This date has been successful in recent years with a 3-0 win over Margate in 2017 to give hope for a resurgence in form. Previously in 2012 Guiseley were our visitors for a Conference North game. Guiseley were third in the table chasing promotion while we were 19th. Although our form had improved markedly in the time since Rod Stringer had taken over we still expected a hard game and would probably have been content with a draw. The game was the debut for a certain Ricky Sappleton who came straight into the team in place of Danny Subuola. It was Guiseley’s new signing, James Walshaw from Darlington who had the first chance though. Shortly afterwards Stortford got into gear as Dwight Gayle and Sappleton linked up for the first time, leading to a Reece Prestedge header being blocked on the line. Promise turned to reality in the 10th minute as Prestedge received the ball from Gayle before rounding the keeper and scoring the opening goal.
Before 20 minutes were up Blues doubled their lead. Sappleton laid the ball off for Ritchie Jones, whose low ball to the near post was converted by Arron Wickham from close range for his first goal – 2-0. This may have been unexpected but it was not undeserved and Stortford comfortably maintained their lead for the rest of the first half, only having concern right at the death when a mistake by Sean Francis almost let Senior in for a chance, but the defence recovered quickly.
The Yorkshiremen came back at Stortford strongly in the second half as they saw their promotion chances being damaged. Jordan Archer did well to gather a free kick under pressure in the 50th minute, while 5 minutes later Baldry headed across the goal from close range. In the 72nd minute Guiseley got a deserved goal as a number of deflections led the ball to sub Ellington who kept his head on the edge of the area and put a low shot under Archer to put the visitors back in the game.
Now it was expected that Blues would have a struggle to hold the lead against a much higher ranked team than themselves but with Guiseley pushing forward in search of an equaliser Blues were able to exploit a gap in the 84th minute. Gayle got the ball just inside the Guiseley half and playing a pacey one-two with Shulton he hit a low shot into the corner to restore the 2 goal advantage. Rothery was then sent off for an elbow into Ali Abdullahi’s face as the visitors hopes of getting something from the game evaporated. Finally in the 4th minute of added on time Stortford secured the points when in another break Prestedge found Dadson who scored the final goal of the game.
This was our first win on this date since 1989 when a Stortford side ridiing high in the Isthmian League won 2-0 away to Slough Town with goals from English and McCayna. The last home game on this date was all the way back in 1984 at home to Wokingham Town.
The above game was also notable as the debut for Ricky Sappleton, one of the more popular players of recent years, who went on to score 25 goals in 60 games for us.

Nepal is a small Himalayan kingdom of 24 million people located between China and India. Predominantly a hindu society, roughly 20% are buddhist and there are also many shamanists and witch doctors in the Kathmandu Valley and further out in Nepal. The peoples of Nepal are a rich tapestry, originating in India, Tibet and elsewhere in the region. Despite the ferocious reputation for bravery earned by the Gurkha regiments recruited from the Gorkha region of Nepal, Nepalese culture is uniquely genteel, cultured and dignified. Visitors to Nepal soon realise that the country is a patchwork quilt of peoples from the commercially-minded Newars of the Kathmandu Valley to the more Tibetan-influenced mountain peoples of the northern regions of the country.
Whilst Kathmandu is undoubtably the cultural, political and economic epicentre of Nepal, to see the country in its full glory, we recommend visitors sample the delights of the rural areas - by trekking to Everest or around the Annapurnas - or going on safari in untouched tropical jungles, taking nature hikes or wherever your interest may lead you.

Router bits should not bottom out in the arbor shaft of a router, because it can compromise tightening them properly in the collet. I used to follow the usual convention of bottoming the bit out, then pulling it back up 1/16″ to 1/8″ or so. But I was never sure if the bit was slipping back down when I tightened the collet.
Here’s a foolproof solution: Squeeze out a 1/4″ bead of silicone caulk onto a scrap of melamine, plastic laminate or other non-stick surface and let it fully cure. Then cut it into 1/8″ slivers to use as spacers under your router bit. Drop one into the collet hole, and you’ll never bottom out the bit again.

Writing, by its very nature, is a sophisticated act. The writer, therefore, who deliberately cultivates the artless and the naïve skirts the danger of a specious primitivism, a fraudulent purity of feeling. We have seen William Saroyan, with his backyard pastorals, flash brilliantly for a while and then molder neglected. His sense of wonder had long since become cloying; his freshness had staled.
In "A Lost King," by Raymond DeCapite, there is an engaging immersion in a Saroyanesque world. The old simplicities of feeling, the insistent sentimentalities have an authority one would think had long vanished. Mr. DeCapite’s characters are full of whimsy and vagrant impulse, and of that startling departure from common sense which--at least in this kind of novel—is often itself loftier common sense.
It is Paul who provides the moral center of the novel. He is a kind of inept Huckleberry Finn whose misadventures in love and work are at once comic and moving. In an ambiance of small catastrophe, he moves from one job to another--meat slicer in a super market, loader of potashy gags, machine tender in a factory. After each failure, he ritualistically buys heaps of food for this father and cheerfully returns to his true spiritual home, atop the watermelon wagon with an old neighborhood friend. This is a life he understands.
"Everyone was delighted to see us and it seemed a perfectly wonderful way to make a living. All that day we were out in the fresh air and sunlight. Round us was the sweetness of watermelon like cut grass. Deep in the gold of the afternoon, we sold out and I lay back in the wagon to watch the sky and listen to the quickening clip-clop of the horse Tina."
Old Carl Christopher, to be sure, is as much a misfit as harmonica playing Paul. A crusty old tyrant with a kind of exasperated tenderness for his son, he spouts the American gospel of success, but he is desolate with the thought of his own fading powers. ("It’s like a knife in my heart when I remember how strong I used to be.") After a party in honor of his sixtieth birthday, he quietly dies.
In its limpid currents of feeling, "A Lost King" has a faintly archaic flavor. Yet it is as persuasively charming novel. Paul has a gentle and generous lyricism. "Something good is happening," he cries out. "I feel it in the air. Do you realize a baby’s being born every five seconds or so?" Moreover, there are howlingly funny moments in this novel: the chief butcher in the super market shouting at the apprentices "Attack, attack," as they wield their flashing knives; or Paul protesting when his father complains that his girlfriend is bow-legged. "I know, I know, I wanted a bow-legged girl."
"A Lost King" resolves no existential dilemmas, but it is a warm and winning novel which says "yes" to life. It should give delight to many readers.

The Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mr. Godwin Emefiele has tasked State Governments in Nigeria to take advantage of opportunities in their respective States to boost the agricultural sector in Nigeria, even as he pledged the Bank’s support to any State Government committed to agriculture.
He gave the charge in Emure-Ile, Ondo State, on Friday, February 23, 2018, shortly before he and the Ondo State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN, performed the ground-breaking ceremony of Greenfield Integrated Poultry and Powderized Egg Facility.
Speaking on “Engendering the Growth of Nigeria’s Poultry Industry”, Mr. Emefiele emphasized the need for interested State Governments to take advantage of the many opportunities to develop the agricultural sector in their States in order to provide jobs, reduce the level of unemployment in the country and drive growth.
While reiterating the charge of the President, Muhammadu Buhari, to Nigerians to “produce what we eat and eat what we produce”, Mr. Emefiele emphasized that the attention focused on agriculture was a good strategy.
In his remarks, the Governor of Ondo State, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN urged all states to support ranching as a way of boosting the quality of meat produced in Nigeria. He also emphasised the need for other State Governments to key into agriculture as a way of boosting and diversifying the Nigerian economy.
Also speaking, the Managing Director of Greenfield Assets Limited, Dr. Paul Obanua thanked both the CBN Governor and the Ondo State Governor for supporting the project, which he noted was the largest in Africa and the Middle East.
Highpoint of the ceremony was the cutting of the tape and unveiling of the plaque to formally flag-off the construction of the Greenfield Egg Pasteurization and Powderization Facilitywith the capacity of producing 10 million broilers per annum farm with 4,000 birds per hour meat processing plant; a 600,000 layers farm for the production 100 million eggs per annum; two20 tons per hour Feed-mill and a 500,000 Eggs per day Egg Powder Plant. The plant would create about 25,000 jobs, earn the country over $1 billion in foreign exchange savings and boost increased incomes for poultry farmers in Nigeria.
The Public-Private Partnership (PPP) with a capital requirement of NGN 28,369,276,360 to be invested in capital equipment and working capital, involves Big Dutchman International providing technical and operational management of the project. Other parties to the project are Marel Food Processing Company BV, a leading global provider of advanced processing systems and services to the Poultry, Meat and Fish industries, and Actini SAS.

I just purchased the Cabelas XL cot and spent a couple of nights on it at home for testing purposes. I have the Aire Landing Pad on it as well. It is comfortable, roomy and folds up relatively compact. Purchased it on Ebay for $64 shipped, which is about half off. April will be my first Grand trip without the wife so I won't need a tent unless there is bad weather so I thought I would splurge and sleep comfortably. I also purchased the Teton cot organizer that hangs off the side and holds my glasses, a mug, headlamp and the other items I need to keep off the ground and close by. Hope you find what you are looking for. Have a great trip!
This thread is pretty much in dead horse-beating territory, but I have to agree on the roll-a-cot for anything other than a pack trip. I purchased a pair of the Longhorn roll-a-cots with the sleeping pad sleeve and included sleeping pad last year, and after a couple nights on them, sold my AIRE landing pads because they were heavy, bulky, and superfluous.
Also - MNichols, you're obviously confused about the difference between wood and aluminum, or you're confusing one brand for another. Camptime doesn't make anything out of wood.
Roll-a-cots are not made of wood and they do not rot.
My bad then. Never seen one, but I’d have to assume that any with wood dowels are rare? I bought my first one back in 1994 and perhaps yours are older?
Back to the Helinox cot lite problem I had.
The video is really nice to watch but I have to agree with Bighorn in that Auzzie Ladies are really strong. No way can I assemble my cot lite like she does.
I ended up emailing Bighorn and he shared his dis assembly tips with me. I put the cot on edge and pushed in with body weight just below the flat part of the leg assembly and was able to pop the legs off. I had been pushing on the flat part at the top of the leg assembly and that does not work for take apart.
Thanks to Bighorn the cot lite is going to stay in my kit and hopefully I can look forward to good nights rest on it and dis assemble it easier each morning.
I have both roll-a-cots and the low travelchair sleep rite cots. I got the lower sleep rites for fitting inside my smaller tents, but in general much prefer the higher roll a cots for the reasons others have mentioned.
I really like them for sleeping on the boat, both side by side under the bimini top with my honey and solo with a Thermarest single tent cot that actually mounts on the cot itself. The solo tent also works for traditional ground mounting on either cot, with my dry bag under the cot/tent.
I'm curious. For those of you putting cots in tents, how do they affect the floor of the tent? I would be worried that it would wear holes in the floor.
I was worried about this as well but haven't had any issues. The roll-a-cot legs are about an inch in diameter, maybe more, with a plastic or rubber stopper on the bottom. I think under the right circumstances it could wear a hole, but under normal use it's been fine for 2 seasons. I bought some of the plastic disc floor protectors for furniture legs, about 4 inches in diameter, thinking that would help distribute the weight. They are a bit of a hassle and the cot will jump off of them easier than I'd like, so I haven't ended up using them much, although I'm sure they would alleviate any potential problems fairly well if I was just dedicated enough to use them all the time. As a caveat, I mostly use the cots with a middle of the line Coleman with a tarp style floor, rather than a fancy backpacking tent or similar. So the floor is more durable to begin with and the tent isn't super expensive, which means I don't really have much anxiety over it.
When I have the big six man tent I've put the cot inside with legs on the discs that are made for sliding couches/tables on wood floors. Alternatively tennis balls with a slit in them over the legs works as well. For a smaller tent and two cots, I saw an idea somewhere on here to set the tent up on top of the cots and then Paco pads on the inside.
I've definitely worried about this as well with my Roll a Cot and have a few small holes in my tent from it. I bring some flat planks of wood with a divot drilled in the top (to keep the legs on the wood more easily) now and it works great. Its great for sandy beaches without a tent too...keeps it from sinking. I've slept in the tent with a cot for around 100 days so far (using the wood planks) and no real signs of wearing through. Definitely couldn't say the same if I didn't use them.
I have a Marmot Limelight 3p and it works great for a roll a cot. When I sit on the cot, the top of my head is just clear of the roof of the tent. It has ~18" straight sides on it before curving in, so it works perfect with the cot. I have a few inches on each end of the Cot as well...and could definitely fit the extra long version in it. I've been really happy with the tent, but a few people I recommended it to have not loved it as much as I do.
I've definitely considered calling Camp Time and asking for a new pair of legs for it and cutting a few inches out of them to get a bit more room. I guess I could make my own too. I've seen a few guys who made their own adjustable legs too, which would be sweet. As it stands though...the Cot is more important to me then which tent I use, so I just make sure to purchase a tent that works with the Roll a Cot as it is.

With Google pushing into retail and Amazon into advertising, where should you invest your ad budget? Contributor Andreas Reiffen says it depends on what you're selling and how much you have to invest.
Talk in the digital advertising space has traditionally focused on Google and Facebook’s digital duopoly, each fighting for more of your advertising dollars. But for Google, the real competition is coming from elsewhere.
Over the last few years, Google has pushed further and further into the retail space. Simultaneously, Amazon expanded its advertising platform. In the end, they both want the same thing: your purchase intent.
As these two tech behemoths continue to get more and more similar, who will lead? And more importantly, what should you do about it?
We’re used to thinking of Google as a search engine. For advertisers, Google’s search engine results page (SERP) is composed of text and product (Google Shopping) ads. The popularity of these product ads with digital marketers has grown in popularity. According to Adobe’s Digital Index, spend on Google Shopping has surpassed that of text ads in every market.
This is especially true when it comes to mobile ad spend, for which, in our clients’ experience, Google Shopping is far more profitable. In the UK, for example, they spend around 74 percent of their mobile ad budget on shopping ads.
Due to the popularity and success of its shopping ads, Google has made a significant investment in their placement and prominence. The search giant’s rationale appears to be that product ads are more attractive to users, generating more revenue for retailers (and thus themselves).
It then threw a “purchase on Google” option into the mix. This allows shoppers to complete their purchase without ever leaving the Google interface. Google also started surfacing product ads for super generic search terms. This indicates that it wants to own the browsing aspect of online shopping, in addition to the purchase.
So, what is the net result? As Google has continued to experiment with ever larger and more prominent placements for its product ads, the product SERP has taken on a startling resemblance to an Amazon results page.
The two business models look set for a collision course. With the addition of a buy button, Google is attempting to become a retail marketplace. Amazon, on the other hand, has been expanding its sponsored product ads offering, which looks increasingly like an advertising platform.
Even more telling, Google just announced what it calls Shopping Actions and Google Express.
Shopping Actions allows users to create a universal shopping cart of items from multiple retailers. Once they have a full cart, shoppers then use a Google-hosted checkout service to pay for all items at one time. Google Express is their new foray into last-minute delivery. This is undoubtedly Google taking another swipe at Amazon and other large retailers’ market.
Both Amazon and Google have invested in logistics, too, although with an important difference.
With its recent leasing of 40 cargo planes and a $1.5 billion investment in a cargo hub to keep them, Amazon is opting to own logistics from end to end. It has also invested heavily in delivery technology with a fleet of drones and a doorbell that grants the delivery man access to your house.
Google is comparatively late to the logistics game, but it’s certainly making up for lost time. Under its holdings firm, Alphabet, it has purchased no fewer than eight robotics companies in the last few years.
Owning self-driving pioneer Waymo puts Google among the strongest players in the driverless car industry. True, it hasn’t turned this technology to last-mile delivery just yet, but it seems like a logical next step given Google’s trajectory.
The reality of today’s online advertising world is that it’s less a choice between online ad providers and more of a choice about how much to invest in each provider. That decision will likely differ depending on your market, product offering and whether you have your own brand or sell several.
As with anything in the performance marketing arena, you need to afford a good amount of trial and error before working out which channels work best for you. The most important thing when running your tests is to make sure you account for incrementality and margins. This will give you a true understanding of a campaign’s impact on your gross profits.
Our number one tip for advertising on Google is to ask yourself, “How different is our price for the same product from other vendors?” Our tests consistently show that the retailer with the cheapest price outperforms all the other vendors.
Changing the price of your products can massively impact your product listing ad (PLA) performance. For one retailer we work with, just a 5 percent price increase coincided with a 60 percent decrease in clicks.
On average, we found that lower-priced products drive performance across the board.
Depending on your situation, you may or may not be able to change prices to reflect the market on Google Shopping. Even if you can’t, you can use price competitiveness as a signal in your bidding.
For example, you wouldn’t want to bid very much (or anything at all) on products for which you aren’t competitive.
As a brand or retailer, making the decision whether or not to advertise on Amazon can be a tricky one. If you do decide to sell on the Amazon Marketplace, or to Amazon directly, you should take advantage of Amazon’s most popular pay-per-click (PPC) ad type, the Amazon Sponsored Product ad.
In contrast to Google Shopping, Amazon allows advertisers to decide which keywords they want their products to appear for on its search results page.
This gives back one of the most valuable options for advertisers: They can set up different campaigns for brand, generic and competitor keywords and test for sales incrementality.

Are you aware of new accounting guidelines for income statements and balance sheets under IFRS 16?
The airlines industry will be hugely impacted under IFRS 16 – the new guidelines to replace IAS 17 published by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) in January 2016. The main changes under IFRS 16 relate to how leases are treated on companies’ balance sheets and income statements. As the majority of airlines lease assets, it’s crucial they familiarize themselves with this new accounting standard due to come into effect from January 2019.
Under IFRS 16, what will be the main changes to a company’s balance sheet?
IFRS 16 ends the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for a lessee.
According to the new standard, all leases are treated in a similar way to finance leases applying the IAS 17 guideline.
Leases are capitalized by acknowledgment of the current value of the lease payments and showing them either as lease assets or as property or equipment.
If lease payments are made over time, the financial liability is charted and future lease payments are included.
What will be the main effect of IFRS 16?
The main effect of the new requirements will be a significant increase in lease assets and financial liabilities.
What are the main benefits of IFRS 16?
It’s beneficial because companies will be better able to determine whether a given contract is a lease or a service one and how it should be reflected in financial statements.
It will result in a more realistic image of a company’s assets and liabilities and more transparency around a company’s financial leverage and capital employed.
It will also provide a broader representation of data than was available under IAS 17, thereby giving superior insight into a company’s operations.
It will provide more industry transparency regarding leases as companies will measure assets and liabilities arising from leases more accurately.
Finally, it will facilitate more effective capital allocation by enabling better credit and investment decision-making by companies and investors.
More details on IFRS 16 in future posts.

Yacht delivery trip from Hoorn, Netherlands to Suffolk, UK aboard a Halberg Rassy 36, skippered by Simon Phillips with a first mate and a deckhand.
A new yacht for the owner, who contacted us to deliver his new vessel to the east coast. We were delighted to deliver such a nice yacht back across familiar waters to us in October / November 2013.
After joining the yacht in Hoorn, and going through our checklist before departure, it was apparent that everything on board was well maintained and in very good condition. Covering all saloon cushions and protecting the vessels woodwork, we set off on the first short leg towards Amsterdam. Although quite windy, we motored through the Maarkermeer to the sheltered marina called Sixhaven. Weather forecasts were not good enough for us to leave, being SW/W Force 7 and upwards! After a few days we were able to depart on a favorable forecast, which was good enough for a few days – the only high-pressure inbetween a series of lows. A short motor through the North Sea canal and out into the North Sea at Ijmuiden. Clearing the breakwaters, the main and headsail were hoisted and we motor sailed out and away from the coast.
A nice sunset was accompanied by an extra layer of clothing as temperatures were starting to drop noticeably. Clear skies associated with high pressures in the winter mean thermals!
The watch system quickly fell into place, some nice hot dinner and a sleep before being back on watch. Three hours each at night, with occasionally two people being on deck at times during busy periods, especially crossing the shipping lanes meant that we had a good rest before our next watch. My favorite watch from early in the morning meant seeing the sunrise approximately 20 miles off the Suffolk coast bringing with it lots of sea birds and the occasional seal. The wind was very light during the night, giving us not much choice other than to motor.
Navigating around the various sandbanks the North Sea is renowned for, the cranes at Felixstowe was soon off the starboard bow. Fond childhood memories of sailing around here in the past came to mind as we motored up picturesque River Orwell.
Berthing in the marina, the yachts new owners’ were there to greet us in and were very pleased with what we had done and of course their new yacht! Lunch in the yacht club was very pleasant with the owners. Finalising everything onboard, we set off to the train station for the journey back home. A very nice yacht to be on, with good weather for the crossing of the North Sea to Suffolk. A successful outcome for us all.

Winchester SX4 Waterfowl Hunter Semi-Auto Shotgun in Mossy Oak Bottomland is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 6.
The Winchester® SX4® Waterfowl Hunter Semi-Auto Shotgun has improved ergonomics over the previous SX3 model, being slimmer and lighter, with a slightly forward balance point for fluid swinging and follow through. Larger, redesigned operating controls (safety, bolt handle, and bolt release) and a larger trigger guard facilitate getting on target quickly, as well as safe operation. This SX4 Waterfowl Hunter features full-coverage Mossy Oak® Bottomland™ a darker pattern that blends into nearly any natural habitat, and excels at disappearing into flooded timber. An Inflex Technology™ recoil pad utilizes directional deflection to pull the comb down and away from the shooter's face, creating greater comfort and allowing for faster follow up shots. The SX4 uses Winchester's Active Valve System™ that automatically self-adjusts, allocating the exact gas pressure necessary to fire a wide range of 2-3/4"–3-1/2" hunting loads—critical for any semi-automatic shotgun used by avid waterfowl hunters who hunt multiple species in varied habitats. When firing heavy magnum loads gases vent upward and out of the Quadra-Vent™ ports in the forearm, further regulating bolt speed. The SX4 Waterfowl Hunter Semi-Auto Shotgun uses the proven Invector-Plus™ interchangeable choke tube system that works hand-in-hand with the back-bored barrel to reduce shot deformation and promote the uniform shot patterns you need to wallop birds at long range. A TRUGLO® fiber-optic front sight offers a precise sight picture in a variety of light conditions. A reversible crossbolt safety button is located on the rear of the trigger guard for quick access, and the trigger group easily drops out for field cleaning. Includes 3 chokes: F, M, IC.
Rated 5 out of 5 by MPNELLY from Reliable SX4 Bought this gun nearly a year ago mainly for waterfowl and turkey hunting. It originally caught my eye because of its price point and how it felt shouldering the gun (handled it multiple times at different stores). Not only did it pattern great out of the box, but it cycled every load no mater what size shell. From 3" turkey loads followed by trap loads to 3.5" goose loads, the gun never blinks an eye. The more I use it in the field the more I am a fan. I've picked up shells out of the mud, slapped them in as more birds came landing in, and still the gun cycled as other brands "clicked". It is also one of the softest shooting 3.5" chambered guns I have experienced, and swings extremely smooth for me with the middle weight balancing point versus a heavier barrel end. Whether the SX4 may be your 1st or last shotgun, its reliability will speak for itself.
Rated 5 out of 5 by 2Wingshooters from sx4 3" Realtree, 28" Great shotgun. Light weight, soft shooting, and fits perfect. Love it!!
Rated 2 out of 5 by Swiftspirit from Nice Gun BUT... I got one of the first Super X2's on the market in 2000 and have happily used it ever since. Finally upgraded to a Super X4. It's well balanced and swings well, but came from the factory with a defective safety which was DIFFICULT to fully disengage and frequently engaged itself after one or two shots from the very first shells I ran through it. Took it to the local factory authorized repair facility and they fixed it but said the manufacturer insisted that they shipped the gun with a good safety and wouldn't cover the cost of the repair. If you are thinking about getting one, I'd suggest budgeting for some repair work on the safety in addition to the purchase price!
Rated 4 out of 5 by Teleduck from Duck Gun I finally got to go duck hunting with my SX4. It performed well. I need to get used to not having to shuck in the next shell. The gun balance was nice and swung well. 3 1/2” shells help knock down late season geese at 35yrds.
Rated 5 out of 5 by gowolves7 from Great gun! I have owned the Super X2, Super X3 and now the Super X4, I have been impressed by all of them! Great shotguns working in all weather situations!

You are here: Home / Blog / Uncategorized / Should a Compensation Structure be Proactive or Reactive?
Should a Compensation Structure be Proactive or Reactive?
We recently had a potential client tell us that establishing a formalized compensation structure for their organization was only being reactive to the current government’s comparable worth push and they weren’t going to give in to this pressure. This company has been in operation for several years and has not felt the need to create a salary range structure based on job descriptions, job point ratings, employees’ pay data and outside market data.
It is our belief that a company, no matter the size, should have comprehensive ADA compliant job descriptions, a method to place an internal value on each position, and the ability to understand the current market pay levels within the organization’s geographical trade area. This proactive approach for compensation management comes with the following benefits.
Ability to identify any potential discriminatory compensation issues as relates to gender, ethnic background, age, hiring pay, promotions, etc.
Provides department managers with pay adjustment guidelines to assist with pay increases for performance, promotions, transfers, demotions, and outside the salary ranges. Promotes consistent and fare treatment for all employees.
Integrates several components (job point ratings, current employee pay levels and outside market data) to establish the salary range structure vs. outside market data only.
There are a significant number of classification and compensation audits being performed by several government agencies including Department of Labor, OFCCP, and EEOC. These agencies will request a copy of the organization’s job descriptions and employee data to determine if the company is complying with various pay and disability laws. Based on our knowledge, organizations that have taken a proactive approach to compensation management tend to fair better in these audits vs. those groups that don’t have a formal plan in place. In addition, when a discriminatory issue is identified, the company is required to create job descriptions and a formal compensation structure going forward as a part of the audit resolution. For us, this is reactive and tends to cost organizations more in the long run over the proactive approach of establishing a formalized job evaluation and salary administration program. If an organization does not have a solid defensible compensation management program in place, we can assist the company with the implementation of one and/or provide our DBCompensation software program for internal program development.

Joseph Henry Hudson, age 94, of Newark, DE passed away on March 22, 2019 at Seasons Hospice. Born in Wilmington, he was the son of the late Nancy E. (Hardin) and John F. Hudson. Joseph graduated from Brown VoTech and spent two years at Temple University. He worked as a plumber with the Local 74 until his retirement in 1986. Joseph was a member of St. Matthew’s Catholic Church.
Joseph is survived by his wife, Lorraine Hudson of Newark, DE; his sons, Stephen (Janet) Hudson of Dallas, TX, Mark (Paula) Hudson of Hodges, SC, Paul Hudson of Sarasota, FL, and David Hudson of Newark, DE; his grandchildren, Michele, Jennifer, Jeffrey, Anne, Marc, Robert, and Andrew; 7 great grandchildren; and his sister, Bess LeNoir of Wilmington, DE.
My sincere condolences to the Hudson family on the loss of your dear loved one. Death can bring so much tears and pain but may your memories bring you comfort in the days and weeks ahead and have comfort in God's promise found at Psalms 34:18. My deepest sympathy to you all during this difficult time.
My deepest condolences to the family for your loss. Our Heavenly Father Jehovah gives us a comforting thought when He tells us that soon death will be "swallowed up forever."

(John 5:28,29) I hope these encouraging scriptures can bring you some comfort during this difficult time.

In our latest look ‘Behind the Design‘ we’ve caught up with Vanessa Harris, who along with partner Steve Harris founded Harris & Jones, an innovative, design-led stationery and accessories business.
Vanessa has given us a sneak peek behind the scene; sharing the background of the business, as well as a closer look at the products and inspiration.
So without further ado let’s take a look behind the scenes of this exciting design business.
Tell us a little about Harris & Jones. Why did you start the business?
We hand make home and office accessories. We were inspired to start the business through a desire to create accessories that were both useful and beautiful and to create a family company to work around our life.
It is different every day and we are able to work in an environment we enjoy, with music on and our dogs at our feet. It is also different every day because we work for interior designers, luxury retailers, architects as well as customers direct via our website so you never know what the day will bring.
We are a team of six, all fitting in making our products around our family commitments. Plus the workshop dogs, Louis & Sasha.
What is a typical day like at Harris & Jones?
One moment, we might be working on a large trade order for a department store, the next we might be selling a keepsake box for a gift. We like to have a close relationship with our customers and particularly enjoy personalising special items.
We tend not to look at what is around already, we prefer to take the approach of “that would be really useful and we can make it look great too”. Take our desk top memo blocks available in small & A5 sizes. Filled with quality paper these are a great addition to any home or office space.
Tell us about your design style. What influences the look of your range?
We like to keep up to date with trends and new designers in interiors and design in general. We are lucky to have close relationships with lots of talented British designers but are always on the lookout for new things.
What is your favourite item in the Harris & Jones collection?
This style of product has not been made in the UK for many years but we really wanted to bring it back so had to start from scratch and figure out how to do it. We like the result and our customers have really embraced our take on an old classic.
Our Keepsake Boxes and Magazine Files are always popular. They make great gifts and easily add a bit of pattern and colour to a room.
We have some exciting collaborations with Nina Campbell, Jemma Lewis and Molly Mahon all being launched this spring.
Do you recall the first time you saw your designs in a shop?
We will always remember the day we were approached by a very unassuming man at a small craft fair who having reviewed our range said they would be perfect for his store. The following week we met him again at Fortnum & Mason and we have been supplying them ever since.
Our small team makes everything by hand using traditional techniques in our workshops. We specialise in offering bespoke options and customers can personalise each item if they wish.
We offer a range of finishes including a wipe clean linen finish.
Do the designs use Eco-friendly materials?
All our materials are sourced in the UK, as close to the workshop as possible. Everything is recyclable as our main materials are paper, board & recycled wood fibres.
We are still as small business but are growing organically. The website will evolve as we want to let customers “build” their own products for us to then make. Now wouldn’t that be great!.
Whether it be a small studio apartment or a luxury yacht sailing the Caribbean, as long as customers have a chance to choose exactly what they want, we are happy.
To find out more, shop, or stock the collection please visit the Harris & Jones website.

I made a new year's resolution this year to see a lot more birds. I got started right away yesterday with a trip to Tualatin River NWR. The temperature was about 25 F. I lasted a little over an hour before losing feeling in the fingers required to operate a camera.
And a Ruby-crowned Kinglet with a visible ruby crown!
After Ridgefield I planned to head out to Cascade Locks to find the Harlequin Ducks since I still had not seen any ever... They were exactly where someone said they were yesterday, between the Cascade Fish Hatchery and a foot bridge in Eagle Creek.
After stopping at home for lunch I figured I'd take the dogs for a walk along Broughton Beach and search for the Tufted Duck. It was a gorgeous afternoon though still pretty chilly. Luckily I remembered to double up on socks and gloves.
That is a great picture of the Goldeneyes. I am going to work on my "action" shots this year. They showed up nicely in your picture.
When you said your resolution was to see more birds, I thought: "How is that possible, she sees a s**tload as it is." Well you proved me wrong...you saw a ton this weekned! And that sunset probably made getting up early worth it! So pretty!
You really did well on your tour. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Very impressive photos - and your landscapes make me miss the Northwest - I lived in Portland a very long time ago.
Dont forget to pack the thermos with Hot Choco-latte!
Cool, Pipits. That's a bird I'd like to see.
Wonderful way to start the new year. Great birds and photos.
Super variety of birds and scenery Jen! A stellar way to start off the year!
Hi Jen. A wonderful start to your birding year and some great photos.

Perhaps we should just give money away?
Home / LATEST NEWS / Perhaps we should just give money away?
What can we really do to help businesses in the quieter months of January and February? Winter festivals certainly help and lighting up our town centres help make them feel more inviting on dark cold nights but if people really have no money to spend then this will only make a marginal difference.
So what’s the answer? I know! Give people money to spend in January and February! That would solve the problem – right?
Well I am not sure how many councils or Business Improvement Districts would sign up to such a programme but if they did I am sure it would be very popular with consumers and businesses!
There is another way though, what if we could encourage people to give each other a gift at Christmas that could only be spent in the local community after Christmas.
A local town/city gift card does exactly that and by using the existing Visa infrastructure it is very easy to implement and to run. In Scandinavia there are multiple towns that sell in excess of £500k of local gift cards every Christmas and the peak time for redemption is…January and February!
Imagine how much the businesses in your town/city/BID would appreciate this very visible spend at that time of year.
Now is the time to find out more about how you can create a local gift card programme for your town/city ahead of Christmas.

State Representative Ryan Spain co-sponsored House Joint Resolution 124 to adopt a revenue estimate to begin the budgeting process for fiscal year 2019.
“When I was sworn in as State Representative, I pledged to adhere to the US and State Constitution. Our State Constitution mandates the Illinois General Assembly set a revenue estimate and not spend more than we bring in as a State. In the time I have served in Springfield, the legislative majority has not followed these requirements, with terrible fiscal consequences,” critiqued Rep. Spain.

Sembrar/crecer - plant and grow. The rumors of agave's demise are greatly exaggerated. What is sometimes in short supply is the blue Weber, the only agave from which tequila can be made. Mezcal (of which tequila is but one subtype) can be made from about 30 different agave species. Pictured is a field of cultivated espadín belonging to my friend and talented mezcalero, Carlos Mendez Blas, owner of Palomo Mezcal. Espadín is popular because it is fast-growing, taking a mere 7-10 years to mature.
Cocinar/hornear - cook/bake. In this stage the piñas are arranged in a below-ground pit to be cooked for 3-5 days. In the artesanal process, the pit may be masonry lined, whereas in the ancestral method it must be earthen (no lining). The mezcalero selects the wood he wants—usually pine, scrub oak, or mesquite—and starts a hot fire in the bottom of the pit. The fire is then covered with volcanic rock to retain heat and prevent the agaves from contacting the fire. Once the fire has died back to coals, the agaves are piled on, then the whole thing is covered with tarps and finally earth (or bagasso-the remaining agave fiber from previous batches). Cooking the agaves breaks down starch (inulin) into sugars, carmelizes some of the sugar, and imparts flavor. Don’t call mezcal smokey, though. That onluy happens when a newby mezcalero rushes the process and the fire has not been left to die back long enough. Good mezcal is seldom smokey; while some smoke may be present on the nose, mezcal should primarily taste and smell of agave. That’s the point, and why it is almost always consumed joven, not aged.
Molienda - the grind/maceration. Cooked agaves are removed from the horno and ground. Everardo, who makes my tobalá, lets the piñas sit for several weeks before grinding. (He claims this allows the deep tobalá flavor to develop and as he is the 6th generatio to do it this way, I’m a believer.) Industrial mezcals (I’m looking at you, tequila) are not only steamed instead of cooked over wood, they are ground by machine into fine particles and then put through a diffuser which uses chemical solvents to extract sugars. Real mezcal, uses a horse-drawn tahona (the big wheel), sometimes a wood-chipper, or a canoa and mazo (canoe and mallet) to grind. Artesanal mezcals may use a wood-chipper or tahona. Most commonly, it’s the tahona. Ancestral mezcals must use either tahona or canoa y mazo. Ángel uses the canoa y mazo, which is grueling work.
What’s the difference in grind method and why does it matter? The more rustic the technique, the bigger the chunks of agave, the more sugar remains locked up, which changes fermentation time and, importantly, total yield. All of which goes to flavor. Sip a quality mezcal next to any major-brand tequila and you’ll know immediately that you’ve had your last tequila.
Fermentación. No translation needed. After the grind, the cooked, crushed agave is placed into large wooden vats called tinas. They are topped off with water and left to ferment with whatever yeasts are present in the local environment. After 5-10 days, depending on ambient temperature, a “mud” cap forms on the top of the tina and as it pulls away from the edges, the mezcalero knows it’s done and ready to be distilled. The undistilled, fermented liquid is delicious and is called tepache.
In this stage, like all the others, there is great opportunity to manipulate flavor. Type of wood used to make the tina, the age of the tina, the source and minerality of the water, the starting temperature of the water (which determines how quickly the yeast gets rolling), the area yeast species, the season of the year, and so forth. Some mezcaleros don’t use wood tinas. Their local custom is to use cowhide fermentacion vessels. No two batches of mezcal are ever exactly the same.
Pictured below is a mountain spring considered sacred. The devout make regular peregrinations to it for bathing, payer and collection for use at home. It is considered healing and it is used in Ángel’s ancestral mezcals. I’ll just write that again, because it still floors me: Ancestral production mezcal made with sacred spring water.
Destilación Part 1. Mezcal is, as far as I know, the most variable and complex spirit. Every step in its production presents another opportunity for variation. Distillation is no different. Artesanal mezcals are most often distilled in copper alembic stills. While it is permissible under CRM regulations to distill in stainless, nobody serious about their mezcal does this. Ancestral mezcals are distilled in clay. This means a high risk for loss in the event that the clay pot breaks. Clay pots are also smaller in volume and have to be made by hand. All of this adds to the workload. However, clay retains characteristics of previous mezcals and produces outstanding final products.
All mezcals are distilled twice (every so often you will see one distilled a third time, and raicilla is often distilled just once using a double alembic still) and during the second process the mezcalero cuts the puntas (heads) and colas (tails), keeping the cuerpo (body), or main portion of the distillate. The puntas are cut because these contain methanol, aldehydes, high alcohols and other undesirable fractions. The tails are cut because they tend to have sour flavors and are higher in water. When the body is done, it is usually quite high in alcohol--80% or more. This means that the mezcal has to be cut down. For most domestic (to Mexico) mezcals, this is done according taste, not a target proof. Many producers who export do not wish to reproduce labels frequently (having to update proof information), so they dilute for proof. (I just print a new label and put up with the approval process. It's important to me that I sell a product made to taste.) Dilution can be done with colas or water. I strongly prefer water because I can detect colas easily and I don't like them. Some people swear they prefer cola-cut.
Whatever your preference, mezcal is famous for not creating a hangover. Whether this is due to double distillation, the cutting out of congeners, or something altogether different, I can assure you from experience that there is some truth to this.
Destilación Part 2 - Traditional Production. Makers of mezcal fall into one of three categories of production method: mezcal, artesanal, or ancestral. This is per the regulatory framework laid out by the Consejo Regulador de Mezcal (CRM). Purists distinguish between traditional and industrial--the CRM puts a finer point on things. The CRM is a voluntary organization that is becoming more of a requirement than an option. If you want your product to be called mezcal, well, then—you gotta join. Mezcal is a denomination of origin like Tequila or Champagne.
The first CRM-recognized method of production is permissive and, while I don’t as a practice, criticize other mezcals, the beverages made this way are industrial garbage. We don’t discuss them beyond that and after this post I’ll have little to say about them. The category should not exist; it is the realm of autoclaves, diffusers, 36-40% ABVs, most aged mezcals, worms in the bottle, yellow colorings, and other nonsense. These producers are wasting agave. This is the mezcal that afficionados fear other people will drink as their first mezcal; they bring shame and ill-repute to the DO. Enough with that.
The CRM's Artesanal method is where the bulk of the good to great mezcals are coming from. Copper stills, tahona crush (chipper allowed, seldom used), relatively small batches (sub 5000 liters, anyway). Truly exceptional mezcals can be made under the artesanal framework. My favorite mezcalero is artesanal. But even within this category there is a great range in quality.
The CRM's Ancestral method requires tahona or canoa/mazo, unlined hornos and clay pots. The mezcaleros using the ancestral method are dedicated with a capital D. The still pots are small, the labor is intense, and the risk of breakage and loss is high. These mezcals tend to be on the better end of the quality range because if you’re making mezcal this way, you are taking great care to get it right.
Technical details. Clay pots are arranged as follows: complete pot on bottom, sometimes with a copper metal plate to protect against flame; double mouth pot on top; cooling metal condenser pot (montera) on top of that. The troughs of water in the photos are there to add and drain cool water to the top condenser pot. This is where it gets harder to describe (see photos): there is an aperture in the top clay pot from which extends a hollow reed called a carrizo. Beneath the condenser pot, there is an agave frond (penca) that collects the condensate (mezcal) and funnels it into the carrizo. Into the carrizo there is a sisal or other agave fiber cord that conducts the drops of distillate into a receptacle pot.
Envasar - bottling. Between producing the mezcal and getting it to market there are a number of stages involving lots of paper work, safety testing and, bottling. Of all these, the only thing remotely interesting is the bottling. In this process the mezcal, a rustic product (as you know by now), is filtered, put into bottles, the bottles labeled, corked, inspected and then and sealed with a hologram, indicating authenticity.
There are two steps. In the first step, mezcal is filtered of particulates then used to rinse the bottles--in other words, we use mezcal to wash the bottles. That mezcal (about 3 liters) is continually recirclulated through the filter and set aside afterwards to be either bottled by hand, or distributed in the gray market to friends. I have lucky friends. In the second step, the bulk of the mezcal is filtered and injected directly into bottles. The bottles are corked with a ruberized plastic cork because real cork dissolves in mezcal and taints the product. It is then bottled, the inspector comes to take a sample (matched up with a sample back at the CRM lab), and delivers the holograms for seal.
Disfrutar - Enjoy. I dislike "you're doing [something everyone does] wrong" and "how to [also something irrelevant] the right way" think pieces (I hate think pieces, in general), so this post is about traditional consumption of mezcal. There is no right way. However you like it, that's cool with me.
On with the show... Traditionally, mezcal has been served in one of three types of vessel--the jicara, which is a tree fruit husk, halved, hollowed out, and sun-dried; the copita, which means little cup; or the veladora, which is the glass votive candle holder familiar to all Catholics. In bars in Oaxaca, you will be served in a veladora about 70% of the time, the rest of the time in a copita--usually glass, but often ceramic, too.
At bars, the drink will be poured in your choice of 1 or 2 ounces, and accompanied by a plate of orange slices and a flavored salt. Increasingly, bars are getting creative with this. More fruits are showing up and the salt is getting interesting, too. The salt is nearly always sal de gusano, or "worm salt," which contains equal parts salt, ground chili and ground agave moth larvae. You will also encounter sal de chapulin, which substitutes grasshopper for the larvae. I have seen sal de jamaica (hisbiscus flower) in increasing frequency, too. But--and this is important--at mezcalerias, you will probably just be poured your mezcal and offered no accompaniment at all save a small glass of water. This is because it is presumed that if you are at a mezcaleria, it is because you wish to taste mezcal. One bartender explained to me that the traditional orange slice and salt was a way to cover mistakes in distillation. I'm sure there's a bit of truth in that.
On the subject of cocktails, there are two strongly divided camps. One says never do it, the other, why not--just make sure it's a good damn cocktail. I like the creativity in the cocktails that are being made, so... come at me, purists!
Last point: Oaxaca is a city of sybarites and the mezcalerias there are invariably among the most beautiful bars you will ever see. It is like going into an agave church. If you've never been, you should get to one soon. With friends. That's critical!

Today's news review looks at coverage of a report on children's social care.
Yesterday the The National Children’s Bureau published findings from the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) inquiry into children’s social care. The report claims the government failed to invest in children’s social care services, despite rising demand.
The report claims there is a shift towards helping children at crisis point, particularly those at risk of abuse, and away from proactively helping families in need of additional support.
This story was covered by ITV news last night, in the Guardian and on the BBC’s website today.
We are improving the focus on quality practice and introducing a practice-based career pathway through the introduction of the National Assessment and Accreditation System; this is about investing in continuous professional development and motivating individuals to invest in activities that will develop social work practice so that accreditation standards are met. Moreover, through the Children and Social Work Bill we will further strengthen protection for the most vulnerable children.
We want every single child, no matter where they live, to receive the same high quality care and support – and this is exactly what our reforms are set up to deliver. We are clear that providing help as early as possible is the most effective way of keeping children safe, and our new What Works Centre for children’s social care will ensure social workers across the country are able to learn from best practice.
We have been taking tough action where councils are failing children, stepping in when they aren’t doing well enough and linking them up with better performing local authorities or sector experts. We are also supporting the recruitment and training of social workers so they have the skills they need for this important job, investing over £800 million in bursaries and in programmes such as Frontline and Step Up.


text: Stability, in particular in outdoor sloped conditions, is one of the most important requirements for design safe and effective future mobile robotic platforms. In this work, the authors’ recent results on the study and development of an articulated mobile robot for agricultural and forestry activities in hilly/mountain environments are presented. First of all, a dynamic model for the stability analysis of a generic articulated platform has been designed and implemented. Then, different practical working conditions have been simulated to assess the stability of the system; possible stabilizing actions when travelling on a sloped surface on the steering angle, velocity and central joint have been finally evaluated and discussed.

Bergmannstraßenfest is a three-day open air street festival along Bergmannstraße in Kreuzberg. It boasts a multi-cultural atmosphere and lots of jazz music.
The Bergmannstraßenfest with its open-minded and multi-cultural atmosphere attracts tourists and locals alike. The festival offers international food delicacies, works of art, handmade items and much more. On several stages along Bergmannstraße, a number of performances ranging from children's theatre to comedy and jazz concerts entertain the crowd.
It is the jazz music that makes the Bergmannstraßenfest so very special and popular even outside Berlin. About 50 national and international bands and ensembles present jazz music on three stages: at the corners of Mehringdamm, Nostitzstraße and Zossener Straße. Hence, the Bergmannstraßenfest is also known as "Kreuzberg jazzt" ("Kreuzberg jazzes").

Do you enjoy quilting, sewing, crocheting, cake decorating, jewelry making, gardening or cooking? Do you enjoy learning new techniques for one of your many hobbies? Do you want to learn a new hobby?
If so, then you definitely need to check out Craftsy.com. I had heard about this website last year, but it was just a few months ago that I actually checked it out. I had received an email from JoAnn Fabrics that was advertising a Craftsy class about how to make your own bras. It wasn’t long before I had purchased a few of the classes and was looking through the other classes to see what I might like to learn.
The very first class that I watched was “Making Leather Bags“with Don Morin. I haven’t actually put this knowledge to use, yet, but I really enjoyed watching the class. We have AppleTV so I was able to watch the classes on our TV in the family room, but once I start trying to sew I can pull it up on my computer and watch it from my sewing room. Not only do you get easy-to-follow classes that you can watch at any time, but you also receive a list of materials, a list of sources, and whatever other information the instructor feels you need.
Craftsy is more than just online classes, though. It’s also a community. You can look at the numerous projects that other members have submitted under ‘Projects‘. Many of the projects are based upon various classes that were taken through Craftsy. Other projects are designs that the member created themselves and want to share. It’s a great way to get encouragement and inspiration.
Along those lines, you can also look at patterns that have been submitted and that you can purchase through the site. In the “Patterns” area you will find everything from crochet to quilting to sewing to various paper crafts. There are some free patterns that you can download as PDF files, which is great… and also kind of dangerous!
Finally, the area that I found last week and that I’ve been drawn to every day is the Blog. This is where you can enter various sweepstakes, get updated on contests that Craftsy is running, or where you can just get inspired. Yesterday I spent an hour looking at the various Cake Decorating entries despite the fact that I haven’t done any cake decorating in quite a few years. Today I found a free crochet pattern for a shawl that I am going to ask my mom to look at. If you’re into cooking, they have posts with recipes or posts that talk about different aspects of cooking that you might be interested in. Do you like quilting? There are tons of posts with free patterns, updates on new products, and posts from quilters who have something to share. Honestly, there is so much there that I can’t really give a good description of what you will find. I subscribe to the Sewing and the Wood working blog posts, but I can always go look at the entire blog and read about how to take good pictures with better poses for children. Seriously, on my lunch break the other day I spent the entire hour just reading through dozens of posts all on different topics.
Do yourself a favor… check out Craftsy. It will be worth your time!

Safe cracker: A zip-tie will keep KTM’s plastic clip from sliding down the wire retainer.
KTM’s air filter retainer keeps slipping down. This loosens the tension on the filter. Is there a fix?
Link: Linkage pull rods have loose needle bearings, not bushings.
450SXF shock linkage? I read that KTM doesn’t use roller bearings in their bikes, but instead they use bushings. Will these fit in an aftermarket shock linkage?
You are confused. The stock KTM link uses the same loose needle bearings as longer aftermarket shock linkages. KTM’s big-end and top-end bearings are plain bearings, but the shock linkage uses uncaged needles.

As the CEO of a company, you are officially the face of the company and what it stands to represent. Whether you like it or not, you are first and foremost the brand. If what the internet and the rest of the world think about you is bad, your company will suffer as an extension of you.
Most of the time this isn’t exactly your fault. Maybe one slight mistake in the past get overblown by bloggers and now your life and reputation are marred or maybe you are being personally attacked by a rival. But you have to do something about it. The longer the bad reputation stays active, the more your business suffers and the less likely you are to be successful with any social-related activity in life in general.
When your name is typed into the Google search bar, your LinkedIn profile will be one of the top ranking results. This makes you control one spot on the first page search results. If the first page results used to be polluted by bad comments about you, you have successfully pushed one down with your LinkedIn profile.
This is somehow like the above suggestion, but these are social media accounts. Once you set these up and have them visible on search engines, you can control more space on the first page of search results. You don’t necessarily have to use the accounts though.
With these in your possession, nobody else can use them to defame you. Do this as soon as possible before someone else snatches them up and uses it against you and your business.
This way you can create better content about yourself that promotes your image in a positive light. Using the best and up-to-date SEO practices, you can make your website and blog rank high in SERPs.
If you are a well-known person and people discuss you online, you have to monitor what is being said about you. You can’t afford to sit back and relax while defaming information about you is making rounds on the internet. Need I remind you how fast information travels online? You also have to keep generating new content about yourself, periodically.
Keep up-to-date profiles and explore the social media networks to ensure your name is not being dragged in the mud. This is extremely tiring for someone as busy as you are, and you can’t afford the hours every day to look into. That is why other CEOs in your position hire an Online Reputation Management Company.
When you can no longer continue searching your name on the internet and skim through thousands of texts about you on the internet, consider hiring a reputable Online reputation management agency to help you with that. At Cyber Controller, with 20+ years in the business and awards to our name, we are your best bet at a good online reputation.
