Republican Debaters, Waterboarding and Foreign Policy
Viewing the South Carolina Republican debate on November 12, 2011, made me proud to identify with Republicans. The debaters, who included Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry, Herman Cain, Michelle Bachmann, Rick Santorum, Jon Huntsman and last, but not least, the eccentric, and somewhat out of place, Ron Paul, were civil and respectful toward one another. The debate focused mainly on foreign policy, including topics pertaining to terrorists, security and torture. The issue of whether waterboarding is or is not a form of torture was discussed.
A close relative, who is not by an means a conservative, told me he watched the South Carolina Republican debate last night, and that he thought it was a good debate. This speaks volumes in favor of the Republican nominees, who displayed perfect manners, even in the midst of situations less than perfect. For example, at the beginning of the debate, Scott Pelley mistakenly informed Mitt Romney that his 60 seconds had expired and that he could not finish his statement. Former Massachusetts governor and 2008 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney fought back in polite verbal terms when he asserted that he still had 30 remaining seconds. As it turned out, Mitt Romney actually did have 30 remaining seconds and was then allowed to finish his statement.
The debate was interesting and lively, and there were no dull moments of which to mention. A discussion about whether or not waterboarding constitutes terrorism offered interesting viewpoints from the various Republican debaters during the November 12 Republican debate held in South Carolina. Anyone, whether a Republican, Libertarian, Independent or Democrat, could not help noticing that these honorable contenders for the 2012 Presidential Election demonstrated that the security of America is best protected by conservative leaders.

Think About the Value of Time For a Wise Solution
Clocks continue to tick away the seconds, minutes and hours as constant reminders that time never stops. When individuals think about their lives, they need to consider the significance of time. Every person who lives has tremendous value. The opportunity to view time as an enemy or a friend presents itself to every man, woman, boy and girl. The latter option, choosing time as a friend, often influences persons to reach certain measures of success in their lives.
Value the importance of time by refraining from the frivolous waste of precious moments in life. Prayer and deep introspection frequently yield new insights into problems that seem impossible to solve. Every bad situation has a good solution, and those who take the time to seek wise solutions benefit from spending their time wisely. Whether the problem revolves around an economic crisis, including a stock or mutual fund investment, a job or a new location, the careful consideration of all options serves to help an individual make a better decision.

Every year, approximately 2.1 million women worldwide are diagnosed with breast cancer, increasing by five percent per year. NeoDynamics has developed the NeoNavia® biopsy system which facilitates and improves tissue sampling (biopsies) in breast cancer patients, with a new patented micropulse technology. This method gives better precision and better control. In close collaboration with leading clinicians, we have gained experience of having used the technology in more than 300 procedures at around 15 university hospitals across Europe. NeoDynamics is currently completing development of the commercial version of NeoNavia. Among several design and usability features it integrates micropulse technology with multiple needle options for maximum versatility. NeoNavia is expected to be launched towards the end of 2019 in a breast biopsy market worth approximately USD 500 million per year. The technology is likewise suited for cancer diagnostics in other organs such as prostate, lung, kidney and liver.

This Mother's Day I am taking time to reflect on what's important in my life. My mom heard about a movie called "I Am," and she invited me to see it last weekend. It was put together by a Hollywood producer (whose productions include Ace Venture and Bruce Almighty) who had a profound epiphany he's determined to share with others.
This film sets out to answer two basic questions: what's wrong with our world and what can we do about it? The producer interviews several of today's great minds to try and find the answers.
I have been on overdrive in my spiritual quest since my girlfriends and I began The (February) Prayer Project (click here for the blog). The ideas introduced in this movie were not news to me; however, I feel they are so important, I wanted to share this with our readers.
This movie provided a lot of science-based (although skeptics will still try and debunk "quantum" physics) explanations for things Eastern philosophers and religious leaders have been saying for centuries.
One of the main lessons from the movie is connectedness. We are all connected to one another. There is no denying it. As a result of the connectedness, what people say and do matters. Every single interaction a person has has power: the power to promote love or fuel hate.

I haven't shown you guys my poster yet. I can't believe it! I am in LOVE with this thing! I'm trying to figure out a place to hang it in my office. This is what the boys met me at the airport with. I was so overwhelmed with happiness to see them and the poster was just icing on the already amazing cake!
Ok, next is just a super simple card I made. Isn't that CRAZY? I actually made a card. It's like I have some sort of craft blog or something. ;) This card was so fast but I LOVE it! It's just some MME Be*Loved paper, some sheer organza ribbon from Michael's, and an Ippity stamp from the Straight From the Heart set. (This set is perfect for Valentine's Day and is available for purchase in my right sidebar >>>>) This is my take on the inspiration challenge on Melissa Phillips blog, you can see her challenge HERE.

People with vinyl collection are still out there and longing for something like this. People still buy new vinyl records and not digital music as the rest of us. Playing vinyl records shows class and the taste of person in music, Yeah you can simply hook your phone and listen to the same music and all but there is difference in gulping and savoring.
Pyle PVTTBT8 When closed up, it looks just like a retro suitcase, the kind salesmen from the 80s (or even earlier) will carry around as they go door to door, selling their wares. Unbuckle the clamps, however, and it reveals a full-fledged turntable, complete with a pair of speakers that unfold from the sides, allowing you to enjoy your new Arctic Monkeys record while playing chess with some old Asian dude in the park.
The Pyle PVTTBT8 can play both 33 and 45 RPM records using its onboard rechargeable battery, so you can spin your music anywhere without having to plug in to a power outlet. Unlike most suitcases, the body is made from wood with ceramic for the stereo cartridge, so the rig should easily withstand the bumps and grinds of being lugged around from one hipster joint to the next. If you want a bigger sound at home, it comes with an RCA output for hooking up to your sound system, along with an AC power adaptor to spend the whole night relishing the warm, cackly sounds of vinyl. It measures 17.3 x 10.8 x 4.3 inches (w x h x d) and weighs 10.3 pounds.
Available now, the Pyle PVTTVBT8 retails for $109.99.

DETROIT, Dec. 2, 2015 – In a move designed to strengthen and expand the mission of nonprofit hospice providers in Michigan, Arbor Hospice & Palliative Care and Hospice of Michigan today announced they will form an affiliation effective Jan. 1, 2016.
Collectively, the affiliated organization will unite in caring for more than 2,200 patients on a daily basis across 58 Michigan counties, making it the largest provider of hospice and palliative care services in the state. Both organizations share common missions, visions and values and will be able to better serve patients and their families without regard to age, diagnosis or ability to pay.
The affiliation was announced to employees earlier today. Both organizations will continue to offer all their current programs and services and anticipate the new affiliation will enable them to commit more resources at the patient bedside.
The unified organization will be led by Robert Cahill, who has more than two decades of healthcare experience and has served as president and CEO of HOM since 2014. Gloria D. Brooks will serve as president of Arbor and the Arbor Hospice Foundation and vice president and chief strategy officer for HOM. The organizational management structure will be finalized in early January 2016.
Under the affiliation agreement, Arbor and HOM will continue as independent 501(c)(3)s and operate under their respective names. Arbor will continue to serve patients throughout Washtenaw County and its current service area out of its Ann Arbor office, as HOM continues to serve patients throughout Michigan.
The Arbor Hospice Foundation will be established as an independent foundation supporting Arbor's programs and services. The Hospice of Michigan Foundation will continue to support of HOM's programs.
Patients and families currently served by Arbor and HOM will not experience any change with the affiliation. Clinical teams will remain intact and will continue to deliver the highest quality comfort care to palliative care and end-of-life patients and their families.
About Arbor Hospice & Palliative Care Since 1984, Arbor Hospice, headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, has been committed to providing quality, compassionate care for those experiencing life-limiting illnesses throughout southeast Michigan. Arbor Palliative Care was introduced in 2012. Arbor is integrated into the community with the help of its experienced staff and caring volunteers through its certified hospice and palliative care services, inpatient hospice services, grief support services and community education programs. As a patient and family support service, Arbor Hospice's 165 end-of-life and palliative care specialists and more than 400 volunteers keep the patient comfortable, teach the family to provide care, and offer emotional and spiritual support. Arbor is caring for more than 400 patients daily through its hospice and palliative care services in Jackson, Lenawee, Livingston, Monroe, Oakland, Washtenaw and Wayne counties.

Nightwind Treatment Centre (NWTC) has two (2) separate facilities for youth aged 12 – 17 years with behavioral and emotional difficulties. Females who have status under the Child, Youth and Family Enhancement Act and who have been identified as requiring residential care are served. Students with severe mental and/or physical disabilities are unfortunately not suitable for the physical environment and program structure. Kihew House is located in a rural setting on an acreage just west of Legal. This natural environment promotes health and enhances well-being. NWTC has a school on-site in partnership with Aspen View School Division and funded by Alberta Learning. Kihew House also provides individual and group counselling as part of the regular programming. This counselling occurs on-site as well. Lastly, we have a traditional sweat lodge on site with regular sweats and pipe ceremonies lead by an Elder.
Our T-SIL program (Grandmother Turtle House) provides Transitional Supported Independent Living (T-SIL) – a community-based program that provides housing and support to young girls who have completed our treatment program. Grandma Turtle House is located in the small town of Westlock. This small and quiet urban environment provides a variety of shopping, recreational and entertainment opportunities for girls who are more independent by nature of the program. We help these girls in the program to acquire the skills and experience needed to make a successful transition to independence and adulthood, utilizing all they have learned in the treatment program. These clients attend public school, may work part-time if they wish, learn to budget, cook meals, shop for groceries, etc., all under the support and guidance of a Home Provider. Clients in this program also continue to receive individual counselling, group counselling (when necessary) and take part in many of the cultural/spiritual activities. They are still connected to the aspects of the treatment program that they may need to access if they encounter difficulties.
Each of our programs are licensed and accredited, designed to meet the needs of referral agencies, youth, their families and communities. Our programs maintain a clincial treatment component, traditional teachings/spiritual component and an educational component.


You finally relented and ala Victoria Beckham you swore off your high heeled shoes for ones that were equally fashionable. Now you have a whole stack of ballet flats, Converse sneaks, and Stan Smiths.
Unfortunately you didn't check in with the foot police before you made your purchase. The problem is that wearing ballet flats and sneakers can be equally as bad for you as high heels.
While you might be slowing down bunion progression and painful neuromas by putting your stilettos up for sale, with flat shoes you're putting yourself at risk for other foot problems.
Plantar fasciitis or heel pain is the number one problem for those who love to walk in flat shoes.
Every time you step down on a flat shoe your arches flatten out due to the lack of support. When that happens, the plantar fascia that runs from the ball of your foot to your heel stretches out more than it should. Over time an overstretched plantar fascia can lead to micro tears and heel pain.
Also, if you've just made the switch from heel to flats without any time in a supportive shoe, you're more likely to experience immediate pain. Wearing heels causes your calf muscle to shorten and flat shoes stretch them out. And because your calf is attached to the plantar fascia in your heel, you're asking your plantar fascia to stretch even more, causing more damage to your heel.
I know that many of you will still end up wearing flat shoes after reading this blog, so here's how to cushion the blow.
Instead of going from high heels to flats alone, keep your flat shoe wear to a minimum. Instead of walking to the bus and work in your ballet flats, wear a pair of supportive tennis shoes for your longer walks.
Get yourself a pair of Powersteps or Superfeet for your ballet flats. It will make a big difference in providing the support your need.
Think outside of the box. Although flat shoes are popular, keep in mind that every bit of height you add up to an inch will help prevent heel pain.


kjv@Acts:11:26 @ And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.

I'm sharing with you my meditations from Christmas Eve and Day the day after Christmas because if you're like me you won't remember a word the preacher said and just want a long winter nap.
So, for both of us, a chance to reflect on what yesterday meant for us.
Christmas Eve Mediation- The End of Childhood?
My friend called me last week and said she and her husband were coming close to having the conversation. The big conversation.
The one about the big guy in red with their 5 year old.
I didn't envy her one bit, that was not going to be a good conversation. Though as I've heard about other conversations from friends usually the conversation happened when their child came home from school and they heard one of their friends say something or their older brother or sister had told them and the news was met with disbelief, tears or with some a "I already knew that" kind of attitude.
I've seen this conversation being labeled with things as like: the end of innocence, the end of childhood and the end of believing in dreams. That is a lot of emotional blackmail all piled up on that particular belief.
It brought about the conversation with my friends with kids about whether or not it matters how you celebrate Christmas. Talking about it most of our thoughts initially were that some of those ways of celebrating Christmas that we just talked about were harmless fun, that we could just immerse ourselves in and teach our kids about. But then we really started asking if these things are simply harmless fun then why the tears and the emotional scarring and the "end of childhood" when all of these beliefs are revealed for what they are-sparkly on the outside but with no real substance, kind of like a wrapped Christmas present with nothing inside.
But for us adults I've been listening on the radio about how we should celebrate Christmas and I keep hearing phrases like the "most wonderful," "most magical" and "most decadent" time of the year. If we try to celebrate every Christmas as if it is the most wonderful time of the year what do we do with the rest of the 364 days or we wonder what kind of magic are we suppose to be producing or watching for and if it is the most decadent that leads to some of the more sinful indulgences that are usually associated with an office holiday party and a little too much spiked egg nog. Is that how Christmas or this strange and vague and amorphous thing called "Happy Holidays" should be celebrated?
Maybe… how you are celebrating this holiday season really is a reflection of what you are celebrating just like the perpetual frown on the Grinch's face was a reflection of his heart being an empty hole, a brain full of spiders and garlic in his soul.
That is a disturbing thought that means maybe some of the ways we are suppose to be celebrating this holiday season is really a reflection of an empty hole filled with garlic flavored spiders.
So, what is a guilt inducing man in red that produces the end of childhood and emotional blackmail really a reflection of? Or for the life of them, when I seriously ask my friends what exactly they are celebrating that is the most wonderful, magical and decadent they honestly cannot say and quickly change the topic with a reindeer joke.
Like the presents we will be opening, maybe tonight, most tomorrow and during the week, the wrapping and ribbons and bows look pretty on the outside but what is on the inside?
This week we got a FB post with a helpful Christmas tip to keep your kids in line this Christmas. Wrap a couple of empty boxes with Christmas paper and bows and put their name on them. If they are misbehaving take the empty wrapped box with their name on it and throw it on the fire in the fireplace.
If any of you do that, I will find out and I will know, just like Santa Claus. Unfortunately for the kid's childhood you just ruined, all of that pretty wrapping and ribbons and bows leads you to believe that there is something really special on the inside when it turns out to be nothing at all. Seriously talk about emotional blackmail and the end of childhood!
But it's really what's inside the box that matters not the wrapping on the outside. (That is a lesson all of us need to learn, sooner rather than later).
What's inside your Christmas present this year? There are many things you can fill the box with including nothing at all, but let me suggest you start with the first Christmas present ever given a long time ago in a stable in the hay. It may be one of the oddest Christmas presents you have ever seen. There is no wrapping or bow, ribbon or string. This present doesn't look like much at all and many would simply walk away from this present because it's not shiny on the outside but kind of smelly in that stable filled with animals. But while that very first Christmas present might not look like much on the outside, like we're learning, it's what's on the inside that matters. If we listen to the message that the angels sing and the shepherds hurry to tell and the wise men come from afar to share we might begin to see that the inside of this present is more than we could ever imagine. This nothing to look at present in the hay is born the very love of God and that gazing upon the face of the baby Jesus we are seeing God and can know God and the great love that God has for us by receiving in faith this Jesus born on Christmas day. This hope filled present has for some 2,000 years given humanity a real reason to celebrate, a reason that when god's love fills your own life it changes everything on the inside, on the outside and forever.
If that is who you are celebrating this Christmas, the very gift of God's amazing unending love given for you so you can be filled with that love and give that love, if you are celebrating Jesus this Christmas inside that Christmas present then that changes how you are going to celebrate Christmas on the outside.
Think of it this way. If you were going to wrap Jesus Christ to be given again to yourself and to the people you love how would you wrap God's love? Would you wrap God's love with emotional blackmail and trauma inducing men in red? Or will you wrap Jesus with spiked egg nog and the decadence akin to a holiday office party or with expensive tinsel and paper that will not last?
I don't think so. How will you wrap God's love? How will you celebrate Christmas rightly if you are celebrating Jesus. It will be with the love that comes from above in honest and real ways that show others how much they are loved by God. Wrapped with prayer and worship, love and Christian compassion. Decorated with kindness and filled with the Good News that God loves you so much that He gave you Jesus to save you from your brokenness and give to you a life with Him that never ends.
It was after a Sunday morning service that a stranger to the congregation visiting that Sunday walked through the greeting line in the back with tears in her eyes told me that I was a beautiful, beautiful man and thanked me as she hurried out the door.
It's really easy to say that I had absolutely no idea what to do with that one. Never been called that before, certainly consider myself "beautiful" and felt kind of weird receiving that compliment.
Because that simply does not describe me or much that I see.
I've walked around a lot this Christmas in my town and drove around our streets here looking for something beautiful this Christmas. Because I seem to be missing it honestly. When I keep hearing how wonderful and beautiful this season is and when you don't feel it inside you start to wonder if maybe I'm missing something, or if something is wrong with me or maybe it's out there somewhere and I didn't see it yet. So, I've spend a lot of time looking for something beautiful this Christmas. I saw a lot of pretty things because that's one of the definitions of beautiful, aesthetically pleasing.
I saw some aesthetically pleasing brightly colored lights and tasteful decorations (I also saw some that were seizure inducing and just plain ugly). I saw poinsettias and Christmas holly and berry, fireplaces with roaring fires warming stockings hung above. I saw people dressed as Santa and pretty elves and I also chuckled when I saw some terrified children not wanting anything to do with that while their parents forced them on the poor guy's lap. I saw some really pretty trees that just glowed with holiday cheer. While all of these things were pretty and sweet and had a beauty about them I didn't find anything beautiful in the lights and decorations.
I think that's because while something that is pleasing to the eye can be considered beautiful it's not really a good definition of it at all because the world has many "beautiful" people on the outside who are aesthetically pleasing but then they open their mouths and your see their actions and their is nothing beautiful there at all.
Because something that is beautiful, a much better way of defining it, is that it is good. Not just good like a candy cane is good. But that which is excellent, is right, is holy, that makes other things holy and good. That is what is truly beautiful and you're not really going to find that in a candy cane, no matter how tasty it is.
So I didn't find anything beautiful out there this Christmas in the trees and lights crowds (especially when the crowds tried to sideswipe me in the parking lot!) But I also had a hard time finding anything beautiful in here either, that is in me. I know I complain about how grumpy people can get during the holidays and how crazy they can be in the stores when all you just want to get is a can of cranberry sauce and it feels like the apocalypse just happened in Walmart but I haven't been much better. I know I've been grumpy and easily frustrated, I know my words have not always been kind and often I've fallen a lot more on the naughty list then the nice. I like to think it's only the holidays but this is a year long condition for me. I know I'm not alone on that one, sometimes the holidays don't always bring out the best in us but often the rest of the year doesn't bring out the best in us either!
That is why when that stranger to shared with me that kindness I knew it really had very little to actually do with me. So, of course, I talked to my wife about it. (she has all the answers) Without a second thought she said, she heard the good news about Jesus that day in your sermon. I couldn't remember that sermon being any different from any other sermon, but I know that is how God's Word works. I'm simply the waiter delivering the meal it is Jesus who has bought, made and prepared the meal and it is His touch that someone feels when they taste the goodness of what God has prepared. Then she reminded of this passage from Isaiah 52.
There really isn't all that much beautiful about feet. Especially thinking of the feet in this passage without shoes or socks or showers or pedicures but covered in dirt and sand and animal dung, these would not be pretty feet but they were beautiful because what they carried was beautiful.
So I couldn't find anything beautiful on the outside and I couldn't find anything beautiful on the inside this Christmas but I did find that which is truly beautiful right in these words "For today is born in the city of David, our savior, who is Christ the Lord." The message of God's salvation in Jesus born on Christmas day, born to make us holy and save us from our sins. Jesus is the beauty of Christmas and Jesus makes us beautiful.
We who are bearers of the beautiful message of the Christmas story, today, tomorrow, all year long, we might struggle to find something beautiful on the outside and the inside but it doesn't change that God makes us beautiful because we Jesus Christ is born in us in faith and dwells within us and covers us from all of our less than beautiful ways.
Jesus is the beauty in Christmas and you are beautiful because of Jesus this Christmas and all year long.
I get so much out of your writings, sermons Or whatever is the official title. I haven't been able to get into church in the winter so they are especially important. So much fun to see you all busily working on your projects! Love to you all!
Thank you Nana! Miss you.


Most of my friends on the business side who have employed a campus hire from IIMs complain of the mismatch between the expectation and actual performance of the recent hire. A typical, IIM graduate thinks they know it all and doesn't want to get in the trenches and get their hands dirty. Their expectation is to be a manager after the prestigious IIM degree. They expect a rosy, cushy and secure job where everything will be laid out for them and that they will get all the perks that come with it, like traveling abroad and so on. It takes a while for them to come to terms with reality and that's why most of them are not able to hold on to their first job for more than 12 months.
After an 18 month grind post IIMB, where I am involved in solving employability at scale, I strongly believe that B-schools in their current form and shape have become redundant for corporates to hire from.
I am questioning both the selection and transformation process of students at IIMs. If it's garbage in then it will be garbage out. If more folks are selected who just use IIM as a placement agency then basic existence of the transformation process at IIMs is challenged.
A typical curriculum at IIMs focuses on imparting a whole lot of direct (functional/technical) skills in various business functions like strategy, HR, marketing and so on. I urge all of you to take a moment to reflect back on the skills required to do your professional work. Do you really require an MBA degree to do the work you are doing today? Today in the Volatile, Uncertain, Ambiguous& Complex (VUCA) world – what you and I require to succeed is a mixture of some direct skill related to our job and a whole lot of behavioral/soft skills. Rather than calling the latter as soft skills, we call them "Core" skills as it is core to every human irrespective of the job/function esp. in the VUCA world! While multiple core skills are required and the importance of a particular core skill varies based on the business situation we are in, some generic core skills always hold. Pro-activeness, Openness, Curiosity & Perseverance are the four shields in the VUCA world – none of which are taught in classrooms. So if it's just a matter of learning direct skills, then with MOOCs of the world – can't the relevant and best of direct skills be picked up? And with regards to core skills – students currently pick up many of these skills through the various extra-curricular activities. A good time to do these extra-curricular activities is in the more formative years of school (K12) rather than under/post grad days where a lot more unlearning is required making the outcomes more risky! So then what remains of the B-schools – the best of the direct skills can be picked up through various online channels – and classrooms don't impart core skills. So then are B-schools producing the right output for the corporates to hire?
At iPRIMED while we skill the world, we skill our colleagues first. We have handpicked intelligent kids with the right core skills from various NITs and imparted them the relevant direct skills. I can boast that in few months' time with iPRIMED they will be better than most IIM campus hires. So while you decide whether or not to do that campus hiring at IIM, we @iPRIMED might have just cracked the model for you.

EASTMAN'S JAZZ SHOWCASE RAISES MORE THAN $1,000
Rochester, NY — On Friday, September 23, 2005, more than 400 people filled the Eastman School of Music's Kilbourn Hall to attend the School's annual Jazz Showcase. This year, however, the students in the concert's ten ensembles decided to turn the free event into a benefit for a specific group of Hurricane Katrina victims: jazz musicians from New Orleans — the "birthplace of jazz."
"Because of a sense of commitment to a noble cause and a feeling of togetherness with jazz musicians from New Orleans, the performances reached a very high level of creativity and musical maturity," remembers Dariusz Terefenko, an assistant professor of jazz and theory, who led one of seven Jazz Performance Workshops that performed. "The enthusiasm that emanated from the stage was reciprocated by our audience."
With a $5 suggested donation, the event raised $1,154.00 — every penny of which was sent Tuesday by money order to the Jazz Foundation of America. The JFA's Jazz Musicians' Emergency Fund routinely helps jazz musicians obtain services like health and dental care, legal counsel, and even housing for these freelance artists. In the aftermath of Katrina, the JFA was named the official coordinator for the New Orleans Musicians Clinic, and is working with several other Gulf area agencies to deliver food and shelter, as well as instruments and paid gigs to hundreds of musicians.
"I'm very proud of our students," says Eastman Professor Harold Danko, who chairs the jazz and contemporary media department. "We look forward to continued involvement with the Jazz Foundation's mission. I also hope that more Rochester jazz lovers will contribute, by sending donations directly to the JFA."
To donate and/or to find out more, visit www.jazzfoundation.org. The Jazz Foundation of America is also featured in the latest issue of People magazine.

The world of technology, digital marketing, social media have a significant impact on how we behave socially, act as consumers and most importantly how we do business. Thus companies are forced to adapt to this new era of marketing and communication at the risk of being overtaken.
Indeed, the increase in the number of people who use the Internet for everything they want (information, products, services, leisure) and the rise of social networks have led to the generation of a new model of online sales).
The first advantage that we will mention is the one relating to the cost. For, marketing digital marketing through approaches like Inbound marketing gives companies the ability to generate leads by spending less when compared to the investment that would have been made using traditional methods such as advertising or advertising.
Thanks to digital, a company can develop its marketing strategy with little cost and can potentially replace expensive advertising channels such as television, radio or magazine insertion with techniques such as content marketing, SEO optimization and more. distribution via social channels.
Let's take the example of leaflets. How often do these pass in front of your potential customers and how long do they stay in their hands before ending up in the trash? Online, using the social media sharing buttons on your website, your email and social media channels give your community the ability to share your message quickly if it finds it relevant.
The expected result is the improvement of the reputation and the visibility of the company on the preferential channels of the consumers of today and especially the opportunity to attract a continuous flow of qualified prospects towards the site of the company.
Inbound marketing is a long-term strategy. This means that it is a relationship, over the time that you establish with your prospects, based on trust and constant added value for the potential customer. This relationship is based on duration because it is not the first published article that you can directly attract the people you are targeting. But, your publications and SEO optimization will allow you to position yourself on the search engines and to be present when the "ideal client" of your company will do research related to your industry.
The SEO is a process that takes time to bring the first results, but after a few months increases your ranking on the search engines and traffic to your site starts to increase.
It's the same for social networks, because once you get to give activity to your page, followers begin to arrive. This audience is open to your suggestions and you have the means to engage in conversation with them to present your solutions, product updates and especially have feedback in real time.
Because the internet offers many opportunities globally, strategies like inbound marketing focused on producing useful and optimized content allows you to expand your reach beyond your borders. As a result, it can reach new audiences and diversify the reach of messages by running different campaigns.
Online marketing through tactics like PPC can reach people who are searching for your services via keyword targeting.
Your business can be seen all over the world, just through a marketing campaign. Compared with traditional marketing, the costs would be enormous to achieve the same results. In addition, once you have optimized your content and site with the relevant keywords, you should see a long-term return coupled with a low investment to maintain your ranking.
Digital offers the possibility to see in real time what works well or what works less for your business and thus adapt very quickly your strategy to improve your results.
Regarding the traffic on your site, you can use a tool like Google Analytics to measure the specific goals you want to achieve for your website or blog.
So far, all of the benefits described above are related to costs and sales, but they are not the only marketing goals. There are cases where you want to build your brand awareness and make your business better known or change the perception people have of your products .
Inbound marketing is the perfect solution for this, because not only does it help you position yourself as an expert in your field through your content, but it also helps to make your brand known on the various online channels.
You can make use of social media, blog posts, infographics, PPC, SEO to position your brand in front of thousands of prospects and educate them about your business and its solutions.

You know fall is coming when you start to feel that slight chill in the air. You suddenly realize you need blankets at night and a sweater in the morning. Whether we like it or not, summer is ending. It's already September and Labor Day weekend is past.
It's never too early to start thinking about your home improvement plans for next summer or over the coming year. Keep an inspiration binder where you tear out pictures you like and jot down ideas that inspire you. You might also want to keep a file or magazine holder full of the catalogues and magazines you pick up, so when it's time for a project you have a one stop visual resource.
An inspiration binder is a great way not only to help you plan, but contractors can use it as a guide for helping you achieve your dream project. Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words, and an inspiration binder can help insure you're vision and your contractor's vision match.
After a busy spring and summer, contractors usually have a smaller number of projects. With a more open schedule you'll have more control over your project timeline and will likely have more one on one time working directly with your contractor. You might want to consider a small interior remodel before Thanksgiving, or perhaps even before Christmas for you and your family to enjoy for the holidays.
You may not be embarking on any projects for the fall and winter, but that doesn't mean you've got nothing home related to do. Home maintenance should be a high priority for both fall and winter. Check out our Fall Maintenance Guide for a more information about how to prepare and protect your home. Hiring a handyman for your home maintenance could be a good option for you if you prefer to outsource home related projects.

The Struggle for Sovereignty
Door Joyce L. Malcolm
The Struggle for Sovereignty. Seventeenth-Century English Political Tracts (2 volumes)
Malcolm, Joyce L.
Indianapolis, Liberty Fund, Inc.
ISBN Vol I: 9780865971530; ISBN Vol II: 9780865971882; ISBN set: 9780865971899
For much of Europe the seventeenth century was, as it has been termed, an ''Age of Absolutism'' in which single rulers held tremendous power. Yet the English in the same century succeeded in limiting the power of their monarchs. The English Civil War in midcentury and the Glorious Revolution of 1688 were the culmination of a protracted struggle between kings eager to consolidate and even extend their power and subjects who were eager to identify and defend individual liberties. The source and nature of sovereignty was of course the central issue. Did sovereignty reside solely with the Crown—as claimed theorists of ''the divine right''? Or did sovereignty reside in a combination of Crown and Parliament—or perhaps in only the House of Commons—or perhaps, again, in the common law, or even in ''the people''? To advance one or another of these views, scholars, statesmen, lawyers, clergy, and unheralded citizens took to their books—and then to their pens. History, law, and scripture were revisited in a quest to discover the proper relationship between ruler and ruled, between government and the governed. Pamphlets abounded as never before. An entire literature of political discourse resulted from this extraordinary outpouring—and vigorous exchange—of views. The results are of a more than merely antiquarian interest. The political tracts of the English peoples in the seventeenth century established enduring principles of governance and of liberty that benefited not only themselves but the founders of the American republic. These writings, by the renowned (Coke, Sidney, Shaftesbury) and the unremembered (''Anonymous'') therefore constitute an enduring contribution to the historical record of the rise of ordered liberty. Volume I of The Struggle for Sovereignty consists of pamphlets written from the reign of James I to the Restoration (1620–1660). Volume II encompasses writings from the Restoration through the Glorious Revolution of 1688–1689. All of the major issues and writers are represented. Each volume includes an introduction and chronology. Joyce Lee Malcolm is Professor of History at Bentley College.

Star-spangled Fishing
Joel Kunz|
Also the month with my birthday, July is my favorite fishing month and a time where action is in full swing on the waterways. The Wolf River system has many walleyes in the river and out on the lower lakes.
Early mornings are best for walleyes, and the bass and pike are strong enough to keep you busy. Catfish also bite well, which makes for some fun night fishing if there's enough of a breeze to keep the mosquitos at bay.
Lake Winnebago really starts heating up in July. By this time most of the walleyes that were headed back to the big lake have made it there. Although many of the post-spawn fish return quickly, the bulk of the population takes their sweet time returning. That's why so many of the big-time June walleye tournaments are won on the upper lakes or in the Fox River west of Lake Winnebago. But by this month the "mud bite" gets going for the trollers and the reef fishing can be great with the right wind. And don't overlook shallow, windblown, rocky and weedy shoreline areas.
Over the last number of years, the Bay of Green Bay has been a destination I enjoy. The walleyes and smallmouths are world class. Add a rebounding perch population and the availability of some big pike and trophy muskies and you have plenty of reasons to take the trip. I like the area around Little Sturgeon Bay and Larsen's Reef.
In the past, trolling had been king for walleyes, but in 2017 you can find more anglers casting and jigging to catch these fish. It's a return to the days when anglers really had no way of effectively trolling and could work the reef areas in such a manner. Handmade spoons and other ways to get a minnow to flutter to the bottom were incorporated. Anglers would then work rock humps and fish- holding areas, often anchoring on or near a high point on the structure. A long cast with high-tech fishing line was not a part of the formula then nor were the bait-imitating plastics we have today. It was pretty much close-at-hand combat for the big-bay walleyes.
Want some July-fishing fireworks? Head out to the big lake and get yourself hooked up with a big chinook or steelhead. Now is the best time of the year to do so because it's when things start heating up on Lake Michigan. From the tip of Door County to the Milwaukee Harbor, charter captains and recreational anglers are out in search of these hard-fighting, great-tasting fish.
Other species like lake and brown trout can be caught now, into August is when the lake salmon really turns on. I like the fun and feel of being with a well-schooled charter captain. The sheer number of baits that one can run on one of these boats is amazing. Electric downriggers, for instance, were the "innovations" used with these boasts since I've fished the lake way back in the '80s. A day on a Lake Michigan charter boat is a well spent, especially with family, friends or a group of people from work.
So get out and enjoy some summer fishing. And if you're planning on being in the Fremont area, feel free to reach out and I'll try and point you in the right direction. If you're going out on the big lake and have an open seat, well, feel free to let me know about that too.

Robert Warren Miller (born May 23, 1933) is an American billionaire, entrepreneur, co-founder of DFS (Duty Free Shops), and sailing champion. He is the father of Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece, Princess Alexandra von Fürstenberg, and Pia Getty, dubbed by tabloids and high society as The Miller Sisters.

Early life and education

Miller was born in Quincy, Norfolk County, Massachusetts, on May 23, 1933, son of Ellis Miller, a bookkeeper and salesman, and Sophia "Sophie" Squarebriggs, a Canadian-born former governess.

Miller attended Cornell University School of Hotel Administration and graduated in 1955, with a Bachelor of Science in Hotel Administration. He was a member of the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity and the Irving Literary Society.

Career

Duty Free Shoppers (DFS)

The concept of "duty-free shopping" – offering "high-end" concessions to travelers, free of import taxes – was in its infancy when, with Chuck Feeney, Miller founded DFS on November 7, 1960.

DFS began operations in Hong Kong, where it still maintains its corporate headquarters, later expanding to Europe and other continents. DFS' first major breakthrough came in the early 1960s, when it secured the exclusive concession for duty-free sales in Hawaii and Hong Kong, allowing it to market its products to Japanese travelers. DFS eventually expanded to off-airport duty-free stores and large downtown Galleria stores, and became the world's largest travel retailer. In 1996, Feeney's interests were acquired by Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy (LVMH), the French luxury goods group, for $1.63 billion.

Miller kept his shares and remains a significant minority shareholder (38%) in DFS alongside LVMH, which bought out Feeney's share. More recently, Miller targeted the emergence of mainland China's economic elite. To present its new merchandise, DFS has moved beyond the airport liquor-store venue and into store environments, seeking to market the broadest portfolio of brand names in the travelling marketplace. In 2010, the DFS Group had an estimated sales of about €2.2 billion. As of 2012, it has 150 stores in fifteen Pacific countries. Its downtown activities operate under the Galleria brand.

Miller was named the November 2010 Personality of the Month by The Moodie Report for his "advancement" of the "luxury goods industry's cause." That year, DFS celebrated its 50th anniversary at the DFS Galleria Sun Plaza store in Hong Kong, with a gala attended by 2000 guests, and featuring a performance by Wyclef Jean.

Search Investment Group Ltd
In 1973, Miller founded Search Investment Group Ltd, an international investment company of which he is CEO and chairperson. The Search investment Group Ltd is a large shareholder in Ortelius Capital Partners, which is an investment firm founded by Miller's son-in-law HRH Prince Pavlos of Greece and Mr. Peter DeSorcy. He is also principal of SAIL advisors (Search Alternative Investments Ltd), global investors in hedge funds. Along with other assets, Miller was ranked in 2016 the 68th wealthiest person in the UK, down from 22nd in 2003.

Sailing records
In October 2003, Miller's monohull yacht, the Mari-Cha IV, set a new world record, becoming the first monohull ever to cross the Atlantic Ocean in under seven days. During the same crossing, the yacht also broke the 24-hour distance record, by sailing . Both he and his son-in-law Pavlos, Crown Prince of Greece were crew members.

On April 30, 2005, the Mari-Cha IV won the Rolex Transatlantic Challenge and broke the century-old record for a west-to-east transatlantic crossing established by Charlie Barr. It completed the 2,925-nautical mile passage across the North Atlantic between New York and England in a time of 9 days, 15 hours, 55 minutes and 23 seconds—a full 2 days, 12 hours, 6 minutes and 56 seconds faster than the record set 100 years earlier. During the record-breaking crossing, Miller pushed the Mari-Cha IV beyond its limits in poor weather, and the mainsail headboard and the headboard cars on both mainsail and mizzen broke.

Personal life

On August 3, 1965 Miller married Ecuadorian-born María Clara "Chantal" Pesantes Becerra. They have three daughters: Pia (b. 1966), Marie-Chantal (b. 1968), and Alexandra (b. 1972).

He owns the  Gunnerside Estate in Yorkshire, one of the largest sporting country estates in Great Britain.

Associations
Miller is a trustee of the Asia Society, the Independent non-executive director and Member of the Remuneration Committee of Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Ltd., and presidential councilor and trustee emeritus of Cornell University.

Philippines woos foreign businesses in Singapore
Posted by September 7, 2022 September 7, 2022
From Marvel superheroes to Mickey Mouse to Elton John: Disney+ gives viewers access to a universe of viewing choice
Dark clouds hover over Manila before dawn, Sept 3. — PHILIPPINE STAR/ MIGUEL DE GUZMAN
PRESIDENT Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. on Wednesday wooed foreign businesses in Singapore to invest in the Philippines, which he described as "Asia's fastest rising star."
"We are presently on a steady path to a strong recovery from the pandemic and a robust economic expansion. In the next few years, our economy is expected to outperform our regional peers," Mr. Marcos said at a Philippine economic briefing in Singapore that was livestreamed on Facebook.
The Philippine economy grew by 7.8% in the first half, as business activity picked up amid the decline in coronavirus infections. The government is targeting 6.5-7.5% gross domestic product (GDP) growth for the full year, and 6.5-8% for 2023 to 2028.
Mr. Marcos, who is on a state visit to Singapore, said the administration is committed to establishing "an even more competitive business climate, conducive to high-value investments."
Finance Secretary Benjamin E. Diokno said the economy's prospects are "bright and promising" as it continues to recover from the pandemic.
"The country's solid macroeconomic fundamentals reinforced by structural reforms enabled us to withstand the headwinds of the pandemic and mount a strong recovery," Mr. Diokno said at the same event.
He highlighted several key economic reforms, such as amendments to the Retail Trade Liberalization Act, Public Service Act and Foreign Investment Act, which are aimed at encouraging foreign companies to invest in previously protected sectors.
The Finance chief also touted the Corporate Recovery and Tax Incentives for Enterprises (CREATE) Act, which reduced the corporate income tax on companies.
"We have changed drastically our environment, and now I think you're welcome to do business in the Philippines. It's a much improved environment. Plus, our secret weapon is our young population," Mr. Diokno said.
Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Arsenio M. Balisacan said the administration is working to address inflation and the economic scars inflicted by the pandemic, as well as create jobs and reduce poverty.
"What we are putting across, the plans and programs we are putting together, we are confident that doing business in the Philippines is not only profitable but also more fun," he said.
SM Investments Corp. Vice Chairperson and BDO Unibank, Inc. Chairperson Teresita T. Sy-Coson expressed support for the economic team, saying that monetary and fiscal policies are "very stable."
"In spite of the inflation rate and the depreciation [of the peso], we're still very much okay. And you don't hear a lot of complaints (from) the private sector. So, we're confident that we're altogether (heading) toward a better economic future in the Philippines," she said.
In order to attract more foreign investments, Trade Secretary Alfredo E. Pascual said the Philippines is looking at entering into more free trade agreements, and plans to sign one with South Korea by November.
He also said the new administration will prioritize the ratification of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). The previous Senate failed to ratify the RCEP due to concerns over the lack of protection for the agriculture industry.
AGREEMENTSMeanwhile, the Philippine government sealed bilateral agreements with Singaporean counterparts covering water services, digital cooperation, personal data protection and air transport, according to the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA).
The Bases Conversion Development Authority (BCDA) and Enterprise Singapore signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) "to jointly develop the New Clark City through technology transfer and partnerships in urban and smart city solutions."
The armed forces of the Philippines and Singapore sealed a deal wherein a Philippine team will be assigned to the Regional Counter-Terrorism Information Facility in Singapore.
The Department of Information and Communications Technology and its Singaporean counterpart inked a MOU on digital cooperation.
The National Privacy Commission and Singapore's Personal Data Protection Commission also renewed their MOU that would pave the way for more collaboration in the digital economy and data protection.
The Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System renewed the MOU on water collaboration with Singapore's Public Utilities Board.
"To increase connectivity and create more opportunities for collaboration and growth, the two sides are also working to realize progress on the expansion of the bilateral air transport agreement which will increase connectivity and create more opportunities for collaboration and growth," the DFA said. — Diego Gabriel C. Robles and Kyle Aristophere T. Atienza

Sovereign Debt Crisis Bad For Europe, Good For U.S. Stocks
Stock-Markets / Stock Markets 2010 Jun 24, 2010 - 06:11 AM GMT
By: Money_Morning
Jon D. Markman writes: For several months now, we've been talking about the post-financial-crisis "new world order" that's emerged from the speculative excesses, recessionary realities and regulatory breakdowns of recent years. This new world order has created a world of lucrative new profit opportunities - that are governed by a new set of profit rules.
In terms of that whole new rules/new profit opportunities paradigm, here's one that may surprise you: The ongoing European crisis could end up as a net positive for U.S. stocks.
Let me explain...
A Revealing Prediction
We've talked a lot about the debt and corporate growth troubles in Europe and the developed economies of Asia, and I've shown you a lot of reasons why the companies in those regions should suffer. Yet shares in those regions of the world have actually risen.
For some additional insight on the forces at play, I checked in with the folks at the New York-based Craig Drill Capital - a great, under-the-radar hedge fund that employs some of the best analysts and money managers in the world. Steven H. Reynolds , the firm's chief investment officer, has a sanguine view of Europe. And he believes that the European debt crisis could end up looking like a net positive for American shareholders.
"For U.S. equity investors, a return to the 'Goldilocks' environment will evolve," Reynolds said. "Moderate economic growth, subdued inflation, strong corporate profits, low interest rates and ample liquidity argue for higher asset prices" - including U.S. stocks.
Eurozone Blues
For investors who insist on keeping informed, there's no shortage of news about the European debt situation. Trouble is, most of that news is bad. And, in typical knee-jerk fashion, with each announcement, investors in each of the world's major markets react by whipsawing security prices for the following day or two, which causes additional worry - and uncertainty.
For instance, Bloomberg News just reported that European banks at risk of write-downs from the sovereign debt crisis face a funding squeeze that may depress earnings, curb lending and imperil the region's economic recovery.
Bloomberg said investors are shunning bank securities on concerns that Greek, Portuguese and Spanish bonds held by the lenders will plunge in value. Bank bond sales slowed in May to the lowest level since the Lehman Brothers Holdings (OTC: LEHMQ) failure in 2008, as the extra yield buyers demand to hold the securities over government debt soared to the highest this year. Firms are wary of lending to each other, depositing record funds with the European Central Bank. (ECB).
"There is a lot of mistrust," said Christoph Rieger, a bond analyst at Commerzbank AG (PINK ADR: CRZBY) in Frankfurt, told Bloomberg. "Banks are trading with the ECB rather than with each other."
Reynolds, the Craig Drill Capital analyst, says the situation isn't nearly as alarming as it seems.
He basically believes that while pu blic and private debt levels and interest payments relative to gross domestic product (GDP) are at dangerous levels in Europe, the problems are more manageable than the ones that sparked the global financial crisis in 2008:
•The banks are sounder.
•There is more transparency.
•Most of the problems are out in the open.
•And - most important of all - the "financial engineers" at the European Union (EU) and ECB are now experienced in crisis management.
Those financial engineers, "honed on the Panic of 2008 ... are capable of developing creative remedies to the current liquidity crisis," Reynolds said. "For a reasonable period of time, a relatively stable - yet fragile - financial system will result."
A Buoyant U.S. Outlook?
There's no denying that bearish investors have made their case in recent weeks. They are legitimately afraid that the economies of the United States and Europe will fade so much in the months to come that they will sink back into recessions punctuated by credit blowups and a resumption of a bear market for U.S. stocks.
Still, the simple fact that there are a few economic boogey-men lurking behind each piece of data (many of which are actually quite suspect) doesn't mean that investors should run screaming away from stocks.
In fact, if you take the time to listen to the opposite point of view before you make up your mind about the direction the economy is headed, you might be pleasantly surprised.
Just consider these most-recent developments and revelations.
Capital Economics, a crack London-based macroeconomic research team, reported four positive developments for the U.S. recovery. CapEcon said that:
•U.S. household net worth rose for the fourth straight quarter.
•Manufacturing output will rise by 1% in June.
•Gasoline prices are expected to drop 4.5% this month from last month, keeping inflation at bay.
•And a weather-related jump in energy generation is expected to add 0.6% to industrial production
Analyst Richard Berner - the co-head of global economics and chief U.S. economist at Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS), recently said that his economic models suggest that the pace of economic growth will actually quicken in the months to come.
According to Berner, "incoming data portray a robust economy, an acceleration from a 3% pace of growth in Q1 to a 4% annual clip in Q2 even as consumer spending decelerates ... and we continue to expect 3.5% overall growth in the second half of this year."
The U.S. recovery will benefit from a bit of a tailwind created by the European debt situation, says Craig Drill Capital's Reynolds.
"For the European economy, restrictive policies should be moderately deflationary with slower growth, a competitive euro for trade, and stable interest rates. For the U.S., the impact should be minimal with a weak euro/U.S. dollar, moderately lower exports, continued low levels of interest rates and positive foreign capital inflows.''
Plus, don't forget that the whole European mess will provide two big tailwinds to American consumers: A continuation of the afore-mentioned drop in gasoline prices - thanks to a stronger dollar - and lower mortgages rates - thanks to a rise in demand for U.S. Treasury bonds spawned by the lack of faith in the European financial system.
Europe is troubled. But the region's leaders are on the case, and the lower euro and interest rates will prove to be palliative - at least for awhile, Reynolds says.
Just how long the "perfect storm" fallout from an imperfect Europe will continue to aid the U.S. rebound and support U.S. stocks remains to be seen.
The bottom line for U.S. investors : Overall economic and corporate growth may be set to slow, but not to levels that are disastrous, or even likely to imperil U.S. stocks - at least not yet.
Investors should continue to trade the pessimism while it persists. But they should also be watchful for an overabundance of optimism if we get to the top of the range at the 1,150 level of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, or if bears get the upper hand and manage to push the benchmark U.S. stocks index back down under 1,040. That would represent a decline of about 5% from yesterday's (Wednesday's) close of 1,092,04.
