NEW YORK, NY - March 6, 2016 Multi-instrumentalist and Drama Desk Award nominated composer Sean Cronin with his band Very Good will showcase pieces from his nonsensical rock-opera at a Sunday Night Ace Hotel residency in March. The new large-scale work is loosely themed around the three books of Dante's Divine Comedy: Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. The 8-piece ensemble will use the space in unconventional ways, mobilizing the band around the vast lobby, and will use uniformity and contrast within the costumes of the members.

Far from a typical rock band, Sean Cronin's Very Good is an eclectic and dynamic juggernaut. In addition to its avant-pop sensibilities, the band draws on influences from theatre and absurdist literature. Instrumentation includes clarinet, fiddle, resonator guitar, snare drum, bass drum, cello, electric bass, electric guitar, voices and more. The result is an experience that must be seen to be understood, although Cronin doesn't necessarily want you to understand it.

Very Good’s music is essentially a type of chamber music, with dynamics that range from completely acoustic to full-on rock. Listeners may hear similarities to experimental rock bands like Animal Collective and Deerhoof, or predecessors like The Beatles and Neil Young but the band’s genre is as wide as Cronin’s taste: "I listen to a lot of classical music and early jazz, as well as great contemporary song writers like Jeff Tweedy and Bjork. On top of this, I'm really interested in theatre and performance art and their relationship with a musical performance. But deep down, I feel like what we do is essentially rooted in the folk music tradition: just kind of doing what we can with the limitations that our instruments, personalities, and the space around us provide. It's just folk music from a country that doesn't exist.”

In Cronin’s initial writings for this work, he found each piece could be characterized in one of three ways: chaotic, absurd, or dream-like. “It occurred to me that these three styles could be represented by the conventional states of hell (chaos), purgatory (suspension), and heaven (beauty)…After I described the thought of taking a character through hell to get to heaven, a friend slapped down Dante's epic work and told me I had to read it. And it's been feeding the project quite nicely.”

[more…]

“It will basically be an insane trip through various mental states, which is kind of what the band does already, but within a larger, more theatrical framework.” 

The fourth concert, March 27, will be dedicated to some of the greatest influences on Very Good, which include Duke Ellington, Bob Dylan, Dimitri Shostakovich, and Charles Mingus.

Love and Compassion is My Religion: Life-Changing New “Beginners Book into ...

Deerfield, Illinois – When most young people plan what they’ll do when “all grown up”, most imagine status, power and enough money to afford them true freedom. Illinois’ Jane Zarse lived that dream but, like millions of Americans, rapidly destroyed it all through the lure and fierce grip of alcoholism.

Thankfully, Zarse is still here today to tell her story, thanks to a unique spiritual awakening that saw her accept God and His word into her life for the first time. In ‘Love and Compassion is My Religion (A Beginner's Book into Spirituality)’, Zarse tells her raw and uninhibited story in a way that will ultimately change lives.

Synopsis:

Jane Zarse was rich and privileged. From prep school to Boston University to a prime spot at the Chicago's Options Exchange trading, she'd found the recipe for success.

But wrapped up in the excess of alcoholism, she felt nothing.

Zarse shares the most personal details of her descent into alcoholism and her eventual crawl back in 'Love and Compassion is My Religion', an inspirational memoir dedicated to showing others how the power of God's love can change you. Struggling through in an alcohol-induced daze, she lost it all - including her marriage, her mother, and even more, before she finally decided to seek help.

“I can tell you now – when I was young, I didn’t just think I had it all, I knew I did,” explains Zarse. “I carried that same success into my early adult years after graduating from University. I suppose I became complacent and fell into a culture of excess, because to say I crashed down and hit rock-bottom is an understatement.”

Continuing, “The worse thing is that, when you’re caught in addiction’s vicious circle, you just can’t see a way out. But when I found God, I quickly came to realize that there was an exit door, if I was willing to embrace His love and compassion. I wasn’t a heavily spiritual person before, but now credit it with the only thing that saved me.”

Zarse believes that her memoir will change the lives of millions of readers around the world.

“There is nobody that this book can’t influence. From those caught in their own addiction cycles to those exploring their spirituality for the first time, and even people with no spiritual leanings who just want to briefly experience life from another person’s point of view. God’s love knows no boundaries and, after reading my book, every reader will understand this boldly.”

Love and Compassion is My Religion (A Beginner's Book into Spirituality)’ is due for imminent release.

About the Author:

Zarse grew up in the prestigious community of Lake Forest, Illinois. She attended Boston University before acting in New York City and trading in Chicago. After hitting bottom, she learned to love herself.

Blue Point Lists 5 Most Overlooked Barriers Preventing You from Hiring All-stars

$
0
0

Hiring the right candidate is difficult. At times it may seem as though the stars need to align to find the perfect candidate. Add in curveballs, business climate, and general “life” happening, and hiring can go from something exciting to potentially your biggest headache.

Anticipating possible challenges to the hiring process can help eliminate surprises down the road. While all of these may not be in your control, being aware of their potential may help you navigate through challenging waters.

Here are the 5 most overlooked threats holding your company back from great hiring:

    1.    Overly cumbersome interview process
Too many cooks in the kitchen or a drawn-out interview process. There are numerous reasons this may not be streamlined, but it is the number 1 cause of a negative experience. Take a fresh look at yours and adjust as necessary.

    2.    Job market conditions
As unemployment rates decline and demand for talent increases you will, no doubt, be faced with increased competition among other companies hiring similar talent. While they may not be direct business competitors, vying for the same talent should put them on your radar.

    3.    Negative company reviews/press
In general, what do people think of your company? A quick Google search should reveal your answer. Though you may be unable to change negative publicity directly, you can gauge your team member’s satisfaction through employer surveys, and make changes as necessary.

    4.    Interview hijackers
FACT: Some people don’t know how to interview. While their intent isn’t necessarily to derail the hiring process, putting them in front of potential candidates can be a disaster. Identify them early, and consider precluding them from the interview process.

    5.    Your online application
In a fast paced world, what separates someone from applying on your website and not, could be as simple as an application online. Your user experience applying online is just as important as the advertisements you pay for. Review what it’s like for your users to apply online and make it as simple as possible. You don’t want to discourage someone from applying because of an overly complex online application.

We’re down to details and specifics. These are what make the difference between the volume of candidates applying and the overall quality of candidates to choose from. Having an airtight interview process and feedback loop is crucial to securing the talent you need. Separate yourself from competitors, be nimble, and adjust as necessary.

Members of the American Association of Premier DUI Attorneys also have access to the resources and tools that are used to win and successfully resolve DUI cases and these are resources and tools that only a very small percentage of DUI attorneys have access to and use.

Charles M. Rowland II maintains an established DUI/OVI practice, representing the accused drunk driver in State and Federal Courts in the Miami Valley and throughout Ohio. An attorney since 1995, Charles Rowland dedicates his practice exclusively to representing the accused drunk driver and has worked to amass more credentials than any attorney in his field.

Payne-Mason’s Exclusive WC53 Cigar Allows Aficionados To Experience A Literal Piece Of World ...

Premier Manufacturer Re-Creates Classic Cuban Cigars Based On Style And Blends Favored By Sir Winston Churchill, Some With Actual Elements from One He Smoked In 1953

            San Diego, CA – February 11, 2016 - In December 1953, Sir Winston Churchill, during his second stint as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, met with U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower and French Premier Joseph Laniel in Bermuda to discuss the future of their countries’ relationships with post WWII Russia, atomic energy and Egypt. It was arguably the most powerful gathering of world leaders since the Pottsdam Conference in 1945, when the U.S., UK and USSR heads of state met to decide how to punish Nazi war criminals.

            Historians tell us that Churchill’s goals of negotiation and détente with the Soviets were not achieved then – but a still-smoking cigar he left behind at the summit is making some exciting history of its own thanks to premiere cigar manufacturer PAYNE-MASON.

            A high end cigar manufacturer whose 100% hand rolled products are exclusively available at prestigious destination resort properties (casinos, wineries, golf courses, vacation resorts), PAYNE-MASON has taken the partially smoked cigar – purchased from an auction held at Sotheby’s Auction House – and used it to create an iconic new product: the WC53, named for Churchill and the year of its origin (the year of the conference in 1953.)

Presented with a section of this original historic cigar, the Cuban Master Rollers of PAYNE-MASON carefully researched and recreated the original construction and flavor characteristics of the original blends of one of Sir Winston’s favorite cigars from the long since defunct Cuban boutique cigar company La Aroma De Cuba. These original characteristics of the original are combined with equally unique tobaccos not found in today’s commercial cigar market.

            To the delight of cigar aficionados and collectors of historical artifacts alike, a limited number of these resurrected classics will include an actual portion of tobacco from the original cigar, exclusively provided to PAYNE-MASON to create the limited, numbered WC53 DNA line.

            To complete the package, a new stunningly beautiful cigar band was commissioned just for this project that evokes the tropical atmosphere, the importance of this summit between three of the world’s most powerful leaders and Churchill’s love of cigars.

            Bob Payne, owner of PAYNE-MASON, says, “Adding a small amount of tobacco leaf from a cigar actually enjoyed by Churchill himself means this is more than a fine, premium product…it makes it an actual piece of history. It’s an extremely iconic, unique offering that perfectly reflects our capacity as a manufacturer and beautifully augments who we are and what we do.”

            Payne Mason’s multi-faceted WC53 product line begins with the WC53 “DNA” Cigar in a Tomb Box. This limited edition and numbered WC53 Commemorative Gift Set includes one WC53 “DNA” Cigar, featuring Sir Winston’s original cigar tobacco, presented in a handcrafted hardwood glass top display box, with a plaque explaining the provenance. It retails for $599.

            The second item is the WC53 Smoker, which features a unique blend with the authentic flavor characteristics of Cuban cigars of the 1950s. 100% hand rolled by Payne Mason’s own Cuban Master Rollers, this cigar provides an opportunity to experience the national heritage of Cuba. A single retails for $24; 5-packs are $99.

            The WC53 10 Count, retailing for $399, contains 10 of the WC53 Smoker cigars, crafted from the same blends and premium tobaccos as the WC53 DNA, but without the original donor tobacco. They come in a finished hardwood case with the “Bermuda 1953” logo inscribed.

            The WC53 Combo is a deluxe two item set containing both the solid mahogany, glass topped tomb box containing one iconic WC53 DNA cigar and a hardwood gift set containing 10 of the WC53 Smoker cigars. This retails for $997.

            “In addition to allowing people to experience world history in a unique way, we’re also excited that we’ve drawn inspiration from this unexpected gift to create new products similar to those classic Cuban cigars of the 50s, which are so much different than anything being manufactured today.”

            The WC53 line of cigars and beautifully handmade gift and presentation sets will be available exclusively through PAYNE-MASON’s website at www.paynemason.com/WC53.  The product release is scheduled for February 12, 2016.  Current and updated information will be posted to this page.

            For more information, please contact Bob Payne at 760-744 9007 or email at bob@paynemason.com.

Efficiency Expert Justin Crawford Takes Care Of The Boring Stuff – Helping Clients Focus On ...

$

Serving as an outsourced COO for small business owners, the veteran entrepreneur and operations consultant’s Agents of Efficiency eliminates time-draining waste and implements targeted solutions          

Downingtown, PA – February 15, 2016 - Drawing on his multi-faceted experience as an attorney, entrepreneur, operations consultant and builder of extraordinary businesses, Justin Crawford brings to his dynamic new venture, Agents of Efficiency, a lifetime of commitment, passion, high achievement and extraordinary adventure.

Considering the fascinating twists, turns and travels that fueled his personal journey, it seems ironic that the crafty branding line for his company is “We Do Boring.” But dig into the meaning behind the phrase and it makes perfect sense.  Crawford’s team of high level outsourced COOs take care of the below the line, day to day details of their clients’ businesses so they can focus on the passion and vision that drove them to launch it in the first place.

Launched in the fall of 2015, Agents of Efficiency (AoE) identifies the time-sucking, profit draining tasks that distract from their clients’ passion and core competency, then implements targeted solutions with their best-in-class service providers. As per the moniker of Crawford’s organization, everything is designed to maximize efficiency, the bottom line, and that often elusive happiness that far too often gets lost in the sea of those back-end responsibilities which – while necessary – have nothing to do with why the entrepreneur started their business in the first place. Or as he likes to say, “We do the boring stuff. You do the happy dance.”

While Crawford is no stranger to Silicon Valley, and has worked in high level capacities for several of the world’s largest shipping corporations, his new company is geared toward the small business owner (law firms, pizza shops, etc.), ideally with 25 or fewer employees, helping streamline their time and workloads and maximize profits. He is starting regionally, with clients in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, but plans to expand his operations nationwide by the end of 2016.

“Time after time, I kept running into entrepreneurs and small business owners who were struggling just to survive – let alone thrive – in their businesses because of simple and avoidable mistakes about how they ran the business itself,” he says. “They had a clear vision and passion for the CPG product they wanted to bring to market, or web-based service, or they were great at the practice of law  – but they got lost in the weeds when it came bookkeeping, technology, operations management – or even marketing.”

Agents of Efficiency provides strategy plus execution to struggling small business owners looking to unlock profits and growth for their businesses by re-thinking how they run “the business end” of their companies. 

On the strategy side, Crawford unpacks the company’s Efficiency Roadmap™ process in his highly anticipated and upcoming book Live Free or DIY – The time-starved small business owner’s survival guide. The process utilizes the Business Model Canvas, hypothesis testing and validated learning to guide owners into new insights about how to create more value for their customers and capture more of that value for themselves. It also leverages what Crawford calls “The Golden Formula” to provide a systemized way to center their clients thinking on an obsession with their effective hourly rate, then track and increase that rate continually over time, utilizing tactics like breaking up the value chain and “Focus + LEGO-based day construction” – Crawford’s personal system for effective time management.

On the execution side, AoE maintains a carefully curated database of expert service providers that specialize in everything from HR, to bookkeeping, to marketing. Crawford’s COOs bring in experts that are the perfect fit for their clients’ specific needs. They then manage those relationships and that process as necessary to make sure all the component parts of the strategic plan are working like a well-oiled machine.

“My chief purpose is to remove roadblocks to personal happiness,” he says. “The motto at the Federal Academy I attended as an undergrad was Acta non Verba ­– ‘Deeds, not Words.’ We become a trusted partner in the trenches, and we force ourselves to prove our ROI every month. If we don’t deliver, fire us. That’s how confident we are in our results. We love working with small businesses because that’s where the greatest needs are, and where the rewards are the largest.”
