During a press event on January 15, 2013, Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, announced their latest product, called Graph Search. The product is in very early beta right now, and many people, including me, have gained access by requesting it on the Introducing Graph Search page on Facebook.
What is Graph Search?
Facebook says you can use Graph Search to find more of the people, photos, places and interests you're looking for through your friends and connections. After about a week of testing, I can confirm this is true. I have spent hours testing a variety of searches, trying to figure out both how business owners can optimize their pages to rank higher in Graph Search and how they can use it to find prospects.
Graph Search has the potential to change the search game, and eventually they will turn it into a revenue generating product to keep their investors happy. In the meantime, though, take a look at the new layout of the top blue bar once you enable Graph Search.
What do you notice?
Where it says "Search for people, places and things" is the new search box. It's a very different look than the traditional empty white box, and may not be obvious to the average user at first. Clicking in this area drops down a few suggested searches, such as my friends, photos of my friends, and restaurants nearby.
What else do you notice, though?
All the notification and navigation icons and links have moved to the far right side, directly above the ads on the right side of the page, and exactly the same width.
Coincidence? I say no.
When we go to Facebook on the web, our eyes are drawn to the red notification icons. By moving them directly above the ads, they are drawing our eyes toward those ads, which will lead to more clicks for advertisers. It's working because I never paid any attention to Facebook ads before I got Graph Search. Now I'm noticing more ads than ever!
Am I right?
My friend Jonathan Brewer thinks so.

Listening to the opening moments of Smyer, or even during the terrific and exuberant title track, the thought of a young Paul Westerberg and younger Tommy Stinson comes to mind. "Cherry Chapstick" is a lovable little Midwestern rock gem despite the fact this band is from New York. Go figure. Nonetheless "Cadillac" is another strong pop song (think Afghan Whigs) that bobs and weaves thanks to some great work from the guitar and rhythm section. The intensity and soulfulness of the album comes through with every song, whether it's the winding "Late Night" or the run-of-the-mill "F Song" which doesn't drop any F-bombs. Smyer rarely drop the ball or add filler to the proceedings, this despite the fact two five-minute numbers including "Last Car Leaving" are plopped in the middle of the album. There are several standouts here as Smyer don't reinvent the wheel musically, just put some spit and polish on the hubcaps with "A Million Faces" (again think Afghan Whigs) and the airtight "Soul Crusher" and the dated-dubbed "Reaganomics".

14-Year-Old Charged After Authorities Said He Led Them On Multi-County High Speed Chase
10TV News obtained video on Monday showing the danger authorities said a 14-year-old driver put himself and others in during a high speed chase..
Police said the chase started in Bellefontaine. The driver then made his way through West Liberty before finally ending in Urbana on Saturday morning.
According to Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers, a 14-year-old was behind the wheel of a minivan speeding southbound along U.S. Route 68 at speeds up to 100 miles per hour.
10TV News did not immediately name the minor accused in the chase.
Just south of Bellefontaine, troopers put down stop sticks, which flattened the minivan's front tires.
The stop sticks did not stop the driver, though, who kept driving on metal rims, according to troopers.
When the minivan approached the town of West Liberty, officers there also tried to put out stop sticks, but they were not quick enough.
"They were able to get them out of the trunk and throw them out, but they missed the vehicle they were trying to stop," Chief Shane Oelker of the West Liberty Police Department.
Oelker said that no one was injured or struck during the chase.
"Watching the video, there doesn't appear to be any close calls, but that's still not something you want to take a chance on," Oelker said. "It is dangerous. It puts not only the officers in danger, but the public that's innocent."
About 15 minutes into the chase, the minivan pulled off the road into a the field of a local airport. Investigators said the 14-year-old driver circled around, attempting to get back on the roadway.
According to the dash cam video, the driver tried to squeeze in between two law enforcement vehicles and smashed into a West Liberty cruiser's front bumper.
The driver then tried to run, but was taken into custody.
The driver faces a long list of charges, including fleeing, assault, criminal damaging and driving without a proper license.

The man in charge of Anthony Weiner's campaign is stepping aside in the wake of new revelations that the candidate exchanged lewd online messages with several women. But Weiner says he's staying in the race to become mayor of New York.
Danny Kedem, who joined Weiner's campaign in early spring, resigned over the weekend, the candidate said on Sunday.
"We have an amazing staff, but this isn't about the people working on the campaign. It's about the people we're campaigning for," Weiner said after speaking at a Brooklyn church, according to The Associated Press.
On Thursday, Weiner and his wife held a news conference to acknowledge the latest sexting scandal in which the candidate said he'd exchanged messages with up to three women since last summer, a full year after he resigned from Congress amid a similar "sexting" scandal.
"I can't tell you absolutely what someone else is going to consider inappropriate or not," he told reporters.
Weiner, who before the scandal broke had been leading his main Democratic primary opponent, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, has dropped 9 percentage points behind her in a poll conducted following last week's revelations.

Tank 7even
In a world that requires labels and genres; Tank 7even is a 5 piece folk/country/acoustic/rock band. It includes; 3 adults, 2 kids, 8 instruments, 6 instrument cases, 4 plectrums, 3 tuners, a couple of vocal chords, and a pile of simple, passionate songs about life.
Tank 7even is driven by the life long music passions of Gary Dobbin.
Gary has been writing, performing and recording music for 32 years, long enough to be now playing and recording with his kids Franca (14) and Bill (11); add friends and collaborators Nick and Doug; and brother in law Geoff, and you have an eclectic group of friends and family that make up Tank 7even.
Tank 7even are: Gary Dobbin - Guitar/Banjo/Piano/Vocals
Franca Dobbin – Acoustic Bass/Vocals
Bill Dobbin – Drums
Nick Vane – Guitar/Trumpet
Geoff Wishart – Viola
Doug Halstrom - Mandolin/Banjo
Gary Dobbin started his musical journey in late 1978...wrote his first song in 1979; recorded his first album early 1981, at home on the family stereo; performed 3 original songs for the first time in public at 'The Stables' folk club in Perth 1982; Performed his first full solo gig in 1983; continued to write and perform through the eighties until 1991, when he and a close friend Mark Seymour...(No, not the Mark Seymour of Hunters and Collectors)started their first all original band, Arid in Esperance; recorded their first studio Ep Poison Creek, getting airplay on the local radio station, Radio 747 and a couple of offers to tour the east coast, which unfortunately didn't take place. Since then, collaborations/bands that have recorded albums include; The Golebiowski Brothers, Frogs in the toilet Bowl, Sacred Bleeding Hearts (who won through to regional finals of the Next Big Thing competition in WA, and had airplay on ABC radio), Woodybrew (Airplay on ABC Radio), The Sid Jones Experiment, Wellbartlet (Airplay on RTR Fm Perth) and most recently (the) DEAD KELLYs (airplay on ABC, Hot FM, RTR FM radio stations; Nannup and Margaret River Wine Festivals. This band is still together and planning future shows over the summer period). Gary has his own home studio called the Zincroom, which has produced about 12 albums over the last 10 years.
Franca and Bill Dobbin have grown up with a music studio as their back yard...they are both self taught musicians with Franca an accomplished guitarist, Bass player, singer (performing solo for the first time this year at the Nannup Music Festival), and Bill on Drums and percussion. Bill played his first festival as fill in drummer for (the) Dead Kellys at age 9. They are both new to, but competent, piano players.
Nick Vane has been playing music most of his life having studied music at a younger age. His main instrument is the trumpet, however, has taught himself the guitar and is now a more than "good" guitarist. Nick is a teacher at Nannup District High School and a member of the band Woodybrew.
Geoff Wishart has been playing the viola his whole life, playing with the University of WA Orchestra, the Bunbury youth Orchestra and Indroorpilly Community Orchestra. Geoff is the proprietor of the Nannup Hardware Store.
Doug Halstrom has been playing music his whole life. A very talented mandolin player, Doug is also a very good guitarist and banjo player and an incredible song writer. Doug is the main man behind the band Woodybrew and has had the pleasure of jamming with some of Western Australia's best blue grass musicians.
Tank 7even have been together for three and a half years, performing at the last three Nannup Music Festivals, and numerous gigs at their local Nannup Hotel, and recently, Perth. Their debut 12 track CD "Little Hoss" is not just an example of Gary Dobbins song writing/storytelling, but a compelling example their friendship, musicship, and obvious joy they have playing music together. It's easy to see why they are well received where ever they play...
Written By: Gary Dobbin
Well my father's father's father's
Cleared the land with horse and axe.
And he passed down with his stories
on the back of his broken heart.
But he kept on telling, his family for years
That this country won't beat him, reduce him to tears
That victory was the day
They moved on out of the shed...into a house.
Well my father's father took
Over this wheatbelt land
Took on some good years
And expanded like he had planned.
And he kept on telling, he's family for years
That this country's been broken, reduced to tears
That victory had been taken
So they moved on out of the house...and into town.
Well my father took over this
wheatbelt farm from grandpa.
Cause his father died fighting
The great world war with Japan.
But his grandpa kept on telling him, year after year
That this country is dying, it reduced him to tears.
That victory won't be taken,
So they moved on out of the town...back to the house, that's falling down.
Well, you don't have to drive far
To see the soil turn to dust
And you don't have to go far back
To know that the history hurts
But this country drags me back, has done for years
And I don't understand why I go back in tears,
But victory won't be taken
As I drive my truck from east to west, and west to east...and back again.

I always wondered why the hills were green
Or was it something i was told, so we would all agree
And I would hear lots of things that i could not see
And someone told me what it was, so i had to believe
It was true
I always thought that my memories were strong
But hearing the stories come back to me, I think I got it wrong
And god was supposed to look down on me
But when my father died young, I just couldn't believe
It was true
But the truth is hidden in the lines on your skin,
Like the internal bleeding when you're bro-ken
I always dreamed that love would prevail
So i refused to listen to the broken hearted tale
And I've tried so hard, not to listen to their hymns
But they've finally beaten me, so i have to believe
It is true
But the truth is hidden in the lines on your skin,
Like the internal bleeding when you're bro-ken
It was true…

If I had the time,
I like to dance the night away with you,
If I had the time,
I'd love to spend my time reading with you,
If I had the time,
I'd love to lie awake dreaming with you,
If I had the time, if I had the time.
If I had the time, I'd love to do it all again with you.
If I had the time,
I'd love to make the world a safer place,
If I had the time,
I'd love to build your castle and be your prince,
If I had the time,
I'd love to be the footprint that you seek,
If I had the time, if I had the time.
If I had the time, I'd love to do it all again for you
well; it's been seconds, minutes, hours and days,
weeks, years, a millennium.
It's been the car, the job, money, the house, the kids, the phone, the sporting club,
It's the cleaning, mowing, gutters, garden and pool.
If I had the time, I'd love to do it all again for you
If I had the time,
I'd love to see the world through your eyes.
If I had the time,
I'd love to listen to the tears you cry.
If I had the time,
I'd love to be available all the time
If I had the time, if I had the time.
If I had the time, I'd love to do it all again for
If I had the time, I'd love to make the world better for
If I had the time, I'd love to do it all again for you

My hands are going out, going out tonight
Looking for somewhere, somewhere to hide
Inside your promises, inside your sleeves
Warm woolen gloves, or inside your needs
My hands are lost, inside my life
Looking for love, or someway to cry
Someway to smile, someway to hope
I don't know how, but they need to survive
So cup your hands up to your mouth
And breath out, it will warm them they say
So cup your hands, in a loved ones embrace
And breath out, feel safe tonight
And today, and then the night.
My hands found something, something tonight
That given a chance, being cold you can die
So they came out of hiding, into the light
And being together, is the only way to fly
So cup your hands up to your mouth
And breath out, it will warm them they say
So cup your hands, in a loved ones embrace
And breath out, feel safe tonight
And today, and then the night.
And today, and then the night.
And today, and then the night.

All those walls, you cant climb
They're in your yard, block out the sun
And the fears, your on your own
Got you like, a loaded gun
So fake you're innocent, fake you're blind
The other side, here it comes
All that air, you cant breath
Broken glass, leave it here
And the sun, you pretend to see
Got you like, a loaded gun
So fake you're pretty, fake you're wise
This is the last time, your truth will lie
So fake you're innocent, fake you're wise
Here come your others, they're lost in time
All that life, you cant hide
Is in your heart, crushed with hurt
And the sea, you wish to drown
Got you like, a loaded gun
So fake you're innocent, fake you're wise
This is the last time, your truth will lie
So fake you're pretty, fake you're blind
The other side, your truth will lie

Little Hoss was recorded in a 4hr session at Satellite Studio Perth WA, then produced, mixed and added to by Gary Dobbin in his home studio, The Zincroom. It was intended to capture the simple honest sounds of the band playing and jamming live, thus; Drums, Bass, Guitar, vocals and backing vocals were recorded together live, then additional tracks (Geoff, Doug and Nick) added, (as live as possible), later.
All attempts were made to leave as small as possible footprint on the environment...an objective they feel they achieved by using all the original tracks recorded and recording additional tracks as quickly and efficiently as possible. They have used part recycled card cover, non toxic inks and no plastic. Keeping studio time down, and recording additional tracks in Nannup, reduced the need for travel.
The band is also planning to sell as much as possible digitally, and hope to limit their CD printing.
All songs are written, produced, mixed and mastered by Gary Dobbin.
Very special thanks to; Darren at Satellite, for his friendship, generosity and professional assistance; Denise, for years of friendship and support; Ken, for his love of music and life; Pete for his guitar work on Truth and Love song No 16, (and for having such big hands); and...Jim Dobbin is a good man.
The album cover has been designed to look and feel like a record cover, even the CD has been printed as such. It also includes a 6 page booklet with the song lyrics.

Happiness is having a good neck pillow
I'd like to, in no particular order, introduce you to my new best friends.
My neck pillow. Originally purchased for a loooong Amtrak ride to visit family in the Midwest, this pillow has morphed into a regular companion at night.
I can't sleep on my stomach or back for safety reasons and sometimes I get tired of sleeping on my side. This pillow allows me to sit upright against a stack of pillows to read, watch TV or sleep without hurting my neck.
I may have laughed at people who used these things before. I'm sorry. This thing is amazing.
My stretchy pants.
These are a summer blessing. I hit the Goodwill jackpot ($2) with the black pair and got the gray pants with the super cute waistline at Motherhood Maternity in Mesa Mall.
I looked for months for other used, cropped, cotton, stretchy pants with no success so I had to buy new. MAMA NEEDED CROPPED LOUNGE PANTS WITH ELASTIC WAISTS, OK!?!
I put these on when I get home from work and live in them All. Weekend. Long.
(I bought two of the same gray pants — the second was 50% off — so I could wash one but always have another ready. This is the type of planning and organization that will make me a great mother, right?)
This book.
I checked it out at the library, but I'm making mental notes, taking physical notes and will request it again in like a month — even though the thought of wearing flared jeans like the cover model makes me embarassed about what's coming...
My maternity leggings with that stretchy panel that goes over a belly or folds under it.
I bought these in black and brown at Motherhood Maternity because I couldn't find them used. They are long so I can scrunch them up in summer and pull them down in winter.
I never in a million years thought I would wear pants like this. Look at them and look at me in them. It's the opposite of stylish.
However, when I pull that panel up and over my belly and live my life, it makes everything a little better. And that's what friends are for.

2. Danica has been sick. Very sick. She started having explosive diarrhea on Saturday. I'll spare you the gory details; but, I will say that I have to buy a pair of new black flats for work while I'm on vacation. I think it's finally settling down. She's on two prescription medications, and she's lost about a pound. On top of all of this, she also got bit by a bug and it created a hot spot on her neck that we've had to Neosporin and wrap up nightly. My poor baby is falling apart! I keep telling her she needs to feel better before Santa Puppy visits.
3. I keep sitting down to write an actual blog post, and I keep getting sidetracked. I promise one is coming. This week, even. And I will publish it. I won't just let it sit there and float for three weeks and then delete it. (This point is more of a personal note/promise to myself. I'm trying to get motivated, because there are things I want to write about.)
4. The walls at work are thin, and they don't quite go up to the ceiling. Today, I heard an interesting conversation. Someone was telling a coworker about how her husband has a child with another woman - and that child is 17 days younger than her child. Yes, you read that right: 17 DAYS. Of course, the coworker asked how that was possible, and she said (matter-of-factly), "He cheated on me." Aside from the obvious question of, Would you stay with the bastard?, I'd also like to ask, Is this something you would discuss with your coworkers? or How much information is too much information? This coming from a person who has openly told people about her infertility at work after receiving questions regarding if and when Joey and I will have children.
And there you have it: the most random collection of what is going through my head at this moment.

NewswireToday - /newswire/ -
Mountain View, CA, United States, 2009/03/09 - New analysis from Frost & Sullivan, North American Hosted IP Telephony Service Markets, finds that there were close to one million installed hosted IP telephony lines at the end of 2008 and expects this number to grow to about 3.6 million lines in 2014.
Integration with other unified communications (UC) applications (chat, presence, conferencing) and business applications such as CRM and ERP in communications-enabled business processes (CEBP) will provide the most opportunity for the hosted IP telephony market, which is being challenged by the economic downturn. These integrations will not only benefit end-users that are looking for a competitive edge, but also communication vendors and service providers that are hoping to increase market share and revenue.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (conferencing.frost.com), North American Hosted IP Telephony Service Markets, finds that there were close to one million installed hosted IP telephony lines at the end of 2008 and expects this number to grow to about 3.6 million lines in 2014.
If you are interested in a virtual brochure, which provides a brief synopsis of the research and a table of contents, then send an email to Christina Alfaro, Corporate Communications, at christina.alfaro[.]frost.com, with your full name, company name, title, telephone number, company email address, company website, city, state and country. Upon receipt of the above information, a brochure will be sent to you by email.
"Small businesses will continue to be attracted to hosted IP telephony offerings primarily for cost-efficient voice communications, although some of them will also choose a hosted offering for the ability to gain access to a complete UC package from a single provider," explains Frost & Sullivan Global Program Director Elka Popova. "Medium and large businesses will also appreciate the economies provided by hosted IP telephony, but will seek such solutions mostly so they can focus on core business processes and gain access to applications and capabilities that they can test without making a capital investment."
While integration with other applications can help the hosted IP telephony market plough ahead, significant technology enhancements to premise-based solutions and extensive private branch exchange (PBX) vendor channels present significant barriers to further market penetration. IP telephony vendors will have to develop astute channel strategies since most market participants are small, next-generation providers with limited geographic presence and service support capabilities, and with no established customer base or brand-name recognition.
Service providers should, therefore, seek to expand and diversify their channels and strengthen relationships; however, these moves will need to be based on specific portfolio requirements. Meanwhile, the low barriers to entry will cause the North American market to remain extremely fragmented. The incumbent local exchange carriers (LECs) are reluctant to grab larger market shares due to the fear of cannibalizing legacy service revenues and limited demand for next-gen hosted telephony services among their existing Centrex base.
The competitive landscape is also likely to become increasingly diverse with competitive LECs (CLECs), software as a service (SaaS)/hosted application providers, value-added resellers (VARs) and system integrators (SIs) competing for a share of a slowly growing market. In such a scenario, channel support will determine each provider's chances for success.
"In order to ensure extensive customer reach and superior customer support, service providers need to develop stronger relationships with various VARs, SIs, and agents that may include real estate companies, IT consultants, and moving companies," notes Popova. "Further, providers should seek to develop an eco-system of partnerships to jointly enhance market awareness and be able to offer customers a range of interoperable solutions and capabilities."
Telephony providers should cooperate with hosted contact center, email, customer relationship management (CRM), Web 2.0 and other communication and business application providers. Service providers may choose to adopt diverse business strategies. For instance, some may focus on businesses seeking inexpensive voice communication packages, while others may choose to target businesses that seek advanced communication solutions such as UC, where application integration provides considerable productivity benefits.
Providers could also take advantage of merger and acquisition opportunities based on complementary technologies, expertise or channels, since consolidation can help improve customer awareness, margins and the value proposition of hosted IP telephony.
North American Hosted IP Telephony Service Markets is part of the Enterprise Communications Growth Partnership Service program, which also includes research in the following markets: world enterprise telephony platforms, extending PBX functionalities to mobile devices, world unified communications platforms, and North American VoIP trunking service markets. All research services included in subscriptions provide detailed market opportunities and industry trends that have been evaluated following extensive interviews with market participants.

Michele Pirro claims a popular first Moto2 World Championship victory for Gresini, two weeks after the death of the team's MotoGP rider Marco Simoncelli.

Michele Pirro has given Gresini a fitting end to the Moto2 World Championship season by claiming his first win of the season in Valencia.
Riding a Moriwaki adorned with the image of the late Marco Simoncelli, who tragically died competing for Gresini Honda in the MotoGP class at Sepang, Pirro assumed the lead on lap six and didn't look back, despite a burst of rain in the closing stages.
Pirro started from pole position, though it was his team-mate Yuki Takahashi that was the quicker off the line to snatch the lead, ahead of Dominique Aegerter, Mika Kallio, the fast-starting Xavier Simeon, Bradley Smith and Pirro.
Aided by Smith sliding off course on lap two, Pirro steadily worked his way up the order to move into second position behind Takahashi, which duly became the lead when the Japanese rider crashed heavily on lap six.
From here, Pirro built his momentum to extend his advantage, leaving behind an entertaining four-way tussle for second between Aegerter, Kallio, Simeon and Yonny Hernandez, who accelerated to the back of the group with a series of strong laps.
With each rider disputing the position, the pack would begin to split into Hernandez and Kallio disputing second, while Aegerter and Simeon battled it out for fourth.
However, with drizzling conditions getting increasingly difficult as the race entered the latter stages, Hernandez - eyeing his first podium at Moto2 level -, ran on at turn ten, sending him behind both Aegerter and Simeon.
Sensing a renewed opportunity at a headline result, Aegerter chased down Kallio in the final laps to battle it out for second position, but would eventually settle for third behind the Finn. A first podium for Kallio in what has been a tough first Moto2 season, it is also a maiden rostrum for Aegerter, who has established himself as one of the year's surprise packages on the Technomag CIP Suter in 2011.
Back up front, Pirro, who came into the weekend 16th in the standings, was crossing the line as a dominant victor, the Italian giving Fausto Gresini an emotional victory just two weeks after the tragic events in Malaysia that shook the motorsport world.
The melee over the final laps resulted in some unexpected results just behind, with Anthony West showing his prowess in tricky conditions yet again to claim an excellent fourth for MZ, while Kenny Noyes would break his 2011 points' duck in remarkable style by taking fifth.
Colombian Hernandez, who is tipped to be moving to MotoGP aboard a BQR CRT machine in 2011, was a frustrated sixth, ahead of Tech 3 duo Mike di Meglio and Simeon, the latter Belgian losing ground in the closing stages.
Max Neukirchner made it a fine day for MZ in ninth, ahead of Julian Simon, while Andrea Iannone sealed third in the standings by finishing 11th, compared to Alex de Angelis in 12th.
Elsewhere, newly crowned champion Stefan Bradl suffered only his second DNF of the season after crashing out on lap five, while Britons Smith and Scott Redding finished well outside the points after taking separate tumbles in the early stages.
Race results:
1. Pirro (Moriwaki) 46m 22.205s
2. Kallio (Suter) +6.150s
3. Aergerter (Suter) +6.363s
4. West (MZ-RE) +8.843
5. Noyes (FTR) +9.229s
6. Y. Hernandez (FTR) +9.926s
7. Di Meglio (Tech 3) +10.115
8. Simeon (Tech 3) +10.385s
9. Neukirchner (MZ) +13.018s
10. Simon (Suter) +13.365ss
23. Smith (Tech 3) +1m 15.394s
30. Redding (Suter) +1 lap

The across-the-board spending cuts just happened on March 1 which means that the cuts will impact most federal agencies including the Federal Aviation Administration, whose annual budget will be reduced by over 5 percent.
What's the impact to you future air traveler? Unfortunately, these cuts will trickle down to consumers in the form of fewer flights, according to the National Air Traffic Control Association leading to an increase in fares.
Consider these tips to save on airfare in the coming spring and summer months:
1. Take an Early Flight
The time you fly can impact the cost of your flight significantly. Waking up before dawn or catching a late-night red eye may get you the cheapest flight of the day. Here is an example: a departing Southwest flight from Denver to Spokane at 8:05 a.m. costs $148, while the flight that leaves at 10:20 a.m. costs nearly $50 more ($196).
2. Look for Discount Gift Cards
Pick up a few discount travel gift cards from sites like GiftCardGranny.com to save on airfare. For instance, you can find discounts of up to 15 percent on Frontier Airlines gift cards and 8 percent on American Airlines.
3. Shop for Flights on Tuesday
According to FareCompare.com, booking flights at 3:00 p.m. ET Tuesday afternoon is your best chance to find the cheapest airfare. Since more airlines bid for flights on Mondays and companies are busy booking their business travelers, less expensive flights abound on Tuesday and Wednesday.
4. Book a Stop Over
Look for short connection windows but make sure there's enough time to catch the next flight in case of a delay. Also, be sure the amount of savings is enough to justify the hassle of a layover.
5. Travel Midweek
Flight prices peak around the weekend as business travelers fly home and leisure travelers escape for a short getaway or vacation. A departing flight from Denver to Las Vegas costs $83.99 when leaving on Wednesday, while the return flight on Sunday rings in at $205. Depart one day later on Monday and the fare drops to $124.
6. Track Flight Price Drops
Some airlines like Southwest will issue you an airline credit if your itinerary drops in price after you book it. Yapta.com will alert you when your itinerary drops in price so you can request a credit or book the trip if you're holding out for a better deal.
7. Compare Fares from Different Airports
You might assume smaller airports with limited flights will always have costlier airfare, but this is not always the case. With limited schedules, these airports can't accommodate all travelers, making select flights and trips in less demand and therefore less expensive.
8. Search One Way Flights
When you're flying to and from the same city, you may limit your search to roundtrip flights. However, booking one way flights on different airlines may get you a better deal in some cases. Plus, it's easier to redeem miles on one-way flights because the cost of one leg is significantly less than the cost of a roundtrip flight.
9. Don't Your Check Bags
You can save $50 for a roundtrip flight if you don't check a bag and even more if you were planning to check multiple bags. Pack light with a carry on or pick an airline like Southwest or JetBlue that offers a free checked bag (or two, in the case of Southwest).
10. Book Your Flight with Airlines Directly
I always recommend comparing prices and schedules with a search engine like Kayak, but don't forget to search airlines separately. Airlines like Southwest don't allow their airfare to be posted to third-party sites, so you could overlook a better deal. What's more, buying directly from the airline will reduce the hassle associated with dealing with a third party in cases of flight changes or cancellations.

What goes better with a poolside barbeque than prosecco? Crisp, refreshing, and sure to be a crowd pleaser with its beautiful green apple and lime flavors.

87 pts.Wine Enthusiast: 6/1/2006
An enjoyable bubbly with good creamy froth, white peach, mineral and hard candy tones that are nicely balanced and spread throughout. It has a consistency and a snappy, crisp close.

87 pts.Wine Enthusiast: 12/15/2005
The best bubbly in the Zonin portfolio. The nose is yeasty, with moderate richness and enough apple and citrus to register. The palate features green melon, apple and toast, while the finish is mildly yeasty and fairly full. Satisfying as it fills the mouth.

86 pts. Wine Enthusiast: July, 2008
Here is a very clean and pristine Prosecco Brut with measured but distinct notes of white peach, acacia flower and chopped kiwi. The wine tastes creamy and slightly sweet with chewy peach flavors. It make a perfect aperitif wine.

86 pts.Wine Enthusiast: 11/29/2004
Slightly floral and citrusy on the nose, with fresh, grapy flavors and a soft, creamy mouthfeel. A bit simple, but a welcome apertif with a mouthwatering finish.

Every season is a drinking season for us, but Summer is particularly inebriating because, well, it's hot. But we haven't experienced the swelling heat like many of our friends on the East Coast. How lucky are we to be in mild So Cal weather? Very lucky, but we're not bragging. And hey, we have congestion and smog to add to our heat, so there's always a trade-off with our mild weather!
After a long work day when we're in town, we spent quite a bit of time in the backyard pulling weeds, trimming excess branches and building up a hefty thirst. Normally we have quite a collection of ice cold bottles of Rose in the fridge, but mixing it up with summer cocktails keeps us inspired and energized to weed some more.
As of late, the mint seeds we sprinkled in the garden is taking off beautifully. An abundance of fresh mint in mojitos cocktails is always a fabulous Summer quencher, but after pulling up a few garden strawberries and an inspiration from The Berry Bible, we changed cocktail directions a bit and made strawberry mojitos.
For berry lovers theres a great new reference and recipe book, appropriately called The Berry Bible. Every single page in this thorough book by author Janie Hibler is helpful for anyone wanting to expand their repertoire for berries, particularly to those to worship berries. Thus, The Berry Bible title.
Classic berries such as strawberries, raspberries and blueberries are covered in depth, but extra commentary on unique berries make this book even more fascinating. Buffalo berries, cloud berries and josta berries are just a few examples of unique fruits to school you to a higher level of berry knowledge. The Berry Bible doesn't have any photographs, but rather, the valuable information, fresh recipes and interesting topics make it a worthy reference to have on your bookshelf.
We found this strawberry mojito in The Berry Bible and were a bit hesitant to stray from the beloved, classic mojito. We even add true Cuban rum to our mojito cocktails. That's how true our to their origins our mojitos are. But wow, we were really pleased with how wonderful the drinks were with some crushed strawberries. Strawberry mojitos are fabulous!
We've found a new favorite, the strawberry mojito. Classic mojitos with a few muddled strawberries and bright lime juice adds a fresh, fruity spectacle to the cocktail. They're also beauty in a glass too with the combinations of crushed strawberries and mint leaves. Strawberry mojitos are perfect for our new Summer cocktail repertoire and we can't wait to debut them at our garden party next month!

Bishop Claudio Gimenez of Caacupe said the Church in Paraguay would officially respond to the attacks on the Church last week by Paraguayan President Nicanor Duarte.
Bishop Gimenez said the executive committee of the bishops' conference "promised to study the case and issue a response. I don't want to interfere with that and I think it is the right thing to do at this time." "It's important the executive committee takes the action it feels is necessary," he added.
Asked about the remaining portion of the president's term in office, Bishop Gimenez said, "We hope that at least in this last part of his term he will take advantage of the time and fulfill his promises."
"There are many things he promised and have not yet been carried out. He should keep his word, that is very important for our people to keep believing; otherwise, promises are made, they are not kept, and that leads to much frustration and discouragement, and it unleashes a lack of belief and trust in authorities," Bishop Gimenez said.

Dip your toes in the Aeolian Islands
White-washed villages, honeysuckle-swathed paths and a phenomenal natural fireworks display: Sicily is our sizzling-hot secret. For a dose of barefoot island glamour, these stylish, rustic Aeolian Islands have an innocence about them which we can't get enough of. And there's one to suit every mood: the uber-glam island of Panarea, the charming island of Salina, and then there's Stromboli, which blasts florescent lava into the sky every 20 minutes.
Crumbling grandeur in Palermo
Start in this unpolished gem of a city with its crumbling architecture, century-old churches, and vibrant eateries. Staying in the elegant Villa Igiea, you'll get under the skin of this city with our expert guides, who'll take you straight to the un-touristy nitty gritty: intriguing churches, historical boulevards and loud, colourful markets. For a spot of surfing, head to the sheltered bays of San Vito lo Capo, set below high-pointed limestone cliffs and a town with a deliciously Arabic flavour. What you'd expect? No. Utterly charming? Most definitely.Read more
Salina: "the green island"
Now, for some serious relaxation, escape to the isle of Salina: the greenest and most laid-back island. Stay in the stunning Capo Faro, zip around rugged hills on the back of a Vespa, meander along its two extinct conical volcanoes, and head for the beautiful bay of Rinella with its black sands and pink, white and blue houses. Total bliss. Hungry? The capers here are an absolute must, and you should also try the fresh fish and sugary Malvasia dessert.
Panarea: "the jet-set island"
Up for a party? Your next stop is Panarea, nicknamed "la dolce" (the sweet one). It's the most exclusive island, buzzing with chic bars and restaurants with an effortlessly cool, rustic vibe. The port of San Pietro has white washed houses surrounded by hot-pink bougainvillea and fragrant lime trees, where you'll stay at the strikingly sexy Raya Hotel. Here you're a short walk from Panarea's other sweet spot: spectacular, secluded sun-kissed coves.
Stromboli: "the volcano island"
And finally it's off by ferry (or helicopter, if Panarea has rubbed off on you) to the fiery shores of Stromboli, where you'll stay in a classic hotel with sea views. This tipi-shaped island is home to Europe's most active volcano, which is where the magic happens. Take a sunset boat ride, and when the engine is cut at dusk you'll hear the roaring eruptions and witness the spectacular natural fireworks. Think burning molten geyser-type blasts. To get even closer, climb to the crater's mouth by night for the best view of these unique explosions. Truly phenomenal.

I really have a thing for the hidden identity. When you hide a persons face,
the picture get so much more interesting - 'who is that person', 'what is she
thinking about', 'what does she look like' and so on. I can only say -
the beauty of the obscure.

It seems to us: Silence is golden in Hamburg, dressing for cash and glorious summer is back
The haunting wail of a train whistle in the night is a romantic reminder of an earlier era. Unless those trains are blasting past your house 80 times each day, disrupting sleep and daily activities.
Hamburg residents have been trying for a dozen years to silence those horns. Tuesday their work will pay off when 24-hour "quiet zones" take effect at rail crossings on Cloverbank and Rogers roads.
Traffic devices are in place to prevent vehicles from driving around lowered gates, meaning trains will no longer have to sound two long blasts followed by one short and another long as they approach those crossings.
Happy dreams, Hamburg.
Here's food for thought for all of you who get dressed each day without a thought of getting paid for it.
A lawsuit by some of Orchard Park's police officers demanded back pay for the time it takes to put on their uniforms. The attorney representing the town's officers reportedly said it could take them 15 minutes before and after a shift to change clothes, up to a half an hour a day. So, they should get paid. To get dressed.
The case was settled before trial for $210,000, with $72,000 going to 26 current and retired police officers, each collecting between $100 and $3,300 in wages, including back pay for time they spent putting on uniforms. Lawyers, of course, made out the best, collecting $138,000 of the settlement.
This is the day, long sought but bittersweet. This morning at 6:51, the sun reached its northern limit and, with that, summer arrives once again. It comes every year, like clockwork, but for many weeks during this year's long and unlamented winter, it somehow seemed unlikely ever to return.
But here it is. The summer solstice has arrived, signalling a season of warmth, charcoal grills, swimming pools – and days that slowly grow shorter, leading us back to …
No. We won't go there. Instead, we'll concentrate tonight, at Canalside, where the Tedeschi Trucks Bank will usher in the season in style. In a couple of weeks comes the Fourth of July and its sparkling celebrations.
It's summer. Savor the days. Catch a firefly. Toast a marshmallow. Pretend it'll never end.

It's merely an analogy to turning a page - a leaf - in a book. It implies a new start to something. It must be as old as books themselves.

Nip the Buds, Shoot the Kids
Michael Wood writes:
Perhaps all books are messages from other times and places, even the ones written yesterday and just down the road. But these three works by Kenzaburo Oë, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1994, have an unusual flavour of missives cast into the sea long ago, only now arriving on our island beach. Nip the Buds, Shoot the Kids was published in Japan in 1958, and is now translated for the first time. A Personal Matter was published in Japan in 1964, and in an American translation, here reprinted, in 1969. Hiroshima Notes was published in Japan in 1965 and first translated, in this version, in 1981. So the youngest of the books is thirty years old, half Oë's own age. The effect of reading them now is not to make us feel we have been there before, because we haven't, even if we have been to Japan and read other Japanese novels. The effect, on me at least, was to make me try to remember these books' English and American coevals, whatever it was we were reading in the wake of Sartre and Camus, and before the Sixties became the Sixties. William Golding, Iris Murdoch, Saul Bellow, Bernard Malamud, Thomas Pynchon, who else?

NEW YORK (Sep. 1)
A new group calling itself the Argentine National Socialist Front has circulated a letter in Buenos Aires claiming responsibility for the bombings last Friday of two Buenos Aires synagogues and a drugstore, according to reports received here from Buenos Aires.
The letter, which proclaimed an all-out war against a "Jewish-Bolshevik plutocracy," and which blamed Argentina's 600,000-member Jewish community for the country's growing economic problems, was denounced by an Argentine government spokesman as the work of "an unimportant minority." The spokesman also was quoted as saying the new group was "trying to create fear and a fictitious state of instability to frighten away foreign investment."
The letter, signed FNSA, the group's initials in Spanish, said the Friday bombings of the Jewish institutions marked the opening of a campaign of "diverse punitive operations against important elements of international Judaism." The letter also said the group was thus identifying "those who are principally responsible for the Argentine disaster and national disintegration" and that its "war" would end only with "the extermination of the Jewish-Bolshevik plutocracy."
The government spokesman also said yesterday that a decision could be expected within the next two weeks on demands for a government ban on distribution of bound reprints of Hitler's speeches, distributed by Editorial Milicia, a publishing house which also has issued reprints of the notorious Protocols of the Elders of Zion. The complaints were made by the Argentine Catholic Church through Criteria, its monthly magazine, and by the DAIA, the central representative agency of Argentine Jewry.
The government spokesman was quoted as saying "we agree that something must be done to avoid this type of publication that tries to divide the people and create conflict."
A liberal Buenos Aires paper, L'Opinion, which published the NFSA letter, was also the target of an attempted bombing last Friday, according to its Jewish publisher, Jacobo Timerman. He said in an article in L'Opinion yesterday that his life had now been threatened by both the extreme right and left.
Meanwhile, the DAIA reported yesterday that its office in Cordoba had protested to authorities against the bombing of the Sephardic Club building in Cordoba. The blast caused heavy damage to the building. No casualties were reported.
The DAIA, also providing details on the bombings of the two synagogues in Buenos Aires the explosives were placed outside the Murillo Street Temple and the Sephardic Community Center on Camagargo Street. The blasts caused damage to the main gates of the synagogues and to the masonry and broke all the windows in the two synagogues. One blast tore a hole more than a yard wide in a wall of the Murillo Street synagogue. Police were investigating the bombings.
The DAIA said in its protest that the bombings demonstrated criminal intentions of elements seeking to terrorize the Jewish community. The DAIA protest was made before the circulation of the FNSA letter.


text: Family honors memorable meals with must-do menu By Julie Robinson November 6, 2012 Story Share Reed Robinson Nancy Tonkin and her brother, Tim Tonkin, hold the platter on which the family's roasted turkeys have been served since their grandmother acquired it almost 100 years ago. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Glossy magazine covers with photos of trendy holiday dinners don't tempt Nancy Tonkin. She's been roasting her stuffed turkey the way her mother taught her and serving it on the family's 1920s china platter since 1987.That's the year her mother, also named Nancy, got sick and Tonkin and her father, Bud Tonkin, took over turkey roasting duty at the family home in Clarksburg.The Tonkins are big on tradition. Their routine hasn't changed much through the years. For many families, the days when the matriarch prepared a labor-intensive meal and served it at a well-laid table has given way to more convenient foods perhaps served on plastic ware. Family members might gather around the television rather than the dining room."It's important because it's a celebration of family time spent together. It doesn't take a whole lot more time to make a pretty dinner," Tonkin said. "My mother always did take the time to prepare and make the table pretty. We continue to enjoy that."Nancy, who lives in Nitro, and her two brothers, John of Weston and Tim of Charleston, remember that their father rarely went grocery shopping, but he always accompanied their mother to select the Thanksgiving and Christmas turkeys. He'd pick the biggest one he could find. Their roaster, always the same one, of course, could accommodate a 20-22 pound bird."Dad would manhandle that turkey, salting it inside and then stuffing it," Nancy said. A Tonkin family cookbook with instructions for roasting a turkey notes that he was also known for his skill in sewing up the stuffed bird and binding its legs with string.After roasting for 20 minutes per pound, he transferred the burnished turkey to a blue and white Copeland Spode serving platter and carried it to the head of the dining room table. In a scene reminiscent of a Norman Rockwell painting, the family sat in their nice clothes, while they watched him carve it at a table set with Tonkin's mother's gold-rimmed bone china."I always feel closer to Mom and Dad when I cook the turkey. Our family enjoys the tradition of turkey for Thanksgiving and Christmas," said Tonkin, who said she always receives many compliments on the turkeys she still prepares for the family holiday gatherings, which are now held the home of Tim and his wife, Veronica.Tonkin roasts the turkey at her home, and then transports it to her brother's house. "When she pulls up with the turkey, we all jump up because the turkey's here," said Veronica Tonkin.The turkey is stuffed with a traditional cornbread stuffing that Tonkin makes with lots of fresh parsley and sage, usually from her own garden, and leftover cornbread, which she usually has on hand after making chili and cornbread the day before Thanksgiving.She chops extra celery, onions and fresh herbs and saves them for the turkey soup she'll make the following day. Leftover gravy goes into the soup, which is thicker than the clear broth soup many people make from their turkey carcass.Tonkin made and served the complete turkey dinner photographed for this story on Sunday, but that won't excuse her from doing it all again in a few weeks for the family's Thanksgiving celebration. Her mother tried that one year when she served a standing rib roast instead of turkey. Although it was delicious, the family vetoed it for future holiday dinners."We wanted turkey," she said.Reach Julie Robinson at email@example.com or 304-348-1230. @recipe hed:Tonkin Turkey@recipe:1 turkey, thawed1 recipe dressing1/2 cup butter1-2 tablespoons flour @recipedir:REMOVE turkey wrapping and set in sink full of water.

Republican voters across America are in for a big surprise. And a happy one! It has to do with a certain THING.
It is the thing a lot of voters say is the reason they are for Rick Santorum instead of Mitt Romney. …
It is the thing that they say makes them unenthusiastic about Romney. …
It is the thing polls reveal as perhaps his main weakness. …
The surprise is that that THING, is actually Mitt's greatest strength. The thing is called by many different names but is always the same thing:
The thing is "Personal morality and values," which is the No. 1 reason primary voters give for preferring Santorum over Romney.
The thing is "Faith and Family," which is Santorum's theme and logo, which he uses to try to separate himself from Mitt.
The thing is a "core of beliefs" that the media keeps saying they can't find in Romney.
What the polls tell us at this point is that Romney is winning with the "practical" voters who respect his management and financial ability and think he can fix the economy; and Santorum is winning with the "idealistic" voters who want someone with principles, morality, faith and family, and a "core."
And, personally, we believe that Santorum is indeed a family-oriented person of faith. But this is a similarity and not a contrast with Romney.
The irony is that the man who right now is losing the family and values vote is a faithful husband of 42 years, an LDS stake president, a devoted father of five highly moral sons, a man who worked for a dollar a year to save the Olympics, and someone who has probably given more time and money to charity than any presidential candidate in history.
Will voters eventually find this out? Of course they will. All things eventually come out in our seemingly endless American political campaigns.
But why doesn't Mitt talk a little more about these things? Why doesn't he brag a little bit about his great family and his volunteerism and his church service and his integrity? Part of the answer is that he thinks campaigns should be about policies and solutions and the ability to govern. The other part of the answer is something voters don't know about Romney and something voters don't value very much in politics: It is humility. Romney has a certain humility that makes it hard for him to flaunt the things that he thinks of as his duty and his responsibility rather than as some kind of feather in his cap.
It's the same reason that he and his wife, Ann, are a little uncomfortable and awkward in talking about their wealth. They think of their financial well-being as a stewardship, not as something that makes them better or more privileged than others.
You may not see too many pundits and media types talking about humility. And you may not see too many candidates displaying it. But this idea of stewardship and responsibility and duty may actually be the most important qualification for high office. It was a quality of George Washington, who, by the way, was the wealthiest president we have ever had.
Here's a prediction: As this long and tedious campaign wends its way through nomination and finally to the November election, Romney will continue to be viewed as the most competent and practical candidate, but he will also gradually be revealed to be the most moral, most family-committed and most values-driven candidate (and the most personally humble.)
And that will be the happy surprise!
And despite all of the predictions that the general election campaign will be full of attacks and negative campaigning, it is likely to be between two family-prioritizing men who will each make the case that they are loyal to their own wives and children and that they care about the families of every American. And that just might make for a November campaign that takes a higher road than most people think it will. It might even become a campaign that we want our children to watch!

G'day. Welcome to this web site.
It's taken many hours to reach this point which, in itself, is only a few small steps along the path. My original plan was to identify my ancestors going back three or four generations. But I didn't and couldn't stop there. When I began to find a few steps back from there, I decided that I would stop when I discovered how each of my ancestors arrived in Australia. This step is largely complete. There are a few "brick walls" like how Mary Doodson or Sarah Jane Hill got to Australia, or when they died or where they're buried.
Another part of my original plan was to only plot my pedigree and disregard their descendants along other lines. That, too, was expanded as I discovered people who I wanted to include for various reasons. From there I considered only a so-called "drop pedigree" where only the siblings of my pedigree line would be included. I'm not there yet, but am on the way, and am happy to expand along known lines.
I've found a few convicts among my lot (though I can only lay claim to third settlement offenders), but my interest has been piqued upon hearing that Gascoigne's were associated with William the Conqueror; and that there are many placenames in Ireland that derive from the name Bennett. Added to that are the family stories that we somehow relate to William John Wills (of Burke and Wills infamy) and George William Evans (the surveyor of the early 1800's). Whilst I haven't found anything to support those assertions, I'll continue looking and digging. As an aside, I'd be surprised if there ends up being anything other than a possibly remote connection to George Evans as the James Evans in my pedigree was transported with the third fleet rather than being born in the colony.
As I've investigated my family's origins, there have been some interesting, quirky coincidences. Each of my grandparents died in a "4" year - 1944, '64, '74 and '84. Another thing is that each of my antecedents arrived in Australia from England with the exception of the Bennett's in 1881 and the Drury's in 1845. Both of them emmigrated from Ireland - from Meath and Cavan respectively. They would have lived something like 30 km apart and were Catholic and Episcopalian (again respectively). And so it took them 15,000 km and over 100 years for these near-neighbours to meet and finally get together as my parents. Another fact is that I have no record of any direct descendant ever leaving New South Wales. They congregated here during the 1800's and their descendants have remained ever since.
Feel free to borrow anything from here on the following two provisos. Firstly, whilst I'm reasonably diligent in tracking and recording sources, mistakes do happen and so it is emcumbent upon you to verify the information on this site. Secondly, if you have any information that adds to, confirms, or disproves anything here, send it to me and I'll happily take it on board.

The World Food Programme's press release underscores the long-standing challenges to feeding the the world's hungry people and the increased challenges posed by climate change.
Drawing on recent findings from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO) and Oxfam, WFP outlines seven facts on the links between climate and hunger.
5 December 2011: On the sidelines of the Durban Climate Change Conference, the World Food Programme (WFP) issued a press release underscoring seven facts on climate change and hunger.
The facts include that: climate change is expected to add another 10-20 percent to the total number of hungry people by the year 2050; by 2050 we can expect 24 million more malnourished children as a result of climate change, and almost half of this increase, 10 million children, will be in sub-Saharan Africa; between 1980 and 2006 the number of climate-related disasters has quadrupled; the number of people affected by climate-related disasters is expected to reach 375 million per year by 2015; in 2010, climate-related extreme events and disasters affected some 300 million people, most often in countries that have little capacity to cope; with climate change, two-thirds of the arable land in Africa could be lost by 2025, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO); and by 2030, climate change could push food prices up by 50-90 percent more than they would otherwise be expected to rise, according to a recent report by Oxfam. [WFP Press Release]

I hope you're right about the pricing, but I doubt it.
The Old AF-D Nikon 28 f1.4 is currently going for $3000+ on the used market. We'd be lucky if the new 24 f1.4 sold for anything under $2000. The Canon "L" 24 f1.4 goes for $1699 new. Nikon's lenses are normally more expensive, but you get what you pay for.
The 35 f1.4 will have VR according to the Patent Nikon released last week. That leads me to believe it could be a niche lens - possibly a Noct successor. (I can't think of why else you would need VR on a 35mm f1.4.) If it is, it will again fall into the $1500 range or so.
The only 85 rumor I've seen is for the f1.8 VR DX macro. That will be an affordable lens - probably priced similar to the 105mm FX f2.8 VR macro.
I'm really hoping for some new DC lenses. :D
