How do we make sure you get the best help possible through MeckCARES?
MeckCARES involves changes in the services and supports families receive. It is important to the community that these changes are helpful to your child and your family. To make sure that you and all families get the help they need, the program is being carefully evaluated.
The program evaluation for MeckCARES has 2 major parts:
Process Evaluation:
The process evaluation looks at how well the wraparound (child and family) teams are working to help families. At the end of each Child and Family Team meeting, all team members are asked to complete a brief questionnaire in which they say how well that team meeting worked. Trained observers will also come to your team meetings to observe the meetings. Observing team meetings and having team members report their views can help us see if team leaders or facilitators need more training, or teams need more support. We want to make sure the team is working well to help your family.
Outcomes Evaluation:
When you enroll in MeckCARES, you are asked if you want to learn about the "national evaluation". This study tracks how youth in MeckCARES are improving. When you enroll, and every 6 months thereafter, trained interviewers will ask you questions about how your child and family are doing and what services you have received. We will also ask your child how s/he is doing. Because your time is valuable, we will reimburse you and your child for the time you take to answer these questions. In this and all aspects of the evaluation, your participation is voluntary.
Your answers to the evaluation remain confidential, and you will be given regular feedback about how your child and family are doing. You can then decide if you are making the progress you need, or if changes in your family's plan need to take place.
What happens to the information I provide for the program evaluation?
Information about your Child and Family Team is given back to the team, so you can compare your team to other MeckCARES teams, and to see if your team is becoming better able to support your family. Based on this information, you and your team can then decide if changes are needed. Information collected about Child and Family Teams is then combined, protecting the identity of each family, and reported to community support agencies and the MeckCARES governing board to help make sure that they provide any support that teams need.
Information from the many families in MeckCARES is also combined to help the community see how well MeckCARES is helping families. This information will be used to increase support for families, and identify the help that is most useful to families. In addition, information about MeckCARES families is combined with information from other communities around the country, to see how well these types of programs are working. This information does not identify you in any way.
Who conducts the MeckCARES program evaluation?
Drs. Jim Cook and Ryan Kilmer from UNC Charlotte have been working with systems of care for several years. They have been contracted to evaluate MeckCARES, and Interviewers and observers are university students working for them.
If you have any questions, please contact Dr. Jim Cook at 704-687-4758.

Interesting Facts about Nancy Henning
Meaning of Last Name
The name Henning is indigenous to the North German areas Mecklenburg, Hannover, Hamburg, Holstein and Pommern. Especially the towns Stralsund and Greifswald, in Mecklenburg, near the Baltic Sea is well known as places where the name originated. Both towns formed part of Denmark up until the Thirty Years' War (1618 — 1648). Between the years 1300 and 1500 the name HENNING was used as a popular nickname for "the Son of John (Johannes)". In the old Baltic dialect a rooster was called a "Hen" (hen = male, henne = female). The Baltic (or North German) "ing" was added to indicate that it was a name deduced from the name of a father or ancestor. The name originated amongst noblemen and knights, such as: * Henning = Johannes Older, who lived during 1290 in the vicinity of Stralsund; * Henning = Johannes Brunswick, who lived during 1305 at Kolberg. Today Kolberg is in Poland, but during 1305 it formed part of the country which is known today as Germany. * Henning = Johannes Dotenberg (Knight) who lived during 1326 in the vicinity of Greiffswald. It is suspected that he was a descendant of Johannes Older. * Earl Henning of Irkesleve who lived during 1330 in Haldslohe. During the 13/14th centuries the descendants of these first Hennings spread over the areas today known as Germany, Denmark and Norway. All records from this time unfortunately were destroyed. During the 17th and 18th Centuries several Hennings moved elsewhere — also to the new world. Today we find one of the biggest Henning clans in South Africa. However, we find Henning families in almost every civilised country in the Western world. A few Henning descendants, however, remained in the vicinity of Stralsund and Greifswald. It is known that Jacob Henning (the old) was born during 1635 at Demmin (near Greifswald). Jacob Henning and his descendants became known as the Henning Family of Karnin. Karnin is approximately 25 km from Stralsund. Jacob Henning and his descendants were big and wealthy property owners, who lived in a castle. This castle was confiscated during 1945, during the Second World War, by the communist government who took over Eastern Germany. Consequently this family spread over Western Germany.

Cardiovascular Institute
Women Take Heart
West Penn Allegheny Health System Offers Unique Array of Cardiovascular Services for Women
It was 14 years ago when Mary Ann Hirt first began to experience problems with her heart. "Out of the blue, my heart started to pound so fast and erratically that I thought I was going to die," she recalls. "I managed to call 911 as I was collapsing and was rushed to the hospital."
Mary Ann soon learned that she had atrial fibrillation—an abnormal heart rhythm that is potentially life threatening. "I was taken back when I got the diagnosis," she said. "To my knowledge, there wasn't any history of heart disease in my family. I didn't think this could happen to me."
Like Mary Ann, millions of other women are not aware they are at risk for developing a heart attack, stroke or other cardiovascular diseases. But the facts tell a different story. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in American women, killing almost twice as many women than all forms of cancer combined.
"Women experience heart disease differently than men," said Indu Poornima, MD, a cardiologist at Allegheny General Hospital and medical director for the Women's Heart Center at West Penn Allegheny Health System's Cardiovascular Institute. "The symptoms are often different and women are more inclined to dismiss symptoms when they arise."
Mary Ann didn't think her irregular heartbeat was a problem until she recently experienced several more frightening episodes. She decided to be more proactive about her heart health. "I wanted to take action to prevent this problem from occurring again," said Mary Ann. "I learned that the Women's Heart Center offers a unique range of services tailored to meet my needs."
The Women's Heart Center is a resource for women unlike any other in the Pittsburgh area. Women can access an array of gender-specific preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic services at a variety of conveniently located sites. A team of experienced cardiovascular specialists provide women with a wide range of services that address specific heart-related issues women encounter throughout their entire lifespan.
"There are many risk factors for cardiovascular disease than can increase a woman's chance of developing a heart attack or stroke," said Dr. Poornima. "For instance, smoking, high blood pressure, cholesterol, obesity and a family history of heart disease can put a woman at risk for cardiovascular disease. Also, women who are taking contraceptives, experiencing pregnancy, or going through menopause can develop heart problems. At the Women's Heart Center, our expert team of women's heart care experts is ready to meet all of these unique needs."
The AGH McCandless Building, located at 9335 McKnight Road in Pittsburgh's North Hills, serves as the flagship site for the Women's Heart Center. Women visiting this facility have the opportunity to undergo a comprehensive cardiovascular disease risk assessment that helps doctors develop an individualized prevention and treatment plan. Advanced non-invasive cardiovascular diagnostic capabilities include echocardiography, nuclear stress testing, treadmill stress testing and holter monitoring.
Other diagnostic and women's health services offered at the AGH McCandless Building include laboratory testing, mammography, bone densitometry, gynecology and endocrinology. In addition, the center provides a complete range of services to promote healthy lifestyle changes, such as dietary and exercise counseling, smoking cessation, cholesterol management, diabetes education, blood pressure monitoring, stress management and hormone replacement guidance.
If more advanced treatment is necessary, patients can be referred to subspecialists at Allegheny General Hospital or Forbes Regional Hospital. Consultations are also offered at the Outpatient Care Center in Peters Township.
Today, Mary Ann is enjoying a healthy and active life. "I feel great and don't have any limitations," says Mary Ann, who is a nurse at Allegheny General Hospital and a volunteer at the Western Pennsylvania Humane Society. She adds that it's important for women to seek medical care at the first sign of a medical problem and even earlier, during regular check-ups. "Many women make the mistake of downplaying their medical symptoms. They think the symptoms will pass. But hundreds of thousands of women die each year because they didn't take action in time. Women need to pay closer attention to their health."
Dr. Poornima agrees that it's important for more women to be more aware of their heart health. "Unfortunately, many women dismiss heart disease as an older man's disease," she said. "They don't know they are equally at risk. As a way to dispel common myths about heart disease, the American Heart Association sponsors the 'Go Red for Women' initiative each year. Millions of women, as well as men, are wearing red on National Red Day to create greater awareness of heart disease. Mary Ann is living proof that early diagnosis and treatment saves lives. We hope that more women also take a proactive approach to keeping their hearts healthy."

I am replacing a Price Pfister Shower surround handle. I believe it is an Avante, I am replacing with an Avalon. Ihave spoken with Price Pfister and their plumbers. It appears that in 1988 the contractor installed a white plastic sleeve as an adapter at the time to fit PP old retaining sleeve (1 1/8 inch). They discontinued that sleeve, and now only carry and distribute the 1 inch sleeve with all models. They recommended that I remove the old white plastic adapter (that slips on over the valve), the problem is that the screws to do so are behind the fiberglass shower stall. I would like to avoid cutting the shower stall or hiring someone to do this work. My question is:
Does anyone make a 1 1/8 inch polished crome retainer sleeve that I could use. Since it is just a sleeve, and polished crome is a popular finish, I don't care about mixing brands on just the sleeve. I am assuming that maybe another company or even generic one would work since everything else from the Avalon kit works great, just need a retaining sleeve to fit this old plastic piece on the outside of the valve. Thank you so much.

"Come rain or shine; keep your Animated Weather Widget"
Reviewed by Peter Warrior / Jun 20, 2011
A 4x2 weather widget with custom backgrounds usable worldwide.
This is an adequate and well-presented weather widget, with a handful of nice options to customize it. It has been created by Mobilityflow Arts, a developer who has specialized in this only app and its add-ons.
The first thing that catches our eye is the introductory animation and the spectacular user interface. It can slow down certain old Android devices, but it's pleasing to the eye. The strongest points of this app are its animated daily weather forecast and its range of locations worldwide available. Moreover, there's a wide range of customizable settings to adjust its appearance to fit in our desktop. About its accuracy, that's another story. However, there aren't too many weather apps that can brag about it.
In short, an excellent app from an aesthetic point of view, but where its use is concerned, i.e., identify and predict the weather, its competitors are well ahead. This paid version is ad-free, of course.
Unistall Free and Install Pro version.
Digital Clock widget 4x2 with Weather forecast application. The exquisitely realistic video effects of cloudiness, rain and snow provide the vivid sensation of current or future weather conditions for more than 50000 locations over the world.
Different size widgets with a clock and a forecast for the selected day.
- Desktop widgets with digital clock
- Animated daily weather forecast

- Multiple scene landacapes
- Custom (user-defined) backgrounds

Doesn't do much....
!!!!! Great
Like a dope I bought the pro version thinking it would allow me to load one of my pictures in custom mode. Nope. Pictures still won't load in custom. Sent an email and apparently the email link is incorrect or not receiving emails. Live and learn. Ruine
I am not satisfied with the provided information
Long time user of this app. Had it on wimo too. Why are there no updates? Where are the features that have been in development forever now?

Christmas gift ideas for men are no longer simply a bottle of cologne or a tie. Long ago there weren't many items mass marketed for men but those days are far behind us.
If you are looking for Christmas gift ideas for a man who is very important to you, you will want to make sure that you find items which he will appreciate and enjoy for a long time. Remember your budget when you begin your search so you don't over-extend yourself or your bank account.
As you begin the gifting process you will want to think of the things that are most important to him. Is he a workaholic? Does he love the outdoors? Is he a golf enthusiast? Or is he a sports nut? Those are all great starting points for figuring out the best Christmas gift ideas for men.
If you do happen to love a workaholic, try to give him items which will help him on a daily basis. He may need a new PDA or if he has one, consider accessories which will help him network his PDA with his other electronic devices so he can streamline his operations. Consider getting him an all in one phone with a built in PDA, camera, video device and GPS. That way, he only needs to manage one device instead of three or four. Convenience is a must for this man and anything to make time management will take him a long way.
Loving an outdoorsman can mean sacrificing weekends together. Try not to take it personally or get your feelings hurt if you are not the outdoorsy type and he doesn't ask you to go along. He wants to do something he loves and doesn't want to burden you with something he knows you don't love. You can still encourage his hobby by giving him Christmas gifts which enhance his time outdoors. New hiking boots or a new set of oars for his kayak may be just the thing he has been hoping for. If you aren't sure what he needs, you can always get him a gift basket filled with items geared toward the outdoorsman.
Golfers or sportsmen can be among the easiest for whom to buy gift items. If you can figure out his favorite sports you can find something which will be in keeping with that theme. Great Christmas gift ideas for men who love sports can be anything from sporting equipment to balls to clothing items relating to the sport. Jerseys, hats and warm-up suits with a man's favorite team are awesome gifts and he will certainly appreciate your giving them to him.
Just keep your man's interests in mind when you are shopping for the right gift for him. Christmas gift ideas don't have to keep you confused.

Gorman forced the Reed offense into a one-dimensional attack. Reed's ground game had accounted for 1,100 yards in its last five outings, but could not get going against Gorman's monstrous defensive front. Reed finished with 95 rushing yards on 33 attempts but most of those came late. At halftime Reed had rushed 13 times for 14 yards.
The Bishop Gorman defense limited Reed's all-North running back Jordan de Leon to 16 yards on 13 carries. Additionally, Reed QB Chris Denn has been a stellar secondary rushing weapon for Reed but he managed only 27 yards on eight rushes.
" They (the Gaels' defensive front) were as advertised," Reed coach Ernie Howren said. "They were as big and strong up front as we've seen all year and you have to credit Gorman's coaching staff. They did some things we hadn't seen on film. Schematically, they changed some things and did a great job of making adjustments."
Stopping the run was nothing new for Gorman.
"That's just kind of the forte of our defense," said Gaels coach Tony Sanchez, who watched his team win a fifth-straight Nevada large-school state championship. "The one thing we've been able to do all year is we've been able to stop the run. Our guys are pretty stout and they do a real good job up front ... That was huge. When you shut someone down and they become one-dimensional, it becomes very difficult."
Gorman had control at the half leading 21-7, but grabbed the momentum and ran away during a stretch of less than two minutes midway through the third period. The Gaels put the game out of reach when they posted three touchdowns in a span of less than 1:40.
BG quarterback Randall Cunningham got to the corner and bolted 29 yards up the sideline for a Gaels score that left the state power on top 28-7 at the 7:05 mark of the third quarter.
Reed got the ball back, but Gorman defensive back Daniel Stewart pulled down a tipped pass and ran 28 yards untouched for a touchdown on an interception return and a 34-7 Gaels lead.
A quick three-and-out gave the ball right back to Bishop Gorman and and the Gaels wasted no time building on their lead. Cunningham connected with Riley Hoff for a 27-yard pass-and-catch scoring combination on the Gaels' first play following a Reed punt.
The sequence of three quick scores left Bishop Gorman holding a 41-7 lead at the 5:34 mark of the third quarter and it was never threatened.
"You have to be able to play good, error-free football," Howren said. "You have to be able to convert and execute to be successful against a team like them. That was the story for us, missed opportunities, which put us behind ... It's just disappointing we didn't play better."
Cunningham was a productivity machine for the Gaels. The Gorman signal caller and son of former NFL All-Pro QB, Randall Cunningham Sr., torched the Reed defense. He ran for 213 yards and four touchdowns on 22 carries. He also completed 9-of-11passes for 111 more yards through the air.
"Most of that was designed reads," Cunningham said. "Our offensive line did a good job, like it has all year, getting a good push ... Reed played hard and they are physical. They're a good team and this was a good win for us."
Reed posted its only touchdown after halftime in the waning seconds of the third quarter. Raiders senior receiver Jake Lehmann left his feet to snag a 4-yard touchdown catch from Denn. Lehmann and Denn also connected on a 65-yard reception earlier in the drive to set up the touchdown.
"Coach Howren does a fantastic job," Sanchez said. "It's tough to defend what they do ... They did a great job of sticking to their game plan and then they hit some big balls. They hit two really big passes."
Gorman posted a meaningless touchdown on an 11-yard TD run by Cunningham with 7:41 left in the postseason affair to account for the final score.
Reed was forced to stare at the 21-7 halftime deficit after it missed on some key early opportunities.
Reed's defense responded by forcing a Gaels punt. Unfortunately, the RHS offense made a costly mistake. Denn threw an interception over the middle that set Gorman up at the Reed 35. Five plays later, Stewart got over the goal line from a yard out and the private Las Vegas Catholic school had a 21-7 advantage with 1:27 remaining before the break.
"I thought we played a little bit like we were on a roller-coaster ride," Howren said. "At times, we played well and times we made some critical mistakes that you can't make against a team the caliber of Gorman."
The Raiders got on the scoreboard first. Trae Wells caught an 8-yard touchdown pass on a short slant as Reed cashed in for a score on its opening drive. Wells also pulled in the pigskin on a go route down the sideline that turned into a 68-yard gain to the BGHS 8.
"That was a great start for us," Wells said. "That was a huge way to get going. It's just too bad we couldn't capitalize on it."
Wells finished with six catches for 112 receiving yards. Denn was 14-of-24 passing for 197 yards to go along with two passing TDs and the two interceptions.
"Their defense was fast," Denn said. "They filled the gaps. We did everything we could do and sometimes it's just not there."
Unfortunately for Reed, Bishop Gorman answered on its next drive, marching 70 yards on 11 plays. The drive was capped by a 12-yard Cunningham scamper that knotted the game at 7-7.
Reed went three and out on the next possession and the Gaels' offense went right back to work. Thanks to a short wind-hindered punt. Bishop Gorman took over at the Reed 44 and needed only seven plays to find the end zone again, this time on a 22-yard Cunningham scoring scramble.
Reed wraps up its season with a 12-2 record and its second state runner-up finish in three years.
"I really do feel like this was an awesome season," Howren said. "The kids did so many good things. And yet, I still feel like our program can get better."

Good morning, all, from West Windsor, NJ...the home of surprise silver medalist in the 100-meter breaststroke Rebecca Soni. Congrats, Rebecca...the Garden State is proud of you!
Rebecca is in the demographic that is of particular interest to NBC at these Olympics. According to the A.C. Nielsen Co. the median prime-time viewing age for the Summer Games has been creeping upward: from 38.7 in Barcelona in '92, to 42.1 in Atlanta in '96, the 45.3 in Sydney in 2000, to 47.1 in Athens in '04. This suggests that mostly the same people have been watching (and all the while not getting any younger). That's why, to attract a younger audience, the Olympics have added new events such as BMX.
And at least in the early going in these Games the 18-34 demo has been showing up. NBC's president of research, Alan Wurtzel, told the Sports Business Daily that through the first two nights of coverage, viewing by the 18-34s has been running 22% ahead of the Athens numbers and 14% higher than Sydney's. I'd love to hear from you 18-34s. Are you, in fact, watching more of the Games this time around? If so, why?
P.S. Speaking of numbers, NBC on Sunday night averaged a 17.9 rating and a 31 audience share, up 21% from Athens.

With all the key ingredients required to dish up a feast of football, this weekend's derby action promises to be a treat.
First up will be Saturday's tantalising Soweto derby date between Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates at the FNB Stadium.
Considered one of the most fiercely contested matches in African football, the much-anticipated fixture was first played on January 24, 1970.
Since then there has been 53 other encounters in the Premier Soccer League (PSL) era alone, Chiefs edging their bitter rivals 22 to 12 in the overall winning stakes, with the remaining 19 having ended in draws.
Pirates, however, claimed recent bragging rights when they beat their neighbouring foes in March to retain the Carling Black Label Cup trophy.
Saturday's clash also couldn't be more influential on the 2012/13 campaign, with Amakhosi heading into the tie top of the PSL table with 30 points.
Stuart Baxter's side have been in sensational form in the PSL this term, winning nine of their 13 matches played, with one loss, as they desperately look to end a four-year wait to once again achieve title glory.
It has also been two years since any real silverware has graced the cabinet at Naturana, much to Chiefs' faithful fans' dismay.
Meanwhile, the Sea Robbers have sailed the high seas, their escapades last term having ended in a historic back-to-back treble-winning voyage.
The Buccaneers currently trail the Glamour Boys by just three points, with Roger de Sa's men hell-bent on pulling level as they set their sights on a third successive league-winning season.
Over in England it's much the same, as Sunday's mouth-watering Manchester derby in Eastlands could potentially have a telling effect on the fate of the Premier League crown.
City, who pipped United last term to claim their first title in 44 years, head into the weekend's clash also only three points adrift of their rivals at the summit.
An once almost-guaranteed victory for the Red Devils - they've won 60 of the 75 times the two sides have met since 1881 - has taken on a radical turn since an Abu Dhabi-based investment group's cash injection at the Etihad Stadium in 2008.
However, the star-studded Citizens have looked a shadow of the all-conquering outfit from a season's past as they battle to dominate domestic opposition.
Their failure to once again progress to the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League has also seen Roberto Mancini's management questioned.
This, amid speculation former Barcelona supremo Pep Guardiola is poised to swoop in and replace the Italian tactician.
The Red Devils, on the otherhand, have steadily climbed to the top of the pile in the English top-flight this term, as well as having easily qualified for the knock-out stages in Europe.
Sir Alex Ferguson's troops have, for the most part, been ruthless on attack, but worryingly shaky at the back, the 19-time English champions having regularly had to come from behind to rescue a match after leaking an early goal.
But coupled with last term's demoralising 6-1 defeat at Old Trafford, and having to watch on trophyless as the "noisy neighbours" stole the limelight, United's fiery desire to exact some revenge will definitely be flaming bright.
So, whether you'll be parading your skull-and-crossbones with the Ghost at Soccer City, or straining your voice-box to drown out the chants of "the Boys in Blue will never give in", remember to savour the sweet taste of derby satisfaction.

Greenfield's newest best hidden treasure!! First off it was a pleasant surprise to see how beautiful the inside was.. It has a newly remodeled bar area and an amazing dance floor, we asked about live entertainment and the manager said that Friday nights they have a trio but that they would be adding other music acts down the line.. Secondly my wife and I were impressed with how friendly the staff was we felt like we were the most important customers there.. Also we asked our server (marge) what she recommended and she said the Pollo Tepic was the house speciality.. So both of us ordered it can we give Los Mariachis a 10 the flavor was out of this world it almost had a taste of Asiana Cuisine mixed in with Mexican flavor... we were so impressed with this single dish that we are planning our son's graduation here.. Not only is the food phenomenal the service was outstanding and it has a dance floor that's itchin to be used.. This place gets two thumbs up..
I thought they got new management. Service seems to have gotten worse. Their personnel lacks customer service, personality and social skills. Their food is not authentic. Drinks are not good and they are expensive. If you are looking for authentic food in a positive atmosphere and friendly service try El Canaveral or El Senorial.
Poor Service, Mediocre Food, Overcharged Debit Card – Paired with an ambiance reminiscent of a ghost town, the aloofness of the staff made eating here a less than welcoming experience.
Overall, customer service was nonexistent, the odor of natural gas permeated the dining area, I couldn't identify whether my chimichanga was shredded beef or chicken, and they provided a quarter-sized dollop of sour cream as a side -- with a $1 charge for any substitutions to the "side dishes." The salsa inexplicably had a strong oregano taste, much like canned pizza sauce.
In another "what were they thinking?" development, the travel channel's "Bizarre Foods" was playing on a wall-mounted TV in the dining area. I can think of few things less appetizing than watching someone eat something slimy and green while you're trying to have lunch.
To top it off, when the meal charge showed up on my debit card later, it was several dollars higher than the price on the receipt. I think I left the tip line blank (I left a small cash tip on the table), which was probably my own fault, but apparently they decided to write in their own amount -- upwards of 30%!
Needless to say, I will not be returning. I should have just gone to Qdoba.
Poor service, burnt food! – Poor service and my food was burnt - No apologies. I took two friends there, my fajitas came out burnt, and the waitress, who was a young girl never once apologized. I ended up watching my friends eat, as by the time my food would have been remade, my friends would have their food done. Even poor service on the way out when I paid my bill, I was asked how everything was and I said how my food was burnt and the young girl never said I am sorry or commented. Never an apology from anyone there!! Poor food, poorer service, tacky decorations, I would recommend to stay away!!!
The best Salsa I've ever had – I am a huge salsa fanatic! They have been my favorite restaurant for the past 9 1/2 years. I would recommend the Mariachi's Especial, huge portions for the right price. The atmosphere is very authentic as well. A definite must check out!
Uncooked Food – Ate at this restaurant and my wife had tacos with uncooked beef in them. When this was brought to the attention of the wait staff they gave us our check (with no adjustment for the meal). There was no manager on staff so we paid and left. We called back later and their was still no manager there. Very poor quality food and service.
gritas at los – Always get seated promptly and get our food promptly. Love the fajitas. Atmosphere Denny's like, but okay for a weeknight, great for a group. Carryout a good deal, too.
Excellent food & service – No matter what time of day you go to Los Mariachi's (lunch or dinner), the food and service are both excellent! You also receive nice portion sizes at a reasonable price. You have to try their beef and cheese nachos for an appetizer (they also have chicken and cheese)!

I spoke at a recent musicians social media and SEO training event in Hollywood, California.
I covered Search Engine Optimization and the importance of planning SEO Strategies for Musicians, Artists, Bands and more. I also spoke briefly about social media and the importance of content and sharing – so that you can build authority and trust (high quality links) in search and user's eyes. The dynamic Loren Weisman covered the Social Media details of the music business, and the amazing dynamic duo of Scott Page and Morgan Carson broke it down into several, live "makeovers". Attendees clearly understood that the power of online success is more than doubled when using both SEO (search engine optimization) and social media – and solid planning. We also gave away my new book: "The Ultimate Guide To Optimizing Your Website" to 5 lucky attendees.
For SEO – here are the top 3 things you need to know:
These are top concerns to address for SEO, but you must apply this to the sequence of "search intent". (Also called 'buyers cycle'). You can see the entire presentation below – the "SEO for Musicians and Artists" with Jon Rognerud
The biggest take-way from the audience? Many questions – but the common theme was around a) learning, b) mentoring, c) time management.

Warning: This is in relation to social media communication, connection and lead generation. So, before you quickly scan this post please know that the foundations for the online social platforms must be understood first. (Huffington Post). Only then will you become successful in constructing your unusual, but super-cool social lead generation framework. (like in this social lead gen example). And remember: begin with the strategy and modeling first. Tactics come later.
Imagine this scene:
What just occurred here? An out-of-this-world case scenario?
Leads and lead generation is the lifeblood of any business, online or off. A system for client attraction must be put in place at the start of any new business. It must be continually tested. It must evolve from change and validated for positive return every step of the way.
There are many different ways to attract new clients into your business. In fact, the myriad of options that exist may actually throw you off. You test one thing, it doesn't work – moving right on to the second, third and fourth thing. You get discouraged and claim it's all "hype" and get down on yourself.
I've been there. We all have. (Talking about business owners and marketers who are responsible for lead flow).
The approach, or the model of client attraction is actually quite simple. There are only 4 steps to success, and I've outlined them below.
This is a social media tip to help you win more opportunity to build your brand, traffic and ultimately more business.
How can you create a good test for your business and brand? Try videos. And, start simple.
When using social media platforms, pictures and videos should be tested. Pictures, visual engagements pull 5 times over regular text posts in social media.

With part 3 in our Direct Response Marketing and Offline Mail Series you'll have learned the "3 Amazingly Simple Profit Strategies to Getting Buyer-Centric Clients, Money and Fame". If you want the complete report in PDF form, just send a note here.
Today – and in this final installment, we'll see how to get your marketing pieces mailed (postcard specific example) and tracked. You'll see what a typical offline to online direct mail marketing funnel might look like.
You can start and even grow this starting small. You don't have to have big budgets. I know small businesses can be cash-strapped and work with less marketing money than they'd like.
And, away we go… the direct marketing mountain top is yours to take!
"Reported in 2013 as the marketing channel that "delivers the best ROI for customer acquisition and retention" by Target Marketing's Seventh Annual Media Usage Forecast survey of B2C, direct mail is surprisingly outdated and under-represented on the marketing bookshelves for small business owners"
– Dan Kennedy, expert copywriter, author and master marketer
(This is part 2 of the "How to super-charge your lead generation" series. Find part 1 – "Why Direct Response Marketing Is The Best Thing Since Sliced Bread" here)
Welcome to part deux in our direct response marketing education. In this section, you'll learn more about how to create the marketing piece that goes out in the mail. In the final and 3rd installment, you'll get more resources and links. You'll also find out the best ways to get it mailed (earth-mail) and how you can track it.
I've researched and tested these direct / offline marketing strategies and they work, so let's get right to it.
Creating the content and the "irresistible offer" (Read more on Amazon, Mark Joyner) will take some tweaking. You'll not be very likely to create a home-run on the first try. But, you can copy and model others (see the resources section at the bottom of this special series).
Let's begin by choosing the right formats.
(This is part 1 of the "how to super-charge your lead generation" series. See part 2 – how to create direct mail pieces here)
Before we begin:
Make sure that you leave your "I know it all" attitude at the door. Leave your skeptic mind outside these following pages. I invite you to open yourself up and take a look at a new way of generating leads for your online business. Plus, whining about your business lead generation does not help. Let's move you to another level and thinking.
We are talking about direct mail and direct response marketing (DRM). The direct mail business is booming. We'll get to that.
News media makes money when they get your eyeballs. Most of time – and understanding how the human mind works, they focus on "negative" news and stories. You know what I mean. How many times do you stop or slow down for a beautiful sunset as you drive down the freeway? How about this instead: You see a horrific car crash that happened 30 minutes before, and you slow down and can't wait to see it? The media knows you better than you know yourself…
Direct-Response Marketing is a type of marketing designed to generate an immediate response from consumers, where each consumer response (and purchase) can be measured, and attributed to individual advertisements.[1] This form of marketing is differentiated from other marketing approaches, primarily because there are no intermediaries such as retailers between the buyer and seller, and therefore the buyer must contact the seller directly to purchase products or services. Direct-response marketing is delivered through a wide variety of media, including DRTV, radio, mail, print advertising, telemarketing, catalogues, and the Internet.
However, online activity is only part of this "game". Recent hard-copy offline statistics speak for themselves:
No matter what your background, sales and marketing will be the MOST important skills you can learn in your career.
And, it doesn't matter what personality type you are. You might be a creative person, a technical person, an introvert, extrovert and everything in-between.
The EXCITING truth: we are all born into this world naked and pure. And, with our bodies and minds ready to capture and assimilate all the information around us – from the good to the bad.
But, it's also true that the words "sales", "no" and "marketing" get a bad rap. Ask anybody when thinking about SALES – and the 'used car salesman' image enters the mind. (See, I just did it too!)
I spent most of my career developing software and working on application development, from user-experience (front-end) to middle-tier functionality, and large database systems (back-end). From small start-ups to large corporations like Microsoft, I found that the "biggest impact on company success"-departments were in sales, business development and marketing. (Especially early on, and in start-up of a new company, product or service.)
I also saw many companies and entrepreneurs spending lots of time on the "cool gadgets" and buried deep in technological discussions, when the REAL work should have been done in preparation for addressing a MARKET NEED.
I've had friends and friends-of-friends lose millions on wasted technology – and companies that were mostly focused on making money (ONLY) and not asking this simple question: Does the audience we serve (if they even knew that) actually have THIS problem?
Clearly, it became a question of "do you have more time, or do you have more money?" The person or company who had little time, but lots of money wasted THE MOST. Therefore, always consider yourself (even if you have the $$$) in a lean, start-up culture instead. Never assume anything. Research, survey…and… always test.
Then, you'll be ready to apply the things to consider for a highly optimized landing pages and sales position.
If you're getting started in SEO (search engine optimisation) then it might seem like an impossible amount to learn.
Optimisation is certainly a complex and multifaceted discipline and getting your head around it can mean fighting through a wall of misinformation and jargon.
What doesn't help much is the fact that SEO is constantly changing, meaning that what you learned a week ago won't necessarily be true anymore.
If this is the position you find yourself in, then what you need is a simple-to-understand and complete introduction that covers all the major themes and helps you to understand the process.
The good news is that you've found it!
Google is the leader in search. The massive 67% ownership of the search market (comScore) shows how a business who occupies top spots in Google Search, can drive big traffic when done right. A high authoritative and trusted website and relevant pages that Google loves will do it. That matters in local search engine optimization as well.
To attract more visitors (traffic) and get more sales (conversions) in 2014, your local business websites and listings must follow a few core principles. I'll talk about those in this post, including some (free) local search engine tools to get you started.

"Saturday Night Live" got a gift from Senator John McCain on August 29th, when he selected as his running mate Governor Sarah Palin: she looked like a Tina Fey character come to life. Sure enough, the show's thirty-fourth-season première, on September 13th, began with Fey, a former cast member, as Palin, and Amy Poehler, a current cast member, as Senator Hillary Clinton. Together, they delivered not quite congruent denunciations of campaign sexism. (Fey's Palin was blithe but not unkind. "Just look at how far we've come," she said, really meaning it. "Hillary Clinton, who came so close to the White House—and me, Sarah Palin, who is even closer! Can you believe it, Hillary?" The seething reply: "I cannot.") The show earned "Saturday Night Live" its highest ratings in six years. To capitalize on the political season, NBC added three half-hour Thursday-night installments to its schedule, which started on October 9th, and it seemed inevitable that the real Sarah Palin would make an appearance to confront the fake one, just as the real Hillary Clinton confronted the fake one, last spring.
Political impersonations on "Saturday Night Live" used to be a good deal more impersonal. Dan Aykroyd's version of President Carter had a half-Southern accent and a whole mustache. Chevy Chase's version of President Ford was pure whimsy, as if someone had simply said, "Jovial. Clumsy. Go!" They were making fun of Presidents, but they were also making fun of Presidential impersonation, a hoary showbiz tradition that had come to seem unhip. In the nineteen-eighties, the impressions grew more precise: there was an avalanche of Reagans, and then there was Dana Carvey, who found a quirky nerd lurking within the seemingly unquirky first President Bush. Like any regular characters on the show, the fake politicians had to be at least a little bit lovable, which is why the most successful political parodies tended to make their targets seem more sympathetic, not less. Will Ferrell played the second President Bush as a cheerful idiot who had been thrown into the deep end; he captured the winsome earnestness of a guy doing the best he can. As Bush, in a 2000 sketch, Ferrell used the non-word "strategery" to sum up his governing philosophy. Apparently, Bush liked the term: a schedule that was unearthed during the perjury trial of Scooter Libby revealed that the White House played host to at least one "strategery meeting."
McCain should be a perfect target for a "Saturday Night Live" parody: he is both the most expressive Presidential candidate in recent memory—quick to scowl, growl, or, when he's saying something that makes him uncomfortable, stumble over his words—and the gruffest. But Darrell Hammond, the cast's veteran impressionist (his President Clinton is deliciously sleazy), hasn't quite mastered him. Part of the problem might be that McCain's obvious physical characteristics, which would otherwise help Hammond earn easy laughs, are, just as obviously, unfunny: the left cheek swollen from cancer surgery, the arms stiff from war injuries.
Fred Armisen nails the minimalist speech patterns and mannerisms of Senator Barack Obama—the way he speeds up at the end of a phrase to make everything he says seem declarative, and the way he frowns as a sign that he's listening intently—but not much more; his Obama has no backstory. Comedians always claim to be equal-opportunity offenders, but comedy depends on shared assumptions, and one doesn't get the feeling that the "Saturday Night Live" staff shares many of the conservative movement's assumptions about Obama. The portrayals would be more biting—though not necessarily any funnier—if they took seriously the notion of Obama as a glib phony, a naïve dreamer, or a not-so-secret leftist. The show's best Obama humor so far came during an animated segment that was broadcast last spring. In it, Obama is a quick-thinking superhero, scrambling to keep Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson out of sight. Looking grave, he tells Jackson, "I want to send you to Bophuthatswana, to brief me on the conditions there."
Fey, who left "Saturday Night Live" in 2006, returned as a guest host in February for a show that seemed sympathetic to Hillary Clinton's flagging campaign. It started with a Fey-less sketch in which debate moderators fawned over Obama, asking if he was comfortable. (In a real debate soon afterward, Clinton said, "If anybody saw 'Saturday Night Live,' you know, maybe we should ask Barack if he's comfortable and needs another pillow." It was funnier the first time.) Then, during the "Weekend Update" segment, Fey made a not entirely unserious pitch for Clinton: "What bothers me the most is that people say that Hillary is a bitch. And let me say something about that: Yeah, she is. And so am I!"
Poehler's version of Hillary Clinton is a full character: good, smart, and diligent, but also impatient and a little bit greedy, and simultaneously angered and hurt by the dolts around her. (In a memorable Halloween episode last year, she dressed as a bride, in white, and her face fell as a stream of partygoers, including her husband, misidentified her as a witch.) By contrast, Fey's version of Sarah Palin is purely an amplification: she just turns up the glee and the swagger, the provincialism and the Alaska accent. If Palin is going to make Vice-Presidential-debate history by winking—how many times? five?—at the camera, then Fey is going to wink even more, and shoot off an imaginary gun, too. The two Palins are trying to make different points, but they're similarly outrageous, and similarly fun to watch. Fey recently called Palin "very likable," although she has also said, "I want to be done playing this lady November 5th."

A group of Tennessee Tech University faculty engineers and students, led by TTU mechanical engineering professor Kwun-Lon Ting, has received national recognition for work with theoretical kinematics.
Ting, along with graduate students Changyu Xue and Jun Wang and TTU's Center for Manufacturing Director Ken Currie, received the 2009 A.T. Yang Memorial Award for their paper entitled "Unified Mobility Analysis of Spatial Group 2 Mechanisms." They accepted the award at the 33rd Mechanisms and Robotics Conference in San Diego, Calif., earlier this month.
Ting, his students and Hong Zhou, a former student and professor at Texas A&M University-Kingsville, also presented five other papers in complex linkage mobility and compliant mechanisms at the conference. Their papers represent a significant advancement in the linkage mobility identification.
"I attibute this success to the motivation and hard work of my quality students, the support from my wife, Rebecca, and the financial support of our Manufacturing Center and the National Science Foundation," said Ting.
Ting discovered and published the rotatability laws in 1989, which were subsequently proved in 1991 through collaboration with TTU mathematics professor Yun-Way Liu. Tings rotatability laws are recognized as the foundation to systematically explain, understand, predict and identify the mobility of single-loop planar and spherical linkages and manipulators. His theorems have been adopted in the most popular undergraduate machinery textbook since 1999.
Their papers presented at the conference represent the first attempt to offer a mobility theory that extends from single loop to complex multiple loop planar and spherical linkages and even to spatial linkages. Mechanical linkages are a fundamental part of machinery including manipulators. Linkages are often the simplest, least expensive and most efficient mechanism to perform complicated motions or tasks. The mobility theory is to determine if a machine or manipulator may have the needed mobility to perform the desired task in the design of machines or programming of manipulators.
This peer-reviewed process rewarded the TTU team with a cash award and a plaque.
Ting, who is internationally known for his contribution to machines and mechanisms theory, was the recipient of TTU Caplenor Faculty Research Award (2007-2008). He was also the recipient of B. Roth Award (1993-1995) and the South-Pointing Chariot Award (1999-2000) of the Applied Mechanisms and Robotics Conference. The South-Pointing Chariot Award is the highest award conferred by the AMR Conference. Ting is an ASME Fellow and currently serves as Associate Editor of Journal of Mechanical Design, which is the most prestigious journal in machine theory and design.
In a visit to China, Ting was honored as the Seasky Chair Professor by Dalian University of Technology, China. He received his bachelor's degree from National Taiwan University, his master's degree from Clemson University and his doctorate from Oklahoma State University.

If the NCAA's allegations against the University of Miami's athletic program adhered to conventional fair-trial rules, the case would be thrown out of court and the prosecutor would be reprimanded for gross incompetence.
The NCAA, however, runs its own show, makes up its own rules and answers to no one but itself, and that's a huge problem for anyone who wants to see a fair outcome at the end of this long and painful process.
In the case against UM, the NCAA's high-handed, self-serving process has made a mockery out of its own inquiry. UM President Donna Shalala has been clear in expressing regret for violations committed by the university. UM should not be let off the hook because of a botched investigation. That's not fair to all the schools and athletes who play by the rules.
But the NCAA has handled this probe so poorly, in such a clumsy manner, that its own authority and integrity have been brought into question. Its discredited case against the University of Miami is tainted in a variety of ways, including the use of flagrantly unreliable witnesses, testimony coerced by bullying, and — most astounding — paying a lawyer for its chief witness and accuser to gather information it could not otherwise obtain. And that's not in dispute — it's what the NCAA admitted after investigating itself.
In an actual trial, a judge would have hurled a gavel at the prosecutor out of sheer frustration, but the NCAA more or less shrugged it off. After firing its vice president for enforcement, it blithely declared that it would simply ignore all the "evidence" it gathered in unethical and unprincipled ways and proceed with the rest of the case as if nothing had happened.
And — this is really rich — it went ahead and issued a so-called Notice of Allegations in which the university is accused of "lack of institutional control," as if the NCAA's muddled inquiry into UM's practices had not exposed its own institutional failings.
What a mess.
Some university boosters would like "The U" sentenced to time served, and there's a case to be made for that.
Its self-imposed penalties have included a post-season football bowl ban for two years, withholding some student athletes from competition, and forfeiting the chance to participate in a conference championship game. But letting UM determine its own punishment doesn't seem fair, either.
At least a few of the allegations claiming that Hurricane booster Nevin Shapiro spent years showering UM sports teams, athletes and coaches with a variety of inducements that corrupted the sports program appear to be valid. These are serious charges. If true, there should be equally serious consequences, even though Shapiro is serving a 20-year sentence for a $900 million Ponzi scheme and has little credibility on his own.
At this point, the best course would be for the NCAA to move as quickly as possible to bring this case to a close. As things stand, a hearing against UM is not expected until July, and any punishment could come months later.
That's too long. UM needs to be accountable for its actions, but the process should be expedited in a manner fair to all parties so that it can begin to recover and so athletes who weren't at the U when all this took place won't be punished.
After that, the NCAA must overhaul its own procedures and governance, beginning with the replacement of President Mark Emmert. The NCAA demands accountability for any violations by its members. Now it must show that it can play by the same rules.
