Congrats guys, this is huge! Love the new look. Here's to an even bigger 2019!
what ever happened to the overall mlg forum community?Replying to this because the nostalgia hit me hard today. After taking a trip down memory lane on the MLG site I found myself here to make my annual post. Haven't been involved in MLG for a good five years now (crazy to think it has been that long!) or Beyond for that matter in quite some time. But I decided to venture over to the MLG site today and was sad to see they removed the MLG/GB forums completely. All of those memories from that decade plus of my life, gone. I'm forever grateful for the experiences I was able to have and the friends I made through MLG/THC/Beyond. I truly wouldn't be where I am today without Halo/MLG in my life. Crazy to think how much of an impact this game really had on me, who would have thought it would still be a part of my life today? Sorry, I'm reflecting haha. Either way, it's bittersweet, was hoping to reminisce and search through some old posts to and find a gem or two. The MLG forums and events themselves will always hold a special place in my heart. Also, hope you know, MLG paintball will live on as one of my favorite gaming memories of all time. Hope all is well!
OT Thread of OTSweet baby Jesus Scalzo...talk about getting hit with a wave of nostalgia. Can't believe this thread is still somewhat alive and well. Congrats Cyp! Are you still out in Colorado? The wife and I moved out to Denver last April.
GLHF to all who apply! This is a great opportunity. Definitely would not be where I am today without the Beyond family.
15 years of Halo and Xbox, share your memories!
Rocker replied to Simplicityyy's topic in Halo General DiscussionHappy birthday Halo 1! I never would have imagined I would still be playing this game 15 years later and for more than half of my life. I picked Halo up the day the Xbox launched and haven't put it down since. Throughout the years Halo has opened so many doors and given me so many opportunities. It has allowed me to travel, make new friends and a lifetime of memories and experience what I never would have thought possible from just a video game. Here is to another 15 years!

Halo: The Master Chief Collection Discussion
Rocker replied to CyReN's topic in Halo General DiscussionSo is the h1 playlist, or just mcc in general, dead? I've been caught up with real life for the last few months and just got on for the first time (and on the forums!) in a while and haven't been able to find a single game.

Destiny Discussion
Rocker replied to CyReN's topic in General GamingBack on the Destiny train boys! I don't know what type of savage witchcraft my friend pulled on me but he managed to get me to download it again after not playing since MCC came out. Here goes nothing!
Good luck to all who apply! This is a great opportunity to work with an awesome group of people. :bomb:
My buddy and I just ended a six hour undefeated session. We went in and matched with three other randoms who had mics our first game. We partied up with them and didn't drop a single match. Our winning streak aside that was probably the most fun I've had gaming in the last five years.
Your Game of the Year and Most Anticipated Game of 2016?
Rocker replied to EagleBurn's topic in General GamingDespite all of the server issues, R6 Siege is my GOTY. After all it is the only game I decided to even buy last year. I'm super pumped for The Division in a few months. I realize I'm a lot bigger Tom Clancy fan than I thought, Splinter Cell has always been my number two game behind Halo. Siege and The Division will likely fill out three and four.

Rocker replied to Moa's topic in Halo General DiscussionEnd of an era
I'm having a ton of fun with just solo matchmaking. Most of the games everyone has a mic which is awesome. I rock Fuze/Kapkan all day long. If you want to team up my GT is Rawkher. I have a general sense of the maps finally but I'm still trying to learn all of the callouts and little details so I'm not much help other than hey there is a guy somewhere That clip was legit, I'd be rather upset if I was the other team. Here are my two clip contributions: I didn't realize how clutch this was until I just watched it again - 2% health, happy trigger finger and no reload. I get a little caught up in the moment haha. xboxdvr.com/Rawkher/95bee9cb-c842-458c-ac8d-75a765a64c06 This one was worth the risk.

How God Helped Me Battle Depression
Andrea Calvert
Regular price
Angry and hurt, Andrea didn't want to have anything to do with God. How could she when, one day shy of her eighteenth birthday, she had to watch her mother being wheeled into the operating room of Toronto General Hospital to receive a liver transplant? How could a God that "loved" His people allow them to suffer so badly? Why did she have to spend so much time in and out of hospitals, watching the strongest woman she knew endure test after test? Watching this happen, Andrea came to the conclusion that no god would do that.
Then, on April 27, 2011, it was time to say goodbye. After ten long months of waiting for a second organ donation, Andrea's mother made the decision to let go—it was the hardest thing Andrea had ever dealt with up to that point. The loss of her mother led her into a downward spiral of depression, PTSD, and anxiety. Andrea lost years of her life and still battles to this day with keeping her depression under control.
Jesus reached down and opened Andrea's eyes at the darkest point of her depression. Searching for a way to deal with her pain, she called out to Jesus, who answered her prayers and called her back into His loving arms. What He has done in her life is nothing short of amazing—Jesus gave her purpose again!
This is her story …

IWLA 2020 Conference Speaker:
Justin Slocum Bailey
I'm Justin. I love languages and I love people. I help people have joy and success in learning and teaching languages. The absence of joy and success from most language learning attempts is a big part of what motivates me as a teacher and trainer.
I learn languages myself, too. Some of my earliest memories from growing up in Vienna, Austria, include deciphering the Cyrillic alphabet to study Bulgarian maps, learning the Yugoslavian word for peanut butter, and making friends in pickup soccer games where every one of us had a different first language.
I've gotten to help people of all ages learn languages in schools, summer programs, and communities, both in person and online. I've also taught guitar and literature and coached soccer, and I study and teach a style of Japanese jujutsu called Hakko Denshin Ryu.
Having enjoyed a combined twelve years in Vancouver, British Columbia, and Los Angeles, California, I now live in Ann Arbor, Michigan, but spend much of the year trotting the globe to train and support teachers and help schools, districts, publishers, software developers, travel companies, and non-profit organizations do their work even better. My training and consulting experience in the United States ranges from small liberal arts colleges and Ivy League universities to huge state universities, and from storied K-12 private schools to the poorest districts in the country.
You can get a lot of my ideas about language learning and teaching by reading the blog. You'll see that, on the teaching side, I especially like repeatable tasks and interactions that provide a lot of language-learning payoff with little or no prep. On the learning side, I'm really into habits and hacks that make it easier for normal people with normal schedules to live in a language. I'd love for you to leave a comment on a post or drop me a note!
Justin is available to work directly with a limited number of schools in the context of his visit, at a lower cost than usual because he will already be in the area for the conference. Justin is an experienced and highly sought-after instructional coach, guest teacher, and curriculum consultant. For more details, see indwellinglanguage.com/services/schools-districts-universities or email Justin at email@example.com

Is the stress of being in debt getting to you? You might only be a few months behind on your bills, or you might be so far behind that you don't even open your bills anymore. Whatever your situation, we have experienced, caring Counsellors ready to give you guidance and solutions that will work for you. Speaking with our Counsellors is free and confidential, because nothing should get in the way of getting help with your debts.
Depending on your situation, there are various options and strategies our Counsellors will discuss with you.
There are many different types of debt consolidation. A debt repayment program through the Credit Counselling Society means that we help you get on track with your money so that you only need to make one payment each month. The amount of the payment is based on what you can afford, and you do not borrow more money to pay off what you already owe.
Your Counsellor will work with you to figure out what you can afford for a payment each month, while still maintaining a reasonable lifestyle. While you are repaying your debts through our program, your creditors will substantially lower or eliminate interest charges. All of your credit card payments will be consolidated into one affordable monthly payment. In the end, this allows you to repay all of your debts, get back on track, and save thousands of dollars in interest.
Find out how to get back on track as quickly as possible while moving towards your long-term goals. We'll help you do this by helping you create a realistic plan that fits your budget. Your plan could possibly draw on a wide range of options such as the following:
If you would like to resolve your situation on your own, we're happy to provide you with guidance and information so that you know what to do. Sometimes this means showing you how to communicate effectively with your creditors to gain their cooperation during a difficult time, providing advice about consolidation loans, or explaining what to look for as you consider other options.
Speaking with one of our Counsellors doesn't obligate you to anything, and a little good advice can go a long way.
A debt settlement means that you pay back part of what you owe. If this option is right for you, one of our Debt Settlement Specialists will negotiate with your creditors to accept a one-time lump sum payment. Our debt settlement programs are highly successful because creditors recognize the Credit Counselling Society as a trusted, reputable non-profit organization. Speak with one of our Counsellors to find out if offering your creditors a settlement is the right option for you.
After looking at your financial situation, your Counsellor may recommend the services of another professional such as an accountant, lawyer, or Licensed Insolvency Trustee. If one of your options includes either a Consumer Proposal or bankruptcy, your Counsellor will explain the process, your responsibilities, and the long term implications. That way you have the information you need to make an informed decision. The sooner you come to see us, the more options you'll typically have.
While you may not have heard about us until now, we've been helping Canadians resolve their financial challenges and improve their financial skills for over two decades. During this time, we've earned over 50 awards for our service.
Canadians have chosen us the Consumer Choice Award winner in numerous cities across Canada.
Last year we were chosen as the winner in Ottawa, Hamilton, London, Winnipeg, Regina, Saskatoon, and Vancouver.
We are held accountable to the most rigorous standards in our industry and are accountable to over a dozen external organization. Learn more about who we are accountable to.
On Google, Facebook, Yelp, and other websites, you can find over 1,000 reviews from people that we've helped.
"I really appreciated the fact that I did not feel judged. I was treated with respect and dignity and felt that there was hope for my future."
- Ellen P
"Our counsellor was the best person I have ever dealt with. With this being a sensitive situation, he did not come across as judgemental, and he was extremely helpful."
- Tim S

Is there an easy way to get a small loan with no credit or bad credit?
When you find yourself holding an unexpected bill it can cause your stress level to rise. The last thing you need is more headaches. If you have no credit, or bad credit, you may be unsure what options are available to you. Fortunately, you may still be able to get funds through something like a small loan with an easy application process1.
What is a small loan?
A small loan, sometimes called a short-term loan, is a loan that borrowers can use for things like covering emergency expenses. Unlike something like a mortgage, you aren't required to use whatever you are spending the loan on as collateral. There are two different types of small loans, unsecured and secured.
What's the difference between a small loan that is unsecured and one that is secured?
The major difference between an unsecured loan and a secured one is that in a secured loan, the borrower has promised to cede something of value to the lender in the event that they don't pay back the money they borrowed. The presence of collateral means a few things in the case of a secured loan:
- Borrower can potentially borrow more money than with no collateral
- Lender may be able to offer a lower interest rate than with no collateral
- Borrower can potentially lose their collateral if they go into default
Borrowers may receive better terms on their loan because the lender has recourse to recover their investment if the borrower defaults, they can repossess whatever was used as collateral. In the case of a car title loan, they may be able to repossess the borrower's car for example. In cases of no collateral, the lender usually charges a higher interest rate to ensure that they make enough money to cover any losses from defaulting customers. As mentioned, small loans may be especially appealing to borrowers with little or no credit.
Can I get a small loan with bad credit or no credit?
You can1. While your credit score may be a factor in other types of loans, it plays a minimal role in your ability to get a small loan with LoanMart1. LoanMart is more concerned with the equity in your vehicle and whether or not you are able to pay your loan back.
How do I use my car to get a loan?
If you have a car with a qualifying title, you may be able to get a car title loan from LoanMart1. It's a type of small, secured loan that uses your car title as collateral. This means that you'll be able to keep and use your car during the life of the loan, just like normal.
What do I need to get a car title loan?
There are only a few documents you'll need to apply for a car title loan with LoanMart:
- Qualifying car title in your name
- Proof of income
- Proof of residency (certain pieces of mail)
- Government-issued photo I.D. (like a Driver's License)
- Several photos of the vehicle
Most car title loan companies also require that you bring your car in for an in-person inspection. A lender like LoanMart doesn't require this however. They understand that not all borrowers have the time to bring their car in. Because of this, they typically let customers submit photos of their car.
What is proof of income for a car title loan?
Many people believe that they can only use a paystub as proof of income for a car title loan. In reality, there are a number of different options you can use to show proof of income to LoanMart. For example:
- Bank statement if you are self-employed
- Disability
- Social Security benefits
- Settlement
How much money can I get for a car title loan?
The amount of money you may be able to borrow for a car title loan depends on a few different factors1:
- Total income
- Equity in your car
- Loan terms
The two most important things are your income and the equity in your car. Ultimately, these will determine how much money you may be able to borrow1. A reputable lender will not generally give a customer a monthly payment that is greater than they can afford.
What are the benefits of getting a car title loan with LoanMart?
There are several great reasons to get a car title loan with LoanMart:
- Low repossession rate – LoanMart understands how much their customers value their cars. Because of this, LoanMart only uses repossession as an absolute last resort. If a borrower is having trouble paying back their loan, LoanMart representatives try to work with them to find a solution.
- Simple Loan Terms – LoanMart never includes balloon payments or prepayment penalties in their loan terms. The principal is divided across the monthly payments, never kept till the end. And if borrowers want to pay their loan back early to save on interest payments, LoanMart encourages them to do so.
- LoanMart Peace of Mind Guarantee1 – LoanMart understands how stressful it can be to be holding an unexpected bill. Because of this, if a borrower changes their mind, they can give their car title loan money back.

Unity great strengths are the easiness to go from concept to implementation and its support for deployment in multiple platforms. It's not that easy, I can tell, after finishing a project with iOS and Android support but once you get it right, it works.
You can play it online if you have the Unity plugin installed.
The source is in my repository.
Right now this port is missing the HUD (and for a demo this size stock Unity GUI support would be somehow OK) but I better don't bother because the GUI system is one of the Unity weakest points and it really sucks big time. Due to performance issues is plainly unusable for mobile devices and it's pretty archaic and limited for everything else. You'll need to buy expensive third party plugins or use (and probably modify) the nice and free UIToolkit for sane and usable interfaces in your games, but even then you still will miss support for advanced containers and scrolling. Sight. The good news is that Unity 3.5 will have a brand new GUI system. I really really hope they fix it for then.
So please forgive my laziness but my fingers chucked and rebelled against me when I was trying to type OnGUI(), and using old fashioned GUIText is not my thing :D
Forgetting the GUI, Unity is an awesome and very fun engine to play with, and it's FREE.
Programming in C# with Visual Studio C# is also a pleasure.
Have fun.

Responding to the Children's Commissioner for England's latest report into social media usage among 8-12 year olds, Peter Coe, Senior Lecturer in Law at Aston University and a practising barrister, said lessons should start in primary school and include age-appropriate guidance for a generation that has grown up with the Internet.
He has created a simple 'green cross code' style acronym for social media use known as PAUSE to act as a starting guide for using platforms like Snapchat, WhatsApp, Facebook and Twitter.
Mr Coe said: "Social media is so ingrained in our lives now that it's vital we're preparing children and young people for the digital world as early as possible.
"The social media landscape has changed so much in last few years that even relatively young parents weren't brought up in an environment where use was widespread. We need to recognise that parents won't always have the answers to their children's questions about social media and ensure that the guidance we're giving them is both general enough to apply to a range of scenarios, but keeps up to date with changing platforms and use patterns.
"We also need to be educating children and young people from the very beginning about the long-term consequences from social media use, which can create a permanent record that might be looked back on much later by universities or prospective employers.
"The PAUSE guidance provides a memorable set of first principles that children can take on board and apply in their online lives.
"While the Government has committed to adding compulsory 'digital literacy' classes to the curriculum, it's not yet clear what form this will take. In my view, this needs to be started in primary schools in an age-appropriate way and should be standardised, so that all children are getting the same advice at the same age."
The code is:
(P) Remember that everything you put online has the potential to be seen by anybody and everybody, and that it can be PERMANENT.
(A) Before posting, tweeting, sharing, texting or uploading think about your AUDIENCE and how it could affect them and/or their opinion of you and others, now and later on.
(U) If you are still UNSURE ask for a second opinion from somebody you trust. Equally, if you receive a text, tweet, message or picture that you are UNSURE about tell somebody you trust.
(S) STOP AND THINK what impact your online activity may have on your privacy or reputation, or the privacy or reputation of others. Remember (P).
(E) If you are uncomfortable with anything that's been tweeted, posted, shared or uploaded END your involvement immediately and tell somebody you trust.

South London's sprawling patchwork of parks and pubs comes alive at night thanks to its buzzing live music venues and art hubs. From neighbourhood restaurants catering to a cultured crowd to cavernous spaces keeping clubbers going through the night, this part of London is as diverse as it is delicious.
1.El Pastor
One of the original pioneers of the city's Mexican restaurant revolution, this Borough Market taqueria is bursting with bold and boisterous flavours. Expect punchy guacamole, made-from-scratch blue and white corn tortillas and oozing quesadillas served alongside a mezcal-laced cocktail menu. It's open for lunch and dinner every night except Sunday, while regular fiestas offer the perfect excuse to crank up the late-night Latin beats.

Serving the best kind of medicine – food and drink, of course – Damian Hirst's arty bar and restaurant in Newport Street Gallery is just what the doctor ordered. Open until midnight from Tuesday to Saturday, you'll find seasonal British dishes served against a modern medical interior. The dining room is decorated with pills and potions, but the only tonic you'll have to contend with comes in a cocktail.

3.Voodoo Rays
Serving up New York-style thin crust pizzas to hungry clubbers and bar-hoppers in Dalston and Shoreditch for years, Voodoo Ray's first foray south of the river proves it is equally capable of soaking up one too many cocktails in Peckham, too. Classic and quirky toppings make an appearance on 22-inch pizzas (for sharing) and oversize slices (for solos) that can be enjoyed in with a frozen margarita or en route to your next destination.

Serving up a full English breakfast at 4am is the kind of masterstroke that's kept this all-night Chelsea eatery in business for the past 20 years.

Regularly winning awards for their quirky cocktails – Fish & Chip Shop Margarita, anyone? – and inventive execution, the drinks menu is divided into four courses while the innovative food menu showcases the best of modern British cuisine.

Want to Use Chatbots and Smart Speakers in Your Workplace? Think Big
Emergent Insight:
There is common sense in this article from James Dellow at cmswire.com about smart technology uptake in the enterprise. As interesting and "cool" as the technology is it is critical that it meets user needs. Sound logical? It doesn't always happen. Often times technology solves a problem that doesn't exist. By presenting a solution that makes lives and jobs easier there is always a big win.

Original Article:
Move over intranet. Technologies like chatbots, digital assistants and smart speakers are the new and exciting way for employees to interact with enterprise systems. However, while tech giants like Amazon, Google, Microsoft and other, smaller innovators are working to remove the barriers to entry, have we stopped to consider why we want or need these tools in the workplace?
Where Do Conversational Interfaces Fit in the Workplace?
It's true that employees say they want consumer-like technology experiences in the workplace. A recent survey by Kronos asked this question and found that:
Nearly half of employees (48 percent) surveyed worldwide wish their workplace technology performed just like their personal technology. Fewer than one in five (18 percent) do not want their workplace technology and personal technology to function similarly.
However, is it enough to infer from our desire for a more personal-like technology experience using conversational interfaces, which includes solutions like chatbots, digital assistants and smart speakers, that this is more than a case of a technology looking for a problem to solve? Can we trust them to make our workplace experience better?
Like the many disruptive digital tools that preceded these solutions into the workplace, their mainstream use in our personal lives is an indicator of future demand. Unfortunately, in the case of conversational interfaces, reflecting on consumer behaviors makes it a little harder to predict what their killer application will be in the workplace. For example, a 2018 survey by Adobe found the most common smart speaker activities include asking for music (70 percent) and the weather forecast (64 percent).

One person dies in 737 Crash. If not a miracle it's close to one.
A Boeing 737 jetliner with 131 passengers aboard crashed as it prepared to land and broke into three pieces at a Colombian island in the Caribbean early Monday. The region's governor said it was a miracle that only one person died.
Colombian Air Force Col. David Barrero said officials were investigating reports the plane had been hit by lightning before crashing at 1:49 a.m. (3:49 a.m. EDT; 0649 GMT) on San Andres Island, a resort area of 78,000 people about 120 miles (190 kilometers) east of the Nicaraguan coast.

The person who died, a 68 year old man is thought to have had a heart attack.
Wi-Fi making kids sick? Not likely. Dumb parents? Likely.
A group of central Ontario parents is demanding their children's schools turn off wireless internet before they head back to school next month, fearing the technology is making the kids sick.
Some parents in the Barrie, Ont., area say their children are showing a host of symptoms, ranging from headaches to dizziness and nausea and even racing heart rates.
They believe the Wi-Fi setup in their kids' elementary schools may be the problem.

Let's see now. Headache, dizziness, nausea, racing heart. Mysteriously clears on weekends. Ever heard of "I don't want to go to school" syndrome?

Moooving trophy
When it comes to mooing, 10-year-old Austin Siok is an expert.
The Dyer Intermediate School fifth-grader last week won an annual mooing contest at the Wisconsin State Fair because he sounded more like a real cow than the other about 80 contest participants. And since then he hasn't stopped mooing, said Austin's mom, Dawn Siok, 47, of Burlington.
"He's pretty much mooed everywhere we've went now," said Siok, an administrative assistant for Kohl's. "He mooed at the bank and he mooed at Kohls. Everyone wants to hear him moo."

Solo: Islands of the Heart could have been the perfect summer game. Its seaside aesthetic is soothing and bright. Its puzzles are thought provoking but still laid-back. And its story can be very reflective. That's why it's a shame that technical bugs, a heavy-handed story and an empty world hold it back from the full potential. Either way, Islands of the Heart remains an enjoyable, small-scale puzzle title.
Solo: Islands of the Heart's puzzles surprised me. Box based puzzles have been shoehorned into so many other games, that I had felt like I had played Solo, without actually playing it. But Solo proves that even an old dog can learn new tricks, as the block based puzzles continue to surprise to the very end.
The puzzles in Solo begin simple enough. Your little sailor needs to stack boxes to reach areas that he's too short to climb. However, over the course of the game, it introduces new mechanics to keep things fresh. Different types of blocks – like ones that push out gusts of wind – add completely new combinations to play with. Experimenting with them is, perhaps, the best thing about Islands of the Heart. Soon you'll even get a magic wand that'll allow you to move blocks from a distance. This allows for some really cool moments where you manipulate and create platforms while you're already half way up a wall.
The best thing about the puzzles is how they make you think economically. More often than not you'll only be given a few blocks to get across a wide gap, and it's up to you to figure it out. The fact that you're barely scrapping by means you'll need to think creatively; getting the most mileage out of the few resources you're given.
Solo makes the most out its novel idea, but there are a few issues holding back this unique gameplay. The magic wand requires you to use a cursor that is way too sensitive, with no option to turn it down, while placing blocks and boxes exactly where I wanted always turned into a struggle. Very often I'd have to reposition the camera to get the ideal angle. Even then the camera can be more than awkward at times, and this means that solving the puzzles just doesn't feel as intuitive as it could do.
There are also a few optional puzzles that aren't required to progress. These are pleasantly difficult and fun, but ultimately pointless. It's a shame how there aren't any in-game rewards for completing them, apart from the enjoyment, and this is an example of how the Switch's lack of Xbox-styled achievements can hurt certain games.
Solo makes its central theme very clear from the start: it's a game all about love. It asks the player's gender, sexuality and experiences with love and the game never stops questioning. Our lonely, little avatar travels off, away from their isolated house in search of love, moving from one totem to the next. Each one of these totems will ask the player, often, very personal questions about their views, experiences and opinions on love. This can range anywhere from how important you value looks or sex, to hypothetical scenarios, like making you choose between your family or your love in a big fight.
Solo's contemplative atmosphere, island aesthetic and mellow soundtrack stop these questions from ever feeling too intrusive. The relaxed vibes also create a safe, introspective, virtual space for you to actually mull over these queries while solving the puzzles. Although, it never feels as if any of my choices have any real effect on the game itself. The spirit of your future love might sometimes repeat an answer back to you… making you feel bad for being so shallow. Apart from that, there are no real consequences. Some of the questions are also a bit too personal, coming across as pretentious at times.
Aesthetically, Solo: Islands of the Heart on Switch is an odd mix. Nintendo fans might immediately think of Wind Waker but Solo has more of an Animal Crossing look with its stubby characters. Made on the Unity engine, a lot of the terrain can often seem too jagged, blocky and handmade, rather than a genuine set of islands. If you can ignore that though, than Solo is a pleasantly bright and summery game. With the use of a guitar, players can change some cosmetic things in the world; making the game completely black and white, seeing it rain or bringing back the sunshine.
Apart from the way the game looks, Solo's world is also filled with other notable sights to try and make it believable. Seagulls, chubby elephants and other wildlife creatures fill out the setting. Feeding and petting them are cute enough until you see them for the tenth time. There's not a lot of visual variety to Solo's world, and there is no real reason to stop and take in the sights.
In both docked and handheld mode, Solo: Islands of the Heart has some technical issues – specifically the draw distances aren't great. Despite the fact that Solo's archipelagos are quite small, pop-in of textures, terrain and objects are common, while I also encountered multiple bugs that needed me to load up my save to progress.
Despite not reaching its full potential, Solo: Islands of the Heart still succeeds at being a fun, relaxing summer game. It milks block based puzzles in the best way. It has a cute, innocent and friendly atmosphere (even if the world is a bit empty). And though its romantic narrative tries too hard at times – and can even get too personal – seeing developers take on a risky subject matter is always welcome.

FDLT Y1 Leicester Making and manipulating images.
17th March 2016
Year One FDLT students at Leicester exploring ice balloons in their first science session.
Using a range of materials from salt to sand; tools including drills and thermometers and different temperatures of water students explored the ice structure by testing out their own questions and ideas.
It was a great way to begin to reflect on teaching science in a fun and engaging way. We also considered how the exploration could be used to explain observations in the world around us and as starting point for a range of cross curricular topics.
FDLT Y1 Oadby visit to Newton Field Centre
Exploring creativity in learning 20th April 2015
The students used a range of resources to communicate what creativity is in the session. We had a two poems, an illustrated box and an animation.
Exploring art and digital technology 11th March 2015
In this session the Y1 Oadby students made collages, manipulated the images in the apps 'Rollworld' and 'Fragment' and then chose an image from each exploration to put in a sequence the app 'Visual Poet'. They also introduced me to the apps 'Perculator' and 'Photobooth'.
Newton Field Centre 2nd June 2014
On Monday 2nd June The FDLT Y1 Oadby group spent the day at Newton Field Centre, with Georgina Hand, Ken Bland and Jean Edwards, exploring the curriculum and learning in the field centre environment.
They made a river profile by measuring from bank to bank; they timed the flow of the river in the riffle and in the pool and they were shown how to take a kick sample from the river bed.
They sorted the creatures they found in the sample by number of legs and looked more closely at these using a magnifier and the Big Magnify app on the IPad.
Georgina talked to them about how the river creatures can reflect the health of the river.
After lunch we went for a walk to see the medieval fishpond and the dovecote that provided food for the manor house of the Tresham family many centuries ago.
The group tool photos and on our return they used the VisualPoet app to choose three photos and then caption them. You can read more about how to use the app here – http://mypad.northampton.ac.uk/appsforlearningandteaching/
Here are some of the sequences the group made.
In the afternoon the group made and printed from collage tiles inspired by the shapes and textures of the stones the building was constructed from.

Finding the Best Light Fixture for Your Home
Lighting is probably one of the most important things we need in our daily life. Without any source of lighting, we literally would not be able to do anything. Although most people may argue that we have sun and moon as a very stable source of light, but there are some times where their natural lightings would not be able to shine through in every areas possible, such as some rooms in our home. Another thing is that we typically need very bright lighting to properly conduct some daily work, like for example in times of cutting and cooking. Thus, it is basically important for every room to be brightened by a lighting device in any possible moment. Thankfully we have light fixtures that we can use that would exactly provide us with all our lighting needs.
There are basically a huge number of lighting variants all over the market, there are lightings that have different shapes, sizes, brightness, designs, colors, and even energy efficiency. The most typical type of lighting that we usually see on every room is pendant lightings. A pendant lighting or ceiling lighting is a type of light that is directly installed on top of our room ceilings, which is in turn is capable of giving bright lighting to a good portion area of the room. The next lighting that is also used in homes are called wall lightings. Wall lightings are basically what they are known as, wall lighting devices, which are installed into the walls, which is tend to be installed near doors. And finally, definitely the most essential lighting for sleeping time is called lamps. Lamps are basically a type of lighting that is not installed to any surfaces, but instead they can be placed near electrical sockets. Some lamps do not need to be plugged in to work as well, since they have built in batteries.
In this current day and age, there are actually a variety of ways to find the best lighting fixtures for our homes. Not only can we just simply directly buy them in remote stores, but we can also buy lights online them through online purchases as well. Almost every branded lightings that we can ideally find on the market should also have their personal remote stores but also their online specialty stores as well. That is why it is not really difficult to find the perfect type of lighting that you would want to install to your home. If you are interested on finding the best lighting in Australia, then check out Oz Lights Direct for more info.

U.S.—Snopes has rolled out a helpful new feature: an opinion checker.
Alongside the site's helpful fact checks of satirical articles and debunking of urban legends, there will now be a section of the site dedicated to checking out opinions and letting you know which ones are acceptable to hold.
"Just checking facts wasn't enough anymore---now, people are looking to Snopes to be the moral arbiter of which opinions are OK and which ones are not," said a spokesperson for the website. "This has been a long time coming. We've pretty much been doing this all along, but disguising it as a 'fact check.' So now we can just be much more upfront with people about what our intentions are."
As soon as the feature went live, Snopes had opinion-checked dozens of opinions, including the following:
- President Trump isn't as bad as Hitler
- White men aren't all bad
- Abortion is wrong
- Pineapple does not belong on pizza
- Hillary Clinton is not a good person
- The Last Jedi is trash
- It's OK to laugh at a joke on the internet
All of these earned a "Wrong" opinion rating. Any post expressing these opinions on social media will automatically be tagged with a "Wrong" rating from Snopes.
Breaking: PayPal Now Available

As an Operations Director, I get a lot of questions regarding M2M SIMs and how they work. This post is a compilation of the top 10 questions we normally get asked about M2M SIM cards. This information will be handy if you are shopping for a SIM card for your application, or are a reseller looking to put together some material around M2M SIM cards to answer your customers' questions.
1. Why do I see some cards with really low data amounts, for example 10MB? Why not just install a high street SIM card with 5GB of data for example?
M2M SIM cards are designed for a particular application and have a certain "tariff" associated with it, which reflects the specific price. For example if your application only needs 10MB of data per month, for example a sensor monitor, you can tailor the tariff to that exact amount. This allows you to get optimal pricing and ensure you are not paying for data you don't need.
2. Is there anything different about the network?
M2M traffic generally uses what is called a "private APN", which is configured on the device. The APN is a configuration context in the mobile network which gives different resources to the M2M traffic. This generally means that the bandwidth is not shared with consumer bandwidth, so there is no risk of congestion in peak periods, and service levels for that APN are higher than a standard consumer type SIM card.
3. What types of SIM card are there?
The standard types are available – nano, micro and standard (also called "mini"). There are also some specific types, such as heavy duty SIM cards, which are more robust, and solderable SIM cards which can be soldered directly onto a circuit board, for use in high stress environments.
4. Can I have static IP's?
Yes, it is possible to have a static IP service with the right APN configuration, where the IP addresses can be assigned by the mobile network or by your systems. If you want to assign IP addresses yourself you would need a "RADIUS" server, which authenticates connection requests from SIM cards. By doing this, you can assign an individual username and password to each SIM or group of SIMs, and assign IPs accordingly.
5. What are "managed" SIM cards?
The SIM cards are referred to as "managed" because a portal is also provided with the SIM cards where you can activate, deactivate and check usage in real time. With normal consumer SIM cards it is not possible to do real time management – you would need to call the mobile provider and then wait a certain amount of time before the action took place.
6. Is there an API for management?
Yes, there is an API for management which replicates all features available in the portal interface. Instead of using the portal, you can use the API to build the management functionality of the SIM cards directly into your own portal. This makes it easier for your users and customers because they can use an interface they are already familiar with.
7. What are CDRs? Are they available?
CDRs refer to "Call Detail Records". They are generally presented as a large file in CSV format with multiple fields related to each data session the SIM card made. For example, the date and time the session started, stopped, and the mobile network used. Similar files are also presented for voice and SMS usage.
8. How do the multiple mobile networks work on a single SIM card?
Pangea offers a single SIM card that can be considered as "always roaming". This means the SIM card has no "home". We are able to apply a set of rules onto that SIM card, which tell it what networks it can connect to around the world, and what services the SIM is allowed to use on those networks. For example, we can set a SIM to use voice and SMS only, or data only, or a combination of all three.
9. Isn't data roaming expensive?
It doesn't have to be. A consumer may think it's expensive, especially if travelling outside Europe, but those prices are built based on consumer usage patterns and what the mobile networks think is a fair price for roaming! For M2M SIM cards it's possible to build custom roaming deals, for example roaming in the UK and Italy only. Having a specific country roaming agreement in place will drive the price down because the costs are known – as opposed to setting a higher price for a consumer where the network has to predict where the consumer will be.
10. What is CSD and do you support it?
CSD stands for "Circuit Switched Data". This is an older style of data communication which was commonly used before IP packets to transfer data over mobile networks. This is still in use today in a lot of legacy systems, such as building sensors, automated gates in driveways, pumps at service stations, and elevators, just to name a few. Pangea fully supports CSD, so if a customer is enquiring, feel free to talk to us about it!
If you would like more information on the above or have some more questions, please feel free to get in touch.

By Dr. Manpreet Grewal
The thyroid is a small gland located just below your Adam's apple. Hormones produced by the thyroid gland — triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) — control the metabolism, or how your body's cells use energy from food. These hormones also regulate vital functions including body temperature and heart rate.
You should consult your doctor if you feel unusually tired and experience symptoms such as dry skin, increased sensitivity to cold, aching muscles, irregular menstrual periods, bloating, constipation, memory loss, or losing your voice. Together, these symptoms could indicate hypothyroidism. Your doctor will conduct a blood test to measure the levels of thyroid hormones present, which indicates if your thyroid is underactive.
If the tests indicate you are experiencing hypothyroidism, they will also help your doctor determine the right dosage of medicine to prescribe. Treatment is generally daily injections of synthetic thyroid hormones, and your doctor may repeat these tests at least annually to ensure you continue to receive the right levels of hormones.
You are at increased risk for hypothyroidism if you are a woman, older than 60, have a family history of thyroid disease, have an autoimmune disease such as type 1 diabetes or celiac disease, have been treated with radioactive iodine or anti-thyroid medications, received radiation to your neck or upper chest, have had thyroid surgery, or have been pregnant or delivered a baby within the past six months. Some medications, such as lithium, can also contribute to thyroid disorders.
If left untreated, hypothyroidism may result in complications such as goiters, neuropathy, infertility, and birth defects to babies born to women with hypothyroidism.

They can be used as pendants, in necklaces, bracelets and any piece of jewellery you can consider. While women tend to consider objects that they would want, this is not precisely what a man needs as a reward.
Writer: Jessica Y How arduous is it to discover a reward for grandma? But at the same time, experienced buyers routinely discover glorious buys perhaps not the unbelievable bargains that some claim, however choice and value that far exceed what they can find in retail shops where they reside. Writer: joyjason The jewellery marketplace is one in every of the most popular vital in retail. There are plenty of Pandora Model Bracelets to choose if you wish to create a bespoke item of jewellery. There are various trinkets and chains made of treasured metals and stones. Uncommon metals like gold and silver are not low-cost and so are diamonds and pearls. Historically, Italian horns have been manufactured from silver and crimson coral, as these two supplies had been thought of to be auspicious. Although Chamilia charms are not the most popular charm bracelets on the market, they're giving each Pandora jewelry and Trollbeads a run for his or her cash.
You should buy the starter bracelet and three to four charms for the Pandora charm bracelet, after which put in further charms to it later on.

Or they don't want a particular occasion in any respect, however just like to be surprised with a sudden reward. The way in which you put on a pendant—hanging it round your neck like a statement—gives it a special place of honor in your wardrobe. Take something you do not wear often to a pawn store or other institution and have it looked it.
Besides, the real ones have design created immediately inside, while faux ones have it on the surface. Laurie Ament created the lampwork beads and the necklace in her authentic jewellery design. Some of the trade leaders akin to Pandora and Chamilia are selling their beads for high greenback costs which might be indicative of the high end trend jewellery shops that promote them. Publisher: Lam Individuals love vogue accessories extraordinarily style jewellery. Writer: BartNortonn Whereas colored diamonds may be present in a large differ of palettes like red, pink, blue, brown and purple, it is the yellow ones which might be actually charming. Thus, a aggressive advantage is established if the company scales to a big diploma, which Pandora has, whereas the competitors has slept. If you have any questions about this collection, our staff could be honored to help you further while buying.

J M Moses the Law Giver Part 1/5

Moses the Law Giver Part 1 Transcribed &Translated By Brian SW Kim Produced By Jordan Maxwell Moses the Law Giver Part 1 Alright, I want to talk a bit about Moses because Moses is very important to American Law, because , uh, United States operates on three premises. One Roman government, Our government is Roman in style. Our philosophy is Greek and our law is Jewish. As Moses is very important to the laws of America, the Mosaic law so let's look at Moses because it's a very interesting history, about the real story of Moses, the law giver. We know that Moses was given the law by God. he is the law giver, the leader of the children of Israel. and supposedly God gave Moses the ten commandments on the Mt Sinai, and he comes down from Mt. Sinai, bring it to the children of Israel the new law. The whole and actually the ten commandments also of which Moses was supposed to have gotten from God. The ten commandments are actually based on the Egyptian negative confessions do some research at the library on the web on this subject of Egyptian negative confessions and you'll find that the Egyptian negative confessions was the laws in Egypt and they're almost identical to the ten commendments. So, that's probably where we get the ten commandments was from Egypt. And here's just a classic example of the comparing the Egyptian negative confessions to the Hebrew. Uh, laws from Moses. So the mosaic law. Moses, the law giver, "alright we have Moses , the law giver in the legislative chambers of all cross America and all those States and the Federal Government we have statues of Moses being the law giver, not even mentioning of course the Vatican and all over the world Moses as respected as the great law giver. Supreme Court is the Moses holding the two laws the tablets interesting to know that Moses first given the law from God. He on the tablets, he threw them down a book, the tablets, he was the first law breaker. This is why we get the idea that you break the law. As I said, here's Moses , the law giver, dipicted in the Us House of representatives. Why does Moses have horns? Now I have some interesting questions about Moses, Let's start with his horns. A lot of people don't know about Moses was always pictured with horns. Now this is about the Vatican. In churches, you always see it Moses. Anytime he's portraited with horns. Moses is pictured with the "Moon or Luna Horns". Moses was the focal figure of an ancient cult of moon worship on the Sinai Peninsula. The horns represent the Cresent Moon. The moon in this little clearer resembles horns, as it's a encyclopedia talks about the luna face when the horns of the Cresent moon point up at the angle. So, the horns are actually the moon and the lower quarter. And you'll feel the God of the moon, his name was sin, we'll get it in just a moment. you'll see the goddess is here, where she's got the moon. The moon horns Native Americans of course, native Americans chiefs wore horns. Ah, this is why they would count their days, native Americans would count the days some Sunday on. That's why they would always keep track of their days by mini moons. there are many suns but by mini moons So, the horns of native American Indian chiefs wore the lunar for the mini moons. And across the Vikings kept the same identical idea. The Vikings had the moon horns. There as I said this lower quater of the moon was and a shape of horns. And so establishing that the lower quarter of the moon that the horns now we'll get into the actual archaeological findings we see the moon, big pictured on coins. Here's hands raise worshipping the moon. These are ancient findings in archaeology. Here's the moon on its boat as it flows through the sky in the ancient Egyptian idea. Here's the Virgo, the virgin in the constallation virgo connect to the lower quarter of the moon the moon god above the three in the middle. So, the lower quarter of the moon has taken on the appearance of horns. And here you'll see the same thing in the Vatican. Vatican, lower quarter of the moon. The moon cults, they got to bother to read all of this, because you can read it yourself, but it basically is talking about ancient cult of the moon. And question Islam, Allah is connected to the moon cult. Now, if you go to the Google for instance, if you go to google, and type in "moon god sin", because the actual name of the old Arabian moon god was, his name was "sin". S.I.N Sin was the Sumaric moon god's name. So as I said, if you go to google and just type in moon god, Sin, S.I.N you'll see that over one million inter list just on that one subject. Then, if you put into google, say, S. I. N equals Allah, you'll get about a million two hundred and seventy thousand inter-list talking about the moon god, Allah. And here's another one. Those ones are like three and a quarter million, if you put in moon god, Allah, So Allah or Sin, S I N was a moon god in the ancient Arabia. Here's another one. you put in Islamic moon god, you got a hundred 98 thousand entries. 여기 보면 카톨릭 교회에서도 심지어 초승달 문양을 사용한 게 보이죠 말씀드린 대로 달의 신 이름은 "씬"이고 씬은 초기 남부 아라비아 지역에 살던 크리스천들의 숭배대상이었습니다 이것은 중요한 의미를 가지는 게 ..... 셈의 자손들이 캐리비언 일대여러 도시에 에 퍼져 살면서 기독교 초기 시대인 서기 3세기에 걸쳐 달의 신을 중점 숭배한 사실을 알 수 있으며 그리고 달의 신 이름이 SIN으로 되있는 걸 볼수 있죠 이제 사전을 보면, 백과사전에서는 상징[심볼]을 볼 수 있고 달의 신에 관해 서술하고 있지요 바로 모세가 시내산에서 신을 만나게 되는 데 모세가 만난 그 신이 바로 달의 신 '씬[SIN]'이 되는 거지요 그 신은 수메리아가 일어난 이래로 줄곧 거기 있는 걸로 인식되어져 왔습니다 '시나이'란이름의 기원은 사실 SIN에다가 'AI를 덧 붙여 시놈의 옛땅 이름에 추가한 겁니다 그러므로 원래 '야훼'란 원시 아라비아 부족의 달의 신이었으며 그러니 고대 히브리리 족속의 신 '야훼'란 사실 산에 모셔지던 달의 신 '씬'[SIN]이란 거죠

Original story posted at: https://english.osu.edu/news/undergraduate-profile-sam-turner
Story by Michaela Corning-Myers
For many new college students, choosing a major is a daunting task. Not only will this be your life for four years, but it will likely determine which career field you will enter and remain in for the rest of your life. And what if you don't pick the right major and you have to switch? And what about again after that? It all can seem unbearably stressful.
This is the story of how one student, the indelible Sam Turner, turned a series of major academic and career changes into an opportunity to find a job, a research opportunity and a leadership position; work with faculty within Ohio State and elsewhere; and discover a path to the perfect career.
I sat down with Turner in Denney Hall on a sweltering afternoon. We had just escaped the blazing sun and were unwinding in the overactive AC of room 447. We began by talking about Turner's academic history at Ohio State, to which, she revealed that she had switched her major not one, not two, but four times. During her final year of high school, Turner considered being a music major (she plays the bass with vigor and excellence). Next, she decided to major in evolutionary ecological biology. In Turner's first semester, however, it became clear that a STEM path—tinged with green equations—was not the path for her so she switched to the University Explorations Program. And then there was communications. But alas, communications would not be for forever. She then added a minor in women's, gender, and sexuality studies, which would soon blossom into her second major…and then her only major, when she dropped communications to a minor. Finally, Turner added English as her second major, and she has remained with these two majors (English and WGSS) up to this point.
When Turner became an English major, she enrolled in English/CSTW 3467S: Issues and Methods in Tutoring Writing, taught by Associate Professor of English, Beverly Moss. This course is offered every autumn. Upon completion, students have the opportunity to interview for a job at the Writing Center, which Turner did; she is currently in her sixth semester as a writing consultant and her third semester as a writing center assistant coordinator, a position that was created specifically for her based on the remarkable administrative work she had begun.
Writing Center consultants collaborate with writers from across the entire university—graduate and undergraduate students, post-doctoral researchers, faculty and staff. They provide in person, online and walk-in sessions and have three separate locations. As a consultant, Turner meets with her clients and talks about their writing—whether that be completed work, drafts or prewriting. Turner highlighted that the goal of a writing consultant is not to "fix" their clients' work; this is a common misconception. For example, grammatical errors are not the focus of a session unless they are so pervasive that they would obscure meaning or if the stakes of the writing are very high—for example, if someone left a sentence fragment dangling in their personal statement for medical school. Instead, writing consultants empower their clients with the skills and knowledge they need to become better writers for the long-term. This doesn't mean grammar isn't important, however. Turner views grammar as a rhetorical opportunity to express meaning rather than a set of rules that is crucial to follow: "Grammar is political in that there is a particular set of rules to which we are all adhering, and that set is of Standard Academic American English. We try to talk about grammar in a way that expresses that having bad grammar doesn't make you a bad writer, and really, it doesn't mean 'bad' grammar. It simply means that one is not adhering to a certain set of socially constructed standards." Writing consultants also point clients toward relevant resources and provide the "listening ear" that can serve as a wall to bounce ideas off of.
Turner was hired at the Writing Center in the spring of 2017. She described her first week as "kind of crazy" and revealed that she cried after her first shift because she felt that she wasn't doing a good job. It was in these early days that Turner developed a curiosity about the Client Report Forms that the consultants were required to complete after each session. What was their purpose? What are the most effective methods of completion? Turner felt that the consultants should be completing the forms in the same way, especially because these forms were being sent to clients. As such, Turner went to Writing Center Director Genie Giaimo and shared her concerns. To Turner's surprise, Giaimo encouraged her to use her free project hours to read about the forms online and report back what she found out. And so it began.
As it turned out, there wasn't a lot of literature about the Client Report Forms, which was both difficult and exciting because Turner had the opportunity to add to something that hasn't been already explored. Of the literature she did find, there were two main camps: One theory, penned by Michael A. Pemberton, debates whether writing centers should be "sharers" or "seculsionists" (writing and keeping CRFs for internal purposes or writing them for others, i.e., faculty, clients). The other camp asks whether or not doing the CRFs is a worthwhile practice at all. The general consensus is that clients, administrators and faculty generally believe the forms are worthwhile, while consultants rarely do. Turner, on the other hand, argues that using reflection to build a better practice in one's job is always worthwhile. However, Turner also noted that while these readings did interest her, they really only examined how people feel about CRFs rather than outlining what writing centers should and should not be doing with client report forms.
When Turner reported to Giaimo what she had found, Giaimo immediately encouraged Turner to create a training for all employees of the Writing Center. Turner was surprised that such a responsibility could fall into her hands— after all, she'd only been working there for three weeks! Because every writing center is different, the training had to be shaped to work for Ohio State specifically. Turner and Giaimo discussed what they wanted the client report forms to accomplish and soon, the training was created and deployed. Turner began visiting each mentorship group at the center to describe her findings and what explain what she and Giaimo had decided the tutors should try to accomplish with the forms. Facilitating reflection and mindful practice in writing centers helps consultants to be better at their jobs and therefore to be more effective with clients. If a consultant is able to talk about what happens in their sessions and how they will approach that same situation in the future more effectively, that consultant will be remarkably better able to serve clients. Turner was doing so well that Giaimo suggested that she apply to present at the ECWCA (East Central Writing Center Association Conference).
Turner's proposal was accepted, which meant that Turner would be presenting in Michigan in 2017. She was terrified. She purchased a new business-casual wardrobe, but when she got there, everyone was wearing tennis shoes and jeans! Her presentation was intensely popular, and afterward, listeners had many questions. Turner felt so supported and encouraged that she was excited to return to Ohio State and continue working. Her increasing interest spawned a larger research project, and now Turner is currently working on a large-scale discourse analysis of all of the CRFs at Ohio State. At the time she started the project, Ohio State had about 9,000 client report forms. Unfortunately, before she began her research, no one archived CRFs, and no one knew how to access them. The completion rate of forms was a mere 20 percent when Turner began, but when her training was implemented, the completion rate jumped up to 95 percent.
This past spring, Turner presented once again at the Denman Research Forum at Ohio State as a representative of humanities research. In November 2017, Turner gave another presentation, this time at the International Writing Center Association in Chicago which boasts an attendance of over 1,000 people. Turner was voted to be the undergraduate representative for the ECWCA, and therefore is an active member of the ECWCA board. She has also submitted a piece to the Journal of Writing Research, which is current under review. At present, Turner is working on coding. After graduating, Turner is considering doing her research at a graduate level, and is considering pursuing a Ph.D.
Though Turner entered college not sure of what direction she would go, much less which path she would take, she is now on track to graduate with research experience, a solid network of scholars supporting her work, and an idea of what she'd like to do for a future career. Especially at a school like Ohio State, where there are innumerable opportunities to get involved in research pertaining to one's interests, it is almost a waste to shirk those opportunities—what I'm trying to say here is, get involved where and when you can. Don't be afraid to throw off your training wheels and try out something new—it can lead you in unexpected, but ultimately rewarding directions.

Ah yes: Fall.
The time of year when temperatures dip, football season gets into full swing (unfortunately for those of us who are Philadelphia Eagles fans), and the worldwide pumpkin spice cabal asserts its influence over every walk of life. No one is safe, I tell you.
While fall has some downsides, like being a prequel to a long, cold winter and introducing the crushing realization that your favorite football team might not be as good as you expected (are you sensing a pattern here?), there are many benefits that go along with our most under-appreciated season. Chief among them for advisors is clients getting more serious about their financial plans after a long summer of vacations and leisure. That also means more and more potential clients looking for advisors to get them back on track financially. By ramping up your marketing efforts, you can position yourself as just the right person for the job. Follow our tips to put your marketing a step ahead of your competition's.
Revamp your website.
Your website should offer more than just a picture of your office and phone number. After all, it's the first (and arguably most important) point of contact you'll probably have with many of your future clients. This fall, make improving your website a priority so that your business has a more professional, polished edge. Another thing to keep in mind as you update your site? Mobile compatibility isn't just a passing fad for web developers—it's become a necessity.
Evaluate your social media presence.
We take social media really seriously here at eMoney—heck, we even wrote a book on it—so it should come as no surprise to readers of this blog that I'd mention it here. Take the opportunity to re-evaluate your social media presence this fall. Treat it like more than just a medium for short advertisements for your business. Engage potential and current clients, participate in conversations on the industry, and react to the trends and hot-button issues that are concerning advisors today. And if you want to make sure your social media presence is secure no matter what channel you're using, check out this article.
Remember the "Five P's."
It might surprise you that "pumpkin spice" is not one of the five P's I had in mind. But the P's that are on the list are far more helpful, if not quite as good in coffee or muffins. By keeping those five P's at the core of your decision making while planning your marketing strategy, you're sure to be more effective.
Here they are:
- Product. What are you selling?
- Place. Where do you provide your services?
- Price. What is your fee structure?
- Promotion. What sets you apart from others?
- Public Relations. What are you doing to relate to the rest of the world?
Check out our full article on the five P's for full descriptions of how keeping these five points in mind will improve your marketing. We even have this helpful worksheet to help you implement them in your own marketing plan!
Schedule a client appreciation event.
Given how important client referrals are to any advisory business, you need to make your clients want to recommend you to their friends and colleagues. That's why you should consider hosting a client appreciation event to which your clients are encouraged to bring a friend, coworker, or family member. You can easily make new connections this way, and if you provide good service your clients will want to help their guests by recommending you to them.
While nearly all advisors have techniques that have been effective in attracting new clients, this list provides you with an excellent starting point for growing your business. So get to it—this is going to be a busy fall. But with hard work your marketing will be a huge success, completely unlike my favorite football team.

Mercury NZ says it relied on the peaking capacity of its Waikato hydro generation to capture high wholesale power prices in the June quarter.
The country's third-largest power retailer said its hydro dams and geothermal plants earned an average $117.15 a megawatt-hour in the period, up from $79.84/MWh in the June quarter of 2018.
Production fell to 1,527 gigawatt-hours, 21 percent less than a year earlier, as dry weather in the North Island slashed the firm's hydro output to 796 GWh – 422 GWh less than the near-record levels achieved a year earlier.
Storage in Lake Taupo, which supplies the nine plants Mercury operates on the Waikato River, has been below average since October and neared a four-year low in recent months. In April, the company cut its full-year operating earnings guidance to $495 million, citing the ongoing dry conditions. The forecast assumed hydro generation would only reach 4,000 GWh.
"Despite below-average inflows in the quarter, Mercury was able to finish the year strongly by utilising the peaking capability of the Waikato hydro scheme to benefit from spot price volatility," the company said in a statement to NZX.
Mercury shares were unchanged at $4.58, taking their gain so far this year to 26 percent.
The company noted spot electricity prices had been particularly volatile due to constrained gas supplies. Futures prices for the 2020 and 2021 years also remain elevated due to industry concerns about longer-term thermal fuel availability.
Despite June quarter inflows being in the lowest 14 percent for the period, based on records back to 1927, full-year hydro production reached 4,006 GWh, down from the record 4,947 GWh reported the year before.
Annual geothermal output climbed to a record 2,896 GWh, 5 percent more than a year earlier. That brought total generation for the June year to 6,902 GWh at an average $138.29/MWh, from 7,704 GWh at $86.19/MWh a year earlier.
Mercury noted that national demand in the June quarter was down 1.4 percent from the year before, mostly due to reduced urban demand and a weaker milk production season than the year before. Excluding the Tiwai Point aluminium smelter, which re-started its fourth potline in December, industrial demand fell by 0.2 percent "possibly due to spot-exposed users responding to high spot prices."
Mercury ended the year with 373,000 electricity customers, down 6,000 from March and 15,000 fewer than a year earlier. It purchased 5,510 GWh of power from the market to supply them in the June year, down 2 percent from the year before.
It paid an average $144.19/MWh for that supply, up from $91.62/MWh a year earlier.
Mercury said it has reduced customer acquisition activity as retail margins narrowed with the continued rise in forward electricity prices. It instead focused on its existing customers and maximising the value of its book.
Of the customers joining its Mercury brand in the June quarter, only 27 percent received discounted terms, down from 55 percent a year earlier, it said.

Be a kid again. Can you imagine feeling bored at a party where the main activity revolves around having full permission to bounce, jump, fall, throw yourself about, toss balls, slam against walls, slide, scream and tumble into piles with your friends? Can you imagine being a child and not being scolded but encouraged to do so?
If you're a beach kid that lives in the city and suddenly you have a beach jump house in your backyard! Or you're crazy to be a fireman, and suddenly, on your birthday, there's a fire truck jump house for you and your friends to play firemen games until you drop. Or you're into fairy tales and there, just for you, is your very own kingdom, jump castle, magic castle, palace, a magical kingdom, princess dreamland or kings castle bounce house.
Perhaps you're a kid who dreams of adventure and you can't believe your eyes when a rain forest rapids bounce house or a jungle bounce house or bounce tiger or wild reef bounce house is your birthday present- with your own water park, slide and bouncing trampoline with river rapids and a jungle for you to conquer.
Or perhaps you look out your bedroom window on the day of your birthday and find a Bounce 'N Slide Club House for you and your friends to share bouncing secrets. Maybe dad remembered you're a futuristic kid and brought you a Bounce Rocket or a Moon walker Bounce House. It won't matter if there's cake or balloons or presents because the party will make a bouncing lot of fun!
If you're a parent and want to put on a fantastic children's party, don't underestimate the value of nothing more than jumping. You can hire clowns to get children to laugh, you can fill the house with balloons and expensive presents, you can order the most delicious ice-cream cakes and invite the coolest kids in the area, and none of it will compare to the laughter and smiles and giddy excitement that one simple house of bounce will produce. The laughter will fill the air, and your biggest problem will not be whether everyone has a smile on their face but that the gleeful children don't work themselves into a frenzy of too much fun.
Bounce house always provides immense pleasure and enjoyment to the kids. If you have a lot of kids at your home and your children love playing, you can get a bounce house for sale. A bounce house can be bought on discount price, or you can also buy used one if you don't want to spend too much for one.

The first night of musical "We" took place on the stage of Balaton Theater of the Hungarian city of Keszthely within V International Children's Creative Project "NucKids". 80 children under the guidance of the project creative group have staged an hour and a half musical just for three weeks.
"NuclearKids" has been gathering talented children from different corners of the globe for the fifth year. The main goal of the project is to help children of the employer of the nuclear industry to open actor, vocal and dancing talents, as well as to find friends in different countries of the world. Children from nine countries: Russia, Hungary, Ukraine, Estonia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Republic of South Africa, France and Bangladesh take part in the jubilee 5th "NuclearKid". This year the major part of the project takes part outside Russia – in Hungary for the first time. The idea and implementation of the creative project "NuclearКids" belongs to Rosatom State Nuclear Energy Corporation.
"Each year the project beats its own records. This year we have beaten the record of complexity, having staged an hour and a half musical for three weeks, which is very complicated both by dramaturgy, by choreography, and from the point of view of musical material", - the head of the project "NucKids-2013" Anna Trapeznikova noted before the first night. Children have had rehearsals from the early morning to the later evening under the conditions of abnormal Hungarian heat, without showing their tiredness anyhow. The authors of the musical "We" found the secret of success of good production: 17 vocal and chorographic performances, 80 talented children on the stage, witty dialogues, creative costumes.
The action of the performance takes place in the Russian school, where shooting of the international children's contest "Talents of XXI century" takes place. The progress of the competition is covered by the school's school editorial staff, and the subject of journalism becomes the core of the entire performance. According to the participants of the project, not only secrets of the profession, but relations of the characters – friendship, intrigues, jealousy, love - attract in the musical. "It is a story about the school, about what is clear for children in different countries. It is a story about us, and we don't have to invent anything. I think the performance turned out excellent. And we have become friends in the process of its staging», – the project participant from Turkey Idil Kyoker shared impressions. After the end of the performance the audience rose in applause and called young actors for encore repeatedly. "I am just amazed by what I have seen. These children are real energy generators. Just small NPP!" – the state secretary for energy of the ministry for national development of Hungary Pal Kovacs shared impressions after the performance.
The project "NucКids" won popularity among the youth of the presence countries of Russian nuclear technologies long ago. After the first night in Keszthely, which became the rehearsal base for "NucKids" children will go to a large scale tour, during which they will perform in Hungary, Czechia and Russia. The performance will be shown in Paksha, then performances in Prague, Tomsk, Saint Petersburg and in Moscow follow. The summer session of the project will end on August 16.
The Chief Executive Officer of Akkuyu NPP Alexander Superfin noted: "We did the best to that a group of talented children from the Republic of Turkey spent time well and profitably. I hope that children will have the most vivid impressions from participation in the creative project, the main goal of which is friendship and mutual aid. Next year our company will again grant an opportunity to the children from Turkey to have an unforgettable trip to "NuclearКids".
Akkuyu NPP supports the international creative project "NuclearKids". The company ensures participation of children from the Republic of Turkey in this event for the second year in succession. Akkuyu NPP JSC will act as a partner of this project in 2014 and view the possibility of its holding on the territory of the Republic of Turkey.
