Three months into my PhD I have already begun to see the complications which occur when undertaking original research. A problem which has been limiting in the past but never as frustrating as during a PhD is the lack of organisation for research collections and unpublished archaeological reports. The main issue is that records are rarely, if ever, kept to track the changing location of resource materials. This results in a kind of detective game involving several museums, archive offices, and sometimes private organisations.
This digital quest usually involves several steps which ultimately end in emails between several departments of one organisation due to there being confusion over whether a report exists, if it's in their archives, or whether it's in a different museum entirely.
The Museum of London Centre for Human Bioarchaeology is a huge relief for the weary data scourer. Although not an exhaustive list of cemeteries, the museum holds a large collection of skeletal remains from around London for every time period, and there is extensive data available to download freely. More locally, the West Yorkshire Archives Service is a wealth of historical records for the area and is freely available to visit for research purposes. A fantastic example of a published site report is St. Martin's Uncovered: Investigations in the churchyard of St. Martin's-in-the Bull Ring, Birmingham, 2001. This volume not only covers all aspects of the site but contains appendices on a CD, with the original osteological analysis results sorted by skeleton.
Spending hours searching for resources has been an experience which has highlighted the importance of open access resources, well-informed websites, and the responsibility of authors to mention the location of collections after excavation. It also stresses the need for standardised approaches to recording the location of collections and resources, and for these records to be made available for researchers.

How entrepreneur Stephen Orso is reinventing the wheel
Stephen Orso is the embodiment of hustle. When everyone bobs, Stephen weaves. The investor, entrepreneur has never been one to take the traditional route. As early as high school, Stephen was involved in various entrepreneurial endeavors. In high school, Stephen started a high end sports memorabilia company; he used drop shipping and online marketing techniques before they were popularized in order to make over 200K before he graduated. At the young age of 17, Stephen illustrated that he was a force to be reckoned with by negotiating a deal with one of the largest sports memorabilia dealers in the world, JL Sports.
Beyond the fact that Stephen was on the front end of some of the most useful internet era sales techniques Stephen has always shown an ability to adapt and adjust. Growing up, Stephen was a baseball phenom, mastering the notoriously complicated knuckleball at a young age. Stephen's unique talent secured him personal training sessions with the great knuckleballer RA Dickey as well as a spot on the University of Maryland's Division 1 baseball team. Despite this great opportunity, Stephen saw a larger opportunity off the field. At the young age of 19 Stephen decided to forgo his baseball destiny and move back to NYC so he could pursue business opportunities while going to school.
Stephen quickly become both an entrepreneur and investor. In terms of entrepreneurship, Stephen started his own events management company and began partnering with prestigious clubs and restaurants all over the city. Before he was even 20 years old, Stephen solidified his brand as an essential NYC tastemaker, making a small fortune while doing so. During this time Stephen worked with Cipriani, 1 Oak Night Club, Tao Group, Marquee Night Club, Catch Restaurant & Club, and many more elite New York City brands. Stephen then leveraged his newfound network and legitimacy to into the independent music industry. Investing his own money, Stephen began discovering and helping artists develop their sound, pay for costs, and market their music. By starting his own record label, Stephen's, knowledge of online marketing, and access to elite NYC social networks gave him a unique ability to provide value in every aspect of an artist's creative and business process. Stephen helped start the careers of Bryson Tiller and producer phenomKBeazy, just to name a few.
As an investor, Stephen wanted to honor his life-long dedication to health and athletic performance. As an investor, Stephen was ahead of the curve with high quality yet health conscious food products. Stephen's been a long-time investor in Barely Bread, an artisan quality bread company that is certified non-gmo, gluten-free, paleo.. Stephen is also an investor in Flow Water, an 100% naturally alkaline spring water company, making him co-investors with Gwyneth Paltrow and Shawn Mendes. Despite Stephen's commitment to health conscious companies, Stephen likes to diversify his portfolio. He's producing a new mini series focusing on fine dining, influential chefs, and unique food creations. This project has actually received some recent press in the London Daily Post. Despite being a newcomer to film and tv, Stephen's experience investing in the food & beverage industry as well as his business acumen all but guarantees his future triumphs in the culinary & health film world.
When asked about the current climate and his next moves, Stephen responded, "you have to be able to be flexible. Right now our artists are utilizing tools like IG Live, Twitch, and Periscope to develop a closer relationship with their fans." Beyond helping his artist seize the moment, Stephen is seizing the moment in his personal life as well. It has been reported that Stephen arned major profits by shorting the stock market before the economy shut down he won big on bets like buying stock in Peleton, Zoom, Netflix, and Starbucks pre-shut down.

Nissan is a dealership that gets straight to the point. Our experienced sales staff are here to serve you, and we do so by getting you behind the wheel of a car as well as answering any questions you may have. We understand that you might have questions that you may be too embarrassed to ask. Thankfully, we're here to help.
What happens when the bulb burns out is that the overall voltage powered through it decreases. This makes the circuit's workload lighter, which allows it to make the light blink faster. It works as both a cue to fix your signal light as well as a reminder of how cool science can be!
These engines are both designed to create more power by burning fuel quicker. The Supercharger, as well as the Turbocharger, use a compressed air system to power up the vehicle's engine. The Supercharger connects directly to the engine using a compression pump. While this means your power level is more consistent, it also means that you will get less power and compression when your engine is at a lower RPM. The Turbocharged engine uses the gas from your exhaust to generate its power, which allows it to reach higher levels of compression without having your RPMs redlined. With the turbocharged engine, the connection isn't linked directly, so there is a bit of a "turbo" lag that comes with it.
You should check your tire pressure regularly, according to your owner's manual, maybe even as often as you stop for gas. However, this may be overly cautious because, after all, most vehicles nowadays come with a tire pressure monitoring system. Whether your vehicle has this safety feature or not, you still should check your tire pressure once a month. Tires are expensive, so keeping your tire pressure at the levels they need to be will help ensure your investment is worth it.
Transmission specialists say that you should change your transmission fluid once every 2 years or every 50,000 km, whichever comes first. Here at West End Nissan, we advised constant upkeep on all of your fluids. We adhere to the experts and say that every 50,000 km is the appropriate time to change your transmission fluid.
Yes, premium gas does make your car run better because it has a higher octane level than regular gas. What a higher octane does is give you a faster compression ratio, which increases performance output and fuel efficiency. The only downside is that premium gas is more expensive than regular.
Have any more questions? Come into West End Nissan today and talk to our knowledgeable staff.

Address: 109, Bosra, Syria.
Bosra Citadel
Bosra Citadel lies in the city of Bosra in Syria.
Bosra Citadel is a peculiar building. It started out as a Roman amphitheater which was built in the late 2nd century. It can accommodate something between 9000 and 15,000 spectators. Probably during the reign of the Umayyads (7th and 8th century) all the portals of the amphitheater were walled up.
During the time of the Abbasids the building was used as a refuge. After the Seljuk Turks had conquered Damascus and the surrounding area in 1076, they were the first to transform the building into a real citadel. Two staircases were built into towers and all openings were walled up.
Around 1202/03 Bosra Citadel was strengthened once more by the Ayyubids under Saladin's brother; Al-Adil. Up to 9 massive square towers were built around the inner core of the citadel projecting from blind ramparts. The entire complex was circled by a deep ditch. Inside an iron-bound gate, a series of vaulted rooms, twisting passages, rampart walks and all kinds of defensive works were built. Building material was taken from the remains of the antique Roman city behind it, as you can see from the sections of pillars used to strengthen the walls of the towers.
After the death of Al-Adil in 1218, his son as-Salih Ismail used Bosra Citadel as his residence until 1246. In 1260 the citadel was given over to the Mongols without a fight. Not much later the Mongols were driven out by the Mamluk Sultan Baibars. He restored the citadel and stationed a garrison there. This garrison continued its existence well into the Ottoman Empire and even in 1897 consisted of several hundred men.
During the 20th century the Syrian Department of Antiquities restored the Bosra Citadel and uncovered the Roman theater by removing all the medieval additions inside it.
At present Bosra Citadel can be visited for a small fee. It's a great and unique mix of a military citadel and a Roman amphitheater. You can freely explore all the hallways and rooms, recommendable.


Governor of Ohio, John Kasich met with Saint Anselm students at a luncheon in the New Hampshire Institute of Politics on Nov. 15.
Kasich was elected as Ohio's governor in 2010, and was re-elected in 2014. He well known nationwide for running in the Republican Presidential primary in 2016, against Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Donald Trump, among others. He was the last Republican candidate to suspend his campaign, ceding to current President Donald Trump.
Kasich's visit to New Hampshire has sparked questions of his political future. His term as governor will end in January, and he will not be able to run again due to his term limit. Historically, candidates have often come to New Hampshire before announcing a presidential campaign, which has lead many to believe Kasich's visit may hint at a 2020 presidential campaign.
Saint Anselm students responded to these campaign assumptions at the luncheon. Once Kasich opened the floor up to student questions, sophomore politics major David Micali immediately asked, "Are you planning on running in 2020?" to which the audience erupted in laughter.
He followed this statement by saying, "What I don't want to do is to go back into it again and then diminish my voice," referring to his 2016 loss.
Despite quickly shutting down campaign rumours, his following comments hinted at the potential for a future race. Junior politics major Christian Damian asked the governor if he thought an independent candidate could win a presidential race in her lifetime. Kasich turned the general question toward himself, and spoke of the many Democrats who tell him that they "like" him, despite the fact that he is Republican.
Kasich also expressed his excitement regarding the recent midterm elections. He said, "The public has rejected victimization and name calling that we see. People have been saying 'I've had enough of what I'm hearing.'" Kasich alluded to the country's leadership under Trump and has been a known critic of the President. He also stated that he found the results of the midterm elections to be very encouraging for the country.
Kasich's visit to the college was one of three public appearances he made over a two day span in New Hampshire. On Nov 14, Kasich attended a private dinner with supporters from his 2016 campaign. In addition to Thursday's luncheon, he attended a media event with press and supporters at the office of former New Hampshire Attorney General, Thomas Rath.
That night, he spoke at the Nackey S. Loeb School of Communication's First Amendment event held at the Palace Theater in Manchester. According to the school's website, the event recognizes New Hampshire residents and organizations who work to protect the First Amendment's right to free speech and free press.
Kasich echoed the First Amendment event's ideals in his remarks to Saint Anselm College students. Upon first entering the West Wing filled with around 30 students and faculty members, Kasich reflected on the numerous photos of political leaders that lined the halls of NHIOP.
While Kasich did not confirm where his political future would lead him, the visit was certainly an exciting opportunity for students.


Article Summary: "A few paragraphs of poetry and prose that ponder nature as a metaphor for change..."
Sitting in the park today, I realized how much nature is a part of all our lives. The oak trees were ripe with falling acorns, the wind blew gently across my neck, as the sun beat strongly on my forehead. I quietly pondered my existence as I watched children play on see-saws and jungle gyms. Their giggles filled me with wonderment at the whole process of growing up, growing old, almost all in an instant.
It seems like just yesterday I was climbing trees myself and swimming in deep cool suburban pools. I never thought I'd have grey hair or wrinkles or sagging belly. It's life's cruel joke that we must all take in stride. What choice do we have? The more we fight against the inevitable, the more we make ourselves unhappy. The green hazy shades with their spotty mystery take my attention away momentarily from my musings. How many parks have I sat in? How many days have gone by? How many do I have left?
Whether the days are long or come the winter, short, they whisper a little joke to me. They say, "We will always be here, but you will not." Perhaps, one day, I will become part of the very days I count. I am the day, and I shine down upon another poet resting his weary legs on a bench. I am the day, I say: here I am, here I stay. Days eternal, not knowing a finite conclusion to all my thoughts and my dreams. Over so quick , try as I might.
Sweet days of failure, sweet days of success. Expressions of loneliness, written in sweat. One day, two, a hundred I regret. Yes, I am the day, my friend, I am the light, not knowing pain, but also no delight. To be human, is to live, hard and free, from the moment we're born, the world knew me. Alas, it begins again, every moment in time, but not for me, I am old, and days are like leaves. In Autumn they fall, from tall, ever-wise trees.
Sentiments abound here, but what I want to say to all is be happy, hug someone today, be kind, and do your best. For one day, for all of us, it comes to a rest.

Story of historic African-American fraternity told through University Archives
Posted on August 29, 2018 by Ashley Gosselar at the Special Collection Research Center
The University of Chicago's Iota Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. is celebrating its centennial this year. Established on February 9, 1918, the African-American fraternity initiated members who went on to high achievement in law, education, medicine, politics, and more.
Members of Iota Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi, pictured in the 1957 Cap and Gown yearbook
Kappa Alpha Psi member Aaron Williams published a history of Iota Chapter in the Winter 2017 issue of the fraternity's Journal, chronicling Iota Chapter's struggles with campus housing and restrictive covenants, and its exclusion from the Interfraternity Council (IFC). Williams also writes about Iota Chapter's residence at 4752 South Ellis, its repeated win of the IFC Sing cup, and the academic experiences and distinguished careers of 54 of its members.
Williams drew upon archival resources at the University of Chicago Library's Special Collections Research Center, as well the Vivian G. Harsh Research Collection at the Chicago Public Library, the fraternity's archive, and interviews with alumni. The article cites archival issues of The Chicago Maroon and The Cap and Gown, and highlights photographs from the University of Chicago Photographic Archive that feature members of Iota Chapter.

Watch Dr. Christina von Nolcken discuss a rare Canterbury Tales manuscript in Special Collections
Posted on October 31, 2017 by Ashley Gosselar at the Special Collection Research Center
Professor Emerita Christina von Nolcken went live on Facebook on October 31, 2017 to teach viewers about a rare Canterbury Tales manuscript in the Special Collections Research Center. The manuscript, also known as the McCormick manuscript of the Canterbury tales, is one of the 57 relatively complete manuscript copies of Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and one of two containing a passage from the "Tale of Melibeus." Dr. von Nolcken connects the manuscript to the history of the Chaucer Research Project at the University of Chicago. The records of the Chaucer Research Project, as well as other medieval manuscripts acquired for the project, are available for research at the Special Collections Research Center. This video is one in a series of videos of UChicago faculty discussing their favorite items in the Special Collections Research Center. See Dr. Mindy Schwartz describe a 19th-century surgical kit and Dr. Ada Palmer discuss a Renaissance astronomy text.

Platzman Fellows at Work: Finding Manuel
Posted on February 9, 2016 by Special Collections Research Center
This post is written by 2015 Platzman Research Fellow Oenone Kubie. Kubie is a PhD candidate at the University of Oxford. She visited SCRC this past summer to consult the papers of Ernest Burgess, Grace and Edith Abbott, Julius Rosenwald, Robert Park, and others, for a study of "Boys' Street Culture in Chicago, 1900-1929." Below is her reflection on her time using some of these collections and their relation to her dissertation. To apply for this year's Platzman Fellowship, apply by February 15.
On the face of it, one would probably expect the source base for my project, Boys' Street Culture in Early Twentieth Century Chicago, to be extremely limited. Piecing together and examining the experiences and subcultures of Chicago's working-class and immigrant boys of a century ago may be interesting, but surely this subclass of an already disadvantaged class must be all but invisible in the archives. After all, one must often read archival material against the grain to conduct a history of the childhood of even the wealthiest and most affluent families. It is lucky for me, then, that I am far from the first scholar to be interested in the lives of early twentieth century Chicago's boys.
The archives at the Regenstein Library are full of the research and reports conducted by Chicago School sociologists, much of it regarding the lives of working class and immigrant children. The favoured method of research, at least by the 1920s, was the life history. Life histories were biographies of individual cases from which, scholars hoped, broad trends could be identified. They were collected either through interviews or by asking individuals to write their own autobiographies, usually with the aid of prompt questions. Of course, these sources come with a whole host of methodological problems – from the power relations of the interviewer and subject to the typicality of the boys' lives – all of which are compounded by the fact that the subjects are either children or they are adults reminiscing about a childhood ten, twenty, or more years ago. Nonetheless, used critically and in conjunction with other sources, these life histories are undeniably among the most useful sources for projects like mine. The stories they tell are rich with detail and are moving, captivating, and even amusing.
Here let us look briefly at just one life history: the story of a nine year old Mexican-American boy, growing up in Chicago in the late 1920s and early 1930s.[1] Manuel (almost certainly not his real name) was the child to Mexican immigrants. He was born in 1924 and moved to Chicago at the age of 2. In Chicago, Manuel and his family moved every couple of years between different neighbourhoods. Firstly they moved to Brighton Park, then when Manuel was four, to Little Village, two years later they returned to Brighton Park and, three years after that (1933), to the boundary between Pilsen and Little Italy. These areas now all have large Mexican-American communities, and are still known as common ports of entry to immigrants from Mexico.
Manuel's story attests to what life was like as a young Mexican-American in Chicago in the early twentieth century. Manuel thought of himself as different to both the "white" and the "colored" boys: a distinction both groups seemed keen to enforce. When Manuel and his family moved to Little Village, Manuel remembered that he was one of very few Mexican boys in the neighbourhood at that time. He recalls that he was lonely, the white boys not allowing him to play with them. Later, he would go to the Foster School in Little Italy where, Manuel claimed, the Mexican boys had to group together or they risked being beaten by the African-American boys. Manuel wrote of his equal dislike of the black children saying that, although he occasionally played with some, they were mean and lied a lot. On the other hand, Manuel dreamt of becoming a white boy: "Sometimes I even don't like myself. I would like to be a white boy and look like Ken Maynard". Maynard came from champion rodeo riding to become one of the most popular actors in early the Westerns of the twenties and thirties. To Manuel, and others, he symbolised adventure, virile masculinity, but also desirable whiteness which Manuel consciously contrasted to his own, Mexican heritage.
Drawings by Manuel, from Ernest Burgess Papers, Special Collections Research Center
Manuel wrote of his relationship with his Mexican heritage by talking of his Spanish-speaking parents. He could speak, read and write Spanish but, despite his mother and father often playing them, Manuel knew no Mexican songs. Instead, he preferred songs such as 'Shuffle off to Buffalo' (the soundtrack to 42nd Street, a popular musical from 1933). Manuel was particularly scathing of his mother who spoke no English: "My mother knows nothing about American things. She only knows about Mexico. I know more about things than she does". Despite this, Manuel is keen to follow the career his parents want for him and to become an artist. His story ends with a couple of drawings, one of an 'Indian' and one of a sailor.
Manuel's life history was probably taken in 1933 or 1934. What became of Manuel afterwards, I don't know, however, he would have turned 18 in the summer of 1942 and, thus, would probably have been drafted into the US Armed Forces. This life history is just one of hundreds the Chicago School sociologists took in the twenties and thirties although one from just a handful of Mexican-American boys asked to participate. Nonetheless, Manuel's story demonstrates the capacity these histories have to share the experiences of those whose voices are typically missing in the historical record. We can get a glimpse of Manuel's life, his relationships, his struggles and his hopes.
I'm excited to look over the material I have gathered during my summer at the University of Chicago and am grateful to the Special Collections at the Regenstein Library for funding my trip through the Robert L. Platzman Memorial Fellowship and also to the staff for the help they offered me while I was visiting the archives.

SCRC Sources Used in Emilia Mickevicius's Award-Winning BA Paper
Posted on May 12, 2011 by Special Collections Research Center
Men of Santa Anna, The Mexican Portfolio, no. 5, 1933
Emilia (Emmy) Mickevicius, a fourth-year student in the College, has been awarded the Robert and Joan Feitler Prize for Art History by the Department of Art History. The prize is given for the outstanding Bachelor of Arts paper by a senior student.
Ms. Mickevicius's work is titled "Paul Strand's Peopled Landscapes: Re-reading Form and Politics in The Mexican Portfolio and Beyond." She explains that "When I set out to do my research, I thought what remained to be illuminated in Strand's oeuvre was the relationship between his still and moving images of the 1930s, for example, how they informed one another to forge what I believe became his distinctive political aesthetic. What I found was that The Mexican Portfolio in particular, far from being incongruous within Strand's career as a modern photographer, both functions as showcase for his efforts to formulate this new aesthetic, and prefigures his cultural studies and films in years to come."
Near Satillo, The Mexican Portfolio, no. 1, 1932
Emmy notes that she settled on her topic before realizing the Special Collections Research Center, where she also works in the digitization unit, has a rare copy of the first edition of The Mexican Portfolio (250 were printed, under the title Photographs of Mexico, before another 1000 copies were printed again in 1967). As she puts it, "Imagine how excited I was when I realized that my main object of study was held only a few blocks away from my apartment!"
Strand's exemplary early work has become canonical in the history of modern American photography and modernism as a whole. He is usually associated with the earlier prints he made under the mentorship of Alfred Stieglitz in the mid-1910s, but in the 1930s, shifted from geometrically ordered, singular prints to films and to cultural "portraits" in the form of portfolios and books. The projects Strand completed in Mexico in particular signify the fruition of an investment in social causes sparked earlier in his career. His 1933 photographs of the native Tarascan people marked his return to the human figure, a subject he had largely shied away from for the better part of the 1920s. His film Redes (The Wave) was also the first of his socially motivated films, a venture he would continue upon his return to the United States in the later part of that decade.
2012 Robert L. Platzman Memorial Fellows Named
Posted on April 20, 2011 by Special Collections Research Center
Fourteen scholars have been awarded Robert L. Platzman Memorial Fellowships for use between January 1 and December 31, 2012. The short-term grants provide support for visiting researchers; this year's group will consult printed and archival collections in a wide range of disciplines including anthropology, the history of medicine, sociology, literature, rhetoric, and history. Among the projects are a biography of Allison Davis, the work of Sol Tax, late eighteenth-century Kentucky politics, the black campus movement from 1965 to 1972, and changing attitudes to married women's work.
Two of the scholars were named to honor past University of Chicago Library curators: Daniel Ellis, Assistant Professor, Department of English, St. Bonaventure University, will consult the Sir Nicholas Bacon Collection of Court and Manorial Documents for a study of "The Tudor Statesman at Home: Political Orators and the Rhetoric of Domesticity." He will be the Hans Lenneberg Fellow in honor of the Library's distinguished Music Librarian. Adam Shapiro, NSF Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Medical History and Bioethics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, who will study William Paley's thought and writings from the late eighteenth-century to the present day, will be the Robert Rosenthal Fellow, named after the founding curator of Special Collections.

The photos of the journal pages had been acquired by a fluke of opportunity. It had been a young man's prank when her father had just finished college. His friends had dared him to find a way inside the Ransom estate and bring back pictures to prove he had done so. Surprisingly, he had returned with more than he could have ever guessed. It was from that young man's dare that his hunger for more knowledge about the Ransom experiments had grown.
On that long ago night when he had first shown her the yellow envelope Korrie hadn't understood the fierce, haunted expression on his face. But a year later, when she sat before that fire and read the journal entries for the first time, that same burning desire had begun to build inside her as well. And now she was the only one left to make her father's deepest desire come true.
He said on that night when he'd entered the empty house, not long after the fire that had claimed the Ransoms' lives, he'd had an eerie feeling, as though he was being watched. To his way of thinking the journal had been revealed to him for a reason. He hadn't dared try to take the journal with him, fearing he would be caught red-handed, but he'd wanted to return because he knew there had to be more. And there were ghosts in the house, h e was certain of it and it was they who had led him to discovery of the private journal. Would they have done so, he reasoned, if they hadn't wanted the secrets of the estate to be revealed?
Somehow, along the way, as happens with life, he'd been sidetracked, but he'd never forgotten. And neither would Korrie.

Conversion Rate professionals generated $1 million for Moz with a single landing page, an attractive call to action, and a few emails.
But even if you do not make that amount, a very high converting landing page can be the cornerstone of a successful internet business.
Landing pages are a critical part of any internet-based business. You can't just publish a blog post every week hoping to capture new business; you need to capture the readers that come to your blog to read those posts.
Landing pages are also one of the best options when it comes to efficiently getting people's email addresses. And, while landing pages generally have a higher conversion rate than ordinary blog posts or generic pages, landing page conversion rates can differ dramatically.
The typical landing page converts at about 5 -15 percent, but some landing pages that are very optimized convert at 30 percent or above.
They are too difficult to create and/or consume a lot of time.
They've never achieved incredible conversion rates in the past.
They have no idea how to systematically enhance their landing pages.
All these problems can be solved with some good landing page tools that'll help you get up and running so you can get to the next step, A/B testing.
Here, I've compiled a list of the best tools that'll make it easier for you to build great landing pages.
When you want to make a landing page for your business, you normally have just a few available options. You can either hire a developer (which will be expensive), or you can try creating one yourself.
However, if you lack the technical expertise, your landing page won't turn out to be so good; and even if you do have the experience, you're still going to spend a lot of time creating it.
But there are lots of tools that let you use predefined templates and allow you to edit in whatever messages and features you'd like. So instead of spending hours building a landing page, you can use a template and customize it in a matter of minutes.
The first and probably most familiar landing page tool among internet marketers is Leadpages. The majority of the pro bloggers that you're following probably use this landing page builder.
Leadpages is primarily a landing page builder, however, the higher tier plans give you access to advanced content creator features such as Leadboxes and A/B testing (more about this in a second).
Not only does Leadpages have a massive selection of templates, you can also sort them by their expected conversion rates. This is why it is seen as one of the best landing page tools on the internet.
Note: These conversion rates are based on past performance and are not indicators of what your actual conversion rate will be.
With Leadpages, most of the templates aren't free to use. They typically cost an extra $10 to $15 each, which adds a lot to the cost. But in my opinion, they are well worth the price.
And while Leadpages's page editor is quite robust, it is still fairly easy to use.
This pop-up is called a "Leadbox" which comes with every Pro Leadpages account.
These pop-ups can be configured to show when a visitor clicks a link in your blog content, which is why they are often used for content upgrades.
For more on Leadboxes, check out this article.
Leadpages vs. OptimizePress: Which One Is Better For Creating Landing Pages?
Running for over 3 years now, ClickFunnels has been a proven leader in the internet marketing world.
Unlike other landing page builders, ClickFunnels is meant for creating different types of marketing funnels.
Essentially, it's a series of pages your website users pass through to reach your desired goal.
A basic Lead Capture Funnel can be made up of 2 pages which captures a website visitor's email and then redirects them to a simple "Thank You Page" upon signing up.
Or you could also have a more advanced sales funnel that consists of multiple pages which sells to a visitor at every step of the funnel.
Just like other landing page builders, ClickFunnels comes with its own stunning set of pre-made templates for all the different types of funnel it allows you to build.
However, you can also build your landing pages from scratch using the ClickFunnels Editor.
With the ClickFunnels Editor, you can easily put together different pages of your marketing funnel via point and click.
No coding is required to use ClickFunnels, and anyone can easily use it to design something seductive in a matter of minutes.
You can effortlessly move elements around and position them where ever you want – this is something that is not allowed with the Leadpages editor.
You also have the opportunity to try it for 14 days before deciding to buy.
Thrive Architect is a powerful landing page builder for WordPress that comes with a simple drag and drop editor and a huge selection of pre-made templates for different purposes.
You can pretty much customize almost any aspect of a landing page with Thrive Architect.
The problem with most similar WordPress plugins is that even though you have a great selection of templates to work with, you'll soon realize that they are not consistent.
For example, your opt-in form looks different than your thank you page which looks different from your upsell page, etc.
Well, that's the way most landing page plugins work – but not Thrive Architect.
Their landing pages are built in sets to make sure your visitors always get a consistent experience all throughout your entire sales funnel.
Like most other page builders, Thrive Architect gives you access to themed sets. That means that you have an entire landing page set dedicated to lead generations, online courses, webinars, podcasts, etc.
If you're looking for a reliable, mobile-responsive, and affordable landing page tool, you should really give Thrive Architect a test.
Full-width layouts supporting every WordPress theme.
Build custom page layouts starting from a completely blank page.
Almost every aspect of your landing pages is customizable.
Edit both posts and pages.
Works with almost every email marketing service provider.
…And lots of other mouth-watering features.
What if you could build beautiful squeeze pages, sales pages, membership sites, blogs, and even more, in just a couple of minutes?
Well, this is exactly what OptimizePress will do for you.
OptimizePress is a WordPress theme and plugin for building membership sites and landing pages without having any knowledge of coding.
For over two years now, OptimizePress has revolutionized the way internet marketers sell their products online.
Even if you've never heard of this amazing page builder before, I'll bet that you've recently visited a website that uses it. OptimizePress is used in most of the squeeze pages, product launches, and membership sites that I've come across in the last couple of years.
Like all the other page building tools I've mentioned here, OptimizePress is super easy to use, and it's very mobile responsive.
It also has a whole lot of templates to help you design any kind of landing page you want.
Lots of page templates available.
Advanced editor which allows for smooth customization.
You have access to the Optimize Marketplace where you can find extra templates. This includes both free and paid templates.
Huge selection of elements you can include on your landing pages.
Both plugin and theme version available.
Features a membership plugin (based on the S2 member plugin with some tweaks).
Instapage is one of the most popular landing page creators on the internet.
Even though this landing page builder is super cheap, it has almost all of the same essential features that the big guns in the industry offer.
With this tool, you can easily drag and drop your desired elements in and out of your landing page, as well as edit them just by simply clicking on them.
It also has a built-in A/B split testing feature so that you can fully optimize the conversion rate of your page after you've created the first version.
Interestingly, I think the Instapage page editor is easier to use than most of the other builders out there. However, this can be either a good or a bad thing, depending on your skillset and needs.
Instapage are also very responsive, so you don't have to worry about your mobile users.
If you're not so technical, Instapage's simplicity is going to be really helpful for you. Interestingly, you can still achieve 99% of the same things the more technical tools offer.
However, if you're like me and love having total control over everything, you'll probably be more satisfied with another tool that offers bigger customization options.
They also let you publish your page on their own domain (e.g. Instapage.com/your-sample-page) which I don't recommend.
If you choose "Custom Domain", they will offer you an option to integrate your domain with your Instapage account so you can publish the landing page directly to your website.
You only have to set this up once for each domain.
You can also use Instapage's WordPress plugin. It lets you synchronize your landing page from your Instapage account to your website in just a few clicks.
Instapage is probably the best option for a small budget.
One of the best and most widely used landing page builders out there is Unbounce – named to imply that visitors to their landing pages convert instead of "bouncing".
Just like the others mentioned here, the reason that Unbounce is so simple to use is that it's a drag and drop editor. This makes it perfect for newbie and non-technical marketers.
You can simply select elements (images, text boxes, videos, forms, etc.) from the side menus and drag them into any section on your landing page based on what you want. And, of course, you can also edit them afterward however you want.
Another essential feature of Unbounce is that every landing page you create with it will be very responsive.
With the mobile responsive feature of Unbounce, visitors will see the landing page as it was intended, whether they are on a mobile device or a laptop.
Like many of the others, Unbounce also lets you conduct A/B split testing to know what works best in terms of conversion.
With a landing page tool like Unbounce, you no longer have to worry about not being a tech whiz, as you will simply drag, drop, and edit any field based on what you want. It is basically a visual editor in how you design a landing page.
While you can actually design your page from scratch, this would be time-consuming.
Instead, you can use one of the templates that were built by someone else. As you can see in the screenshot above, other Unbounce users can vote on their favorite templates, so you'll see the very best converting landing pages first.
Landing pages are critical for a successful internet business. They are undoubtedly the best means of acquiring a prospect's information and further moving them down your sales funnel.
However, if you're not yet building your own landing pages because you think it's too time-consuming or too tedious, you're really neglecting the enormous power they potentially hold.
In other words, if you're not making high-converting landing pages, you're leaving a lot of money on the table.
And you should never do that.
Which one of these landing page builders is your favorite? Which ones have you tried and which ones would you like to try? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
This is awesome checklist. I have saved it offline. I think, it's time to implement this secret strategies before it went viral.
Thanks, for your valuable tips.I would like to say a lot of thanks for these knowledge sharing tips….!

Today, December 3, is International Day of People with Disability and Bega APM Disability Employment Services celebrated by throwing a morning tea event for a wonderful community of people who have accessed or been in touch with their services. It is an internationally observed day aimed at increasing public awareness, understanding and acceptance of people with disability. Bec Mackinnon who works for APM in Bega said the morning tea was a special occasion to highlight the diverse community of people she works with on a daily basis. Their service helps people to access support over an entire year and assists people living with a disability who can often face additional challenges when trying to seek employment due to physical or mental barriers. "Probably the hardest barrier to overcome for them is taking that first step. Some of them haven't had an interview before or a phone conversation with a potential employer," said Ms Mackinnon. "We do role plays and get them dressed up to prepare for an interview, so we take little steps at a time. Some people are a little more advanced than others, so we don't need to do that with everyone. Some people have already found a job. "We don't focus on what they can't do, we focus on what they can do and a lot of people don't realise that they can do a lot, because they do a lot at home, just everyday sort of stuff that they can actually use to gain employment," she said.

The big electric vehicle LIE: Electric cars are not "zero emissions," and their ecological impact is actually dirtier than diesel trucks
05/07/2019 / By Lance D Johnson
The IFO Institute in Germany just released a new report on the ecological impact of electric cars. Electric cars are often advertised as "green" technology, great for the environment and the best solution to preserve the Earth's ozone layer. The member countries of the European Union (EU) promote electric cars as the savior of the environment, but it turns out there are cleaner technologies. Not to mention, diversity in any country's energy production is necessary in order to sustain the benefits of clean energy long term.
When calculating for fleet emissions and determining environmentally-friendly solutions, legislators from the EU suggest that electric vehicles produce 'zero' CO2 emissions. The EU deceptively promotes the technology as "green" in order to subsidize it and pass on gains to greedy investors.
In the latest IFO report, German scientists spoke out about the big electric vehicle lie. This so-called green technology does not produce "zero emissions." When considering how electric cars are manufactured, their carbon footprint is actually worse than many diesel-powered vehicles. The study was spearheaded by Christoph Buchal, professor of physics at the University of Cologne, Hans-Werner Sinn, former IFO president and professor emeritus at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, and energy expert Hans-Dieter Karl.
Electric cars emit 11 – 28 percent more CO2 than diesel engines
The three scientists analyzed the amount of energy that is required to produce batteries for electric cars while considering the current energy requirements that are needed to re-charge the batteries. Tremendous amounts of energy are needed to extract the lithium, cobalt and manganese needed to produce the batteries for electric cars. This process requires 11 to 15 tonnes of CO2 just to make one Tesla model 3 battery. When all is accounted for, electric cars emit up to 180 grams of CO2 per kilometer! According to the scientists, this CO2 output is "considerably more than a comparable diesel Mercedes." According to the researchers, an electric car "burdens the climate 11 – 28% more than a diesel car."
GLYPHOSATE testing is now being applied to all Health Ranger Store branded products. Our in-house lab uses LC-MS-MS (triple quad mass spec). See the full lab science tour video and announcement here.

The team of scientists make a clear case that Germany needs to transition to vehicles powered by hydrogen or combustion engines powered by "green" methane. Professor Buchal explained, "Over the long term, hydrogen-methane technology offers a further advantage: It allows surplus wind and solar power generated during peaks to be stored, and these surpluses will see a sharp increase as the share of this renewable energy grows."
The country also needs to continue using natural gas combustion engines as they make the transition. Subsidizing electric powered vehicles only adds to CO2 emissions, in both the manufacturing phase and in the energy requirements needed to power the vehicles long term. In order to keep electric vehicles charged, every EU country puts out significant CO2 from their energy production grid. For example, in order to keep electric vehicles charged, energy is taken from the grid mix, requiring more coal, more gas, and consequentially more CO2 emissions. Just because electric vehicles do not emit CO2 on the streets, does not mean their net CO2 emissions is lower overall.
Professor Sinn says, "The German federal government should treat all technologies equally and promote hydrogen and methane solutions as well."

SINGAPORE - Electronics components distributor Serial System said its executive chairman and group chief executive Derek Goh Bak Heng, who had been called upon by the Taiwanese authorities to assist in certain investigations under the Securities and Exchange Act of Taiwan on June 28, is under investigation.
In a filing with the Singapore Exchange during lunch break on Thursday (July 5), Serial System said: "Taiwan legal counsel has just advised the board that Dr Derek Goh appears to be a person under investigation.
"The investigations concern Bull Will Co Ltd, a company incorporated in Taiwan, in which the company owns a 19.02 per cent equity stake with a book value of US$0.8 million as at March 31, 2018."
Bull Will manufactures and sells electronic components in Taiwan.
"The board of directors wishes to emphasise that the business and operations of the company and Dr Derek Goh's roles and responsibilities as executive chairman and group CEO therein are not affected in any way by the matter and will continue as usual," the company added.
Serial System said it will make further announcements as and when there are any material developments on the matter.
Its shares last traded on Wednesday at 14.9 cents.

Groups urge officials to allow journalists to do their work at Standing Rock
INDIANAPOLIS – The Society of Professional Journalists and other journalism groups sent a letter today as the planned enforcement of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' evacuation order to those at the Dakota Access Pipeline camp is underway.
In their letter, SPJ, Committee to Protect Journalists, Native American Journalists Association, National Press Photographers Association and Online News Association urge officials in Cannon Ball, North Dakota, to allow journalists to cover the events at Standing Rock safely.
"The journalists at Standing Rock are doing the important work of letting the public know what is happening there, and they need to be able to do that work without fear of arrest, violence or confiscation of their equipment," said SPJ National President Lynn Walsh.
The groups contacted the Morton County Sheriff's Department last week to offer training to law enforcement and journalists there on ways they can peacefully work together. As of this afternoon, the sheriff's department had not responded.
The organizations additionally urge officials to drop charges against journalists who have been arrested while covering Standing Rock.

Think in terms of layers of light: task lighting to illuminate the work space and ambient, indirect light to add overall brightness that will also make the space look larger. Don't rely on just one light source, but rather, illuminate all corners in a small kitchen. If you can't see the space because it's dark, it's as if the square footage isn't there. Keep fixtures sleek and simple so they don't make the kitchen feel cluttered or crowded.
Track fixtures work well for kitchens because they can be angled to illuminate every nook and cranny and are dimmable. What's more, they are inexpensive and readily available at most home improvement stores. Also a must, under cabinet lighting adds depth and dimension to a kitchen, as well as practical illumination for counter tops and cooking areas. You'll feel as if you have more work space, because you can see it better, and the kitchen will seem much warmer and more comfortable. If your cabinets don't extend all the way up the the ceiling, consider illuminating that upper area to add another subtle layer of light.
With a kitchen that's really small and dark, you may want to knock down the top half of a wall to let in some natural light. Use the lower half to create a bar/counter area with an overhang and some stools underneath. On the kitchen side of the lower wall, install some cabinets or shallow open shelving for added storage.
Another suggestion: utilize the reflectability of lighter colors. If your current kitchen seems to be dark and small, consider going to a lighter color of cabinetry. White cabinetry opens the room up greatly and has a very clean feel.
