Dhaka ranks worst in Air Quality Index
Bangladesh's capital was ranked worst in the Air Quality Index (AQI) on Wednesday. Dhaka had a score of 179 at 10:50am, indicating that the air quality was unhealthy.
A numerical value between 151 and 200 indicates that everyone may begin to experience health effects. Members of sensitive groups may experience more serious health effects.
India's Delhi, Vietnam's Hanoi, and Poland's Krakow occupied the next three slots with scores of 174, 173 and 169 respectively.
Air quality between 201 and 300 is classified as 'very unhealthy'. If the score is between 301 and 500, then it is classified as 'hazardous'.
The AQI, an index for reporting daily air quality, tells people how clean or polluted the air of a certain city is, and what associated health effects might be a concern for them.
Dhaka, one of the most densely populated cities in the world, has been grappling with air pollution for a long time. The air quality generally worsens during summer and shows signs of improvement in monsoon when the dust settles.

$270,000 Theft of State Tax Dollars
Attorney General & Division of Taxation Target Tax Cheats
Hotlines Established to Report Tax Cheats and Corruption
Division of Criminal Justice Corruption TipLine at 1-866-TIPS-4CJ
Citizens Against Tax Cheats Hotline at 609-292-6400
TRENTON —Attorney General Peter C. Harvey today announced that a joint-agency investigation targeting the willful failure to pay state motor fuel taxes has resulted in a Hudson County businessman pleading guilty to charges of cheating the State of New Jersey out of more than $270,000 in tax revenue.
"Citizens who play by the rules cannot and will not be forced to shoulder the burden of lawless tax cheats who evade the system," Attorney General Harvey said. "This investigation demonstrates the resolve and forward thinking of the Division of Criminal Justice and the Division of Taxation as they undertake concerted efforts to target tax cheats. Make no mistake, we intend to recoup and return missing and due and owing tax dollars to our treasury and to New Jersey's honest taxpayers."
"New Jersey taxpayers should know they must comply with the State Tax statutes or face consequences. To that end, I have supported the Division of Taxation since my first day in Office and have encouraged the cooperative relationship that is obviously working with the Division of Criminal Justice," said State Treasurer John E. McCormac.
According to Vaughn L. McKoy, Director, Division of Criminal Justice, Manuel Mier, 50, Irvington Avenue, Hillside, Union County, pleaded guilty before Hudson County Superior Court Judge Kevin G. Callahan to charges of failure to file New Jersey Motor Fuel tax returns and failure to turn over taxes. As a result of the Jan. 20 guilty plea, Meir faces up to five years in state prison and a fine of up to $15,000. Additionally, the Court will order the payment of $417,685 in back taxes, interest and penalty. Meir is scheduled to be sentenced on April 15.
"Tax payment and the payment of mandatory collected fees is an obligation of business ownership. The State's services to citizens depend upon receiving revenues from business taxes. The Division of Taxation, in concert with the Division of Criminal Justice, will continue to target tax delinquents in order to collect any and all due and owing tax monies," said Robert K. Thompson, Director, Division of Taxation.
The criminal Accusation charged that Mier, the owner/operator of three corporations doing business as 76 Tonnelle Friendly Service LTD (a service station located at 7514 Tonnelle Ave., Hudson County), Leticia, Inc. and L&M Services, Inc., failed to file and remit more than $95,909 in motor fuel taxes collected through the sale of gasoline and diesel fuels from September, 1997 through February, 2000. Additionally, the Accusation charged that Mier and his wife maintained an ownership interest in two waste disposal trucking companies located in North Bergen and Newark. The companies, incorporated as Leticia, Inc. and L&M Services, Inc., also failed to remit more than $181,199 in use taxes to the State Treasurer. After seizing various business records via search warrants, Division of Taxation investigators and auditors conducted an audit of the records and determined that Mier and his corporations failed to file required tax returns and Seller-User of Special Fuels Reports and to submit due and owing motor fuel excise tax revenues. The New Jersey Motor Fuel Excise Tax applies to service station sales of diesel motor fuel which is taxed at the rate of 13 ½ cents per gallon of diesel fuel.
"Anyone who operates a business in the State of New Jersey and who intentionally fails to submit motor fuel tax revenues will be investigated by the Division of Taxation and prosecuted by the Division of Criminal Justice. We will not tolerate the business of cheating the state and its citizens out of tax monies," said Criminal Justice Director McKoy.
Attorney General Harvey noted that the Division of Criminal Justice has established a toll-free "Corruption TipLine" for the public to report corruption, financial crime and other illegal activities. The statewide "Corruption TipLine" is: 1-866-TIPS-4CJ. Additionally, the public can log on to the Division of Criminal Justice Web Page at www.njdcj.org to electronically report suspected wrongdoing. Any information received via the Division of Criminal Justice "Corruption TipLine" will remain confidential.
Director Thompson said that anyone with information about unscrupulous tax preparers, or any type of tax fraud, are encouraged to contact the New Jersey Division of Taxation's "Citizens Against Tax Cheats or CATCH" program. The hotline number is: (609) 292-6400. Information can also be mailed to the New Jersey Division of Taxation, 50 Barrack Street, P.O. Box 190, Trenton, NJ 08695-0190, Attention: Citizens Against Tax Cheats.
The investigation was coordinated by the Division of Taxation Office of Criminal Investigations and the Division of Criminal Justice - Financial Crimes Bureau. Supervising Deputy Attorney General Terrence Hull of the Division of Criminal Justice - Financial Crimes Bureau prosecuted the case. State Investigator Scott Romanowski of the Division of Criminal Justice - Major Financial Crimes Bureau and Investigator Frank Papp assigned to the Division of Taxation Office of Criminal Investigations conducted the investigation.

Johann Georg Keifflin (* 4. September 1672 in Diemeringen; † 2. Mai 1728 in Kreuznach) war ein elsässischer Pfarrer und Komponist, der in Straßburg, Kleinbockenheim und Kreuznach wirkte.

Leben
Johann Georg Keifflin war eines von neun Kindern des rheingräflichen Hofpredigers Mag. Johann Andreas Keifflin (Jean-André Keiflin) (1638–1709) und dessen Ehefrau (⚭ 1663) Ursula Heusch (Heisch) (1634–1720), Tochter von Sattler und Zunftmeister (Scabinus primarius) Georg Heisch († nach 1657) und Maria Heim aus Straßburg. Sein Vater – ein Sohn von Johann Keifflin († nach 1657), Regimentsgewaltiger der Stadt Straßburg, aus Durlach und (⚭ 1636) Anna Maria Spengler – war 1662 bis 1665 Pfarrer in Aßweiler, 1665 bis 1674 Pfarrer in Diemeringen, dann Pfarrer in Finstingen, 1679 Kaplan am Bürgerhospital in Straßburg, 1683 Diakonus und 1697 Pfarrer an der Wilhelmskirche (Église Saint-Guillaume), Canonicus Senior und Capitularius des freiweltlichen Stiftes zu St. Stephan in Straßburg.

Einer seiner Brüder war Johann Andreas Keifflin Dümmeringensis († nach 1739), der sich 1690 in Straßburg immatrikulierte, 1702 Licencié en droit (Licentiatus juris) und 1731 Conseiller und Advocat am Königlichen Hof war. Ein weiterer Bruder war der Pfarrer Mag. Johann Philipp Keifflin (1669–1731). Seine Schwester Juliana Margaretha Keifflinin (1663–1726) war seit 1686 mit Pfarrer Johann Zinßner (1661–1727) im Hanauerland verheiratet.

Johann Georg Keifflin Dümringensis schrieb sich am 20. Oktober 1691 an der Universität Straßburg ein und legte am 10. Mai 1698 sein Examen ab. Während seiner Studienzeit wirkte er vom 4. März 1693 bis 1697 als Organist an Saint-Guillaume in Straßburg. Am 20. Mai 1698 wurde Keifflin ordiniert. Im selben Jahr heiratete er Anna Margareta Kolb, eine Tochter des Seidenhändlers Johann Paul Kolb (1622–1680) und der Margarete Schaumann aus Straßburg.

1698 bis 1699 war Keifflin Hauslehrer und Hofprediger der Grafen Friedrich Emich (1621–1698) bzw. Johann Friedrich von Leiningen-Dagsburg-Hardenburg (1661–1722) in der Emichsburg und Pfarrer von Kleinbockenheim.

Nach der Berufung von Pfarrer Georg Debus (1649–1722) nach Heidelberg wählte die lutherische Gemeinde in Kreuznach Keifflin zu ihrem Pfarrer. Keifflin übernahm die Gemeinde am 26. August 1699. Das lutherische Konsistorium in Heidelberg wollte ihn zunächst nicht bestätigen, weil er ohne dessen Wissen und Zustimmung gewählt worden war. Keifflin reiste an den kurpfälzischen Hof nach Düsseldorf und setzte seine Bestätigung durch.

Am 5. Oktober 1700 hielt Keifflin eine Predigt über Gen  zur Einweihung der neuen lutherischen Wilhelmskirche in Kreuznach, die er nach der Straßburger Wilhelmskirche benennen ließ. Der Name war zugleich eine Anspielung auf die beiden katholischen Landesherren Kurfürst Johann Wilhelm von der Pfalz (1658–1716) und Markgraf Ludwig Wilhelm von Baden (1655–1707).

Gräfin Marie Elisabeth von Leiningen-Dagsburg-Hardenburg (1648–1724), die Schwester des Grafen Johann Friedrich von Leiningen-Dagsburg-Hardenburg und Witwe des dänischen Großkanzlers Friedrich von Ahlefeldt (1623–1686), spendete eine Kanzel für 100 Reichstaler und Antependien für die neue Kirche. Zur Einweihung der neuen Orgel am 3. November 1706, die von Orgelbaumeister Jacob Irrlacher (1672–1762) aus St. Pölten gebaut worden war, schrieb Keifflin eine Kantate ("Orgel Carmen"), deren Druck in 400 Exemplaren für 6 Gulden und 4 Albus bei der Mainzer Hof- und Universitätsdruckerei von Johannes Mayer († 1746) in Auftrag gegeben und die mit Vokalisten und Instrumentalisten aufgeführt wurde.

1701 beklagte sich der lutherische Präzeptor (Lehrer) Johann Christoph Voigt beim Konsistorium in Heidelberg über die Form der Sakramentsverwaltung Keifflins, in Sonderheit dass er "bey Haltung des Heyl. Abendmahls nicht alle Hostien noch Wein seegne, welcher außgespendet würde, auch dießen heyligen Symbolis den Rücken zukehre und was dergleichen adiaphoristische Dinge mehr waren"; die Beschwerde wurde jedoch niedergeschlagen. Voigt suchte 1707 in Frankfurt um Aufnahme nach.

Keifflin betreute von Kreuznach aus auch die Evangelischen in den Orten Ebernburg, Feil und Bingert in der Herrschaft Sickingen, die während des Dreißigjährigen Krieges wieder katholisch gewordenen war, und veröffentlichte 1710 eine Protestschrift an das Corpus Protestantium beim Immerwährenden Reichstag in Regensburg gegen deren Bedrückung durch den Freiherrn Friedrich Franz von Sickingen († 1713). Keifflin kritisierte auch das sickingische Verhalten in den Dörfern Norheim und Traisen. Auch die Lutheraner in Rüdesheim wurden seit seinem Kreuznacher Dienstbeginn von Keifflin betreut.

1711 beriet Keifflin Graf Johann Ernst von Nassau-Weilburg (1664–1719) – verheiratet mit Maria Polyxena (1662–1725), einer weiteren Schwester des Grafen Johann Friedrich von Leiningen-Dagsburg-Hartenburg – wegen eines Orgelneubaus in der Schlosskirche zu Weilburg, der später durch Johann Jakob Dahm (1659–1727) ausgeführt wurde. Mit Verweis auf Straßburger Werke, die Irrlacher-Orgeln in Kreuznach und in der Karlskirche zu Zweibrücken (Bauzeit 1711–1715) empfahl er französische Stimmung und Disposition:

1714 heiratete Johann Georg Keifflin in zweiter Ehe die Kaufmannstochter Susanna Bernhard († nach 1721). Sein Bruder Johann Philipp war seit 1708 in zweiter Ehe mit Anna Salomé Bernhardt verheiratet.

1715 wurde Keifflin von der Kurpfalz für die Veröffentlichung der Protestschrift an das Corpus Protestantium eine Strafe von 100 Reichstalern an Maria Anna Anastasia von Enschringen († 1733), die Witwe Sickingens, und die Übernahme der Prozesskosten in Höhe von 100 Reichstalern auferlegt, wovon die lutherische Gemeinde in Kreuznach die Hälfte übernahm. 200 Reichstaler entsprechen 300 Gulden, Keifflins Jahressalär betrug 100 Gulden, ein Fuder Wein und 20 Malter Korn. Der weitere Umgang mit den sickingischen Untertanen wurde Keifflin verboten, die Protestschrift in seiner Gegenwart vom Amtsbüttel zerrissen und seine Versetzung auf eine schlechter bezahlte Stelle angedroht.

1726 baten Pfarrer Keifflin und Vorsteher der Gemeinde den Rat der Stadt Frankfurt am Main um Gewährung einer Unterstützung für die durch Gewitter und Hagelschlag in Not geratene lutherische Gemeinde.

Nach einigen Schlaganfällen wurde ihm 1727 der Diakonus Johann Nikolaus Brach († 1740) zur Seite gestellt.

Keifflin starb 1728 und wurde in der St.-Wilhelm-Kirche begraben. Seine Tochter Margaretha Ursula Keiflin (1699–1781) "von Xnac (= Kreuznach)" heiratete 1720 in Ilbesheim bei Kirchheimbolanden den Pfarrer Gustav Friedrich Siebecker (1695–1759).

Charges filed against 2 men accused of attacking Black man at Indiana lake
Two men charged in Lake Monroe attack
By: WRTV Staff
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Two white men have been charged in connection with an alleged racial attack on a Black man at an Indiana lake on the Fourth of July.
The alleged victim, Vauhxx Booker, said the news of charges against Sean Purdy and Jerry Cox "isn't a happy moment."
"It's a necessary moment," said Booker, a civil rights activist and member of the Monroe County Human Rights Commission.
Booker and his attorney, Katharine Liell, held a press conference after the Monroe County Prosecutor's Office announced charges Friday. It was held virtually, as Booker has recently tested positive for COVID-19.
Booker said five white men pinned him against a tree at Lake Monroe, shouted racial slurs and one of them threatened to "get a noose" during the incident over Independence Day weekend.
Booker said he's often asked what should happen to Purdy and Cox, and he says it's not for him to say.
"That's not my place to decide," he said. "We have a legal system and what I want now is for our neighbors to do their part and decide the fate of these individuals."
According to a report released Thursday by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, state investigators identified six potential crimes by Sean Purdy and Jerry Cox, as well as Booker. No charges have been filed against Booker by the prosecutor's office.
"This is about justice," Booker said. "Part of that is going to be the need to move on to the federal level. This stopped being just about me and stopped being about the nation the moment I chose to speak out."
Purdy faces the following charges:
35-42-3-3(a)/F5: Criminal Confinement with bodily injury
35-42-2-1(c)(1)/F6: Battery Resulting in Moderate Bodily Injury
35-45-2-1(a)(4)/F6: Intimidation
Purdy's legal team is aware of the charges and will not be responding Friday.
Cox faces the following charges:
35-45-2-1(a)(4)/MA: Intimidation
35-42-2-1(c)(1)/MB: Battery

The Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas, led by its president Al Panlilio, commended the UAAP for its successful staging of the 3×3 tournament on March 2 and 3 at Ayala Malls Feliz in Pasig City.
Panlilio expressed his gratitude to the UAAP for helping the SBP in promoting 3-on-3 basketball, which is one of the fast growing sports today.
"The alignment forged by the UAAP 3×3 organizers with the SBP is what we've been actively espousing. We are very pleased that the UAAP 3×3 with their 3×3 commissioner Xavier Nunag and SBP 3×3 program head Ronnie Magsanoc were able to establish a strong link and partnership that benefitted our country in our goal to generate as many points as possible," said Panlilio.
Panlilio is referring to the Philippines' bid to earn an Olympic 3-on-3 slot via ranking points.
Each 3-on-3 tournament held in the country earns points and helps our bid.
"Remember that 3×3 is now an Olympic sport and that's why I am calling on all independent 3×3 event organizers to align with coach Ronnie so that they can be guided accordingly on the correct formula in running their respective tournaments," said Panlilio.
This year's UAAP 3×3 tournament was hosted by Far Eastern University. Ateneo and National University ruled the men's and women's division, respectively.
"This year's iteration, may I say a smashing success – so much so that we definitely need a bigger venue next year," said UAAP executive director Rebo Saguisag.
Led by Thirdy Ravena and Angelo Kouame, the Blue Eagles beat University of Santo Tomas, 19-13, in the men's 3×3 finals.
The Lady Bulldogs, on the other hand, were merciless in handing Adamson a 21-3 beatdown in the championship round.

Permutácija (oznaka ) (iz latinske besede permutare, kar pomeni zamenjati) je v matematiki z medsebojnimi zamenjavami preurejeno zaporedje znanega končnega števila elementov (pri tem pa število elementov ostane enako). V matematiki je to bijekcija množice elementov  samega v sebe, ki se jo zapiše kot:

Permutacije  naravnih števil tvorijo simetrično grupo, ki se jo označuje s . Grupa ima svojo identično funkcijo, vsaka permutacija ima tudi obratno permutacijo, ki povrne dano permutacijo v stanje pred zadnjo zamenjavo.

V naslednji razpredelnici so prikazane vse permutacije treh elementov (6 permutacij). Za vsako permutacijo so napisane tri zamenjave na treh mestih, kjer so elementi množice.

Prva permutacija se imenuje identična permutacija Pri tej permutaciji v resnici ostanejo elementi na svojih mestih. Pri vseh ostalih pa zamenjajo mesta.

Sam postopek preurejanja zaporedja elementov se imenuje permutiranje.

Načini označevanja permutacij

Znani so trije različni načini za opis permutacij v končni množici :

 V dvovrstičnem načinu se v prvi vrstici napišejo elementi množice , v drugi vrstici pa se vpiše permutacija elementov.

 Za množico , ki ima elemente {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, se eno izmed permutacij lahko zapiše kot
 .
 S tem se je permutacijo opisalo z matriko, ki ima 2 vrstici in 5 stolpcev. Pri tem pa je 5 kardinalnost množice, ki se jo permutira. Druga vrstica tako pove na katerem mestu je po permutaciji element, ki je napisan v prvi vrstici. To je enako kot:

 .

 Podobno se zapiše dvovrstični zapis za poljubno število elementov .

 Enovrstični način opisa vsebuje samo drugo vrstico.
 Zgornji primer se zapiše kot:

 Ciklični zapis temelji na dejstvu, da se permutacije izvajajo v določenem zaporedju. V tem načinu zapisa se pokaže kateri elementi so menjali lege, če se permutacije izvajajo po vrsti. To se imenuje tudi razbijanje permutacije v zmnožek disjunktnih ciklov permutacij.
 Zgornjo permutacijo se na ta način zapiše kot:

 . Permutacija elementov  se lahko piše v obliki ciklov kot . To pomeni, da se lahko vsako permutacijo napiše kot produkt transpozicij. Vsak element množice nastopa natanko samo v enem ciklu. Vsak cikel pa je tudi permutacija. Permutacija je soda, če je produkt sodega števila transpozicij, in liha, če je produkt lihega števila transpozicij. Sodost in lihost permutacije določa parnost permutacije. Če se potrebuje liho število permutacij, da se pride do identične permutacije, se reče, da je parnost permutacije liha. Podobno velja tudi za sode permutacije.

 To je enako kot:
 ,
 ,
 ,
 ,

 Ciklični zapis permutacije:

 Pomeni, da se 1 zamenja z 2, 2 se zamenja s 5 ter 5 zamenja z 1. Drugi oklepaj pa pomeni, da se 3 zamenja s 4 in 4 zamenja s 3. To je:

 .

Vsaka permutacija končne množice je produkt disjunktnih ciklov.

Kompozitum permutacij

Kompozitum dveh permutacij  in  se imenuje produkt permutacij (grupna operacija). Označuje se ga z . V splošnem velja tudi, da produkt permutacij ni komutativen. To pomeni, da . Je pa asociativen .

Zgled: obravnavata se dve permutaciji:

Rezultat se lahko prikaže v obliki matrike s tremi vrsticami:

kjer se je
 v drugo vrstico vpisalo permutacijo
 v tretji vrstici pa je vpisan rezultat kompozituma

Torej je kompozitum dveh permutacij  enak:

kjer se je drugo vrstico izpustilo.

Rezultat se dobi tako, da se najprej opravi permutacijo , na dobljeno permutacijo se izvede še permutacijo .

Zgled: po permutaciji  se 1 zamenja s 3, ki pa se zaradi permutacije  zamenja s 4. V nadaljevanju se 2 najprej zamenja s 5, ki se zamenja z 1. Nato sledi zamenjava 3 z 2, ki se zamenja s 5. Nato sledi zamenjava 4 s 4, ki ji sledi zamenjava s 3. Zadnja pa je zamenjava 5 z 1, ki ji sledi zamenjava z 2. S tem se je dobilo končno obliko permutacije.

Obratna permutacija

Ker ima bijektivna preslikava tudi obratni element, se lahko definira obratni element tudi za permutacijo. Označi se ga z . Obratna permutacija je tudi ena izmed permutacij. Z dvovrstičnim zapisom (glej spodaj) je to:

 .

Identična permutacija

Identična permutacija preslika vse elemente sama v sebe. To se lahko zapiše kot:

V takšni permutaciji ostane prvi element na prvem mestu, drugi element na drugem in tako dalje do zadnjega elementa množice.

Transpozicija

V transpoziciji zamenjata mesti samo dva elementa iz množice. Drugi ostanejo na svojih mestih.

Krožna permutacija

Krožna permutacija je permutacija v kateri se premakne elemente urejene množice za določen pomik v levo ali desno, višek elementov na drugi strani pa se vrine na začetku v istem vrstnem redu. To je podobno vrtenju.

Zgled: če je množica  in se izvede krožno permutacijo s pomikom za eno mesto proti levi, se bo dobilo zaporedje v množici  (prvi element je prišel na zadnje mesto). Če pa bi se naredila krožna permutacija s pomikom na desno, bi bila nova permutacija  (zadnji element je prišel na prvo mesto)

Število permutacij

Število vseh permutacij reda  je enako:

kjer je:

  fakulteta števila  ().

Kadar se iz množice  elementov vzame  elementov, je število permutacij enako . V tem primeru je seveda nekaj elementov nerazporejenih ().

Poseben primer je število permutacij, če so v množici  med seboj enaki elementi. Če je med  elementi enakih , potem je število možnih permutacij enako:

Permutacijska matrika

Vse permutacije  elementov se lahko prikaže kot matriko z razsežnostjo . Običajno se vzame za elemente  pri tistih permutacijah pri katerih je , drugi pa so enaki 0. Permutacijska matrika ima v vsaki vrstici in stolpcu samo enkrat vpisano enico, na drugih mestih pa vedno 0.

Stale, outdated and completely original 70s (even the behemoth microwave), the Albert's kitchen was ready for a new life. While in its heyday it was trendy and on point, having been designed by an interior designer who previously owned the house, it was time to say hello to the year 2015.
The Alberts approached me in hopes of rethinking the smaller kitchen and getting a bit more workable space while bringing it aesthetically up to date. By widening the opening to the adjacent dining room and knocking out the peninsula and extending the casework along the entire exterior, we were able to totally maximize the kitchen turning it into a wide galley style.
The built-in dining bench allowed us to further reduce the amount of floor space taken up by a traditional table and four chairs. Cherry shaker cabinets, beautiful granite tops with custom backsplash, new appliances and fixtures made this kitchen completely transform. And the clients love it.


The better the generation nature of a video promotion, the better it performs on Facebook. Isn't that so?
However, there's a motivation behind why some low-spending plan Facebook recordings frequently contact a greater number of individuals with less advertisement spend than business quality recordings.
In this scene of Shopify Masters, you'll gain from a business person who ran an "awful advertisement" on Facebook that made him $2 million in his first year of business.
Chad Kauffman is the prime supporter of Kitty Poo Club, an organization that boats expendable feline litter boxes, pre-loaded up with premium litter, specifically to your entryway consistently.
"20 years back, video was what we saw on TV, so there's this TV-quality desire. At that point out of the blue we get into YouTube and Facebook and Instagram and Snapchat".
Why you may need to drive your clients to a page to take in more than to a page to purchase promptly.
Felix: Today I'm joined by Chad [Kaufman 00:00:51] from Kitty Poo Club. Kitty Poo Club ships astounding expendable feline litter boxes prefilled with ultra-premium litter specifically to your entryway every month for a low month to month cost and was begun in 2017 and based out of Wooster, Ohio. Welcome, Chad.
Chad: Thank you, Felix. Welcome you having me on your show.
Felix: Yeah, eager to have you on. I think I depicted the thought behind the item however where did it originate from? Where this will think originated from?
Chad: Yeah, you made really a fantastic showing with regards to. Presumably around two years back, we've generally been a major fanatic of felines. I really don't claim a feline. I'm extremely hypersensitive to them yet I've constantly cherished felines and really wish I could have one yet we've generally been fans. I have heaps of companions that are enormous feline sweethearts and we saw a need simply observing a portion of my feline companions, what they experience when they're upkeep of their litter box on a month to month premise and my father, who really is the fellow benefactor with me on this, perceived the chance and he came to me and he stated, "Chad, imagine a scenario in which we completed a dispensable litter box?" I sort of shook my head and giggled and stated, "Better believe it, father, right. I don't imagine that is presumably exceptionally feasible as litter should be changed all the time," and delivering costs I thought would be restrictive.
I'm a business person. I've begun numerous organizations so I only sort of chalked it off and place it in the back of my head and started to consider it to an ever increasing extent and afterward I truly began to plunge into what kinds of litter are out there available and might you be able to really complete an expendable litter box and put enough litter in that case and send it to feline proprietors at a conservative cost that could keep going for an entire month. I sincerely didn't figure it would be conceivable.
We began on this adventure of doing innovative work and taking a gander at different litters and testing and checking whether we could build up a case that would really work. That is the manner by which we sort of thought of it and started our in reality venture.
Felix: You made reference to that you are a business person. You began different organizations before and I'm certain that you've had a lot of thoughts previously and a lot of thoughts in the meantime you began this business. To hear you discuss it, there were a few factors that would give you detriments for beginning a professional this. What influenced you to seek after this specific thought other than contrasted with alternate things that you could've sought after?
Chad: Sure. For one is it's an astonishing extensive market. There are really 40 million feline proprietors in the United States and those are proprietors that have indoor felines. There's in reality around 98 million indoor felines and the feline litter business is a $3 billion every year industry. As you probably are aware, in the event that you've at any point had a feline or any creature, they pee and crap each and every day thus in case you will have an indoor feline you need a litter box. I imagined that there was likely a tolerable chance in the event that we could build up a crate that was practical and a litter that was suitable, this could be a truly decent membership base with month to month repeating income. In being that the business was so expansive and there wasn't anyone in the business doing anything like what we have, we chose to seek after it, if in actuality we could build up a reasonable item which we've completed a great job of.
Chad: Sure. No doubt, great inquiry. There's various litters out available. You have everything from wheat to grass to corn to earth to walnut to silica. The rundown sort of continues forever and there's many supplies cut makers of that and a variety of retailers that are retailing those makers' items. There's various membership litters available. In the event that you simply go Amazon for instance, you could basically buy in to any litter that is accessible on Amazon. We chose not to fundamentally endeavor to go up against the membership litter administrations since anyone could basically take their litter and transform it into a membership yet our snare is really our container. There is definitely not an expendable litter box available anyplace that can keep going for a whole month.
Where such a large amount of our R and D went was really into our case and that was presumably the single hardest thing that we needed to defeat on the R and D side was our case since it's a cardboard box. A few people see it and say, "Gracious my gosh, I could never purchase a litter box that was made of cardboard." Yeah, you would surmise that and we have various individuals on our Facebook page and stuff that would state, "Goodness, my feline would wreck that container in two days. They want to demolish cardboard." That's simply not genuine and the purpose behind that is on the grounds that felines are exceptionally regional and they're extremely predominant. Their litter box is a piece of that space so they're not going to devastate or tear up their area. It simply doesn't occur. We really have parts and parcels and heaps of clients, several thousands and we haven't had a solitary report of a feline really obliterating a crate since they won't do that.
Furthermore, our container is completely covered with a FDA affirmed water-evidence covering and after that in that we have an, at the base of the crate, we have a fixed reused plastic plate which is fixed into the case. Our case is intended for pee. It's intended for felines that shower and it will hold up for a whole 30 days with no issues at all.
That is the snare that I think winds up appealing to individuals that, goodness, you're giving me a straightforward, advantageous arrangement from going out there and do the month to month upkeep on my litter box. In the event that you've at any point claimed a feline, feline proprietors are scooping the crap every day. Toward the week's end, they're practically dumping every last bit of it out. They're by and large etching it out in light of the fact that the pee bunches and it transforms into cement at the base of the crate and there's only the majority of this stinky support that accompanies litter box upkeep. We've comprehended that.
Presently the second part is the genuine litter and our litter is made of silica gel and silica is quite notable available. It's in reality only a mineral from the earth and it's 100% nontoxic to creatures and in addition to people. Numerous individuals will state, "Gracious, silica gel, isn't that toxic?" Because they're comfortable with the little silica gel parcels that possibly you find in ladies' handbags or anyplace where you're endeavoring to remove dampness from the air and they'll asy, "Don't eat." The issue isn't really the silica gel. It's that you would prefer not to get that parcel itself into your stomach related framework. The silica gel itself is in reality fine and dandy for your framework.
We built up a silica gel; anyway we are very unique in relation to the next silica gel litters available. We endeavored to complete a couple of things. Felines need a characteristic item and this is a mineral thus we attempted to keep it as normal as could be expected under the circumstances. A large number of the silicas that are accessible available have cobalt chloride which is a cancer-causing agent and that is really what turns the litter hues with the goal that individuals know when their feline's urinated or the litter's spent. We chose to not disturb that. Cancer-causing agents are bad for you. They're bad for creatures thus we need to have no piece of that in our litter.
We additionally, it's without color. It's sans fragrance and it's without residue and the majority of that is segments that are appealing people for the nature of your air in your home and furthermore to felines. Hence, our litter performs to a great degree well. You really can run a whole month with one feline with totally zero smell in your home. You say that and on the off chance that you are a feline proprietor you surmise that is outlandish however that is the reason we have individuals joining day by day in the droves since they just can hardly imagine how our item is very smell for a whole month and that truly needs to do with the structure of our litter.
Felix: Got it. I think what you're getting at here is I think one about the methodology that you've taken that I extremely like is that you perceived that there was at that point a considerable measure of membership litter organizations out there that were offering only the litter itself and a great many people would see that, at that point rebate their capacity to contend and say, "There's as of now an excess of rivalry over here. Let me simply proceed onward to something different." You sort of peeled back the layers and revealed two or three points where you could come in and contend and I think the greatest one that you specified was the crate. Would you be able to talk us through the procedure, your point of view that goes into that when you see, since you have the experience of beginning organizations, when you see a commercial center, when you see there's as of now items out there, how would you reveal the edges of where you could contend? How would you haul out these snares where you would come in and offer an option?
Chad: I think a great deal of it begins with simply taking a gander at what issues do individuals have that aren't being comprehended out in the commercial center. For us, it appeared to be exceptionally evident that the upkeep on litter boxes are only a serious agony and a great many people simply would prefer not to manage wiping those out. We took a gander at it from that edge as far as, approve, there's litter. Litter is ending up substantially more promptly accessible on web based business. Litter normally is a substantial item thus individuals would prefer not to go out to the store and need to place that into their basic supply truck and carry it home et cetera so why not move the course that numerous classifications are going today which is online business and have it conveyed to your home? We realized that in the event that we didn't have anything that separated us other than our simply litter, at that point we would contend with each other litter organization out there, including on internet business and in addition customary retail. We realized that we needed to have a total, across the board answer for feline proprietors on the off chance that we were extremely going to make a sprinkle in this space.
We truly felt like the container was a noteworthy part that was being disregarded by litter organizations. At the present time, what's accessible on retail is practically only an infusion shaped plastic box and there's nothing fun about it. You can have short side dividers which enables litter to get followed out of the container effortlessly. It can spill. Feline can toss it out of the crate, the rundown continues endlessly, or you put a vault on it. All things considered felines truly don't care for vaults. They don't care for encased spaces and simply as you don't care for going into a port-a-potty, in essence since it has dung and pee in there in an encased space, it doesn't get flushed, it stinks. A similar way is valid with a litter box. I don't intend to be excessively realistic here yet envision a similar thing is valid for a feline to go into a hooded litter box. Having an open space like we have that enables the feline to get into it truly makes for a compelling item and truly separates us between others in the commercial center.
Felix: Lots of R and D required before you're ready to discharge this item. Would you be able to converse with us about the examination procedure and how you built up your answer?
Chad: Yeah, beyond any doubt. Strikingly my experience, one of the organizations that I began was a plastic organization thus I know gums exceptionally well. I know infusion forming exceptionally well and that is an organization that regardless I have and we complete a considerable measure of business in that space. I would not like to go that course. I additionally would not like to transport a plastic box to individuals that would be, An, extremely costly and, B, exceptionally inefficient and obstruct landfills. I believed that I extremely needed to think of an earth well-disposed arrangement and cardboard is in reality naturally cordial. It can, A, be reused. B, in the event that it goes to the landfill it breaks down in the landfill and it's a tree that returns into its indigenous habitat. I began with that start of would we be able to do an expendable 100% reused cardboard box?
You're discussing for one feline, a normal feline urinates around over two to four ounces for each time it goes. You begin to include that up over a few times each day through the span of 30 days, that winds up being a great deal of fluid that is going into that crate and you think, "Alright, paper and fluid ordinarily don't blend exceptionally well." We invested a ton of energy in the R and D stage attempting to work with various monetarily accessible coatings that we could coat the cardboard with that would hold up to the pee. Things being what they are, on the off chance that you know anything about feline pee, there's a great deal of alkali in it and it's entirely similar to corrosive from numerous points of view. It just appears to eat through everything. We couldn't locate a decent covering that would permit or that would withstand 30 days worth of feline pee. Despite the fact that it was getting consumed by out litter, this still would wind up advancing toward the base before it would get ingested.
We most likely strove for around a half year to explain that condition and bombed hopelessly. By then I truly imagined that perhaps what we were following simply was certainly not a feasible arrangement. At that point I returned to my plastic information and chose to complete a, thin, 100% reused plastic plate that could be fixed into that crate. When we really thought of that, that clearly tackled the majority of the issues and afterward we buckled down to build up a framework that enabled that plate to be fixed into the cardboard. That was most likely around three to five months' worth of R and D and we began on an extremely manual process. At that point once we demonstrated out the idea and demonstrated out the business, we put resources into assembling hardware that would enable us to scale and wind up completing a huge number of boxes every month. We have those assembling frameworks set up now.
Felix: What about the testing that was included? When you could create a variant of it that was prepared to be tried by I figure the end shopper, the client, would you say you were ready to get it out and repeat on? How did that procedure go?
Chad: Yeah, totally. It's an extraordinary inquiry. We quite experienced presumably nine or 10 unique emphases thus every time we tried every emphasis, I really ran only a straightforward Facebook advertisement in my general vicinity here in Ohio and put it out to feline proprietors and stated, "Hello, I'm hoping to do some continuous testing and I would give you free litter and free boxes to test in the event that you would furnish me with criticism." I joined 30 feline proprietors thus they got this gratis. Their solitary catch was they expected to give me steady criticism. I simply did everything through online review devices thus we would make one cycle. I would drive around and convey these crates to individuals' homes and after that I would send study devices out throughout the following week or a little while and I would get criticism.
At that point I would make another emphasis and I only kept on rehashing that and I would make upgrades dependent on that criticism after every cycle until the point when we got to a point where we had an inclination that we had an incredibly suitable item that was defeating the majority of the complaints and information that we were accepting from those testing the item. That included the case itself as well as the litter. We invested a considerable measure of energy building up the litter too which has been specially created by us. We are utilizing, as I had made reference to, silica gel however there's a bundle of segments to that that have been exclusively created by us.
Felix: Yeah, I like how you attempt to essentially simply make sense of what protests individuals have, what sort of issues do they have with the item and after that only sort of handle every last one of them each one in turn. How are you ready to organize which complaints or which issues you should endeavor to handle first?
Chad: Yeah, that is a decent inquiry. It extremely first begins with the litter since you could have the best box in the whole world however in the event that the litter doesn't perform and keep going for an entire 30 days, at that point the container is basically futile. The crate ends up being the tops off an already good thing but on the other hand it's the snare with respect to why they need to purchase our item and after that they discover how great the litter really is. We chose to initially begin with the litter and we could simply return and roll out improvements to the container. We experienced many diverse emphasess on the litter also until the point when we ensured that we were getting an entire 30 days out of our litter for one feline and that implied extremely no smell at all and insignificant upkeep.
I haven't gabbed about the litter however the litter itself is vital in light of the fact that, as I just made reference to, if the litter bombs then basically the case is trivial. Silica gel is an exceptionally permeable material thus it really has a huge number of miniaturized scale pores. Feline pee is really 95% water and 5% urea. Urea is the scent causing part, the part stinks. It's that alkali smell that only sort of makes your nose turn. At the point when a feline urinates, it hits these countless smaller scale pores which immediately retain the pee. What does water do normally? It vanishes and we realize that pee is comprised of 95% water. That water really vanishes and afterward the urea remains caught in the miniaturized scale pores and really can't get away. That is the reason you get an entire 30 days out of our litter with zero scent is on the grounds that that smell is actually remaining caught in the small scale pores.
Felix: Makes sense. This manual procedure that you have for creating the case at first, you made reference to that you currently mechanize away for generation. How could you realize that the time had come to put resources into scaling up the business?
Chad: Yeah. We propelled October first, 2017 and we didn't generally realize what's in store. Our promoting approach was we would get some Facebook advertisements and we would put it up and see what occurs. I began with my very own Facebook organize and stated, "Hello, I have this new business, fabricating slice web based business that we're propelling and for my feline companions out there, for what reason don't you attempt our container?" I shockingly got likely 10 or 15 of my companions to join and they cherished it. Before long after, inside a week or somewhere in the vicinity, we propelled some Facebook advertisements and didn't generally realize what's in store.
In the initial 20 days, we wound up joining 1,400 clients and we resembled, "Goodness." The reaction was exceptional and we were set up as in we had enough stock yet we had sufficiently about stock for that and that being it since the majority of our litter is really made in China so there's a long lead time for it to be made in light of the fact that it is hand crafted and afterward for it to be on the water, it's 30 days on the water and get past traditions and really to our stockroom office.
Since it's a membership base, you must be set up for that. You can't simply say, "I can't send you this month since I came up short on stock." We sort of then close all the Facebook advertisements down and we're similar to, "Affirm, we're not going to take any longer clients since we know we have a decent item here and individuals adore it and we have to ensure that we can benefit them for the following three months until the point when our compartment comes in." From there, we only proceeded to … I employed a pack of physical work to collect our crates and after that realized that in the event that we would scale this, difficult work was not going to be conceivable. I couldn't contract enough specialists to do this to scale.
I started in December, started dealing with what sort of assembling gear we would need to do these containers and the methodology that we've taken to seal the plate into the cases is exceptionally exclusive and in certainty we've protected that thought and we've connected for utility licenses and we had custom fabricated and designed from the beginning machines to really do that. It should be a 18-week construct and it ended up being a 24-week expand on that gear thus we'd recently gotten it introduced in the course of the most recent month and started to truly start scaling up our publicizing to begin to top off that item time on our assembling hardware.
Felix: That's stunning. My math is correct and the estimating was the equivalent in those days, you essentially manufactured a 20 to $30,000 per month in the initial 20 days. Would you be able to give us a thought of what amount of it's developed to from that point forward?
Chad: Yeah. We keep on simply include each and every month. We've extremely exploded the most recent 60 days in view of our assembling hardware. I expect by October first of this current year, we'll do $2 million in income in our initial a year.
Felix: That's astounding. This returns to the plain start of the seeing whether this is practical or not by running those Facebook advertisements. What's happening with you? How did this occur in the initial 20 days where you had such dangerous development ideal out the door?
Chad: I think it was on account of we had a one of a kind item and we were truly taking care of an issue that feline proprietors had or surely a comfort factor that feline proprietors needed. I think we tackled an issue and we gave an accommodation. When we ran the promotions, our change rate was entirely high. We had here and there where we were changing over 10% of the movement to deals and we completed a quite great job of observing it and taking a gander at it and understanding our informing and what we expected to change and enhancing our checkout channel et cetera. No doubt. It truly was amazing to us. We didn't sincerely believe that we would get as much footing as fast as we did and when we saw that, we truly knew we had something and we expected to additionally put resources into it.
This Facebook fellow we expedited, he sort of adopted this strategy where it was this blend of some animation stuff that we had done in the past before we truly had propelled to some PowerPoint stuff and tossed in some music to it. It extremely only sort of … It really looked super awful. Both Nate and I were much the same as, "Gracious my gosh, we can't put this up. There's simply no chance we can put this up. It looks so awful. It doesn't mirror our image." He said to us, he stated, "Trust me. I've been doing this for quite a while. There's a workmanship to this and you have to make it resemble it's sort of more purchaser delivered and stuff," and something like someone sent. We resembled, "Affirm, we will confide in you yet we're just confiding in you for like seven days since we simply don't have the foggiest idea about this mirrors our image." Apparently it worked and he realized what he was doing in light of the fact that we got tons and huge amounts of offers and it went around.
From that point forward, we've cleaned things up. Our Facebook advertisements are currently centered more around purchaser tributes. We most likely get 25, 30 per day of constructive tributes from individuals just self-assertively sending this stuff to us. We're concentrating our advertisements now fundamentally on that and we just do recordings. Facebook recordings are far more powerful than static recordings and Facebook will even disclose to you that. We just do recordings and we've lessened our recordings now from a one-minute video to a 30-second video since we were finding that our customers were basically viewing the initial 15 seconds of our video and after that they were either leaving or they were clicking and going to our site. A moment wasn't helping us so we chose to concentrate just on 30 seconds and we were running two distinct recordings.
The principal video, the initial 15 seconds is concentrating more on that passionate interest so it's concentrating on a human snuggling up to their feline. There's some pleasant music. They're in that comfortable setting in their home and after that the second 15 seconds is discussing the litter box and our litter and you are very brave coming up discussing it's eco inviting, biodegradable, keeps going an entire 30 days, smell free, that kind of stuff. The intention is to drive individuals to our site. We're not attempting to enlighten them everything concerning our item however we're endeavoring to make some passionate interest, grabbing their eye through felines which we're focusing on feline proprietors and they all affection felines with the goal that catches their eye. At that point around 15 seconds on the item and afterward utilizing the site to truly get in and portray the item and we're seeing we think some quite high or better than expected transformation measurements from those that are going to our site to those that are buying.
Felix: Got it. You are utilizing recordings today and you're likewise utilizing tributes. Are those tributes likewise video based or would they say they are content of client audits?
Chad: Yeah, they're content of client surveys. In case you're on your Facebook news channel, you'll be looking through and you'll go to our promotion. At the highest point of the advertisement is the header and afterward we have a little declaration that is in print from a client and after that underneath that is the video.
Felix: Got it. You made reference to that the plain first advertisements that you folks were running, they look terrible to you. Would you be able to depict somewhat more about this? What do you think it was successful despite the fact that to you tastefully it didn't look great?
Better believe it, it was only sort of low spending plan. You even observe them in theaters presently, right, these low spending motion pictures that do genuine, genuine well and it's stuff that reverberates with individuals. I would simply say it was somewhat of a low spending plan cunningly awful video that made it seem as though it was somewhat self-delivered and similar to a client had created it and was passing it around via web-based networking media.
Felix: I see. I surmise that clean, that TV review cleans, individuals promptly have this response that it's a business so they likely disregard it or would prefer not to share it. Who needs to share a business? On the off chance that it's something that resembles it's delivered by an individual purchaser, at that point it's substantially more benevolent and additionally welcoming for individuals to really give it a possibility.
Chad: Exactly. Better believe it. Well said.
Felix: Yeah. This methodology, it clearly worked for you. Why not stay with this model? Why not stay with this thought of making a low spending plan basically looking video?
Chad: Yeah. We most likely could and I feel that organizations experience stages, isn't that so? All things considered, I'll utilize Dollar Shave Club as an ideal precedent. indeed, our Kitty Poo Club, I've considered Dollar Shave Club till I've been blue in the face. I've actually perused everything that is freely accessible on Dollar Shave Club since they've had such a fruitful model. In the event that you investigate their first video that became a web sensation that looked the manner in which it did and it was a phenomenal video and from that point forward they've developed into likely somewhat more expert recordings. In spite of the fact that we're in our beginning periods here, we're advancing into being somewhat to a greater degree a cleaned brand and we're getting a considerable measure of footing now via web-based networking media. It was an extraordinary begin yet it wasn't the means by which I needed to speak to the brand or the organization longer term.
Felix: Got it. That bodes well. You specified that you all previously began with one-minute recordings, at that point you chop down to 30-seconds and you talked about first driving with a passionate side of the pitch and afterward discuss the highlights and usefulness of the item. That other 30 seconds that was removed, what did you removed? What are a few things that you see different promotions that are on Facebook or anyplace that the business visionaries may squander their prospect's time with?
Chad: Yeah. I think a considerable measure of organizations invest excessively energy endeavoring to enlighten everything without exception regarding their item. Purchasers have a, limited ability to focus, particularly via web-based networking media. You must catch their eye in the principal couple seconds or they're simply going to keep looking down, particularly on Facebook, their news source. Seeing a cuddly feline that looks charming, that will catch your eye for a couple of moments and after that if there's something that is important there or there's an alluring or fascinating feature, it will make them watch somewhat more.
Strangely enough, and I may not get this measurement precisely right but rather I'll be in the ball stop, I trust it's around 78% of Facebook clients look through their news source with no sound capacities on. In the event that you have a Facebook advertisement that has a voiceover that someone needs to hear, you will miss out in light of the fact that a great many people don't have their sound on. It's imperative on Facebook advertisements that you really, in the event that you have voiceover that must be heard, that you have subtitles on so individuals can peruse it. I do this regularly. I sit on my love seat and I could have my sound on however I don't and I'll peruse subtitles on advertisements that I watch.
Felix: It resembles message on screen or would you say you are demonstrating that specific element?
Chad: Yeah. This is really message on screen and obviously we have the foundation pictures of video that is going on of the feline strolling into the container and afterward we say, "No smell, less cleaning," that kind of stuff that is springing up on the screen however you need to prop that enthusiastic interest up while you're teaching your group of onlookers and you truly need to do that in close to 30 seconds and some Facebook specialists will even let you know as meager as 15.
Felix: Right, bodes well. You made reference to before about how one of the greatest complaints that you were getting from the market was that they would state they could never purchase a litter box that is made out of cardboard and clearly once they got your item, they comprehended its estimation yet how could you persuade them to give it a shot in any case? How could you persuade them to give this cardboard litter box a possibility?
Chad: Yeah, we chose to offer an unconditional promise so no hazard preliminary of our item. Request it and on the off chance that you don't care for it inside the initial two weeks, we would discount your cash thus we put that huge and intense on our site and attempted to make it entirely basic and simple for clients to turn out and purchase our item with no hazard.
Felix: You made reference to before that there's 40 million feline proprietors out there, huge tremendous market. Is the market developing?
Chad: Yeah, the market is developing. There clearly is a more established populace that is maturing and felines are extremely well known among more established individuals since they're low support creatures contrasted with puppies and some different creatures. They're truly merciful. They're great mates. They're a fun creature as you're seeing an ever increasing number of individuals that are moving far from mutts, really, and into felines therefore, particularly among the more seasoned age.
Felix: What sort of counsel do you have for somebody that is keen on getting into the perhaps particularly feline consideration or pet consideration advertises?
Chad: There's a considerable measure of item out there. I would state you have to consider and comprehend feline conduct. I've completed a great deal of that and I've conversed with a considerable measure of my companions. Like I stated, I would love to claim a feline. I really owned a feline and I needed to dispose of the feline on the grounds that my hypersensitivities were so awful. I would state contemplate feline conduct and discover items that function admirably for felines. You can create items dependent on seeing a portion of that feline conduct.
For instance, our case absolutely understood feline conduct. You could go to any pet store at this moment and something that you could get for felines is what's known as a feline scratch cushion. Think about what a feline scratch cushion is made of. Cardboard. You would think normally I would never make a feline litter box out of cardboard since they pitch these things for felines to really tear separated. Better believe it. That would be the principal thing that would ring a bell in the event that you knew and comprehend that yet on the off chance that you knew and comprehend feline conduct, you would know they're regional, they're prevailing and they won't wreck their space. We made a feline litter box that is made of cardboard that no feline wrecks since we comprehend feline conduct. Regardless of whether it's for felines or whether it's for mutts or whether it's for some other kind of pet, understanding the conduct of those creatures and creating items that works with that creature's conduct I believe is fundamental to building up a decent item.
Felix: I believe it's fascinating that you go towards the genuine end client of the items as opposed to discuss the individual that would make that buy however it bodes well that you don't create item that the feline or the pet will be keen on, at that point there will be no recurrent clients, particularly essential in a circumstance based professional yours. I need to talk a tad about the site. KittyPooClub.com, I like the plan of this site since it looks more like a sort of long frame direct mail advertisement approach as opposed to a run of the mill internet business webpage. What was the reasoning behind the plan of the store, the site?
Chad: Yeah. I really give the majority of the credit to our innovative executive. He was the virtuoso behind the site and, similar to I stated, he has a long history of expert advancement in this space and he comprehends shoppers well. He comprehends practices. He comprehends structure and I came in with the old school folklore which was have a group of connections and have individuals navigate to various connections. That is not the structure that viable online organizations are doing any longer.
It's the looking over and, similarly as you stated, kind of that news channel since we're molded to Facebook or Instagram and we scroll so you get your data by proceeding to look down and you see at the highest point of our site, we have not very many connections. It's join the club, so's purchase the item and afterward on the off chance that you require help and bolster or in the event that you need to sign into your record however that is it. All that you will get is in one continuous parchment and that is only the conduct that customers are familiar with now and a considerable measure of your more present day locales, regardless of whether it be Apple to Amazon to Basecamp to Ever note. There are heaps of organizations out there now that are utilizing this sort of structure and Nate was extremely the one that urged us to go that course.
Chad: Good inquiry. I think most likely in light of the fact that we are another item that doesn't exist out there the present moment. Thus, you need to instruct the buyer. In case you're simply offering a water bottle, a standard water bottle, you're not going to fundamentally need to instruct the buyer on what a water bottle is. Everyone comprehends what a water bottle is. I either take a gander at it and I like its structure and I choose to buy it or not but rather you don't need to most likely reveal to me a mess of highlights and advantages about the water bottle, other than the Q water bottle which you did as of late on your web recording and I tuned in to … I didn't think about their item. It really worked since your web recording since that is an item that resembled, "Instruct me." It breakdown. It's made of an extraordinary silicone material etc. With our item, it's a dispensable litter box that goes on for multi month. That is not something that is accessible on the commercial center now.
Felix: What about applications? What sort of applications do you use to help maintain the business and run the store?
Chad: Yeah. We utilize a lot. For one thing, Shopify, we are embrace devotees of Shopify. We likewise love a great deal of the module applications that work successfully with Shopify. To begin, we utilize Recharge which is a membership reoccurring income application that works with Shopify and we couldn't do it without them. We've attempted various other membership installment stages and revive is by a long shot the best. We utilize [Klaviyo 00:45:45] for the majority of our email advertising. This has been significant for us. Off camera, it enables us to imaginative powerful email streams that are activated off of both Shopify and in addition Recharge so we like that it capacities with a portion of our different applications that we have incorporated off camera into the site.
We likewise utilize it in reality just propelled this over the most recent 30 days and that is the Kitty Coins rewards. This prizes clients or our present individuals for prescribing us to other feline proprietors and joining. The new individuals that join, they get remunerated. They get rebates and after that the client or part that suggested them additionally gets compensated. Grin has an extremely viable item to enable that to flawlessly occur in the background. That has paid for itself many occasions over in the principal month for us.
We utilize Privy. That is the coupon that springs up when you originally go onto our site that gives individuals a rate off of their first request. That has been extremely powerful for us in catching messages. There's various individuals that will come in, they'll give us their email address and they won't join and afterward we have an entire email battle that at that point gets jump started that goes out and focuses on those individuals that didn't join since now we have their email address and we caught that through the Privy stage so that has been viable for us.
We additionally FOMO and you'll see numerous Shopify locales out there utilizing that today that springs up saying such and such, Felix just purchased two boxes a hour back and he's in Toronto, Canada. That only sort of brings believability, that, "Goodness, heaps of other individuals are doing this, as well," thus the more individuals you get purchasing all the time, the more these things begin streaming. We observed that to be extremely compelling.
At that point we utilize it for demonstrating surveys on our item pages and that is been to a great degree viable. I would state those are most likely the best applications that we utilize and have totally incorporated into our site.
Felix: Very cool. Converse with us a smidgen about your everyday on the grounds that you specified before that you had a current business. Despite everything you have it and now you likewise run this. How would you structure your day to complete the most conceivable?
Chad: Yeah. Its' hard. It resembles any business visionary, correct? You're doing long days, early mornings, and late evenings. It's particularly trying for me since I'm maintaining different organizations and I think the key is to get incredibly great individuals included and it's not … Especially these days right now when the economy is outrageously blasting, organizations are truly contending hard for ability thus how would you get the correct ability? That is the million dollar question that everyone's attempting to fathom to go out there and get the best individuals. For us, I think it truly has a considerable measure to do with authority and vision and do you make an agreeable work environment and do you have great colleagues that individuals need to work with. We think we have those parts and pieces set up that we're having the capacity to pull in great individuals. I truly give it over to our group that is influencing this thing to develop and go and despite the fact that I'm personally included, it appears now at each level, I couldn't be doing everything in the event that I didn't have a decent staff.
We have most likely, goodness, on the Kitty Poo Club side right now we have around 10 representatives. We had more than that when we were completing much more of building the containers by hand however now that we have fabricating gear set up, we have less individuals. That was quite cool since we simply had some regular steady loss of individuals tumbling off as our hardware was coming in. We really didn't need to release anyone. That simply occurred individually. Individuals had some different chances as that has been a great fit for us. We have sort of the correct work constrain set up right now for the quantity of clients we have and we'll build that as we keep on developing.
Felix: Got it. KittyPooClub.com is the site. You got the financing. You put resources into assembling. What's the following turning point that you need to reach as a business?
Chad: Yeah. We need to keep on developing that month to month supporter base and after that I believe that we will move into some different kinds of litters. We're completing a considerable measure of R and D right now on different kinds of litters that we accept will work adequately with our container. We hope to grow a base of that since silica doesn't work for each and every feline out there thus we trust that we can at last offer an item that will work for each feline and each circumstance. That is the following stage and after that I think we'll keep on being developing into different things that felines like that we incorporate into with our case. We're doing a portion of those at this moment.
We have the open door for individuals to buy hostile to following litter mats. You'll see that on our site in that spot before the container. At the point when a feline leaves the container, on the off chance that they have any litter joined to their paws, it'll be gotten in that tangle. We offer custom scoops that have been created particularly for our litter. I see us getting into other subordinate items that are a solid match for us that we can keep on pitching to our client base and develop from that point.
Felix: Awesome. Energizing occasions ahead. Once more, KittyPooClub.com is the site. Much obliged to you such a great amount for your time, Chad.
Chad: Thank you, Felix, for having me on your show. Incredibly welcome it.
Felix: Here's a sneak look for what's in store in the following Shopify Masters scene.

Southern Airways (im Außenauftritt verkürzt Southern) war eine amerikanische Regionalfluggesellschaft mit Hauptquartier auf dem Flughafen Atlanta.

Geschichte

1943 – Gründung und erste Jahre
Southern Airways wurde im Juli 1943 von Frank Hulse gegründet, nahm den Flugbetrieb aber erst am 10. Juni 1949 auf. Anfänglich führte die damals in Birmingham (Alabama) ansässige Gesellschaft ausschließlich Gelegenheitsflüge (Ad-hoc-Charter) aus. Im Mai 1955 erhielt das Unternehmen eine dauerhafte Betriebsgenehmigung zur Aufnahme regionaler Liniendienste. Im Jahr 1959 flog die Gesellschaft mit einer Flotte von 13 Douglas DC-3 rund 30 Städte in den Bundesstaaten Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina und Tennessee an.

Bis zum Jahr 1965 wurde die Anzahl der angeflogenen Zielorte verdoppelt und der Geschäftssitz auf den Atlanta International Airport verlegt. Zu dieser Zeit bestand die Flotte aus 16 Douglas DC-3 und 20 Martin 4-0-4. Ein Jahr später bestellte die Gesellschaft ihre ersten drei Düsenflugzeuge des Typs Douglas DC-9-10. Anfang 1973 setzte Southern Airways 11 Douglas DC-9-10, 4 Douglas DC-9-30 und 17 Martin 4-0-4 ein. Im gleichen Jahr erwarb die Gesellschaft weitere 13 Douglas DC-9-10 von der Delta Air Lines.

1970er-Jahre – Schwierigkeiten
In den späten 1970er-Jahren kam Southern Airways in Schwierigkeiten. Zwei Zwischenfälle (Southern-Airways-Flug 932 und Southern-Airways-Flug 242) vernichteten die gute Sicherheitsbilanz der Fluggesellschaft. Bessere Autobahnen wie das Interstate-System und die zunehmende Bereitschaft der Passagiere, zu weiter entfernten Flughäfen zu fahren, schädigten Southern Airways. Die dramatischen Preiserhöhungen für Kerosin in den 1970er-Jahren machten die Routen schließlich nicht mehr rentabel.

Ab 1979 – Fusionen
Am 26. April 1979 genehmigte die US-amerikanische Luftfahrtbehörde Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) die Fusion von Southern Airways mit North Central Airlines zur Republic Airlines. Der Zusammenschluss wurde am 1. Juli 1979 vollzogen.

Republic Airlines kaufte Hughes Airwest, bevor sie selbst am 1. Oktober 1986 von Northwest Airlines aufgekauft wurde, die 2008 wiederum mit Delta Air Lines fusionierte.

Douglas DC-9-14, DC-9-15, DC-9-15F, DC-9-31, DC-9-32F

Zwischenfälle
 Am 1. Januar 1968 verunglückte eine Martin 4-0-4 der US-amerikanischen Southern Airways (Luftfahrzeugkennzeichen N251S) bei der Landung auf dem University-Oxford Airport in Oxford (Mississippi) (USA). Die Maschine, die sich auf einem Positionierungsflug befand, setzte noch vor dem Landebahnanfang auf, woraufhin das Fahrwerk zusammenbrach. Alle drei Besatzungsmitglieder überlebten. Das Flugzeug wurde irreparabel beschädigt.

 Am 14. November 1970 wurde eine Douglas DC-9-31 auf einem Charterflug der Southern Airways (Luftfahrzeugkennzeichen N97S) kurz vor der Landung wegen Unterschreitung der Entscheidungshöhe bei schlechter Sicht in einen Hügel nahe Huntington geflogen. Alle 75 Insassen starben.

 Am 4. April 1977 musste eine DC-9-31 der Southern Airways (N1335U)  wegen Ausfalls beider Triebwerke während eines Gewitters auf einem Highway in Georgia notlanden. Während der Notlandung starben 62 Menschen an Bord des Flugzeuges und acht Menschen in einer Tankstelle, die von Trümmern des Flugzeuges getroffen wurde. Je eine Person am Boden und ein Passagier starben ein bzw. zwei Monate nach dem Unfall (siehe auch Southern-Airways-Flug 242).

Back in May I blogged about a new initiative in Cheddar that Gorge View Cottage had got behind and helped set up. Well on Friday 4th September it was formally launched. Cheddar Walking is the name of the organisation that will be developing and promoting a quality walking experience in and around Cheddar for visitors and residents alike. Most importantly we have satisfied the tough requirements to achieve full Walkers are Welcome accreditation, a quality mark for over 100 destinations across the UK where walkers are assured of a warm welcome by businesses and community alike, and with plenty of maintained paths and walking guides to help people explore the well-known and not-so-well-known walks around the area.
The very active steering group have checked and tested seven walks for the launch - everything from a short 30 minute walk near the gorge and caves, to the iconic 2.5 hour gorge walk, and including a wheelchair/buggy friendly walk around the reservoir. All of these are downloadable and printable from the website, but for all Gorge View Cottage guests these walks are all ready in the special folder that includes lots and lots of take-and-use sheets for enjoying the area.
Next year we'll be co-organising a 3-day walking festival in Cheddar over the August Bank Holiday so if you want to stay for all three days and make the most of it then better think about booking early.
Weston-Super-Mare is our local seaside town, just 12 miles away or a short bus ride. Not really noted for cutting-edge events. Well that has all changed this last few weeks. The global Bristol phenomenon that is Banksy (an anonymous graffiti artist) secretly developed and curated a special experience called Dismaland - a not very subtle parody of Disneyland.
It all took place in the rather dismal setting of the old Tropicana on Weston-Super-Mare (WSM) seafront - a big open quadrangle built out on to the beach from the promenade that was once a slightly down-at-the-heel open-air swimming pool (or "lido") that even earlier was probably quite an attraction in its own right in WSM. But for many years it has been a slowly decaying eyesore on the seafront with a sequence of botched plans to turn it in to something modern and up-to-date. Well it seems Banksy saw it as the ideal location for his dismal show. And the whole experience was funnily awful, starting with the queue management staff, and security guards, and stewards all who were glum, bored, rude and apathetic. Not a smile amongst them. Inside were art exhibitions and tawdry takes and spoofs on the kind of underwhelming items you might get in any small theme park. Many artists (some were really big names like Damien Hirst) had all made works of art especially for the show, all of them with some cutting or ironic comment on modern society. Outside the visual jokes continued from wind power, to boat refugees, to a darkly lit eerie tableaux of Cinderella crashed and dead in her pumpkin carriage as she tried to escape paparazzi on scooters (shades of Princess Diana).
Certainly absorbing it took myself and friend (an art teacher) over four hours to take it all in (and have a refreshment stop). And only £5 to enter IF you could get hold of a ticket. Because the pulling power of Banksy is extraordinary and this has become a very hot ticket to have.
If you were lucky enough to have been here and got in then hopefully you'll realise that whilst this one part of (North) Somerset was very dismal (and darkly humorous) the rest of Somerset is anything but.

The need for long-term care – not just medical care, but the general help and support often required for such everyday activities as getting dressed, washed, eating, going to the toilet and general mobility – of course, differs from one individual to the next.
Might long-term care pensions provide a solution to the problem of meeting long-term care costs?
But if there is one thing that unites everyone as they grow older, it is the concern about long term care costs.
The fears are hardly surprising. The UK Care Guide estimates that the weekly cost of long-term care in a residential home is likely to be at least £250, rising to £1,000 a week for homes offering higher standards of accommodation and a further 20% to 25% on top of those basic costs if nursing support is also required.
Worries escalate still further with the realisation that if you own assets – including your home – of more than £23,500 your local authority is unlikely to offer any financial assistance towards the cost of long-term care.
On the 7th of December 2017, the Telegraph newspaper reported that the government had stepped back from a previously announced intention to cap lifetime social care costs for any individual at £72,000.
Instead, it has promised consultations on a thoroughgoing reform of social care provision in the UK.
The idea of a total care costs cap has not gone away, however. A former pensions minister has suggested that such a cap becomes part of what he calls "long-term care pensions".
In a speech reported by City AM on the 19th of February 2018, the former minister, Steve Webb, suggested the creation of products providing long-term care pensions. These might be drawn down upon retirement, he suggested, in much the same way as a regular pension, but with the specific purpose of insuring against the lifetime cost of an individual's care requirements.
In addition to a government-regulated cap on an individual's total lifetime care costs, the former minister also insisted that payments into such an insurance scheme would need to be tax-free, but might represent a way for millions of Britons to start saving for the long-term care they may need in their old age.
The availability of long-term care pensions might encourage people to start thinking about the financial provision they need to make when their health begins to fail, and support is required to help them with essential, everyday activities such as getting dressed and washed, going to the bathroom and generally taking care of themselves.
Whilst this suggestion appears to have merit, government ministers have yet to respond, and it remains to be seen to what extent – if at all – the innovative proposals are taken on board during the current consultation process on meeting long-term care costs.

Q: Mercurial hg identifies unchanged files as modified I switched to a branch and
hg revert --all

then I wanted to import a diff file with
hg import [filename]

However, I got "abort: uncommitted changes". So I typed
hg st

It turned out that I had several modified files.
But I tried with
hg diff -g

Only a blank line showed on the command prompt. And both
hg revert --all --no-backup

and
hg up -C -r [revision]

are not working. I also tried to delete those files and then revert them, switch to another branch then switch back, but those files are still identified as modified.

A: I ended up in this situation today, too.
I worked around the issue by running hg update -C null to empty the working folder, then hg update [revision] for the revision I wanted.
