Over 500,000 adults in the UK rely on homecare workers to get them out of bed, wash them, brush their teeth, help them take their medication and much more. But homecare workers are worried. Councils are allowing care providers to cut corners and the elderly and disabled people that need homecare are not getting the support they should.
Watch and share our film, a satirical representation of the scandal of 15 minute visits.
Save Care Now is a UNISON campaign to raise the voices of homecare workers and improve the homecare sector. We are calling on councils to sign UNISON's Ethical Care Charter and Residential Care Charter, two sets of commitments that ensure the health, safety, and dignity of the UK's most vulnerable people.
We are asking people to email their councillor and ask them to use their influence to back UNISON's Care Charters.
Email your councillor now
The simplest way to make sure your council Saves Care Now is by asking them to sign up to UNISON's Ethical Care Charter - a set of committments that councils make which fix minimum standards to protect the dignity and quality of life for vulnerable people and the workers who care for them.

Mac OS X encoding: getting your DVD on
Getting DVD to your iPod couldn't be easier. I'm going to show you how to use a program called Handbrake that essentially does everything for you. First, you'll need to download a special build of Handbrake that supports the H.264 baseline profile. The link above is a forum thread in which there is discussion about the build. The build without the forum discussion is available too. It's inevitable that an official release of Handbrake will be released soon with built-in baseline profile support. You should also be aware that this build will no longer support anything except the baseline profile, so you might want to maintain two copies of Handbrake if you use it for other purposes.
Once you've got Handbrake installed, insert a DVD into your computer and launch the Application:
1. Once the application launches, it'll ask you whether or not you'd like to use a specific drive on your computer (it usually detects the correct one automatically) or a pre-ripped folder of VOB files on your computer.
2. Now you should be looking at at the application's interface. There are a few settings that need to be tweaked before you can start ripping:
2a. Under the "Destination" pane, change the value of the "Codecs" pulldown to "AVC/H.264 Video/AAC Audio"
2b. Under the "Audio" pane, change the value of "Bitrate" to "160" if you think you'll be needing some extra audio quality. Otherwise, you can leave it at 128.
2c. Under the "Video" pane, tick to "Average bitrate" radio button and change the text field to "700." Essentially anything under 768 Kbps will do here.
2d. Click the "Picture settings" button in the lower right-hand side of the window.
2e. Under "Size," click the down button on the "Width:" field until you reach 320. You might also want to tick the "Deinterlace picture" checkbox if your video source was originally taped on a camcorder or was taken from an older television broadcast. Click close when you're done
3. Click encode.
4. Go grab a cold beverage and surf your favorite website until it's done, because it will take a while.
Once it is finished, you can add the video file to your iTunes library and you should see that it now appears in the "Videos" section and plays as expected within iTunes itself.

How I Escaped Google's Supplemental HellBlog Post: April 23, 2007
"Most of us did make some mistakes that got us into supplemental"
Very true, sometimes due to ignorance, sometimes due to "all other sorts of evil things". Imho, its the stigma of the later that the ignorant/laid back (like myself) are concerned about when its pages suddenly fall into the supplemental area.
There is a reason to get there, oh yes - but what "the reason was" is perhaps something webmasters would find very useful to know more about. Its easier to act on something concrete than wander around and try to fix everything at the same time.
A Google Validator wouldn't be a bad idea (!)- it could turn a very grey area into something crystal clear. A validator would let webmasters know if their sites complied with G. guidelines or not - and therefore be in or out of the index. Supplemental index could then well disappear.
Hmm, I remember this article on Forbes... Maybe its just the odd me, but if my site ranks on top #1 for certain keywords and I can make business worth 3million dollars, the day I find my site in supplemental results, with no traffic/visitors/clients, therefore no revenue – I have a certain doubt that i will find being at supplemental a very good thing.
G. are taking themselves a little too serious, its not a new thing - and that is not really good. Google needs to be reminded that they "actually" didn't invent the internet and that they don't own it (at least, not yet).What G. does, is to make use of the internet (and yes, our websites) to do its own business, a big business. G. makes zillions of dollars on advertising in net of website resources, full stop.
We are talking about business; we are not talking about the new w3c (about google demands on affiliate link codes)
Another thing, Google apparently has many employees that like to do free PR for their employer. Good to hear that people are excited about who they work for – but unfortunately, not everyone is a born PR man. It's a bore to see & read this never ending net of contradictions, patches and most of all, opinions.
It just makes worse what was never good. G. has never been excellent publishing clear guidelines, explaining the way they do things… or I should say, the way they "want" things done (by the webmasters). There are a lot of documents out there, but they forgot to include a little meat in it.
Its about time that yahoo throws in a simple & clean search page ( & get rid of all the clutter they have today). I have the feeling they would attract get a lot more search queries than what they do today.
Give G. a cut on their air time – G. will stop being evil in no time ;)
All the best, Isabel
Thanks for your post Pete. Very interesting and useful. I will try some of your suggestions.
I have found myself in a similar situation - supplemental results are such a headache. Our site has been re-designed too quickly and sometimes not it the best manner (redundant descriptions, lack of attention to titles, no validation etc...), so now im spending a little time getting whats wrong, right.
Sometimes it feels like walking the desert (sometimes i wonder if changes will actually have any effect)....but the results show a positive impact.
I found also very interesting the mini discussion about cloack links - maybe you can start a discussion in this particular topic? To cloack links can be a usability issue...
All the best,
Online Poker - Too Competitive for White Hat SEO?Blog Post: February 18, 2007
I am running one of those sites (www.superrake.com). We started out last october. I have to say there are a lot of "tricks" around this affiliate business, and not all of them are nice to find out.
However, I also believe its possible to go clean and get good results. Like in any other business.
As of today I start to be pleased with the results i get on Yahoo (nevermind Google).
It definetly can be done & I am on my way there.
This industry is not worse than any other.....there are just a couple of guys too eager out there to make fast bucks.....and they mess up big time. its a pitty.
All the best,
Isabel da Palma
My Advice on Google Sitemaps - Verify, but Don't SubmitBlog Post: February 20, 2007
Rand, I read your blog and i got a chill.
Allow me to disagree with most of the people. To submit the sitemap to Google was one of the very worse things i have done in my short life as a site owner. Briefly, we just came from ranking at the top (in a few valuable keywords) down to the 300th place. How about that.
We run our business in a controversial area (gambling), however fan of white hat seo, i just found ourselves treated like black nasty spammers. I have been fuming since the begin of April, when I noticed the downhill.
At the end of the day, to rank at 30th or 300th is really irrelevant - if one doesn't place in the first 5 results, the website is just filling up space in the server.
I suspect to know why this happened; instead of re-submitting a sitemap for www.mysite.com i submitted a sitemap for mysite.com - tragic.
We enjoy a brilliant position at y!, msn and other smaller engines but it's a shame whatz going on.
We tried to get some feedback from google - but that's more difficult than getting an appointment with God himself. For a few days I have been posting on the webmaster groups at Google groups to get clued about what to do. The Google webmasters forum is the type of place where one should be prepared to get the site slaughtered, but after all the tests to possible black tricks (we follow white hat and only the white hat)….we got the advice to give up on the sitemap and improve wording on the page titles.
The sitemap was actually erased from the server after I realized this was only a beta implementation at Google.
Just a note to chil-uno. Using sitemap autodiscovery on robots.txt seems not be working very well for many people.
Thanks for your post - as usual, very interesting and useful.

07/08/18: Baystate Games lcm
by, July 8th, 2018 at 11:48 PM (2521 Views)
I was able to commit to driving down to Boston for day 2 of the Baystate Games, this year at Harvard University. It is a fun meet where the kids swim their finals championship heat before us old folks, with great swag too (t-shirt and cap for all, medals and one pullover jacket if you place). I was able to convince Greg to join me for a rare LCM swim in New England. Even though I am in VT, as a member of New England Masters I am eligible to compete.
A plus about this meet is that since the adults swim during the finals section of the meet, warmups started at 3pm and the first splash was at 4. For day 2 there were only 1-2 heats for Masters for most events, except for 3 heats of the 100 free. There is a limit of 4 events over the course of the meet, so I entered the first 4 today :duh: The age groups for the meet ar 19-34. 35-49, 50+.
200 Fly: 2:54.51
37.31, 44.16 (1:21.47), 47.81 (2:09.28), 45.23 (2:54.51)
- I felt good during the race although my 3rd 50 was a little too slow. I switched to DPS fly after the first 50 and stayed relaxed throughout.
36.90, 45.03 (1:21.93), 56.14 (2:18.07), 36.37 (2:54.44)
- I again felt good during this race. I have been trying to reinvent my breaststroke and despite still being slow I was able to get into a good rhythem.
200 Back: 2:42.26
39.23, 41.81 (1:21.04), 42.40 (2:03.44), 38.82 (2:42.26)
- I was looking forward to a solid swim and was able to throw one down. I am really happy with the splits. During warmups I did my best to count strokes so it helped me during this swim.
100 free: 1:04.84
32.66, 32.18 (1:04.84)
- At this point I was pretty tired and didn't have a lot of speed off the blocks, but I was able to build into the walls and then did my best to hammer the rest of the swim.
All in all a great meet. After the Masters heats they had a small awards ceremony for all age groups, so there was a little break between swims. The diving well was open for swimming during the duration of the meet so I warmed down there. I was done with all of my events in less than two hours.
This ended my third LCM meet. I have been swimming at Harvard for many years but all scy, so it was a real treat to finally swim here LCM. Here in VT there is only one LCM pool but it is two hours north in Middlebury, and sometimes I can sneak in to the pool at a college less than an hour away. It would be cool if I had more opportunities to swim lCM, but it is what it is in New England.

Driskill is the team's top tackler this season and was an All-OAC and Academic All-OAC selection last year.
PURPLE RAIDERS IN THE PROs
Wide receiver Pierre Garcon was a sixth round draft pick in 2008 and is in his fourth season as a member of the Indianapolis Colts. Cecil Shorts III was a fourth round pick this past spring and is in his rookie season with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Two Raiders in the NFL coaching ranks are Dom Capers, the defensive coordinator of Green Bay Packers and Nick Sirianni as the offensive quality control coach of the Kansas City Chiefs.
Mount Union replaced its 10-year old AstroPlay surface with a new FieldTurf playing surface this past summer. Fans will notice that the football and soccer lines are permanent with two tones of alternating green and black end zones. The black also carries over to new Nike home purple jerseys that the Raiders will wear this season. Mount Union's newest teams -- men's and women's lacrosse will start varsity play in the spring of 2013 and their lines will be painted onto the field. New turf was put in the South end zone which moved the students and band to the North end leading to Mount Union warming up on North side and entering the stadium from the Northwest corner of stadium.

This stretch of rolling dairy country has long been Milton Hershey's turf, where he first found success making chocolate more than a century ago and earned a name synonymous with chocolate in America.
But M&M-making rival Mars has crept up on Hershey's dominance of U.S. chocolate buyers. And now, Mars has delivered a chocolate-coated slap in the face, setting up shop in south-central Pennsylvania, just 10 miles from Hershey's flagship factory on Chocolate Avenue.
The $70 million "Dove Chocolate Center of Excellence" is the latest sign that the spotlight-shy Mars is breaking out of its shell as it tries to pound cracks into the long-held notion that Hershey is the real American chocolate company.
While Mars makes its surprisingly sharp-tongued attack, Hershey has struggled to cut costs by closing U.S. plants and blending cocoa butter substitutes into some of its chocolate candy — a step that has riled candy enthusiasts who say it dulls the flavor and feel of pure chocolate.
At the unveiling of its newly expanded Dove factory in late September, Mars Snackfood U.S. president Todd Lachman said — without naming Hershey — that cost-cutting competitors are "tricking" consumers with substitutes and outsourcing American jobs.
"The consumer is our compass, and we will always deliver 100 percent real, authentic chocolate products that have been manufactured here in the United States," Lachman said.
Hershey is closing plants
Mars also has pivoted its PR messages to chide its rival: Its premium brand Dove is "Made in the USA" and Mars can be trusted "to provide pure, rich chocolate," it says. And Mars is making its case just as it's leapfrogging Hershey as America's largest candymaker, with its $23 billion purchase of mint and chewing-gum giant Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co.
Meanwhile, Hershey is closing six plants — three in Canada and one each in California, Connecticut and Pennsylvania — in a move to cut costs and compete in faster-growing and cheaper regions. All told, Hershey is cutting about 3,000 U.S. jobs and expanding its operations in Mexico, India, China and Brazil.
While Mars will still lag Hershey's prized top spot in the U.S. chocolate market — which totals $16 billion — analysts agree that Hershey is facing a serious challenge.
Together, Hershey and Mars control better than two-thirds of the U.S. chocolate market, the world's largest. But Hershey's edge — currently about 42.5 percent to Mars' 30 percent, according to IRI/Neilsen data provided to Hershey — has slipped several percentage points in the last couple years as Mars has outmarketed and outmaneuvered Hershey, analysts say.
"I think that Mars sees a weakness and anyone who can get ahead in this economy is going to get ahead, even the secretive Mars," said Marcia Mogelonsky, a senior analyst with Chicago-based market research firm Mintel International Group Ltd.
Hershey defended itself by saying its plant closings are part of broader changes to ensure its long-term competitiveness. The company also said consumer taste-testers approved of the substitutes for cocoa butter, such as sunflower oil and palm oil. In Mr. Goodbar, for instance, the change lets the peanut flavor shine through, Hershey spokesman Kirk Saville said.
Besides, Hershey maintains that 85 percent of its chocolate lineup is pure, including popular items like Hershey's bars, Kisses and Reese's peanut butter cups. Even with a cocoa butter substitute, a Mr. Goodbar has more chocolate by percentage weight than Mars' Snickers bar, Saville said, and a Krackel has more than a Mars-made Three Musketeers.
"Hershey is chocolate," Saville said. "We've made the world's best chocolate for more than 100 years."
'Chocolate' candy
Hershey would not provide a list of the products in which it uses a substitute. But under the federal government's rules for food standards, Hershey cannot call those products "chocolate," and a keen eye can scan the packaging and ingredients list and figure it out, candy bar by candy bar.
On the packaging, Hershey dances around the term — Whatchamacallit has a "chocolatey coating," Mr. Goodbar is "made with chocolate" and Kissables are "chocolate candy."
And sometimes ingredients speak for themselves: Products with the substitutes don't taste fresh and vibrant, said Cybele May of Los Angeles, who reviews sweets at http://www.candyblog.net.
"The wonderful thing about cocoa butter is that it melts in your mouth," May said. "Oils replicate that behavior, but they never get it right."
Given health scares and concerns about food quality — Chinese milk anyone? — it can be an effective marketing tactic for Mars to cast doubt on its rival's product, said Jean-Pierre Dube, a marketing professor at the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business. And with both companies strapped by the skyrocketing cost of commodities such as cocoa and milk, Mars' knocks on Hershey's quality might persuade consumers to pay a higher price for a Mars product, Dube said.
Whether Mars' criticism is fair is another question.
Hershey is not alone in using chocolate substitutes: Mars does it in countries where the rules are different. Other candymakers, including Nestle, do not use real chocolate in some of their U.S. candy.
And Mars is doing its own cost-cutting — by slimming down some of its package sizes.
Fair or not, Laurel Haring's mind is made up.
Once a daily devotee to Hershey's Kissables, Haring noticed this year that the candies had stopped tasting like, well, chocolate.
"It wasn't creamy, it wasn't sweet, it wasn't milky," said Haring, 47. "It was just nasty."
Haring's husband prowled drugstores and grocery stores near their home in Wilmington, Del., in search of the good Kissables, and came up empty. She even contacted Hershey to tell them something was wrong — and got coupons instead of an explanation.
A few weeks ago, she stumbled onto an online news item about Hershey's use of substitutes — it featured an image of Kissables — but by then she had moved on.

Starting at the colonial-era Clock Tower and stretching all the way to Hung Hom, a stroll along the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade takes one past the Avenue of Stars, the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and the Hong Kong Space Museum. But like most of the love birds and shutterbugs on the promenade, your gaze will be drawn south to the dramatic topographical and architectural spectacle that is the Hong Kong Island skyline towering over the busy waters of Victoria Harbour.
- MTR East Tsim Sha Tsui Station, Exit L6, take the subway (pedestrian tunnel) to the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Turn right and walk straight ahead towards the waterfront; or Tsim Sha Tsui Station, Exit E. Walk towards Salisbury Road then turn right, take subway (pedestrian tunnel) next to YWCA to Hong Kong Cultural Centre, then walk to the Star Ferry Pier; or
- Star Ferry from Central or Wan Chai. The promenade is next to the Star Ferry Pier in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Facebook (Nasdaq:FB) launches mandatory video ads. That's olde school television. you know when your watching a reasonably interesting show and suddenly these ads come on. Madison Ave Madmen call that Interruption Marketing. similar to tele-marketing which has annoyed tens of millions.
So where is the promise of social marketing. You know engaging the follower with relevant compelling offerings which have a high sell through rate. This is like watching the Swedish Bikini cheerleading team during a commercial break exhorting you to drink a particular beer while you are ignoring your girlfriend as you watch a very important football game. Very important to be emphasized.
Facebook will become no more powerful than network TV. Which right now is not very powerful at all.

In Wild Tales, Graham Nash doesn't waste time in getting to the big bang event most readers will be eager to hear about: His first encounter with David Crosby and Stephen Stills. After that opening chapter, Nash travels back to his childhood to begin this entertaining autobiography. It's not a journey delivered in strict chronological order; he sometimes follows a narrative thread over the course of a few years before slipping back again to pick up another tale. Nash employs an easy-going writing style that places the reader on a bar stool beside him, most likely in an English pub. It's a buddy-to-buddy account, with a fair amount of nudge-nudge, wink-wink material.
Nash must have known that at least some of his recollections would cast him in an unfavorable light. After all, he spent a good portion of his musical career chasing mini-skirts and consuming (although never becoming addicted to) illegal drugs. He doesn't excuse or condemn this past behavior; Wild Tales is filled with let-the-chips-fall-where-they-may observations of an era of free love and mind-altering experimentation. As he simply states in the Acknowledgments, "This is how I remember it." Later in the book, he notes the disastrous effect that too much cocaine use had on the ability of Crosby, Stills and Nash to record or perform music. He also settles down with Susan Sennett, who becomes the love of his life.
Throughout Wild Tales, Nash's core values come across loud and clear; his obsession with harmony singing, his devotion to friends, his strong bond with his parents, and a passion for social justice. Like George Harrison and John Lennon, he became one of the pioneers of using music to reach out to others in need, whether it be in the form of writing a new song, or putting together benefit concerts.
