Cosmetic Dentistry
The goal of cosmetic (esthetic) dentistry is to improve the appearance of your teeth and smile. It includes bleaching, bonding, veneers and crowns.
Bleaching is a simple method of whitening teeth. It can be done in the office or at home using materials supplied by our office. We are currently using Colgate Platinum home bleaching system, one of only three systems to be approved by the ADA as safe and effective. The system consists of a custom made bleaching tray which is worn 1 to 3 times a day for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. It usually takes 2 to 3 weeks to achieve the desired results. Bleaching is often used in conjunction with bonding or veneers to deal with more severe stains.
The term bonding usually is used to refer to the direct application of a composite resin material to the front surface of a tooth in the dental office. Bonding can be used to restore teeth that are chipped, cracked, misaligned, discolored or a combination of these conditions. The composite resin is a putty like material which can be shaped and molded on the front of the tooth and then hardened using a bright light. It can usually be completed in one visit, though more complicated cases may require several visits.
Porcelain veneers are thin ceramic shells which are bonded onto the front surface of teeth similar to the way false fingernails are applied. Veneer is much more durable than is composite bonding (above), and can be used in all of the same situations in which bonding is used. Porcelain veneers are made in a dental laboratory and usually take two appointments to complete.
Porcelain crowns can be used to restore severely broken down or heavily filled teeth which would not be good candidates for bonding or porcelain veneers. They may also be used to "straighten" more severely misaligned or rotated/crooked teeth with orthodontics. Anterior teeth which have undergone root canal therapy are probably better treated with a crown to help improve the strength as well as the appearance of the tooth. Crowns, like porcelain veneers, are made in a dental laboratory and take appointments to complete. More information on types of crowns can be found under Fillings and Crowns.

Sell Cds Online With Secret Software And Make Thousands
By: Vincent
To combat this problem most musicians are turning to a secret piece of software that was mainly created for internet marketers that allows the average musician a way to contact anyone in any industry who can benefit from buying their music. Imagine having a way to contact every video game company within the USA, Canada, UK and Australia via email, postcard or voice broadcasting and finding out if they are accepting music for their games or maybe you are trying to contact DJ's to get them to add you music to their playlist. That's the power of using this software. The best use musicians get out of this software is by creating a website and contacting fans of their genre of music and sending them directly to their site and racking in massive cd sales with the click of a button.
To see how the software works just go to:
The cost is only a one time $397 and $19.95 a month to maintain the software. This gives you unlimited access to targeted people who you can sell your music to as well as have control over your marketing, instead of spending money on marketing techniques that do not work. This is the ultimate way of to sell cds online.

Reliable Bat Removal Ideas
The species is one that has got other forms of benefits which are associated with it in the lives of humans. The limitations that they bring about are also numerous in terms of outcomes which all in all go past the benefits which they have. They are associated with disturbance in the form of smell which they generate. Keeping the species away from the home premises is therefore one means that should be put into great consideration.
It is important to ensure that specialists do these jobs. Those who work on wildlife areas are therefore of high preferences in this type of operation.They are also highly effective because they have got mechanisms that ensure that the species do not come about again in any time sooner.
Trapping is one of those ways that is highly essential in terms of ensuring that the required demands is achieved. It is important to ensure that the various traps are placed in areas where that the species exist in large numbers. Drawing the species into a closer order that is inside the trap also helps in ensuring that all of them get into the place where they were required to be in.
Another effective way is that which a bunch of mesh works can be put around the specific region where the species are located. The particular means of operation also helps in ensuring that all the existing animals are kept off. The mesh work operation helps in providing a better basis for keeping away all the animal species that are in existence and not needed in the current location.
The current advancements also apply in terms of ensuring that this is achieved by all means.The wildlife agencies have got specific technological equipment that are set up to identify the region where the species exist. It creates a platform under which the particular animal species can still get an opportunity to leave and get on with existence.
The animals can also be handled carefully by the specialists and put into a specific object that is safe. The lives of the species are totally taken care of to ensure that none of them gets lost in the process. The better part of the system revolves around keeping the health of the specialist I a good condition without distortion.
A bat is an animal that is so harmful whenever it reacts against a sudden enemy that has gained access to their area of jurisdiction. They are prone to certain diseases which they can impose at any time to anybody who takes any form of action against them. It is important to ensure that the animals are treated with a lot of care in the process of relocating.

"When you write a book, you spend day after day scanning and identifying the trees. When you're done, you have to step back and look at the forest." – Steven King
Developing good proofreading skills is of great importance to anyone who writes for a living. Why? – Well, because mistakes in writing can lead to all sorts of different problems. They can cause misunderstandings, changes in meaning or intent that could eventually cost you or your client a lot of money.
In most cases, when you, for an example, send a cover letter with your resume, proofreading can be the determining factor if you will or won't get the job.
I know that this seems heavy, but it's the truth. Simple spelling and grammar mistakes are known to have a significant effect on how people perceive you and your work.
For example, if you publish a post with a lot of typos, best case scenario, people will think that you were in a hurry to finish your work and that you really didn't care if you wrote it correctly or not. They'll think you're sloppy or just plain ol' dumb, and we all know no living person on this planet wants to leave that kind of impression on their current or potential clients/employers.
I don't know about you, but to me, there's nothing more embarrassing than publishing a text with a ton of missing and misspelled words. It's the worst. I hate it when it happens.
Just imagine: You spend days and days working on a single piece of content, only to see it go down in flames due to a few stupid errors. The horror.
Although people tend to mistake editing for proofreading, and vice versa, the truth is – they're two completely different things.They require different skill sets:
Editing is the process of improving the language of the text in question. This may include grammar changes, restructuring of sentences, clarifying language and possibly moving content around or eliminating some altogether.
Proofreading is the final step in the publishing process and it's usually limited to correcting spelling, correcting errors like when you type 'form' and mean 'from' as well as looking for incorrect grammar and usage.
Proofreading seems like an easy job, but it's far more complicated than most people think it is.
The human mind is very complex. Although impressive in most ways, from time to time – it tends to fail us. That's why I always triple-check everything I write, and send my content to a couple of my colleagues to read it as well before I even consider clicking "publish".
I know that this might look weird to some of you, but, to be frank – I don't really trust my mind, nor my eyes.
As you probably already know, if you've read a couple of previous posts on this website, I've been in the content marketing game for quite a while now. Besides writing for loads of acclaimed websites, I have also been in charge of a lot of different respected and commercially successful content marketing teams. I deal with content writers every single day of my life. I have read, edited and reviewed an insane number of articles from all types of writers.
And you know what I have learned? – Never review your own work.
When people proofread and edit their own writing, they tend to read things as they think they should be, instead of how they actually wrote them.
It's a well-known fact that most writers tend to misread their own typos and other spelling and grammar mistakes. Apart from that, they tend to completely ignore even bigger problems, like odd word choices, moronic sentence structures, missed context, etc.
That's why this sort of thing requires an extra set of eyes.
Although I feel like a fraud for covering this topic, because I'm no stranger to writing mistakes, I have to say that I came along way from my "rookie" days. Due to the following tips and tricks, I've managed to significantly cut my mispronunciations and typos down to size and provide my readers with a lot better content:
Zoom Your Work Up To Size
I know that this might seem a bit moronic to some of you, but hey – whatever helps, right? Every time I finish writing a single piece of content in GDocs, I tend to select the whole thing and significantly increase the font size.
Why? – Well, the bigger the words, the smaller the chances that I'll miss a certain error in my writing. Sure, this tends to mess up your text formating, but it still does the job, so put it into consideration.
Trust No Word
As I already wrote above, I don't trust my eyes, nor my mind, so it's quite logical for me to say that I don't trust my words either.
Before submitting a certain piece of content, I always take the time to read each word of text, each sentence, and each paragraph slowly and carefully. I leave nothing to chance. Sure, this tends to waste an insane amount of your time, but still – it's a highly effective strategy to prevent tiny, dumb mistakes rain on your parade.
Read Your Work Out Loud
Although quite annoying for everyone who's sitting next to you, this forces you to really think about what you're reading.
Reading stuff out loud increases the odds that you'll find a typo. This works quite well for me. Most of the typos and misplaced commas that somehow make their way into my texts would have been really difficult to spot, if I didn't do such a thing.
Distance Yourself
If at all possible, put some time between you and your manuscript. If you're able to gain a little objective distance, you'll be more likely to read with fresh eyes and less likely to read things that aren't there.
Have Your Computer Read To You
Adobe Reader features a "read aloud" tool that verbalizes your work, so you can hear it while you read along. You can purchase more sophisticated voices in other programs, but this free one has proven itself pretty good with me.
Never, I Repeat, NEVER Use Software For Proofreading
I have tried almost every proofreading program on this planet. None of them works. Even though most of my colleagues praise Grammarly, in my experience, I have to say I found it to be quite useless. Proofreader will never be replaced by software.
Proofreading can mean different things to different people, but to those who write for a living, it's a lot more than just picking out typos or misspelled words. It requires time and tremendous concentration. That's why it's of crucial importance that you figure out how to automatize the entire process.
Thank you for reading my latest blog posts. I hope it was helpful. If you have anything to ask or add on this subject, feel free to write your thoughts and questions in the comments section below, and I'll do everything in my power to reply ASAP.

If you've ever visited Thailand you've had the pleasure of tasting vegan Thai Red Curry. You've also had the sorrow of leaving its bold and delicious flavors behind when you board the plain to return home.
Luckily vegan Thai Red Curry is incredibly fast and easy to make. Just a few ingredients and a few minutes are needed to create this dish. The first bite of this delicious dish will transport you back East and conjure memories of your time in Thailand.
When I was in Thailand I wanted to make sure I took the opportunity to learn to cook some traditional dishes. So, I took a vegan cooking class in Chiang Mai at a vegetarian restaurant called Taste of Heaven.
It was one of the best decisions I made while in Thailand. I saw, tasted, and learned about traditional Thai ingredients. I learned about fast and simple cooking methods used, and I was able to spend time with two incredible locals who gave me insight about Thai cooking.
During that class I learned to make five different vegan versions of traditional Thai dishes. One of which was a vegan Thai Red Curry. The dish was fantastic and I've made it probably hundreds of times since taking that class.
Below is a slightly modified version of the dish I made in Chaing Mai Thailand.
Vegan Thai Red Curry Recipe
- 1 Tablespoon, Red Curry Paste
- 1 small Japanese Eggplant, cut in half and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- 4 oz Baby coconut tree, cut into 1/2 inch squares. You can substitute with sliced, canned bamboo shoots if coconut tree isn't available.
- 4 ounces firm tofu, cut into 1/2 inch squares
- 20 Sweet Thai Basil Leaves, washed and stems removed
- 10 Kaffir Lime Leaves, stems removed
- 1 Capsicum Pepper, cut in half and then 1/2 inch slices. You can substitute with a small red sweet chili or bell pepper.
- 150 ml Coconut Milk
- 400 ml water
- 1 Tablespoon Mushroom Powder or Soy Sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon Sugar
- 4 Tablespoons Corn/Canola Oil
- 1/2 mushroom or vegetable bouillon cube
- 1 1/2 cups cooked rice
- Fry curry paste and mushroom bouillon in cooking oil over medium high heat for one minute.
- Add Coconut milk and mix until everything melts together.
- Once the mixture starts to boil add the eggplant, baby coconut tree, capsicum, tofu and kaffir lime leaves. Let boil about 3-5 minutes. If the mixture gets too dry add more coconut milk and water. Add mushroom powder or soy sauce and sugar.
- Remove from the heat. Add sweet basil leaves, stir, and add to a bowl.
- Serve with rice.

The Nelson Tasman Land Development Manual (NTLDM) is an important document for delivering the shared goals for affordable and resilient asset management while balancing community expectations for our environment.
The Manual replaces the Tasman District Council Engineering Standards 2013 and the Nelson Land Development Manual 2010, and provides one set of standards for the Nelson and Tasman region.
Read the Nelson Tasman Land Development Manual (pdf, 31 MB).
You can download the manual two ways. By chapter below
Chapter 1-Introduction (pdf, 633 KB)
Chapter 2-Qualifications, Process and Information (pdf, 1.3 MB)
Chapter 3-Definitions (pdf, 426 KB)
Chapter 4-Transportation (pdf, 8.5 MB)
Chapter 5-Stormwater (pdf, 10 MB)

Chapter 8-Trenching and Reinstatement (pdf, 1.4 MB)
Chapter 9-Telecom and Lighting (pdf, 1.1 MB)
Chapter 10-Parks and Reserves (pdf, 1.3 MB
This manual includes some significant changes or additions to the previous Nelson Land Development Manual and Tasman's Engineering Standards. In particular, changes have been made to the way roads are designed and how we manage stormwater.
Nelson City Council and Tasman District Council encourage innovative and sustainable design and welcome alternative solutions to this Manual where this will achieve better results.
The NTLDM will be regularly reviewed and amended to reflect changes in land development practice and feedback from stakeholders.
A series of Practice Notes is associated with the NTLDM. They provide guidance on achieving best practice, and include:
Tasman District Council and Nelson City Council adopted New Zealand Vertical Datum (NZVD 2016) effective from 1 July 2017. This new datum will bring consistency in the way land height is measured across the region, and with the New Zealand Standards.
Previously Tasman District Council recorded elevation information in the LINZ Nelson 1955 vertical datum and the Tarakohe 1982 vertical datum for Golden Bay. Nelson City Council recorded height or elevation information in its own Nelson City Council vertical datum.
The NTLDM is intended to provide consistent minimum standards and guidance for network assets that Council will accept as part of its network, and activities affecting them including maintenance and operations.
The aim is to achieve the right balance between durable, cost effective, environmentally sustainable and fit-for-purpose infrastructure for our communities.
The Manual has been developed in consultation with a range of stakeholders including key staff from both councils, a steering group including Councillors and external advisers, and with input from surveyors, developers, consultants, network utility owners, walking/cycling groups, industry training organisations, suppliers and contractors.

Lady Elenore Taniford is a distant cousin to the ruling member of House Taniford. Only daughter to Lord Davil and Lady Vy, she is expected to one day take over in the running of the lands entrusted to her mother, the Barony of Freiston. A little odd by some rights, her parents have kept her close to home for much of her life and only reluctantly have they allowed her to venture further to see to duties and appearances of the family and House.
Immediate Family
Lady Vy - Mother
Lord Davil - Father
Lord Jurin - Oldest Brother.
Lord Keric - Middle brother.
Physical Features
Trusses of brown hair so dark that they are nearly black hang loose and aid to frame the smoothly sculpted features of the young woman. Dark brown eyes look out upon the world about her with the quiet study and occasional wonderment. While she is not what one would call a stunning beauty, she does have a pleasant look about her and moves with an elegant gracefulness that gives her a bit of an ethereal air.
She wears a dress of a deep green color with embroidered accents in silver along her sleeves and the edge of her skirt. The dress does appear to be finely tailored, fitting perfectly to the lithe form of the young woman. Flowing effortlessly over her subtle curves to the silver belt that hangs at a slightly jaunty angle at her hips. The skirts of the dress flow loosely from there to a point jut an inch or so above the ground. A simple silver necklace with an opal teardrop shaped pendant is worn with a few silver rings upon her fingers. In addition, there is the occasional glint of silver upon her left wrist.

There seems to be one point of agreement: EVERYONE says he or she is sick of the campaign. Well just about everyone. Television outlets have certainly enjoyed the gazillion dollars they've made from the ads, and the jump in viewers attracted to the months and months of political intrigue. For the rest, Election Day arrives just in the nick of time. The story is getting old.
Sorry peeps. It's not over next Tuesday. To borrow the cliche, that is just the end of the beginning. Assuming our results have been counted and we know who won, a big assumption, to be sure, November 5th and maybe the 6th will be the most critical days.
That's when the new President-elect will need to hit the ground running. It will be essential for him to make some announcement so bold, and so popular, that the national morale gets a quick and lasting boost.
Actually, I was pondering what that might be. Without any insider knowledge, my daydreaming concocted a scenario that is in the realm of pure speculation. To me, though, it's plausible. So hear me out: Assuming that Barack Obama becomes the "Chosen One" for real, I would not be surprised if his very first announcement is that he's nominating as Treasury Secretary Warren Buffett.
That's right. Warren Buffett. Think about it: The man is more popular than God. Probably richer. If he wanted, he could probably make the United States a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, which has been run a helluva lot better than the country has.
All kidding aside, let's not overlook the timing of his biography's recent release. Is it just a coincidence that the disclosures about Buffett's less-than-traditional romantic life are now public, rendered uncontroversial because they're diminished as"old news"?
As I said, this is wild speculation and nothing else, but Warren Buffett has become a hero, in a plain-spoken, Omaha kind of way.. Whether Buffett joins the new government or not, Obama will need to establish in a hurry that his administration will be one that can begin to recover the country's lost trust.
We are caught up in a national malaise. It's imperative we recognize that it's justified. Only then can we summon the will to stop the slide and honestly address the flawed policies that have propelled us downward.
That's where we'll need leadership that is bold and methodical at the same time. Ideas will need to be thought out and properly explained. Unless we recapture a spirit of cooperation, the election and all the talk of change will have been a waste of time.
If we were hoping to catch a breath after the election, let's forget about it. There's no time for that. Our new leaders will have to establish immediately they don't represent more of the same.. We can't even have more of the similar. Neither of the candidates has really addressed the magnitude of what's ahead. Each has offered faux "solutions" that really nibble around the edges.
It's an open question whether we will be willing to abandon obsolete dogmas and do the hard work necessary to create a climate for creative policy. It will take a President who can rally us all. Whether it's Obama or McCain who is leading our parade we will find out in a big hurry whether it's a march forward or a final retreat.

(RNS) — Berkeley's Graduate Theological Union, a multifaith consortium of research centers and seminaries, has selected the first non-Christian president in its history.
Daniel Lehmann, an Orthodox rabbi and the president of Hebrew College in Newton Centre, Mass., was picked to lead the Northern California union that offers graduate and doctoral degree programs for students interested in Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist and Hindu traditions.
Lehmann will succeed Riess Potterveld, an ordained United Church of Christ minister, who is retiring after five years as president.
For Lehmann, 56, it will be the first time in his career that he will lead a non-Jewish institution. But he said he is passionate about multifaith learning.
"The opportunity to lead an institution that's at the cutting edge of interreligious scholarship and to help grow it and help expand its impact is both a privilege and a blessing for me," he said.
Lehmann is chairman of the board of a similar but more modest consortium of theological schools in the Boston area. The Boston Theological Institute includes nine theological schools and seminaries. Students can take courses in each. Lehmann was instrumental in getting his own Hebrew College to join.
The college, which has about 220 graduate students, plus a rabbinical and cantorial school, also partners with Boston University's School of Theology to publish the online Journal of Interreligious Studies and a blog called State of Formation.
But the chance to lead GTU, with its multifaith partners, was irresistible.
GTU consists of eight member schools, five academic centers and five affiliates. Those include Baptist, Episcopal, Lutheran, Presbyterian, United Church of Christ, Catholic and Unitarian Universalist seminaries, in addition to a host of research centers. It has 280 students in its master's and Ph.D. tracks and more than 500 students studying for ordination in its various seminaries.
Lehmann is not the first Jew to lead a nonsectarian religious institution. Laurie Zoloth, also an Orthodox Jew, served for nearly a year as dean at the prestigious University of Chicago Divinity School before stepping down earlier this month.
But Lehmann's ascension to the GTU presidency comes at a time when many academic institutions are more serious about religious diversity.
Founded in 1962, at a time when Protestant and Catholic tensions were still high, GTU is now seeing its interreligious vision come more fully into fruition, Potterveld said.
"In my five years, we've stepped on the gas pedal or the accelerator because my feeling was, 'If you're going to cast yourself as interreligious, you really need to have all these traditional groups present through faculty, library studies and students,'" Potterfeld said.
Since 1985, it has added centers studying Buddhist, Hindu, Jain, Muslim and Sikh traditions. It is now looking to establish a chair in Chinese religious studies.
"As that evolution has come, it's natural that you're open to the idea that leadership would come from any of these faith groups and that the person who comes has passion and vision about the interfaith journey," Potterveld said.
GTU's Center for Jewish Studies, one of the first non-Christian centers, was established in 1968.
Lehmann was educated at Yeshiva University in New York from his undergraduate days through to rabbinical school. He later founded Gann Academy, a coed Jewish high school in Waltham, Mass., that accepts students from all Jewish traditions.
He said he wanted to see GTU develop a global presence. Part of that will happen through digital learning and use of technology, he said, and part of it will happen by engaging with partners across the globe.
Lehmann said he was particularly excited to work with Muslims.
"There's really no other place like it, not in North America and not in the world in terms of bringing together those kinds of diverse institutions and combining their strengths into something incredibly distinctive," he said.

Our overall health in America is in a critical state. We tend to turn to medication and surgery as if we have no other choice. But why chiropractic? You may have heard or experienced pain relief or some type of physical therapy at your chiropractic office with great success. That's exactly what started my journey. But what we evaluate and take very seriously at IN8LIFE, is that our alignment of our spine controls the function of the nerve system. Your nerve system is 10% pain control and 90% function control. Meaning that your nerve system controls your body physiology for immune function, heart and lung function, stomach, GI system and the rest of our organs, glands and hormones. Not to mention the muscle and posture.
A healthy and aligned spine allows for optimal healing. This can improve asthma, as it did my wife who suffered for 23 years of constant medication. She has been asthma-free for 25 years. Improve acid reflux, sinus and allergies, heart function, crohn's or diverticulitis, constipation, or any organ symptom.
If the spine and posture are under stress, this creates a stress response. This can elevate blood pressure, tighten muscles, raise cholesterol, cause poor sleep, lower energy, create headaches and pain, lower immune response and increase chronic sickness, increase acid in stomach, decrease digestion, cortisol goes up and belly fat goes up, and all along you continue to crave fats and sugar.
So, we take very serious the alignment of your spine along with lifestyle choices to maximize your health. Our exam process is very precise with digital technology and motion x-rays along with the old fashion sit down with the doctor to really discover what is best for you!

It was an end of an era in the property world this week. Christopher Hamer stepped down as the Property Ombudsman on Monday, a role he's held for the last nine years.
With this in mind, I thought it would be a good time to look at how much has changed since Hamer took on the position in the December of 2006. As well as tipping my hat to what the man himself has achieved in that time.
The Property Ombudsman scheme is a free, impartial and independent service, the main purpose of which is effectively to act as a mediator, a middle man, in unresolved disputes between consumers and property agents. They are, in short, there to resolve the unresolved.
Government-approved, the TPO is there to provide redress, not regulation. As it says on the website, "The Ombudsman is not a regulator and does not have the authority to take regulatory or legal action against an agent, impose fines or dictate the way agents conduct their business."
The scheme has now been going since 1990 and is growing in strength year by year.
When Hamer first joined, the scheme had a membership of 2708 member agencies and 7666 offices. At the time, this accounted for 64% of the 12,000 branch offices in the UK and 73% of the 10,600 branch offices in England and Wales.
By 2010 the overall number of TPO offices had increased to just over 19,000. In 2012 it was up again to just over 23,000. 2014's annual report showed that the number of agents who are part of the scheme has now risen to 33,319.
The number of cases resolved has also steadily risen during Hamer's time in charge. In 2009, for example, 1,052 cases were resolved. By 2013 this had leapt by 29% to 2,135 cases resolved, while in 2014 it went up again to 2,511 cases resolved.
Of course, this can partly be explained by the fact that more complaints have been made as the years have gone by, with the TPO dealing with more cases. But the way cases are resolved has also clearly become more efficient, streamlined and effective.
Another of the TPO's major achievements in the last few years has been the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013. Following great pressure from the TPO Board and Council for all residential letting agents to join a redress scheme, the government passed the above legislation.
As of October 1 2014, all letting and management companies in England must be members of an approved redress scheme. The TPO has its own approved redress scheme, which is now home to many UK agents. Practice what they preach and all that.
The same year also saw a substantial increase in membership for the TPO. It's now estimated that over 95% of all sales offices and 85% of all lettings offices are members of or registered with the scheme, a fairly significant increase even since 2006/7.
It's also interesting to see how TPO has embraced social media in the last few years. They've only been on Twitter since January 2012, but they've witnessed their account accrue 13,500 followers in that time. Social media is, of course, a great way for an institution like the TPO to distribute information, tips and latest news to consumers and agents alike.
Bill McClintock is also standing down as Board Chairman of TPO on January 1 2016. He's been with the TPO since 2003 and Chairman since 2004.
Good luck to both Christopher and Bill in their new pursuits. And good luck to Katrine Sporle, who now takes over as the new Property Ombudsman.
In other news, I've seen quite a few agent websites recently that simply have way too many "call to actions". In marketing speak, a call to action (CTA) is defined as an instruction to the audience to provoke an immediate response.
When you arrive at the homepage of a website, your eyes should be drawn to this CTA. Instead, with some of the sites I've seen recently, your eyes are taken all over the place and visitors – potential vendors and landlords among them – just won't know where to look.
"Call to actions" are great, but they need to be focused. Crisp, clean, directed at the target market – in the case of an agent that is vendor/landlords rather than buyers/tenants. You don't want potential vendors/landlords to have to think too much when they come to your website; you want to do the thinking for them. There is even a book on this very thing called Don't Make Me Think!
What you want is to direct them immediately to your CTA, whether that is an online valuation tool or something else. Potential missed opportunity if not.
I also had a quick conversation with a couple of my colleagues this week, both of whom work on our ValPal tool. We all agreed that fear of change might be preventing agents – agents that are crying out for vendors and landlords – from taking risks on anything new and innovative. Even when we offer a free trial, some remain reticent. I've mentioned it before in previous blogs, resistance to change is a natural human reaction. We tend to like sticking with the status quo as much as possible.
But, as Einstein once said, the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results, so why not take a risk? Or follow Richard Branson's mantra of Screw it, Let's Do It. He's not done too badly for himself, has he?
It seems like changing this perception, this fear of the unknown, is going to be crucial in getting agents to embrace the new.
Until next time…

The 45th Tokyo Motor Show is about to begin late in October this year and will showcase some of the best Japanese vehicles available on the market.
While there will be a variety of European vehicles at the show, the Japanese exhibits should remain the stand-out exhibits.
In preparation for its centenary in 2020, Suzuki has developed a range of new compact concept cars and a sport's saloon concept as well as limited edition models of the WRX STi and BRZ.
Meanwhile, Mazda should be set to launch a new version of the RX-8 sequel at the show. The RX-Vision was first showcased in the 2015 Motor Show. The Mazda stand will also include the Product Concept with Sky-Activ technology and the new Mazda CX-8 production car.
Honda has unveiled a sketch of its Sports EV Concept ahead of its full showing at Tokyo this month. The sketch reveals a sports car body shape alongside a fully electric powertrain coupled with Honda's AI technology.
Mitsubishi is set to show off its all-electric SUV concept called the e-Evolution.
Nissan will also unveil its seventh-generation Z-car which is the successor to the 370Z. Production of the Z-car is expected to being in 2019. A newer version of the Nissan Leaf is also set to be revealed. The Nismo Leaf is set to be similar to the Ford Focus RS and should feature the same 235-mile range as the Leaf.
Subaru has teased some images of the VIZIV Performance concept car which is a saloon vehicle similar to the Impreza WRX STi. Subaru will also be unveiling a special edition S208 model of the WRX STi.
Unsurprisingly, Toyota has a large line up of vehicles that will be on show. Including the GR HV Sports concept which features a hybrid motor and targa roof. The TJ Cruiser van/SUV crossover will also be on show along with the i-RIDE concept – a small, fully electric 'mobility vehicle' making use of artificial intelligence to learn the habits of the driver.
Lexus will showcase its brand new LS luxury saloon. A hybrid edition has already been unveiled in Geneva in March, featuring a twin-turbo V6 petrol engine alongside two electric motors. There is also rumours of an unnamed concept car and the Japanese media speculates that there might be a seven-seater version of the RX SUV at the show as well.
The Tokyo Motor show is open to the public from October 28th to November 5th.

I was going to make my first post about "making the grown up decisions" but I think it'll be a long running thing throughout each post really, and I couldn't stop thinking about this one.
My son started school last week, and (luckily) for him it wasn't an emotional time at all. I cried. He didn't see me cry, but I did. I had my sunglasses on with the hopes of hiding it, but after he walked into his classroom in a line of tiny school-hatted pairs holding hands, my shoulders or breathing must have given me away. I was held by another mother in that way that you can only be hugged when someone knows exactly how you're feeling and what you need. It was very kind of her.
After a week and a half of school, I'm seeing the effect his amazing teacher (we'll call her Miss Jenkins) is having on him already. His vocabulary is improving. He's getting better at describing his day. At daycare I would ask him what he did that day, and he'd reply "played a lot". At kinder I was hoping because it had more structure that he'd have more to tell me about what he did that day, but no. He "played a lot" there too. He's telling me what classes he had now and who he played with, and what parts of his lunch were "uh-may-zing".
But my favourite part is hearing the little sayings he's repeating from his teacher. "Don't just say no, give it a go!" is one of them. It's one I think he is benefitting from already as he is a pretty hesitant kid unless he knows exactly what is expected of him and how to achieve it. He's not a "learn by doing" kid, he likes rules and structure. If I put a bunch of art supplies in front of him, he asks me what he's supposed to make. If I say "anything", he just stares at it until I give him ideas. Whether this is an ingrained part of his personality or just an age thing time will tell. His kinder report adorably described this as "a restrained enthusiasm".
One of these sayings struck a chord immediately. I feel like a whole new method of communicating with my son has opened up, and a new way of treating communication with my family and friends in general. Hell, even self-care.
Him: "It fills my bucket when you say that"
Me: "Sorry? What's your bucket?"
Him: "When you say nice things to people it fills their bucket up, and Miss Jenkins says we should try and make sure people never have an empty bucket because it means they're really sad"
In a week and a half she's given my son the ability to communicate when he's sad (his bucket is empty) and needs some attention in a really clear and observable way. It's also helped when teaching him empathy ("we should feel sad for people with empty buckets and try and help them fill them"), and kindness ("do you want to be a bucket-filler or a bucket-emptier?") and when I'm exasperated and need some time alone I can communicate to him very easily the status of my bucket. I love it, and I love her.
The bucket is the perfect metaphor for self-care. Self-care is filling your own bucket periodically so you don't end up empty. This year I'm focusing on filling my bucket with emotional energy, so I can do all the things I want/need to do without it being ultimately bad for me.
I'm going to fill my own bucket once a day. Sure, having others fill it is nice, but I don't think it would be wise to rely on others to fill it. I'm also going to fill my loved ones buckets at least once a day, too. Taking it out of the abstract and into this specific metaphor could perhaps be considered oversimplification, but some of the best coping mechanisms and CBT strategies are the ones that look deceptively easy. They seem so simple. Which is why it's easy to pull them out when you need them immediately.
I feel calm about school, calm about his emotional maturity, and a bit calmer about my own, and I've thanked Miss Jenkins for giving us our buckets. It's been an unexpectedly tremendous present.
Try being a bucket-filler today, but start with your own.

Claims that a Jewish organization was excluded from an anti-racism committee in Ontario because of the group's views, are being disputed.
The United Jewish People's Order (UJPO) suggested that it was denied a place on the Ontario Anti-Racism Directorate's anti-Semitism subcommittee because of its stance on Israel, Palestinians and anti-Semitism.
UJPO says it was told that the committee on anti-Semitism was full. But its director went on to speculate that the real reason for its exclusion was because the government gave priority to "mainstream" Jewish organizations, which "dangerously conflate criticism of Israel's government and anti-Semitism."
"Equating the two has become a powerful device to silence alternative Jewish voices, which, in the long term, could negatively affect the crucial work of this committee," wrote UJPO executive director Rachel Epstein in a Nov. 28 article in NOW magazine.
After UJPO applied for subcommittee membership, the directorate wrote to the group, saying that the "minister's consultation group" and the sub-committee on anti-Semitism "have been established.… Should future opportunities arise, we look forward to exploring how we may work with you and your organization."
In an email to The CJN, Ontario Anti-Racism Directorate spokesperson Mashoka Maimona said narrowing the pool on the anti-Semitism subcommittee was "difficult, as Ontario is home to a variety of individuals and organizations with deep-seated interest and expertise in combating anti-Semitism."
Those selected were chosen "to ensure a representation of a wide and diverse range of personal, educational and professional experiences," Maimona continued.
The subcommittee has representatives from B'nai Brith Canada, Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre and the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs. It also includes human rights consultant Karen Mock, Len Rudner, formerly of the Canadian Jewish Congress, and Bernie Farber, former director of the Mosaic Institute.
Farber, one of two co-chairs of the subcommittee, said it was his understanding that the body had a full complement of individuals and organizations with frontline experience battling anti-Semitism.
"Not everybody who asked was appointed," said Farber. "You can't appoint everybody."
Farber said UJPO's membership never came up at subcommittee meetings.
In her article, Epstein wondered how the government body would count anti-Semitic hate crimes.
'All Jews do not unquestioningly support the policies and actions of the Israeli state.'
"Will the tally include campus and other groups that oppose the Israeli state's actions against Palestinians?" Epstein asked. "How will the committee differentiate between acts grounded in hatred of Jews and those grounded in criticisms of Israel's government? The two are not the same.
"All Jews do not unquestioningly support the policies and actions of the Israeli state," she went on. "The assumption that we do, ignores the many races, geographies, experiences and political viewpoints that exist among Jews."
She said her views on Israel and support for Palestinian rights make her "no less Jewish and no less vulnerable to anti-Semitism."
Epstein told The CJN that initially, the Ontario Anti-Racism Directorate seemed open to UJPO's membership on the anti-Semitism subcommittee.
"That openness turned into a chill. I can only presume that was because of what we stand for on Israel, Palestine and how critiquing Israel is equated with anti-Semitism," she said.
She said the Jewish community is "much more diverse" than the representation on the subcommittee.
UJPO – which describes itself as secular, non-partisan and "socialist-oriented" – was founded in the 1920s and has been closely identified with left-wing causes.
The Anti-Racism Directorate was established in February 2016 "to eliminate systemic racism in government policies, decisions and programs," according to a government website.
The government envisions a three-year "anti-racism strategic plan." Ontario passed its Anti-Racism Act on June 1.
The directorate is composed of four subcommittees studying hatred directed toward blacks, indigenous peoples, Muslims and Jews.

There is no way osteoarthritis can be prevented or averted, however, the progression of the medical condition can be prevented. Proper care and standard treatment procedure helps to minimise risk of osteoarthritis advancement.
Osteoarthritis is a life-long disease that is progressive in nature. There is no definite way to prevent osteoarthritis, but if you have the disease in the absence of proper care and treatment, it generally gets worse.
Read to know some tips on how to minimize your risk of developing the disease and how to prevent progression of the disease if you have symptoms of osteoarthritis.
Care for your joints
Exercise is important for people with osteoarthritis. You age and level of fitness should not be considered as a contradiction for exercises. Many people believe that exercise may probably worsen the pain and other symptoms. But regular exercises improve muscle strength, joint flexibility, your posture and your general fitness. Doing regular exercises for about 20 to 30 minutes on most days of the week is recommended. Avoid exercises which strain your joints such as running and weight training. Swimming and cycling, do not strain the joint; your doctor or physiotherapist can advise you regarding the exercises you can do.
Balance rest and activity
Take appropriate rest (about eight hours of sleep at night and if needed a nap in the afternoon). Avoid any exercise that causes stress on joint or joint pain which lasts for more than an hour after you finish exercising.
Adopt good posture
Try to maintain good posture at all times like avoid lifting heavy weights, avoid sitting on soft chairs and prefer use of firm mattress for sleeping. Avoid staying in the same position for a long time like if you have a desk job make sure that the chair you sit on is at the correct height, get up and walk every once in a while to stretch your joints.
Lose weight if you are overweight or obese
Being overweight or obese puts extra stress and strain on your damaged joints which can make the symptoms worse. Joints in the lower limbs, which are the weight bearing joints are particularly affected if you are overweight or obese. If you are overweight/ obese do exercises and dieting to lose weight to reach a healthy weight. You can consult a health professional for exercises and diet advice.

Word of mouth. Social proof. Referrals. Whatever you call it, customer opinions have always made a difference in growth and sales. Today, online reviews and social media discussions have multiplied the influence of past customers on future business.
With that in mind, here are some of the common questions I get asked about online reviews. This is a big piece of your marketing puzzle, so it's important to know what best practices will put you at the top of the pile.
What are the most popular online review websites?
If you have a brick & mortar location, you should play closest attention to:
- Google reviews (attached to your local My Business page)
- Yelp
- Facebook (attached to your Facebook business Page)
People can also leave public reviews on your online Yellowpages listing and the Better Business Bureau website. While these are less commonly used, they should not be ignored: these sites could pop up on an online search for your business, and one lone bad rating could have a big impact on a searcher's impression. Industry-specific review sites such as TripAdvisor for tourism and Angie's List for contractors should also be on your radar.
E-commerce and SaaS companies should also keep an eye on review platforms like these:
- G2crowd.com
- Capterra
- Softwareadvice.com
- Review systems integrated with selling platforms, such as Etsy or Amazon reviews
How much do people read and care about online reviews?
A LOT. Here are a few stats that show just how powerful online reviews are in today's buyer journey.
These figures indicate that reviews are important to the majority of consumers. They also show that more and more people look at online reviews each year. Clearly, this is not something we can afford to ignore
What do I want my business review page to look like?
Of course, we all want a review page FILLED with 5-star accounts from trustworthy people. That's easy enough to understand. But what else should you aim for on these profiles?
- Mostly positive reviews (but a few negatives are okay!). Contrary to popular belief, a few negative reviews in the mix can help legitimize the more positive reviews in the pile. Research by Revoo found that people are 68% more likely to trust a review page when they see both good and bad scores. According to their study, a few negative reviews accompanied by lots of raves was a trust-builder that boosted conversions.
- Caring responses from the business owner. When a business owner responds appropriately to positive and negative reviews alike, it makes a potential customer feel like that business will treat them right. Be sure not to get too defensive in the case of a negative review – explain a miscommunication and offer to make things right, but don't insult the reviewer in the process.
- Constantly updated reviews. People are far more likely to trust feedback submitted recently – in fact, 43% say a review must be written within a month to be considered relevant. Don't stop encouraging people to share their experiences just because you've collected a healthy number.
- Accurate information. Websites like Yelp, Google My Business, and Facebook allow you to claim and maintain a profile for your business. This not only allows you to respond to online reviews, but also gives you the ability to update information like your website, phone number, and hours of operation. If someone reads a great review of your business and wants to learn more, you should make it easy for them to do so!
Should I leave a review for my own business?
Heck. No. Your role as a business owner is to keep buyers happy, respond to their feedback, and to ensure contact information is up-to-date. Pretending to actually be one of your customers? Not a good call.
If you leave a review for your own business, you can lose more than trust – regulators have levied huge fines for companies posting misleading or "fake" reviews. You can also get dinged for having employees leave reviews without a disclaimer about their affiliation. For example, Bell was hit with a $1.25 million fine with after encouraging employees to leave positive reviews on its new app. Yikes!
How can I encourage customers to write positive reviews?
You know your customers love your business, but on popular review sites it's all crickets. What's the deal?
The first step is to ask. Specifically, ask nicely and personally. If a favourite cashier tells a regular customer that a review would mean a lot to him, that will be much more motivating than a "review us!" sign on the door. For this reason, it's a good idea to build asking for a review into your customer service process.
Making it easy for people to review you is also a good idea. You can do this by sending an email that links a happy customer directly to a review site. If this email has a personal touch, such as the person's first name and a signature from the business owner, all the better!
Can I offer incentives to encourage customer reviews?
A small gift in exchange for five stars seems innocent enough, right? Wrong.
Giving away free items, exclusive offers, or other kickbacks exchange for a positive review is seen as a truth in advertising violation. You can offer a thank-you to a customer who has reviewed your business, but offering freebies in exchange for reviews – especially if you specify that preferred content of the reviews – can turn people off and lead to possible legal trouble down the road.
Do online reviews influence SEO?
You betcha! Search engines are in the business of giving people the best results for their search queries. If you search for "pizza delivery near me," a search engine will respond with listings for pizza places that they think are relevant to your interests. That means they'll find places close by, places that are open, and – you guessed it – places that other customers recommend.
In fact, since Google knows how important reviews are to potential customers, they even show the star rating right on the results page. How silly would their search engine look if it recommended a restaurant with 3 stars over one with 5 stars? Unless one is significantly closer to the searcher, it's not gonna happen. SEO is one of the major reasons why reviews are so important to businesses today.
What should I do about a negative review?
The first thing you should do is respond to the review using the following formula:
- Apologize that the person had a bad experience or felt unsatisfied
- Clarify any misconceptions you think a reader may have from looking at the review. Avoid being overly defensive or blaming the reviewer.
- Offer to make it right
- If there is still an outstanding issue to resolve, take it offline
For example, for someone who complains about a long wait the following response would be appropriate:
"Hello [name], thank you for trying our restaurant on Friday night. I'm sorry to hear you felt rushed with your meal. We do try our best to seat people as quickly as possible, though wait times can sometimes reach 20-30 minutes on busy nights. The best way to secure your seat is by calling or using our online form to make a reservation. Please feel free to mention my name in your next reservation, and I will personally make sure you get the best seat in the house. Thanks again for this feedback and for giving us a try. We hope you will try our restaurant again in the future! If you have any additional questions or concerns about your experience, please feel free to contact me directly through our website."
It's absolutely possible to set the record straight without coming off as petty or rude. You should always make sure the reader knows both sides of the story while still showing that you care about the customer's experience.
If a customer is particularly disgruntled, the best practice is to take the conversation offline and do your best to turn their experience into a positive one. In many cases, customers will remove defamatory reviews once their issue is resolved.
Why your online presence matters
So many businesses have grown thanks to the power of word of mouth.
With online reviews and social media, "word of mouth" can do even MORE for your business than ever before. And when you've collected some killer reviews on your Facebook page, chances are you'll want to spread that word.
That's where Needls comes in.
With Needls, you can get the word out about your business with optimized Facebook ads. Combined with great content and positive reviews, the traffic from your ads can be a game-changer in your business. Click here to get started today!
