In Part 1, we identified the four key stages of effective sales and marketing strategies:
Stage 1: Filling the pipeline with prospects
Stage 2: Following up with prospects
Stage 3: Exploring ways your business can help prospects
Stage 4: Closing sales
You analyzed your current sales and marketing efforts with a self-scoring quiz that prioritized the stage requiring urgent attention.
In Part 2, you learned how to fill your pipeline with potential customers.
In Part 3, we explore ways to follow up with potential customers in your pipeline. And Part 4 tells you how to find the best fit between your business and your prospects and close the sale.
Part 3: Following Up with Prospects
You must follow up with prospects once they're in your pipeline. Otherwise, you've wasted the time and money you invested in attracting these potential customers. Four tactics can help you stay on top of your follow-up process:
1. Assign responsibility and provide key resources. Make sure that your follow-up with prospects is a clearly assigned responsibility with specific performance goals. For example, respond to all incoming calls within one business day.
Staffers need the right resources and tools to follow up effectively. Perhaps you need to create talking points or qualifying questions for use in making follow-up calls. If your pipeline is extremely active, use a computerized system to make sure that follow-ups occur when appropriate. Back-office software for health clubs usually has this capability, as do inexpensive sales force automation tools like Act and Maximizer.
2. Approach prospects with integrity and authenticity. Find a comfortable way to make the initial contact with your prospects. "Comfortable" means an approach that feels authentic and honest to you and helpful and responsive to prospects.
Are you reluctant to follow up with prospects? You're probably forcing yourself into an artificial sales mode that feels scripted or manipulative. Instead, explore question-based selling techniques that focus on what's important to the prospect and how your business might be able to help them.
3. Stay in touch after the initial contact. You must have a strategy for staying in touch after the initial contact. Most customers won't buy based on an initial conversation. You need to stay top-of-mind with them until they're ready to move to the next step.
Don't kid yourself that people will call when they're ready. Out of sight means out of mind. You and your business are strangers to most of your prospects. They won't remember a thing about you a week from now.
We're not talking about calls that ask, "Are you ready to buy yet?" Instead, create communication tools that respect your time and budget while demonstrating the value of your club to potential members. With luck, your communications will be so catchy (and useful) that they'll even spark positive word-of-mouth discussion.
Use tools like e-mail newsletters to remind prospects about the wonderful experiences your members and clients have. Offer short, free teleconference classes on topics they care about, such as holiday eating tips. Invite them to a fashion show of the latest workout apparel at your facility. How about a monthly e-mail with a fun outdoor game they can do with their kids? Or tips for improving their bowling scores?
4. Actively pursue publicity opportunities. Highly visible businesses are generally more credible in the eyes of potential customers and networking/referral sources.
Publicity tactics like public speaking are efficient because they accomplish two goals. First, they expose potential customers to your business. Second, they keep you top-of-mind with prospects who aren't yet ready to buy.
Continue your publicity efforts from Step 1. Look for opportunities to increase the visibility of your business while attracting local media attention. Seek out joint publicity opportunities with organizations that attract people who are likely to match your ideal customer profile.
These techniques can help you stay on top of the follow-up process. In Part 4, you'll learn how to find the best fit between your services and your prospects' needs so that you can close the sale.

Less than six months after announcing plans to build a 50-story office tower downtown and creating what it called an "urban campus" for its growing Houston workforce, Chevron Corp. said those plans are now on hold as the company focuses its resources elsewhere.
"Chevron continues to maintain a strong balance sheet and operating cash flow, but the company is in a unique, capitally-intensive period that will drive peer-leading production and value growth," spokesman Justin Higgs said Thursday.
Higgs said Chevron is still committed to building the tower, as well as a few other real estate projects it had planned around the country that are also being suspended. A large office building project in Midland is moving forward.
The company does not expect to make a decision on when the project could resume until after 2014, Higgs said. Delaying the building, he added, will not affect previously announced employee relocations into Houston.
"We expect our employee presence to continue to grow," Higgs said.
In July, Chevron announced the project: a 1.7-million-square-foot tower, designed by the HOK architecture firm, that would join Chevron's two other downtown buildings to form a campus.
The new building, which would be large enough to house some 4,200 workers, was set to break ground in the second quarter of 2014 and open by the end of 2016. The building site at 1600 Louisiana St. at Pease is property that used to house the old YMCA building on the southern end of downtown.
Chevron occupies 1500 Louisiana and 1400 Smith. It said the expanded campus would have indoor and outdoor common areas, dining facilities, a fitness center and training and conference rooms. Plans called for the new building to be connected to 1500 Louisiana on the lower levels.
The San Ramon, Calif.-based company, which owns its two downtown buildings, bought the site for the tower about two years ago. Earlier this year, Chevron said the building would allow the company to consolidate workers from nearby space the company has been leasing.
For its economic contribution, the company was set to reap a $12 million gift from the Texas Enterprise Fund, as well as $2.7 million property tax abatement from the city.

Stumbled into this blog and love your commentary on the various performances - I love hearing opinion from someone who listens to music and Adam's music as seriously as I do myself. Love it! I'm looking for a decent accoustic of Cuckoo that is not trimmed (as if Tommy's guitar doesn't warrant full consideration!). If you know one, let me know: lichenraig at yahoo dot com. Thanks so much and keep up the wonderful posting!ReplyDeleteReplies
Lichen, thanks for your comment, I'm glad you like to read my posts as well as watch the videos. Here are all the Cuckoo performances so far if that helps you. The Z100 Portland is one of probably a few that have the full intro.Delete
I came to this website for help. I thought I was the only one like this. I'm glad to find you guys.ReplyDelete

You can help prevent
food poisoning by taking precautions when serving
When you eat out, be sure that meat is cooked thoroughly and that
foods that should be refrigerated, such as puddings and cold cuts, are served
cold. Also pay attention to the restaurant environment. If the tables,
dinnerware, and restrooms look dirty, the kitchen may be too.

Letter dated 12/17/97 - Environmental Protection Agency
Mr. Robert Perciasepe
Assistant Administrator for Water
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
401 M Street SW
Washington, DC 20416
Subject: SBREFA Panel Recommendations and Proposed Effluent Guidelines and Limitations for Industrial Laundries; 40 CFR Part 441, December 17, 1997.
Dear Mr. Perciasepe:
I am writing concerning the proposed Effluent Guidelines and Limitations for Industrial Laundries rulemaking by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) which is scheduled to be published today. This rule is the first rule proposed by EPA's Office of Water subject to the provisions of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Flexibility Act (SBREFA) of 1996. I congratulate the agency and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for its exemplary work in implementing the requirements of SBREFA.
I am pleased that the SBREFA Panel, which consisted of representatives from the OMB Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, the Small Business Administration's Office of Advocacy and EPA, played an integral role in the formulation of this proposal. The Panel process provided an important opportunity for small businesses to offer substantive comments to the Federal Panel and the EPA project managers who developed the regulations before the rule was proposed.
With the advice of the small business representatives and owners provided to the Panel, EPA was able to propose a small business exemption which eliminated 8% of the affected businesses without an adverse effect to the environment. Furthermore, in a remarkable departure from "business as usual," EPA describes in great detail the factual and legal foundations for alternative small business exemptions, including the no regulation option, in the proposed rule's preamble. The full and frank discussion allows the public to provide more informed comments and should lead to a better regulation or no regulation. During the SBREFA process, the agency also agreed to perform additional economic analyses, using different assumptions, to analyze further the impacts of this rule, which is now available for public comment. Finally, as a result of the Panel process, EPA made available a "model plant" analysis which combined the data from groups of similar-sized plants and allowed review of the underlying economic impacts on different size plants without compromising confidential business information. This information, normally not made available to the public, can be used by the public to further analyze the economic and environmental effects of the proposed rule.
Although my office does not agree with EPA regarding the merits of the proposal, based on our current knowledge, we do believe that EPA did fulfill the analytic goals of SBREFA, and thereby significantly enhanced the rulemaking product. We will be working with the agency and OMB in drafting the final regulation.
I commend Ms. Sheila Frace and her staff in the Engineering and Analysis Division for their prodigious work during the Panel process and the subsequent interagency review. I was impressed by their knowledge of the subject matter, appropriate insights, and their dedication to this collaborative process, and look forward to working with this office on future Panels.

AHRN dévoile son nouveau plan stratégique
The Asian Harm Reduction Network (AHRN) has unveiled a new strategic direction and five-year plan reflecting an updated mission for the network. Following a thorough review of its old structure and operations, AHRN has developed a new set of objectives that will guide its work over the coming years. These objectives will help to achieve AHRN's vision of a region where necessary harm reduction services and policies are in place and the human rights of drug users are fully respected.
Strategic objectives
- To promote the scale up of humane, evidence informed harm reduction programs for people who use drugs through effective networking, information exchange, collaboration, harmonisation and quality assurance.
- To promote and enhance development of the harm reduction movement in Asia by building a regional platform for harm reduction organizations and strengthening national harm reduction platforms.
- To build effective collaboration and partnerships on harm reduction at national, regional, and international levels.
- To contribute to the development and promotion of drug policies, laws and practices that are equitable, evidence based and respectful of human rights.
A fundamental principle of the 'new' AHRN is that no one organization can achieve these outcomes alone. AHRN's vision can only be achieved through the joint and collaborative actions of national harm reduction networks and organizations. The new AHRN has thus adopted a federation model for its approaches to planning, implementation and governance. National harm reduction networks and organizations will have a key role in determining the future of the network, its work priorities and its ongoing monitoring and evaluation. AHRN will exist fundamentally to serve, facilitate and support the work of its members.

Certainly the most valuable free agent for next year, particularly in light of the retirement of Casey Stoner from Honda, Jorge Lorenzo undoubtedly had massive negotiating leverage when bargaining for his services for the 2013 series. Yamaha has announced today that it has successfully negotiated a two-year extension of its relationship with Lorenzo, through the 2014 season. Here is the press release received by MD:
It is with great pleasure that Yamaha Motor Co. Ltd can confirm the extension of Jorge Lorenzo's contract to ride for the Yamaha Factory Racing MotoGP Team for 2013 and 2014.
Jorge Lorenzo joined Yamaha in 2008, achieving fourth place in his first season and claiming the Rookie of the Year title. He was then second in 2009, went on to become MotoGP World Champion in 2010 and was second again in 2011.
Lorenzo currently leads the 2012 MotoGP Championship by 20 points having taken three victories from the first five completed races of the 18 race series.
Jorge Lorenzo
"I am extremely happy to have signed with Yamaha for two more years. They've made great efforts to retain me in the factory team so I want to thank all those involved at Yamaha for this. I've been treated like part of the Yamaha family since 2008 and I love working with them. It has always been my first option to stay here and so I'm happy that this important negotiation has finished with such a positive outcome. Now I can focus on the Championship and I'm looking forward to paying back Yamaha's trust in me starting at Silverstone this weekend. I look forward to winning many more Championships together; my dream to finish my career with Yamaha is now closer to becoming a reality!"
Lin Jarvis
Yamaha Motor Racing Managing Director
"This is excellent news for Yamaha and for the Yamaha Factory Racing Team," commented Lin Jarvis. Jorge has been with us since 2008 and achieved superb results in the first four years, the highlight being his World Championship victory in 2010. He's currently on top form having won three of the first five GP races and finishing second in the other two. Jorge's contract extension allows both him and Yamaha to concentrate 100% on this year's Championship challenge without any distractions and also to make future plans together to further strengthen the winning partnership."

BROOKLYN, Mich. � While Tony Stewart recovers from a broken leg, his team is still figuring out how to move on without him.
�I'm working under the assumption that he's out for the next month or so or longer,� said Greg Zipadelli, competition director at Stewart-Haas Racing. �He went to the doctor's this week, he had a decent visit. No setbacks. Basically, very simple instructions � stay in bed with your leg up over your heart for the next seven days.�
Stewart broke his right leg in a sprint car crash Aug. 5 at Southern Iowa Speedway. He was released from the hospital last weekend.
Austin Dillon is racing in Stewart's No. 14 Chevrolet in the Sprint Cup Series at Michigan International Speedway this week, but the schedule beyond that is unclear.
�We're certainly looking at trying probably in the next three to four days � before we get to Bristol everything will be ironed out for the rest of the year,� Zipadelli said Friday. �It will be two drivers probably the rest of the year ... just try to get them guys to try to build some chemistry and get the best finishes we can.�
Zipadelli was asked if Dillon is one of the options for the rest of the year.
�Yeah, obviously Austin's done a great job in the Truck Series and Nationwide Series,� Zipadelli said. �We are talking about more races. We don't have anything concrete yet. We're looking at that other option and just seeing how many races that they can do. It looks like one more race at least for Austin through the rest of the year with us.�
Max Papis drove the No. 14 to a 15th-place finish Sunday at Watkins Glen.
The 23-year-old Dillon, who won the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series title two years ago, competes this year in the Nationwide Series and holds the points lead.
Zipadelli said he had a chance to see Stewart on Wednesday and Thursday.
�He's in great spirits and they changed some of his medicines and things of that nature,� he said. �He's going through a little bit of a transition period, but like I said the doctor's appointment went well, or as good as it can. He said the next 7 to 14 days will tell a lot. ... It's going to be a really slow process.�

Futsal? What's that, you ask? An Abington resident who will be coaching the U.S. team at the Maccabiah Games later this month gives the lowdown on this lesser-known offspring of soccer.
If you had to choose between soccer and futsal, the winner would clearly be futsal, insists Michael Monheit, an Abington resident who will be coaching the U.S. team at the Maccabiah Games this summer.
Futsal? What's that, you ask?
Take the internationally beloved sport of soccer, find a heavier ball and squeeze the game onto a smaller indoor court. According to Monheit, there isn't any athlete who has played both sports that prefers soccer to its lesser-known offspring.
Monheit may be slightly overstating soccer players' affinity for futsal but at a practice for the Maccabiah team in late May, athletes certainly appeared to be enjoying the game.
The coach of the team, which will represent the United States as it competes in futsal for only the second time, said the games allow him to combine two of his favorite things: the sport and Israel, where he has visited three times.
Or put differently, "It's like ice cream with whipped cream on top."
Coaching futsal isn't something Monheit just does for kicks. He has become a major advocate of the sport around Philadelphia and would like to see soccer training in this country start with futsal, as it does in many South American countries. He thinks that's the key to making the United States more competitive on the global stage.
"Any parent that I run into that has a child getting involved in soccer, I tell them about futsal," said Monheit, 49, a father of four children, one of whom is on the team.
In 2011, Monheit co-founded the American Futsal Academy, which rents gym space at facilities throughout the Delaware Valley, with the goal of providing year-round indoor training and altering the approach to soccer development in the United States.
What's wrong with the way this country does soccer now? In short, says Monheit, swarm ball — the term used to describe young children all chasing a ball around a field.
"Our current model encourages kids to begin playing on outdoor soccer teams at a young age, and I think that's done at the expense of developing foot skills and touch," said Monheit, an attorney and board member at Reform Congregation Keneseth Israel in Elkins Park.
Futsal features five players on each side, one of whom is a goalie. The sport uses a smaller ball with less bounce, meaning it spends more time on the ground. (Watching the game, the ball moves as though it's not meant to be kicked, producing a thud sound each time it's touched, bouncing twice and then coming to a rest.)
The lack of space on the small court forces players to focus on their footwork and make quick decisions, Monheit said.
He points to some of the world's greatest soccer players, like Argentina's Lionel Messi, who started with the game as proof that the futsal-first approach pays off.
Though relatively new on the American scene, the sport, at least among Jewish athletes, appears to have as wide a global reach as its parent, soccer.
There will be 17 countries competing in futsal at the Maccabiah Games later this month; the only other team sport with as many entrants is, in fact, soccer.
At the late May practice at SMG Sportsplex in Warminster, the futsal team scrimmaged across two basketball courts.
The game moved at a brisk pace. Players sprinted around one another and were constantly angling for position. Hardly 30 seconds went by where there wasn't a scoring chance.
"They're getting their heads up and they're looking around all the time and that's what you want to teach. Futsal is very unforgiving. If your head is down for a second, the ball is going the other way very quickly," said Monheit.
Some of the participants on the U.S. team, comprised of mostly college-age players, had never played futsal before joining the team. The majority of them hail from the East Coast.
Mike Markovitz, a Philadelphia native, grew up playing club soccer for a coach from Argentina, who used futsal for training. Markovitz suggested that the sport "is almost half soccer, half basketball."
This will be his first trip to Israel, but he's a veteran of international Jewish athletic competitions. Over the last six years, he competed in the European Maccabi Games in Rome, the Pan-American Maccabi Games in Buenos Aires and at the Maccabi Australia International Games.
"The thing I love about Maccabi is first of all, you're representing your country; it's incredible. But also, on all my club teams, you have some Jewish kids, but it's totally different when you get everyone together and you all have that common ground," said Markowitz, 20, a bioengineering major at the University of Pennsylvania.
Noah Rothstein holds the distinction of being both the oldest player and traveling the farthest for Philly practices. He is 30 and from Los Angeles.
At the end of the practice, the players all thanked Rothstein, who works in TV and film production, for his commitment to the team.
"Coming here and getting to know the teammates and getting to know the plays can only help us when we get over there," said Rothstein, who traveled to Israel on Birthright and competed on the U.S. soccer team at the Australian Maccabi games two years ago.
For Powell Schneider, competing on the futsal team is one step on a road to recovery following an injury. After graduating high school in Boston, Schneider moved to Israel last year to play professional soccer for F.C. Ashdod but tore his hamstring three games into the season and returned home to the United States. The 19-year-old hopes to stay in Israel after the games and continue playing soccer.
"It was a sad experience," he said. "But you have to bounce back."

This information helped inform the design to ensure that it embodied the same premium qualities consumers seek in their beverages. .Frank Scott: What are some of the challenges you faced during the design/realization of your concept?. Michael Chijoff : Finding the right balance between the design and material technology was the most challenging. Through extensive prototyping we were ultimately able to come up with a design that delivered functionally as well as aesthetically. .Frank Scott: How did you decide to submit your design to an international design competition?. Michael Chijoff : We were really excited about our approach and design outcome and wanted to take the opportunity to put it out there. As were were winners for another design in last years competition we felt it was a natural fit to do it again this year. .Frank Scott: What did you learn or how did you improve yourself during the designing of this work?. Michael Chijoff : We found that no mat.[ End of Excerpt: Read complete interview with Michael Chijoff on Tactica One Bottle Opener at design-interviews.com ]

We started off with some warm up loving and teasing. The room got hotter as they started to undress. I got my buddy in the mix of things cause they ladies wanted some man meat to play with. They swapped the bone back and forth and got wetter then ever. The juicies flowed through out the day.

Vitamin C is consumed in a supplemental form by millions of people across the world for its antioxidant properties, which are well-documented in medical research. NOW Foods C-1000 provides a potent dosage of this key vitamin and is blended with Rose Hips, a natural source of Vitamin C and a synergist.Now Foods Vitamin C-1000 with Rose Hips 100 Tablets Now Foods Vitamin C-1000 with Rose Hips 100 Tablets Antioxidant Protection Now Foods Vitamin C-1000 with Rose Hips 100 Tablets Sustained Release with Rose Hips Now Foods Vitamin C-1000 with Rose Hips 100 Tablets Vegetarian Formula What is Calcium Ascorbate? Calcium Ascorbate is a buffered salt (mineral) form of the water-soluble antioxidant Vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Calcium is reacted with ascorbic acid to buffer the acidic nature of this vitamin, making it more gentle for the special needs of those who may have a sensitive gastrointestinal tract. The pH of this buffered mineral Ascorbate is approximately 6.8—7.4 as compared to ascorbic acid that is about a pH of 2.5. Calcium Ascorbate provides approximately 10% elemental calcium.Now Foods Vitamin C-1000 with Rose Hips 100 Tablets
What does Calcium Ascorbate do? Ascorbate (vitamin C) is a reducing sugar (has a reactive ene-diol structure) that is involved in biochemical processes such as hydroxylation of proline and lysine utilized in the formation of collagen and healthy connective tissue. A deficiency in Ascorbate results in a disease called scurvy which manifests as weakened collagen fibers, rotting teeth, delayed healing and open sores on the skin. Ascorbate is involved in many other vital functions such as the mobilization of iron, stimulation of immune system and as an anti-oxidant for scavenging of reactive free radicals.
Is this a necessary vitamin or can our bodies make enough to satisfy our needs? Many plants and animals do not need to consume foods high in ascorbic acid to meet their need for Vitamin C because they are genetically programmed to produce enzymes that convert glucose into ascorbic acid. Unfortunately humans have only 3 of the 4 enzymes necessary for internal production of ascorbic acid, therefore we must satisfy our physical needs for this important vitamin through our intake of foods rich in vitamin C and/or take a good supplement.
What is the function of the Citrus Bioflavonoids? Bioflavonoids are biologically active Flavonoid compounds found throughout the entire plant kingdom. Since the discovery of Flavonoids in 1936 when they were first isolated from lemons and called citrin and Vitamin P over 4,000 different types have been characterized. Though there are several forms of Bioflavonoids in the complex the predominant form is Hesperidin. These Flavonoids exhibit beneficial effects on capillary permeability and therefore support blood flow. They are antioxidants that work synergistically with Vitamin C.
Why are there color variations in your different Vitamin C products, and are they safe to take? Most natural Vitamin C products vary in color from batch to batch and bottle to bottle. There are normally variations in the color of the raw material used during manufacturing, which is a normal occurrence. This is due to natural color variations in the source of the Vitamin C – generally, you will find C supplements to range in color from a light tan color to a light gray color.Over the course of the shelf-life of a Vitamin C supplement, oxidation can cause a slight change in color, so you may find the light tan C-1000 you bought has changed to a darker tan six months later. This is a normal occurrence, and the product is safe to use up until the expiration date, and even beyond. NOW is generally conservative with expiration dates, so a Vitamin C product is still safe after the date, it just may not be as effective due to oxidation. ules, tablets or softgels, for various reasons. Encapsulated Vitamin C products from NOW can be opened and dumped into a liquid for consumption. Juice or water is recommended if you choose this method. However, taking Vitamin C with water on an empty stomach is the recommended method of ingestion. NOW does not recommend trying this method with Vitamin C in tablet form, although you can grind or smash a tablet into powder form and add to water or juice. If you choose to do this, use a mortar and pestle for best results and minimal loss of product.

Yesterday, the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) commemorated the 10th anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks with a "Remembrance Day" observance that included placing a patriotic wreath on the university's flag plaza.
"We honor those who died on Sept. 11, 2001, those who valiantly gave their lives and those who continue to protect us today," Dr. Mortimer H. Neufville, the university's interim president, said. "Let us not forget them."
Displaying a wreath at the base of the American flag in front of the J. T. Williams administration building culminated a 90-minute program that began at the nearby Henson Center. Tears welled up in the eyes of some as UMES' students sang "Oh, Sweet Wonder."
The subdued gathering included a brief sermon by the Rev. Elmer N. Davis Jr., and inspired recollections from some of the 80 students, faculty, staff and guests who attended the ceremony.
Senior Jamal C. Drayton, 26, of Salisbury, was in a high school chemistry when he learned of the attacks.
"It started to scare me," Drayton said. "Some people started crying."
Student government president Valarie V. Matthews, 21, was a sixth-grader in Baltimore when the attacks occurred.
"I honestly really do not remember my experience from 9-11," said Matthews, a biology major. "But I know everybody was very upset."
Jeffrey O. Ekoma, 20, lived in Rhode Island 10 years ago and remembers the unemotional look on the face of his social studies teacher, who cancelled the day's lesson and turned on the television shortly after 9 a.m. Moments later, Ekoma said he saw the second plane hit the World Trade Center's south tower.
"Everybody's faced dropped. I thought, 'What's happening?'" said Ekoma, who hopes to study medicine when he graduates. "It was a moment I will never forget."
That was the message delivered by Davis, pastor of St. James United Methodist Church and others who spoke prior to the flag plaza ceremony.
Beverly Long, an emergency medicine technician / firefighter with the Princess Anne fire department, represented local "first responders" at UMES' event.
Long, a registered nurse, had just begun EMT training in 2001 that used a textbook with a picture of the World Trade Center buildings on the cover.
At the time of the attacks, "I realized how scared I was for my kids," Long said. "My husband wasn't thrilled by what I was doing. But I'm more committed than ever to what I do" as a volunteer EMT-firefighter.
Neufville, who shared that his daughter worked in an office building near the World Trade Center towers and witnessed the second plane crash into one of the buildings, told the gathering: "Let us be vigilant."
Sunday's observance was a somber, respectful start to Founders' Week at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, which is celebrating the 125th anniversary of its founding on Sept. 13, 1886.

|Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hua Chunying's Regular Press Conference on November 10, 2017
Q: Today, President Trump wrapped up his visit to China. His visit has attracted considerable attention from people of various sectors from both home and abroad. What is your comment on this visit?
A: At the invitation of President Xi Jinping, President Donald Trump paid a state visit to China from November 8 to 10. This is the first state visit received by China following the successful conclusion of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and it has drawn great attention not only from China and the United States but also from other countries around the globe. Thanks to the concerted efforts of the two sides, it has become a successful historic visit.
During the visit, President Xi Jinping and President Trump had a candid and in-depth exchange of views on China-US relations and major international and regional issues of common interest and reached a series of new important consensus on the growth of China-US relations in the next period to come. The meeting of the two heads of state in Beijing has achieved important and fruitful outcomes.
Yesterday, Vice Foreign Minister Zheng Zeguang gave the media a detailed introduction on the outcomes and consensus of the meeting between the two heads of state. I would like to lay emphasis on the following three points:
Firstly, the two sides reaffirmed the importance of China-US ties and expected to develop the more sustained and robust China-US relations. They believe that China and the United States have extensive shared interests and responsibilities in upholding world peace, stability and prosperity and in which direction the China-US relations will head can have an important influence on the whole world. The China-US ties that enjoy constant growth not only serve the fundamental interests of the two peoples but also meet the shared expectations of the international community. The development of China and the United States is mutually reinforcing and can be achieved in parallel. The success of either side serves the common interests of the two countries. They should respect each other's sovereignty, territorial integrity, respective choice for development path and the differences between them. As for China and the United States, cooperation is the only right choice and pursuing win-win outcomes can lead to a better future. The two sides have agreed to continue giving play to the strategic guiding role of the head of state diplomacy in bilateral relations, step up high-level exchanges and exchanges at other levels, bring into full play the role of the four high-level dialogue mechanisms, expand cooperation between the two militaries and in such areas as trade, law-enforcement and people-to-people interactions on the basis of mutual benefit, properly manage differences on the basis of mutual respect, enhance the mutual understanding and friendship between the two peoples and strengthen communication and coordination on major international and regional issues so as to move forward the China-US ties.
Secondly, the two sides have reached important consensus on handling the issue of economic relations and trade in a constructive way with important outcomes being achieved in this regard. They are willing to stay committed to the China-US economic cooperation and trade featuring mutual benefit and win-win outcomes and have agreed to tackle the problems and contradictions arising from the rapid development of China-US economic relations in a forward-looking and constructive manner, resolve them by making the pie of China-US economic cooperation bigger and promote the sound and steady growth of China-US economic relations and trade in a dynamically balanced way. The business contracts and two-way investment agreements inked by the two countries this time are valued at over 250 billion US dollars, which demonstrates that the China-US economic cooperation and trade is broadly based and enjoys a bright prospect.
Thirdly, the two sides have reached important consensus on properly addressing the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue. They reaffirm their strong commitment to realizing the denuclearization of the Peninsula, upholding the international non-proliferation regime and resolving the issue through dialogue and negotiation. They stand ready to jointly explore a way to achieve the lasting peace and stability of the Peninsula and Northeast Asia with other relevant parties.
The China-US ties are now standing at a new historical starting point. The meeting between the two heads of state in Beijing charters the course and maps up the blueprint for the growth of China-US relations in the next period to come. The Chinese side stands ready to join hands with the United States to earnestly follow through on the important consensus reached by the two heads of state, focus on cooperation and manage differences in the spirit of mutual respect and mutual benefit so as to promote the sustained, sound and steady growth of China-US relations in the new era.
Q: Firstly, it is reported that President Xi Jinping has just arrived in Da Nang, Vietnam and he will attend the 25th APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting. Has the schedule of President Xi been finalized and can you release it? Which economies' leaders will President Xi meet with? Secondly, regarding the trade imbalance between China and the United States, the US President Donald Trump yesterday said that he will not blame China and it is the fault of the past several US administrations. What is your view on this?
A: On your first question, President Xi Jinping has arrived in Da Nang, Vietnam this afternoon. He will attend the plenary session of the Dialogue between Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders and APEC Business Advisory Council (ABAC) Representatives, the parallel session of the Dialogue between APEC Leaders and ABAC Representatives and the Informal Dialogue between APEC and ASEAN Leaders this afternoon. Tomorrow he will attend the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting. During his stay in Da Nang, President Xi will hold bilateral meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin and other leaders. We will release the relevant information in a timely manner.
On your second question, China and the United States are the top two largest economies in the world with highly complementary economic relations and structures and deeply integrated interests. With the rapid growth of China-US economic cooperation and trade, it is quite natural for the two countries to have some differences and frictions. Resolving relevant issues calls for the concerted and unremitting efforts of the two sides. I have said just now that during President Trump's visit to China this time, important outcomes have been reaped in bilateral economic cooperation and trade, which speaks for the broad prospects and vast potential of this kind of cooperation and trade. The Chinese side stands ready to join hands with the United States to follow the principle of equality, mutual benefit, mutual understanding and mutual accommodation to properly address relevant issues through dialogue and consultation in a forward-looking and constructive way and by making the pie of China-US economic cooperation bigger and bigger, so that the China-US economic relations and trade can move forward in the direction of dynamic balance, mutual benefit and win-win outcomes.
Q: Panamanian President Juan Carlos Varela will pay a visit to China next week. Could you give us more details on this? When will he meet with President Xi Jinping?
A: At the invitation of President Xi Jinping, President Juan Carlos Varela of the Republic of Panama will pay a state visit to China from November 16 to 22. During his visit, President Xi Jinping will hold a welcoming ceremony and banquet for him, and the two heads of state will hold talks and jointly attend the signing ceremony of cooperation documents. Premier Li Keqiang and Chairperson of the CPC Central Committee Zhang Dejiang will meet with President Juan Carlos Varela respectively. In addition to Beijing, President Juan Carlos Varela will also travel to Shanghai.
China and Panama established formal diplomatic ties this June. During the past five months and more, the relations between the two countries have got off to a quick start and enjoyed rapid development. While visiting Panama in the middle of this September, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said that China and Panama had waited for too long for the establishment of diplomatic relations, and we should lose no time in developing our comprehensive cooperation. Since the establishment of diplomatic ties, we have set up embassies and our departments have quickly worked with their counterparts. We have launched in synchronization over ten cooperation agreements in such fields as trade, investment, quality inspection, shipping, civil aviation, finance, tourism, culture and judiciary. The two countries boast great vitality of development and have enormous complementary advantages, so we can surely speed up the development of our cooperation. The Chinese side highly values its relationship with Panama. Taking the opportunity of President Juan Carlos Varela's visit, we stand ready to continuously enhance mutual understanding and mutual trust and accelerate friendly exchanges and mutually beneficial cooperation in various fields for our common development and to the benefits of the two peoples. We believe that President Juan Carlos Varela's state visit will open up a broader prospect for China-Panama relations and a new era of common prosperity for the two countries.
Q: Recently, Typhoon "Damrey" batters Vietnam. Has the Chinese side sent a message of condolence to Vietnam? Will China provide assistance to the Vietnamese side?
A: Recently, the central and southern regions of Vietnam were hit by a strong typhoon. General Secretary and President Xi Jinping has sent a message of condolence to General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) Nguyen Phu Trong and President of Vietnam Tran Dai Quang, which expressed deep sympathy and sincere condolences to the losses of life and property caused by the disaster. China and Vietnam are friendly neighbors. In order to help the Vietnamese government with its disaster-relief efforts, the Chinese government has launched the foreign emergency humanitarian assistance mechanism and will provide the needed supplies to Vietnam as soon as possible. We are convinced that under the strong leadership of the Vietnamese Party and government, the Vietnamese people are bound to overcome the disaster and rebuild their homeland at an early date.
Q: We are wondering if there is any information from the Chinese side about new developments in regulating the opioid substances, fentanyl in particular following President Trump's visit?
A: Yesterday, Vice Minister Zheng Zeguang gave the media an introduction on the relevant information and outcomes of President Trump's visit. The two sides have agreed to continue enhancing their cooperation in the field of regulating new psychoactive substances and their precursors and anti-drug law enforcement and engage in bilateral anti-drug intelligence exchanges. The Chinese side will continue promoting the listing and regulation of the new psychoactive substances which are highly concerned by the two sides. The two sides will strengthen intelligence-sharing on fentanyl analogues, conduct cooperation on individual cases which involve drug-related postal parcels and jointly combat illegal trafficking activities. I would refer you to the Ministry of Public Security for detailed information.
Q: Firstly, there are reports that Special Representative Talks on China-India Boundary Question will be held. Can you tell us whether the time and schedule have been finalized? Secondly, the China-Russia-India Foreign Ministers' Meeting will be held next month. Do you know the detailed arrangements for this?
A: With regard to your first question, the leaders of China and India attach great importance to the boundary question. For many years, the two sides have made tremendous efforts to settle the border issue. The Special Representatives on China-India Boundary Question have held nineteen rounds of talks, in which they had a full exchange of views and positive progress has been achieved. Currently, the mechanism of Special Representatives on China-India Boundary Question has been operated smoothly. The two sides will discuss and finalize the time of this year's talks in due course. If we have the relevant information, we will release it in a timely manner.
With regard to your second question, the Chinese side highly values the China-Russia-India cooperation mechanism and supports the Indian side in holding the 15th China-Russia-India Foreign Ministers' Meeting. Now the three parties are maintaining communication on relevant detailed arrangements.
Q: The series of Leaders' Meetings on East Asia Cooperation will be held soon. Will Premier Li Keqiang meet with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the sidelines of these meetings?
A: I have no information to offer to you.

Why our high school barkada is the best?
Remembering our high school years entails quite a lot reminiscing of the things we all been through when we were younger. You've experience a lot of new things during those 4 wonderful years and did most of them with the few people you consider your barkada. And through a series of all the lunch breaks you had together, the walks you took on the way home, and taking the same classes, you never thought you'd survive, you have made your life's greatest friends.
Here are some of the reasons why your high school barkada is the best:
1. You figured out early teenage life together. The transition one have undergone from being a kid to a teenager wasn't easy. For a moment you are not sure whether you should have played with your friends during recess or you should have just sat down and ate your food because you were too old for games. But whatever it is you chose to do, having friends who were as clueless as you make everything feel easier because you know, deep down, you'd figure things out eventually. You just need good company.
2. They were with you during your "jeje" days. I bet you have pictures taken with Camera360 and Retrica. You also have pictures edited using Pizap with embarrassing captions and you somehow kept some of them so you could have something to post online during their birthdays.
3. They know all your exes. They will never EVER forget the name of an ex-boyfriend, an ex-fling, an ex-crush, and an almost you had. They will remind you of your every questionable love decision but you'll just laugh anyway while saying "Past is past".
4. They never judge you. They have welcomed you to their lives when you thought jelly shoes and checkered polos were the bomb! They were quick to have told your teachers that you were not feeling well so you could go home when you really just needed to poop. You tell them every embarrassing story you have and were fine with it.
5. You can always count on them. From the moment you first fell in love and the moment you first had your heart broken, they were with you. They were with you the moment you lost a parent and at moments when you thought you had nothing. Through every break-up and breakthrough, they were there to be your support system.
6. They are your family. Your high school friend's family is your own family's extension. Their parents are like your own. Don't you feel a little kilig whenever your friend's parents call you "anak"? And then eventually calling them mama and papa became so natural? I felt that, all the time.
7. They will always be your home. They are your place of refuge and security, the place who offers you their hands when you feel lost and the place you run to when you need saving. No matter how much time and distance separate you, they will be the one's that you always long for and they are the one's that you will always return to.
You're gonna bend and break and then at some point in your life, you feel like you don't want to fall in love again.
Not because you're no longer capable of loving but because you're so afraid to get hurt again that you don't want to take a risk anymore. And you're gonna wake up one day and realize that you're not the same person as you were yesterday. The heart aches, heartbreaks, frustration, you'll see, those will transform your whole being into something better.
Honey, move forward. Let go off all the things that are not meant for you. Let go of all the people who hurt you and take you for granted. Don't be stuck feeling miserable.
And don't turn that love into hate when you resent someone for hurting you or for breaking your heart. Just wish them well and let them go. Welcome the possibility of a beautiful love that will come your way. You're worthy of love that you keep on giving to other people. Keep that in mind.
I wish you well and all the happiness. You deserve it.
Here we are — with rough hands entwined, damned hearts at peace, broken souls resting with ease —savoring each passing moment before we part ways...hoping things will turn out to be okay. Here we are — standing still, keeping our earnest desire and ardent passion for each other at bay — hoping the Universe will finally grant us of the day that we no longer have to pretend... that things will no longer have to end.
Here we are — with crooked smiles, lingering touch that will last for a while -- gathering all the remaining courage to set each other free.

OAKLAND -- Occupy supporters plan to retake Frank H. Ogawa Plaza on Thursday to mark the anniversary of the initial eviction of the Oakland encampment and the ensuing protests.
Demonstrators are planning to converge on the plaza outside City Hall at 3 p.m., march through downtown at 7 p.m. before returning to re-establish the plaza encampment, according to an announcement posted online.
The announcement urged supporters to bring "tents, warm clothes, shields, a defensive attitude and hella friends."
A few hundred protesters are expected to participate.
The city released a statement Tuesday pledging to protect free-speech rights, while also expressing zero tolerance for overnight camping at theplaza or vandalism, which has marred several prior Occupy protests.
Downtown businesses and restaurants, including frequent vandal targets Rudy's Can't Fail Cafe and Sears, said they would not close early on Thursday. The most notable exception is the Downtown Oakland YMCA, which will close at 6 p.m. instead of 10 p.m.
The California Trucking Association warned its members Wednesday that protesters may again target the Port of Oakland, either Thursday or Nov. 2, the anniversary of last year's Occupy-inspired general strike and port protest.
The events of last Oct. 25 have had lasting consequences for Oakland. The early morning eviction of the encampment was followed by an evening of massive protests that surprised city and police officials.
Amid the street fighting, a police officer fired a beanbag that severely injured Iraq War veteran Scott Olsen and then fired additional less-than-lethal projectiles at protesters who tried to come to his aid.
The violence resulted in a series of fierce street protests over the next several months and severely damaged Mayor Jean Quan's standing in the city. The botched police response was criticized in a city-commissioned review and could help make the case later this year for a federal judge to strip Oakland's control over the Police Department.
Occupy activities have died down in recent months after the movement staged several provocative actions early in the year that included an attempt to take over the Kaiser Convention Center and weekly marches against the police.
The movement's last major pre-announced protest was May 1, during which several hundred demonstrators marched through city streets, at times scuffling with police and attempting to enter downtown businesses.
Since then Occupy's ranks have been depleted, but at least one faction of supporters has continued with a campaign of sporadic vandalism in Oakland.
Occupy agitators smashed the window at President Barack Obama's Oakland campaign headquarters in August and vandalized several downtown storefronts last month after failing to crash the city's Pride Festival. Earlier this month, vandals attached themselves to a nighttime anti-war marched and smashed the windows of several downtown businesses.

SNOHOMISH — During the first bout of Saturday's championship round of the 4A Region 1 wrestling tournament, Lake Stevens wrestling coach Brent Barnes kicked back and relaxed, sitting in the coach's corner of the center mat of three covering the gym floor at Snohomish High School.
Barnes got to pick which coach's corner he sat in for this one because the Vikings placed both wrestlers in the 106-pound final. Not only that but Lake Stevens already had amassed enough points to win the team crown — the Vikings' 239.5 points entering the finals was more than second-place Yelm (182.5) finished with at the end of the night.
The Vikings (284.5) used seven individual championships to put distance between themselves and Yelm, which moved up from 3A a year ago, and league-rival Snohomish (117 points) in third place.
The seven champs came from nine finalists, including freshman AJ Crew, who lost to teammate and classmate Michael Soler 6-1 in the lightweight bout.
Barnes, whose Vikings have won four of the past six 4A state team titles, emphasized the value of earning No. 1 seeds heading into the Mat Classic XXV next Friday and Saturday at the Tacoma Dome. Fourteen Vikings finished in the top four at Saturday's region meet and will wrestle at state next week.
"You want to come out of here with No. 1s going into next week because No. 1s wrestle fours and that's huge," Barnes said. "We took care of our business this weekend."
It was a far cry from a year ago when Lake Stevens finished a disappointing — by Vikings standards — fifth place in the state and lost to Snohomish in the district tournament. Barnes joked that the difference was, "Our kids made weight," referencing two key wrestlers not qualifying to participate in regionals last year. He attributed this year's success to the balance between senior leadership and upstart freshman.
"We have this group of four freshman that have qualified for state," Barnes said. "That's incredible with two champions.
"You don't expect freshman to have that big of an impact."
Michael Soler will be one of the several local favorites to make the finals next week after just losing twice this year, both to out-of-state opponents. He's excited about the chance to be atop the podium again, but more so about the team crown. He wants to face Crew in the final again.
"It'd be awesome," said Soler, whose older brother Eric won the 145-pound crown and will be going for back-to-back individual titles in Tacoma. "It'd help the team out a lot. That's our real goal, the team title."
Heavyweight Brandon Johnson bookended the Viking parade, capturing his second district crown with a 5-3 decision.
Wrestlers from Wesco collected the first seven weight classes Saturday night, including defending state champ Noah Cuzzetto of Edmonds-Woodway at 113 pounds.
Earlier in the day Cuzzetto was voted the region's wrestler of the year. During the final he barely outlasted Yelm's Darren Harris, bridging out of a potential pin in the final seconds to preserve a 6-5 decision.
"It definitely was an extra," Cuzzetto said. "Having a little more pressure to win that one because, I mean, you can't be the Wrestler of the Year and lose your finals match."
Harris looked up at the scoreboard when the whistle blew and just shrugged.
"I think I was probably more nervous than they were," E-W coach Brian Alfi said. "It was probably just another match for them.
"You would have thought there would be a little more emotion at the end for a regional championship, but neither one of these wrestlers' goal was a regional championship. They both won state titles last year. They both understand that it doesn't matter where they go in the bracket … as long as they are in."
The Warriors got four athletes to advance and were the only other school with more than one individual champ. Nathan Vulliet won 132 pounds with a 4-0 decision over Arlington's Bryce Thomas in the final.
Vulliet may have raised an eyebrow of some in the building, but not Alfi.
"He's light years ahead of where he was last year, so if someone had not seen Nathan and all the work he put in during the summer, they'd be surprised to see him win a regional championship, but the kid is a phenomenal worker."
Snohomish had a quiet third place overall finish, but a nice day for a team that went from double-digit seniors a year ago to five in 2013. The Panthers had no individual champs but three regional finalists and nine advanced to the state tournament.
Perhaps the most impressive Panther finalist was Tristan Baus, who battled Olympia's two-time regional champ Tanner Hartsoch to an 8-6 defeat. Baus left the mat with a bloody lip, but his close loss only added to his great season.
"He's been a real pleasant surprise for us all year as far as how much he's grown as an athlete as a person," Snohomish coach Rob Zabel said. "Good things are in store for that kid."
Zabel was voted, for the second consecutive year, the district's coach of the year.
"It's flattering that your peers think of you in that manner," he said. "But I'd trade it in a heartbeat for a couple more wins."
A year ago Gino Obregon wrestled for Snohomish and had to wrestle opposite his dad Brooklyn, the Cascade coach, in a winner-to-state, loser-out bout during the regional.
After a summer move by the family to Everett, they were in the same corner for the 126-pound final this time and Gino quickly pinned Brian Rochester from Yelm. The happy Bruin junior jumped into his dad's arms after the win.
"He makes me very proud," the elder Obregon said. "Extremely proud."
The second-year Bruin coach was also proud of his team, which made huge strides this season.
"We went from no participants last year and one alternate to four kids and 3 alternates," Brooklyn said. "I'm extremely proud of the progress."

Tyra's Spanish Tarragon Pesto – Sweet Mace Pesto
RECIPE - Tyra's Spanish Tarragon Pesto – Sweet Mace Pesto
45g (1/4 cup) pine nuts
3,5 dl/1 1/2 cups of fresh 'Sweet Mace' leaves
2 garlic cloves
60g (3/4 cup) shredded parmesan
¾ dl/ 5 tbls olive oil
This is a tarragon flavored variation of the Italian classic pesto. Do try it with meat, poultry or why not try it with fried courgettes or other vegetable from your kitchen garden.
Roast the pine nuts on a baking tray in an oven on medium heat (200C.) for about five minutes or until they are done (light golden roasted) Remove the pine nuts from the oven and tray and let cool. Place the 'Sweet Mace' herb, garlic, pine nuts, parmesan in a food processor and cut until it all is finely chopped. Now it is time to add the olive oil, pour it in slowly with the food processor on slow speed. Blend until it all is well blended. I hope you will enjoy the Sweet Mace Pesto (Spanish Tarragon Pesto)

Let $f:X \rightarrow Y$ be a morphism between two smooth projective varieties $X,Y$ which are defined over an algebraically closed field $k$. I am looking for some criteria which guaranties the projectivity of $f$.
For instance if $f$ is finite it is projective. Here we don't need the projectivity of the varieties $X,Y$.
Is the morphism $f$ projective if
Question1: The fibers of $f$ are finite?
Question 2: $f$ is one-to-one?
Question 3: $f$ is onto?
Does the assumption $k=\mathbb{C}$ make the questions easier?

As an occassional content contributor, I have the pleasure of hanging out with the Jalopnik team when I am in the city or when we work on projects together. What a hilarious and warm group of folks that just love everything car culture. The kind of guys you'd want to chat with over a beer or two.
Tonight was my first opportunity to attend a Jalopnik meetup where readers of the site could meet the writers/editors/hosts. I'll be honest, knowing the internet I didn't know quite what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised. It turned out to be a packed room full of car loving geeks obsessed about discussing everything car culture... people like myself.
I met an original 1979 Cannonball Run contestant who told the story of crashing his Lotus Esprit, abandoning his car, and limping his way to the finish line to enjoy a week long party with the other contestants. Also met some pretty cool custom car builders and members of the NY Classic Car Club, and the infamous Alex Roy was even giving rides to fans/readers in his wacky Morgan 3-wheeled car, which was awesome of him to do. I'm really glad I went. What other site can you go to a casual meetup and meet unique folks like this in one place?
I'm proud of how far Jalopnik has come and am excited about where it will go with the new redesign, which will now give a great chance for readers to have their voice to be heard on the site.
Speaking of which... follow me on Kinja!

The End?
So, we've reached the end of the road. At least for now.
Thank you so much for accompanying me on the ride that has been Chili's World. With ups and downs, there's over 500 strips here (525 to be more precise), which I hope made your days a little better.
I don't know if there will be any more comics of Chili's World, but it doesn't mean that I won't keep busy. For starters I've been adapting classic nursery rhymes into comics, which you can check here: nurseryrhymescomics.tumblr.com I'll also do the ocasional seasonal card with the characters, and who knows, maybe down the road we'll see what's been up with the gang.
Once again, thanks for reading!
