Social media platforms today have given people a place to express themselves. Yes, there is the freedom of expression and so on and so forth and people are more now than ever saying what they think to the world with every opportunity that they get. There is however one thing that we tend to forget and that is the fact that freedom comes with responsibilities. That then means that ion as much as we do have the freedom of expression we also have to watch we are saying or rather posting on these social media platforms. There are people who have lost jobs due to things that they posted onsocial media, there are people who have lost relationshipand basically people that have lost many more opportunities. It is a fact that the internet never forgets. It is important to be very careful about the content that we are posting and the message that it is sending out to the world. There are people who defend themselves by saying that they were not serious about what they posted and they were basically just joking. Well, it is important to take these things very seriously. Take twitter for example;you might tweet something absurd taking it as a joke. One of your followers might see it and choose to retweet it. A twitter retweet is an awesome feature with very many benefits abut it can also do you a whole lot of harm. Once one person retweets it you can be sure that the tweet is well on its way to getting seen by more and more people. A simple twitter retweet getscontent that you have tweeted tobe seen by people who are not even following you. As the twitter retweet cycle continues you can never really be sure how far it will go. You cannot know who will end up seeing the tweet. You might have sent out a tweet talking crazy about your boss and through the long cycle of retweets, the boss ends up seeing it. What will happen to you then? You will definitely lose your job. You will have lost your source of income from something that you were ‘tweeting as a joke’. It is very true that we do have the freedom ofexpressionand everyone is entitled to their own opi9nion. It is however still very important that we look at the weight that our words carry. You might undermine the twitter retweet and look at it as basically a great feature that helps you get visibility; which it definitely is but it can also end up messing you up. It is however important that we state the facts here and come to the acceptance that it will not really be the twitter retweet messing you up but you will simply be messing yourself. Simply because we have been provided with these platforms where we literally get to say what and how we feel to the entire world, it does not mean that we have to be vile and disrespectful. It is important to check what we are posting on these platforms. Connecting Twitter Retweets and Free Followers How do I get more twitter retweets? This is a question that goes through many people’s minds as they start twitter. You wonder why other people have a lot of retweets on tweets that are not really as well formed or as a good as yours. The trick could be very simple. Get more followers and you will get more retweets. The equation is as simple as having more followers means more exposure and thus more people will be prompted to retweet what you tweet. Truth be told,when it comes to getting followers on social media,there are a large number of lies that have been propagated. It is important to understand that followers and likes on social media do not come automatically. You have to put in the effort and time that is required to attract the attention of the audience that you are targeting. At the end of the day, it is imperative that it be clear in your head the reasons as to why people use social media. Once these facts are clear in your head, you will be babe to know exactly what to do on social media to get the attention of people and get the followers that you need. Itis not possible for one to get a following on social media unless you capture the attention of the mass audience. There are many reasons as to why people use social media. Some go to social media for entertainment purposes, business purposes, informational purposes, to pass time and so on and so forth. Before you start using social media, you need to know the kind of audience that you are looking to attract and the reason as to why this audience turns to social media. Once you have found out the reason that is taking them to social media, ensure that you do your best to not only meet but also satisfy their needs. Once you tweet something that your audience identifies with or finds interesting you are bound to increase your twitter retweets. If you are targeting people that turn to social media for informational purposes, you need to ensure that you are always up to date on the topics that these people are interested in. Make sure that you have accurate and factual information. Periodically post this information on your social media pages and you will notice that your following will grow. If you are targeting people that mostly turn to social media for entertainment purposes, you need to turn into an entertainer. Posting jokes and funny memes is always a sure an easy way to attract more followers. You can also go a step further and provide information on the lasts songs, the latest movies, and latest events happening and where they will be taking place and so on and so forth. These options will not only get you more twitter retweets but also more replies as people voice their opinions to your tweet.

Finding Home In Madonna Inn by Priyanka Sacheti It happens sometimes: I enter a space and find myself instantaneously transported to past selves and worlds. It had been an idyllic January day; my husband and I had spent the entire morning and afternoon cruising down the Pacific Coastal Highway, which offered wholesome views wherever and whenever we looked. My camera slideshow revealed one postcard-perfect picture after another: foam-flecked jade seas; ancient, regal cypress trees; cerulean blue skies; and finally, an icy, fiery sunset at a beach where a family of elephant seals had congregated to celebrate the day’s conclusion. Newly married and having moved to the United States just a month ago, I was still dealing with the residue of cultural jetlag; this holiday was a perfect break. As we sped through the darkness en route to Santa Barbara, I marveled aloud at the visual treasures the day had offered us. In search of a caffeine and sugar fix, we stopped at Madonna Inn, having heard much about its quirky interiors and rooms. As we walked across the parking lot, I could still smell the sea in my hair and hear the wind swirling around me as if I was inside a conch shell. However, as soon as I stepped inside the hotel, the day’s postcards vanished from my mind. Surrounded by hot pink walls, ornate gold mirrors, massive chandeliers, and rainbow grapes, I found myself in a much-frequented haunt of my childhood: the interior of an eighties/nineties Hindi film. In an essay entitled “Home Stretch” in Elle magazine (June 2013), Courtney Hodell pertinently writes about the significance of a house/home in her life: “a house and its objects are a cup to contain our liquid, uncertain selves.” The objects that adorn our coffee tables and the art that hangs on our walls collectively contribute to transforming our spaces. They are unique to our personalities—spatial fingerprints. We perform many selves, donning different personalities for different people and occasions. The interiors of our homes are the theaters for these performances, and we rely on props in form of books, paintings, and knick-knacks to present this gamut of protean selves. One of the props that can contribute to the transformative power of our living spaces is the humble subwoofer. These audio devices not only enhance our listening experience but can also be a statement piece in our home decor. A sleek and modern subwoofer enclosure can complement a contemporary living room, while a vintage-inspired design can add character to a cozy den. Those interested in learning more about the design possibilities of subwoofer enclosures, can read post on subwoofer enclosure and explore the creative ways that these audio accessories can elevate the ambiance of our homes. My fascination with these performative spaces began during childhood, growing up in the Persian Gulf during the late eighties and early nineties. My family subscribed to a daily Dubai-based newspaper, Khaleej Times; it came a day late across the border, and my brother and I used to fight over who would read its children’s magazine, Young Times, first. They also published a weekend magazine, which came out on Fridays and was simply called Weekend, featuring a motley assortment of syndicated articles from British women’s magazines, columns chronicling the Dubai social scene, and ghost stories. I spent many hours poring over the sections on home interiors, for both their visual appeal and the stories of those who inhabited these spaces. These columns usually featured homes deemed outstanding in terms of layout, design, and decor/styling in United Arab Emirates, usually belonging to expatriate residents. I studied the photographs and read about how the owners assembled the variegated objects and paintings and furniture to create their homes, which often appeared to be portmanteau versions of those they had left behind. I wondered if our home would ever be featured in that column. Which stories would our rooms perform through their accessories—my mother’s Rajasthani miniature paintings, framed vintage family photographs, sculptures of Hindu deities, Czech crystal bon-bons? I closely inspected how people chose to dress up their homes. I created portraits of their lives from the contents of their rooms, inventorying all the journeys they took before coming and setting up their homes there. The houses I visited generally bore a trademark Persian Gulf look: brocade upholstered sofas, Arabian carpets, plenty of crystal and glass, gold accents. They tended toward excess and lavishness, the extent of which varied depending on personal tastes and inclinations. These homes were my address for familiarity, just as the homes depicted in the eighties/nineties Hindi films we watched were immediately familiar as well, despite my distance from India. The Hindi films claimed citizenship in the country of Kitsch: sprawling bungalows, mismatched furniture, carpets, wallpaper, paintings, and faux metal knick-knacks. The sets did not aspire to authentic representation; rather, the goal was to create a fantastical, escapist reality, far removed from the mundaneness of ordinary lives. The more I reflected upon it, was it not a similar case with the homes I encountered in the Middle East? The rooms emulated Bollywood as an ode to the homeland, while the décor, the ambience, and general visual appearance were carefully cultivated and curated to reflect an aspirational Middle Eastern lifestyle. These houses were ornate and grand, an interesting coexistence of nostalgic narratives of home and interpretations of the current life away from home. The constructed excess of both the homes in films and the ones in which we watched them contributed to and, indeed, constituted my understanding of interior design at that time. Hindi films from the nineties arguably did not distinguish themselves in most aspects of filmmaking, and aesthetics and design were certainly no exception. Anyone who has watched Bollywood film from that era can testify that detailed attention to art direction was a great rarity, barring a few exceptions, such as Yash Chopra’s Lamhe (1991). In that decade, set design was, more often than not, incidental to the narrative, a mere backdrop. It was not until Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (1995) and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) that Karan Johar, the auteur of aesthetics, fine-tuned art direction. His singular attention to visual elements in his filmmaking made design as much a matter of priority as the appearance of Kareena Kapoor or Kajol. Later films follow this trend: in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Devdas (2002), critics observe that the director consciously constructed operatic backdrops in consonance with the film’s high-octave notes. In an interview with leading Indian women’s magazine Femina (July 2002), the film’s costume designer Neeta Lulla revealed how she meticulously calibrated the color palette of Aishwarya Rai’s saris so that it would mesh with the film’s vividly colored sets. As Hindi films increasingly subscribe to the grammar of authenticity and/or conscious kitschiness in productions such as Dabangg (2010) or Himmatwala (2013), Hindi television programming seems to have assumed the baton of theatrics instead. In recent years, Hindi-language television producers have spent significant amounts of money on recreating rural Rajasthan, urban Gujarat, and miniature villages. Often, while watching shows such as Kasauti Zindagi Ki or Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, I wonder what it would be like to wander the sets of these shows. Each sought to recreate so accurate a cultural milieu that it was impossible to distinguish the ersatz from the authentic. Can watching these television shows and films assuage feelings of homesickness? Do new immigrants adorn their surroundings with as many reminders of home as possible, creating a shrine of nostalgia and yearning? When I first left home and moved to the United Kingdom for my undergraduate studies, one of the first things I did was drape a lime green and maroon embroidered Kashmiri shawl upon the chair of my bare, matchbox-sized room. The shawl had belonged to my mother when she traveled from India to Australia many years ago to pursue her graduate studies, and now it injected the room with color, my mother, and home. When I was growing up, I engaged with India through the sense of home created from Hindi films. Sitting in my living room in Oman, I conjured up notions of how my homeland and its people looked by peeking into the sets of their living rooms and bedrooms. Though I visited India annually, the first days back always seemed tinged with a cinematic unreality, as if I was no longer a spectator and had stepped inside a film. As my body adapted to the change in time zones, I felt my mind reconciling to the truth that we were in the depths of real India, not the manufactured one in the films I had been accessing all this time. The Internet revolution has brought us closer to one another than ever. The same nostalgia is perhaps no longer applicable since I can Skype with my loved ones every day. If I am homesick for the sights and sounds of my country, I experience it through audio-visual clips; if I am hungry for comfort food, the Indian grocery store is just around the corner. The homeland is no longer so remote. Perhaps only now can our homes be tabula rasas, liberated from becoming shrines to the past. As I walked around Madonna Inn, I intuitively viewed it through the prism of the familiar. It was maximalism, theatrics, and kitsch; it could easily have been a bungalow uprooted from a Hindi film or the Gulf and transplanted to California. I had not expected to return home in this hotel thousands of miles away. For that brief moment, I had fallen, Alice-like, through a black hole and tumbled into a fantastical, yet familiar, land.

Krabbe’s Leucodystrophy is a rare inherited disorder affecting mainly the ‘white matter’ of the brain, causing a progressive loss of physical and mental skills. What is the cause? Krabbe’s Disease is one of a group of Leucodystrophies caused by an abnormal build-up of substances, ( Cerebrosides) in the nerve cells, particularly in the white matter of the brain, which take the place of Myelin, the insulating material which is essential for normal transmission of messages between nerves. These substances are normally broken down and removed from the body by an enzyme ( Beta-galactocerebrosidase) but, in Krabbe’s Disease, the gene responsible for producing the enzyme is faulty so the normal process cannot occur. As the brain is the control centre of the whole body, blockages in the messages to other parts of the body will prevent those parts working efficiently, even though the parts themselves seem quite healthy. How is it diagnosed? The diagnosis is confirmed on a blood test which shows a low level of the enzyme (Galactocerebrosidase). Does it have an alternative name? Dr Krabbe ( a Danish Neurologist) first described the Infantile form of the condition ( affecting babies) in 1916; it is also known as Globoid Body / Globoid Cell Leucodystrophy, describing the appearances of the affected cells in the white matter of the brain. Is it inherited? Krabbe’s Disease is an autosomal recessive disorder; this means that both parents are carriers of the disease. Human beings have about 30-40,000 different genes, each of which has a function in making an individual person. The genes are arranged in pairs (1 of the pair from each parent) on 23 chromosomes. Inevitably, some of these genes are faulty; a normal gene can overcome a faulty one, but if both genes in the pair are faulty, the genetic instructions cannot work. Most people carry different faulty genes but in Krabbe’s Disease ( and other recessive conditions) parents, though healthy themselves, carry the same faulty genes, and risk passing them on to their children. Each pregnancy carries a 25% chance of the child being affected a 75% chance of the child NOT being affected. Is prenatal testing available? Prenatal testing is possible in some cases by chorionic villus sampling early in pregnancy following DNA testing of the parents and the affected sibling. How common is it? The incidence of the Infantile form of Krabbe’s Disease is estimated to be approximately 1: 100.000: the late onset form is considerably less common. How does the disease progress? The late onset form of Krabbe’s disease is very rare and can vary very considerably between different affected people, both in the way in which the symptoms appear and the rate at which the condition progresses. From early childhood the child will not achieve expected milestones of motor development; physical skills will be increasingly impaired and, probably after many years, memory will become poor and there will be a slow progressive loss of mental skills; the optic nerve in the brain will be affected so that vision will deteriorate and may be lost over time; in some cases there are long periods ( years) of relative stability but eventually from late childhood or early adulthood the disease will have caused both physical and mental deterioration which will cause the young person to be totally dependant; the child will notice the increasing physical difficulties but will probably be less aware of the intellectual deterioration, and the condition is not a painful one. The brain’s control of the muscles responsible for chewing, coughing and swallowing etc eventually becomes affected so that assistance with a feeding tube may be needed, and chestiness will develop and may lead to infections and increasing physical weakness. Eventually the combination of the diseased brain and physical weakness becomes too great to sustain life; death may occur in late childhood or later into adulthood, the time span varying greatly between affected people, but parents and carers will be aware of the increasing frailty, and death is usually relatively peaceful and expected when the time comes. Is there any treatment? Although there is no treatment yet available that can stop the disease, every effort is made to treat the symptoms as they occur. Thus drugs can be given to relieve muscle spasms and stiffness and feeding can be assisted. Parents will be advised on maintaining mobility as long as possible, and on seating and limb excercises to maintain comfort. Though not scientifically proven, many children gain some symptomatic relief from some of the complementary therapies such as cranial osteopathy and massage etc. In very mildly affected children bone-marrow transplant may be considered as an experimental treatment. Is any research being done? Research is progressing rapidly with increasing understanding of the genes and how they work; treatment is obviously the goal but sadly, as yet, research has not yet led to the ability to stop the effects of the disease. Your neurologist and information available from the support group can keep you informed of research progress. Is there a Support Group? The Research Trust for Metabolic Diseases in Children: CLIMB, which includes Krabbe’s Disease, can provide written information, telephone advice, support and contact (if wanted) with other families:-

Japanese has some sets of characters which look very similar or even identical. Obviously, context is usually more than enough to distinguish which character is intended, but I'm wondering if there are subtle differences which can be used to disambiguate. It's easy enough to compare characters in computer fonts, so my question is really more about handwriting. ー (katakana), 一 (kanji) and — (em dash) The first two can be distinguished from the last one in Minchō-type fonts, and usually it is possible to distinguish between all three. In vertical writing the katakana bō and the em dash are oriented vertically so is easily distinguished from the kanji ichi. What about in handwriting or Gothic-type fonts? I suspect they are indistinguishable then, but counterexamples are welcome. ロ (katakana) and 口 (kanji) In print, katakana ro is usually printed a little bit smaller than kanji kuchi. In some of the fonts I have the final stroke of katakana ro protrudes to the right, while the penultimate stroke of kanji kuchi protrudes downwards. カ (katakana) and 力 (kanji) Like the above, katakana ka is usually printed a little bit smaller than kanji chikara; but I've also noticed that the little hook is subtly different for katakana ka, and that in some fonts katakana ka has a bit of a rightward slant or curvature. ニ (katakana) and 二 (kanji) - エ (katakana) and 工 (kanji) - タ (katakana) and 夕 (kanji) ト (katakana) and 卜 (kanji) Other than size, it seems like the only way to distinguish these pairs in Minchō-type fonts is to rely on the tendency for katakana to have more brush-like strokes than the kanji. ハ (katakana) and 八 (kanji) These are usually easy to distinguish in print, even in brush-type fonts, since the last stroke of katakana ha is of a different type from the last stroke of kanji hachi. What about in handwriting? え (hiragana) and 之 (kanji) These are easily distinguished in print and good handwriting, but I have trouble making them distinct in my handwriting. へ (hiragana) and ヘ (katakana) Is there any difference between these two? They are identical in Hiragino Mincho, for instance...

Continuing with the three-parter on Leveraging the Power of an Ideal Client Avatar (your ICA), in the first episode I covered What is an ICA and Why You Need to Define Your Ideal Customer. Now part 2, I’m walking you through Creating Your Buyer Persona(with Exercise & Worksheet), let’s do this! Hello everyone, hope you’re doing well and things are moving and shaking in your business. If not, then going back to some basics can be really helpful. And in this series, we’re looking at the power of homing in on your specific target market and in particular your ideal client or customer avatar – or ICA – and in marketing and sales terms, today we’ll be focusing on creating your buyer persona. PREFER TO LISTEN? Quick recap first off on what we covered in part 1, we set out the principles of what a customer avatar is and why it’s important to the success of your business – and trust me that’s not a lofty statement for the sake of impact. If you haven’t listened to part 1 and really taken ICA work to heart as a key performance booster, then please do that. Otherwise, even if you do the exercise I’ll share with you today, your motivation to really do a thorough job won’t be as high as when you fully understand what’s at stake here. Now in part 2, I’ll be taking you through an exercise to formulate your ICA – step by step… which is a big challenge if you’re on the move whilst listening to this as a podcast, so you might want to read it as an article too, download and print out the exercise sheets to fill in once you’re back at base. Also, I don’t know where you’re at in your business building right now obviously – and I want to acknowledge that defining your avatar might be tough for some people, not least because it’s not something you crack in one go. We’ll at least make a start, but it’s really a progressive and iterative process. I don’t want to set myself or you all up to fail here, but I hope to get you a lot of clarity on why you should spend time on it, and a process you can take away and work on in your own time after today. In fact, even fleshing this out a little bit is going to give you a jumpstart on any lead magnets, content marketing, emails or other communication you’re doing with prospective customers. Before we start creating your ideal client avatar, let’s just recap from part 1 what this can achieve for your business. When your target audience is clear that you understand their needs, issues and situation, your messaging becomes more resonant. Your audience will understand why you are talking to them and what you want them to do. If your content resonates with them, they will be more trusting of you and your brand. With that trust, they will be more inclined to believe that your offer can help them with their pain points. By targeting a specific group of people with your marketing, you save money on advertising. You won’t have to waste time and money marketing to people who are not interested in what you have to offer. If you were selling boats, you wouldn’t try to sell to a family that lives in the desert. When you are writing your marketing material, you want your audience to feel like you are talking directly to them. If your marketing material is written to speak to everyone, no one will connect with your content. Close More Sales When you know who your target customer is, it becomes much easier to close sales. You can tailor your sales pitch to align with what they are looking for and make them an offer that makes their pain go away. Since your message has established trust with your target audience, they will be more likely to do business with you. Closing more sales is often a result of resonating strongly with your target audience rather than reaching more diverse groups of people. 6 Essential Qualities of Your Ideal Customers Right, so now we’ll cover off some of the foundations – the overarching ‘ideals’ you should be working towards. There are what I believe to be six essential qualities you will want ALL of your customers to share, which is fundamentally what makes them ideal for your business. At a high level, when you think about your ideal customer, here are the high level 6 essential qualities you should be looking for to ensure that you are targeting the right person for your business. Remember, you should be segmenting your customers not just to identify their value, but also to determine how you approach them. Your target person should be a raving fan – which means they believe in what you are doing and are willing to pay for the quality products you are creating. Is a raving fan – i.e. brand loyalty, sees & shares the benefits Is accessible – i.e. easy to find, reach out & talk to Is receptive to marketing – i.e. isn’t saturated in it Has good spend value – i.e. buys high-margin core products Has a relatively fast decision process – i.e. short sales cycle Has a high lifetime customer value – i.e. built-in repeat purchase. Let me take you through each one briefly… 1. A raving fan The person that you are targeting should be a loyal, raving fan. They should immediately recognise the benefit and relevance of whatever the problem is that you are solving. And because of how you talk about it, and solve it for this person, you should be the best solution that this person can think of. This is actually the most important thing. If your avatar loves you and what you do, then everything else becomes easier. They will convert more easily, they are more likely to come back again and again, and refer other people to you. Every step after this becomes relatively easy. So, focus on this one first. 2. Easy to reach & connect with Your avatar should be someone that you could easily get in touch with. For example, if you provide cleaning contract services you could choose a target person who is the head of operations in a good-sized corporate company, or you could choose the person in charge of operations at a school. Which one do you think is easier to reach out to? It would probably actually be much easier to contact someone in the corporation – they are in a position that is designed to be contactable. You have to carefully consider how difficult it is to actually get in touch with your potential avatar, and factor that into your decision on a marketing and sales process. 3. Receptive to Marketing Your target person should also be really open to looking for solutions in terms of engaging with the marketing you use. Going back to the cleaning contractor example, while it is easier to get in touch with someone at a corporation, they are less likely to be receptive to marketing. Corporate heads have marketing constantly thrown their way, while a school is less likely to get as much and will probably be more receptive. Sometimes, your avatar may not be that receptive to your marketing – that is ok. The point here is to compare between your different avatars and, ideally, choose one that is more receptive. 4. Relatively Short Sales Cycle This is another one that is more about comparison than absolute value. You want someone where the time to go from lead to purchase is minimised. You may ask, “How short is a short sales cycle?” and really, that depends on your business. What you need to focus on is choosing the target person among your choices that has the shortest sales cycles. 5. Good Spend Value & Margin Is your customer coming in and buying products or services from you that actually deliver value? Are they buying your products that actually have a high margin? Or are they only purchasing your peripheral products rather than your core ones? Do they only buy from you when you give them offers or put things on sale? 6. Built-In Repeatability You want your target person to be the kind that buys from you over and over again. This may not be the case for every business – some services are one-time only. However, with most businesses, it is a waste of your marketing spend if you are incurring all costs to get a lead and they are only buying from you once. Your marketing budget should be an investment, not a “spend” – and so when you make that investment, you want it to give you as much return as possible by increasing the number of transactions that a single converted lead makes. This increases the lifetime customer value or LCV, which if high can decrease your acquisition costs dramatically. Your Avatar is Already a Client! Often, as we run through the above 6 essentials for choosing a strong avatar my business consulting clients often say, “Ok, let me create my avatar.” But here’s the key lesson: You do NOT need to create your avatar from scratch. The strongest buyer personas are based on market research and insights you gather from your actual customer base. Go through your existing data methodically: - Research– First gather as much information as you can. Good places to start are your email lists, contact databases, lead capture pages and through interviews. Research online too, to understand where your customer is shopping in your industry. - Analyse– Next thoroughly analyse your research. Can you see any themes emerging? Any universal truths that jump out from your research? For example, job titles, location, age, gender… anything that allows you to segment your audience into clear groups. - Brainstorm– Now for the fun bit. Create rough audience groups, give them a name and start brainstorming any facts you can about them. Based on what you know, imagine who they are and what their life is like, and start to shape an idea of your ideal customer from each group. - Assess– Finally, look at your personas and see if they feel right. Do you have enough detailed information about them? Do they seem genuine? Do you believe them? Are they distinct groups? Do any cross over? A good number to end up with is between three and five different buyer personas. Part of the fast-track exercise we’re going to go through in a moment – is something I do with my clients – and that is to take the list of your customers and go through them one by one. Categorise them and assess them based on the 6 essential qualities I just shared. Make sure you choose not just the customers that paid the most but the ones you like! Would you want to have a coffee or a drink with them? Another way into this – to get a quick sense of your ideal customer avatar – is to pick a character from a movie or series you like. People align with TV or film characters because they’re RELATABLE. So pick one that truly resonates with what your avatar is all about, and who you’d want as a client, ideally. Danny Iny refers to this as the ‘Casting Method’. It’s pretty surface but can be a fun way into the character at the heart of your avatar. You should be fond of your avatar, and they should be – I will say it again – your raving fan. I can guarantee you, if you do not skip this step and tightly identify your target person, you will be amazed at how easy a lot of your marketing will become. It also helps you say no to clients, saying no to people who aren’t a fit for you or your business. Writing your content, defining your channels, figuring out the design of your website or marketing material – all these decisions will become so much easier once you know exactly who your avatar is. Your Avatar may not necessarily have blue skin and pointy ears, but as you define your marketing plan, you should be able to clearly visualise them and understand what would and would not work for your perfect person – or appropriate organisational contact if you’re B2B. You should be able to place yourself in their shoes – walk around a bit – and get a good sense of what would drive their decisions. 5 Steps to Defining Your AVATAR Before you can promote and sell anything effectively, you need to understand and align with: WHO your ideal customer is WHERE they’re hanging out online, and WHAT their challenges are But how do you actually do all that? Well, there are a few steps you need to take. And at first look, it will seem like a lot, but it’s iterative – we’ll just make a first start today. Once you get into it, it’s really quite good fun! The goal isn’t to know or conjure up every last detail about your one perfect person’s life – it’s to home in on the things that are most top of mind, priorities and relevant to your business and your ideal customer or client. By narrowing down and defining your ideal customer, you can ensure that your marketing is tailored perfectly to the people who will actually buy and love your products or services – and enable you to reach more of them. So how can you identify them and get to know them better? The 5 steps are Research, Analyse, Create, Test, and Refine. Your avatar starts to take form from your market research – where you’re gathering data on your target market; analyse – where you’ll be drawing ‘ideals’ from your existing customer base, and looking at your analytics, as well as your competitors. Now, you’re set to complete the other three steps where you create your buyer persona based on your best insights about demographics and psychographics, then test your assumptions, and refine. You’ll repeat these steps until you have a clear & accurate picture of your ideal customer avatar. In a moment, we’ll go through a fast-start exercise to get you actually creating your own avatar. If you’re starting from scratch and haven’t done any research or analysis, this may feel hard – you’ll go on tacit knowledge for now. Just be imaginative, get curious…. It’s just a first stab at doing this – and I’m going to guide you through it – you won’t land it right away, and even if you did build out something quite detailed, it’s unlikely to be spot on right away – you’ll need to test and refine a few times before you have it fully dialled in. Let’s go through each step again in more detail so you learn exactly what to do, in a practical sense. 1. Conduct market research Start by gathering data on your target market. This may include demographics such as age, gender, location, income level, and education. You can also gather psychographic information, such as personality traits, values, interests, and lifestyle choices. Great places to get this is from book reviews or online groups that your ideal client is likely to read or contribute to. This research will help you understand the needs, interests and preferences of your potential customers. For a more detailed look at things, you can line up interviews and run focus groups or surveys to understand your customers. Here, you have the advantage of customising your questions, so you get answers that provide the info you’re after. You can also use a semi-structured interview approach, such that you have a set of key questions yet are equally open to taking the conversation in whichever direction the participant leads. This can help you avoid ‘leading the witness’ so to speak, and putting too much emphasis on your own assumptions or bias, and have the findings come up more organically. If you haven’t yet found any particular patterns in your market research so far, using this looser structure is a great way to open things up more. So, make sure you’re asking open questions (that is not yes/no or short answers that don’t give you much depth)… if you get short answers, keep going, You can use ‘tell me more’ or ‘can you say more about that … ‘ and again see where the conversation naturally goes. 2. Analyse your existing data The first place to grab customer data is from your website analytics – you’ll need to have google analytics set up on your site and google search console. So if you’re not sure about that, search ‘how to set up google analytics’ or ‘how to set up google search console’ and you’ll see a tonne of free guides, step-by-steps and videos at your disposal. Or you can ask your web developer or site host provider. From your site analytics, you can get decent insight as you can see what your web traffic is clicking on. This gives you some good signals as to their interests, goals and aims. The second place to find existing data is your current customers and identify the ones who are most engaged and profitable to your business. Determine what they have in common, such as demographic or psychographic characteristics, and use that information to create a profile of your ideal customer. And thirdly, you can go back to your notes or recordings and transcripts of your discovery calls and sales conversations where you will have asked questions about any concerns, challenges, or lifestyle points. And now you will need to analyse, codify and consolidate the patterns and themes emerging from that set of data. 3. Develop buyer persona Based on your market research and analysis of your existing customer base, you should be able to develop a fairly detailed marketing persona for your ideal buyers. Your persona should include information such as the customer’s name, age, job title, goals, challenges, pain points, and buying behaviours. 4. Test your assumptions Once you’ve created your buyer personas, test them by reaching out to potential customers and gathering feedback. Having a cup of coffee with your “ideal client” is a great and effective process to share your avatar – stay focused and you’ll uncover deep truths. Ask them if they can relate to the persona you’ve created, and if not, what changes you could make to improve it. 5. Refine your customer avatar Based on the feedback you receive, refine your customer avatar until you have a clear and accurate picture of your ideal customer. Use this information to tailor your marketing efforts and create products and services that meet their needs and preferences. Overcoming Mental Blocks to Avatar Work I know that some entrepreneurs have a mental block about narrowing their audience, or get stuck trying to perfectly define their niche and ideal customer – and I find that it helps to not think of your niche or ideal client simply as a set of demographics or characteristics, it’s way more nuanced that that. Instead start by thinking about (a) the essential qualities of a great customer or client, mentioned earlier, (b) the common challenges they face, and (c) the typical transformations or outcomes those people are seeking, that you’re well equipped to help them with. You should spend a fair amount of time on the psychographics of your ideal customer and you should start to see a character appear – where you can actually visualise them! 1. Look at Your Current Client Base Rather than take a wild guess, take some time to work out the people you currently work with. If there are certain people you don’t enjoy working with, exclude them from your list. Take some time to look at their gender, age bracket, industry, location and income level. Ask them what drew them to working with you. This can quickly give you a good overview of “who is your who.” 2. Consider their Current Habits Digging a little deeper, ask yourself what is it that your ideal client reads. What do they Google? What information are they searching for? Where are they searching for this information? Do they use Android or Apple? Are they always on a mobile device or on a computer? Do they hang out on Facebook or on Linkedin? By knowing where they are and what they are looking for, you are able to reach them with ease. 3. Identify their Goals & Aspirations Knowing what your ideal client aspires to achieve can be key information for putting together suitable marketing content. If, for example, you are a fitness trainer who targets brides-to-be, knowing that your ideal client has a goal of dropping two dress sizes ahead of her big day will instantly appeal to her and have her listening to what you have to say. 4. Identify their Hopes & Fears People often make a purchase for one of two reasons: They have a desire they would like to be fulfilled or they have a problem that they need to be solved. If you can identify a challenge your ideal client currently faces and “bridge the gap” from their problem to a solution, it’s likely you will find yourself in high demand. For instance, if you find yourself feeling like you have aches and pains, you are likely to seek the services of a physiotherapist. If you find your vehicle running low on fuel, you would visit a fuel station in order to fill up. 5. Identify how they make their Buying Decisions People make purchases in different ways. Some purchase impulsively. Some take the time to research, read reviews and look at alternative options within the market. It’s important that you know the purchasing habits of your ideal client so you can ensure they have the right resources there to make a purchase. If, for example, your ideal client purchases impulsively, ensure that you have a website with a card payment facility. If your ideal client likes to research and gain assurance from other customers before they invest, then ensure you have an online facility where people can leave reviews and feedback. This will be key for your potential clients who are making a purchase decision. 6. Ask Yourself Who Would You Like To Work With It may seem obvious but if you enjoy working with someone, the process is often much easier and the results obtained are often much better. You need to be excited about who you work with. If it doesn’t excite you, then it will make your business unsustainable. If you could work with one demographic every day, who would that be? What would you help them do and what value could you deliver? 7. What Do They Need If you run a Facebook advert and are targeting everyone the social platform can reach, I can guarantee the return on investment would be poor. If you are selling pushchairs and your advert is showing up on a 24-year-old single male’s Facebook feed, the likelihood of making a sale is slim. If you already have a product or service, make a list of the reasons why people would need what you offer, including the changes it can provide in someone’s life as opposed to just listing the features. If your efforts are to serve everyone, you will actually end up serving no one. There are people out there who genuinely need and value what you offer and are ready to buy from you now. While most business owners usually know the answer intuitively, they are still not focusing closely on this as a component of their marketing strategy creation. I’ve found that following a step-by-step process to defining an ‘avatar’ for your business, invariably leads to greater clarity and a more focused marketing strategy. The most common first question I get from my business consulting clients when we start this process is, “How do I identify the target market?” or “How do I identify the target audience?” The mistake they are making here is that they are thinking of whom they are targeting as a “target market”. As I have explained before, target markets don’t work. The first thing you need to do is think of targeting a person not a target audience. The next question is, “Well, how do I select this target person or avatar?” This is a valid question, and actually requires more structured thought than you might initially think. You want to focus on the characteristics that are most relevant to what you do and what you help people with. You don’t need to know if someone loves animals unless you sell pet products or pet trainings. You really don’t need to know what they like for breakfast if you’re an accountant. But you would if you are a health coach. Think about questions that have most relevance for your business. Some broad questions that are useful to most of us are questions like: What does your ideal customer do for a living? Why do they buy from you? What behaviours are they driven by? Are you servicing all of their needs or just some? What are their preferences, habits, needs, responsibilities and favourite resources that relate to what you help people with? Most businesses have more than one marketing persona. For example, if you’re a florist, your main customer groups may include: - Businesses who regularly order displays for their lobby or offices. - Husbands buying bouquets for their wives for events like Valentine’s Day or their anniversary. - Families ordering wreaths and flowers for funerals. - Brides looking for bouquets and displays for their weddings. As you can see, each of these groups is completely unique. Their motivations for buying, and what they are looking for is very different – and as a result you would target your marketing for each group equally differently. Each of these groups would have a different persona that would help you understand how to talk to and reach them. For example: - Your persona for businesses may be Sue, a 35-year-old PA to the managing director who loves lilies and spends her lunch break on Facebook. - Your persona for husbands may be John, a busy, stressed manager. He likes to be reminded to buy via email so he doesn’t get in trouble for forgetting important days. - Your persona for bereaved families may be Sheila. She was married to her husband for 40 years and is looking for a compassionate, understanding florist who makes suggestions. She looks through the ads in the local paper. - Your bride persona is Charlotte. Her wedding planner recommended you, and she loves that you’re knowledgeable about the latest bridal trends and can source unusual blooms. The ABC Fast Track ICA Exercise Now let’s go through this fast-track ICA exercise together here, where you’ll take a rough cut through creating your avatar. You can it in real time as you listen or read and see how far you get just brainstorming it, and later you can download the worksheet and start deepening the layers. A = Actual + desirable clients B = Building out the blueprint C = Congratulations! Now what? When you’re ready, open up your notepad, paper or digital whichever you have handy. if you approach this with an air of curiosity, you should find this a fun exercise. It’ll be a bit rough and ready, but hopefully it will get you going in the right direction. We’re going to condense things quite a bit, and you will have lots of gaps … so i’ll talk about what you can do after this session to dig deeper. If you struggle on some of the steps and the information. I’m asking you to write down, skip it for now, and move forward. By the time you finish each question, you at least have some kind of draft to work further from. Opt in below to download the ICA worksheet for this. Great work – keep going with this in your own time via the worksheet. Start by building a single avatar—but don’t stop there. Your business almost certainly has more than one ideal buyer. Sometimes people have more than one ICA so we build out a multi-customer persona and look for where they cross over. Any lucrative market segment with a distinct set of goals, information sources, pain points, etc. is deserving of a customer avatar. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll start churning out multiple avatars representing the different segments of your market. Use the momentum gained from this quick run-through and keep going, dive deeper. Add in layers from your market research, from your customer assessment to solidify the answers to create a story around your ideal customer avatar. What problems did you think Client 1 was facing, and what remedies did you have to give them? What were the goals of Client 2? Talk about how you can support them in this process. What were your ideal clients’ various objections and road blocks? These will come up most often in your discovery calls. Well, now you have already identified the questions, you can answer them in advance and share your solutions before the questions are asked, because they are the most common questions you will hear. With this knowledge, you will be conversing directly with your ideal client avatar!“If someone buys something, there’s a reason behind it.” You never make a purchase on a whim, with no prior thought at all. This is essentially what the psychographic information tells you; why is your customer behaving in this specific way? This knowledge is also crucial for content marketing and social media posts, and can help you stand out. Write a series of Facebook posts or Tweets using the responses to these questions. You won’t be writing general material any longer; instead, you’ll be helping the people you want to do business with. You’ll also need to determine your avatar’s role in the purchasing process. • Are they the primary decision maker? • Are they a decision influencer? If your avatar is NOT the primary decision maker, you’ll need to come up with a strategy to appeal to whoever that person is. Here’s a BONUS from this exercise that you can implement right away… Take your answers and build out the psychographics into a set of questions you can use for discovery calls! As you’re going through the discovery call with your potential new client, or as you’re creating your new content to reach them, you’ll be able to address their questions in advance! Now Bring Your Avatar to Life Take the time now, no matter what stage your business is at, to identify your client avatar, so you’re not wasting your time marketing to a generic client. (By the way, “Generic Clients” do not exist, so they are not going to work with you or buy your products! Just saying …🙂) Every aspect of your business is dependent upon knowing exactly who you are marketing to. From your product creation, services offered, content platforms, messaging, email marketing, all the way to the look and feel of your branding, everything should all be focused on your client avatar. What will appeal to them, how can you help them, what will attract their interest and solve their problems? Where you market is dependent upon your client avatar too. If you are spending all of your time marketing on Facebook or Instagram and your client avatar is solely on LinkedIn, then you’re wasting your time and not being seen; possibly you’re feeling this in your struggle to gain more clients and grow your business right now. With avatar work, what you don’t want is to end up with just a document of words, you want to be able to clearly visualise your ideal customer. Think of your avatar as creating a character. If they are female, you’re going to determine: • Her characteristics • What makes her tick • What she loves • What scares her • What excites her You get to tell this avatar’s story – create your own little story – it’s a lot of fun! But, this isn’t a bestseller novel you’re writing … it’s a customer avatar, so you need to define the characteristics your ideal customer is going to have. Based on the work you do in the ICA exercise, you’re going to decide your avatar’s: • Demographics – This is the bones of your avatar. Give her an age, income, gender, marital status, education, and where she lives. • Psyche – Get in your avatar’s head and describe her family life, her job, her habits, desires, fears, goals, attitude. Give her a personality. • Pain points and challenges – What keeps your avatar up at night? What’s her deepest darkest desire? What’s getting in her way? • Role in the purchasing process – What’s stopping your avatar from buying your product? What’s she looking for that would cause her to buy your product? Who’s the ultimate decider in purchasing? • Reading habits and media use – Where does your avatar get her information? Where does she hang out? Does she use social media? Which ones are her favourites? What magazines and books is she most likely to read? The data you’ve gathered will help you determine your avatar’s personality and existence for your business. Take a look at your data and then start narrowing down those traits and build your avatar. Based on the work you do in the ICA exercise, you can really build a wonderful character that depicts your ideal customer. There are some fun tools that help you create a visual depiction of your avatar. In the next episode, the final third instalment, we’ll move into application – how to use your ideal client avatar to inform and drive all of your content planning and copy. Here’s the ICA worksheet exercise again … speak soon.

Jessica Ridgeway’s justice is coming. An arrest was made today. Glory, hallelujah. But the boy was 17 – barely past being a child himself. What on earth??? Rest in Peace, little Jessica. And I am praying for her family, too…. And just yesterday brothers, ages 15 and 17, were arrested in New Jersey for killing a 12 year old girl and stuffing her body into a recycle container. We need to be crying out for the children, for all of them. Life, life! May they know and understand the sanctity of life, and choose life. And LORD, help us show them hope. Wake us up as parents and adults to be examples of taking responsibility for our actions and not living in a state of entitlement that makes everything about ‘me-me-me’. Lord, help us turn back the tide. Help us step up and do the repenting it takes (as YOUR people) to heal. our. land! When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer made in this place. 2 Chronicles 7.13-15 NKJV

I have done something weird to my foot. My heel to be precise. It feels like I am walking around with a stone stuck in my shoe, but I am not wearing shoes. It hurts all the way up the sides of my heel too. I must be walking in a somewhat bizarre way now to compensate because the calf muscle on that leg is feeling strained. I am not talking about mild discomfort here. I mean, I laid in bed last night crying it hurt so bad. Now, if I stepped on something and bruised it, I have no idea what it was or when it was. So, I guess I am just going to limp myself around today and take Advil and hope for the best. More importantly, I am going to use it as an excuse to get out of mopping my floors. “Would love to mop, dear, but my foot hurts. Maybe tomorrow.” I mean, come on, you know you would do it too. All I know is that this is some big time pain that really needs to go away NOW. I have a field trip to go on tomorrow with Kidlet Sr. This is just going to slow me down. Trust me, I don’t want to be slow when I am in charge of a class of 4th graders at an Outdoor Learning Center, thankyouverymuch. (If you know of any miracle cures or remedies, let me know. I will be forever in your debt.)

Hello! I am Jeromy Alexander, the photographer of Sara’s skydive. I apologize as I have created an image of her article that included my photo and of course linked it to the full article at your website and I had hoped to more of Sara’s work for people to follow and read. Also, it was and is my crowning achievement as a photographer from Jackson, my centerfold work. Even if just by being in the right place at the right time, 14,000 feet 😉 I have recently resumed writing myself and am no longer skydiving after an incident in Florida earlier this year. In the process of brushing up my own website, JeromyAlexander.Com, I noticed that on my page: Where I use the above image, the link I point my readers to: Is no longer directed to the full article written by Sara, as I realized the link I used was a generic link to the top featured stories on the home page. So that I might most fully accredit Sara’s work and the work of the entire magazine, et all, may you share with me a better link to the full work, so that I might replace the one I am using which currently points to a wonderful article by Linda Learman. EDIT: Having heard no response by 12/16/2022, I’ve posted an image of the original first page of the story by Sara Hilton below and I will leave the link to Homefront’s third current article above, however it might change over time.

A rare first-of-its-kind collaboration took place between the Israeli IL MAKIAGE makeup brand and the British Arsenal women’s soccer team, managing to grab the attention of the audience, with the brand’s logo appearing on the team’s uniforms and in the stadiums. The multi-year agreement is designed to promote collaborative efforts between the brands and to mount an advertising campaign. “The global activity of IL MAKIAGE is growing at a dizzying pace, with the establishment of our foothold in the UK market,” said IL MAKIAGE Israel CEO Yonatan Arn, who praised this partnership as something that celebrates strong women. “We are excited about the launch and are proud to continue encouraging women all over the world to shatter glass ceilings.” Focus on My Game Face “Arsenal has been at the forefront of women’s soccer since 1987,” said Arsenal commercial department head Juliet Slott. “The success of the players has sparked interest and we are determined to keep building on that success.” She continued: “The incredible support we have received from IL MAKIAGE, who hold similar values to us, will help us develop women’s soccer. We are excited to work together to support Arsenal Women’s continued growth while showcasing the strength, skill, talent and joy that permeates women’s soccer.” An extensive campaign was launched in the UK in the media as well as in stadiums during the team’s matches, led by the slogan – “Focus on My Game Face.”

Chevron engineered wood flooring is a type of artificial wood flooring designed with a chevron pattern. It is a manufactured wood flooring that consists of thin layers of wood glued to a stronger wood substrate at the bottom. The chevron pattern on this flooring consists of wood pieces arranged at a 45-degree angle, creating a continuous V pattern along the floor. It comprises a layer of genuine wood on top of a stronger wood substrate, making it more resistant to temperature and humidity changes compared to solid wood flooring. This type offers an elegant and contemporary look, with the chevron pattern adding an artistic touch to the floor. It is available in various wood types and colors, allowing you to choose one that suits your interior design style and preferences. In terms of maintenance, this engineered wood flooring requires the same care as solid wood flooring, such as regular cleaning and protection against scratches and damage. With the strength and beauty of the chevron pattern, it is a popular choice for creating an elegant and modern ambiance in your home or space. Benefits of Using Chevron Wood Flooring Chevron engineered wood flooring offers several advantages that make it a popular choice among homeowners. - Stylish and Unique Design The chevron pattern creates a visually striking and unique look, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. It can serve as a focal point or enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of a room. It can complement various interior design styles, from contemporary and modern to traditional and rustic. It offers versatility in terms of aesthetics, allowing it to be used in different rooms and settings. - Illusion of Space The diagonal lines of the chevron pattern can create a sense of movement and depth in a room. This can be particularly advantageous in smaller spaces, as it can visually expand the area and make it appear more open. - Durability and Stability Engineered wood flooring is known for its durability and stability. It is less prone to warping or shrinking due to changes in temperature and humidity compared to solid wood flooring. The layered construction of engineered wood provides added strength and stability. - Easy Installation Available in pre-fabricated planks with the chevron pattern already set. This makes the installation process more straightforward and efficient compared to creating a chevron pattern from scratch. - Compatibility with Underfloor Heating Engineered wood flooring, including chevron designs, is compatible with underfloor heating systems. The layered construction of engineered wood allows for better heat distribution, making it a suitable choice for homes with underfloor heating. Many engineered wood flooring options, including chevron designs, are made from sustainable and responsibly sourced materials. This makes them an environmentally-friendly flooring choice. Cons Using Chevron Engineered Wood Flooring While chevron engineered wood flooring offers numerous advantages, it’s important to consider some potential drawbacks before making a decision. Here are some cons: More expensive than other types of flooring options, including regular engineered wood flooring or laminate flooring. The intricate chevron pattern requires precision and additional labor during the manufacturing process, which can contribute to higher costs. - Installation Complexity: More challenging and time-consuming compared to regular plank flooring. The precise alignment and angling of the chevron pattern require skilled installation to achieve the desired look. Hiring a professional installer is often recommended to ensure proper installation. - Limited Design Flexibility The chevron pattern may not suit every interior design style or personal preference. It has a distinct and bold aesthetic that may clash with certain decor choices or be less versatile compared to more neutral flooring options. It’s important to consider whether the chevron pattern aligns with your long-term design vision. - Limited Repair Options In the event of damage or wear, repairing or replacing individual chevron pieces can be challenging. The precise angling and pattern matching may require specialized expertise and could result in visible inconsistencies if not handled properly. It’s essential to take proper care of the flooring to minimize the need for repairs. - Sound and Footfall Noise Some homeowners find that engineered wood flooring can produce more sound and footfall noise compared to solid wood flooring. While the layered construction of engineered wood provides stability, it may not offer the same sound-absorbing qualities as thicker solid wood flooring. - Lifespan and Resurfacing Limitations Unlike solid wood flooring, which can be sanded and refinished multiple times to rejuvenate its appearance, engineered wood flooring has a limited ability to be sanded. The thickness of the top wood layer determines the number of times it can be sanded and refinished, which may be less than solid wood options. - Environmental Considerations While many engineered wood flooring options are made from sustainable materials, it’s important to research and choose products from reputable manufacturers who prioritize environmentally friendly practices. Additionally, the adhesives used in the construction of engineered wood flooring may contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which can contribute to indoor air quality concerns. Consideration in Selecting Chevron Wood Flooring After we know about the benefits and cons, there are several factors to consider when deciding to choose this type of flooring: - Aesthetics Appeal Offers a unique and visually striking pattern that can add a sense of sophistication and elegance to a space. If you appreciate the unique and distinctive chevron pattern and believe it complements your interior design style, it can be a great choice. - Interior Design Style Chevron patterns are often associated with a more contemporary or modern design aesthetic. If your home or space follows a similar style, chevron engineered wood flooring can complement the overall look and feel of the room. - Room Size and Layout The chevron pattern can create an illusion of movement and depth in a room. It can be particularly suitable for larger spaces, as the diagonal lines can help make the room appear more expansive. Additionally, chevron patterns can be used strategically to draw attention to specific areas or features in the room. - Maintenance and Durability Engineered wood flooring, including chevron engineered wood flooring, is generally durable and more resistant to temperature and humidity changes than solid wood flooring. However, it’s essential to follow proper maintenance guidelines to preserve its appearance and longevity. Consider your budget for flooring materials and installation. Chevron engineered wood flooring may have different price points depending on the quality, wood species, and brand. Compare costs and evaluate whether it fits within your budget. - Personal Preference Ultimately, the choice of flooring should align with your personal preference and style. If you are drawn to the unique and eye-catching chevron pattern and believe it will enhance the overall ambiance of your space, then chevron engineered wood flooring can be a suitable option. It’s important to consider other practical factors as well, such as budget, installation requirements, and maintenance. Consulting with a flooring professional or interior designer such as PT Jati Luhur Agung can also provide valuable guidance in choosing the right flooring option for your specific needs and preferences. Please call our customer and our team will be glad to assist you in making an informed decision regarding whether chevron engineered wood flooring is the optimal choice to meet your specific needs and circumstances.

Jasmine Gold Dragon Summer in Banff is met with wholehearted celebration. Jasmine Gold Dragon Tea is one of the finest Jasmine tea’s available. The Jasmine tree only blooms during May and June. The blossom, which lasts for about 12 hours, comes out at night after the sun goes down. About half way through the night the fragrance is at it’s peak and it is at this time the blossoms need to be picked and layered into the tea, by morning most of the fragrance has disappeared from the blossom, but if the tea maker has done his job correctly, this heavenly scent has been transferred to the tea and captured in time. Organic Ingredients: Premium green tea with jasmine

When Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government broke its debt taboo and turned on the money spigots to help the German economy weather the pandemic crisis, it vowed to return to fiscal toughness as soon as possible. But as the post-Merkel era approaches, voters may have other ideas. In the last run-up to the September 26 polls that will see Merkel exit after 16 years, polls show her CDU-CSU alliance lags behind the centre-left Social Democrats (SPD). Hoping to turn the tide, the Conservatives are back on their favorite lines of attack. SPD leader Markus Soeder warned the SPD’s candidate for the top position, Finance Minister Olaf Schulz, not to be a “debt adviser”. Conservative millionaire Frederick Merz, the CDU’s economic policy spokesman, said taxpayers would end up footing the bill for the SPD-led government’s “free beer” policies. Schulz himself has said he wants higher taxes for high-income earners and the reintroduction of a wealth tax to help fund much-needed investments in Europe’s largest economy. Whoever wins, any future German government will face a “difficult choice” between “changing the budget rules” to suit economic realities, or “sharply reducing the public deficit,” says Patrick Artus, chief economist at Natixis. Germany’s balanced finances have been turned upside down during the pandemic, with the Merkel government taking on 370 billion euros ($438 billion) in new debt in 2020 and 2021. Total public debt is expected to exceed 70 percent of GDP this year, up from 59.7 percent before the pandemic. – I am watching – Germany under Merkel is known for its budget discipline – and at times for imposing it on fellow Europeans – but pandemic spending forced it to suspend the “debt brake” written into the constitution in 2009. The law prohibits the government from borrowing more than 0.35 percent of its GDP, except in “exceptional circumstances” approved by Parliament. Between January and March of this year, the public deficit exceeded 80 billion euros, equivalent to 4.7 percent of GDP. It’s a long way from Germany’s cheerful “black zero” budget — the acronym given to balancing the books and the goal the country consistently achieved between 2014 and 2019. The crisis also saw Merkel lead the EU’s €800 billion coronavirus recovery fund, which will be financed by joint borrowing for the first time – crossing a German red line on pooling EU debt. But European members watching the elections and hoping for a shift in German debt positions may be disappointed. With a battle over easing strict EU budget rules looming, Schultz ruled out any changes at the latest meeting of EU finance ministers. He said the pandemic showed that the bloc’s financial rules already had enough flexibility. – ‘Huge amounts’ – By Merkel’s own admission, Germany will have to “spend huge amounts of money in the coming years”. Marcel said the country’s biggest challenges – energy transformation, climate protection and digital infrastructure – mean that “40 to 50 billion euros of public investment per year, between 1 and 1.5 percent of GDP, will be required over the next 10 years”. Fratzscher is president of the DIW Center for Economic Thought. To solve this budget equation, Fracher said, it would be necessary to “fix” the debt brake to reflect the standards of the European Union, which carries a deficit of up to three percent of GDP. The problem: Any change to the debt rule must be approved by a two-thirds majority in the German parliament. – Another road – “The ruling parties have to find another way to get around the rule,” Fracher said. Much will depend on the balance of power between the parties in the next German coalition. And Fracher said holding on to the debt brake would be “impossible without tax increases” – something the Conservatives have ruled out. The left-wing Green Party, fantasizing about their chances of being part of the next government, wants to adjust the debt brake to allow 50 billion euros to be borrowed for investment annually until 2030. The SPD is open to more public spending, but within the limited range that the constitutional brakes allow. jpl-sea / mfp / lth

The presidents of the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) and Harvard University posted comments online Wednesday seeking to clarify their position after refusing to state unequivocally that calling for the genocide of Jews violates their bullying rules. The presidents were joined by the president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) on Tuesday when reprimanded in Congress for their responses to the rise of anti-Semitism on their respective campuses since the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7. Lawmakers asked presidents whether calling for the genocide of Jews violated schools’ bullying and harassment policies. School presidents generally said the speech could be investigated if necessary, but it would be a decision based on context if it violated school policies. Harvard President Claudine Gay, who took some of the biggest hits at the hearing, said it has been a difficult task to balance free speech and student safety during these times. In a statement posted online, she said: “There are some who have confused the right to free speech with the idea that Harvard will tolerate calls for violence against Jewish students.” “Let me be clear: calls for violence or genocide against the Jewish community, or any religious or ethnic group, are vile, have no place at Harvard, and those who threaten our Jewish students will be held accountable.” gay said. UPenn President Liz Magill also released a video after the hearing to clarify his statements on Tuesday. “At that time, I focused on our University’s long-standing policies, aligned with the United States Constitution, which say that speech alone is not punishable,” Magill said in the video. “I did not focus, but should have, on the irrefutable fact that a call for the genocide of the Jewish people is a call for some of the most terrible violence that human beings can perpetrate.” Magill went on to say that, in his opinion, a call for the genocide of the Jews “would be harassment or intimidation.” He said UPenn and other universities should review and clarify their policies, as hate is running rampant across campus “in a way that hasn’t been seen in years.” Magill said he would immediately “convene a process” with the chancellor to “seriously and carefully” analyze the university’s policies. MIT President Sally Kornbluth has not issued a statement following her testimony at the hearing. At the hearing, she said that she was not aware of any calls for the genocide of Jews on the MIT campus. The remarks come after the Biden administration, Republican presidential candidates and several lawmakers have commented on their answers of the audience. Copyright 2023 Nexstar Media Inc.

Juice it Up: The Pros and Cons of Juicing As healthy eating and living have become increasingly popular in recent years, so have juicing vegetables and fruit for their purported health benefits. But is juicing really as healthy as people claim? Are there any potential pitfalls to watch out for? If you’re considering adding juicing to your diet or lifestyle, it’s important to weigh the pros and cons to see if it’s right for you. The benefits of juicing include getting more vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants into your diet. It can also help you boost your intake of important nutrients. It can also help you increase your intake of fruits and vegetables, which are essential for good health. However, juicing also has some potential drawbacks. For example, juicing can remove some beneficial fiber from fruits and vegetables. This can cause blood sugar levels to rise sharply and can be problematic for people who already have difficulty regulating their blood sugar. Giving Up Insoluble Fiber Is Not Healthy Fiber is a roughage that benefits food’s efficient and smooth digestion as it moves through our system. When you juice fruits and vegetables, you destroy most of the insoluble fiber during the pulverization process. Pulverizing the fruit or vegetable actually destroys most of the insoluble fiber content. This is different with smoothies that retain all parts of the vegetable and fruit blended with the fiber. However, juicing does include lots of soluble fiber, which is also critical for digestive health. This loss of insoluble fiber also means that when you drink juice, your body is not feeling as full or as satisfied as it would if the fiber was present. Clearly, this may have implications for those who are trying to lose weight. Getting A Rush Of Blood Sugar As your fruits are pulverized and lose that insoluble fiber, they release fructose content that is usually bound up in the fiber and digested slowly. Releasing it into the juice this way means that your body can absorb it much more rapidly. And that you are ingesting a huge amount of natural sugars in one hit. This spikes your blood sugar levels and can be dangerous for those who have diabetes. Juicing with mostly fruits will increase your sugar intake and potentially lead to weight problems. This is the opposite of what we are often told about juicing and its health benefits. This is why experts recommend using a ratio of 80% to 20% vegetables to fruits in all recipes or even 90% to 10%. This allows you to use fruit for flavor and not as the main star, so you get all the nutrients of vegetables and an added boost in taste. The Non-Benefits of Nude Food There’s a good reason why we cook our vegetables and sometimes our fruits. Cooking plant-based foods help break down the plant cell walls and release certain nutrients trapped there. When you juice, these cell walls are not broken down, and some essential nutrients are unavailable for absorption by your body. When we cook our own vegetables, we also get the opportunity to add healthy fats. This is because fat helps our bodies absorb vital nutrients. Including vitamins K, A, D, and E. By ensuring that our diet includes healthy fats, we can help our bodies function properly and get the nutrients we need. Cooking food properly is essential for human health, as it can help to kill off harmful bacteria and improve the nutrient content of meals. It’s no accident that humans have been cooking food for many thousands of years and surviving. Over time, humans have developed a great deal of knowledge about how to cook various types of food, ensuring that our meals are delicious and nutritious. Juicing Is A Waste Of Food – Removes Fiber From Fruits And Vegetables. It takes about 12 apples to make a single large apple juice. That’s a lot of apples! Most of us wouldn’t eat 12 apples in a row to get some of the health benefits from them. In fact, we’d likely be feeling full after only 2 apples. This tells us that juicing strips most of the essential fibers from fruits and vegetables and eats up many fruit and vegetable resources to make a few juices! Suppose you had one fruit and vegetable juice every morning. Can you imagine how many fruits and vegetables you would use yearly? It’s a process that gets expensive very quickly. Is Juicing Really So Good? While juicing does have some potential downsides, the health benefits of incorporating fresh juice into your diet outweigh the cons. Even when you consider the potential drawbacks of juicing, such as the loss of essential fiber, the process is still generally regarded as healthy. This is especially true for those who don’t have the time to eat whole vegetables or may be missing essential nutrients in their diet. So, juicing is an excellent option if you’re looking to boost your nutrient intake. Just be sure to drink in moderation and to pair your juices with a healthy diet full of whole foods.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Welcome to the frequently asked questions. In this section, you will find the answers you are looking for about the products and services offered by the company TRESORNET LLC: namely the Ebooks, Personalized Tracking and Clothing programs of the site. The julienquaglierini.com website is dedicated to offer E-books programs established by the company TRESORNET LLC. These training and nutritional programs are for a period of 3 months and can be renewed. The format of each program is a PDF that can be downloaded to a smartphone or computer and is accessible for life. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are in good health and able to perform the exercises in the proposed programs. The site does not sell programs to minors. You must be at least 18 years old to purchase a product from the site. If you are under 18, you may use these E-books only under the supervision of a parent or guardian. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - EBOOKS PROGRAMS 1) Who are these E-books for bodybuilding aimed at? The E-books programs are designed for all men and women who wish to progress in bodybuilding independently, whatever their objectives. Each program has a specific objective. For more information on each of them, please go to the program tab of the site and read the description. If you don't know which program to choose, you have a free Quiz that will help you find out: QUIZ TRESORNET LLC is in no way responsible for the improper execution of the training exercises or even the non-execution of the programs. It's up to you to stick to it. To help you, these PDFs include a video of the execution of each exercise to help you progress in this direction. 2) How will I receive my E-book program? After reading the description, choosing your program(s), and validating your order, you will receive your invoice and a summary of your order by email. It contains a download link and thus allows you to access your training and / or nutritional program (download valid on your smartphone, tablet or your PC according to your choice). Once the download links have been clicked and therefore the digital file order(s) have been downloaded on any medium whatsoever, they are deemed to be firm and final and may not give rise to any exchange or refund in accordance with the GTC and the law of digital books. 3) I train at home, what equipment do I need? The majority of the digital programs offered are done in the gym and are composed of 90 % of bench, bar and dumbbells. It is up to you to find a replacement exercise if you do not have the required equipment. Some of the programs offer a home gym edition as a bonus to train at home. You will find this information on each program page in the FAQ section. Finally, if you don't have any equipment, you still have a bodyweight program: ZERO GYM 4) In the diet, should we count proteins from rice or other proteins? When you start a nutritional program, you have to count everything in the calculation of calories, and nothing is lost. Therefore, you must be rigorous on the calculation. Whether you want to gain muscle mass, lose fat, slim down... 5) Can I change the order of my workouts? You can schedule your sessions as you wish according to your schedule and your life. If you don't have time to go to the gym, you continue your plan where you left off. However, if you miss several sessions, your progress will probably take longer. 6) Is there a guide for dietary supplements in digital programs? The digital programs contain a detailed sheet of food supplements with advice. A brand of supplements is recommended but you are free to choose the one that suits you. However, if taking supplements is often practical in some cases, it is not essential to achieve your goals. Only training, nutrition and recovery are. 7) How do I transfer from the Physics Pro MASS Program to SHREDZ and vice versa? You can switch from the Physics Pro MASS at Physics Pro SHREDZ without any problem. On the other hand, for the opposite, it is strongly advised to take a break of at least 1 month (with calculation of maintenance calories) before starting the next step. 8) I have a problem and I do not receive the download link or my invoice, what should I do? Start by checking your spam. If you haven't received anything, you can send an email to [email protected] to solve this problem or use the chat on the bottom right. A reply will be made as soon as possible. 9) How long will I have access to my program? You will have access to your program for life. If you start it again at another time of the year, you must recalculate your calories and macros at that time. 10) What is the difference between an E-book program and a fully personalized coaching? The digital programs in the form of E-books are in ultra detailed PDF format. This allows you to progress independently. They can be adapted to each person by you and you have all the methods to calculate your own needs in calories and macros. The advice to progress... but you will progress alone in your goal. The totally personalized coaching is a real complete follow-up 100 % on measure. It is done over a period of 3 months minimum (6 months and 1 year formula if needed) with an access to a platform, as well as a detailed questionnaire of several pages to be sent to [email protected]. By completing this questionnaire, you certify the accuracy of the information provided. This allows the coach to establish training plans according to your available equipment (gym or home gym) and your pathologies. But it also allows you to build a diet tailored to your lifestyle and your schedule. Finally, it is really an accompaniment with your coach because you have access to him throughout your coaching for any questions and he will encourage you for the slightest drop in motivation. For more information on this formula, contact the team: [email protected] It is your responsibility to make sure that you are in good health or to indicate your pathologies on your questionnaire and to be able to practice the proposed program and diet. 11) I don't know which program to choose, what should I do? It is essential to know your priorities and goals. You can't gain muscle mass and lose fat at the same time. You have a QUIZ available on the site to help you find the right goal. Following this, you have a digital program offered but if you prefer coaching, you can also choose this option by booking directly. Moreover, if you are still not sure with the quiz, you also have the possibility to send a picture with your detailed request to have the expert opinion of Julien QUAGLIERINI or his team at [email protected]. You will receive an answer as soon as possible and a solution will be proposed to you. Just make sure that you really take action because advice is good but it will never replace any kind of support and a precise action plan to progress. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - PERSONALIZED COACHING AND FOLLOW-UP 1) Who is this personalized coaching and follow-up for? The programs in personalized follow-up or coaching are intended for all men and women who wish to progress with the accompaniment of a qualified coach whatever their objectives: Muscle gain, weight loss, slimming, preparation for a competition .... You will find all the description as well as all formulas here. The site does not sell programs to minors. You must be at least 18 years old to purchase a service from the Site. If you are under 18, you may only use the program under the supervision of a parent or guardian and with their permission. 2) I just want a food plan, is it possible? Yes, it is possible. You have 2 formulas for this: With or without follow-up On the other hand, the training plan alone is not proposed since the site already offers many digital supports in this sense. 3) What payment methods are accepted? The accepted means of payment are : STRIPE or otherwise by CB The fastest and easiest way to make secure payments. PAYPAL : Secure payment. Thanks to your PayPal account, you don't need to enter your bank details for each purchase. Your email address or your phone number are enough for you. Moreover, if you have an account, this service allows you to pay in several times (only in France, not valid for CANADA or some other countries) All the pages of the site respect the SSL protocol and are preceded by https:// (the "s" meaning secure), which guarantees the encryption and thus the total protection of your data before their transfer via Internet. The payment interface (system pay) of our website uses SSL encryption technology to protect all payment and user data. Your bank data is not stored and is processed by your bank's servers directly. You can therefore make your payments in complete security. For all other requests on another method of payment, you can do it by mail but know that checks and transfers are not accepted. If you wish to order clothes from the Julien Q collection, the site does not include delivery charges which will be added at the end of the order depending on the weight and quantity ordered. Delivery times vary between 10 and 12 working days after validation of the order in France and in Europe and 2 to 3 weeks outside the EU. It is your responsibility to leave a maximum of information on the address and its indications for the good progress of the delivery. If your parcel does not arrive at its destination, or if you have a question, please send an email to [email protected]. If you made a mistake on your size despite the guide at your disposal, you can send back the T-shirts at your expense and we will send you back the right size (while stocks last). To do so, please send us an email to [email protected] and we will give you the exact procedure to follow. Do you have a question that is not listed here? No problem, we invite you to ask it on the chat of the site or by mail to [email protected]. You will get an answer as soon as possible.

Just About is a fun, welcoming, and inclusive place for all of our members. The Community Code of Conduct is a friendly reminder that, through our actions and interactions, we each play a role in shaping the culture on the Just About platform. We want our members to feel able to fully engage and bring their whole selves to the community, so we ask that you respect each other and the Community Code of Conduct. You may find we’ve included things that other platforms have not, but we’re doing this because we want to raise the bar. The wellbeing of our members and our team comes first, so if that means the Just About platform is smaller than it otherwise would be, then that’s fine with us. If a member’s behaviour shows they are unwilling or unable to follow the Community Code of Conduct, then appropriate action will be taken to ensure Just About remains the fun and welcoming platform we all want it to be. The information given in this Code of Conduct is not exhaustive, and is subject to periodic revisions and updates. What is included There are two main sections below: Harmful Activity and Illegal or Deceptive Activity. In these sections, activity relates to types of content and behaviour that we should be mindful of while on the Just About platform and our social accounts. Content includes text, audio, images, videos, or links directing our members to these, and behaviour is both the actions we take and the manner in which we take them. Content and behaviour is considered inappropriate when they are: - Actual - has occurred or is actively occurring - Implied or inferred - is suggestive, such as threats or sexual innuendo - Encouraged - attempting to get others to participate or act - Glorified - celebrating actions, behaviours, or beliefs We believe the Just About platform should be a fun and welcoming environment for our members. Being exposed to harmful activity is not fun or welcoming. Simply put, harmful activity is any content or behaviour that inflicts or depicts harm, and this does not belong on the Just About platform. Harmful activities that are actual, implied, encouraged, or glorified, include: - Self-harm or suicide - Assault or graphic violence, including blood, gore, or depictions of death - Animal abuse - Torture, mass violence, or terrorism - Unwanted sexual attention - Sexual threats and sexual violence - Sexualisation of minors and non-consenting persons - Exposing others to sexual content, such as pornography or nudity in any form - Bullying and intimidation - Shaming and excessive blaming of others - Stalking and invasion of privacy - Extreme, excessive, or continuous profanity Human trafficking, slavery, and dehumanisation Glorification of hate groups and their beliefs Making others feel less than equal, such as comparing them to animals or devaluing their experiences Discrimination or othering based on a person’s protected characteristics, including: - National origin - Caste or social standing - Citizenship or immigration status - Race, perceived race, or ethnicity - Sexual orientation and objectification - Gender, gender identity, or gender expression - Religion, religious affiliation, or beliefs - Physical and personal health - Physical or mental disability - Medical condition or vaccination status - Veteran status - Familial, marital, or partnership status Illegal or Deceptive Activity The internet gives people a chance to craft and experiment with their personal identities, and that’s something we fully support. We do not support the use of tools intended to empower to instead exploit and victimise others. We expect everyone to respect all applicable local, national, and international laws, and to refrain from deceptive activities on, or relating to, the Just About platform and our members. Regardless of the method, the intended outcome, or whether permission was granted, illegal or deceptive activities include: Accessing or distributing information Accessing private information from any source, such as our members or the platform, and sharing it on the Just About platform Attempts to disrupt the normal functioning of the Just About platform Any breach of legal protections or duties, including: Unlawfully distributing copyrighted or stolen material Infringements on intellectual property Encouraging or participating in the distribution or use of harmful substances or information, including: - Accessing, producing, or distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) - Manufacturing, distributing, or the use of illegal drugs and misuse of legal substances, such as alcohol or legal drugs - Manufacturing or distributing firearms and other weapons Manipulation or misrepresentation - Impersonating others, including members of the community or Just About team - Misuse of the Just About reporting tools - Manipulation of the platform for the benefit or harm of any member - Any attempt to circumvent suspensions or bans - Spreading misinformation - Excessive use of AI-generated content, or where human input does not transform or contribute value to the output - Any attempt to hack, cheat, or exploit Just About’s bounty, reward, or treasury systems Again, this is not an exhaustive list, and in addition to the above, we encourage all members to understand and follow the spirit of the Code of Conduct as set out in our Core Values. If you feel you’ve been exposed to harmful, illegal, or deceptive activity on the Just About platform, then we want you to feel supported and heard. The report button under each discussion or response empowers our members to speak up, so please don’t be afraid to use it. We treat every report as confidential, and each one gets our full care and attention. Only Moderators and the JA team are able to see them, so you can feel safe knowing every report will be followed with an appropriate action. Finally, if anything is unclear, you can tag me ( @JasonBoomer ) or another member of the JA team in the comments. We’ll do our utmost to help and provide some clarity.

Something rather odd is happening in the two Europeans nations worst hit by Covid-19. The UK and Italy have a rising number of cases but a stable and very low number of deaths, even weeks after the cases started rising again. At the time of writing, the UK records 1750 new cases daily and one death in a population of 67 million. With a roughly similar population and an average of 602 cases a day, Italy has had just over four deaths a day over the last month. The ratio of cases to deaths is nowhere near what it was at the height of the pandemic. The other notable feature is a shift of cases to a younger population. There can be several explanations for this trend. First, the viral agent may have mutated to a less virulent form. Although there are some published studies showing minor mutations, these are what you would expect from an RNA virus which is inherently unstable (think of the influenza viruses, which perpetually change their suits). Second, we may have got better at dealing with Covid-19. Apart from dexamethasone in the small population admitted to intensive care units, there are no specific treatments for the disease, and as we are not observing a substantial increase in admissions or severity of the disease, this seems also an unlikely explanation. Third, our preventive measures may have worked, only allowing new cases when lapses have occurred. If this were the case we would expect effectiveness against all forms of acute respiratory infections, like the winter illnesses. This has indeed happened in the Southern hemisphere, but the age shift does not fit with this theory. A fourth possible and much more complex explanation is what we call the ‘reality problem’. There is rapidly accumulating evidence that the tests used worldwide to identify cases in a binary mode ‘Yes or No’ are being used in a simplistic and uncoordinated way. We have already explained the limits of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to carry out mass testing. PCR is a very sensitive test, which means that it detects the smallest fragments of the virus it is looking for by amplifying the sample millions of times. However, a fragment is not a whole virus, capable of replication and of infecting other human beings. It is a small part of the viral structure that the PCR primer is looking for, not the whole microorganism. Only whole viruses can infect us. To avoid this dual reality and the dangers of isolating non-infectious people or whole communities we need an international effort to standardise testing, periodic calibration against culture or other recognised measures of infectiousness and strict laboratory protocols and procedures probably with a central licensing authority. A lot more work needs to be done to correlate cycle thresholds, patients’ characteristics and intelligence on virus circulation. Medicine and public health are about people, not printouts. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/coronavirus-cases-are-mounting-but-deaths-remain-stable-why-HELP US SPREAD GOOD NEWS!

Setting up the Lightspeed Order Display Screen (ODS) is a multi-stage process that involves completing steps on the Apple TV you will use with the system and in the Back Office and contacting Support to complete setup. The Lightspeed ODS requires an Apple TV (4th generation or newer) running tvOS 14.5 or later and connected to a television or monitor via an HDMI cable. The Lightspeed Order Display Screen is available as a paid add-on to your existing Lightspeed Restaurant subscription. To add the Lightspeed ODS to your subscription, contact Support. Configuring Apple TV network settings Configure the network settings for the Apple TV you plan to use with the Lightspeed ODS by setting a fixed IP address that will enable it to communicate with POS devices connected to the same local network. Before continuing, ensure the Apple TV is connected physically with an Ethernet cable or wirelessly via Wi-Fi to the same local network used by POS devices in the restaurant. For help setting up a new Apple TV, see Apple support. - Open the Settings app on the Apple TV. - Select Network. - Make note of the Wi-Fi MAC Address or Ethernet Address listed under Status. This will be used later in step 10. - Under Connection, select Wi-Fi or Ethernet, depending on the network connection type. - If connected via Wi-Fi, click the name of the network. If connected by an Ethernet cable, skip this step. - Select Configure IP. - Click Manual. - Make note of the IP address listed for the Apple TV, then click Done. This IP address will be used later in the setup process to link the Apple TV to an account profile. The account profile will control which orders appear on the ODS. - Click Done on each of the next three screens to accept the default subnet mask, router IP address, and DNS address. - From a computer, access your router's admin page and create a DHCP reservation using the Apple TV's MAC or Ethernet address (step 3) and its IP address (step 8). For help doing so, visit our Setting up DHCP reservations article or see your router's manual or support page. Completing this step will prevent the Apple TV's IP address from being assigned to a different device if the Apple TV disconnects from the network. If this happens, the Apple TV will be unable to reconnect to the network. - Continue ODS setup by following the steps in Downloading the Lightspeed ODS app. Downloading the Lightspeed ODS app The Lightspeed ODS app runs on the Apple TV and displays orders as employees process them on POS devices. After configuring the Apple TV's network settings, download Lightspeed ODS to install it on the Apple TV. - Open the App Store app on the Apple TV. - Select the magnifying glass icon, and search for Lightspeed. - Click the Lightspeed ODS app. - Click Get to download the Lightspeed ODS app. - Click Get again to verify. - If necessary, follow the prompts to confirm the download using another Apple device or by entering the password for the Apple ID used on the Apple TV. - Continue ODS setup by following the steps in Setting up an ODS account profile. Setting up an ODS account profile Orders will only appear on the Order Display Screen when a specific type of account profile is applied to those orders in the Lightspeed Restaurant app. In the Back Office, create a new account profile or modify an existing one to use with the ODS. - Log in to the Back Office with your Lightspeed Restaurant account credentials. - From the navigation menu, go to Configuration > Settings > Account profiles. - Select Add an account profile to create a new account profile, or click Edit next to an existing profile to modify it. - Select Pick up from the Takeaway mode drop-down menu. - Select Complete when delivered or Complete manually in POS from the Order completion drop-down menu. - Complete when delivered: Orders using this account profile will automatically complete after changing their status to Picked up in the Restaurant POS app or after removing the ticket from a Lightspeed Kitchen Display System (receipt mode only). - Complete manually in POS: After updating an order's status to Picked up or removing it from a Lightspeed Kitchen Display System (receipt mode only), a POS user must tap Close order to manually complete the order. - Configure the other profile settings as desired. For help doing so, see Adding account profiles. - Click Save to save changes. - Continue ODS setup by following the steps in Linking the Apple TV and account profile. Linking the Apple TV and account profile Link the Apple TV to the account profile created during ODS setup so that orders will appear in the Lightspeed ODS app when the account profile is applied. Contact our Support team to activate the ODS feature for your account and link the Apple TV to the profile. The Lightspeed Order Display Screen is available as a paid add-on to your existing Lightspeed Restaurant subscription. - Contact our Support team. - Ask for the Lightspeed ODS feature to be enabled for your account.

A new and grave challenge confronted Esref, one that threatened to shatter his reputation and his very life. He was accused of being a Sabbahi, a member of a clandestine society plotting to overthrow the caliph. Though baseless, the accusation bore serious consequences, casting a shadow of uncertainty over Esref’s fate. The accusation originated from Ja’far, a formidable adversary known for his power and influence in Baghdad. Mastering the art of manipulation, Ja’far twisted truths to his advantage, spinning a web of deception that ensnared Esref. Ja’far presented his supposed evidence to the caliph, claiming that Esref had secretly collaborated with Sabbahis to topple the caliph’s rule. The caliph’s suspicions ignited, he ordered Esref’s arrest. Imprisoned without trial, Esref was denied his rights, cut off from his family and legal counsel. Ja’far’s gambit was clear – he hoped to break Esref, forcing a confession. Yet, Esref remained steadfast, refusing to admit guilt for a crime he did not commit. Outraged by Esref’s unjust incarceration, his supporters rallied against his accusers. The people of Baghdad took to the streets, chanting Esref’s name and demanding his release. The pressure on the caliph mounted, torn between appeasing the populace and addressing Ja’far’s allegations. In a bid for fairness, the caliph ordered a trial for Esref, appointing a judge known for his impartiality. Esref was granted the right to a fair hearing, a glimmer of hope in a dire situation. The trial was an arduous process, marked by the presentation of evidence from both sides. Esref’s enemies painted him as a conspirator, while his supporters vouched for his innocence. The judge, after careful deliberation, declared Esref not guilty, exonerating him from the false charges that had threatened to end his life. Esref’s acquittal sparked jubilation in the streets of Baghdad. Celebrations erupted as the people rejoiced in his vindication. Once again, Esref emerged as a hero, a beacon of justice and fairness in a city threatened by deception. Ja’far, defeated in his nefarious scheme, seethed with fury. His plans had crumbled, and his thirst for revenge burned bright. Esref, too, understood the looming danger, but his resolve remained unshaken. He recognized his duty to the people of Baghdad, steadfast in his commitment to lead justly. As the dust settled, Esref’s name remained untarnished, his character intact. He embodied courage, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to his city’s well-being. While Ja’far plotted revenge, Esref’s determination to serve and protect endured, an unyielding testament to the enduring power of truth and justice.

I was working in the hot shop today with Simon making glass billets for casting my large dance piece. I decided I wanted a watery vein of colour running through a clear glass piece and so after Simon poured the glass into the metal mould, I sprinkled the copper blue powder onto the glass and then stirred it around with a stick of graphite. They looked great at the time… We’ll see what they look like when they come out of the lehr. I’m so excited to start casting!! Hopefully by the end of this week my test piece mould will be dry enough to put in the kiln and attempt my first ever reservoir cast!

The lottery live draw sdy is a form of gambling in which people buy tickets for a chance to win a prize. The winnings can range from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars. The odds of winning a jackpot are very low, but the game is still popular with many Americans. However, there are some important things to consider before playing the lottery. The first is that if you win, the government will take taxes from your prize. This can be up to 40% of your winnings. This can easily put you into debt or even bankruptcy. The first lotteries in modern sense of the word appeared in the Low Countries in the 15th century, with towns trying to raise money for town fortifications and to help the poor. In the 17th century, they became increasingly common and were hailed as a painless form of taxation. In the United States, there are several different types of lotteries. Some are state-sponsored, while others are privately run or operated. Some are charitable, and others are commercial in nature. The lottery is one of the most popular forms of gambling, with more than half of all American adults participating in some way. A lottery is a process whereby prizes, typically cash or goods, are awarded to participants on the basis of random selection. While it may not be as fair as other forms of gambling, a lottery is still considered an acceptable method for awarding public funds, especially when the cost of collecting and distributing the funds is relatively small. It is also considered an alternative to traditional taxes, which can be perceived as unfair or corrupt. Lottery winners often face the same problems that other gamblers do, including a lack of financial discipline and an inability to handle large sums of money. To avoid these problems, lottery winners should set aside a portion of their winnings for savings, emergency funds, and other expenses. They should also limit their spending on lottery tickets and avoid playing games with a high house edge. Buying more tickets will increase your chances of winning, but you need to do it right. Choosing numbers that are close together will decrease your chance of winning, and you should avoid picking numbers that are associated with dates or other personal events. Instead, try to mix up the numbers you pick and cover a wide range of possibilities. In addition, you should never play numbers that end in the same digit. Those numbers are more likely to be picked than other numbers. Richard Lustig, a lottery winner who has won seven times in two years, recommends that you use statistics to improve your number selection strategy. These statistics can be found on the lottery’s website or in newspapers and magazines. These data can be analyzed to find a pattern that you can apply to your own lottery selection. However, remember that no one can predict exactly what will happen in a lottery draw, not even a paranormal creature.

ASAP Rocky and Rihanna Are Dating After Months of Rumors: Report Lord Pretty Flacko and Bad Gal RiRi are rumored to be in a relationship. On Monday (Nov. 30), Page Six reported that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were seen having dinner with friends at the Beatrice Inn in New York City over the holiday weekend, further confirming the rumors they are dating. Rumors of their relationship started after Rih split from her billionaire boyfriend, Hassan Jameel, in January. Since then, the pair have been spotted hanging out together on multiple occasions. Back in August, fans noticed their flirtation during a video interview for GQ featuring the two artists. RiRi asked Rocky questions about skincare to help promote her own Fenty skincare line. He also shared his first red carpet look, last purchase under $20, a food he would never eat and more. "What is your skin type?" Rihanna asked Rocky. "Handsome," he replied, to which Rihanna rolled her eyes. That same month, Rocky asked Rihanna questions for Vogue to also promo her Fenty skincare line. "My skin type is just as complicated as men are," Rihanna jokingly said when A$AP Rocky asked about her skin type for Vogue. "Y'all always try to say women are complicated [but] it's y'all!." These video interviews were cute moments between the two friends-reportedly turned-lovers and left fans wondering what a relationship between them would look like. Rocky also appeared in the Fenty Skin ad campaign alongside Rihanna and Lil Nas X in July. While this rumored relationship's details remain a mystery, The Sun reported back in January that Rihanna and Rocky had been seeing each other romantically. Rihanna and Rocky reportedly "shared a hotel suite during that trip in New York," a source allegedly said. However, also in January of this year, sources told E! News that RiRi was still single and not dating Rocky. The friendship between A$AP Rocky and Rihanna dates back to her Diamonds World Tour in 2013, where Rocky served as the opening act. Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have yet to confirm their relationship status to the public. See 17 Rappers Who Haven't Put an Album Out in a While That We'd Like to Hear From

Narendra Modi Gwalior Speech Update; Chittorgarh | Shivraj Singh Chouhan Ashok Gehlot Said in Gwalior – They are still committing the same sin; Said in Chittorgarh- Gehlot accepted defeat Jaipur/Bhopal18 minutes ago Narendra Modi’s last rally in Rajasthan was on September 25. His second rally took place on 2 October. Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Gwalior – Anti-development people used to play with the emotions of the poor earlier also and they play with them even today. Even then they used to divide people in the name of caste and even today they are committing the same sin. This statement of Modi came shortly after the release of caste census figures in Bihar. Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited two states on Monday, October 2. First he went to Chittorgarh in Rajasthan, then held a meeting in Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh. At both the places Modi targeted Congress. Said in Chittorgarh that CM Ashok Gehlot has already accepted defeat before the elections. Whereas in Gwalior it was said that this much development can happen in 9 years. Congress got 60 years, but it could not work. Congress does not have any roadmap. Modi said in Rajasthan – Gehlot ji knows that the countdown for the departure of his government has started. In Rajasthan, PM Chittorgarh inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of projects worth Rs 7 thousand crores. Modi said- Congress definitely formed the government by lying, but could not run it. While sitting, getting up, sleeping and waking up, Chief Minister Gehlot was busy in saving the Chief Minister’s chair and half of the Congress was busy in removing him from the chair, but the entire Congress remained united in the matter of looting. I am saying with a very sad heart that when it comes to crime, Rajasthan comes on top. Our Rajasthan is infamous when it comes to anarchy, riots, stone pelting. Our Rajasthan is ruined due to atrocities on women and atrocities on Dalits. Rajasthan is saying with great confidence and assurance – BJP will come and stop the riots. Narendra Modi also offered prayers at Sanwaliya Seth Temple in Chittorgarh. While addressing the rally in Rajasthan, PM Modi said- Chief Minister Gehlotji knows that the countdown for the departure of the government in Rajasthan has started. People sitting in Delhi may not believe it, but Gehlotji knows that the government is going. That is why they are requesting that their schemes should not be stopped after the formation of BJP government. Thank you Gehlotji because you accepted defeat. If you have accepted honestly, then Modi is many times more honest than you. I assure that the BJP government will try to make the public welfare schemes started by you even better. Read the full news… Gas pipeline inaugurated in Chittorgarh, Rajasthan PM Modi greeted the public in Chittorgarh. PM Modi inaugurated Mehsana-Bathinda-Gurdaspur gas pipeline in Chittorgarh. It has been built at a cost of Rs 4,500 crore. Apart from this, PM also inaugurated the LPG plant of Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) in Abu Road. 86 lakh cylinders will be supplied every year from this plant. This will help in reduction of about 0.5 million tonnes of carbon emissions in a year. Apart from this, the PM also inaugurated the four-lane road connecting Darah-Jhalawar, which has been built at a cost of Rs 1,480 crore. PM Modi started projects worth Rs 19 thousand crore in Madhya Pradesh The Prime Minister had said in MP on September 25 that Congress and its arrogant alliance want to destroy our heritage – Sanatan. MP will have to be very careful with such parties. After the rally in Rajasthan, PM Modi reached Madhya Pradesh. Here the foundation stone of development projects worth more than Rs 19 thousand crores was laid and inaugurated. Delhi-Baroda Express inaugurated. Also laid the foundation stone of five road projects. Griha Pravesh was also started in more than 2 lakh 20 thousand houses built under the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Awas Yojana. The Prime Minister laid the foundation stone of Jal Jeevan Mission in Gwalior and Shivpuri districts. More than 720 villages will benefit from these projects. 4 things about Modi’s speech in Gwalior 1. I see, you are tired of clapping for development works. The country’s policy and leadership have been shaped in Gwalior. The soil here has created Vijayraje Scindia, Kushabhau Thackeray and Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Whoever came out of here sacrificed himself for the country. Crores of Indians like us did not have the privilege of fighting for the country, but the responsibility of making India developed and prosperous rests on our shoulders. Just inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of development works worth Rs 19 thousand crores. I was watching as your hands got tired of clapping when the curtains of the development works were opened. 2. Will take MP to top 3 All these works are the common result of the double engine government of the double engine government. Double engine means double development of MP. In the last years, our government brought Madhya Pradesh from BIMARU to the top 10 states. Now our aim is to take MP to the top-3 states. Your one vote will take MP to top-3. Today India’s voice is ringing in the world. Today the world sees its future in India. Those who can’t see anything except a chair, they don’t even like the sound of India’s trumpet. This is PM’s 8th visit to Madhya Pradesh in 6 months. Earlier this month, MP had come on 26th and 14th September. 3. Congress is getting stomach ache due to our development works. Today India has become the fifth largest economic power in the world. These (Congress) people are saying that this did not happen. Very soon we will become the third economy of the world. Some people are having stomach ache due to all these things. These people were given 60 years. If this much work could be done in 9 years then how much could have been done in 60 years, but they could not do it. Those people have become deeply corrupt today. Earlier also he used to praise a family, he is doing the same even today. 4. Those whom no one has asked, Modi asks them and Modi worships them. Will the sisters give me a guarantee? After getting home, educate the children well, teach them some skill. Women empowerment is a mission for us. Earlier governments gave false promises. We have become Nari Shakti Vandan Act Shakti. In the earlier governments, deception was done in the name of women’s reservation. Had anyone heard the word Divyang before 2014? The previous governments had left them destitute. Our governments provided equipment and language. Those whom no one has asked, Modi asks about them, Modi worships them. Madhya Pradesh has become number 1 in cleanliness, this also the Congressmen do not like. Will you hand over power to him? Read this news also… BJP’s victory plan on Modi’s face, 8th visit to MP in 6 months Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming to Madhya Pradesh on 25th September for the 8th time in the last 6 months. BJP has not yet declared anyone as CM face in Madhya Pradesh. It is believed that BJP will enter the election field only with the face of PM Modi in front.

The Prophets to the Northern Kingdom: Workbook Workbook Download - $2.60 ($2.99 incl. GST) Note: GST will be added for NZ orders during checkout. Hosea, a contemporary of Isaiah (for most of his ministry) and Amos (in his earlier years) was the Jeremiah of the Northern Kingdom. His main target was the Northern Kingdom, yet his message was for the people of God. When Solomon died, Jeroboam rebelled and plunged the Northern Kingdom into a prosperous but idolatrous separation. After two centuries of abandoning their heritage, God sent Hosea to present His indictment and declare that He would use their enemies as His judgment. Amos was sent to Israel at a time when the nation feels militarily secure and prosperous, yet is turning to idolatry and abandoning their heritage. Misplaced confidence; false sense of security; abandonment of the greatness of their nation... (Sounds familiar, doesn't it?) In many ways a complement to Hosea, this perspective on the plight of Israel parallels the predicament of our country today.

Salmon with an Old Fashioned Egg Sauce (Oui Chef Season 2 Episode 2) Although the Acadians raised cattle, sheep and pigs they themselves did not consume a lot of meat, but they did consume fish, they would have had access to smelts, eel and mackerel, the fish would have been either braised, poached or boiled. The men also hunted game. I’m sure that salmon would have made its way ono their table but I’m not sure that egg sauce would have been served with it. Some of the first Acadians to NS came from France but I suspect this recipe did not come with them. My mother made this in the eighties, around that time it was also THE dish to order in restaurants as well. It’s both simple and elegant. - Preheat oven to 400 degrees Heat the oil in an oven safe pan . Place the salmon in the pan skin side down. Sear until the skin begins to crisp, turn and sauté for another minute or so. Flip the salmon so that the skin is once again on the bottom. Place into the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes. - Melt the butter in a medium sized pan. - Add the flour and cook for 2 -3 minutes stirring continuously. - Add the mustard, milk and cream and cook and cook until the sauce begins to thicken - Remove from the heat and fold in the eggs, season with salt and pepper. - Return to the heat and gently warm until the eggs are warmed through. - Serve over top of the salmon, garnish with green onions and a dish of egg sauce on the side. - Category:Entrees, Fish, recipes

Highly acclaimed peer-reviewed Bangladesh study shows that masks don't work at all But we had to download the original data from github to see that because they didn't mention it in the paper. The bottom line: mask are a complete joke with no science to back it up. Pure politics. The Bangladesh mask study written by scientists from Stanford and Yale is now published in Science!!! So now nobody in mainstream medicine can attack the study. The nice thing is the study showed that masks don’t work, but you’d never know it from reading the paper. You’d only know it if you saw the actual data. And they don’t show you the actual data. They only want you to see the data that supports the “masks work” narrative. They do NOT want you to see the data that doesn’t. When you actually look at the data, the study showed masks make NO difference. We asked the authors for the original data and we plotted the results for purple masks vs. placebo. Guess what? Yup. NO DIFFERENCE! They never even mentioned purple cloth masks made no difference whatsoever. It had ZERO effect. ZERO. Was this graph noted in the paper? Nope. It was NOWHERE TO BE FOUND IN THE PAPER! This isn’t science folks. This is politics driving the narrative and it couldn’t be any more clear than this paper. It is Exhibit A on how to fool other scientists and the public by hiding the data. Challenge your blue pill friends to explain the graph above Go ask you blue pill friends to explain how, if masks work, you could get the results above. There’s no way. They are welcome to download the data themselves at github if they don’t believe you. The authors clearly wanted to make it difficult for people to look at the underlying data. You have to download some expensive programs to look at the data. So that’s what we did to do our analysis. The only explanation I’ve heard from a blue piller is “See, this proves that people who choose purple cloth masks over red cloth masks are simply much more likely to be infected than the general public. So when they put on the purple masks, it reduced their rate of infection to normal. That is why there is no difference.” They have absolutely no data whatsoever to support that contention. It’s a hand waving argument that they pulled out of their <you know what>. Nobody has ever suggested anywhere that the color of mask you choose determines how likely you are to get COVID. If it did, the study is invalid because they failed to normalize for that. But the study was peer reviewed so it must be right (I don’t believe that, but most mainstream scientists do). That is how bad the blue pill effect is. No matter how bad the data looks for them, they’ll find a reason to ignore it. UC Berkeley Computer Science Professor Ben Recht exposed the fraud in November, 2021 For more on the nonsense behind this paper, pay attention to all of Ben Recht’s blog posts. He’s a UC Berkeley professor in EECS. My statisticians say he knows what he is talking about. Here’s the key excerpt from one of his blog posts: For all of Professor Recht’s posts (well worth reading) and our confirmation paper, see: Use common sense Common sense says if you can breathe easily through it, it isn’t filtering. Common filters used in homes and commercial businesses are rated in, for example MERV units. At about a fifteen MERV rating, a filter will remove all bacterial and even most, if not all, viruses. Most household motors cannot push air through filters with a high MERV rating. Especially when they start loading with debris, making the motors work even harder to push air through them. Though it would be possible, if you increased the surface area SIGNIFICANTLY. Otherwise, you'd burn up the motor. The recent flawed CDC study Here is what it concluded: See the flaw in this? Cloth and surgical masks both have zero effectiveness in the Bangladesh study. So if N95 masks are 2X better (since 34/17=2), then it’s still zero. Watch Vinay’s video for more on how bad this study was. Still not convinced? Watch this video of two Marines testing masks. For more info My articles on masks with detailed references: Experts on masks People like Stephen Petty and Tyson Gabriel are experts on masks. If you want to protect yourself from a virus using a mask, the minimum is a P-100 filter on a respirator. The ultimate is P-3 filters on a PAPR which costs from $800 (for all the gear at MiraSafety) to $1,300 for the respirators used in hospitals (like the Imperial College in London) when they operate on COVID patients. Note that nobody AFAIK has done a study showing that P-3 filters on a PAPR will prevent people from getting infected. This is most easily done with a challenge study using a “placebo” P-3 filter as the comparator. DHS needs to start arresting doctors, mainstream medical academics, and the mainstream media. All of them. The data makes it clear that virtually the entire mainstream medical community and mainstream media are spreading COVID misinformation and they need to be arrested by the DHS as domestic terrorists per their new guidelines. These people are deluding the public into believing masks work, endangering lives. DHS needs to be making these arrests NOW, before these people can do more damage. Where is DHS when you need them? Forward this article to your blue pill friends Challenge them to show that Professor Recht and our stats team are both wrong. After all, we don’t want to be spreading misinformation.

Currently running UIM 20.4 CU8 on primary hub after upgrading secondary hubs to version 9.39S and robots to 9.39S. Started seeing issues with performance on several robots, where the memory consumption started increasing. This happens on servers with MS SQL Server installed. A multitude of timeout issues and performance issues related to the SQL Servers were noticed and the controller probe was consuming up all available memory. Downgrading to version 9.38S resolved the issue. This occurs on different OS versions, and also different MS SQL Server versions. Engineering created a new robot hotfix to address this, robot_update_secure-9.40-20230825.111127-1. This fix is attached to this KB Article.

Spotify and Apple Music may soon find a new challenger in the music streaming service industry from an unlikely source: electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla. According to reports, Tesla has been speaking with the music industry on the possibility of creating its own music streaming service that will be bundled with its electric vehicles. Tesla To Enter Music Streaming Scene? Sources in the music industry claim that Tesla has spoken with all the major music labels on licensing a music streaming service. The service will be bundled with the company’s vehicles, such as the electric sedan Model S, the electric SUV Model X, and the upcoming mass-market electric sedan Model 3. The full scope of Tesla’s ambitions was not made clear, but sources believe that the company is looking to offer multiple tiers for the planned music streaming service. The tiers will start with a web radio service, such as the one offered by Pandora, which will be enabled by the internet connectivity already present in Tesla’s electric vehicles through their dashboards. The whole plan is seemingly not yet fully formed, but Tesla is already doing its due diligence by asking about acquiring the rights to stream albums and songs from the top artists from all over the world. Tesla CEO Elon Musk actually hinted that the company was exploring music products at the latest shareholder meeting of the company in June. He said that it was difficult to “find good playlists or good matching algorithms” for music that drivers want to hear while on the road, and that the company will be announcing how it will solve the problem within the year. Why Will Tesla Challenge Spotify And Apple Music? The big question is why Tesla is planning to go through the trouble of creating its own music streaming service, when it can instead integrate Spotify or Apple Music into its electric vehicles. Tesla already has a deal in place to include Spotify in electric vehicles sold outside the United States, so such a setup can be done if the company wants to. The labels will not turn down Tesla’s overtures if it pushes through with creating its own music streaming service, as it will be another source of revenue. From the comment of a Tesla spokesperson, it appears that the company is indeed serious about its plans. “We believe it’s important to have an exceptional in-car experience so our customers can listen to the music they want from whatever source they choose,” the spokesperson said, adding that Tesla’s goal is to “achieve maximum happiness” for its customers. While Tesla is considered as the market leader in the burgeoning electric car industry, it will be jumping into a music streaming space that is currently dominated by Spotify, with 50 million premium subscribers, followed by Apple Music, with 27 million paid users and looking to pose a bigger challenge to Spotify by launching a $99 annual subscription option. How Tesla’s music streaming service will stand up against these two remains to be seen, but it will have to offer something beyond the usual features if it wants to make a significant impression in the industry.

No one who attends this event from within the mainstream of the geobusiness could go away thinking that crowdsourcing cannot produce a detailed, accurate and richly attributed and themed map. The OSM community are getting their act together on coverage, quality and tag structures, the resemblance to the processes and standards of major map producers is very evident but is leveraged by the scale that a volunteer community of approaching 130,000 can bring (even if only 10-11% are currently active) Whilst OSM may have started as a reaction to the licensing of our national mapping agency, I think it is not OS who have the most to fear, after all we will need accurate large scale cadastral data which is not what OSM is focused upon or able to capture and maintain. What, however will happen to the producers of street level data products with their high costs of collection and maintenance? Willl they be able to differentiate themselves sufficiently? The solutions space where data traditionally has been 75-90% of the value of a project is going to be turned upside down. It is not just the cost of data licenses that is being stripped from the cost of a project it is also all of the wasted and frustrating effort associated in negotiating use terms and licenses with data vendors who seem to be incapable of making anything simple and I am not just referring to OS because the other data providers and their resellers make life almost as difficult. OSM already provides a viable street product if your requirements are for a high level of population coverage in the UK rather than geographic completeness. Within 12-18 months it will as good as complete in a number of European countries and the US. Now would be a good time for some of the established players in data production to wake up and smell the coffee. I presented on the subject “Is Volunteered Geograhic Information sustainable?” I am sure you can guess my conclusion. The presentation is here:

Locating Cornstarch in a Grocery Store If you've ever found yourself wandering the aisles of your local grocery store in search of cornstarch, you're not alone. This versatile kitchen staple can be a bit elusive, but fear not - we're here to help! Whether you're whipping up a batch of silky-smooth gravy or baking a batch of chewy cookies, cornstarch is a must-have ingredient. So, where exactly can you find it in the grocery store? Let's take a look at the most likely spots to score this essential item for your culinary adventures. Why is it that I can't find cornstarch? The current shortage of corn starch can be frustrating for many consumers. This scarcity is a result of both increased demand and a decrease in supply. The rise in popularity of plant-based products and the growth of the processed food industry have contributed to the high demand for corn starch, making it harder to find on store shelves. As the demand for corn starch continues to rise, the supply has decreased, leaving many consumers struggling to find this essential ingredient. The shortage is a result of multiple factors, including the increasing popularity of plant-based products and the growth of the processed food industry. These factors have created a challenging situation for those in search of corn starch, leading to its scarcity in stores. Is cornflour the same as cornstarch? Yes, cornflour and cornstarch are essentially the same product, just with different names depending on which side of the Atlantic you're on. This pure white starch, derived from corn kernels, is a versatile ingredient used in a variety of cooking and baking applications. So whether you call it cornflour or cornstarch, it's an essential pantry item for thickening sauces, soups, and desserts. Where does corn starch come from? Cornstarch is a versatile ingredient that is commonly used as a thickening agent in cooking and baking. It is derived from the endosperm of the corn kernel, which is the starchy part of the grain. This fine, odorless, and flavorless white powder is a staple in many kitchens and is known for its ability to thicken sauces, soups, and gravies. The process of obtaining cornstarch involves milling the corn kernels to separate the endosperm from the outer protective pericarp and germ. Once the endosperm is isolated, it is ground into a fine powder, resulting in the familiar cornstarch that is used in a variety of culinary applications. Its neutral taste and smooth texture make it an ideal ingredient for thickening and stabilizing a wide range of dishes. In addition to its culinary uses, cornstarch is also utilized in other industries, such as in the production of biodegradable plastics and as a dusting agent for medical gloves. Its wide range of applications and ease of use make cornstarch a valuable and essential ingredient in both the kitchen and beyond.

Last year I did a recap of my favourite travel destinations and memories from the previous year. So with the New Year upon us I wanted to write another post about my top 10 destinations from 2016. It was another great year of travel for me. Looking back over the past 12 months it was a busy year. I worked full-time as a VIP nurse in Saudi Arabia from January until September when I left to walk the Camino de Santiago with my Pops. I had a whopping 178 days of travel (mind you almost 3 months of this I was technically unemployed!) I visited 15 countries, 9 of them new for me. I saw a lot, I took a lot of pictures, and I lived it up. I hope this doesn’t sound bragadocious, because it’s not meant to (credit to Donald T for inventing this awesome word!) Some of that travel was with friends from Saudi, and I did some travel through Europe with my mom, and then spent about 7 weeks with my Dad while we walked across Northern Spain. Quite a bit of it was on my own- which I’ve become quite a fan. So here’s my top 10 from 2016 (in no particular order). Romania is hardly mentioned in the top 10 of most people’s bucket lists, and as per my usual form of travel I did very little research about the country prior to going. Usually when I do very little research about a trip (which is most of the time) I am always pleasantly surprised. Romania was exactly that. I spent a week based in Bucharest and did a couple day trips, one to Transylvania and the other into neighbouring Bulgaria. My favourite memories from that trip were visiting Peles Castle and later Bram Castle which is also known as Dracula’s Castle (although in reality it has very little to do with Dracula.) These castles couldn’t have been more different from one another. Peles Castle is from the late 1800s and built in a Gothic Bavarian style, whereas Bram Castle is an old fortress castle that sits atop a cliff. It dates from the 1400’s and has a very eerie feel to it, and even though it’s only a tale, I loved the stories of Dracula in relation to Romania History. The other standout thing from this trip was that we did a walking tour in Bucharest that took us to old decaying places which was super cool. Bucharest is also full of urban art and graffiti of which I’m a huge fan. It’s pretty inexpensive, had great restaurants, and was a very walkable city. So add Romania to your list of places to visit in 2017! I spent 11 lovely days in Italy solo, splitting my time between Rome and Florence. To say I loved it would be an understatement. I look back on my time in Italy and smile because I was brimming with happiness and confidence. The architecture, the food, the Chianti, the museums were fantastic. Between the two, Florence was my favourite, and I’m sure this was because I booked myself a cheapish hotel that had phenomenal views of the cathedral from my private balcony. It felt like I could just reach across and touch it, and I could hear the street artists below playing music which felt like I had my own private show. This trip was a turning point in solo travel for me, and I became very comfortable in my own skin. I no longer have any issues with eating alone, or going to a bar for a drink, or wandering a city. This trip was a huge confidence boost for me, and made me feel so brave and empowered. Two of my favourite memories of that trip involved random encounters with fellow travelers. I met an American girl around my age who she and her parents adopted me during my time in Rome and it was a real pleasure getting to know them! My other favourite memory was meeting a couple from Texas on a day tour of Tuscany. We met up for dinner in Florence and then for dinner and drinks my last night in Rome. By drinks I mean bottle after bottle of delicious Chianti. This resulted in a very hungover (possibly still drunk) me trying to get to the airport for my early morning flight! Oh the memories we make while traveling….. 3. The United Arab Emirates I visited Dubai a few times over the last year and one of the highlights for me (and a silly Bucket List item) was to stay at the Atlantis resort. So for one night on a huge splurge (and because if you are a Saudi resident you qualify for the GCC discount) I stayed here. As you can imagine it was very nice. There’s a ton to do, so no real need to leave the resort if you don’t want to. We had free admission to the water park which was pretty cool, but the outdoor pool area and the aquarium were highlights for me. Oh, and the food was really good as well. I also visited Abu Dhabi and as I recently blogged about got to visit the iconic Sheikh Zayed mosque which has long been a place I wanted to visit. If you’re in Dubai make the trip to Abu Dhabi to see the mosque- it’s a stunning example of Islamic architecture. 4. The Czech Republic There’s so much to see in the Czech Republic and this trip was especially special (is that a thing?) as I reunited with a guy I met several years earlier on my first solo trip to Portugal. It was so great to see him and have him take us around his city, and meet his partner, and check out hot Czech guys and eat good food. This was also the trip where my mom and I visited the town we believe is where my Oma (German for grandmother) grew up prior to her time in Germany where my mother was born. We flew into Germany and then spent a few days in Austria before visiting the Czech towns of Cesky Krumlov, Ceske Budejovice, Brno and Prague. We found that it was easier to travel around on the bus than the train (comfortable seats and wifi!) We ended the trip with a few days in Prague which is a fantastically walkable city of which I am always a fan. Also Czech is pretty inexpensive as far as Europe goes so you won’t break the bank while traveling there. One of the other solo trips I took this past year was to Poland. I only had time to visit Warsaw so obviously a return trip is in order as there are many other places I would like to visit. Warsaw, specifically the old town, is rife with history. It is also rife with graffiti and displays of urban art which brings me a great amount of joy! The city felt very open and green, it was easy to navigate, and I felt totally safe wandering around on my own. The best thing I did while there was take a couple walking tours to learn about Poland’s history in WW2. It was fascinating. In hindsight it might’ve been better had I learned some of this history prior to visiting but seeing as I’m not one for planning or researching much before I go (I’ve become super lazy in my travel style and really only care about where I’m staying) this didn’t happen. Maybe one of my New Years resolutions will be a actually properly research a place before I visit. Somehow I doubt I’ll actually get my shit together and follow through on this. Plus it’s so much more fun making decisions on the fly! This summer my short few day break to Jordan was just the relaxation I needed. The resorts that line the Dead Sea on the Jordan side are fancy with infinity pools and pool boys who will clean your sunglasses, and bring you towels and ice which make for a very happy me. While Petra itself is amazing, I’m so glad that we made the effort to visit the site at night. Especially since there was a full moon when we visited which provided for a lot of ambient light and beautiful pictures. It was also nice to get to revisit Bedouin culture as a trip to Petra at night includes traditional Bedouin music and tea. Even though it is pretty touristy I would recommend seeing Petra both by day and night. It’s stunning in the day but at night it has a magical mystical feel to it! I’ve spend a lot of time in Spain this past year. Early last year I spent a week split between Barcelona and Madrid with a night in Zaragoza to see the Arabic Palace called Aljaferia, because as we’ve already established I have a major crush on Islamic architecture. Then this fall I spent just over 5 weeks in Spain walking the Camino de Santiago with my Pops. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life and an experience that if I’m being honest, I haven’t fully debriefed from (hence my lack of blogging about it yet.) We walked around 700km from the French border to the northwestern Spanish city of Santiago de Compostela. It was the biggest physical accomplishment of my life, one that I’m quite certain I will walk again (or another route). Everyday the scenery we walked was stunning and it really slowed things down for me and made me think about what I want out of life, and about how much stuff we all have that we don’t need. And how stuff does not equal happiness, but being out in the world interacting with people from all different walks of life does make me extremely happy. So more about the Camino in the upcoming weeks. But in the event you are looking for a cheapish European vacation- Spain is very reasonable, especially once you leave the bigger cities. And the Euro is quite low right now and airfare is pretty cheap to Europe so it’s a good time to take advantage of it! 8. Paris France I spent a month in Paris this fall in a cute but run down apartment in the nieghbourhood of Montmartre. It was really nice to be able to settle into a place and feel like a local. Shopping at the same stores and frequenting the same cafes. My Pops was with me for a short while and then I was lucky enough to have a couple visitors. One of those visitors I suspect I will always associate Paris with. I spent my time exploring, but also doing some writing and reading and generally just hanging out. I caught up with a fellow travel nurse I knew from when I lived in San Francisco. I drank a lot of wine and cappucinos and ate my weight in cheese. (Not really but I do LOVE cheese a lot.) I walked much of the city. Coming to Paris directly after walking the Camino was a bit difficult because I very much missed walking (I still do.) But often I would google distances to whatever I wanted to do and if it was 5km away I’d think “oh that’s just a short walk” and opt to not take the metro. I was in Paris during the month of November which was pretty great because I get a little obsessive about Christmas. I love it so much- the decorations and the lights and colder weather. It was great to wander Paris with the store windows all decorated for the season. Paris is lovely. Tourism there is massively down given the recent terror attacks there and throughout Europe. But since I’m not one to live my life in fear I would say don’t let that deter you one bit! I spend a month there because with many places on AirBnb you get a discount if you book for a month and it ended up being cheaper than if I had booked for only 3 weeks. But a month was plenty long enough for me. 3 weeks would’ve been perfect because Paris is wicked break the bank expensive and I’m terrible with a budget so it was time to move on. 9. Amsterdam Netherlands After Paris I took the train to Amsterdam, a city I had long wanted to explore. And boy oh boy did I love it. Loved it as in it’s maybe my favourite European city ever (or at least tied with Copenhagen) at the very least! I spent a week here in a lovely apartment overlooking one of the main canals and had a grand time. Amsterdam is a very walkable city, and so much cheaper than Paris. A friend whom I met walking the Camino came and visited me for a night which was great. Two things really stood out during my time in Amsterdam. The first was doing a nighttime canal tour. It was the beginning of December when I was there and during the holiday season Amsterdam has numerous illuminated art installations around the city. We took a boat tour along the canals which offers a really cool view of the art itself, but also glimpses of life into the stunning historic canal houses. We sipped mulled wine and oohhhed and ahhhed over the interior decorations, wall colours, and the molded ceilings (but mostly I was just trying to imagine what my life would be like if I was living in any one of these houses!) The other thing I would highly recommend doing when in Amsterdam is taking a tour of the red light district. I mean Amsterdam is known for 2 main things (pot and ladies in windows with red lights overhead) so why not actually learn something about it. I’m not telling you to go to Amsterdam and smoke weed. If you do I have no issues but that’s your own choice. Neither am I telling you to pay for sex. Again, your choice. I’m not going to judge how you spend your money. For me I wanted to take a tour to learn how the red light district came to be, and basically how it works. So I did a tour thru the Prostitute Information Center which leads tours by women who have worked as sex workers in the red light district. It was really informative and I learned the following fun facts…..1/3 of Amsterdam’s prostitutes are over the age of 55. They literally come in all sizes, ages and ethnicity. Also the average time men spend with a lady is 6 minutes. Including getting dressed and undressed. 6. Minutes. But the minimum amount of time a customer must pay for is 15 minutes. Also the ladies are licensed and pay taxes so they basically have their own businesses. I learned a variety of other things as well, but since my Pops reads this I’ll try and keep it clean. Needless to say I left my heart in Amsterdam, and I really want to go back and see more of the Netherlands! Iceland is friggin fantastic. It is very, very photogenic and you can pack a lot into a relatively short visit. I spend 5 nights there in December and it did not disappoint. But while it is beautiful it is not cheap. So bring your money, honey cause you’re going to spend it. Once you get over the initial shock of the price of things I’m quite certain you will have a great time. I mean how can’t you with waterfalls, glaciers, tiny horses and Northern Lights aplenty. I met my best mate there and we spent 4 nights in Reykjavik and had one night on a tour to the southern part of the island with Extreme Iceland. It was fantastic, plus our guide was a riot and super entertaining. We visited waterfalls, and petted Icelandic horses who will come to you when you call them just like dogs do! We ended up getting stuck at a gas station while waiting out a wind storm and were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights in between sipping gas station beers. We walked on a beach covered in icebergs, walked on a black sand beach with a phallic rock formation in the windiest conditions I’ve ever been in. We wore crampons and went on an ice hike and posed straddling a crevasse and ate fermented shark (not at the same time.) As you can imagine fermented shark is not great. It’s one of those odd things that gets worse the longer you chew it, and the taste strengthens in your mouth long after you’ve already swallowed it. Thankfully, copious amounts of Icelandic beer does eventually get the taste out. Our final morning in Iceland we relaxed at the Blue Lagoon which as you can imagine is full of tourists, but pretty awesome. It is good to know that in the winter there is very, very little useful hours of daylight. In fact there was only about 3.5 hrs a day when we were there and I’m being generous with that time frame, as a lot of it was “light” how it is at dusk or dawn. I would love to go back in the summer to see it light until 11pm. I would also love to go back and rent a car and drive the island and have the flexibility to stop at absolutely every thermal pool I came across. I would also stop at every farm that had Icelandic horses and walk up to the fence and call the horses over like the pack of friendly horse/puppies that they are and pet them till my hearts content. Do you really need anymore reasons to go to Iceland? Didn’t think so…. So that wraps up my Top 10 from 2016. 2017 is off to a slow and patience trying start. I have decided that I want to return to Saudi Arabia for another year contract, but things are very, very slowly coming together. But fingers crossed they will fall into place in the next week or so. The first time I left Saudi I felt really excited to get an apartment and sign a lease and buy furniture. The current me has none of those deep gut feelings. To be honest I’m clueless as to what country I want to even settle down in, so returning to Saudi feels right and gives me a chance to save a little more money and see some more things. And you and I both know how much of a fan I am of seeing more things! There are still a couple places in Saudi Arabia I would like to explore. There is a group of islands off the coast of Jeddah called the Farasan Islands that are a protected marine sanctuary that are supposed to be beautiful and I would also love to explore the mountains of Saudi and visit either Abha or Taif. As far as out of Saudi travel I would like to fit in a weekend trip to Oman a place I’ve already seen, and make it over to Africa to visit Ethiopia, Namibia, the Seychelles, or Madagascar. I would also very much like to visit Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia and really any of the Stans. Obviously, I’ll have to pick and choose but these are my top interests. So inshallah in the next couple weeks I’ll have a firmer idea about my return, but in the mean time I’m going to relax and try and get some much overdue blogging about the Camino done. Wishing all my readers a very happy and healthy 2017. And obviously I wish you some kick-ass travel adventures also…….

The Sprengel Museum in Hannover represents one of the most important collections of modern art in Germany. While the existing building was an innovative design of the 1970s, a growing program and advancements in technology demanded that the new extension reflect the cutting edge of contemporary design. Using Kurt Schwitters’ concept ‘Merz’, which recognises no boundaries between different types of art, between the profound and the banal, or between art and life itself, the extension is conceptualised as a mediator between the existing museum and the new galleries. The internal organisation of spaces is structured in three parts: the Schwitters collection, an area for temporary exhibitions, and the permanent collection. To underline the monolithic character of the building a concept of perforated ceilings that fade gently into the walls was proposed. The central rhombus-shaped vertical foyer connects the ‘interior street’ and upper-level exhibition spaces of the old building with the new galleries. The event space on the top-level can be detached from the galleries and offers a roof-terrace with stunning vistas over the Maschsee Lake, and towards the existing museum and sculpture promenade. The iconic design of the Sprengel Museum extension employs the latest techniques of resource minimisation and is a showcase for energy efficiency and environmentally sustainable design.

Pterygium is fairly common and affects people who have been exposed to a lot of sunlight, either through spending a lot of time outdoors or living in hot climates. Additionally, frequent exposure to wind or dust is a common cause for this condition. One or both (bilateral pterygium) of the eyes may be affected. People with pterygium have a growth of pink, fleshy tissue on the white of the eye, which usually forms on the side of the eye closest to the nose. Pterygium usually continues to grow slowly throughout a person’s life, but it could also stop growing after a certain point and, in very rare cases, can continue to grow until it covers the pupil of the eye and interferes with vision. Although, pterygium is not usually a serious condition, it can cause irritating symptoms such as the feeling of a foreign body in the eye. Symptoms of pterygium may include: - Redness and inflammation, particularly if the pterygium is growing - Blurred or distorted vision, if the pterygium grows onto the cornea - Gritty feeling - Sensation of a foreign body in the eye Sometimes a pterygium does not cause any symptoms other than its appearance. Pterygium is diagnosed by examining the front part of your eye with a special microscope called a slit lamp. Although it is not always clear what has caused a pterygium to develop, significant risk factors include: - Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light - Irritants such as dust and wind - Dry eye Pterygium occurrence is much greater among people who live near the equator, but it also can develop in people who live in a sunny climate. It is most commonly seen in young adults aged 20-40 and is more common in men than in women. Pterygium can be preceded by a related non-cancerous condition called pinguecula, which is a yellowish patch or bump on the conjunctiva near the cornea. The conjunctiva is the thin, moist membrane on the surface of the eye. A pterygium doesn’t usually require any treatment unless it’s blocking your vision or causing severe discomfort. If the pterygium is causing a lot of irritation or redness, your doctor might prescribe lubricating eye drops (artificial tears) or eye ointments that contain corticosteroids to reduce any inflammation. If there is persistent discomfort or interference with vision, the pterygium can be surgically removed during an outpatient procedure, under either local or general anaesthesia. The type of anaesthesia depends on the anticipated length of surgery, the size of the pterygium, the surgeon’s advice and the patient’s own preference. Due to the inherent risk of any surgerical intervention, surgery is usually considered only if: - More conservative treatments have failed - The patient’s eyesight is at risk - It is a recurrence of a more aggressive pterygium The type of surgery most commonly used today involves a graft from the patient’s own eye tissue to fill the empty space created by the removal of the pterygium. In this procedure, the pterygium is removed and the conjunctiva or amniotic membrane is glued or stitched onto the affected area. Pterygium surgery typically takes about 45 minutes and patients are usually able to go home on the day of the operation, with a check-up offered for the following day. For the first week after surgery, the eye treatment usually involves using eye drops or ointment at least every two hours. This often consists of an antibiotic such as chloramphenicol (drops or ointment) four times daily and an eye lubricant at least four times daily, in between using the antibiotic. For the second week, as long as the eye surface is healing well, anti-inflammatory drops can be started and are usually continued, with the lubricants for at least two months, unless directed otherwise. The antibiotics are usually stopped two weeks after the operation. If you run out of drops, do not wait until your next appointment. Get a repeat prescription at once. The eye surface is vulnerable to infection until it is fully healed, so it is important to keep the eye clean and avoid contamination. Wash your hands before touching your eye, and do not touch the tips of dropper bottles or ointment tubes. Do not go swimming until you have been told it is safe to do so. It is also important to take extra care to avoid accidental injuries. Avoid rubbing your eyes, do not engage in contact sports for at least a month, and wear eye protection for any hazardous activities such as using hammers or grinding tools or operating machinery. Avoid driving for at least 48 hours after the operation. The main complication of pterygium surgery is recurrence after removal. The chance of a recurrence after a first operation is between 5% and 17%. Surgical complications may also include corneal scarring and perforation. In some cases, surgical removal of a pterygium can cause astigmatism. Patients need to be carefully followed up for a year because most recurrences occur during the first 12 months after surgery. You may help prevent pterygium by wearing sunglasses every day, even on cloudy days. Choose sunglasses that block 99%-100% of both ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation. Wraparound sunglasses provide the best protection against ultraviolet light, dust and wind. Experts also recommend wearing a hat with a brim to protect the eyes from ultraviolet light. To keep your eyes moist in dry conditions, apply artificial tears. Who is Pterygium surgery suitable for What is the recovery time?

The foundation of personal and professional success lies in understanding self, understanding others and realizing the impact of personal behavior on the people around you. DISC provides an insight into an individual’s style that can help predict the likely trends of their behavior in the future. It does this by evaluating four key factors in an individual style (Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Compliance). Through a 24-question assessment, DISC can be used to describe a person's general approach, including their motivations and dislikes, strengths and weaknesses, and some of the basic assumptions they make about other people. It can also go far in helping to predict how a person will react to a specific set of circumstances. Participants will learn to: - Discover behavioral strengths - Foster teamwork - Improve communication skills - Reduce conflict and stress Beth Flynn is facilitating this workshop.

Jim Yarsinsky asked: Copyright (c) 2008 Jim Yarsinsky An accounts receivable (A/R) crisis slowly creeps up at most hospitals, even though signs are evident that the revenue cycle is lagging and breakdowns in workflow and processes are numerous. But, it usually takes some singular event or development that proves, once and for all, that receivables are getting out of hand and immediate, quick help is needed to reduce A/R – and rejuvenate a flagging A/R process. Signs You Need Emergency A/R Help? There are many signs that point to the need for a concerted, focused effort to work down aging receivables. Perhaps the starkest sign of all is when 28 percent or more of your A/R has aged more than 90 days or greater (a benchmark set by the Hospital Accounts Receivable Analysis report on statistical data related to hospital receivables). Before you ever get to this point, however, look out for other warning signals that your A/R is creeping up to an unmanageable state: Your A/R accounts are timing out regularly. Third party insurance carriers set deadlines for filing claims and if you don’t submit in time, you won’t get paid. If you don’t submit in time, or properly, the amount of unclaimed reimbursement will creep up to a “breaking point.” Cash flow problems. You’ve just flipped the calendar and year-end is nearing and your cash flow is not where it should be – and your A/R days are 10-14 days higher than last year. This is the time you need to quickly, systematically lower your A/R and improve cash flow – not to mention improve your bond rating and show the hospital board that things are under control. Computer conversions gone awry. Switching to new software or even more involved computer conversions wreak havoc on accounts receivable. Traditionally, A/R days spike up 10 A/R days outstanding due to conversions and take awhile to come back down to pre-conversion levels. Other important, yet less blatant signs include: high staff turnover rate, growing number of denials, a breakdown in the patient registration process and simply, just an immense volume of unmanageable claims for the patient financial services staff. Arming the A/R Swat Team. Handling an A/R crisis should be swift, focused and handled by a pool of resources that are focused on accounts that are the source of the A/R crisis. In other words, tackling aging A/R should be a separate project and not added to the staff’s current workload. Here’s a step-by-step approach to quickly lowering your A/R: 1. Appoint the most seasoned patient financial services professionals to work on high dollar accounts. 2. Work aged accounts in descending dollar order. 3. Gather all untimely-filed accounts – determine which ones can be appealed and most importantly, determine those that have little chance of payment and write them off. 4. Re-bill as many claims, as quickly as possible. 5. Work with large groups of accounts simultaneously. For example, gather 50 accounts from the same payer, contact the payer and ask them about them all at once. Caution: don’t work one claim after another. 6. Leverage your provider representative to help you get paid. While some of these steps seem obvious, most patient financial service departments just don’t have the manpower resources to handle an A/R emergency. Focused A/R Team Pays Off. Some hospitals will decide to manage A/R emergencies themselves, but this is often difficult and unrealistic with existing workloads. Rather than outsourcing – and having to work with off-site staff on separate computers and systems – many hospitals opt to “in-source,” bringing in a dedicated, professional team of patient financial services experts and directors to work on-site and execute an A/R swat team approach. Stop Wheel Spinning. When A/R ages to the point of no return, hospitals need to recover cash quickly and work down aging receivables. Hiring an in-sourced “swat team” allows CFOs and directors to oversee an A/R operation that can quickly get into the system, resolve issues with laser focus and get out with more cash in hand and a rejuvenated and improved revenue cycle. Tips for Moving On. Once you’ve employed a “swat team” to handle out-of-control A/R, your department can work on more long-term issues to lower accounts receivable, such as: 1. Develop job aides and scripts for employees to help them resolve key accounts (promptly). 2. Institute daily work drivers, which are reports given to all of your follow-up staff, showing outstanding accounts and a time frame in which they should be resolved. 3. Always put your most skilled and experienced staff on the highest-dollar accounts. 4. Have management review performance on follow-up work in process. 5. Prioritize work. 6. Train employees (account follow-up staff should also know which accounts to focus on). 7. Establish work volume and quality goals. 8. Vigorously pursue the collection of all A-R in excess of 45 days.

A look back at 2022 … and ahead to 2023 2022 was a tumultuous year for investors, to say the least. Markets around the world were affected by high inflation, rising interest rates, and concerns about slowing economic growth in 2023. The S&P 500 dropped -19.4% in 2022, while the Nasdaq and MSCI EAFE fell -33.1% and -16.8%. The S&P/TSX fared slightly better, closing the year at -8.7%. It’s probably safe to say, most investors won’t be sad to see 2022 go. Here’s a closer look at some of the areas that made their mark in 2022 and will continue to shape the economy in the coming year. Inflation. Cost of living remained stubbornly high throughout the year. Prices in the U.S. peaked at 9.1% in June driven by higher wages, housing, fuel, and food prices compared to 12 months earlier. However, there are signs inflation is softening, and by the middle of 2023, it’s expected to be cut in half. While equities will experience some headwinds in 2023, softening inflation could be a boost to equity prices. Interest rates. The U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) began its aggressive rate tightening cycle in March in an aim to curb inflation along with many of the world’s major central banks including the Bank of Canada. The Fed indicated it intends to continue to hike rates further in 2023, but there’s a clear sense that they’re close to winding down the cycle. We should expect to stay at peak rates for some time in 2023 to ensure inflation trends towards its target of 2%, however it will take a recessionary environment to move to the next phase of Fed policy—cutting interest rates. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Russia’s aggression in Ukraine and its impact on energy and agricultural commodities have caused significant global economic disruption. Russia’s blockades of Ukrainian ports halted grain exports for months, contributing to widespread food scarcity. Much of Europe is scrambling to ensure energy security in the wake of Russia’s cut of gas supplies to the rest of the continent. In the short term, these issues will pose challenges for the European economy. China’s reopening. China’s zero-COVID policy put a damper on the Chinese economy and was a cause of supply chain disruptions over the past couple of years. Recent headlines indicated a relaxation of these policies in Mainland China. While this is encouraging, uncertainties remain for investors. In the coming months, vaccination and fatality rates, healthcare capacity, and government responses to a rise in cases will be signs to monitor. Recession concerns. The probability of a recession in 2023 continues to rise as we have yet to see the impacts of higher interest rates. Consumers are dipping into their savings to fund their consumption and are likely to face challenges with higher interest rates. However, a tight labour market and strong wage growth will help the consumer remain resilient. Markets are forward looking, and last year’s performance would have factored a shallow recession. Markets could drop further if we experience a severe global recession, but as of today, those odds remain low. What lies ahead? We’ve often compared investing to a road trip, and there may be some bumpy roads ahead. While perhaps not very reassuring, it’s helpful to remember that market corrections are normal, and that it’s best to remain focused on long-term goals and not let pit stops derail us from our destination. As always, if you have any questions about the markets or your investments, I'm here to talk.

Note from LeftEast editors. The article is a reprint, it originally appeared in Balkan Insight. This article documents the exhibition “The Passage” in Zagreb which closed on May 21, 2021. A new exhibition in a Zagreb gallery depicts some of the migrants and refugees who perished on their way to Western Europe on the often dangerous ‘Balkan route’. A collection of portraits of migrants and refugees who lost their lives on the so-called Balkan Route to Western Europe has opened in the Living Atelier DK gallery in Croatia’s capital Zagreb. The exhibition, entitled “The Passage”, commemorates people “whose lives were taken by the relentless European death regime”. According to the show’s organisers, the intention is to create “a passage from the normalization of border tragedies to communal learning, empowerment, and care”. The 36 memorial portraits were made in red and black thread on botanically dyed fabric and then merged into a large panel. It is the joint work of artists, researchers, translators, and members of the Women to Women collective, which brings together local women and refugees in Zagreb. Eight of the portrayed persons lost their lives in the river Mreznica near the Croatian town of Karlovac. Among them are Rachid and Abdallah from Morocco whose bodies were buried in the local cemetery in June 2020. Cases of drownings of migrants and refugees on the border between Croatia and Slovenia are also covered. Another memorial portrait depicts a six-year-old girl Afghan girl, Madina, who died in 2017 after being hit by a train “after she and her family were pushed back from Croatia to Serbia”. The exhibition also pays tribute to an unnamed 20-year-old Syrian who died in Slovenia in the winter of 2019 from hypothermia and exhaustion, and 28-year Ahmad from Afghanistan who died last year from a hornet sting near the Croatian town of Otok. There is also a portrait of 19-year-old Yasa from Egypt, who died in a container shipment transporting fertilizer from Serbia to Paraguay. His remains were found in October last year in Asunción, Paraguay, together with six other bodies. The group boarded a train in the Serbian town of Sid believing they had boarded a train to Italy. NGOs assisting migrants and refugees have been accusing police in the EU external border state of Croatia of the systematic use of violence to push migrants and refugees back to non-EU states Bosnia and Serbia. Croatia has denied allegations of violence and police misconduct. Meanwhile, migrants and refugees constantly find new ways to cross state borders into the EU – across dangerous rivers, mountains, forests and even minefields. For the unluckiest migrants and refugees, however, the journey can end with death. Anja Vladisavljevic joined Balkan Insight’s team in May 2018 and she is a journalist and correspondent at for the website. Based in Zagreb, Anja is responsible for daily news stories from Croatia as well as analysis, interviews and other stories on a variety of topics ranging from politics, economy, environment, culture, lifestyle, etc. Previously, she worked as an editor for the Croatian edition of the French monthly newspaper, Le Monde Diplomatique for two years. She also worked as a journalist, editor and translator for the regional website Bilten.org from 2017 to 2018. She graduated from the Department of History at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at Zagreb University. She speaks Croatian, English and Polish.

By Eric Burkholder, Portfolio Manager A 2011 review of market outcomes and the “experts” who failed to predict them. “Prediction is very difficult, especially if it’s about the future.” – Niels Bohr, Danish physicist Entering 2011, many investors had great hope in the world economic recovery. Equity markets had just tallied two straight years of strong performance, central banks remained committed to low rates, and major developed countries were working to resolve debt issues. As would be expected, pundits were out in full force predicting another great year for stock investors. A survey conducted by CNNMoney of 32 “experts” found the average prediction for the 2011 S&P 500 return was 11%. In fact, not one of the experts thought the S&P 500 would decline. How accurate were they? The S&P 500 ended exactly flat in price at yearend and eked out a 2.11% return with reinvested dividends. Even with such optimism in the air, the market Bears were not to be outdone for 2011 predictions. Perhaps most notably was Meredith Whitney’s call of the Muni Bond collapse. For 2011 she predicted “hundreds of billions” of municipal bond defaults. The prediction actually induced a short term sell off in the muni bond market, but ultimately she was shown to be spectacularly wrong and municipal bonds finished off the year as one of the best performing asset classes with a return of 11.2%. By mid-year, however, optimism faded as troubling events around the world dominated headlines. The devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan, political unrest in the Middle East, rising oil prices, a US credit downgrade, the threat of another global recession, and an escalating debt crisis in Europe weighed heavily on markets. As stock market volatility returned to global financial crisis levels, investors faced a major test to their discipline and staying power. The sanguine predictions from January 2011 were soon long forgotten and the Bulls pulled in their horns. However; the doomsday economists were happy to fill the void. The ECRI (Economic Cycle Research Institute) touts their record of calling market turns and will give you access to their data, for a small fee of course. In September this year they issued a report which stated: “Early last week, ECRI notified clients that the U.S. economy is indeed tipping into a new recession. And there’s nothing that policy makers can do to head it off.” It appears for the time being they missed the boat on the US economy, which showed surprising strength in the fourth quarter despite the Euro Zone crisis. And finally, there was Gold. The world exploded with talk of the yellow metal this year following its historic rise which began in late 2007. The “End of America” was imminent and only gold would save us. Numbers such as $2,000, $3,000, and even $5,000 per ounce were being thrown in the whirl wind of projections and no estimate felt too high. JP Morgan’s pick: $2,500/oz by the end of the year. With all the hype many of us began to ask: “If Gold is going to be so valuable, why are they trying to sell it to me so badly?” The question was partially answered when the Alluring Aurum ended December at $1,531/oz, or 23% off its 2011 high. Gold has had a spectacular rise, but the 1980’s taught us the fall can be just as impressive. These illustrations are not meant to prove the economy is guaranteed to blossom in 2012 or that there will be continued wilting. What you can take away as you review the market events from 2011 and look towards 2012 is that two things did happen exactly as expected. First, history has shown that “expert” predictions are almost never accurate, 2011 was no exception. Secondly, markets last year were consistently capricious affirming that a globally diversified asset allocation portfolio is still the best way to build long term wealth. Stock outlook for 2011: Recovery rally will continue – CNNMoney

Initially, capitalists of the freight sector tried to use the strike to bargain in the name of their interests in the inter-capitalist competition against the oil companies and the government. There was doubt whether it was lockout or strike. But then the strike went out of control. When the capitalists of the freight sector made an agreement with the government to end it, the workers continued it and the strike increased even more. The initial reason for the strike was the increases caused by the price policy of diesel oil, which became directly linked to the speculative volatility of the oil in the international market (that is, the price variation seemed to be a bitcoin) and also the exchange rate of the Dollar against the Real. The truck drivers (46% self-employed and 53% employed) have been brutally affected, because the oil supply to the trucks is paid out of their pocket. The strike is gigantic, it affects the whole country, literally. It's stopping the whole economy. But at the outset, carrier businessmen participated or even led the strike because they also have interests in inter-capitalist competition with oil companies and with government. So there was a lot of doubt whether it was a lockout or a strike, also because strangely the bourgeois media and the police even seemed to support it, unlike any other type of strike, which is always presented on television as vandalism or even crime. The strike was then manipulated as an object of bargaining to serve the interests of businessmen (eg. employers' claims regarding paying less labor rights, como a "reoneração da folha de pagamento"). Until May 24, when the employers unions (or the workers' unions sold off) made an agreement with the government to end the strike, winning some demands (such as price readjustment per month and no more at any moment, and a reduction of oil 10%). But with the agreement, the businessmen could not stop the strike, because the workers decided to continue it (it seems the strike increased even more). Although there are still some businessmen who continue to participate, now it has become predominantly a struggle against bosses, class struggle. For example, the claims are about the very low price of freight paid to workers by carriers, by employers. And then the bourgeois media now presents the strike as vandalism and crime, and the government is mobilizing the armed forces against the strike, etc. Of course we support any autonomous struggle of the workers for improving their conditions. What we can contribute is a perspective on the likely effects on society, evaluating them with the criterion of whether or not it affirms solidarity among all workers, oppressed, proletarians against the ruling class, not only in the country but in the world. In this evaluation the strikes in the service and transport sector strongly affect other proletarians who use these services, and not only the bosses and the government, who often do not suffer at all because they practice "investment diversification" (for example, often the capitalists are shareholders of several companies from various sectors, even from several countries, etc.). Thus, in the case of this strike of truck drivers, the proletariat everywhere suffers from the lack of food, and is left with many fundamental needs not met, due to the increase in prices, which rise to the heights in these situations. In order to get out of this impasse that ultimately leads to a conflict between workers, the logical solution is to replace the strike with free production, which affirms the satisfaction of human needs against capital, money and the State, impelling solidarity of class everywhere. This has the potential of generalizing to the world to the point of creating a new mode of production in which the productive forces are subjected to human desires, needs and capacities, and no longer to profit or class domination. For more details on this proposal, see the text strike and free production. humanaesfera, May 26, 2018 Update of May 28: THE ATTRACTION OF TRUCK DRIVERS FOR BONAPARTISM The claim for "military intervention" 1 that apparently occurs very often in this truckers' strike is disturbing. But it is important to note that this request seems to have become prevalent when the federal government called the armed forces against the strike. So, in this particular circumstance, it seems to have the rather pragmatic sense of fraternization between soldiers and truckers. But nothing is clear about that. The category of the truck drivers is ambiguous, because, especially among the self-employed, who own their trucks (or even more trucks, exploiting other workers), the petty-bourgeois aspect entails a vacillation between bourgeois and proletarian positions, even if precarious labor prevails among them. This means that this category, while their struggle is isolated, is incapable of asserting an autonomous social project, which generally translates into the appeal to some external, extraterrestrial power, some kind of Bonapartism or Caudillism that would bring "order" by force. Hence the attraction for the rhetoric of the far-right, nostalgic of the military dictatorship. The same petty-bourgeois aspect occurs in taxi drivers, and, to a lesser degree, Uber workers ... This will remain so long as the struggle does not spread. If all the rest of the proletariat begins to struggle in a generalized manner - and the very impact of the shortage and the worsening of the conditions of life that it entails can impel to it -, the bourgeoisie and the bureaucracy (including military) will clearly reveal themselves as enemies. In this, the fraternization of the class against the ruling class will render nonsense the corporatist or petty-bourgeois defense of prefabricated identities in capitalist society. In this situation, it is very probable that there will be a general inflection to affirm the fraternization by the autonomous fight: to constitute, for example, "soviets of soldiers, truck drivers and workers," in which no power is conceded unconditionally to anyone, and where the mandates are revocable at any time by the assemblies. But while the proletariat as a whole watches only passively what is happening, the truckers' strike is doomed to serve the factions of the ruling class competing for exploit the proletariat. humanaesfera, May 28, 2018 - 1Which refers to the desire to reinstall a military dictatorship like the one that settled in 1964 in Brazil.

Tripoli, 14 April: It is reported that the Tunisian justice ministry agreed today, Saturday, to transfer the trial of two Libyans accused . . .[restrict]of murdering two Tunisian officers last year from a military court to a civil one. The two who were arrested on 15 May last year following a shootout between Tunisian troops and an armed group in the Tunisian town of Rouhia, 150 kilometres south west of Tunis. In the shootout, two senior officers were killed as were nine of the attackers. Two other officers severely wounded. Most of the attackers, however, managed to escape. The Tunisian authorities have claimed the militants were members of Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). The two Libyans arrested were accused of being members of an AQIM cell in town of Tatouine that was linked to the attack. It was reported at the time that they were arrested that they were in possession of an explosives belt and bombs . The military prosecutor was demanding the death sentence for the two men. The Libyan NGO campaigning for Libyan prisoners abroad had appealed to both Tunisia’s president and its justice ministry on behalf of the two saying that they were not members of AQIM. According to the NGO’s spokesman, Taha Shakshuki, the group were informed today that the men would be transferred to a civil court.

I’ve been thinking recently of the significance of small things. Well, small steps to be precise – and how under rated they are. When thinking of life changes the focus tends to be on ‘big changes’ or ‘giant steps’ (apparently what you take whilst ‘walking on the moon’). However, the idea of making a huge change or taking that giant leap can be daunting for most people. Maybe it might be better to think in terms of small steps in the vein of ‘eating the elephant one mouthful at a time’. Certainly in business when faced with an enormous project breaking the whole thing down to manageable tasks helps greatly – and, in fact, that’s how all work really is accomplished, whether we realise it or not. So likewise in life when you want to make a big change take that first little step – make that phone call, find out where that course is taking place, write that email, book that appointment. Then take the next small step and then the next. All teeny, weeny steps but they get the ball rolling – you just need to be sure it is rolling in the right direction. A few small steps taken upon ‘the road less travelled’ can quickly set you en route to a very different place from where you currently are, and with a bit of forethought and persistence, that place will be exactly where you want to be. How great! Small steps can lead to BIG changes.

It is always tempting to consult Google or social media for the latest and greatest in natural medicine, but a reminder that natural does not always mean safe. Natural medicine, and in particular, the use of herbs and vitamins, is not without contraindications and potential drug interactions. It is therefore important that you consult with your healthcare professional before taking any natural health product to determine if it is right for you. Naturopathic Doctors are trained, licensed and regulated to practice natural medicine in B.C. Our focus is to ensure public safety in the use of natural therapies. If you have questions about your health or any supplement that you are taking, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.

I'm off to Europe! Yep, I’m off on a vacation (and a little work) with my wife to Europe this week. First we’ll fly into Brussels, Belgium and then on to Amsterdam. I’ll be teaching a few sessions at Adobe’s own event – Adobe Live. The first leg of the 1-day conference is in Belgium and then I’ll be teaching two days in Amsterdam. The rest of the time I get to play! I’m so psyched as I’ve never been to either location so wish me luck. That said, I’ll be trying to keep up with posts over the next week or so but if I don’t, you can guarantee it’s because I’m doing one of the following: a) teaching at an Adobe event b) out shooting or sightseeing c) eating Belgian chocolate d) or drinking some fine Belgian beer. Tot ziens! (by the way, that’s good-bye in Dutch – I think 🙂 ).

Creating connections through Our latest innovation is here! Introducing Cascadia – a networked audio solution that provides teachers with all the benefits of instructional audio and incorporates key safety and communication features such as mobile, silent alert buttons and teacher-initiated two-way calling. Watch the video to learn more. Instructional audio creates better access to learning When students hear every word, valuable teaching time is more productive and effective for all. Increase on Stanford Achievement Test Reduction in ELL word recognition Fewer teacher redirections Decrease in teacher absenteeism How our solutions help Engage the whole class in learning A small microphone worn by the teacher improves intelligibility and distribution of sound and optimizes the entire classroom’s ability to hear and comprehend lessons. Build an environment for sharing When a student’s voice is heard by peers and teachers, they gain the skills and self-confidence to confront and master future challenges and responsibilities. Expand and simplify communication Integrations with building communication systems keep teachers connected directly from their microphone across the school campus. Four ways to bring clarity and versatility to every classroom Lightspeed instructional audio systems create access to improved listening and learning between teachers and students. Watch these short videos for a helpful overview of how our instructional audio solutions foster learning environments that are equitable, engaging and collaborative. Don’t let these common barriers get in the way of learning Intelligibility suffers with noise. Background noises often obscure the soft consonant sounds, leaving “gaps” in speech and understanding. Teachers’ voices are stressed. Teacher’s spend up to 80% of the day talking and 18% miss work each year due to voice issues. Speech gets quieter over distance. Students farthest from the teacher only receive half the audio strength, leading to unequal access to learning. Mild hearing loss is quite common. Even temporary hearing loss due to ear infections and colds can lead to future deficiencies in subjects. “Every one of them clearly feels like I’m with them when I’m talking through [my] mic. Collectively, it’s bringing us together in a way I never imagined.”Kristin Ortiz, Second Grade Teacher, Dora L. Small Elementary School “From a technology angle, this has been one of the biggest game-changers for the district. We’ve reached every student, teacher, and classroom in Livermore and made a difference in their lives.”Geoff Warner, Chief Technology Officer at Livermore Schools “We realized it was a great inequity. Some students were getting a better education simply because they could hear their teacher more clearly.”Rebecca Cooksey, Assistant Superintendent of Innovation and Technology Services, Lancaster School District Learn more about us by subscribing to our email list Enhanced learning for the entire classroom Lightspeed instructional audio systems provide clear and even distribution of voice and multimedia throughout the classroom.

Your car’s windshield is an essential component that not only protects you from debris on the road but also provides structural support to the vehicle. Unfortunately, it is susceptible to damage from chips, cracks, and other forms of wear and tear. If you find yourself in need of windshield repair in Tampa, it’s essential to address the issue promptly and properly. In this article, we will guide you through the process of handling windshield repair efficiently and effectively. Identifying the Need for Repair The first step in addressing windshield damage is to determine whether repair or replacement is necessary. Small chips or cracks that are smaller than a dollar bill can often be repaired without having to replace the entire windshield. However, if the damage is larger or compromises the structural integrity of the glass, a replacement may be required. Choosing a Professional Repair Service When it comes to windshield repair in Tampa, it’s crucial to choose a reputable and experienced professional. Look for a service provider that specializes in windshield repairs and has a track record of satisfied customers. Reading online reviews and asking for recommendations from friends and family can also help you find a reliable repair service. Assessing Insurance Coverage Before proceeding with windshield repair, it’s important to review your insurance policy to determine if the repair or replacement is covered. Many insurance companies cover windshield repairs and replacements, often with no out-of-pocket expense to you. Contact your insurance provider to understand the details of your coverage and any potential deductibles that may apply. The Repair Process Once you have chosen a qualified repair service and assessed your insurance coverage, you can proceed with the repair process. The repair technician will typically start by cleaning the damaged area and removing any loose glass fragments. They will then apply a special resin to the chip or crack, which is then cured using ultraviolet light. This resin helps to restore the integrity of the glass and prevent further damage. After the resin has cured, the technician will polish the area to ensure a smooth and seamless finish. The repaired windshield will be as good as new, with the damage virtually invisible. It is important to note that the success of the repair may depend on the size and location of the damage. In some cases, a repair may not be possible, and a replacement may be necessary. Preventing Future Damage To minimize the risk of windshield damage in the future, there are several preventive measures you can take. Avoid following too closely behind other vehicles, especially large trucks that can kick up debris. Additionally, park your car in a covered area or shade whenever possible to protect it from extreme temperature changes, which can cause the glass to expand and contract. Regular maintenance is also crucial. Keep your windshield clean and inspect it for any signs of damage regularly. Taking action at the first sign of damage can prevent further deterioration and potentially save you from having to replace the entire windshield. In conclusion, when faced with windshield damage in Tampa, it’s important to act swiftly and responsibly. Choose a professional repair service, assess your insurance coverage, and proceed with the repair or replacement process as necessary. By taking these steps and implementing preventive measures, you can ensure the longevity and safety of your vehicle’s windshield.

Digital fashion, NFT Bags, and Metaverse Fashion Shows: Understanding the Intangible Trend Virtual fashion might seem to be a thing of the distant future, but with video game skins, digital fashion NFT tech, and new authenticity technologies, the future is ready to wear. The metaverse could be a lot of things, a digital universe, a livable internet, a buzzword. Mostly, it is an idea. There is not one singular metaverse but instead many tech companies investing in their version of this virtual wonderland. Whether its digital fashion NFT tech or metaverse fashion shows, big brands are starting to invest. The metaverse goes hand in hand with web 3.0, which no, is not the next Chrome update, but the next era of the internet based on blockchain technology, designed to move the power of the web into the hands of its users as opposed to its creators. Depending on your perspective of what fashion is, you may be completely baffled as to why the industry has so quickly jumped onto the new tech bandwagon, and that’s understandable. Clothing is inherently physical, or is it? In 2018, Scandinavian brand Carlings dropped the world’s first collection of digital fashion. NFTs of clothes have taken the luxury world by storm, with heavyweights such as Gucci and Karl Largerfeld selling out of their digital products instantly. However, NFTs are not the first instance of digital fashion, it’s been a large part of video game culture for over a decade now. Estimated to be a $40b industry, video game skins were first monetised in 2012 with Team Fortress 2 and Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Now, skins and customisable characters are an essential part of the gaming experience whether you’re creating an Animal Crossing look-a-like or changing the deck backs in Solitaire. Skins have also received the luxury fashion treatment. Gucci collaborated with Pokemon Go in 2021 to create a collection of in-game branded items and turn a number of their stores into sponsored and interactable PokeStops. As we see various iterations of the metaverse develop into both virtual and playable worlds, it’s almost guaranteed that fashion in the metaverse is going to be worth keeping a watchful eye on. It is Mine… The importance of ownership and authenticity in fashion can’t be understated. Why buy a brown bag when you can invest in a Hermes Birkin in etoupe? Even if you find an accurate Birkin replica, it’s not the same as the real thing. The same goes for NFT art. Yes, you can screenshot someone’s NFT, but that doesn’t mean you own it, no matter how identical the image is. The blockchain tells a story of authenticity the same way as authenticity cards and labels do, recording ownership in an irrefutable way. Who’s to say that the blockchain won’t become a way of verifying your fashion purchase in the future? ..and I am It Even though we see consistent collection releases and fashion shows throughout the year, a luxury brand is more likely to lose money than make anywhere near an enormous profit. Hundreds of hours of hand sewing, embroidery, and the finest materials on the planet don’t come cheap. The real income comes from accessories. Sunglasses, makeup, bags, and perfumes lay the foundations of a brand’s revenue because they are accessible. Outside of certain bags, these products never sell out, start at more affordable prices, and are always branded appropriately. What we see at fashion shows and on the bodies of models and celebrities are gatekept behind eye-watering prices, scarcity, and size exclusivity, if even sold in-store at all. For the average consumer, we are never meant to wear these clothes, only aspire to them, and because we can’t wear them, we buy into the lifestyle through accessories. You might not be able to get a power suit from Chanel, but you can probably afford a lipstick to go with your Zara set and feel like a Chanel girl. It’s no surprise that how we look online matters as our digital lives become more and more intertwined with our physical lives. Affordable virtual outfits could become people’s way of accessing that aspirational, luxury lifestyle. Some still see our digital lives as not real, but when we work, socialise and entertain online, as much as we do in person, if not more, it’s unjustified to devalue our online experiences to such a degree. And when we value them equally, it suddenly makes complete sense to invest in your online appearance as much as you would your physical self. If you aren’t well versed in fashion’s circular nature and trickle-down economics, you don’t need a degree when The Devil Wears Prada’s cerulean monologue exists. Just as luxury brands started the cerulean trend, now that they’ve dove into the metaverse and NFTs, we can expect this new tech to go through mid-level luxury, affordable, and then fast fashion. It’s not just ownership that has the potential to be democratised, fashion in the metaverse creates the opportunity for everyone to have that coveted front-row seat to a fashion show. Recently, Decentralands Metaverse Fashion Week played host to 108,000 unique guests across the entire event. It’s easy to think of Digital fashion NFT tech and Metaverse Fashion Shows as playthings for the rich that have little to do with the majority of us. However, the bigger picture indicates that most of us are likely to have already invested in digital fashion in video games. As blockchain technology and NFTs keep developing and new applications are being found in the fashion industry, we’re probably going to invest again.
