accession to the EU
- The first scenario: a train wreck
- Why both Turkey and the EU want to avoid a train crash
- The second scenario: a natural death
- Why Turkey is implementing the acquis

One of the more powerful scenes in North and South takes place when Nicolas Higgins, the textile worker, visits Mr. Hale after Higgins' daughter, Bessie, dies of consumption, which various forms of air and industrial pollution have induced. Although Higgins admits that he still believes in God, he makes a powerful indictment of established religion, which he sees as a weapon of the capitalist mill-owners against their employees. A cultural relativist, Higgins tells the former clergyman:
"I reckon yo'd not ha' much belief in yo' if yo' lived here — if yo'd been bred here. I axe your pardon if I use wrong words, but what I mean by belief just now, is a-thinking on sayings and maxims and promises made by folk yo' never saw, about the things and the life yo' never saw, nor no one else. Now, yo' say those are the true things, and true sayings, a true life. I just say, where's the proof? There's many and many a wiser, and scores better learned than I am around me — folk who've had time to think on these things — while my time has had to be gu'en up to getting my bread. Well, I sees these people. Their lives is pretty open to me. They're real folk. They don't believe i' the Bible — not they. They may say they do, for form's sake; but Lord, Sir, d'ye think their first cry i' th' morning is, 'What shall I do to get hold of eteranl life?' or 'What shall I do to fill my purse this blessed day? Where shall I go? What bargains shall I strike?' The purse and the gold and the notes is real things; things as can be felt and touched; them's realities; and eternal life is all a talk. . . . If salvation, and the life to come, and what not, was true — not in men's words, but in means hearts' core — dun yo' not think they'd din us wi' it as they do wi' political 'conomy? They're mighty anxious to come round to us wi' that piece o' wisdom; but t'other would be a greater convarsion, if it were true.'"
Note Gaskell's use of class and local dialect for characterization and to further her rhetoric of realism. This indictment, which incidentally demonstrates working-class intellectual ability to her middle class reader, sounds remarkably like that made by the Evangelicals he attacks (most North Country capitalists came from the evangelical and dissenting groups than from the Established Church) on what Wilberforce called "nominal Christians." Higgins also makes a point much like those Carlyle, Thoreau, and Ruskin makes in their attacks on the status-quo.

A few months ago, I received a phone call from the Temple President in Columbus, Ohio. A lady who was not a member of our church had called the temple, wanting to know if someone could help her find out something about her family. She wasn't even sure who her father's family was.
President Brandt said, "Point her to Peggy!"
I called the woman, told her who I was, and reassured her that I was someone she could trust. She was African-American, and was elderly. I asked her a few questions, again reassuring her that she need not fear me, and told her I would get back with her as soon as I had something.
Her family was not that difficult to find. I spent part of an afternoon doing some basic research and locating her family in census records, death records and obituaries.
I ended up taking her family back to the Civil War days. Imagine that! Clear back to the days of bondage.
I called her again to tell her I found some things she would be interested in, and asked her for her address. Again, she was a bit hesitant, but I told her that once I sent the items to her I would shred her phone number and address.
I sent sixty pages of her family's history to her.
I didn't hear from her for a couple of weeks. I just chalked it up to an "Oh, well" moment, and went on my way.
Then, the phone call came. She was beyond ecstatic!! She had shared the information with her children and grandchildren, and they were excited to take it to the next level. I told her that it might be a challenge to get beyond the Civil War, and that she should refer to the web sites I had given her in my letter to her.
This was one of those wonderful, feel-good moments that come in helping another. I don't know if Miss Pauline will ever know her pre-Civil War family, but what I sent to her brought her and her family great joy - which in turn, gave me great joy.

If any experienced moonkin have suggestions on things I can tweak/fix, please feel free to leave a comment!
Spell Rotation Attempt
Eventually, I settled into this:
- DoTs and IFF up on boss or large trash thingy (skip if baby trash)
- Wrath until Lunar Eclipse (out of habit), reapplying DoTs if they fall off before proc. Proc sets off SnA cooldown.
- Starfire through the proc, reapply DoTs at the end.
- Keep Starfiring to proc Solar Eclipse, reapplying DoTs if they fall off before proc. SnA is still showing Lunar cooldown.
- Wrath through the proc, reapply DoTs at the end.
Moonkin rotation just got tenfold more complex with these eclipse changes. It's honestly refreshing, as it's something I will need to sit down and really teach myself.
I think I need more spellcrit. I was running an average 23.55% spellcrit for myself, which felt really low when it came down to procs at important times (like sitting on top of FL killing turrets). At 2500 spelldamage, my wraths were doing all of 3k damage per hit on the turrets, which felt REALLY wrong and made killing the turrets unreasonably slow at times, while the nerfed kittydruid was still beasting out his own damage. Sometimes I'd get a great proc and the turret would die quickly; other times it would take forever. It was frustrating me, and focused me on wanting to figure out how to make my turkeyself better.
The scariest part was when I considered giving up moonkin and going cat spec for my dps dualspec. 2 problems with that: 1) we already have a raiding cat and need the moonkin buffs when I'm not needed healing, and 2) if I don't play turkey, I can no longer say I have 2 druids that cover each of the 4 major druid types anymore :) So, I'm gonna try to make this work.
Mana Use/Re-Spec?
I never once needed my innervate for myself except when I was swapping between tree and moonkin specs (and thus was sent OoM just by the respec). I was running full moonglow and 2/3 Intensity. I was thinking to drop another point out of each and pick up 1 point of imp moonfire and 1 pt of gale winds, like so: 57/0/14 ??
I'm open to further suggestions on spec. I use turkey spec for soloing/dailies, occasional 5-mans (rare), and 10-man Uld/ToC raids.

Daisy and Kitty's VideosOpen all Close all
What types of event do you film?
Mainly parties and weddings, but also done hen parties, christenings, bar and bat mitzvahs, civil partnerships and corporate events.
How far in advance can I make a booking?
We do not take bookings more than 7 months before the event date. If your event is longer away than that, you're welcome to get in touch, but we won't go firm on a booking til nearer the date for the simple reason that we don't always know where we'll be in a year's time.
Do you film anywhere in the UK?
Do you film outside the UK?
Yes, we've done videos for clients all over Europe, Asia and the Americas. We love filming in all kinds of cultures and surroundings and have found that the appeal of a lip-synched music video is universal.
If I'm using a party/wedding planner, should I book through them or direct with you?
Most of our clients deal directly with us but we're also happy to work with your party planner (and can recommend some very good ones if you're looking).
Can I phone you to discuss a booking?
We ask that you email us first, because most days we are busy working with clients and it's not good to have our phones going off in the middle of a job! Of course, after that we can speak by phone.
How much does a video cost?
It depends on the type of event, the number of guests, whether it's on a weekday or weekend, the location etc … The ballpark figures for 2019 are: £1,500 for a party (21st, 50th etc) and £2,500 for a wedding. Shorter, weekday evening events are less expensive. Longer events over several days, or events taking place abroad are more.
Are there any extra costs?
Travel and accommodation (if required) are extras. We charge train tickets, air fares and taxis at cost. As far as accommodation is concerned, we will usually try to get back to London after an event, but sometimes need to stay in a local hotel or, if you have any spare room, with you or your friends.
Is there VAT on top?
No, we are below the VAT threshold so do not have to charge you VAT.
What are the payment terms?
We ask for a 25% deposit on booking and for the balance to be paid within 7 days of the film being delivered to you.
How do I pay?
The best way is bank transfer, but you can also pay by cheque. We will provide both an invoice and a receipt for payments.
Who chooses the song?
You do. But if you're not sure, we can make suggestions. It's important to choose a song which guests know, and which has clear, simple lyrics.
How many songs will be on my video?
Usually one song which is lip-synched (i.e. guests miming the words) and one which is background music to film footage. For longer videos, there will be additional background music.
How long do you stay?
For as long as it takes to capture the footage. For parties, this usually means we arrive an hour before the start and finish at midnight. For weddings we arrive in time for the ushers' lunch and leave at midnight. But if we need to stay longer, we will, and there's no extra charge.
Do you bring special lighting or camera equipment?
We bring our small handheld cameras with lights attached. They work off their own batteries, so there are no messy wires or wobbly lights.
Do all guests have to be in the video?
No, if a guest doesn't want to be in it, then we don't film them. We're tactful and not over-pushy. In practice, most guests enjoy the process and love the result.
If you're filming a wedding, do you film the ceremony inside the church?
If the church gives permission, we'll take a long shot of the bride and groom at the altar, and capture them coming down the aisle, but we don't usually film the whole ceremony. Remember that our videos have a music soundtrack, so the audio of the bride and groom taking their vows won't be on it.
Do you film speeches?
Yes, we always film speeches and put them on a separate video, unedited.
How long does it take you to edit a video?
We usually have the video ready within 2 or 3 days of the event, sometimes sooner.
Can I ask for changes to the video?
Yes, and we will do our best to accommodate them. As every line of the song has to have a matching piece of footage, and each line has only been spoken by only one person, it's difficult to take someone out and replace them with someone else!
Do you edit footage filmed by other people?
Not normally, because so much of what we do is about being at the party/wedding and editing while the memories are fresh. It's more difficult and takes longer to edit other people's footage. Having said that we do sometimes take on projects in which family and friends send in iPhone clips or still images, for editing into a video. If this is the kind of thing you want, please contact us to discuss.
How long is the finished video?
It depends on the event, but usually between 6 and 20 minutes for the main video, with speeches supplied as a second video. For longer events, the video may be up to 30 minutes.
How do you send the video to me?
We email you a link to the finished film on our website, and we post you a boxed USB stick with the film on it.
Can I download the video from your website?
Yes, we can send you a special link which allows you to download it direct to your laptop.
Are you insured?
Yes, we have public liability insurance.
Features on Jenks&CoOpen all Close all
How do you decide what to feature on Jenks&Co?
Our features are about individuals. So while we're interested in brands and products, we don't run corporate puff-pieces. We prefer to focus on the people behind the brand or product, and hear about the hoops they jumped through to get where they've got to. The more personal their story, the better.
Can I suggest a Feature for Jenks&Co?
Yes, please email email@example.com.
Are the Features paid-for?
No, they're editorial, not advertorial.
Can I write for Jenks&Co?
Yes. If you have a good article ready to go, or a brilliant idea you can deliver on, please get in touch.
I have an event suitable for Party Fly. Will you cover it?
Maybe. Tell us what the event is, when it's happening and where, and we'll tell you straight away.
Can I be a photographer for Party Fly?
We don't have the budget to pay normal photography rates, but if you're good and want to get your foot in the door, please contact us.

Anyway, last week, the lucky members of the W Club were treated to an early bird opportunity to snap up these warehouse finds at reduced prices. One of those awful "entry level collectible" dolls was offered for $5. It probably cost more to ship it.
This Flaunt It Monsieur Z doll is the cutest of all and she's only $25. now. If I were buying, she'd be the one. Her hair and dress are worth the price alone.
You can get a couple of RuPaul dolls for $19.99. Their outfits are worth it - the bodies aren't. The Josephine Baker dolls are $50 and less. That's just a little more than an articulated body was sold for a while back and these come with outfits and heads. ;-)
When this was was for sale last year, I purchased it, sold the doll and kept the outfit. It looks great without the armlets.
