When Nick Mason made comments in Italy about heading out to small venues, to play early Pink Floyd songs, few took the remarks seriously. As unlikely as it seemed, Nick was entirely truthful and in the initial announcement a set of four shows in London were announced for his new band. Due to the critical success of those shows, held in small venues in Camden and Putney, a full European tour has been announced with this date one part of this.

Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets brings together some familiar names, all great musicians: joining Nick are Gary Kemp and Lee Harris on guitars, Guy Pratt on bass, and Dom Beken on keyboards. Kemp is best known for his work with Spandau Ballet, Harris as having played guitar with The Blockheads (Ian Dury's band), Pratt needs no introduction, and Beken is principally known for his work with The Orb, and Transit Kings (with Pratt). The band will be playing early Pink Floyd songs.

This is a unique opportunity to experience Pink Floyd's celebrated and significant early body of work played live including songs from albums 'The Piper At The Gates of Dawn' and 'A Saucerful Of Secrets'.

The regular sale of tickets started on FRIDAY, MAY 25th at 9am (UK time), via Eventim.de

From Hamburg to Stuttgart - the band are now in the midst of their run of German shows, which are going down very well with the audiences in the country!

For this latest show on the tour, during his initial thanks and welcome to the audience, Nick said: "Well, welcome everybody, as I hope you're beginning to know, we are NOT the South Yorkshire Roger Waters, or the Danish David Gilmour, or anything else; we are Nick Mason's Saucerful Of Secrets. Thank you all very much for coming out tonight, and we hope you have as much fun as we intend to!"

The band's enjoyment and togetherness comes across clearly in the performance - it is a joy to hear the music performed like this, and it is definitely not a show to miss!

August’s most successful ad – Shopee

Article from:
Tue, 26/09/2017 - 02:00
Article Image

This month, Shopee is the brand that has achieved the greatest uplift in its Ad Awareness score (whether someone has seen its advert in the past two weeks) in Indonesia.

The e-retailer, which only launched in 2015, has taken Southeast Asia by storm through its pioneering approach to m-commerce. At the heart of its success has been its problem-solving attitude, pioneering innovations such as its so-called “Shopee Guarantee”, which aims to reassure consumers about the safety and security of online payments.

Shopee’s multi-platform approach to advertising, which last month included an expansive billboard promotion across Jakarta and a substantial range of discounts and free delivery deals, was leveraged to great effect in August. Its Ad Awareness score increased by +16 points in the first few weeks of August, from 32 at the start of the month to a peak of 48 on 23 August. It ended the month on a score of 41, +9 ahead of where it was one month earlier.

As well as raising the brand’s profile, the campaign appears to have had a significant impact on consumers’ purchasing intentions. Shopee’s Purchase Consideration score jumped from 17 at the start of the month to a high of 30 over the course of the month, tracking the increase in Ad Awareness.
Shopee’s marketing efforts appear to have been particularly successful at whetting women’s appetites, with Purchase Consideration scores for women peaking at 43 on 21 August. This is more than double the Purchase Consideration score for men, which was at 19 on the same day.

Shopee has since launched its “Brutal September” campaign, which gives Shopee users discounts of up to 90% and free shipping across Indonesia for a wide range of electronic products. With so much to offer consumers in both price and convenience, its dream to become the “Alibaba of Southeast Asia” may yet come true.

Soonlee Lim, YouGov’s Head of Indonesia and Malaysia, comments, “August’s most successful ad demonstrates how a multi-platform approach can take marketing campaigns to new heights. Shopee has capitalized on this to great effect in its latest marketing campaign – as demonstrated by its BrandIndex scores in both Ad Awareness and Purchase Consideration. Such tangible success shows the potential for promotional campaigns to reach beyond their established market and attract new audiences in a relatively short space of time.”

Las Vegas Mayor Blasts ‘Total Insanity’ of Shutdown: ‘Being Closed Is Killing Us Already’

LAS VEGAS, NV - JANUARY 10: Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman and Derek Stevens at the announcement of Circa Hotel & Casino set open in downtown Las Vegas December 2020 at the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center on January 10, 2019. Credit: Damairs Carter/MediaPunch /IPX

Carolyn Goodman (I), mayor of Las Vegas, Nevada, on Wednesday blasted the mass shutdown resulting in the closures of nonessential businesses statewide, proclaiming that the actions have reached a point of “total insanity,” stressing that it is “killing” Las Vegas, and urging people to “remember the data.”

Goodman made the remarks at Wednesday’s city council meeting, which followed Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak (D) signaling that he does not have immediate plans to reopen portions of the state’s economy.

“This is truly an opportunity for having a bully pulpit as your mayor,” Goodman said, “and I am going to take advantage of that before we begin our public comment.”

“This shutdown has become one of total insanity,” she said, explaining that the virus is not going to suddenly disappear. Therefore, she said, society must figure out how to move forward amid its existence.

“It’s not going to be going away this month, next month, and much like the flu and other viruses that have impacted populations around the world, this virus, or a derivative there of, will be part of what we work through going forward,” she said.

She gave her condolences to those who have been affected by the virus but tried to put the crisis in greater perspective, noting that those whom have died as a result of the virus in Nevada “represent less than half of one percent” of the state’s population.

She said:

We are a state of 3.2 million people, and we’ll soon find out how that changes as we go through our census shortly. 2.3 of us live down here in Southern Nevada. Tragically, we have already lost to this virus 128 individuals in Nevada. [HHS reports 131] Many with complications attributed, in part, to COVID-19. Let me assure you that our sympathies and condolences to those who have lost loved ones. But let me tell you — with a population of 3.2 million living in Nevada, those whom we lost represent less than a half of one percent of our population, which has caused us to shut down the entire state and everything that makes Nevada unique.

Goodman said an estimated 900,000 have already lost their jobs, and 300,000 of those have already filed for unemployment.

“300,000 have filed for unemployment,” she emphasized.

“These are families that no longer have the ability to buy food for their children and other loved ones, pay their bills, pay their rent, pay their mortgage, pay their car payment, or enjoy the life that they had prior to this shutdown,” she continued.

That considered, Goodman said they “must open” the city and state:

“We cannot live going forward with the medical health industry telling us that this virus is going to be around longer than a month or two, maybe even a year,” she said. “We cannot keep our heads in the sand and think its going to go away.”

“We’re adults with brains who can know what to do, to wash our hands and take all precautions not to spread this disease. But we cannot put our head in the sand and think it’s going to go away,” she continued.

“From my perspective, I am asking: Open the city. Open Clark County. Open the state,” she said.

“For heaven’s sake, being closed is killing us already and killing Las Vegas, our industry, our convention and tourism business that we have all worked so hard to build. The longer we wait to do this, the more impossible it will become to recover,” she warned.

The mayor urged everyone to “remember the data,” reemphasizing that less than one half of one percent “tragically, have been lost” as a result of the virus.

“And the entire 3.2 million people have been brought to their knees,” she added.

The mayor’s call follows a movement bubbling across the country, as frustrated Americans begin to take to the streets to demonstrate their opposition to stringent stay-at-home orders and their respective governors refusing to signal the reopening of the economy. That movement was evident on Wednesday, as demonstrators flocked to Lansing, Michigan, protesting the shutdown and stringent stay-at-home orders issued by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D).

If you’re lucky enough to have enough of a budget to secure professional help for your marketing, it doesn’t mean you can pass the buck when things go wrong.

Of course, I’m not referring to those of you that employ a marketing agency to run that side of things for you. This post is aimed at those of you who use professional copywriters, web designers, and SEO consultants at the start and then decide you can continue with things on your own.

In the beginning, your marketing kicked butt

You started by gathering your dream team. You hired an exceptional copywriter, web designer, and SEO guru.

After many hours of research and soul searching you agreed on a design that worked for you, an SEO strategy, and content that Google and your customers loved.

Once up and running it was great. You maintained the copywriter for a while to create some blog posts for you. However, after a few months, you decided it was an unnecessary cost, and you could go it alone.

Twelve months on

Your climbing sales have stagnated.

Your rankings are slipping.

Your blog has died because you haven’t had time to write anything for several months.

Whom do you blame? Your original experts of course.

Is it their fault?

The buck stops with you

It would have been a different story if you had continued working with them.

Rather than creating a static website, your designer could have helped you evolve your site to keep pace with the changing demands of your customers.

By keeping your copywriter on retainer, she would have continued to provide you with high-quality blog posts that would have enhanced your SEO strategy and maintained that constant stream of traffic to your website that was converting into leads.

Talking of SEO, had you continued to work with your guru, you would have been able to adjust your strategy as needed to compete with all those other companies trying to rank for the same search terms as you.

Marketing professionals are worth their weight in gold

When you find the expert that’s right for you, hold on to them tight.

Even if you think you can get the same service cheaper, you can’t.

Professional fees deliver exceptional results. They are highly trained and experts in their field.

Anyone can claim to be an expert in SEO, a professional copywriter, or a leading web designer, but few can prove it.

By all means, take a look at their websites and the work they’ve done. However, also take the time to talk to them to get a feel for what they’re like.

Another word of warning, don’t just go by testimonials. A few years ago I had a ‘copywriting’ company steal my testimonials (of course, only those from my high profile clients) and attempt to pass them off as their own. Luckily for me, the thieves weren’t very bright and left in where the client had mentioned my name and my company name, which is how I found out.

Marketing evolves – it doesn’t just happen

Marketing is not static.

Your strategy has to evolve with your marketing place, your customers and your business.

Times change and if you don’t change with them – well, remember what happened to the dinosaurs?

If your marketing is failing, it’s down to you and the choices you are making. Unless you happen to be an expert writer, designer, coder, and SEO God, you can’t achieve a winning marketing strategy on your own.

You are only as good as the team around you, and you deserve to work with the best.

Sally Ormond is the professional freelance copywriter you’ve been searching for. Call her on +44 (0) 1449 779605 for a ‘get to know you’ chat.

The summer transfer market is in full swing and Championship clubs up and down the country are busy working to get deals over the line, with Bristol City no different.

Tuesday's biggest news surrounded Frank Lampard and his possible exit to take over at Chelsea with Derby giving the Stamford Bridge club permission to speak to their boss.

But while Pride Park officials contemplate the possibility of having to find a new manager, the rest of the Championship's clubs have been looking for new players.

Not least Leeds United, which is where we begin Tuesday's transfer rumour round-up.

Leeds United's Tyler Roberts celebrates after Jack Harrison's goal against Sheffield Wednesday

Leeds United look to re-sign City starlet

Leeds United have opened talks with Manchester City over the re-signing of starlet Jack Harrison, according to Leeds Live.

Harrison enjoyed a successful loan spell at Elland Road last season, scoring four times and assisting as many.

And according to the report, Leeds will now look to re-sign Harrison on a new loan deal for the upcoming season.

Manchester City aren't said to be keen on letting Harrison go back out on loan, but Bielsa and his recruitment staff are reportedly in talks over a new deal.

Aaron Mooy no closer to departing

Huddersfield Town's Aaron Mooy isn't going anywhere just yet.

Examiner Live reports that the Hornets have no deal in place to sign Mooy as things stand.

They say reports that Watford are close to signing the Australian midfielder are 'wide of the mark'.

Millwall deal for Ipswich stopper falls through

Millwall's proposed signing of Ipswich Town keeper Bartosz Bialkowski is 'off'.

The two clubs agreed a deal and personal terms were also agreed but BBC Suffolk report there was a complication in the medical process.

A long-standing knee injury has scuppered the deal, costing Bialkowski a return to the Championship.

Following the discovery of the injury, Millwall hoped to renegotiate the price on the deal but Ipswich owner Marcus Evans has responded by cancelling the deal altogether.

Famara Diedhiou of Bristol City scores a goal past Bartosz Bialkowski

Hull weigh up loan move for Everton youngster

Hull City are lining up a loan move for Everton winger Josh Bowler, according to Hull Live.

New Tigers boss Grant McCan is wasting no time in the transfer market and has already identified targets, according to the report.

Twenty-year-old winger Bowler is one of those targets and yet to make a senior appearance at Goodison Park, he could make a loan switch to the Kcom Stadium in a bid to get senior football.

Bowler signed for Everton from QPR two years ago and has been impressing in the Toffees under-23s setup.

Alternative Title: Jonathan Jay Pollard

Jonathan Pollard, in full Jonathan Jay Pollard, (born August 7, 1954, Galveston, Texas, U.S.), American civilian defense analyst who was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1987 for having sold classified information to Israel; he was paroled in 2015. His arrest caused acute embarrassment to Israel, whose officials were caught spying on a key ally. Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres apologized for Pollard’s activities and dissolved the scientific intelligence agency that had worked with him.

While Pollard was young, his family moved to South Bend, Indiana, where his father was a professor of microbiology at the University of Notre Dame. He graduated from Stanford University in 1976 with a degree in international relations. In 1977 he was rejected for a job with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) after an investigation uncovered his use of drugs and his penchant for telling stories (some of which gave the impression that he was an agent of Israeli intelligence), and he began graduate studies in law and diplomacy at Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts. In 1979, when he got a job at the Navy Field Operational Intelligence Office in Maryland, the CIA did not make its damaging report available to those investigating his fitness. After he was caught lying on the job in 1981, his security clearance was reduced, and he was told to seek psychiatric help, but his clearance was restored after he filed a grievance.

In 1984 he was assigned to the U.S. Navy’s Anti-Terrorist Alert Center. With access to all government documents that could help with his job, he contacted officials at the Israeli embassy who were connected to that country’s Bureau of Scientific Relations and began to supply them with boxes and suitcases full of information from the Departments of State, Defense, and Justice, the CIA, and the National Security Agency. On October 25, 1985, he was seen carrying a large bundle from his office to his wife’s car and was placed under surveillance. On November 21 he was arrested outside the Israeli embassy in Washington, where he and his wife had gone in hope of asylum; his wife was arrested the next day.

Pollard pleaded guilty to having conveyed classified information to a foreign state and cooperated with investigators. Nevertheless, in March 1987 he was given the maximum sentence of life in prison. His wife was sentenced to five years. At sentencing, Pollard claimed to have been motivated by “sectarianism,” though Israeli agents had agreed to pay him $30,000 each year for a period of 10 years and had already paid him more than $45,000. Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger wrote to the judge that Pollard had seriously compromised national security.

Pollard entered the federal prison system in Marion, Illinois, and then was transferred to Butler, North Carolina. His wife was released from a federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut, in 1989. In 1990 the couple divorced; Pollard remarried while in prison, and his first wife eventually moved to Israel. In 1996 the State of Israel granted Pollard citizenship. Numerous pro-Israel groups continued to call for Pollard’s release from prison, as did Israeli officials and government leaders. In 2015 he was granted parole, and on November 20 he was let out of prison. As part of the conditions for his release, Pollard was barred from leaving the United States for five years. After completing his parole, he moved to Israel in December 2020.

Criminal smashes into home with a brick • Brooklyn Paper

Criminal smashes into home with a brick

88th Precinct

Fort Greene–Clinton Hill

Some creep threw a brick through the front door of an Adelphi Street apartment and broke into the residence on Sept. 16.

The jerk smashed the projectile through the building near Willoughby Avenue at 7 am and entered the second floor of the 66-year-old resident’s home, according to a report.

Under the overpass

Police are searching for a punk who mugged a 61-year-old man under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway on Carlton Avenue on Sept. 13.

The victim told police he was strolling near Park Avenue at 10:30 pm when the brute came up from behind and punched him in the face, causing him to fall to the ground. The thief then snatched $25 from his pocket and fled, authorities said. The senior was taken to Brooklyn Hospital for treatment.

Late night lurker

A bruiser bashed a guy on the head with a metal object and stole his wallet and phone while he was walking home from a bar on Carlton Avenue on Sept. 12.

The man was near Willoughby Avenue at 4 am when he felt like someone was following him, cops said. He began crossing back and forth on Carlton Avenue when the pirate struck him on the back of the head and he fell to the ground, according to a report. The nogoodnik stood over him and demanded his property, taking his phone and leather wallet, worth $980, and fled, he told police.

Slash and dash

Cops are hunting for a goon who slashed a man for a second time in six years on the stairs of a Flatbush Avenue subway station on Sept. 12.

The victim told police he used the entrance near Fulton Street at 2:50 pm and noticed the tough at the bottom of the stairs exiting the station. He recognized him as the person who cut him in 2011, and the savage then took out a box cutter and slashed him on the right side of the face, according to a report. The ruffian snatched the victim’s phone and fled in a dollar van after dropping the phone onto the street, police said.

Clean freak

A shoplifter cut a worker’s finger while stealing a bottle of Dove body wash from a Fulton Street store on Sept. 17.

The pilferer snatched the $3.99 bottle and wounded the worker who was trying to keep him from leaving the Rockwell Place shop at 6:30 pm, authorities said.

Ho-ho-home run at MCU Park • Brooklyn Paper

Ho-ho-home run at MCU Park

All smiles: Kylie Palumbo and Isabella Scully enjoyed making crafts as they waited for Santa to arrive at a breakfast and meet-and-greet at MCU Park in Coney Island on Sunday.
Photo by Jon Farina

Call it a breakfast of champions.

Kids in Coney Island lived out their dreams on Sunday when they came face-to-face with Santa himself over flapjacks and coloring books at a fun-filled breakfast event at MCU Park. One Bensonhurst mom who trekked out to Coney for the breakfast said that her youngster was excited to finally see Santa in the flesh and to snap a photo with him to preserve the memory.

“She had a great photo with Santa,” said Ann Marie Palumbo of her 3-year-old daughter, Kylie. “She was excited because we’ve been hyping up seeing Santa for the past couple weeks. It was a lot of fun.”

The local International House of Pancackes provided pancakes for the hungry kiddies and their parents, and Cyclones mascot Sandy the Seagull also made sure to get some face-time with the visitors.

And when Santa wasn’t taking gift requests, he led a sing-a-long of his favorite Christmas carols — including “Jingle Bells” — and even grabbed a solo during “Santa Claus is Coming to Town.” And once he tired out his pipes, he had one of his elves read a favorite holiday classic, “The Night Before Christmas.”

A Bay Ridge mom said that her daughter enjoyed alternating between making homemade puppets and talking to Santa about her dreams for Christmas morning — and that Santa was everything she imagined he would be and more.

“She really enjoyed herself,” Teresa Mendez said of her 8-year-old daughter, Grace. “Santa was very friendly, very animated.”

Beltone Tinnitus Calmer APK Description

The Beltone Tinnitus Calmer™ app uses a combination of sounds and relaxing exercises that aim to distract your brain from focusing on tinnitus. Over time the brain learns to focus less on the tinnitus.

The app lets you manage your personal library of sound therapy files and allows you to create your own soundscapes from environmental sounds and small pieces of music. It will also track your usage, so you can see which sounds work best for you, and it contains some secondary stimuli like colors and exercises to help keep your mind occupied.

Just download it and listen to it as you normally listen to music from your smart phone. If you wear Beltone® wireless hearing aids, you can stream directly through them; the sound you stream will be adjusted to compensate for your hearing loss.

The app is a tool for anyone who has tinnitus. It should be used in combination with a tinnitus management programme or plan set up by a hearing care professional.

The broken puzzle this world is

What a world this is
With unfix-able hearts and unbreakable things
A perfect picture with happy smiles
The frame, a filter obscuring teary nights

Books being opened and books being closed
Each sentence a truth, keeping the lies afloat
Living only for that last breath
Life no gift but considered a prison cell

A place where the word 'fine' has lost meaning
Where broken worlds are sealed with invisible tears and empty smiles

The sky a mirror shattered above
The stars in splinters collapsing down
The cosmic chaos roaring inside
Mirroring the mess inside-out

Brokenness pictured as an irrevocable curse
The catastrophic loop impossible to reverse
Why not think of it as a chance
To piece back your life the way you want

The Nuiances Of Russian Bride

There may be an old saying «Like must marry like or there will be no happiness.» Nonetheless, many individuals in Russia ignore this wisdom, particularly ladies who look for love abroad. The plan which this servant devised testifies to his knowledge and maturity. In a single sense it appears to be a type of fleece” (cf. Judges 6:36-40) put out before the Lord. It might serve as a sign to the servant that this was the appropriate girl to methodology for his master as a spouse for Isaac. In reality, the servant sought to verify the woman relatively than God. Camels are identified to be very thirsty creatures, particularly after a protracted trek within the desert. To offer russian brides the servant a drink was one factor. To supply a drink to the lads after which to satisfy the thirst of the camels was a very totally different matter. The servant didn’t plan to ask the woman for water for his camels, only for himself. She may thus meet his request fairly simply, whereas sensing no obligation to meet the whole wants of the caravan. Any lady who was willing to go the additional mile” on this matter was one amongst unusual character.

Ask any man from any nation, would he need to fulfill A russian girl at minimum when of their entire life after which he will surely say sure. Ask him why, during which he’ll inform you that A russian girl is a secret he is ready to be taught in any respect. Some males who will likely my bride be more move that’s impudent and dream not only to satisfy, but to this point Russian beauties whereas making them their spouses. It’s exhausting to find one nationality that’s really as desirable and on need as Russian women.

As soon as you have accomplished these steps, you get entry to a vast database of astonishing Russian ladies taking a look at you from their avatars. Do not be shy and start speaking to the ones you like. Communication is a crucial step in your way of assembly Russian bride. First, it’s best to set up a friendly relationship with a lady you like and then after some time, you’ll be able to offer her to fulfill offline. Be braver — maybe she is your future.

Younger Russian women try for the perfection of not solely their beauty, but also the perfection of their character. They are interested in the education and study of the things that encompass them, they’re inquisitive about everything. The reputation of a Russian woman might be incomplete with no personal component, which includes concord in the household, the presence of hobbies, interests, and energetic citizenship.

By no means get bored. When you wish to get a Russian mail order bride, your days along with her might be stuffed with interactions. You will experience feelings and observe adventures. She’s very energetic, all the time desires to move, and adjustments the atmosphere round. Maybe, it is not that straightforward to help that fuse within her, however that’s extraordinarily attention-grabbing. The consequence will compensate all of the outlays chances are you’ll come across.

I wouldn’t sell my self to anyone for any value, and I positive am not desperate to be with any man, or lady for that matter. That is not love, that’s desperation and will 9 out of 10 occasions fail. Russian girls have a broad outlook, can support a conversation on any topic. They are smart and well-educated, many Individuals and Europeans acknowledge this.

At current, yow will discover your soulmate on-line. That is now not a secret. Worldwide relationship websites are designed to connect lonely hearts from everywhere in the planet. Maybe you’ve gotten heard about how fortunate those who choose Russian brides to be their wives. Russian mail order brides are searching for you. An informed, loving gentleman who is able to discover marital happiness.

A credit is the Russian Bride’s internal forex. You may use the varied paid features of the site by spending credit that you’ve bought. Quite a few girls from Russia get a novel place that is social that is also important. A lot of them have continually wished for going overseas, and marriage ceremony by having a foreigner seems to be a first faltering step on one of the simplest ways to their dream coming real.

It is one of the principal disadvantages. Slavic girls are always prepared to talk their mind. A woman like this can in all probability be an issue for you in case if you happen to’re not prepared to discuss issues and develop your self emotionally. Are you reserved? Nicely, brides from Russia usually are not your best option for you.

Different males are searching for different things in Russian women. Some folks like Russian openness, emotionality, sincerity and heat. Males like stunning, well-groomed, self-monitoring, effectively-mannered ladies in the role of spouse. They need their wives to be fairly intelligent and educated. Nearly each foreigner is glad about the fact that Russian wives actually need husbands.

I am unable to buy credits on Russian Brides. Men like the hospitality of Russian brides. No European or American girl will spend lots of time in the kitchen cooking one thing tasty, iron, wash, clear up and, considering all this as ladies’s duties” and not demanding something in return. Reached by telephone, Senator Donley stated he was appalled when he began receiving letters from Russian women wanting to become better acquainted.

Deciding On Convenient Plans In Russian Bride

Talks and promises don’t work for Russian ladies. They want their male partners to prove their intentions by actions. A Russian girl hates lie and disrespect. In contrast, she adores compliments. She would be the happiest girl in case you share your thoughts together with her or current flowers and small presents.

Under the motto #prideforeveryone, Google is a regular guest at the Gay pride parades all over the world. We get a real kick out of being able to help them choose the concept, decoration and entertainment of the Amsterdam Pride.

In 2016 the Google boat was a big hit with the interactive 'Kiss Cam' on board. As the live camera filmed a couple on the banks of the canal the Googlers cheered the 'Kissers' on! A year later, the spectators sang along from the edge of the canal with the 'Sailing Jukebox'. A live band played songs requested by the crowd: You Name It, We Play It.

Strong performance from MAN at IAA 2018

With numerous highlights in electromobility, automation and digital innovation as well as extraordinarily high demand for trucks, buses and vans, MAN Truck & Bus scored one of its best IAA Commercial Vehicles trade fair appearances of all time. As per the MAN motto, “Simplifying business”, making its customers’ jobs easier was the central maxim at the heart of it all.

The electric version of the MAN Lion's City and the new E18 gas engine premiered in the IAA

  • The electric version of the MAN Lion's City and the new E18 gas engine celebrated their premiere in the bus segment
  • The jury of International Truck of the Year awarded MAN the Truck Innovation Award 2018 for its autonomous construction site safety vehicle, aFAS
  • During the 10-day IAA, MAN celebrated record trade fair sales of more than 9,000 trucks, buses and vans in total

At IAA 2018, the MAN lion roared its loudest in the proverbial sense. With the world première of its fully electric vehicles, MAN is setting new standards in safety, ergonomics and environmentally friendly transportation. Also, among the highlights was the large eTGM, which is designed for 26 tons gross weight and has been used by nine Austrian companies from the Council for Sustainable Logistics since early September.

In the bus segment, MAN provided an outlook on fully electric passenger transport in cities with the Lion’s City, and presented its first E18 natural gas engine as a world first, a further step forward in MAN's decades of expertise in natural-gas-powered city buses.

With new MAN Digital Services, MAN also demonstrated how digital added value services for trucks and truck fleets will make fleet operators’ jobs easier in future, and presented its practical projects in the field of autonomous driving with its platooning collaboration with DB Schenker and the autonomous construction site safety vehicle, aFAS.

The latter, which was developed in collaboration with Hessen Mobil and other research and development partners, impressed the jury of International Truck of the Year so much with its increased safety for workers on motorway construction sites, that it was awarded the Truck Innovation Award, which was presented for the first time this year at IAA.

The standard products with the Büssing lion and the NEOPLAN logo too gave a strong trade fair performance thanks to their proven strength, robustness and uncompromising customer orientation.

In the course of the ten visitor days at IAA, a record-breaking 9,000 vehicle sales were booked – mostly combined with financing and after sales services from MAN’s extensive service portfolio.

The delegation from Malaysia who attended the IAA together with MAN Malaysia include representatives from LTS Logistics Sdn Bhd, Nittsu Transport Sdn Bhd, Seri Harmoni Sdn Bhd, SCB Premier Sdn Bhd and Taipanco Sdn Bhd. Apart from IAA, they also visited MAN’s factory in Germany and The MAN Group museum in Augsburg.

Jerome Wong, General Manager Sales & Marketing of MAN Truck and Bus (M) Sdn Bhd said, “We are excited to be able to showcase new developments and innovations to our customers at the IAA. Our aim will always be on making our customers’ job easier, true to the motto “Simplifying business, while offering them low total cost of ownership”.

6 Important Considerations before Investing in a Photography Franchise

Written by Guest Post

February 25, 2019

Nearly everyone we know has a habit of taking pictures in an effort to make memories last. Whether it’s through mobile phones, cameras, or other means, one can expect that in this day and age, the camera and other camera-hybrid devices are here to stay. People who are familiar with photography as a business or a hobby may find it profitable to invest in a photography franchise, especially if they have Franchise Know How.

Here are some factors you need to consider first:

1. Find out its Level of Demand

Determine whether or not your product or service has a specific demand from a definite market. Because photography has different aspects, certain franchises like events photography may be in demand but are only needed on a seasonal basis. Here are some facts you need to consider:

The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics projects the industry handling events will have a 44% growth from the year 2010 to 2020, which is the highest predicted growth among all industries.

According to a survey by EMI & Mosaic, 65% of brands correlate their sales to events and experiential programs.

A WebDAM survey reveals that event marketing strategy is considered the most effective for 67% of the B2B marketers.

When selecting a specific division in the industry, make sure to research whether or not there is a definite demand and take note of whether existing franchising opportunities are successful or not.

2. Understand the Franchise Model

Many photographers operate on a freelance basis, specifically those who are just starting out. Photographic portrait studios tend to take a large portion of the photography industry, so it’s important to consider a photography franchise that includes portraits in its packages.

There are different franchise models that cater to a specific audience range, including:

  1. Commercial photography for businesses and companies
  2. Portraiture for gifts and special occasions
  3. Special events photography for prenuptial shoots, weddings, anniversary parties, debuts, and other events
  4. Industrial photography for technical and building shots
  5. Sports photography for running or sports club activities
  6. Children’s photography for infants, toddlers, and others
  7. Entertainment photography for theatres, plays, and others

Choose which of these you want to focus on and study how it works.

3. Take Note of its Track Record

Just because a business is open to franchising doesn’t mean that it’s necessarily worth investing in. When deciding on which photography division you want to focus on, it helps to understand the company’s general reputation as a whole. This includes:

  • Their reputation as a business in their industry
  • How they are perceived by the general public
  • The effectiveness of their workforce
  • Their ability to establish a recognizable brand name
  • The expertise of their franchisers
  • Their online presence and how they brand themselves
  • The number of stores that are still in operation or has shut down over the years

All of these reflect on which aspect the business is willing to invest in more. Businesses that rely on their product and service and have made it a point to stand out from the crowd are those that are definitely worth considering.

4. Take Note of its Benefits

Because franchising doesn’t necessarily mean starting your own business, people who have invested an amount in an existing franchise can expect the company to provide them with certain services in exchange. For instance, do they:

  • Provide a support system to help make business operations more effective?
  • Offer you tools, equipment, and tips on how you can launch your business?
  • Tell you where the majority of your franchise fees go as well as provide a specific timeline on how you can earn you upfront costs back?
  • Invest in product development ventures to include more innovation in their business?

All of these should be presented in a clear and concise manner without leaving any room for doubt. If you’re a sole proprietor, you have to be able to effectively run the business without any help.

Additionally, you should also think of the long-term benefits. This includes reflecting on whether or not you can see this franchise growing and adapting to the ever-changing industry and whether or not there is still room to grow. While classic franchises are all well and good, those that are unable to adapt generally gets left behind until it eventually stays in the past.

5. Research its Competition

Much like freelance photographers, certain photography franchises often deal with competition especially if they specialize in a specific department. With the rise of mobile camera apps as well as drones to assist in providing better photo angles, the competition for getting the freshest and trendiest photo is more apparent than ever.

Before deciding on a franchise you wish to invest in, consider its competitions in the market. With so many options to choose from, it’s no surprise that even freelance individuals can provide services that your business cannot.

In fact, according to an article in Franchising.com, Americans are more than ever looking for photography services that can help them preserve precious memories for years to come. Whether it’s school events, team photos, and even portraits of pets, there are various franchises that you can choose depending on the niche you wish to serve.

For instance, Clix, a company with over 19 locations, is a portrait studio as well as a digital design center that allows franchisees multiple revenue streams so they never have to worry about making profit.

Another popular franchising option is TSS photography, a Duluth-based company that handles photography needs for various organizations including company events, church groups, and other community needs as a whole.

For users who like to operate home-based businesses, Grins2Go Studio is another franchising option that offers:

  • Custom framing services
  • Portrait studios
  • Viewing lounge
  • A retail selling center with an automated photo machine

All of these enables customers to have their photos taken and immediately get printed on site. This business model is perfect for home-based business owners because it comes with a van or trailer that allows entrepreneurs to work on-the-go as well as have a relatively affordable investment fee compared with others.

Last but not least are the animal photography franchises. Considering that there aren’t many of them around, people who are looking for a very unique take in scaling their photography business can work with Lil’ Pals Pet Photography, a company that aims to build the largest mobile pet photography franchise in the United States. With a professional studio and viewing area included in the package, budding entrepreneurs can now take Instagram-worthy photos of people’s pets and customers can proudly post pictures of their little fur babies online and display them in the comforts of their own home.

You can easily narrow your options by first visiting the businesses’ company websites and social media channels, reading up on the reviews by customers and other franchisees, and weighing in the pros and cons that each franchise body possesses. While these processes certainly take time, investing in a worthwhile franchise is no easy feat, so budding investors should definitely take all the necessary precautions they can get.

6. Look into its Training Opportunities

Another factor that you should consider before submitting your franchising fees is the amount and quality of training you should receive in return. In the photography business, this is no different. When deciding on which business to work with, it helps to consider how much the company is willing to invest in training for their franchisees. For instance, do they:

  • Provide you with on-site training on how to handle different camera models?
  • Offer tips and tricks on how to provide the best customer service?
  • Include tutorials on how you can use other accessories at work such as lighting and photo editing software?
  • Provide you with the necessary tips and guidelines on how to properly print and display certain photos to ensure it gets the best quality?

All of these can be answered through adequate research as well as reaching out other franchisees. If you’re still unsure whether or not a franchising business is able to answer your questions or concerns, you can also visit various online video tutorials provided by professional photographers as well as research on the latest photography trends and tricks. This way, you’re enhancing your own skills outside the resources that your franchisor provides.

With so many photo apps available as well as other well-established photography businesses, it pays to do a fair amount of research first before pooling in your resources to start your investment. Although time consuming, understanding the key factors that could affect your profit can better prepare you for the future.

Exxon's role in Guyana deepens as the government approves a massive $9 billion oil-drilling project

Luc Cohen/ReutersShips carrying supplies for an offshore oil platform in Guyana operated by Exxon
  • The small South American country of Guyana is home to immense offshore oil reserves that Exxon is planning to extract.
  • The company already has two drilling projects, and on Wednesday the government approved a third, further cementing the oil giant’s role in the country’s economic future.
  • Do you have information on Exxon in Guyana? Reach out to this reporter at [email protected] or on WhatsApp at +1-646-768-1657.

Exxon, the largest oil company in the West, strengthened its grip on Guyana’s oil riches on Wednesday as it received government approval for a third oil-drilling project, set to produce crude by 2024.

The small South American country is a critical piece of the oil giant’s future as it looks to extract oil cheaply. On Thursday, the price of crude was down about 38% relative to the start of the year, following a historic price collapse this past spring wrought by the coronavirus pandemic.

The new development, known as Payara, is Exxon’s third offshore drilling project in Guyana, a country set to transform into an oil powerhouse over the coming decades. The company estimates that the Stabroek block â€” where it operates through a partnership with Hess Corp and China’s CNOOC â€” is home to more than 8 billion barrels of recoverable oil.

Headquartered in Irving, Texas, Exxon plans to invest $US9 billion into Payara. One Exxon oil-drilling project in Guyana, known as Liza Phase 1, is currently producing oil, and another (Liza Phase 2) is on track to pump crude by early 2022, the company said.

Exxon’s controversial role in Guyana

Since Exxon first discovered oil in Guyana, back in 2015, the company’s presence has faced controversy and political turmoil.

In February, the global advocacy group Global Witness published a detailed report that alleged Exxon is taking advantage of the small country by striking an inequitable profit-sharing deal under suspect circumstances.

Then this summer, after a months-long vote recount, a new government stepped in that had criticised the Exxon deal as too generous, according to Reuters. Guyana’s new president, Irfaan Ali, promised that there’d be a comprehensive review of Exxon’s latest project â€” Payara.

On Wednesday, the government approved the project, an Exxon representative confirmed.

“ExxonMobil is committed to building on the capabilities from our Liza Phase 1 and 2 offshore oil developments as we sanction the Payara field and responsibly develop Guyana’s natural resources,” Liam Mallon, president of Exxon upstream oil and gas, said in a statement Wednesday. “We continue to prioritise high-potential prospects in close proximity to discoveries and maximise value for our partners, which includes the people of Guyana.”

The approval comes after Exxon reported steep financial losses and deployed various tactics to cut costs in response to the oil-price downturn.

As Business Insider previously reported, Exxon is weighing job cuts in high-cost regions. On Wednesday, the company said it was growing its Guyanese workforce with the Payara investment.

'Is Thunderbolt the same as USB-C?': What you need to know about Thunderbolt 3's high-speed connectivity, in relation to USB-C cables

Hollis Johnson/Business InsiderThunderbolt 3 ports on a Macbook Pro.
  • Thunderbolt 3 has adopted the USB-C format, so all Thunderbolt 3 ports are able to use ordinary USB-C cables.
  • Thunderbolt 3 has higher performance requirements than USB-C, so not all USB-C cables are of sufficiently high quality to work at Thunderbolt speeds.
  • USB-C does a lot of things other than Thunderbolt 3, including high-wattage charging using the Power Delivery (PD) standard.
  • Visit Business Insider’s Tech Reference library for more stories.

Thunderbolt is a connectivity standard that can transfer large amounts of power and data.

While older versions of Thunderbolt used the Mini DisplayPort connector, the latest version – Thunderbolt 3 – uses a USB-C-style connector.

So while all Thunderbolt 3 cables and ports use USB-C, not all USB-C connections are also Thunderbolt 3.

What you need to know about Thunderbolt connectivity

Because the USB-C connection is proving to be very popular, the latest version of the connectivity specification called Thunderbolt has formally adopted USB-C as its physical hardware. That means you can use any Thunderbolt 3 cable as a USB-C cable, and any Thunderbolt 3 port can use a USB-C cable.

Is Thunderbolt the same s USB C 1BelkinThunderbolt 3 devices can use any USB-C cable.

But USB-C cables vary. Thunderbolt 3 can transfer data up to 40 Gbps – you can get this speed with official Thunderbolt 3 cables or a good-quality USB-C cable that’s less than about 1.6 feet in length. USB-C cables longer than 1.6 feet may top out at 20 Gbps, depending on their quality.

USB-C isn’t automatically Thunderbolt 3

USB-C has become incredibly popular, found in many phones, tablets, laptops, and other mobile devices. For the most part, USB-C cables and ports are not designed to be Thunderbolt 3, and so they will work as regular USB-C connections unless otherwise indicated.

USB-C can do a lot of things, including delivering power and charging devices, transferring data, audio, and even video. Depending on your device, USB-C may transfer data at USB 2.0 speeds of 480 Mbps (though that’s uncommon) or 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps (much more common). When it comes to bandwidth, USB-C is designed to deliver up to 10 Gbps if it’s not a Thunderbolt port.

Is Thunderbolt the same s USB C 2AnkerUSB-C can also be used as a PD cable, which is a different specification than Thunderbolt 3.

But making this just a little more confusing, if the USB-C port is considered a Power Delivery (PD) connection, it can supply 100 watts of power, which is enough to run high-wattage devices like laptops.

6 Easy Tips for Taking Care of Your Dog on a Budget

marliese streefland 2l0CWTpcChI unsplash 5e3a8376

Your dog is your best friend, but if you are like many people, you've had to make some changes—both financially and otherwise—during this strange year. If you are having a tough time during the pandemic, your pet doesn't have to suffer. Here are six simple (and budget-friendly) things you can do to keep him healthy and happy.

Spay or Neuter

Though the actual surgery will cost money, the benefits of spaying or neutering your pet far outweigh the costs. Spaying your female dog can prevent serious health issues, such as uterine infections and reproductive tumors. Neutering a male dog can aid in preventing testicular cancer and other costly prostate problems. Why not be proactive now so you don't have to be reactive—and potentially spend lots of unexpected money and time—at a later date?

Deal Hunt and Use Coupons

Couponing doesn't just have to be a tactic used for groceries. Pet food companies and pet stores regularly offer deals on items that you are likely buying anyway. Ensure that you are on the mailing lists of every store that you frequent, and join their loyalty clubs if offered. If you typically do your shopping online, scour the internet for codes, such as a prebiothrive coupon code, and enjoy all of the items that keep your furry friend happy and healthy at a discount.

Give Them Plenty of Exercise

If you are lucky enough to have a safe, fenced-in area where your dog can run and burn some energy, be sure that they have access to this area as often as possible. Supervise them while they play, however, so they stay safe and don't get into anything that could be dangerous. If you have the time, take them on daily walks around the neighborhood. Walking doesn't cost a thing and you may find that getting outside of the house is just as beneficial for you as it is for your pet.

Don't Miss Vet Visits

Your vet likely has laid out a schedule for your pet's visits for regular checkups, shots, and perhaps even bloodwork. It is important not to stray from this schedule, or you could be looking at even pricier visits since everything that has been missed will have to be done all at once—or worse—undiagnosed illness or injury may be discovered. Even if your funds are a bit tight, do your best not to miss important visits to the vet. Risking your pet's health is just not worth it.

Consider Pet Insurance

If you are unable to start a "rainy day" fund for your pet's potential needs or illnesses down the road, the next best thing to do is invest in pet insurance. Like human health insurance, you will be expected to pay a monthly fee. Your deductible is based upon the amount of the monthly payment. Read all policies that you are considering closely and make sure that you understand what each policy does and does not cover. If your pet is older, beware of the "preexisting conditions" loophole, where insurance will not pay for anything that the pet has been treated for previously.

Make Treats at Home

If you get sticker shock when shopping for healthy treats for your pal, you are not alone. Many people have resorted to making treats for their dogs at home. It is simple to whip up a recipe from things that you already have in the kitchen, like peanut butter (without xylitol) and oats. Just be sure that whatever you make does not contain anything that is harmful or toxic to your pet. Foods like grapes, cherries, and avocado may be delicious and nutritious for humans, but they can be very dangerous for dogs to eat.

Caring for your pet on a budget does not have to induce stress. Use these simple tips and your best friend will live a life full of joy and excitement.

World’s Education Company supports and promotes Innovation in Education

Worlds Education Company 2c291384

COVID pushed the boundaries of education industry so much so that the industry-accepted the innovation way too soon.

Yes, the course of online education is a result of innovation in education and while the schools and universities that adopted online education in their curriculum the schools’ administrative authorities have reported dissatisfaction.

Reason: neither the teachers and other educators have been trained on the online technologies, nor the students – at least most of them – have access to high-speed internet.

Result: Lack of interest in the online education with most of the students dropping the year and waiting for the time when things would become a little normal.

As mentioned earlier the innovation came too soon and without any prior warning that numerous glitches were felt in the transition. Even the countries with the best Internet infrastructure faltered during this transition. The survey conducted by Hankyung.com – a South Korean company revealed that about 50% of the students were considering taking a break from the second semester in view of the lack of satisfaction the online classes gave them.

The worst affected are the engineering students – where online lectures are a mess. According to a recent survey carried out by a South Korean company regarding the state of the education in the country, it was found that about 33% of the engineering students were dissatisfied with their online classes and said that they were ineffective. Only a handful of the students – say about 5% of them revealed their satisfaction with the classes.

This is not all, even the teachers as well as professors were not happy with the shaping of online classes. About 42% of the engineering and science professors said they were dissatisfied with the performance of online classes, and only about 12% of them were satisfied.

While virtual reality might be cited as the future solution, the ground reality is that it will take a long-long time for both students and teachers to understand the mechanics of online learning.

Innovating education for the future generation is a good thought, however, this good thought will need loads of groundwork and in absence of that groundwork, there will always be glitches no matter what.

In order for a successful transition from offline classes to online learning, the first step should be educating leaders about the nuances of the online teaching technology, along with the availability of teaching tools that would ease the lecture delivery.

    An 880 Pound Cobra Made Of Cow Crap

    This is the epitome of magnificence.

    "I made it so the kids could play around and have some fun," said Mikhail Bopposov, a native of the Siberian republic of Yakutia. The amazing sculpture is on display in the small village of Yolba. Bopposov created it to mark the coming Chinese Year of the Snake, which begins on February 10th.

    Bopposov's 17 cows provide him with an ample supply of dung.
