Matt: So, I know you have own podcast and blog that you have been running for quite a while and so I imagine you get lots of questions.
Q: Is there a common question you particularly get asked as someone who is very influential in the industry?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I think a lot of people will kind of have an opinion or vision of what it's like being a blogger. So I get a lot of people who say I want to start blogging what do I do?
That's one of the more commonly asked questions. Like how I got started doing this or how I became an influencer. It started by being willing to share your opinion, unabashed opinion sometimes, putting it out there through resources and information.
Matt: Absolutely. Do people ask often how long it takes to get to a point where you can serve a larger audience. Is that ever a question or is that something you sort of temper people's enthusiasm on. And the fact that it is a consistent and long road.
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I do tell people that it takes a lot longer than you expect. And you have to be almost obsessed with it a little bit. You are like a marathon runner or blogging or whatever.
It's a long-term activity. I do think a lot of people think that you are going to share your opinion. And that everyone is going to listen. And take action and share with others. It is definitely a long-term strategy and it involves, for me many years of talking on my blog.
I even had an internet television show early on in like 2007/2009. Sharing your opinion and thoughts on topics sometimes there was absolutely no-one listening.
Matt: It's the old adage of overnight success took twelve years, right. It's all the hard work and stuff that happens in the past before this moment.
This is an interesting next question, considering all the technology and everything that is going on in the industry.
Q: What do you see as the future of recruitment?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I think it's interesting that you asked this question because I feel there are so many different components.
I do think if the economy were safe it would tighten more, right? So it kind of continues the momentum that we are going.
"I believe that the skills that are going to be more sought after are those human interaction components"
Organisations are going to be adopting more of the technology whether its text messaging or a chat box or AI.
However, I believe that the skills that are going to be more sought after are those human interaction components.
So how a recruiter or talent acquisition leader can stand out from others. Who have good communication skills be able to speak. And do so in a way that the automated tools and technology cannot yet do.
I do lean more towards the automation kind of things but definitely think that at the end of the day. At least in the short term anyway. That we are not going to have a chat box that is going to be able to duplicate and respond to every of the millions of questions that we get as recruitment leaders.
And be able to handle those small new asked questions. That maybe a job seeker has or hiring manager is wondering about.
Matt: I agree. And I think moving jobs is such a big decision. It's not like a chat box on an e-commerce site. Where you get some basic answers to questions and you can make a small purchase. It doesn't really impact your life much.
A job is like buying a house it's a big purchase, it's a big move. People want to talk to someone, don't they?
If you are looking for answers you probably do want to actually speak to someone. And that is going to be very difficult for technology to replace in the short-term.
I think automation will remove a layer from the industry of the basic tasks. And then that leaves room for us to apply the actual expertise of being a recruiter. And that's talking and persuading and influencing and those sorts of human-led interactions.
I think it is quite exciting, what we can do with technology to enhance how we perform as recruiters.
Q: What's the biggest challenge you have faced in recruitment in the past?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: In the past. I didn't have enough data or information to support those gut decisions that we know in our hearts and minds are working.
For example for me. Mid-way through my HR career I really adapted to social media and was using a lot of different things.
Twitter and MySpace, Facebook and all these different tools and technology. And I didn't have the analytics tools to justify the utilization of social media and how effective it is.
So it was hard for me to sort of justify to my leadership team what I knew that social media was the way of the future. The personal interaction and the development of relationships happening online. And that it was going to change maybe the way we interact with one another. And build relationships and grow our businesses through our recruiting funnel.
So, I think now more than ever we have technology that's come up, and not always but in most organizations. We have the ability to be able to attract those interactions and conversations. And be able to have the best picture of how important they actually are. How they are impacting on recruitment and hiring effort positively hopefully.
Matt: It's interesting you mentioned funnels. There is the old school version of a funnel and I am talking purely agency recruitment right now. They used to use the diary over a digital funnel but really it was just the numbers that you need.
You speak to 20, 30, 40 people you know you filter down to x. And that filters down to y and then z. You talked about funnels there from a far more sophisticated perspective. In terms of analytics and tracking the entire conversation.
Do you think we really apply sophisticated marketing funnels for talent acquisition effectively. Or do you think we are still a fair way away from people really knowing how to use that. As part of a TA team or a staffing agency?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I think it's happening more now than it ever has before. So for agency recruiting, I think those guys and gals have a method to their madness.
They do know the number of actions and activities it takes. Because I feel like agencies and staffing companies, more so than corporate recruiting. And they know the exact number of interactions. Sort of like a salesperson, right? You know the number of candidates you need to source. And the number of interviews that you need to give before you fill that role.
It's interesting that I feel like corporate recruiting they don't treat recruitment like the agencies do in that way. More like a sale of assured numbers. And so they are looking at funneling from an eBook or lead capture perspective. So the number of people that pass through versus the number of candidates that pass maybe the initial assessment training. Before they go through the interview process and so forth.
I think that the agency side of things. And I have done some work with staffing companies over the last couple of years. You do need to think about not only building your funnel because you are only as good as the people you know as a recruiter.
But the community of people that you have and the people that you have on your database are so important to success. That's why people work with staffing companies.
So you are now playing in the same pool as a corporate recruiter who is casting a wider net. So those relationships I think are more important for agency recruiters than ever before.
I would want to keep building those relationships with my candidates through some traditional marketing activities.
Do different things to determine their temperature that they have in terms of wanting to maybe make a change. So that you are the first person that they call. Surely when they are that A player that nobody else can get but you have known them for three years. And you have been fostering that relationship.
Matt: Yeah. That should be the core expertise of a recruiter they have a curated pool of relationships that you build over years. And you can access for the benefit of your clients and the candidates at any point.
Jessica Miller-Merrell: It's hard to scale.
Matt: It is absolutely hard to scale. I think that is where a lot of businesses, certainly on the agency side. Struggle if they get too many jobs or vacancies in for clients. It becomes very difficult. And people don't realize how time poor recruiters can be because of the multiple plates they have to juggle.
I think applying the same sort of technology or approach maybe as the corporate recruiters do. Could certainly help on the agency side as well. It doesn't seem as though it is being done just yet. Some companies are, but not the mass, right?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Not enough yet, but I think there is a real window of opportunity because those agency recruiters. They have those relationships, they have worked in the industry for 15 years. They know, they have that guy who is wanting to rack up with his project. And they are the first persons that they call, right.
That's competitive, so if we can use this chat box technology. Or some sophistication maybe with text messaging or just updates. This will help those recruiters to have those relationships to be able to really scale and build on them.
You can have a competitive advantage, it's so challenging to find talent right now. Relationship is the name of the game. I mean you want to find those people and put them into your database. But then you want to foster and cultivate those relationships.
Q: Recruitment horror story? One you have heard from people you have spoken to or one you have experienced yourself?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I was thinking about this when you asked me. Because I mean I have a lot of weird stories that have happened to me over the years. And I think most recruiters have.
I have had a lot of immigration challenges. In my first recruiting/HR job, I was in a community that was known for its meatpacking plant. And they had a large immigrant population. So it was a kind of a funny story, not necessarily recruiting related.
We hired a lady who had a very troublesome experience. She had moved to the location and came knocking on my door. Because she had looked for a second job to supplement in the evenings. And she had just found out that the meat packer plant was hiring.
The senior manager pulled her into the a room and said, Daphne why don't you like working here? You have worked here for the last eight years and she said what are you talking about I am just applying for a job? And that was when she found out there was somebody with her name and social security number. That was working at the meat packing plant in the town that she had moved.
I had just moved here like eight months ago. And she never would have known if she hadn't moved here and went through the interview process.
I dealt with a lot of weird stuff like that in my first HR recruitment job. I had just gone through during my MBA programme a pretty extensive research topic on identity theft. So I knew exactly what to do to try to help her but that was a scary thing that happened to her.
Matt: Absolutely, I couldn't imagine putting myself in her shoes, how you would feel!
Jessica Miller-Merrell: She had to have records that go back eight years. I mean to whenever it was prior to prove who she was. So that was crazy stuff that happened all the time.
I mean I had been bribed to ignore. Like false social security cards and numbers and all of that stuff. Here's $10,000 you know, can you look the other way.
Q: Is there anyone that is influential to you in your career, any influencers now that you know you can learn from?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: So I have been, I think most influenced by bad bosses. People who I think did a crappy job and didn't lead a team well or made all the mistakes.
It helped me immensely because I decided exactly what I didn't want to do. So I think those people really defined me early on in my HR career.
I had a really great boss that was my HR director where I was working. And I would say that he was the one that influenced me to become an entrepreneur.
I already had it in my blood. I was just in denial that that was the direction I was going in. Rebecca helped me come to my own realization that was the place really that I needed to be.
Matt: I think it's very good to have experiences of what not to do. Because it ensures you avoid doing the same to others, right? I am writing a blog at the moment actually which I will release shortly. It is about being pigeonholed. I think I was 14 or 15 and we took a test early on. It was there to prescribe what your career you will have in the future.
I think that was so dangerous at such a young age. To have influential people in your life telling you what limitations you have. Based on how you answered a form.
I think from memory, I was set to be a construction labourer, which, don't get me wrong. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. And some of my best friends in the UK are very happy in a construction job.
It just wasn't what I wanted to do, and fortunately, I'm not easily influenced.
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I think you need many mentors really. I mean I will say that mentors are more important now that I am older. And more experienced in my career than ever before.
Because everybody has an opinion on what I should or shouldn't do. But being able to trust someone and pick up the phone and meet with them for coffee and say this is where I think I am going, what are your thoughts? I find this extremely valuable.
Matt: Even sometimes if it's just you want to bounce your own ideas off someone else, right. Even if they don't necessarily guide you. It can be really valuable just to sit down and talk through what is on your mind.
Q: Talent acquisition or recruiting?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: We sort of use both interchangeable. I still like talent acquisition it's kind of the cool thing that the corporate people use, right. The larger enterprises say, oh I'm a talent acquisition leader. But the rest of us say I'm a recruiter. This is what I do you know find talent and bring it into the organisation. So I am more old school I think recruiting sounds better to me.
Matt: Excuse my language on the next one.
Q: If you could call bullshit on one myth related to recruitment what would it be?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: There are so many of them. I didn't prepare for this one. I think the economy is challenging right now. But there is good talent out there, so when I hear from someone who says. I can't find anybody to fill this role, there's nobody here to do this job.
I would call bullshit on that because it's a larger problem. Probably with the culture or your organisation. Those people are out there you can't just go to LinkedIn to be able to look for those people anymore. Because talent is so in demand and they have options. The problem is it's a larger problem with maybe a conversation structure or your culture or just your business. It's not a good win or one that people know when they have a high turnover.
Matt: Yes, one hundred per cent. And I guess that then reflects on, it's very topical at the moment, your employer brand.
Making your business attractive to people that are in-coming.
We obviously talk a lot about recruiter brands as well and how important that is. The myth that there is talent out there. I mean I don't think agency recruitment would still be in operation if they didn't constantly prove the point. That if you have got an expert assigned to finding you that person. They are going to find that person. So then it's more a case as you say. Looking at your organization, what are the problems systemically through the company.
Or what is your on-boarding process or what's your brand in the market. Look at those things first before sort of claiming that no one exists.
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Yeah, and if you went through all those things and there is no talent then you have to look a bit harder to solve this problem through starting a training programme or apprenticeship. Or maybe building relationships with Universities or personal associations. Try to help get those people the skills. And the training that they need to be able to build your pipeline.
Matt: Historically you look at square peg square hole fits, right? I mean you need someone to fill a sales manager job in the pharmaceutical industry. So typically you look for someone who has been a sales manager in the pharma industry. So do you think we are going to start focusing more-so on a person's skills and their ability to utilize those skills for different industries, positions etc. Rather than purely experiential based?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Absolutely. We are already seeing a lot of that now. I mean, for example. If you are looking for a salesperson in the pharma industry maybe you need to look to fundraising for non-profit, right. So they can speak well, meet with the client, clientele but is still focused on selling.
It might be hard to convince your client to go in that direction but maybe you give them a reduced fee percentage or rate. To bring somebody in and test them out for a pilot and see if that works. But that would be the strategy that I would employ trying to look for a similar industry or slightly different but the same type of calibre of candidate.
Q: What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Best piece of advice, I think it would be to stop worrying about other people. I am a people pleaser and I have had to get tough in this industry, especially as an influencer. You have an opinion and you are sharing it. Not everybody is going to like that opinion and that they are going to share their opinion back. It's okay if everyone doesn't like you.
Matt: More people should follow their own path, without worrying about other people's perceptions. I think we would then have more insightful conversations and dialogues. There won't be tempered opinions, you know with concern about what people might think of them, and so on
We probably half touched on this earlier, right at the beginning of the conversation:
Q: Modern day recruiters. What do you think are a couple of skills that are super important as we move forward into a very different era?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: So I think that phone skills, personal skills are more important than ever. Because I think that a lot of people are. You know. My life is on the internet, I work on the internet, I run a blog. So being able to talk on your feet is critical for every recruiter. And to sort of take out of that conversation with the hiring manager or clients. What they really need is extremely critical. The other piece is the internet.
We are all in sales and marketing. And so I do think that funnels are important. Anything I do online is really with funnels and marketing in mind. So whether you are an independent recruiter and it's just you. You should think about your personal brand and how to build traffic. And candidates to, maybe a single unified place. A destination where they fill out a form or something so you can push them into your CRM ATS.
But if you are working for a large organization you should be thinking about a larger brand. And how to push those candidates to some place.
A funnel, to be able to complete that activity. So that you can focus on a communication building relationship, that's the second part.
I think that is so important. I mean you are going to have to learn how to work the internet.
If you put together a really great presentation on seven ways to impress your hiring manager and pharma. Like pharma sales. And you put that out there.
Then you have a new pipeline of candidates that are interested in sales roles that is specifically targeted at maybe that problem area. That you are having a hard time finding candidates.
Matt: I couldn't agree more. It's super important that recruiters stop to look at, not just being a salesperson but you are a marketing professional now.
I think that's a tough skill to master. To understand funnels and understand how to build marketing material or become a blog writer. Or somebody that can produce content of a quality that their audience want's to see and obviously reflects your brand.
This is a really important one and one of the core reasons why we are doing what we are doing.
Q: Why do you think the industry, in general, has a bad perception?
Matt: That maybe purely agency recruitment or maybe its recruitment across the spectrum. But why do you think it has a bad perception and how do you think we can go about fixing it?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Some of it I think is from an information standpoint. Candidates do not understand the differences between agency and corporate. Or even like a resume writer. Oh you do career stuff, you can help me get a job, and they lump us all into one category.
I don't think we do a good job just as a whole. Educating the job candidate community when they want to work with a headhunter or even agency. This is different than a corporate, here is the process.
The reason we don't tell them the process. You know maybe I don't have an exclusive on this role yet so you are not going to paint a picture for them. But I think there is a lot of misunderstanding on what the recruiter does or doesn't do. Depending versus corporate and so on.
So that's one thing. The other thing I think we do a horrible job of. Is following up on candidates. And I am guilty of this as well even though I try my hardest.
There are times when I have 120 + candidates that have applied for a role and I didn't communicate to them that the position has been filled.
Even with my own team.
I just hired a marketing coordinator about six weeks ago. And I have not told anybody that I haven't told the other people that applied for the job that it has been filled.
I told my final two, but I didn't tell the rest. So I think that is incredibly frustrating and something that we need to make a priority. Let people know hey it's been filled, sorry you didn't get the job. So that they can have some closure and maybe able to move on. Sell our job to be like life coaches for these people, I think sometimes that is the expectation for them.
Matt: I think people find it difficult to deliver bad news. When you start delivering that bad news. Whatever it is You will find that more often than not. People are very grateful that you took the time and made an effort to do so even if they didn't get the job.
I think education is a massively important one. A lot of candidates, clients, recruiters on both sides of the fence. Don't really understand what goes into being successful in the job. And I think if there is more education and understanding. Then empathy will follow for recruiters that are good at what they do. In turn we will have a lot fewer people burning out. Resulting in a lot more great recruiters and I think that is important.
Great recruiters burn out, as they are constantly fighting negative stigma due to recruiters not representing the industry well.
Q: Three favorite recruiting tools?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: I was really thinking about this. So granted I am definitely more on the marketing side of the house, but I am also independent. I am a small business, so automation is extremely important. So my favorite recruiting tool is not a recruiting tool. But it is an automated tool and so that would be Zapier!
I use that for all sorts of things, pushing people from email to my CRM, tweets that go out I have automated content pieces. So it looks like I am on Social media even when I am not.
I haven't gone on twitter today but there are probably ten tweets that have come out of my various accounts. And on Facebook and LinkedIn.
All those things are happening and I haven't even logged in to be able to make that happen, but It's happening.
I am also a fan of Chrome Extensions. One of my favorite ones is Boomerang. And it is simply. I can get a notification if somebody opens my email so I can pick up the phone and call them. Or I can have it set up to resend if they don't open my email in two days or at whatever time.
So I use those a lot. It also allows me to schedule some emails which I will do depending on the time zone for international clients. Everybody has a lot of emails.
Boomerang is not a recruiting tool at all. But I have another social media tool that we use a lot is something called "meet Edgar". Meet Edgar is a paid tool. But it allows me to push contents to Facebook and LinkedIn. Plus other social channels, in particular, like on an ongoing basis.
So if you are a recruiter and you know you need to be posting career stuff on social media but you always forget to do it. You can pick 100 articles that you like so you find your favourite blogger for example.
Pull their contents that are helpful or to target your candidate audience that you want. And put it on a rotation under "Meet Edgar" and then you can post two or three times a day. Or less or more. But there is content coming out ongoing to kind of build those relationships with your candidates or partner.
Matt: Do you find that there is much of a difference in engagement. From unique content that you yourself are creating and pushing out through those channels. Versus curating relevant content from your favorite bloggers and so on and pushing that out? Do you find a different level of engagement with your audience?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Well, it kind of seems self-serving if I only push out my content. It's important I think collectively if you read good stuff you should share other people's resources and things. I think you want to be known as that person who is like the go-to in your space. Or particular industry that always knows all the staff and knows all the people. And so that you are sharing more than just your stuff.
I will tell you that a cool tool I am using now that is free is that I can still share other people's stuff. But still have my logo and my call to action is a tool that called Sniply.
It put's a little tag at the bottom of the post. as a cookie even if it isn't yours and there is an action piece you can customize. To remind people that's my content or that I cultivated that content and I am sharing it.
Matt: I think that's really important if you are putting time and effort into curating great content. From whatever source for your audience that there should be some level of recognition.
Okay, a couple more to go.
Q:What keeps you going or what advice would you give to others to keep them going?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Remember that feeling that you have when you have a great day helping somebody find a job they love. Those are the sorts of moments that I try to Remember.
Recruiters are hidden heroes of the business. Because they are finding the talent, bringing them in the door and then those hiring managers mould them into the person that you saw, that they had the potential to be. So remember. Everybody has to think a couple of those success stories where you know that person you brought in that nobody thought was going to work is now the VP of a division. Or would transfer to a new location and they are just killing it. Those are the stories that I think about when I am having a bad day.
"Recruiters are hidden heroes of the business because they are finding the talent"
Matt: Yes, I think that is very good advice, as you say, hidden heroes as recruiters are often doing the thankless task of being a recruiter. But really your ability to impact an entire organization through finding rock star staff is really important to recognise.
Both internally but people should also recognise recruiters for doing that job and how important they are to the business.
Q: What's your opinion on job boards? Do they provide a good ROI are they a necessary evil, what's your general thought?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: Erm, I think that if you are really focused on metrics and you can justify that the job board is driving you, qualified candidates. Then you should absolutely take advantage. It is still one of the best ways to be able to get those candidates using that to traffic that the job board brings.
I would say that maybe if you are not seeing the performance from your job board or posting, it might be you and not them. So take a look at your job postings, are they really marketing the material, do they deter people or compel them to apply.
It could be something simple like putting an application called "action button" at the top of the posting on your career site or the job boards. So put it in multiple places, make it easy for those people to be able to apply.
Don't make it so hard that it's going to take two hours to complete an application.
Give people more information about the company, a video, photo, a place for them to go to learn more.
Because It's not just a single job posting that I think any more that is normally going to push that candidate to complete what I say is a buying process. They are buying into the organization, they want to know more.
Its many other things that lead to that moment, so you need to have all of your marketing assets pieced together so that when they do press apply. They know that they have done the research and they know that it's an organization that they want to align themselves with.
That is hard for staffing companies. But you have your own unique culture and experience and expertise and talent. So that can come through even if you are posting on behalf of another company. Talking about what makes you unique.
But it's the little things. The work ahead of time that I think is really what makes a job board and a job hosting still be a great way to engage top candidates.
Q: What's the book you are reading right now and sort of why are you enjoying it?
Jessica Miller-Merrell: So I have been reading "Barking up the wrong tree" an audiobook. It's like a different way of thinking a different way of doing business, kind of in a way how to embrace the weird and use that as a competitive advantage.
I am definitely not everyone's cup of tea and I definitely think that the way I view the world is that we all have our unique perspective. And I like this because it has a lot of just good small nuggets of wisdom in it, how to think about work or business differently.
One of my favourites is "Hostage Negotiation" and how that came about. Typically you make a demand and if they didn't meet it by this time the police go in and shoot up the place. And it was resulting in so many deaths and problems. But two police officers. I think in Oakland. Decided to try having a conversation and getting to know these guys maybe share their point of view and have a relationship with them.
What they found through the book is that by doing those things like having a conversation, building that trust, building that human interaction. It decreased the likelihood that these hostage situations were escalating to the point where people were dying.
So the book for me is full of good nuggets of how to see the world differently and embrace your weird. And grow your business in a way in that is unique and suits.
Matt: Sounds awesome. Okay, I definitely have to check that out. We were referring to this earlier. I think it's important that we all have our own opinion and voice and that we are confident and prepared enough to share that.
And that sounds like a book that applies to that, so. Wonderful, thank you very much, Jessica. I appreciate you taking the time to answer all these questions.
You can also find and follow Jessica on LinkedIn and Twitter.

Apparently a ground fire swept through part of the park not too long ago. New plants were growing up out of it though, and it didn't destroy all of the existing plants (it looked like it just burned the already dry grass and that was all.) Taken from the Longhorn Trail in the White Ranch Park area just outside of Golden, Colorado.

Mcdonald's Ethical Issues
From what we have read and interpreted from the case, the main issue is the ethical criticism of the fast food giant, McDonald, in Europe. By referring to the case, the organizational ethical issues which are filled around McDonald consist of food health, ill-treatment of animals, exploitation of children, and destruction of rainforests. Besides, anti-globalization, anti-American, anti-McDonald's activism, and Europe governments had also been the concerns and ethical challenges for the fast food giant.
First of all, we will touch the field of food health. In this situation, McDonald's as the world's leading fast food company has inevitably been first in the firing line. The problem in obesity and health eating has confronted the …show more content…
Criticizes / Comments
Based on the analysis, as a fast-food giant in the international market, the company should be more responsible in their production of food. It should concern about the nutrition in their burgers, fries, and beverages. As most of their customers are young teenagers and children, health issue can be the major factor in determining its business future. From the case, McDonald was irresponsible in delivering their nutrition information to their customers. They give insufficient knowledge about their food. Thus, such actions lead to the unhealthy food choice by the youngster. Moreover, the misuse of the advertisement in exploiting the children is also an action that

Baby Foot is designed to remove the unsightly, dead skin cells on your feet. That skin builds up over time and contributes to numerous problems associated with the soles of your feet. Dead skin cells accumulate due to pressure and friction from ordinary activities such as standing, exercising, and certain shoes. In many cases, feet become cracked and painful.
In the past, frequent use of foot files and razors were used to "remove" the dead skin on your feet. However, this was a temporary fix because as we now know from recent research, filing generates more friction to the soles of your feet which in turn creates more dead skin.
Baby Foot is scientifically formulated and contains 16 types of natural extracts which exfoliate and moisturize at the same time. The Fruit acids including Glycolic and Critic allow dead skin to peel and the Alcohol makes dead cells soft. The Salicylic, Lactic, and Isopropyl stimulate a flaking effect which allows the fruit acids to penetrate into the layers of dead skin cells. After peeling is complete, your feet are reborn just like a baby's, giving you healthy, more beautiful feet. Be prepared to peel for approximately 2 weeks. Therefore, the best time to do this is definitely not summertime.
Baby Foot has not been tested on animals and does not contain any animal related ingredients.
Add on to any treatment that is 60 minutes or longer for $35. Best done with a facial. If you add on to a massage, you will need to remove the peel once you get home.

Southeast Asia contains a numbers of waterways ranging from small rivers to huge lakes and many are exciting and thrilling to explore. But with so many of them how do you know which ones to visit. So at AsiaTrips we have complied a list of the top Rivers and Lakes that you should have on your bucket list when visiting this region.
Mekong River
Undoubtebly the undisputed King of the waterways in Southeast Asia is the Mekong River. Spanning almost 3,000 miles the Mekong starts from China's and flows through Tibet, Burma, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam before it merges into the South China Sea. It is the world's 12th-longest river and the 7th-longest in Asia. The river is famous for its huge variety of fish, including carp and catfish. The Mekong basin is one of the richest areas of biodiversity in the world. Only the Amazon boasts a higher level of biodiversity. For thousands of years the Mekong River has been an important source of livelihood for people and goods between the many towns situated along its banks and continues to be so to this day.
The Tonle Sap
The Tonle Sap is referred to variously as both a river and a lake – and in fact, both descriptions are correct. When the volume of the Mekong River quadruples in the May-October rainy season, the Tonle Sap absorbs the excess water and releases it gradually back into the river once the dry season resumes. The natural reservoir can expand to an area of 10,500 sq km, while the water level can reach up to 12 m. By ensuring fertile fields and plentiful stocks of fish, this unique natural phenomenon transforms the lake into one of Cambodia's best-stocked pantries. As a home to more than 200 species of fish, 23 species of snake and 13 species of terrapin, it is little wonder that this lake and river system was designated a UNESCO biosphere in 1997.
Chao Phraya River
The Chao Phraya is one of Thailand's largest rivers and is closely linked with the history of the kingdom. It begins in Nakhon Sawan at the confluence of the Ping and Yom and flows more than 370 km to Bangkok, where, along with the city's criss-crossing canals (Klongs), it serves as a major thoroughfare. The river is popularly used by tourists for dinner cruises or leisurely journeys to Ayutthaya.
Irrawaddy River
The Irrawaddy River or Ayeyarwady River is a river that flows from north to south through Myanmar. It is the country's largest river and most important commercial waterway. Its valley forms the historical, cultural, and economic heartland of Myanmar. Because the Irrawaddy delta is one of the world's major rice-growing areas, rice is a major item of commerce on the river. Also transported are other foodstuffs, petroleum, cotton, and local commodities. The Irrawaddy river is home to a large diversity of animals, including about 43 fish species.The most well-known of these species is the Irrawaddy dolphin.
For more information about any of these rivers then email firstname.lastname@example.com or visit www.asiatrips.travel.

Your personal home barista comes to life with this voice-enabled coffee machine.
An open-source, private-by-design coffee machine that keeps your favorite coffee and caffeination schedule private.
Your voice is a powerful thing. Voice is the most natural interface between humans and machines. The practicalities of voice means it will find a home in almost any industry or organization, chiefly because of its unique advantages over other interfaces — it's intuitive, hands and eyes-free, and accessible. Your voice is also a biometric indicator, as unique as a retina scan or fingerprint, or even your DNA. Your voice, and the things you say, should be kept private.
When the devices around you no longer require a lengthy operation manual, but rather, require only a voice command, this unlocks an environment where technology disappears into the background, so that you can regain the freedom to spend quality time with the people you care about. That is in fact our mission at Snips, to make technology disappear.
Case-in-point: this voice-activated coffee machine. You can ask it to make you a double espresso or a flat white, to pour you some hot water or even to turn itself off.
It's purely a demo project, but at our Snips office in Paris, we've grown used to the convenience, and so we wanted to make it as easy as possible for anyone interested to replicate it at home.
WARNING — This tutorial outlines the procedure we used to modify our coffee machine to be controlled via home automation. It deals with modifying a main electricity device which can be dangerous if performed incorrectly. Information here may be incomplete, inaccurate and unsafe. Proceed with caution. No liability accepted.
Step 1: Bill of Materials
Here's what hardware you need to have a voice-activated coffee machine ready to work in your home. We've put links to find things at good prices. If the links are not valid anymore please send us an email and we'll help find replacements.
Important parts:
- Delonghi Ecam 22.140B (or similar) — link / ~ $347
- Raspberry Pi Model 3B + — link / ~ $39
- Raspberry power supply — link / ~ $8
- 4GB sd card class 10 — link / ~ $8.30
- ReSpeaker 2 Pi Hat — link / ~ $9.90
- USB>mini cable — link / ~ $4.99
- Arduino nano — link / ~ $22.20
- 8-channel relay board — link / ~ $8.98
- Stepper motor + control board — link / ~ $5.74
- Coupler 8x8 — link / ~ $10
- Some 18 AWG wires (ideally red & black) — link / ~ $14.99
- 2x M3x15 screws — link / ~$10
- 2x M3x45 screws — link / ~$4.99
Miscellaneous parts:
- a HotGlue Pistol
- a drill and some small-sized bits
- a dremel
- some heat-shrinkable shealth
- a soldering iron
- a Philips screwdriver
- a Torx TS 20 screwdriver
3D printed parts :
- 3D printed case for the stepper and 3D printed part for the coupler pin — link (If you don't have a 3D printer, that's ok! You can use 3D Hubs services)
Step 2: Disassembling
Unscrew the 5 screws at the back of the coffee machine.
Then remove the right and left side of the coffee machine by sliding it backward.
On the back, remove the two screws that hold the top case (do not try to remove it just yet).
On the right side, you will see a screw that holds the top case. Unscrew it, and repeat that step for the left side.
On the front of the coffee machine, pull the steam "main switch" toward you to remove it.
You can now slowly remove the top case and detach the heating plate wires to remove it entirely. You could also just leave the cover on top of the machine, as we will not need to access the machine from the top.
Now let's focus on the front panel. Unscrews 2 screws on the left and right front panel.
Remove the 4 screws on the back side of the panel. Beware of the two small grey plastic pins on the left and right side. You need to gently push them to be able to remove the front cover.
Gently remove the top right connector from the PCB.
Step 3: Front Panel Soldering
Proceed with caution at this step.
With a dremel, drill 5 small holes where you see red circles. Proceed with caution as we don't want to cut a copper trace. The drill should be big enough to let two 18 AWG wires go through.
Solder your wires as indicated on the picture. Some switch pins are common, but for the sake of clarity we preferred having a separate set of wires per switch. It is important that you mark each pair of wires so that you know to which switch it belongs.
Step 4: Front Panel Reassembly
Make sure the wires does not prevent the switch cover panel from being correctly in place.
Drill some holes on the back cover, it will be easier for all the wires to go through.
With a dremel or a manual file, remove a half circle on the front cover as well as on the white plastic part above it to let the Stepper wires go through.
Place the 3D printed part on the front cover and mark with a pen the two spots where you need to drill. As a reference we indicated it on the pictures with the two red circles (2.8mm holes).
Screw the PCB back in place as well as all the different elements of the front panel.
You will need to extend the Stepper wires length by approximately 8 inches. Make sure to use similar wire colors for some point of reference.
Caution: Gently insert the 3D printed plastic pin in the potentiometer.
Screw the stepper on the 3D part with M3x15 screws.
Add the coupler at the tip of the stepper (do not clamp it just yet). Screw the 3D part to the front panel using M3X45 screws. The coupler must be correctly aligned with the 3D pin.
… and all wires should now be on the right side of the coffee machine.
You can then screw the whole front part back to the coffee machine. Don't clamp the coupler just yet though!
Step 5: Electronics
First and foremost, let us explain how this works in general terms:
As a user, you would start the process by triggering the wake word ("Hey Snips"), you would then pronounce a sentence like "I would love two short strong coffees please").
Snips (on the Raspberry Pi) would receive your intent.
Then, through a Python code, a figure that correspond to the coffee you selected is sent to the Arduino.
This figure is then received by the Arduino, which corresponds to a specific order for coffee type and intensity. In this specific example, the important data within that figure would be : "two", "short", "strong").
The Arduino would then send a command to the stepper to adjust the coffee intensity, and then activate the correct relay based on the user intent.
Schematics: connecting all the wires/jumper
Hint: we strongly suggest you to glue the jumper/wires onto the Arduino/relay pin so that wires don't disconnect while manipulating it.
As you can see, the stepper motor is connected to its drive board, which is itself connected to the Arduino. The Arduino is connected to the 8-relay board and each relay is connected to the coffee machine front-panel PCB — couldn't find a green PCB :) —
Once all the wires are connected, place the relay board and Arduino nano on the right side of the coffee machine.
Make sure that the Arduino and board aren't touching any metallic parts. The best would be to isolate them with some electrical tape.
Step 6: Software
A: Arduino
Here is the repository link and code:
B: The Raspberry Snips setup
Make sure you have your Raspberry Pi 3 with a Raspbian Stretch Lite installed. You can find instructions to install it here.
Then, setting up the Snips Voice Platform on your Raspberry Pi 3 is a two-step process:
Step 1: Configure network access
The Raspberry Pi needs internet access to pull from the Snips Platform.
Insert the SD card in your computer and add the following file
wpa_supplicant.conf at the root of the
boot volume of the SD card (do not forget to update the
ssid and
psk keys):
country=FRctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdevupdate_config=1network={ssid="Your WiFi network name"psk="Your WiFi network password"}
If you're looking for more details about this step, please refer to the official Raspberry documentation
Step 2: Enable SSH
Enable SSH by adding an empty file
ssh at the root of the
boot volume on your SD card. Insert the SD card into the Raspberry. It will boot in about 20 seconds. If you run into issues check this link.
You can now access your Raspberry from your computer using
ssh email@example.com
If you have several Raspberry Pi's on the same network, we recommend that you change their hostname or connect to them using their IP.
Step 3: Install SAM
In this step, you will install Sam. Sam is a CLI (Command Line Interface) that you will be using to create, manage, and deploy your assistants, to configure your hardware, to view the logs of your assistants on the Raspberry, as well as to run your application locally for quick prototyping.
This part of the tutorial is running from your computer, in the terminal. You'll need to have Node and NPM installed. You can get them from the Node.js website. You need at least Node v7.5.0, so check your node version with
node -v. Your Raspberry Pi must be connected to your network.
Windows users need to additionnaly install Git. You can get it from Git's website.
From a command shell on your local machine, run the following command:
sudo npm install -g snips-sam
You'll be asked to input your computer password first.
You are now able to run the
sam command from your command shell.
Detecting your Raspberry Pi device on the network
Let's try to find nearby Raspberry Pi devices on your network, using the command
sam devices:
sam devicesScanning Raspberry Pi devices on the network...Found 1 device:- raspberrypi (192.168.9.2)
If Sam does not find any device, make sure the Raspberry Pi and your computer are on the same network. If you have any problems, check out our Network Setup Guide.
Connecting to your device
Connect to your device (you may use your device IP or hostname, and in the latter case, make sure to append
.local to the hostname):
sam connect raspberrypi.local? Enter username for the device: pi? Enter password for the device: [hidden]Connected to raspberrypi.local
You are now connected to your Snips device!
This is not mandantory but if you're curious, you can check at any time the device status with
sam status:
sam statusConnected to device raspberrypi.localOS version ................... Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)Status ....................... Snips Platform not installedYou may install the Snips Platform using sam initTo install specific components, check the help using sam init --help
Step 4: Installing Snips
Now that Sam is set up and connected to your Raspberry Pi, we can install the Snips Platform on it.
The Snips Platform is what runs your assistant. Listening to your voice from a microphone, it transcribes what you say into text, extracts the meaning of it, and performs an action accordingly. You can read more about this in the Snips Platform Documentation.
Start the installer using
sam init:
sam initInstalling Snips Platform components. This may take a few minutes...Successfully installed Snips Platform components
This will take a few minutes, after which the device will reboot. Once ready, you can check again the status of your device. You should see the
Status field updated accordingly, as well as a list of newly installed components:
Please note that some services' status may be different from the example below. Most of them will become active later in the installation process, as soon as an assistant is installed.
sam statusConnected to device raspberrypi.localOS version ................... Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)Installed assistant .......... Not installedStatus ....................... Installed, not runningService status:snips-analytics .............. 0.55.2 (not running)snips-asr .................... 0.55.2 (not running)snips-audio-server ........... 0.55.2 (running)snips-dialogue ............... 0.55.2 (not running)snips-hotword ................ 0.55.2 (not running)snips-nlu .................... 0.55.2 (not running)snips-skill-server ........... 0.55.2 (not running)snips-tts .................... 0.55.2 (running)
Step 5: Testing your microphone
You can check that your microphone is working:
sam test microphoneTesting microphoneSay something in the microphone, then press Enter......
Assuming you have a speaker, if you can clearly hear what you just said, you can move on without further microphone configuration. If you can't hear yourself, start the interactive microphone setup guide:
sam setup audioStarting microphone setup...What microphone do you use?[1] Generic USB[2] ReSpeaker 7-Mic Array...
Once you are satisfied that your hardware setup is working, you are ready to move on to the next step, where you will deploy your coffee assistant. But first, make sure you give the right to the snips-skills:
sudo usermod -a -G dialout _snips-skills
Step 6 — Installing your coffee assistant.
If you haven't already, make sure to create an account on the Snips console.
Once your account is created, we are going to create an Assistant. Give it a name, and select English.
Now that your assistant is created, it is time to add the coffee machine app to it.
then click on the "Add apps" button to confirm. Your assistant is now loaded with the coffee app you've selected, and is ready to be deployed to the your device. We will deploy the assistant with
On the terminal, login to the console with your credentials:
sam login? Enter email used on the console: email@example.com? Enter password used on the console: [hidden]
Then, you can install an assistant created with your account:
sam install assistantFetching assistants done? Choose the assistant you wish to install on the device (Use arrow keys)❯ mycoffee Assistant
It will then deploy the assistant to your device.
Downloading assistantFetching assistants doneNLU training doneASR training done✔ Deploying assistant to raspberrypi.local...✔ Snips assistant is now running. Say hey_snips to start!
Once you have the assistant installed, you can show the logs and test your assistant with:
sam watch
To exit, type
Step 7 — Test it
- plug the Arduino USB cable to the RPI
- turn on the Raspberry Pi
- turn on the coffee machine (and wait for it to finish its cleaning cycle)
- "Hey Snips … make me two coffees please" … and ☕☕.

Big Blue Chapter 1
There are hundreds, maybe thousands of comic books sporting super-heroines with big boobs, but no one ever makes a story where the heroine's mammoth mams ARE her super-power.
The main character, Yaelin (a.k.a. "Big Blue") is a blue woman with gigantic breasts. This is designed to be a big boob comic to the Nth degree.
Our book features gratuitous, far-out nudity and some sex. It is intended for readers eighteen years of age and older.
In issue one, Yaelin does what so many superheroes do and foils a bank robbery, but unlike other superheroes, she uses her bodacious breasts to pummel the would-be criminals.
Note that the artwork is PG for the purposes of displaying it on itch.io. The actual book is uncensored.
Here's What Readers of Chapter 1 Had to Say
I absolutely ADORE it. The art design is brilliant . . .I absolutely adore your writing too.
-Jeff K.

Going to Sea in a Sieve
Edward Lear's nonsense poem "The Jumblies" is among the most lighthearted pieces of poetry in history, describing a group of playful creatures who go to sea in a sieve. But could there be a deeper meaning to this poem?

Time For An Honest Life Inventory Of What Supports YOU!
"The energies now are such that they will no longer support anything that is not in authenticity.
If you have something in your life that jars with your energy & feels uneasy you will now find it harder & harder to support it & to function.
The Universe is supporting our true purpose. Our true joy & authenticity.
Therefore any RELATIONSHIP… JOB… SITUATION… that does not magnify your life-force & truth will become more difficult. The resistance will feel greater.
An example of this is the global arising of conflict within family structures. It is becoming more obvious & magnified. If you have a situation where family members basically are not in energetic alignment, the differences are now becoming more obvious. It is not enough to be connected in family just because you are birth family. There is a need to feel some energetic connection or shared resonance otherwise these structures will become much harder to support.
Healthy boundaries are now required more than ever! Self honouring is now necessary because the polarity of energy is becoming more pronounced. It is also important to stay mindful that judgement is not a part of this. Staying centred in love & forgiveness while we create a life that supports the smooth & flowing non-resistance of a happy life is the order of the day!
Where do you meet resistance in your life?
A Partner? A Job? A family member?
If this resistance is an ongoing, pronounced challenge that has been building over a long period now is the time to take action. What do you need to do dissolve the resistance & allow for a smooth life flow? Sometimes it is necessary to separate our energy from what no longer supports us before the resistance becomes so difficult that is creates major obstacles in our life.
For example; when people do not integrate the need for creating change when our Soul is yearning for it sometimes the Physical Body will create an illness or condition so we can no longer ignore or avoid the issue that we are being asked to address…
You do not want to get to this point!
Our body, afterall, is working in conjunction with our Highest good to help us…
So I ask you today to do an honest appraisal or inventory of your life.
Stop the rush of life. Sit mindfully still & see what arises in your consciousness. Ask your Higher Self to communicate it's truth. You are worth it. The influx of High frequency energy washing over us all & upgrading this planet, will support you & your ultimate growth.
Please trust this process.
The TIME is NOW!"
Above is a timely message brought through from the Angelic Realms.
If you require any support in your life to work with a life issue…
My Online Life Transformation Sessions create profound healing & change wherever there has been resistance. This applies to all aspects of life Job, relationships, health… And Divine guidance comes through. If you require any support or guidance to move through a life issue that is not supporting your true joy please contact me & these Sessions will accelerate your Soul towards your true authentic joy without resistance.

Our Morris/Popular Culture show was reviewed in London City Nights:
"When I saw Ivor Lloyd and Jake Harrison emerge with bells attached to their knees and an accordion in tow my heart sank a little bit more, but I very quickly warmed to them. Standing atop a blue stool Ivor delivered a neatly clipped and vaguely Pythonesque treatise on "The Influence of West Northumbrian Morris Dancing in Popular Culture" interspersed with snippets of dancing."
"Two things made this unlikely setup work; firstly was that both Ivor and Jake are actually damn good at what they do; the sound of the accordion nicely evocative of old-fashioned entertainment and the dancing planned and executed smoothly. Any bozo can flail their arms wildly in the air, but there was control and method to this flailing – adding a nice sense of ritual to the piece." – London City Nights

Ohio Lottery
Ohio Lottery Campaign photographed by Keith Berr
The Ohio Lottery has an exciting new television commercial coming our way. I followed the film crew here in Cleveland to produce the stills for a new KENO ad campaign.
It was a great day shooting in Treemont at the Treehouse and then moving over to The Lite Bistro in Ohio City to photograph the guys and their car outside of the restaurant.I really enjoy working with the film crews, utilizing their lighting, adding my own and coming up with images that are different from the film spot but can still relate to the over all concept.

It is time to go to my son.
Nen waited to hear those words from the Vasilissa for fifteen rotations, since that time the snow wouldn't stop falling. But now that he's about to meet Anani, the love of his life, again, he's afraid. What if Anani doesn't feel the same anymore?
Anani, the guardian of the water element, was only seventeen when he was banished from his mother's court. Heartbroken he couldn't be with the one he loved, he lost control over his emotions and his power. No matter what he tried, the snow wouldn't stop, and as a last resort, he was sent away.
When they finally meet again, Anani is hopeful but disillusioned. The law that kept them apart hasn't changed. How will they be able to find their happily ever after?
And what happens when the snow starts falling again?

A third knock hushes the forest even more. Not a single insect can be heard. Is the wildlife waiting for me to leave? Is he? Would he answer if I call out to him? Or will the sound of my voice make him even more resolved to stay behind the closed door?
Before I have time to come to a decision, the door is yanked open and he appears in the opening.
The Vasilieu.
Oh, great Spirit, still my heart!
He is magnificent!
He is willowy tall and has grown so much these last fifteen rotations, reaching me to my nose, standing over a head taller than any other member of his family. He's dressed like a commoner in a tunic and pants even plainer than my own—where's his kaftan? The clothes hug his body and reveal every long sinewy muscle in his legs and arms.READ MORE
Hair as white as newly fallen snow is parted in the middle and hangs straight to his waist. His nose, slightly upturned, gives him a mischievous look. His pale lips, imperceptibly darker than his skin color, are pillowy but set in a severe line.
But it's his eyes that draw my attention. Pale blue eyes staring at me as if he can't believe what he's seeing. After a few heartbeats, they widen, and he lets out a gasp.
A wave of emotions hit me square in the chest. What was muted just moments before grows into an avalanche as though he let them loose, or lost control of them. They overwhelm me; I physically feel them, poking and prodding my breast, invading my heart. I stagger a few steps backward and sink to my knees without hesitation. I don't avert my gaze. "Vasilieu."
He narrows his eyes. "Do not call me that. You know my name. Use it."
The barrage of his emotions intensifies, making it hard to breathe but easy for me to identify them. Disbelief. Uncertainty. Hope.
Yes, definitely happiness.
"Anani," I whisper. Never before have I uttered his name, not even alone in the night. Saying it now is terrifying and freeing all at once. And it feels right, as though my lips are meant to say it. Whisper it in his ear as our limbs are entwined and sweaty.
He surges forward and throws himself on his knees before me. Cups my cheeks and lets his thumbs caress my beard. His gaze flits over my face as if though he's trying to take in all the changes that have happened since we saw each other last. The crow's feet by my eyes. The corners of my mouth that are downturned from the lack of smiling. The first gray at my temples in a sea of black, bristly hair.
I'm an older, more tired-looking version of the man who watched him walk away all those rotations ago, while he's more breathtaking than ever.
"Vasilieu. Don't kneel before me. It's not proper."
"Nen. Oh Nen. Is it really you?" he asks as if he didn't hear my plea. His hands explore my face; the fingertips linger in my wrinkles and lines, sending sparkles through my body. He tugs lightly on my beard and gazes into my eyes. I wonder what he sees.
"Vasilieu. Anani." The second time I use his name is even more momentous. "Stand, I beg you."
He sits back on his heels. "What are you doing here?" His disbelief melts away. Clearly, he trusts his own eyes and what he can see before him. Confusion takes its place. With grace, he rises to his feet, bends down to grab my hands, and pulls me to standing with little help from me. Spirit, he is strong!
He doesn't let go.COLLAPSE

Specifications Opel Moka
For a long time after the appearance of the players in the class of a sub-compact crossovers representatives of Opel silent, but fuels the interest of the rumors of a new model. And here's the first audience in Detroit was shown a new Buick Encore, which preceded the emergence of a new crossover from Opel. And a little later in Geneva in 2012 was presented to the serial sample of car Opel Mokka.
Mocha, as his "relatives" concern was built on the basis of a hatchback Corsa, exceeding it in size, as one of the main rivals – Nissan Juke. And now more learn from Opel Moka specifications - photos of which You can see below.
Geometric indicators of the car
Crossover from Opel has a very deceptive forms, which are perfectly hide his small dimensions:
Dimensions Opel has exactly the same dimensions Skoda Yeti, but from the standpoint of the Czech crossover looks larger. Due to the great potential of the platform, Moka longer than its donor Corsa 28 see, it says about the great versatility of used "base". But the main thing that Opel bigger "beetle» 145 mm, after all, it sees the main competitor.
Also note the features of Opel Moka technical specifications: clearance model typical "кроссоверная» - high, which is not surprising in 190 mm ground clearance, by the standards of a city that is a lot of and slightly more than that of Nisan beetle (180 mm). Trunk little Opel's not a huge class: 533 liter, which is twice more than the "beetle». And if you fold the rear seat backrest – you can take away 1372 "liters", the outfit. The only caveat of this trunk is малоразмерное spare wheel.
A separate commendable and suspension кросоовера. Constructed again she had the opportunity to adapt to a change in the road surface, due to this reaction on the steering wheel transparent in all conditions. By the way, at the helm of the present variable force depending on the speed and road conditions. Even in the basic version the bottom of the vehicle has a powerful protective elements, warning the car damage from road debris.
Engines and transmission
The "baby" Opel solid set of power units, which differs in Russia and abroad:
A system of full drive
Full drive at the MOCA has a simple, yet highly efficient scheme: front axle with differential, propeller shaft, control unit, multi-plate clutch and the plug rear axle. Control unit collects information from numerous sensors and continuously evaluates the position of the wheel, traction, and many other parameters on which the driver does not even suspect. The pluggable electronics Fourwheel drive without the owner – classical solution for urban crossover.
By default, on asphalt Moka front-wheel, but when you change the pavement and slipping drive wheel torque can be transported to the rear axle up to 50%. Electronic coupler connects the rear-wheel-drive gently and delicately, improving behavior of cars on the road. All wheel drive transmission weighs 65 kg
Not to mention the huge brake discs with a diameter of front – 300 mm and 268 mm rear). Software Моки are equipped with advanced, which includes a system of ascent and descent from the mountain, and underride system.
Picking and rates
By modern standards, Opel Moka small price difference and just a 3-configuration - from 729 000 970 000 R, but it cost only basic versions, which can be increased many available options:
Opel Mocca – another fighter in the sub-compact segment SUVs. The model is interesting, but appeared on the market later than the majority of key players and needed to win the place under the sun". The Opel Mocha specifications and price are very competitive, especially with a diesel engine and this is confirmed by statistics of sales in Europe, but in Russia Mocha while not in high demand.

Although they possess been called PAKs also, Pak 4C6 differ Pdgfd considerably in their structural firm and control (15). Pak3 is certainly component of group A, the associates of which are effectors of the Rho GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42 (16). The mouse gene is certainly located on placement qF2 on mouse A chromosome and includes 16 code exons. Pak3 provides been previously examined in the human brain because of its function in X-linked nonsyndromic perceptive handicap (17).

Morphometric Evaluation Quantification was performed on pancreas areas every 50 meters (embryos and infants) and 2 mm (adults). For nucleic discoloration, the number of cells was counted using ImageJ software physically. For cytoplasmic discoloration, the immunopositive area was reported to the total DAPI+ area of pancreas using ImageJ or Metamorph softwares. Quantitative RT-PCR Studies Total RNA was singled out in Tri Reagent (Invitrogen). Total RNA (1 g) was utilized for cDNA activity using the Transcriptor Change Transcriptase (Roche).
