It takes a gifted leader to be able to negotiate with terrorists, coordinate with military dictators, manage the fates of millions of lives during a natural catastrophe and cultivate a deep understanding of today's changing geo-politics and what it means for people, businesses and governments. It takes a leader named Andrew MacLeod.
As an experienced Chairman and Board Director in the UK, US and Australia, he has fundamental insights into today's business trends. As a respected academic at King's College, Professor Andrew MacLeod has his finger on the proverbial pulse of everything happening in the world. He can speak with intimate knowledge on the interface between corporations, government and communities and unearth ways to solve large-scale challenges.
Leadership has taken Andrew to great heights. He's been a high-level humanitarian official with the International Committee of the Red Cross and helped the United Nations through wars and natural disasters, giving him a unique perspective, few can match. Predicting Brexit and the rise of Trump, he has exceptional intuition for discovering 'what's next'. He believes the change we are living through right now is the most fundamental time of human change since the fall of the Roman Empire. How will you lead your organisation through it? There's only one way to find out... follow the leader.

Andrew MacLeod came to Wollongong to speak for me at the Students 4 Students Leadership Conference. Andrew was very easy to deal with and was excellent in the follow up for the event. Andrew sat on a Q&A panel at my event, and was provocative and engaging on what he said. Following on from his talk, Andrew, spent a lot of time mingling with students and answering all of their questions. I have now collated the feedback about the Conference, and many people have listed him as their favourite speaker of the Conference. Andrew is definitely a speaker that I would look at getting back to speak and comes recommended in the highest possible terms.

Kapamilya stars, led by Popstar Royalty Sarah Geronimo, treated over a thousand Kapamilyas to a fun-filled afternoon in the first ABS-CBN TVplus Fun Familya Day at the Vista Mall Taguig last Saturday (October 13).
The 'ASAP' mainstay electrified the stage as she sang her hit song "Tala" while Hashtag members Mccoy de Leon, Maru Delgado, Tom Doromal, and Jameson Blake got everyone off their seats with their sexy dance moves.
The crowd went wild as PBB Otso Batch Four Big Four ex- housemates, Kiara Takahasi, Wealand Ferrer, Argel Saycon, and Akie Poblete with PBB Otso Batch Three ex-housemates Ashley del Mundo and Tan Rocal performed a song and dance number in the event.
'Bidaman' finalists, Wize Estabillo, Ron Macapagal, Eris Gonzaga, and Team 'Yey' kids roused the audience with various games promoting the channels of ABS-CBN TVPlus, YeY, Cinemo, Movie Central, and Asianovela Channel.
Completing the treats for families were Jeepney TV which promoted its upcoming 7th year anniversary with games while Trabahanap had a mini job fair. ABS-CBN TVplus Go, on the other hand, did a raffle of TVplus Go merchandise with a performance of its Team GV Ronda.
The chance to give joy to families proved to be an exhilarating experience for Kiara, who reminisced her experience as a fan.
"Very honored and happy kasi iba yung feeling na nakakapagpasaya ng tao. I was just an audience before so alam ko yung nararamdaman na nanood ka tapos nakikita mo yung iniidolo mo sumayaw at nagpeperform sa harap mo at now na kami naman ang nagpapasaya so super happy," the "PBB Otso" second placer shared.

F1, Large 2" x 1½" grape, unusually sweet 1 oz fruit, compact plant for patio pot.
70 days.
15 seeds per packet.
Posted by Unknown on 19th Mar 2019
Moby Grapes are hard to find. Thought the cost was reasonable and shipping was speedy. They have already started growing.
Posted by Judy Angermeyer on 30th Sep 2016
I tried Moby Grape for the first time this year (2016) looking for a determinate for container growing. This fit the bill. Plus, the tomatoes' flavor and yield were 5 star. The fruits were large at the beginning of the season, gradually getting smaller, not detracting in the least from their palatability. The only con (costing a 5th star) was that much of the foliage withered mid-late season. Will definately grow these again! Loved them!

The Slit Out
"Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and not giving a damn"
-Orson Welles
-Orson Welles
Hi there!
It's getting so hot in Delhi day by day. It's so hard to go shoot the outfit in the heat and so I get up early morning but still if there is not Sun, there are people staring like fools. Haha it's really funny but now I have got used to it, I don't give a damn. I absolutely love what I do and it's the best thing that ever happened to me. I was always into fashion and modelling but never took it up professionally. But now I am doing what I love and never have I been happier.
My today's post is all about this gorgeous outfit I got from this amazing store, Pink Candy Closet. How I love their name! It's so adorable. I got this navy blue gown from them with a high slit on one side. The gown has sequin patchwork on the waist and shoulder. There are three strings at the back that diagonally attach to the gown from one shoulder. The gown has a good padding and it fits really well. Mostly in this material the body shape and inners are clearly visible but if you wear dark color and take one size bigger then it looks much better.
I think this gown is perfect for cocktail parties and dinners. I recently attended a launch party and wore this. It looked absolutely perfect and got highly appreciated. It's a very comfortable outfit and I was happily running around in it everywhere. I styled this outfit with my black heels from Catwalk. These are my most favorite pair of heels. These were the first ever pair of heels that I bought during graduation with the money I saved. I love the black elastic bands around them that gives in a very unique look. I am wearing minimal makeup with bold red lips. I am wearing my favorite lipstick from Mac, Ruby Woo. Many of you girls ask me to let you know what lipsticks shades I wear so from now on I'll mention in all my blog posts.
I styled this outfit with the amazing accessories I got from Love Shona's Collection.
I am wearing cuff rings on one hand and studded bracelets on the other. I have kept my neck bare and just wore lot of golden accessories on my hands. Check out the pictures below and don't forget to see the collection by Pink Candy Closet.

But with thousands upon thousands of excited fans also betting on each game, you should be aware of the strategies of free football picks to help beat the odds.
The easiest way to bet on football from the convenience of your home is to visit online bookmakers and open an account with them.

This experience of these handicaping experts helps them to gather all the data connected with each team, coach, player, climatic conditions, injuries, etc and enables them to transfer it right into a computer. is online sport betting illegal
This data is totally different for football games arranged by the nfl, ncaa and even fantasy football and the results that are generated too differ as each week passes by and teams get eliminated. As week 10 becomes week 13 and 14, the chances too change dramatically as betting becomes much more intense and also the stakes too could get higher as the final game of the season approaches.
In case your confidence levels aren't yet developed then you certainly should start betting by means of football pools to be able to acquire helpful hints before you become a pro. Additionally it is best to perform a thorough research exclusively by yourself so that you can compare your own findings with that from the free football picks offered. Defensive betting will increase your chances of winning but will limit your winnings. Again, instead of simply betting only on the result of any game you can make it more fulfilling and also increase avenues of winning more money by betting over/under or betting against the spread.
Stay with free football picks that help you increase your winnings and in addition help you to win most of your bets. While there is no perfect way of predicting the winners for each game, those handicapping experts that have their pulse on the game may come up with fairly accurate predictions that can help you to win most of your bets. Most bookmakers also help by offering exciting starting bonuses and discounts on initial bets.
The trick to flourishing from the betting game is to locate the ideal free football picks generated by true experts off and on the field.

Deuteronomy 8:1-3 BRG Bible (BRG)
8 All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers.
2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.
3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.

Prediction for Lazio – Napoli
More than 2.5 goals and Both Marcan @ 1.83
Match of the Serie A that faces to Lazio and Naples.
Bet on "Over 2.5 goals and Both Score".
Lazio :
La Lazio has 9 goals in favor and 4 goals against in the 4 matches he has played (an average of 3.25 goals per game). In 3 of his 4 matches played there were "More than 2.5 goals and both score," being the only red the first day before the Spal (a newly promoted defensive court).
In the beginning of season disputed the Supercopa of Italy (to a single party) before the Juventus of Turin, winning the encounter 2-3.
In general it takes 3 Over 2.5 consecutive clearings. He won 4-1 at Milan, won 2-3 against Vitesse in the Europa League and comes from winning this weekend 2-3 at Genoa.
The Naples has 15 goals in favor and 2 goals against (4.25 goals on average per game). 6 of these 15 goals in favor were against a newly promoted who is currently colista with 4 losses. If we skip those 6 goals, he averaged 3.67 goals per game.
In Champions eliminated in the previous to the Nice, winning 2-0 both parties and dominating them clearly. It comes from losing the last day of Champions League 2-1 against Shakhtar, a game that may have seen the problems of definition that may sometimes have Naples (usually creates many occasions but do not take advantage) and is defensively not a especially brilliant team (playing both the ball and being so offensive the mistakes are usually expensive).
In league, has marked in all its matches minimum 3 goals. Although the rivals were not even Lazio level (except maybe Atalanta, who did a great season and is playing the Europa League, but still played at home in Naples and this season has not started well in the league), their numbers are really positive for this bet, being the only problem that is not a team that fits many goals in Calcio.
Two teams with enough goal and a Naples that faces the first hard bone to gnaw in league. Surely the Naples try to dominate the game by possession, something that should not matter to the whole Lazio who, if he can press properly, can cause errors and get chances.
The only problem we can find is that the game, for some reason, has little rhythm (something that may be of interest to Lazio but is not easy to get before the Naples) or that the Lazio is not able to score goal, something that would surprise me because this season has not started badly in that aspect and the Naples is not the most brilliant team defensively (being as best defend with the ball).

| 9.1°C Belfast
Award-winning Northern Ireland poet Sinead Morrissey is to leave the province to take up a post at Newcastle University in England.
Ms Morrissey (44) was appointed Belfast's first Poet Laureate by then-Lord Mayor Mairtin O Muilleoir in July 2013.
She is currently Professor of Creative Writing in the Seamus Heaney Centre for Poetry at Queen's University, and has published five volumes of work.
In recent years Ms Morrissey has been richly garlanded with literary accolades and awards, including the TS Eliot prize in 2014, and the EM Forster award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
Damian Smyth, head of literature and drama at the Arts Council, paid tribute to her contribution to the literary and artistic life of the city.
"Sinead is in the top ranks of contemporary modern poets in English," he said.
"That was demonstrated clearly when she was awarded the TS Eliot prize just a couple of years ago."
Mr Smyth said Dr Morrissey had been very successful in her role as Poet Laureate of Belfast
"Although she's leaving the role and the city, her influence will remain.
"After all, she is only going to live in Newcastle, which is just a short flight away.
"You've only to look at the work of Seamus Heaney and Paul Muldoon to see that people never really leave.
"Sinead's influence is both profound and widespread - and our strong links will remain," he said.
Morrissey was born in the former Carleton House hospital in Portadown in 1972.
She lived on the now-demolished Rathmore estate in Craigavon until she was six, later moving to live on the loughside campus of the Ulster Polytechnic at Jordanstown, where her father Mike was a lecturer.
She wrote her first proper poem at primary school. The Beggar was about a cat, and was dedicated to her teacher Mr Ormonde, who was off work at the time.
He sent it to the Belfast Telegraph - where, to his delight, it was published.
It's understood Professor Morrissey will take up her new appointment at Newcastle in February.
She is currently on leave from QUB, and could not be reached for comment last night.

No one can forget the soft-hearted boyfriend Parshya and the dashing girlfriend Archie. And even Langdya and Salya steal your hearts being the strong pillars of friendship.
Sairat was excellent at every point of time
It was a different love story of a rich girl poor boy. And that presented the differences of caste and class wisely. A rich upper caste girl falls in love with a poor lower caste boy. They elope and face the harsh realities of life. They sail through it and start thinking it is going to be a happy ending now. But they become the victim of honour killing practices in the society.
And the harsh but realistic climax leaves an ache in the audience's heart.
Sairat proved itself as a milestone of Marathi Cinema. It is the first Marathi movie to be watched by the people nationally. This is the first Marathi movie to enter 100 crores club and ended up earning Rupees 110 crores worldwide.
The songs like Zingaat and Yaad Lagla literally made people mad for this movie and its tracks. Director Nagraj Manjule presented a masterpiece based on the class and caste discrimination issues in India. It is said that Manjule made this movie based on his own experiences and that is why he kept the shooting locations at his own village near Karmala, Solapur.
The leading actors Akash Thosar (Parshya) and Rinku Rajguru (Archie) became superstars overnight. They became a household name in Maharashtra. And everyone started knowing these newbies because both of them gave astonishing performances in their debut films.
This movie created a revolution in the Marathi Film Industry. And it was loved by the non-Maharashtrians too. The movie was remade in many languages including the Dhadak movie starring Janhavi Kapoor and Ishaan Khattar, but it couldn't get as much love and appreciation as Sairat had got. And Sairat the Original remained unbeatable.
Highlights of Sairat
- First Marathi Movie To Enter 100 Crores Club
- Sairat was selected for 66th Berlin International Film Festival and it got a standing ovation.
- Rinku Rajguru received the National Film Award as Special Jury Award at the 63rd National Film Awards
- After the huge success of Sairat movie, the actors and the entire staff received some extra perks out of the profit
- It is the first Indian movie that recorded its music in Hollywood's Sony Scoring Stage, California
- Due to the massive success of Sairat, it was remade in Punjabi (Channa Mereya), Kannada (Manasu Malligey) and Hindi (Dhadak)
- Sairat grabbed 11 awards in total at the Filmfare Marathi Awards 2017 including the Best Film award.
Sairat was released on 29th April 2016. Completed 3 years today but we still can't forget this movie that had great actors, brilliant story and chartbuster songs like zingaat and yaad lagla. The craze is still the same as it was initially.
The movie was a wild love story that was loved by the classes and the masses, by the Marathis and the Non-Marathis too. The movie that has set new records, the movie that has set higher expectations from the regional movies.
We are sure, this movie is never going to get faded away from the viewers' minds and hearts. It is going to be the evergreen Marathi classic for sure.

Here's a post that we put up every couple of months . We post it because this blog is picking up readers at an amazing pace. We are now read in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, plus EIGHTY-SEVEN countries around the world! Precisely because we get new readers so quickly, I like to fill them in on what Texas is all about, so they'll have an idea of why we write the things we do on Three States Plus One. Newer readers, enjoy this post and the link to the Texas Primer. You'll tank me later. :)
primer about Texas that has some basic information that the newer readers might find useful. It's good stuff and I believe that many of you from around the globe who have struggled and fought in order to live in a country free of tyranny and governmental control over your daily lives, will find the story of Texas an inspirational one, not unlike your own.
Texas is one of the most recognizable places on Earth, if not for the sheer size of the place, then definitely for its unique profile. Almost anyone can look at a map and find Texas once they know what it looks like and the Lone Star flag is equally recognizable as a symbol of Texas by people from around the world. Many people unfamiliar with modern Texas still think of oil wells and cowboys as the mainstays of Texan culture. And they would be right. Oil and cowboys are as much a part of Texas as the Alamo. But the Texas of today is much more than that. Many Fortune 500 and high tech companies call today's Texas home making Texas a new kind of frontier for the 21st Century.
I am not going to excerpt the Texas Primer for you here as I can't do it justice, so please take a few minutes to read it and you'll have a basic understanding of what is so special about this place called Texas.

Zuckerberg To Testify Before House Panel Next Week - Zero Hedge - 04-04-2018
Zuckerberg To Testify Before House Panel Next Week

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg will testify before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on April 11 - a week from Wednesday, according to a press release sent by Committee Chairman Greg Walden and Ranking Member Frank Pallone.

The hearing is slated to begin at 10 am ET.

"This hearing will be an important opportunity to shed light on critical consumer data privacy issues and help all Americans better understand what happens to their personal information online. We appreciate Mr. Zuckerberg's willingness to testify before the committee, and we look forward to him answering our questions on April 11th," Walden and Pallone said in a brief statement.

The Senate Judiciary Committee is still pursuing an interview with Zuckerberg. Ranking member Dianne Feinstein said late Tuesday that, after speaking with Facebook representatives, it was still undecided whether Zuck would testify on April 10 - the day Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley had set in an invitation to the Facebook CEO last week. Reports published last week said Zuckerberg had already agreed to testify before the Judiciary Committee.

Feinstein press secretary Ashley Schapitl told the San Francisco Chronicle Tuesday that a formal announcement could come soon.

Since a whistleblower from data analytics firm Cambridge Analytica told the New York Times and the Observer that the company surreptitiously leveraged data from 50 million Facebook users in its work on the Trump campaign.

The revelation sparked a broader conversation about Facebook's collecting and storing of user data for commercial purposes, which has forced Facebook to sever relationships with some third-party developers and offer users more transparency into what data is being collected. However, revelations that the company has collected deleted videos and other deleted content from some users (something Facebook blamed on a glitch) have helped hurt the company.

All of this is happening amid the backdrop of an FTC probe that could potentially bankrupt Facebook with a fine as high as $2 trillion. UK regulators are also carrying out their own investigation - though Zuckerberg snubbed Parliament by saying he would send a deputy to testify at a UK committee hearing in his stead.

When we have the courage to be authentic we give others permission to do the same.
Much has been said about being authentic, so this is nothing new in the spiritual community. However, given all the inspirational information out there regarding this idea of authentic living, do we simply agree with everything that has been said or written about the subject, or do we look within to see what resonates with us personally? Are we open to learning and exploring the possibilities? Are we willing to embrace our own truth and move past our fear of what others may perceive of us when we step out of the box of what people think is "normal"? Are we inspired enough to move beyond our own comfort levels to uncover and express more of what we can be? Do we know who we really are? What do we believe about ourselves? How does our being authentic affect those around us? What does being authentic even mean?
These are just some of the questions that can trigger us in defining our own authenticity as well as understanding what is authentic about human nature as a whole given our divine connection. Learning to live authentically awakens us to being more aware of how much we are influenced by our environment as well as by our soul. I believe that in the process, we learn to become more loving, compassionate, and understanding of ourselves and others. Being authentic is also where we begin to know what is right for us, and support those rights through the manner in which we respond to life rather than react to it. We also become honest with our feelings, and are more able to express them from a place of love with the utmost confidence. From my own experience, this is where we begin to allow ourselves to feel in the first place, rather than living in quiet desperation and denial. We will learn to become empowered to wisely create and direct our lives from an inner knowing rather than allowing life to just happen to us without clarity and purpose.
I recently gave a talk about the Power of Belief. It is at the very core of how we experience life. Our beliefs create our reality whether we are aware of what we believe or not…subconsciously or unconsciously. Our beliefs, which are made up of thoughts, create a mental atmosphere around us that vibrates as energy. This energy attracts into our lives that which we believe. We will attract the people, places, things, and circumstances that become part of our seeming reality.
We are encouraged then to get to know who we are in our own authenticity … what makes us "tick" so to speak. Doing so will allow us to live more in alignment with our true selves, because we will begin to recognize more profoundly what we do believe and question those beliefs that do not seem to be working for us any longer. Moving through this process will inspire us to create new beliefs about what we have come to understand is authentic about who we are. We will continue to emerge from the depths of our soul with a kind of renewed energy that encourages us to be more open to all the creative possibilities emanating from an immeasurable and unlimited Source. And remember, those new beliefs will change our vibration level thus attracting into our lives like-minded people who will support our desire to be authentic.
I felt called to this life-changing ministry in 1995 when my beautiful "Soul Sister" Kathryn gifted me with a beautiful book. The book, "Simple Abundance" by Sarah Ban Breathnach (http://amzn.to/1LngM2A) made continual reference to being authentic and allowing our soul to guide us. The word "authentic" began to resonate with me, before I fully understood the depth of the word, or why I felt there was something in it for me to look into. The truth is, I was supported by a most loving Universe when given the book in the first place by a then new friend, because I had made significant changes in my life in an effort to find myself. As for being guided by my soul, I have come to understand more fully what it is I am to do in this life … that is to learn to take full responsibility for it, how I have created it thus far, and allow myself to be open to the profound lessons and life-changing opportunities to grow, love, live, and share all that I can be in my authenticity. In essence, I am teaching what I myself need to learn.
I believe that the authentic journey leads us to the truest form of freedom. Throughout my own journey, I uncovered many surprises and aha moments that have freed me from past experiences, which has led me to create my life from a more intuitive place, following my bliss if you will. These moments have inspired me to move forward with even more conviction and fearless thinking. By the way, there is no right or wrong in anything we have experienced thus far. The decisions we made and the circumstances we encountered have simply been a part of our divine journey. Choices were made that emanated from a place of innocence, specifically, our subconscious mind. Everything happens for a reason, and there are no coincidences…some of which may be beyond our comprehension. We are encouraged then to be gentle with ourselves always, especially in the process of our awakening to the truth of who we are, and how we arrived at this point in our lives. And so, when we learn to listen to the urgings of our soul, the possibilities of our evolving authentic consciousness becomes even greater in manifesting amazing things beyond what we could ever imagine. So, do you have the courage to live authentically?
The more we learn to live from a place of authenticity, the more equipped we are to be a powerful force for positive change in the world. We are all an important and integral part in the evolving consciousness of our ever-changing world that we have chosen to call our home. Let us be mindful and aware of who we are, what we can be in our full potential, and how we can personally contribute and make a profound difference to our divine human family. Let us all live authentically on purpose.
Thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts with you.

Top 10 Movies (Man Up Edition)
It is very tough in todays busy technology rich world to let men be men. Im not talking about just grabbing some beers and watching football. I am talking about allowing men to Come Alive! It is necessary for men to unplug and let go of the day to day hustle a few times a week or month at least. There is a reason every boy wants to play army man or to look at sticks as swords or guns. It is in our DNA. Nobody taught me to like action. I was born with it. If God is a warrior (Exodus 15:3) and we are made in His image (Genesis 1:27) then that means we are warriors. One thing that helps me stir my heart is movies. I love movies. There are so many that help to stir my heart.
Here is my top 10
- Man on Fire
- Gladiator
- Armageddon
- The Island
- Rocky (1-4)
- Bloodsport
- Cinderella Man
- Rudy
- Over The Top
- Creed
*This was not written in order
*This was off the top of my head. If I answered this in a week it could be different
I know its hard to get away to the mountains or to go fishing but some time can be set aside each week to watch a movie that stirs you up. Most of the time I have for any movies is while I am doing cardio. I will prop my phone up on the treadmill and put on Netflix to a great movie. It helps the time go by but most importantly it helps keep my motivated, encouraged and focused.
Let me know what your favorites are and I can add them to my need to watch list.

With 13 minutes left in the game, Reynolds slotted the all important penalty goal to help Lions complete a one point victory.

Has Technology Made It Too Easy To Apply For Jobs?
"I've emailed 100's of resumes and applied to 100's of jobs online! I've had so many replies I can't keep up with them all!"
When was the last time you heard this complaint?
In reality there is typically little to no response to numerous electronic job applications!
Students, new grads, experienced workers, mature workers – so many people experiencing the same frustration of the futile online job application process!
Job hunters spend hours perfecting their resumes and cover letters and insist they've applied to jobs they feel they are perfectly suited for.
So what's the problem?
I can't help thinking back to the days before email, the internet, and online job applications…
I don't remember anyone ever claiming they'd applied to 100's of jobs! Job hunting was different back then. It was a "manual" process. You had to type out your resume and cover letter. If you were lucky your mom or a friend was your "spell checker". If you made any mistakes you had to retype your work. The "hard copy" had to be placed in an envelope with a stamp and sent by what is today referred to as "snail mail". You could photocopy your resume to produce multiple copies but cover letters had to be personalized and typed individually for each application. Mailing out 100's of letters to apply for jobs was for the most part unheard of.
Job ads were not as readily available either. Ads were typically found in newspapers, publications, or job boards. I'm referring to the kind you have to stick a thumb tack on or apply a staple to! It wasn't easy to find or apply to 100's of jobs in a short period of time.
Often job applications were filled in by hand. Job applications that were mailed required postage and you had to go to a mailbox or post office to mail them.
Because it wasn't easy to apply for jobs there were fewer applicants for advertised jobs and the pile of applications received was manageable by the reviewers.
Technology has changed the job hunting rules. Today there are many online job boards that can be viewed by anyone with internet access. Jobs can be applied to 24/7 from the comfort of your home, while sitting on the bus, or even while at work using your computer, mobile device, or smart phone. In most cases there's no charge to apply to online jobs and there's no limit to how many jobs you can apply to.
In other words it's become "easy" to apply to 100's of jobs within a short period of time – and if it's easy for me, it's easy for you, and easy for everyone else!
So if everyone is applying to 100's of jobs online what is the potential employer seeing?
My guess is "probably not YOUR resume or application"! If you had a "virtual" pile of 100's or 1000's of resumes to review with a job to fill in a short period of time how many resumes would you look at?
In all likelihood the recipient will review only as many applications as is required to fill the position with the most suitable candidate in the least amount of time.
So you've invested all this time polishing your resume and cover letter and if it even clears the software filters to reach the inbox of a human chances are it's never read. It just sits in cyberspace collecting virtual dust!
If a process isn't working, repeating it indefinitely won't change the outcome.
Maybe it's time for another approach!
The goal is to have a "human" review your resume and contact you for an interview. Common sense suggests you need to find "people" not computers to send your resume to.
The power of technology has made it easy to apply for jobs but difficult to obtain a job.
Utilize your human contacts to find the humans behind the computers. They're the ones with the real power!

As a running technique coach, a common question I'm asked is:
"what running shoes should I use?"
Thankfully, I work closely with a very knowledgeable and forward-thinking podiatrist here in London, named Ian Griffiths (@Sports_Pod).
He has created the following video to help runners make a more educated decision about this very complex subject.
Wet Foot Test & Stability Paradigm
Ian's first point is one I find myself reiterating all the time. There is a distinct lack of science to support the most widely advised and used methods of shoe selection: methods such as the wet foot test and picking differing levels of support/stability or motion control footwear based on this static indication of foot posture.
The biggest issue with this is that research has shown poor correlation between how an athlete's foot sits statically versus how it then moves dynamically during running and walking gait.
Interestingly – one characteristic of shoe fitting which HAS been linked to a reduction in injury frequency is comfort. Very simple, but very important!
What is 'Comfort' to You?
Ian then goes on to elaborate how certain key factors influence the levels of comfort a given individual runner will feel in a given shoe.
Factors such as:
- Stack Height / Cushioning
- 'Drop' or Pitch
- Width
…will all contribute to how a shoe (or selection of shoes) will feel on the run. I prefer a responsive feel under foot, and have limited ankle dorsiflexion – thus I run most of my milage in minimalist shoes with a 4mm drop (rather than zero-drop) such as the Saucony Kinvara. My partner prefers a little more cushioning and runs in the Asics Cumulus. We all differ greatly, and perceive comfort differently.
Running Technique: Form Before Footwear
Certain shoes can indeed help to facilitate a certain desired change in technique, and thus loading of specific tissues. However, shoe choice alone cannot dictate or 'fix' your running technique. Running technique should be individual specific, although there are a number of constants in terms of form that we want to see from all runners to help them run with 'good form'.
Here's a link to an online running technique course which covers many of these fundamental principals of good running form (50% Discount – Click Here).
As Ian nicely sums-up in this video. By improving your running form to a style optimal for your own body, you probably slightly increase your appropriate running footwear options. I've certainly found that to be true with my own running, and many of the athletes I work with.

Stress is everywhere around us, it is so much part of our day to day life that it cannot be completely excluded. However, there are various methods that we can use to minimize it – here are some tips that apply to people of all ages:
- Reduce the amount of stimulants – coffee, black tea, alcohol and nicotine all stimulate the nervous system. Many people have the illusion that having a cup of coffee or a glass of wine helps them unwind, but the truth is that all these substances make it more difficult for the brain to relax and to take a step back before making important decisions;
- Exercise regularly – physical activity is the best way to reduce stress. The chemicals released by the brain during exercising counter the effects of the chemicals released during stressful situations, so sweating on the treadmill or jumping that stress off in an aerobics class are great ways to unwind; Quality assisted living facilities in Denver offer a variety of fitness activities to keep aging seniors active.
- Get more sleep – stress usually comes with poor sleep quality. Try to eliminate any stimulation a couple of hours before sleep – turn off the TV and the computer and try to stay away from your phone and from sugary or energy-rich foods. These lifestyle changes might seem hard in the beginning, but the positive effects come almost instantaneously.

If St Ives Town were ever to appear on Mastermind, winning ugly would surely be their specialist subject.
The Saints are masters of grinding out results when not at their best in far from ideal conditions.
That was the case again yesterday at a boggy ProEdge Westwood Road as they edged to a 2-1 success against Kings Langley.
Manager Ricky Marheineke had billed this as a match his team could not afford to lose and that never looked a particularly likely scenario despite the visitors having plenty of possession.
A quickfire opener from Ben Seymour-Shove certainly helped for St Ives. He slammed in a low Josh Dawkin cross with the match still inside its opening minute.
There was a long wait for another goal, but provider turned scorer as Saints doubled their lead with 12 minutes to go.
It was also a rather fortunate strike as visiting goalkeeper Xavi Comas came out to block a Dawkin effort only to see the ball rebound against the St Ives man and roll into the net.
Dawkin had been sent clear by a flick from substitute Charlie De'Ath, who operated as a striker after being introduced in the second half and was only prevented from scoring by a smart Comas save.
De'Ath did find himself in his more familiar defensive surroundings in the final few minutes as Saints had to soak up pressure from a Kings Langley side who halved their arrears only a couple of minutes after they had been doubled.
Jack Waldren ghosted into the box to loop a header back over goalkeeper Tim Trebes and into the far corner of the net, but there were few other moments of alarm even though Saints were guilty of defending so deep that they may well have been advised to swap their studs for flippers and snorkels.
They did threaten another goal themselves on the break on a couple of occasions, but searing pace from substitute Morgan Penfold was unfortunately followed by a reluctance to shoot.
"The win takes us another step closer to where we want to be," said Marheineke, making reference to his long-standing 48-point target.
"We're on 40 now and a couple more wins will virtually get us to the tally we feel will keep us up.
"The performance might have lacked a bit of quality, but I can't fault the work ethic of the lads.
"The conditions dictated how we played to some extent. It wasn't a pitch to try to play football on.
"The main thing is coming out of it with the three points."
There was a post-match question from one local broadcaster concerning possible St Ives' interest in the play-offs.
It was quickly dismissed by Marheineke, although his team are now closer to the top five (14 points adrift) than the bottom four (16 points clear).
That in itself is a fine achievement for a club playing at this level for the first time.
Their journey continues at Stratford on Tuesday.

Couple say thanks after blaze rescue
PUBLISHED: 14:14 02 July 2001 | UPDATED: 10:18 03 March 2010
AN ELDERLY Ipswich couple thanked the fire fighters who rescued them from their burning home and said: "If they hadn't have come we would have been dead.
By Amanda Cresswell
AN elderly Ipswich couple thanked the
firefighters who rescued them from their burning home and said: "If they hadn't come, we would have been dead."
Raymond and Maria Miller, of Newton Road, were trapped in an upstairs bedroom as fire ripped through their living room early on Friday morning.
The terrified pair, both aged 78, shouted through an open window to get help as the fire roared downstairs. By chance, a passer-by heard their cries and
immediately dialled 999.
Crews fought the blaze while four of the firefighters went upstairs to rescue the couple.
Mr Miller, said: "It was really frightening. It was about 5am and my mouth was getting dry and I went to get some water to drink.
"But as soon as I opened the door I was sweating. I had never felt so much heat in all my life.
"The smoke was so thick that the fire must have been smouldering for some time.
"We had shut the bedroom door but the smoke was coming underneath it. The heat was unbearable and it was hard to breathe.
"If we had both been asleep it could have suffocated us. It was so scary because we couldn't get out of the place. I have never been so scared in all my life."
They opened the bedroom
window to get some air as they were unable to get out of the
"I was shouting," said Mrs Miller, "but because it was so early we didn't think people would hear because they would be in bed. Then a chap came past and made the call. I don't know who he was but we are very grateful to him." A neighbour made a second
emergency call.
The couple were taken to Ipswich Hospital suffering from smoke inhalation but have now fully recovered from their ordeal.
"We said afterwards we didn't get the chance to thank all those who came to our aid at the time," said Mrs Miller. "If wasn't for the passer-by or fire service we
wouldn't be here."
It was thought that the blaze was caused by a faulty electrical item which set fire to a chair. The couple didn't have a smoke alarm but are now getting one installed.
Sub officer Pat Davey, who is based at Princes Street fire station, had earlier stressed the importance of smoke alarms He said: "A smoke alarm would have given much earlier warning and they wouldn't have been trapped inside."

This cliff in Okinawa is one of the most famous sightseeing destinations in Japan. Unfortunately, it is also one of the nation's most popular places to commit suicide.
When a man named Boy and a group of his friends visited the cliff in 2007, they decided to take a video of the gorgeous view. Little did they know that they were about to capture something haunting that hasn't been explained to this day.
As the camera pans across the cliff and horizon, everything seems to be at ease. That is, until a man jumps from the cliff's edge into the treacherous waters below. No one else seems to notice him, and there were no reports of a suicide that day. Could they have caught the ghost of a past suicide victim?
12 seconds in, the video takes a terrifying turn as a man leaps from the cliff. The moment is later shown in slow motion. Is it an actual suicide, or a ghost reliving his death over and over again? You'll have to decide for yourself.

A Woman With a Camera Telling Your Story
"There is no greater power
on earth than story"
Libba Bray
My name is Emma and I'm a storyteller with a passion for cinema. For me, there's something quite amazing about experiencing and feeling a story and then retelling it in a beautiful, timeless and cinematic film.
Working as a journalist and filmmaker at the BBC for more than 20 years has taught me a really powerful lesson – no two stories are the same.
I draw on that knowledge and past experience, which also included being part of a Bafta Award-winning team, to ensure that each and every one of my clients has a wedding film unlike any other.
My films are about people places and their stories. As one of Europe's leading female wedding videographers, I am the chosen filmmaker for couples who don't just want their wedding day filmed but their story told.
Story Of Your Day is a multi-award winning and highly sought after destination wedding film company, based in Switzerland and with studios in the UK.
As Creative Director of Story Of Your Day I spearhead an expert team of filmmakers all sharing the same storytelling philosophy and style of filming.
Already a highly regarded wedding videographer within the industry, I'm also officially recognised by Canon and Sennheiser for my work and training of others in the industry. I am an Ambassador for 'Women Who Photo & Film' and 'Rise: Professional Female Photographers' and recently featured in the renowned US photographer publication, Rangefinder, as one of the main female influencers in the wedding film industry.
Story Of Your Day is also recommended by exclusive planners and luxury wedding industry suppliers throughout the world with my work appearing in Tatler, as well as on many wedding blogs, such as French Wedding Style, Magnolia Rouge and Style Me Pretty.
Perfectly located in the heart of Europe, Story Of Your Day works closely with many amazing venues… In Switzerland Suvretta House in St Moritz, The Grand Hotel Giessbach on Lake Brienz and the Chedi Andermatt all exclusively recommend us.
In France, Chateau St Julien, Chateau La Roche Courbon and the exquisite Chateau Chenonceux in the Loire Valley are among our favourite venues who frequently recommend Story Of Your Day.
While in Italy, Story Of Your Day is a valued supplier for Villa Antiche Mura on the Amalfi Coast.
And of course, we still have our favourites who recommend us in the UK too… Goldsborough Hall and Swinton Estate in Yorkshire, as well as Alnwick Castle in Northumbria.
I'm a slave to my business but I've never been happier and had so much freedom, I've travelled to fantastic destinations and met amazing people along the way.
For most of my working life I almost fulfilled my passion for storytelling working as a newsreader and video journalist at the BBC. But after twenty years I felt unfulfilled and a little 'hemmed in' and that's when Story Of Your Day was born.
I now have job which is also my passion and allows me to say something, make an impact and make a good living.
I'm also a wife, a mum of two fabulous boys and and a gorgeous hound, called Harry. We live in a Swiss ski resort, having moved here in 2016.
I recently made the commitment to film one 'Story For The Soul' or "Passion Project' each year, in order for me to give something back to a person, community or a good cause.
The first of these was the story of Frau Hodel, who, after thirty three years, was retiring from the village primary school where I live. I wanted to allow her to look back on her time with fond memories and a feeling of achievement. The film certainly made an impact on her and those she'd made a difference for in her long career.
We all have a story to tell. Our life … where we've come from … and how we arrived here IS a story. Now you've heard mine, I'd love to hear yours.
Due to the privacy of our clients, certain weddings and events are not available for viewing.

Having that perfect smile shown to people could possibly brighten their day. Having a smile flashed towards others could potentially lift their spirits up and it could even turn the most bitter and cranky person into the most happy individual in the world. You could even smile at a stranger, and in that, it would create a sense of dynamic between you two. Though, due to the constant pressures of having that perfect self be made known within you, then it could be quite troublesome for a few to show even a hint of a smirk on their faces.
If you are so apprehensive about smiling, then there are a variety of reasons why you may be so hesitant to flash that teeth of yours. A number of these reasons may include missing teeth, discolored or crooked teeth and various others that may detract people from seeing the true beauty of your smile. Lucky for you, there are a variety of ways in order to create that flawless million dollar smile in today's day and age.
The Smile on Celebrities
Celebrities, just like any other average person out there, have the possibility to be born into the world with imperfect teeth. Take for example, Tom Cruise. When he first started starring in some movies, his teeth were atrocious. But if you look at photos of him today, then you would see the great improvement that he has gained with his smile. Having such an achievement will take some time though. You could turn to professionals in handling this kind of a problem. One known reputable expert would be Davis Orthodontics.
What is Wrong with Having a Less than Perfect Smile?
To be honest, no smile is perfect, so you could really benefit eventually if you do a few patches to your smirk. Be mindful though that fixing a smile could come at a cost, so you better balance out your prospects well in this situation.
Having that less perfect smile could be quite embarrassing for most folks out there in the world. Even a few don't like to open their mouths, which could be difficult for them if they like to interact with a certain person or individual in that room. Having imperfect teeth may contribute to a person's low self-esteem, which could be detrimental to their social well-being in the modern age.
Having such a bad set of whites could be caused by you not cleaning your teeth properly which could invite gum diseases and decay from consuming your smile. For a fact, gum diseases could possibly lead to various other health issues like heart disease. So, it is smart of you to maybe start doing some fixings with your smile.
The Orthodontist's Cure
There are a variety of treatments in order to repair that imperfect smile of yours. People now have the option to have some orthodontic braces installed.

Detroit Red Wings' captain Henrik Zetterberg will miss the start of the season and his career could be over.
Zetterberg hasn't been able to train all summer due to a lingering back injury and he recently confirmed that he will miss training camp and the start of the upcoming campaign. [via Aftonbladet]
Zetterberg has been dealing with back issues since withdrawing from the Olympics back in 2014. He underwent surgery that spring but has only missed five games in the four seasons since.
The Swedish centre has three years left on his contract that carries a $6.083 cap-hit. With his entire season in question, the Red Wings are expected to place him on long-term injured reserve and get some salary cap relief.
Without Zetterberg, the Red Wings' centre depth looks bleak. Frans Nielsen figures to see a bump in playing time and Dylan Larkin will be leaned on heavily to carry the load offensively. Luke Glendening is their fourth line centre, which leaves Andreas Athanasiou and Darren Helm to fill out the final centre role. The injury could also open the door for Michael Rasmussen to make the team. Rasmussen had 59 points (31G / 28A) in 47 regular season games and added 33 points (16G / 17A) in 17 playoff games with the Tri-City Americans (WHL).
If Zetterberg's career is over, which it is too early to tell, he will finish with 337 goals and 623 assists (960 points) in 1,082 career regular season games. Zetterberg is also a two-time All-Star, one-time Stanley Cup winner and Conn Smythe Trophy winner.

If one thing has remained unachieveable in the cricketing career of Captain Virat Kohli, it is the Indian Premier League (IPL) title. In his seven years of captaincy now, the challengers remained challengers and never could be the winners. The 2019 season saw them finishing last among four teams yet again being over dependent on Ab-Kohli and lack of strong bowling attack.
It is time for the RCB to overhaul themselves completely, putting an end to a predictably disheartening pattern they come up with every year or be shown the door for a more competent side.
1.Change Captaincy
Yes, it might sound stupid or surprising for the RCB supporters but that is the way to go about it. In fact, changing Kohli as the captain might not be too bad an idea for the team has anyhow hit a dead end. Captaining for seven years at a stretch is not something small but since the captain hasn't been able to earn anything significant in this time (best performance was to make the final in 2016 while they made the last four only twice), a change can always be a refreshing step.
One of the biggest drawbacks for RCB has been the captain's tactical errors. Kohli kept on making changes in the team frequently, thereby giving the players very little time to settle and deliver.
Another poor season will certainly give rise to a voice against the ace batsman's captaincy but changing him beforehand can help him save his grace. Let Kohli do the batting bit and leave the top job to somebody who has a better reading of the T20 game. One must remember that Kohli also falters more in T20 cricket as the national captain compared to other formats. If he himself steps down, it will be the best thing to happen for the RCB.
2. Backing Local Players like Dubey and Devdutt Paddikal
One of the biggest reasons why the Challengers have done badly in this IPL is their over-reliance on a few players, mainly batters, and they include Kohli and AB de Villiers. The exit of Chris Gayle a season back has removed the third leg of their batting trio and every time it's either of the two arms that the RCB look up to for scoring.
The Royal Challengers is one such franchise in the IPL which is more obsessed with the big names. Earlier it was Gayle and now it is Kohli and ABD. The strange part is that the team attaches equally less importance to the home-grown talents. A number of Karnataka's own talents are flourishing for other sides. Devdutt Paddikal didn't feature even in one game last season. In my view, RCB had quality local players like Milind Kumar, Himmat Singh but they don't give them chance to showcase their abilities. They should learn from Mumbai Indians on how to nurture the local talents.
RCB drops young talents from their team frequently and that never allows either the players or the team to settle. The franchise goes on losing games with little improvement because the core of the team is always being disturbed.
3. Having a fixed opening Batsmen
We saw RCB opting for too many opening combinations, hoping that one or the other will deliver. Kohli himself opened with wicketkeeper-batsman Parthiv Patel while Moeen Ali and Shimron Hetmyer also chipped in as openers in other games.
RCB should bring Shai Hope in the auction and make him open with Virat. They should release Southee, Coulter Nile, Colin De Grandhomme to free up overseas quota.
A lot of successful teams in the IPL have set openers who have their roles defined but not so much in the RCB, especially after the exit of Chris Gayle. In fact, Kohli their best batsman himself prefers to bat at No.3 which is also his spot in the Indian limited-overs team. Despite the lack of a stable batter to take up that role, he has had to move up the order, he might have got the runs but it still leaves the middle order vulnerable.
On the same front, they backed Hetmyer for the first four games and then he was dropped for the next nine, ultimately in the final game of the season, he got a go and made it count with a match-winning half century. A better understanding of talent and its utilization can certainly bring about a change in fortunes.
4. Recruiting quality Pacers
Players like Dale Steyn do not really add value to a T20 side now. There is no doubt about their talents but it is fitness that has kept him on the sidelines. Withdrawal of ageing players mid-way into the tournament doesn't help the team's cause, especially when it is left wanting in the bowling department.
They must buy Pat Cummins and Mustafizur/Mitchell Starc to bolster their bowling attack. It will surely create a huge impact on other bowler's mentality too.
5. Picking best overseas Combination
They never play proper overseas Combination in any match. Either they go with one less bowler or one more batsman. They must have balanced overseas combination with 2 batsmen, 1 allrounder and a bowler.
Colin de Grandhomme has been with the team for a while without a significant impact while Heinrich Klassen, Hetmyer and Tim Southee remained largely unutilised in the RCB team. Only de Villiers and Marcus Stoinis got to play a meaty role for which again showed that the management wasn't too convinced about picking the right overseas players over a long period.
It is important for a team with the name and the eyes following it to deliver or perish. If the Royal Challengers Bangalore cannot get the results it promises better relegate the team and bring in a new eight franchise.

FIJI, September 20, 2019 (Pragyata by Anhad Jakhmola): Fiji or Republic of Fiji is an island nation situated near Australia and is considered one of the richest countries in the South Pacific Ocean. It is part of the Commonwealth of Nations. Fiji is home to diverse and multi-religious communities. The population is split primarily between two main ethnic groups: Indigenous Fijians (Melanesians) constitute approximately 57%, and Indo-Fijians constitute 38%. Most Indo-Fijians practice Hinduism, while the majority of indigenous Fijians follow Christianity. The largest Christian denomination in Fiji is the Methodists. The Methodist Church is supported by the majority of the country's leaders and remains influential in the ethnic Fijian community, particularly in rural areas. Other ethnic communities include the Chinese, Rothmans, and other Pacific Islanders.
So, a brief understanding of history will show you that the problem Indo-Fijians face, especially Hindus, as the main target is down to colonial circumstances and religious clashes. From the beginning, Indo-Fijians have been viewed as "outsiders" by ethnic Fijians and for reasons spanning from politics, economics, and gradually, religious, it's no surprise that Christianity took the lead against Hinduism. Most ethnic Fijians are Protestants and monotheist cultures will more or less face-off against a polytheist culture without thinking twice.
Hindu American Foundation in a report states that, "Fiji has improved its condition of differential treatment towards ethnic Fijians and the current administration has enacted many policies to curb private groups from trying to promote Christian beliefs and remove legislative measures that favoured ethnic Fijians in government as well as academic areas."
