The Faster Way to Fat Loss ® or as I like to call it the Faster Way to Weight Loss is the best program I have ever used. Its how I have been able to lose weight on vacation and recently lose 15 pounds in one round.
I have now participated in three rounds of the Faster Way to Fat Loss and moved into the monthly VIP program (for those who have completed at least one round of FWTFL).
This has been the best program I have used to lose weight while on vacation. As a travel blogger I spend a lot of time abroad and even though I do a lot of walking, there is a tendency to overeat – gelato twice a day while walking around Rome, why not? Stopping at French patisseries for a coffee and a croissant every afternoon for a break, of course!
Disclaimer: You should have your doctor's approval before beginning any diet or exercise program. I am not a trained professional. I am writing about my experience.
The Faster Way to Fat Loss ® is a 6-week online program that will empower you to transform your life through simple, effective, cutting-edge fitness and nutrition strategies created by Amanda Tress.
This program is a highly researched to help lose weight, especially belly fat, through intermittent fasting, carb cycling and tracking macros to fuel your body. Amanda focuses on feeding our bodies the right nutrients at the right time.
I love this program so much. Not only has this put me back in control of my relationship with food, but I have also gained strength and muscle while losing weight on vacation. This is not a diet, it is a lifestyle – and it is a freaking effective way to burn FAT.
Want to know what the Faster Way to Fat Loss ® is all about? There are three main components – carb cycling, intermittent fasting and tracking your macros. All easy to implement and explained below.
In the Faster Way to Fat Loss ® we use carb cycling, it is not a low carb diet. Carb cycling is an alteration of carbohydrate intake to prevent fat loss plateaus and keep your metabolism working effectively. Basically, you cycle between low carb days and regular carb days to ensure that your body burns fat effectively without causing significant hormonal damage or dips in energy.
• Fat loss, as opposed to overall weight loss. Carb cycling clients see actual body composition changes.
• A nutritional strategy that isn't too overwhelming or stressful. One that allows you to eat out and enjoy your lifestyle while continuing to see progress towards your goals.
I've always been a good sleeper but my energy has been quite sluggish especially as I have gotten older. The biggest change I have seen is to my energy levels. I wake up ready to go which is what I have been looking for every time I lost weight.
When I signed up for the program I wasn't too worried about the workouts or the low carb days, it was the intermittent fasting that I was worried about. On the program you will eat for 8 hours of the day and fast for 16 hours of the day.
Amanda says – During the FASTer Way to Fat Loss®, my clients engage in a daily 16/8 fast protocol. This means that they fast for 16 hours each day (most of which are overnight while they are sleeping), and consume ALL of their daily calories during an 8 hour feeding window. While there are other fasting schedules that can be followed for similar results, this is the most doable for the busy women I work with!
I admit starting the 16/8 fast protocol takes a few days to get used to it but once you do it is absolutely amazing. I use an eating window of 10-6pm. I was born and raised in the Midwest of America and we eat dinner early, and also eat most of our calories during the day. That's why I have chosen a feeding window of 10-6pm. Most people do 12-8pm but the system is flexible and you can choose your own timing.
I have really enjoyed the intermittent fasting part of the lifestyle. I am rarely hungry (only if I haven't eaten enough the day before) and that affects mostly first thing in the morning. And just to clarify – YES you can still drink coffee (and wine) on the program.
Most of my fasted time occurs while I am sleeping from 10pm to 6am. I have never really eaten after dinner so late night snacking is not a problem for me. I do miss eating first thing in the morning but what I have learned is that I am actually thirsty not hungry after sleeping for eight hours and not drinking any water.
In FWTFL, we do not count calories but we are eating the right macros at the right time. We track our macros or food using the My Fitness Pal app which is free to use!
Macros are the carbohydrates, fat and protein in your food. On certain days we aim for different percentages. So on low carb days we obviously eat less carbs and our percentage of carbohydrates is less.
All of this is explained in the videos during prep week and we have a week of learning how the program works. Its really simple though and do not worry too much about this. My biggest tip is that if you have a recipe or something you have daily like a smoothie is to create recipes so you can just input smoothie and it will pull through all of the info.
At the end of each day we post a screenshot of our macros in our Facebook groups. This is great for accountability but also encouragement when we've had a bad day. You have to remember life happens and we are doing the best we can each day.
The weekly workout plans are my favorite part of the program. I know I'm crazy but I love the weight exercises.
If you are not interested in working out and just want a meal plan I want to let you know the program still works. They say 80% of weight loss is food based and I couldn't agree more. I used to work out frequently and never saw a change in the scale. Once I focused on my food and followed the Faster Way I started seeing results.
Throughout the six weeks there are daily workout plans available on the portal. Your cardio, weights, and rest day activities are all there and there are three different levels – beginner, home, and gym. So even if you do not have a gym membership you still have options to do the workouts.
On my first round I started at beginner (which is just the gym workouts but easier) and on the second week switched to the gym workshops. I was able to keep up with the weights but had to scale back on the finishers/cardio. My second round I was not going to the gym except for yoga and I was still able to lose weight.
I love that now I know what I am going to do at the gym when I go. Before I could talk myself out of it if I didn't make it in time for a class or just wasn't sure what I wanted to do. Now, I look forward to the lifting days and love the moves. Amanda has recently re-filmed all of the exercises so you can see how to do them in the portal.
Fridays and Sundays are our rest days. I usually go to yoga on Friday and then on Sundays I just try to get in my 10,000 steps and go for a walk where ever I am.
Through the portal you will see the type of foods we will eat on the program. Whole foods are a given in what we eat. For my first two rounds I went dairy free and gluten free. Now I use dairy occasionally as I'm not actually a huge cheese fan.
There are lots of great recipes out there such as Skinnytaste recipes for low carb days. I think the biggest takeaway for me is that the amount of veggies I am eating has increased exponentially. I actually crave veggies as my sugar cravings have gone away.
I'm starting show more of what I cook and eat on the road on my Instagram if you want to follow along.
The biggest problem I have with the program is getting all of my macros in during my feeding time. I am just not that hungry as my body is properly fuelled throughout the day. Its amazing!
Amanda says that a lot of people are over exercising and under eating which leads to hormonal imbalances and stagnant weight loss. That's why we eat more on this program but at the right times. I have never eaten this much food before.
This is such an advantage of the FWTFL program. Everyone is set up in a small private group where we discuss daily how things are going and ask any questions we may have. The women in the group are amazing and of course we are all led by a certified FWTFL coach who is there to answer any questions and provide words of encouragement.
It is such a great group of women to be a part of and I enjoy checking in daily in my Facebook group. Remember, you also have the portal where you will find meal plans, exercise plans and a ton of information.
Amanda also does Facebook Live videos for you to watch and she talks a lot about the program, how it works and why we do what we do.
I loved my Facebook groups and the encouragement I would get from the other ladies in the group. We work on progress not perfection and the extra encouragement was such good motivation for me.
How does this program work for me? How am I able to lose weight on vacation?
Easy. The program is flexible and easy to do. When I travel I change my day so that I am eating first thing in the morning (hello hotel breakfast buffet) and then finish around 4pm. I have a long, large lunch and a light snack mid afternoon.
A basic day looks like the following for me.
5pm Arrive home and start cooking dinner.

Eglise St-Croix
Église St-Croix was originally the chapel of Montrichard castle. Foulques Nerrra brought back a relic of the 'authentic cross' from Jerusalem and presented it to the castle chapel when it was founded in the 11thC. It was damaged when the royal apartments collapsed, but was repaired and became the parish church.
There is a splendid double arch west porch with twisted rope pillars with capitals carved in feather shapes. Above is a round topped window surrounded by blank arches. Beneath the windows is a narrow projecting cornice with carved stones beneath. A wooden door with similarly carved arches leads into the church. It was a pity about the graffiti.
The organ above the west door has wooden balconies on either side, accessed by a wooden spiral staircase, with a sign saying 'no admittance except for the choir'. The nave is simple with a wooden slatted ceiling with support beams across. Pillars with round topped arches separate nave and side aisles. The side aisles have vaulted stone ceilings. There is a statue of Joan of Arc on the transept pillar. The apse at the east end is lined with old choir stalls. It just has a small mass altar with a crucifix on the far wall.
The north aisle has no windows. There are three apses off the wall. The back one is a chapel dedicated to the Virgin. Across the front are wrought iron railings. The altar is carved stone with pillars on the base supporting round topped arches picked out in gilt. In the centre are the intertwined initials of I and S. On either side there are lily plants. The small retable has a small host box with gilt decoration on either side. Above is a stone carved statue of the Virgin. The middle apse contains the font and the one nearest the chancel has a stone carved altar and host box.
On the end of the north aisle is green painted wooden altar with a large retable with painted panels framed in gilt. On the altar are two reliquary boxes containing bones. The retable has two pillars on either side of a statue . The walls behind the altar are painted green and have gilt and green patterns. On either side of the altar are wooden doors leading into the sacristy. Above them are small pictures.
The south aisle has a splendid altar and retable of wood. The altar base has a series of pillars painted with elaborate patterns of red, yellow and blue. This theme continues to the retable which has side pillars and an arch surrounding a statue of the Virgin. Above is a painted carved wood castle. The back walls are painted in a light and dark green pattern with a brown and green border. The ceiling is painted blue with stars. Pillars are painted red, yellow and blue. There is a marble plaque on wall saying that St Jeanne de Valois married Duc d'Orleans (Louis XII) here in 1476. The marriage was later annulled when Charles VIII died and Louis wanted to marry his widow, Anne of Brittany in the hope of annexing Brittany to the French throne. On the wall is a painted statue of the Virgin holding a cross.
This is a delightful small church and repays visiting.

This one is a sneaky one, and one that trips up a lot of authors if they aren't paying attention. If you visit Amazon's Look Inside feature, you might find your book formatting is completely different than expected. This is due to the Look Inside feature using a different software than the Kindle. In layman's terms, Look Inside strips out a lot of the coding that makes a Kindle look pretty. This is most often the case when a user is using Scrivener 2.0 to format their books.
The best and most easy fix to this is to upload an ePub file to KDP. Or, if you have updated to Scrivener 3.0, they have fixed this issue with .Mobi files. If you're using Vellum, they've also resolved this issue as well. The best course of action is always to check your file after it goes live to make sure you're putting your best foot forward.
Smashwords is notorious for throwing all kinds of errors at people. From images to text to Tables of Contents, you can find reams of complaints about people fighting with it. Happily, there's a real easy solution to this problem: If you direct upload an ePub file (vice a Word document), you won't have to submit to the Meatgrinder.
Keep in mind that per Smashword's own data, Kindle is the most-often downloaded format, and if you only upload an ePub file, you won't get that .Mobi file for users of the Smashwords store. We wrote a whole blog on Smashwords, if you think you want to upload a Word doc instead.
If you're using CreateSpace and IngramSpark to publish your book, generally if one accepts your book format, the other will as well. The normal errors we get from IngramSpark relate to the color schema (as Scrivener exports PDFs in a different schema) and, on occasion, if we save the cover under the wrong Photoshop setting. Both of these issues are "non-blocking," that is, Ingram will fix them for you. With CreateSpace, our most common error is the autovetter stalling when we upload the interior. CreateSpace will review the document and allow you to view the online version to check for any issues.
Do you have any errors popping up when you format? Something just not working? Sound off in the comments!

Oti Mabuses life – big boob woes, famous husband and poor childhood
Sign up for the Daily Star TV newsletter for the biggest TV news
There are few things we Brits love more than Strictly – and all the gossip that comes with it.
From judge drama to the 'Strictly curse', it's a highlight of the year for many, and one of the only things that keeps us in on the sofa on a Saturday night.
One of the show's best-loved stars was Oti Mabuse, before she sensationally quit the programme earlier this year after starting as a professional dancer in 2015.
READ NEXT: Giovanni Pernice announces 'new' Strictly partner – and she's a familiar face
Since then, she has set hearts racing with some of the UK's favourite stars, including Bill Bailey, Made in Chelsea's Jamie Laing and Emmerdale's Kevin Fletcher.
But when she's not dishing out five stars or dancing the Samba, how much do you know about the star off screen?
Big boob woes
Though we're used to seeing Oti looking fierce with confidence on the dance floor, she has spoken out candidly about her body issues in the past.
The dancer revealed that during her first ever stint on Strictly, she burst into tears at the dress fitting due to her 28GG boobs.
She said in an interview with Lorraine: "I remember fitting my first bra and I was crying. I was like, this looks so bad and I look so massive compared to the other girls.
"Nobody picked on me for it and no one discriminated against me for it and nobody said anything in a negative way and I think that helped me and my self esteem and my nerves about being out in a bra with sequins on."
Oti revealed that as a child, she would cover up with baggy tops – but once she slipped into her sequinned number on Strictly, there was no hiding.
She added: "All my family has always had big boobs. I was hitting puberty way before other girls were."
Strictly 'lifeline'
Back in 2021, Covid restrictions had been in place for more than a year, and Oti hadn't been able to see her family in South Africa since they were introduced.
The dancer also had to isolate from her partner during her time on Strictly, and was staying in a special hotel room during filming to adhere to social distancing measures.
But in an unlikely turn of events, it was Strictly Come Dancing that gave her a lifeline. Her sister Motsi Mabuse, 39, was a judge on the panel while Oti was paired with Bill Bailey.
The sisters were able to be together in spite of Government guidelines, as they were in the same 'bubble' filming for the show.
She said: "The last time I'd seen my sister was in the Strictly final of 2019. "Because of the travel bans and everything, I couldn't go over to [Germany] on her birthday to go and see her and we usually celebrate it together.
"Because of Strictly, she was the only family member that I could see." Tearing up, she added: "I haven't seen my family in about two years because they're from South Africa and [coronavirus] is currently not great there."
Famous husband
Oti's life with her husband Marius Lepure is what Strictly dreams are made of. The pair are both dancers, and were even introduced by another beloved member of the Strictly family.
Oti's career first took off when she moved to Germany from her home in South Africa. Her sister Motsi picked out a selection of potential suitors she could pair up with to dance.
Marius and Oti hit it off right away, and went on to win the German National Show Dance Championships as well as coming second in the World Latin Championships.
But the sparks weren't just on the dance floor, and the couple got married in 2014. To put it simply, Oti said: "My first try out in Germany was with this guy. We started dancing and 10 years later I married him."
The couple were only engaged for eight months, but Oti noted that that's the way of the dance world. She explained: "[Eight months] do you think that's too soon? That is how the dance world works. You meet someone, you move in straight away together. It goes boom."
Poor childhood
For more of the latest showbiz news from Daily Star, make sure you sign up to one of our newsletters here.
Oti grew up in South Africa, and visits her family whenever she can. In an emotional video, she shared her first visit after Covid restrictions were lifted, saying through tears that "family is above all".
But the dancer has previously opened up about their family's difficult childhood under Apartheid, reports the Metro. Her sister Motsi said on Loose Women in 2020: "You just showed that picture of me as a little girl and I still had to suppress the tears because I still feel like now, when we speak about this subject, that everything keeps coming back from somewhere we hid it right back."
She continued: "It wasn't an easy childhood. Our parents did the upmost that we felt love and we had everything we needed but we knew what kind of atmosphere we were in."
Oti said that though she loved dancing as a child, she had no access to dance schools, which were segregated, explaining that "no one was teaching black kids how to dance" where they lived, the Guardian reports.

Inside the 'green lobby'
Former Adirondack Council lobbyist Bernard Melewski. Photo by Brad Edmonson
Memoir draws from three decades as an Adirondacks environmental powerbroker
By Brad Edmondson
Former Adirondack Council lobbyist Bernard Melewski advises: "Find out what motivates the people you need to take action. Convince them that your goal is something they also want."
Melewski's new memoir, "Inside the Green Lobby: The Fight to Save the Adirondack Park" is drawn from three decades as an environmental powerbroker in Albany. He is a fine storyteller and the book should be irresistible to political junkies, but it is also worthwhile for those who don't know much about how a bill becomes a law. People often think of politics as a game of competing ideas where the outcome depends on who spends the most money. But that is only part of the truth. Melewski adds missing pieces.
Legislative politics is about relationships. Lobbyists study legislators the way thieves study doors and windows. They case the joint, trying not to attract attention to themselves as they look for ways to unlock lawmakers' votes. Information can be more powerful than money. That is why Melewski often brought an intern along to the state Capitol. "The intern helped me read the room, like a second camera," he said. "If a senator says something and his staffers make faces at each other, that tells you something."
The core of the book is about the long, dramatic and unsuccessful attempt to upgrade environmental protection in the Adirondack Park between 1989 and 1993. It is the most convincing account of that struggle yet published, and it contains several revelations that are, to an Adirondack history geek like me, truly startling.
Melewski joined The Adirondack Council in 1990, just before a commission appointed by Gov. Mario Cuomo released "The Adirondacks in the Twenty-First Century." As the book opens, he was reading a smuggled copy of the report on the train. Melewski realized immediately it was tone-deaf to political realities. Its 245 recommendations were confusing and too aggressive and its primary goal was to prevent development in the vast majority of the park. "They're going to piss a lot of people off with this," Melewski concluded. He was right.
'Wild Ideas'
Read a series of short vignettes that tells the story of the at-times contentious campaign to create the Adirondack Park Agency.
Adapted from the book "A Wild Idea: How the Environmental Movement Tamed the Adirondacks," author Brad Edmondson interviewed more than 50 people who fought for and against the APA, some of whom have since died.
Opponents of the report were well-funded and skillful, and they waged a damaging publicity war against the Adirondack Council and its allies for several years. But the enviros soldiered on, and in 1993, they succeeded in negotiating a major deal. Mario Cuomo's budget contained funds to buy a few choice parcels to add to the Forest Preserve. Melewski and others took it up with Sen. Ron Stafford, whose district encompassed the eastern half of the Adirondacks. Stafford's approval was essential. As chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, he could block critical statewide legislation and nothing happened in his district without his approval.
Stafford wanted to move the Adirondack Park Agency out of the executive budget and make it an independent commission. Melewski said yes and the governor's people did, too, but one board member of the Council, Harold Jerry, was convinced that moving the APA would kill it. Jerry had been the staff director of the commission that set up the APA in 1971. He was convinced that the APA needed gubernatorial protection to survive.
Harold Jerry might also have been Ron Stafford's closest friend. He asked Stafford to kill the deal, and Stafford did it as a personal favor to him. Jerry resigned from the Council soon after, and bitter feelings lingered on both sides for years.
Tension between Adirondack environmental activists has always been a problem. In the late 1950s, two legendary figures, Paul Schaefer and John Apperson, took opposing sides on a bitter fight over the proposed route of Interstate 87 (the Northway). Schaefer and Apperson, who had worked together for decades, never spoke to each other again.
Some activists, like Apperson, are proudly determined to fight any proposed compromise to Article 14 of the state Constitution, known as the "forever wild" clause. They are committed to the vision of a vast wilderness. Others, like Schaefer and Melewski, might agree in principle—but they also engage in the annual give and take of legislative sessions. Hardcore activists often portray lobbyists as mere traders whose deal-making blinds them to more important principles. Melewski disagrees. "The perfect can be the enemy of the good," he said. "It's OK to compromise if you know you'll be back next year to keep pushing. And it's fine to say what ought to be done, but it doesn't mean much until you make sure that the funding and votes are there for it." He points to the Environmental Protection Fund established by the legislature in 1994, one year after Jerry sank the Council's land deal. The fund provides hundreds of millions of dollars per year for land protection and other measures.
"I was never worried about the moral consequences of what I was doing," Melewski said. "I wrote 'Inside the Green Lobby' to show people how the system really works."

Brad, there are several important inaccuracies in your piece which deserve comment. I was at the State Capitol frequently in those years as the executive director of the Association for the Protection of the Adirondacks. It is true that Park legislation was introduced and passed by the State Assembly and had the support of Governor Mario Cuomo. The year was 1992. The bill was then subject to negotiation with the State Senate. The bill was not about, as you report, "funds to buy a few choice parcels to add to the Forest Preserve." It was about amending the Adirondack Park Agency Act to better protect private lakeshores and Resource Management areas. My organization was, like the Adirondack Council, intensely interested in its passage because the 1973 APA Private Land Use Plan's protections for lakeshores and backcountry forests proved several of its greatest weaknesses. It is true that Senator Stafford held all the cards for its passage in the Senate and it is also true that Harold Jerry had an influential relationship with Stafford, and asked Stafford not to support the bill because of Stafford's insistence on a poison pill, which you do not describe accurately. Stafford did not insist on moving " the Adirondack Park Agency out of the executive budget and make it an independent commission." APA has always been an independent agency within the Executive branch of government. Instead, State Sen. Stafford insisted that in return for stronger lakeshore and backcountry protections the APA become an arm of the Department of Environmental Conservation, or DEC. That was what Harold Jerry objected to so strenuously because since the APA's inception many within DEC had been hostile to the agency. And, despite my organization's advocacy for the bill and my shock when Stafford abruptly ended negotiations, Harold Jerry was absolutely right to do what he did. As weak as APA may be today, its land use planning map and powers would have been eviscerated within the NYS DEC. Stafford's poison pill was truly a bridge too far for Harold Jerry – and for me. The Adirondack Council's leadership at the time was OK with folding APA into the DEC in return for stronger Park protections in the law. Because he held the line on the relative independence of the APA, Harold Jerry was (in my view very unfairly) shunned by the Adirondack Council and was forced to leave its board. Fortunately, Jerry remained an influential board member of my organization until his death in 2001. Much as I wanted the bill's lakeshore and backcountry protections to pass, I will always admire Harold Jerry's influence with Senator Stafford on that memorable day in 1992.


Given the internal and external risks to companies, it becomes imperative that investors evaluate the risk-return profiles of companies before investing in them.
Company specific issues and external factors like policy changes and economic growth impact a firm's performance.
It has been proved that no other asset class has the ability to beat equity in the long run, but its performance is subject to several risks. Besides the internal or company-specific issues, external factors like change in government policies, market sentiment, competition and economic growth have a significant influence on a company's long-term performance. For instance, MTNL, which once enjoyed a teleservices monopoly in Delhi and Mumbai, has lost more than 92% of its value in the past 19 years due to its operating inefficiencies and increased competition.
For investment tenures of five years and more, the loss rate of BSE500 is zero.
Note: 5-year or 10-year periods between 2000 to 2018. Investment at the beginning and exit at the end of the year.
Given the internal and external risks to companies, it becomes imperative that investors evaluate the risk-return profiles of companies before investing in them. Also, the likelihood of losses from equity investments goes down with the increase in the investment tenure. Data for the past 19 years—2000 to 2018—shows that the historical loss rate of BSE500 index goes down to zero as the investment tenure goes up to five years or more. Historical loss rate is defined in terms of index returns and is calculated by dividing the number of years in which the index has delivered negative returns by the total number of investment years. The historical loss rate can also be used to identify low risk-high return stocks. Fewer negative returns and surging stock prices over a given period of time implies that the company has strong business fundamentals and has been meeting its shareholders' expectations.
We tried to identify companies with minimum historical loss rate across time scales. Companies with a market-cap of greater than Rs 500 crore were analysed and historical loss rates for 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year investment periods were calculated. Some 451 companies with market-cap greater than Rs 500 crore, whose share price data was available since 2000 were analysed. Calendar year data was used from 2000 to 2018 and the stock prices for the first trading day and the last trading day for each of these 451 stocks were extracted. To compute the historical loss rate for stocks, the stock price returns from the first trading day to the last trading day across the four time frames are worked out.
These stocks haven't seen negative returns over 3-, 5- and 10-yr periods since 2000.
Stock prices as on 5 Feb 2019. Source: Estimates, analysts' views and target prices from Bloomberg rest from ACE Equity.
Looking at the historical loss rate for one year, an investor entering at the beginning of the year and exiting at the end of the year would have had 19 one-year tenures to invest and exit. Science and tech company 3M India has delivered negative returns for three 1-year periods out of 19 and therefore, its historical loss rate works out to 15.8%. Similarly, there were 17 three-year periods—1 January 2000 to 31 December 2002, 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2003 and so on—the last being 1 January 2016 and 31 December 2018. Had you invested in Asian Paints for any of these 17 (3-year) periods, you would never have booked a loss. The historical loss rate of Asian Paints is zero over the 3-year period. Similar calculations were done for 5- and 10-year time scales.
We filtered out stocks whose historical loss rate was less than that of the BSE500 index loss rate across 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods, leaving us with 41 companies. These companies not only have lower risk but are fundamentally sound and have significant future growth potential. Of these 41 companies, 38 are covered by Bloomberg analysts and these have 827 analyst recommendations. Out of these, 71% are buy, 19% are hold and 10% are sell recommendations.
Bloomberg analysts estimate the average return on equity (ROE) of these shortlisted companies for 2018-19 to be 20.7%. Comparatively, the estimated ROE of BSE500 index for 2018-19 is 11.7%. In the past five years, the aggregate marketcap of these 41 companies has grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.4%, while the BSE500 companies grew at a CAGR of 15.3%. Out of these 41 companies, we finally selected companies with zero historical loss rate across 3-, 5- and 10-year time frames, leaving us with six companies.

A copper catalyzed efficient synthetic method has been developed to access bis(N-arylbenzamide) selenides from 2-halo-N-arylbenzamide substrates and disodium selenide in HMPA at 110 °C. The developed protocol tolerates substituents in both N-aryl and benzamide rings of the 2-halobenzamide substrates and provides an array of bis(N-arylbenzamide) selenides in practical yields. The resulting selenides were transformed into hypervalent spirodiazaselenuranes by oxidation using aqueous hydrogen peroxide. (N-(1-Naphthyl)) spirodiazaselenurane is also structurally characterized by a single crystal X-ray study. Hydroxy-substituted spiroselenuranes have been prepared by careful demethylation of methoxy-substituted selenides followed by oxidation by hydrogen peroxide. Antioxidant properties for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and for the deactivation of radicals of hydroxy-substituted spiroselenuranes have been studied by the thiol assay and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. Both hydroxy-substituted spiroselenuranes exhibit dual mimic functions of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) selenoenzyme and α-tocopherol for decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and deactivation of radicals, respectively.


great to see you back MM99!!! got any youtube links? I don't do facebook.
got to see it this am, check out your youtube page, my sister sent you a message!
btw; she's in love with you. er, I mean your band.
Were recording a ton of stuff right now including a slew of acoustic and full band covers and all of our originals for our album.


This is a guest contribution from Sabina Stoiciu, blogger, photographer and traveller.
One thing that happens to many fresh bloggers is not knowing what to write about or what would best benefit their audience, in order to convince them to subscribe to that blog and to make them desperately wait for another post to be published.
Supposing this little problem of not knowing exactly what to blog about might occur to anyone, not only to blogging rookies, it's a good idea to think about what people want from your blog.
b) you might lose some of your current readers if you don't meet or keep up with their expectations.
When talking about blogs, it's important to know how readers see them. Some people read blogs to live other people's experiences. Others look for tips they can apply to themselves. Several people look for business information, while there are many others who seek entertainment material. As Darren wrote, a good question is also what your content is centred upon – information, inspiration or interaction.
Generally people find a blog, like it and become a reader because they value the content and the way in which it's written, but wouldn't it be great to actually know what your visitors want and to use this knowledge to attract them towards your blog for converting them into full-time readers?
Below you will find 5 ways that can help you in the quest of finding out what people really want from your blog.
You can do so by offering them a way to express their content related desires and by actually reading what they tell you.
Two places where readers can share what they would like to find are the comments section of every blog post and the "contact me" form you can embed into your blog. A form like this provides people a short and easy way to get in touch with you and to keep discussions private, in comparison to the comments section. 123ContactForm is an online form and survey builder that could help you in several ways. For example, it offers a free plugin for WordPress based blogs that can help you create a customisable contact form with almost no effort – you can access one here.
You can also run a survey in which you kindly encourage them to tell you what they would most love to see on your blog.
The benefit of a survey is that it can help you in two ways: with your current readers and with potential readers. Why is that? Because you can publish it on your blog, where you're addressing it to your current readers, but you can also publish it on other websites, partner blogs or social media channels, where you can reach a whole bunch of other people that aren't necessarily your readers yet.
A free survey tool like the one from the already mentioned 123ContactForm can help you publish your survey on any of the above channels and personalise it as you wish, if you want people to recognise your brand.
While point 1 and 2 refer to the "ask the readers what they want" part, points 3 to 5 handle the more technical aspect of the user vs. content research, that is letting the data speak about what topics you should cover.
Get to know what is trending by doing some keyword research on Google, as well as on your blog. Both types of search can help you.
Here's how: if you find out what people are looking for right now, you can start covering those topics (supposing you haven't already) and drive organic traffic to your blog. On the other hand, knowing what people have been looking for on your blog can point you towards popular topics which you can afterwards choose to cover more in-depth.
As of the free tools that can help you do the research, you may want to try out Google Trends, the already popular Google Analytics and your blog's stats. Again, this tool works for current and future visitors.
Another indicator of what drives your visitor's interest is the post traffic. Articles that readers find relevant and valuable will show an increased traffic volume compared to ones that are not so appealing.Thus, keeping an eye on your blog's traffic data from Google Analytics or the blog stats is always a good idea that might also define or at least improve your content strategy.
One thing to bare in mind when talking about post traffic is also how well you optimise your posts for search engines. By using relevant and targeted keywords, clearly expressing your ideas, using a friendly, yet catchy headline, setting helpful tags and image descriptions, you allow visitors to find more easily what they're looking for. And Google will love you for that.
You can also check out Darren's post on how to optimise a blog post that performed well in terms of traffic.
The last point on our list (but definitely not one that should be neglected) is to analyse the engagement around your blog posts and around their reverberance in social media.
To be more specific, take a look at the number of likes, shares and comments a post received directly on your blog, as well as on the social media channels where you shared it. Naturally, posts that sum up a lot of engagement have always proved themselves to be a hot topic for those engaging with them. Hence, why not consider exploring more of these topics that your readers were so keen on?
These are some ideas on how to find out what your blog visitors are looking for. Remember, you can always test to see what works out best and let the results point you towards the direction worth following.

Sabina, thanks for the post! Out of the above, the way that has worked best for me is checking my post traffic. I have been amazed by how much a particular topic has performed over the years, so much so that I'm considering creating a course around the topic. It's clearly meeting a need, considering how much it's searched for and read.
Thanks Rebecca! Yes, post traffic really is a strong indicator in my opinion too. It clearly shows people are interested in that topic. Creating a course around it sound good, it's an useful tip.
They want actionable content that inspires them to get to the next level!
Like you said in your words, ask your readers on what kind of content they want to be seeing; simple.
What got me is the stats at the beginning of this post; I didn't think so many people read blogs but then I come to realization that most content ranking high on Google are blogs!
Again, analysis is of complete importance in order to grab the free ideas on what kinds of content is the most accepted and shared.
Thanks for the post Problogger and Sabina!
Sam, thanks for sharing your thoughts! Indeed, the stats about blogs and blogging might surprise you at the first glance. But as you point out, blogs do rank high on Google, and their diversity allows everyone to find at least one blog of interest to them.
all the things that has been mentioned above are enough to become successful with you blogging. I have a friend of mine who does not do any kind of SEO, he just provides what his readers want and that too with an .info domain, which is ignored by almost every blogger on the web.
His blog is one of the most visited blogs in the world with millions of monthly visitors.
Asif, your friend offers one more proof of how important it is to provide the kind of content that readers want to read on your blog. I'm happy to hear his blog does well.
As bloggers sometimes it is very easy to focus on areas we think will bring more traffic other than focusing on what your current followers are looking for. I especially like your idea of conducting a survey to discover areas to cover. A well designed survey can reveal hidden needs of your readers and can be of very great benefit for you and your followers.
Indeed, Samuel, writing about what we think might interest our readers can be dangerous sometimes, as we can be wrong. Glad you found the idea of running a survey useful.
This is a great topic which will help many to write articles targeted to their blog readers.
I think a great way to find out what people want from your blog is by running a blog poll. If you have subscribers then ask them as well what they would like you to write about next. Listen to the majority and construct a post that will blow them away.
You can also look at the top posts on your blog and write along that line.
Great post. Thanks very much!
Kharim, thanks! Running a poll on your blog sounds good. It's a faster way to gather data as when you were looking for that data through a survey.
I found out what really helped me out is before even applying these 5 items was to tightly focus my niche, so I wasn't everywhere when writing.
I have always had quite a broad website such as "how to" or "deals" that I just felt like I was trying to paint 4 walls at once, finally I focused on my "creating a website" website and feel that applying techniques like you are stating way easier.
Thanks for sharing, Christopher! I've also seen in my experience that more niche focused blogs generally drive better results than the ones covering a large variety of topics. Maybe you won't attract all kinds of readers, but you sure will attract the ones interested in the topic you're writing about. Plus, you have high chances that they'll become regular readers of your blog.
You can also check out blogs in your niche and see what commenters there are asking about. You can write about that, too.
That's a good piece of advice, thanks for sharing, Monica!
I totally agree that knowing what your website visitors want will help you better promote your product/services. Keyword research is precisely an important element in your online real esate marketing campaign to help you connect with your target audience.
James, offering relevant information like showing properties, events or activities, answering your visitors' queries, and encouraging them to express their thoughts from their experiences sounds like a good combination to me.
Thanks Sabina for such an informative link.
You are very welcome, James! Hope it helps.
In the world of internet today, engagement is most important. Everyone can have blogs, can have Facebook and Google Pages, but if no human interaction in between, it will just some trash in the internet world. People need to response, need to communicate.
If no engagement, so it's like you are talking and commenting something that is not real. And then, you no better that a robot in the search engine.
Hasrul, I agree – engagement is a must if you want to be successful as a brand. We can see enough examples around us, showing that people and brands engaging most definitely have better results.
Love the short, yet informative, actionable points. Currently I'm using at least 3 of these methods – but I find that the post traffic is the most useful one since you can see not only what content gets the most traffic but also how long people stay on the page and other important engagement factors.
Thanks for your appreciation, Daryl! Post traffic is indeed a very good source for seeing how content ranks, but also for analysing other aspects, as you mention.
I think the best way to do this is by checking traffic tools. We can analyze how visitors find our blog through search engine. Normally this particular keywords contain problem to solve. Then all we need is to explore more on the existing keywords. We will save time doing this.
Okto, indeed, traffic tools can show you what keywords drive traffic to your blog, and one can write their content based on those keywords, if they desire to.
Like you said in your words.... ask your readers on what kind of content they want to be seeing; simple.
You can also find where your ideal person hangs out and reach out to them there. I use tools that help me manage social profiles, blogs, forums and questions and answer websites. From here I can get a better idea of what peoples specific problems are and then create content tailored to what they're talking about.
David, thanks for sharing! It sounds like a good strategy to look for topics in the places you suggested, and then write about what you found out there.
As bloggers once in a while it is quite simple to concentrate on regions we think will carry more activity other than concentrating on what your present adherents are searching for. I particularly like your thought of leading a review to identify zones to blanket. A generally planned review can uncover shrouded requirements of your followers and might be of extremely incredible profit for you and your supporters.
Yes, agree, George, it's risky to concentrate on what we think will bring us traffic. Glad you liked the idea about conducting a survey for finding ideas from your readers.
I always write in a series.. Also, if I receive lots of comments on a single post, I will surely write another one related to that post..
I think one should ask their fans from Facebook page and Twitter!
These days, interview sessions are working like a charm..
Yes, many comments on a post, asking followers form social media can lead you towards finding the right topics for your content. Thanks, Dhruv!
Good article. You can often accomplish more by analysing your existing traffic and making things more efficient rather than trying to generate new traffic.
Although it's often neglected by a lot of people, I think number 2 works best. A lot can be solved by asking simple questions.
Thanks for your appreciation, Christina! I'm on the same page with you – analysing existing traffic and simply asking people what they want to know more about can be key ingredients for a blog's success.
This is a very informative article. The message is important even though it is delivered in simple form. There are different expectations of people that may read a blog, but these expectations may center around information, interaction or entertainment( as Darren Rowse puts it).
Listening to what the readers like through comment and surveys are simple ways of understanding what to blog about.
More so, this is not to undermine the importance of doing online research on keywords, post traffic, and engagement. These are vital takeaways every blogger must follow.
Sunday, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us! Glad you found the article informative.
Thank you for sharing this really informative post.
We should write for our readers not for search engines. Readers love it when we write from our heart.
Also reading comments are the best way to know what they actually want.
Swaraj, thanks, agree with you – always writing with the reader and with their interest in mind has the power to make your content much more engaging.
Thanks for the survey link! I am in the middle of expanding my blog and making it more focused.But I had the problem of finding out what that focus would be…So I asked! The response I got was totally not what I expected but when I thought about the answers I was getting it totally made since.Now I am trying to find a way to ask bigger audience or then the few readers I have so that my reach expands.Not sure how to do that but I work on it!!
You are very welcome, Marty, hope it helps you in your activity.
I've taken a look at your blog and saw the post where you are asking your readers in which direction should the blog go. As a piece of advice, you could create a survey for this research, since it would allow people to answer your questions more rapidly and with less effort (answering some predefined questions, maybe with multiple choice or text boxes for expressing their thoughts, requires less effort from them than writing an email from zero and sending it to you). If you decide to create a survey, you have several options on sharing it: you can post it on your blog, share it on your Facebook page and also on your Twitter account, inviting people to fill it out. And if you need a form building solution, 123ContactForm can help you with that (just follow the link from my name if you wish).
I hope this helps you further on. If you need guidance on the survey part, feel free to ask me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
This is really a great information. I truly learned a lot from your article. It really helpful. I always keep this in my mind.
Akash, thank you for your appreciation. I'm glad to hear you found it helpful.
This is a great list Sabina. I do most of these, but sometimes reading an article is more about keeping me on track and remembering to do these things! Just because I know some of this information doesn't mean I always act on it, but now I am motivated to go do some research.
Glad to hear that, Kalen. I think most of us know these things deep down, but as you said – sometimes it takes someone to remind us we don't only need to know them, but also to use them.
Thanks for this post. I think Keyword research is one of the most important thing. The whole Google is revolving around Keywords and Keyword Planner is an excellent tool to do so.
Hi Vidushi, thanks for sharing your thoughts. The Google Keyword Planner is indeed a great tool to use if you need to do some keyword research.
its an informative article, i haven't started a blog but you have motivated and helped me to gain my information on the blogging, currently i am working as an SEO but planning to start a blog as a hobby.
Hi Karan, I'm happy to hear that. I wish you good luck with starting and running your blog!
Listen to them and ask them. Good simple way to find out what people really want from your blog. FAQs is what I can suggest. By doing so, you can attract interested people and bring more traffic. Nice share! Informative!
Metz, thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Survey/poll+post traffic analysis is a killer combination indeed. Data you get from the traffic/engagement analytics can't be overestimated, but empowering your audience with ability to choose topics or suggest them is truly a gift. Who knows, maybe that shy, always avoiding commenting, guy will provide you with a brilliant, viral idea!
Max, I agree with you – some of the best ideas could come through crowdsourcing or through a "shy guy" whom you've never trusted an idea with potential of getting viral.
Thanks for the information. This is very interesting. When I blog, I try to put myself in the place of my readers, by asking myself, "What would I like to read on this blog if I were the visitor." What I try to do every time I create a blog post. on all of my blogs, is to challenge the reader to apply what they have read on my blog to their particular situation.
Chester, your strategy sounds very good. It's a common practice to put yourself in your reader's shoes and try to empathize with them. I like the idea on challenging the readers to apply what you write to their own cases.
Hello. First of all apologize if my words are not totally correct, I am using Google Translate.
The first to congratulate you on that article I feel very good. It is essential to know what is expected of us, especially when we are creating the blog is not mere entertainment, but a source of income.
When the blog is a source of income, should be treated as a business and all the major companies do market research study and of course the competition.
What I find most difficult is in the tools to analyze. Although seemingly simple, really are not, certain skills to manage and extract its full potential are needed.
Maybe someone can draw a good idea of this recommendation.
Hello Miguel, and thank you for expressing your thoughts. You're right, if you have a blog that should generate income, you have to treat the analytical and the strategy part more carefully. Of course, using tools to analyse data is not always so easy, but you can learn best by trying them out and by reading how-to articles on this topic. I wish you good luck!
Such a nice information …….In future i will always remember this ,when will i post any content on my blog, then i will remember it. Last point i like most , thanks for this beautiful post.
Thanks for your appreciation, Karamvir!
I am Just starting out. I have found this post inspiring and will make good use of your tips in my future blogging, especially the survey for better content and get the ideas from comments.
Glad to hear you found some inspiration in the post, Phuong. Let me know if you need help with creating a survey :) Best of luck with running your blog!
Know your focused service and product better, write content from user point of view , they wants only proper information with nice presentation.
This is really an informative article shared.Finding out what our readers want from our blog increases the readership of our blog. Get to know one important tip from here that use google analytics to check your post traffic and according to that write article.From now onwards i will follow this tip.
Thanks Priyanka! Glad to hear you found the article informative. Hope using Google Analytics will drive good results for your blog.
Sabina, thanks for your research and how the exhibit. I'm a marketer and I enjoy reading to learn and write in the future properly. I will continue your writing and I congratulate you.
Hector, thanks for your appreciation! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the reading and I wish you best of luck with your writing.
This is very awesome post. Your post is really informative and highly impressive for all guy. its appreciate to me googly analysis. thank you by sharing us get a professional email.
I feel incredibly fortunate that my readers engage. I have built a solid commenting community, which I moderate closely (no vitriol or Youtube style comments here!). I haven't yet asked what people want me to write about, but I like that idea. I already have used google keywords as inspiration for some articles, but I have not yet asked what people would be interested in seeing, though I've had a few whose comments inspired full blog posts, and I've had several folks who have written guest articles for me!
I am also fortunate that I'm in an extremely niche blogging group – I write about jiu jitsu, and there are very few women who do so. I keep writing jiu jitsu content, and they keep staying. It's really nice!
I wish I could better see information about Facebook – number of shares and likes – it's frustrating to see that X views are from facebook, but not to be able to see which communities or individuals have shared it!
Jiu Jiu, it's nice to hear that your blog is so successful! I think having found a niche topic to write about is of great usefulness, since your readers know what to expect when reading your posts.
Google Analytics can show you what words attracted readers toward your blog, from where you can of course choose to treat some ideas more in depth.
If your readers are already commenting on your posts, you can make a good idea of what is performing best in matters of topics. Asking them what they'd like to read more about could be a plus, since you could gain new ideas from there about what to cover.
As of Facebook, what I could suggest is creating a Facebook page for your blog, which you could promote and on which you could share your posts. There, you could see exactly who likes and shares your information and you also have Facebook insights which can further help you analyze your audience.
John, you are welcome! Thanks for stopping by and reading my article.
Been amazed by how much you can learn about what your blog readers want, by simply taking some time to analyze the keywords they type on search engines.
Philos, glad to hear that the idea of analyzing keywords made an impact on you.
I often check the search term that landed people to my blog and most times i find out i may not have covered the topic, so i quickly research and write a topic that best addresses that term. So just as you rightly mentioned, analyzing my analytics data gives me an insight into what people are looking for and i build on it and that way i will always attract people for such terms.
A few years ago I was a paid blogger meaning pretty much what it sounds like, I would get paid to run a companies blog. At my peak I was running 8 company blogs per month.
This isn't a sales pitch lol, so don't worry.
It's good to hear the post brought you some insights on the impact of blogging. I was a little surprised too, when seeing these numbers written in black and white. They really make you want to rush and start blogging. Good luck with your business blogging!
Sabina, we are running a blog and wants to generate local leads.. But i did not get local leads. i also have a reasonable traffic and social sharing. what should i do for that?
Thank you for your appreciation, Imran. I think that if your traffic volume is high, then it is a good sign because it means that people should be interested in your content. So, besides offering constant, relevant and high quality content, I would suggest trying to use strong calls-to-action that convert your visitors into leads (for example – "view now", "get trial"). You could even offer something for free like an ebook to download or others, asking readers to provide their contact details in exchange.
Hi, Sabina, First of all thanks for sharing this useful information for everyone..Can you update the how to increase the traffic with social media??
Jonathan, thanks for sharing your suggestion!
Hi Sabina, Really i appreciate your post, thanks for sharing an awesome information about blog, Please update how to increase the blog traffic..


Was this to Elkin or the Anthropology Society in, in Brisbane?
No. No. I don't think – not to my knowledge anyway. Not to my knowledge.
Yes. That's an interesting – almost like a contradiction, isn't it?
Between the way different people have known.
We were just talking about your Aunt Laura.
15:07:43:02     Oh yes, I do. Because my aunt was a great believer in tradition.
So there was a class difference?
So she'd miss the worst of the heat?
And when she came to Brisbane, Arthur would stay?
So how do you understand that kind of clause of your Aunt's will?
So, just explain then, as if I didn't know it, what happened to Mooraberrie.
15:16:44:00    Well, the – her children's fault. We should have taken her out.
Was that difficult for you as a child?

Le Musée de la mémoire vivante est un musée du Québec situé à Saint-Jean-Port-Joli. Il s'agit d'un musée de société voué à la personne et reconnu par le ministère de la Culture et des Communications du Québec . Il conserve, étudie et diffuse le patrimoine immatériel et la mémoire collective des gens du Québec et d'ailleurs. Des récits de vie, des savoirs et des pratiques sont mis en valeur au sein d'expositions dans le but d'enrichir la compréhension sociétale et la transmission de repères culturels aux générations actuelles et futures. Le musée est géré par la Corporation Philippe-Aubert-de-Gaspé.

Localisation
L'institution est localisé à Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, dans la MRC de L'Islet, sur les terres qui autrefois faisaient partie de la Seigneurie des Aubert de Gaspé. Les terrains du Musée sont adjacents au fleuve Saint-Laurent au nord et au Domaine de Gaspé au sud. Sur les terrains du Musée, on retrouve la reconstruction du manoir qui abrite le Musée, le sentier des Anciens-Canadiens, le tracé au sol des fondations de l'ancien manoir, un fournil du XVIIIe siècle et un caveau à légumes du XIXe siècle. Le jardin des Souvenirs, le jardin de pluie Fondation Veolia pour l'environnement, et la tour de l'Innovation sont également des éléments du terrain où se situe le Musée.

Histoire
La Corporation Philippe-Aubert-de-Gaspé, fondée en 1987, est à l'origine de la volonté de « reconstituer le domaine seigneurial et de reconstruire le manoir » des Aubert de Gaspé. Trois campagnes de fouilles archéologiques ont eu lieu entre 1988 et 1990. Le concept du Musée est élaboré à la suite de la Convention pour la sauvegarde du patrimoine culturel immatériel de l'UNESCO. La construction du Musée débute en 2007 et son inauguration a eu lieu en juin 2008. Le Musée de la mémoire vivante a été agréé par le gouvernement du Québec en 2019.

Expositions et activités
Le Musée de la mémoire vivante est doté de quatre salles d'exposition reparties sur deux étages ainsi qu' un espace « Regards sur la collection » aménagé en décembre 2019. De plus,  le hall du Musée et la salle de consultation à l'étage sont occasionnellement des espaces d' expositions issues de projets en partenairiat avec d'autres institutions.

L'ensemble des expositions du Musée de la mémoire vivante sont évolutives. Elles s'enrichissent de nouvelles réflexions, de recherches et de collaborations autour des différents thèmes abordés.

Le musée présente actuellement une exposition permanente, trois expositions temporaires et deux expositions virtuelles, en plus de l'espace dédié aux sculpteurs sur bois.

Exposition permanente
Le musée dispose d'une seule exposition permanente.

 Philippe Aubert De Gaspé est une exposition sur Philippe Aubert de Gaspé, sa vie et ses œuvres, et l'importance de ses écrits au sein de la littérature canadienne-française.

Expositions temporaires
Le musée dispose de deux expositions temporaires.

Pourquoi écrivent-elles tant ? : L'exposition, sur un sujet peu fréquent, s'articule autour de quatre générations de femmes d'une même famille qui pourraient aussi bien être le visiteur, ses descendants ou ses ascendants. Il s'agit donc d'une exploration de la pratique de l'écriture du journal intime. Par l'écriture sur soi, le ou la diariste témoigne de son quotidien et de son environnement à un moment précis. Invariablement, un portrait de société s'impose dans ces récits de vie, récits de faits précis ou de voyages.
Cueillettes d'hier et d'aujourd'hui, 2.0 : La cueillette sauvage de produits de sources végétale, animale ou minérale se fait depuis la nuit des temps, que ce soit par passion, pour se nourrir, se soigner ou fabriquer des objets. La richesse de la nature, les connaissances et l'ingéniosité des cueilleurs vous surprendra.
La pêche à l'anguille, un patrimoine vivant est une exposition sur la pratique de la pêche à l'anguille dans la région de Côte-du-Sud.

Last week, we were had a pleasure to attend WordCamp Raleigh 2011 and BlogWorld Expo New York 2011. This was the first time the BlogWorld Team held an event on the east coast, and we had a pleasure of attending. This was the second year straight that we attended WordCamp Raleigh. I was actually speaking in a panel at BlogWorld Expo with John Chow and Zac Johnson on a topic "Monetizing Your Blog Beyond the Banner Ads". I also spoke at WordCamp Raleigh on Speeding up WordPress and Maximizing Performance. This article is a personal reflection of my experience over that trip. I got to meet a lot of cool people, and some old friends as well. Before I say any further, I have to thank our awesome sponsors that stepped up and made this trip possible. Steve Burge from OSTraining was amazing because he stepped up and sponsored our entire trip to WordCamp Raleigh, and partial trip for BlogWorld NYC. Todd Garland from BuySellAds (Our full review), and John Saddington and Standard Theme team which stepped up to cover BlogWorld New York.
I had a pleasure attending both events. Michael Torbert, Craig Tuller, and Steve Mortiboy put up another great show at WordCamp Raleigh 2011. They were amazing hosts, and I want to thank them for that. Rick Calvert, Deb Ng, Dave, and the entire BlogWorld team put together another great event. I am proud to stay that I will do my best to attend the next WordCamp Raleigh, and BlogWorld LA later this year.
In the next 2 weeks, I will be attending WordCamp Kansas City, and WordCamp Columbus. I always love meeting WPBeginner readers and ofcourse the entire WordPress community. So if you are coming, then make sure we get a picture together.
Once again, I want to thank these awesome sponsors for making this trip possible. Seriously check them out.
Nice meeting you at blogworld!


"Influential and platinum-selling 2-Tone veterans."
Influential and platinum-selling 2-Tone veterans The Selecter released 'Too Much Pressure', their debut album, in 1980 and it remains a classic touchstone for a generation of ska lovers. Mixing punk, ska and reggae it contains the irresistible hits 'On My Radio', 'Three Minute Hero' and 'Missing Words'. Too Much Pressure successfully reflected the social and political issues of the early Thatcher years in Britain and gave a voice to disaffected youth across the racial divide.
2015 sees the band touring with new album 'Subculture' while still playing all their classic hits live!
