Dissertation Proposal Writing: 5 Essential Aspects
When it comes to writing your dissertation proposal, there are some important factors that you must always take into consideration. Not everyone that you come across will be able to perhaps mention all of them, especially your teachers. There are times when teachers basically give you the simple stuff, then you are expected to use that to figure out the rest of what you need to do. This is also what happens in the course of proposal writing for your dissertation.
You are usually given a supervisor to help you get through this task very easily. For this reason, you can consider talking to them about some of the issues that you are not able to understand about this task. In terms of the proposal, there are important aspects that have to feature, or your work will be considered unsatisfactory. The following is a list of 5 of the most important elements of your paper, which most teachers will be looking for:
- Choose the correct tense
- Have an appropriate title
- Impressive introduction
- Outline the research process
- Fitting conclusion
Choose the correct tense
One area where most students start failing simple tasks like this one, is their inability to get the correct tense necessary. It is important that you spend as much time as possible polishing up on this. Your proposal is supposed to be written in the future tense, not present or past.
Have an appropriate title
In as much as it is just a proposal, it is still important that you spend as much time as possible working on the title. You have to ensure you look into this, so that when the time comes, you can easily get anyone who reads it to appreciate the kind of work you are doing.
Impressive introduction
The introduction is where you make or break your paper. It is through here that you will be able to get all the work a good perspective. Your teacher in particular will be looking towards this, so that you can highlight the work you need to do.
Outline the research process
Have a good outline for the work that you are doing. This will in most cases help you get a lot of work into perspective.
Fitting conclusion
Finally, write the best conclusion for this task. A good conclusion is the best way to complete the work that you are doing, and score good results too.

Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
A recent study on strokes has some offered up some promising news.
Stroke deaths among African-American children have gone down in past years. In fact, the disparities between Black and white deaths were narrowed by two-thirds.
What caused the decrease? It's believed that performing ultrasonographic screening and blood transfusions on African-American children with sickle cell anemia have reduced the risks of children dying from strokes by 90 percent. According to Medscape, sickle cell disease, which overwhelmingly impacts African-American children, is the main cause of strokes among Black youth.
Medscape reported that "when investigators compared the rate of ischemic stroke deaths between white and black children between the years 1999 and 2007, as compared with the rate during the period from 1988 to 1998, they found that the increased risk of dying among the African American children had been reduced by more than half."
Sickle cell anemia is not the only cause of ischemic strokes — which occur when an artery to the brain is blocked — among younger people. Just last year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a report that found that while strokes in older people were slowly decreasing, incidents of ischemic strokes were sharply up for younger men and women, and even for children. While they didn't have concrete reasons to explain why this increase was happening, they hypothesized that higher rates of obesity, poor eating and lack of exercise might play a factor.
Ischemic strokes make up 87 percent of all stroke cases here in the U.S. Some common warning signs are:
—Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg, often on only one side of the body
—Sudden confusion and trouble speaking or understanding others
—Sudden difficulty seeing
—Sudden trouble walking, feelings of dizziness and loss of balance or coordination
—Sudden severe headache of unknown cause
*If you are having any of these symptoms, call 911 immediately*

Snowden Leak Prompted "Considerable Public Interest," Says FISA Court
Snowden Leak Prompted "Considerable Public Interest," Says FISA Court
Categories: Intelligence, Leaks, Oversight
The leak by Edward Snowden of a classified order issued by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) helped to arouse significant public interest, said the Court itself in an opinion issued today. Further disclosures are now justified, the Court indicated.
"The unauthorized disclosure in June 2013 of a Section 215 order, and government statements in response to that disclosure, have engendered considerable public interest and debate about Section 215," wrote FISC Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV in an opinion today regarding an ACLU motion for release of prior Court opinions concerning Section 215 of the USA Patriot Act.
Judge Saylor directed that any opinions not already subject to litigation under the Freedom of Information Act should now be reviewed for declassification.
"[Further] Publication of FISC opinions relating to this provision would contribute to an informed debate," Judge Saylor added. "Publication would also assure citizens of the integrity of this Court's proceedings."
Yesterday, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper also acknowledged that the leaks, while damaging, had triggered an important debate.
"I think it's clear that some of the conversations this has generated, some of the debate, actually needed to happen," DNI Clapper said. "If there's a good side to this, maybe that's it." ("Clapper: Snowden case brings healthy debate; more disclosures to come" by Ken Dilanian, Los Angeles Times, September 12.)
But if the unauthorized disclosure of a FISA Court order generated debate that "needed to happen," that means that the original classification of the order had precluded a necessary public debate. If so, it follows that a thorough reconsideration of classification policy and practice is due.

New Mexico Photographer Discriminates Against Lesbians: Liberals Zero, Conservatives One, Libertarians Full Marks

New Mexico Photographer Discriminates Against Lesbians: Liberals Zero, Conservatives One, Libertarians Full Marks
by Walter E. Block
September 13, 2013
A homosexual couple plans for their marriage or "commitment" ceremony. They go to a photographer asking her to memorialize this important event in their lives. She refuses to take pictures for them based on her Christian beliefs. The couple sues. The New Mexico Supreme court rules in August 2013 that the photographer has discriminated against the gay couple and is liable for damages.
What is the reaction to this state of affairs on the part of the "usual suspects?"
For our friends on the left, this court finding is the paradigm case of civil rights. It should be illegal for anyone to discriminate against anyone else on any of the usual grounds: race, sex, sexual preference, age, nationality, mental or physical handicap, etc. If these "progressives" had their way, quite a few more criteria would be added. It is unfair, also, they aver, to discriminate against ugly people, short people, fat people, tall people, people with criminal backgrounds, people with poor credit ratings, atheists (but certainly not Christians) the list goes on and on.
Curiously, well, ok, not really so curiously, these pinkos would confine such legislation to the marketplace. That is, they would not apply it to personal relations. For, if they did, then the decision as to whom to marry, befriend, would come under governmental scrutiny. The last thing these socialists would appreciate is to have the government peer over their shoulders at their dinner party invitee list. There is also more than a little bit of hypocrisy involved, as they favor the idea of inner city public schools, but would never in a million years send their own children to such institutions of "learning."
But why should non discrimination laws apply, only, to the market and not to our personal lives? If we have a right not to be discriminated against, why should this only apply to the boardroom, the office, the factory floor, and not to our bedroom, living room, back yard barbeque? It is wrong to murder, but it is equally wrong to do so in a commercial or personal space. Rape should of course be against the law, but this applies to both our homes and our stores. Curious. One wonders why they would not force a black owned firm to serve a member of the KKK. Well, logical consistency is not their strong suit.
Our friends on the right are not much better on this divisive issue. The equally despicable conservatives accept the leftish notion that it is quite alright to legally compel store owners to serve members of all racial groups. After all, if you are open to the public, you are open to the public and may not exclude anyone. That is, this applies to businesses that sell groceries and restaurant meals, rent cars and apartments, provide movies and sporting events. They draw the line, however, at the case under discussion, where a Christian photographer does not want to provide service for a gay couple. Presumably, they would allow the owner of a bed and breakfast emporium to pick and choose customers, but only because of the personal nature of the relationship. But all bets would be off for the big hotel or restaurant. This is a distinction without a moral difference. If it is wrong to discriminate in such a manner, then it is wrong to discriminate.
It is only libertarians who take a principled stand on this issue. People who espouse this philosophy believe in freedom of association. All dealings, whether personal or professional, should be made on a voluntary basis. No one should be forced to associate with anyone else against his will. The only problem with slavery was that it violated this basic law of free association. Otherwise, it was really not all that bad. You got to pick cotton in the sunshine; what could be healthier? You were fed gruel, at no cost. You were given free accommodation. The only problem was, you were compelled to undertake this relationship at the point of a gun, and could not reject this association. Sort of like our present laws against discrimination.
A strict opposition to discrimination would also logically imply compulsory bi-sexuality. For male homosexuals are evil; they preclude a romantic relationship with half the human race. The same goes for wicked lesbians. They too will not engage in romance with half the human race. But the same applies to male heterosexuals. Need I mention that for them, a personal relationship with half the human race is anathema? Nor can we leave out straight females. When is the last time you saw any of them embrace a loving relationship with half the human race? Never, that is when. It is only bi-sexuals who are free of this despicable prejudice. Not for them a holus bolus prohibition against a romantic relationship with, yes, half the human race. But wait. Bi-sexuals are also abominable. They seek in their partners beauty, a sense of humor, intelligence, common interests, just as do all others of us. Let's face it, we all belong in jail if this decision of the New Mexican Supreme Court can be extrapolated. And if it cannot, it ought to be dropped. And not only for photographers discriminating against a gay couple. For everyone on any ground. Who says that a store is "open to the public?" Elemental justice requires that these establishments be allowed to be opened to the custom of only those with whom they wish to deal.Otherwise, freedom of association is denigrated, and we are on the road to slavery.
But will not the groups of people victimized by discrimination suffer from it thereby. Well, yes and no. Adults under 4 feet tall, or over 7 feet in height, cannot purchase off the rack clothing. What they wear must be tailor made. No mass production here. It costs more. Who should pay the extra charges? No one but them, so there is loss from being discriminated against in this context. However, a little bit of basic economics will demonstrate that this does not apply to females or blacks in the labor market. Assume that white males and black females have the same productivity, at $10 per hour, for illustration purposes. If the former is paid that amount, but the latter only, say, $7 hourly, then extra profits of $3 per hour can be made by hiring this "victimized" group. Any employer who prefers members of the former group, at these wage differentials, will tend to be driven out of business. This is the "magic of the market," or one of its elements in any case. No, discrimination cannot account for any of these wage gaps. Only productivity differentials can. And where do they stem from? That is entirely a different story.
Dr. Block [send him mail] is a professor of economics at Loyola University New Orleans, and a senior fellow of the Ludwig von Mises Institute. He is the author of Defending the Undefendable, The Case for Discrimination, Labor Economics From A Free Market Perspective, Building Blocks for Liberty, Differing Worldviews in Higher Education, and The Privatization of Roads and Highways.

- About Us
You know when you have a sit down at work? In your office meeting room with around 10 other people?
And you know when you go to a concert at the O2? It's pretty different, right?
If it's the latter and you have the aim of helping others by sharing your knowledge or singing from the rooftops about a new product and gaining as much exposure as your marketing attempts can muster, why would you use a tool designed for a meeting?
Disclaimer: This is not a place for me to state that meeting tools are pointless. They are a fantastic invention and for all manner of internal communications, the absolute bees knees.
What I would like to state, is that sadly this super-rad phenomenon grew a little faster than anyone probably expected.
So, what happened?
What this resulted in, was people pushing the boundaries where audiences and content were concerned, so before anyone knew it, they were using a meeting tool to share their screens to hundreds of people at once... and along came the technical difficulties!
The term 'webinar' is now used to describe a whole host of online communication types.
At WorkCast, we've always tried to see things differently. We don't just share your screen to your audience. Your participants won't be on a conference call with you. You don't need a plug in, nor does anyone else. Your audience does not need to install Flash. Our goal is to make it easier for everyone to create and watch webinars.
Now, I get it. This is what you've been doing for years and you didn't think you had a problem.
Those tins of beans you've been buying are just dandy, beans are beans. Until you try Heinz beans and your world becomes so much bigger. (Don't get me started on those new flavours; BBQ? Fiery Chilli?! What a time to be alive!).
The point is, there is always room for improvement. And that's how we evolve, both on a professional and personal level. I remember trying about 10 webinar solutions back in the day before finding the perfect fit for my middle of the funnel webinar campaigns.
One size does not fit all when it comes to online events
After spending some time on Capterra, TrustRadius, G2Crowd (software comparison sites) and reading reviews of the big guns in meeting tools, I was keen to take some of the most popular complaints and use them to explain why we built WorkCast the way we did.
Incidentally, what you are about to read will likely shine some light on why we have the client base that we do. I mean, our sales guys are good, but it helps if you have a rootin' tootin' product to boot!
"I have to download something every time!" or "The download is a killer" or "Our viewers are not allowed to install anything on their work computer, so they can't join our events"
WorkCast is a cloud-based, software-as-a-service platform. We are not an add-on, plug-in or pop-up and we don't reply on Flash. You access our platform the same way you have accessed this blog post.
Many of those who had complaints similar to the ones above, also had concerns that they were asking potential clients to download software onto their devices, and that this could be off-putting. Understandably so, but you'll have none of this with WorkCast.
"The image and video quality isn't great"
Well, to put it nicely, you are streaming your screen contents. This means that it's all uploaded, encoded, decoded and downloaded again, before it hits your attendee's devices, so a loss in quality is bound to happen.
Just because the video is playing perfectly on your screen, doesn't mean this is what your audience can see. If you were using WorkCast to run a video you'd embedded into your presentation, this would be delivered from the cloud and within the browser (think YouTube HD quality). Now that is why we're popular.
"There was an outage right before a massive client pitch! It made us look so unprofessional" or "I worked out that my provider has outages of around 175 hours per year! I can't justify paying for something like that"
"I can't integrate my events with my marketing automation tool which is unacceptable in this day and age"
As a marketer myself, I completely agree with the statement above. I've been running webinars prior to joining WorkCast and trust me, I was frustrated by the lack of integrations from different providers. I needed all my data in one place, my reports accurate and into my marketing platform in a snap.
"How come the webinar company gets to keep and market to my registrants? Nobody told me that"
It might come as a shock to some but yes, this is the case sometimes, with some providers. That's why you need to make sure that you read the Ts & Cs, before signing up. You don't want your competitor's content promoted to your hard-earned webinar registrants and attendees, do you?
Firstly, these are genuine, word-for-word quotes. Secondly, you can see more of this on twitter. And finally, I'll just come back to the bit about WorkCast being an actual platform.
It was built by the same developers you'll find in our offices today. We have 24/7 tech support and failsafe after failsafe to prevent any outages. Look up 'robust' in the dictionary and you'll see WorkCast.
Other honourable mentions go to 'autorenewal of contracts', 'user panel is outdated', 'Very misleading advertised price', 'very clunky interface', 'our webinars are not hosted, we need to host them or upload them to YouTube' and 'It doesn't automatically record'. Yep, you've guessed it, nothing to worry about here.
Meeting tools still have a snug place in today's online communication market, but if you have a real use case for a genuine webinar platform, or an upcoming event that you'd love to see the stress disappear from, you can get in touch for an informal chat with our webinar wizards.
If you're not sure yet where to start with webinars, you can simply take a look at our Webinar Handbook. You will definitely find some useful tips there!

Discerning God's Work In The World: Tips From The Times For Preachers: Good capitalism, bad capitalism
Friday, November 16, 2012
Good capitalism, bad capitalismI am very impressed with Eduardo Porter, who not long ago was appointed to write the column called Economic Scene for The New York Times. He writes about the intersection of economic issues with ordinary human lives. As such, his column has a distinctly ethical dimension. One of his recent columns , written shortly before the national elections, is entitled "At the Polls, Choose Your Capitalism." He contrasts "America's cutthroat capitalism" with that of other countries: "We are more...willing to accept market outcomes, including high inequality and deep poverty. More than citizens of other countries, we tend to believe that success, like failure, is deserved."
This has Christian implications. "Deserving" is the least theological of all categories. In the world-view of the gospel, no one is deserving, because we are all caught in the same web of greed and deceit. Those in power exercise greed and deceit while others suffer as a result. (Those on the unfortunate bottom of the economic heap are not free from greed and deceit--they just have less opportunity to play around with them.) Hamlet said, "Use every man after his deserts, and who shall 'scape whipping?" The Psalmist says, "There is none righteous, no, not one."
On the other hand, the ineffable Dick Cheney, in his days of power, said that the US should mete out treatment to detainees according to "what they deserve." Never mind that America is supposed to be founded on principles of justice safeguarded by courts of law, not by whims of individual persons in power, whether they be CIA operatives, platoon commanders, prison guards, or Vice Presidents.
Eduardo Porter continues, "The US may be good at generating wealth. It is arguably one of the most innovative and entrepreneurial economies in the world....But the American way has not been effective at transforming affluence into broad-based well-being." This is surely an issue that the Christian church needs to address--not just the liberal churches but also the evangelical churches.
(The date of the Times article by Eduardo Porter is Oct 31. I have not figured out how to do links at the remote site I am presently using. We have had no Internet, land line or TV for 11 days but are otherwise warm and well situated.)

NEW YORK — Hopes of easing trade tensions between China and the United States helped a gauge of global stocks edge higher on Friday despite weakness on Wall Street, though caution over pending U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods put the yuan on track for its biggest monthly decline in 25 years.
Statements from U.S. President Donald Trump and China's commerce ministry on Thursday that the countries were engaged in trade talks brought some respite to equities, which have been roiled this month by escalating trade tensions, including the announcement of further tit-for-tat tariffs.
The pan-European STOXX 600 rose 0.7%, helped by a surge in German real estate shares, though U.S. stocks gave up early gains. The MSCI All-Country World Index rose 0.23%.
On Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 12.01 points, or 0.05%, to 26,374.26, the S&P 500 lost 1.44 points, or 0.05%, to 2,923.14 and the Nasdaq Composite dropped 30.32 points, or 0.38%, to 7,943.08.
Friday notwithstanding, MSCI's gauge of global stocks was on track for its second monthly loss of the year and its biggest August percentage decline since 2015.
Market watchers expressed caution given the fluctuating rhetoric around U.S.-China trade relations. Despite recent conciliatory comments, the Trump administration on Sunday is scheduled to begin collecting 15% tariffs on more than $125 billion in Chinese imports, including smart speakers, Bluetooth headphones and many types of footwear.
China's yuan fell 0.26% to 7.161 per dollar and was on track for its weakest month since Beijing's currency reform in 1994.
"The U.S.-China situation is like a prisoner's dilemma," said Jeremy Gatto, senior vice president and portfolio manager at Unigestion in Geneva. "The parties have more to gain by cooperating, but they've almost gone too far back to find a solution.
"We'll be living with trade war fears for a while to come," Gatto said.
In fixed-income markets, U.S. Treasury yields treaded water, with the yield curve between 2-year and 10-year notes still inverted. An inversion of the yield curve is widely seen as a signal that a recession is likely in one to two years.
Benchmark 10-year Treasury notes last yielded 1.5163%, from 1.516% late on Thursday.
Euro zone bond yields were capped by data showing inflation remained at 1.0% in August, well below the European Central Bank's target.
Italian bond yields were on track for their biggest monthly decline in more than six years after the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement and opposition Democratic Party reached an agreement on a coalition government.
Among currencies, the euro tumbled 0.60% to $1.10 after the low euro zone inflation figure raised expectations for aggressive easing by the ECB.
The dollar index rose 0.32%.
The safe-haven Japanese yen rose 0.21% to 106.28 per dollar and was on track for its biggest monthly gain in three months.
Sterling stabilized at $1.2164 ahead of a crucial period for the British parliament before it is suspended ahead of Britain's scheduled exit from the European Union on Oct. 31.
In commodities, spot gold was little changed at $1,527.46 an ounce. U.S. crude fell 3.05% to $54.98 per barrel and Brent was last at $60.31, down 1.26% on the day.

Taunton Visitor Centre
The Taunton Visitor Centre approached us seeking help with their rebrand exercise. Having recently moved to new premises the client's branding needed to draw attention to their new base in the town centre allowing them to promote their new home with a fresh new brand identity.
The new visitor centre is located in the old market building right in the centre of Taunton. The logo presents this much loved feature of the county town it in a vector form as the brand mark. The blue and green core colours used as a nod to Taunton Deane Borough Council, the umbrella brand. The simple sans serif typeface was used for the same reason.
The slogan and other information are shown in a more traditional looking serif typeface elegantly matching the architectural style present in the logo. Finally, a stylised letter 'i' – the internationally recognised symbol for 'information' can either be shown as part of the word 'Visitor' or alongside in a larger bold. This gentle modern twist helps make the logo instantly recognisable to tourists and visitors to the town whether they be English speaking or not.

Why am I doing what I am doing? Because it is wonderful. And because I want to do it.
I am a self-employed author, speaker and expedition leader.
As a professional journalist I have worked for 15 years for the renowned german newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung. My publications have been honoured several times with journalist awards. During this time I participated in a 2007 expedition to the North Pole on board a nuclear powered icebreaker and since then I have specialized in arctic subjects.
In 2010 and 2011 I travelled to the North Pole on skis, over the Last Degree, together with Swiss adventurer Thomas Ulrich. In 2013 I crossed Greenland in a self-guided expedition, together with friends. About these experiences I have written two books, published 2012 and 2014. I am currently working on a new book.
Until today I have made more than 30 voyages into the Arctic and I have been 15 times at the North Pole. Today my basecamp is in the idyllic village of Schliersee in the bavarian Alps, where I work while enjoying views of the mountains and lakes. I hold inspiring lectures for companies all over Germany about my experiences in the ice and the lessons I learned from them. During the summer I work as a guide or expedition leader on arctic expedition cruise ships, where I try to raise awareness not only for the beauty but also for the vulnerability of the arctic world. I also procure carefully selected voyages into the polar regions and advise preparations for ski expeditions – the Arctic has become my employer.
I am driven by my insatiable curiosity. I will always want to head out and explore – and bring back exciting stories. And with true stories, for example about the pollution of our oceans with plastic, I want to raise awareness for a better treatment of the wonderful planet we are living on.

Making Tax Digital for VAT comes into effect from April 2019 and with 2 months to go, there is still time to make sure that you are ready.
From April 2019 it will be mandatory for many businesses to file their VAT returns digitally. It's important that you assess your financial records now to make sure that you are compliant with the changes.
Making Tax Digital requirements mean that all VAT registered businesses with a taxable turnover above the VAT registration threshold of £85,000 will be required to submit their VAT returns online via compliant software packages. Many business owners, particularly in agriculture, keep manual accounting records and will need to consider their options in advance of the deadline.
Many of our clients find the prospect of digital record keeping daunting. You may wish to pass the responsibility over to a book-keeper or an accountant, however full training is available for those who wish to keep the records themselves.
Although there is an initial investment of time and adjustment to any new system, many of our clients have found online systems quicker than manual entry, which frees up time for other business-critical tasks.
For those who are thinking about how and when to make the switch to an accounting software package, we would recommend that these discussions take place sooner rather than later to explore the best option for you.
Further benefits of going digital include having easy access to real-time information, while software packages make the process of issuing invoices and accessing data to track business performance much more efficient.
Cloud accounting software packages are accessed from the internet and are available to use anywhere. Accountants and business advisors can also have access to your systems if you choose.
Users concerned about security can rest assured that software packages are equipped with SSL encryption, the same level of security that many banks employ for their internet platforms. Many software packages also offer two-step authentication which adds an extra layer of security when logging in.
Making the transition to a digital platform is a necessity for many, and there are various compliant software packages available. Xero, Quickbooks, Sage, Farmplan and Farmdata are the most commonly used packages for agricultural businesses. Most of these charge on a monthly subscription basis. Everything is run entirely online and there are no upgrade fees.
If you are interested in making the switch to a cloud accounting software package, we would recommend that you get in touch with your accountant as soon as possible to discuss your options and the best route to take to ensure you are Making Tax Digital compliant for April 2019.

What is a hurdle rate, and how is it set?
A hurdle rate is the level, in £ per share, above which the beneficial owner of that share will have full economic rights to the company in question.
For example, if you have shares with a hurdle of £1 per share, and the company is eventually sold for £3 per share, then you will receive £2 per share.
The hurdle rate is set by the company at a level that reflects the value of the company at the time at which the shares were issued, including a small premium to reflect the hope value of the shares.
This means that when you receive the shares you should not incur a tax liability, and only will need to pay capital gains tax on the eventual sale of the shares - based on the difference between the eventual share price and the the hurdle rate at which they were issued.
Our team, content and app can help you make informed decisions. However, any guidance and support should not be considered as 'legal or financial advice'.

Testing Unicode coverage for fonts is always a problem and I decided to create a simple set of character sets for testing the coverage. I've splat them by language groups based on regions. Using these strings should be quite easy.
You should remember some things:
- It's not safe to test font strings inside the browsers because they do have font-fallback
- soon I will add font-coverage for the most used fonts
Simple scripts - Latin, Cyrillic and Greek
Groups from 1-4 are additive, so characters already included in previous groups are removed
Group 1 - Basic - 5 languages - en, fr, es, de, it
Group 2 - Western - 6 languages - da, fi, nb, nl, pt, sv
Group 5- Greek
Complex Scripts (to be done)
How to test fonts under Windows ?
If you want to see character coverage you should use BabelMap, and if you want to write different texts you can use BabelPad. These two tools the best I've found so far and are free.

Best Ways to Pay Influencers When You Have a Small Budget
Whether you're a startup or an established business, I'm sure you realize the importance of influencer marketing by now. Not only is it great for creating brand awareness, but a successful campaign can also boost sales and grow a followership on social media.
Due to its growing popularity, influencer marketing has unfortunately become increasingly expensive and influencers have become more demanding – for good reason. Influencers put a lot of effort, time, and energy into developing compelling content for your brand. And it's only fair that they are compensated for their services – whether it be monetary or not. A couple surveys from TapInfluence and Crowdtap found that brands usually fail to offer adequate compensation to influencers.
According to Crowdtap, 68% of influencers are willing to work with a brand again if the brand offers fair compensation. This indicates that compensation is important, and it encourages and motivates influencers to create the content that adds value to your brand, rather than fluff.
Offering fair compensation to influencers is also a gesture of respecting their time and effort. You wouldn't blow off a photographer and model invoice for their time, so why would you an influencer?
Even with a small budget, influencer marketing can be effective, but fairly compensating your influencers will add value to your brand. Understand how you can go about compensating them in ways that both suit your budget and may not cost you at all.
Work your industry
Another way of compensating your influencers is to work the industry you're in. An all-expenses-paid trip is best suited for brands who are in the travel industry who can get perks at a discounted rate. Influencers can experience your hospitality and services first-hand and also enjoy a luxurious vacation at a fraction of the market cost.
Those who are thought leaders in the industry looking to promote themselves through speaking engagements can also invite influencers to large events in-lieu of payment. The average major fashion show ticket goes for $500, and the average industry conference ticket costs $1500 for 3 days.
This strategy, if implemented correctly, can create a lot of buzz around your brand. This will also send across a positive and motivating message to your influencers. They'll feel valued with event invites, unique products and other industry-exclusive offerings.
One brand that nailed this trend on the head was Air Canada, when they crafted a campaign to promote their new flight route from Vancouver to Brisbane. They created a social media campaign and offered their influencers an all-expenses-paid trip to Brisbane from Vancouver.
Image via Instagram
For the airline's announcement of the new flightpath, Air Canada offered a free flight to influencers located in Vancouver, hoping to spread the message genuinely through influencers rather than advertising. Not only was this an opportunity to explore the beauty of Brisbane, but also a trip of a lifetime for the influencer and awareness to the new flightpath. Talk about great bang for your marketing buck!
Work with Micro-Influencers
Another way to execute a successful influencer marketing campaign on a small budget is to work with micro-influencers. Micro-influencers generally have between 5K to 10K followers of hyper-engaged audiences. They're a great option for those who are looking to work with niche accounts who produce authentic and honest content, reviews and messages on their accounts.
According to a Bloglovin' report, more than 95% of micro-influencers charge less than $500 for a single Instagram post. And nearly 84% of micro-influencers are likely to charge you no more than $250 for a single post.
Another advantage of working with micro-influencers is that they can generate maximum engagement and conversion rates with smaller audience sizes. According to a study by HelloSociety, micro-influencers can generate engagement rates that are 60% higher than that of larger influencers. Since they have a smaller following, there account is more personable, and people following the account are genuinely interested in what the influencer posts about.
Booster Juice recently kicked off a local campaign that worked with micro influencers to announce their 'health kick campaign' for the month of January. Using a locals such as Natalie_Adele, who has just shy of 5,000 followers and is an unofficial mommy blogger – proved that micro-influencers really work! Her initial post drove 546 likes and 30 likes, whereas another post drove over 600 likes and nearly 60 comments!
Image via Instagram
The campaign turned out to be successful as the brand's reach increased to local audiences they didn't previously have access too and drove thousands of likes in the local area.
Offer Long-Term Partnerships
Let's be frank, influencer marketing campaigns are a lot of work. Reaching out, recruiting, organizing, brainstorming, optimizing, tracking, proving to your boss that it's all worth it – it's a lot! Offering long-term partnerships to influencers can help both parties. Influencers get continuous work, assuming they will be making more money based on a one off post compared to multiple – and the brand saves time and money finding new influencers for each campaign.
This isn't anything revolutional, brands have been doing this and you can tell by using the #partner hashtag attached to each post. The trick is to try finding those influencers who are already using your product or service, or those of your competitors.
Instead of a one-off campaign, many influencers prefer a long-term collaboration with brands. Offering a long-term partnership to an influencer demonstrates the amount of trust and confidence you have in their ongoing content. This also strengthens the portfolio of influencers when they are displayed on your website, social media feed, etc. further adding to their credibility when it comes to working with other brands.
Final Thoughts
Influencer marketing campaigns are doable for businesses big and small, whether your budget permits or not. By leveraging the power of influencers, you can tap into a whole new audience you wouldn't have had access to before – and brownie points if they're hyper-engaged with the content they follow (cough* micro-influencers *cough).

Jam, Jelly and Pickles are important food products as they enhance palatability of food due to its taste and flavour. They are prepared from fruits and they supplement the food with vitamins and minerals. There are many types of pickles available in India. These products have very good market potential as they are consumed in most of the households, restaurants, other eateries, clubs, hostels etc.
They are sold through many outlets like grocery shops, departmental stores etc. But these products are very popular in the North‐East region of India and the consumption is increasing year after year. Presently, there are limited numbers of small units producing these products in the region and there is a wide gap between demand and supply which is met by the manufacturers from outside the region.

Burton Swift Watch - Thursday 19th May 2016 week
Thursday 19th May 2016 - Main Street, Burton In Kendal 2000hrs to 2100hrs
It was a great pleasure to be having our very first Swift watch of the year and so pleasing to see how well it was attended.
We are this year covering new ground in so much that we are starting the observations a couple of weeks earlier than in past years. So we are not sure just what to expect.
We checked out all the regular sites calling off briefly at each. We struggled counting the very fragmented Swifts giving off their usual aerial displays and although some screaming was heard, there was very little of it. However we did manage to tally up seven birds in total.
Our first true confirmed nesting came from the rear annexe on the Royal Hotel Cottage where again they were using one of the long established sites. We first witnessed a bird leaving the hole and then shortly after we saw a bird return to the site and about five minutes later was fortunate to see a second bird attend the same nest site.
Moving on our next confirmed encounter was on the front of the Manor House where we where lucky enough to see a bird entering again a long established nest site.
This concluded our observations for the evening and we have planned to meet up again next Thursday at 2000hrs when all persons interested in watching the Swifts will be very welcome.
NEXT SWIFT MEETING: THURSDAY 26th MAY 2016 - 2000hrs BURTON MEMORIAL HALL - EVERYBODY WELCOME

in the environment that supplies them with raw materials for life,
i.e., chemical elements and water. The living organisms are interacting
among themselves and with the environment in which they live
(the climate, altitude, light, water and soil characteristics, and
other physical conditions of the environment).

At Bobble Heads UK we believe we have very competitive prices, so we though we'd test this theory on some of our newest pre-orders with our 2 biggest competitors. For the sake of this information the prices are all including basic included / cheapest delivery options and were collected on the 30/01/2011.
For these example's we have chosen the highly popular Star Wars theme and the soon to be released limited edition Giant Vintage Kenner Star Wars Action FIgures and a newly released cool Darth Maul Statue.
Now I wonder if these other 2 companies send there products out via Royal Mail 1st class recorded delivery or via Courier?
Below is a result table showing the price comparisons. Interesting eh?

Regular price
This simple wrought iron hook is great for hanging a coat or dressing gown on. Ideal for bathrooms, bedrooms or on the back of a door in a country kitchen. Each one is unique as it is handmade in Wales, but they are also remarkably similar if you want to put more than one up! Perfect present for someone getting a new home or re-decorating a room.
The current batch is blacker so slightly more rustic than shown.


text: Though sneakers are increasingly acceptable as adult, non-basketball player footwear, there are plenty of occasions when you'd rather rock dress shoes -- but how to do that without looking like you're about to totally own a project management meeting, or a funeral? Casually style up, with Heutchy. A landed gentry-ish, limited line of dress half-boots and loafers, Heutchy's the debut collection from a former designer for Marc by Marc Jacobs (a grating name for a collection, but better than "I'm a Big Deal by I'm a Big Deal"). Wood-heeled and handmade from Italian leather and Japanese canvas, Heutchy's derbeys and oxfords come in two styles: grey leather w/ purple-hued canvas top sole or quarter flanks, and canvas-accented, mirror-shined black leather -- for looking hangdog humble when you're really vainly admiring your own handsomeness. Heutchy also peddles a single style of half-height lace-up boots in either black leather/black canvas flanks, or brown leather/tan canvas -- mix and match the black and tan, and Irishmen will slurp the ground you walk on. In the spring, Heutchy'll expand into more colorfully formal kicks (perforated white leather, purple canvas...), so when the Knicks come calling, you'll have something snazzier than sneakers to compliment your teal, triple-breasted, five-button draft suit.

I have just finished my busy show and sale season with a show in Calgary, Alberta and one here in my home town of Canmore, Alberta. Of course, I love selling my work to new people, but as usual, I think one of the best things to come out of these art sales is talking to a wide variety of fellow art-lovers. Here are a few gems from my recent shows.
The first day of my Calgary sale, after selling the majority of my wood sculptures, something magical happened. A friend came by with her boys (ages 10 and 6) and her youngest seemed mesmerized by my "Jolly St. Nick" carving. He picked it up and had that look written all over his cute little face: the one where a piece of art has got you by the heartstrings. He said, "I want this." His mom gently said they would think about it and to put it back because they were going to walk around and look at the other 21 tables before buying anything.
He came back several times and he would pick up the Santa, hold him, look at him, put him down. Eventually he came back and announced, "I am buying him. But, can I call him Buddha Santa instead?" I agreed it was a much better name for this round, happy fellow. After the transaction, his mom told me he was using his own saved money. I was honored to have a six-year-old as my youngest-ever collector. (Incidentally, he usurped the position held by his brother, who bought a gnome wood sculpture from me last year!)
At this same sale, I was showing a limited edition block print called "Summer Afternoon" with a small boy fishing by a river. A woman stood in front of it for a long time, then sighed. "That brings tears to my eyes," she told me. "My son used to sit like that and fish all day when he was little." When I told her it was based on a photo of my son, now 7, she smiled and said, "Mine's 27 now!" She bought it and told me how wonderful it made her feel. I assured her it brought me delight to know she had it, too!
That same print captured the attention of another mom at the Canmore show. This woman stayed in my booth a while with a toddler on her hip. As she held the unframed print, trying to decide, her little boy poked his pudgy finger at the print and declared in his just-learned language: "That's ME, mommy! That's ME!!" We both smiled, and he insisted again as if she hadn't heard, "Mommy!! That's MEEE!" She turned to me and said, "Sold." She chose my print numbered 8/9 because her son was born in August of 2009. So cool.
One woman picked up my wood creations and said wistfully, "Your work looks like a carver I once knew in Cape Breton (Nova Scotia). Her carvings were in a book about Christmas and carved Santas." Immediately, I knew who she meant and asked if it was "The House of Wooden Santas" by Kevin Major with carvings by Imelda George. This is a book that another person told me about a year ago and has quickly become one of my Christmas favorites. She said, "Yes! My family owns several of her original carvings, and your work reminds me of hers!" I wondered if she had any idea what a compliment that was!
So many other neat things come out of community art shows. I always meet new people, deepen connections with other artists who attend, and generally have a great time hanging out and talking about art. I even came home with some wonderful art pieces from other artists, too, but that's another blog!

The Columbia Anthology of Modern Japanese Drama Hardback
Edited by J. Rimer, Mitsuya Mori, M. Cody Poulton
This anthology is the first to survey the full range of modern Japanese drama and make available Japan's best and most representative twentieth- and early-twenty-first-century works in one volume.
It opens with a comprehensive introduction to Meiji-period drama and follows with six chronological sections: "The Age of Taisho Drama"; The Tsukiji Little Theater and Its Aftermath"; "Wartime and Postwar Drama"; "The 1960s and Underground Theater"; "The 1980s and Beyond"; and "Popular Theater," providing a complete history of modern Japanese theater for students, scholars, instructors, and dramatists.
The collection features a mix of original and previously published translations of works, among them plays by such writers as Masamune Hakucho (The Couple Next Door), Enchi Fumiko (Restless Night in Late Spring), Morimoto Kaoru (A Woman's Life), Abe Kobo (The Man Who Turned into a Stick), Kara Juro (Two Women), Terayama Shuji (Poison Boy), Noda Hideki (Poems for Sale), and Mishima Yukio (The Sardine Seller's Net of Love).
Leading translators include Donald Keene, J. Thomas Rimer, M. Cody Poulton, John K. Gillespie, Mari Boyd, and Brian Powell. Each section features an introduction to the developments and character of the period, notes on the plays' productions, and photographs of their stage performances.
The volume complements any study of modern Japanese literature and modern drama in China, Korea, or other Asian or contemporary Western nations.

Organic Garden Checklist for November
Fall and winter are always welcome seasons after our long hot summers. Rainfall is usually plentiful as the weather cools. The five plus inches recently received were so welcome after the late summer drought. Our first freeze is around Thanksgiving. Prepare for a freeze by watering plants well because dry roots are damaged by cold temperatures. Mulching plants with pine straw, shredded leaves or native mulch also helps protect them during the cold weather. Frost blankets, or even row cover, can be used to give plants some frost protection.
Preconditioning prepares the plant to withstand cold temperatures without damage. Withhold pruning and nitrogen fertilizers until spring. Fertilizers high in potassium, such as seaweed or kelp, can be applied now, as this element is known to promote thick cell walls that will help protect the plant against freeze damage. Watering plants with a liquid seaweed solution can give them one to two degrees of frost protection. Mulch perennials well to protect roots from freezes.
Take plumerias inside the garage and withhold water until growth appears next spring. Take cuttings now and let cure over the winter before planting next spring. Protect tropical plants that will not withstand freezing temperatures. Inspect them for insect pests before bringing them indoors.
Early November is a great time to plant or move shrubs and trees to replace those lost in the drought. Roots continue to develop during late fall and the plants will be well-established before bud break in spring. Camellias can be difficult to move successfully. Smaller shrubs are easier to transplant. Before moving camellias, or any shrub, root prune now by cutting the roots with a sharp shovel around the shrub about 12-18 inches out from the trunk. Prepare a seaweed solution, according to directions, and apply around the plant every 2 weeks to stimulate root development. Do not use more than the recommended amount. The shrub can be transplanted to its new location between January 15 and February 15 (its most dormant period). Continue to water well with a seaweed solution until established. Small trees can be treated in the same manner, but transplant them around the first of January. If crowded daylilies have not been divided, divide them now.
November is one of the best months for planting herbs. Interplant them among other perennials and vegetables or dedicate a special garden for herbs. Incorporate a few extra plants of parsley, dill or fennel for larvae of the swallowtail butterflies. These plants will also attract beneficial insects to the garden. Most herbs need well-drained soil and full sun to give their best performance.
Flowering bedding plants to plant now include alyssum, calendula, dianthus, English daisies, Johnny-jump-ups, pansies, petunias, primroses, snapdragons and seeds of sweet peas.
Bulbs or blub-like plants that can be planted now are allium, amaryllis, Aztec lily, crocus, freesia, daylily, hyacinth, iris leucojum, muscari, narcissus, ranunculus, sparaxis, and society garlic. Wait until after Christmas to plant pre-chilled tulip bulbs.
Vegetables to plant in November include broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower and kohlrabi plants - get these in by November 15. Carrots, Swiss chard, collards, garlic, kale, lettuce, mustard, multiplying onion, radish, spinach and turnip can also be planted. Even the ornamental kale and cabbage are edible. Water the seed trays with fish emulsion to prevent the fungal disease called "damping off." Put in strawberry plants this month for a spring harvest. Strawberries are perennial plants in cooler regions, but are treated as annuals here. For a list of the best varieties, seed sources and a vegetable garden planting chart, call Texas A&M AgriLife Extension at 936-539-7824.
Install nestboxes for small cavity nesters such as Eastern Bluebirds. They will not begin nesting until spring, but are looking for nesting sites now. Scrub out bird feeders with a weak bleach solution and dry thoroughly before refilling with seed. Leave a few of the seed heads on Rudbeckia, sunflowers and purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea). Small birds such as chickadees and finches enjoy these seed.
Look through garden books and catalogs for new plants to try next year. Resolve to plant more native species that require less water. Strive to have at lease 50% of your landscape be native plants.
Watch for scale insects on plants such as camellia, pineapple guava, magnolia, holly and bay. When found, spray with a light-weight horticultural oil (but not before a freeze forecast). Make sure to cover the underside of the leaf surface where scale hides.
Fall is the perfect time for starting a compost pile. To learn how, visit the Compost Class in the Woodlands on Saturday, November 7, 10:00 a.m. Master Gardeners will be on hand to teach you the fundamentals of composting. Call 281.210.3900 for more information.
