Congratulations for choosing to modernize and move your client to QuickBooks® Online Advanced. Conversion for some clients may be easier than others. This article is designed to diagnose a client’s eligibility for conversion and then to walk you through the process, step by step, with easy-to-follow checklists.
My objective here is to concentrate on the basic parameters to consider when converting. Understanding the “why” things do or don’t convert is key to understanding what the possibilities and limitations are.
Here is a link to a comprehensive outline of what to expect from the conversion tool.
As far as the conversion tool itself, most of the time the process goes pretty smoothly, but before doing this step, we need to do our homework. You may have heard a painting contractor say, “Most of the work is prep, not the paint.” Well, the same applies for us here. We must assess the client, know what will happen in the conversion process, then clean the data if necessary, and move forward.
You will need to dig into your client’s desktop file and look at the following areas.
The conversion tool will capture the weighted average of existing inventory items in desktop at the moment of conversion.
Once in QuickBooks Online, the average value will be divided by the quantity to determine the value of the first FIFO layer of that item.
You will need to decide whether to use QuickBooks Online inventory; you’ll be presented with that inventory decision by the conversion tool.
Some clients may need to continue the use of average costing.
If so, you might consider NOT turning on Inventory in QuickBooks Online and use a third-party app instead.
Negative inventory balances: If an inventory value is negative, the FIFO costing method in QuickBooks Online has no basis. QuickBooks Online will automatically value unpurchased items that have been sold. On the Inventory/Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) transaction, QuickBooks Online will assume that the average cost of the items NOT on hand is either the same average cost as the items you had on hand OR the ‘Item Cost’ from the Item List.
Here, QuickBooks Online Advanced is making its own intelligent decision, but to avoid this, it is a best practice to verify inventory balances and make sure that they are accurate. It is necessary to clean up and adjust inventory before converting to QuickBooks Online.
Accounts receivable (AR) and accounts payable (AP): Make sure the open balances are accurate and all unapplied credits are applied before conversion. Do this by checking the aging reports for both AP and AR in the desktop file, and then applying any open debit or credit memos to their respective invoices or bills.
Unbilled costs: When converting a history of either unbilled expenses, unbilled time or unbilled items, QuickBooks Online will block the ability to make the connected COA account inactive.
If there is a history of unbilled costs, unchecking the “billable” box one at a time on each transaction can be time consuming, but here’s the good news: There is a workaround in QuickBooks Desktop to clear unbilled costs in batches.
Run the “Unbilled Costs by Job” report under Reports > Customers & Receivables.
Create an Invoice for each Customer with unbilled costs.
Click the Add Time & Costs icon.
Select each tab (Time, Expenses, Mileage & Items) and check “Hide” on all unbilled costs you need removed.
That last step will clear the billable costs for that Customer. No need to save the invoice. Because we can only do this one Customer at a time, one invoice per Customer, we need to use the create invoice screen for each Customer with billable costs and follow the same steps.
You should review the “Unbilled Costs by Job” report in QuickBooks Desktop and address and unbilled expenses prior to conversion. At the time of publication, there is no “Mileage” feature in QuickBooks Online.
The “Hide Unbilled Expenses” tool will load. Choose a date. The tool will clear any unbilled costs before that date in one easy step. Now, the associated account in QBO can be made inactive.
NOTE: This tool only works with Bills, Checks and Expenses with rows marked billable. You should clear unbilled Time & Items in QuickBooks Desktop using the workaround mentioned above, and do this before conversion.
Financial Reporting history: It is a good idea to run both profit & loss (P&L) and balance sheet reports with a previous year comparison for the history of the file. The reason checking reporting history is so important is that some clients may have been using the chart of accounts in interesting ways. For example, this may include inactive accounts or sub-accounts used in lieu of classes or vendor names as sub-accounts under Subcontractor Expense.
The list of “interesting” anomalies could go on and on. Doing a little homework here will be wise, but you should carefully consider if merging these accounts is an appropriate course. It could affect prior year financial reports if you do.
Balance Sheet with Previous Year Comparison.
Profit & Loss with Previous Year Comparison.
This will give you a general feel of how the chart of accounts has been utilized over the years.
Class reporting history: If the client has a long history of class tracking, you will want to look at the data to see if there are classes that may have been used differently or improperly in the past. You should verify how classes have been used over the history of the desktop file. Inactive classes do not convert.
If necessary, use the “Reclassify Transactions” tool in QuickBooks Desktop to batch reclassify transactions to the correct one.
First check the Class list for inactive classes. Lists > Class List.
Check the box at the bottom left to show any hidden classes that are no longer in use.
Then run a report to check the history of use for each class. Reports > Company & Financial > P&L by Class. Change the date filter to “All” to view all entries posted to these accounts for the history of the file.
Review the class columns on the report. See if there are any redundant or unnecessary classes. Decide how each should be addressed and use the following options to clean up the classes.
Merge duplicates. Will reduce the number of classes that convert.
Make unused classes inactive. Will also reduce the number of classes that convert.
Condense data. This is only an option if there are some classes that were misused historically AND you only want to convert from a certain date forward. The condense tool can remove transactions and their associated “unused” class in one move.
PRO-TIP: Condensing data in QuickBooks Desktop may help. If the client does not need the entire history from a desktop edition, you can condense the data prior to conversion. This will remove transactions prior to a designated date and post an opening balance entry at that same date. When transactions are removed, the condense tool gives you the option to remove any unused list entries as well. This graphic shows which unused list entries you have the option to remove when condensing.
It is important that you review the procedures I’ve outlined above with your client. Try to determine the reasons they need, or don’t need, historical lists. Explain the conversion process and the effect on historical reporting, then suggest your solutions, if any. Once everyone decides to move forward, make a backup to keep the original detailed data intact before you start cleaning or condensing the file.
Now that you have cleaned up the file and made the decision to convert, let’s walk through the conversion process. The process generally falls into three phases, Pre Conversion, Conversion and Post Conversion.
Start by setting up a new QuickBooks Online Advanced subscription for the converted data to upload to. You will be working from the QuickBooks Online Accountant dashboard.
Log into QuickBooks Online Accountant and look for the + symbol at the top right. This is the Quick Create menu. Make sure you are not in any of your client’s files. You must be at the “Your Practice” screen or the workflows below will not be there. Then, follow these steps.
QBOA > Quick Create > Client.
Choose subscription and who will pay the subscription fees.
The new QuickBooks Online Advanced subscription should now be listed on your client dashboard in QuickBooks Online Accountant. Click the QuickBooks logo next to your client’s company name to open the file. There won’t be any data in this new subscription, but it is ready for our next steps. You will have 180 days to import desktop data to this new QuickBooks Online Advanced subscription before it locks.
First, make sure you are logged out of the QuickBooks Online Accountant file. This will help when you are prompted to log into QuickBooks Online Accountant again.
Next, verify if the client’s desktop file is compatible with the conversion tool. In QuickBooks Desktop, open the company and follow the steps below. These steps will verify the desktop database and prompt you to take additional action, if necessary. It will also rebuild the data as a cleanup step. Do not skip this process! You want to make sure well-structured data is moved over to QuickBooks Online Advanced.
NOTE: If the desktop software is more than two years old, you should download a free 30 day trial of the latest edition, install and open the company file in that latest desktop edition.
Open desktop file and run some utilities.
File > Utilities > Verify Data.
File > Utilities > Rebuild Data.
Merge or make inactive any unnecessary list items.
Condense data to remove targets and list items.
Create a backup for a pre-conversion archive.
You should already be in QuickBooks Desktop and have verified that the file is cleaned up and ready to move over to QuickBooks Online. QBO. You also have two complete backups filed away, one that you made before you started cleaning up the Desktop file and one that you made after the cleanup, but before conversion.
The conversion tool is located in the Company Menu in QuickBooks Pro and Premier.
If you are using QuickBooks Enterprise, the steps are a little different.
Open the QuickBooks Enterprise company file.
On your keyboard, press Ctrl+1 to open the “Product Information” window.
Note: If the sign-in window doesn’t appear after closing “Product Information”, repeat steps 1-4.
If your client is using Mac, click this link to review additional resources on converting from Mac.
Enter your QBOA login info and agree to the Terms of Service by clicking Sign In.
Review your moving-day checklist and access linked resources. Click Continue.
Designate if you want the Inventory feature enabled in QuickBooks Online Advanced and desktop inventory converted to FIFO. Click Continue.
Choose your client’s QuickBooks Online Advanced subscription from your firm’s client list then Continue.
Type AGREE to allow acknowledge this step will be overwriting any data currently entered in that subscription. Click Replace.
Intuit® will email you when conversion is finished.
The conversion is now complete. As you can now see, most of the harder work was done prior to the conversion phase. Intuit has made the actual conversion part easy. The key is to be sure you do your homework before you convert; this will make it all go smoother overall.
You will now receive an email from Intuit letting you know the data has been converted and you can access an Import Summary report to get more insights on the conversion. Save it for your records.
NOTE: If for any reason the file did not convert, Intuit will send you a notification. In my experience, they are really helpful at this stage so don’t worry. Just contact QBOA support for next steps.
Now, log back into QBOA and click the QuickBooks logo next to your client’s company name to open the QBO file that now contains the imported desktop data. You will need to have the QuickBooks desktop file open as well. Follow these steps below.
Compare Reports: For each of the following, open in QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop and check for differences. NOTE: The first three reports in the list below will not match if you are importing inventory – this is due to recalculations from average cost inventory to FIFO.
Run Balance Sheet, all dates, accrual basis.
Run Profit & Loss, all dates, accrual basis.
Inventory valuation summary, all dates (if applicable).
Undeposited Funds transaction detail report.
Taxes > Sales Tax > Record Tax Payment.
Pre reconciliation, reissue and replace converted sales tax payments.
Employees on left navigation bar.
Verify “Paid In.” All employees paid in current year are marked YES.
Continue through prompts to complete setup.
Gear > Your Company > Manage Users.
Gear > Your Company > Account and Settings > Company.
Attachment center located in Gear > Lists > Attachment.
Make unwanted list items Inactive.
Gear > Your Company > Account and Settings > Sales.
Reports > My Custom Reports.

Gear > Your Company > Account and Settings > Payments.
Banking > Add Account. NOTE: To avoid duplication, choose appropriate date range for initial download.
Gear > Your Company > Account and Settings > Advanced.
Congratulations! You have successfully moved your client to QuickBooks Online Advanced. You can now collaborate and work with your client in real time. No more boxes of receipts, exchanging Accountant’s Copies or needing thumb drives. There are so many benefits to transitioning your clients to the cloud.

"Ethics" may sound like an abstract concept more suited to dusty halls of academia than day-to-day life. But a closer look at the Jewish ethical literature and era-spanning classics like The Path of the Upright by Moshe Hayyim Luzzatto; Duties of the Heart by Bahya ibn Pakudah; and Improvement of Moral Virtues by Maimonides - puts that misconception to rest, and provides a compelling action plan for living ethically.
In an accessible and highly readable fashion, this one-of-a-kind book introduces the genre of Jewish ethical literature, and with excerpts from the texts themselves, shows what it means to be truly Jewish in your work life, relationships, parenting, play, relationship with God, death, and everything in between.
Originally published in hardcover as How to Be a Jew.

I completed a bachelor’s degree in Chinese Language and Literature at Queens College in fall 2016. I worked as a teacher’s aide at the CUNY Language Immersion Program at Queensborough Community College from Fall 2012 to Spring 2014 while I studied to get my associates degree in Liberal Arts. I have worked as a private English tutor for almost 20 years in South Korea, Japan, and the U.S. I have also worked as a Korean language interpreter (consecutive and simultaneous) in public schools and medical clinics in New York. Now I work as a phone interpreter.
I love helping my students to learn and become more confident in their abilities to communicate in the English language. This is especially the case when I see that they are as enthusiastic and curious as I am about other cultures and languages around the world. I always hope to learn from, as well as teach, my students about the things that we all share as human beings.
Tony's way of explanation is very precise and easy to follow. He's so quick and efficient that I can learn fully during the lesson. I asked many questions, but we still had time to talk other things. I feel lucky to be able to learn from him.

What is the customer base of the reseller web page hosting solution suppliers?
It consists of web site designers or site design enterprises providing chiefly web design solutions. Small-scale Internet Service Providers, very influential Search Engine Optimization developers and various World Wide Web go-getters are also involved with the hosting reseller picture.
At the moment, the most widespread marketing model is the cPanel reseller web hositng service, where the reseller pre-pays for a selected reseller web hosting package (with certain amounts of data storage, traffic, hosted domain names, etc. on a monthly basis (at wholesale rates). Then the reseller account is sliced down into smaller shared web hosting plans, which are subsequently sold to the clients at retail rates specified by the reseller. The reseller's revenue is calculated by subtracting the wholesale hosting price from the retail hosting price.
The cPanel-based reseller hosting must take care of the invoicing transaction management system supply (a merchant account integrated into a 3rd party invoice transaction management platform is needed) and the 24/7/365 client and sales support system supply. The reseller also plays the role of a bridge between the customers and the top-level domain name registrar where the domain names are actually being registered, relocated or renewed on behalf of the clients (a domains reseller account working with the billing transaction management system is wanted too).
No domain, invoice transaction and technical support administration tools in cPanel?!?
On very rare occasions you might be fortunate to come across other quite advantageous cloud hosting reseller schemes, like the one forged by ResellersPanel. There are no monthly reseller charges or down payments. It's as simple as that: if a deal is accomplished, there is a fee, in all other occasions - there is not. Looks like with ResellersPanel there are no commercial risks for the resellers. Our opinion is that ResellersPanel's mode of operation is perhaps way better than the presently quite popular cPanel hosting reseller system. Read further to learn why.
To begin with, as opposed to the cPanel-based reseller web hosting vendors, ResellersPanel will not tax the reseller a single cent. Not until the reseller generates any new deals or renewals. Which is very reasonable, in fact. This curtails the commercial risks to ground-zero levels. With ResellersPanel's hosting reseller platform, the reseller is not mixed up with monthly or annual down payments, donations, reseller fees or deposits whatsoever. While the famous cPanel-based reseller site hosting setup is based largely on monthly or annual down payments and fees, which means... much bigger commercial risks. Unlike ResellersPanel's reseller webspace hosting program, the cPanel reseller web hosting scheme does not care whether the reseller has generated any deals or not - the monthly or annual reseller subscriptions have to be paid in a timely fashion, i.e. have to be paid beforehand. Period.
ResellersPanel is not solely a hazard-free reseller web space hosting program. ResellersPanel delivers ACTUAL CLOUD WEB SITE HOSTING packages for reselling. Everywhere else, there is some partial evidence for the existence of a cloud hosting platform. The cloud hosting accounts the resellers can custom create and promote on behalf of their web hosting trademarks are available at 4 datacenter sites: in the United States, in the United Kingdom, in Sweden and in Australia! How many cPanel-based reseller site hosting companies deliver multi-continent data center site options? How many cPanel web hosting companies provide cloud hosting services to the resellers and to their clients?
How many reseller web site hosting retailers, except for ResellersPanel, enable their resellers to promote Virtual Private Servers, semi-dedicated servers and dedicated servers at extremely attractive prices? Hepsia, the industry's best hosting CP, is included there as well, by default, at no extra or added expense. Unlimited hosted domain names, Secure Shell and complete root-level access are also added in the functionality-rich web server hosting accounts. Beside that, the resellers can also offer over 50 generic and country code top-level domains and SSL certificates to their clients.

Readers Question / Comment - How can Jesus be God? Only God is God!
First let me say that I truly enjoy and am edified by much of the commentary given on your JPN site. Sincere thanks.
Only God is God. While here on earth Jesus constantly referred to his Father in heaven. Jesus told us that he was in the Father and that the Father was in him, not that he himself was God. Jesus said that he was God’s son, not God. The Pharisees even said that Jesus claimed to be the son of God, not that he claimed to be God.
The epistles tell us that we also are the sons of God. Does that make us God? No, our lives are hidden in God with Christ. Christ being in God, just as he said. God the Father was in him, just as God the Father is in us, ie. the Holy Spirit. There is but one God and that is God the Father. There is but one Messiah and that is Jesus. God has many children, begotten of the spirit, one of those children is the Messiah, and he the Messiah, the Christ, is not God. Only God is God.
Let's start with the Old Testament prophecies about the coming Messiah and see if they say anything about whether He would be God or not.
This famous prophecy says that a child will be born who will be 'Mighty God'. Clear this child that was to be born is something more that just a human baby!
Another famous prophecy. The virgin will give birth to the Messiah who will be called 'God with us' (the meaning of Immanuel).
Jeremiah 23:5-6 The days are coming, declares the LORD, "when I will raise up to David a righteous Branch, a King who will reign wisely and do what is just and right in the land. (6) In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety. This is the name by which he will be called: The LORD (YHWH) Our Righteousness.
The coming Messiah would be called YHWH (God's sacred and holy name).
Here we have a prophecy that YHWH will come and dwell amongst mankind and it is YHWH that sent Him! This only makes sense in the context of the trinity where both the Father and the Son are God - The Son is YHWH just as the Father is!
So what of the New Testament? Does it just say that Jesus is a son of God as you say or does it say that He is God Himself? It continues the same thought seen in these Old Testament passages about he Messiah stating clearly that He is God!
John 1:1-2 In the beginning was the Word (Jesus), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (2) He was with God in the beginning.
John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only (Jesus), who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
Here Jesus is called 'God the One and Only'. Can you now see why it is wrong to think only the Father is God?
John 20:27-29 Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe." (28) Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!" (29) Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
If this was not correct, Jesus would have corrected Thomas but He didn't. Because, as we have seen, Jesus is God.
Jesus is out great God and Savior.
What about the writer of Hebrews?
Hebrews 1:8-9 But about the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom. (9) You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy."
Here we have God the Father addressing Jesus as God!
John 8:57-59 You are not yet fifty years old, the Jews said to him, "and you have seen Abraham!" (58) I tell you the truth, Jesus answered, "before Abraham was born, I am!" (59) At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.
John 10:30-33 I and the Father are one." (31) Again the Jews picked up stones to stone him, (32) but Jesus said to them, "I have shown you many great miracles from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?" (33) We are not stoning you for any of these, replied the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God."
They knew He was claiming to be God.
John 3:16-18 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (17) For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. (18) Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.
God's one and only is translated 'only begotten' in some other translations. Begotten is the Greek word 'monogenoús' which means 'Unique, one of a kind, one and only'. Jesus is the one and only Son of His kind and is unique. Though believers have been given a tremendous position in the Lord, and are children of God, never put Jesus into that same group as if He is no different from us. He is. He is God the One and Only as John 1:18 states.
I trust this is clear and helps. And I trust you believe these scriptures.

Good grief. I'm not a Catholic, but I really hate this kind of nonsense. Google is your friend.
Jesus laid it out. He spoke with Peter and compared Peter's name [which is the word for tiny pebble].
You Peter are a pebble, but on this ROCK [Christ himself] would He build his church.
A quick review of the entire Bible lays to rest quickly, exactly who Jesus was saying the ROCK is.
..and Google is your enemy. Be careful.
First of all, petros and petra were synonyms in first century Koine Greek in which most of the new Testament was written. Second, most believe that Matthew was first written in Aramaic. Third, and most importantly, Jesus spoke Aramaic and said "You are Kepha and on Kepha I will build on my Church". It became Petros (Peter) when it was translated to Greek.
The Catholics, the Orthodox, and many protestants unequivocably believe that Peter was THE ROCK in Matthew 16. As God changed Abrahm name to Abraham, which means father of multitudes, Jesus converted Simon's name to Peter when He gave Peter the keys to the kingdom of heaven and made Peter the head of His Church.
You need to separate yourself from the misinformation given to you by protestants with an agenda and no love of truth if it doesn't fit their purpose.

wish i could rep you--great post!
I am sorry, Catholics pray to Mary. They told, that after they are baptised in the Holy Spirit they can better pray to Mary. The RCC dogma says that Mary is mediator between man and God, the bible says it is the man (High Priest )Jesus. Mary has no redeeming power, is not a virgin, she was married to Joseph and had children after Jesus (Jakob, Simeon and Jude) and she is not divine. I think you have to study the history of Papasy, that there where some proclaimed God is mentioned in this thread, the RCC never renounced it.
I was in the worldwide gathering of the charismatic Catholics, I partisipated in a prozession with a shrine of Mary. I repented of idolatry, because this Mary is not the mother of Jeshua, she is in Heaven and weeps over the foolishness of Gods people who perish out of lack of knowledge. You search it out before it is too late.
while growing up , i was taught to say the " hail mary "
As a cradle Catholic , and having more than a dozen of pilgrims to Lourdes behind me , I can say without any hesitation that you do not pray to Mary or any saints for that matter . She is virgin and therefore unique in a sense that she was born without the original sin , so she could give birth to Jesus .Only God is divine , Mary is the blessed one or holy ..........this is catechism 101.

more thing should be made in AMERICA!!!
"This previously unreported deal runs counter to Romney’s tough talk on the campaign trail regarding China. “We will not let China continue to steal jobs from the United States of America,” Romney declared in February. But with this investment, Romney sought to make money off a foreign company that banked on American firms outsourcing manufacturing overseas.
Obama's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, 26 business leaders assembled by the president for job-spurring ideas, includes representatives of several companies that have used outsourcing, fueling job creation abroad and job losses in the U.S. Shipping work to low-cost overseas labor markets has been a trend in American manufacturing for decades. The White House has a plan to curb outsourcing, but companies represented on the jobs council reveal just how pervasive the practice is.

Tevar wants Lovely back in his life. He corners Lovely and tells her that Kullfi is their daughter and needs her. He asks her to come back to him, along with Amyra, as Sikandar can never keep her happy. Lovely doesn’t listen to him. Tevar tells her that he is ready to accept Sikandar’s child Amyra for her sake. Lovely asks him to just leave from her life. He asks her to think about Kulfi, who really wants her mother’s love. Mohendar’s wife spots them together and wonders what’s their relation. Tevar tells Kulfi that he will win the Dahi Handi competition for her sake. Sikandar tries to talk to Kulfi, but Tevar comes in between. He stays happy that Kulfi is accepting Tevar as her dad. Amyra asks him if he will win the competition for her sake. Sikandar promises of winning the competition for her happiness. Sikandar and Tevar go for the competition.
Amyra tells Kulfi that she has kept this condition for Sikandar to win. Kulfi asks her not to keep conditions in love. Amyra asks her not to teach her anything and stay away from her dad. Kulfi wishes Sikandar wins and keeps Amyra’s heart. She gets selfless once again. Kulfi shares her sorrow with Mohendar. He cries for her sorrow. She tells him that she misses Sikandar a lot, but she doesn’t know the connection between them. She wants to love Tevar as her dad, but wants Sikandar to win the competition. Mohendar helps her out and asks her to know whom she wants to win. Kulfi wants Sikandar to win so that Amyra returns home and brings happiness in Sikandar’s life. She stops Tevar from winning. She distracts Tevar, when he reaches close to win. Tevar loses the competition when Kulfi mocks an injury.
Tevar runs to his daughter, while Sikandar reaches the Matki and breaks it, thus winning the competition. Tevar realizes that Kulfi has mocked the injury to make Sikandar win. He gets heartbroken that his daughter didn’t wish his victory. He gets jealous of Sikandar and Kulfi’s strong connection. He turns upset with Kulfi, since he wanted to win for her sake.
Kulfi tells Mohendar that she prayed Sikandar to win, but she has hurt Tevar’s heart. Sikandar pleases Amyra and gets the trophy for her. Amyra decides to return home and live with her parents. Amyra wants to take a promise from Sikandar that he won’t meet Kulfi. Sikandar rushes to meet Kulfi, and finds her with Tevar. Kulfi doesn’t want Sikandar to come after her, since this will make him distant from Amyra again. She asks Sikandar to go back. She wants him to smile. Sikandar returns to Amyra, who breaks the trophy and doesn’t value his victory. Amyra goes out of control again. Sikandar fails to realize what she wants. He maintains his cool. She asks him to promise that he will never meet Kulfi. She asks for a big thing this time and Sikandar turns sorrowful.

I read the book "How To Be Parisian Wherever You Are", it is a very easy read. Normally this genre is not my type of book (I am more into classics), but my friend Aina mentioned that a lot of what the authors wrote, reminded her of me. I was intrigued and decided to give it a go. She was right, many topics were very similar to my life choices and personality in general. I never knew my behaviour was so "Parisian". It is a book of common sense, highlighting natural beauty, cultural knowledge, empowerment for women, and touches on our fragility with good humour, in an easy tone. I recommend it. Here I am with no make up, natural hair, black clothes with minimal accessories and my sunglasses. Slight variations of this style make up for my everyday wear, with self-assurance and a touch of fragility to face a new challenge everyday.
PS. My favourite look from the Oscars was from Cate Blanchett. A sophisticated minimal gown from Margiela by John Galliano, paired with a Tiffany statement necklace, if you missed it check it here.
You've peaked my interest, I have no idea how Parisians behave or how they live their lives :-D Have to check out this bookie!
Hope you liked the book, lady!
Keep up with all your amazing work.
Love so much your look, super awesome this jacket.
Também gostei do look dela! Elegante!
Love it, as usual ! Your jeans are great !
Damn girl...love it, the bomber is perfect!
I love to keep it simple too!
To be honest - I love your hair!:) And this bag is so simple and beautiful.
I'm very curious about that book!

Much as many Americans wish Barack Obama could ride to their rescue tomorrow rather than having to wait even another fortnight for his inauguration, they may have been better off electing Hillary Clinton to dig themselves out of their economic hole.
That's because, according to new UK research and the views of an influential U.S workplace academic, if more women had been in senior positions in finance and big business, much of the woes of the past year could perhaps have been, if not avoided completely, then certainly lessened.
A poll of business executives by UK consultancy The Aziz Corporation has found that nearly nine out of 10 firmly believe a culture that encouraged and rewarded excessive risk contributed to the financial crisis.
More than eight out of 10 felt this failure to understand the risk that many financial institutions were running was fuelled by a "macho" culture within many City firms, with more than three quarters adding that gender imbalance in the working environment had a significant effect.
Almost half – and a majority of those working in financial services – believed that having more women in senior positions could have prevented some of the excesses.
The poll findings are echoed by Myra White, who teaches managing workplace performance and organisational behaviour at Harvard University and is a regular columnist for Management-Issues.
"Women's more cautious approach to risk-taking is in part due to the fact that women make decisions much more carefully than men," she pointed out.
"They want to consider alternatives and potential problems before they take action. In the male-dominated world of finance and business where the prevailing wisdom has been that you must quickly assess your options and take action, the tendency of women to proceed with caution has hurt their careers," she added.
"The male approach of acting first and thinking later has been heralded as the gold standard. Women who haven't embraced this approach are accused of over thinking problems and ruminating too much. Some authors have even gone so far as to suggest that this tendency to ruminate makes women more susceptible to regrets and depression.
"Now that we are reaping the rewards of the failure of men at the top to ruminate enough and many people are mired in depression and regrets over the state of their finances, it is hoped that women's more measured and cautious approaches will be sought in the financial world," she continued.
"However, it is not clear that this will happen. In some cases, such as in the U.S, men are already rushing forward with solutions and throwing money at the problem without carefully thinking through the consequences of their actions," she concluded.
White is not the only one to argue that, if fewer men had been in charge, we might now be in a shallower hole.
Back in November, an analysis of more than 65,000 people by management consultancy Hudson predicted that the global recession could make it even harder for women to break into the boardroom.
Women, it found, were generally more altruistic, people-oriented, co-operative and open and so better suited to leading modern-day organisations.
Yet these very traits were ones that stopped many women progressing within their organisations.
Professor Khalid Aziz, chairman of the Aziz Corporation, said: "Many commentators have focused on the need for greater regulation of the City, and for improved systems to control risk. Of equal importance is the culture within those firms.
"A little more application of female caution and intuition might do wonders for our major financial institutions," he added.
It has been my experience over a half century, most of that alive, that women tend to be much better people than men: more honest, more loyal, more caring, more thoughtful, more trustworthy, and much less dangerous.

Early. Too early. Whose bright idea was the Sunday club ride? So Sunday. So early. Yet some must return to hoist children onto shoulders or tackle jungle gardens, you know, normal life. We’re cycle cramming. This is our time.
Six AM. Everything is wrong. The clock four hours fast, bed time the wrong side of Saturday night. Breakfast is porridge and coffee not bacon and a bloody mary. Bib shorts not dressing gown, you look like the world’s sleepiest, thinnest wrestler. And let’s not mention the cream you’re applying down there.
Eventually you bumble outside accompanied by your trusty bike. Air chilly. You regret not wearing more. You climb on the bike as if climbing on a horse for the first time. Off you go. Drunks walk straighter.
The ride to the meeting point is slow until you realise you’re late. So begins the all too familiar pre-ride sprint. You’re knackered before the ride begins.
Conversation is sparse at the club meet-up. This is what we do for fun, people’s faces don’t say. One by one more Lycra zombies arrive. One of us smells of booze and will enjoy the hills that much less than others. Poor bugger.
Mumbles of late alarms clocks, unruly kids, mechanicals, whisky. It’s a wonder we have the energy to leave our beds let alone ride a not insignificant distance at a pace beyond our comfort zone.
Talk of the route. Which route? Everyone has five variants of the ‘usual’ ride. None of them match. Talk of road names and places few recognise, despite the nodding heads. Fiddling with bike computers to load the digital line we shall follow. Others care not, they shall follow the wheel in front, an added incentive not to get dropped.
The old boys have the route inked into their muscle memory. They could ride this half asleep. Fortunate, looking around the group.
The ride begins. Pace gentle. Chatter of weekends gone, of the latest unneccessary bike related purchases, excuses traded early. Riding side by side, leg muscles warming up as we weave out of town avoiding the discards of the night before, smashed glass near pubs, kebab wrappers a little further down, the occasional solitary shoe. It’s amazing how many people must wake up with one shoe. A few bedraggled folk are still making their way home after a very late night, their hangovers already kicking in.
A call out from the pack. Whoa! Shambles alert number one. Half the group has turned off, following the wrong route. Oh, so this is the long/bob’s/version 32 of the route we’re doing?
Country lanes. Each twist and turn and pothole well-known to the regulars. A few spurts from the front as people begin to test their legs and the legs of those in their wake.
Voices increase in volume and we nod as if yes, we can hear you over the noise of traffic and the wind gushing past our ears at 22mph. You’ve just unknowingly committed yourself to riding a monster Euro sportive in two weeks time and you’re nodding and smiling like an idiot.
Riding blind. Hand signals point to holes, craters, horses, that driver three-point turning without warning. The occasional shout. Car up. Hole. Car back. All on.
Man down. Mechanical. We stop and regroup around the stricken rider. Time to help. Or provide a running commentary. Or simply stare. Research would surely show it’s quicker for a single rider to repair a puncture than a group.
Q. How many cyclists does it take to fix a puncture? A. 10. Two to discuss the merits of CO2 canisters versus a pump, three observers, one to tut at the upside down bike, one to bemoan the strength of the mini-pump, one to blather on about tubeless, one to criticise, and one to actually crack on and fix the bloody thing.
Conversation stops when the pace increases. We’ll let our legs do the talking. They mostly grumble and beg us to stop. The wheel in front is not listening, inching further and further away.
Now your fate depends on who has turned up and what mood they’re in. The fast boys on a good day or the not quite that fast but still fast guys feeling frisky.
Today’s pace is clearly ‘let’s rip the legs off’. Off we shoot, the usual suspects on the front dishing out pain to all those who dare follow. Time to check the remaining miles and wince. Bugger, 40 miles more of this pace. Ugh.
You begin mentally counting the remaining hills for it is when the road goes up the group suffers most. You hit the front, not by choice but because everyone else has peeled off. You calm things down with a slower pace, which lasts all of 24 seconds until the group comes thundering past you one by one. You dare not look at them. You’re fine of course. If being close to cardiac arrest is fine.
On the peloton rides, the pace cranking up. Desperate for a break you’re tempted to call out puncture just for the rest. Time to start hitting those potholes.
The ride blurs by. You’re exhausted. Muscles cramping, you must cling on to the wheel in front. The final hill. Judgement time. The group stretches out, everyone wants to stop but nobody wants to be dropped. You kill yourself, for what, you’re not quite sure but it is the most important thing in the world not to be dropped.
The street sign sprint looms. You shake your leg muscles out as if you have a chance. You don’t. You’re doing all you can to follow the wheel in front. Not that this will stop you putting your nose into the wind come the street sign sprint. Speed at 30 mph, when to jump, when to sprint?
Glory so close, boom, off you go. For 2 seconds you’re the fastest rider alive, glory assured. Your spurt is short-lived. By second 3 you’re dying along with your speed. Legs screaming. The winning line still a long, long, long way away. The rest of the bunch breezes past you as if you’re stationary. Glory gone, you had your nose in the wind for so little time you can barely call yourself a lead out.
Cafe time. Perhaps the cafe will have a defibrillator or a big needle with an adrenaline hit to be aimed at the heart Pulp Fiction style. You order double espresso, a can of coke and the biggest cake you can see. It’ll have to do.
Talk is slow coming, just like that coke you’re begging for. Still recovering. Some won’t recover until next Saturday night. Conversation of the shambles and memories of similar rides. Talk of summer rides in exotic places. Yes, I’m going to Slough. More equipment talk. Families and beers. Innocuous chatter. No Trump, no politics. For this is a safe haven.
Stomach grumbling for proper food, it’s time to head home. See you all next week, except you I hope, yes you who dished out all that pain!
Done. Of course you enjoyed it. Loved it. Can’t wait until next week.
I think you’ve summed it up quite nicely….either that or you were on last week’s club ride with me.
Just back from a race (Voss-Geilo in Norway) 160Km – 2662m climbed in rain, very much rain, and cold wind. (50% dropped out before race start, and another 25% dropped of during, from what I’ve heard).
So happy to read this article, to know I am not alone in being this “stupid” about being on a bike.
Ha ha, very much not alone Martin! Sounds like a tough day out. Only makes the good days that much more enjoyable!
Great read, and yes this does indeed sound familiar to me. It brought back flashbacks of a particular club ride a month ago, where as well as the problems described, a biting headwind across Salisbury Plain hindered progress yet more! Living in lumpy Wiltshire, I’m also all too familiar with the brutal sprint climbs you describe! However, it is rides like these that make you stronger and I still couldn’t wait for the next ride!
the same in France every Sunday morning for me .
Some all too familiar descriptions here. And still, so very enjoyable.
Thanks for posting! Very informative and useful.

Alright, onto the Sunday recap then!
Sunday was a little less…great for me. I mean, I met a lot of authors and still got some great things, but I had my eye on the ARC of For a Muse of Fire so much that it was a little disappointing when I ended up with 0 chance of even playing the game of chance to win it. (You had to get to the booth an hour early to get tickets for the game an hour later. My friend offered to go for me for the 2pm tickets, because the 3pm game was going to have the FAMOF ARC, but the girl in front of her was literally the last person to get a ticket.) I think I let that get to my head a bit unfortunately.

Malawi RPCV and Ambassador to India Robert D Blackwill writes "What India means to me"
Unlike Siddhartha, my meditations while preparing this address have not produced total Enlightenment. Unfortunately, Brahma and Saraswati, because of my own limitations, will not adequately inspire my remarks on this occasion with regard to my spiritual and intellectual advancement. I clearly need to spend more time at Brahma’s temple in Pushkar. And, despite my continuing contemplations, I am not always able to follow Krishna’s wise words, “Be thou of even mind.” He might have added, including at your Round Tables at Roosevelt House.
Shortly after my arrival, I took the train from New Delhi to Mumbai to see and feel the land and people of India. You must understand that I love to ride the rails. Paul Theroux, the glorious American writer who was my friend in the Peace Corps in Africa more than thirty years ago, describes train travel like this, “the train soothed and comforted me and stimulated my imagination. It...provided access to my past by activating my memory. I had made a discovery: I would gladly go anywhere on a train.” That’s also me.
So let’s quickly take the train around India, pausing in Delhi before we begin. Learning about the seven cities. Presenting my credentials to President Narayanan in the Rashtrapati Bhawan, hearing my name read out by an official with the deepest voice on the planet. I so wished that my mother, Roma from South Dakota, may her soul rest in peace, could have been there to see her boy, Bobby Dean, on that splendid occasion.
Visiting Humayun’s tomb with US Secretary of the Treasury Paul O’Neill who commented that when it was erected, those living on my continent had built no structure higher than twenty feet. So you see, we Americans fell behind you Indians very early on in the architectural sweepstakes. It seems doubtful that we will ever catch up.
Back to travelling in India. Uttar Pradesh and Uttaranchal - the heat, the dust, and the glacial source of the Ganga. Like so much of India, alpha and omega provide conflicting context. The vale of Kashmir, yearning to be again a normal place. Dal Lake, which Ambassador John Kenneth Galbraith once told me, was as close to heaven as one could get on this earth. Ladakh’s high plateau with the Buddhist prayer flags flapping in the mountain wind. Sugar in strong tea, a taste that I acquired in India only in the last two months. I will now treasure that for the rest of my life. Someday, I am going to drive from Manali to Leh, listening to jazz all the way. Want to come along? Has this possibility never entered your mind? Not yet.
As I speak with you today, perhaps they will see me on television and be in touch. Have no doubt. I am always ready to dance, fast or slow. It liberates me. How about you? As you can hear, I could go on along these lines for several months. But don’t you worry. I have arranged meals and bedding for all assembled here so that you will be comfortable as I continue my extended tour.
Sitting around in a small circle on wooden chairs, trading opinions with a half a dozen distinguished Mumbai painters for an hour about abstract expressionism in New York in the 1940’s and 50’s (Pollack, Kline and the rest). What a special treat. Exploring the Ajanta and Ellora caves and their wall paintings of people who felt all of the emotions that we currently carry around with us, including especially the elements of abiding love.
Andhra Pradesh with its path-breaking e-governance, and food hotter than hot. Don’t let anybody tell you differently; those Andhra peppers are without doubt weapons of mass destruction. Ancient Christianity in Kerala; world class IT in Bangalore; the game park near Mysore where I first heard of the Columbia tragedy and stayed up all night writing my poem for Kalpana; the blend of Hindu and Islamic architecture in Chennai; the elephant carvings at Mamallapuram; the exquisite culture of Kolkata; the flowers and forests of Sikkim and the border at Nathula with no shortness of breath; the Northeast, Kaziranga and the Brahmaputra. What a country this is. And I have hardly experienced any of it.
In these places, my omnipresent security detail from the Indian police - my gunmen as a good friend called them — who accompanied me everywhere in India, who kept me safe, and who were ready to give their lives to protect me. Oh, this India that I have come to know ever so slightly. The form and function of Indian architecture with its creation, assimilation and adaptation. Magnificent Mughal miniatures. Like you, I wish I owned two dozen of the originals. Or one. India’s innumerable and distinctive dances, beginning with the classical. The Vedas and the Upanishads.
Indian family values, which I admire as essential first principles, and see in action many times every day in this country. The living symbolic power in this ancient civilization, the abiding aura, of — the tree. Of the circle. Of the triangle. Arranged marriages. The fourteen hundred years of Islam in India. Friday prayers. The Indian novel in English. Who is writing better fiction today than these folks? Mesmerising Hindustani music whose origins are deeply spiritual and therefore of particular meaning and comfort to me.
The mighty Himalayas. They humble even Blackwill, at least when he is in sight of them and it isn’t a cloudy day. Can we move them to the Potomac to give me more balance and perspective? I would not be the only one in Washington who would be grateful. Fabulous cuisines. India is unquestionably the only country in the world where this Kansas lad raised on beefsteaks could happily be a vegetarian. But please don’t tell my relatives back on the mid-West farms. Holi. Kashmiri carpets. Weavers everywhere capturing India’s enveloping colours. The Bengal tigers in the wild at Ranthambhore. How could they be more in command? I could use their skills in my new responsibilities back home, and have sent them an email with a job offer. Haven’t yet heard back from those big cats yet, but I remain hopeful.
The Monsoon that rains life into India. Surely this happens by God’s grace. The singular smell and sound as the drops strike the parched earth. Like so much of India for me, absolutely unforgettable. And more than any of this, the remembrances of the character of the people of India, which I will take back to America with me - of countless individuals over these two years who have taught me, counselled me, guided me, and protected me - who were generous to me beyond imagination. I could not repay their kindnesses to Wera and me no matter how many times I was reincarnated.
Before I close these, my final ambassadorial remarks in India, I want to deal briefly with another subject. Many in this country have remarked upon my strong views against terrorism. In these feelings, to a considerable extent I draw on the white hot anti-terrorist convictions of my President, George W Bush — and on the September 11 attacks on the American homeland. But on this subject, like so many others, India has left its dominant and enduring imprint on me.
While I was preparing for my Senate confirmation hearing in early 2001 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, I started to read regularly the Indian press. It was then that for the first time I encountered the devastating fact of terrorism against India. Sitting in my office at Harvard, I began to keep a daily count of those killed here by terrorists. Three on Monday. Seven on Tuesday. Fourteen on Wednesday. Five on Thursday. Two on Friday. Day after day. Week after week. Month after month. India’s death toll from terrorism mounted as the snow fell and melted in Cambridge, and that New England winter turned to spring. And I became more and more angry. Innocent human beings murdered as a systemic instrument of twisted political purpose.
Terror against India that rose and fell with the seasons, year after year after year. By the time that I left the United States for India in the summer of 2001, this very personal death count that I was keeping had reached hundreds. And, for me, these were not abstract and antiseptic numbers in a newspaper story. Each death, I forced myself to remember, was a single person — an individual man, woman, child — with family, loved ones, friends. They each have a name. Just like us, they each had a life to lead. These are our mothers, our fathers, our brothers, our sisters, our babies, and our friends. Each had laughs to laugh. Tears to shed. Loves to love. Meals to eat. Accomplishments to record. Setbacks to overcome. Places to go. Things to do. Prayers to offer. All snuffed out by the killing hand of terror.
We will win the war on terrorism, and the United States and India will win it together - because we represent good, and terrorists are evil incarnate. God will make it so. In this context, let me conclude with a word about India’s religious beliefs. Someone once said, “the most sublime purpose of religion is to teach how to know God.” India has been working on that challenge from a variety of perspectives for several millennia. It has been my immense privilege during these two years to experience, and to profit from, these profound wellsprings of Indian spirituality.
I will return to India. How could it be otherwise? Thank you, my friends, for listening to these, my personal musings. And, thank you India for every single thing that I have discovered here. Mother India has changed my life — forever.

He is married to Wera Hildebrand and they have five children.
Robert D. Blackwill, a retired career diplomat who is currently teaching foreign and defense policy at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School, is President Bush's nominee to be U.S. Ambassador to India.
In a statement delivered June 26 before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Blackwill said "the world can be made freer, more peaceful, and more prosperous if the United States and India cooperate more closely together over the long term."
Blackwill promised to work closely with the Indian American community and U.S. business to promote stronger ties with India.
I am honored to be here before you today, and to have been nominated by President George W. Bush to be American Ambassador to the Republic of India.
Mr. Chairman; I have been outside of government for more than a decade teaching foreign and defense policy at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School. The students there are terrific. They are bright, determined, irreverent, and like all of you and myself, they are devoted to public service.
During those rewarding years at Harvard, I recognized that while I described to my students as vividly as I could the stresses, strains and sometimes satisfaction of public policy practice, I always did so at the edge of the Charles River in a purely academic setting. If confirmed by the Senate, I will be back in the public policy arena again, as Senators are every day in this great deliberative body. I cannot tell you what a gratifying prospect that is for me.
I was a career Foreign Service Officer for 22 years and had extraordinary mentors along the way: Hal Sonnenfeldt and Henry Kissinger; Kingman Brewster and Anne Armstrong; Sam Lewis and Zbig Brezezinski; George Shultz and Brent Scowcroft; and President George Herbert Walker Bush whom I watched masterfully manage the end the Cold War, on Ronald Reagan's terms.
Others were "Present At The Creation" of the Western response to Soviet aggression. Several generations later, I was present at the death of Soviet imperialism. That Bush Administration built on the efforts of every American President and every American Congress since Harry Truman to help free the captive nations of Europe. What an enormous privilege it was for me to be in government during that period and to play a small part in that massive resurgence of freedom.
During those years in government and through my teaching, articles and books while at Harvard, I have concentrated my intellectual and conceptual attention on the relationships between and among the great powers in the international system. If the Senate confirms me, I believe that this particular strategic preoccupation of mine will be intensely relevant to my new responsibilities regarding the conduct of the U. S.- India relationship.
I can personally attest to the President's commitment to transform ties between the United States and India, both multi-ethnic democracies with federal systems of government. This central U.S. strategic objective was reflected in Governor Bush's 1999 speech at the Reagan Library in California, an event I attended with him. It was reinforced when Foreign Minister Jaswant Singh met with the President in the Oval Office in April, and reiterated in several exchanges between President Bush and Prime Minster Vajpayee. It will certainly be manifested when the President visits India in the not too distant future.
As I have heard him put it, President Bush believes that the world can be made freer, more peaceful, and more prosperous if the United States and India cooperate more closely together over the long term. Vice President Cheney and Secretary Powell recently stressed the same point to me. If confirmed, I especially look forward to working with the Indian American community and U.S. business to promote this vision. And I will urge this Committee and other members of Congress to play their crucial role in transforming the U.S.-- India relationship, to visit India regularly, and to receive your Indian counterparts here.
From my boyhood on the great plains, I brought back east more than thirty years ago the values of Kansas and its people: honesty; candor; compassion; hard work; a dogged stamina in the face of challenge and adversity; a sense of humor; a recognition of one's own limitations; and a deep and abiding love of country. If confirmed by the Senate, I will again be honored to serve the United States, to take these prairie values, these American values, with me to the Republic of India.

In this week's episode, Natalia, Neil, and Niki debate secrecy and presidential health, New York City's universal pre-kindergarten, and the legacy of Star Trek.
Hillary Clinton’s team announced she has pneumonia after she fell ill at the 9/11 commemoration. Neil argued anxiety over Clinton’s health was really partisan politics, fueled by internet conspiracies like the “Hillary Clinton Parkinson’s” videos. Natalia responded the Hillary health stories didn’t operate only on the fringe, noting Sean Hannity has been pushing the rumors for weeks on his Fox News program. Niki contended that the long history of cover-ups regarding presidential health issues and illnesses meant that stories about Clinton’s health were really about the issue of trust, something she’s written about for U.S. News & World Report. Natalia pointed out the importance of the visual in shaping American ideas about the presidency, including photos of FDR in his wheelchair and JFK posing in Sports Illustrated to mask his own ailments. Neil raised the issue of mental health, citing a Politico article about the prevalence of mental illness among the presidents.
for the city’s children. Natalia outlined the significant features of the program and distinguished it from the federal Head Start program launched in the 1960s. Niki remembered how a proposal for other universal childcare programs in the 1970s had been stopped by the Nixon administration.
2016 marks the fiftieth anniversary of Star Trek! Niki contended Star Trek reflected a certain progressivism in domestic politics – including one of the first televised interracial kisses – but also was notable for how it promoted a “universalism” on the foreign policy front during its Cold War era. Neil observed that Star Trek’s creator Gene Roddenberry had pitched the show to producers as a “space western,” a concept that spoke its Space Race-era setting but also the popularity of television westerns. Niki recommended the documentary Trekkies for understanding the show’s particular fandom.
Natalia commented on the new app Sit With Us.

From there we made a quick stop at V. Sattui to grab some bread, cheese, and meat giving us the endurance to finish the day. We made the decision to forgo tasting at this stop so we could fit in a recommendation from Tom at Whitehall Lane, and we were glad we did. Our stop at Miner Winery was worth it. As self-proclaimed pinot-lovers we were excited to see a few pinots on their flight.
This is another of those small(er) wineries that is worth visiting. Every wine we tasted was better than the one before and we walked away with a number of bottles to enjoy in the comfort of our home.
The final stop of the day was Artesa Winery. And, what do you know, they were ready for us!
The architecture and views alone were worth the stop here and the wine was an added bonus. We spent time with Austin who has visited every winery in Sonoma County - whoa! The combination of Austin's knowledge, the views, and fantastic wine left us ready to return.

Whether you realise it or not, if you're active on social media then your Klout score serves as an important measure of your social influence.
Those of you who talk to me on Twitter are no doubt already aware that a few of the faculty members from the Pop UP Business School and I are currently engaged in a little challenge to get ourselves into the Klout70 club. An almost elitist group of some of the world's greatest communicators, influencers and speakers in the social media sphere. According to the developers, Klout takes a snapshot of your social media activity over the last 90 days and based on your activity or engagement on certain platforms, allocates you a score between 1 being the lowest and 100 being the highest.
When we first started the challenge, the vast majority of us already had a score somewhere in the 50s which would put us in the top 10% of Klout scores according to their current database, but I don't think I'm alone in that I've already started getting questions about why we're doing it and what we hope to achieve. For me, it all started with a conversation with a colleague from the US, who advised me that if I wanted to be taken seriously professionally overseas then I would need to demonstrate a consistent Klout score of at least 70. She claimed that in the circles she worked in around Los Angeles, I wouldn't even be offered an interview for a job unless they could see that I was in the Klout70 club.
Now I know what you're thinking, and I wasn't entirely convinced by her anecdotal evidence either. However, over coffee with Alan Donegan from the PopUp Business School, he revealed that he'd heard the same from a contact who had openly offered him work if he could increase his Klout score to 70. We've both since heard from many others suggesting that Klout score is more important than we initially thought and that it's being used as a measure of how successful you are at networking and engaging on social media. Why? Because it's currently the only measure there is.
Klout has often come under scrutiny and courted controversy over it's secretive algorithm and aggregation techniques. It's also no stranger to headlines and stories about whether it's useful, means anything or should be trusted as a true measure of user influence. No doubt there are still many differing views on the subject today, but in the absence of any other measure there's hardly a case for it to answer. Why Klout70? Because having a Klout score of 70 puts you in the top 5% of social media influencers across the globe. Certainly nothing to be sniffed at.
To put it in perspective, Barack Obama has a Klout score of 99, Kim Kardashian is up on 89 and Gary Vaynerchuck scores 84.
