Maybe not that new, it actually was posted last May, but that just shows I don't check Goodreads as often as I probably should. The reviewer is James Agombar and what's especially nice is he offers a detailed story by story description, though admittedly with possibly one or two spoilers. Also some stories don't go over as well with him as others — two going as low as two stars out of five! — though he admits that those might be a matter of taste. And, best of all, his overall score for the book is a full five!
As he concludes: . . . I love the way James Dorr crafts his stories and the strangeness fuses well with his style and clarity. This mixture represents just what he is capable of in terms of diversity and I'd recommend this anthology to anybody if they are wanting something different to the run of the mill blueprint that publishers seem to want with short stories nowadays. An excellent and strange journey awaits you in top literal form. But see for yourself by pressing here (from which you can also click the book's title at the top for its main Goodreads page, including links for purchasing should one so desire).
Smart Rhino Publications December 1-8 Kindle Countdown Sale Includes Zippered Flesh 3; Cthulhu Christmas Pre-Order, Live Reading December 1
Also in the Smart Rhino sale, INSIDIOUS ASSASSINS, which has a story of mine in it, "The Labyrinth," about myths and terror in modern-day Crete. In all, eight books will be included along with that and ZIPPERED FLESH 3 (with my "Golden Age" closing out the contents, see November 10, et al.), the others being the original ZIPPERED FLESH, THE BOX JUMPER, GREEN TSUNAMI, BROKEN: STORIES OF DAMAGED PSYCHES, and THE NEW ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER AND HUCK FINN (both Adult and YA editions). This will be for Kindle editions only, starting at $0.99 each at midnight, Friday, December 1 and ending at midnight December 8. But the thing is, the way these countdown sales work, the prices will gradually increase until they reach the original list price, so it's best to buy early — again, starting midnight, Friday, December 1.
(For an early look at these, as well as some non-sale titles, one can press here.)
Then also this Friday, December 1, DEADMAN'S TOME CTHULHU CHRISTMAS SPECIAL AND OTHER LOVECRAFTIAN YULETIDE TALES (cf. November 26, et al.) will be officially released, to celebrate which . . . well, let's let Editor Jesse Dedman explain in his own words: This Friday Marchese and I will host a live drunk reading where I'll consume a mass amount of shots. The amount of shots I consume is totally up to the number of pre-orders we receive! Can my liver take it? Will I wake up with regret? Will I wake up in the front yard completely naked, again? Let's find out. He goes on to say you can listen to the reading yourself Friday night at 10 p.m. CST by using this link, or catch the recorded version of the show afterwards on Spreaker, iTunes, YouTube, and other podcast apps. But to reiterate, the degree of drunkenness he plans to attain is dependent on how many pre-orders CTHULHU CHRISTMAS SPECIAL receives, for which (if one wishes to egg him on, or just order the book early for yourself) press here.
So, okay, this is another teeny horror/dark humor poem I read at the Bloomington Writers Guild's "Last Sunday Poetry" last week (cf. September 24), but this being the afternoon of October's "First Sunday Prose" (more on which later this p.m. or Monday morning), why not? Actually it came up while perusing "Bloodizabeth's Meat & Greet Dinner Party" on SLASHERMONSTER.COM and seeing one comment mentioning The Beatlles and "I Am the Walrus." So having this variant, as it were, in the quiver, why not shoot it into the "Comments" section as a comment upon the comment? (And thus here, as an "extra," for you.)
i have a walrus mustache,
& am hot for mermaids
Here's one I blundered on via Facebook's ELDER SIGNS PRESS site, dated March 9 and touting a two-week only sale on Amazon. Today being the 16th, I think that would mean there's a week to go, ending March 23. So for a happy Saint Patrick's Day Eve, check out these deals for DARK HORIZONS (Amazon's price is 12.95, but individual new copy offers start at $9.67 as of this writing) and STREET MAGICK (Amazon price $9.21) and, as a bonus, give the figure on STREET MAGICK's cover a green suit and hat, and it could look a little bit like a leprechaun.
To check it all out, press here for the ELDER SIGNS PRESS Facebook site, then scroll down just a tad for the sale
announcement with links to Amazon for both books — just under the listing for early orders for TOMBS: A CHRONICLE OF LATTER-DAY TIMES OF EARTH, in fact, with its own link to Amazon should you wish to indulge while you're at it! My dogs in these donnybrooks are "Bottles" for STREET MAGICK, of vampiric doings in the late 1950s Boston area, complete with Cold War paranoia, and "Dark of the Moon" in DARK HORIZONS, of an international expedition to the Moon's back side, combined with a dollop of H.P. Lovecraft and Russian myth to become dark indeed. Also (ahem!) while the books haven't gotten too many reviews on Amazon yet — and let this be a *hint* to readers, if you like a book you do your favorite authors a favor by sending reviews in — one review under each title (cf. "Mr. Vlesco" for the one for STREET MAGICK) singles my stories out for special mention.
THE BOOK OF BLASPHEMOUS WORDS (see January 19, 16) is the one about mankind's relationship with its gods, sometimes sweet, sometimes sour. Or maybe for our purposes here, most often sour. My song in this sin fest is a poem this time, a "story in verse" about a dead boy named Little Willie called "Tit for Tat" (originally published in GHOSTS: REVENGE, 2015). And now with publication due soon, Adrian Ludens, whose story "Hero Worship" will be in the book as well, has shared its contents list from publisher A Murder of Storytellers, along with this flattering comment about three of its contributors:
Some very talented authors lined up for this anthology. Especially excited to see Joseph Shelton, John Biggs and James Dorr included. Never been disappointed by any of their stories. Can't wait to read this!

. . . the idea of faith is more general in the sense that it covers any devotion to a higher being or spiritual power. It could be anything, from a religion-based god to alien overlords to the Force. The point is that you believe in something outside yourself that, in some way, shapes, influences, or even controls the nature of our world. Yet somehow, regardless of the faith, the path to getting there is always the same: you have to hear the call, and then you have to take conscious steps to overcome that adversity within and without to reach its source, taking you from a non-believer to a believer.
Well, no, I haven't seen ARRIVAL yet, I tend to wait sometimes for what I think may be important films to be out long enough on DVD to bring the price down to buy for myself, but that's my problem. The above, from "Communication and Faith in ARRIVAL" by Michael Moreci, on TOR.COM a day or two back, piqued my interest however (cf. below, for instance, November 3, August 26 ; September 17 2015): the question of faith, belief, in science fiction as well as, perhaps to be more expected, in fantasy and horror. The need for an author — or reader — to know a people's traditions in order to build their world.
Or that's how I see it. Moreci also brings up Joseph Campbell (the hero's journey), and the movies STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE and CONTACT; while in my own writings I might note the upcoming TOMBS: A CHRONICLE OF LATTER-DAY TIMES OF EARTH as well as, at least in part, THE TEARS OF ISIS. And in any event I may look into ARRIVAL myself sooner than I had expected. Moreci's critique, on the other hand, may be read right now here.
Of all the genres, science fiction and fantasy are the ones where humans can tackle their deepest societal problems and thought experiments. Because of this, it's a natural place for people to explore ideas about religion, faith, and the meaning of life. . . So begins Leah Schnelbach's "19 Positive Approaches to Religion in Sci-Fi and Fantasy" on TOR.COM, brought via today's post-Halloween email. I thought it would be interesting to look at some examples of books and short stories that have tackled religious questions in respectful and positive ways, she continues and, yes, "The Nine Billion Names of God," a short story by Arthur C. Clarke is included, as is his "The Star." Also there are Roger Zelazny with LORD OF LIGHT, A CANTICLE FOR LEIBOWITZ by Walter M. Miller, a couple of shorts by Ray Bradbury. . . . Well, and many others, some of which I've never heard of myself but may now consider looking into.
But why religion? That is, isn't science fiction (at least) in some way opposed to that? Maybe, maybe not, but I would suggest that even if not on the surface, the people in a future — or a fantastic — society will still have some unexplained beliefs, that rely on faith. Perhaps it's just custom, the way things are done, but for example (and yes, this is a plug, my novel-in-stories due out next year cf. October 31, et many al., and some stories in my other books as well) in my TOMBS stories there's an implicit belief in the existence of souls, of some kind of life after death — there's even some description of the nature of souls, how they themselves are made up of parts, and how souls of lovers might be later reunited. Or in horror in general, if one accepts vampires or ghosts or other supernatural beings, again a subtext of belief is implied, whether in formal or informal terms. So call it world building — or adding texture. But even if not overt in a story, religious assumptions may lurk in the background.
And of course, in some, they may be in the foreground, for more on which (and don't forget to scroll through the comments too) press here.
Yes, that's right, the origin of everything with today's discovery via the internet by Edira Putri, "The Weirdest Creation Myths from Religions Around the World" on RANKER.COM, with bringing-to-my-attention credit going to Gene Stewart. So getting right to it (to quote Ms. Putri): Some people turn to scientific efforts to explain why and how the universe is the way it is. Others prefer transcendental beings, gods, or rituals. Aside from being spiritual, the cultures that birthed these weird religious creation myths were also highly creative. Who would have thought butter could form the world? How did you link the origin of existence with extraterrestrial realms? How could creation stories link us to monsters, giants, even bugs?
These weird creation myths around the world, promoted by religions, may be easier to pass on and to learn than scientific theories, and only seem truly bizarre when held in relief against modern scientific knowledge. Basically, we think we know better now. But do we?
There are fourteen myths recounted in all, some ancient, some more modern, which can be seen here (I'm partial to number 3 myself). Which one is your favorite?
Another list but this one's a nice one — with even a couple of lady vampires! For "The Scariest Monsters and Demons from Celtic Mythology" by Jane Walsh, courtesy of Scott M. Goriscak on THE HORROR SOCIETY, please to peruse IRISHCENTRAL.COM here.
Then a bit of business to round out the day, yesterday brought a proof copy of 2016's RHYSLING ANTHOLOGY, the collection of finalists for this year's Science Fiction Poetry Association long and short poetry competition. My entry here is about a different monster, King Kong, and why his tragic romance with Fay Wray was doomed to failure, originally published in August in GRIEVOUS ANGEL (cf. February 7 2016, September 5 2015, et al.). Happily I have just reported back that I found no errors.
Another short Sunday note with a huge thank you goes to writer and artist William Cook whose very favorable review of THE TEARS OF ISIS is now up on Goodreads. I highly recommend it (ahem!), but here's a link to have a look and decide for yourself.

Have you cleaned up your diet and started exercising, only to find it impossible to lose weight? Are you plagued by cellulite no matter how much you exercise? Maybe you have gotten your weight under control but still have stubborn fat around your midsection and under your arms. You want results you are not yet seeing.
These problems lead many people to be unhappy with their shape, blaming themselves for not having enough willpower or exercising enough.In reality, however, there are some things beyond your control that can make it next to impossible to shed tummy weight and tone up.
So what's really to blame? There are a number of factors that can contribute to cellulite, stubborn stomach, and arm flab. Hormonal imbalances are frequently a factor, especially if the extra weight is around the hips and stomach. This problem happens more as we age and affects both women and men. When declining hormone levels are combined with a slower metabolism due to age, you may be fighting a battle that can't be won.
Sometimes other health issues make it difficult to exercise or limit your options to activities that aren't as effective for weight loss. For instance, people with neck, back, and joint issues often have to restrict exercise due to pain or limited range of motion. Previous injuries can also make it difficult to exercise as vigorously as you might need to see results.
You don't have to give up hope, however, because there are ways you can get rid of fat and flab in the areas you want. Body sculpting is an effective tool which can reduce fat cells in specific areas. And although some procedures can be painful and have unpleasant side effects, there are safe and comfortable options available.
At Belle Vie International we are proud to offer safe, effective, and pain-free way to get rid of fat in targeted areas such as the arms, stomach, waist, thighs, and even the chin. Using FDA-approved technology, we can help you effortlessly tone up and slim down in exactly the right areas. There's no guessing involved, and there are no drugs needed. For those fighting a losing battle against the bulge, this is an amazing new option to explore to get the results you want.

Heads of agreements are similar to MOUs. Australian courts do not typically distinguish between them. The main difference is in the wording and that two parties typically sign a heads of agreement when they intend to form a legal agreement (a contract) at a later date. The heads of agreement lays out the bones of the contract, summarising the provisions that will be in the contract. The heads of agreement generally includes a date that the contract will be formed.
As stated above, in general neither heads of agreement nor MOUs are legally binding. However, and this is where things get a bit tricky, just because a document is called an MOU or a heads of agreement does not mean that it actually is.
What does that mean? Well, what the document actually says is much more important than what it is called. If a document puts obligations on the parties that both parties have signed, and there has been an exchange of consideration (for example, money), it might be a contract rather than an MOU or a heads of agreement. This would mean that a binding contract has arisen and if one party does not do what they have agreed to do under the MOU or heads of agreement then they can be sued by the other party.
It is important that heads of agreement and MOUs do not have obligatory statements such as "x agrees to do y" or "x shall do y". Use a statement like "x may do y" instead. The heads of agreement or memoranda of understanding should also have a disclaimer statement such as "the parties do not intend for this [heads of agreement or MOU] to be legally binding". But even this statement does not guarantee that that the memorandum of understanding or heads of agreement won't be legally binding. You can see how tricky these things can get (and why we have a job!).
Heads of agreement and MOUs are useful when two parties:
- Are negotiating and want to keep a record of what they have agreed to so far
- Want to create a road-map for how negotiations will proceed
- Want to make it clear that what has been negotiated is not yet legally binding
- Want to deal with pre-contractual issues such as confidentiality, exclusivity and intellectual property
- Want to secure third party finance and need to demonstrate that a contract negotiation is underway
You need to consider what is right for you and your business and whether it is useful to put in place a Heads of Agreement or MOU. In our experience because an MOU or heads of agreement is not legally binding (generally speaking), in some situations it is better to just proceed straight to the contract.
Preliminary, non-binding agreements can be an unnecessary extra expense. For example, if you wanted to record how the parties anticipate a future transaction taking place and you are concerned about confidentiality, you might be better off putting in place a confidentiality agreement that has information about the future transaction in it as well. This way there is no doubt that the confidential information must be kept confidential and the future transaction also gets recorded.
As we like to say "Do it once and do it right!"

After a series of false dawns and some truly dour displays from Man United, should LVG now do the honourable thing and just resign?
Harry Rednapp claimed last week in the Manchester Evening News that "Jose Mourinho to Manchester United is a done deal" and another humiliating defeat away to struggling Sunderland in the league, closely followed by defeat to Midtjylland (ironically formed in 1999 when United were Kings of Europe), surely he has had his 6th and last chance to save United's season and his job.
For a club of United's heritage, a 0-3 win away in the FA Cup tonight to League 1 Shrewsbury Town will hardly register on the satisfaction scale for the dissatisfied United fans.
How long are the United board prepared to wait, until it is mathematically impossible to achieve a top 4 finish?
If Ed Woodward doesn't have the backbone to admit his own personal failure by appointing LVG, then maybe fan pressure might work to encourage the other board members to take action, what do you think?

With recurring drought and the promise of a wet winter, water officials have a new appreciation for storm runoff.
Instead of funneling the water into concrete-lined channels and whisking it to the ocean to prevent flooding, Inland suppliers are devising ways to capture the water and hold it for local use.
"We've been really efficient in getting rid of the water. It doesn't seem like a good idea now," said Dusty Williams, general manager and chief engineer for the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District.
With the state facing a fifth year of drought and imports from the State Water Project limited by environmental regulations, water agencies want to capture every drop, especially during strings of storms like those delivered by this year's El Niño weather pattern.
The State Water Resources Control Board also has begun pushing for rain water collection and will begin distributing $200 million for projects from the $7.5 billion water bond approved by voters in November 2014.
In Riverside County, pending projects from Corona to Beaumont would increase capture by 28,000 acre-feet, Williams said. Each acre-foot is enough to supply two families for a year.
The potential for such projects became clear during recent rains.
The Inland Empire Utilities Agency, a wholesaler serving Fontana, Rancho Cucamonga and other cities in western San Bernardino County, was able to bank 1,850 acre-feet of water – more than 602 million gallons, General Manager Joe Grindstaff said. That's enough to serve at least 3,700 families for a year.
"This is water we diverted that otherwise would have gone to Orange County and out to the ocean. In those two days we got 1 percent of our annual needs," he said.
The water is directed into recharge basins or percolation ponds, where sandy, gravely soil allows the water to sink down into underground basins. It can be pumped out later, treated, and sent to homes for washing dishes and watering lawns.
Grindstaff's agency, along with San Bernardino County Flood Control, Chino Basin Water Conservation District and the Chino Basin Watermaster, has 19 sites with multiple recharge basins. Water is directed into the ponds by five inflatable rubber dams installed across concrete channels that carry water from streets.
If this winter is a wet one, the utilities agency could capture an additional 20,000 acre-feet, he said. A dry year can still add 5,000 acre-feet.
Inland Empire Utilities Agencies has plans for another $60 million in percolation ponds.
"It's become much more popular in the last ten years. We realized how much of a difference that would make to our water supply in the long term," Grindstaff said.
Timing is important when it comes to catching runoff.
When the storms earlier this month dumped several inches of rain, water coursed off the driveways, parking lots and streets of Inland cities and into a network of gutters, where it drained, eventually, into the Santa Ana River.
Near the Riverside-Orange County border, the river ran through a marsh before stopping behind Prado Dam in Corona, where 12,100 acre-feet of it rose to within several feet of the legally allowed maximum height.
When the storms stopped, the water behind the dam was slowly released into recharge basins in Anaheim, where it is seeping into Orange County's aquifer.
If the entire pool behind Prado can be drained before the next storm, it's enough water for nearly 100,000 people for a year, according to the Orange County Water District.
That's what happens when one medium-size storm hits – local water managers can capture and save much of the water. But one storm isn't what worries flood control managers. It's El Niño's succession of storms, one after the other, that forces officials at Prado to let water gush through the dam and down the Santa Ana River to the ocean.
"Ideally, we'd love to drain it all the way, and then have it rain immediately and fill it up again," said Mike Markus, general manager at the Orange County Water District.
San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District, a wholesaler, is working with the valley's conservation district and Western Municipal Water District in Riverside to greatly expand holding potential below Seven Oaks Dam near Highland.
The agencies will make improvements and add recharge basins that will allow them to double the volume of water that can be diverted when water is released from the dam – to 500 cubic feet per second, said Doug Headrick, general manager at Valley.
"We want it released at a controlled rate so we can take it out of the stream and put it in the ponds," he said.
Rainwater runoff has increased over the years, along with building projects that cover the ground in pavement.
Water is left with nowhere to go but downhill, picking up animal waste, trash and other contaminants along the way and dumping the pollution into rivers and the ocean. The increased volume also contributes to flooding and erosion.
According to a 2014 report by the Pacific Institute, capturing that runoff – for groundwater recharge and in rain barrels and cisterns – could increase water supplies in Southern California and the San Francisco Bay Area by as much as 630,000 acre-feet per year, the amount used by Los Angeles in a year.
Much of the rain that falls in the San Bernardino Valley goes to the ocean because there's nothing to slow it down. Luckily, it only represents 10 to 15 percent of all water recharged in the basin, Headrick said.
The rest comes from precipitation in the mountains, from 15 watersheds that drain into the Santa Ana River, Mill Creek, Lytle Creak and a dozen smaller streams.
"It's the snow falling in the mountains that gives us our reliability," he said.

Do you suffer from chronic runny nose? Chronic rhinitis is inflammation of the nasal mucosa causing excessive mucus production, possibly triggered by allergies or another form of irritant. Nerves in the posterior (or back) nasal area regulate the production of mucus. If these nerves are overstimulated or irritated then nasal secretions, or mucus, is made. Symptoms of chronic rhinitis include:
- Post nasal drip
- Nasal congestion
- Nasal itching
- Frequent sneezing
In our effort to provide exceptional care for our patients, we are now offering a procedure called ClariFix® to help reduce excess production of mucus. This is a safe, effective in-office sinus procedure that requires minimal time away from home or office.
What is ClariFix®?
ROVA ENT is pleased to offer ClariFix®, a minimally invasive, innovative procedure that can be performed in the office to help reduce the production of mucus. The ClariFix® procedure utilizes cryotherapy treatment to ablate the posterior nasal nerves. The treatment is designed to disrupt the errant nerve signals that cause rhinitis. ClariFix® is an FDA approved, safe procedure with minimal discomfort and offers patients significant improvement in symptoms, including congestion and chronic runny nose.
What to Expect During Treatment
After Dr. Lenkowski determines that you are a candidate for the ClariFix® procedure, you will receive local anesthetic in the back of the nose near the posterior nasal nerves. When you are fully numbed, an endoscope and the small ClariFix instrument will be placed very close to the posterior nasal nerves. Through the endoscope Dr. Lenkowski will be able to visualize the areas of inflammation caused by the overstimulated nerves in the nasal passages. Using the cryotherapy instrument, he delivers the freezing cryotherapy treatment to that area to ablate the nerves causing the chronic rhinitis. The procedure takes only a few minutes on each side.

Archive for the 'Karl Denninger' tag
Where is our outrage against this persistent corruption in America?
Karl Denninger is really on to something. He is really tapping into the anger and frustration that we as a people seem to have a lack of in this great country. I know we are all busy with our day to day lives but now is the time to start taking action or this great bastion of freedom, liberty and opportunity is going to slip away and one day we will all wake up servants to the same apparatus that this country was founded in opposition too.
This is not a Democrat or Republican issue or a left or right agenda. Both parties are equally guilty in not holding up justice or fairness on almost every issue if not every single one across the board. This has happened through the special interest that has guided the legislative process into areas that really do not help all the people. Laws need to be fair to all not just a select few. Have we all lost our stomach for outrage and holding people accountable? Do we not want to look to investigate crimes that have taken place because "we don't want to look to the past"? Well "I" for one say "No". We need to investigate, prosecute where crimes have taken place and set the precedent that sets a legal standard that is right and justly.
Karl has the courage to not sit back and just take but to speak out and confront the issues we face. I hope you take the video to heart and it gets you motivate to take action and ask your representatives why we are not doing more even if it is not the politically safe option.

Top Global Risk- Any Guesses?
Did you guess that its terrorism, human trafficking or the nuclear war? Wrong!
World Economic Forum (WEF) 2015 ranked water crisis as the top global risk this week. Having observed the profound impact that quantity and quality of water can have over communities, it comes as no surprise to someone like me.
I also believe that we have to consider a few points while accessing water as top global risk:
- Agriculture water productivity: The competition for limited resource and growing demand with increasing world population. There is also the issue of the quality of water used for irrigation, and the crops produced.
- Water and energy nexus: We need water to irrigate the crops and electricity for water supply and withdrawing the ever depleting groundwater.
- Blue green cities: With the unprecedented rate of urbanization, water bodies and green spaces are a challenge to maintain and develop, as the land availability in the cities is a scarce commodity.
- Geopolitical sensitivities: India and China come to mind at once. Both are struggling with limited water resources and grappling the shared waters resources (primarily from rivers) as much as possible. The potential for shared management of water as a means to achieve regional cooperation and conflict prevention is vital. India, as both an upper and lower riparian nation, finds itself at the centre of water disputes with its eastern and western downstream neighbors — Bangladesh and Pakistan, who accuse New Delhi of monopolizing water flows.
- Water quality, availability, and business impact: Dialogue surrounding the global water challenge tends to focus on supply, but we hear much less about the quality of our water. Water availability and quality not only has an impact on the businesses but also on the communities in their vicinity.
- Economics of traditional water management systems: Operation and maintenance of the water supply systems is antiquated and labor intensive, in most developing countries. It takes a lot of money, resources and will to ensure that these systems are up and running.
- Last but not the least climate change: India also has challenges, as the neighboring Bangladesh, because of the rising sea levels. Bangladesh is one of the most threatened countries, when it comes to sea level rise issue because of climate change.
Identifying water as top global risk is work half done. It will take a multi-stakeholder and multi-pronged approach to understand what this risk means for the world.

Introducing Crystal & Kenneth
This engagement session with Crystal & Kenneth was like no other that I have photographed. Kenneth is a chef and he loves to cook for Crystal. They have a special ritual where they come together on Monday nights and break bread together, share their lives and catch-up because they are so busy. You see Crystal is a news producer and has crazy hours, just like Kenneth does being a chef. Their crazy hours don't match, so when they get time off together, it's special.
When it came time to plan the engagement session there was a strong consensus: a home cooked meal by Kenneth. A meal that is special, where Crystal would contribute and romantic pictures would be captured. It was perfect.
The Engagement Session
Kenneth planned this delicious dinner. He likes to think of the food he prepares as creating an endgame with flavor notes for the person eating it. When Crystal sent over the menu, as a foodie, I about fell out of my desk chair! And possibly excitedly wrote to another foodie friend about how delicious this engagement session was going to be.
Since this wasn't your average engagement session, everything was done in stages. From making the homemade pasta, to finishing the last course. The best thing about this session though? These two are obvious best friends, partners for life. They exude happiness and a deep love for each other. It was truly a blessing to be invited into their home to witness their special Monday night ritual.
The Formals
The Food
Also, the food? Yeah I am going to have to invest in Kenneth's restaurant whenever he decides to chase that dream. He paired ingredients together I never would have thought to do, and it was so delicious, the meals I made for the rest of the week paled in comparison. He's gifted.
Ladies and gentlemen, the lobster "lasagna" with seared foie gras.
I can confirm that this tasted better than it looked! Kenneth's endgame for this dish paired perfectly with the wine Crystal picked out. It was a delight to the senses!
Pasta Carbonara–in which Kenneth put an egg into the center and mixed it around to make the dish creamy and rich. Again, I cannot put into words how amazing this tasted.
The meal ended with an orange-scented pound cake with house-made Ricotta, local honey and caramelized peaches.
Love my work? Want me to capture you and yours? Let's talk!! It's easy, my email address is firstname.lastname@example.com. Let's have a heart-to-heart, get excited about the possibilities of your wedding or session and come up with a plan that is uniquely you! I want to hear from you!

Excavation for new-build
Excavation is in excellent hands with Marel Loonwerk. We are your partner for all excavation in new-build projects, e.g. for laying cables and pipes. In this work, we make use of laser technology, which means that precision is guaranteed. You can also rely on Marel Loonwerk for careful installation of soil-warming systems or drainage systems.
Excavation for cables and pipes
In new-build projects you need all kinds of excavation for rainwater drainage, substrate pipes, soil and CO2 pipes and electricity cables. We use our excavators fitted with laser equipment to dig the various trenches. For CO2 pipes and electricity cables we can use our chain excavator, which has many advantages compared with ordinary excavators: for instance, it is faster and also the trenches are less likely to sag, because the excavated ground is finer. This machine can dig trenches to a maximum of 130 centimetres deep and 60 centimetres wide.
Revetments and sheet piling
If you have a ditch side that's giving way, it's time to fit a revetment. All it takes is one phone call to Marel Loonwerk. The height is determined by the height of the ditch side. Your revetment will be delivered ready-made, so there's nothing else you need to do.
Installation of soil-warming systems
For some crops, a soil-warming system is still the best way to get the cold out of the soil. Marel Loonwerk is the specialist that has the know-how and the machines to install your soil-warming system. There are good reasons why many heating contractors work in close collaboration with us. We install soil-warming systems for use with soil-based crops (such as flowers), but also for use with culture floors and ebb-and-flood floors in pot plant growing. We install the hoses with absolute attention to detail, and also take care of all the excavation work involved.
Construction of drainage systems
Marel Loonwerk has extensive experience in the construction of drainage systems. We provide all aspects of constructing the system that's best for your situation. With natural run-off or pumping to a lower level. We make use of an ultra-modern, laser-equipped chain excavator, which does the work not only efficiently but also with maximum precision.
Drain jetting
Some soil structures may be more likely to cause deposits in a drainage system, which can result in blockages. Do you have problems with one or more pipes with insufficient flow? Then mechanised or manual jetting is a solution that removes the blockage. Marel Loonwerk uses the right pressure to jet your drainage system. Dirt particles in the pipes are resolutely eliminated, and the undisrupted operation of your drainage system is ensured.

Organic search is one amongst the most necessary customer acquisition channels. Search Engine Optimization or SEO can bring in anywhere from ten to sixty percent of
your overall web site traffic.
Therefore, it's dominant that you just avoid any potential e-commerce SEO pitfalls.
E-commerce sites that lose search rankings risk going out of business.
Don't let this happen to you.
Here are 6 common ways in which e-commerce sites will – and have – accidentally hurt or lost their search rankings.
1. Choosing wrong platform not compatible with SEO
Often we see people who often tend to use any available option or platform for selling their stuff, generally, wordpress which is in fact made for blogging or use any platform for selling online without taking account of SEO benefits which will definitely result in profitable option if chosen otherwise. One such option is Magento, which is used more than 25% of the total online selling sites of the world. Magento has very good SEO features and made to progress and exploit the SEO benefits.
Magento can be also modified for making custom SEO changes. We have seen many of our clients shifted to Magento because their local developer doesn't have knowledge of the most powerful selling platform. To summarize this we recommend Magento as a selling platform, not because of its pretty enough in selling online but also have the basic needs of online selling platform such as product management, catalog management, promotion management, SEO management etc.
2. Moving Platforms while not SEO in Mind
Launching a brand new e-commerce web site or switch to a brand new platform are the most common reasons why rankings and sales go down.
Perhaps the new website isn't as SEO friendly as your previous version. Or, once you switched platforms, maybe you deleted pages and altered URLs while not doing
As a result, Google can't realize your new content and pages that it had antecedently indexed and cached.
Make sure you don't suffer from a decrease in rankings. Here are some common things you want to look for when changing platforms:
A correct 301 redirect map implemented that includes all of the pages which have backlinks pointing to them.
A crawl of the site using SEO software to make sure all of the pages are indexed correctly.
An audit of all meta titles, descriptions, H1 tags, and body content to ensure that all are successfully moved from each web page to their new page and URL
Try to keep all categorization changes and restructures to a minimum during a migration. Basically, don't delete categories and take them off your navigational bar.
Make sure you do not have the "noindex" or "nofollow" tag on your web pages.
A large drop in site speed from one website to the next.
You can also export all of the URLs that receive the vast majority of your clicks using the Google Search Console. Just go to your default view, click "pages", and
make the dates for 90 days back to get as much data as you can.
From there, you can audit those individual pages and make sure Google doesn't drop them for the keyword phrases that they currently rank for when you switch to the new platform
3. Restructuring Categories
Many merchants continuously optimize their navigational bar for customers — removing categories, re-categorizing them, and merging categories. This is an issue with
SEO as the links on your navigational bar share in your link authority of links pointing to your homepage.
Your homepage generally has the vast majority of links. So when you remove categories from your navigation bar, you could subsequently hurt your organic rankings.
If you delete a category altogether, or merge it with another category, that category can be removed from Google's index, therefore dropping the rankings for which
that particular page ranks.
Before you start deleting categories or pages, make sure you check Google Analytics for the page and identify how much traffic it receives from organic search engines.
To do this, go to Behavior – Landing Pages and change your view from "All Users" to "Organic Traffic." Then you can search for that page and see how much traffic it
If it does receive a fair amount of traffic, then you have a dilemma on your hands. I would recommend using the Google Search Console to identify what it ranks for in
Google, and then make sure you have content which can rank for those phrases.
You can then 301 redirect those pages to the new destination. As long as it is good enough for users, then you can hope that Google will agree and rank that page,
instead of the one you are deleting or merging.
4. Removing Pages and URLs
As mentioned above, if you just start deleting content such as products, blogs, or body content, you leave yourself open to the risk that Google will deindex those
If you delete content, make sure you 301 redirect those URLs to the most relevant page so it can take the rank for those keyword phrases.
If you fail to 301 redirect the URL, then any backlinks pointing to that page will break and link to a dreaded 404 page. No one is trying to rank their 404 page in
Google, so it wastes a lot of links and hurts your backlink profile.
If you 301 redirect the old URL to the new URL, then that page will get the link authority and it will have a much better chance to rank in Google for those phrases.
If you're going to delete overall pages, such as categories or CMS pages, then reference the above section on categorization. Make sure it doesn't rank for many
phrases in Google and doesn't get much search traffic. If it does, 301 redirect it to a relevant page or do not delete it at all.
Deleting pages doesn't have to be the only option.
E-commerce businesses are constantly changing inventory, which creates many opportunities for broken backlinks. Using a tool like Ahrefs, you can go through and 301
redirect any broken backlinks to their new destinations. If you do not have a similar product for which to 301 redirect, then I recommend redirecting it back to the category with which it is associated.
If you delete the content on your category pages or product pages, you can be at risk for losing search engine rankings as well.
One account that I worked on back in 2015 suddenly dropped in keyword rankings after a new website design. The reason they saw such a dramatic drop was that they
deleted the 150-word blurbs and H1 tag on their category pages.
Once we put all of the content back, their organic rankings increased.
If you're going to do things like delete content or tags, test it with a few pages first. Don't just roll out such changes to every page on the entire website. Always be cautious in doing such activities.
5. Not Keeping Up With SEO
A good way to lose your organic search engine rankings is to forget about SEO and, more importantly, link building. Links are the second most important ranking factor,
so if you aren't optimizing for them, you will most likely decrease in the rankings.
E-commerce websites are also in this perpetual rat race of getting more links than they lose. It can be difficult for an e-commerce site to gain valuable links because
they sell products, and products generally receive a much lower number of links than content.
You want to make sure that you are keeping up with your SEO competitors – from broken backlinks to link building tactics and more. Letting things get stale is extremely
risky. The competition may eventually overtake you.
6. Hurting the User Experience
A good user experience correlates with better rankings. You need to make sure you're optimizing for user experience.
Whenever you do a new website design (or if you haven't done one in a while), it is good to do a user experience audit to evaluate how you're doing and see where you
can improve.
In Google Analytics, you can see your bounce rate, time on page, pages per session, and more when you segment organic traffic in your "Landing Pages" tab underneath
"Behavior." You can also segment the view for a month over month or year over year.
The goal here is to check however you are doing throughout completely different time periods. If you ceaselessly see the metrics moving into AN unfavorable direction,
then i might advise operating along with your better half team, your web site design/development partners, and alternative specialists to urge the metrics moving into
the correct direction.
If you with success improve your user experience, users can have interaction additional along with your web site. You'll presumably increase your sales and decrease
bounce rate, and have a more robust probability to be connected to.
All of the hassle you place into optimizing for user expertise ought to assist you to earn higher positions on Google.
Unfortunately, there is plenty of the way you'll accidentally hurt your search rankings. However, if you'll avoid this 6 mistakes that are very common in businesses you might see more conversion in the website and for sure shot success in your business contact us today and let us help you and guide you with all sort of things

HUBER HEIGHTS — The Wayne football team opens week one at home against Canadian Prep Academy with the Back Yard Bash, hosted by the Sports Image Group that puts on the Flyin' To The Hoop basketball tournament, headed up by Eric Horstman. Last year the event was held at Centerville. Minton said that in the future, this could be a double or triple-header on Saturday with spectators being cleared out of the stands between games and possibly one game played on Friday.
"I think it will be great…," said Minton. "Hopefully, it works out and will continue for several years and we'll be able to bring a lot into our community."
Canadian Prep Academy played St. Edward, St. Ignatius and Steubenville last season. They lost all three contests, by fell to Steubenville by two points. Minton said it is his understanding that Canadian Prep has four players who will be
playing at the Division I college level. He said he expects this to be a "lot better game" than the two previous Canadian opponents Wayne has hosted.
"Our guys have to be ready," said Minton.
Minton said that Wayne reserve ticket holders will get their seats for this game. The Wayne game was originally to be played at 8:30 p.m., but has been moved up to 6 p.m. in order to guarantee these seats. Wayne fans will also have closer parking than they might if the game was the second contest of the evening. They will also be able to stay for the second game if they wish which pits Trotwood against Pickerington Central.
Ticket prices at the gate will be $10. Minton said that 6500 tickets have been printed for this event.
In week two, Wayne will travel to Archbishop Moeller High School to play in a nationally televised game as part of the GEICO and ESPN High School Showcase which will be broadcasted on ESPNU at 4 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 6 at Moeller's home field in Lockland. This game will be a rematch of the Division I state semifinal game in which the Warriors defeated Moeller 29-22 at Masson Dwire Field at Atrium Stadium. This year, Wayne was ranked second in the state Division I pre-season poll behind top ranked Moeller.
Minton said the USPNU coverage provides great exposure for the student athletes and for the community.
"It's going to be tough, Moeller's really good this year. They've got a lot returning."
Moeller players to watch include tight end Jake Hausmann, who has committed to The Ohio State University and quarterback Thomas MacVittie, who has made a verbal commitment with Pittsburgh. Senior lineman Ryan Smith has committed to Indiana.
"They've got some big time guys as Moeller usually does," said Minton.
At the state semi-final game last year, then junior kicker Matt Coghlin, who has committed to Michigan State, recorded Moeller's first five scores against Wayne on field goals of 45, 54, 25, 29 and 34-yards.
Fans at Wayne home games will see a new scoreboard this year.
Season tickets for the season can be purchased at the main office at Wayne between 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. through Friday.

When is address proof mandatory
From our experience, it is almost always compulsory to submit a valid proof of address to go through a verification process as stated in most of the jurisdictional laws. At the same time, such requirements are largely outdated as the documents can be easily faked and people are changing their places of residency more and more frequently. For these reasons, some countries like Hong Kong don't have proof of address in their requirements. We believe that all regulations will eventually adopt this practice, although it will take some time.
Quality check of residential address document
First of all, every company that conducts proof of address check has to have a comprehensive guide that describes the process and requirements for the user.
If there is no possibility to conduct an automated check, there are a few necessary steps to properly verify documents manually:
- To accurately inspect the document for watermarks, security features, common patterns of graphics editing;
- Check if the document is of valid issue date (no older than 3 months for bank statements/utility bill and not older than 3 months for government-issued correspondence);
- Make sure that the document has the account holder's name;
- Check if the document has the address (the more specific the better) and confirm it's existence through a search engine such as Google or Naver. If the applicant submits the address without the apartment number while living in a block of flats, the compliance officer must request them to specify the flat as well.

Specialised Dermal Filler Practitioner in Central London
Whether you are looking to redefine the border of the lips, smooth away any fine lines, correct asymmetries or simply add youthful volume to thinning lips, we will customise the treatment to ensure the most perfect pout.
As we age, we often lose volume in our cheeks and across the cheekbones which pulls the face downwards making us look older. By expertly applying dermal filler, we can 'lift' this area, creating volume without looking false or unflattering.
The lines that run from our nose to our mouth become more defined as we age, gravity will pull the skin downwards creating a distinct fold that can be very ageing. Adding volume to this area immediately lifts the face with beautifully natural results.
These vertical lines running from our lips to our nose can appear as early as our 30's, making the lip area look less attractive and cause additional problems of lipstick 'bleeding' into the area. They are very easy to treat and you will see an immediate result in the texture of the skin.

Another important characteristic of a blogger is credibility. Many readers go back and follow a certain blog because of the blogger's credibility.

This also includes when you purchase blogs to be entered into your own website, as a means of boosting sales or the traffic to your website.

There should never be a question of should you blog or not. The answer will always be the same, if you have the time, and the creativity, you should be blogging right now!
However, if you want to enjoy the fun of blog writing, you will want to have your own little creative space. Whether you are writing for other people or for yourself, your writing will need to be housed on a website somewhere on the Internet. Generally speaking, it is easily attainable and can be purchased at a nominal price. With a topic in mind you can start pouring yourself into your writing, keeping your readers entertained from the first to very last word that you have written. But, lets not get ahead of ourselves with how you can tap into the fun of blog writing, you will want to create your blog first and bring in some traffic. Whether you want to create the content yourself or hire someone to write it for you, traffic is one of the most important pieces of this puzzle.
Whether you word to mouth or search engines to bring in your traffic, you will want to direct readers to this entertaining read. With that said, blogging has many different benefits to individuals and businesses alike. It will help to direct readers and possible consumers to your website. Regardless of the reason for your website, informative or retail based, there is little reason for you to not take advantage of this new wave of consumerism. If you are stuck in a rut with writing your own, it is possible for you to hire a company like Niche Writers, who are experts in their field in writing content and blogs for their customers.

Court Case re Estate Agents duty of caregreenspun.com : LUSENET : Repossession : One Thread
This link may not work after a day or two, but it it is in the Times Online Dec 17th 2002 in an article called "Estate agent pays the price" By Steve Bird and Claire McDonald
The estate agents sold a house (megabucks one) for substantially less than a comparable property in the same area. The vendor who lost out sued - and won! Sounds similar to repossession sales to me and I wonder if the judgement can be applied in reverse?. Judge Peter Heppel QC ruled against the Estate Agents.Mr Knatchbull is the property vendor.
Thoughts anyone?
-- Too scared to say (firstname.lastname@example.com), December 18, 2002
I was not so lucky. A differnet type of case regarding an estate agent. I disputed an estate agent's charges (Ł1200) when they sent me their invoice after I had taken my house off the market. The people who were going to purchase my house had withdrawn their offer, so I later took my house off the market. The estate agent in question took me to the small claims court and were awarded the full amount even though no contracts had been exchanged. They also got away with charging extra VAT despite letters confirming this from Trading Standards. I have become very disillusioned about the so called legal system since.

Positive news from overseas Greece-d Wall Street's wheels on Friday, as traders cheered a possible resolution for the Greek economic crisis and a rebound in Chinese stocks.
The Dow climbed 212 points, or 1.2% to close at 17, 760. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq also rose more than 1%.
"You had positive news flow, whether it was China or Greece," Todd Salamone, senior vice president of research at Schaeffer's Investment Research, told the Daily News.
The market reacted favorably to a proposal submitted by Greece on Thursday that makes substantial concessions to the country's lenders.
The proposal includes raising taxes and eliminating some tax breaks. In exchange, Greece is looking to get $59 billion to cover its debts. On Friday, Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras appealed to his party to back his reform package to save Greece from a financial meltdown.
Euro zone finance ministers are set to meet on Saturday to consider the plan and determine whether Athens will get a bailout.
Wall Street also got a lift from China, where stocks rallied strongly for the second day in a row thanks to government support measures. As of mid-week, panic selling in China had slashed one-third of the market's value since its peak in June.
"There is optimism that Greece is opening up to accepting a deal which would let it stay in the EU. But to me, the fact that China staged a late week bounce is more meaningful," Ryan Detrick, strategist at See It Market, told the News. "With both of these worries calming, it allowed the bulls to take charge."
But investors could be in for a bumpy ride as the U.S. stock market is expected to continue to respond to headlines from overseas, Salamone said.
"Unfortunately, we don't know what that news will be," he said.
On the domestic front, Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen said on Friday that she expects the Fed to raise rates this year. But she also noted that the U.S. labor markets remain weak and that more workers could be brought back into the workforce with stronger economic growth.
