Interview // Elegies to What Was: A Conversation with Dorianne Laux
by Meryl Natchez | Contributing Writer
I got in touch with Dorianne Laux after reviewing her terrific Only as the Day Is Long: New and Selected Poems for PoetryFlash. I remembered a craft talk she gave at the Community of Writers about a period in which she felt very alienated from poetry, but found that when she was ready, the poems were there waiting for her—how generous and joyous that felt. As I had been busy with work and family and alienated myself from poetry, this talk resonated with me. I was especially moved that she found her way back to poetry through reading the work of George Herbert.
Now, of course, Dorainne Laux lives very much in the world of poetry. Her recent book, The Book of Men, won the Paterson Prize. Facts About the Moon won The Oregon Book Award and was short-listed for the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize. And What We Carry was a finalist for the National Book Critic's Circle Award.
She is recognized as a unique voice in the world of letters, and teaches poetry in the Program in Creative Writing at North Carolina State University. She is a founding faculty member of Pacific University's Low Residency MFA Program.
This interview took place at a crowded, noisy café a few blocks away from the Oregon Convention Center during AWP. I knew Dorianne's path towards poetic eminence was unusual, so I began by asking:
What was your path toward poetry?
I began writing when I was very young and after awhile I had all these poems. I thought I should do something with them, so I took a night class in San Diego with Steve Kowit. I was about 28 or 29. He was a wonderful teacher, and then I came to Berkeley and took a poetry class at the extension there with Alan Soldofsky. So I was meeting other poets and learning about poetry.
What were you doing during this time to earn a living?
I was mostly waiting tables.
There are a lot of waitresses in your poems.
A lot of waitresses for sure. I also did some work at old folks homes and sanitariums, but mostly waitressing. I worked managing a gas station for a long time.
I love that poem, "Fast Gas," a love poem and a poem of such power.
I used that experience. I was doing something completely outside the world of poetry, which none of my fellow workers understood. But that was okay. I had found my people. Whatever poet was out there publishing, I went to hear them speak: Jack Gilbert, Bob Hass, Brenda Hillman, Carolyn Kizer. It was a wonderful education.
I was having a few poems published in little magazines, and finally I put together a book. It was rejected by four or five of the best publishers. Then Philip Levine saw a poem of mine in a little local magazine called Five Fingers Review, and he wrote me a note through the magazine. He said "Please tell this woman I love her poem." And I wrote him a thank you note that began a long friendship.
He eventually submitted my manuscript to BOA Editions, and they took it within a week. He was really my mentor and a champion of my work early on.
That makes sense. I was describing your work to someone and I said that it is sort of the female counterpart to Philip Levine's work—your poems speak to the working class life in much the ways his do, but from a woman's perspective.
Yes, I think that's true.
So when your book was published, did your life change?
No. In fact, my publisher, Al Poulin at BOA Editions, said "I want you to know that your life is not going to change. You're still going to have to wash the dishes and get the trash out." And that was a good thing to be told by a practicing poet and an esteemed editor because of course you think your life is going to change because you have a book. And it isn't. As Philip Levine said when someone came up to him saying "Oh, you're so famous! How do you deal with it?" He said, "Oh, yes. I'm famous to literally dozens of people." You just have to put in perspective—it's a big deal, but only within a very small, rarified community. Of course that community has grown over the years, but still in the grand scheme of things it's a very small community. I'm so glad it's grown as much as it has.
But basically having a book or several books doesn't change your life. You just keep doing what you were doing before you had a book, which is to write more poems.
You had your book published, were you still waiting tables and working in convalescent homes?
By that time I had remarried, so I quit working. I went back to school and got my bachelor's degree and started teaching workshops. That kind of grew. I got better known in the academic community even though I only had a B.A. And the University of Oregon asked me to do a reading. Afterward they said, "Would you like to apply for a job here?" I said, "You must have me confused with someone else. I don't have an upper level degree." But they said, "You have books, so it doesn't matter."
And teaching has supported me all these years. I love the students, but I don't like the administrative work. So I much prefer teaching at workshops and conferences.
And you have a daughter, I believe? How has being a mother affected your writing?
Well, I was already a mother when I started writing seriously, so there wasn't really a change. It was always there. Anyone who has been a poet and a mother, especially back in the day when men were not taking as much responsibility, knows the struggle between finding time for writing and being a mother. I always had to work around her life. But there were times when I would say, "Oh, five more minutes, five more minutes."
This makes me think of that poem "Finding What's Lost," that starts: "In the middle of the poem my daughter reminds me / that I promised to drive her to the bus stop . . ." I think any mother who writes can relate to that. Did your daughter mind your preoccupation with writing?
I had a lot of concern about that. But later, when she was in her twenties, I asked if she resented the fact that I was always off to myself writing poems or gone to readings. And she said, "Oh, it didn't bother me at all. When my friends asked for a ride, their parents would say no, and they were only watching TV. You were writing books. You were doing something important." And I thought, all these years I've felt guilty—it took a lot of weight off to hear that.
I was at your reading at Marin Poetry Center, where you read a lot of poems about your mother who recently died. And I see that this is a whole section in your New and Selected book. Talk to me a little about how that entered your poetry.
Well, of course, my mom precipitated that. She really had convinced us all my life that she was dying. Then she actually died and it was such a shock. It hit me pretty hard. I immediately began writing poems about her. My mother has always been my muse. She's always been very mysterious to me, and when she died it was a chance to go back and revisit her as my muse.
I think the thing that's different about these poems is that many of them are formal, and I've never really written formal poetry. I do try to write a sonnet once a year; they never seem to work. But for these poems I found I needed form to contain the chaos of her dying. I felt untethered from the world. I never really had a father, so my mother was it. So with her death it felt like being an astronaut out in space and losing the umbilical cord to the mother ship—just free floating. I didn't know it would be that way. The poems came quickly and naturally.
She comes across as a very vivid, specific person.
For as much confusion and angst I have, I think the poems are really elegies to what was so unique about her. She's like everyone's mother, but the details are so specific. I wanted everyone to get a feel for the woman I grew up with. She was a woman I was alternately very angry at but also extremely lucky to have had as a mother.
Even when you were young you felt that?
I always looked at my mother and thought that she was amazing. She was a tall, beautiful, Katherine Hepburn-type woman who played classical piano and read books about philosophy and talked politics. She was just not like any other mother on our block. It was women who cooked and cleaned and took care of the kids. My mother always had interests way beyond the family. She was an intellectual in a working class environment. I admired her so deeply and I was also embarrassed and deeply ashamed by her. That's a bone of contention in a neighborhood like that. Kids would make fun of us: "So where's your mother?" Or neighbor kids would come over and beat us up because they knew we had no mother or father in the house. It made us vulnerable.
So you resented her for that?
I wished sometimes I could give her a little primer about being a mother. But what I learned from my mother was discipline. The house was always in chaos but she practiced piano every day. She was dedicated to getting it exactly right, practicing over and over till it was right. And she also went back to school and studied to be a nurse, and I saw her excitement about learning. I watched her study her books and make notes. She studied biology and psychology and things that were impossible to understand. She became the first paramedic nurse in California. She became an emergency nurse and ran an emergency room for awhile.
But as a nurse, unless one of us had an open, sucking wound she would say, "Get some iodine, it's nothing." So she was out there taking care of strangers and her own kids were running around half-washed and being beaten up by the neighbors.
There wasn't really childcare back then.
No, there was me. I was the childcare. I was the oldest.
A lot of that experience comes through in the book. I really love the arc of the New and Selected poems.
Joe (Joe Millar, Dorianne's husband and also a poet) helped me with that, because I got to a point where I couldn't decide what to put in what to leave out, and he was really helpful shaping the final manuscript.
So what's next for you?
I'm not sure. I have a lot of poems, and I kept trying to put them together with the poems about my mother but they just didn't fit. So Joe and I decided to make them a section of the New and Selected. They are their own group of poems, especially following the poems that lead up to them. So hopefully they will reach others who are dealing with a parent's death. It makes you think about your life in a new way. It's a wake up call. I definitely have enough poems for a new book, but right now I'm caught in up in the wake of the New and Selected. I haven't really had time to think about it.
But as for the future, I guess I am planning to phase into retiring from teaching. Do more workshops, see where it goes. We will be settling in the Bay Area again, and I hope to be doing more workshops there. I really enjoy the workshops, and mostly like to do them as generative. That way participants go home with at least an idea for a poem. I love that kind of teaching and hope to do more of it.
Dorianne Laux's fifth collection, The Book of Men, was awarded The Paterson Prize. Her fourth book of poems, Facts About the Moon won The Oregon Book Award and was short-listed for the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize.

"Dead Wrong" is a story arc of the Marvel Comics' award-winning comic series, Runaways. The story arc features the first appearance of the creative team of Terry Moore and Humberto Ramos. The arc is composed of the first six issues of the series' third volume.

Production
Terry Moore was announced to take over the series during summer 2006. Moore hadn't read Runaways until the job offer came up; after getting more information about the Marvel Universe and Runaways from his son, Moore "fell in love" and describes the characters with great detail and passion. Moore mentioned that one of his favorite scenes in this story arc involved the beach scene with Molly and Klara.

Humberto Ramos's incarnations of the Runaways differs greatly from those of previous artists Adrian Alphona, Mike Norton, and Michael Ryan. For Karolina, he used his personal opinion to draw her, deliberately breaking style with the previous artists for the benefit. His drawing of Nico was meant to look sexy. As for Chase, he modeled Chase into a typical "big blond hunk of California surfer", because Chase should be "the muscle in the team." Ramos regularly goes onto Yahoo! Shopping, looking for the latest ideas in fashion for Molly and Klara's Hannah Montana-inspired clothes. Xavin's gender is to be determined by the way the story progresses, Victor remains more or less the same, but Old Lace differs greatly. With a much longer jaw, the dinosaur appears a lot larger than previous incarnations.

Story

Plot
The duo's pilot issue (August 27, 2008) had the Runaways find a third hiding place at Chase's parent's former Malibu home. Klara saves her first life, Chase's new radio station manager boss, Bob, who mysteriously falls off the tower during a heart attack. When returning home, the Runaways discover that the remaining Majesdanians (Karolina's alien race) have arrived; deHalle, vaRikk, vaDanti, and the General have the desire to hunt Karolina down for the problems caused on their planet. With the help of a spell from Nico ("Scatter") she manages to separate the Majesdanians, sending vaRikk to Africa, deHalle to Antarctica, and the General to China (September 24, 2008). Her spell fails to work on vaDanti, so the Runaways hold him captive. Meanwhile, Val Rhymin kills Bob, the station manager. It is revealed in the third issue that Nico's spell actually also affected the Runaways; a reason why they are also slowly breaking up.

Setting
Like previous writers Brian K. Vaughan and Joss Whedon, Moore continues to make cultural references: YouTube, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), movie director Kevin Smith. The films Psycho, Jurassic Park, and Rocky Balboa from the Rocky film series are also referenced.

Characters
Nico Minoru leads the team. She is a witch who controls magic.
Karolina Dean is an extraterrestrial, who controls solar energy.
Chase Stein has a psychic link to a dinosaur and owns fire/electric-manipulating gauntlets.
Molly Hayes is a mutant whose powers include super-strength and invulnerability.
Victor Mancha is a cyborg who has the ability to control metal and electricity.
Xavin, a shape-shifting alien has the abilities of the Fantastic Four.
Klara Prast, the latest member, has the ability to control plants.

The Widening Wealth Gap
By Jaclyn Seeler Mar 17, 2016
The wealth gap is a term used to describe the phenomenon of inequality amongst classes of people. In Canada, class is determined by one's income, assets and overall wealth accumulation and then one is categorized into high, middle or lower class. Those living in lower class or poverty can also be considered living below the low income cut off (LICO) as revealed by Statistics Canada (2015). LICO was an income threshold created to describe those that will spend 20% more of their income on the basic necessities of living like food, shelter and clothing (Statistics Canada, 2015). Interestingly, there is not a threshold to be considered a high income earner. Statistics Canada calculates a median income for each province and those earning well-above the median income, by Canadian social norms, could be considered a high income earner.
Inequality between classes is not limited to income alone. Inequality can be determined by looking at health outcomes, educational background, race, gender, family size, disabilities, mental health challenges, geographical location, and access to opportunity, overall asset accumulation, social inclusion, among many others and reviewing what the disparities are within categories and between the three classes. Research is also expanding to determine why fewer Canadians are holding more of Canada's wealth while more individuals are falling below the poverty line. A wealth gap is a detriment to every society as all forms of inequality are. A society cannot fully thrive or work at its highest capacity when most of the individuals, as determined by a wealth gap, do not have access to the same educational and employment opportunities, health outcomes, income and political decision making power.
In April 2014, Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (CCPA) produced a report titled "Outrageous Fortune" to document the urgency of this phenomenon in our current social landscape. CCPA stated that the richest 20% of Canadians hold 70% of Canada's wealth, and that income inequality amongst the various classes in Canada has continued to increase at a startling rate. To put this into further perspective, CCPA illustrated that the wealthiest 86 Canadians held the same wealth as the bottom 10.1 million Canadians and between 2005-2012 the top 10% of Canadians saw their median net worth grow by 42% while the bottom 10% of the country saw their median net worth shrink by 150% (2014). Many might wonder why this gap is such a problem especially when living in Canada where access to free education and higher paying employment is an "equal opportunity" for everyone; however, increasing statistics such as this prove that "equal opportunity" is more of an illusion than a democratic right for many.
According to a research article titled "Consumption, income, and wealth inequality in Canada" (2010) the wealth gap has many negative effects on Canadians when those with lower incomes tend to work longer hours for lower wages, are the first to experience unemployment in a recession and experience instability in wages, have less education than their wealthier counterparts and therefore less choice in their line of work, poorer health outcomes and these numbers can differentiate depending on race and gender (2010). Although interestingly, more females than males are now graduating from post-secondary institutions and yet still make less wages overall than their male counterparts. Trends like this are alarming but can offer insight into how our overall social structure is effective for some groups of people and not effective for others.
The concept of a widening wealth gap is not a new one. A review of income and wealth written in 1988 by the Economic Council of Canada illustrated the very same concept of an increase in wealth inequality that we are still seeing today. They discussed the high numbers of single-elderly-females living in poverty and single-parent households headed by females as at-risk groups for poverty. These two same trends remain true today and due to the feminization of poverty and the fact that more single-parent households headed by females are raising children while living in poverty, can be directly correlated to the increase in inter-generational poverty which describes that children growing up in poverty are more likely to live and raise their children in poverty as well (Statistics Canada, 2014). As seen within this research from 1988 to now, various trends and the types of groups categorized as living in poverty remains much the same which means that moving out of poverty still remains a difficult task for many.
Canada has a threshold of what is deemed a low income but not a threshold for what is considered to be a high income or what a person needs to have to be considered a wealthy person beyond social norms; assets, accumulation of goods and items, prestige and more. When discussing matters of poverty as a society we often provide bottom lines, but the opposite is true when discussing matters of wealth. An example of this can be seen within minimum wage discussions. Advocates argue that increasing the minimum wage or calculating a living wage for Canadians will decrease the effects of poverty in their lives and while this may be true and a great solution for a period of time, within our capitalist system the basic economic concepts of supply and demand would illustrate that as income and spending increases the cost of goods and services increases, so we have a constant push and pull to increase wages for low income earners while battling the market as wealth accumulates and the minimum wage push ultimately becomes ineffective.
Canada needs an uprising within the low income community. If we want to increase minimum wage then we should also do so while simultaneously imposing maximum thresholds as well. Civilizations survived long before currency existed and at one time the work we completed was to survive and share our resources with each other, yet the accumulation of and the need for more wealth, goods, power and control has become a large motivator behind decision making today. We can't eliminate poverty and bridge the gap between social classes if we don't also fix the disease of greed as well.
Within an oppressive and integrated social system, members do not often have the option of free choice and for many, the system appears to be inflexible to change. This type of thinking can lead to a further exploitive society in which separation of people breeds a false consciousness and the cycle of oppression continues. With fewer individuals keeping the wealth to and for themselves while hosting the idea that we all constantly need more for ourselves, class inequality within a capitalist market has never been more apparent or useful for the wealthy than it is today. Without a change in the way we think, live and spend our money, this widening wealth gap will continue to grow. We all require a total revolution. We need to bring accumulation to a level of controlled measure, eliminate the motivation of needing more and learn to share resources with one another. Only then can we finally begin to create a new culture founded on things of value beyond the material which is crucial to eliminating the wealth gap and building equitable communities. Disempower the individual agenda. Sharing is caring.

Mathematician John Nash rose to fame when the biographical film "A Beautiful Mind" was released in 2001. But Nash's life story is even more wrought with intrigue and struggle than the Oscar-winning movie portrays. Nash's 1994 Nobel Prize is a testament to his perseverance in the face of adversity, namely schizophrenia.
John Nash was born on June 13, 1928, in the small city of Bluefield, W.V., in the Appalachian Mountains. His father, also named John Nash, worked as an electrical engineer, while his mother, Margaret Virginia Martin, taught English and Latin before marrying.
He became interested in electrical and chemistry experiments by the time he reached high school, and considered becoming an electrical engineer. Nash eventually enrolled in Carnegie Tech (now Carnegie Mellon University) and majored in chemical engineering, but he would lose interest in chemical engineering after being introduced to international economics.
The Nobel Foundation: John F. Nash Jr.
Nash's career was interrupted in 1958 when he experienced his first paranoid schizophrenic episode. The illness was catastrophic for Nash, resulting in lost jobs and nearly 20 years of aimless roaming. He eventually returned to Princeton, and the schizophrenia subsided in the early 1970s. But Nash had trouble adjusting; in some ways, he felt his disease had allowed him to perform his best, most original work, according to The New School.
UAB economics professor Don Ross explains game theory in depth. The theory includes the "Nash equilibrium" (NE), which expanded on previous work by mathematicians John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern in 1944.
Watch two interviews with Nash conducted in 2004 and 2009.
Sylvia Nasar, a reporter for The New York Times, spent years researching Nash's life and work, and in 1998 published a biography of him entitled "A Beautiful Mind," which was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Biography. The 2001 film adaptation, directed by Ron Howard and starring Russell Crowe as Nash, won four Academy Awards, including Best Film.
PBS' American Experience documentary "A Brilliant Madness" offers a more accurate look at Nash's life. The program's Web site includes a teacher's guide that explores American history topics, such as the Cold War and the uses of Nash's game theory in foreign diplomacy.


LIVERPOOL midfielder Lucas is heading for the Anfield exit.
The Brazil ace's future is in serious doubt after he was left out of the squad for Sunday's 1-0 win over Stoke despite Joe Allen being absent through injury.
Lucas, 28, was not injured leading to speculation he has fallen out with boss Brendan Rodgers.
He played yesterday in a friendly against Welsh club TNS - in which £29m summer signing Roberto Firmino scored a hat-trick - and Inter Milan are now ready to pounce.
Lucas is not known as one of Liverpool's star men but his hard-working attitude has made him a popular figure at the club.
If he does leave then Rodgers may be forced to dip back into the transfer market.
It was believed the Reds were done after bringing in six new faces this summer costing a combined £80m.
But they would be short of cover in midfield if Lucas departs and Rodgers will have to consider his options.
Lucas joined the Reds in 2005 and is the current longest serving player in their squad after he overcame a difficult start to life at Anfield.
Serie A side Inter have been linked with him in the past but the Reds have been unwilling to sell.
Their hand may be forced now if Inter make a move before the transfer window closes on September 1.
Rodgers could also run into bother with defenders Mamadou Sakho and Alberto Moreno.
Sakho, 25, was left out of the squad completely on Sunday while Moreno was on the bench with debutant Joe Gomez starting in his place.

As the Axioma team looked back on 2016, we realized that it truly was a watershed year for markets and managers. And we started pondering the question: "Now what?" One thing became abundantly clear – no one really has a clue – at Axioma or anywhere else. If we did, we'd be forever on a beach somewhere (well, at least I would). But, what we do have is a unique perspective on risk solutions, the managers they serve and how they can drive performance. We think it valuable to share our perspective, and that's the purpose of this blog.
1. The rise of Multi-Asset Class investing: Multi-asset class investing is no different than other types of investing – in the end it is about balancing the trade-off in the portfolio between risk and return. But multi-asset class portfolios are typically constructed differently than single-asset portfolios, which are usually built from the bottom up based on knowledge about the individual securities in the portfolio. Multi-asset class portfolios, on the other hand, are often built from the top down and are designed to meet certain factor-exposures. In this blog, we'll explore the tools and strategies that facilitate the construction of multi-asset class portfolios.
2. The race for the most insightful analytics. The race for the most insightful analytics. In multi-asset class investing, the individual asset classes that once provided automatic portfolio diversification are becoming more and more interconnected. This leads to increased correlations among those asset classes. And the only way for asset managers to understand and capitalize on those complex dynamics is with mathematical models and truly effective and insightful analytics. The "race" is on to use emerging analytically-driven techniques, such as predictive analytics, AI and deep learning, to find superior insights and drive better performance.
3. The rise of the Quants. More and more portfolio managers are adding quant tools to their investment processes for three main reasons. First, many realize that quant tools are excellent in detecting unintended risks. Second, as asset owners become increasingly sophisticated, they are demanding quant measures and analytics from their asset managers. And third, as asset owners shift their focus to factor investing, quantitative tools become even more relevant and ubiquitous.
4. Smart Beta. When we started evaluating smart beta, we discovered that many products vigorously marketed as smart beta are often neither smart nor beta. Smart beta strategies are supposed to be quant strategies, but many smart beta manufacturers sacrificed portfolio construction techniques for "simplicity." We will explore how quant strategies come to the rescue of smart beta to bring more discipline and focus to the portfolio-construction process. The result will be "smarter" smart beta products as a result of improved portfolio construction. These products will have greater immunity to sudden market moves that affect performance.
5. Cloud Technology. A recent report by PwC said that 52% of asset-management CEOs believe that cloud computing is strategically vital to the futures of their organizations. The goal? To leverage the scalability and elasticity of the cloud in order to maintain performance. We view the use of the cloud as integral to the analytics discussed above.
6. Regulatory reporting. There is increasing convergence of risk and regulatory reporting. Consistency when talking about risk—from the front, to the middle, to the back office—is now a de facto requirement.
Complexity and change in investment management, technology and regulation are all accelerating. Add in the mounting pressure on performance and fees and you have a perfect storm. To help you weather that storm, we'll provide our unique perspective on the above topics as well as advancements in the fields of big data analytics, machine learning and artificial intelligence, which only portend good news for the investment industry.


It will have some downsides, which I'm likely to cover on, but overall it's a superb tool that you can utilize to construct landing pages, revenue funnels with performance and membership groups. It is packed which you can customize however you see fit.
ClickFunnels incorporates with Paypal, Stripe, and other kinds of payment processors, which makes it easy to incorporate if you take payments online for the services. Additionally, it allows to be inserted pretty much everywhere in certain page, which allows for you to truly customize your landing page, and even offer additional checkout options. You can also supply pricing options and different price points for your customers, built into the landing pages.
ClickFunnels is a tool, just like any other software. You can earn money online and Clickfunnels will help you reach your goals, but ONLY if you put in the job. ClickFunnels isn't a get rich quick scheme — it is a tool that will help you sell more products and achieve your customers.
First and foremost, WordPress is awesome. If a content based site is running , then WordPress should be your content management platform, and there is no reason that you work through ClickFunnels.
BUT — I do think that ClickFunnels includes a complete suite of alternatives for almost any niche site builder, and that you should consider it if you're thinking that you are likely to start outsourcing some of your work. If you're running an Amazon FBA business, having a ClickFunnels subscription may be worth considering; especially in the event that you run paid visitors to your products in your ecommerce website.
If you market any sort of product both physical and digital (applications, membership site, etc) then I presume ClickFunnels is worth taking a look for it has innovative selling attributes.
I have used a range of different page builders (mostly Thrive Architect and Divi Builder by Elegant themes). I will say that I feel ClickFunnels is the most comprehensive solution package for your cost that you can buy. The ability to build your own membership website is superb. It is possible to use the membership sections for a few things that are distinct.
You can sell your classes, or you may do what I have done that is use it to login as a place for my authors, editors and link builders for what I expect them to do after I have hired them, and view their briefs. It is essentially a training program for how I conduct the rear end of my content.
It integrated with a customized domainname, so that you may set up your landing pages, membership website or revenue funnels in your own site, or a customized domainname. It has a plugin which permits you to incorporate it with WordPress as well, should you bill your clients as they have their own set of SSL needs when taking payments, though you can't accept payments on your own WordPress site. You can also start your funnel onto your website, and sponsor the steps of this funnel where payments have been taken on the default platform for ClickFunnels.
What I love most about the ClickFunnels applications, is the drop and drag functionality. If you have any type of marketing experience, it is far simpler than using WordPress natively as you are looking at it and you build the webpage. No more"save it" and hit"preview" to see how it looks. WordPress is what you should be using for content based sites, but ClickFunnels may make a powerful ally if you plan on selling membership programs or merchandise to your clients that visit your site. The customization options are basically limitless when building out a marketing funnel.
The pros outweigh the disadvantages, as you can see. Some of the cons are pretty nitpicky, including the URLs being cluttered, but that is more of a personal preference than anything. I know there are lots of other landing page builders that people will use, including Thrive Architect by Thrive Themes. I've found the funnel measure integration to be some of the simplest funnel applications .
With TA, link to the pages in the sequence, then you'll need to design the webpage and it is done within WordPress. While I adore Thrive and their themes, I do think that ClickFunnels is easier to use than TA, but obviously it comes at a monthly price.
It will have some downsides, which I'm going to cover later on, but it's an excellent tool that you could utilize to construct landing pages, revenue funnels with even membership groups and upsell/downsell functionality. It is packed with pre-made templates that you can customize however you see fit.
ClickFunnels and Paypal Stripe, and other types of payment processors integrate, which makes it easy to incorporate if you take payments online. It also allows for custom code to be added pretty much anywhere in a given page, allowing for you to customize your landing page, and also provide other checkout options. You might supply pricing options and different price points for your clients, built into the landing pages.
ClickFunnels is a tool. You can earn money online and Clickfunnels can help you reach your objectives, but ONLY if you place in the job. ClickFunnels isn't a get rich quick scheme — it is a tool that will help you achieve your clients and sell more products.
WordPress is awesome. If you're running a content based site WordPress should be your content management system, and there's no reason for you to operate through ClickFunnels.

What I love most about the ClickFunnels applications, is that the drag and drop functionality. It's much more easy than using WordPress natively if you have any sort of internet marketing experience as it is being looked at by you, and you literally build the webpage. No longer"save it" and hit"preview" to see how it seems. WordPress remains what you should be using for content based websites, but ClickFunnels can make a powerful ally if you intend on selling subscription programs or products. The customization options are basically infinite when building out a proper marketing funnel.
The pros outweigh the disadvantages, as you can see. Some of the cons are nitpicky, including the URLs but that's more of a personal preference than anything. I am aware that there are lots of landing page builders which we will use, including Thrive Architect by Thrive Themes. I've discovered the funnel step integration to be some of the easiest funnel software to design however.
With TA, connect to the pages at the sequence, and then you will want to design the page and it's all done inside WordPress. While I love Thrive and their subjects, I do believe that ClickFunnels is inherently simpler to use than TA, but it comes in a price.

As Publishing Editor of The Enviropaedia, and actively involved in environmental conservation since youth, I am aware of many facts about the havoc we are wreaking on our Earth and eco-systems. I am also aware that these facts have been repeatedly presented in magazines and newspapers, shouted in anger by protesters against government apathy and presented soberly in scientifically-based films that have shocked the world. Yet, despite all these warnings, the global human response to these facts and information have been consistently, hopelessly inadequate.
As a result, I found myself asking the question 'Why?
This means that to effectively deal with many of our social and environmental problems today – we need to change the way we think!
When you look at the information and environmental warnings that have been given to business, government and the public in the past, you will see that they mostly focus on the current physical conditions (like litter, pollution, environmental degradation, extinction and climate change) but they do not address the underlying thinking, beliefs, attitudes and values which drive our behaviours- which in turn produce the devastating effects and outcomes that we are now faced with.
Trying to solve our environmental challenges by addressing the outcomes and effects, without addressing the underlying cause (our values and thinking patterns) is like trying to fix a flat tyre by pumping in more air without first closing the hole in the tyre.
If we want different outcomes and environmental conditions, we therefore first need to identify and change the inappropriate thinking and value systems that have motivated and driven our destructive behaviours in the past. Our changed minds will then produce different behaviours which in turn will result in changed social and environmental conditions.
· Evolving from dis-connection - to: 'Dynamic harmony with Nature': As more than half of the world's population now live in cities and most of the food and drink we eat is either synthetic or so packaged that we hardly recognise it as a product produced by Nature, it is not surprising that we have lost touch with the value and importance of Nature. As a result, many no longer care or see the relevance of Nature in their lives. This disconnection and lack of care has provided permission and opportunity for an exploitative few to plunder and pillage Nature and natural resources to the very edge of extinction in the interests of their own profit. It is therefore Eco-Logical to re-mind ourselves that Nature provides the very foundation of our food, water, air and climate, and to therefore begin to care for and protect Nature once again. Not only can a revitalised personal relationship with Nature improve our own physical, emotional and spiritual equilibrium (harmony) but through 'biomimicry' (an exciting new art/science of carefully studying the way in which Nature produces its materials and processes) we can dramatically improve our commercial and consumer products and services ( see Biomimicry website for examples ). This study and mimicking the way Nature operates has also been extended to look at the way that our economies operate and can be improved to become more effective and sustainable through nature-based 'Circular Economy' and ' Blue Economy' (see here ) practices. The massive social, economic and efficiency benefits of actively engaging with and deliberately 'harmonising' with Nature can literally change our world for the better quite rapidly.
· Evolving from short-term - to : 'Generational thinking': Today's demand for instant gratification, our fast moving stock market trading and the short term profit orientation of most businesses drives a predominant pattern of short term thinking. The Earth however operates in long term cycles and the effects of our actions today often only becomes evident after long periods or even generations later. Meeting our short term objectives without considering the long term effects on the Earth and its eco-systems therefore inevitably leads to a compromise of the security and sustainability of the Earth in the long term, with a knock-on threat to ourselves and our businesses. It is therefore Eco-Logical to look at the long term impact of our actions and to develop a long term strategy in our businesses to maintain the sustainability of the Earth, ourselves and our businesses. Every Director and employee should therefore have included in their 'Key Performance Indicators' (KPI's) a specific target or objective to contribute to the long term sustainability strategy of both their organisation and the Earth (which provides the basic resources for every individual and organisation to survive and thrive).
· Evolving from specialist - to: 'Holistic thinking': Our education systems and employment options promote specialisation – which narrows the focus of interest and attention. However, our world consists of many interconnected and mutually interdependent parts and systems that make up the operating whole. Any decisions that are made based exclusively on a narrow or specialist focus of interest is therefore highly likely to have harmful and or unintended consequences on some of the associated and interconnected parts, which can in turn destabilise the whole. It is therefore Eco-Logical, to look carefully at the implications of our choices and decisions from a holistic and systemic perspective before implementing our plans. Before implementing any significant action or strategy, it should therefore be pre-viewed from a 'holistic perspective 'to avoid collateral damage to other connected parts of the system.
· Evolving from ego-centric – to an: 'Ubuntu society': The western culture exported and promoted worldwide through media, sports and entertainment, glorifies and encourages; independence, individuality and self-expression. Whilst these qualities have indisputable merits, an over-focus on the individual has significantly eroded our awareness that we are all part of a co-dependent community. When we lose perspective of our individual responsibility for sustaining and supporting the community we live in, we lose many highly valuable benefits of a mutually supportive Ubuntu based society (see here), with disastrous social and economic consequences that are being witnessed on a worldwide scale today. This applies to both the human and non-human communities on Earth. It is therefore Eco-Logical for us to re-invigorate an Ubuntu and Eco-Ubuntu consciousness and culture wherein we honour and respect individuals rights provided that they do not negatively affect or compromise the stability and well-being of the collective society we live in. This should apply to both the human society and the non-human population of the Earth – as we are all absolutely mutually dependent on each other to survive.
· Evolving from consumerism - to a ( socially and environmentally ) 'Creative culture': The relatively recent cultural habit of consumerism is driving our consumption of the Earth's material resources faster than the Earth can actually replenish them - and the processes used to produce such excessive amounts of goods are polluting and destroying our planet (see here). The sales and marketing messages that drive such insatiable material consumerism have misled us in our search for self-fulfilment and diverted our attention away from the non-material qualities and assets that give us 'quality of living' as opposed to 'quantity of assets'. With an increased focus and appreciation of non-material qualities and assets that create or add to the quality of our society and environment ( including ; beauty, harmony, elegance, intelligence, knowledge, skills, innovation, spiritually and culturally uplifting practices), we become less dependent on material consumption for our pleasure and personal fulfilment, resulting in less depletion of the Earth's finite resources. It is therefore Eco-Logical to free ourselves from the Earth-destructive treadmill of consumerism and to respect most those who create and contribute most to our society and environment (rather than those who consume most of the Earth's limited resources and give little back ). However, in recognising that we do all need to consume to some degree, it is also Eco-Logical for us to choose goods and materials of the highest quality as in general, they will last longer and thus deplete less of the Earth's resources in the long term.
· Evolving from knowledge – to: 'Wisdom': To be truly Eco-Logical, we should utilise the full extent of our physical, mental and emotional human capacities. In recent years however, both business and scientific schools of thought have all but dismissed as irrelevant anything other than our intellectual capacity and knowledge based information. This has resulted in a lack of care and compassion with devastating outcomes and effects on both people and planet. In contrast to this limited perspective of 'intelligence' there is abundant evidence to demonstrate that we humans, like our cousins the animals, have a very important and practically useful capability of intuition, sometimes referred to as 'heart based' or 'emotional intelligence'. This form of intelligence adds a 'qualitative' dimension to the intellectual 'quantitative' basis of evaluating facts and information. When consensus is reached between intellect and intuition (when it is both intellectually 'logical' and 'makes sense' using our intuitive senses), then the outcome is likely to be more balanced, compassionate and sustainable (wise). It is therefore Eco-Logical to embrace and utilise all of our natural and valuable human capabilities in order to achieve a more 'wise' perspective and basis for our evaluation, decision-making and planning.
· Building an Eco-Logical W.I.L.L (World I would Love to Live in): Currently there is a lot of public and media attention on what we don't want (Climate change, environmental devastation and social unrest) but very little on what we do want – so it is worth remembering that we give energy and power to that which we focus our attention on. I also observe that whereas struggling 'against' something is divisive and exhausting (it slowly wears you down), when fighting 'for' something together with others (like political freedom; equal gender rights; saving people or planet), it is more stimulating, invigorating and exciting. It builds unity and power. Therefore, in order to transition into a more Eco-Logical community and environment, it will be highly beneficial and empowering for us to identify and create a clear goal and definition of the society and environment that we would really love to live in and are willing to work and fight for. Beginning with identifying our own, personal Eco-Logical picture of the world that I would love to live in, we can then share this with others till we achieve a collective vision that is so (physically, emotionally and financially) attractive that it inspires and motivates us all to work together, in our (wonderful and desirable) diversity to achieve it despite the apparent odds – remembering Madiba's words "It always seems impossible – until it's done". There are some great sources of inspirational ideas here and here – enjoy re-creating your own reality!
Growing out of these seven roots, founded in the logic of our inter-connectedness, focused on a long term vision of a harmonious, Ubuntu society, inspired by Nature, utilising the full extent of our intellectual and intuitive capabilities, and driven by a socially and environmentally creative culture, we can evolve to become 'eco-logical human beings' living rich and rewarding lives today whilst building a firm foundation to support the well being of our entire Earth community tomorrow.

If I haven't said it before, it's time you know that Old Navy is K I L L I N G it, lately. Like, for real, though. I hadn't been in the store in years, until recently, when I stopped to pick up a t-shirt I had seen online. Then, I started noticing sweater after sweater that I wanted to take home with me (and may, or may not have.) Something that I'm particularly hooked on is their activewear.
From hoodies, to compression tights, they have it all, and haven't skimped on the quality - not to mention they have them in so many cute prints and patterns. Oh, by the way, all their activewear is on sale for up to 40% off right now, so head on over and have yourself a peeksy!
i have been so into activewear lately, mainly for the comfort factor, bc this pregnancy has not had me in much of a workout mood, but im loving the fun print on the pants and the shawl collar is so fab!! thanks for the sale tip, im heading over to the site now!
I totally agree Old Navy is killing it! I stopped in last night and ended up getting a few pieces of their activewear. I really like your workout tights!
Haven't been in there in YEARS but I will head there tomorrow!
Sooo cute!!! Looks like I'll be making a stop to Old Navy!!
I know Old Navy it killing it lately!! You look adorable in this outfit.
those tights are amazing!!! omg!! must head to old navy!!


The reason urlencode() is there is because if your task pane url has querystring parameters, the url would've been scrambled up as it got passed down to the task pane.
Could you possibly elaborate more on the reason for failure?
I see that version 2.0.2 of MGOS worked fine and didn't include this urlencode.
The problem I think is that urlencode is encoding the full url, and must encode only the parameters. Because if my taskpane url is "../PROJECTNAME/start.php" urlencode is going to change the slashes '/' to %2F!!! and my url will be "..%2FPROJECTNAME%2Fstart.php" that doesn't seems ok.
The solution is to write the *decoded* url out to the template, while still passing the encoded version to child frames.

Tommy La Slugger: How Angels' La Stella found his power stroke
May 21, 2019 cheap nfl jerseys 0 Comment
Tommy La Stella had compiled 947 plate appearances across five major league seasons by the time he turned 30, a sample representative enough to typecast. The numbers described him as a slap hitter with no power, and La Stella could've been fine with that. His strengths -- putting pitches in play, differentiating balls from strikes, getting on base -- were enough for sustained employment in his line of work. Change seemed unnecessary. Imprudent, even.
But La Stella remained firm in his belief that there was more in him. Now he stands among the great statistical marvels of the 2019 season, as he has hit more home runs through seven weeks than he managed through five seasons.
"It is weird," La Stella said. "And it's crazy that it's seemingly coming right away, at the beginning of the season. But I always felt like I had the ability to drive the baseball."nike nfl jerseys wholesale cheap
La Stella has gone deep more times than Mike Trout and Albert Pujols. He belted his team-leading 11th home run in his 109th at-bat of 2019 after managing only 10 of them in 828 at-bats from 2014 through 2018. The Los Angeles Angels' confounding second baseman has three multi-homer games, despite entering this season with only one, and he trails just eight major league players in home run percentage.
There is no logical explanation. La Stella, listed generously at 5-foot-11 and 180 pounds, hit one home run in 169 at-bats while serving mostly as a pinch-hit specialist for the Chicago Cubs last season. He has since increased his launch angle significantly, from 8.1 degrees to 14.1 degrees, but La Stella displayed similar launch angles in seasons prior. He should theoretically see more fastballs by hitting in front of Trout, but La Stella didn't start batting leadoff until May.
"I can't explain it, and I'm not really going to search for the answers," Angels manager Brad Ausmus said. "I'll just stay out of the way."cheap nfl nike jerseys from china
La Stella will tell you that he's back to who he always was -- or, more accurately, who he always wanted to be. He spent his first five seasons molding himself for the role laid out for him and along the way lost sight of who he was.
It began with the Atlanta Braves in 2014. Dan Uggla, a pull-happy, power-hitting second baseman, was struggling badly. The Braves called La Stella up because they liked how consistently he reached base in the minor leagues. They wanted someone to set the table for the next guy and nothing more. La Stella complied.
"I gradually shifted my sights toward the left side of the field," he said, "and I started to lose the ability to pull the ball."
It continued in the Midwest on loaded Cubs teams. Through four seasons, La Stella made 32 percent of his plate appearances as a pinch hitter, never getting the opportunity to build any semblance of a rhythm. His at-bats were merely about survival, about not wasting strikes and using his hands and doing everything possible to reach base. It was, in La Stella's mind, a different skill set altogether.
"I wanted to be really good at pinch-hitting because I knew that was going to be my role," La Stella said. "After a while, I kind of forgot that I at one point planned to be a very different hitter."
