New game character
Meanwhile, there are reports that the game publisher is now looking for ways to introduce a new character in the game, Fox.
It is noticeable that in the game, most characters are not based on the movies. Right now, Gun Media would like to add the iconic character in the horror survival game to honor actress, Gloria Charles. The actress portrayed the role in the movie and passed away in December 2016.
The only reason why the addition was not yet implemented is that Gun Media has not yet reached the actress' family.
Wes Ketner of Gun Media shared that they wanted to do something with Fox's character in the game. He also revealed that they have already tried tracking agents and even members of Charles' estate but was still unsuccessful until now.
Ketner seeks out for fans to help them out in this endeavor. The studio is asking fans to locate the actress' estate so proper talks could be started.
For Ketner, this is just a small gesture but they are determined to put Fox back to the Crystal Lake.

Illness On Thomson Spirit Cruise Liner
Hundreds Of Passengers Believed To Be Ill
Hundreds of passengers on the Thomson Spirit cruise liner are believed to have fallen ill, with many stopped from going ashore as the crew tried to contain the illness.
Specialists in travel law at Irwin Mitchell are now taking legal action on behalf of a growing number of passengers who travelled on the Iberian Delights voyage.
Madeline Nolan was one of the passengers affected. She ended up vomiting blood after being struck down by severe stomach cramps, sickness and diarrhoea which left her unable to leave her room for three days.
Lesley Jackson also said her holiday was ruined as she and her family were struck down by illness. When describing conditions on the ship she said: "People were dropping like flies. As the cruise went on, you could see trays of uneaten food building up in the corridors outside people's cabins."
Suki Chhokar from Irwin Mitchell, which is already representing 17 of the passengers, said he was shocked by descriptions of the conditions on the ship urged tour operator Thomson to learn lessons from the outbreak and make sure future travellers are not affected by illness outbreaks.
"It's hard to imagine what it was like for these poor passengers on board this cruise, trapped on board and then having to watch their fellow travellers falling ill around them," he said.
"What happened on this cruise is simply appalling. We are very concerned about the reports of widespread illness and hygiene complaints on board. It certainly sounds like more could and should have been done to reduce the risk of passengers becoming ill.
"We have already been instructed by a large number of passengers who are deeply disturbed by their experiences on board the Iberian Delight. As well as suffering very unpleasant short term illnesses, there is a significant risk that some of our clients will go on to suffer long term or permanent illness through no fault of their own. We have invited Thomson to admit liability and hope that they will do so quickly and work with us to fairly compensate our clients. If not, legal proceedings are likely to be commenced, something which we and our clients would like to avoid if possible."

How to Enhance Your Channel Strategy
Posted on November 29, 2022 by Joe Scoufis in Best Practices
As part of Solutions Review's Premium Content Series—a collection of contributed columns written by industry experts in maturing software categories—Joe Scoufis, the Global Director of Channel Development at Parsec Automation, outlines how companies can improve their channel strategy efforts.
Many tech vendors are only as good as their channel partners. Even with the most effective sales strategy, vendors who hope to expand their footprint across the globe must tap into the channel if they want to achieve a lasting presence in the marketplace. In manufacturing, for instance, a whopping two-thirds of revenue now comes from third-party channels, which underscores the value of prioritizing the partner experience.
Today's channel partners can do much more than simply connect customers with technology. With the right strategy and resources, a vendor can turn its channel partners into evangelists who proactively and enthusiastically recommend a product to customers. To convert channel partners into brand evangelists, vendors must re-frame both their channel strategy and product offerings.
Think of the Channel as a Dynamic Ecosystem
For a channel strategy to be successful, vendors must think of the channel as a dynamic, multi-directional give and take. Vendors must arm their channel partners with the tools, resources, and support they need to understand and appreciate their product. These resources should be comprehensive and available in different formats, including training sessions, marketing, outreach support, webinars, mentoring, annual summits, onboarding materials, or a knowledge base. Regularly sharing and updating these materials will set channel partners and vendors up for long-term success.
Just as no two customers are alike, no two system integrators are alike. Each may have different preferences for how they like to do business, and vendors must be open-minded and flexible if they want to collaborate effectively. Like much of the business world, a channel strategy is ultimately about relationships, and vendors must take the time to familiarize themselves with their channel counterparts to drive results.
Ultimately, a vendor's channel partners and system integrators are their business proxies. Vendors simply don't have the logistical capability to travel the world and be everywhere at once. Leveraging channel partners is the best way for a vendor to grow their business footprint and connect with customers, and it requires a holistic approach.
Give Your Partners the Gift of a Solid Product
Even if vendors have a terrific interpersonal relationship with their channel partners, it won't matter if their product isn't effective and designed for ease of implementation. Vendors can set their channel partners up for success by developing and maintaining a product that's as simple as possible to integrate.
System integration has the potential to create some serious headaches. For many companies, integrating previously siloed applications and data is their largest obstacle against digital transformation—and if they get it wrong, it could cost upwards of $500K to re-do the integration properly. As such, vendors must help their channel partners get it right. When channel partners can deliver a streamlined, non-disruptive, data-unifying implementation, they win jobs, instill confidence in their clients, and secure repeat business. To get channel partners on their side, vendors must ensure their product "wants" to fit smoothly into a broader software ecosystem for end-users.
No matter how efficient, successful, or industry-leading an individual product is, it won't have staying power if it doesn't integrate into an end-user's broader framework. Not only must vendors develop strong products that integrate well, but they must also continuously solicit and welcome feedback from channel partners on how successful their integrations are. If something isn't working as expected or has room for improvement, vendors must be receptive and take corrective action. If a product isn't performing and doesn't allow for necessary bug fixes and iterative tweaks, channel partners will quickly lose patience and opt to use different solutions instead.
To earn channel partners' trust and convert them to brand evangelists, vendors must deliver a superior product that plays well with others. If there are hiccups or inefficiencies that arise during the integration process, vendors must be receptive to having a dialog with their partners and must come prepared to troubleshoot and deliver on their promises for improvement.
What a Successful Channel Strategy Looks Like
With the right channel strategy in place, a vendor can grow from a local/regional provider to a global provider with broad name recognition among industry professionals. By developing, sharing, and updating helpful resources, vendors can ensure their channel counterparts will be well-versed on the ins and outs of their products, making it easier for them to address any questions or concerns customers may have. When it's time for implementation, vendors will make their channel partners' lives much easier if their product is primed for interoperability.
Ultimately, a successful channel strategy is about nurturing relationships based on trust. With the right resources and products, vendors can set themselves up for success with a channel ecosystem that unlocks new customers and revenue streams at scale. Eventually, vendors can build a degree of trust and reliability such that system integrators begin proactively offering and prioritizing their solutions without being prompted.
By providing an array of enablement materials and a steadfast product built with end-users in mind, vendors can convert their channel partners into brand evangelists who will be excited to introduce their products to new customers.

Shares of Herbalife are up more than 43% since the beginning of March.
And it looks like hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, the CEO of $19 billion Pershing Square, is back in the red on his infamous $1 billion Herbalife short.
Shares of multi-level marketer Herbalife ripped higher on Monday. The stock rose $2.89, or 6.86%, to end at $44.99.
In an interview with Bloomberg TV on March 13, Ackman said that Pershing Square "shorted the stock around $47 or $48." He also said that if you add the various expenses, the breakeven price was "something in the mid-30's."
The stock's trading well above that threshold right now.
Just last week, Herbalife, which sells weight loss shakes and nutritional supplements, won the dismissal of a shareholder lawsuit in California that alleged they lost money because the company misrepresented itself when it's actually an illegal pyramid scheme.
Pershing Square later commented in a statement that the court's decision "did not address in any way whether Herbalife is an illegal pyramid scheme, nor did the Court exonerate or bless Herbalife's business practices."
For more than two years, Ackman been very publicly crusading against Herbalife. It's Ackman's contention that the company operates as a "pyramid scheme" that targets poor people, especially in the Latino community. Ackman, who has said he will take this "to the end of the earth," is betting that Herbalife's stock goes to $0.
Herbalife has repeatedly denied Ackman's allegations.

Texas man goes to prison after purposefully hitting motorcycle
On behalf of The Zimmerman Law Firm, P.C. posted in Motorcycle Accidents on Tuesday, April 25, 2017.
A Texas man will go to jail for 15 years after he purposefully swerved his car into a passing motorcycle. A couple on the motorcycle was attempting to make a pass, when video footage caught the man swerve directly into their path. Earlier this month, a trial by jury convicted the man of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
The accident happened in October 2015, and the 68-year-old driver has been in jail since that time awaiting the completion of his trial. The man will stay in Hood County Jail until he is transferred to a Texas Department of Criminal Justice prison to complete the rest of his sentence.
The driver might not have been convicted if it weren't for video footage recorded by another motorcyclist that had been following the couple. The video shows the motorcycle passing the 68-year-old man's vehicle. Then, the vehicle jerked suddenly to the left and collided with the bike. Both the motorcycle driver and his girlfriend crashed onto the asphalt road and suffered injuries as a result.
The motorcyclists accused the man of striking them on purpose after the accident. In response, he yelled, "I don't care!" But later, he offered an explanation in court that he swerved because of a spider bite.
Video footage during a serious car accident can be very helpful to bring the at-fault party to criminal justice. Sometimes, Texas residents have "dashcams" that record roadway activity. Other times, video footage can be pulled from municipal surveillance cameras placed at intersections. This footage can also be used in civil court by car accident victims seeking financial compensation from an at-fault party for their injuries and other damages.

This World-Famous Chicago Skyscraper Can Sway Up to 3 Feet in the Wind
This content was created in partnership with Aerial Cities, a new show on Smithsonian Channel that explores America's most prominent cities from breathtaking heights. Watch the series Sundays at 8/7c.
From the day it opened in 1973 until it was eclipsed by Malaysia's Petronas Towers in 1998, the Willis Tower (Maiden name: Sears Tower) was the tallest building in the world. Constructing it was a major feat of engineering, because once you get a building that far off the ground, the wind can really start to mess with its structural integrity. And Chicago isn't called the Windy City for nothing.
Swaying In the Sky
Picture a piece of uncooked spaghetti inserted vertically into the ground so that it stands straight up, with a couple of inches of "foundation" underneath. Imagine giving the spaghetti a little slap. Most likely, it'll break. Now, picture the same piece of spaghetti, cooked and dangling from your fingertips. This time, you can slap the spaghetti all you want, but it will just flop around, never break.
The lesson? You gotta bend if you don't want to break. That's one of the principles behind the design of the Willis Tower. We've already told you about how the design broke engineering barriers, but there's one feature of the structure that we left out. The Willis Tower is designed to withstand the heavy winds coming off Lake Michigan, and that means that if you're standing at the top, you can feel it sway up to 3 feet (about 1 meter) in both directions before you should start to feel worried. Even on a calm day, the tower generally sways about 6 inches (15 centimeters) in both directions. For comparison, the Empire State Building is supposed to move about an inch and change even in the face of 100 mile-per-hour (160 kilometer-per-hour) winds.
But forget about being worried — you probably wouldn't even notice. Just search for videos of the Willis Tower swaying. You'll mostly find the interiors of offices, where hapless workers suddenly realize they're moving back and forth because their blinds are swaying and their water is moving on its own.
A New Way to Build
The tower's height and flexibility are all thanks to structural engineer Fazlur Rahman Khan's innovative tube design, which cut way back on the necessary material and made the entire building much lighter than anything of comparable size. Khan built the structure as a hollow steel tube instead of a solid column, an innovation that would guide skyscraper architecture for years afterward.
Winds aren't the only reason to build a hollow building. Architects all over the world have taken Khan's flexible principles to heart, allowing their skyscrapers to shift and sway and keep on standing even during severe earthquakes. In fact, many experts even think that modern skyscrapers could be the safest place to be during a major quake. It all just goes to show how a little outside-the-box thinking allows great things to happen.
For a sky-high view of Chicago's famous architecture, watch Aerial Cities Sundays at 8/7c on Smithsonian Channel or watch the first full episode now.

Eggners Ferry Bridge Main Span Placement Set for TUESDAY
AURORA, Ky. (Nov. 30, 2015) – A contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) plans to place a $20 million 550-foot main span on the new U.S. 68/KY 80 Eggners Ferry Bridge starting at 7 a.m., Tuesday.
As the steel truss starts the move to a permanent home on the new bridge vehicle traffic on the existing Eggners Ferry Bridge will be halted for up to 24 hours. The necessary detour via Interstate 24 and the Purchase Parkway will add 42 miles to a trip between Cadiz and Murray.
Movement of the 5.1 million pound arch will also trigger a halt of all commercial and pleasure boat traffic at the construction site.
Placement of the 110 ft. tall steel structure will require almost perfect weather with winds of less than 10 miles per hour. Engineers waited until late afternoon Monday to commit to the Tuesday move when winds are expected to be about 7 miles per hour out of the west.
Steel for the basket handle arch has been constructed and painted on barges at the east end of the construction site. The contractor and KYTC engineers spent much of the day running final system checks on the jacking system that will lift the new span into place.
Lifting the massive 550 ft. steel structure into place is expected to take 8 to 12 hours to complete on the following estimated timeline:
Move would start around 7 a.m., CST
River and lake traffic to halt for up to 48 hours
Highway traffic halted for up to 12 hours
The span will move to the center of the river over about an hour.
Another hour to move into position next to the main piers
About 2 to 4 hours to jack the span to the top of the piers
Another 1 to 2 hours to maneuver it into place and lower onto plates atop the piers.
Another 1 to 3 hours to remove the jack towers and remove the barges
Transportation Cabinet District 1 spokesman Keith Todd noted that things will move in slow motion over about 8 to 10 hours.
"We're recommending anyone who would like to watch the move to go to Cherokee Park. The folks at KenLake State Park have also very graciously agreed to open their campground which may provide the best viewing site for the event," Todd said.
Kentucky Transportation Cabinet personnel, the U.S. Coast Guard, emergency management agencies for surrounding counties, Kentucky State Police, other police agencies will assist the contractor will establish a 2,000-foot clear zone around the construction area during the all-day move.
Once the span is safely in place on the main piers, KYTC District 1 Chief Engineer Mike McGregor said in coming weeks the contractor should be able to more accurately calculate the time needed to place a concrete deck on the structure and determine when traffic might be moved to the new bridge.
A $131.5 million contract for the new Kentucky Lake bridge was awarded to Johnson Bros. Corporation, a Southland Company, in February 2014. Michael Baker Jr. Inc. and Palmer Engineering designed the unique, basket-handle tied arch model – among only a few dozen in the world.

PERFORMANCE OF MECHANICAL ROOT PRUNING OR HEDGING IN AN INTENSIVE ORCHARD
David C. Ferree
In 1981, four apple cultivars were established as a low trellis hedgerow on M.9 or free-standing central leaders on M.7 at the recommended or half the recommended spacing with the close planted trees either root pruned annually at bloom or hedged in August. Planting at half the spacing and annual summer hedging 2 sides decreased TCA 25% and canopy volume 51% with no effect on shoot growth, while annual root pruning decreased TCA 34%, canopy volume 50% and shoot length 25%. Planting at half spacing and either hedging or root pruning reduced yields per tree. Efficiency as measured by yield TCA was decreased by hedging and as measured by yield/m3 canopy volume was increased by both treatments with hedging having the greatest effect. The cumulative yield/ha was increased by both hedging and root pruning with no difference between them. Fruit size was decreased by close planting and root pruning caused a greater decrease than hedging. Close planting increased the number of spurs and shoots and LAI per unit volume of canopy with no difference between hedging or root pruning. `Empire' outproduced `Smoothee' and `Delicious' on the trellis and `Lawspur' had higher yields than any other cultivar in the central leader.

Root Distribution following 9 Years of Root-pruning `Me1rose'/M.26 Apple Trees
`Melrose'/M.26 apple (Malus domestics Borkh.) trees were mechanically root-pruned annually for 9 years at bloom to a 25-cm depth at 80 cm from the trunk on two sides. An evaluation of the number of roots of four size categories on the exposed wall of a 1.2 x 2-m trench located 1 m from the trunk indicated that root pruning caused a reduction in all root size categories. Roots < 1 mm in diameter were reduced 20% by root pruning, while the reduction in larger roots was nearly double this amount. The effect of root pruning on root distribution was greatest in the top 30 cm of soil, parallel to the location of the root-pruning cut. Roots below 30 cm were unaffected. The number of roots in all size categories in samples taken parallel and perpendicular to the row decreased linearly with soil depth.

Performance of Eight Apomictic Selections as Apple Rootstocks
The apple (Malus ×domestica Borkh.) cultivars Starkspur Supreme Delicious and Melrose were planted in 1987 on eight apomictic apple rootstock selections made in Germany by Dr. Hanna Schmidt and on M.7. Selections 2 [M. hupehensis (Pamp.) Rehd. parentage] and 8 [M. sieboldii (Regel) Rehd. parentage] were similar to M.7 in precocity, cumulative yield per tree, and yield efficiency, while the other selections with M. sargenti Rehd. in their parentage were slower to flower and had lower yields and yield efficiencies. Selections 2 and 8 tended to result in larger trees than M.7, while the selections with M. sargenti parentage were generally similar to M.7 in size. Except for trees on M.7 and selection 2, `Starkspur Supreme Delicious' developed more severe symptoms of internal bark necrosis (IBN) than did `Melrose', which normally does not show IBN. However, `Melrose' showed IBN symptoms on selections with M. sargenti parentage. IBN symptoms were positively correlated with leaf Mn concentrations. Influence of rootstocks on other nutrient elements, although significant, were small compared to the effect on Mn. A significant interaction occurred between cultivar and rootstock in their effects upon branch morphology, mostly because fewer flowering spurs and more vegetative spurs were observed on `Melrose' than on `Starkspur Supreme Delicious' when grafted on Selection 2. These apomictic selections offered no advantage over M.7 as rootstocks for apples.
In HortScience Volume 33 (1998): Issue 4 (Jul 1998)
Early Performance of Two Apple Cultivars in Three Training Systems
In 1987, `Smoothee Golden Delicious' (`Smoothee') and `Lawspur Rome Beauty' (`Lawspur') apple (Malus domestica Borkh,) trees were planted and trained as central leaders or palmette leaders on M.7 and Mark rootstocks or were planted as slender spindles on Mark rootstocks. `Smoothee' trees were larger and had consistently greater yields and production per unit trunk cross-sectional area (TCA) than `Lawspur' trees. Slender spindle trees had lower early yields per tree and TCA but had greater cumulative yields per hectare than trees in the other training systems. In the fifth and sixth growing seasons, `Smoothee' trained as palmette leaders tended to have higher yields per hectare then central leader trees. Training system had little influence on `Lawspur' tree yields. Limb bending in 1989 increased flower density in 1989 and 1990. Cumulative yield per hectare increased 11% as a result of limb bending of trees on Mark rootstock, but bending had no influence on trees on M.7 rootstock. `Smoothee' on Mark had higher cumulative yields per hectare with the palmette leader and central leader than either `Smoothee' on M.7 in either training system or any combination with `Lawspur'.
598 Response of Apple Rootstocks to Soil Compaction
Container-grown apple trees on a range of rootstocks were exposed to different levels of soil compaction created by changing soil bulk density. In 1998, with soil bulk densities of 1.0, 1.2, and 1.4, there was no interaction of rootstock and soil compaction for shoot growth of `Melrose' trees on 7 rootstocks. However, in 1999, with soil bulk densities of 1.0 and 1.5, a significant interaction on shoot growth did occur with six rootstocks. Shoot length of trees on M.9, M.7, and G.30 were less influenced than G.16, M.26 and MM.106. A bulk density of 1. 5 caused a decrease in dry weight of shoots, leaves, and roots of trees on all rootstocks. Compacted soil resulted in a decrease in leaf concentration of K and B and an increase in Mg and Mn.

Performance of Eight Apomitic Selections as Apple Rootstocks
In 1987, `Starkspur Supreme Delicious' and `Melrose' were planted on eight apomitic apple selections made in Germany by Dr. Hanna Schmidt for use as rootstocks and compared to trees on M.7. Selection 2, was the most precocious, followed by trees on M.7, with selections 1 and 7 being less precocious than M.7. Selections 2 and 8 were 25% larger than M.7, while 1, 3, 4, and 7 were similar in size and 5 was 15% smaller than trees on M.7. Selections 2 and 8 had the highest cumulative yields/tree, followed by trees on M.7, with all other selections having lower yields. Internal bark necrosis (IBN) developed on the `Delicious' trees, with the most-severe symptoms on selections 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, with less-severe symptoms on 8 and very little present on trees on M.7. IBN was correlated with leaf Mn levels. In 1995, the highest density of flowering spurs occurred on M.7 and selections 3 and 7, with lower densities in selections 2 and 5. Selection 2 had the highest density of non-fl owering spurs, followed by selection 5, with all others having lower densities similar to trees on M.7.
Role of Rootstocks and Spur-type Scions for Controlling Vegetative Growth of Apple and Peach Trees
The problem of controlling tree growth, although existing throughout the history of fruit growing, has become more acute as economic conditions and population spread force growers to become more efficient and produce more fruit on each hectare of orchard land. In 1984, a workshop (9) was organized to address this issue and the High Density Plantings Working Group has organized three successful symposia (29, 30, 31) that have reported many studies on methods to increase efficiency.
Growth and Carbohydrate Distribution of Young Apple Trees in Response to Root Pruning and Tree Density
Root-pruning young greenhouse-grown MM.111 apple trees decreased leaves per tree, total leaf area, and dry weight of leaves, shoots, and roots. Root pruning had no influence on the carbohydrate fractions in the leaves or shoots, but caused an increase in soluble and insoluble fractions in the roots. No interaction occurred between root pruning and number of trees in the container. As number of trees per container increased, leaf, shoot, and total dry weight per plant decreased. Root pruning decreased shoot growth for 3 weeks after root pruning, with a return to the unpruned shoot growth rate in the 4th week. Photosynthesis and transpiration were reduced by root pruning, but not affected by tree density.
Influence of Orchard Management Systems on Spur Quality, Light, and Fruit within the Canopy of 'Golden Delicious' Apple Trees
Trees of 'Golden Delicious' apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) were established in 1973 in the following orchard management systems: slender spindle (SS), trellis (TR), interstem hedgerow (IH), and pyramid hedgerow (PH). Spur quality and percent photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) transmission declined from the top to the bottom of the canopy of all systems. The three conical central leader type trees (SS, IH, PH) produced a quarter of their fruit on or close to the central leader, while the palmette-shaped TR produced 60% in the center sections along the wire trellis. There was no difference between vertical fruit distribution in trees in the more intensive systems (SS, TR), but the larger trees (IH, PH) produced twice as much fruit in the top half of the canopy as in the bottom half. Trees in the SS had a lower percentage of PPF transmission values within the canopy than trees in the TR systems. Trees in IH generally had higher PPF transmission values within the canopy than the larger PH trees. The number of leaves per spur and specific leaf weight of spur leaves generally followed the light distribution pattern, and trees in the TR and IH systems had higher-quality spurs than the SS and PH systems. The SS and TR systems appeared more responsive to the orientation of the sun, having higher light transmission values on the east side of the canopy in the morning and west side in the afternoon, than the IH or PH systems.

Canopy Development and Yield Efficiency of 'Golden Delicious' Apple Trees in Four Orchard Management Systems 1
The canopy development and yield efficiency of 'Golden Delicious' apple trees (Malus domestica Borkh.) were measured during the sixth growing season for slender spindle (2151 trees/ha), trellis (1121 trees/ha), interstem hedgerow (795 trees/ha), and pyramid hedgerow (425 tree/ha) management systems. Pyramid hedgerow trees had the greatest trunk circumference, height, spread, and canopy volume/tree, but had a lower canopy volume/ha than the slender spindle or trellis. About 20% of the canopy of all 4 systems was present at bloom in May, 90% in June, and the maximum in July. Spur leaves followed the development pattern of the whole canopy but shoot leaf area did not reach its maximum until August. Interstem hedgerow trees had the most open canopy with the lowest amount of leaf area/unit of canopy height and the greatest amount of light penetration in the canopy. The pyramid hedgerow had a higher LAI than other systems and the increase in light in the upper third of the tree was not as great as the other systems. Trellis trees had the greatest number of fruit/100 cm2 area of both spur and shoot leaves and also the highest yield/unit trunk cross section of the 4 systems. The upper third of the canopy of all systems had the largest number of flowers and fruit, greatest amount of fruit/100 cm2 of leaf area and more light than the mid- and lower-thirds. Cumulative yield/ha and canopy volume/ha were closely related to number of trees/ha but the trellis and interstem system had a greater density of fruit/m2 of canopy than the slender spindle or pyramid hedgerow systems.

What Dreams Sound Like: Interview With London Hip-Hop Artist Space Boy Troy
1) Talk to me about the making of your latest project. What was the inspiration behind it?
My latest project "THE ART OF BEING" has 3 main reasons for being: #1. I'm the best rapper I know. #2. Since 9'11, 2012, the ridiculous number of rappers wearing dresses & twerking!? people really needed cheering up. #3. Fat girls needed some decent work-out music (real talk).
I had been helping a number of artists with their projects so it made sense to put them all on the album & have my favourite producer Oscar Lo Brutto create the sonics. My vision was to put the fun back in hip-hop while flying the flag for self acceptance, self expressions & self actualization, in short, "be the change you want to be in the world."
2) With the music industry tanking and record sales falling, how do you envision yourself earning a living as an independent hip-hop artist?
As KRS ONE said; "learn other things beside music. Make money elsewhere, hip-hop you won't abuse it."
I have an office job (albeit a very tedious one) & a creative mind. I've never been into crime & unlike some I'm not afraid of hard work. As an artist, my focus is putting out unique content & performing overseas.
3) From a business point of view, which artists in the game do you think are really pushing the boundaries and changing it up?
Over here The 4 Owls did well getting production from DJ Premier, Akala & TY are also representing.
4) What business lessons have you learnt from the music industry so far?
Be patient & persistent. Be on time, be a pleasure to work with. I've collaborated with some extremely talented people who behaved like absolute divas, it's not a good look. Most of all, to quote Will Smith; "Stay ready so you don't have to get ready." When you get your five minutes you need to be able to capitalise, I'm sure Drake had those bars just waiting for Meek Mill.
5) What do you love about hip-hop music?
I'm old school, I appreciate the honesty. I love that it allows people to speak their truth. I love that it embraces all cultures, it reaches people all over the world. It is not pop. While the corporate machine has appropriated rap & used it to promote human destruction through junk food, materialism & general Kardasian-ism, hip-hop is the voice of the people, either resisting the oppressive system or simply focusing on the beauty that exists in the world beyond our TV screens.
6) What still surprises you about hip-hop?
I'm surprised that so much nonsense is done in the name of it but that's just a people problem, much like the fact more respect is not paid to the pioneers. I am pleasantly surprised at how far reaching this art-form is & how many people really love 2pac.
7) If you had the power to change one thing about the hip-hop industry to help independent artists – what would it be?
TV talent shows like X Factor have over saturating the market place & lowered the bar. While it is ultimately up to the consumers to demand better, it is made difficult by the industry popularising seemingly soulless, morally questionable & certainly dumbed down artist. No wonder the most hard working, socially conscious musicians seems a little demotivated. The industry needs to think ahead & invest in credible artist.
8) Who do you think are top 3 rappers doing it at the moment?
Joe Budden, Royce Da 5'9 & Nas. Being an MC raised on Ultramagnetic MC's, Redman & KMD, my list of MC's I'm not feeling is much, much longer.
9) So what are your plans for the future?
I am currently working on the second 5to5 album with Archetype & Sonar Music. We dropped "& SO IT BEGINS" in April this year so we are still performing that. We'll be releasing a few more videos for "THE ART OF BEING", doing collaborations & I've been shooting videos for Nomadic Poet of The Planet. In short, this year I'm going all out.
Headbanger: Interview With New Jersey Rapper Pink Fontaine
See Me Now: Interview With Independent Rapper Ya Boi KT
Party Control: Interview With Independent Artist HAYZE-L


I awake knowing I will be taken to a place—a place no child; moreover, no adult would want to be. I can hear footsteps getting closer, and then fading as if the owner did not want to disturb anyone. That would be my father.
Nor is it the gait of any of my brothers—they would be bare footed, since they should be in bed. Their footsteps would reveal a light, almost unheard padding on the floor—like a squirrel caught in the house, running on the carpet, trying to find its way out.
Under safer conditions, I would lie awake, watching the light and shadows from under my bedroom door. To my 8-year old's eye they would dance; gleefully, frisking and frolicking as people walked by, forcing a break in the sliver of light under the door. I would laugh in delight.
These, though, are not safe times.
As the sliver of light enlarges, the door opens parallel to it.
The shadows no longer dance.
The fear jumps to my heart.
At age ten, I found alcohol would deaden any feelings I had, but it was a short fix. I began with one drink and by the time I realized I was an alcoholic, I was using anything I could get my hands on twenty-four-seven. I live with one of the dynamics adult survivors of childhood abuse must endure: fear turned terror.
In the late eighties, as I was trying to break out a niche for myself in this new city, I knew something was wrong, terribly wrong with me.
I would find myself walking in short, fast spurts over and over the same terrain. I never knew what to do with my hands. They only felt natural when I was clenching and unclenching them, as a visible shaking of my extremities appeared. I felt like I had been in a marathon. My breathing came in shallow, ragged breaths from my chest. The fear had settled in my stomach leaving me trembling, gasping for air and unable to breathe from my diaphragm. The chill settled deep in my bones. Nothing warmed me up. I looked in the mirror, only to see a reflection of someone hollowed cheek with hooded eyes and pupils large and dark—the look of a deer caught in headlights, knowing within seconds its life force would flow out—look at me.
"This couldn't possibly be me," I thought, as beads of sweat dripped from my forehead, ran the length of my face and fell into the dark recesses below. I felt crazy and constantly waited to be locked up. And this was only during the light of day.
Night time was a whole new set of fears because these would begin my fear turned terror period of time.
The darkness, the quiet and my old childhood pattern of listening for footsteps outside the door was a nightly occurrence.
When exhaustion finally overtook me enough to sleep, I awoke from nightmares, startled and drenched in sweat from the fear running through every pore of my body. Ascertaining that no one was in my room, I would lay rigid with terror for the rest of the night.
As the weeks turned to months, my fear became an ugly, powerful monster. The rearing of its head became a constant part of my day. How does one begin to explain a terror so overwhelming that it affects every single ounce of your body and every facet of your life?
Fear turned terror was left behind—could it really be worse than it was? I had now graduated to full-blown panic attacks. I paced until the strength in my legs gave out and I collapsed to the floor. My shaking turned to tremors. I was using the top half of my lungs to get oxygen to the vital organs of my body. I walked around in winter clothes in the middle of the summer and I lay in baths of hot water longing for warmth. I felt half dead and knew I looked it, too. It was uncontrollable until finally, I was hospitalized.
My spirit had broken. I wanted to die. The round of medications began. The meds quieted the monster enough for me to learn that what I was experiencing was common not just amongst survivors of abuse, but from war veterans who made it out of the trenches and came home—after seeing the atrocities that man can do to man. Most importantly, it was treatable.
Doctors recognize panic attacks as an illness—illness that can be controlled through medication and therapy. Avoiding alcohol, drugs and caffeine slowed the occurrence of these attacks. While in hospital, I began working with a skilled therapist to recognize the warning triggers—palpitations, sweating, shortness of breath, dizziness, obscure thinking and act upon them before I reached the craziness that my initial anxiety, turned to fear, turned to terror, turned to panic attacks led me.
Years later, I'm living in a condo with a monthly mortgage, paying my own bills and working on a website for survivors again. The fear I experienced has lessened with the help of years of therapy. It's been five years since leaving therapy and I'm able to cope by practicing mindfulness, deep breathing and centering myself in the here and now. Most importantly, I check inside to ensure all my insiders, especially the younger ones, are having their needs met. New medication during the past twenty-five years have met many of aftereffects of childhood abuse. We, in many ways, are very lucky to live in a time where research into medications to help us is readily available.
I have lived with my ghosts from the past, and as a result I have lived a lifetime of fear turned terror, but I work from a place of healing instead of the horrors that fear can lead to.


Further more according to wikipedia it is an acute inflammation of the protective membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, known collectively as the meninges.The most common symptoms are fever, headache and neck stiffness. Other symptoms include confusion or altered consciousness, vomiting, and an inability to tolerate light or loud noises. Young children often exhibit only nonspecific symptoms, such as irritability, drowsiness, or poor feeding. If a rash is present, it may indicate a particular cause of meningitis; for instance, meningitis caused by meningococcal bacteria may be accompanied by a characteristic rash.
Please seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the above mentioned symptoms. Bacterial meningitis can be deadly. There's no way to know if you have bacterial or viral meningitis just by judging how you feel. Your doctor will need to perform tests to determine which type you have.
Your doctor will also order a lumbar puncture. This test is also called a spinal tap. It allows your doctor to look for increased pressure in the central nervous system. It can also find inflammation or bacteria in the spinal fluid. This test can also help determine the best antibiotic for treatment.
-Blood cultures identify bacteria in the blood. Bacteria can travel from the blood to the brain. N. meningitidis and S. pneumoniae can cause both sepsis and meningitis.
-A complete blood count with differential is a general index of health. It checks the number of red and white blood cells in your blood. White blood cells fight infection. The count is usually elevated in meningitis.
-Chest X-rays can reveal the presence of pneumonia, tuberculosis, or fungal infections. Meningitis can occur after pneumonia.
-A CT scan of the head may show problems like a brain abscess or sinusitis. Bacteria can spread from the sinuses to the meninges.
Viral meningitis isn't treated. It usually resolves on its own. Symptoms should go away within two weeks. There are no serious long-term problems associated with viral meningitis.
- Adolescents who are 11 to 12 years old.
- New high school students who haven't been vaccinated.
- People traveling to countries where meningococcal disease is common.
- Children who are ages 2 or older and who don't have a spleen or have a compromised immune system.


It is a red over white horizontal bicolour. The coat of arms is shifted to the hoist.
The shield is divided per pale into silver (= white) and red. The dexter side displays a red patriarch's cross (like a cross Lorraine). The sinister side displays a silver (= white) seedling of linden tree having three leaves.
The dexter half displays the arms of the former Hersfeld County. The "double cross" already appears on seals of the Abbey of St. Simon and Judas Thaddeus since 1217. In the approval the cross was related to Bishop Lullus of Mainz, founder of Hersfeld Monastery around 770. The powerful Imperial Abbey of Hersfeld was parted away from the city of Hersfeld in 1373 and was dissolved during the Protestant reformation in Germany. The territory was administrated by Hesse since 1606 and finally incorporated in 1648. The sinister side displays a modified version of the arms of the city of Rotenburg and is representing the former Rotenburg County. Both counties merged on 1 August 1972.
Flag and banner were approved on 10 September 1976. The coat of arms was approved on 29 March 1976.


Welcome to the 10 Days to a Better Shopify Store Series! To see the rest of the series, click here.
Once you open your Shopify store (you can see the tutorial here), you'll need to know how to get around within the site and start customizing certain things.
It takes quite a bit of time to figure out where to find things and this Shopify guide is designed to help you locate things quickly and efficiently, thus saving you weeks of setting things up because you can't find the options or don't know they even exist.
The first thing you'll want to click is, "Online Store" under "Sales Channels".
When you do, new navigation links will pop up.
Themes: This is where you change/update your theme. If you click on this themes button and then "Customize" in the blue button on the right side of the page, you'll see TONS of options to customize your theme and make it just how you want it to be.
Just kinda play around in the sections and see what you can change to make it all your own.
Pro-tip: You can change more things if you select the toggle from the "Home page" panel.
That's where you can do more advanced settings, like how things show up on your product pages or collections list. This is really great because you want to customize every aspect of your Shopify store to make it look completely UNIQUE and DIFFERENT from everyone ELSE'S Shopify site!!!!
Blog Posts: You'll go here if you want to create blog posts in your Shopify store. I don't personally create blog posts because I have a pre-exisiting blog (https://www.SarahTitus.com), but if you wanted a blog on your Shopify store, you could add in blog posts there.
Pages: This is where you'll go to create pages. You use the pages to put the links in your footer bar and various other places. So, let's say you wanted a link in your footer bar that says, "Contact Me." You'd set up a contact me page here and select "page.contact" from the Template section.
If it's just a regular page, just leave the Template at the default setting, "page".
Then you'd go to navigation and create a footer navigation and put in the Contact Me page you just set up (see screenshot below).
As you can see, I have categories set up (that's in my footer), Connect (also in my footer), Information (in my footer), and my Main Menu (my sidebar). The "Footer menu" says search. That's just something in there that I chose to disable so it doesn't show up on my Shopify site, but in that section it shows up.
You want to name your sidebar navigation, "Main Menu" and then add in the categories you want to appear in your sidebar.
For your footer, most of those are pages I created as well as a few links. It looks more professional to set up a footer with links, so I would suggest doing that.
Pro-tip: Don't copy/paste what I have set up in my store. The last thing you wanna do is look like a copycat. You want your store to be all your own, with your own ideas and content in it!
Preferences: This is where you can set the name of your site and meta description, along with adding in your Google Analytics code so it'll track in Google Analytics. If your shop is new and not ready yet for the world, you can add your password in here, so that a few people can see it (ones you give the password to), but no one can access it without the password.
Next, on the screenshot below, you will see a panel, this is where you manage all of your store. It's so easy. Let's take a look at it.
Home: Here you'll be able to see how your store is doing at a glance, and what is happening right at that moment. You will see how many visitors there are live on your site, the orders of the day, etc.
This is my favorite part because at a very quick glance, I can see how much I've made for the day, how much my traffic is at, and how many people are on the site.
It will also show you how your abandoned cart feature is working (if you're on the $79/month plan and have it set up).
This is all incredibly valuable information because like looking at my card for conversion rates on social media, I know that Instagram is my best source for traffic and that's where I should spend more of my marketing efforts on. They are looking at 3.6 pages each person and spending half a minute there, which is pretty good for social media. Whereas my Pinterest is less than 20 seconds and only 1.5 average pageviews per person, so I wouldn't want to spend the bulk of my marketing efforts on Pinterest. It would be on Instagram, then Facebook. I wouldn't even worry about Pinterest right now.
Everyone's card will be different and you can make decisions based on what's right for you and your store.
Shopify is always changing out this home section with new information, so what you see today, may not be the same things you see tomorrow. So be sure to always check out that page routinely to see what's up in your store.
Orders: This will allow you to track all your orders. It's very much needed to maintain your store. Sometimes a customer will email in and you'll need to look up their order.
Sometimes you'll create a free order for a friend, you can do that in there as well. Every day, I go in this section and look at every single order that is over $10. I will look and see what my customers are purchasing, so I know what is "hot" right now. I keep a super close eye on this section at all times.
Products: This is where you can see all of your products at a quick glance. You can also add a new product from here.
Something really cool about this section. If you click the toggle bar, More actions, and then select "View all products with reviews" you can see all your products that have reviews on them.
Once there, select "Reviews" in the top right and it'll populate the list by greatest to smallest.
Customers: This is really great because you can go in and see the history of your customers purchases by name. So you just type in an email address or a name and it'll show you their state/country, how many orders they've made, and the dollar amount they've spent.
Analytics: This will help you to keep track of your store. This is just as important as having Google Analytics installed on your blog. On this page, you'll be able to see your conversion rate, and pretty much anything that's important for you to make decisions when it comes to creating new products.
Be sure to spend LOTS and LOTS of time in your analytics, ESPECIALLY if you are on the $79/month plan as your analytics are much, much better than on the $29/month plan.
Discounts: People love shopping when they are offered a discount. On this page, you can create discounts for your audience. This is a great way to boost your sales and have people buying more because their money goes further.
Apps: Very important! Just like phone apps, or plugins on your website, the apps in Shopify will help you to customize your store and make it more efficient! I'm currently working on a Shopify bundle and all the apps that I use will be shared in the bundle, so be sure to look for that upcoming training resource!
As you can see the Shopify platform is very intuitive and incredibly easy to set up and use.
Thank you so much for creating this post. It has been very helpful as for the last 8 years I have been debating on creating a store and recently signed up with Shopify. I am still in the process of building it but I can't wait for store to be as big as yours.
Wow Tami, that's so awesome you have your own Shopify store now! Congratulations! Let us know how it goes.
Oh my, Sarah – such a wealth of information here. I had signed up for the lite plan and now see that the shop plan will be so much better. Starting out, all I could think about was how to save money. And yes – the lite plan worked fine, seeing as I didn't end up selling anything anyway. LOL Now that I have some other products I think this would work well. Thanks so much for sharing this info with us.
Sarah you simplified things and added your own touch. Can't wait until your book gets out.


A few days before Christmas, Oracle announced it had entered into an agreement to acquire B2C cloud marketing software provider, Responsys for approximately US$1.5 billion.
The deal is not quite closed as counter bids may appear (SAP, IBM, Microsoft…?), but Oracle's goal is for the addition of Responsys to expand its cloud computing offerings as users shift away from traditional, computer-based software.
The addition of Responsys' B2C marketing software would extend the Oracle Customer Experience Cloud, which includes Commerce, Sales, Service, Social and the Oracle Marketing Cloud.
The announcement came exactly a year after Oracle announced the US$871-million acquisition of Eloqua, the B2B marketing automation platform. By bringing together Responsys and Eloqua, Oracle is rounding out its cloud-based marketing offering to take on the likes of Salesforce and Adobe.
The board of directors of Responsys unanimously approved the transaction. Oracle says the transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2014, subject to Responsys stockholders and regulatory approval.
