Who does a property manager work for?
When you decide that it's time to take a step back and hire a property management company to help you with your properties, remember that you are doing exactly that: you are hiring them. They are an employee of yours, and as such, you'll want to conduct thorough interviews to make sure that you are hiring the best company for your business. Not every model works for every landlord, so check them out and make sure your money is going to the right company that will work well with you.
There are a few things that you'll want to check when you sit down for the interviews. It's best, like when hiring anyone, that you have everything in order before the actually meeting. You'll want to make sure that they have the experience needed to do what you need them to do. Check into their past. Name changes, holes in their resume, and anything that seems to be sketchy just may be. You don't want to hire a company that is constantly trying to cut corners or make themselves look better than they really are. These are the companies that will land you into more trouble than it's worth.
When choosing your company, make sure their qualifications line up. Are they licensed to practice property management? You'll want to make sure that the company's employees continue in their education. They should always be working on certification and keeping their knowledge up to date. If they do not follow the laws in the area for landlord-tenant relationships, it won't only come back on them, it'll come back on you. Laws are ever-changing and always being tweaked by the government officials that don't send out alerts to all landlords and property managers. It's the manager's (and the landlord's) responsibility to keep up with these and make sure you're on top of any new changes. If you're not (and if they're not) you might find yourself and your property in violation of the law.
Following up on what type of work they do for the other landlords they've worked with is important. You'll want to know if they have a specialty that they work with, where they manage (locally or nationally), what types of properties they've managed, etc etc Look for references, check them, and dig as deeply as you can if you find that you're interested in pursuing them as your property management company. It may take a little extra work at the beginning, but it's worth it in the end.

This application downloads a file from an HTTPS server (os.mbed.com) and looks for a specific string in that file.
Set up your environment if you have not done so already. For instructions, refer to the main readme.
You can also compile this example with the Mbed Online Compiler by using this project.
This example uses by default an Ethernet connection to the internet. It's possible to switch to another network interface by using Easy Connect. The Mbed OS Example Client application shows an example of how to configure other network interfaces.
The networking stack used in this example requires TLS functionality to be enabled on Mbed TLS. On devices where hardware entropy is not present, TLS is disabled by default. This would result in compile time or linking failures.
To learn why entropy is required, read the TLS Porting guide.
NOTE: Make sure that the network is functional before running the application.
This probably means you need to update the contents of the SSL_CA_PEM constant (this can happen if you modify HTTPS_SERVER_NAME, or when os.mbed.com switches to a new CA when updating its certificate).

On the path to your dream, your commitment to God and others may be tested. It is great to remember that God knows where we are and how much we can handle. Today’s trials just might be preparing us for tomorrow’s victories! In Genesis 37 and 39, Joseph faces four very difficult tests of character that show us how to navigate toward our dream even against overwhelming odds.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 8:11-20; Mark 8:1-21 As we live in the present and look to our future, don’t forget to look back in your past and see what God has done for you. God is with us always.
Today’s message continues our Navigating Life and Relationships series by looking in on Jacob’s life in Genesis 35. God invites Jacob to venture along "memory lane” as he was there reminded of God’s provision and promises. Like Jacob, we too are invited to a new beginning in Him and to abundant living.
How blessed we are that the God of the the universe cares about us.
Life is short and entirely in the hands of God. Boasting about what we will do in the future is a waste of time and energy. Number your days and trust God for the future.

The contract was signed between the International Airport Development Company (IADC) and Taiwanese firm, Overseas Engineering and Construction Company Ltd (OECC). Chairman and CEO of the IADC Dr. Rudolph Matthias and Corporate Secretary Rochelle Forde signed on behalf of the IADC, while, Mr. Peter Chung-Zen signed on behalf of the IADC.
The signing ceremony also heard brief remarks from Dr. Matthias, Mr. Peter Chung-Zen, Taiwanese Ambassador Weber Shih, Minister of Foreign Affairs Hon. Dr. Douglas Slater and Acting Prime Minister Hon. Girlyn Miguel.
This morning’s signing ceremony saw attendances from several government ministers, senior civil servants including ambassadors based at some of SVG’s overseas missions, members of the IADC staff and the media.
The contract is worth US$26, 500,000.00. It covers construction of the passenger terminal building, electrical substation, internal and external signage, and related preliminaries.
During the year 2009, IADC finalized its design objectives for the passenger terminal building and other landside facilities and awarded the contract for the design and supervision to a Taiwanese firm, CECI Engineering Consultants Inc. This design contract is valued at US$3.3 million.
The landside facilities include: the Terminal building, Cargo Terminal building, Signage, Fire and Rescue Station, Control Tower, Roads, Drainage and Parking lot.
The passenger terminal building will have 3 floors, with 12,065 square meters of floor space. This total floor area is more than 3 times the floor area of the terminal building at the E.T. Joshua Airport.
The Argyle terminal building is designed to accommodate 1.4 million passengers per year. This is more than 5 times the number of passengers currently passing through the E. T. Joshua Airport in any one year. The Argyle Airport Terminal Building is therefore sized to accommodate the expected growth in passenger traffic in the medium and long term.
Construction of the passenger terminal building is expected within 28 months and should begin by early August 2011.
Later this year, IADC will enter into contracts with other private firms for the construction of the Fire and Rescue Station, Cargo Terminal Building and Control Tower. However, IADC has decided to do the site works, internal roads, drains and parking areas, using resources already at its disposal.

I updated my Roon server and client from v1.2 to v1.3, and after a couple of hours the only music I see is still just imported Tidal tracks and the Internet Radio streams I’d defined.
…which don’t seem to change.
If I look at Playlists, they seem to contain the tracks they should, but every track is marked as “unavailable”.
…I see the title “Choose Music Storage Folder” over a big blank section of window, no parts of the server’s file tree [is that what’s supposed to be there?] shown.
Now… all I can think of about my setup which may be different from other installations is that RoonServer is not being run as root. Obviously, one doesn’t run a daemon with more privilege than it needs, and when I first installed several versions ago I particularly wanted to make sure RoonServer would run as a user which has read, but not write, access to the music library - since the library is precious. RoonServer has write access to where its own library database is stored, of course. This setup has been working just fine throughout the v1.2 times and earlier.
RoonServer runs as user “roon” (by the way, is a non-root install a standard install option yet?) and I’ve confirmed that I can change to that user and access the library files… so I don’t know if the non-root UID the server is running as has activated a bug or if there’s some other issue. Any guesses?
P.S. If seeing paths above beginning with “/Volumes” raised an eyebrow in the context of a Linux server, note that when the Linux RoonServer first came out, this library got migrated from a Mac to Linux… so there are some symlinks involved to keep the paths intact. But note that the file browser above doesn’t show any local files on the server!
Check your PMs @Jeffrey_Moore, I’d like to get a look at your logs.
Same here. All of my local content is unavailable. My old watch directory is now listed as ‘migrating from pre-v1.3’ and trying to add a new directory gets me an empty box.
My watch directory is a mountpoint passed in from a zfs pool on the host, if that makes any sense.
I have exact the same situation. Roon Server is running in a lxc Ubuntu 16.04.1 container.
My watch directory is a mount point passed in from a btrfs-pool on the host.
After the 1.2 -> 1.3 migration, only the Tidal albums are available.
(if I connect via a Roon client on my Mac, I cannot see or change the watched folders… only the status ‘Migrating from pre-v1.3’ as stated in Jeffrey_Moore’s post).
Are you running Roon as root or another user?

Three limestone monoliths have been laid to mark the path to Shropshire's first burial mound in 5,000 years.
The monoliths were put in place in the grounds of Soulton Hall, Wem, yesterday, as part of a wider scheme to create the long barrow next year.
The limestone features, each weighing a couple of tonnes, stand approximately 12 feet high and six feet wide, and are the first step in the building of the Soulton Long Barrow by Sacred Stones Ltd and the Ashton family.
Inspired by those built by prehistoric ancestors, it will house cremation ashes and will provide an alternative venue for funerals and commemorations.
One person to express an interest in having their ashes there is Pauline Dee, Shropshire councillor for Wem.
She said: “When I was first approached about the proposed barrow at Soulton, it instantly struck a chord with me and I thought what a great idea it was.
"I love Wem and the countryside round it and would so much like for this to be my final resting place. The barrow appeals to me as a place of peace, beautifully constructed by craftsmen in a very natural setting.
Tim Ashton, of Soulton Hall, added: "It's hugely exciting to be one of the first farmers to build a long barrow in modern times.

Good Morning! I hope you had a great weekend. Our weekend was pleasant - I slept in until 10:00 Saturday morning. I guess I needed the sleep but I really hate when I do that. I enjoy my early mornings, I can linger over a nice cup of coffee while enjoying the peace and quiet because the kids are still sleeping. Oh well - it did make Saturday go by way to quickly but it was still a good weekend.

DETROIT -- Ford Motor Co. said Bob Shanks, its CFO since 2012, will retire at year end and be replaced by Tim Stone, a 20-year veteran at Amazon and former CFO of Snap Inc., the parent company of popular phone app Snapchat.
The move is part of series of global changes announced Thursday that include new presidents of Ford's European operations and international markets group.
Stone, 52, will join Ford next month as a company officer and will become CFO on June 1. He will report directly to CEO Jim Hackett.
Shanks, 66, joined Ford in 1977 and was previously CFO at Mazda Motor Corp. He'll stay on through year end to assist on special projects, Ford said. His departure had been expected.
"Bob will leave a remarkable 42-year legacy at Ford," Hackett said in a statement. "As a CFO, he's been relentless in driving for results and pushing the company to greater heights. He's also been a wonderful colleague who leads with integrity, warmth and humor. Bob's leadership was integral to Ford's comeback during the Great Recession, and he has been an invaluable partner as we transform Ford to succeed in the next era."
Stone has a background in the tech sector, which could suit Ford well as it tries to redefine itself as an auto and a mobility company. Stone said he's familiar with Ford because his family drove Explorers and Ford vans, and his father used Ford vehicles in his work as a general contractor and plumber.
"He was a key player in the incredible success at Amazon and he understands the principles of fitness and growth as complementary virtues for Ford's future," Hackett said.
Peter Fleet, president of international markets group, will retire. The international markets group is a new business unit that Ford will begin reporting financial results for on Jan. 1. It covers about 100 markets, including operations in Africa, ASEAN, Australia, India, Mexico, Middle East, New Zealand and South Korea.
Fleet, 51, has held roles in Ford marketing, sales and service, and global business operations. Most recently, he was Ford's president of Asia Pacific.
He'll be replaced April 1 by Mark Ovenden, president Ford Middle East & Africa. He'll report to Jim Farley, Ford's president of global markets.
Stuart Rowley, 51, COO for Ford North America, will replace Steven Armstrong as president of Ford of Europe. Armstrong will become chairman of Ford of Europe.
In his new role, Armstrong, 54, will oversee key transformation projects and joint venture partner interactions for the region, as well as lead Ford's engagement with European governments on key industry legislation and issues, the automaker said.
Both men will report to Farley, and the moves are effective April 1, Ford said.
Birgit Behrendt, 59, vice president, joint ventures, alliances and commercial affairs in Europe, will retire at the end of March. In her role, she helped establish Ford's global alliance with Volkswagen. She'll continue to be a member of the Ford Werke Supervisory Board. Ford did not name a successor.

Hong Kong (CNN Business) The death of a Canadian entrepreneur has left a huge stash of cryptocurrencies locked off from the people who own them.
Manyof the digital currencies held by Quadriga arestored offline in accounts known as “cold wallets,” a way of protecting them from hackers. Cotten appears to have been the only person with access to the wallets, according to court documents cited by Canadian media and posted online by cryptocurrency news site CoinDesk.
Cotten’s death has plunged Quadriga into crisis and left it struggling to figure out how to refund more than 100,000 of its users.
Quadriga also owes about 70 million Canadian dollars ($53 million)in cash that it’s unable to pay back, she said, citing difficulties accessing funds through the traditional banking system.
Quadriga and a lawyer representing Robertson didn’t immediately respond to requests seeking comment late Monday.
A court hearing on Quadriga’s financial difficulties is scheduled for Tuesday in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

One of our favorite vacation spots to take our kids over the years has been Keystone, Colorado. Our favorite time to go to Keystone is in the summer, although we have been there several times in the winter as well (but after my husband tore his ACL while skiing there this past February, we probably won’t be skiing again for quite some time). Summertime is truly magical in Colorado…and it is the perfect place to relax and beat the 100 degree heat that we are normally facing at home.
Going to Keystone is uber relaxing for the whole family. It is the perfect blend of adventure and tranquility. Keystone is far enough removed from the more popular tourist destinations in Summit County like Breckenridge and Vail, but there is still tons to do, especially if you are willing to drive a bit.
We normally stay a full week when we go to Keystone in the summer. We schedule one or two activities from the list below to do each day and then spend the rest of our time going on walks by the river and relaxing.
We love renting a condo in the Starfire section of the Keystone resort. Each condo we have stayed in has had a full kitchen and multiple bedrooms, giving us plenty of space and allowing us to only have to eat out at the most once per day. We also love the proximity of the Starfire condominiums to our favorite secluded walking trail. Wild Irishman and Soda Springs would also be good locations for condos that might be slightly less expensive. The town of Dillon, Colorado is literally 7 minutes away and there are several hotel options there as well!
:: Go on nature walks and short hikes.
There is an amazing and secluded trail along the river just steps from the condo where we love to stay. It is a dirt path and is one of our favorite places to stroll, stopping to throw rocks in the river and make boats out of bark. There is also a trail in the River Run area the goes behind the gondola and around the side of the mountain that is beautiful for nature walks.
:: Spend the day at Breckenridge Epic Discovery.
We love Alpine Slides (go here for proof)! And Breckenridge has the BEST Alpine slides and they also have TONS more for kids and adults alike at the Breckenridge Epic Discovery. From ziplines to bungee trampolines, roller coasters to tubing, you can spend an entire day having fun on the Breckenridge mountain. And Breckenridge is just a 20-minute drive from Keystone!
:: Take a ride on the Georgetown Loop Railroad.
This was especially thrilling when our boys were younger and in their “train phase”. The Georgetown Loop Railroad is historic and iconic. Going on the train is worth it just the get to see (and ride across) the Devil’s Gate High Bridge, an iconic bridge in the Rockies.
You can also take a mine tour mid-way through the train ride. The tour takes about an hour (2 1/2 hours total with the train ride). But please be advised that children under 5 are not allowed to participate in the mine tour. Because we have always had a child under 5, we have not done the mine tour yet!
We went white water rafting several years ago when our boys were 3 and 5 (it was more of a float than whitewater rafting – our three year old fell asleep)! In all honesty, Keystone is not the ideal place to whitewater raft…the closest place is about a 1.5-hour drive. But it makes for a super fun day trip if you don’t make it to the mountains very often. We traveled to Buena Vista, which was a beautiful and scenic 1.5 hour drive (one way). You can sign up for rafting with Keystone Resort or even in Breckenridge that will transport you, but we knew our kids would be more comfortable riding in our own vehicle (with the DVD player) rather than a bus with other passengers. There are several companies that offer whitewater rafting, but we chose The Adventure Company and had a fun experience! We want to go back again and do more adventurous rapids now that our kids are older!
:: Take a gondola ride up to the top of Keystone Mountain.
The view from the top of Keystone mountain is breathtaking. There is also a restaurant at the top to eat at (beware: the prices are high). We have taken picnic lunches to the top, enjoyed the views, and hiked around. If you are early enough in the season, you an also go tubing at the top of the mountain with the snow that is left over! They normally close this down in mid-July, but we were lucky enough to do it on their very last day one year!
:: Feed the chipmunks on Swan Mountain.
There is a parking area on Swan Mountain (between Keystone and Breckenridge) where you can take a trail to an amazing overlook. Take some sunflower seeds with you and you will find a plethora of friendly chipmunks waiting for a snack. This simple activity ended up being one of our kids’ favorite things!
**Safety note**: Many caution against feeding chipmunks as they can spread disease. From my limited research, this seems to be a danger at lower elevations where fleas and ticks can affect the chipmunks. If you choose to do this, do it at your own risk.
Lake Dillon (also known as the Dillon Reservoir) is truly spectacular. It is one of the most beautiful places in Summit County. There is a walking/biking path around the lake and you can even rent sailboats! We love having a picnic in Dillon overlooking the lake.
:: Go to the Dillon Farmer’s Market.
As mentioned previously, the town of Dillon (just off of 1-70) is just about 7 minutes away from Keystone. They have an AMAZING farmer’s market every Saturday morning in the summer! Not only is there tons of produce and handmade items from various artisans, there is also normally live music and some fun activities for kids! We enjoyed this giant hamster wheel!
On the other side of the Interstate of the town of Dillon is the town of Silverthorne (I have no idea why two towns that are literally right next to eachother have separate names, but that is neither here nor there). Behind the Silverthorne Recreation Center is the most amazing park we have ever been to (except for perhaps the park next to the Space Needle in Seattle). This park is HUGE and there is also a skateboard park adjacent to it.
We normally save the Keystone Stables Dinner Wagon Ride for our last night in Colorado as it is one of our very favorite things to do! You leave Keystone Resort on a bus for 15-minute ride into the mountains, as far as the paved road will take you. You then get out and board a horse-drawn wagon (or horse-drawn sleigh in the winter) that takes you where motor vehicles are no longer allowed. The view in the Soda Ridge Valley is absolutely breathtaking and the history of the homestead is so neat! After eating a delicious meal, you can enjoy camp songs around a bonfire, throwing horseshoes, and exploring! It truly feels like you are in a different time!
Writing this post and seeing our pictures from over the years makes me want to go back! We have been many beautiful places as a family, but Keystone will always be one of very favorites!!!
I have NOT been compensated for this post in any way- every place I have mentioned is solely because we have been there and enjoyed it!

Australian wine producers – Looks can be deceiving, the old adage goes. It’s true: The outside is not a very reliable indicator of our inward nature. Sometimes the outward is the opposite the inward. But that doesn’t stop us from being a people who are strongly influenced by what we see.
Lets apply this saying on a wine perspective. For many years, I had a general prejudice against Australian wine. I was under the impression that many of the wines were designed to give you hair on your chest.
However Australia is all about cool-climate, boutique vineyards, diverse terroirs and elegant wines?. Are we really in Australia?
Penfolds is without a doubt one of the most, if not the most famous and iconic Australian producer. It has a established worldwide reputation not only from its range of wine ranges and continued history of winemaking in Australia.
St Henri is a nEuropean expression of shiraz, and an intriguing counterpoint to Grange. It is rare among high quality Australian red wines as it does not rely on any new oak. Released for the first time by Penfolds in the early 1950s (first commercial vintage 1957), it gained fame in the 1990s as its quality and distinctive style became better known.
A beautiful nose more Rhone alike than Australian displaying nuances of licorices, confit violets. Minty with an animal edge. The best of the old and new world.
Bin 138 is modelled after the wines of Southern Rhône, where Shiraz, Grenache and Mourvedre are blended to create an amazing wine. Every year the fruit for Bin 138 is sourced from old Barossa Valley vines (100 years old++) and aged for 12 to 15 months in large oak barrels to allow the unique expression of each varietal. The first vintage release of this varietal blend was the 1992, then called ‘Old Vine Barossa Valley’ – it was then promoted to Bin status for the 1998 vintage.
Complex nose reminiscent of menthol, dark blue fruits with an spicy and herbal edge. On the palate, spicy with fine tannins and a very elegant finale.
The famous Barossa wine region is about an hour away north of Adelaide, South Australia’s capital and it is here that the Peter Lehmann Wines winery was built in 1979. The first vintage was made in 1980 and in 1982 the winery was formally named Peter Lehmann Wines. From then on, the wines have been marketed under the Peter Lehmann Wines label.
Famous in Australia as the “Baron of the Barossa”, Lehmann was loved by local grape growers as the hero who rescued their industry and lifestyle.Some 140 growers committed their fruit to his winery and his “weighbridge” became the spot where the local farmers would gather around every harvest time to swap stories over bottles of wine and platters of pickles, cheese and slices of mettwurst.
Lehmann’s contribution to the industry was acknowledged in 2009 with an International Wine Challenge Lifetime Achievement Award and he became the first Australian wine industry figure to be appointed to the Order of Australia.
Not long ago, I recently had a chance to meet its chief winemaker Nigel Westblade. A quirky winemaker with a profound knowledge of Australian wine. Together we tasted several wines of Peter Lehmann such as the Portrait 2013, Barossa Shiraz 2016 and Stonewell Shiraz 2013. The invitation was a courtesy of its Canadian Importer Galleon.
Sourced from multiple sites of the Barossa Valley, taking full advantage of the variety’s multiple characteristics. Aged in a blend of American and French oak. A quite elegant and balanced Barossa Cabernet with classic varietal aromas of cassis and blackberry. Racy in the palate with a lingering finish.
A high quality Shiraz crafted from selected parcels in the Barossa Valley. Fermented and macerated on skins for up to two weeks, with partial fermentation. Afterwards the wine matures in a mix of French and American oak for 12 months prior to bottling.
Deep and penetrating aromas of jammy black fruit, spices and eucalyptus. Structured and balanced yet very complex in the finale with a silky finish.
The name Stonewell was chosen in recognition of the high quality shiraz grapes being grown around Stonewell Road in the Marananga district of the Barossa. The fruit of this Shiraz comes from four fabled vineyards: The Obbiettivo Home Block, Bethany Unit Trust Keil Block, Wayne Falkenberg Home and Roesler Home.
Smoky with complex animal notes. Very Northern Rhone alike with a singular note of black olive tapenade. Fresh with a polished mouthfeel and lingering finale.

New business is an agency's lifeblood. It's also its sweat and tears, to quote the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising (IPA).
Everyone involved wants a positive outcome from any agency pitch process and, like any successful project, pitches need to be well planned to avoid wasting time and money. But, is this process as mutually rewarding as it might be?
From a client's perspective, the reason to pitch is often the result of something going wrong and the urgent necessity to change and improve. From an agency perspective, the pitch process can be disruptive as it creates additional work and takes staff away from servicing their existing accounts.
Pitches are a huge investment for any agency with a one in 3 to 4 chance of winning. To have a chance of winning we need to conduct research, become experts in the brand we are pitching for and come up with strategic and tactical ideas in 3 to 4 weeks, without much client involvement.
The work would normally take months to do properly when working with a brand team. An average pitch costs about £3,000 in outside costs if we do the research in-house and about £25,000 in terms of time costs, according to Louisa Pau, chair of the IPA Healthcare Group and managing director of Woolley Pau.
To meet corporate guidelines about re-pitching for business every couple of years.
If not apparent, the agency should try to uncover the underlying motivation for the pitch. This allows them to anticipate the needs of their potential client and target their pitch accordingly.
The success of the pitch process comes down to good planning and strong communication, in addition to clarity of thought, transparency and trust. Dialogue is vitally important when appointing a new agency to gain top-line credentials and ensure that conflicts of interest are identified at the earliest stage. It is also a good opportunity to explore the likelihood that people will gel.
Companies used to working with agencies usually have standard operating procedures and should communicate these to the agencies involved. That said, winning agencies tend to identify themselves early by asking about these processes upfront. This enables the agency to plan their next steps and meet those fundamental needs in an agreed framework.
Agencies that stand out are those that ask how they got invited on to the pitch list. Was it down to what the client has read about them in advertising directories or on the internet? Was it from a recommendation - if so from whom and when? Was it from past experience? Was it that enjoyable beer at the last PM Society Awards or the funky mailing that landed, at an opportune moment, on the client's desk?
Agencies should also endeavour to understand who drew up the pitch list - was it a team or individual decision? This could influence how and who they liaise with on the client side.
Winning agencies also strive to find out who they are pitching against - knowing this, they can better differentiate themselves on pitch day.
Every opportunity in front of a client is one to impress, but when does an 'informal conversation' turn into a 'formal pitch'? As soon as they know they are on the pitch list, winning agencies tend to ask why, how and who put them there. By asking intelligent and pertinent questions agencies demonstrate that they want to understand and satisfy their (potential) client's needs.
Creativity and business skills should not be mutually exclusive and as much as the pitch process facilitates the agency illustrating their creative ability, there are massive opportunities for them to substantiate how good their business skills are as well. If agencies approach their own business in a professional and competent manner, it provides huge reassurance to the client that their account will be serviced to the same exacting standards.
Agencies should expect a written brief of what is required for the pitch, detailing what the agencies will be measured on and what elements they will need to demonstrate to win the pitch.
This insight will allow them to emphasise the right examples (ie, purchasing triggers) at the pitch. Phil Bartlett, group account director at Saatchi & Saatchi Healthcare, notes: You can't start a journey until you're clear where you want to end up. As a result, a written pitch brief should be as clear and concise as possible about the problem or opportunity (point A) and the desired outcome (point B). The successful agency will be the one that works out the best way of getting between the two.
Agencies should be told how long the process is and how long they have to prepare. If the timings are too short for an agency to do their best, they should let the client know - otherwise the process could be perceived as a waste of time for both parties. Granted, clients may want to test how potential agencies can operate under pressure, but it needs to be realistic. Rushing a pitch through does not necessarily demonstrate the ability to operate under pressure any better than an agency's ability to confidently and successfully negotiate a more suitable timeline that is mutually acceptable.
This all comes down to understanding who has the balance of power, which links back to whether the agency understands fully the reason why they were invited on the pitch list. Agencies tend to be there for a unique reason and winning agencies understand what that reason is.
The pitch process is a journey and different passengers will get involved at different times. All agencies (at least I hope it's not just us) lose more pitches than they win. The likelihood of rejection always outweighs the alluring prospect of vindication. It's exciting but mostly it's bruising on the ego. And it's rarely a pure battle of ideas with the best concept declared champion. There are always other factors - existing relationships, political issues - involved in the decision. This, oddly, helps to keep me sane. Knowing it's 'not fair' when we lose and 'not fair' when we win puts both outcomes in perspective, says Dean Woolley, creative director at Woolley Pau.
On balance, I'd prefer never to have to pitch. It's a distorted version of the client-agency working relationship - and if the competitive set-up is somehow intended to make us lift our game, it's not necessary. If anything, I am more on my mettle presenting new campaigns to existing clients; the fear of letting down people with whom I have built a relationship is more of a spur for me than the fear of coming second in a four-ticket lottery.
organisation) and what role they have in the pitch process. Will they have a medical or a sales hat on, a purchasing remit or be part of the marketing team? Who is brand savvy and who is less conversant with marketing jargon? Who in the team can say yes, how many of the team can say no. Who wants to be there and who is just there for the ride? What kind of questions will they ask at the pitch and why? More importantly for the agency, who from their side is best placed to answer them?
Different firms have different ways of assessing the agency pitch: some are very rigid and well proven, some more nebulous and evolving. The client should be as transparent as possible about what thought process will be used to assess the creative, and the agency should not be afraid to explore this early in the process.
You don't want to give the answers before the test so it is unlikely that any client will be that transparent (they may not even know what it is in their own mind), but winning agencies may have second-guessed what the client wants.
Any agency will tell you that the winning 'big idea' is based on sound strategic insight, but how often does the winning pitch actually end up as the final campaign? Once the medical department, the customer insight department and marketing have reflected upon it, it is a very different incarnation of what won the account. This is the true strategic insight - which takes time to attain - that leads to the approved campaign.
Back to the pitch: the creative is only one element - it is tangible and the marketing team can interrogate and critique it, but often it is the more emotive reasons that lead to one agency being selected over another. The reputation, the people, the slickness of their overall offering, the way they managed the purchasing department, the recommendation from the boss, and yes, even that beer at last year's PM Society awards.
However, the creative product is often the most prominent and is vulnerable to post-rationalisation; hijacked as the basis for the win/lose decision rather than the more emotional reasons for wanting to work with a particular team. Winning agencies need to tap into this and the better they anticipate it, the easier they may find it to influence the pitch process.
Pitch days must be nerve-wracking for agencies, but they can also be nerve-wracking for clients. Like any appraisal, there should be few surprises. In the lead up to pitch, the client and agency should have liaised when appropriate and both parties should be familiar with each other, and have a fairly good understanding of what the other wants and will provide. According to VÈronique Walsh, deputy managing director at Sanofi Pasteur MSD: Agencies that stand out for me are those that demonstrate they can bring added value to the strategic thinking and adapt their campaign to answer the specific needs of the final customer.
Winning agencies stand out on pitch day as they know what they want to say and how they plan to say it - they have asked themselves the right questions after reading the brief and have asked specific, insightful questions of the client in the days running up to pitch. They have brought in the right people to be the face of the agency and potentially service the account. Whoever the most senior person from the agency is, the client is sure that, if needed, that person will address issues surrounding the account even though they will not service it daily.
Successful agencies also stand out because they have rehearsed. This preparation goes a long way in convincing potential clients that the agency takes pride in its work and considers this pitch win an important one. Winning agencies have prepared a presentation that tells a congruent story based on intelligence, where all attending agency people contribute at the right time and at an appropriate level; above all everyone appears to be singing confidently and clearly from the same text - this clarity and belief counts for a lot.
Winning agencies have made a choice to either sell one big idea or bring a whole range of creative executions. While this is somewhat dependant on the brief, it is always impressive to see an agency pitch one big idea with such enthusiasm and lucidity. After all, it is easier for a client to remember one thing than many - this can help agencies stand out.
Finally, winning agencies consider the use of gimmicks and props to illustrate their pitch: would agency branding items and gimmicks support the pitch and the positioning of the agency? Does the agency need to rely on give-aways for the audience to remember them?
At the end of pitch, the client will make their decisions in a multitude of ways, formally or informally, emotionally or (post)-rationally, quickly or slowly. Whatever the outcome, every agency - whether successful or not - should expect thanks and feedback. It is always intriguing to see whether the non-appointed agencies learn from the process and change as a result of what was fed back to them. Equally, it is just as interesting to see whether the winning agency enquires as to what it did that was right, so that it can replicate this in the future.

Confession time: I just came across Tragic Allies the other day, so, obviously I know virtually nothing about them other than the fact that they were discovered by Killah Priest, dropped a couple (maybe?) of mixtapes and released their debut album, The Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil, in 2011.
They are a three-man group consisting of Purpose, Estee Nack and Codenine. Purpose not only raps, but he also produces, and he steps behind the boards for a bunch of tracks on The Tree of Knowledge of Good & Evil, an album that features guest appearances from Killah Priest, Bronze Nazareth and Planet Asia.
Tragic Allies are an old-school type group, bringing a 90s feel to hip-hop similar to what some of the Wu-Tang offshoots offer/offered (which makes sense, because Killah Priest did discover them).
For that reason, I can already see the more devout hip-hop heads gravitating toward this trio, if not only for that, but also because of the fact that they sound nothing like the bullcrap that saturates the radio today.
Again, I literally just found these dudes this week, so let's just jump right into the review.
Things don't exactly get off to a good start here. The beat, laced by Crucial The Guillotine (doesn't that name just sound so Wu-Tangish?), grates on the eardrums, as the vocal sample (something I am usually rather fond of) is just overkill. This also crawls a bit too much for my liking.
This is better. Purpose pulls a page out of Bronze Nazareth's book here and crafts a slow-paced instrumental consisting of some deliberate horns and a vocal sample. The production does does get a bit repetitive after a while, but the music is solid. Also, Planet Asia makes a guest appearance, and he does "God Gifted" justice.
DJ Woool (doesn't that name just sound so not Wu-Tangish?) is on the boards for "War Melody," and the result is a really freaking boring beat. This really could have used heavier drums (only Roc Marciano and The Alchemist can pull off the sparse drum-type instrumentals). The raps are good, but the production is just not nearly engaging enough to keep my interest.
A dude named Kevalowski puts together this beat, and like Purpose two songs ago, he does his best Bronze Nazareth impression. This was pretty good, possessing a grimy feel thanks to the instrumental and the subject matter of the rhymes by all three MCs. "Fallin' Starz" is the best track here so far, but I'm still hoping the energy picks up a little bit more as the album progresses.
This time, Street Science steps behind the boards for the production, and the finished product is pretty solid. The beat consists of an ominous piano riff and some semi-hard drums (they could have been harder, though), and Tragic Allies are able to match its dreary atmosphere. Six tracks in on The Tree of Knowledge, I know one thing for sure: these dudes are raw.
Alright; now I'm positively sure that this album is headed in the right direction. This DJ Kryptonite-produced record freaking knocks. The instrumental is the best one on the project thus far, containing what sounds like a really dope Spanish sample and some banging drums to boot. Not only that, but the lyrics are really great, too. "Street Narrative" is just very dope overall.
This cut has a pretty cool name, as it is obviously a play on Mobb Deep's classic "Survival of The Fittest" (it also works in a vocal sample from it at the end). This song isn't nearly as good as Mobb Deep's, but it's still good, nonetheless. While Purpose's production isn't anything mind-blowing, it is extremely hard, and it suits the group perfectly. I really liked the hook on here, too.
Crucial The Guillotine gets another chance here after that debacle of a first beat, and although his work on "In The Air" is not what I would call spectacular, it's much better than what he did on "A.L.L.I.E.S." Plus, Tragic Allies rip this instrumental so thoroughly that you'll eventually find yourself focusing on their raps rather than the production. That's always a good thing. The only complaint I would have is that the beat plays on for far too long at the end.
I'm gonna be blunt with you: this song was so morbid that I couldn't even get through the whole thing.
60 Second Assassin makes a guest appearance here, and you know what? It was a waste, but what did you expect from an interlude?
I give Tragic Allies credit for touching on very delicate subjects and doing so very elegantly, but man...this album is just getting depressing. Also, an R&B hook on a project like this? Really?
The second the vocal sample kicks in at the beginning, you're bound to go crazy. This is freaking awesome. A producer named Bug (I know, but who cares what his name is with an instrumental like this?) creates the beat for "Picture Perfect," and good Lord did he make a head-nodder. Killah Priest drops by to lay down a verse, and his appearance was definitely refreshing.
Mr. Morals (who probably has no morals) laces the production for "Riots In The Streets," and he kills it with that Thelma Houston sample. I would have liked to hear some drums on this, as Mr. Morals decides to just let the sample ride, but this was still good regardless, even if the song's title kind of insinuates that this is supposed to contain a much more aggressive beat. It also helps that Tragic Allies freaking rip this.
This is the best song on the album. No freaking question. Crucial The Guillotine puts down the instrumental here, and upon hearing his production on "Rap Quotables," you'll wonder just what was going through his mind when he made the beat for "A.L.L.I.E.S.," because this beat is absolutely outstanding. I could seriously listen to this on a loop all day. It's that great.
Decent, but coming after "Rap Quotables," I wasn't overly impressed.
Bronze Nazareth stops in to drop a verse on this cut, and he does a very fine job. This is solid, and while it wasn't the best way to close out the album, it certainly wasn't the worst.
Overall, I was impressed by Tragic Allies. The three of them are incredibly gifted rappers cut right from the Wu-Tang cloth, and their collective persona is grimy to a T (that's a good thing just in case you didn't know).
I won't lie and say that The Tree of Knowledge is a thoroughly consistent listen, because it isn't. Some of the production on here is just okay, and including two songs about grim death ("The Thought of Dying" and "Drown," with "Drown" being about suicide) is a bit unpleasant to say the least, even if the records were straight from the heart (and they were).
Still, even taking those little critiques into account, this is a good album. A few of the songs on here have incredible replay value, and sometimes, Purpose, Estee Nack and Codenine are so exceptional on the mic that they significantly elevate tracks with otherwise average production.
I would definitely recommend giving The Tree of Knowledge a spin, as I'm sure most of you will find something to like (especially the Wu-Tang fans). I've also been convinced to check out some of their other work myself. They don't have a very extensive discography, either, so it won't take too long.
Hopefully, these guys stick around, as there is obvious talent and potential here.

On Jan. 6, the WSWS carried yet another polemic against us, the second one in a week. This one came with a purple prose title, “Adam Haig responds to Alex Steiner’s burst of outrage”.
Burst of outrage? This same Haig had four days earlier posted a 17-page attack on us in which he baldly declared that we “cannot be regarded as Marxist-Trotskyists”, claimed that we reject the materialist conception of history, are skeptical about the revolutionary role of the working class and much else.
We posted a brief response (a little over a page in length) on our website blog in which we pointed out that most of the essay was devoted to using Herbert Marcuse as a straw man and that much of the rest of it brought in irrelevant material regarding Erich Fromm and Slavoj Žižek.
There was no “burst of outrage” in what we wrote. It is true that we called the title of Haig’s piece pretentious and we characterized his ruminations on Fromm and Žižek as the kind of padding a clever graduate student would engage in, but this is pretty routine stuff in the cut-and-thrust of polemical debate, and given what we were dealing with, it was eminently fair comment. By any objective measure, our criticisms of Haig were a good deal more restrained than his accusations against us.
But that isn’t how Haig saw it. Our brief note enraged him and he vented his anger in a new posting which the WSWS editors were only too happy to run (a point we will come back to). In this latest posting we are accused of writing an “angry response”, of making “several outrageous charges” in our brief note, and that we are supposedly “intent on discrediting the ICFI.” Steiner, “in his hysteria,” apparently “employs a deceitful use of quotation marks”. Later we are told that Steiner “exploded” and later still that Steiner “has no capacity for logical argumentation.” The piece winds up by consigning us to the garbage heap of history (having “embraced Herbert Marcuse, Freudo-Marxism, and Utopia … it is fairly clear where they [i.e. Steiner and Brenner] will end up”).
I also was struck by the violent imagery of Haig's rebuke, and was surprised that the WSWS published it. I once admired the SEP for filling a desperate need in our political culture -- for raising the level of discussion and treating its critics with some measure of respect. So much for all that, apparently.
In the final analysis, however, it seems to me that what is of paramount importance is not what the SEP has said to Comrades Steiner and Brenner, but what they have not said.
The central argument in the polemical material produced by Steiner and Brenner, in my view, is the charge that the Socialist Equality Party has abandoned dialectics. "Dialectics is a dead letter in the IC," they wrote in "Objectivism or Marxism." "The movement hasn't produced a single article on dialectical philosophy in 20 years ... the abandonment of dialectics has also meant the abandonment of the struggle against pragmatism."
No one -- not David North, nor the Talbots, nor Haig -- no one has addressed this charge, which is serious, legitimate and important. It is entirely within the bounds of Marxist polemics to raise such an issue.
What does the SEP have to say to a worker or student today about dialectics, a difficult philosophical concept that provides the very foundation of classical Marxism? Where are the lectures?
For North to refute this charge he needs only to cite a substantial body of work published on the World Socialist Web Site in the last 10 years on dialectics -- its origins, the dialectical method, its applicability to the present situation.
North cannot do so, and will not, because no such body of work exists. Or, if it does, it has not been published for the benefit of the workers and students who must be exposed to the subject ... no, not just exposed to it, but immersed in it, and master it. The closest anyone in the SEP has come was Nick Beams lobbing the suggestion in 2002 to a reader that he make a study of Engles' "Anti-Duhring."
The SEP’s degeneration is embodied by the fact of the obvious evasions and diversions in response to Comrades Steiner and Brenner, the smear campaign it has launched against them, and -- most of all -- silence on the vital questions.
The following is an "open letter" to the World Socialist Website ( www.wsws.org ). Portions of this letter were previously submitted to the WSWS via email.
Simply stated, I am appalled by attacks upon the Permanent Revolution website ( permanent-revolution.org ) by staff and others at the World Socialist Website. Given the seriousness of the current economic crisis these attacks are the moral equivalent of Nero's lamenting the destruction of Troy while the city of Rome was being destroyed.
Those who support the World Socialist Website cite the "scientific" nature of Marxism to justify their attacks. The question is, are the conclusions of the WSWS correct?
1. Scientific, because Marxism strives to eliminate the, "...anarchy in social production..."
2. Utopian, because, "...universal emancipation is the historical mission of the modern proletariat."
Engels then told us that the "universal emancipation" of the working classes will take place because, "..as anarchy in social production vanishes, the political authority of the state dies out."
What then, is the ultimate Marxist goal? Is it, political power? Is it, socialism? The answer to both of these questions is, no.
Both Marx and Engels clearly state that the ultimate goal of Marxism is, as Marx says, "the withering away" of the state. That is, an end to all "political authority."
What then, is the Marxist mission? Engels clearly states that the Marxist mission is, "...to impart to the new oppressed proletarian class a full knowledge of the conditions and of the meaning of the momentous act it is called upon to accomplish.."
What is the "momentous act" or mission of the proletariat? As previously stated, that mission is "universal emancipation" which is to say - universal freedom.
Stated another way, the Marxist mission is to summon the working classes to their mission. Those classes are responsible for the worldwide liberation of all humanity.
The ultimate Marxist goal is, therefore, not merely the acquisition of political power. Nor is it socialism. Both are simply the means to an end. The ultimate Marxist goal is - freedom.
The obvious question is, how can the individual members of the working classes be summoned to their mission? The answer is equally obvious - through education.
To deny the need for an informed proletariat is to deny Marxist ideology. To fail to reach out to the proletariat is for Marxists the very definition of failure.
To deny the utopian nature of Marxism is to be a mere socialist, not a Marxist and certainly not a Trotskyite.
Earlier I posed the question, "...are the conclusions of the WSWS correct?" I can only conclude that those conclusions are not correct.
Following the polemics' debate from its inception makes me conclude that the ICFI fears Steiner's and Brenner's attack; the space and energy they devote to it, the personnel - three others at the ICFI are conscripted as experts to respond to esoteric by-products of the polemic - involved, the venom produced in changing a polemical controversy into a personal one,attempting to make Steiner and Brenner non-persons, the outrageous printing of a disgusting letter to the ICFI accusing Steiner and Brenner of being Fascists (the letter was quickly deleted)all point to a fear that Steiner and Brenner's arguments have merit, thus the bringing out the heavy artillery - there is nothing like the danger posed by the 'virus' within, it has to be stamped out immediately.
It strikes me that North has encountered a situation where his intellectual firepower is equaled or is surpassed by that of Steiner and Brenner, thus the vituperation. He's frightened.
I look forward to continuing installments of this ongoing argument; I'm fascinated.
The heavyweights are in the ring.
He leído el artículo extenso de Adam Haig, Steiner, Brenner and Neo-Marxism: The Marcusean Component.
Es indudable que la erudición de Haig corre parejas con la de los hermanos Talbot. Solo que no refuta de ninguna manera uno solo de los puntos de Alex Steiner- y Fred Brenner: objetivismo, abstencionismo del SEP,la primacía del periodismo objetivista en el WSWS y ninguna atención a la construcción material del partido, el abstencionismo en México, la falta de trabajo del wsws en la filosofía del marxismo, la defensa nacionalista de Irak, falta de programa de transición y trabajo marxista en los sindicatos, como en el de los transportes en Nueva York, la crítica de Lenin a Plejánov sobre la teoría del onocimiento marxista,etc.
No hay una sola palabra sobre estos problemas. Por el contrario se ve que Haig aparece muy versado en Marcusse, en Voronsky, en Plejánov, etc. todo eso está muy bien. Pero no hay una sola palabra sobre los problemas planteados por Steiner y Brenner.
El SEP no ha penetrado aún en el real trabajo crítico de Steiner y Brenner. Considero que este trabajo es de importancia decisiva para la comprensión del socialismo y de cómo debe entenderse el desarrollo de la conciencia socialista en la clase obrera. Es un trabajo de marxistas-trotskistas que apelan a todos los desarrollos que enriquezcan la todopoderosa cosmovisión del socialismo científico- incluido el socialismo utópico y de todos los pensadores y escuelas que puedan contribuir a ello. Esta labor es materialista- dialéctica, que utiliza la ley del salto dialéctico cualitativo: superar y conservar al mismo tiempo.
El SEP tiene mucho trabajo que hacer asimilando la valiosísima contribución de Steiner y Brenner, quienes no han recurrido ni a la mala fe ni a la difamación ni al maltrato, como en cambio si lo ha hecho la dirección del SEP.
Hay mucha tela que cortar en relación al artículo de Adam Haig, por que creo que el artículo de Steiner y Brenner Of sterile flowers, poisonous weeds and a political smokescreen sintetiza lo esencial.
have drifted into the anti-Marxist orbit of the petty-bourgeois Frankfurt School of Critical Theory and that they cannot be regarded as Marxist-Trotskyists. This is not demonization, but a well-grounded assessment of their theoretical and political conceptions. Their polemics—e.g, “Objectivism or Marxism” (2006), Marxism without Its Head or Its Heart (2007), and “On the Vulgar Critique of Vulgar Materialism” (2008)—betray an eclectic radical intellectual tradition that is decisively non-Marxist in political and philosophical orientation.
Esta declaración no está probada- conforme al rigor que exige la dialéctica. Haig debería ingresar al centro de los textos que cita y comprobar que ellos no son marxistas. Pero no lo hace porque con esta sola declaración pasa de largo.
Esta cita la hacen ustedes en su último artículo contra Walsh.
Estoy convencido que se puede estudiar- con el psicoanálisis- los problemas de una persona individualmente considerada, al mismo tiempo que el marxismo nos da el marco teórico general adecuado para entender los problemas de cada individuo. Es lo mismo que cuando aceptamos la teoría evolutiva de Darwin lo hacemos bajo la perspectiva del salto dialéctico revolucionario del mono al hombre y la transición de la cantidad de modificaciones animales hasta su cambio cualitativo.
No estoy de acuerdo con esta afirmación de Haig. El psicoanálisis es un método científico experimental y cuantitativo. Ya los griegos hablaban de la catarsis a través de la palabra.
Reproducían en el teatro todos los complejos del pueblo, con temas que él los conocía para producir la purificación.Cuando Egisto y Clitemnestra asesinan a Agamenón no sólo está presente su condición de esclavistas sino las pasiones y aberraciones de éstos para mantener el poder. Cuando una persona deposita su confianza- mediante el relato de sus problemas y el origen de ellos- a otra persona, se produce la curación. Por eso talvez la confesión religiosa católica tiene tanta fuerza desde la época feudal hasta nuestros días.
Esta conclusión de Plejánov me parece muy ambigua. Olvida que la principal fuerza productiva es el hombre mismo. La naturaleza humana del hombre es la de ser productivo: las fuerzas productivas no son otra cosa que el cuerpo humano del hombre, en primer lugar, y luego la extensión de ese cuerpo: las herramientas, y la forma social de reunirse para usarlas. Es decir, las relaciones sociales de producción y las fuerzas productivas son productos de la naturaleza humana, cuya función principal es producir y asociarse. Asociarse para producir. El producto mismo es un resultado de la asociación productiva.
Ningún marxista puede afirmar que socialismo y comunismo son términos intercambiables. El socialismo es sólo una etapa transitoria entre la dictadura del proletariado ( socialismo) y la sociedad sin clases (comunismo). La dictadura del proletariado- siendo todavía una máquina estatales y no es socialismo, es y no es comunismo ( en la medida que el socialismo vaya o no hacia la extinción del estado). Por lo tanto la sociedad socialista no es un sistema sin estado y peor aun una sociedad internacional sin clases.
Firstly, it is misleading to state that consciousness is a “guarantee” against bureaucratization. Political consciousness is one of the weapons to combat bureaucracy, the roots of which are material and social, not psychological. Bureaucracy is a socioeconomic-structural question and arises from the isolation of a revolution, as was the case in the Soviet Union. Even an isolated workers’ state in America can degenerate into a bureaucratic system.
Muy a menudo los marxistas- principalmente Trotsky- han afirmado que el elemento subjetivo es decisivo, lo fundamental para construir el partido revolucionario. Y el elemento subjetivo es la conciencia socialista. Por lo tanto, en un proceso revolucionario, lo esencial- de alguna manera incluso con mayor fuerza que el peso socioeconómico- es la conciencia socialista. Talvez por eso Lenin repitió ante la pregunta de qué hacer contra la burocratización: “ 1 estudiar,2 estudiar,3 estudiar” Cito de memoria pero se puede verificar que la anécdota es verdadera. Una mala racha económica la puede soportar un revolucionario consciente, el partido, la clase imbuida de conciencia socialista. No así una persona o la clase o el partido sin conciencia socialista. La fatalidad económica no depende de los individuos, pero la lucha contra ella sí. Si en lugar de Stalin y los estalinistas hubiera estado Trotsky y cuadros trotskystas, el proceso de burocratización hubiese sido combatido con energía y su resultado no hubiese sido la fatalidad del aislamiento a causa del retraso de la revolución internacional porque ésta también dependía del curso de la lucha contra el aislamiento y la ampliación de la revolución socialista a escala internacional.
La declaración de Haig está imbuida de fatalismo economicista y de confundir conciencia socialista con mera psicología. El aislamiento de un estado obrero no es una categoría fija o abstracta, sino concreta. Por tanto no es un fenómeno que se repetirá siempre y con los mismos factores. Además el aislamiento está en un contexto en que lo decisivo son los cuadros revolucionarios: Si en lugar de Kautsky y los socialdemócratas hubiesen estado Lenin y los bolcheviques en Alemania, entonces la revolución se hacía en Alemania y el aislamiento ruso no hubiese existido. Parece entonces, que la conciencia socialista- que no es simple psicología, sino una portentosa cosmovisión revolucionariaes y ha sido siempre un factor de extrema importancia.

Hi, I used Jaksta for years and then, few days ago, stopped downloading, detecting, working.
Tried to upgrade to 1.3.3 (my Mac is 10.8.5) but nothing happened.
I have a regular paid license.
I'm attachin here my log with a freshly logged YouTube video not detected and not recorded.
Both your version of Jaksta and your OS are very outdated. It would not surprise me if either one or both of these being so old were a contributing factor.
We have just recently released a new Version 2 (discounted paid upgrade for existing users) for Jaksta (now called Jaksta Media Recorder), but even in the V1.X builds 1.3.3 is not by any means new or recent.
First off, just try doing a reboot of your machine and that might reset your basic settings and bring it right.
After that, I would suggest by starting with an update to the latest V1 build we released before we moved onto V2.
If that doesn't fix it then I would suggest updating your OS. That probably needs to be done regardless, unless you have any strong feelings against it.
I had a look at your log just in case, but it seems all you have recorded is the startup process and no actual tests, so unfortunately I cannot learn anything from it.

Airlines were struggling to define business cases to invest in inflight connectivity (IFC), which has large upfront costs. For airlines, the maths didn’t appear to add up – but they were missing key parts of the equation. More cutting-edge types of IFC-based revenue generation, like ecommerce commission and digital advertising sales, were poorly understood.
No clear business case meant that airlines were dragging their feet and delaying adoption of IFC, reducing the overall addressable market. With a need to grow revenue YOY, and maximise market share in a highly competitive category, IA needed to change the global conversation about IFC – increasing demand by shifting industry perceptions about the product. From seeing IFC as an expense to seeing it as a creator of new revenue streams.
In a game-changing partnership with the London School of Economics, we developed a global thought leadership platform, ‘Sky High Economics’, that put a hard figure on the benefit of inflight broadband, enlightening the industry about the economic opportunities of the product.
The credibility of the LSE brand, and the astonishing impact of the research findings, facilitated not only significant media pick-up and amplification for the launch (engaging millions within the industry), but also generated leads.
Media activation, multi-layered content, social media distribution and sales enablement delivered a though-the-line campaign which has been credited with changing the sector forever.

Do Parents Help or Hurt College Application Essays?
I received an email from a mom recently inquiring about my tutoring services for her college-bound daughter.
In her email, she included a story about their family history that she thought might make a good topic for an essay. It was mainly about the grandfather’s immigration “coming to America” experiences and the Holocaust.
While it sounded interesting, it didn’t seem that relevant or exciting to me–at least for the purposes of an essay that’s supposed to focus mainly on the student.
