Closet Organizers Q&A
What are closet organizers?
Closet organizers are a system of storage boxes, shelves, drawers, hooks and racks that make your closet a well-organized storage area. With closet organizers, your closet will be tidy and uncluttered, and it becomes easier to locate the items you need.
Why are closet organizers typically made of wood?
Wood closet organizers give a feeling of elegance to a closet, and the natural shade of high quality woods used in both closet organizers and other types of furniture in the room add to the feeling of sophistication and natural harmony. Wood is also highly durable. Whatever type of material you choose, personal preferences and budget always play a part in the decision-making process.
Should I use freestanding or wall-hung closet organizers?
Freestanding or wall-hung are the two main options for professional closet organizers, and many people choose to combine the two.
Wall-hung units do not have to be attached to studs, though with studs they can carry heavier loads, which is important when thinking about long-term use of closet organizers.
Freestanding closet organizers, or modular systems, give you the ability to mount units on walls or ceiling if possible. But they are also portable, in case you want to move the closet in the future.
Many California Closets systems are a hybrid of the two types of closet organizers, utilizing hanging rods and shelves that are connected to drawer units, which rest on the ground. Depending on your specific needs, we will design closet organizers to suit.

Rivals.com has an archive that's easily accessible, so takes only a few minutes to see how highly regarded this year's six Heisman Trophy finalists were out of high school.
Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel and Boston College's Andre Williams were give only three stars. Northern Illinois' Jordan Lynch rated only two stars. Imagine that.
But Alabama's AJ McCarron and Auburn's Tre Mason were four-star guys, which means they were slated to be top-flight players. And the eventual winner, Florida State's Jameis Winston, was a five-star prospect – the top rating possible.
The "star" rating of it is only one part of the process. It's a prediction of how well a particular player might do, not a 100-percent guarantee. Obviously.
Some guys grow. Some guys develop faster because they go somewhere they can get on the field faster. Some guys have a work ethic and drive that isn't readily apparent even to recruiting analysts, who seem to be better at their jobs than, say, the weather forecasters.
Consider the 2002 recruiting class, which is the oldest one listed in the Rivals.com archive. Alabama and Auburn each signed a defensive player who was better than most would've predicted. For Alabama, it was DeMeco Ryans, while for Auburn, it was Will Herring. Both were rated as three-star prospects, which predicts they'll be good players but not great.
Both shined in college. Both made it in the NFL. Both still are playing. How can a recruiting analyst predict that a dozen years earlier?

It's fall. School's in session and everyone's hauling home books to do their homework. Are you doing your homework as a manager?
Try these "textbooks" for an easy autumn management curriculum.
From Amazon.com, "Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman expose the fallacies of standard management thinking. . . . In seven chapters, the two consultants for the Gallup Organization debunk some dearly held notions about management, such as 'treat people as you like to be treated'; 'people are capable of almost anything'; and 'a manager's role is diminishing in today's economy.' 'Great managers are revolutionaries,' the authors write. 'This book will take you inside the minds of these managers to explain why they have toppled conventional wisdom and reveal the new truths they have forged in its place.'
The authors have culled their observations from more than 80,000 interviews conducted by Gallup during the past 25 years. Quoting leaders such as basketball coach Phil Jackson, Buckingham and Coffman outline 'four keys' to becoming an excellent manager: Finding the right fit for employees, focusing on strengths of employees, defining the right results, and selecting staff for talent--not just knowledge and skills."
From Publisher's Weekly, "Wall Street Journal columnist Petzinger (Hard Landing) does an excellent job of spotlighting the faces behind the businesses that are leading the way into what he calls the 'new economy.' The new economy is entrepreneurial, not corporate; it stresses adaptation rather than bureaucratic planning, 'teamwork' and 'empowerment' rather than rigid command-and-control structures. While the stories of the people behind innovative companies are often intriguing, readers will be left wondering what to do with this information. Some readers will even find Petzinger's premise puzzling. For instance, his introductory example is an innovative Philadelphia pharmacy that managed to succeed in a poverty-stricken area of the city. Petzinger is full of justified admiration for the way the owner wedded his pharmacy to the community, offered employees profit sharing and made a mint. Ultimately, however, the owner was so successful that he sold his three stores to Rite-Aid. This inspiring and informative book would have been even better had Petzinger delved more deeply into the paradox that the successes and innovations of the new pioneers he celebrates coincide with an era of increasing corporate consolidation. Readers are left wanting more guidance from someone who clearly knows the territory."

The flattering pink of rhodonite and the simple contemporary design of these earrings will refresh your look every time you put them on. Round rhodonite beads set into polished sterling silver are twisted into a shape that is flattering to every face. Earrings measure 1-1/4" long x 5/8" wide and feature a sterling silver post and clutch. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the natural gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Mixology maestro Sasha Petraske has abandoned his opening concept--focusing on sipping spirits, not cocktails--but this narrow, lamp-lit spot is all the better for it. The bar now cranks out expertly rendered classics such as brawny Sazeracs and aromatic old-fashioneds anchored by hand-cracked ice. Absinthe is still the bar's centerpiece, but the liquor's snail-pace preparation (a bartender dribbles icy water over a slotted, sugar-topped spoon) slows down service. Stick with mixed drinks instead.

LIVE IT UP AT LIVINGSTON RESTAURANT AND BAR – A great play has to have a unique story that grabs ones attention, touching on every emotion, and when the final curtain falls it leaves its audience wanting more. Located in ATL's theatre district, Livingston Restaurant and Bar is in every way like seeing a smash Broadway production. The stage is none other than the historic Georgian Terrace Hotel noted for its early twentieth century elegant architecture and opulence. Executive Chef Zeb Stevenson along with his stellar support cast performs nightly for your pleasure by preparing foods that deserve a standing ovation.
The opening scene can start and even stop at the ultra-chic bar with its exceptional cocktail and wine list. Here there is a light fare menu that has some tasty munchies that have the same dramatic flair as those served in the main dining room. It is one of the poshest bars in the city with its comfortable lounge-like atmosphere making it easy to relax and enjoy the finer pleasures of life.
The excitement takes center stage as the first dish arrives at the table. It is evident that quality and freshness are a must in order to capture the food's essence that's presented in a way only an artist can. The Italian sashimi-like treat, Tuna Crudo requires the best ingredients but also the preparation must be precise so the fish doesn't lose any of its delicate nuances; a pistachio-mint pesto rests on top of a delectable ahi grade yellowfin tuna that's garnished with lemon zest and jazzy candied mustard; savor each bite of this heavenly dish. If you want pure ecstasy, the thinly sliced Kobe Carpaccio will surely satisfy the desire. As the creamy texture of the rare Eye of Round melts in the mouth, the flavors are intensified by the house made champagne vinegar caviar and shallot salt - the sensation is unbelievable.
The starter that showcases Zeb's mid-western heritage is the Chicken Bratwurst made from sustainably raised Freebird Chickens. It's served with shaved Brussels sprouts that are pan cooked with toasted caraway seeds, and for dipping a sassy mustard butter – this juicy sausage is truly a labor of love. Of the intriguing salads there's one to die for. The spinach salad has such amazing depth of flavors that seem to go on forever. Dressing these tender baby leaves is a creamy Gorgonzola dolce, sweet pan-roasted cippolini onions, and an otherworldly candied bacon vinaigrette. And you know everything goes better with bacon - this bacon is special, it's cured and smoked on-site.
The foods get even more dramatic as one ventures deeper into Livingston's menu. One of the most well prepared cuts of beef in the city is the Grilled Skirt Steak. A slight tinge of the tropics is infused onto the meat after briefly marinating in papaya juice – a natural tenderizer. Once the meat has a nice char, this dish really gets up and sings as a smoked butter hollandaise sauce is added. The Maple Leaf Farms Duck Breast is what duck breast should taste like – these moist morsels of meat have a slight gaminess that too often is lost. This juicy breast is brined overnight then cold smoked giving the meat a rich smoky character, which is then glazed with a tangy orange sauce. But what makes this jaw dropping dish scream are the sweet and sour candied kumquats.
Before the curtain closes, Pastry Chef Frances Soto has created some masterpieces that will take those few un-aroused taste buds and stand them on their edge. The gingerbread cake has a pumpkin cheesecake center that's sauced with a spiced reduction of Guinness Stout and a Pecan Florentine. And if this doesn't cause you to gasp, the Fried Pear and Cranberry pie with a crème fraiche will, especially when the caramel bourbon sauce kicks in. Whether it is a stop before heading to the Fox, or simply to satisfy a need to take the senses on a culinary adventure, Livingston Restaurant and Bar has a front row seat waiting just for you to live it up.
Great Hotel BUT..... – It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at referer.us/8/GoodHotelDeals They usually have some pretty good deals on there!
Millionaire Mondays worth it – We went for Millionaire Monday and I had the lobster and my friends had the steak. It's only $16, you can't beat that. It is only a soup or salad and then the entree, I had read that it came with a side too, but that must have been taken off the menu. Wine was good, desert was miniature, almost hilariously miniature. You get a good sized lobster tail and claws, probably about 1-2lb lobster. The filet was probably about 8 oz. The valet was confused and waived everyone to the parking garage, so I had to drive all the way back around to get valet.
My husband and I tried the Millionaire Monday menu and it was fabulous. Steak or Lobster a side and salad/soup for $16. The food was oustanding and the portions were reasonable. We also tried an appetizer of calamari wrapped chorizo. It was soo good and like nothing I have tried before. Carolyn was our server and she was attentive, kind and checked back after each course to be sure we were happy. The timing of each course was perfect. I can't wait to go back again to try more of the menu.
Great atmosphere! – I dined at the Livingston before attending a performance at the Fox. The staff is awesome! They're all knowledgeable and professional (never loud, no personal chatter). They set the tone of the entire Livingston ambiance. The decor is memorable. I enjoyed just being in the restaurant and lounge.
Although my experience was lovely, the food could have been better...just average hotel restaurant food. My date ordered the fried pork (chop), and they burned the bottom. She sent it back and ordered the salmon which they promptly prepared.
I think next week, I'll go to Dogwood for dinner (I've never had a bad meal with Chef Touhy and their service is top-notch, as well) then have cocktails at the Livingston before the show.
Millionaire Monday = Brilliant! – First off, please note that this is time sensitive. And I don't know how long they're going to run this special... but on Monday nights Livingston does a thing called Millionaire Mondays. The title is a bit of a stretch (you'll feel like a millionaire? don't know about that) but this deal is so good it's stupid.
You get a choice of steak or whole lobster, soup or salad plus a side for $16.
And they don't hold back on the amount either. I love steak but lobster is 1.)something I usually don't get, and 2.) totally out of this world. It comes already cut, sitting in parts of the shell with a heavy hand of butter already applied. It takes all the guess work out of it and you don't have to wear one of those goofy plastic bibs. The tomato risotto that it sits on is delicious, but honestly after the lobster, it's an afterthought.
I'm not sure how long this will last so I'd take full advantage asap.
Fabulous Spot in Midtown! – chef gary is out on the floor and gets to know the customers--i feel like he cooks the meals for me and each time he has said hi and made my experience special. the space is gorgeous and the menu is full of southern favs with modern, fresh twists. definitely fun before a show at the fox but also a great date spot or with a group of friends on a non show night!
Chef Gary Mennie's Return, The Fox's Gain! – Many of us in Brookwood, were heart broken with the closing of Gary's "Taurus". It was wonderful and special. But like the symbol of Atlanta, The Phoenix, Chef Mennie has come back. At the most historical and wonderful corner in the city, Peachtree & Ponce, Chef Mennie has brought his talent to the Georgian Terrace Hotel. Is this the same place where the "Gone With The Wind" stars's, came after the films opening, and is now an elegant hip Dining Room & Bar? Of course, this is what Atlanta is all about. And we were all about Gary's creative menu. Being a soup freak, and judging a restaurants talents by the soup, the soup delivered. A Jerusalem Artichoke puree with little bit's of green apple for garnishments, turned out to be one of the best soups in years. The Short Rib Ravioli was amazing. My companion loved the Berkshire Pork Loin, was very moist. While the wine list was very short, the selection was sufficient. Service is still somewhat green. But finally a great new dining destination, for all of us Fox Theater patron's. Maybe just a drink on the famous terrace, facing the Fox. Heck, we don't need to attend a performance at The Fox, to come to Livingston. It's another great addition to the growing restaurant scene in Midtown.
One of the Best in Atlanta – I live in San Francisco and travel to Atlanta for business frequently. I am very impressed with the growing food scene and the quality of restaurants that I've encountered. I'm one of the lucky people who still have a decent expense account and can pretty much eat where I want. One Atlanta restaurant in particular shines for me - Livingston Restaurant and Bar. The first impression you have when walking into the bar is the grand scale and beautiful architecture that has been restored in contemporary furnishings and decor that enhance the space giving it a warm and contemporary feel. Their inventive drinks list is first rate and I've tried their signature "Livingston" cocktail (more than once) and it's wonderful and refreshing.
The restaurant space itself is amazing. From the 30 foot ceilings, to the champagne bar, the view of the open kitchen and the warm hospitality - the place literally glitters. I'm a passionate wine collector and a self-confessed food & wine snob. Both of these passions (some would say character flaws) were well served at Livingston. They have an excellent wine selection at all price points for both reds and whites and after talking to Andy their GM I understand why, the guy knows his stuff.
Finally the food. One word, "Glorious". Chef Gary, one of the top chefs in Atlanta, has a deft and light hand in the kitchen and the flavors and attention to detail is to be applauded. Ever try rabbit? I haven't had it since the late 80's. Friends said it was amazing so I gave it a try and it was fabulous - light, moist, flavor -packed. On another night I tried the braised beef ravioli - smok'n. All of the appetizers I've had there during my 3 visits were great and they have a very talented pastry chef that turns out excellent and creative desserts.
Going back to the restaurant space - eat out on the terrace on a warm night and watch the midtown world go by - from people visiting the Fox Theater for a show or all of the cool people who live in this vibrant part of Atlanta.
I can't say enough about this place.
Culinary elegance shines in the Georgian Terrace. – Taking up the street side space in the Georgian Terrace, Livingston Restaurant, named after former Atlanta mayor and early foodie Livingston Mims, mixes Old South charm and modern flare. Limestone columns, chic glass chandeliers and a massive bar is just an extravagant beginning. The large patios overlooking the Fox Theatre's marquees is a great spot for afternoon dining, but for an intimate evening, opt for the inside. Chef Gary Mennie (of Canoe fame) is at the helm serving up his version of American culinary classics. Little bits of green apple delicately adds to the flavor of the artichoke soup, scallops are perfectly cooked and go down like butter. Thin slices of Birkshire pork magically retain moisture, helped along by a wonderful salty Vidalia onion jus. Sommelier Othman Belkadi delivers a well thought-out wine list that appropriately matches this high end gourmand destination.

DALLAS — The start of the 2011 school year this week is probably a bit more special for 36-year-old Patrick McLarty than most other teachers and school administrators. Earlier this year, McLarty, assistant principal at Ponder Junior High, finished the final round of physical rehabilitation after a brush with death two years ago.
It's the first time he'll start the school year with a clean bill of health — and no doctor appointments — since suffering a rare type of stroke that choked his brain of oxygen and forced surgeons to remove part of his skull to relieve pressure and spare his neurological system from major damage.
"I'm excited, as always, at the start of a new school year," he said. "I love being around kids and educators, but this year is special because I feel like I'm moving on and getting back to life. No more doctor's appointments or rehab sessions. I can put my focus on my work, school and family."
His medical odyssey began April 21, 2009.
McLarty went to a local emergency room after a kernel of corn got stuck in his esophagus. It wasn't all too unusual for McLarty, whose esophagus is smaller than normal. He grew up with the condition, which sometimes caused minor discomfort but nothing life-threatening. Usually, the food would pass into his stomach after a few minutes. Two times previously, though, he had to go to the emergency room for a procedure to dislodge the food.
After a few hours that April day in 2009, the kernel was still stuck in his esophagus. "Later that evening, I started to get a little more concerned," he said. "I decided it was time to go to the ER."
To clear the object, doctors performed a procedure that involved using a scope and air to dislodge the food. But McLarty's esophagus tore during the procedure, allowing air to pass into his mediastinum, the central compartment of the chest that contains the heart, major cardiac blood vessels, lymph nodes, cardiac nerves, esophagus, trachea and other vital tissue.
A tiny air bubble leaked into an artery. The arterial gas embolism eventually made its way to his brain, causing a type of stroke so rare that fewer than 20 cases have ever been recorded in medical literature. Strokes, which happen when brain tissue is starved of oxygen, are normally caused by blood clots. And in the few cases when air embolisms form in the blood stream, the bubbles are usually "caught" and filtered in the lungs.
McLarty wasn't so lucky. With a major portion of his brain suddenly cut off from oxygen, he slipped into a coma.
He was quickly flown to Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas.
"I woke up and didn't know where I was, and all these doctors were hovering over me," McLarty recalls. "I didn't know what had happened."
A team of physicians on the medical staff at Texas Health Dallas, including neurologists, neurosurgeons, pulmonologists and critical care specialists, devised a plan. First, they would try to shrink the air bubble using leading-edge hyperbaric medicine technology at the hospital's Institute for Exercise and Environmental Medicine.
The air inside hyperbaric chamber is compressed to simulated depths of up to six atmospheres. When breathing 100 percent oxygen while at increased atmospheric pressure, patients receive up to 10 times more oxygen than normal. That makes the blood more "oxygen-rich," which can aid in healing injured tissue. Additionally, the gasses in blood and organs undergo all the same physiological changes that people experience when deep-sea diving, often shrinking air bubbles like the one in McLarty's brain.
With daily trips to the hyperbaric chamber, the embolism in McLarty's brain shrank but did not go away completely. It still posed a serious threat: his brain tissue was beginning to swell.
So Dr. Jeremy Denning, a neurosurgeon on the medical staff at Texas Health Dallas, decided a craniotomy was needed to let his brain swell safely. The procedure involved removing part of the skull to allow the brain to expand without increasing pressure inside the head and damaging the brain and spinal cord. Denning eventually cut out half of McLarty's skull so his brain could safely swell.
"Hearing that I needed the surgery was tough for my family," McLarty recalled. "But Dr. Denning put my wife at ease. He was so confident that it was the right thing to do that everyone accepted it and knew I'd be OK."
The surgery went well. His brain was allowed to swell, then began to shrink back to its normal size. In a matter of days, the embolism had disappeared. A follow-up surgery safely closed his skull.
"Patrick's condition was serious enough that surgical intervention was needed," Denning said. "We knew the brain would continue to swell, and the craniotomy was a way to give it room to expand without additional neurologic damage."
But McLarty's journey was not over. He would spend weeks in the hospital's intensive care unit. He soon began to respond to doctors, nurses and family, including wife Emily, who waited vigil at his bedside. While still in bed, the Ponder football team came to the hospital to visit their coach. A woman who had suffered a major brain injury and been cared for at Texas Health Dallas came to visit Emily and give hope.
"It's very powerful as a clinician to see the network of people who stop their lives to be at their loved-one's side in a moment of crisis like this," said Dr. Gary Weinstein, chief of pulmonology and critical care medicine at Texas Health Dallas and a physician on the hospital's medical staff. "I think all the doctors and nurses involved in Patrick's care did a great job, and we're proud of the recovery he was able to make. But I think the support of his friends and family, especially his wife Emily, also played a major role in his recovery."
While making strides after the surgery, he still couldn't talk or walk and his left side was almost completely paralyzed. But he was awake and every hour clinicians would run tests to ensure he was out of danger.
Then one morning he seemed more awake than usual, Emily recalled. He signed to her that he loved her.
"At that point, I knew everything was going to be OK," she said.
Despite the success of the surgery, doctors warned Emily that it might be months, maybe years before he fully recovered. He might not be able to feed himself for six months. Going back to teaching and coaching football? Focus on the small things, they told her. Those were goals for another day.
But like the arterial gas embolism that traveled to his brain, there would be another unusual chapter in McLarty's story, something no one anticipated.
With the kind of determination and fight he instilled in his players, McLarty put everything he had into recovery and rehabilitation … hours every day, learning to talk again, learning to walk again, learning to feed himself again.
Each day that went by brought a new milestone.
"He recovered quicker than I think anyone could have predicted," Denning said. "In many ways, we were simply happy that he had survived and had hopes for a normal life again. We never imagined his rehabilitation would progress so quickly. I think that's a credit to his determination and willpower."
Less than five weeks after surgery, McLarty was discharged from the hospital. He went to inpatient rehabilitation, where he underwent three more weeks of intensive work. Every day, he made major strides in his recovery.
Then, four months after the arterial air embolism traveled to his brain, he returned to coaching the Ponder High School football team full-time — just in time for the first game of the year.
"It was very emotional for me," he recalls. "To be back doing what I love and know that everything was going to be OK was a big moment for me."
It was a fitting return for McLarty, who in 2006 had started Ponder High School's football program, helped build its state-of-the-art field house and was the team's first head coach. The next semester, he was offered and accepted a job as assistant principal at Ponder's junior high, a position he still holds today.
Despite the apparent success of treatments and his dedication to rehabilitation, there would still be more than a year and a half of grueling work to get his balance, movement and body back to normal.
But this week, as school starts, McLarty plans to be going full steam ahead. Aside from a slight loss of dexterity in his left hand, the father and husband says he's back normal.
Back to normal except for something he gained during his medical journey.
"I learned a big lesson that you never know what life is going to bring you. One day everything seems fine, everything is going normal and something like this happens. It's taught me not to take things for granted."

She talks about how in Yemen it is common for kids to commit suicide if they are forced into marriage, and how some children's lives are stolen from them.
Nada is now waiting in hopes that journalists, human-rights activists and different local organizations will help her make a strong case against her parents who are trying to get her back so they can go on with the marriage process.

|Do You Know Where Your Best Leverage Is?
|We've got 10 ideas to help you figure it out.
Labor is hotels' No. 1 cost. If you go into a negotiation with some solid ways to save on labor, that's good leverage, says Michael Dominguez, vice president, global sales, Loews Hotels & Resorts. Here are five ideas.
1. Banquets
Have your reception and dinner in the same venue. Using a ballroom and its foyer is much less expensive for the hotel to provide than the ballroom and, say, the poolside patio, which would require a whole separate crew.
2. Setup
Changing the rounds you had for breakfast into classroom seating for your general session is very labor intensive. Keep the rounds.
3. Check in
Give the hotel detailed information about guest arrivals. If everyone's coming at 11 a.m., the hotel won't overstaff the desk at 8 a.m.
4. Turndown
When Loews surveyed guests about turndown, the majority of respondents said they don't want it. Consider the service for VIPs only.
5. Dining
With a smaller group, using the restaurant for meals means using labor that's already paid for. "This should count toward your F&B minimum," Dominguez said (assuming the hotel owns the restaurant). Note also that buffets are less labor-intensive than plated meals.

Basic Facebook Strategies for Ecommerce Stores
Here is a list of a few quick, easy to implement, facebook strategies for ecommerce stores to use. While there are many more strategies that Facebook gurus can suggest, we've seen our clients really benefit from just taking care of these basic ones.
1. Facebook Coupons
Distributing coupons through facebook. Can be placed in ads / in brand pages, or distributed through emails. We've seen the facebook ad campaigns become a lot more effective, with a coupon code added in the text.
2. Polls and Trivia
People just can't get enough of Trivia, and facebook marketers are using that fact. When an online brand regularly dolls out trivia it attracts a certain type of customer to the brand on facebook. These customers are easy to engage and contribute with comments and take part in polls. This helps in promoting the brand to their friends as part of the updates. This feature is so much more effective than the "invite-a-friend" option that lots of e-retailers are using.
3. Fangating
Fangating is basically when you give a customer a discount coupon or available for an exclusive offer only on the condition of them liking your brand on facebook. Yes, it does sound a bit too much of a commercial exchange at first. But we've seen that customers are more than okay to do that in exchange for the promotions. The benefits might range from discount coupon codes to store credit to exclusive opening passes, etc.
A note of caution here: Make sure that the customer is happy for what they get in return of that "like". Otherwise it can get ugly.
4. Contests
A bit along the same lines as Trivia, but with added incentives. Get the customers engaged by asking them questions, or asking them for suggestions on the brand page, and then declaring that the top 10 entries get a prize / reward. Facebook citizens love contests. We've seen huge jumps in the number of likes for a brand while a contest was going on. Again the more regularly this is done, the higher the rewards for the brand.
5. Customer Feedback / Comments
Engage with your customers. Reply to their comments, whether they're thrilled or unsatisfied with your brand. Keep the interactions real, cut out the marketing / sales pitch and keep it genuine. And your brand page will see an increase in the number of likes and visitors.
6. Updates
Keep communicating with your customers about your new products / launches / or anything thats new at your company. You'll be surprised at how many people will be rooting for your success when you keep them updated about it.
Manoj Ramesh, is the Business Development Manager at Tenovia Solutions, an Ecommerce product and services company. Besides loving to launch ecommerce stores, he also loves watching movies and loves trying out new restaurants.

Full Moon
Peter wanted us to mark this month's full moon in some way, the lunar inspired updates have slipped slightly over the past months into more of a full venue driven timetable.
The band are currently heading for tomorrow night's West Palm Beach - Coral Sky Amphitheatre
show and unfortunatly time has not allowed us to get Peter in front of a camera. We do however have an interesting little snippet in the Full Moon Club video collection -
an exclusive taste of Tricky's Growing Up remix.
Sorting through some of our tour images for future projects, including those of Tony Levin above, I was sidetracked into the world of
Ned Steinberger; who makes the bass Tony is holding.
www.nedsteinberger.com tells you..."he drew on his parents' influences: his mother an artist, and his father a musical Nobel Prize winning physicist. He set up his own wood shop at 13."
The site has some interesting audio and video clips of Tony and Laurie Anderson amongst others.

Out to dinner with husband or friends. Can dress up or down.
Great lightweight fabric without being too clingy. Nice shape - a bit curved at the waist and a perfect length - not too short and not too long.
Thank you for the great feedback on this Adore Floral Tee. We are so glad you find it to fit great and like the length as well.

Great tee for the warm summer months with shorts.
This top fits great and has a really nice pattern to it! It is a bit long out of the package but once washed the fit is much better. I sized up because with most organic cotton they shrink.
Thank you for your feedback on the fit and your experience after washing it. We appreciate your review.

Casual wear
I like the design (I got the blue) and the thinness of the 100% cotton material but I don't care for the flaring at the bottom. I probably should have gone a size down but I didn't want it to be a tight fitting shirt so I got the small instead. If you like easy-wear shirts, this one is for you! it can be dressed up or worn casually.
Perfect! That is great you are able to wear this shirt everywhere and with almost everything. We appreciate your input on sizing. Thank you.
Larger than Expected
I am happy that this t-shirt is 100% cotton. It's nice and light, but not too thin or see-through. I also like its length; many t-shirts are too short and I like them on the longer side. The sizing is also good. I'm usually a medium but sometimes medium is too small; on this t-shirt medium is just right for me. (Sometimes I wish manufacturers provided a S-M, and a M-L size for those of us that don't "bin" into one of S, M, or L.)
We are so glad you love the feel of this shirt from the 100% organic cotton it is made out of. Thank you for the feedback on the sizing as well. We are thrilled it is a perfect fit.
Sized as Expected
Weekend wear, hiking, etc.

'Pawnee' has an upright habit and warm fall colors that persist into winter. This refined offbig bluestem has the bluish purple stems typical of the genus. In late summer, Purplish red flowers appear in groups of three or six, which look like a turkey foot—hence the nickname: "Turkey Foot Grass." The root system that can extend down more than 10 feet. Each year, a third of these roots die, opening up channels for water. -Scott Vogt, Native grasses, Fine Gardening issue #124
Blue grama is a perennial grass from the Americas bearing unusually bent and flattened inflorescences. Being native to open grasslands, they are drought tolerant and at home in meadows. They provide the garden with shades of tan that persist throughout winter.
'Hachita' has narrow, blue-green leaves that form dense mounds. In summer, elongated seedheads add visual interest. This tough, drought-tolerant grass thrives in sand or clay soil with full-sun exposure. It needs a setting with good drainage, as it won't thrive in wet conditions. -Scott Vogt, Native grasses, Fine Gardening issue #124
Versatile, attractive and care-free ornamental grass with wheat-like appearance. Slender, upright, deep-green, lustrous foliage becomes effective by early spring and lasts all the way until winter. A cool season grass, 'Karl Foester' is upright and clump forming, with purplish-green, feathery plumes to 6'. It distinctively blooms in early summer rather than fall and must have winter chill to bloom. Long lived -- 25 years or more. -Santa Rosa Gardens
This versatile ornamental grass has slender, upright, deep-green foliage. A cool season grass, it is upright and clump forming, with purplish-green, feathery plumes that can reach 6 feet in height. It blooms in early summer rather than fall and must have winter chill to bloom.
Information provided by Santa Rosa Gardens.
Two-foot-tall, stiff, orange-brown blades curve at the end like a shepherd's staff. Burnished red-bronze foliage, which fades to flax at the tips, gives off a warm glow when backlit by the sun.
This sedge is one of the most adaptable of the ground-cover grasses. Its ability to look the same in sun or shade makes it a valuable asset in plantings that go in and out of full sun. Berkeley sedge is a good solution for areas under stress where lawn grasses often fail. The flowers are not particularly noteworthy.
This beautiful sedge's vivid foliage adds bright color to the garden. The yellow seems to glow in partial shade. Use this dramatic clump of foliage near water or in shallow water, or in another moist location.
'Ice Dance' is a dense, spreading sedge grown for its foliage. This sedge looks good year round, even in winter.The early-spring flowers are insignificant, but the white-edged leaves complement most other plants. Grow as a groundcover in woodland areas or in a shade garden. This sedge is evergreen in warm climates. -Jane Hutson, Regional Picks: Midwest, Fine Gardening issue# 127
Seersucker sedge is an evergreen, spreading sedge with narrow brown-black flowers on 8-inch stems in spring. Its wide, puckered foliage is shiny and bright green, reaching over a foot long. This sedge is native to rich woods of the eastern U.S. and makes a nice edger or accent plant.
This sedge's pearly, straplike leaves resemble striped ribbon waiting to be wrapped around a package. It sports fuzzy green flowers with green stamens in late spring. Grow as an edging or groundcover.
Northern sea oats is a loosely tufted, clump-forming grass with lance-shaped, arching mid-green foliage that turns yellow in winter. Summer brings highly decorative oat-like panicles of flat, green flowerheads that shimmer and rustle in the wind, aging to bronze by late summer.
This basal branching cordyline combines the rugged easy-care attributes of its cordyline cousins with an unusual mix of shiny dark color, compact bushy form, short stems and cascading grass-like leaves.
This stunning grass has 1- to 3-foot-long, densely tufted plumes atop tall, upright stalks and arching mid-green leaves. Plumes come in white, cream, or beige-pink and appear in late summer.
This clumping, drought-tolerant grass is one of the best pampas grasses you could grow. It has the showy, late-summer plumes common to this group, but they grow straight up, not willy-nilly like many other varieties; they eventually stand 4 to 6 feet above the foliage. Even better news is that this cultivar does not set seed, so it is noninvasive. The foliage features distinct golden edges, which, for a grass, usually menas that it loves shade or moisture. But 'Gold Band' tolerates heat and drought, making it great for large containers, and it can handle coastal conditions, too.
This dwarf cultivar has mid-green leaves and densely tufted plumes atop tall, upright stalks and arching mid-green leaves. Masses of silvery yellow plumes appear in late summer.
A tuft of thin grassy foliage with gray and gold variegation distinguishes this cultivar. Early summer brings 3-foot-tall, airy plumes of tiny flowers that look beautiful when backlit by the sun. As fall approaches, the foliage turns golden with pink-coral tips. This grass even grows well in shadier sites. Plant in a border, woodland garden, or shaded rock garden.
This plant has densely tufted, spreading clumps of strap-like, flowing foliage. Pale blue-gray leaves arch loosely. In summer, it produces stiff, upright, blue-gray spikes of flowers that turn buff.
From late spring until fall, Boer love grass puts on a glorious display as inflorescences that emerge silver and dry to gold dance up to 2 feet above the fine-textured clump of foliage. The show is shorter in humid climates.
This striking clump-forming bamboo, with olive-purple stems, dark green leaves, and an upright habit, is suitable for screening. May be grown in a container if provided with adequate moisture.

Frank has ALWAYS thrown his players under the bus. As a Mizzou grad I followed Frank Martin at K-State and after each loss he would blame the players, and at times even drop names or plays(you knew which player) that led to his defeat. His act will wear thin because behind all of his tough talk is the fact that he can not coach basketball. Look for players to be thrown under the bus in the future.
Frank Martin is a quote machine. In fact, we should probably create a new icon that simply says "Frank Said It." Couple his loquaciousness with a miserable year on the hardwood — South Carolina is 12-13 overall, but 2-10 in SEC play — and you're sure to get quotation gold. Like these dandies Martin tossed out after his Gamecocks' home loss to LSU last Thursday:
1. "If you take (point guard) Bruce Ellington off our team, you'd probably have the 12 leading candidates for the starring roles in 'The Return of the Living Dead,' the zombie movie."
2. "I've been doing this for 28 years, nine of which as a junior varsity high school coach. That means I've dealt with 14-year-olds. I've never been more embarrassed to call myself a basketball coach than I am today."
3. "We lead the country in air-ball layups. If guys can't make layups, it's hard to win. You've got to invest yourself to be good. In life, you get what you deserve. If you don't put in the time, that ball ain't going to go in the basket. We've got guys that don't comprehend that. They put in the time when I make them put in the time. They don't put in the time for the love of the game. Until that doesn't change, it ain't going to get any better."
4. "If this was the NBA, we'd fine them, we'd take their money, we'd release them and say, 'Good luck with ever finding another job.' I shouldn't coach basketball ever again if this is how my team plays."
Yowza. Those are the kinds of comments a coach can make in Year One because fans want to know that that the guy with the clipboard shares their pain. After the honeymoon ends, however, those kinds of comments typically leave fans asking, "Well, why don't you fix it?"
As for the comments themselves, don't try to tell Martin that he was placing blame on his team. Yesterday, he said that the above quotes dealt with the culture of his program, not his players:
"If you know anything about me, for 28 years I have never thrown my players under the bus. I threw the culture under the bus. I threw our approach under the bus. Don't ever say I threw my players under the bus.
If you know anything about me that has never happened in 28 years. It didn't happen yesterday; it ain't happened today. The day they kick me out of here and out of this business I still won't do it. Now, our culture, our approach is no good. That has to change. But I am not throwing players under the bus. I fight for my guys. I don't kick them."
Our take? He threw both USC's culture and his players under the bus. Though there's nothing wrong with an occasional bus-throwing-undering if an entire team — and not just an individual or two — gets tossed onto the pavement. Martin isn't the first coach to rip his team in a moment of frustration. Heck, John Calipari said on Saturday that some of his players are "uncoachable." It happens, even with some of the biggest "players' coaches" out there.
But, "We'd release them and say, 'Good luck with ever finding another job,'" is indeed a rip job of Martin's players. There's no way to spin that one.
In his first season, trying to light a fire under his teams, we don't see anything wrong with Martin's tongue-lashing. Again, it was aimed at the whole and not an individual. But he'd better be careful with these kinds of remarks moving forward. It doesn't take long for fans to start blaming coaches for the underperforming athletes on their roster.

Africa Adaptation Programme
In many African countries, the impacts of climate change will affect all areas of human activity. If left unchallenged, climate change threatens to derail and even reverse development achievements on many fronts.
The causes and impacts of climate change are global in nature, however, vulnerable countries within the African continent are expected to bear the brunt of the effects, with the poorest communities facing the greatest challenges as they are the least able to adapt.
The Africa Adaptation Programme (AAP) is supporting the governments of 20 African countries to achieve transformational change designed to shift climate change adaption planning and interventions from siloed, single-sector project approaches to a comprehensive, strategic approach characterized by multiple-sector integrated planning.
The Objectives:
- Strengthening Kenya's institutional and systematic capacity and leadership to address climate change risks and opportunities through a national approach to adaptation
- Increase the capacity of African governments to absorb climate change funding
AAP consists of three main components, namely, the national projects in the 20 participating countries, the Inter-Regional Technical Support Component based in Dakar, Senegal, and the Cross Practice Initiative comprising the key practice teams from UNDP Headquarters, New York.
These projects are being implemented through National Execution (NEX) arrange¬ments by the host government and the UNDP country office, which means that the projects are executed by the national authorities while the UNDP has an assisting role.
Further information on the programme can be found here
For more information on this project: firstname.lastname@example.com
For more information about UNIDO: email@example.com
1. Dynamic, long-term planning mechanisms to manage the inherent uncertainties of climate change introduced
2. Leadership capacities and institutional frameworks to manage climate change risks and opportunities in an integrated manner at the local and national levels strengthened
3. Climate-resilient policies and measures implemented in priority sectors
4. Financing options to meet national adaptation costs expanded at the local, national, sub-regional, regional levels and international levels
5. Knowledge on adjusting national development processes to fully incorporate climate change risks and opportunities generated and shared across all levels
UNIDO Component
UNIDO has focused on pilot climate change adaptation energy interventions, policies and measures.
Component 1: Clean production of tea from micro-hydro for firewood substitution
In Kenya, there are over 100 tea factories that handle 15 million KG of green leaf or more. Every 300 KG of tea requires 1 m3 of firewood. To satisfy the demand for firewood, each factory must maintain over 300 Ha of prime land for firewood. Most of the wood is currently harvested from the forests. The aim of the project is to reduce the consumption of firewood at tea factories by empowering the community to generate electricity from micro hydro and selling it to the tea factory. The tea factory is required to commit to buying electricity from the community and reduce firewood consumption, while the community commits to reforestation especially in water catchments. 20KW of the electricity is also reserved for use by the community.
Component 2: Energy for water security
Climate change forces people to depend on tapped water. In Kenya, the greatest challenge faced by water companies is the cost of electricity for pumping water. The same water service companies also manage sewage plants, which is an energy resource that can be used for providing the electricity they lack. The aim of this project is to enhance access to piped water by providing free electricity for pumping water by generating electricity from the sewage plant and biogas and transmitting it to the water pumping station. We must also ensure that the water company commits to increased water accessibility
Component 3: Sustainability and household energy
70% of ALL energy in Kenya comes from firewood and charcoal. A further 67% of the energy for lighting comes from kerosene. The economic segments that are most vulnerable to climate change are those that depend on primary extraction e.g. agriculture, forestry and energy. The aim of this component is to provide energy alternatives for household cooking and lighting by establishing 3 CPCs with a focus on productive activities like LED lamp and green charcoal production using agricultural waste and invasive species (water hyacinth, prosopis juliflora e.t.c). The CPCs must provide significant diversification of livelihoods.

Roger Simmons | Orlando Sentinel Executive Sports Editor
9:36 AM EST, December 13, 2012
I hope you've had a chance to read the column by T.J. Simers of our sister newspaper, the Los Angeles Times, about Dwight Howard.
Simers had a long sit down with Howard to talk about how things are going with the Lakers, but Dwight kept bringing the conversation back to Orlando.
Here's sample from Simers' story:
He thinks about things all the time. He recently shut down his personality when quizzed by an Orlando reporter he believes betrayed him earlier. As tough as he wants to be, he has to overcome his own sensitivity, challenging himself on the ride home for how he handled the reporter.
"People don't know how hurt I've been, and sometimes I allow it to show," he says.
He wants to talk more about Orlando, but what do we care? He's a Laker now. But he won't stop talking.
"People don't understand," he says. "Yeah, I'm this big guy, but I also have a big heart. All I wanted to do was put Orlando on the map, but then I see all this stuff being written; I had to stop reading Twitter and doing Facebook. It was bad for my soul.
"I told a friend I was going to come back this year and not fool with anybody, stay to myself and not do anything else. But who am I kidding? That's not me."With Dwight's obsession in talking about Orlando, we have to ask: Do you think Dwight is homesick for the Magic?
The Lakers have been struggling, and it doesn't appear that Kobe Bryant and Dwight are best buds. Meanwhile, the young Magic are staying competitive and look like they are having fun.
