The Lawyer's Ultimate Guide to Online Leads: Getting More Clients from the Web into Your Law Practice, Step-By-Step by Ken Matejka English | February 17, 2015 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B00TRU62F6 | 299 pages | PDF | 1.41 Mb Almost all legal consumers start the attorney-selection process in a Google search box. With 7 billion daily searches and monopoly status secured, Google is the only show in town if you're a lawyer wanting clients from the Internet. Google visibility is mission critical at the exact moment the legal consumer is ready to hire - what Google calls the consumer's "intent-rich micro-moment." This book describes at length what Google visibility means and how it is achieved in the consumer's hiring micro-moment. Through an examination of the various Google visibility opportunities - Local Service Ads, Google Ads, Maps and organic - we look at the what, why and how of your law firm's Google presence. But that's only part of the picture. Getting lots of traffic from Google only helps if you have the infrastructure and systems in place to convert those visitors into leads. This book explains what I call the law firm's Online Leads Ecosystem, consisting of your website at its core, as well as supporting elements like your firm's blog, online reviews and YouTube, and points of engagement like social media, that will help your law firm make the most of the traffic it can garner through its in-house marketing efforts. We also offer practical tips about what you can do to better meet the expectations of the modern consumer. Who this book is for: (1) Lawyers with a limited marketing budget who would like to keep as much marketing in-house as possible. (2) Lawyers who have a marketing agency and want to have a better understanding about what their agency is doing. (3) Lawyers unfamiliar with the digital legal marketing landscape seeking to know the who, what, where and why. This book will give you, the solo practitioner or small law firm, an overview of the current state of the World Wide Web and practical information about what you can do to make your law practice more successful. Cognizant of possible limitations of your resources, the step-by-step guide focuses on the essentials for creating the best possible lead generating ecosystem for the least amount of time, energy and investment. The material in this book is supported by decades of data that I gathered through my marketing efforts as Operations Manager of the Bar Association of San Francisco Lawyer Referral and Information Service, as well as over 16 years of experience in digital marketing for lawyers and bar associations.

Franklin A. Díaz Lárez, M McLean, "The Last Prefect" English | 2021 | ASIN: B08ZRZRHLZ | EPUB | pages: 55 | 0.1 mb On 31 December 2001, Venezuela's prefectures were finally abolished. The prefectures were institutions regulated by a law that was unconstitutional, unjust and immoral: the vagrancy law. This was a legal framework which authorised prefects to arrest and detain people for up to seventy-two hours, or have them interned indefinitely and without sentencing in abhorrent prison camps. This law had been inherited from Venezuela's last dictatorship, that of General Marcos Pérez Jiménez, which had copied it, almost to the letter, from another enforced in Spain under the dictatorship of Franco. Under its terms, anyone with no known occupation could be considered a vagrant, and so be subject to sanction by the prefects. Homosexuals were also placed in this category. Inexplicably, even though the judicial and ethical underpinnings of the law bordered on the absurd, it remained in full force, and the civil servants working within its remit had no authority to refuse to enforce it. As long as it remained in operation, prefects were required to respect it, comply with it, and ensure the public's compliance. As luck - or misfortune - would have it, I was one of the last of those prefects. These are my memories of some of the most surprising cases I had to contend with.

Michael Davies, "The Last King of Wales: Gruffudd ap Llywelyn c. 1013-1063" English | ISBN: 0752464604 | 2012 | 160 pages | AZW3, EPUB | 2 MB + 7 MB Gruffudd ap Llywelyn was Wales' greatest king. Ambitious and battle-sure, he succeeded in doing what no Welsh king before him was capable of: he ruled all Wales as a united and independent state. He went further by turning the Viking threat to his realm into a powerful weapon and conquering border land that had been in English hands for centuries. Having emerged as a war leader, Gruffudd also proved to be much more: a patron of the arts and church, with the trappings of a king who was respected and feared on the European stage. His eventual murder at the hands of his own men narrowed the country's political ambitions and left Wales in chaos on the eve of the arrival of the Normans. Those who betrayed Gruffudd were the forebears of the famous princes who would dominate Wales until the Edwardian Conquest, meaning that the former king left no one to tell of his glory. As a result, 1,000 years after his birth, the would-be nation builder is all but forgotten. Here, Sean and Michael Davies reveal the king in all his glory, telling for the first time the story of one of Wales' greatest figures and exploring the full implications of Gruffudd's rule. For, without Gruffudd, the fate of King Harold and the outcome of the Battle of Hastings would have been very different ...

Douglas Boyd, "The Kremlin Conspiracy: 1,000 Years of Russian Expansionism" English | ISBN: 0750961392 | 2015 | 384 pages | EPUB | 2 MB A timely book detailing more than 1,000 years of Russian expansionism, utilizing previous unpublished first person accounts People call Putin's power strategy the new Cold War. Author Douglas Boyd argues that it is the same one as before, fought with potent new weapons: the energy resources on which half of Europe now depends. The Cold War did not begin in 1945, but rather when Lenin created the Communist International in 1919, in a tradition of Russian expansionism that goes way further back. Recounted often in the words of parti[beeep]nts, this is the chilling story of 1,000 years of bloodshed that made the Russians the way they are. Revealing the scandalous truth of Putin's origins, this history argues that Kremlin policy has not changed since Rurik the Novgorod and Ivan the Terrible.

The Great Power Competition Volume 6: The Rise of China English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031707664 | 371 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 25 MB China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) represents a monumental shift in the global power landscape. Through ambitious infrastructure projects and strategic economic investments, China has emerged as a formidable challenger to U.S. dominance in the modern Great Power Competition (GPC), leveraging a unique blend of soft power and non-interference policy. This distinctive strategy has allowed China to rapidly gain footholds in resource rich regions such as Central Asia-South Asia (CASA) and the Middle East, compelling the U.S. to rethink its foreign policy approach in response. Given China's adept leveraging of soft power in these geostrategic regions, the critical question arises: how can the U.S. meet the nuanced challenges of the modern GPC?

Christopher E. Taylor, "The Global Legend of Prester John " English | ISBN: 100950200X | 2025 | 75 pages | PDF | 5 MB The Global Legend of Prester John delves into the enduring fascination with Prester John, an unreachable, collectively-imagined Christian priest-king who figured prominently in Europe's entrance into an interconnected global world. This Element draws on "The International Prester John Project," an archive of Prester John narratives, from papal epistles to missionary diaries to Marvel comics, all of which respond to the Christian heterotopia promised in the twelfth-century Letter of Prester John. During the medieval and early modern periods, the desire to legitimize the letter's contents influenced military tactics and papal policy while serving as a cultural touchstone for medieval maps, travel narratives, and romance tales. By providing an overview of distinct narrative paths the legend took along with an analysis of the themes of malleability and elasticity within and across these paths, this Element addresses how belief in Prester John persisted for six centuries despite a lack of evidence.

The Gardens of Our Childhoods (Autumn House Rising Writer Prize) By John Belk 2022 | 74 Pages | ISBN: 163768035X | EPUB | 1 MB Poems considering self, masculinity, and culture through the spectacle of professional wrestling. In this stunning debut, John Belk looks at the world of professional wrestling to excavate the real within the artificial and explore the projections we create, run from, and delight in. In The Gardens of Our Childhoods, the distance between spectacle and reality blurs. Belk uses the spectacle of wrestling to stare deeply into American culture and masculinity, parsing the intersecting threads of patriarchy and gender, and unpacking identity formation and performance. As Belk pries into toxic masculinities, he leaves space also for tenderness, queerness, and resistance to normative structures, opening the potential for love and admiration. Populated by classic and contemporary wrestlers like André the Giant, Hulk Hogan, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Ricky Steamboat, Bruno Sammartino, Marcus "Buff" Bagwell, and more, this book is ultimately about the constant deconstruction and reconstruction of our identities that smudge fiction and reality. Like wrestlers in their operatic and winding storylines, we learn how to project and inhabit identities while growing into and fighting against the scripts we write for ourselves and those that are imposed on us. The Gardens of Our Childhoods is the winner of Autumn House Press's Rising Writer Prize in Poetry.

The Flexitarian Cookbook: Adaptable recipes for part-time vegetarians and vegans by Ryland Peters & Small English | January 14th, 2025 | ISBN: 1788796713 | 144 pages | True EPUB | 15.02 MB Do you want to adopt a more FLEXIBLE approach to your diet? Looking for less of a rigid regime, and more of an ORGANIC way to eat a mainly VEGETARIAN diet? Delve into this collection of DELICIOUS, MODERN, VEGETARIAN recipes, with simple options for switching in meat or fish as the mood takes you. Many of us are looking to eat less meat and/or fish, as the host of environmental, ethical, and health-related reasons for doing so stacks up. The concept of not centring every meal around an animal-based protein is well on its way to settling into mainstream society. But out there, there is a whole middle-ground of home-cooks, placed somewhere between carnivore and vegan, who are doing their best to reduce meat consumption, but enjoying it on occasion when the urge strikes; the flexitarians. Recipes include a warm curried lentil salad with crispy paneer and spiced dressing, but the paneer can be swapped for crispy prawns/shrimp if you are looking to add some more protein. A winter vegetable stew with herbed dumplings is substantial enough on its own, but this cookbook gives the option to add slow-cooked beef cheeks, if you like. A best-ever recipe for vegetable and lentil moussaka offers the option to swap the lentils for regular mince/ground meat, while the Moroccan spiced vegetable tagine gives an option for cooking with chicken, if the mood so takes you.

The Eurasian Century: Hot Wars, Cold Wars, and the Making of the Modern World by Hal Brands English | January 14th, 2025 | ISBN: 132403694X | 320 pages | True EPUB | 1.07 MB One of Foreign Policy's Most Anti[beeep]ted Books of 2025 An urgent and incisive new framework for understanding the origins-and stakes-of global conflict with China, Russia, and Iran. We often think of the modern era as the age of American power. In reality, we're living in a long, violent Eurasian century. That giant, resource-rich landmass possesses the bulk of the global population, industrial might, and potential military power; it touches all four of the great oceans. Eurasia is a strategic prize without equal-which is why the world has been roiled, reshaped, and nearly destroyed by clashes over the supercontinent. Since the early twentieth century, autocratic powers-from Germany under Kaiser Wilhelm II to the Soviet Union-have aspired for dominance by seizing commanding positions in the world's strategic heartland. Offshore sea powers, namely the United Kingdom and America, have sought to make the world safe for democracy by keeping Eurasia in balance. America's rivalries with China, Russia, and Iran are the next round in this geopolitical game. If this new authoritarian axis succeeds in enacting a radically revised international order, America and other democracies will be vulnerable and insecure. Hal Brands, a renowned expert on global affairs, argues that a better understanding of Eurasia's strategic geography can illuminate the contours of rivalry and conflict in today's world. The Eurasian Century explains how revolutions in technology and warfare, and the rise of toxic ideologies of conquest, made Eurasia the center of twentieth-century geopolitics-with pressing implications for the struggles that will define the twenty-first.

The Ethics Bowl Way: Answering Questions, Questioning Answers, and Creating Ethical Communities By Roberta Israeloff (editor), Karen Mizell (editor) 2022 | 160 Pages | ISBN: 1475861613 | PDF | 1 MB The Ethics Bowl Way introduces the Ethics Bowl to the larger educational community, including those involved in elementary, secondary, and higher education. Ethics Bowl espouses a new way to engage in discussions about complex ethical issues. Although it resembles debate, in that two teams prepare for and present arguments on an ethical dilemma, parti[beeep]nts are rewarded not for taking adversarial positions but rather for the degree to which they work together to bolster each other's arguments by asking more incisive questions, asking for greater clarity, and providing more thoughtful, reflective, logical answers. Changing positions is rewarded rather than penalized; civil discourse is a key value; critical thinking, public speaking, and listening skills are also nurtured. Ethics Bowl's foremost practitioners explain why this model is often more productive than debate; and how it fosters the very qualities that produce more responsible, informed citizens in a democracy, as well as model co-workers, family and community members, and friends. The book also offers practical, hands-on advice for those who parti[beeep]te in Ethics Bowl (coaches, judges, case writers, organizers) and looks ahead to the ways in which it can be expanded and improved. Ethics Bowl, which began as a classroom activity, is always evolving to become more inclusive, fair, and challenging.

The multiple layers of policy coordination which emerged in response to the crisis have initiated a process by which the EU is increasingly divided in terms of the level of vertical integration between the Eurozone core group and differentiated peripheries amongst the outsiders. At the same time the sovereign debt crisis has created a periphery of predominantly Southern European countries within the Eurozone that became dependent on external financial support from the other member states. The contributions in this book critically examine various aspects of the emerging internal post-crisis constellation of the EU. The main focus lies on national and supranational governance issues, national dynamics and dynamics in the Eurozone core as well as in the periphery. This book was originally published as a special issue of Perspectives on European Politics and Society.

Christian Joerges, "The Economy as a Polity: The Political Constitution of Contemporary Capitalism" English | 2017 | ISBN: 1844720691 | EPUB | pages: 244 | 0.6 mb The debate about so-called economic globalization has reached a new phase. The hegemony of neo-liberal thinking has ended, in the face of both the increased and increasingly effective resistance to the social consequences of neo-liberal market-making - rising inequality and insecurity throughout the world - and the visibly dysfunctional effects of lack of regulation - currency and stock market crashes, among others. Thus, the story about 'the rise and fall of market society', which was first told in these terms by Karl Polanyi sixty years ago, is about to receive a new chapter. In this light, this volume offers a novel perspective on the interaction between states and markets. In contrast to much of current theoretical wisdom, we hold, with Polanyi, that markets cannot even be consistently thought of as self-regulating. Markets are always constituted by framework conditions that cannot be set by the markets themselves. The range and scope of market rules requires some agreement, or at least acceptance, for economic exchange to be working at all; in democratic societies, these rules are at least theoretically always subject to political debate and decision. To put the issue in theoretical terms: even the most pure version of economic liberalism always entails at the same time a political philosophy. This volume, thus, proposes to understand contemporary capitalism by regarding the economy as a polity, as an arrangement that is always constituted by some collective agreements about its mode of operation. Such theoretical position on its own, though, is insufficient to explain the workings of capitalism once and for all. Historical experiences with capitalism have led to transformations that require new angles of analysis. It is in the nature of the struggles over the embedding of markets that their outcomes are subject to historical contingency and cannot be completely known beforehand. Beyond a review of the theoretical tools at hand, therefore, the analysis of the contemporary constellation of capitalism, also requires an understanding of its recent transformations. This is the second task to which this volume is devoted - through analyses of the current state of regulation of labour and money and through investigations of the historical development and novel forms of the mode of embedding markets. While focusing on the renewal of the analysis of contemporary capitalism, the volume also points to fruitful directions of institutional or policy change and provides perspectives for a much-needed political renewal, with a particular focus on the European Union as a novel polity embedding the European economy.

Ning Lu, "The Dynamics of Foreign-Policy Decisionmaking in China" English | 2000 | ISBN: 0813337461 | EPUB | pages: 228 | 0.6 mb Lu Ning, former assistant to a vice-foreign minister of China, draws on archival materials, interviews, and personal experiences, to provide unique insights into the formal and informal structures, processes, mechanisms, and dynamics of-and key players in-foreign-policy decisionmaking in Beijing. Lu Ning sheds light on controversial decisions that were made, such as China's entering the Korean War, selling DF-3 missiles to Saudi Arabia in 1986, and cooperating with the Israeli defense establishment.Lu Ning divulges the inner workings of Beijing's foreign ministry, introduces new Chinese language sources, and presents a series of case studies that challenge existing Western theoretical analysis of Chinese policymaking. Based on his examination of the past forty years, Lu Ning makes predictions about likely changes in Beijing's leadership and in its foreign-policy decisionmaking process. This accessibly written, incisive book will be invaluable to anyone interested in Sinology, Chinese foreign policy, comparative foreign policy, and contemporary international relations of East Asia.This second edition contains a fully revised Introduction, and it has been updated through President Clinton's recent visit to China. The new edition also contains new material on the Clinton Administration's varying policy positions toward China.

Francesca Batzella, "The Dynamics of EU External Energy Relations: Fighting for Energy" English | 2017 | ISBN: 0367886812 | EPUB | pages: 162 | 0.6 mb The Dynamics of EU External Energy Relations examines the behaviour of the European Commission in EU external energy relations paying particular attention to the dynamics existing between the Commission and the member states. It examines the Commission as a constrained policy-entrepreneur trying to expand its power, budget and competences, yet frustrated by member states protective of their national sovereignty. Analysing the Commission as agent and the member states as its prin[beeep]ls, the book proposes a more nuanced examination of behaviour where the agent tries to satisfy its own interests but is still responsive to the preferences of the prin[beeep]ls. Using a wide range of original primary and secondary data, the book argues that EU external energy relations reflect the dynamics of the relations between the Commission and the member states. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of European Union studies and politics, EU energy and foreign policy, and more broadly to European politics and international relations.

The Dusk of Design: Exploring Multidisciplinary Approaches and Evolutionary Biology in Architecture English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031768663 | 318 Pages | PDF (True) | 17 MB The Dusk of Design explores the intersection of evolutionary theories and architectural design. Drawing inspiration from the concept of exaptation in biology, the book argues that natural selection, as the most successful designer on our planet, thrives on the diversity, variability, and redundancy of creative structures. By transferring these mechanisms to architectural design, the book contends that we can cultivate more resilient and sustainable architecture and cities in the face of environmental crises.
