Arrived on the Gili's 10 days ago now and have done zero blogging, as you may have noticed? so lazy i know.
On the day we arrived, our luggage was launched onto the beach from the collection boat and we were prompted to jump after it. Luckily we all made it without incident. Apparently, there used to be a jetty that you could step off on to, but more about that later.
The available transport is horse and cart or bike hire. There are no motorised vehicles on the island, although there are a handful of electric motorbikes, if they count? you certainly can't hear them coming that's for sure. We piled all our cases and bodies in to the cart and watched this poor horse take us to our accommodation. These horses are not like your normal size horse and are significantly smaller, if you know what they might be please comment. Luckily for the horse the island is flat and not very big so they do not have endure long journeys.
We arrived at Mao Meno, our Yoga Retreat accommodation for the next 10 days. We we greeted by a couple of guys and shown to our (very open to the elements) bamboo shack, complete with, well, not much really. Shortly after settling in the manager (Maria) turned up. A very fit yoga instructor who gracefully approached to greet us with a smile. We we advised that we were the only people staying in the resort. I know this may sound meh, but Gili's south side has one resort on it, so in a way we had the whole south side of the island to ourselves. Sweet!
That night we ventured out for dinner and got caught in a massive rain storm. We had to take another horse and cart to get home. We were pointlessly trying to stay out of the rain, but all got soaked. During the night the rain storm remained relentless and pounded the island all night. It was a surprise that the flimsy open bamboo hut leaked in quite significantly. Who knew that was going to happen?
The next morning we all came out a little damp and were greeted by a swamp that had been developed in the resort overnight. At breakfast, Maria asked us if we got wet.. "just a bit. ha ha" we replied. She then said that as no one was in, or even booked in. We could leave the cheap seats and upgrade to the posh seats. Were talking, hammock, aircon, butt washing toilet, beanbags, fans! It did continue to rain a bit after that but not as bad. And just to add further value the resort came with its own monkey, the only one of the island. Nyonyon was a rescue monkey who lived in the resort. He was very friendly and took a shine to Tanya. Subsequently chasing the kids away and going in for cuddle's.
The whole island felt pretty deserted, due to Indonesia suffering some significant disasters recently. Earthquake, tsunami warnings and volcano activity has slowed the tourist industry. The locals were struggling with it a little. However, this did not stop them from being beautiful people, who always had a smile for you.
On the second day, we headed over to the west side of the island to explore the reefs there. The snorkelling is amazing and as tempted as we were to do some Scuba, it really wasn't necessary as you can walk out to the reef and see everything. Whilst on the beach, we met a family from Perth who have a house on the island and 2 kids similar age to ours. We all got on great and spent quite a bit of time with them. When questioned about his Lancashire accent, It turns out Michael (Grandad) is from Blackburn and emigrated 30 years ago. Anyhoo, the house in the island was designed and built by Michael, and is a lovely little oasis in the middle of quite a few, less developed or earthquake damaged houses. Their house did sustain some damage but was easily repaired.
During conversations Michael mentioned that the island used to look a lot more beautiful as some of the restaurants had cabana's on the beach and there were proper jettys to get on and off boats. However, the authorities came to the island and removed anything that was on the beach. If it had been made permanent by the business, it was simply ripped down. Now, I still remain undecided about that decision, as on the one hand i kind of agree that such beautiful areas should remain so despite tourism. On the other hand, these people have suffered enough disaster and still have the right to earn a living like the rest of us. The biggest island (Gili T) is where all the music and action takes place, and is contained there, so really no need to Meno to be as big and commercial. Different people have different views on this.
Gili M was subject to frequent power cuts, almost everyday, and with no generators it plunged the resort into darkness. Not all bad, as with a few candles and a beer it really was quite cool, but not aircon cool.
Everyone on the island will hire you a bicycle for about £2:50 a day. We hired the meanest badass machine we could lay our hands on..
Actually, being a complete bike nerd, I went for the only one that looked like it had been oiled and serviced. Can't have it all eh.
This year, amongst the other issues the islands have faced, there was also an unusually large amount of Mosquito'. I have honestly never seen so many or been subject to frequent attack. I understand we are in their territory, a swamp. It did feel an annoyance at the time, but it hasn't ruined the memory of what a beautiful island it really is
Favourite restaurant on the island was Mahamaya, Located at the NW side of the island it has amazing food, sand, staff and snorkelling..

Manuscript and Printed Leaves
Browse the collection search the collection
The Manuscript and Printed Leaves Collections contains digitized items from:
- Fifty Original Leaves from Medieval Manuscripts, Western Europe, XII-XVI Century
- Pages from the Past: A Collection of Original Leaves from Rare Books and Manuscripts
Browse the individual collections by selecting the collection titles above.
These collections are held at the Mahn Center for Archives and Special Collections, on the 5th floor of Alden Library.
The word "leaves" refers to loose, individual pages that were originally part of complete books. Often the product of 19th and 20th century "bookbreakers," or book dealers who dismembered historic texts to sell the component pages individually or in portfolios, these leaves provide insight into the history of manuscript and print book production from across time and geography.
Manuscript leaves are entirely handwritten and hand-produced. Many date from before 1452, when moveable type and the printing process was invented in Europe. Printed leaves are a result of the print process, although the mechanics and techniques of that process vary across time and place. All European printed leaves are therefore dated no earlier than the 1450s.
More about the Manuscript and Printed Leaves Collections:
- Fifty Original Leaves from Medieval Manuscripts, Western Europe, XII-XVI Century (catalog record)
- Otto F. Ege, a Cleveland-based museum curator and art history professor, began cutting apart medieval manuscripts in the early-to-mid 20th century in order to distribute examples of these Fifty Original Leaves to universities around the country
- Ohio University owns set no. 5 of a total of 40 produced
- The Fifty Original Leaves are all illuminated, referring to their colorful and luminous illustrations
- The Fifty Original Leaves are all hand-lettered on vellum (calf-skin) or parchment (sheepskin) paper
- Pages from the Past: A Collection of Original Leaves from Rare Books and Manuscripts (catalog record)
- This set was compiled by The Foliophiles, Inc., a now-defunct New York association of rare book dealers also known as the Society of Foliophiles
- Many American universities purchased these portfolios as teaching tools in order to illustrate the evolution of manuscript and letterpress printing traditions
- Pages from the Past contains examples of both manuscript and printed leaves
Future additions to the Manuscripts and Printed Leaves Collections will include more than 700 items from the Gilbert and Ursula Farfel Collection of Incunable and Manuscript Leaves and an additional set of items from a different Pages from the Past set.

"This sounds crazy, but the seed truly took hold when I was a young child," says Gary Kelleher, co-founder and master distiller of Dripping Springs Vodka. "My great, great grandfather was a vodka maker for the Czar of Russia, and as a little kid, I heard all these stories about it from my great aunt. So, at age 7, I announced that I would make vodka when I grew up. And I hung onto the idea."
"About 60% of the flavor of any vodka is the water, so in order to get our long, mineral finish at the end, the water was absolutely crucial," Kelleher says. "Some of the water available in central Texas is the very best in the world."
The water chase led Kelleher to Dripping Springs, a tiny town not 30 miles outside of the state capitol, where, alongside his brother and business partner, Kevin Kelleher, he began to teach himself to build and work a still.
"It was completely trial and error. I'm not a chemist, I'm just a guy who likes vodka," says Kelleher. "I thought, you know, I'll work on this a couple months and get it figured out. Well, it was literally two years ... I kept thinking, damn. Surely I'll figure this out tomorrow! I'd found the spring, and after having studied all the great vodkas of the world, I knew what I wanted it to taste like, but I didn't know how to get there. And 279 batches later, I finally got the flavor I was looking for."
Made in tiny batches (at 50 gallons a go, Dripping Springs creates the smallest batches of commercial spirits in the world), the vodka reflects Kelleher's respect for and admiration of the surrounding land. Dripping Springs artesian water "doesn't have an incredibly clean, flavorless taste, it actually has some character," says Kelleher. In order to maintain the Hill Country nuances of the main ingredient, the brothers built a filtration system that would take out impurities, but leave in as much Texas as possible. What remains -- and is bottled after a five-day production process -- is the ultimate in locavore liquor.
"My thought was always to combine the best elements from all of my favorite vodkas," says Kelleher. "It has a complex flavor palate with lots of different notes. There are chocolate and vanilla notes, and a very long, dry, mineral finish at the end. It's what I was always hoping to achieve."
Dripping Springs Vodka is available throughout Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Louisiana.

Recent reviews
Exceptional 9.4 From 33 reviews
A great hotel, included were Netflix and Amazon prime networks. The rooms are very nice, but a little small. Great for a couple, and bed was comfortable.
We have stayed here before and chose it again because we previously had a good experience. The staff is friendly and breakfast nice. The bed was comfortable and our room overlooked the street. The hotel is conveniently located for the cathedral and médiéval town. We found nice restaurants nearby. I suppose the biggest issue this time was the noise at night due to the proximity of local bars and common areas. It was a weekend.
The breakfast buffet was not what I'm used to in Europe. If you wanted to open the window, it was VERY loud til 3 and 5 in the morning from people walking past the hotel. The owner was very sweet and tried hard.
Cute hotel, staff was super friendly. I recommend staying there if you can.
Very luxurious boutique hotel. Just what my daughter and I needed after cycling 300 km of the Camino. They were very helpful regarding the cycles we rented and luggage that had been forwarded had been forwarded.The location was convenient to visit the Cathedral area and to walk to the airport bus.Breakfast was available in the cafe.I certainly would recommend this hotel in Santiago de Compostela.
This was an amazing place to stay. Beautiful , well stocked room. The staff were amazing , friendly. Went above and beyond to help me. Would highly recommend.
Just stayed for one night but wish it was more. Staff were polite professional and helpful, as we were leaving early for our flight we were offered coffee to take away. Beautiful hotel rooms, bathroom was amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Dori: Lake Stevens teacher given 5 month vacation for being creepy
A former Lake Stevens High School teacher with a series of "deeply troubling" sexual misconduct could not be fired because of protections from the teacher's union, according to a Lake Stevens District spokesperson.
District spokesperson Jamie Taylor told KIRO Radio's Dori Monson that 47-year-old Physical Education teacher Thomas "Chris" Mattingly was investigated at least five times for inappropriate behavior, but never had ample evidence to fire him.
Related: Seattle garbage ruling shows constitution still trumps social causes, Dori says
"Quite honestly we could not terminate him because he was protected by collective bargaining agreements and legal statute," she said. "We did have lengthy conversations following each investigation with our legal counsel and we were told quite simply that we did not have enough proof to be able to have that termination stick in the court of law. So what would have happened is he would have returned to the classroom."
Mattingly resigned in February after an affair with a former student, but Taylor said the PE teacher was also investigated for multiple instances of viewing inappropriate or pornographic material on his school computer, for inappropriate behavior with former students. The Everett Herald detailed the allegations, including email communications about lacy underwear between Mattingly and two former female students.
Mattingly spent 15 years with the district and was suspended on at least two occasions. He was fired as coach of a girls sports team in 2007, but still coached a boys' teams.
Mattingly will continue being paid his more than $84,000 per year salary through the end of the school year because of his accumulated vacation days.
"This is inexcusable," Taylor said of the entire situation. "It's not the norm; it doesn't reflect the values of our district or the character of our employees. We have wonderful staff members and it's unfortunate that this happened."
Officials with the teacher's union declined to talk with Dori on the air. Dori, who is a high school girls basketball coach, said this is another example of teacher's union's claiming to care about the kids but not showing it.
"They couldn't care less about the kids — the teacher's unions," he said. "Because you know what, this guy still hasn't been fired. He resigned … He has gotten a five-month paid vacation for all of this creepiness."
"This is yet another example of how it is impossible to fire, not just bad teachers, but dangerous teachers," he added.

Live a colorful life with Mehandi
Woman is the most beautiful creation of God. In fact, God must have taken leave for several days to perfect the design. God has done his part. Have we done ours to maintain the beauty of woman? By beauty, we mean both inner as well as external beauty. We must admit our inability to render complete justice to God's wonderful creation. However, there is no cause for despair. You can correct everything in life. This website is one such small step towards a correction of this anomaly.
About Mehandi, the dye: Brief history
Colors have always fascinated woman right since her creation. There can be nothing better than using natural colors. You can say mehndi is naturally occurring color. You derive mehandi powder for the leaves of the 'henna' plant. Mehandi comes from the Sanskrit word 'mendhika'. As per ancient Hindu Vedic customs, people used to mix mehandi with turmeric and apply on their palms and other places in the body during rituals such as weddings etc. This is the symbolic 'awakening of the inner light' in a human's body.
Subsequently, mehandi spread to other parts of the world. People in different countries started creating their own designs such as Arabic mehandi designs, Pakistani mehandi designs and so on. However, the basic concept remained the same. It was to awaken the inner consciousness of a person.
Different from tattoos:
The mehandi influence spread to the Western world too. They started to use a variant to the traditional Vedic procedure. Instead of using plant dye, they started using chemical dyes. They use piercing needles to etch the chemical colors onto the body. This has a detrimental effect on the human body resulting in many complications.
Applying a mixture of mehandi and turmeric in its natural pure form does not have any side effects at all. In fact, it cools down the human body to perfectly comfortable temperatures. Secondly, mehandi is a topical application and does not penetrate the skin. It can add beauty to a woman's personality without affecting her health in any way. It is not beautiful.
About Mehandi, the website:
We bring to you the entire goodness of natural mehandi. We advocate the use of naturally occurring dyes and materials as against harmful chemicals. We endeavor to enhance the external beauty of the woman without causing any harm to her inner beauty. In fact, we bring out her inner beauty to the surface aptly complementing her external appearance.
As far as designs are concerned, we have millions of them. We can ensure that no two designs would be similar. In fact, this is our specialty. Our mehandi artists are very skillful. They can shape out beautiful and geometrically symmetrical designs on your hands, feet, and any part of the body you wish. We do this without compromising on the inner beauty. The result would make you look sparkling from outside and make you feel internally resplendent.
You can browse through our entire range of designs in our website www.mehandi.net.

There are a number of important reasons to be tested for HIV. For those who think they may have been exposed to the virus, having a test and receiving a negative result (which means they are not infected with HIV), can put their mind at rest.
If the HIV test is positive, there are a number of things that can be done to help a person cope with the result and lead a healthy life.
* A person who tests positive will at some point need to take antiretroviral treatment to slow down the virus and maintain a healthy immune system. The longer a person remains unaware of their infection, the less likely it is that the treatment will work. Doctors can monitor an HIV positive person's health in order to provide the right treatment regimen at the right time.
* If a person is aware of their HIV infection they can take steps to protect other people. They can practice safer sex and inform previous sexual partners that they may have been at risk of infection.
* Those who test positive who were thinking of starting a family can learn about ways to protect their child from becoming infected with HIV through mother-to-child transmission

Direct mail marketing is a traditional form of awareness and visibility for your business, created using a posting mail service. It involves the production of customised, promotional packages or notices, used as a marketing material to instigate further business development by outreaching to a targeted list of specific, potential targets, addressed directly to the most relevant decision-maker or influential personnel.
A direct mail marketing campaign can be an alternative method of effective and concentrated exposure for your business. It is a platform to integrate a creative twist and it can act as a productive lead generator with a strong return on investment.

Is direct mail marketing still relevant?
Despite the advancements of digital marketing and the wide variety of available tools and technology which we all have at our disposal, direct mail marketing is still an option which can compete with more modern marketing solutions such as email, varieties of advertising, social media, influencer marketing, PR and content. But It is a strategy which can still be enhanced by combining the more traditional marketing technique with a digital flavour for maximisation of resources and results.
What are the benefits of direct mail marketing?
The value of a personal approach can never be underestimated across any form of marketing and direct mail creates the ideal platform to deliver a perfect, personalised message, triggering a full-range of emotive reactions.
People tend to respond better and more considerately to a human-factor. Something which is real, non-automated and has taken genuine effort and thought. You can capture this with your direct mail send-out. This will be appreciated more than a spam item in which someone considers themselves as just one of many.
The minimum requirement for successful marketing of anything is that it gets seen. Without something being seen, nothing progressive can take effect, regardless of how clever, interesting or valuable it is.
The majority of people will check their post. That is something which, even in 2017, is a pretty standard procedure. If something is addressed to you, out of pure intrigue and necessity of it being something of importance, you will open it and digest it in some way, shape or form – even if it might not be immediate.
Therefore, direct mail marketing offers a reliable and more secure visibility conversion compared to some alternative marketing approaches which you can't guarantee have been acknowledged. Ultimately minimising the chances that your expanded efforts could be a waste of time and non-sustainable.
Alternative, larger-scale marketing can often flatter to deceive by providing ambiguous vanity statistics offering a consensus that you may be reaching vast numbers of people (impressions, open rate etc). However, the majority of those can't be justified as relevant or tangible, being that they are not converting into anything of real value.
Direct mail provides the opposite to this. With more control of the outreach and a clear picture of pre-prepared recipients and their responses to your attempts to entice them with tracking and follow-up procedures.
Do Not Use In Isolation
In all cases, marketing efforts never succeed in isolation. It is about exploiting the wide range of options available to you, however, balancing them so that you are not putting more time into your least effective methods, yet still allowing them to tick over for long-term effectiveness. No marketing platform, until 100% qualified, should be ultimately dismissed. But extended efforts into methods which prevent you working on proven ones is a broken formula.
Direct mail marketing may come at a higher, more immediate expense and on a less-practical, smaller-scale to other approaches (due to promotional creation, printing, postage costs and manual implementation). However, these inconveniences can be outweighed by the personal, targeted, detailed and direct approach in terms of positive ROI.
How to implement a direct mail campaign
Click Here to access Your Very Own Direct Mail Marketing Planner
Setting Goals
Before any direct mail marketing campaign, you must initially decide what is the end goal which you want to achieve from the overall project in terms of a recorded, physical response and/or alternative metrics: Awareness, traffic, social following, event attendance, leads, demonstrations, sales etc You need to consider the ideal scenario and minimum requirement for the end results which you consider important/relevant for the campaign to be regarded as a success. Discuss these as a team and record the expectations for later reference.
It is important to consider your budget allowance for the project and this will reflect your realistic, overall target and end goal. You also must take into account the profit margin of one sale for your business and the lifetime of that customer acquisition. Or alternatively, the longer-term value of non-definitive awareness and what is that worth to your business and brand going forward.
How many sales are needed to break even from your send-out? Or how important it is to get your name noticed in the saturation of your market? How big is your target pool? Do you want to test the water to some extent before committing heavy financial investment into a full-project. You can then manage your expectations realistically and construct your outreach around these figures.

This is a crucial stage of your direct mail marketing campaign and without complete research and analysis, your whole project will be overall less-effective and an in-balance of effort and resources. In simplistic terms, if you do not identify accurately who your ideal customer is, then you are not going to convert successfully as you will approach the wrong people. It is this research being performed correctly which will provide the advanced ROI from the project.
Unlike some other forms of wider-scale marketing, the specific, detailed effort which is going into these deliveries is far more than what would be for scheduling an email, so-to-say. Therefore, there is more relative 'risk' on each send-out as it creates a higher cost-per-acquisition.
There is no need to over-complicate this procedure, all you are doing is finding people who fit the criteria of needing what you provide. Breaking this down by taking into account a range of demographical factors to reveal as close as possible, the perfect identity in an ideal scenario.
Analysing your own current customer base, using a customer analysis breakdown, outlining the specifications and establishing the types of customer which are the most common or maybe, more importantly, showing less regulatory of churn.
You can do this in the following ways:
Industry –
Which industry does your highest percentage of business come from
Location –
Where are your clients located? Are they global or do you only operate in one country, therefore, where more commonly is suitable in that country
Budget –
Which companies would suit your product/service price-range
Number of employees –
What size of company would you usually look to work with or sell to
Niche –
What specifications of the businesses in the chosen industry will respond most positively to your planned proposal
Job title –
Which job position do you do business with or which is the most responsive department? Also, who is going to be able to make a decision on your offering?
Creating Your Outreach list
You can then gain access to pre-made lists of certain industries or job types. Obtain the data and clean it manually, according to your ideal customer match, using LinkedIn for reference.
Create a spreadsheet with the breakdown where you can mark the responding targets. This will be a longer process but will enhance your results in the end and prevent you wasting money on resources which could be channelled more accordingly. Remember, it is not a short-term fix, you are using a trial and error approach until you get it perfect and this takes time.
Constructing The Direct Mail Packages
What business message are you presenting in your conversation to the prospects – what do you want them to know about:
- A Product (feature) launch,
- Unique offer,
- A discount code,
- Free trial period,
- Demonstration invite,
- Partnership opportunity,
- Free sample,
- Event invite,
- Thank you message
- Reminder
What direction do you want to take people in from receiving the mail:
- In-store,
- Specific web page,
- Phone-line,
- Social media
- Event attendance
- Longer-term psychological awareness
Mail creation:
- Image/branding – ensure clear and presentable logo implementation for obvious identity
- Colour scheme – be sure to keep in-line with your brand colours for full effect
- Message visibility – you have gone to a lot of effort, make sure that your message is not hidden and is easily accessible
- Memorable moment – be creative with your mail, you can send anything you want to grab attention. Use technology or special effects to make a memorable marketing moment
- Packaging originality – you can add more intrigue to your parcel by decorating it in a way which makes sure it is opened on arrival
Split Testing:
If you have multiple ideas for the design and message of your package, or if you have a wide range of ideal customer profiles, then split-testing is a good idea to guide the process. Split your data into fair divisions and apply a set to each strategy. Monitor the results of the feedback from each and come back to the table to apply a finished mail send-out for the ongoing targets.
Following up on your direct mail attempt
In a perfect world, your targets will automatically respond to your efforts in the way which you have directed them to. Be that with your call to action: call us, check out, here is the link, follow us here, sign up now etc. But in all honesty, the people and businesses which you prospect are going to be extremely busy and at different stages of their progression and down-time.
It will take days, weeks and months for many genuinely interested parties to respond and it will be the case for so many that it is simply bad timing and they are too involved in other projects themselves at that point.
No matter how appealing your package is, it is impossible that everyone will; come across it, digest it, or react to it immediately. Maybe not even for a considerable time period. That is not to say they are not interested, but other priorities take precedence. A nudge in the right direction from the initial point of contact is required.
Essentially, you are heating up a lead. Giving yourself a foot in the door and an initial awareness to follow-up with. How long to wait until you reach out will vary for each individual project, as there are different levels of content intensity to get through. For event attendance, it will need to be more instant and compliant with the deadline.
Ways to follow up on your direct mail:
Create an overall prospecting attack, built around your direct mail send-out as the catalyst in the following steps –
This can be an accessible, less direct way of reaching your target and converting them. With the initial awareness in mind, seeing a notification on a social platform such as; a follow, like, mention, add or connection opportunity, can be a way to remind and direct them in the secondary funnel of the pipeline.
By dropping an email to the recipient, you can remind them of the proposition and allow them to respond in a convenient way or offer contextual value to their thought process – ie "Not interested, thanks", "Just too busy right now", "No budget for this", "Will keep you on record for later", "Have a current provider, contact me in 6 months". This can give direction or closure to your results.
If there is still no response, the lead can be passed on to the sales team to pick up the phone. Cold calling can be a tough environment to get your message across. However, now you have a self-assisted reason to be calling, it is no longer 'cold' and may be better received by the gatekeeper.
How Whoisvisiting.com used Direct Mail Marketing to expose their white label offering
At Whoisvisiting.com, we decided to use direct mail marketing to assist our efforts in launching and raising awareness of our new white label platform.
We thought that as a brand new feature, we could provide a temporary exclusivity factor with a direct mail promotional package and invite selected companies to join as a partnership programme.
1. New product awareness – letting a wide variety of agencies know we are now offering a full white label platform 2. Demonstration bookings – arranging platform demonstrations with key decision makers of agencies with view to partnership agreement As a new product and with no previous data to go from, setting targets was quite a tough ask for this campaign. However, we decided to gather a sample of 500 outreach prospects, as it aligned with our budget allocation and would be a large enough sample to gather respectable results and impressive awareness.
It also meant we would only need a relatively low % of conversions for our costs to be recovered and a strong ROI to be achieved. We were well aware that many of the packages which we sent would not necessarily convert to demonstrations or conversions immediately, but it would provide a solid foundation to a large range of potential, future business prospects that we are here. We were looking at the bigger picture as a new provider wanting to become established longer-term.
Identifying ideal customer
Knowing that the type of customer who uses the Whoisvisiting software is extremely broad, the industry identification for the white label was a lot more channelled with marketing and advertising agencies/SEO specialists being the main targets. With our software being a global product, we were not restricted by location in any way, only that we wanted to start with the United Kingdom and this would be the most logical place to begin, with a large enough target pool. It would also reduce overall costs due to more reasonable postage charges.
After collecting the data of 1000's of marketing agencies in the United Kingdom, we spent a lot of time simplifying it to our specific needs, using logical due-diligence. Using LinkedIn and viewing the websites we were able to distinguish the stronger options from the less-appropriate.
With it being our first send out attempt to a new audience, it was important to include a small variety range of agency types so we could assess if there was a pattern of agencies which responded better than others, in terms of size, employee range and different services offered.
Then by checking out the employee data on linkedIn, we could find the name of the most appropriate contact. In this case, we were hoping to reach the Founder/Co-founder, Director, Marketing Manager etc who we believed were the ideal point of contact due to their decision-making ability on white label partnerships. Finally, we gathered the company address from the website contact page.
Direction and mail creation
For Whoisvisiting, the physical aim of the mail was to direct these decision-makers to a pre-prepared landing page, inviting them for a demonstration of the white label offering. Our mail creation was only the initial stage of the whole project and was in-line with two other steps. Firstly, receiving a slim-line mail package with the following message:
We wanted to create a marketing message with a memorable impact and a fun personalisation. On the alternative side, we provided the recipient with a UV torch light to shine on a specific part of the card.
This then revealed a secret domain, complying with the specially chosen, personalisation theme. A video then greeted the target on the landing page, delivering a more defined message of the offering and inviting for a demonstration in their own time.
Our follow-up approach was instigated by using our own product, Whoisvisiting. We were able to set up a trigger alert notification on our secret landing page to identify the businesses which had arrived on the platform, but not always booked for a demonstration straight away.
Passing over these leads to our sales team, they were able to call the prospects and manually book them in, now that they had time to digest the idea.
Full Campaign Results
|Mail Packages Sent

This project is currently on-going but overall, the direct mail marketing, combined with the digital approach, has allowed us to make a strong and fast impact, with successful conversions and broad awareness which we were able to scale at a realistic cost.

How SixSix 95 used Direct Mail Marketing to enhance their Brand Awareness, sales; and increase in the number of enquiries per day
The Used Racking Company is a successful supplier of storage solutions to companies in the UK & Northern Ireland.
Primarily, they use Google AdWords to reach their target market but a single click can cost £14.00. They were getting customers to their website but drop-out rates were high; their website does not offer e-commerce, so customer details were only gained if a customer completed a contact form, emailed or picked up the telephone. They approached SixSix 95, the lead generation specialists, and asked them to come up with a solution to increase enquiries and conversion rates.
SixSix 95 chose a direct mail outreach involving utilising postcard marketing alongside website visitor tracking for two purposes: 1. Brand awareness – to increase the touch points with the potential customers 2. Increased sales – time-based offer, to encourage customers to purchase
The act of sending postcards to reach your target market in 2017, might be something which feels a bit old-fashioned with so many advanced, technical, marketing tools available. But postcard marketing offers an affordable, trackable, versatile and direct approach.
We analysed the market to pick the most cost-effective IP identification software, which was Whoisvisiting. This software can identify the names of the companies who are visiting a website, even if they haven't completed a form.
For the initial aim of brand awareness, businesses who were identified visiting the homepage were delivered a postcard of generic awareness –
However, for a more intense, sales driven campaign, they added trigger functionalities, using the Whoisvisiting software, to the specific product and contact pages. This then notified when companies landed and were viewing certain information.
These companies were then sent a postcard, matching the unique page and directed at instigating a reaction with a specific, time-based offer. Here is an example of a postcard sent to visitors on the Racking product page –
On the back, a clear message outlined the immediacy of the time-based offer and how to follow-up with a call to action –
This was implemented across the full-range of products on the website, for response with the appropriate postcard –
This combination of new and traditional, direct mail marketing methods proved extremely cost-effective and the results were exceptional, with the client noting:
➢ A 15% increase in sales
➢ A significant increase in the number of enquiries per day
The Used Racking Company continues to use a combination of Digital (WhoIsVisiting,) and Print (Postcards) as a core part of their lead generation activities. Providing the ability to capitalise on their expensive AdWords click-through.

Nobody tells a story better than Jesus Christ! In Luke chapter 15, Jesus tells this parable about a son who did an offensive and unthinkable thing to his father in the culture of his time – he asked his father for all of his inheritance in advance of his father's passing. To ask such a thing was the same as him telling his father, "Dad! I would rather live my life as if you were already gone – so can I have everything I'll get when you're dead!?" As crazy as it sounds the father in Jesus' story generously responds to his son's unthinkable request in an even more unthinkable way – he gives his son every last penny of his inheritance; to live his life in whatever way he wanted.
Jesus went on to say that this son left home immediately (because everyone knows you can't get the kicks you want in life under your own father's roof), and then spent all that his father gave him on every urge, every pleasure, and every experience he could grab for himself. It didn't take long for him to lose it all – leaving him broke, friendless, lost and without any resources. Just to survive, he was forced to slop pigs (something no self-respecting Jewish boy would ever allow himself to do), and he became so hungry that he wished he could steal some of the pig food to fill his own empty stomach. In the moment he realized that pigs were better off than he was he began thinking – really thinking about his life. He concluded, "Well, I've disrespected my father in the way I've lived my life. I've shamed my father, and I've shamed myself. I'm disqualified to be loved as my Dad's son, let alone even treated with the same kindness he shows his lowest grunt workers. I've ruined every possibility of ever being restored and reconciled back to my Dad's love."
Here's an interesting question, worthy of some consideration. Have you begun thinking – really thinking about your life? Have you ever arrived at the same conclusion as this son in Jesus' story who believed, "I've ruined every possibility of ever being restored?" Ever felt like you've completely disqualified yourself from God's love? Ever thought, "Of course God loves everyone, it's all true for everyone but me!" Ever thought, "The mistake I've just committed disqualifies me from God's blessing!"? If you ever find yourself so lost in the mistakes you've made that you think, "I've ruined the possibility of being restored to God's love" – you need to hear what God says in Hosea 2: 14 – 23.
In the next posts I want to explore the question – how does God choose to respond to people who have disqualified themselves from His love? I think the answers we uncover go a long way to help us become people who run to God rather than from God before, during, and after our acts of sin.

Kennedy Stewart's dream of Parliament accepting online petitions is now a reality, and the first people to sign up are two Burnaby residents hoping to ban shock collars for pets.
Gwendy and Alfie Williams have unsuccessfully petitioned Parliament in the past to criminalize shock collars, which they say are a cruel and ineffective way to train dogs. This time, however, the husband and wife are hoping to gather support from across the country, now that Parliament is accepting online petitions.
Trending Stories
"We think it's a great idea," Gwendy said. "We think it's going to really bring Canadians a voice."
The government's website for online petitions went live on Friday, and Alfie said it was easy to use and there are safeguards in place to keep frivolous petitions out. For example, the petitioners must find an MP to sponsor their cause. In this case, Stewart is sponsoring the shock collar petition. There's also a French version of the petition in the works, and the Williams have a link to share online, now that the petition is live.
"I think it's going to give us a lot more chance to gain more signatures and get more support across Canada. We're very isolated trying to get people's signatures as individuals," Gwendy said.
People don't realize when they sign petitions on the Internet that they have no standing with government, Gwendy added.
"This new one will be recognized by the government," she said.
Stewart's motion for Parliament to accept e-petitions passed in January of 2014, a rare feat for an opposition backbencher.
"I think it's been a quiet reform, but it will be a significant reform as a Canadian really catch on to what's happening here. They have an easy and accessible way to have their views presented in Parliament," Stewart said from Ottawa.
Under the old rules, people had to collect a minimum of 25 signatures on paper and find an MP to table the petition in the House of Commons. Now, if there are 500 signatures, the government has 45 days to respond in writing, Stewart explained.
Stewart said e-petitions have the capacity to shake up how the government does business, and he's waiting for the first one with 100,000 or 200,000 signatures, which will force Parliament to take action.
"I don't think a government can afford to ignore a petition with a couple thousand signatures on it from verified voters," he said.

With the apparent stance of the Academic Staff Union of Universities on non resumption until the agreement between them and the Federal government has been honored, the Federal Government in a re-conciliatory move removed the ultimatum earlier placed on lecturers to resume otherwise their appointments would be terminated. FG has also provided proof of disbursement of N200billion to the educational trust account which was one of the criteria earlier given by lecturers for resumption.Addressing newsmen yesterday, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Dr Doyin Okupe, showed a letter with reference number GVD/DGO/GEN/MP/05/151 which was addressed to the Auditor-General of the Federation and titled: "Confirmation of the Execution of your Mandate for the Credit of Account No…Revitalization of Universities Infrastructure Account." Continue...
The letter stated: "I write to confirm the execution of the following mandates by the Central Bank of Nigeria for funding of the above mentioned account as follows:
Mandate FD/LP2013/40/1/30/DF – 129,300,000,000.00
Mandate FD/F124/Vol XII/120/DF – 20,700,000,000.00
Mandate FD/LP2013/40/1/DF – 50,000,000,000.0
"I wish to further confirm that the available balance in the aforementioned account is N200,000,000,000.00 (Two Hundred Billion Naira Only).
"Please, accept the assurances of my best regards."
As regards cancellation of the ultimatum, Doyin Okupe said about 90% of the lecturers had resumed nationwide so the talk of deadline resumption has dropped.

Shaun Edwards, Andy Goodway
Shane Cooper
This match marked the beginning of the tour for New
Zealand and it would also be the full debut of Steve Ella for Wigan. The
only try of the first half came when David Stephenson sent Shaun Edwards
over and he added three goals for a 10-2 lead with a Vaun O'Callaghan
penalty being the only response from the tourists. Edwards would turn from
hero to villain just three minutes after the re-start when his error, not
helped by the wet weather, gifted Shane Cooper a score for 10-8. New Zealand
put the pressure on but a superb kicking game from Ella offered regular
relief and it was from one of his kicks that O'Callaghan made an error and
Andy Goodway pounced to score from a kick ahead towards the try line.
Stephenson converted for 14-8 and that's how it would finish.

Abstract by Logan Zick
I created this drawing with a 36 by 24 paper with a variety of markers, crayons, and a dream. That dream was to visualize the beauty of my own personality. I used a type of drawing called counties line drawing. I really didn't have a major plan when making this I just let my imagination go with this. I really like the way that it turned out even though there seams to be no straight story in the picture, but that is the point I wanted to get across that there is no point and that it is just feelings.

Can you help? You may work for, or know of a company looking for ways to support the community; you might consider a personal legacy; or you might, like the founder Thomas Williams nearly 300 years ago, be in a position to make a donation to the Trust right now. It doesn't have to be a fortune (though that would be most welcome!)
Raising capital for the trust :
– £100 can help with special travel needs
– £500 will help a future village Doctor to buy stethoscope & lab equipment.
– £1,000 will support our next generation of farmers and stable managers through Kingston Maurward.
The Trust's income is derived from the dividends and interest yields of invested capital. Percentage yields have been low in recent years, whilst the costs incurred by students have risen substantially as fees have risen and government has withdrawn funding.
So today's Trustees are seeking to bolster the Trust's funds, to raise additional capital and to generate more income for grants in the future.
If you can help in any way, please get in touch with the Treasurer & Trustee John Cleave on 01929 471463.
The Trust is a fully registered Charity and makes annual returns to the Charity Commission. Its aims, objectives and achievements are available on request.

Email Marketing – How 1 Short Email Can Make More Money Than Most People Make In A Week
If there is one crucible lesson that I have learned in my 5 years of marketing online, it is that the email mailing list is the most crucial asset of any online business owner. Some marketers remain stubborn and decide not to build a mailing listing, citing reasons like their niche is not 'suitable' for it, or that they make more sales without building a list. It's total rubbish! Any marketer with the ability of sending email follow-ups to their subscribers is always going to make more money over the long-term than if he did not build a list and simply let visitors leave their page without capturing their contact information.
It is possible to make thousands with an email to your list. Yes, just one email! I've personally spent about 10 minutes crafting an email and sending it out to my list. A few hours later, hundreds of dollars fill up my Clickbank account with Swiss clockwork efficiency. And this happens on a regular basis! It's like a money machine that I can turn on anytime I want.
Here is how you can write a short email that generates tons of money:
1. Make Readers Curious
Get your subscribers curious to open your emails every time with powerful, curiosity inciting subject lines. Do not be totally misleading, but do not be totally boring either! I've seen some marketers who are supposedly 'big name' marketers with great reputations in forums, but their click-through rates are horrendous. How do I know their click-through rate? Some of them send YouTube videos to their list, and I can see how many views their videos got. It's nothing to shout about! This shows that top marketers are just 'top marketers' because of the façade they create. You can emulate them.
2. Write 'Addictive' Subject Lines
The key to getting subscribers curious is to write 'addictive' subject lines. Your subject lines must be so interesting that your subscribers will be keen to open them every time and look forward to your emails!
3. Use Neat Formatting
Keep each line of your email to no more than 60 characters to keep it neat and easy to read. The more subscribers who read through the whole of your email, the better response rate you will get.
Connect With What They Want
Promote products that your subscribers want. You can find this out easily by sending them a simple survey. When you find products that convert well for you, add them in your automatic autoresponder follow-up series.

"Traditionally there is a fierce rivalry" – Arsene Wenger ready for tough game against Stoke
After another hard-fought victory over Southampton a couple of days ago, Arsenal are now back in contention for the top-four spot, requiring wins in each of their remaining fixtures while hoping for someone else's misfortune.
A trip to Stoke now awaits and Arsene Wenger is no mood to be complacent ahead of what he expects to be a tough game, he told Arsenal's official website.
"Traditionally there is a fierce rivalry and they had always a very direct game against us."
"Overall, I must say as well that they have had good teams. Stoke are now regular participants in the Premier League for years, and that means that anybody who goes there is in trouble."
"We have to show character again. We know we have to play to win the games, so let's keep the focus on the way we want to play and on our team spirit."

San Francisco transplants Christine and Steve Schillinger enjoy German Village's red bricks.
In German Village, it's easy to be drawn outdoors in the summer. Restaurateurs open their brick patios for open-air dining. Shop owners move their merchandise outside for sidewalk sales. And artists perform concerts and dramas in the park.
Homeowners, too, deck out their front porches, fill their window boxes with flowers, transform their intimate backyards and create pocket gardens at their historic brick homes. Just ask village residents Christine and Steve Schillinger, who moved from California to Columbus three years ago and have fully embraced their historic home's outdoor living spaces.
"Although we're two miles from Downtown, it feels like we're secluded with all our trees and the park nearby," says Christine, who enjoys hosting dinner parties on their home's tree-lined back patio or relaxing with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine on their wide front porch, which overlooks the 23-acre Schiller Park.
The Schillingers moved to the village in 2015 after living for years in the San Francisco Bay area. There, the couple had purchased what they thought was their forever home, which was complete with a pool. But Steve received an offer to become the chief executive officer of Salon Lofts, which is headquartered in Downtown Columbus.
In their search for a new home, the Schillingers toured many of the city's neighborhoods before they discovered German Village's charm.
"There were no bricks in California, so to see brick throughout an entire community was a beautiful thing," says Christine. They ended up purchasing a Queen Anne home with a gabled roof and slate shingles. The home was originally built in 1897 for Charles Frank and had recently been renovated with a two-story addition, a back patio, a pool with a fountain and new landscaping.
When the Schillingers moved in, they added their personal touches to the exterior starting with the front porch where they painted the oversized front door red for a pop of color. They furnished the porch with a black swing and a bistro set to complement the black-and-white, graphic-patterned tile floor and the large, arched front window that's trimmed in black. Layers of both rounded and squared boxwood hedges, in addition to multiple azaleas, create a lush transition between the porch and the sidewalk. Along the street, a large maple tree adds character and shade to the front lawn.
In back, more trees and shrubs create an intimate park-like setting for entertaining, as well as viewing from the addition's great room and upstairs master suite. A pergola-covered dining terrace extends from this addition. Painted charcoal gray, the pergola is trimmed with strings of market lights. Four round columns help define the space, yet provide open views to the landscaped backyard. Broad steps lead down to a formal limestone patio featuring a rectangular fountain pool with eight crisscrossing water sprays.
A low boxwood hedge frames the patio, and spring-flowering dogwood and magnolia trees add further interest. A wood-planked fence, also in charcoal gray, encloses the backyard and features an attractive trellis detail along the top edge. A row of European hornbeams creates an additional buffer of privacy along the fence. Two other backyard highlights include an allée of additional hornbeams along a side path leading to a gate and a smaller rear patio and pergola covered with wisteria vines.
Besides a few squirrels in the attic, Christine says the biggest challenge with their home has been the constant upkeep that comes with an old home.
"It's become our hobby," she says. But they have willingly embraced the move from their 3-year-old California home to this 120-year-old house. Future projects include creating a stained-glass window for the front door and adding some summer-blooming hydrangeas to the front landscape.
This summer, the couple is enjoying hosting summer barbeques or inviting friends to join them for a picnic dinner and Shakespeare play, which is staged in the park just across the street.
In 2016, they opened their home for the German Village Haus Und Garten Tour. And, for the past two years, they've hosted pre-Tour dinners including one with a Bavarian theme honoring the Oktoberfest, which years ago was held across the street in the park. Last year was the park's 150th anniversary, and Christine says they celebrated its history by recreating a German beer garden in their backyard—complete with tables, white linens, blue runners, wheat husk centerpieces and beer steins. Christine works as an instructional designer, so she welcomes these events as a creative outlet.
"It's my chance to get artsy," she explains.
This spring, the Schillingers brought home an English Labrador retriever puppy named Haley, who is coaxing them outdoors even more for play time at the park, Sunday walks to Jeni's ice cream shop and an occasional splash in the backyard pool.
"[The pool] is only two-and-a-half-feet deep, but that doesn't stop her from playing in it," says Christine.

Journal #2
On Thursday February 9, 2012, at Mario's Bowling and Entertainment Palace 7pm, the two teams that played were Scotia Trust and Commonwealth Bank. I did like my experience at the alley it was a great one, that night was another nail-biter for Team Scotia Trust. They reigned victorious by upsetting Commonwealth Bank the number two team in the league by winning two games and losing one, pushing them to the number three position. Barbara Scott turned in a stellar performance by bowling her highest game of the season 180 and she was assisted by Verlene Harris, who helped won the game that night. The final scores of that night, was Scotia Trust with 300 points and Commonwealth Bank with 270 points. What I didn't like about my experience was the fact that the arrangement was not organized at all. The game was supposed to start promptly at 7pm but they couldn't, because most of the team mates didn't arrived as yet. So unfortunately, the game had to start at 8pm, for most of the team mates being so late that was really like an inconvenience. My thoughts on how this event could be educational for students, by teaching you teamwork. This sport would help you learn to work with teammates, both good and bad ones. Basketball
The Queen's College Comets kept their undefeated season in tact with a 62-54 win over the Kingsway Academy Saints on Monday February 13, 2012 at the Kendal Isaacs gym. The Comets trailed 47-45 late in the fourth quarter. Edajh Fawkes led the Comets with a team of 22 points while Daejour Adderley finished with 20. Adderley tied the game at 47 with a pair from the line and followed with a steal and layup. Fawkes followed with four in a row to give the Comets a 53-47 lead which they never relinquished. Fawkes brought the Comets crowd to their feet in the game's moments when he weaved through traffic; ball faked defenders on both sides of...

Construction officially began on the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Safety netting suspended under the floor of the bridge from end to end saved the lives of nineteen workers; however, ten of the eleven deaths on the job occurred when a section of scaffold fell through the net. The bridge opened in 1937 and was, until 1964, the longest suspension bridge main span in the world.

After putting in the blog on the Southend Airport, a friend of mine asked if I knew of any more.
Well, I am going to look at a later time, however, I can now note 3 in good condition.
1) XH558 – Bruntingthorpe – this one should fly again soon – Website
2) XL426 – Southend – This one does fast taxi's – Website
3) XM655 – Wellesbourne – This one does fast taxi's too – Website
So I am really happy now that three of these glorious planes are at least in a condition to perform to the crowds. It would be even nicer if all three could return to flight. I suppose only time will tell, now that XH558 is about to fly in airshows, the other two may see it viable. I can almost see it now, a flying delta shape made up of 3 Vulcans, trailed by the red arrows. WOW. And for a complete flight of fancy, how about some Concordes.!!

enmo's IoT.Over.Beacon technology enables new and valuable use cases for the STMicroelectronics Nucleo and SensorTile devices.
So how do you use our IoT.Over.Beacon technology in your STMicroelectronics IoT devcies? You merely integrate our IoT.Over.Beacon library in your firmware.
You write your firmware as you do today, using the System Workbench (a free IDE for STM32 devices). When you want to output data from ST IoT devcies to a phone, you call our library. You give the data to output to our library and it automatically handles transmitting in IoT.Over.Beacon mode; it will do a call-back when data has been read by the phone. There is no charge for our library.
The content on the landing page you created in the enmo Platform is automatically displayed in the App, including a graph and table of the logged sensor data (if you've added these elements to your landing page). You can even push captured IoT data to an Endpoint and then populate content on your landing page from an Endpoint. Need to revise the content on your landing page? Then change it in our platform and iterate until you're satisfied.
Screen shots of an example App with pages showing data captured by an IoT device are shown below (these were created in the enmo Platform).
But what if you want to do a quick prototype, what if you don't have time to develop your own full-up firmware?
Then you can use our starter firmwares. You can just program our starter firmwares into your Nucleo or SensorTile devices and immediately start developing your solution. Use our starter firmwares and our Development Apps and start capturing IoT data in minutes!
For step-by-step directions on how to use these starter firmwares, please see our STMicroelectronics recipes.
The different starter firmwares we currently offer is shown in the table below (there is no charge for any of these).
|Ordering Code
|Data logger
IoT.Over.Beacon transmission initiated by user via button push
|Nucleo starts logging data when button is pushed (all 8 sensor values are stored once per second)
Nucleo stops logging data when button is pushed again – it then starts broadcasting in IoT.Over.Beacon mode
When phone comes into range, all stored data is read by phone – after which, SensorTile returns to step 1
User must push button again to start data logging again
50 seconds of data can be stored by this starter firmware, after which data is overwritten (FIFO)
|Data logger
IoT.Over.Beacon transmission occurs upon SensorTile detecting stopping movement
|SensorTile starts logging data when SensorTile is moved for at least 10-seconds (all 8 sensor values are stored once per second)
SensorTile broadcasts in IoT.Over.Beacon mode and stops data logging when movement has stopped for at least 5-seconds
50 seconds of data can be stored by this starter firmware, after which data is overwritten (FIFO)
|Source Code for Above Firmwares
|enmo's source code for the above firmwares will soon be available on GitHub. Engineers can use them as a starting point to develop their own firmware for the Nucleo and SensorTile. Contact us for updated availability.
|IoT.Over.Beacon library
|IoT.Over.Beacon library for System Workbench for STM32 IDE.
Call this library from your firmware when you want to output data from a Nucleo or SensorTile to a phone.
Cooking Time
< 5-mins for programming enmo starter firmware into the Nucleo or SensorTile
~15-mins to setup the enmo Platform with rules, content, etc.
Nucleo Ingredients
