All The Feels

Random bulletpoints of Annie/Jeff analysis because I am overcome with shippiness. :D Also more like bullet-lengthy-paragraphs. You tried, self, you tried.

Pascal’s Triangle (PT) is not a love triangle.

Sure, look at the top two rows and you’ve got a binary split, ie, choice between two women. But PT is row based, your current row based on the one above. It’s complex. Look below the binary surface of choice to row 3, where it actually becomes PT, where the complexity begins (and Community is about complexity.) 1, 2, 1, a total of 4. The 2 is the merging of the two 1s from row two - Ie, two women who get lumped together. And beyond them is a 1 that springs out of nowhere - Annie. Surprise!

Kiss at the end of S1

Jeff’s major deal is being afraid of expressing caring/vulnerability, while desperately craving/needing it. Britta and Slater were both saying they loved him, and he does want to take that, but runs scared because they are challenging him to admit his feelings in public, which no one who really knows and cares about him would do. His scene with Annie is private. And she isn’t asking him FOR anything, she’s just asking what’s up, because she cares about the answer. He feels safe, he opens up, it’s intimacy, which is both giving and taking. Notably he admits he’s glad she’s staying after his share, this is him saying he cares about her too.

His explanation of the situation is a perceived choice between being the New Year’s guy (who he wants to be) and the Three Weeks Later guy (who he is.) But the thing about New Year’s is the initial momentum always fades, and you have to put in the work, which Slater doesn’t help him with. And he WON’T be able to sustain it on is own. The guy he IS isn’t who he wants to be, it’s just giving up, rather than striving, even if imperfectly, to reach those goals. Annie falls into the sweet spot: she understands what his default is, but shows him that he CAN be the man he wants to be, shows him what those steps ARE, encourages him to take the steps to be that person, and rewards him when he succeeds. Which he does, with her behind him.

And she kisses him first. Which is an offering similar to Britta and Slater’s public announcements, but through action, not words. Jeff uses words as shield and weapon, as did the other two. Bypassing this essentially shortcircuits his brain. His brain will warp and analyze and question, but she kisses him gently, an invitation not a demand. He’s already put aside his sword and shield during their talk, and doesn’t feel the need to pick them up because he feels safe and cared for and is okay accepting and reciprocating that.

Play

Jeff is all adult and aloof and beyond such petty childish pursuits such as play, which is the scoffed at domain of Annie/Troy/Abed. But he actually really wants it. It likely stems in part from his loss of a proper childhood, but it’s also just who he is. Imagination isn’t just for the young, the loss of the ability to play is an oft-bemoaned feature of adulthood, one the learned remind us we ought recapture. (And a joy of parenthood is getting to do that through your children.) But look, he literally was playacting being a lawyer. It’s how he engages with the world. He just justified that as a means to an end and did it for power and profit, rather than for enjoyment.

We see this, I argue, when responding to Annie’s playacting they were married. Annie anticipates a bad reaction, but he doesn’t give one. No judgment. He then establishes it’s not a deeper issue (”do I have to worry about this” ie, is this real/insanity). When he says “I can tell you one thing your fantasy got wrong...” he’s not challenging her, or even taking offense, and while he’s not entering into her fantasy world (which is over anyway), he’s offering fodder. He’s involving himself in the narrative process for her benefit. And in the couched language of daydream he’s reassuring her -if- it was true, he would be devoted. IF is a super important word in play, because you don’t have to believe, for example, you ARE a pirate. You just need to act as IF you were a pirate.

Also cute, I take as justified fanon the deleted scene where he orders her appletini. He was whining to her about it but it was relaxed because they both know he’d do it anyway. And when the bartender turns out to be a believer in Annie’s created fantasy world, Jeff stops himself from correcting him and destroying the world. Instead, he lets it persist just far enough to let himself glance at Annie as if it was true, and in that moment he sees her through the eyes of fantasy, and sees a beautiful woman, rather than all the complexity of their relationship.

Then there’s basically all the giant Greendale instances of play. Which one way or the other, he gets roped into and ends up jumping into with abandon. (Paintball, lava etc.) And they’re often paired, because he enjoys playing with her, and the “if this” acts as license for them to explore their compatibility. And their capers, when they pair up in the “real world”, is really just a sophisticated form of play. As brought up pointedly when they were searching for the ASB, there’s a dual nature here. They aren’t just buddies, like Troy and Abed, who are also very fantasy oriented (cardboard submarine!). There’s a level of daydream beneath the fantasy world where they can set aside the complexities of their relationship, and say “if we’re solving this crime, then we can live in this bubble and just be together.”

I also really love the whole Professor Professorson episode because of course the layers are just so intricate and delightful when they unfold. He tackles her which was total overreaction, he’s in a heightened world and committed to it. They plot out this crazy intricate play to teach the Dean a lesson together, where they involve real emotions. Many of which are Annie’s, but that means they’re creating a world in which it is safe to amplify her feelings which they are both aware of but are usually repressed, especially by Jeff. And he praises her for that later (she went off book and deceived like a master) rather than being uncomfortable. They exit play safely because they trust each other while playing and can leave that permissive world as an if. And it ends with the blanket fort collapsing and cocooning them. It is a play space literally being broken, begging the question of how much impact our play can have on our real selves.

Season 6

So basically I think I missed fandom the first time around and just binged on meta and there’s (fanon?) that Jeff spent the season looking for her attention, but Annie had pulled back? I zipped through a bunch of scenes they were in together, and heartily agree. Also I think I went a little nutty but What I see:

Annie doesn’t ignore him or anything, but where she might have previously inserted herself in his life, she starts to let him fend for himself while she diverts her attention to other relationships, and treats him more like she does the others. I don’t think she really does anything like taking his class so she can evaluate his teaching and bludgeon him into being better? But when they’re in a situation, like City College’s ad, she stands up to him as normal, challenging him to be better and do the right thing, as she always has. Rewards him with approval when he does, and his whispered “thank you” is the cutest thing ever because it’s an intimate choice in a rather boisterous exchange.

Meanwhile Jeff does seem to spend a lot of time and energy trying to get back to a place where he’s first in her eyes. There are a lot of shots in S6 a the Table and group scenes that involve him looking at her disproportionately, first, last, or only when speaking, esp when they’re all at the table. When I went back and tried to do the same to S5 those scenes are set up a bit differently and I saw less of it but I think there’s just fewer group scenes in general though?. In S6, he often ends a comment directed at the group (non table) by looking at Annie, indicating he wants her response, and thus her attention and engagement. And often, she is the next person to speak. Which is her personality as a leader, which supports the idea that while he’s seeking her out, she isn’t necessarily responding to that but just being her.

Finale

I’ve sort of run myself dry thinking through other things. And great analysis is plentiful and most recent. So not even bullet points just ramble But:

Oh3, so when Garrett proposed and Abed noted Jeff had a funny look, he’s been daydreaming marrying Annie for that lone plus longer? That took me a long time to put together as an actual literal thing.

Oh2, it’s all canon that he has issues with prolonged eye contact because he doesn’t want people to see him broken and he doesn’t break eye contact through any of this. He knows she knows he’s broken already and is quietly fine with her seeing everything and this is a moment for *sobs*

Oh wait hey, so callback to that bit where she’s like “your words don’t mean anything” and he’s like “That’s what conversation is, people saying things to get stuff.” Because he’s 100% not trying to get anything by telling her he’s let her go. And he means a lot by saying it. And if he said “I love you” there’s an implied sense of obligation to say it back and since he means romantically he can’t do that. So this is just him letting her know, no pressure, no expectation, that he loves her and has loved her but it’s okay because she’s free and he wants her to be free because he loves her. And he means it so hard when she says “kiss me goodbye” he’s all “you don’t owe me anything.”

But she does love him too, except she knows she’s in a different place emotionally and professionally. And it’s sweet and a gift because she doesn’t make this about her but about him and his feelings. So she preempts his regrets because she knows he WON’T kiss her goodbye unless she invites him to. There’s something I’m reaching for and can’t find here. She doesn’t admit to anything because there’s no point? It would just hurt him either way? Sharing her feelings through action rather than words?

And so much squee thinking how far everyone’s come for this scene to be a thing which could happen.

Callback to Annie’s marriage fantasy when Jeff has his own. Hers was external, by her personality (esp at the time of her maturation) and thus public and psychologically working out a reasonable feeling of abandonment as she gave their fictional selves marital difficulties. His is very internal, and occurs after Abed, always so reliable as a gateway to fantasy, turns the tables on him. He’s experiencing reasonable feelings of abandonment, and while he runs, it’s to a safe space of “what if,” a coping mechanism he has learned, and which allows for working out of psychological issues.

It’s dual: in that the larger issue is his need for a sense of stability. Though he’s staring at the table the scene doesn’t involve Greendale at all, he already had that fantasy. This is about wanting a life outside of the safe zone of the college. And while he suggests a dog as an option he imagined a kid because having one represents stability for him - it was his father who left, and he won’t leave. If there’s a kid, this is a life, Annie can’t leave. But he offers her imaginary self complete editing powers, because all he really wants is to be able to love and be loved. It’s indulgence, a desperate grasp at balm because while he let her go, he can’t let her -go.- He was okay with being close friends, they do love each other as friends. See his pitch. But faced with losing that, he’s stripped bare. He indulges in his supressed hearts desire and is faced with the reality of what he already knows: it’s not in the cards.

And he’s stripped down to insecurities that aren’t limited to Annie. It’s cute how they jive over Marvel, though it’s weird to me and takes up more time and weird dramatic looking around that doesn’t feel playful enough to be justified. The tone of their voices is too serious, it’s a mismatch. I like how he admits the huge thing that he let her go as far as he has control, and suddenly a time pressure is on their alone time. Everything is immediate right now, everything happening fast. I wonder what Annie would have said if not for the text. But that’s the thing, it’s the wrong time for them and this is a goodbye. It’s too late but just under the wire all at once.

In this chapter at least. In the safety of the group Annie brings up a season 7, which we all know could happen years down the line. Would have been more fitting if she said movie though. Still, he takes that as the comfort in which it was intended.

WTF with his all coed season 7? Yes, we cut to it so it totally isn’t happening, but has he put his issues to rest and is just fantasizing crap or what? It makes no sense to me.

I love that he not only puts her first after she invites him to kiss her goodbye by asking “what about you,” but is -asking for consent.- He doesn’t even move towards her until he gets it, he’s literally just standing back. What’s up with the penis thing? Meta reference to shortcut arguments that it’s not true love but lust? Is it Jeff acknowledging his own cynicism and how he’s dropped it? Since he’s so clearly not in a lust mode here. Is he adding a tiny bit of his usual pointed add ins to his speeches?

I guess it’s like... this is one of his speeches, but it feels out of place because of his delivery? Which is beautifully subdued and resigned and honest and just defeated, but defeated in the sense that he defeated all the barriers he still keeps around himself.

and goodbye hug and kiss at the airport.

selected tweets 2016-17

These are tweets from my first @luisneer twitter account. Recently I made a new twitter account with the same username, after having deleted my account and having been without twitter for several months. These tweets are from August 2016 to March 2017, which was most of my first year of college at Shepherd University, in Shepherdstown, West Virginia. I don't go to Shepherd anymore; I transferred to West Virginia University, in Morgantown, WV, after my second semester. My tweets from late March 2017 to [July or August] 2017, when I deleted my twitter, were not archived.

I'm creating this blog post so the world will have access to some of my tweets from the deleted @luisneer, in case they have any merit as literature. I'm still not sure if I will continue to use twitter in 2018/the future. Usually when I use twitter I feel like I'm actually wanting to be doing something else, but I don't know what; or wanting to be using "another app" that doesn't exist. Twitter generally seems bad for me. Questions about my tweets August 2016-March 2017 can be directed at [email protected]. Thank you

Spot Winners

New Post has been published on https://autotraffixpro.app/allenmendezsr/spot-winners/

Spot Winners

Buy Now

Im going to show you precisely how you can copy my results quickly and painlessly so that your betting accounts and results look just like mine…

If You Are Looking For

A Network that will help you Generate Your First Profits Today

A simple but effective approach any punter with any level of experience can use.

A Solution which requires a low starting bank and no studying of form or stats

Then Do whatever you need to do to make sure you have at least 7 uninterrupted minutes to see everything on this page then hit the button below…

Fellow Punter, I know exactly how you feel!

One complicated software program after another, one high-priced tipster after another, one “sure fire” system after another… you have some success, but of course, the “bad luck” far outweighes the winners. Sound familiar?

I’ll bet that every time you bought one of these “miracle softwares” you were promised in the very persuasive sales letter that it would be the answer to all of your problems.

So I know how you feel – Most of these half baked, products on the market promise you quick results but cant stand the test of time and end up wiping your bank clean in just one or two bets. These products fail to consider the most vital ingredients to successful punting – money management principles, and maintaining the right amount of discipline.

Like you I’ve bought most of them… bought into their lies and then bought their crappy systems… but that will NEVER happen again let me tell you why…

My Name is Andrew. Before I give you the details of exactly how I SPOT WINNERS, I should tell you I am going to divulge some extremely delicate details about what led to this point. Dont worry I’m not going to bore you with my life story, but if you have been a punter for any length of time, you might relate.

Perhaps not my best trait, but it is a passion I’ve had over the years: I LOVE TO GAMBLE! There is almost no better “high” than placing a few pounds on a horse than smiling your way to the cashier’s window with a winning ticket.

I have been in the business a while and built up some useful contacts along the way, but still, the thrill of picking winning horses was not something I got to experience too often until I Went to Aintree Races one Sunday and my life completely changed.

I wont bore you with the particulars but to make a long story short I met became friends with a particular punter after meeting him though one of my close friends (an apprentice jockey you would know of about if you follow the sport.)

Now I cant name him for legal and data protection reasons but lets just say…

The type of punter who has Trainers, owners, breeders, jockeys, clockers, grooms, and expert handicappers on speed dial,

They know when a horse is in peak condition, when a recent ailment has been overcome, when an equipment change has worked, when a workout says its time to bet… and he can bet unquantifiable sums on races based on this information .

This guy is so deep in the game he has network of people who place bets for him!

For those of you that dont know, most bookmakers categorise the value each customer brings. Good customers, (or habitual losers) are A Grade and their system slides down according to the win-to-lose ratio of the customer.

As I fit the criteria of a “good customer” I was offered a position in his network as a commission agent, and I was more than happy to accept.

A commission agent is basically a middle man who places large bets on horses for people within the racing industry.

Myself and a team of others would place MASSIVE bets on his behalf as and when needed! His instructions were often to “Get as much on as you can” No limit!! in some cases £70,000 or more, and he would accept whatever was returned!

Now most people would assume that such business guarantees the procurement of inside information, possibly of the highest calibre….but they’d be wrong!

This Particular punter is modest and nearly OBSESSIVE about his privacy, the first time we met I asked him bluntly over a pint

“How do you do it”??…and his reply was simply…

However I did get the him to open up somewhat eventually and he shared with me (and continues to share with me) some extremely valuable information regarding uk race courses.

He wouldn’t divulge his exact methods or share his sources but the information i get is more than enough to make my betting pay, and in 6 months I was Dominating the online tipster competition forums and transforming my online betting accounts in the process.

Fast Forward 2 years and im still here today providing a small network of punters with this priceless information.

I created this website with the intention of expanding the network…and show how you too can sneak your way into this exclusive, elusive group to cash in on the same winning horses normally reserved only for racing’s elite circle.

1. “If you’re looking for a lot of “action” 24/7, Spot Winners is not for you”

Yes, we like to gamble. But NO, we do not like to lose.

Our source is very meticulous and extremely particular about his advice. Only three or four horses meet his precise criteria on any given day and on some days none at all.

2. This gentleman insists that his involvement remain in “the background” and that his selections MUST NOT SHARED with anyone outside of this select network.

We are taking a risk by allowing private thoughts and opinions from racings elite to enter the public domain so if you do join us we ask that you keep this information to yourself!

Yes, your mates, spouses and family members will wonder about your “new fortune.” And you will be expected to “pick up the tab” on a regular basis.

When profits like these are building up in YOUR betting accounts, you will be able to afford to.

Why Trump Will Get Re-elected

Massaging the fatigue of a Democratic primary that has gone on forever, we’ve come to the worrisome conclusion that Joe Biden’s the most likely person to face off against DJT. Let me preface this essay by saying I’m going to vote for Biden, or Bernie–any one other than Trump–but I deeply fear Biden is actually the weakest Democratic candidate of everyone we’ve seen…except maybe Marianne Williamson.

Let’s start by taking an abbreviated glance at who was on the field, and how things have changed as the season have browned the grass, leaves and fallen and frost snuck in. In the summer of 2019, we saw so many candidates on the state that we were reminded of the 2015 Republican primaries–too many names to remember, too many biographies to examine. Obama was in his last term and I guess Conservatives thought there’s finally a chance for someone new. In the 2019 Detroit debates, there were 20 candidates, all with the idea that America was so sick of Donald J. Trump that we’d vote for anyone other than the sitting President. Anyone running could garner a few million dollars in contributions, just for not being Trump. The family separation at the border was going on, and America hated Trump as an affront to family, which was the historical domain of the conservative politicians. It was hot, humid, in the upper 80s in New York and there was a sense of pride that so many intelligent and accomplished people could come from the Democratic Party and get up there on stage and be moderated by Fox News. The debates took place in two nights and the three front runners of each night–Warren, Sanders, Buttigieg; Biden, Harri, Booker–would all continue on.

There were some stunts going on in August, September, but it was more or less the usual onslaught of tiresome headlines of America’s biggest persona non-grata. Stupid remarks, fake maps of hurricanes, typical bullshit that we’ve come to accept from the stupidest person to enter American politics.

But eyes really turned away from the primaries to the impeachment preceding in late September. The House. Then the delay. He said, she said, holidays looming, finally gets to the Senate for their evisceration of logic and constitutional protection. By February casualties of the impeachment included John Delaney, Cory Booker, the mystic Marianna Williamson, Julian Castro. The field narrowed.

There wasn’t much to see at the impeachment trial hearings, because everyone knew the outcome they wanted before he was even tried. And politicians are exceptionally bad actors, so watching them try to deliver lines was just painful. The biggest injustice to reasoning were the president’s own personal lawyers who’s central defense was “the impeachment aimed to reverse the outcome of the 2016 election.” That was a multi-million dollar argument, rehashed from something Lindsay Graham said in passing in the hallway, muttering to a person from the press. What’s particularly infuriating and an assault on basic reasoning is that, to reverse the 2016 election results would mean Hillary Clinton would become President if Trump were removed, but in fact the Vice President would become the President. This sort of non-nonsensical shorthand is not new in the Republican Party, but it’s surprising that the mercenaries that Trump brought into Washington to defend him couldn’t come up with a better explanation about Trump’s call to the Ukraine.

The Iowa Caucuses held on Feb 3, 2020 showed Buttigieg in first place, Sanders in second, Warren in third, Biden fourth and Klobuchar fifth, Gabbard sixth, or last.

February 5, 2020 Trump is acquitted from the Senate Impeachment trial. It was the outcome that pretty much anyone who could count to 100 expected. What wasn’t explicit was what the acquittal actually meant.

With the exception of the Biden, most of the Democratic candidates have faded out of the public until the impeachment hearings were over. Biden’s campaign tried to swing the whole thing as exemplary of the fear Trump had for Biden. Yes, Trump was so fearful of Biden, that I needed Ukraine to investigate Biden so Biden wouldn’t run for President. It’s a good narrative, except the Burisma conspiracy began in 2015.

What was overlooked in the impeachment of Trump is that his acquittal equates to the vilification of Joe Biden, in terms of corrupt practices between the United States and Ukraine. By not finding Trump guilty–remember, this is guilt corruptly engaging Ukraine, forget the articles of impeachment that the House actually approved–the message is essentially that Trump was vindicated in his pursuit to get to the bottom of Ukrainian corruption, i.e. Biden’s involvement in Ukrainian corruption. Yes, no one’s mind was changed in the impeachment trail, but those siding with Trump will have the sense that, not only was Trump unfairly treated by Democrats, but that his actions were warranted to undo the corruption of Joe Biden. It’s reverse logic, but if Trump’s not the villain in American/Ukrainian corruption, Biden is guilty.

Not only does the Democratic party hope this isn’t the interpretation, the Biden campaign crosses its fingers that everyone will just forget about that whole impeachment thing, and the side notes about Ukraine, and Joe’s own implicated corruption.

Billionaire Tom Steyer was in until a bigger billionaire, Mike Bloomberg came in and actually spent money. Bloomberg’s campaign hinged on the lackluster of the centrists, which may have suggested that Democrats weren’t comfortable with Biden and maybe even Biden understood he wasn’t the strongest candidate. Then Elizabeth Warren kicked Michael Bloomberg in the balls so hard, the stock market felt it. He dropped out and then she drops out.

A repeated, unifying slogan during the Democratic primaries was beat Donald Trump. Each candidate would extol his or her record of winning, unique strategy, or ability to reach his base. The debates shared headlines with the Corona Virus.

But is the real way to beat Donald Trump? Remind America about how he tried to rig the election, the second time: Remind America of the impeachment. You don’t need to go into details, you don’t need to remind the public about the arguments for against, but you do need to be able to mention the country that he aimed to coerce Ukraine, and that he’s a cheater. In the last four years, there has been a non-stop barrage of transgressions by the President, ranging from cringe-worthy idiocracy, to down-right blatant corruption and heresy, were I to believe in a higher power. But it’s impossible to mention the impeachment in a debate, or even as a political platform for Biden. The impeachment was supposed to be summary of all of Trump’s illegalities, wrapped up into a nice sound bite, something like this: “You tried to undermine our democracy by coercing Ukraine. And that’s just one example of your blatant corruption.” That’s it. Just repeat that, after every point on the stage, nail the topic home. That’s all you have to do. You don’t need policy, you don’t need wit, looks aren’t necessary. You don’t need a track record or proof you’re a better candidate. The impeachment proceeding already divided the country with those who wanted him gone–those who’ll vote for anyone other than Trump–and those who’d side with him even if he were trying to make the Internet illegal. Anyone could beat him in a debate by mentioning Ukraine, anyone except for Joe Biden.

Why not Joe Biden? Because when he mentions “Ukraine,” Trump is going to dive into the conspiracy theory about Ukraine, Hunter Biden being on the board of Burisma, a natural gas company, and point the finger of corruption at Joe. In a debate, Biden isn’t going to have time to respond to the myriad of nuances which purport no-foul play. It’s 90 seconds. And Trump’s going to interrupt by saying “corrupt, corrupt, corrupt.” And that’s all that going to happen.

For those who have been living in a cave for the last four years, those who don’t watch the news, or follow politics, i.e. “swing voters,” they might actually try to figure out what the hell is Trump talking about. But let’s be realistic: No one has time to read the various reputable articles by the New Yorker [1], New York Times, or the Washington Post, which explains the nuances of the Hunter Biden/Burisma world and how he was allegedly working against corruption. In a country of 350 million people, catch phrases like Lock Her Up, or Fake News penetrate more deeply than hour-long interviews on the Council on Foreign Affairs.

What the undecided are left with is three variations of conspiracy theory:

1) Some Biden supporters think that the entire Hunter Biden narrative is a conspiracy, including the fact that he was a board member of Burisma. Sorry, he was. That’s a fact. [2]

2) Some right-wing conspiracy theory that Joe Biden interfered with the investigation of Shokin to protect Hunter. Sorry, he didn’t. It was the opposite.

3) Whether any conspiracy theory is true. That is, whether anyone was conspiring at all.

What all of this amazing journalism by the New York Times, New Yorker, and Washington Post fail to cover is why Hunter was on the board of a Ukrainian company in the first place. What’s implied is he was trying to uproot corruption. He was trained as lawyer and worked as a lobbyist. But seriously, there’ a question why does a Ukrainian natural gas company need an American on their board of directors? Is it legal counsel? Right, no lawyers in Ukraine. Is it his expertise in working in natural gas that garnered him $50,000/week for months? There’s something fishy and even the staunchest Biden supporters concede that, while Joe wasn’t involved, his son shouldn’t have been on that board.

I’m happy to suspend any suspicion of Hunter, or even concede “that’s the way the world works.” If you’re the son of a politician, you get on board of natural gas companies in foreign countries and get huge sums of money and nothing illegal is going on. But it’s patently irresponsible for Democrats to expect that Fox News watchers will be so generous and unrealistic that undecided voters will come to my conclusion.

If we can estimate the creativity and cleaver strategies of the Trump campaign for 2020, we can rest assured it will be similar to the 2016 campaign: repeat a singular, simple, unexplained narrative until seeds of doubt sow into a conspiracy theory. For Hillary R. Clinton it was the missing emails. Yes, there were emails missing. She apologized for it. [3] 2020 will be Trump repeating again and again, Burisma. Hunter Biden. He’s going to say that in every debate and on every interview. And it’s even worse because the story already circulates on Fox News and Hill thanks to John Solomon. Like the missing emails, there is no explanation as to why Hunter Biden was on the board of Burisma. Surprisingly, Democrats seem oblivious to the massive, Trump strategy, right in plain sight.

Out of plain sight is Rudy Giuliani. Where the fuck has he been since September? I’m guessing he lurking around Ukraine, digging up dirt. You can bet the day after Sanders concedes to Biden, Rudy will be back on Fox and Friends talking up the corruption of the Bidens and Burisma.

But even if you forget about Burisma, there’s something troubling about a Vice President or President whose son’s job title includes lobbyist. Are you fucking serious? In an era when people are trying to reduce the influence of money and special interest groups in American democracy, you’re going to elect a person whose son’s profession is to influence democracy with special interest?

Going back to the 2016 election results, we saw a clear trend among millenials voting for Democrats. The writing was on the wall: the days of the Republican party are numbered. Fortunately, the Democrats too advantage of this ground swell and put in place a candidate who reflected…wait…the values of our grandparents? Are you serious? If either Biden or Sanders gets elected, they’ll be oldest elected sitting President in history?

But we’ll get some reprieve to know that the states that went to Obama in 2012, but to Trump in 2016 are still up for grabs. Many people have wondered, how could this ideological flip occur? How could people who voted for Obama in a landslide, either stay home or vote for Trump four years later? Well, fortunately, Biden is a bet because nothing brings out black voters like a guy who voted…wait, he voted against the Civil Rights Act?

Well, surely, if such a complicated candidate as Biden is compared to Trump, Americans will choose the lesser of the two evils. Yeah, uh, have you googled “Clinton lesser of two evils”? They didn’t vote against the lesser, even though the explicit comparison of two people to evil in a country that is purported separated by church and state makes one wonder how this could be case.

It’s almost as if the centrist (dare I call them “establishment”) Democrats went down the list of everything that people hated about Clinton and came up with Joe Biden. Except, of course, the fact that Clinton was a woman and mobilized female voters. Again: Biden falls short. Not only does he awkwardly hug too long, or say inappropriate things to women, there’s the whole the prequel Brett Kavanaugh trial, aka the Clarence Thomas Affair, in which Biden silenced Anita Hill.

Now it seems we’re faced with candidates: Bernie Sanders, who isn’t even a Democratic, and Joe Biden. The issue with Sanders is his entire platform would be impossible to get passed by the Senate, as not even members of his own party would vote for health care for all. But the problem with Biden is even worse. It’s not clear why even Democrats would choose a candidate with the suspicion of corruption. Is it that hope no one will mention the root of the impeachment of Trump? Is it that they think Trump being re-elected is less detrimental than Sanders getting elected?

Quote

Sharing is caring! One of the biggest misconceptions I have come across is that to make it big in blogging you have to start from scratch. And if you are not able to maintain your blog, it is just a matter of time before your website dies down and you lose your investment. Amazingly, both of these issues can be tackled with one simple thing: domain flipping. Domain flipping is not limited to domains; it is applied to websites as well as for applications and online businesses. With the internet, you can sell almost everything online. You need to find the right audience to pitch to. How does domain flipping tackle the above two issues? If you don’t want to start from scratch, how about buying a working website which is generating either some traffic or revenue. It can be said as a micro-acquisition. Although for this you will require some money beforehand. If you are not able to maintain your website, how about selling it for a good amount? People love websites that can be scaled. To make websites from scratch is a drag and if you have a good traffic-generating website, you can earn a good amount. Why Sell and Buy Websites? As a buyer: If you are entering the blogosphere, you might want to start from scratch. But the problem from starting from scratch is that you will have to spend a lot of time thinking about the theme for your website, domain name, what the logo should be. There are a lot of necessities that need to strike off your checklist before you even get to produce actual content. Buying a website will cut this part out. You will have a registered website with themes, logos, and banners. They might also have other social media accounts to promote their website. You need to come with new strategies to increase the website’s exposure. You can also buy domain names, have it with you and sell later at higher prices. People have made a good amount of money off this. Some people create fully functional websites and then flip them over for a good sum of money. As a seller: This often happens when your interest vanishes from your website. Or, maybe it is because you have committed your time to other activities. The bottom line is: it’s getting tougher and tougher for you to maintain the website. Rather than waiting for the website to slowly die, with a minor investment, you can get a 4-5 figure price for your website (for starters; if you have sufficient stats to appeal). You are not limited to websites, though; you can also sell your applications, online businesses, and domain name to cash in for bucks. [embedded content] Here are some of the best places to sell online where. you can buy sell and trade websites #1. Flippa Flippa is undoubtedly the #1 website to buy and sell websites. You ask why? Because it was one of the first websites to pioneer this entire dealing of buying and selling websites. It pioneered the entire industry and has made a whopping 375 Million dollars to date. 30% of all their income came through flipping domains, and most of the remaining part came from flipping websites (working websites). Although they started with domains, they have increased their offerings to buy and sell. Now they also deal with apps, ads, SaaS, and eCommerce, all the while their major income coming from flipping websites and domains. Flippa has made the entire process quite easy. It works on an auction basis, kind of like how eBay works. You might wonder how the users set the price of their websites; Flippa has provided users with an evaluation tool. It takes in several factors: the major source of revenue, average views you are getting, how old the domain is, and so on to calculate the best value you can get by selling your website. After you have the value, you can do the posting on your own, which would cost you about $15. Flippa has made it so, to make the marketplace genuine. If you don’t want to get into the hassle of putting up an ad and everything you can also contact the company’s approved brokers who will sell it on your behalf. Perhaps one of the drawbacks is that you get charged a 10% fee if your website is sold, and it is sold between $1-$499K (which is usually what small to medium-sized domains get sold for). But to counter this, they have their price guarantee program according to which if any other website is asking for a lesser success fee, Flippa will beat their offer by 1%. Also, you have other features to boost your listings and increase the chances of it getting sold. Fun fact: Mark Zuckerberg’s infamous website Facemash got sold here. #2. Empire Flippers Empire Flippers comes second when it comes to the total worth of transactions done at $100 Million. It is a growing company and slowly catching up with Flippa. Like Flippa, they have forayed into all the areas:‌SaaS, online businesses, websites, domains, AdSense ads. They don’t deal with apps, as Flippa does. There have been cases of fraudulent transactions in Flippa, where the data that was provided in the listing didn’t correspond to the actual data after the final user purchased the goods. To tackle this, Empire Flippers have tried their best to make it complete fraud-proof. They charge you a 5% refundable deposit. With this deposit, you get 12 month’s data so that you can make a sound decision with all the right facts across the table. Plus, the team also vets each data record carefully and diligently gives you an expected profit margin. To make it more secure, they also set up call conversations between sellers and buyers. They have tried to differentiate themselves from Flippa in terms of security by taking the job of the broker in their own hands. As such, they don’t contact 3rd party brokers as Flippa does. Another unique offering is their regular podcast, which is a great show to tune into. The major drawback with this is that to maintain this level of vetting, they charge $297 for first-time listing, which is way too much. For a repeated listing, it drops to $97, which is still higher to Flippa’s paltry $15. But they try to counter this that this fee is refunded if they, for some reason, can’t list your business. #3. WebsiteBroker WebsiteBroker was founded in 1996. Predating almost all the websites present on this list by a decade or so. While you might expect it must be doing something right to sustain itself over the years, that’s the most mysterious part. They haven’t adapted their styling to a more user-friendly pattern, like how the earlier two did. They have provided you with an inbuilt valuation service so that you can get a rough estimate of how much you should be expecting. Pricing starts at $9.95 for standard listings and $29.95 for (premiere)domain and $14.95 for (premiere)domain name listing. Both of these will last for 90 days, with the premiere one supposedly gives you more exposure than the normal ones. One plus point with this is that it doesn’t charge a success fee. So your entire cost remains economically viable, and you don’t have to shell much compared to Empire Flippers and Flippa. Although on the flip side, people have complained a lot about its poor customer service. Where the earlier two provide some protection to buyers, here’s what WebsiteBroker’s official FAQ‌ says: We encourage all buyers to do their diligence when purchasing a website. WebsiteBroker is a marketplace, but we do not, and cannot, thoroughly investigate every website that is listed. As with any marketplace, it is your responsibility to protect yourself throughout your transaction. Surely not a good way to gain your user’s trust. Plus, people have complained about poor to no response from support staff. A good number of people have been scammed and there has been no protection against it. In fact, this one time, the same website’s listing was posted twice by the seller even after it was sold. #4. DigitalPoint Forum Unlike the other few websites mentioned here, how about doing the deal in one of the most popular forums on the Internet? In DigitalPoint Forum, you can find people selling websites, services, domains and lots more. It has a huge user base, and thanks to it, you can easily find customers at bay looking to buy websites. DigitalPoint caters to various sections with discussions ranging from Design, Development, Search Engines, and so on. Under the forum, there is a subsection of Domains and Websites in buy, sell and trade. Once you’re there, you can find various forum postings and look at each one individually. One of the added benefits of using a forum is that if you reply to any forum post, it will be made public. You can see if people have asked queries related to the websites which can help you make a decision. They have also diversified by making their marketplace website as a precursor to websites like Flippa. It may not be visually appealing, but they have tried to make the design pretty basic and simple. The marketplace ads are directly connected to the forum posts, and you can choose to reply to the forum post or text in private. This forum gives you various filters to help you get your preferred domain or website: from domain authority to page views to revenue; you can filter it out with multiple settings available for you. It doesn’t provide you with protection against scammers like Flippa and Empire‌Flippers do, you are at the mercy of luck and hope. But at the same time, it doesn’t charge you for any posting on the forum. Although a few restrictions have to be met, and you can’t create a new account and start posting for advertisement. This can be a thing to worry to a certain set of people as they would just want to sell their websites easily and don’t want to take the hassle to wait for some time and have a minimum number of posting(one of the conditions of forum) before allowed to do a listing on the website. #5. New Egg Marketplace One of the most popular marketplaces catering to selling and buying electronic goods online, they have now expanded their base to sell almost everything on the Internet. You have to get your business, i.e., your website verified by the New Egg team and apply to be a NewEgg seller. They have a strong marketplace with over ten and a half million products and presence in countries like the US and America. Once they approve your business, you can put a listing for your website/domain on a new egg. They take a commission between 13-15% for every website you sell, so that is one of the breakaway points. But it gives you a wider reach to both B2B and B2C customers. Also, since they don’t give you explicit support in helping you get the domains, it is like a regular marketplace, and you have to deal with the seller directly. Although the legitimacy of ads can’t be doubted as NewEggs look at the legitimacy of the business and its offering before allowing a posting on their service. #6. Sedo One of the oldest running websites in this business, Sedo, only deals with websites. You can deal with websites, domains and even parking of websites, which is something not offered by most of the other websites. Sedo was founded in 2000 and has had over 19 million listed domains. If you are on the buying end, you don’t have to give them any commission over it. There are multiple options of buying: some websites have the option of direct buy, some have the option to negotiate, and finally, some websites are up for grabs in the form of auction. You can also take the help of their expert domain brokers, although you have to pay a hefty one-time fee of $69 and a further 15% commission for successful sales. You can also get brokers for selling your domains and websites, in which case you only have to pay a 15% cut for every successful sale. To make the entire buying and selling experience a pleasant one, they offer users with domain transfer service, which helps you protect against any malpractice and scamming. You also get a valuation service from Sedo, and they give you a report on how much your domain/website worth is. Both of these services are free for Sedo users. Another amazing feature I liked was their parked domain. Usually, if you have a domain with yourself that is unused, you can effectively monetize it to generate extra money for yourself. Sedo does that free for you, i.e., looks for advertisers, posts advertisements relevant to the domain name, and even paying you. So if you have an unused domain, instead of showing a page under construction or empty page, how about making some money out of it. #7. BuySellEmpire If you surely want to sell your website, BuySellEmpire can give you a helping hand.

In fact, in the FAQs, they have said that it is the users themselves who should take the utmost care while dealing with sellers. They don’t charge you for listing. You can submit your project online. Plus, there is no option for getting you to the featured section. They take it on merit basis, which website is good enough to be promoted on their featured section. If you are looking for fully functional websites, side projects can be a great help to you. Although what restricts its appeal is its lack of offering of selling and buying of domains; and the lack of support over protection against any scamming. Conclusion People usually look for websites with scope for progress and development. If your website or blog under their criteria of selection, you can finesse some money out of your website. So here are the top 10 websites to sell and buy websites. There’s a lot of money to be made online just by selling and buying websites if you know some basic rules.

How to speed up SEO analysis: API advantages for SEO experts

Who can argue that building an SEO strategy is not a time-consuming thing? Keyword research, niche analysis, technical audit, link building — all these tasks are just a small part of an SEO’s daily routine.

Willing to automate search engine optimization processes, experts use special tools and software. But it’s not always sufficient when analyzing the results

Of course, solving some basic issues for a small website isn’t that difficult with quality SEO tools. On the other hand, if you work with several sites and analyze lots of data, you’ll need to find ways of saving your time. At this point, people may look into implementing other methods into their working process. Here usually come various SEO extensions and plugins. They are very convenient as you can activate them in one click right from the page you’re analyzing.

However, extensions often have even fewer features than the SEO tool itself. If taking a closer look at the issue, there’s one more decision to be found. I’m talking about APIs, the method few people know how to use, missing the opportunity to benefit a lot. In this article, I’ll tell you what an API is, why you need it, and how to use it to fulfill SEO tasks.

What is an API?

API stands for an application programming interface. It’s a set of functions that lets users get access to the data or components of the tool. In other words, an API is a set of methods of communication among several applications.

APIs may serve for various purposes. For instance, developers often use them to embed some objects into websites. If you see a piece of Google Maps on a site, it means that the Google Map API is being used there. The same may be done with apps or tools.

Why does an SEO expert need this?

The right API helps experts to simplify the whole process of data collection. Some SEO tools offer an opportunity for their customers to use their APIs and drive better results. It lets users integrate analytics provided by platforms into their custom interface tools. With an API, you can request data and get it, while not even managing the tool’s interface.

Advantages of an API:

Speeds up data processing. In case you need urgent reports, the speed of data collection with APIs will come in handy.

Customizable. Combine several reports and sort the obtained results in one click for the automation of your tasks.

Saves you time. Instead of making single requests 100 times in a row, you can conduct a batch analysis of the data.

Lets you integrate the analytics with your business documentation. You can get the results of the research in an external document like Google spreadsheets.

Four tasks you can better solve with an API

As previously mentioned, APIs let you make your SEO research much more flexible than typical tools do. So, what tasks exactly do APIs help with, and how can you use them for maximum profit?

While SEOs have various issues to deal with, there are different platforms created to facilitate keyword research, niche analysis, content curation, and evaluation of the results. Some of these tools provide APIs to make the research even more effective. Below you’ll find the tasks an API may help you cope with and the tools providing such a method for their customers.

1. Keyword research and batch analysis of websites

A comprehensive niche analysis and proper keyword research are the first tasks appearing in an SEOs’ to-do list when they get to a new project. SEO tools meet these needs very well. Unless you don’t want to spend your time analyzing each competitor or keyword individually. For this purpose, quality tools provide their APIs.

With Serpstat API, conducting complex research becomes easier than ever before. The thing is that working with it you don’t even have to know how an API actually works. Serpstat has created several documents with scripts already implemented there. It means that all you need to do is to enter your token and create your request. This document allows you to take advantage of all the Serpstat API methods in one place.

This API includes domain analysis, URL analysis, and keyword research features. It provides 17 reports on competitors, domain history, top pages, related keywords, missing phrases, and more. For example, if you want to know your competitors’ domains, you can do it in several clicks without spending limits on analyzing each website separately. Here’s a step-by-step instruction on how you can do that.

Step 1: Generate your token in your Serpstat account. Starting from Plan B (69$ a month), every user has access to the API. If you don’t have one, contact the support team via live chat to discuss options.

Step 2: Open the document and make a copy of it.

Step 3: Enter your token into the cell.

Step 4: Select a database from a dropdown list.

Step 5: Enter a list of your competitors’ domains.

Step 6: Choose domains > Domain info report in Serpstat tab

Step 7: Watch the following results

2. Content curation

Knowing the most trending topics and articles is the basic thing everyone who wants to attract their target audience needs to know. Moreover, tracking your content performance helps publishers improve their strategies to drive higher traffic and engagement.

As blog owners usually run lots of documentation to provide reports on their marketing results, integrating tracking tools into their own applications is extremely useful and helps save time a lot.

The Buzzsumo API provides a wide range of filters. Applying them, you’ll get highly specific reports that handle content creation processes for you. You can not only analyze your pages but also see your competitors’ top articles. Such reports will help you come up with the most engaging types of content.

Its standard API has five resources:

Most Shared API. This API will help you fetch the share counts for a single URL. With it, you can also track the most popular content for a particular domain name or a keyword.

Top Influencers API. If you want to find out who the influencers for a specific topic are, this API is for you.

Links Shared API. It lets you discover recent links shared by a certain influencer.

Article Sharers API. It shows you people who shared your article on Twitter within the first 2-3 days after the publication.

Trending API. Using this API, you’ll get the articles trending today.

Links shared API request and response examples:

3. Monitor backlinks

Backlink analysis is another essential part of SEO. This process helps people see their link profiles’ weak points and discover new link building opportunities.

To integrate your applications with backlink analysis reports, you can use Majestic API. It’s available on Platinum and API plans. The full API lets you discover the following information:

Available backlink data collected in the past 120 days

Backlink data over the past 5 years

Whether the link was still live when the site was crawled last time

Anchor texts

The date the link was found

Whether the link was marked as “nofollow,” and more

4. Get performance metrics

Running a website and not analyzing the results it gives is a complete waste of time. So, it’s pretty difficult to find a person who owns a website and doesn’t have a Google Analytics account. The tool provides you with a deeper understanding of your audience, evaluate your marketing performance, and helps you find out what tactics that are working the best. However, accessing this data via the tool itself isn’t always convenient.

Website owners often need to build custom dashboards and integrate their analytics reports with their business applications. For instance, if you want to create a KPI dashboard for your marketing team, integrating Google Sheets with Google Analytics will be the best decision.

The Google Analytics reporting API allows users with the following:

Not only request built-in metrics but also call for a set of metrics expressed in mathematical operations.

Get the data in two date ranges in one single request.

Request cohort and lifetime value reports.

Make complex reporting tasks automated to save time.

To combine the power of Google Analytics API with the power of data operation in Google Sheets, use the Google Analytics spreadsheet add-on. It’ll let you compute custom calculations, schedule reports creation, share the data with your team, visualize your reports and embed them to other websites. To install the add-on, read the step-by-step instruction by Google Developers.

Bonus: More ways to optimize SEO processes

APIs are extremely useful when you deal with vast data. And what if you need to get the results here and now? In these cases, browser extensions will be handy. They help quickly analyze your page, find technical issues, or research keywords without switching between the page and the tools. I’ll share four free SEO extensions for Google Chrome that are essential for marketers.

1. SEO TextOptimizer

If you deal with content, you probably know this tool already. If not, it’s the right time to start using it. SEO TextOptimizer measures the quality of your content based on the topic and the words you use in the text.

All you need to do is enter your main keyword into its search field. The extension will show you the optimization score with the words you’d better add or remove from the article.

2. Serpstat SEO & Website Analysis Plugin

This SEO extension lets Serpstat users conduct SEO analysis in one click. With it, you can analyze your competitors, get your site’s top-10 keywords, get the data on domain’s traffic, see its visibility trend for a year, and more.

Serpstat SEO & Website Analysis Plugin has three tabs (Page Analysis, On-page SEO Parameters, and Domain Analysis) providing detailed information on each aspect.

3. SEOquake

This extension is an interactive SEO dashboard with the SEO overview, backlink report, and other important metrics. However, its best feature is SERP analysis. It means that when searching for the query, you’ll see the bar providing the most crucial domain data below each search result. With SEOquake, you’ll get the following metrics without even clicking through the page:

Website traffic

Alexa rank

Total backlinks number

Domain’s age

The number of ads, and more

4. Woorank

The SEO and website analysis extension by Woorank is great for a quick analysis of the page’s SEO issues. It identifies crawl errors, usability, mobile friendliness, local directories, and more. The extension evaluates the total score of your marketing efforts and prioritizes all the issues for you to solve.

Optimize your working process for more effectiveness

The more tasks you have to solve, the more difficult it is to manage your time. Don’t limit yourself to SEO tools’ interfaces with the standard set of functions. Implement new methods into your SEO analysis processes to become more productive and save your time on manual work.

In Conversation with Priyan Garg of Karanjawala & Co. on his career journey in Business Development & Knowledge Management for firm

How would you like to introduce yourself to our readers?

I’m a lawyer by qualification, currently working as an Associate in Charge – Knowledge Resource handling Business Development and Knowledge Management portfolios at Karanjawala & Co. – a tier one Litigation & Dispute Resolution Law Firm based out of New Delhi. I graduated from Amity Law School, Noida in the year 2015 with an integrated degree in Law and Business Administration (BBA LLB(H)). Having worked for 3 years now in the legal marketing profession, I have a sharp view on the marketing of the firm whilst taking the legal view into account. I work with the senior management, partners and attorneys at all levels. I also have contacts in different sector areas and have the skill to convert a potential client to a permanent client.

While in college, I have interned at a number of places such as PSHRC (Punjab State Human Rights Commission), ASG Pinky Anand, Senior Advocate Geeta Luthra, Jyoti Sagar Associates, Luthra & Luthra (now L&L Partners), Karanjawala & Co., LexisNexis etc. but right after graduating from college, it was the marketing side of legal world which grabbed my attention. While a lot of fresh law graduates aim to join legal practice as a litigator or in corporate practice, it was the marketing side of the legal world which has not received much importance and has a lot of potential.

I started my career with LexisNexis handling Marketing, Business Development & Strategy portfolios and I am presently with Karanjawala & Co.

I was the recipient of Bronze Medal along-with consecutive 30% Merit Scholarships for four years at Amity University Noida. I was also the recipient of the citation “Best in Business Acumen & Awareness” and was awarded the “Shri Raian Karanjawala Trophy” for excellent all-rounder performance both in Academics and Corporate Activities. I also served as the Convener of Legal Entrepreneurship Club, Amity Law School, Noida.

What influenced/ motivated you to join law school? Which law schools did you apply to? How did you zero in on Amity Law School, Noida and why B.B.A. LL.B. (H)?

I passed out of Delhi Public School, Chandigarh in the year 2010 with non-medical stream but I chose law over sciences because I found one massive advantage in the legal field. Science in India is a domain that is extremely hard to enter, with difficult competitive examinations and few seats at State-run institutions. After one graduates with a degree in engineering or medicine, the task of building a career is very daunting. Law on the other hand, is quite the opposite. It is comparatively easy to study law and become an advocate, and far harder to establish oneself once enrolled. Aged seventeen, I felt it would be easier for me to challenge myself at a later stage, when I was more mature and had the backing of increased knowledge and a professional degree.

In the year 2010, to be honest, Amity was not my first choice as a law school. While I had heard good things about the institution, at the same time I was fearful of joining a privately run school. After CLAT, I had the option of joining a lesser-known National Law School. Nonetheless, I chose to undertake a program in law at Amity. There were three reasons behind this decision. First, being in Delhi allowed me to be closer to home (Chandigarh was only a few hours’ drive away). Second, in the NCR, I found myself at the heart of the Indian Legal System. Not only did this ensure that many successful personalities would be available in college for guest lectures and seminars, but also it increased my chances of gaining adequate work experience. With the best counsel, law firms and all levels of Courts present in the city, the opportunities for landing a good internship were many. Third, I was fascinated by the courses Amity had on offer. The B.B.A., LL.B (Hons.) programme offered the unique opportunity of studying economics and management with law. I find now that this combination has given both, a rounded character to my personality (having now studied science, commerce and arts), as well as prepared me to better understand the needs of corporate clients I may have in the future.

How would you describe five years of your college life? You have also a received a number of Corporate awards at your college such as “Best Business Acumen & Awareness” citation and “Shri Raian Karanjawala Trophy.” Please tell our readers about them?

I would like to believe that I made the most of my five years at law school. I studied when I was required to, and ensured I had time for my friends and myself too. Law does require lots of studying, yes, but a law school experience is incomplete without participation in volunteer programmes, co-curricular activities and sports. Looking back, I am glad I made the most of the resources I had available.

Apart from classroom studies, internships and mooting activities I always made it a point to be involved in various committees managing events happening in the University which gave me an overall exposure to what goes behind organising and hosting an event. During the five years of my law college, I actively organized the Amity International Moot Court Competition, Amity Quiz on Competition Law, Amity Competition on Law Reforms, Debates etc. According to me, there is no substitute for accuracy in knowledge. Know yourself, know your business, know your men, is the mantra of today’s success. Successful business persons understand the thin line of difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their benefits.

I received the citation of “Best in Business Acumen and Awareness” for displaying a charismatic persona, administrative acumen and managerial skills of a high order and the ability to combine compassion with steely resolve.

I received the Shri Raian Karanjawala Trophy on my convocation which has been constituted in the name of “Shri Raian Karanjawala”, an iconic legal luminary and a distinguished senior lawyer of India. His untiring efforts & contribution towards the development and maturing of legal systems have enhanced the image of India globally. Shri Raian Karanjawala Trophy is bestowed upon the student who has displayed extraordinary zeal and dedication towards learning and imbibing the tenets and spirit of the law. Also, the student who has shown praiseworthy performance in corporate courses, interned in law offices/firms and attended conferences and seminars based on corporate laws.

How important are the extracurricular and co-curricular activities for the law students? Please also tell our readers importance of mooting for a law student?

The legal profession is very entrepreneurial in nature. So it is very important to get yourself involved in various co-curricular activities, as it helps you learn a lot from the plethora of opportunities it presents. Being involved in sports always helps you to have a healthy mind and gives you a sense of confidence to be open to different sorts of challenges in life. It also connects you to a lot of people from different colleges and gives you a fresh perspective about things, when you need one.

Aside from academics, mooting is perhaps the most essential activity in a law student’s career. I participated in six moot court competitions focussing primarily on Constitutional Law. One may contest that the arguing system in a moot differs greatly from what one may experience in Court; however, I am of the firm belief that mooting gives one the right level of confidence in arguing etiquette and manner to be able to present cases before a real judge. Further, research being an essential component of any lawyer’s job, mooters will always find themselves at a significant advantage when faced with challenging research propositions at work.

My favourite moot was the Justice Bodh Raj Sawhny Memorial Moot Court Competition held at NALSAR University. While the moot itself may not compare to others on offer in India, the subject matter – constitutional law – gave participants the opportunity to present unique arguments and step in the shoes of some of our nation’s most eminent senior counsels.

What areas of law does Karanjawala & Co firm deal with?

Karanjawala & Co. is a full-service law firm and primarily deals in litigation and dispute resolution. The Firm was founded in the year 1983 by Mrs. Manik Karanjawala and Mr. Raian Karanjawala and operates today out of three offices in New Delhi.

The firm has a total of 9 partners and more than 100 advocates. It has over the years come to dominate the litigation landscape and has serviced a wide variety of diverse clients from prime ministers to captains of industry to the biggest corporate houses and the largest media companies. It is equally at ease handling the day to day cases of the ordinary litigant as it is handling the legal disputes of royal families.

Tell us about your experience at internships to shifting from Law to Management and handling Marketing, Business Development and Knowledge Management at LexisNexis India and then finally Karanjawala & Co.

I often compare law to medicine. To a layman, the job of a pathologist, while indispensable, doesn’t seem as exciting as that of a surgeon. To someone not yet initiated into the legal fraternity, the distinction between transactional law and litigation can appear similar. There is an indubitable excitement about litigation, about forming strategies and arguing before judges, that makes litigation attractive. It is for this reason that I found myself lured by the field.

Having said that, interest in a field is not essential to get an internship in that field. Unfortunately, most internships in India are awarded through the applicant’s contacts or network. Where firms or practitioners accept applications, emphasis is usually laid on the candidate’s academic record and university, with secondary regard being given to non-academic achievements. I was very fortunate to have a good academic record, thereby ensuring that many applications were accepted. I also made a conscious effort to apply early and to continue to follow up with the organisation until they sent me a response. I’ve found that applications are not always replied to; “getting after” a firm to view your application is essential.

Coming from a non-legal background, there was always a hunger in me to learn and explore different fields of law, owing to which I made it a point to intern and apply at a variety of organisations. I was fortunate to intern at a number of premier institutions such as Punjab State Human Rights Commission (PSHRC), Additional Solicitor General of India (ASG) Pinky Anand, Geeta Luthra, Hon’ble Justice Ravindra Bhat, Luthra & Luthra Law Offices, Jyoti Sagar Associates, PepsiCo India Holdings Pvt. Ltd., Karanjawala & Co., LexisNexis India etc.

Post my stint as a Campus Ambassador at Lawctopus, I applied to be a Student Ambassador at LexisNexis India in my fourth year of law school. Having been associated with LexisNexis India for an entire year, which is a leading legal, taxation and academic publisher, my inclination towards the organisation increased and I was interested in understanding how a publishing house really operates. During the final semester internship I applied for an internship with the LexisNexis India and joined the Marketing Team as a trainee.

The primary reason for this shift was my desire to explore the second half of my degree, “Business Administration”. LexisNexis India gave me the opportunity to work in the management domain, though within the legal sphere. Legal and managerial knowledge was essential to the job, and I was lucky to have a degree in both.

Secondly, I have never supported the conventional view of necessarily practicing law after studying law. There are a plethora of avenues out there, waiting to be exploited. I always wanted to use my acquired legal skills in a business environment, my long term aim being to become an entrepreneur. I think law gives you the edge of knowing the regulatory framework well enough, understanding the compliances and understanding the statutory and other measures required and applying them to run a business. I believe people working in organizations in the top positions ought to have a decent understanding of the law, in order to manage business in their top capacities. Discovering a new avenue was my primary motivation in this journey.

What are the responsibilities you hold at Karanjawala & Co?

As an Associate in Charge – Knowledge Resource, I look after Business Development & Knowledge Management of the firm. I’m involved in the indirect marketing of the firm by looking after the visibility of the firm.

Having worked for 3 years now in the legal marketing profession, I have a sharp view on the marketing of the law firms whilst taking the legal view into account. At Karanjawala & Co. I work with the Senior Management and Partners at all levels looking after their Knowledge Management and Business Development.

The Job Profile includes:-

Working very closely with The Managing Partner and the Partners on the Marketing Strategies and Business Development of the different practice areas of the firm.

Brand Development

Publications on Legal Media Platforms & Research involved.

Visibility of Firm over different platforms both domestic & international.

Strategic Consulting – Including Business Plans & Marketing Strategy Development.

Preparing Whitepapers for Conferences.

Liaising Strategic Collaborations with Legal Events in the Country and representing the firm in them.

Preparing submissions for legal awards in Indian market & International.

Preparing Write ups and submissions for firm rankings in prominent legal directories such as Asialaw, Chamber & Partners, Indian Business Law Journal, Legal 500 etc.

What according to you are the loopholes in the current legal education system? How do you think they can be resolved?

Presently, the major problem with the legal education system in the country is that it is centred around examinations. The whole process of examinations is about evaluating student on a fixed pattern and then giving ranks to them.

In such a scenario, knowledge is often limited to memorizing and reproducing the same in the examinations. A students innate talents are not recognized; instead their capability in writing examination is being tested. Such a system is not promoting innovation and creative testing of the individual rather it only test the memory power of the students.

There is also a great void in the legal space when it comes to original academic writing. It is the Indian education system that is largely at fault for this; students are taught to learn another’s views, not taught to think for themselves or to form their own opinions. The legal space is full of unoriginal work. To illustrate, an article titled “The Law of Arbitration in India” is not an original academic work. Such an article, like most one reads nowadays, merely summarizes the law on a subject. At best, a paragraph is saved at the end for the author’s own opinion. It is incredibly rare to find new approaches to law, new solutions to legal problems, or strong criticisms of existing legislation and precedent.

What are the most essential qualities that the young budding lawyers should inculcate to achieve success in their career?

Initially, I believe that each and every budding lawyer needs to be patient, be articulate with his words, and should be a voracious reader. Opportunities in the beginning are hard to come by, so one needs to have the fortitude and persevere through the day, and make the most of the moments. Reading and writing is something that will always help one develop their skills that is required to navigate through the day to day demands of being a lawyer.

Further, one should also learn not to doubt oneself. Of course one should ask questions when you have them, but they should also have faith in your education and intellect. Another thing that one should remember is that you have to own your mistakes. You’re going to spend the rest of your life trying to convince people they should take your word for things. It’s easier to convince people you’re right if they’ve learned you will admit it when you’re wrong.

One should also develop their leadership skills early by taking on new challenges, seeking mentorship from top lawyers, building an expertise in their practice area, and becoming actively involved in conferences and seminars.

What would be your message/ suggestions to the young law students?

I have been fortunate that I had Associates, seniors, bosses and colleagues who made me work hard, push boundaries and stretch myself beyond the call of a regular job. Consider yourself lucky if you have such company. There is no fun in living a life that you don’t feel proud of. A life where you have just passed your time. Build a list of accomplishments behind you. The learnings you will get in the process will transform you and your thinking process completely. That’s what will make you a leader ultimately. There are no short cuts to success. The more grind you undergo – the stronger you become. The hardest aspect of managing your own self-development is that the biggest opportunities for improvement all exist outside your comfort zone. Since the risk of failure is obviously greater, finding the confidence to accept that risk can often be the largest obstacle to achieving your goals.

Law is not easy. There will be more than one occasion where you will question your choices and feel like giving up, even in your first year. Therefore, I believe one should only pursue it if one is passionate, if one truly loves the field. To put it simply, when you have no money and haven’t slept for a week, your love for law will give you all the strength you need.
