A gruelling tale of mythical grandeur
An eerie yet gorgeous tapestry of lingering close-ups; parallels, cuts and slow-motion photography, Lars Von Trier's Antichrist is a gruelling tale of mythical grandeur: a bizarre yet beautiful film chock full of sadism and shagging, Satanic dogma and similes. Most of which, I don't understand. So you'll be pleased to know that I have no intention of harping on about the director's bent meditation on gender, nature, genocide, motherhood, misogyny and astronomy. I find all that stuff interesting, don't get me wrong, but when things get Freudian I'm way out of my league. Therefore, I'll stick to what I know.
Albeit seething with emotion, Antichrist refuses to adhere to some of the general "rules" of the classical Hollywood narrative, meaning it lacks clarity, unity and closure. For example, there're only two characters, both of which remain nameless and have indefinite; pasts, motives and are somewhat difficult to identify with. The film rejects conventional morality. It is a difficult and uncomfortable experience that'll unnerve even the most robust of film fans. So if you like your films light, clear and conservative, stay away. If, however, you're a fan of, say, Nicholas Roeg's Don't Look Now, director David Lynch or you just dig a bit of alternative cinema, then brace yourself for a hugely demanding tableau that film critic Anita Singh of the Sunday Telegraph dubbed "the most shocking film in the history of the Cannes Film Festival." Willem Dafoe plays "he", a therapist and husband to "she" (Charlotte Gainsbourg), the female half of the cast whose line of work we never really learn. After a quite miraculous opening montage that juxtaposes the couple making love with the accidental death of their child, the embedded tale follows the pair as they flee to "Eden", their isolated cabin in the woods, where "he" attempts to aid a severely grief stricken "she" through her bereavement.
Book-ended by a masterfully conceived prologue and epilogue and split into four focal chapters entitled "Grief", "Pain", "Despair" and "The Three Beggars" (don't ask), the film takes on a ghostlike tone from the outset as the boundaries between the real and surreal become blurred. Alas, things get weird, edgy and very, very nasty. The sheer mass and rate of dense motifs and metaphors at hand regarding sex, Freud, the devil and the soul is a little overwhelming. Not to mention the force and intensity of both Dafoe and Gainsbourg's turns in addition to the film's strong, emotional undercurrent.
In spite of large and sustained periods of quite brilliant film-making, Antichrist contains some of the most violent and deplorable images ever committed to celluloid. For the ladies there's self mutilation. For the gents there's…I, I, I can't even say it. Put it this way, it ain't good lads…Anyway, add to the unthinkable gore a whole host of outlandish set-ups, half a dozen scenes of a sexual nature and one or two jolts in tone and you'll be scared silly. Remember- sometimes in cinema, you fear what you don't understand, especially when the camera is an unflinching eye inside the head of a disturbed, Danish poet. Lars Von Trier is an excellent filmmaker, but even his biggest fans will find it hard to swallow this, never mind stomach it.
Dedicated to the memory of legendary soviet filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky, Antichrist is truly as haunting, delicate and poetic a film as you're ever bound to see. Though shrouded in scenes of unspeakable cruelty, the film eludes to the work of Tarkovsky in a big way: Von Trier's warped Adam and Eve parable is a moody, metaphysical affair cloaked in hypnotic, dreamlike imagery that calls to mind the likes of Mirror, Solaris and the brilliant Stalker. The trancelike photography; sound, score, and editing demonstrate a predilection for atmospheric, art-theatre sensibility. Tarkovsky would have loved it. This, after all, is a film that simply has to be seen to be believed. Not necessarily for its aesthetic grandeur, gore or technique, but for its harrowing portrayal of a soul in torment.
What's it all about? Who cares?! Antichrist is an unusual, atmospheric horror film that's guaranteed to provoke. The performances are honest and strong, the aesthetics are bold, the direction is brilliant and the outcome is something that is ultimately hard to come by these days: authentic film-making.

January 30, 2017 January 23, 2021 mainstreamtj Child protection, Judiciary Court Craft Series, TJ for the Judiciary
Mainstream judges apply therapeutic jurisprudence in a child protection case
Guest bloggers Tali Gal and Dahlia Schilli-Jerichower explore how mainstream judges in a recent Israeli Supreme Court decision applied therapeutic jurisprudence principles by seeking to conduct the process in such a way as to maximise the wellbeing of the parties…
A child protection ruling given by the Israeli Supreme Court (Justices A. Rubinstein, A. Fogelman D. Barak-Erez) in October 2016, gives us an insight into how therapeutic jurisprudence (TJ) principles are seeping into the Israeli judicial systems.
This appeal was filed against the ruling given by the Tel Aviv District Court, by a mother whose little girl was declared as a "child at risk" and removed from her home.
The mother is a single parent of two children, one of them – a little boy – was on the autistic spectrum. She began receiving help from social services in various matters back in 2011, which included integrating her two children into a boarding school for a while.
In her appeal, she claimed that she is a good, devoted and functioning mother, and therefore drastic measures such as removing her daughter from her home was wrongful and would create more damage than good.
When giving their ruling, the judges showed a high level of sensitivity and compassion while recognizing the complex human aspects involved in this dilemma.
Their ruling reflects how TJ principles and ideas can be successfully integrated into complex judicial decisions.
The judges recognized the existence of emotions, suffering and distress of the mother and her daughter and expressed empathy with them.
The judges also explicitly considered the ramifications of their ruling on the mother and daughter's chances of building a strong relationship in the future.
Approaching the litigants themselves, the judges addressed the major trust issues between the mother and the welfare system and encouraged the parties to work together and leave behind any previous tensions and conflicts. By doing so, the judges present the possibility that decision making with regard to child protection may involve family members, and not only professionals.
By providing explicit instructions and encouragement to the parties with regard to their relationship, the court's ruling demonstrated that applying TJ practices in legal procedures can turn such encounters into therapeutic opportunities. By contrast, lack of such practices could result with an anti-therapeutic outcome while adding more tension to the already stressed child and mother.
Although the final ruling did not overturn the District Court ruling, it includes a "letter to the loser" (Wexler, 2014) and thus provides a compelling example of how powerful legal actors such as Supreme Court Justices can use TJ principles to make the legal encounter a more therapeutic one.
Child protection decisions are typically complex, painful and dramatic for children and families. Inducing TJ practices into child protection laws, procedures and practices may make them a little less so.
In our recent article Mainstreaming Therapeutic Jurisprudence In Family Law: The Israeli child protection law as a case study we considered the contribution of TJ to the theoretical development and practical advancement of reforms in child protection law, by presenting three dilemmas arising from The Israeli Youth Law (Care and Supervision)–1960 relating to its substance, procedures, and practice and integrating psycho-social findings into the legal discussion.
This article contributes to the slim literature connecting between TJ and child protection law (the leading examples are Barbara Babb, 1997; Susan Brooks, 1999; and Shelley Kierstead, 2012). Hopefully, it will promote the debate about ways to mainstreaming TJ in family law, so that we can see more use of TJ principles in court rulings around the globe.

Google bolsters marketing leadership with hire of former Calvin Klein CMO
By Katie Deighton-15 November 2019 23:02pm
Gulin-Merle departed PVH Corp last month
Marie Gulin-Merle, formerly the chief marketing officer of Calvin Klein, has resurfaced as the vice-president of global ads marketing at Google, which is currently bolstering the star talent on its marketing team.
Gulin-Merle will be responsible managing Google's global media spend, as well as setting the vision for Google's marketing business worldwide.
She has also been tasked with building and delivering a global marketing strategy for the company's ads business and its advertising products. Google has named her as a 'key partner' to its ads sales, product and engineering leadership.
Despite her fashion background, the marketer is no stranger to digital.
She took on the role of chief digital officer at Calvin Klein's parent company, PVH Corp, while still heading up marketing at the label, and was credited with transforming L'Oréal USA's approach to online innovation when she worked there as chief marketing officer from 2014 until 2018.
Gulin-Merle joins Google at the same time as Nick Drake, the former marketing boss of T-Mobile. Taking on the role of vice-president of global marketing, Drake also joined the tech giant this month.
The hires come as Google gradually pivots away from product marketing and towards the holistic lure of its overarching brand. This was recently demonstrated in its 'Here to Help' campaign, which rolled out across markets earlier this year.
This article is about: North America, Google, People On The Move, Career, Marketing, Brand
Google is an American multinational technology company providing Internet-related services such as search, online advertising, cloud computing, software and hardware.

"They were wanted by law for their complicity in a series of terror crimes including an attack on security establishments and civilian atrocities. They were involved in conspiring and executing many terror attacks in the area. Several terror crime cases were registered against both the terrorists," it added.

Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer's office hopes to sign a new contract with Insight Communications before the company is purchased by Time Warner Cable.
The three billion dollar sale won approval from the FCC last week and could close at any time. But Insight is still in talks over its contract to operate in Louisville. The talks have gone on for over a year, but stalled over whether Insight should be required to keep its call center in Louisville and provide free service to government buildings.
Insight is currently operating on the terms of its previous contract. Time Warner would inherit all of Insight's contracts and operations after the sale.
"I think it'd be premature to talk about what could happen. But we're pretty close to a deal. Both sides have been working in due diligence and I think we'll have a deal before the sale closes," says mayoral spokesman Chris Poynter.
Poynter says the city is not concerned that negotiations would be more difficult with the much larger Time Warner than they are with Insight.
Time Warner previously requested a temporary contract extension so the new owners could work on a renewal with the city.

A Letter to Sir John Soane
Joseph Gandy
ON ARCHITECTURE: AN EXCERPT FROM A LETTER TO SIR JOHN SOANE
"There is no branch of trade or manufacture in this country but requires the artist's aid and who so proper as the architect to do it, even the painter and sculptor in their highest departments and the whole of the arts and sciences are but decorations to the walls of a palace or church or house, and all should emanate from the architect's genius. Wren Jones Kent and others did this and led taste from the Gothic age to this moment of Grecian imitation. I believe you are the only one who has dared to go further and show that architecture is not an imitative but an inventive art, whose models must be formed in the mind, because there are none in nature."
Priv. Corr. III G.1 (16) 8-3-1816.
Joseph Gandy was an English artist, architect and architectural theorist who worked as Soane's draughtsman and creative partner.
With thanks to Bruce Boucher, director of Sir John Soane's Museum.

"The Dealer Playbook" podcast session 41 is here and your going to love this one!
In today's session team DPB is talking about getting more conversions from your website with the master Tim Paige.
Tim Paige is proud to be the Conversion Educator at LeadPages. An experienced marketer in all forms of media,
Tim spends his days speaking to the most successful marketers across multiple industries, and sharing his findings with business owners who want to increase their marketing results.
You may recognize Tim's voice from the dozens of webinars he has hosted at LeadPages or from LeadPages official podcast, ConversionCast. In his short time at LeadPages,
Here is a quick preview of our conversation with Tim Paige.
Traffic is not hard to get.
When you talk with a lot of dealers they are focused on "getting more traffic" to their website when in fact the primary focus should be converting more of the traffic you have now.
It is not hard to get more traffic. You can buy it and use many channels to boost your sites unique visitors, but if they are not opting in/converting to a lead, whats the point?
Tim reviews several proven strategies you can start doing on your site that will automatically increase your sites conversion rates.
A coupon is the worst way to generate a lead.
A coupon is a coupon. Everyone has them and in the end they provide really no value and don't solve any of your target customers problems.
Whats in it for me? That is all that is on your customers mind. What your store can do that solves their problem.
Tim dives into how you can use that to your advantage to generate more leads from your website.
Create a lead magnet.
A lead magnet is what you are going to offer your site visitors instead of coupon. Your lead magnet is resource that will help your target market solve a problem they are having.
Tim breaks down what a "Lead Magnet" is and gives several examples you can use right away.

It's because we're having so much fun. I wishwe've been talking about this for a couple episodes and now maybe putting together likea blooper real because there's just some funny stuff that goes on here. Butyou know what, super excited you've taken the time to listen into the show. Today's a doozy. You know we've had a couple episodes that have beenfocused on marketing, and that's for good reason. There's a lot of opportunityfor growth from a dealership perspective in the area of Communications and marketing and advertising, and so you'll notice kind of a trend here. We really want tohelp you, whatever your role is inside the dealership, to get the mostout of not only the money that you're spending but the results that come fromthe efforts or the campaigns that you have going on. So today we're superexcited to sit down with, you know, a friend of ours, Tim Page, from a company called lead pages. Will we ask him some really coolquestions that will help you get the most out of your website? Andbefore we give it all away, let's maybe just quickly jump into our sitdown with Tim page. Today. We are excited to be sitting down withsomebody who Robert and I have actually been following for quite some time. Iknow in traditional senses that sounds really creepy, but you know what was social mediaand all that kind of stuff, it's just not that creepy. Welisten to this gentleman's podcast, conversion cast podcast, which will encourage you tocheck out. He is the conversion educator for a company called lead pages,which has phenomenal software that helps increase conversions and opt ins for or from yourwebsite. WE'RE SITTING DOWN WITH MR TIM page. Tim thanks so much forbeing on the show with us. Thanks so much for having me, andI'm really genuinely concerned. Now, like I'm going to be looking over myshoulder and like out the window just to find out if you guys are therebehind me, following me, or I'll be like, you know, man, how's the new house purchase going? Just to like make it even creepyre, just ground one of your facebook I'll be. I'll be dressed in aI'll be wearing a shirt the same color of the shades and like one ofyour rooms blended in. It just took a turn for the worst and wejust started, and we did yes, started now. But you know what'ssuper grateful to have you on the show. I know you're busy, Dude.You know you got a lot of things going on. We were justtalking pre show how you did like two hundred webinars last year and you're alreadyyou're already blasting out of gates this year. So much going on, so muchmovement, it's cool to, you know, see what you're doing andsee how you're helping people, you know, increase conversions from their websites and getopt ins and all that kind of stuff, and that's really, Ithink, what we want to sit down and talk with you about today.You know, obviously in the in the space of car dealer websites and justdifferent things that car dealers are doing this day and age. I wanted toturn it over to you by asking what you're seeing just overall in general.Are Some of the common mistakes that that website, I guess you know WebMasters or people who have websites are making...
...when it comes to conversions, becauseI think everybody says, man, I got a website, that's all Ineed. Traffics going to start coming and once the traffic comes there just goingto automatically know what to do and then a lot of people, I find, get really discouraged at the lack of performance. So what, from yourvantage point really focusing on this stuff, are some of the mistakes that yousee people making on a regular basis? Yeah, it's a good question,and one of the first mistakes that that I find people make is when they'retrying to figure out how to get their website to get results. Their firstquestion is always how do I get traffic? You hit the nail on the headwhen you said that that's the question that I get asked time and timeagain. You know, every week I do a Webinar all about how togenerate more leads, and it's really amazing because we'll get halfway through the Webinarand people will go, well, this is great, but if my websiteis converting, how do I get traffic? And it's funny because traffic is notthat hard to come by. You know, you can buy traffic,you can spend time getting traffic to your website. It's actually fairly easy toget. But it's the conversion side of things that is more important to focuson, and that's one of the biggest mistakes that people make, is notfocusing on conversions. And with that said, you know, one thing that Ialways encourage you know, car dealership owners and marketers to focus on isactually your list growth. And I know that might seem kind of like alike Duh, you know, of course that's what we're trying to talk abouthere, but it's funny because, you know, we have this tendency asas sales people. You know I I spent twelve years in traditional sales environmentsand so I know what it's like to want to close right, I getthat. You know, we want to get people into our dealership to buycars. That's what we're trying to do. That's the goal. But nowadays,with technology the way that it is, it is so easy for people tojust make a decision by going let me check out your website. Price, okay, good. Let me check out their website. Price, okaygood, whereas if you can build a strong relationship with your potential customer,not only do you set yourself apart, whether it's through price or otherwise,but you also make a lifetime customer out of that person. So the lastthree cars that I bought came from the same dealership and these are not,you know, thousand dollar cars. You know, they're nice cars, andso if you if you kind of put things in that perspective, then focusingon growing your list would seem to be kind of the smartest move, becausethat allows you to have a way to communicate with your target audience time andtime again, day in and day out. So what mistakes do people make whenthey're trying to grow their less? Well, the first one would benot focusing on it. The second thing would be focusing all the attention onyou as the business. Okay, you always need to remember when people getin that new car or when people are driving that old that old beat uphooped either they're trying to get to to your dealership. The only radio stationtheir tune to is wifem, and I know that a lot of sales peoplehave heard that before. Right, what's in it for me? That's whatthey're always thinking about. They don't give a crap about you, they don'tgive a crap about your dealership, they don't give a crap about what's sospecial about you. What they care about is how you can solve their biggestproblems. And so if you tailor all of your messaging and all your marketingtowards getting them to opt into your list and it's solves a clear problem thatthey have, you're going to see a huge improvement in your opt in rateand because of that, all of your messaging after that will be so focusedon their problems that you will see a huge improvement in people coming in tobuy new cars. And so how do you do stuff like that? Well, let me say this. The the best way to generate a lade isnot to give out a coupon, and I know that that makes a fewpeople sad because it's so easy to do. Here's a coupon for five hundred dollarsoff your next car purchase, or whatever it is, but that's notthe best way to get somebody on to your list. Why is that?Well, first off, somebody doesn't know...
...you from the next car dealership overright. They don't know really who you are, they don't know what you'reall about, they don't know why they should buy from you, they don'tknow if you're legit or not. And so giving them a coupon is notenough, because now you're just in the pricing game, all right, andnobody wants to be in the pricing game. Let's not focus on trying to getthe sale because we've got the lowest prices, right HMM. So instead, why not focusing on solving one of their biggest problems? And you knowit's going to be different depending on your dealership and what kind of vehicles thatyou sell. What that messaging is, but think about the problem that yourprimary audience might have and offer them a simple, one page list of toolsthat might solve that problem or list of resources or even a simple quick guide. Right. So what if you were your lead magnet? Your opten bribe, is some people call it, was a one page checklist of all thethings someone should look for when they're trying to find the right dealership for them. And it sounds kind of funky because you're like, wait a minute,what if that? What if that's not me? But it's probably going tobe you. If you're putting this much effort into your marketing, then youcare about your business and so you're probably the right dealership. So give thema checklist of all the things to look for. You know, and thatthose things don't have to be anything crazy. It can be, you know,something as simple as, you know, a website with with whatever, youknow, special things you have on your website. It can be professional, respectable sales people, can be whatever, but that's you know, it's somethingthat helps them solve their problem, and their problem is they're trying tofigure out where to get their next car right or, you know, andand just to jump in there because, I mean, this is I lovethis kind of stuff, because this is this is a lot of the thestuff that we believe in, and I mean, you know, I wantto just jump in here and say, you know, by virtue of doingthis, you're creating, you're creating this piece of content that just kind ofkeeps giving back to you time and time again. Yes, absolutely, itkeeps giving back to you and it the connection that you create with your audienceby giving them something of value is huge. Another one that just kind of poppedto the top of my head, and I've got a buddy who ownsa car dealership and I have to give him this one because I love it. Is What if you did something that was like the the top five insuranceagents in your area, right, because they're going to buy a car,right, they're going to they're going to need insurance. So, you know, that's something that will immediately give you people that are definitely, you know, car buyers, their shoppers. They're people that are looking for cars.Sure, they might already have a car, but at least you know that theyhave a car and that they're interested in doing some kind of shopping.So give them a list hey, the five, the five top insurance agents, you know, car insurance agents in Syracuse, New York or whatever.And so now when they're looking, it's easy for them to go, Oh, great, this is one great resource. They check that resource out. Nowthey're on your followup sequence, which we can talk about if you want, but you know, they're on your follow up sequence which, you know, provides more value and continues to show them that you are the dealership thatgives a crap and you're the dealership that they want to do business with.So you're setting yourself apart and you're creating a piece of content for, youknow, what sounds like, a group of customers who have already kind ofprogressed to a certain phase of the buying process. Yeah, that's sorry,guys, the Insurance Agent List is pretty strong to because then, also,what what happens once the insurance agents catch when that this dealerships got them listedon this list of the top insurance agents? Then they stay they're dealing with carbout. You know, car owners keeps eyes on, because they're goingto be they're going to feel more Tine to refer people to you. DOUBT, no doubt. Yeah, like that one. Yeah, it's this thesame kind of concept. You know, there was a gentleman wrote an articleabout, you know, online marketing tools in Forbes magazine on their website andit included me. Right. So it...
...talked about lead pages, but itactually mentioned my name when it was talking about lead pages and for me,I'm you know, that strokes my ego a little bit. I'm kind ofexcited about that. Forms a big deal. I've been a fantaphors for a longtime. So I blasted that thing everywhere. It's on facebook, it'son twitter, my family's checking it out, and so now this guy's article isgetting all of this attention, which, again is kind of a great wayto you know, it's a great way to promote and this is howwe promote podcast, this is how we do blog post. Why not dothe same thing, like you mentioned with with your dealership? You've now createdkind of some kind of connection with the insurance agents. They're going to promotefor you and now your dealership is getting more attention and you're giving something that'sworth sharing, you know, whether it's on social yeah, it's powerful.So to some all of that up. It's give people something of value.And I mean should people be focusing on? Should the dealers be focusing on,man what do I create, or should they focus more on create somethingand let that content find the audience for you? Yeah, that's one ofthe biggest mistakes that people make is they wait forever and ever. They thinkthink they need to create this big long video course or they think that theyneed to write an eighty page ebook about how to maintain your own car orwhatever like. People think they need to create this big stuff, but theamount of time you spend creating your lead magnet does not equal your conversion right. So don't feel like you need to go out there and spend a million, you know, days creating this thing. Create something, get it out there, see how it works. If people aren't responding to it, youcan move on to the next thing. But I really, you know,I love the list of resources. It's my favorite lead magnet to give away. For example, I'm a you know, besides lead pages, I'm also avoice artist, so I do commercials and TV shows and that kind ofstuff, and on my website, one of my websites that I have forthat, that my lead magnet is the five pieces of equipment that I usedto create all of my voiceovers and people love it. It's interesting because peopleare going to hire me to create their stuff for them, but this istelling them, here's all the equipment that you could you know that you shouldget if you want to create high quality. But yours how to do exactly whatyou're going to pay me to do. Right. And you know it's funny, is they're going to look at it and they're going to see thatit's like five thousand dollars worth of equipment or whatever and they're going to go, screw that, I'd rather spend the few hundred bucks to hire somebody todo it, and it was customer and you show them your whole hand toso it kind of builds that trust and a connection that's different. Then Ilove that right. Yeah, it solves this problem that I think, youknow, facing the public. I think dealers still have that, you know, that negative kind of feel that comes along with them that they're just abunch of scammers and stuff, and we try really hard to get over that. We don't like to draw attention to it, obviously, because that's ina lot of cases not how it is, but anything that you can do.That adds this extra layer of transparency to your business. I think isjust going to be a bonus. You know, customer facing, yes,and it's not easy to do. And I understand that. It's not easyto be, you know, as transparent as you want, because it's funnypeople, you know, consumers, think they want to see the inner workingsof everything, but then if they see that you know, let's say,for example, they see that you make one fifteen hundred profit on a car, they go well, that's fifteen hundred dollars. Proud. That's too muchprofit. That's too much. But you know you can cut that profit downand save me some money. But at the end of the day they're notlooking at it like well, you've got a staff, you've got, youknow, overhead, you've got expenses, you've got all these things. Youhad to buy the car the time, you know the experience that you've spentfor thirty years building up the stealership. They don't see all that stuff.They just see that you know that, that you're making one fifteen hundred dollarsand that seems atrocious. So it's not super easy to be transparent in away that doesn't turn people off. But the best way to do that isshow them that you know what you're talking about and provide as much value asyou can for them in the experience,...
...in the situation that they're in inlife, through things that you're giving away and, of course, worse,you're going to do that in person, but before you ever get them inthe door, this is such a great way to do that is provide,you know, a great lead magnet. Once they get onto your list,provide them emails. Don't just say, Hey, we've got, you know, five new cars or, you know, check out the all new whatever,whatever, right, don't do that, because that's just pushing, pushing,pushing pushing. Instead, you know, provide them additional value. Hey,here is you know. You know, the first thing that you opted inwas a list of the best insurance agents in Syracuse. Now the nextthing is, you know, if you need your car repaired, here area few suggestions for places to do it, or here's one way to keep yourcar running longer, or just these little things that you can give topeople and when you go hey, we're going to help you keep your carrunning longer, they go, wait a minute, doesn't mean not that I'mnot going to buy a car from you for a little bit longer, andin their head they go wow, this person cares more about me than makinganother sale, and suddenly you are almost like, you know, like amentor, and now they want to buy a car from you because you're thehelpful guy or helpful Gal. Boost your credibility and authority as well. Yes, exactly. Powerful. Okay, so provide value, focus on the customer, create a piece of content, don't don't worry about it being perfect ornot. Just get something out there that can immediately start, I guess,acquiring metrics for you to measure its effectiveness. Let's let me ask you here,maybe a bit of a lightning round for the next, you know,to three minutes, favorite metrics for you to look at? And why?Well, for me personally, because I do so many webinars, it's revenueper registrant or revenue per attendee, just because it's a great way to know, you know, what your marketing dollars are worth. So if you're goingto be driving, add traffic to a Webinar registration page. If you knowhow many, you know our how how many dollars per attendee or per registrant, then you can send more people through that funnel. But another one,a simple one that is really really powerful just to know, is simply youroptin rate. Believe it or not, people are like, oh, that'sso simple, but you know, knowing your optin rate is paramount because itwill end. And by opting rate, should clarify, I mean site whiteopten rate, because again that's site white opten rate as opposed to just thetraditional optin rate, is so important. It means how many people overall cometo your website versus how many people actually opt in. And just to giveyou some figures, the average website right now has a one half of onepercent site white opten rate. HOUSERS. Yep, so for every hundred peoplethat come to your website, half of one of them will opt in.I don't know what the other half is doing. So the other the thewebsite that is actually optimized, that's doing well, that's paying attention, maybehas a reasonable lead magnet, is averaging around two percent, and a websitethat's really focused, that's got, you know, lots of different lead magnets, that's doing content upgrades, meaning a blog post where you give away somethingspecific to that blog post. You know, doing all these things, that websiteis generating around a ten percent site wide opten rate. So if youcan kind of gage yourself against that, you'll know how you're doing. Ifyou're getting half of one percent, then there are lots of things that youneed to improve. If you're hovering around two percent, I would say frommost card dealerships that's a pretty reasonable successful number for your website. Two percent. Yeah, believe it or not, two percent is it's a website that'soptimized. It's not crushing it, but it's doing well. It's you know, it's somebody who's paying attention. Interesting. You said something else here that triggereda question. So you know, you said creating blog posts that havea unique piece of content that you want to give away or have people optedinto? How much time? I don't know if it's a daily basis.How much time is someone like yourself spending blogging, creating content and creating kindof those additional pieces of content that you want to give away, or isyour process more like I have all of...
...this content and I'm going to repurposeit so that I can give it away with this blog post. Well,let's just say you're going to stay consistent, right, you're going to write oneblog post every week. So you know, everybody writes differently. I'ma very fast writer. I'm not the best writer, but I'm pretty quick, so I can knock out a blog post fairly quickly. You know,a thousand word blog post doesn't take me that much time. But you know, the question that I always get as okay, I'm already creating this blogpost. Now you're telling me to create something else to give away along withthat blog post. And the answer is yes. But there's a simple solutionto that and it's to take the same blog post that you've already written,put it into a PDF format and have people opt in to download it.And it really works it because people love to possess things. They want tofeel like something that they're doing is their's, and so if you if you givepeople that thing that that they can download, you know, maybe theycan read it later on their phone when they don't have internet or they're ona plane or whatever it is that they're doing. And just to kind ofprove that that works, Pat Flynn from smart passive incomecom his first website wasa niche site that was all about teaching architects how to pass this exam,the lead exam, right, and and his first ever product was an ebookthat was all filled with blog post that were already available on his website,but it was an ebook and he sold it and made over Eightzero his firstmonth selling that ebook. And so if people are willing to buy that tothe tune of eight thousand dollars worth of sales in one month, you betterbelieve they're willing to opt in to get the same thing. So that's onethat you could do. Checklist that enhance the value of the block post.My favorite one and then I'll I'll stop this whole tirade, but my favoriteone is that his. I saw a blog post that was about how tobuild a wooden picnic table, all right, and the the lead magnet for thatblog post, the content upgrade, was a checklist of all the materialsyou would need to build that wooden picnic table so that you could just printthat out and take it with you to the Home Depot or whatever to makesure you didn't forget anything. The rights. It's brilliant for that block post,and so it doesn't take that much time to create that content, butthe conversion rate of one of those blog posts is insane. We have wehave several blog posts that convert at ninety percent. Who It's ridiculous, ridiculouslyawesome. That's incredible. Man. Hey, listen, you know what, somuch information here, so relevant. I love, you know, theconcept of creating content that's valuable, first and foremost, showing that you actuallycare about your target audience and then solving their problems. You know, wespend a lot of time talking about this, so it's a breath of fresh air, you know, having you on the show today and validating that.You know, I think it's one more voice added to the grouping of individualswho are helping dealers achieve greater levels of success.

Smaller showrooms, one of each vehicle, iPads for vehicle customizations, and online car buying.

The International Federation of Anthroposophic Medical Associations promotes the availability and integration of Anthroposophic Medicine in health care systems to improve health outcomes.
Anthroposophic medical approaches can improve health outcomes, but must be more widely available to maximise their impact.
The WHO has recognised the potential of complementary medicine, and citizens increasingly want it to be integrated into health systems. What do policy makers need to know?
Welcome to the International Federation of Anthroposophic Medical Associations (IVAA)
Looking for a doctor?
Anthroposophic training expands conventional medical understanding by integrating physical, social and spiritual dimensions of health. Anthroposophic physicians address these elements in their practices, treating the whole individual. IVAA's member organisations can help identify an anthroposophic doctor or care centre near you.
There is increasing demand for complementary medicine to be integrated into health systems. The World Health Organization has acknowledged its potential contribution to health outcomes, and promotes its safe and effective use. To learn more about policies that can facilitate uptake of these therapeutic tools, click below.
Anthroposophic Medicine complements conventional medicine by stimulating the body's self-healing and regenerative capacity. There is increasing clinical evidence of the efficacy of various anthroposophic therapeutic approaches to treating different forms of disease. Click below to access the latest research.
A holistic, integrative model for patient care
Anthroposophic medicine integrates conventional medicine with a holistic concept of health that views a patient's biography, lifestyle, and psychological and spiritual well-being as factors in the development of a pathological condition.
Physicians practicing anthroposophic and other complementary therapies have been shown to effectively reduce the unnecessary prescription of antimicrobials that can lead to antimicrobial resistance, which has become a major public health crisis.
Anthroposophic medicines – notably mistletoe extracts – can be used as complements for cancer treatment to improve patient outcomes, including by reducing fatigue and pain and increasing patient capacity to tolerate treatment.
Commentary and thoughts on the latest issues in anthroposophic and integrative medicine from the IVAA.

One of the most popular routes with riders from all across the UK. This ride is filled with fast straights and wide, open corners, and surrounded by picturesque scenery. Known as one of the more dangerous roads in Britain, so take care!


star and two-time Oscar winner Denzel Washington will be back for another shot at the Best Actor prize. This will be Washington's sixth nomination, and his first time back at the Academy Awards as a nominee in nearly 10 years. He was last recognized for the gritty cop drama Training Day.
Unfortunately, none of the Black actors from Django Unchained received nominations. Samuel L. Jackson, Kerry Washington and Oscar winner Jamie Foxx were all unrecognized for their critically acclaimed performances — they were also snubbed at the Golden Globes. Leonardo DiCaprio was not nominated for his performance as slave-master Calvin Candie, nor did Quentin Tarantino receive a nod for Best Director. However, the antebellum drama was nominated for Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor for Christoph Waltz.
The controversy surrounding Django hasn't stopped its rise either critically or commercially. Django has grossed over $120 million since its Christmas Day release, making it Tarantino's top-grossing film to date. Analysts credit much of Django's success to its support from the Black community.
Beasts of the Southern Wild received four nominations including Best Director and Best Picture. The film's 9-year-old star, Quvenzhané Wallis, is the year's youngest Oscar nominee, with a nod in the Best Actress category.
Lincoln received the most nominations with 12, including Best Picture, Best Director (Steven Spielberg) and Best Actor (Daniel Day-Lewis).
