Display counters are an integral part of many businesses, regardless of whether you own a shoe store,clothing boutique,nightclub,or something else like these. They are perhaps the most common part of any design bar and certainly put up with different types of styles. Besides,there are still many other check-out counter in some restaurant, liquids store and food shop,all these places also need the modern bar counter and it is imperative that quality materials are used.
Now, there are many companies that are able to provide shop counters and display cabinets, but what happens if your needs are specific. Maybe your premises are an unusual shape or if you are unsure about the whole process of store fixtures. A good supplier of custom counter must provide the best services for their customers.
A good company shopfitting will be able to take your ideas and develop them into something that really suits your needs and desires accuracy. At the same time, they should be able to guide you through a project from start to the end. In this way, you are dealing with a company minimizing problems that may arise.
Another thing to consider is the choice of products. It is always better if there is a wide range of designs and styles that you can choose from, allowing you to find one that suits you in your situation. A good company shopfitting should have a wide range of products to meet your various needs.
Since the counters and display cabinets can take many shapes, sizes, and have many applications, choosing the right one depends on your business.

When starting up a new business, one first burst of entrepreneurial energy should get you momentum.
Your idea is good and you also have the knowledge and passion to make it happen. You wouldn't be starting a new business if you didn't already have a good idea where to find your first few customers.
With all that you can most likely build some momentum and begin to see your growth advancing. As you continue to climb it could become an upward battle and you begin to slow down. You must realize that it has nothing to do with how good your business is or how good you are at what you do.
It just may be that many of those new customers you thought you would find are actually hard to find. You do know they are out there somewhere, but how do you find them and have them come to you?
At this point, you may need to stop concentrating on finding customers, but rather concentrate on getting leads.
Things will look differently when you start to build lead generation routinely. When lead generation is done right, it can provide a steady flow of prospects forming a pool of leads which will eventually become your new customers.
Let's start with what is referred to as the content upgrade, the opt-in bribe or the lead magnet. The point behind this method is to give something useful in exchange for someone's email address. The following are 5 options to feel more than fair to opt-in.
1. Rather than just providing your leads one useful resource, why not give them several resources by creating a PDF of all your favorite tools to reach a certain goal.
2. If you are looking for someone to sign up for a news letter, provide instant recompense with bonuses such as an e-book for signing up.
3. Offer your leads a taste of something such as a short consultation or one chapter of an e-book to inspire them to want more.
4. Need an audience for unveiling something big? Provide your people that signed up for your unveiling notification list a launch preview; a free first look.
5. Take notes at a big event such as an industry conference that you know would be interesting for your leads but that they wouldn't be able to attend. Share this with them by creating a document, and put it on a landing page you created as a download. Share it by posting the link on any forums or groups you are affiliated with.
6. According to a Google survey, "how to" searches on YouTube are on the rise. If you have any do it yourself skills that endorse your business, take advantage of this by creating a how-to webinar.
7. Create a question and answer webinar that specializes in something people would want. Have them opt-in in order to ask you for it. Most people find this very rewarding and it's the easiest kind of webinar create.
8. Host a live stream to provide a link to your landing page or opt-in number so viewers can obtain a relevant resource.
9. Create a streaming webinar with a partner as a co-host that has complementary skill sets; you each gain exposure and create new leads from each other's audience.
10. Give podcasting a plus by taking advantage to inspire listeners to text your lead digit for a related download to the topic. You can do this during the intro or at the end. This idea can work whether you are a guest or a host.
11. If you have a product, you could encourage visitors from your site to obtain a video of how to use your product.
12. Take advantage of YouTube by posting a video on a popular topic. Then use the in video link to send viewers to your landing page to watch a full length tutorial or the next installment on a how-to series.
13. Link a guest post to your landing page and opt-in bribe made just for those reading the post's.
14. LinkedIn is a place for people to go to advance their career, so you can run an ad to a LinkedIn landing page that offers something to help improve a professional skill.
15. Target social ads by sending highly targeted Facebook ads that run to equally specific landing pages.
Use behavioral targeted features along with lookalike audiences to put your ad in the view of people who need what you do.
16. Use Pinterest for prospecting if you have a strong user base by posting promoted pins that link to a blog containing great opt-in opportunities.
17. If you are a common user of Twitter, you may be familiar with Twitter takeovers. That is when one person hands over the control to another person for a specific period of time. You could try an email takeover and trade with another partner or entrepreneur using a Lead Link to grab new leads from inside the email.
18. Take advantage of the power of the press. This method can work well if you already have an ongoing Column, your business is being featured in an online publication; you are the subject of a piece or are being consulted as an expert. Provide a link to your business and gear the landing page toward the readers of the publication.
19. If you have a blog add a Lead Box to each blog post that provides a relevant content upgrade.
20. Provide different format options for the use of content. Perhaps offer a slide deck video post, an audio format of a blog post or a transcript from a podcast.

Now, our new office space will reflect the 'workplace of the future' trends that we currently advise our clients on and provide flexible, collaborative work environments for our growing team to utilize and enjoy.
Savills Studley, the leading commercial real estate services company specializing in tenant representation, announces that it will relocate its Atlanta office to Monarch Tower, located at 3424 Peachtree Road in Buckhead. The move is part of the company's plan to aggressively grow its Atlanta and Southeast presence, which began with the appointment of Chris White as Executive Vice President and Atlanta Market Leader in 2015.
Savills Studley has recently made a number of strategic new hires to the Atlanta office, bolstering its capabilities both regionally and nationally. Industry veterans John Flack, Bo Keatley and David Rubenstein recently joined Savills Studley from Cresa Atlanta, while Kevin Rodriguez joined from JLL to lead the regional project management team.
"In the last year we've added top-quality talent, made significant investments in mentorship and training, and completed some of the most significant transactions across Atlanta. Now, our new office space will reflect the 'workplace of the future' trends that we currently advise our clients on and provide flexible, collaborative work environments for our growing team to utilize and enjoy," White said.
The new office design includes innovative features such as a workplace lab, a series of spaces in the office where clients can test new and innovative ways of working; and a café area with bar-height seating, closed-door huddle rooms and a large war room with video conferencing capabilities. The space will provide a living room-style experience for the staff by blending spaces to create an open environment where the lines between conference, hospitality and collaboration are blurred.
Monarch Tower is a premier class A building located in one of Atlanta's most prestigious office markets. The building will be home to Savills Studley's growing business and expanding workplace in Atlanta, where the firm first arrived in 1997. The company's conflict-free business model of representing only tenants was pioneered by the firm's founder in 1954 and continues to provide the foundation for its current growth and expansion of its many services including workplace strategy, project management, corporate services and more.
In February 2017, Savills Studley will move to 11,389 square feet on the 21st floor of Monarch Tower, a building owned by Highwood Properties. The new offices were designed by architecture firm Smallwood, Reynolds, Stewart, Stewart. Savills Studley currently occupies 10,525 square feet Monarch Plaza, which sits adjacent to Monarch Tower.
"Our goal was to provide Savills Studley's powerhouse Atlanta team with an engaging, collaborative workplace of the future. With the dramatic Atlanta skyline as a backdrop, their new home will provide a variety of venues and technologies to encourage both internal interaction and engagement with their clients in an environment that reflects the globally recognized Savills Studley brand," said Gil Garrison, principal at Smallwood, Reynolds, Stewart, Stewart.
Managing Director Tom Kubis of Savills Studley represented the tenant along with Corporate Managing Director Michael Broome. Tom Miller and Lisa Misiak of NGKF represented the landlord in this transaction.
In the past 18 months, Savills Studley has established several new offices in thriving real estate markets across the United States, including Phoenix, Austin, Minneapolis and Baltimore. In addition, the company has completed several high-profile acquisitions, highlighted by the purchase of Real Facilities in Toronto, a major tenant representation consulting firm in Canada; Cooper Brady Partners in Silicon Valley, the top performing firm in one of the nation's hottest areas; Tampa-based Vertical Integration, which strengthens the firm's occupier services and workforce strategy business; and New York-based management consulting firm KLG Advisors, a well-known firm that provides strategic location and workforce advisory services, including portfolio evaluation and realignment, to large corporations.

Gov. Scott Walker says that he's hopeful state lawmakers won't block an emergency rule that he called for that aims to slow the spread of chronic wasting disease in Wisconsin's deer herd.
At a press event in Green Bay on Monday, Walker reacted to an email sent to legislators by state Sen. Steven Nass, R-Whitewater, that signaled opposition to an emergency rule drafted by the state Department of Natural Resources. The rule proposes banning hunters from transporting deer carcasses from the state's 55 CWD-affected counties effective Oct. 1 and requiring additional fencing at deer farms. The governor said he is willing to cooperate with lawmakers.
"If there's additional feedback that lawmakers are having about things we can do to further improve that absolutely, we're willing to work with them," Walker said. "I just want to make sure it's not a barrier to making progress on protecting us on chronic wasting disease."
In his email to the Legislature, Nass was critical of the rule's substance and its timing.
"This emergency rule contains substantial and burdensome changes to the way Wisconsin hunters will deal with deer carcasses with little advance notice or education," Nass wrote.
In May, Walker directed the DNR to write rules on carcass transport and deer farm fencing, which the agency's citizen-led Natural Resources Board approved in August. He also called on the state Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection to draft rules on enhanced fencing requirements at deer farms and private hunting ranches. The DATCP Board though voted to take no action on the measure.
Whitetails of Wisconsin, the state's deer farming industry group, has protested Walker's rule as it would require the farms to install additional fencing. The group has said the proposed fencing requirements wouldn't do anything to stop or slow CWD from spreading and the associated costs could drive members out of business.
Nass co-chairs what's called the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules, which oversees the rulemaking of agencies like the DNR and DATCP. In his email to lawmakers, Nass said he intends to convene a meeting on the emergency measures.
"I will be requesting a public hearing and executive session of the committee to consider the possibility of suspending all or parts of the emergency rule after it takes effect on (Oct. 1)," Nass wrote.
When asked about what options he has if Nass blocks the CWD rule, the governor said there might be other avenues to enact the changes for hunters and captive deer farms, but he didn't elaborate how.
"We obviously have some concerns about making sure affected areas, they're not transporting, there might be some other ways that guarantee that that still makes it easier for hunters to transport their venison as they get it," said Walker.
Staff at Nass' office said that a public hearing on the matter has been scheduled for Oct. 1, which is the same day the DNR's CWD rule was set to take effect.

Quarter of doctors have sought mental health support during pandemic
The Royal College of Physicians (RCP) has revealed that 1 in 4 doctors sought mental health support during the pandemic, having faced one of the toughest health crises of the modern era.
Revealed as part of the RCP's eighth survey of its fellows and members, the data showed some of the challenges and pressures placed on frontline doctors by the pandemic and the significant toll it is taking, even despite recent positive news, such as around vaccinations.
Of the quarter of frontline doctors who sought help, more sought informal mental health support compared with formal mental health support from their employer, GP or external services - though only by a 9% disparity (19% of all respondents said they sought informal support, compared to 10% of the total seeking formal).
A third of doctors did report feeling supported (35%) and determined (37%) however this was offset by a majority (64%) feeling tired or exhausted, and nearly half describing themselves as worried (48%).
Burnout has been a huge challenge to the health service during the pandemic, particularly with the already stretched NHS workforce under significant pressure from the virus itself. Under extremely difficult circumstances, many frontline health professionals - from doctors through to healthcare assistants - have reported feeling their work during the pandemic as having taken its toll on their own health and mental wellbeing.
According to the RCP survey, despite 85% of doctors reporting having had the first dose of a vaccine, only 16% have had both doses.
Over half (58%) are either very worried or slightly worried about having to wait 12 weeks for their next jab, an issue which has caused considerable anxiety within the profession.
Professor Andrew Goddard, president of the Royal College of Physicians, said: "There is no way to dress it up – it is pretty awful at the moment in the world of medicine. Hospital admissions are at the highest ever level, staff are exhausted, and although there is light at the end of the tunnel, that light seems a long way away.
"I am extremely concerned about the mental health of frontline doctors, who may be suffering from burnout and a feeling of not being valued. I'm not sure that before the pandemic many physicians would have contemplated that they might need formal mental health support in their career.
"Staff will be in desperate need of a break and will need specific time away if they're to be at their best after the pandemic.
"Doctors have demonstrated remarkable resilience throughout the pandemic, working under the most challenging conditions the NHS has ever faced, but they can't continue working this way forever.
"Workforce shortages need to be urgently addressed post-pandemic if we're ever to reduce the immense pressure on NHS staff and ensure that they are prepared and supported to get the NHS back on an even keel."

In response to questions from students who have booked with us recently we wanted to offer a couple of additional tips for anyone who is considering booking a homestay in London. We hope that the below will be useful to you when deciding (1) when to apply and (2) what locations/zones to opt for.
If you have any questions on the below we will always be happy to advise further so contact us if you have questions that you need answered!
The Earlier You Book Your Homestay The Better!
Many students leave it until the last minute to book their homestay. HFS London is experienced in handling last minute requests, however, please be aware that at certain times of year there can be more demand for homestay than there is supply.
If you are planning to visit London over the summer months, for example, you are advised to book early. The earlier you apply for your summer homestay accommodation, the better chance we have of finding you a host family that meets all of your requirements. Lots of foreign students book their homestay several months in advance so if you leave it too late you may find that there is less choice available for you. Other times of the year are also very busy. January for example is one of busiest months of the year for foreign students starting new courses in the capital. The demand for homestay therefore is very high at this time of year.
In short, always aim to book your host family as early as possible. Our host families are happy to reserve their accommodation many months in advance if required to do so make sure you get ahead of everyone else by not leaving it too late to book.
If this is impossible still do contact us – we will always do our best to help irrespective of notice.
What Zone Should I Choose for my Homestay?
At HFS London we understand that location and travel time are often the highest priorities for foreign students who choose to book a homestay. Many international students are worried about living too far from central London for safety reasons and of course want to be close to all the bars, restaurants and night life that London offers (as well as their place of study of course!).
Many of the capital's universities and language schools are located in central London in areas such as Holborn, Bloomsbury, Oxford Circus, Kensington, Gloucester Road and Covent Garden. These areas are in zone 1. Please be conscious that it can be difficult to find homestays in zone 1 as families generally tend to live further out of London and commute in to central London to work every day. It is very normal therefore for Londoners to commute for up to 1 hour in the mornings to get to work. Host families tend to choose to live outside of central London as such areas are generally less crowded, properties are larger, such areas are much greener and usually there are better schools. International students often believe that it is safer to live closer to central London than in the suburbs. This is not strictly true as London crime statistics consistently show that it is safer to live outside of London than in central London.
What if I Really Want a Zone 1 Homestay?
Although we do have some great host families located in zone 1/very central London (Holborn, Barbican, Borough, South Bank, Kensington, Victoria, Oxford Circus) they are a smaller proportion of our database (which at the time of writing stands at a total of 2000 host families). If you really want to be in zone 1 then it is essential that you apply for your homestay early. Zone 1 homestays in London are always the most in demand and so are often very busy all year round. Please also note that homestays in zone 1 are often a slightly different profile of host to homestays outside of zone 1. You may find yourself living with a professional couple or perhaps an individual as it is rarer to find families (mum, dad and children) living in very central London. Due to busier lifestyles Zone 1 host families are less likely to offer Half Board accommodation than hosts further out.
Life in London is fast paced and Londoners can be very busy people. As a general rule you will find that the further out you are prepared to travel the more time your hosts will have to spend with you and the better your "home from home" experience will tend to be.
The majority of our host families are in zones 2-4 north, south, east and west London in mainly residential areas. In these areas you are more likely to find a more typical family environment (mum, dad and children). If you are choosing your homestay for a "home from home" experience to improve your English and it is important to you to be integrated into a typical British family environment, then often it is better to apply to live with a host family a little further out. If your priority is to have a nice accommodation in a central London location and it is crucial that you live in central London then be conscious that your hosts may have less time to spend with you.
"Home from Home" or a central London location?
You are advised to think carefully about your priorities before you submit your homestay application to us. Is your priority a "home from home" experience or is it to be in central London? If it is both then again you are advised to book early as these homestay are always booked early! It is always very helpful to us if you can explain your priorities to us at application stages. This will help us when shortlisting host families to suggest for you. You can do this on the application form itself.
When booking your homestay, remember that London is a large city but it does have an excellent transport system. Many international students underestimate how good our transport network is if they have not been here previously.
What is the difference between the Rail and the Tube?
There is a difference between the rail and tube (underground) in London. It can actually take longer to get to central London from some zone 3 locations than some zone 4 locations. Choosing your homestay based on zone alone therefore there is not always the best way choose your accommodation! There are some great locations in zone 4 on the tube that will get you to central London in 30 minutes. For example, areas in north east London such as Woodford, South Woodford, Wanstead, Snaresbrook and Gants Hill are all in zone 4 on the central line. These are great areas from which you can be in Holborn in 30 minutes on the Central line and it is a direct journey. Similarly, areas (underground) such as Wembley Central, Wembley Park, Northwick Park, Kingsbury in North West London (zone 4) will get you into central London in similar timescales with few changes needed.
If you need advice on which zone/location will be best for your stay in London then do not hesitate to ask our advice. At HFS London we are all Londoners – we know our city inside out and will happily advise you on making the best choices for you. Once again, the more we understand about your priorities the better we are able to match you to one of our host families.
How to Book Your London Homestay?
If you wish to apply for a host family through HFS London then make sure that you have read our how it works page and prices pages first.
When you are know what you wish to apply for start the process by completing our online application form. On receipt you will be contacted by one of the HFS London team. We will send you a shortlist of host family profiles. The profiles will contain photos of the homestay accommodation as well as factual information about the host family. You will be asked to choose your preferred host family(ies) and will then the proceed to contact the host(s) about you.
You will only be required to pay once you are happy with the host family we are proposing to you and when we have confirmed with the host that they are available on the dates you require. Once payment is received you will be send a booking confirmation letter and we will ask you to contact your host family to make introductions and confirm your arrival details.
We hope the above information is useful to you and look forward to hearing from you.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if anything needs further clarification!

The Trails of Oct. 12, 2018 (Feat. Missed Trials of Oct. 5)
October 16, 2018 Jenny OhAlbum Review, The Missed Trials
Helsott Enslaves In Their Latest Conquest
We trot away from the blood stained battle fields and sail on to the shores of the Mediterranean! Helsott are hungry for new territories and aren't afraid to experiment different methods in this new conquest. Slaves and Gods turns the page on to a new horizon, a new set of new allies and a butt load of adventure! How will this sequel end?
The So-Calian Vikings don't waste any time when it comes to riling up their legion with the title track "Slaves and Gods" which features Dr. Leif Kjonnsfleis from TrollfesT on guitars and Björn Friedrichsen on bass duties for most tracks. Eric Dow unleashes his ferocious growls that will fill their enemies with terror and replenish his army with adrenaline. That was only the first track by the way, "The Coward's Curse" features some clean baritone vocals with an underlying resonance of growls.
"Winter Smells Like Death" has never sounded so sweet because this beast has the perfect mix of brutality and softness, and is sure to lure you to the other side of the veil. Another track that has this nice and rough fusion is "Return Hyperborea" and "Honour Thy Valkyrie" which gives you a predominant dosage of growls but also has Stephanie Robinson's melodic vocals to sweeten this deal. For those that want their metal straight to the point then take a shot of the fiery "Whiskey Breath" and because we don't want any damn chasers we're going right in to the rabid "Trollskald."
No one said raiding would be clean and easy, and so Helsott commemorate their fallen comrades with the honorable ode "Eye of the Past." Look, homesickness is just as deadly too man! Some of us can't live without our crap shacks and dysfunctional people and mundane routines. Have you ever heard a badass folk metal cover of the wanderlust song "Running Down A Dream?" You will now! Helsott do such a superb job in adding a more wonder and make this track a little more wild and hungry to explore.
Helsott outdid themselves. They came, they slaughtered and CONQUERED. Some bands struggle to produce an incredible follow up album but not them. But you see, the quintet is not some band, they are Helsott! They have just begun. Grab your battle helmet and axes and listen to the album on Spotify, and get your copy here. And don't forget to read about our past raids with them here!
6/6, Victory Is Theirs!
Terrorizer Are Unstoppable With Their Latest 'Attack'
These legendary gents are back with their first album in six years titled Caustic Attack which was released through The End Records. Warning! They have a bone to pick with everything that's fucked up in the world. What better way to deal with stuff then blasting some death metal from the OG's in Terrorizer? That's exactly what we did and what you will do after you lend this album your ears.
We ride the rogue wave and will experience some serious "Turbulence," and if that wasn't enough to blow you away, "Invasion" and "Infiltration" certainly live up to their names and will pillage your brain. "Crisis" has a great intro riff from Lee Harrison who is soon joined by Pete Sandoval's legendary machine gun tempo! Another track that showcases the legendary drummer's chops is "Sharp Knives," the title track, and "Wasteland" where he gives us a grand finale."Terror Cycles" shines the spotlight around to the trio and we have an earful from Sam Molina's bass slapping before Harrison has a moment of his own. Shine on my dudes!
"The Downtrodden" will make your blood boil just like a slow burning fire, while "Poison Gas Tsunami" and "Failed Assassin" are sure to become pit favorites. Terrorizer are back and stronger than ever, if anyone needs to see how perseverance and brutality looks like its these guys. Caustic Attack has the ability to make fans thrash not just because this is a great album but because it was worth the wait and Terrorizer continues to stand the test of time. Listen to the album on Spotify and get your copy in any major platform such as here!
6/6, Ruthless
Missed Trials: Oct. 5
We Love Behemoth At Their 'Darkest'
This highly anticipated album may have made its way out of the depths of the Metal Blade Records vault while we were busy having chugging contests but it did not go unheard in the Ugh Metal fortress. Much like everyone, yours truly couldn't wait to hear I Loved You At Your Darkest not just because this was the closest thing anyone would say those words to me because it was highly anticipated, I feel that I left that bit out. Behemoth mentioned a while back that they would add a children's choir and that's exactly what they did, what better way to set the mood for the hellsih ride we've been dying to ride for some time.
The first two tracks, "Wolves Ov Siberia" and "God=Dog," are the singles the metallers have teased us with for the past year, and they are just as bitchin' once you hear the studio version, but that's a no brainer. On to the meat! The quartet fuel the theatrical elements in "Ecclesia Diabolica Catolica" and "Bartzabel" by slipping in some clean baritone vocals, but they also throw in some different elements such as acoustic guitar strings (in "Ecclesia…" and "Havohej Pantocrator"), and a bit of cinematic instrumentals, which they all work as great as you can imagine. "Angelvs XIII" and "Sabbath Mater" will be highly appreciated by those that like the fast paced brutality Behemoth do so great and will certainly become a favorite, "We Are the Next 1000 Years" drips with an ancient elusive fury. It may be a slow burner but it sure is eager to slowly seep it's dark magick in to you. This new installment does not disappoint and made the wait well worth it.
ILYAYD was a much needed breath of fresh air from the relatively tamer The Satanist (What? You wanna @ lil ol' me? ;p), this new album has a bubbling tar black bitterness that had been stewing for some time and finally released its calamities on to the world. This record may not have the ferocious growls and savage brutality that attracted us to Behemoth way back when BUT that's not what makes their brand of metal metal, it's their willingness to evolve and experiment which is a vital component that fuels a band's individuality.
This installment not only serenades our demons but it also plays with them whereas The Satanist just serenaded us till it became old, well to yours truly anyway. What can I say? I am one fickle fiend who needs some darkness and chaos but know that I still love you at your darkest especially if you don't agree with moi…BUT only on Fridays. Look, let's not fight right now baby, and just listen to the album… assuming you are one of the last two people on Earth who haven't had the chance to do so. And when you do, get your copy here, and don't get your panties in a bunch. 😉 And see what we thought about them when they opened for Slayer and in the site's infancy!
5/ 6, I still love this 😉
Author & Punisher Takes Us In To Uncharted Territory
Local one-man industrial machine and Club Hemlock darling Author & Punisher lead us into uncharted territory. This new installment will take you deep into this gnarled holographic rabbit hole called Beastland which was released via Relapse Records. This album is ready to swallow up anyone who dares to sit back and connect themselves in to The Matrix or listen to its distorted hymns, whatever tickles your fancy.
"Pharmacide" trots carefully as it distributes a calculated dosage of audible sedatives to ease you in and so that you can open your mind to this cyber wonderland. There's no turning back especially when you hear brain child Tristan Shone's screams pierce the mechanized veil in "Nihil Strength." "The Speaker is Systematically Blown" expresses a unique type of anguish that only one who has lost their speakers and/or headphones would know. It cuts deep and it quickly became yours truly's favorite track, #ripheadphones.
"Nazarene" has a nice cinematic feel to it and would be a great track to play when you are facing a bit of an uphill battle. If you are part of Team No Sleep AND you want a great song to fit in your sleep deprivation induced Lynchian hallucinations, "Night Terror" will be perfect. Beastland is some kind of experimental monster that's ready to tell its story to those who listen. Beneath its experimental exterior it is waiting to show you a deeper and darker level of own doing, too deep? Sorry I went in too deep into the The Matrix man and as a loyal member of Team No Sleep, well you get it. You can listen to the whole album on Spotify and see what I mean! And if you are in sync with it, get your copy here.
4/6, Would visit again

Ugh Metal: Not Another Metal Content © Jenny Oh & Chuggo the Klown
Designed and Developed by sRock


Much against my will, I occasionally will cook meat dishes because all my children now eat meat.
Used the recipe from Canadian Living.
I make Pulled Pork quite often and end up with tonnes of left over Pulled Pork; there are only so many Pulled Pork Sandwiches Luke can consume! I was delighted when this recipe for Easy as Tamale Pie from Kitchen Meets Girl came through Ay Sontespli's Kitchen !
I used to make a Tamale Pie from a recipe that I found in one of those Canadian Living Mini Cookbooks that, for a limited time, you used to be able to get when you filled up at Petro Can…I have long since lost the cookbook, to my dismay; I have tried a few times to make Tamale Pie from memory which meh, sort of worked? Anyway, I do think my problem has been solved with the discovery of this recipe.
Lightly grease a 9″x9″ pan; set aside.
In a large bowl combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda.
In another bowl whisk together eggs, buttermilk and melted butter.
Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined, the batter may be lumpy.
While cornbread is baking, combine tomato sauce, Epicure's Poco Picante Mix, oregano, basil, parsley and cumin together in a small bowl or large measuring cup; set aside.
In another small mixing bowl combine shredded pork with Epicure's Poco Picante Mix; set aside.
Remove cornbread from oven after 20 minutes; it won't be quite set in the centre….that's okay.
With a fork, poke holes all over the top of the cornbread.
Pour tomato sauce mixture over crust.
Evenly spread shredded pork over tomato sauce topped crust.
Remove foil and bake for another 5 minutes.
Remove from oven, top with chopped cilantro or chopped green onions and allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
* if you don't have Buttermilk on hand, pour 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice into a measuring cup then add enough milk to measure 1 1/2 cups; let sit for 10 minutes.
Alright so you made that roast beef, loads of mashed potatoes and now you have heaps of leftovers, right? I offer you a wonderful solution:Paula Deen's Shepherd Pie with Leftover Roast Beef found over at Food.com. I made a few changes…as I am known to do, so I have listed how I made it. My husband was thrilled that I even presented him with a lil serving of Ketchup to go with his portion. This Shepherd Pie reminded me of an Aussie Meat Pie which also begs for a good dollop of Ketchup.
This Shepherd Pie is different from all the ones I have seen; it uses mashed potatoes for the "crust" and has a biscuit topping! I don't EVER purchase Bisquick Baking Mix but a few years ago I realized that someone MUST have posted home made versions of the stuff; I was right. I make up a batch of biscuit mix now and again and keep it in the fridge for when I am feeling particularly lazy and don't want to make 'em from scratch.
I poured the goopy Biscuit dough on top of the meat filling as directed in the recipe but my son Ryan said next time I should scoop it on in mounds. I think he might be on to something with that suggestion.
Lightly spray a 9x9inch square pan with vegetable oil spray.
In a large skillet over med-high heat sauté onion in olive oil.
Add minced garlic and continue sautéing for another couple of minutes.
Add gravy and heat to boiling; cook for 1 – 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper; set aside.
Layer mashed potatoes halfway up the sides of prepared baking dish.
Spread beef mixture over mashed potatoes.
Next, add frozen sweet peas and diced carrots.
Combine biscuit topping mix with enough milk to make a goopy dough.
Scoop biscuit dough and drop in mounds onto vegetable layer.
Bake in preheated 350F oven for 35 – 45 minutes or until top is golden brown.
I honestly don't remember how I came across this recipe? What could I possibly have been googling? Well, I had pork chops in the fridge, that I know for sure. But cranberries? It must have been a fluke that I had some tucked away in the freezer? It went over well with the meat eaters and it smelled pretty good while it was cooking. At any rate, I found this recipe for Pork Chop Saute with Cranberries over at Eating Well. Head over there for a peek at all their great recipes!
Easy enough to pull together for a meal on a busy week night.
Mix thyme and 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl.
Sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with thyme mixture.
Stir until well blended the cranberry juice and honey in a 1-cup Pyrex measuring cup.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
Add the pork chops and cook until browned on both sides, 2 – 3 minutes on each side.
Push the chops to one side of the pan, add onion to the empty half of the pan and cook, stirring, until the onion is soft and beginning to brown, about 1 – 2 minutes.
Pour half the juice mixture into the pan.
Reduce heat to medium and cook, turning the chops occasionally, until cooked through 2 – 4 minutes.
Transfer the chops to a serving plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
Add the remaining juice mixture to the pan.
Increase heat to high and cook until the mixture reduces to form a syrupy sauce, about 2 minutes.
Spoon sauce over the chops.
With cooler temperatures prevailing it's time to haul out the slow cooker for some comforting stews; and don't forget to make yummy bread to go with it: Dinner Rolls,Biscuits, Dumplings or pick up some Multigrain Rolls from the grocery store on the way home from work.
For ease of cleaning I like to spray the inside of the crock pot with vegetable oil spray.
In 4.5-6litre Slow Cooker mix together beef, potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, garlic, beef stock, tomato paste, bay leaf and Worcestershire sauce.
Cover and cook on LOW for 10 – 12 hours (or on HIGH for 5 to 6 hours) or until beef and vegetables are tender.
30 – 60 minutes before serving, add frozen peas, salt and pepper.
Whisk corn starch with a bit of water to make a paste; stir into stew.
Cover and cook for another 10 – 15 minutes.


Session chairs typically have three responsibilities: finding discussants for the papers in the session (or deciding that no discussants are necessary), ensuring that papers are circulated to discussants and other session participants in a timely fashion, and keeping the session running on time.
Finding discussants. Sessions in different fields often run in different ways. Some sessions have assigned discussants; others do not. If your session organizer has made arrangements directly with you regarding discussants, etc, for your session, please refer to your session organizer's outline. If discussants have not been assigned to your session, you are welcome to line up discussants if you wish. A list of possible discussants is available at http://economics.ca/2017/discussants.php If your session does not have discussants, then more time can be allocated to the presentation of the papers in the session and to questions/discussion from the floor.
Ensuring papers are circulated in a timely fashion. Every person who has a paper accepted for the CEA meetings agrees to circulate their paper to other participants in their session, and their discussant, at least two weeks prior to the beginning of the conference. They are also warned that failure to do so may lead to their paper being withdrawn from the program. Please remind presenters of their responsibilities to their discussants. If, in your opinion, a presenter should be withdrawn from the program because they have not circulated their paper on time, please inform the Program Assistant at cea.conference@gmail.com.
Note that you can find the emails of the authors and discussants in your session by logging into your CEA account at my.economics.ca, going to "Conference Schedule" on the left hand column, and clicking on the appropriate session, or author/discussants name.
Keeping the session running on time. Chairs have some latitude in allocating time but as a default, for a typical 3-paper session, each presenter should be given 18 minutes for the presentation, followed by 5 minutes for the formal discussant, with the remaining time for audience comments and questions. Sessions without formal discussants should aim for 20 minute presentations with the remaining time for audience comments and questions. However you choose to allocate time in your session, please ensure that time is allocated to individual paper presentations and paper discussions in an equal and fair manner, and that papers should be delivered in the sequence in which they appear in the conference program. For sessions with more papers, it is particularly important that the chair make clear to presenters and discussants what the time allocations are.
The session chair will keep time and will signal to the presenters how much time is left at appropriate points. (See the signal paddles below.) If a speaker extends a presentation for more than 2 minutes past the mark, the chair is allowed to cut off a speaker and proceed to the discussant or next presentation.
Courtesy of William Robson of the C.D. Howe Institute, below are images of the two sides of two paddles (paper glued on signboard) that you may use if you wish.
Bring their presentation on a memory key, in addition to having sent it to their session chair.
A number of computer-literate students will patrol the conference areas to act as first line support. You should arrange to arrive at the conference room well in advance yourself in order to make sure that everything is ready for the conference to begin on time and run smoothly.


Eating Good… and Moving Like We Should. A school and community program that aims to prevent and reduce obesity in the Mississippi Delta. The incidence of obesity in the Mississippi Delta is dramatically higher than the national average. The purpose of this project is to combine the best practices of several obesity intervention programs to create a successful prevention and treatment program for obesity in the Mississippi Delta.
Food insecurity has worsened in the US as the poverty rate increased and government assistances reduced. There is limited research whether individual financial management or financial status other than income relates to food insecurity and hunger. Using secondary data of nation-wide household samples, we examine how household assets and debts are associated with food insecurity. Further, we examine how fluctuations in financial environment for households such as market performance and consumer credit regulations influence household food insecurity. Preliminary findings suggest financial strain measured based on cash reserves and financial wealth significantly increases food insecurity.
In the Department of Nutrition and Hospitality Management, our faculty, staff, and students are committed to making a different in the lives of those within our Lafayette-Oxford-University and Mississippi communities. Many of our courses and student organizations involve faculty and students volunteering with local organizations the Oxford Food Pantry, MANNA, Meals on Wheels, More than a Meal, Adopt-a-Basket, the Boys and Girls Club, and many more.
The students in Quantity Food Production and Service (NHM 462) and the accompanying Quantity Food Production and Service Lab (NHM 472) work with local farmers to supply fresh produce for preparing meals for guests in the department's student-run restaurant, Lenoir Dining.
Many of our faculty and staff members sit on several university and local boards to tie in educational facets of the department and link the community with our increasing awareness and efforts in cultivating new and lasting partnerships.

The Glacier Valley Rotary Club's "Pillars of America" featured speaker this week was Paralympic Skier and Author Josh Sundquist, who competed in the 2006 Paralympics in Torino Italy and penned a national bestseller. In an interview with KINY's Sharon Gaiptman, he related a little bit of his background.
"I started having pain in my leg and after a series of medical tests I was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer called Ewing's Sarcoma in my left leg. So I had a fifty percent chance to live, I started chemotherapy and after a few months the tumor in my leg was covering my whole femur from my knee to my hip and so the best chance I had to live was for my leg to be amputated from the hip.
When I was sixteen I started racing competitively and immediately also just sort of fell in love with that and you know it was kind of a thing where I hadn't really been able to do competitive sports as a kid you know so I was like 'here's this thing I can do.' The big appeal of it to me was that it was something I could do as well or as fast with one leg as anyone could do with two legs.
So I moved out to Colorado my senior year of high school, I graduated early and just started racing and training full time and so I did that it took about six seasons and then in 2006 I was named to the Paralympics team and got to race in Torino Italy.
It never occurred to me that I had a story to tell and so my initial speeches had nothing to do with me it was like 'here's the one two three step process for setting goals' or whatever, and then gradually over time I realized that the only time anyone was paying attention was when I was talking about stories from my life and my experiences, and so over time I realized that I do have an interesting story to tell people. I found through my speeches and such that people really connected with my story and it gave them hope in their circumstances and so I had the opportunity to write a book about my life called "Just Don't Fall" so that came out in 2010, a national bestseller in hardcover which is pretty cool, and it's probably the thing I'm most proud of is the book."

The Parthenon is visible from every corner in Plaka, creating a nostalgic atmosphere.
A walk around Plaka reveals remains of ancient monuments, as and other neoclassical buildings of unique architecture.
Nowadays, Plaka has become a hot spot for Greeks and tourists as it has many shops, restaurants, taverns and bars.

Campaign Urges Bezos, Musk and More to Invest in Mental Health of Survivors of Terrorism, Violence and Genocide
Creative 60 Add to collection
Campaign created by BBH London for the Jiyan Foundation for Human Rights coincides with Human Rights Day
On December 10, 2021, Human Rights Day, the Jiyan Foundation for Human Rights will launch #FAOCEO, a single day LA-based mobile billboard campaign urging the world's top CEOs and the leadership of companies that offer health services and support to invest in the mental well-being of survivors of terrorism, domestic violence, war, and genocide living in Kurdistan-Iraq, Iraq, and Syria.
The #FAOCEO campaign, created by advertising agency BBH London for the Jiyan Foundation, employs an interactive mobile billboard with QR codes that send direct messages to specific top executives, including Jeff Bezos (Amazon), Elon Musk (Tesla), Bill Gates, Cece Morken (Headspace), Brian Ternan (Health Net), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), and Sundar Pichai (Alphabet).
The goal of the campaign is not only to grab the CEO and their company's attention, but also to enlist the general public in asking the corporate leadership of these companies to expand their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) programs to include mental health support for people living in this region of the world.
"There are millions of people living in Kurdistan-Iraq, Iraq, and Syria who are in desperate need of mental and health care support, and the need keeps growing," said Jiyan Foundation Head of Public Affairs Joshua Governale. "The conflicts in the region that have been inflicted on them by civil war, terrorism, and outside powers has not only destabilized their communities but also their mental wellbeing leaving many of them at risk of radicalization. The international community, including corporates who are at the forefront of social justices, should commit to providing long-term resources for them."
"The issues Jiyan Foundation face are real. They're having to close down treatment centers, which means those who desperately need help don't get it. We needed to do something immediately," said Oliver Short and Jennifer Ashton, Creatives at BBH London. "Rather than letting an email get lost in an inbox, we wanted to go direct to the world's top CEOs. With a public letter that asks for their help. Our roaming billboard acts like a Trojan horse, hijacking corporate-speak, and these CEOs' names, to get their attention (or that of their employees). If it sparks a conversation, that leads to a partnership, then Jiyan can keep doing their life-saving work."
The collaboration between Jiyan Foundation for Human Rights and BHH London that resulted in the #FAOCEO campaign was made possible by The International Exchange (TIE), a world-leading international leadership program that connects commercial businesses with non-commercial organizations to apply their skills and expertise to solving real-life challenges that affect the world and its poorest and most vulnerable communities.
TIE Founder and CEO Philippa White added: "TIE is thrilled to be working with both BBH and the Jiyan Foundation again. An opportunity for BBH, through the TIE leadership program, to offer diverse challenges to their employees, pushing them in new ways, whilst having the chance to lend their skills to communities that need them most. It was hugely rewarding for everyone involved to support the Jiyan Foundation and the important work they do in Syria and Iraq. To change the world we need the private and third sectors to come together - and TIE's mission is to make that possible, whilst ensuring everyone comes out stronger as a result. Creative agencies are in a huge position of power and responsibility to lend their creative minds to help solve some of the world's biggest challenges, and we hope that the success of this unique partnership will inspire other businesses to join TIE in developing their leaders. Better people, better companies, better world."
How it works: The 12-foot three-panel digital mobile billboard will feature unique QR codes for each CEO that once scanned will send viewers to a webpage containing Jiyan Foundation's message to each of them. Once on the webpage, viewers will be prompted to share the message on their social media channel with the hashtag # FAOCEO.
To receive the copy of the CEO letters, please contact pr@jiyan.org.
The Route: The mobile billboard will start its route at the SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne at 7 a.m. PT, then continue to Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Headspace, Healthnet, and then will proceed to Santa Monica, Venice, followed by Mid-city, Brookside, and Hollywood before doing the loop again. The billboard will continue on the loop until 3 p.m. PT.

Sam Grigorian was born in 1957 in Yerevan, Armenia. From a young age, he displayed a high interest in art, specifically Dada.
In the 1980s, his artistic style expanded as he began painting large-scale, abstract expressionist pictures. The bigger the work, the more it resembled a map or topography. Color enters subtly as a decorative arrangement, a supporting role, making the viewer focus on the material of the painting.
In 1992, Grigorian changed his environment by moving to Germany, maturing his artistic style. He began to make decollages, paper works using a technique he created himself, and assemblages using books and other materials. Paper became his favored artistic medium. The multiple layers of paper give more texture and depth to the artwork. He scrapes away some areas of the layering, uncovering the hidden material underneath. He merges the traditional elements of his former and present homes, symbolically connecting the east and west.
Grigorian works and lives in Berlin, Germany. His works are available in private and public collections in Europe, Australia, and USA.

I'll admit (with shame) that before I went to Rome, I thought that the city must be overrated. You hear so often from people who rave about this city and gush about how much they love it. After visiting Rome, I've become one of those people. The city is really something else with beautiful architecture and sights on every corner. Even if you're wandering down a random street trying to find the next point of interest, you'll come across a stunning building or fountain that you can admire. You definitely won't be complaining that there's a lack of things to see and do. And for a money-conscious traveler like me, I especially liked that there was a lot that you could see and do for free. Here's part one of a list of some of the things I enjoyed for free in Rome!
One of my favourite things to do whether I'm traveling or not is people watching. I think people are fascinating creatures! And in Rome, you can do this at Piazza Navona, one of Rome's most famous squares. You'll be in the company of some beautiful fountains.
One bonus at Piazza Navona is the Tartufo from Tre Scalini (a restaurant found at this square). Now, this decadent chocolate ice cream truffle is not free at €10, but if you share it with a few friends it's nearly free! You might also get to have a friendly chat with the gentleman who prepared our Tartufo for us. We got our Tartufo to go and enjoyed it on a bench in the square.
The Pantheon is an amazing structure, and I was so surprised that entry was free! On entering it, you'll walk between some towering columns before you walk through a massive bronze door to get into the building. Once inside, my eyes were immediately drawn to the magnificent dome, with one single hole in the middle that light flooded in through. This is the same dome that Brunelleschi studied before he built the dome at the Florence Cathedral. Also found in the Pantheon is the tombs of a number of famous Italians, such as the artist Raphael.
Trevi Fountain, yet another famous attraction in Rome and for good reason! It stands out amongst the many fountains you'll find in the city at over 25 metres high and close to 50 meters wide. The detailing on this fountain is amazing, and I was surprised at how fresh and new the fountain looked. On doing some research, I learned that the fashion powerhouse Fendi had sponsored a recent restoration of the fountain that was just completed in 2015.
You can throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain if you so choose. I realize this makes it not free, but the coins are collected and donated to a charity. Which means that you are doing a good deed!
This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I don't really get the Spanish Steps. I visited and sat on the steps to try to understand why this was such a huge attraction in Rome but I just didn't quite get it. Maybe it is more beautiful when the flowers are in bloom, but I just found it overly crowded.
What I did find amusing in hindsight (and let's be real - really annoying at the time) were the many rose scammers at the Spanish Steps. As you are are enjoying these steps (or pondering their popularity if you're like me), you will very likely be pestered by men trying to give you roses. And I'm not talking about rose-giving in the romantic sort of way. I'm talking about the persistent, I'm going to try to put it in your pocket anyway even though you've said no to me 8 times sort of way. Don't give in to their persistent ways though. If you do accept a rose from them, they'll ask you for money! I found an amusing blog post about this scam here by the way, if anyone is interested.
Where the Mouth of Truth originates from seems to be a mystery. It is believed that it might have been a drain cover but no one knows for sure. If you've watched Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck's Roman Holiday, you'll be familiar with the Mouth of Truth. Legend has it that if you put your hand in its mouth and tell a lie, your hand will get bitten off. Of course, this doesn't really happen in real life, but you can still take a photo here. To be honest, I wouldn't go out of my way to see it unless you are a fan of the movie and really want to get a photo with it. But if you are in the area, it could be a quick, fun photo op. There is normally a line of tourists waiting to get their photo taken with the Mouth of Truth, but it moves by pretty quickly.
Via dei Fori Imperiali is a street that runs by the Colosseum and then through a number of famous ruins within Rome like the Forum of Augustus and the Trajan Forum. At night you can get some great pictures of the ruins. The lights casts beautiful shadows and somehow manages to make the ruins look even more beautiful! When I was there, there was a busker performing which really added to the ambience.
Stay tuned for part 2 of this list of free things you can do in Rome!
I love traveling, but travel less than I would like. When I'm not traveling, you can find me blogging about my travels, finding something new to learn, and spending too much time on YouTube!

Economy / Taxes
Policy Choices and "Our Divided City"
By Patrick Tuohey on Feb 8, 2016
In a recent documentary, "Our Divided City," KCPT's Michael Price goes to great length to detail the many problems facing Kansas City's urban core. Those problems include crime, blight, and a lack of basic city services. Regarding the economic incentives to developers that go mostly to the wealthy parts of town, something Show-Me discussed in an essay, Mayor Sly James says, [remarks begin at 47:41]
I spend a lot of time talking to developers and I spend a lot of time talking to developers trying to get them to build east of Troost [Avenue]. If they don't want to do it, you can incentivize them all day long. What they look at is, "How do I get a return on investment?"
Developers can't be faulted for wanting to earn a buck, and investment on the east side of town can carry additional risks. That is exactly why governments adopted tax increment financing, or TIF, to alleviate some fo the risk that investors face. But that policy is made meaningless if everyone gets TIF, and if they get it in the nice parts of town. Of course a developer would not take on a large risk developing east of Troost when the city will subsidize a low-risk development west of Troost. The solution is to stop incentivizing the wealthy western part of the city, and save incentives for where they were actually intended.
Later in the film, Mayor James gets defensive when asked if it isn't time to take action. He says, [53:17]
Everybody says action. Nobody has an answer. If anybody had an answer to that question you don't think it would already be being used? You know, people seem to think that this is somehow a political issue. This is a citywide societal problem and the city and society has to address it; not just people in public office. That's crazy. If that were the case it would have been done by now. Certainly I would have done it by now if I had that power and authority but I don't even have the authority to keep guns out of the hands of 19 year olds.
Certainly the Mayor is correct that the problems faced in Kansas City are not unique to us. These problems plague urban areas all over the country, and they indeed stem from significant systemic issues of poverty, education, and racism. But that is not to say that the Mayor has no "power or authority," or that expecting political solutions from our political leaders is "crazy." It is not.
The Mayor does have the "power and authority," for example, to tear down the 875 vacant and "dangerous" homes that litter the east side as featured in the documentary. He has the "power and authority" to beef up spending on code enforcement. Instead, he and the City Council have chosen policies that spend money on downtown streetcars and luxury apartments and hotels.
Frankly, if anyone lacks "power and authority," it is the people on the east side of town who can't afford to hire the high-priced development attorneys needed to get the ear of policymakers.
