We are Google Certified Partner
The benefits of achieving Google Certified Partner status
Google offers a wide range of programs for individuals and organizations as part of its set of trainings and tools. The benefits of a firm becoming a Google Certified Partner are many: one can display the official “Google Certified Partner” banner, and be officially listed on Google’s Partner Pages. But there are also less obvious benefits that can accrue to partners: here are some of them:
- Staying abreast with evolving best PPC practices. Google’s best practices are made immediately available to certified members of the program, letting your staff stay on top of the rapidly changing developments in paid search.
- Better PPC performance. Fewer mistakes and better execution means overall lower CPCs, better ROI, and ultimately a stronger agency.
- Professional development. We are very enthusiastic about the Google training programs – not only does it open up the potential for an elevated position, but it makes us better, more knowledgeable professionals. Consequently we are better able to serve our clients, providing a win-win for us and the clients.
- Beta Features. As Certified Google Partner we have access to Google’s beta features. This means that after Google has developed a new feature or application, its partners can test and use this feature up to a year or more before it is available to the general public. Imagine the advantages to be gained by using Google marketing features a year before your competition even has access to it!
- Google partners can provide you huge financial savings on AdWords PPC cost: Please click on the link goo.gl/xhTVuo too see the possible promotions.

Failings have led to aunjustified inequalitiesa, says landmark report that finds little progress in 22 years since Macpherson
Police and governments have done too little to stamp out racial injustice in the ranks, with the failings being systemic and leading to aunjustified inequalitiesa, a report by an all-party committee of MPs has found.
The report by the home affairs committee was heavily critical of the progress made in the 22 years since the Macpherson report into why the white killers of Stephen Lawrence were allowed to go free, which blamed ainstitutional racisma

- Athlete is first Hmong American to represent US at Olympics
- Brazilas Rebeca Andrade wins silver, GBas Jessica Gadirova is 10th
Simone Biles stands at just 4ft 8in tall yet her presence has loomed large over gymnastics for what feels like an eternity. Since 2013, she has won the womenas all-around title every single occasion she has been present. Over time, second place had become the only realistic goal for which any other gymnast could strive.
And so, in the wake of Bilesa withdrawal from the all-around competition in Tokyo, the only question to be answered as the rest of the world marched on to the arena was how the top gymnasts would react to this new experience of having a gold medal clearly within reach.

This Olympics has seen the rise of new British stars, from the likes of Tom Dean and Duncan Scott in the pool to Tom Pidcock and Georgia Taylor-Brown on a bike. But one of those who has shone brightest is someone who hasnat actually competed.
That was not how Lutalo Muhammad originally planned it, with a third taekwondo medal in a third successive Olympics firmly in the 30-year-oldas sights before injury struck during qualification. It was a huge blow but Muhammad decided to dust himself off and take up the BBCas offer to be a pundit for its coverage of the four days of taekwondo, working from the Olympic studio in Salford. It was a step into the unknown but one that paid off given how Muhammad performed. He was a revelation, seen most clearly in the online reaction to his punditry. Twitter, it is fair to say, blew up.

aIam getting older,a sings Billie Eilish, whoas 19, on Happier Than Everas opening track. aIave got more on my shouldersa, she adds, which is certainly true. Her debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? wasnat just a huge global hit, but an album that significantly altered mainstream pop music. Two years on, streaming services are clotted with bedroom-bound, teenage singer-songwriters dolefully depicting their lives: anticipation for what the genuine article does next is understandably running very high.
When We All Fall Asleep a| was an album that turned universal teenage traumas a romance, hedonism, friendship groups a into knowingly lurid horror-comic fantasies, in which tongues were stapled, friends buried, hearses slept in and marble walls spattered with blood. That playfulness is less evident on its successor. It flickers occasionally, as on Overheatedas exploration of stardom in the era of social media, complete with death threats (aYou wanna kill me? You wanna hurt me?a she mumbles, before giggling: aStop being flirtya) or on NDA, where the apretty boya she entices home is required to sign the titular legal agreement before he leaves. But the overall tone is noticeably more sombre.

With the bassistas death, one of rockas great partnerships a where raunch met ranch in absurdist but progressive American music a has come to an end
aC/ ZZ Top bassist Dusty Hill dies aged 72
Dusty Hill was evidently used to being mistaken for someone else. Well, for one other person. In 2012, backstage at a strange festival in Maryland, I watched as drunk twentysomethings walked up to a man with a vast beard, eyes hidden behind shades. aBilly!a they shouted. aBilly, can I get a photo with you?a But Dusty Hill clearly didnat like being mistaken for Billy Gibbons, who stood a few feet away from him on stage with ZZ Top for more than 50 years, and he walked away without a word.
Gibbons tended to be the focus of attention: he was the guitarist; he took most of the lead vocals; he was the bandas great and delightful eccentric. But Hill, who died in his sleep aged 72, was just as important. He sang lead or co-lead on several of ZZ Topas best loved songs a his high, true tenor a contrast to Gibbonsa radioactive growl a and his bass tone was every bit as crucial to their sound as Gibbonsa guitar. And, perhaps even more importantly, the pair came as a double act, not just by looking so similar they could be mistaken for one another but also in the perfect, minimalist choreography of their stage show (aLow energy, high impact,a as Hill described it to me, later that afternoon in Maryland).

The procedure is deeply anti-democratic and violates the parliamentas founding principles. Hereas how it can be opposed
In 2002, as the Scottish parliament was debating a bill to provide the public with a groundbreaking new right to roam, the independent MSP Dennis Canavan spotted a provision that exempted the Queenas private Balmoral estate from this statutory right. Canavan managed to remove this exemption a but why had ministers ever drafted it in the first place? Did walkers climbing popular hills such as Lochnagar not deserve the same rights as those climbing every other hill in Scotland?
Since then, as the Guardian revealed this week, other acts of the Scottish parliament have exempted the Queenas personal estates from laws that apply to every other landowner in Scotland. At least 67 Scottish parliamentary bills have been vetted by the Queen over the last two decades, including legislation around planning laws, protections from tenants and property taxation.

This astonishing athleteas greatest triumph may be to make us confront the mental demands our culture puts on athletes
Simone Biles has given us many groundbreaking performances. This week she has pushed the boundaries of sport once more. Not by expanding her already extraordinary technical expertise as a gymnast but by challenging the persistent, macho narrative around what Olympic success and sporting strength should look like.
Biles follows tennis players Naomi Osaka at the French Open and Emma Raducanu at Wimbledon, who are unafraid to speak up in the global spotlight and place mental heath on the same level as physical health. Sadly, all have had their integrity, sporting prowess and character questioned. Michael Phelps revealed the extraordinary pressures and mental health struggles that he faced in a recent documentary called The Weight of Gold: the title says it all. Amid the stacks of gold medals and trophies, itas hard to dismiss Phelps, Osaka or Biles as aweak losersa (unless youare a certain brand of tabloid commentator). That means we have to think again. Surely we have had enough warning shots to realise the scale of the mental health crisis in sport a one that is also a mirror for wider society. Itas going to take more than a few extra wellbeing advisers to address the issue.

Weare falling desperately behind in the fight to get vaccines to all, as only 3% of people in countries that rely on Covax are protected
The world is witnessing the emergence of more infectious variants of the Sars-CoV-2 virus, but a stuttering race to ensure equitable access to vaccines has seen a handful of countries streak ahead, immunising their own populations, leaving many of the worldas vulnerable people in their wake.
Communities are struggling with impatience and fatigue, which is understandable. However, easing basic public health measures such as wearing masks and social distancing risks fuelling transmission. In combination with more infectious variants and the ame firsta attitude of some countries, people who are unvaccinated and those who have received only one dose are at increasing risk.

The reality show is highly problematic, and attracts viewer complaints of all stripes. But one TV show canat a and wonat a get to the root of bigger issues plaguing society
For just over a month now, Love Island (and therefore, Love Island discourse) has dominated the summer. Not since Take Me Outas 2010s reign has a British reality dating show generated so much conversation, alternately heralded as the best thing on telly and condemned as the most controversial. As predictable as the fast fashion collaborations are the complaints, whether it be Tweeters drawing up petitions or viewers escalating their grumbles to Ofcom.
It goes without saying that Love Island, like any other reality show, is problematic. To date, the most complained about episode is from season four, when fan favourite Dani Dyer sobbed as she learned that the ex-girlfriend of her love interest Jack Fincham had joined the show. Ofcom received more than 2,500 complaints and the show was accused of aemotional manipulationa. And this week, after two years of forgoing the infamous postcard that caused such distress, it was brought back to spice up what has been a largely uneventful series. Producers showed images of castmate Teddy Soares kissing another woman during a challenge, despite spending most of his time in Casa Amor pining after Faye Winters. Watching Faye put her walls up once again, faced with the misrepresentation of his behaviour, was infuriating rather than entertaining.

The drive for reform caused by the Stephen Lawrence scandal has stalled. A new Commons committee report issues a summons to action
It is 28 years since Stephen Lawrence was murdered in south London in an unprovoked racist knife attack, and 22 years since Sir William Macpherson published his groundbreaking report into the police handling of the case. The report led to significant reforms in the law, in policing, in addressing institutional racism and in the attention given to racist crimes. Since then, the pace of reform has slowed. Habits of unequal enforcement have crept back into police relations with black people and other minority communities, slowing the push towards equal recruitment and widening the gap in public confidence. It is past time to take up the cause of reform again.
In an important review of progress and setbacks since Macpherson, the Commons home affairs committee calls today for a new sense of urgency over these vital issues. It is important to recognise that the committee is composed of MPs from across parliament. Four of the members who adopted the report are Conservatives; four, including the chair, Yvette Cooper, are Labour, and one is a Scottish nationalist. In other words, this is a genuinely all-party report, and the authority of its conclusions is greatly enhanced by it.

Benevolent dictatorship is not the answer to the regionas real problems
This week has shown that Arab regimes are tough on dissent, but much less interested in its causes. This will create problems for years to come as these states struggle to recover from the pandemic. Tunisiaas presidential power grab is a test for Joe Bidenas democracy and human rights agenda. War has impoverished ancient centres of Arab civilisation. The UNas Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia this week pointed out that poverty now affects 88% of the population in Syria and 83% in Yemen. Even nations once considered wealthy have been brought low by an unhappy meeting of leadership failures and Covid-19. Lebanonas leaders are begging for foreign assistance after the local currency plummeted in value and the population ran short of food, fuel and medicine.
The Arab world is a varied place. The latest UN survey shows it diverging into wealthy Gulf absolute monarchies; a set of middle-income countries with more people than their oil reserves can comfortably afford; war zones in some of the largest nations such as Iraq; and very poor states. The oil-rich sheikhdoms are pulling ahead and using their financial and military clout to extend their influence, often with disastrous results. The Arab region, says the UN, hosts more than six million refugees and more than 11 million internally displaced persons. There is little coordinated action to deal with the numerous social challenges, including growing poverty, increased unemployment and persistent gender inequalities. Food insecurity has spread. One can be too downcast: the UN hopes for a silver lining in the prospect of peace in Libya.

Lucy Ellmann on 5,000 years of male-led environmental destruction
Arwa Mahdawi claims that men are not responsible for climate change (Donat blame men for the climate crisis a we should point the finger at corporations, 27 July). This lets men off the hook a little too lightly. Not only are they the instigators of the ruinous Industrial Revolution, which led to the vast contamination of air, water and land, but men have also spent the last 5,000 years fighting, killing, colonising, enslaving, marauding, and yelling about football.
Who invented the capitalist system that Mahdawi agrees is so destructive? And who owns the corporations she so rightly condemns? Men.

Rob Harris on why electric lorries are not the answer, and Prof LJS Lesley on the benefits of electrifying the rail network. Plus Graham Larkbey laments the neglect of an England-Wales border station
The experiment with electric lorries on the M180 (UK government backs scheme for motorway cables to power lorries, 27 July) is laughable when compared with the lack of interest shown by the government in furthering railway electrification at a time of an HGV driver shortage.
Just 8.5% of freight locomotives in the UK are electric. This lags lamentably behind mainland Europe, thanks in part to gaps as short as two miles in the electrified network. Aside from complete routes, there are merely 50 miles in total which, after electrification, could decarbonise over two million annual miles of freight haulage. Just 14 of these miles connect Britainas busiest container port, Felixstowe, to the electrified network at Ipswich. The gaps exist thanks to electrified lines largely following radial passenger flows from London, whereas freight routes ignore these.

World Rugby is under pressure to intervene after Rassie Erasmus, South Africaas director of rugby, launched another stinging attack on the refereeing of the opening Test of the British & Irish Lions series. Erasmus has also offered to step aside from the remaining two Tests if it delivers afairera treatment for the Springboks in Saturdayas second Test.
During an hour-long video containing 26 clips highlighting a range of decisions, Erasmus suggested the Australian referee, Nic Berry, and his assistants made several crucial mistakes which significantly influenced his sideas 22-17 defeat. He also raised eyebrows by alleging his World Cup-winning captain, Siya Kolisi, was shown less respect at key moments than his Lions counterpart, Alun Wyn Jones.

If cellular agriculture is going to improve on the industrial system it is displacing, it needs to grow without passing the cost on to workers, consumers and the environment
Americans will eat about 2bn chicken nuggets this year, give or take a few hundred million. This deep-fried staple is a way of profiting off the bits that are left after the breast, legs and wings are lopped off the 9 billion or so factory-farmed chickens slaughtered in the US every year. Like much else that is ubiquitous in contemporary life, the production of nuggets is controlled by a small group of massive companies that are responsible for a litany of social and ecological harms. And, like many of the commodities produced by this system, they are of dubious quality, cheap, appealing and easy to consume. Nuggets are not even primarily meat, but mostly fat and assorted viscera a including epithelium, bone, nerve and connective tissue a made palatable through ultra-processing. As the political economists Raj Patel and Jason Moore have argued, they are a homogenised, bite-size avatar of how capitalism extracts as much value as possible from human and nonhuman life and labour.
But if chicken nuggets are emblematic of modern capitalism, then they are ripe for disruption. Perhaps their most promising challenger is a radically different sort of meat: edible tissue grown in vitro from animal stem cells, a process called cellular agriculture. The sales pitch for the technology is classic Silicon Valley: unseat an obsolete technology a in this case, animals a and do well by doing good.

At the end of this week, the federal moratorium protecting renters in the US from eviction will end. As the Delta variant of Covid-19 spreads quickly across the country, and with vaccination rates still low in many areas at highest risk of eviction, millions of families could lose the safe haven of their homes. A surge in evictions will have dire public health consequences, but it could still be avoided.
Originally enacted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) eleven months ago, the eviction moratorium was established to prevent the spread of the virus among families and individuals that could be made homeless. As a public health measure, the moratorium was unprecedented and offered uniform protections to renters across the country.

Simone Biles has given us many groundbreaking performances. This week she has pushed the boundaries of sport once more. Not by expanding her already extraordinary technical expertise as a gymnast but by challenging the persistent, macho narrative around what Olympic success and sporting strength should look like.

Sadly, all have had their integrity, sporting prowess and character questioned. Michael Phelps revealed the extraordinary pressures and mental health struggles that he faced in a recent documentary called The Weight of Gold: the title says it all. Amid the stacks of gold medals and trophies, itas hard to dismiss Phelps, Osaka or Biles as aweak losersa (unless youare a certain brand of tabloid commentator). That means we have to think again. Surely we have had enough warning shots to realise the scale of the mental health crisis in sport a one that is also a mirror for wider society.

The reality show is highly problematic, and attracts viewer complaints of all stripes. But one TV show canat a and wonat a get to the root of bigger issues plaguing society
For just over a month now, Love Island (and therefore, Love Island discourse) has dominated the summer. Not since Take Me Outas 2010s reign has a British reality dating show generated so much conversation, alternately heralded as the best thing on telly and condemned as the most controversial. As predictable as the fast fashion collaborations are the complaints, whether it be Tweeters drawing up petitions or viewers escalating their grumbles to Ofcom.
It goes without saying that Love Island, like any other reality show, is problematic. To date, the most complained about episode is from season four, when fan favourite Dani Dyer sobbed as she learned that the ex-girlfriend of her love interest Jack Fincham had joined the show. Ofcom received more than 2,500 complaints and the show was accused of aemotional manipulationa. And this week, after two years of forgoing the infamous postcard that caused such distress, it was brought back to spice up what has been a largely uneventful series. Producers showed images of castmate Teddy Soares kissing another woman during a challenge, despite spending most of his time in Casa Amor pining after Faye Winters. Watching Faye put her walls up once again, faced with the misrepresentation of his behaviour, was infuriating rather than entertaining.

The Portuguese was shown riding an iconic model of Vespa, known colloquially as ail Specialinoa. This version was rebranded as aSpecialonea.

- Decision on whether deal will happen expected in days
- Villa want to hold on to Grealish and have offered new deal
Manchester City have stepped up their pursuit of Jack Grealish by opening negotiations with Aston Villa. The England playmaker is a key target for City, along with Tottenhamas Harry Kane, and a decision on whether a deal can be struck is expected within days.
Villa are keen to hold on to Grealish and have offered the 25-year-old a new contract. They intend to stand firm and build their team around him but their resolve will be tested if Grealish tells his boyhood club he wants to leave and City come up with a satisfactory fee. The asking price would likely be at least APS100m.

The successful campaign to keep the Great Barrier Reef off Unescoas ain dangera list has been greeted with dismay a and gloom about the reefas chance of recovery. Graham Readfearn explains the fierce global effort to deny the impact of the climate crisis on a prized natural asset. This episode includes explicit language
The Great Barrier Reef is a habitat where global heating is not some far-off threat but a present-day catastrophe. Home to extraordinary biodiversity, it is about the size of Italy or Japan a and it has suffered three mass coral bleaching events since 2015, killing up to 50% of its shallow water coral, as a result of the climate crisis, with no reprieve from that process in sight.
That conclusion, supported by a wide scientific consensus, prompted a push to have Unesco, the UNas science and culture organisation, to add the reef to its ain dangera list. It would have been the first time a world heritage site had been placed on the list primarily because of the effects of global heating. But last week the 21-country World Heritage Committee ignored Unescoas scientific assessment and voted to reconsider the matter next year instead.

ITV is cancelling the TV talent show before it afizzles out with a whimpera. After a decade of plummeting ratings, we remember its highs, lows a| and Chico Time
aCOWELL WIELDS AXEa roared the front page of The Sun today, as it alleged that Simon Cowell, bored of gazing over a world made in his image, has chosen to cancel The X Factor once and for all after 17 years. The story quotes an insider, who says aSimon remains at the top of his game a| He owns the rights to the show, and itas his call a not ITVas a whether or not he drops it. Clearly the last thing he wants is for X Factor to fizzle out with a whimper and become a bit of a jokea.
About that last bit. If you wanted to produce a perfect scientific diagram of the concept of fizzling out, then it would probably look something like a graph of X Factor viewing figures over the years. After the showas biggest year in 2010, ratings went into freefall, steadily losing droves of eyeballs every time it returned. Whatas more, the show hasnat actually been on television since 2018. For all of todayas attempts to mimic an explosive aThe King Is Deada-style dramatic impact, the truth is that most people assumed it quietly passed away in its sleep several years ago.

To mark the release of a restored version of the classic melodrama Now, Voyager, here is the best of Hollywoodas queen of mean, from screwball romps to wild-eyed chillers
Bette Davis was on her final stretch in this Agatha Christie vehicle, with a gallery of A-listers phoning in a souped-up version of their existing screen personae. The scene is a 1930s paddle steamer chugging down the Nile, aboard which a wealthy heiress has been shot: Peter Ustinovas Hercule Poirot investigates and suspicion falls on a querulous American, Mrs Van Schuyler, played by Davis, who may have wanted to get her gnarled hands on the victimas pearl necklace.

With the bassistas death, one of rockas great partnerships a where raunch met ranch in absurdist but progressive American music a has come to an end
aC/ ZZ Top bassist Dusty Hill dies aged 72
Dusty Hill was evidently used to being mistaken for someone else. Well, for one other person. In 2012, backstage at a strange festival in Maryland, I watched as drunk twentysomethings walked up to a man with a vast beard, eyes hidden behind shades. aBilly!a they shouted. aBilly, can I get a photo with you?a But Dusty Hill clearly didnat like being mistaken for Billy Gibbons, who stood a few feet away from him on stage with ZZ Top for more than 50 years, and he walked away without a word.
Gibbons tended to be the focus of attention: he was the guitarist; he took most of the lead vocals; he was the bandas great and delightful eccentric. But Hill, who died in his sleep aged 72, was just as important. He sang lead or co-lead on several of ZZ Topas best loved songs a his high, true tenor a contrast to Gibbonsa radioactive growl a and his bass tone was every bit as crucial to their sound as Gibbonsa guitar. And, perhaps even more importantly, the pair came as a double act, not just by looking so similar they could be mistaken for one another but also in the perfect, minimalist choreography of their stage show (aLow energy, high impact,a as Hill described it to me, later that afternoon in Maryland).

Melvin Van Peebles and Perry Henzell made seminal 70s films a now their kids have recovered their fathersa would-be classics
Justine Henzell and Mario Van Peebles both know what itas like to grow up on movie sets as the child of a groundbreaking director. Henzell was six in 1972 when her father, Perry, finished The Harder They Come, Jamaicaas first full-length feature, starring the reggae legend Jimmy Cliff as a fugitive whose musical success coincides with his criminal notoriety. Van Peebles even starred in his father Melvinas third film, the 1971 underground hit Sweet Sweetbackas Baadasssss Song, which is credited with inspiring the Blaxploitation genre.
As adults, each of them has now had a hand in rescuing and restoring great movies by their fathers that might otherwise have been lost or neglected: Henzellas more ruminative second feature No Place Like Home, which was lost for more than 20 years, and Van Peeblesas stylish, Nouvelle Vague-tinged 1967 debut The Story of a Three-Day Pass, overlooked at the time and later overshadowed by the more incendiary Sweetback. Henzell laughs when I remark on her fatheras momentum in getting started on his second feature so quickly after the first. aHe may have had momentum but he had no money,a says the 55-year-old, the ocean lapping at the Saint Elizabeth, Jamaica, shoreline behind her. aThe film was shot in fits and starts as the cash came in. He was completely broke after The Harder They Come. Head been carrying those cans around the world himself trying to sell it. The film still hadnat repaid its investors and here he was making something even more experimental.a

To find out the true production cost of a garment is a tortuous process. Here is what you need to know to buy clothes with a clear conscience
What is the true cost of a Zara hoodie? In April 2019, David Hachfeld of the Swiss NGO Public Eye, along with a team of researchers and the Clean Clothes Campaign, attempted to find out. They chose to analyse a black, oversized top from Zaraas flagship Join Life sustainability line, which was printed with lyrics made famous by Aretha Franklin: aR-E-S-P-E-C-T: find out what it means to mea. It was an apt choice, because the idea was to work out whether any respect had been paid to the workers involved in the garmentas production, and how much of the hoodieas average retail price, a!26.66 (APS22.70), went into their pockets.
This was no simple assignment. It took several people six months, involved badgering Zaraas parent company, Inditex, over email, slowly getting limited information in return, and interviewing dozens of sources on the ground in Izmir, Turkey, where the garment was made. The researchers analysed financial results and trading data, and consulted with experts in pricing and production. It was, Hachfeld says on the phone, with dry understatement, aquite a huge projecta.

Looking at the high rate of infanticide in Senegal, it seems the main reasons for it are shame about pregnancy outside marriage and a loss of traditional support for young women.
