Please refer to this thread (not the your biggest complaint thread anymore) when you see we have an issue with the site. If your not happy with the crediting post here. Or if you don't like something else post here. Please give us feedback, we will try to fix it yo meet your needs!
Yeah, I'm not too happy with crediting. Most of the offers that say credits within one day doesn't really ring true. I did Mens Health over a week ago and I never got credit for it, doesn't really matter now because I was forced to do another offer in its place. One of my referrals did the pyschics offer the day before the site went down for updates and it hasn't credited. Another referral of mine did two offers on Thursday and neither one is credited.
The psychic offer now takes around 3 days to credit, along with a few others it says.
Alright, thanks for clearing that up. I also see that you added new offers which is always good.
My biggest complaint is crediting too. I have one ref who did not get credit about 10 days ago now, and then another who did 4 offers on this past wednesday the 9th right before you went down and only 2 credited so far.
Yeah, I did the psychic offer about 2 days ago. I put in a credit request, but I was unaware that it had been switched to 3 days.
I am still waiting for credit for doing the Video Professor offer. I completed this offer April 22nd. I did credit request May 2nd. It says request was sent to the affiliate. How long does it take to receive credit for offer? I sent copy of confirmation email with headers.
This is the only complaint I have----problems with offer credits.
It is very frustrating waiting this long to be credited. Thankfully the trader I am trading with is very patient.
Soon we will have Instant and more accurate crediting!
I have never had any problem with the gret customer service, fast approval, or high instant payouts. I think the one thing for me is the offer crediting as well. It seems to be more hit or miss lately.
We try to get in all responses with in 1 day. Please AIM us to reset your offer status.


'Kim has been treating me for several years in a most professional manner. Not only is she competent but has a friendly and informative approach to what could be considered a 'tricky' system to those of us unfamiliar to acupuncture. I am still working full time in a stressful environment and I have Kim to partly thank for this, she helps me to control physical stress on my spine/neck and helps to keep my energy levels balanced. Thank you Kim, please don't move away!!"
"Kim is extremely professional and conscientious, and you never feel rushed when visiting her for a treatment, which unfortunately is not always the case these days with other therapists.I have found the acupuncture coupled with Tui Na very beneficial in easing back and hip pain.I would not hesitate to recommend Kim."
"Kim's acupuncture has proved very helpful in treating my whip lash injury and digestive issues. The accumulative effect of the treatments was substantial and I can only describe it as rejuvenating and gently re balancing. I would recommend her without hesitation and trust her knowledge and professionalism. I see acupuncture as something I will continue to a go back to, as it supports my general health so effectively."
"I first visited Kim in October 2015 with persistent shoulder pain. I had never visited an acupuncturist before and was a little apprehensive. However, Kim immediately put me at ease and I was very impressed with her professional approach and advice. After several sessions with Kim, my shoulders are completely pain free and I am delighted with the treatment I received. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kim to my friends and family."
"I have a slipped disc in my neck which presses on a nerve causing extreme neck & shoulder pain, dizziness and numbness in the hand. I had various medical procedures and 12 sessions of physiotherapy which gave me no improvement. Then acupuncture was recommended by my consultant. At my first appointment Kim questioned me very thoroughly, not just about the acute pain in my neck and shoulders but to find out about my whole body. Each week at follow up treatments I was asked about specific pain I was experiencing so each treatment was individually tailored to my needs. Over the last year acupuncture has helped me with menopausal symptoms and dealt swiftly with a nasty cold. I felt immediate relief from day one and now after a series of appointments I often have days where I can forget my problem. Gradually over time symptoms have reduced, I can now take a plane journey which used to be awful but now I am now able to travel pain free. I would definitely recommend Kim, as acupuncture has changed my life from one with constant pain from something as simple as sitting in a chair to often forgetting it completely. My condition is such that I will not get better but it is such a relief to know that Kim is available to relieve that pain."
"I originally made an appointment with Kim for shoulder/upper back pain (the result of an old whiplash injury) and the migraines I suffer from. However, the sessions coincided with a very stressful time at work and Kim not only provided treatment for the physical pain I was suffering but also helped me to manage the stress I was under and I always left the sessions feeling uplifted and relaxed. Kim's is very intuitive and will ensure that you are comfortable with any treatments before continuing. I found her to be extremely flexible with fitting appointments around my long work commutes and her East Ilsley clinic is the perfect tranquil retreat! At the end of my treatments I felt like a new person with a marked improvement in both the shoulder/upper back pain, a reduction in the number of migraines I suffer and a healthier outlook on life! I would have no hesitation in recommending Kim."
"Six years ago I damaged my knee, and following an operation I was told it was very arthritic and nothing more could be done so I would need a replacement knee. Since that time I have been trying to delay this replacement for as long as possible. About six months ago I started to visit Kim who was highly recommended by another client. The knee pain is much relieved, and I have considerably more mobility and stability in the joint so I can walk further and am much more mobile.
In addition I have problems with my digestion which have not yet been diagnosed, and also a heart arrhythmia which Kim is also treating. I find her holistic approach to my conditions refreshing as conventional medicine views patients as a series of conditions. Whilst these conditions cannot be cured, the acupuncture I receive helps me to manage them."
"I have found Kim to be a kind, sensitive and thorough acupuncturist. Since seeing her, my symptoms caused by anxiety have all but ceased. I visit Kim intermittently to manage my anxiety at times of stress and I always come away feeling grounded and in control again. Having never had acupuncture before, I was a little nervous, but I needn't have been. Kim explained what she was doing and I found the whole experience very relaxing. I would happily recommend Kim to family and friends."
"I sought out Kim after a bereavement that left me on the edge and struggling to find the parts of myself I needed. Both the community acupuncture and private sessions proved to be very helpful. I often get to an appointment feeling strung out and by the time the needles are in I can already feel myself settling. When everything is shifting around you, being able to find a small amount of time to have a treatment that brings you back to yourself can be a lifeline. Kim is a very sensitive and encouraging practitioner, I always feel in safe hands."
"Kim's acupuncture has transformed my life… I visited her because of the impossibleness of my migraines and she has made them manageable. She has transformed my menstrual cycle, cleared up sciatica and given me smoother existence. And I'm certain she helped clear a friends leg ulcers pretty speedily!! All sounds bonkers, yet her acupuncture has impressed me more than I would/could have expected."
"I have used many acupuncturists over the years and find Kim to be one of the very best. You get so much from each appointment, help, advice and continued support with follow up e-mails. Her positive approach is uplifting and her dietary advice is inspiring. I have had endometriosis for 2 years and since seeing Kim in June 2015 my pain management is greatly improved using far less conventional pain relief. She also helps my general wellbeing (PMT). After each session I feel calm and emotionally stable. Kim has helped change my life for the better and I always look forward to her treatments. I highly recommend her to anyone."
"I decided to try acupuncture out of desperation after struggling with hayfever and failing to find much relief from prescribed medication. Kim immediately put me at ease through her attentive, charismatic and professional manner - offering explanations and ensuring I felt comfortable at every stage. During the course of my three sessions over three weeks I felt like the intensity of my symptoms decrease - I never anticipated such direct progress! Furthermore my assessment indicated some secondary complaints with iron deficiency for which Kim was able to provide me with dietary and supplement advice. Since following the recommendations I feel an energy restored that I had been missing since opting for a vegetarian diet four years ago and also a greater sense of control over my health. I will be forever grateful to Kim for her help and forsee return visits in the years to come."
"I visited Kim after suffering from painful and debilitating IBS for a number of months. After six sessions of acupuncture the symptoms were almost completely eradicated and I felt much better. Kim has a warm, approachable manner and really put me at my ease. She obviously has a huge knowledge base to draw upon and was able to tailor my treatment to the way I was feeling each time I saw her. I'm very grateful and can't recommend her highly enough!"
"I've been a patient of Kim's for several years. Acupuncture is a great opportunity for your practitioner to treat your entirety. From diet, sleep, musculoskeletal and anxiety. I find having regular treatments help maintain my physical and emotional well being."
"Kim is very talented and intuitive and makes a tangible difference to the quality of my life and my day-to-day energy as a whole. Kim has been my practitioner for over a year although I have benefitted from acupuncture for the past 26 years. I highly recommend her."
"I suffer from chronic fatigue. My life has always been a life of tiredness to one degree or another. After being treated by Kim my strength has increased massively. My quality of life has improved so much I would say that Kim's treatment has changed what I can & cannot do. She is a very talented, accomplished person who is now fortunately part of my life."
"I have had acupuncture with Kim for various reasons, but the most affective was after an addiction, which not only helped my body, but also a stronger way of thinking."
"I frequently visit Kim for treatment and I highly recommend the facial massage. I always find it to be a deeply relaxing experience leaving my skin so soft and bright - its wonderful and a great way to treat yourself! Kim's professional and friendly manner puts me at ease every time."


To celebrate a decade of "10 Trends," our latest report revisits 10 of the most compelling macro trends we've identified.
Ten years ago, J. Walter Thompson made the pioneering move to set up what we now call JWTIntelligence, with the purpose of identifying global consumer trends and interpreting what they mean for brands. In the years since, our annual "10 Trends" report has become widely known. To celebrate a decade of "10 Trends," our latest report revisits 10 of the most compelling macro trends we've identified—trends whose impact will be felt in 2015 and beyond as they continue to unfold, the ones shaping societal mood, behaviors and attitudes.
This report explores where these trends stand now and where they're headed, bolstered with insights gleaned from a survey of consumers across 12 markets and a spectrum of industry experts and innovators. The survey covered a total of 6,063 adults in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Greece, India, Italy, Japan, Thailand, the U.K. and the U.S.
Everything Is Retail (from 10 Trends for 2013): Anything and everything will be a retail channel as mobile connectivity unites the digital and physical worlds, and brands find ways to merge discovery and purchase opportunities.
Food as the New Eco-Issue (10 Trends for 2012): "Sustainable" is becoming a new buzzword in food as today's educated eater comes to better understand how food choices affect the environment and what consumers, brands and governments can do to drive positive change.
Mobile Device as the Everything Hub (10 Trends for 2009): Mobile phones are truly an "everything hub" as more things get digitized or connected and as people take to the smaller screen to watch video, spend, shop, track their health, learn, play and more.
Going Private in Public (10 Trends for 2013): With privacy increasingly elusive, people are struggling with how to maintain a vibrant digital identity.
Buying the Experience (10 Trends for 2007): As the desire to "do" rather than "have" deepens, consumers are seeking ever more novel, shareable and amplified experiences.
De-teching (10 Trends for 2011): As people grapple with tech's role in their lives, there's a sense that the negative effects will outweigh the positive if we don't find ways to use it more mindfully.
Predictive Personalization (10 Trends for 2013): Big Data analysis, artificial intelligence and other new technologies are creating novel ways to anticipate and cater to individual needs.
Queen Trumps King (10 Trends for 2008): Women are moving ahead as gender dynamics change rapidly in the home, the workplace and culture, and as determination strengthens across genders to engineer greater equality.
Retooling for an Aging World (10 Trends for 2010): The full impact of the demographic shift from young to old has yet to be felt: Brands will need to do much more to adapt for older consumers—a cohort that's rebranding aging altogether.
Cooperative Consumption (10 Trends for 2008): The sharing economy has grown up, while also giving rise to a backlash. Although this new business model is a serious threat to some brands, others are finding creative ways to tap into it.

Treatment of spasmodic torticollis by a psycho-motor retraining: A method developed 100 years ago by Henry Meige
March 26, 2012 June 17, 2015 Dr. Marie-Hélène MarionLeave a comment
I was invited last week to lecture at the University of Liege ( Belgium ) about the understanding of dystonia by Henry Meige, a French neurologist . I went back to his original publications and found that he advocated in 1907 a psycho-motor retraining ("discipline psycho-motrice") for the treatment of spasmodic torticollis…
The Magic Mirror, Magritte, 1929
I was invited last week by Professor Gustave Moonen to lecture at the University of Liege (Belgium) about the understanding of dystonia by Henry Meige, a French neurologist.
I went back to his original publications and found that he advocated in 1907 a psycho-motor retraining ("discipline psycho-motrice") for the treatment of spasmodic torticollis. It was at the time when there was no routine use of anticholinergics and Botox injection for cervical dystonia was not even a blip on the horizon. I could not resist to give you the translation of this therapeutic approach that I found quite inspiring…
1-The patient becomes actor of his treatment: "I don't say the patient is cured, but the patient has cured himself". This treatment is based on regular immobilizations and movements in front of a mirror; the patient has to be supported by his family and his doctor, as these daily exercises require a lot of effort and determination from the patient. "The goal of the treatment is to correct the abnormal postures, the put at rest the hyperactive muscles and to learn the control of the motor acts."
2-The patient needs to have a regular life, going to bed at regular times. The patient is told that the course of the disease will be capricious, that he will have to perseverate and that the exercises will be eventually beneficial.
3-The patient had to exercise in front of a mirror 3 times a day; the patient is sitting, back non supported and hands flat on a table. The mirror is divided by 1 vertical line going through the middle of the face and 2 horizontal lines, through the alignment of the eyes and through the base of the neck above the shoulders, in order for the patient to be aware of the movement of his head. The patient is asked to focus on the point of crossing of the first 2 lines.
4-Two types of exercises:
1-Immobilization: for 5 seconds 10 times with 15 seconds rest in between each immobilizations, increasing of 5 seconds every day the immobilization time.
2- Movement: slow and smooth movement, without saccade of the head in rotation, lateral flexion, flexion forward and extension; also movements of the shoulders, arms and trunk and exercises of relaxation of the muscles.
Then also in front of the mirror, exercises of writing, reading, breathing and speaking and daily tasks exercises.
5- Cervical dystonia has a good prognosis:
Henry Meige was convinced that over the years the cervical dystonia always settle down, with the dystonic spasms becoming less severe and less frequent, until they disappear; the patient is left with only neck stiffness. He did not give any figure of proportion of patients who improved, but they were patients followed for more than 5 years.
6-Since the 80's, physiotherapy for cervical dystonia has been developed by Jean-Pierre Bleton in France, but still remains a French specialty despite individual effort to develop it abroad.
Botox injections had become the first line treatment for cervical dystonia,, leaving the patient in the passive expectation of his injections every 3 months.
The mirror is still a very important tool in the therapeutic approach of neck dystonia as the patient is very inaccurate when assessing the position of his head, thinking that his head is straight when in reality the head posture has a 20 degrees tilt or rotation.
May be it's the time for patients with cervical dystonia to become actor of their treatment and to look for a therapeutic strategy including Botox injections and "psycho-motor retraining " without forgetting the role of the mirror, like Magritte, a Belgium painter…

Don't push your dystonia!
March 7, 2012 June 17, 2015 Dr. Marie-Hélène MarionLeave a comment
Push up and Press up have became part of the life of young adults…
Dr MH Marion explains why weight lifting is not advisable in cervical dystonia patients…
1-Push up and Press up have became part of the life of young adults. Going to the gym is a healthy and an advisable way of keeping fit in a urban society, which expect us to be sitting all day long in front of a computer and to be in full shape for climbing mountains.
However, it's more recent that weight lifting to reinforce selectively muscle strength and to modify body shape is part of the routine of ordinary people, who are neither athletes, nor body builders. Weight lifting can quickly be part of the life style, with addictive personal challenges to lift heavier and heavier weights.
2-Cervical dystonia is a neurological condition, affecting young adults, resulting in an unbalanced activity of the neck muscles. Some muscles are hyperactive, and inhibit their counterpart on the other sides (reciprocal inhibition); for instance a patient with an involuntary rotation of the head to the right (right spasmodic torticollis) will have a large , hyperactive left Sterno-Cleido Mastoid muscle and a thin right Sterno-Cleido-Mastoid muscle. For a better understanding, read the blog "What makes my head turn?".
The treatment of cervical dystonia is based on Botulinum injections, which correct this disequilibrium by relaxing the hyperactive muscles and on physiotherapy by reinforcing the inhibited muscles.
3- Is weight lifting contra-productive in patients with cervical dystonia?
I had the opportunity to treat few patients with cervical dystonia who were adept of weight lifting practice. These patients require larger doses of Botulinum toxin, even if the small number of cases doesn't allow any scientific conclusion. This could explain by the fact that the exercised muscles became larger and stronger.
But the question is which exercises have an impact on the neck muscles and are some exercise worst than others, by targeting neck muscles involved in the dystonia?
I had the opportunity to discuss resistance training exercises with a specialized exercise instructor , Mr Rajah James who gave me a reference book " Strength training anatomy" from Frederic Delavier. Every resistance training exercise is analysed in terms of functional anatomy with detailed illustrations of which muscles are targeted for each exercise. It's an amazing book full of details and drawing, that I will strongly advise to anybody interested in exercising against resistance.
4-. Exercises to avoid at any cost:
The neck muscles are involved in the erect posture of the neck, in another words keeping the neck straight; any weight lifting will tense the neck muscles to stabilize the neck during the effort.
More specifically, shoulders muscles such as Trapezius and Levator scapulae elevate the shoulder but also are involved in the rotation, lateral flexion and extension of the neck.
Lateral Arm Raises and Shoulder Shrugs (Machine and Dumbbells shrugs), have to be avoided at any cost; they both reinforce the Trapezius in his upper and anterior part and in addition the shrugs reinforce the Levator Scapulae.
Back Press, Front Press, and Dumbbell Press are reinforcing the Trapezius muscles in its upper part.
Therefore I advise strongly against any weight lifting exercise in case of cervical dystonia;it can worsen the dystonia by reinforcing the dystonic muscles and increase the muscle unbalamnce and also it can partially compromise the effect of the Botox injections.
5- Physiotherapy for cervical dystonia
The retraining of the cervical muscles, which are becoming less active because of the dystonia, and the stretching of the overactive muscles are a very important part of the treatment. Jean-Pierre Bleton in Paris has written extensively about his original approach of physiotherapy with dystonic patients.

The Bali's dancers head posture in patients with neck dystonia.
January 24, 2012 June 17, 2015 Dr. Marie-Hélène MarionLeave a comment
Sometimes the analysis of the posture of a patient with cervical dystonia can be tricky; For instance the horizontal translation of the head is a movement that the dancers from Bali can do side to side so graciously. For us European it's far from natural to dissociate the movement of the head from the neck in a side to side shift. Dystonic patients sometimes have their head shift to one side ….
The horizontal shift of the head.
Sometimes the analysis of the posture of a patient with cervical dystonia can be tricky; For instance the horizontal translation of the head is a movement that the dancers from Bali can do side to side so graciously. For us European it's far from natural to dissociate the movement of the head from the neck in a side to side shift. Dystonic patients sometimes have their head shift to one side without a lateral tilt and complained of limitation of their active head and neck movements in daily life. How to analyse this dystonic posture is very important when treating the patient with Botulinum toxin injections.
Professor Reichel from Germany kindly sent me 2 weeks ago the latest English version of his book: Therapy guide spasticity-dystonia, which is a very comprehensive and practical guide of the use of Botuinum toxin in these spasticity and dystonia and reflects his vast clinical experience in these fields.
He illustrates in details the horizontal shift of the head with the underlying principle that the role of the muscles in head and neck posture depends of their insertion either on the cervical spine ( Levator scapulae, Scalenius) or on the head itself , mastoid, linae nuchae ( Sterno-cleido-mastoid, Trapezius, Splenius capitis).
The horizontal shift of the head to the right for instance will occur if at the same time the head is tilt to the left and the neck to the right. Prof Reichel uses the terminology of left laterocaput and right laterocollis.
The right levator scapulae and the right scalenius are responsible of the right laterocollis and the left Sterno-cleido-mastoid muscle, the left cervical portion of the Trapezius, and the left Splenius are responsible of the left laterocaput.
It seems complicated to follow but it's quite obvious when examining the dystonic patient with the Bali's dancer head posture.
But is this posture a primary dystonic posture or the results of an adaptation of the patient 's neck posture with a left laterocaput in order to keep the eye line straight when looking in front? There is a reflex loop between eye movement and neck muscles (the cervico-ocular reflex- COR), which with other reflexes prevents visual slip during head and body motion. But this reflex had been found weak or absent in cervical dystonia.
There is still a lot of unexplained observation in dystonia. Fortunately it does not stop neurologists to treat their patients with cervical dystonia with Botulinum toxin injections, based on a careful analysis of the posture.

What makes my head turn?
What makes my head turn? Find out with Dr Marion, neurologist which muscles of the neck are responsible of turning the head on one side in neck dystonia
The neck muscles involved in the involuntary posture in cervical dystonia need to be identified for Botulinum toxin injections and physiotherapy. Here are some hints.
See the sketche below.
The head is placed on the top of the cervical spine and can pivot about 90 degrees on both sides. The pivot of the head is possible if one neck muscle is pulling forward and if another one on the other side is pulling backward.
The Sterno-Cleido-Mastoid (SCM) muscle
is the muscle pulling forward and rotating the head to the opposite side (right SCM turns the head to the left).
The Splenius Capitis
is the muscle pulling the head backward and rotating the head to the same side (left Splenius turns the head to the left).
The SCM muscle is a long superficial muscle easy to palpate on the front of the neck, and the Splenius is a deep muscle, difficult to palpate, behind the ear.
The shoulder muscles
In addition, there are 2 muscles which are both neck and shoulder muscles: the Levator scapulae and the Trapezius ; both lift up the shoulder, but the Levator scapulae is a deep muscle, responsible for the posture "shoulder up and forward " and works with the Splenius in turning the head to the same side (the left Levator Scapulae will contribute with the left Splenuis to the rotation of the head to the left, )
The Trapezius is a superficial muscle and can contribute to the rotation of the head to the opposite side, working together with the SCM (the right Trapezius will contribute with the right SCM to the rotation of the head to the left).
These muscles are the most frequent targets for Botulinum toxin injections to control the dystonic rotation of the head. The palpation of these muscles is important, as dystonic muscles feel more bulky under the fingers.
It may sound complex but looking at the drawing should make it simpler to grasp…

Cervical dystonia: what does the examination look for?
Cervical dystonia: what does the examination look for? Dr Marion tells you how the clinical examination is important to optimise the Botox treatment.
Patients with cervical dystonia described at onset an intermittent feeling of pulling in the neck muscles; over the months, the head take an abnormal posture. Torticollis is defined by the head (the chin) turned to one side; laterocollis by the head tilt toward one shoulder; retrocollis by the head pulled backward in extension, chin up; antecollis by the head flexed downward, chin down to the chest. These abnormal postures are due to the involuntary movement of the neck on the trunk. There is also the possibility of abnormal movement of the head on the neck, the head going forward like a goose or going backward giving a double chin posture.
The diagnosis of cervical dystonia is made on the involuntary movement and the abnormal posture of the head, and often delays by many years from the onset of symptoms. They are other rare causes of abnormal posture of the head that a neurologist can exclude by a neurological examination and investigations.
But like the BSP, every patient is different and need to be examined carefully to document precisely the abnormal dystonic posture to know which muscle is pulling too much! Then these muscles, which are responsible of the pulling, will be the one to inject with Botulinum toxin. The difficulty comes from the action of the neck muscles which are often mixed (rotating the head on one side and tilting on the other side), resulting in mixed abnormal posture of the head (predominant rotation with a degree of tilt and extension).
It's best to see the patient at his worst!
The patient is asked to walk, to stand up, to write or to lie down depending of the triggering factors. Usually the worst posture is achieved standing, eyes closed. The fixation of the eyes on an object helps the person to keep the head straight; when closing the eyes, the head lost the visual cue and shift to its maximal abnormal posture. Then to write down the degrees of the rotation, tilt, extension and flexion to be able at the next visit to assess the improvement under treatment.
It's also important to see the patient at his best!
I ask the patient if he has a "geste antagoniste" (French expression also used by the Anglo-Saxons neurologists!); for instance stopping the pulling in rotation by touching with one finger the cheek without exerting an opposing force to the movement. What's count is the improvement of the pulling by simply touching a part of the head or neck. It's also called sensory trick and it's a hallmark of the dystonic phenomenon.
Then when the posture is clearly documented, identifying which are the leading muscles behind, is based on surface anatomy (palpation) and functional anatomy (which muscle is doing what!).

As a danish art director, writing in english can be quite tough.
Grammar is not the same.
I don't know as much about english culture and phrases as people who have lived here their whole lives.
As you can see, I'm a bit (actually a lot) behind. However, last week's masterclass with Caitlin Breeze inspired me to improve my writing even though I'm a foreigner.
Her masterclass "writing in the past" was focused on how great people in history have influenced the way we write today and what they've done differently to everyone else that made people love their writing. This included how Lord Byron got famous for his tone of voice, how Arthur Miller's amazing love letters to Marilyn Monroe was something even I fell in love with because of his everyday-observation-details, to how The declarations of Independence made people fight. All because of how it was written.
As a communicator in advertising, we should write from one person to another. As Vikki would say "Human to human, not B2B or B2C".
A good tip I am trying to practice is to write in different tones of voice.
For example; read some love letters from the past, find a brand that could represent this tone of voice (look at previous communication plus the brand personality) and write something from this brand to the consumer.
Picture the brand as a person and the consumer as their lover. How would someone win your heart?
If I find it hard to picture the brand as a person, I write a persona. Maybe convert the brand to someone you know or feel as though you know and write it as they would do. Put on their glasses.
Overall, one piece of advice from Caitlin kept crossing my visual mind: "Pick out words that touch you." – This is where I needed to stalk the dictionary.
As I sat there, blown away by the deeper meaning of writing, I questioned what writing I as a Dane grew up with, that still touches me today. One specific story is something I can relate to even today. It's written by one of the greatest danish writers, H.C Andersen – you probably know him; He wrote "The little mermaid" and other famous fairytales Disney have visualized afterwards.
The one I've always felt connected to is "The ugly duckling" which is a story about a duckling no one likes because it's ugly until it grows up and becomes the most beautiful swan in the pond.
I kinda felt the same in a weird way before SCA. I knew I was good at being creative but no one really believed in me before I got into this school. Schools and creative directors have rejected me, so I've done everything I could to get to my goal in my own way. Whatever it takes. I just want to prove them all wrong and show how I can be the beautiful swan (or maybe penguin). And I have no doubt I am in the right place to do this now.
What I take from H.C Andersen's writing is his way of telling a story that is not too obvious but contains content people can relate to. Simple.
So now it's time to take on stories a little more advanced than fairytales, I've set myself the challenge to read some Hemingway.

What Are Little Girls Made Of? Jimmy Page, David Bowie, Lori Maddox and America's Sexual McCarthyism.
"Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown."
— Roman Polanski
"It doesn't matter, someone will probably kick my ass."
— Louis CK
So, the ayatollahs at The New Yorker, The Guardian and Esquire and other corporate media outlets, have discovered that Louis CK was not only giving hilarious and poignant guided tours of America's Lynchian inspired dark side and its hypocrisy, but that he was living there as well.
And while competing to see who can scream the loudest for CK's head to be cut off and placed on a pike to be paraded around a Cineplex at a mall near you, they've ignored the oily, lubed up gorillas in the middle of the nation's living room.
We refer you to David Bowie and Jimmy Page. And their Lolita, Lori Maddox.
Who? Well, Lori Maddox was a 14 year old waif/ingénue who spent a lot of her time somehow getting into clubs in LA back, as they say, in the day where she caught the attention of any number of men. Including Page, who had her kidnapped, and Bowie who had her. Before Page. Or perhaps it was the other way around but regardless they had her, which is another way of saying she was raped.
Because being under the age of consent means just that – any sexual act between her and an adult is by definition without her consent and therefore is defined as rape.
Bowie of course died recently and was given the full hagiography usually reserved for saints. And Page was honored at the White House – a regular treat for artists and a regular diversion for presidents who are normally to be found honoring mass murderers, like Henry Kissinger or third world despots with whom their financial pimps do business.
In the case of rock god Page, he went so far as to have Maddox locked up in various hotel rooms or his house for over a year, and then, having grown bored and distracted by an actual woman, he dropped her like a busted string on a guitar. Bowie, more louche but no less vile, apparently had her for one night along with her (underage) companion and some drugs.
She never complained and even went on to say she enjoyed it and was none the worse for it.
And we believe her and also believe it demonstrates the spectrum of human emotion. But that's not the issue. The issue is the blind rutting pig rage and hypocrisy of a society that has cannibalized Louis CK for asking – asking – to be watched while he jerks off, versus two other prominent cultural auteurs who raped a child. And have escaped even a cursory public flogging or even so much as a polite inquiry, not only into their behavior but into the feckless shit bag fire and brimstone hypocrisy factory of the media. Even Roman Polanski has been forced into some sort of exile. Granted it's a pretty fucking comfortable exile, that includes jetting between Switzerland and France and being honored by his peers, but it is exile none the less and when he dies the obituaries will not all be kind.
Which is not to say he hasn't made great films. It is the same issue one has, if their honest, with any number of other vile people who made great art but were great assholes. We've discussed this elsewhere and have dealt with the likes of expert Jew hater T.S. Eliot, and slave trader, Arthur Rimbaud. Feel free to make your own list.
What we're after here is to turn the critical lens on the hypocrites – the gatekeepers who swim in an ocean of pig shit, and demand that we ignore their stench while they scream at us about our need to take a bath. What we're after here is to highlight that grandmaster of being an asshole Charles Baudelaire was right when he said: a man must be allowed to contradict himself and: Brother hypocrite I salute you. In other words to exist is to be a hypocrite, but that doesn't mean raping a child is acceptable and shouldn't be punished. It does mean that along with the great power inherent in being gatekeepers, the media also has a great responsibility to not bray for blood, and instead to be measured and proportionate – to be thoughtful and intelligent.
For example consider that Ellen DeGeneres, stalwart champion of being decent, had Page on her show to talk about being Jimmy Page. But not a word about the kidnapping and rape of a child. The same collaborationist and situational morality has afflicted moral smurf Jimmy Fallon, professional curmudgeon David Letterman and most of the rest of the late night and daytime T.V. gatekeepers. And the ayatollahs at the New Yorker and the Guardian and the other bastions of liberal outrage.
And ask yourself where were the cops while Page and Bowie were playing real life Humbert Humbert to Maddox's fire of their loins? Are we to believe that the omnipresent Hoovers and the local cops had all of the "deviant" rock stars under surveillance except for Page and Bowie? Lennon, yes but those two, no? And as with the questions being asked about the eyes wide shut contemporary culture of the entertainment industry, we might ask, where the fuck was the long arm of the law back when these crimes were being committed? And then consider that in both cases, what Page and Bowie did has been an open "secret" for decades.
And what do we conclude about this?
That the template was laid down and hammered into place a long time ago. Salem was not an anomaly, it was a beta test and it worked to perfection. And so it gets repeated. The social tension builds. The hypocrisy eats away at everyone and corollary rage seeps into the nation's soul; becomes part of the shared cultural DNA. Until it has to be channeled somewhere. And since capitalism requires exploitation, and exploitation requires corruption, hypocrisy is essential and is force fed into the public like a toxin in the food chain. And of course the resulting anger can't be turned on the system itself because that could become a revolution. So instead the whores in the corporate media cover their mirrors and find someone who's guilty of just enough (CK) or more than enough (Weinstein/Spacey/Judge Moore) and they let loose the dogs of faux justice and then they light the cyber torches and the cyber stakes burn.
But it has nothing to do with justice. It has nothing to do with morality or honesty.
It does however, have everything to do with America.
For a brief look at Page's rape of a child, see the link below:
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/lists/the-10-wildest-led-zeppelin-legends-fact-checked-20121121/jimmy-page-worshipped-the-devil-19691231
And for a look at David Bowie, as a child rapist, see the link below:
https://jezebel.com/what-should-we-say-about-david-bowie-and-lori-maddox-1754533894
The first (that we are aware of) nuanced, thoughtful article on the ongoing shit storm:
http://www.nybooks.com/articles/2017/12/21/kick-against-the-pricks/
We note with wry amusement, a missive hurled our way today, by an irate reader who begins by informing us that before casting aspersions, we "have to understand groupie culture" from the early 70s. And, they insist:
"First of all Lori Maddox has always made it very clear she gave complete consent."
A point we made ourselves in the post, above.
Of course the irate knob, seems not to understand that "consent" is attached legally to being "of the age of consent" and therefore, Maddox was legally unable to give consent.
Another point, we made in the post, above.
This is followed by what we might charitably define as the "she was asking for it rationale" favored by gangsters, mass murderers, republicans, and rapists:
"You also have to understand Groupie culture of that era. Groupies who were underage dressed to look older and lied about their ages often using fake ID in order to get into clubs to hook up with stars. They knew what they were doing and what they wanted hence the reason they were Groupies in the first place."
In other words, the bouncers at the door failed, the bartenders failed, the waitresses failed, the undercover cops, journalists, mangers, and roadies all failed and the musicians were fooled – by a thirteen year old girl.
It's a valid point as after all, after that much coke, weed, booze, assorted painkillers, bennies, and downers, and no sleep, standing in the dark of a club, trying to tell who is putting a finger in your ass can be difficult. Thirteen? Feels like at least thirty-five.
This piece of sinister pretzel logic is followed by still more half truths, that stick the landing amid the empty bottles of lube and the jizz stains.
"Of course that didn't make it right but if someone looks older and they manage to get into a club for over 18s and they are up for sex ,then how are the guys supposed to know."
Here we have the battle cry of the wife-beater, and the rapist; the troll who, believes, "no" means, "hit me" and "I want it in the ass."
How are they supposed to know?
Let's see: breast size, height, hips, voice, face, sense of humor, pubic hair, and general experience.
But our aggrieved correspondent has this to say:
"It's not right" but rape of a child who wanted it, is oaky.
After all, since the outraged correspondent has already established that thirteen year old's can offer consent, it follows logically that if she is sneaking into a club, then, ipso facto, she's "up for sex" and therefore, she's fair game.
This of course is the "gateway drug" argument of your average conservative goon, except instead of the psychotic delusion that weed means you'll soon be bolted to a crack pipe, this genius is peddling the idea (we use the word loosely) that sneaking into a nightclub means you want to be fucked by men twice your age, and they have no responsibility for what happens because, by definition, it's the child's fault.
Followed by the dismount based on the reptilian notion that the poor, unaware sods, can't distinguish a child from an adult woman, can't refuse the seductive wiles of a child, and even if they could, she's obviously gagging for it, so what's a poor drugged up multi-millionaire rock god to do, except, take her back to his hotel and keep her locked up for a few years.
But wait, there's more:
"Can (you) prove (asks outraged correspondent) that Bowie or Page knew that girls age?"
Having opened with the assertion that they could not tell her age, and that even if they could, she was clearly asking for it, our correspondent flips the script and claims that as we can't prove she was a child, the lads are off the hook.
Except of course, no one involved, not Bowie, not Page, not Page's manager, or Maddox herself, have ever denied the story, or denied that she was underage. Given the evidence of photos showing Maddox, clearly underage, at clubs, with any number of musicians, including the members of Zeppelin, we'll ignore the temptation to say something about people selling, Fake News.
Our correspondent however is not done, having been moved to offer us a near epic in defense of child rape:
"Its a very different situation to deliberately seeking out and raping a child and should never be labeled the same because all that does is insult and take away the credibility of genuine victims of sexual abuse and seriousness of it. Maddox also claims to have slept with Iggy Pop, Mick Jagger, Robert Plant, Jeff Beck and numerous others whilst underage. Yet we dont see any of them being lynch modded*."
Here of course is the total collapse of any pretense of logic.
First, she fooled everyone.
Second, she was asking for it.
Third you can't prove she was underage.
Fourth even if she was who care it was part of the "culture"
Which we're pretty sure, was Polanski's defense for drugging and anally rapping a child.
And consider this gem of twisted logic and hermaphroditic morality:
"Maddox also claims to have slept with Iggy Pop, Mick Jagger, Robert Plant, Jeff Beck and numerous others whilst underage. Yet we dont see any of them being lynch modded*."
Right, the difference being that these rapscallions had the children delivered like pizza, versus your average low rent child rapist, who stoops to actually going out and hunting for their victims.
And the last line is a whopper as it seems to be a plea for either everyone to be lynched or, to be selective in one's outrage about moral reprobates acting like Medici popes, in a race to the bottom of a whore house – after all, says our correspondent, if the other bastards were raping young girls, and no one is calling for their scalps, then you should leave poor old Bowie alone.
And, since Maddox also claims to have had sex/been raped by a who's who of talent, she can't be believed, even though she was asking for it, she fooled everyone, and it was just how things were done back then.
In other words: blame the victim, exonerate the rapist, and scream: if she floats, she's a witch!
"I would recommend that you actually do some proper research and fact checking before writing such a nonsense, offensive article. Not only is this deeply offensive and insulting to Bowie's grieving family and friends remember he has a teenage daughter of his own."
"Proper research" in this case being the multiple eyewitnesses including Page's manager, and the photographs and the host of tell-all biographies documenting the carnival of adult men fucking children, while assorted mothers signed off as pimps. And of course our faithful, if myopic correspondent who tells us other people confirm the stories, and besides, that's how things were back then, and she was asking for it and so on.
Followed by the inchoate plea for sympathy for poor old Bowie's family because, sniff, he has a daughter of his own.
Followed by a series of conflicting time-lines which said correspondent uses to establish that Maddox is unreliable, which we don't doubt, in a the facts seldom have anything to do with the truth, sort of manner, though we do doubt the reliability of the missive's author in as much what he sent us is a train wreck of twisted syntax, pretzel logic, blame the victim sophistry, and pleas for understanding tucked inside denunciations of anyone who points out the g-force exceeding tolerance of hypocrisy that is the current zeitgeist.
We end where we began – with wry amusement. The excavation of systemic misogyny, rape culture, sexism, and the twisted justifications that people use, leave us straddling the line between misery and hilarity.
The world is full of people like this outraged mollusk, who is clearly either in an intellectual stupor or a moral coma or perhaps, both.
*We assume they mean "mobbed" but we let the typo stand.

Social anthropology entails a profound understanding of how and why people do the things they do. As a Social Anthropology student at Kent, you explore how people work, use technologies and negotiate conflicts, relationships and change in different societies around the world.
Social Anthropology with French provides an excellent opportunity to develop your language competence throughout your degree as well as spending a year studying language and anthropology at one of our partner institutions. Students who undertake a year abroad often comment on how their experiences significantly shape their future plans, their academic insight and feel the opportunity enhances the overall university experience.
In the first year, you take modules that give you a broad background in the subject. The programme begins with an introduction to the history of anthropology, the foundations of biological anthropology, anthropology and conservation, and global perspectives on relatedness. Additionally you take a compulsory module in French.
In your second and final years, you take compulsory modules that develop your language and specialised anthropological knowledge and skills. You can also choose further modules from a wide range of options.
Your third year is taken abroad at one of our partner institutions where teaching is in French. Modules are primarily anthropology or related subject modules, however, you also undertake relevant language modules and are allowed the equivalent of one 'wild module' per term.
If you're interested in this programme then visit our Year Abroad webpage which includes students talking about their experiences of their year abroad programme.
Alternatively, you can take our three-year Social Anthropology degree, our four year Social Anthropology with a Year Abroad or four-year Social Anthropology with a Year in Professional Practice.
The module introduces students to the major figures who have shaped the discipline of Anthropology (both socio-cultural and biological) and take them through the historical development of the discipline. Major thinkers such as Marx, Weber and Durkheim on the one hand, and Linnaeus, Lamarck, Darwin and Mendel on the other, are introduced, and their influence on and contribution to the discipline traced. The module will provide an historical outline of major schools of thought within Anthropology - evolution, diffusionism, functionalism structuralism, postmodernism, socio-biology, evolutionary psychology - in both Britain and the USA, and examine the relationship between socio-cultural anthropology and biological anthropology from an historical perspective.
This module introduces students to the range of basic research skills required across the range of the School's BA and BSc programmes, whilst also introducing the key areas of school disciplinary expertise. Students work in groups to collaboratively produce a 3 minute video addressing a question that requires knowledge of the diverse expertise of the school. The question will change in relation to the contemporary concerns and research interests of the school. An initial lecture introduces the course and collaborative video research that serves as the central methodology to communicate the results of qualitative and quantitative research on the question addressed. Lectures in the first part of the course introduce the key disciplinary and interdisciplinary resources to answer the question.
Following lectures are divided between qualitative and quantitative methods. The course concludes with an open screening of all video projects.
'European Societies' surveys the social anthropology of contemporary Europe, with a focus on Western European urban and rural societies. The module explores changes in European societies since the end of the Cold War, including conflict related to the reorganisation and 'fortification' of Europe's southern and eastern borders. We read ethnographies exemplifying contemporary approaches to studying industrial and post-industrial societies. We critically review key debates in the study of community and identity politics; nationalism and ethnic conflict; borders, migration and transnationalism; tradition, modernity, and heritage; tourism; industrial and post-industrial work; new religious movements; and biosocialities. A further focus is interrogation of the concept of 'Europe' itself, through analyzing the process of 'Europeanization' within the EU, and issues raised by the financial crisis; and through presenting ethnographic vantage points from which students can rethink the idea of 'Europe' for themselves. The module includes a critical history of anthropological study of Europe and the Northern Mediterranean, with special attention to the role of the University of Kent in the development of the regional literature. It is designed to be accessible to anthropology students, and those interested in European studies more generally.
Ethnicity' and 'nationalism' are matters of contemporary urgency (as we are daily reminded by the media), but while the meanings of these terms are taken for granted, what actually constitutes ethnicity and nationalism, and how they have been historically constituted, is neither clear nor self-evident. This module begins with a consideration of the major theories of nationalism and ethnicity, and then moves on to a series of case studies taken from various societies around the world., and then moves on to examine a number of other important concepts—indigeneity, 'race', hybridity, authenticity, 'invention of tradition', multiculturalism, globalization—that can help us appreciate the complexity and dynamics of ethnic identities. The general aim of the module is to enable and encourage students to think critically beyond established, homogenous and static ethnic categories.
Law is often assumed to stand 'outside' of society, either because it is 'above' us or even 'behind' us, as in 'society changes too fast for the law to keep up'. This module proposes law as an ethnographic subject, that is, a field of action governed by rather than governing social and cultural sensibilities. If, according to a classic cliché, anthropologists look for relationships while lawyers look for rules, the module will examine how social relationships can come to appear rule-like to legal and anthropological studies alike. Since lawyers in fact contributed to the early formation of the discipline of anthropology, anthropology itself may be seen as the product of a legalistic classification of human relations. The curriculum will therefore proceed through the history of the relationship between anthropology and law as disciplines and through ethnographic material from different legal environments. In doing so it will consider subjects such as language, gender, class, and religion and their effects upon the experiences of people involved in processes of dispute and its resolution. Finally the module will investigate how well law 'travels' between societies, and between different levels of the same society: for instance, how do concepts such as legal pluralism, the cultural defence, and universal human rights affect the theory and practice of law?
You spend a year between Stages 2 and 3 taking modules at one of our partner universities, where courses are taught in French. Students must achieve specified requirements before being permitted to proceed to the next stage. Students must have achieved at least a 60% average in Stage 1 and 2 to proceed to the Year Abroad. Students who fail to qualify for progression to Stage 2 or the Year Abroad will transfer to the 3-year version of the programme.
Examples of modules available during your year abroad are available from the School of Anthropology and Conservation website.
In the unlikely event that force majeure prevents us from placing every student who meets the academic requirement, for example if a partner university is forced to terminate an exchange unexpectedly, and places become limited, the School/Schools concerned will weigh up applicant' academic performance, attendance and individual merit in order to decide who is placed. Individual merit would cover such things as commitment to the degree programme, participation and motivation.
The Year Abroad is assessed on a pass/fail basis and will not count towards your final degree classification.
For full details of the Year Abroad opportunities available to University of Kent students please visit our Go Abroad website.
Students will spend one academic year studying in a University with whom Kent has agreements for such exchanges. The purpose of the Year Abroad is to give students an opportunity to further their anthropological experience by living in another culture, as well as studying in a new HE context. Students develop a learning agreement (i.e. list of modules to be taken) with the module convenor (Year Abroad Coordinator) before commencing the year abroad. Students are registered for this module during their Year Abroad. During the year abroad itself students will follow the modules in their learning agreements at their host universities, therefore the curriculum will vary for each student, depending on the host institution and modules chosen. All students are encouraged to take primarily anthropology modules, or closely related subjects but are allowed the equivalent of one 'wild module' per term, as well as one language module, if appropriate.
In our most recent national Teaching Excellence Framework, teaching at Kent was judged to be Gold rated. Based on the evidence available, the TEF Panel judged that the University of Kent delivers consistently outstanding teaching, learning and outcomes for its students. It is of the highest quality found in the UK.
Our teaching is research-led as all our staff are active in their fields. Social and biological anthropology staff have been awarded national teaching awards, reflecting the quality of the undergraduate programmes.
Anthropology at Kent uses a stimulating mix of teaching methods, including lectures, small seminar groups, field trips and laboratory sessions.

Total Dreamcast: The Magazine That Never Was?
Like any new system before the rise of web-based media, the Dreamcast garnered a whole raft of print-based magazines designed to support the console and help to disseminate news, reviews and hype about upcoming releases. Even though the Dreamcast came equipped with the ability to browse the internet, the online world of the late 1990s was a whole different ballgame to the one we effortlessly surf today. For this reason, for most gamers - including me - magazines were the go to resource for news about the Dreamcast.
Here in the UK, there were plenty of Dreamcast magazines to choose from and we've pored over the majority of them at some point or another here at the Junkyard in the past. There was Official Dreamcast Magazine (known affectionately as ODM) from Dennis Publishing and we featured the alternative 'demo editions' from the pitching process previously. That magazine came with a DreamOn demo disc stuck to the font cover and cost the princely sum of £5 a pop. There were plenty of cheaper alternatives, including DC-UK from Future (the magazine that resulted from the failed pitch for the official license), Dreamcast Magazine from Paragon, Dreamcast Monthly from Quay, and Mr Dreamcast from Magical Media.
Mr Dreamcast is of particular interest to many collectors because it only lasted for two issues and was aimed squarely at a younger audience. Issue 1 came with a Fur Fighters water pistol, and I inadvertently bought it once while waiting for a bus and only realised my mistake when I took my seat and opened the magazine to be confronted with the type of prose usually reserved for a Mr Men book. Just to clarify, my copy didn't have the legendary water pistol stuck on the front, so I'm blaming that for tricking me into a purchase. Cough.
The hallmark of Exeter's finest export
It appears that there was to be another Dreamcast magazine available to discerning readers in the UK though. A magazine that was even advertised and from which review quotes were used to promote certain Dreamcast games. That magazine has become the stuff of legend and I only know about it because of the borderline obsessive work of one tireless collector and expert on the subject. That magazine is Total Dreamcast, a magazine that almost certainly exists somewhere in some form...but never saw the light of newsagents shelves...
Before we delve into the murky history of the magazine and speculate on the existence of a hard copy, let's first look at the evidence that Total Dreamcast ever actually existed in the first place. Total Control was a multi-format magazine that ran for just 11 issues between November 1998 and September 1999 and was published in the UK by Rapide Publishing. We took an in-depth look at each and every issue of Total Control in a two part feature in 2016 (find part one here and part two here), and Total Control is of particular interest to Dreamcast fans because even though it was multi-format, the magazine took quite a lot of interest in Sega's then upcoming system, devoting several covers to it and countless news articles and features.
Total Control ran for 11 issues...and loved the Dreamcast
Naturally, as a publishing house of many other console-specific periodicals, Rapide soon turned its attention to the Dreamcast and so a Sega-related magazine was planned. Following in the footsteps of other Rapide-based magazines such as the aforementioned Total Control, the Nintendo 64 focused Total 64 and a popular PlayStation magazine Station, Total Dreamcast was to complete the set for Rapide, so that the Exeter-based publisher had an outlet for every major platform as well as the multi-format catch-all. The reason I initially mentioned Total Control in the first place was that in issue 11 of that magazine, an advert was run on page 67 that announced the upcoming Total Dreamcast, with a launch date of September 17th 1999. Even more curious, is the fact that several other adverts were run in this period - not for the magazine, but for upcoming games - which actually used review scores and quotes from Total Dreamcast...a magazine that never actually hit news stands. Here's one for Millennium Soldier: Expendable:
Millennium Soldier advert published in Dreamcast Monthly,
showing Total Dreamcast review quotes
So the reviews were written, the magazine was being advertised in Total Control and the launch was set to (almost) coincide with the UK launch of the Dreamcast. And then...nothing. Total Dreamcast never saw the light of day. Rapide Publishing went into administration and all of its magazines closed before the September issues of any of its catalogue could be sent to retailers. The thing is, Total Control had already advertised Total Dreamcast as coming, and there were review quotes on advertising media for upcoming games.
So, the question remains: did Total Dreamcast ever actually exist as a magazine? And if it did, what happened to the copy that the editorial team worked on before Rapide went bust? At this point, I think it's only fair to bring in Matt Neilson, a man who is by far the most knowledgeable person on the subject of video game magazines I have ever met. Matt runs a website called SegaMags and he has amassed a collection of retro magazines so immense that I'm in awe. The real driving force behind trying to solve the mystery of Total Dreamcast is really Matt, and so I thought it was about time that we had some cold, hard facts regarding the magazine and whether or not there's a hope that it could actually exist in print or electronic form. Matt's main points are covered below in bullet points...
Computer Trade Weekly (CTW) reports on Rapide's closure in issue 757 (dated September 24th, 1999 - exactly one week after Total Dreamcast had been due to go on-sale). I've taken a photo of the article in question (see below). The wording and cover-date indicate that Rapide closed sometime after Total Dreamcast was due to launch; there had been no mention of Rapide in the previous issue of CTW (dated September 17th, 1999). This is a little bit puzzling, because if Rapide closed sometime after Total Dreamcast's launch-date, then it follows that Total Dreamcast should have made it onto store shelves.
Computer Trade Weekly reporting on the closure of Rapide
Mediatel also reports on Rapide's closure (you can read the article here). Interestingly, it shows a very low resolution cover-shot of the launch/dummy issue of Total Dreamcast. Note that this is not simply copied from the advert in Total Control - the colours are more vibrant, and it doesn't have the lens flare on the upper/right hand side. The Mediatel article is dated 24th September 1999 (which is perfectly consistent with the CTW article).
Print adverts included review quotes from Total Dreamcast. See the Millennium Soldier: Expendable advert in issue 1 of Dreamcast Monthly (see above). In this advert, we finally have a good (if somewhat small) look at the complete Total Dreamcast logo -- I really like the way they incorporated the Dreamcast swirl into the tail of the 'g' in 'Magazine.' The fact that the advert includes a review quote suggests that the review was actually finished and had been made available to various advertising agencies.
Total Dreamcast as advertised in the final issue of Total Control
Another advert includes a quote and review score from Total Dreamcast: this time, it's UEFA Striker. Using the Internet Archive, we can view the (now defunct) official UEFA Striker website's press page (viewable here). Notice the Total Dreamcast quote and rating.
Former games journalist and executive editor of Total Control Garth Sumpter said that he worked on Total Dreamcast. I spoke to him recently and he told me the following:
"Me and my team had worked bloody hard to put together what was, in my opinion, a rather excellent magazine. However, after having finished it, we were told that the print deadline had been put back and that we needed to update the contents. In fact, the printers were refusing to print it as the bill for other magazines was unpaid and consequently, after having put together two month's worth of coverage, Rapide went bust before the first edition of Dreamcast had been printed."
This suggests that the magazine wasn't actually printed. What's cool about Sumpter's recollection of events is that it explains the date-related inconsistency (specifically, it explains why Total Dreamcast wasn't released even though Rapide closed after the announced launch-date).
- Matt Neilson
So the conclusion is that Total Dreamcast was finished, it was delayed, and, ultimately, it didn't ever see a release. I've always wondered if some advance prints were made...though this is probably wishful thinking on my part!
The cover of the Total Dreamcast launch issue, recreated by Matt Neilsen
Pretty interesting stuff, I'm sure you'll agree. In summary, the facts point to Total Dreamcast issue 1 being finished and not being given a full print run before Rapide's demise. However, there is a footnote here. After trying to aid Matt in his quest, I did a bit of internet sleuthing myself and discovered a forum discussing defunct magazines of yore. I asked the question about Total Dreamcast and through a random flurry of exchanges I ended up conversing with Simon Phillips, the ex-editor of Paragon's unofficial and wildly popular Dreamcast Magazine. It turns out that he too worked on Total Dreamcast before moving on to head up Paragon's offering. Things got very interesting when Simon told me that he thought he remembered seeing a printed copy of the elusive magazine...but can't recall what happened to it. The plot thickens...
For those who are interested, Paragon actually went on to become Imagine, and Imagine was recently absorbed by Future (owner of Retro Gamer, Games Radar and Kotaku)...so technically it still exists in spiritual form.
For now though, the mystery of the phantom magazine remains tantalisingly close to being solved. Total Dreamcast was finished and there is (or was) at least one physical copy printed. Whether or not we'll ever get to read those reviews that were dangled so agonisingly close to our faces is a different matter. If this changes any time soon, you can rest assured that you'll read about it here.
Thanks to Matt Neilson, Garth Sumpter and Simon Phillips for their input in putting this article together. You can find Matt over at SegaMags or on Twitter here, and you can also help Matt in his quest to find every UK Sega magazine by going here.

No wonder it didn't get printed, it's got "Sonic Boom" on the cover!
It's weird to see that there were so many magazines for one (relatively short-lived) console. That said, I've only been subscribed to Game Informer and Nintendo Power, so I don't know how numerous console-specifc magazines are.
Brilliant article. I only hope that you can locate the issue like you located "The Barber."
Magazine looks and sounds very familiar. There were lots of different Dreamcast magazines with Sonic on the cover but if it made it to retail, I might have it. I bought anything and everything Sega in those days. I will have a look when not busy but it may take a while as I have hundreds and hundreds of videogame mags

This will terminate your app when the home button is pressed, instead of sending it to the background.

Chances are you unpack your weekly grocery shopping with as much thought as you give to Sunday's laundry. A triangle of Brie on the top shelf; milk in the left-hand corner with the garlic and dark chocolate. Be warned: research shows where you put your food can have a big impact on how you eat, so it's time to become fridge aware. Here's how to stack and snack yourself slimmer.
Ever open your fridge and feel like it's an out-take from TLC's Hoarding: Buried Alive? We know the feeling. What we bet you didn't know, though, is research from the Journal of Consumer Psychology found a cluttered fridge can crush your willpower. Weight-loss coach Nicky Anstey explains that in a busy fridge, the bright, attractive packaging of less healthy products distracts you from the more earthy colours of your fresh produce – there's a reason McDonalds chose a red and yellow colour scheme.
Both these colours have been proven to boost your appetite, particularly red, which signals ripeness and sweetness, according to research published in the Journal of Sensory Studies. So ditch the strawberry cheesecake and replace it with red- or yellow-hued healthy snacks. Pass the peppers, please.
"Place your healthiest snacks and food with the most nutrients at eye level," says eating and behavioural therapist James Lamper. "So if you get the munchies, they'll be the first thing you see when you open the fridge." According to a US study, you're 2.7 times more likely to eat healthy food if it's in your line of sight. If you want to go the extra mile, store your naughty treats at the back of the fridge and the bottom of the pile. A study led by nutritional behaviour professor Dr Brian Wansink suggests the more inconvenient the location of your chocolate, the less likely you are to reach for it.
A study published in the Journal of Marketing found people eat larger quantities of junk food if it's kept in clear packages. The same research also showed when your naughty treats are bite size, you're more likely to eat more. Our advice: buy the bowling ball of Edam rather than seductive mini cheeselings. And keep your chocolate and cheese in opaque Tupperware at the back of the fridge. Plus, if you can, make the containers blue. Studies show that blue is a common appetite suppressant.
A healthy snack can curb hunger throughout the day and keep you fuller for longer. Try make your snacks fruit and veg and ensure they're pre-cut – that way you're more likely to munch them. After hitting the supermarket, immediately wash, cut and store. Also place that tub of pre-cut veggies next to a tub of hummus or low-kilojoule yoghurt-dill dip. Carrot sticks? Bleh. Carrot sticks and dip? Mmm, much more appealing!
Kilojoule-conscious eating doesn't mean boring fare. Keeping an arsenal of diet-friendly flavourings inside the door of your fridge can make any meal moreish. Try mustard, low-sodium soy sauce, Tabasco and herbs like chives, thyme and rosemary. They can be loosely placed in cling film and popped in the warmest part of the fridge (one of the compartments in the door).

Ambry Genetics and its collaborators at HonorHealth Research Institute (Scottsdale, AZ), Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (Boston, MA), and University of Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh, PA), announced a prospective multi-site research study aimed to determine mutation prevalence, as well as psychological assessment and long-term follow up for treatment and care for pancreatic cancer patients with a hereditary predisposition to the disease. This study will gather valuable data for an underrepresented group of patients diagnosed with cancer carrying an extremely high mortality rate.
Pancreatic cancer represents 3.1% of all new cancer cases in the U.S., with only 7.7% of people surviving 5 years or more after their diagnosis. Several genetic syndromes caused by inherited gene mutations may pose a risk for pancreatic cancer, leaving an underlying genetic mechanism to be the cause in ~10% of all pancreatic cancer. High risk gene mutations, such as those in the BRCA2 gene, are identified in families presenting with a constellation of tumors (including breast, ovarian, pancreatic cancer) but may go undetected in families with only a clustering of pancreatic tumors or isolated pancreatic cancer cases.
Multi-gene testing allows simultaneous analysis of relevant hereditary cancer genes. Individualized medical recommendations may also be made for that patient's family members based on genetic test results, particularly with respect to pancreatic cancer screening and prevention.
APC, ATM, BARD1, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, BMPR1A, CDH1, CDK4, CDKN2A, CHEK2, EPCAM, GREM1, MLH1, MRE11A, MSH2, MSH6, MUTYH, NBN, NF1, PALB2, PMS2, POLD1, POLE, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51C, RAD51D, SMAD4, SMARCA4, STK11, and TP53.
"This study seeks to determine the role of genetic testing in an unselected pancreatic cancer population. Patients sometimes wonder why they get their cancer and the risk for their family members. This study plans to address this issue. Importantly, there is also the possibility that if certain mutations are identified in a pancreatic cancer patient that it could provide important information in regards to their treatment," said Randall Brand, MD, University of Pittsburgh principal investigator.
The study has begun enrollment at two sites already and includes male and female patients between the ages of 18 and 89 years of age, diagnosed within the previous 12 weeks with histologically or cytologically confirmed PDAC Stage I to IV.
More details about the study may be found at ClinicalTrials.Gov (NCT02790944).
"Our research team at Ambry is honored to be working alongside such accomplished investigators at the participating clinical sites to improve understanding of hereditary pancreatic cancer," said Virginia Speare, PhD, LCGC, sponsor investigator and Clinical Collaborations Specialist at Ambry.
Ambry Genetics engages in ongoing research, both internally and with collaborators. For a listing of peer-reviewed research publications. It is a privately-held healthcare company with the most comprehensive suite of genetic testing solutions for inherited and non-inherited diseases. Since 1999, Ambry has tested approximately nearly one million patient samples benefiting >94% of all U.S. patients covered by public and private insurers.
Ambry is dedicated to scientific collaboration by offering its rapidly growing database of anonymized genomic data (variant frequencies) free to the global medical research community to fulfill the promise of the human genome to cure or manage all human disease. Ambry is dedicated to the belief that human health should not be patented or owned, and genomic data should be freely shared so we can try to understand all human disease.


Recently there has been a string of vandalism toward student cars on campus. Many students are adamant that the college needs to put up security cameras pointed toward parking lots. Student posts on the WC app have even led President Jim to join the conversation.
The original post by Tylor Cooper sparked the debate.
Other students have shared testimonies regarding their cars being vandalized.
The dilemma has also sparked debate on proper uses of the app and ways in which students can create positive change.
Jim issued responses to several posts being made.
Tylor Cooper stated through a further app post that his intention was to make the issue heard for future students. Students continue to have varying opinions on the subject and how it may be dealt with. It is evident that all parties want the problem to be solved with the resources that are available.

[Chart Of The Week] Gold Is Breaking Out vs Stocks & Bonds
March 23, 2018 by JC
When assets are in strong uptrends, they're not just going up in value on an absolute basis, they also outperform their alternatives. Two obvious alternatives to investing your money in Gold are Stocks and Bonds. With the price of Gold flirting with new multi-year highs, we want to see how it's behaving vs the other asset classes.
The first thing that stands out to me here are the massive bottoms on both of these charts. We like buying smiley faces, not frowny faces. Do these look like bottoms or tops?
On top we have Gold relative to US Treasury Bonds using the two most liquid ETFs to represent each asset class. We've been pointing to the multi-year breakout in Gold vs Bonds since coming into the year. That was a very bullish development that has kept us interested in precious metals throughout 2018. On the bottom of the chart we have Gold relative to US Stocks, specifically the S&P500. This has all the makings of a failed breakdown and the path of least resistance in the GLD/SPY ratio seems much higher if we're above those late 2016 lows.
Again, if Gold is in an uptrend, it is going to be outperforming its alternatives. I think that's exactly what's happening here. We still want to be long Gold if we're above 1300. That hasn't changed. That 1550-1580 level looks like the next stop. We will reevaluate at that point, but a retest of those all-time highs above 1900 is definitely in the cards.
