Branded Links Now On All 3 Major Networks

Linkshare announced today the initiation of branded links on LS with Overstock to begin using the links.
This now makes all three major networks offering branded links, all with major merchants. The ones I am aware of are: Ebay, Buy.com, B&N and Overstock.
Some quotes from the Linkshare press release which may be of particular interest to affiliates (bolding added by me):
LinkShare publishers are now able to change out their Overstock.com links that currently redirect through LinkShare's servers and link directly to Overstock.com.Steve Denton:
Our plan is to introduce the new link structure we are testing with Overstock.com to clients worldwide in the fourth-quarter."LinkShare is always testing new and different ways to enhance the advertising experience for users, advertisers, and publishers," said Steve Denton
This seems like purely a play by all 3 of the networks to make themselves more attractive to their advertisers/merchants. How are publishers/affiliates being compensated for providing SEO benefit to the merchants? A definite plus for the networks and merchants with affiliates being used (IMO).
Networks, when was the last time you made changes or "upgrades" which benefited your affiliates/publishers? In your quest to nab advertisers, you shouldn't forget it's your affiliates/publishers who drive traffic.
I can just picture Q4 on LS now. Oh my! How many LS merchant's may possibly go for this change in Q4? I saw no mention of legacy links and how that will be handled.

"This seems like purely a play by all 3 of the networks to make themselves more attractive to their advertisers/merchants."
I didn't know getting zapped by Google was attractive to merchants/affiliate managers? They really need to take themselves over to the Webmaster Guidelines:
The angle networks are using to sell to this to merchants is one Google says right on their blog that they don't like. Using the affiliate program to game Google.
"Dont participate in link schemes designed to increase your sites ranking or PageRank.
"The best links are not paid, or exchanged after out-of-the-blue emailsthe best links are earned and given by choice.
Most merchants already have great SERPS. This will also lead to new merchants signing up for the sole purpose of getting inbound links. I see zero benefit to affiliates. The argument I used to hear why this is good for affiliates is because of Norton or ad blocking, well -
Norton doesn't do it anymore.
So in a nutshell, it's using the affiliate program to game Google and the other search engines. I'm sure they'll like that. So at this point it's not too late since it's only a few merchants at this time. And I see this as an opportunity for a network to actually think for a change. Let the other networks go in that direction, you stay put with the affiliate links you already have and sell it to merchants that their SERPS won't get hurt like it possibly can in the other networks.

How does it work? Could a merchant offer say 5% to affiliates using the redirects and 10% to those who opt for the branded links?

I'm with Trust on this. They're just shooting themselves in the foot. Any merchant that employs this risks a very serious penalty in Google and other search engines. And I'm sure the networks aren't doing a thing to warn these merchants about these possible repercussions.

I believe also it's a potential disaster for the merchants using these direct links.
Anyway, to introduce that as an improvement for affiliates is stupid.

Volare, where that thought goes next is for the merchant to pay more to those who can pass more PR... once you start thinking about the richness of affiliate techniques, you'll begin to see that focusing on seo benefits distracts from the main purpose of affiliate marketing, incremental sales through extended reach. In addition, this move by networks won't get idly indexed and organically valued by G, they will find a way to discount aff links, even if that means punishing the organic SEO / PR of anything that looks like an affiliate site. Black hat SEOs would become the highest valued affiliates. Merchants would be taking lots of unecessary risks in trying to game the SEs. I don't know of any AMs / OPMs who are true SEO experts - so there'd be turnover in many places.
Who does this idea benefit? It's very short term thinking and is counter productive in so many ways. Merchants should work on SEO and Affiliate Channel distinctly, mixing them waters down both efforts.

and agree with Trust
This will only hurt the merchants now through these networks too as G will say, you want to trick us that is ok, I will already be the top G network with other affiliate offers making it more attractive and will put our own offers above yours easily.Jorge Ramirez | E: email@example.com | P: 305-482-3353 |

But I totally agree that's it's risky SEO. But is the risk just to the merchant? Will the SE's also possibly penalize the affiliate site for being part of the equation on the link scheme? It's also interesting in the context of Google acquiring Performincs and Performics now also offering branded links. That seems a bit of a conflict.

How about if affiliates insert the "no follow" command into their links? Wouldn't that solve many of the problems being discussed here, or would it just create a bunch of new problems? But then of course, who wants to bother having to insert a special command into all of their links?!Rick M.

It appears to me that this could be the networks' attempt at making the merchant more and more dependent on them. If the merchant's SERPs take a dive, they might consider allowing the BHOs the networks push on them aboard in a desperate attempt to regain the sales numbers. Nice "partnership" huh?

I also want to thank Trust for great info.
I'm with Brian! This is the perfect post to point merchants to...who want to use their Affiliate channel to improve link pop. Affiliate marketing is not the channel for merchants to build page rank. Killing two birds with one stone (increased sales through Affiliate partners & higher link popularity) isn't going to happen.
Merchants should take note to Sal's comment..
Maybe by next year we will see a lot of those merchants on supplemental results, listed below the affiliate sites already there now.

There was a brand new merchant - a first timer no one ever heard of
They offered me - and a handful of others - who ranked well on their preferred keywords a special deal...
Basically, double commissions if we used a branded link instead of the usual Network link
A year later...
They went from nowhere, to consistently ranking number 1 or 2, while our sites are nowhere to be found for those keywords
Don't do it.

Oh Shoooooot
A Kolimbo merchant that gave me branded links (I guess I was the only aff that promoted products) sent an email 2 weeks ago saying they're leaving Kolimbo on 7/31
They'll let us know where they go
Never got another email, and Kolimbo says they're gone, I should drop the program
So I clicked a link to see what kind of error message a visitor gets...
My links go to the right products - only difference is I get no commission.
I'll be busy tonight!!!

Scary, Billy Kay, and downright deceptive. I'm glad you caught this before you gave away too much more free advertising...
I can understand wanting to get more for the same price (give me the SEO and the affiliate growth at the same time), though the positions outlined here by the ABW members is quite reasonable. As a merchant, I don't expect my affiliates to provide me with free SEO work - I just want them to promote my program.
And if I'm not going to pay them, I certainly don't expect to get qualified traffic (or any traffic, for that matter...).Chris Sturgill

That is a good angle Billy.
What happens when the merchant says BYE BYE to the network? Will the link work?
Question: I am wondering how successful Amazon is when it comes to their aff program as they have branded links too..Ma, where the beer? :escape:

Even when they close down the program, the branded link will work
it looks like this:
the link will still work, except no one's tracking the aid=4444 part - the part that sends you money

Bad for Affiliates and the Networks

I just read the same press release and wanted to post that this new structure will be bad for both the affiliates and will eventually be bad for the networks.
Let's say that an affiliate web site has the top position in Google for keyword XXX. They decide to monetize their site by having a an ad to a relevant page on Overstock. If the linkshare product works as planned, the affiliate would lose their top position for the keyword. This cuts both Linkshare and the affiliate out of the loop.
I wish the affiliate networks would realize that the things they do to intentionally undermine their affiliates also undermines their own business.
Anyway, affiliates need to start protecting themselves by pushing all of their affiliate links through redirects. Of coiurse, the merchants engaged in a business war against their affiliates are likely to start rejecting websites that use redirects.
In the long run, the best bet for affiliates is to reject the big networks and merchants seeking to cheat the system and to promote those companies looking to play fair.
August 25th, 2007, 03:49 PM #22
I just came up with an analogy that might help mechants understand why affiliates don't like branded links...
It's kind of like if a company who sends out a memo to announce a new benefit for their employees. The benefit is that they are now required to show up an hour early to work every day, put on a chicken costume, and walk up and down the sidewalk promoting their company off the clock.
First, providing SEO benefits to you is not our job. Second, we get absolutely no benefit from providing free SEO benefits to you. Third, it's insulting that you try to spin this as a benefit for affiliates.
August 26th, 2007, 06:36 PM #23We have an in-house program with direct links...
As many of you are aware, we left beFree and created an in-house program over a year ago. So a few questions...
1) Do you view our direct links as a problem?
2) Would you rather we set up a "fake" tracking domain to re-direct through? Like www.random-tracking-domain-that-will-not-help-seo.com
3) Couldn't you do this (#2) on your own?
4) What about using no-follow tags?
5) Did you ever care about the SEO benefit you have been giving to the networks?
From a merchants perspective direct links allow us to
1) Offer more variety in inbound links that can better cater to the offer or product.
2) Not be held hostage by our networks if we want to change. This lesson learned by the shuttering of reporting.net.Reha Kocatas - MagazineAgent.com

To be honest, I had never considered the direct links issue to be a concern. No one voiced this during the transition and had I not come accross this thread I would continue to be ignorant.
So now my question is do we open a program with CJ to allow affilaites opposed to direct linking an alternative way to be involved with our program? The unfortunate thing is that such a program would have to have a much lower commission then our in-house program due to fees.Reha Kocatas - MagazineAgent.com

Mega party beginning to take shape, adopts name ADPN
Mega party is said to be a coalition of disgruntled members of APC and PDP, desperate to take power from APC.
The Proposed Mega Party seems to be taking Shape as the promoters were said to have recently adopted the name ACTION DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF NIGERIA (ADPN).
The Drivers the Party who have been holding Informal meetings all along have decided to come into open at least to some Extent, as some leaders of the PDP, APC PDM Labour Party, and Accord Party, among others were the brains behind the Emerging Mega Political Party.
The formal Launching of the name is scheduled for Abuja on Monday December 19th 2016, according to sources close to the Mega Party on Friday.
It was gathered that some key leaders and promoters of the New Mega Party who are still in the APC have asked to be excused from the Open Sessions, while some Key Members of the PDP will start open romancing with the Mega arrangement as from Monday.
A source privy to situations going on in the new party revealed to Politics Nigeria that leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the All Progressives Congress (APC), the Labour Party (LP), Accord Party (AP) and the Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM), among others, were masterminding the new political party.
Investigations show that while some leaders of the new party who are still in the ruling All progressives congress (APC) have asked to be excused from public sessions, members of the PDP are expected to openly express their support for the new political party after the scheduled Monday meeting.
Meanwhile, Members of the Sheriff faction of the PDP have concluded plans to join the APC when disgruntled members of the ruling party decamp and officially join the Mega party. Although, Sheriff and his loyalists have made their intentions to join the ruling party known, the leadership of the APC says it is 'still looking through' and 'considering' their interests.

Issue that the hotfix package fixesThis hotfix package fixes the following issue that was not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
- In Excel 2003, the ACCRINT function returns a different result than in Microsoft Excel 97 for Windows.

However, in Microsoft Excel 2000 and later versions of Microsoft Excel, this behavior was changed so that the ACCRINT function returns the total accrued interest for all periods. Now, the ACCRINT function returns the same result as when the first_interest date parameter is set to a date that is equal to or less than the first period in Excel 97 for Windows.

ntoskrnl BSOD on Wakeup from Sleep
For the past month I have been randomly getting BSOD when my computer wakes up from sleep. My first crash was 25 days after install, and now it happens every 3-5 days. Usually just once, and I can never seem to replicate. But it happens only when the comp is waking up, never when in use. I have tried to induce it by sleep/wake repeatedly but it happens totally randomly.
I typically don't leave my computer on for prolonged periods so I can't say it wouldn't do this after being turned on for 3 days but I have yet to have a crash like that.
My system is overclocked/watercooled and had been running stable with Vista x64 since it was built in Jan 09. I installed Win 7X64 Ultimate 7100 on July 5 2009.
So, far I have tried:
Reinstalling chipset, and updating all USB pheripheral drivers.
Update video and sound drivers
Uninstalling all windows updates
Removed one 4870 and disabled crossfire
Full repair of windows (not clean install)
Overnight memtest 8 passes
Prime 95 multithread 9 hours with no failures
Last Night I tried:
Updating chipset again, bios, and raid firmware.
Disconnecting my UPS from the USB port.
I am at a loss for what is causing this. I've seen a few threads around with
ntoskrnl issues, but none that happen only on wake up. Tonight I plan to do some PSU testing.
Does anyone have any ideas about this, mini dump file is attached ?
Here is what I have taken from the event viewer for the most recent crash:

Win 8 Release candidate 8400
Well the dump file says its hardware not a driver, and from the buffer overflow I would suspect memory first. Have you tried running memtest on it? You can also pull all but 1 stick and see if you are more stabile. Sometimes a max memeory, or max cpu check in bios causes this so you should also see if you have them and make sure they are unchecked

You could try replacing your ntoskrnl with mine from here But mine is a newer version ntoskrnl Driver power state failure
Well the dump file says its hardware not a driver, and from the buffer overflow I would suspect memory first. Have you tried running memtest on it? You can also pull all but 1 stick and see if you are more stabile. Sometimes a max memeory, or max cpu check in bios causes this so you should also see if you have them and make sure they are unchecked

Looking at what you posted back from the dump file:
RTKVHDA.sys - I'm thinking this is probably from the ATI HD Audio drivers. My on board sound is disabled and I use a creative XFI. I may have to look into disabling the ATI driver.
SYMTDI.SYS - Google says this is some symantec file but I've never had any symantec product installed here. I can't even find that file on the machine. Anyone have a idea what this may be ?
I'm going to test my psu this evening as well. I'm curious to see if the bios updates I just did make any difference. It sucks that I can't replicate this. Each time I think I've fixed it so far it happens again a few days later.
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll report back in a few days.

Just wanted to post back with an update to my problem. It appears that is was a hardware problem caused by my Saitek X52. I usually kept it plugged in 24/7 before, but since the last crash over a week and half ago I have plugged it in and out as needed. I have not had any BSOD since, compared to 1 every 3 days. Funny enough nothing in the mini dump pointed to the Saitek drivers, but I think the power failure is happening when the Saitek software loads after logon.

How sad that Superman—America's most famous "alien" immigrant—renounced his U.S. citizenship to become an ex-pat with a globalist worldview.
In the 900th edition of Action Comics, published April 27, Superman says, "'Truth, Justice, and the American way' isn't enough anymore. I'm tired of having my actions construed as instruments of US policy, which is why I intend to speak before the United Nations tomorrow and inform them that I am renouncing my U.S. citizenship."
The United States is a God blessed nation where every year more than 1 million people try to "break in"—by either crossing our borders without authorization or overstaying the terms of a visa—in order to live here and pursue their own American dream of freedom and opportunity.
Many of those who enter illegally risk life and limb to do so, by walking for days through the dessert or swimming ashore from a tanker. Another 13 million or more apply for the "green card" lottery which provides an opportunity for one million people—who would not otherwise qualify to apply to immigrate—to legally immigrate to the U.S. Of these, approximately half are able to complete the process.
Superman may not value his U.S. citizenship, but it is coveted by hundreds of millions of people from around the world.
When I was a child growing up in the 1950s, my neighborhood pals and I would play Superman and Lois Lane. The little boys went around with bath towel capes pinned to their shirts with giant diaper safety pins, and the little girls raided our mothers' closets for high heels and pocketbooks so we could enact being newspaper reporter Lois Lane.
As youngsters we didn't understand the Cold War, but we were drilled how to hide under our desks in case the Midwest somehow managed to be attacked by a nuclear bomb, we said the pledge of allegiance at the beginning of the school day, and even as we watched Superman on black and white televisions, we knew that he was red, white and blue, through and through. We grew up with dads who had gone off to fight in World War II and in Korea and we grew up believing in an America that was the land of the free and the home of the brave.
We also watched as the nation buried an assassinated president and as the Civil Rights movement removed—brick-by-brick— the walls of segregation which barred black American citizens from full participation in schools, jobs, housing, public accommodations and the body politic.
Our generation dared to ask questions and to join in protests against our government's actions in Vietnam. We grew to understand that government was not always right and that even presidents were not above the law as we witnessed the Watergate scandal and the resignation of Richard Nixon.
Many were sullied and grew cynical about the system. Turning their anger toward America they deconstructed the histories and myths that underpinned our national identity, and they used a critical-theory lens through which to view and sit in judgment of the country from its inception.
Some dropped out and have never plugged back in politically.
Others of us have refused to throw out the baby with the bath water and have committed ourselves to the ideals of American exceptionalism a concept perhaps first acknowledged n 1831 by Alex de Tocqueville in his book American Democracy, "The position of the Americans is therefore quite exceptional, and it may be believed that no democratic people will ever be placed in a similar one."
Since its founding, American has not been without error, but as the founders wrote in the Preamble to our Constitution, their purpose was to found "a more perfect Union" than they had been ruled by. They were humble and human enough to know that they were not forming a perfect or utopian nation. In addition the preamble set forth the goal of the uniting states to "establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity."
As a kid growing up, this sounded a lot like the words the announcer used to introduce the show "fighting a never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way."
First introduced to America in 1938 as a comic book hero, Superman was from the planet Krypton. He told Lois he had come to "fight a never ending battle for truth and justice." In 1940, a syndicated Superman serial drama was on the radio, and by 1941 Superman became a movie star.
On the radio, the Superman tagline was expanded to "…truth, justice and the American Way" between 1942 and 1944. The following year the introduction became "Faster than a speeding bullet. More powerful than a locomotive. Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!" The words "the American way" returned during the Cold War in the introduction to the Adventures of Superman television series which ran from 1952 to 1958.
Superman's popularity waned during the turbulent 60s and early 70s as America soldiers fought in Vietnam and war protesters demonstrated on American streets. However, in 1978 the late Christopher Reeve, in the role of Superman, told Lois Lane, played by Margot Kidder, "I'm here to fight for truth, justice and the American way." This was the first time Superman actually spoke these words.
But 28 years later in the 2006 Superman Returns—staring Norwalk, Iowa native Brandon Routh as Superman—newspaper editor Perry White barked at his reporters to find out if Superman "still believes in truth, justice and . . . all that stuff."
All that stuff?
It was obvious that this incarnation of Superman was a more liberal, progressive super hero who rejected a sense of American nationalism. So it comes as little surprise that Superman is now being co-opted even further by those with an anti-American agenda to renounce his citizenship in a nation where millions are lined up hoping to navigate the legal gauntlet to immigrate.
In a future edition of the chronicles of Superman—perhaps number 901—I hope a new writer, artist and editor will restore Superman's adopted nationality and his personal dignity.

main menu icons
I'm using Mandrake 9.2 and recently I noticed that some of the files in my main menu (applications, configuration, documentation, etc) are not showing their normal icons. I've also noticed that there isn't as many files and folders under them as they're used to be. For instance under "Multimedia", there used to be "Graphics", Sound", and "Video", and now there is just "Graphics". I know i didn't delete all this stuff, Any idea on how this happened?
I guess the first question is:
what have you been doing in/with your system lately?
Things rarely just 'go away' by themselves. :)
Hrmm, well i've been trying to install several applications (grip, k3b, mplayer, edonkey) mostly from the "rpmdrake". I've also been trying to get my wirless card working with dirvers from linux-wlan.com (with no success i might add) :). I've been having to log in as root to so some things. I'm very new to linux, I guess theres no telling what happened. I think I'm going to switch to red hat though. There seems to be much more rpm packages for it. This ./configure, make, make install thing is kinda hit and miss. :)
The "disappearing menus" with mandy 9.2 is kind of a common problem. I dont know if the updates from mandrake address it or not but the immediate solution is to run "update-menus -v" without the quotes, from a command line or in the "run command" dialog box
Awsome, that did it. Thanks!

The Chronicles is a collection of articles, private writings, and journals that developed The Confidence Factor for Women in Leadership movement. All of the journals are impactful and value based to help women in leadership own their places in leadership. It is time to increase the value of women in leadership globally, and it starts with confidence. When women feel valued, they lead with confidence.
The Confidence Factor for Women in Leadership is based on our in-house four-year study of professional women who were struggling to claim their seats at the table. Our findings proved that women have the capability of being effective leaders and business owners but are risk averse in several areas due to the lack of courage and mentoring. The Confidence Factor is a global movement that is committed to creating confident women leaders who are ready to accelerate their careers and business while shattering the glass-ceiling mind-set.

I also tried xbmc and it doesn't even load. I could very easily load ubuntu or any other lightweight live cd and install VLC onto it. But that would take RAM and unnecessary resources. And I want it to be on a cd so any computer can load with the same configuration. I'm really looking for someone quick to install.

First-up-best-dressed charade moves up gears as rhetoric trumps realism on Dáil return
Well now, here's something absolutely astonishing: Fine Gael think the Fianna Fáil crowd are trying to have it both ways on the Budget.
"They are trying to own and disown the Budget at the same time," one Fine Gael source offered as the 'first-up-best-dressed' tussle continued. It could be a working definition of the odd business of politics. It could be a particularly apposite definition in these extraordinary times, when no government has tried to govern from such a position of weakness in the State's history.
The Fine Gael moan is, in fact, just another way of saying how Fianna Fáil perceives their current oddball political positioning. The posh phrase is that they are in Opposition, underpinning the minority Coalition, under a Confidence and Supply Agreement.

Scripting in DVD Studio Pro, Series 2Part 1: The basics of working with SPRMs
Before we get started, if you're a beginner at DVD scripting, I urge you to go back and read our first series on scripting in DVD Studio Pro, dealing with the bare basics of creating commands and working with various operations. The following are links to the first four articles in our DVD Studio Pro scripting series. You should read at least the first two articles to give yourself a decent foundation in the principles of scripting.
DVD Studio Pro Scripting, Series 1
Part 1: General scripting information
Part 2: Creating an interactive quiz
Part 3: Keeping track of time
Part 4: Pausing and resuming a timer
Because what we're getting at here might be a bit overwhelming at first, I'm going to break up this series (as I did with the first series) into general information, followed by project-specific examples and expansions on the basic information. This first part covers some of the basics of SPRMs, as well as some not-so-basic aspects of working with SPRMs. This is fundamental background information that you'll need before moving on to Part 2 in this series, which will deal with the more complex process or working with bit-wise operations to parse data contained in the bits of some SPRMs.
What's an SPRM, and why do I care?
SPRMs (System Parameter Register Memories) store information about a DVD player. This information includes things like the region of a player, a player's audio capabilities (DTS, Dolby Digital, etc.), parental management controls, default languages and aspect ratio/letterbox preferences, among many others. Some of this information is set in the DVD player at the factory and is unalterable by the user, such as the player's region code and audio capabilities. (Region code is sometimes alterable by the user, of course, but not usually.) Other types of information might be set by the user when setting up the DVD player, such as parental management or default language.
In either case, there are many instances where you'd want to use the information stored in an SPRM to make certain things in your DVD presentation automatic, like a censored audio track for people who don't like icky words or a censored video track for people who don't like to see images of naughty body parts (as represented by parental management settings). Or maybe you want to check the audio capabilities of a player to make sure that the highest-quality track in your presentation plays by default, eliminating the need to have the user choose between DTS, AC-3 or stereo.
You get the idea.
The problem, as with so much having to do with DVD scripting, is that there's no immediately obvious (or intuitive) way to make this happen. And, in fact, DVD Studio Pro's documentation on using SPRMs probably doesn't make any sense to you at all, unless you already know how to work with SPRMs, in which case it's no use to you at all.
Ideally, if I were designing a front end for scripting, I'd make these sorts of things obvious for the novice user and let the application handle everything under the hood. Something like: "If the player's parental management is set to a G rating, play audio stream 2." Wouldn't that be nice? But that's not how it works. Instead, you're stuck working with scripting commands and operator, converting binaries to decimals and trying to figure out how all of these things relate to what you're trying to accomplish, which, again, is not something you can simply intuit on your own.
That's the knowledge plateau we're dealing with.
How can I integrate SPRMs into my scripts?
There are three things you need to know about SPRMs before you get started. The first is what each SPRM does. The second is what each part (or "bit") of a given SPRM means. (For example, which bit in SPRM 14--"Video Player Configuration"--tells you whether a player is set to a 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio?) The third is what all of the values are for these bits so that you can use this information in your script. All of these things are listed in your DVD Studio Pro manual (and help file) beginning on page 457. No trick there.
The real trick is in figuring out how to integrate this information into a script. And this involves knowing how to extract the bit information stored in SPRMs and manipulate it to suit your needs.
Well, there's no direct way to say, "If SPRM 16 (language code for the DVD player) is set to English, then play Audio Stream 2." Instead, you have to pull the value out of the SPRM, stick it in a GPRM and then get your value from the GPRM. And, of course, you also need to know the numeric code that stands for the language you're looking for--or for whatever piece of information you're looking for, as it's all numeric. These values, again, are listed in your manual, though they can also be calculated based on the type of information you're looking for. A language code, for example, is a number based on the ASCII value of the first two letters of the particular language. You can figure this out using a calculator designed for this purpose. I recommend Haxor, which can be downloaded free from http://gamma.nic.fi/~eraiha-s/products/haxor/haxor.html. Haxor can also convert binaries to decimals, which is also critical for this kind of work. I'll get to examples of ASCII conversion below; we'll get into binaries for bit-wise operations next week in Part 2 of this series.
So, just to move momentarily from the abstract to the concrete, let's take a look at an example where we want to find out which audio language a player is currently set to and then place that value into a GPRM.

She's even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life—as she sees it—is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost. (Synopsis taken from goodreads.com)

text: After a week of frustration, with Eclipse crashing six ways from Sunday whether Helios or Galileo, I reached the conclusion that you cannot install Android for use in Eclipse JEE, my usual mode. Instead, use the plain Java Eclipse. My definitive (and separate!) installation became Eclipse Galileo SR2 IDE for Java Developers. I added these lines to eclipse.ini, though I probably did not have to be so generous: Code (Text): -vmargs -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m In order to distinguish this version of Eclipse from my usual JEE development version on my task bar, I found an icon to graft onto it at Free Large Android Icons and selected one that looked most like the green Android icon.

Court rejects application for extradition of Roisin McAliskey to Germany
A court in the North has rejected an application for the extradition of Roisin McAliskey to Germany.
The German authorities had wanted her to face trial for the attempted murder of British soldiers at a British army barracks in Osnabruck eleven years ago.
The judge said the British home secretary's 1998 ruling, that she was unfit to face trial on medical grounds, pertained to the present time.
Ms McAliskey's lawyers had argued that to extradite her would "be an abuse of process as that application had failed".
They said it would be unjust and oppressive to grant the extradition of what they called a "fragile woman with an appalling history of post traumatic stress disorder".
This refers to evidence given by her mother - former MP Bernadette Devlin - of the mental trauma she still suffers after a failed loyalist murder bit on the family home in 1981 when she was aged nine.

The great vast majority of contries do not confer birthright citizenship. They don't because it's bad policy. We shouldn't either and I believe the Fourteenth Amendment is being misused to confer citizenship erroneously to children born to non-American parents.

"Appointed For Life…"
I heard it on the news in the wake of Associate Justice Ginsburg's public comments on Donald Trump that "Supreme Court Justices are appointed for life…" Like much promulgated by the mainstream news media, it is not true. The Constitution says: "The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during […]
No Fly, No Buy
No-Fly, No-Buy is horrid legislation. But it is passed off as "common sense" by people (Democrats, news media) who know not what i does or just don't give a shit about due process and the Constitution.
A Well Regulated Militia…
The first thirteen words are purely explanatory and neither add nor subtract or restrict what follows: that the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
"Natural Born Citizen"
The Term "natural born Citizen" is used only once in the Constitution, as opposed to "citizen" used in numerous places. In fact, in the entirety of U.S. Law, "natural born Citizen" appears in only one place — as a requirement to hold the position of President Of The United States.

The book, "When the Heart Waits" by Sue Monk Kidd, inspired this piece. In the book she attempts, in an inspiring way, to address the spiritual mid-life crisis from a woman's point of view. She describes 'diapause' as that point of clinging before the caterpillar begins to make its cocoon. It epitomizes the leap of faith it takes to enter the cocoon and emerge, through time, a changed creature, to be transformed. This relates well to the time in mid-life when we decide if we remain closed or open to a new way of being.

Entry #73
I apologize I haven't been updating my profile or answering comments lately. The truth is that I haven't worked on Bk at all since my last post. Why? Well, there's no easy way to say this so I'll just say it; I have been severely depressed for the past few months or so. At the moment I've lost any and all motivation to do... anything really, let alone something creative, such as animating.
I visited a psychiatrist and after a few visits I was prescribed some anti-depressant meds. We'll see how things go when/if those kick in. Should be a few weeks/a month, or so I was told. Oh, And just in the case you're wondering why I'm depressed... Well, It's just your average no-life nerd foreveralone stuff. You know how it goes, I'm sure.
So that's it for now. See ya when I feel better.

Well there is no easy way around a depression. I really wish I could help you and well anybody else with a depression.
Well personally if I don't feel so great I try watching a funny video and fake my own enjoyment so much that it actually makes me happy or listen to some atmospheric music and really sink into it (even sad songs).
Well good luck with it.

Don't give up on the Bunnykill series just yet. You do not want to end up like Alvin Earthworm. You are seriously one of the very few animators out there that is STILL making animations sense 2003. A lot of people have just thrown in the towel. But at least make a proper ending for the series in a Bunnykill 6 if you really do feel like continuing this amazing series. Honestly there is nothing I can do to help you out. All that I can really say is that the only one who can really and truly fix your relationship problems is you. And to keep on trying to finish your animations.
2012-09-05 06:18:29
We've all been there, man. Stay strong.
2012-09-05 22:56:57
the crippling, painful realization that one will never have sex as long as one lives
2012-09-07 12:49:26
I love your animations and hope you're feeling better soon.
We are only human and majority of us do go through these phases but the main thing is that it's just a phase. I don't expect you to churn out the latest Bunny Kill as soon as physically possible, I expect you to take your time and put in the effort when you feel you should. As a fan of yours I will be patient with your progress in animation but above all I hope you feel better.
I can't do anything unless you want to talk about it with a random fan (can't say I would be any good) but I'm here to support you.
2012-09-07 12:54:15
hey guys he is still feeling a little depressed but he'll still work at little but just to tell ya guys its gonna be awesome :D
2012-09-25 15:54:48
You can have one of my girlfriends if you're still feeling down ;)
2012-09-25 17:28:34
Having lots of girls changes nothing in anyone's life. Blame the society that created the false image that "to be happy you must fuck every girl you meet". Been there, done that and it changed nothing. True hapiness can only come from inside you, it may sound cliche as hell, but that was exactly what i thought untill it occured to me that it was actually true.
2012-09-26 01:30:30
crazyVS U ARE CRAZY but u have point
2012-10-07 03:30:31
Hope you feel better soon
2012-10-21 14:33:31
Man, hope you'll be okay soon. But, hey, listen! Antidepressants won't do anything good and can kill a creative person in you. Try to overcome depression other ways: hang out with friends, go do some camping, or do somethin crazy, like jump with a parachute (with instructor of course if you haven't done it before), learn to ride a bike! Common, you'll be good!
2012-10-22 12:02:29
try having a good laugh. youtube is your friend in these stuff. or if you like mangas/animes like me you should try one piece or beelzebub just to name a few funny ones.
2012-10-24 16:19:10
Not to worry man... even I, that I've got a girlfriend and a quite decent job feel sometimes depressed...
Best thing you can do: don't think and try to sleep 10 hours or more. Then,your brain wil be more active and will produce more hormones, that are the stuff that creates happiness. Thinks like taking a LONG walk around the mountains/fields/open-air not in city it's also said to help (well,it works for me). Oh, and think about something: all that "no-life", "nerd" and "foreveralone" crap you talk about... the only reason why you think about it it's because society got that in ur mind, but also specific persons. My oppinion: get the hell away from anyone that says you are a "foreveralone nerd".
Hope you think 'bout it :) Get better soon :)
2012-11-10 18:09:09
But at least you reached much more than other people, you have flash video with more than one and half million views, you have fans. You are still doing stuff, but its your life, its upon you how you spend your time. Bunnykill was always been really much to me and it will always be. Wish you the best
2012-11-23 17:22:54
Dude, those anti-depressants are nothing. They never work... or, if they do, they don't work correctly.
Anyone calling you a "forever alone nerd" should have the business end of a Yamato Cannon stuffed where the sun don't shine, then fired... twice.
I ignore people that call me that. Though I take pride in my nerd-isms.
2012-11-23 17:24:27
I suppose I should put this up here as well... I'm sure alot of people say gamers have no lives...
I say "I am a Gamer, not because I don't have a life, but because I choose to have MANY."
2012-11-24 14:50:34
Awe damn man. ): That really hits the pits. I hope you feel better soon.
2012-12-17 15:33:53
it would be awesome to see another masterpiece of animation from you :) i know its hard work to create it, but iam just saying, it would be awesome ^_^
2012-12-19 16:15:32
not to worry man try to sleep more and do some new and exiting thing u never done before u cant just stay in front of a PC eat ur pills and hope to get better go outside and have a long,relaxing walk and u will feel much better
2012-12-23 14:53:10
I know how you feel man, hope you get well soon.
2013-03-03 23:19:40
i have been there man, hang out with your friends. and to be honest i have seen so many flashes in my day and i realize that good things never last forever. if making these flash movies stresses you out then stop making them. if your hoobie becomes work its no fun. just live life and take it slow.

Discussion in 'Android Devices' started by shook187, Oct 4, 2010.
Thanks for the heads up.
is it for brand spanking new sprint service, add a line, upgrade or what? usually, new services get the best discounts.
Its for new service....Which I got when I brought the Epic.
I thought about buying the Epic via Amazon, but then how will they handle the return (if i did not like it) or the exchange (if my Epic was defective)?? I am sure that they will handle it, but it won't be as easy as going to the local store to exchange it. The wait may lead me to have no phone for an extended period of time. This was my thinking...and why i did not go down that route.
Returns would have to be handled through Amazon, but all replacements/exchanges due to defects are handled through Sprint.
Just a heads up to others like me -- I bought my Epic 4G for $199.99 last week. When I read this note I emailed Amazon and they refunded $50. So, if you recently purchased the Epic from Amazon you should try this. They said this was an exception to standard policy, however. I'm a pretty regular Amazon customer, with Prime as well, so it's possible that helped. However, given their return policy it seems like they should be willing to refund if you purchased in the last 1-2 weeks.
Thanks for the heads-up on the deal, you earned me $50!
Why does the EVO cost $179.99, but the EPIC cost $149.99 from Amazon.com? The proof of which phone is better is in the price.
that link doesn't tell me anything. Is the renewal price the same? Do you have to bother with mail-in rebates with Amazon?
Are you pretty sure of this nchargreed?? So if I order through Amazon, and phone is defective or has some issues, can I walk into a Sprint store and have it replaced 2/3/4 times till I get a satisfactory model?? (of course return would be handled by Amazon in either case). If that is correct, I will be the happiest man tonight
I'm absolutely sure! Sprint handles ALL WARRANTY issues. Very seldomly have I purchased phones through sprint, most are purchased on Ebay, but Sprint handles manufacturer warranty issues.
I don't see any option for an upgrade. Only one for a new plan or without a plan at all.
exactly my point....however, I'm wondering if contract renewal counts the same as new service. It does everywhere else.
What a deal for $150...guys who was on standby on getting the phone should be all over this deal. Ill be happy if best buys sells it for $199 within the next 3weeks so I could get some money back.
I also don't seen an option to port a phone number across, which sucks.
My contract with AT&T isn't due up until Nov 3rd. Wonder what the price drop will be like by then.
Does anyone know if Sprint will price match Amazon.com? I know one guy at our local store said they'd match Walmart (and we told him the prices were cheaper online at Walmart rather than in the actual store). I'm guessing it's because it's a physical store and not just an online store.

Vail Resorts Goes Green with 100 Percent Wind Power
Ski with the wind! Vail Resorts announced on Tuesday that it is switching to wind power. By purchasing 152,000 megawatt-hours of wind energy, Vail Resorts will offset 100 percent of its company-wide energy use. According to the New York Times:
The announcement makes Vail the second-largest corporate buyer of wind energy in the nation, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, after Whole Foods Market Inc., the big supermarket chain that went to all wind power earlier this year.
Vail Resorts will buy their wind power credits from a Boulder company called Renewable Choice Energy. Vail is leading the pack in bringing alternative energy to the mainstream. Other resorts, like the Aspen Skiing Company, are following suit. And with global warming threatening to reduce much of the mountain snowpack in the West, this is excellent news.

New Delhi, 11th April
I don't hate the rain but I am not its biggest fan either. I don't mind it for a free car wash but definitely on a match day. There was a storm in Delhi just before the match that got Delhi to a total standstill. I got stuck in the traffic for hours (I was not the only one).Somehow, I reached Feroz Shah Kotla on time for the match. It was Delhi Daredevils' first home match against the former champions and the crowd was up for it. They came in numbers to support their team.
My joy held no bounds when my senior called up and said, "Ashish, you will sit in the media lounge."The first thing that came to my mind after hearing the word 'lounge' was cover charges. By now, I am used to the east stand, west stand or some other stand that doesn't cost more than 600 bucks. Today, it was the media lounge.Match was delayed by half an hour due to the rain and it was time for me to grab a free drink.
I was sitting amongst the journalists; no claps, no whistles, no Mexican waves, and no one waving flags. At times, it looked like some office meeting with laptops, cables, papers and I-pads. The yellow brigade was in trouble right from the very first ball and it continued till the end as they bundled out for a mere 110. By now, I had enough. I took a quick exit and reached the east stand. You can call me a block headed guy. I shifted from a lounge to a seat worth 600 rupees, but it was worth it.
Did I miss anything?
Yeah!! Cheer leaders. They were not visible from the media lounge.
It was Aaron Finch the other day against RCB, yesterday it was Naman Ojha's turn; three fours in a row. Virender Sehwag looked his blistering best and there was a real party going in the stands. People were dancing, cheering and hugging. I was feeling the match in the east stand now. The star batsman Kevin Pietersen provided the finishing touches with a match winning cameo. It was supposed to rain in Delhi, but it was raining sixes at the Feroz shah Kotla stadium.
I am looking forward for a similar performance against the mighty Mumbai Indians.


text: Hi everyone, I saw some post about interests in working at home and I for one am all for that. I thought I'd share some experiences I have with this because circumstances had caused me to look for alternative ways to generate income to sustain my family. And I've only been married for 1.5 years!!! From a family aspect, I can't really say I fully comprehend the pressure and the expectation of being a bread-winner but I'm getting there. I've been fortunate with my initial start as a freelancer and I hope that by sharing my experiences here, you too can be encouraged and know that it is possible to generate income. 10 years ago, if you wanted to look for extra income, you had to get out of the house and look for one but with the growing and evolving technology of the internet, there are better ways to generate income online. When I got married last year, I fell into the trap thinking that now, our little family's finances would double and I was so wrong. Finances probably halved or 1/3 because our costs went up! After a couple of months eating into our savings, we struggled. One day, after hashing it out with God regarding His power to provide, I suddenly had a flashback. It must have been God because I had just finished given Him a piece of my mind. That flashback was a childhood memory in which I completed some house chores in exchange for some promised cash from my mum and when I got it, I eagerly went to buy a toy I had seen in the shop. A set of toy belt and pistols with a sheriff's badge. I walked home proudly wearing them on my person. Somehow that flashback led me to think about doing freelancing, an idea that I've had for a number of years but failed to execute it. So I googled it and was pleasantly surprised with what I found. Freelancing had found its way on the internet and is generating an global community. I found a lot of sites dedicated to freelancing work and I signed up on all of them. After going through the grueling task of creating my online freelancer identity, I had to go through some tests. These tests are a series of questions by the websites regarding the categories that I chose as my "area of expertise". It was to certify that I have some knowledge on the subject. I found that these tests helps to give confidence to whoever it is that wants to hire me. When that was done, I started to look at different projects and bid on them. I didn't really know what I was doing and I started to observe what other freelancers were doing, saying and bidding and I did likewise. It was a case of the blind leading the blind. I bid on anything and everything that I could. Those that at least I have some knowledge or skill. Finally, a generous employer decided to hire me for some data entry work. That was my first freelancing job and it was tedious. I did it anyway because I knew it was a start. Finally after a couple of hours of work, I got paid a handsome $16 for my efforts. It took about 3 days of 6-hour slots. That meant my current earnings was less than $1 per hour. It was disheartening to see such meager amount but I was encouraged to see my freelancer account has one 5-star review from this employer. That set me apart from the newbies who make up, I believe, about 15% of the freelancers. There's more than I will share but this will be the first part. If you have any questions, I would love to answer them.

Give it to Toby Gerhardt.
I love Ndamukong Suh and the way he dominates games. I wished Colt McCoy luck in person. Mark Ingram had the best season a running back at Alabama has had since Shaun Alexander in 1999 or Bobby Humphrey in 1986. Tim Tebow is there because...why is he there? Again?
Gerhart had 1736 yards rushing, nearly 200 more than Ingram. He has 26 rushing TDs. Ingram came up big in the SEC Championship and that will mean a lot to some voters. I can see making the case for Ingram, but Gerhart has meant more to Stanford and their 8-4 season that Tebow did to Florida's 8-4 season in 2007 (so much for the 'yeah, but Stanford didn't win enough' argument).
Hey, we can disagree and that is fine, but Gerhardt would be my vote.
My Heisman Ballot (hypothetically, of course):
- Toby Gerhart
- Mark Ingram
- Ndamukong Suh
- Colt McCoy
- CJ Spiller

Bonjour Jérome:RépondreSupprimer
We absolutely love it!! What a find. We should not have hesitated for one moment to buy it and whilst we have no idea of its origin, alas, we think that that does not matter as it is all, box and brushes, so wonderful and in such good condition.
We hope that you will enjoy it for years to come.
I adore it...it's a fantastic find, well done! xRépondreSupprimer
It is superb! I love it!!! Brilliant find!RépondreSupprimer
Merci beaucoup for your lovely comment, Jerôme. One day we will meet, one way or the other...
Hi Jérome!RépondreSupprimer
i think this box and brushes are wonderful find! i love the cover and monograms!
i think its perhaps cloth brushes- other may be for upper coat and other for regular suits and stuffs :D adorable! and such a good quality.
have a great day!
You have found a beautiful treasure my dear! These brushes are clearly well preserved and of a most beautiful design!RépondreSupprimer
Bonjour Jerome. Quelle belle trouvaille.RépondreSupprimer
Je vois quelques marques de fabricant sur le 'T', font-elles pas tiennent-elles des informations supplémentaires quant à l'origine ?
Jérôme, this is to die for!!! Lucky you!!!!RépondreSupprimer
Gorgeous find Jerome! I love things like that! They must have belonged to someone wealthy anyway with objects monogrammed in silver. I wonder who TW was? I will guess - a wealthy English gentleman named, Theodore Wentworth. . . !RépondreSupprimer
ps thanks for letting me know about the Castle Gray - its a gorgeous colour!RépondreSupprimer
It is a great find, this is the beauty of antiques that you have so many questions in mind about them. You can have as many make believe stories about them. The box and the brushes are in such a great shape you will enjoy them for years.RépondreSupprimer
Best wishes
A very handsome find, and I think that clasp lends a great deal to the effect.RépondreSupprimer
Oh what a delightful treasure! Love everything monogrammed, from pillows to towels, I love the lot! Thanks for sharing your find with us!RépondreSupprimer

They couldn't find an H1 Hummer? That would be a better comparison.
what?... No gun turret?
Gotta get one of these to fend off the coming ice age as well! ;)
My understanding is that you don't need a gun turret. You can just take a nap until the bad guy runs out of ammo ... then run him over.
Not as quick though. :)
I want one.
That'd work!
Less than pleased with the lack of any active defenses, even a gun port for the driver or passenger would be a nice addition, and it's more style than defense when you've got non-retracting running boards and all those handy dandy handles for bad guys (or zombies) to hang onto.
Gatling gun -- when you are surrounded by vast hordes of brain-eating zombies, accept no substitute!
How are the tires made?
Marty like, but those hot casings have gotta be hell on the paint job. < |:(~
I'm more concerned about the casings that drop back down into the vehicle. I'd have put a longer chute on.
Then again, when you're in a situation whee you feel the need to hose down the countryside, you probably have other sources of paint damage too.

A greenhouse at Nay Aug Park blooms once again.
A $100,000 grant from Wal-Mart to the Nay Aug Park Conservancy funded a new 30-by-90-foot greenhouse that opens to the public Sunday. Erected some two years ago, the new greenhouse remained incomplete until about a month ago because of additional work and program planning, said city park specialist Sandi Opshinsky.
Officials removed a previous park greenhouse, built in 1910, about six years ago after it fell into disrepair, she said.
The Ronald McDonald House charity, which shelters families of pediatric patients in hospitals, also donated $10,000 for plants and supplies to get the greenhouse sprouting, Ms. Opshinsky said.
Over the past few weeks, the greenhouse filled up with seedlings, flowers and plants of various kinds, from begonias to collard greens.
It will open to the public Sunday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., said Jane Risse, managing director of the nonprofit Shalom Community Development Corp. of Greater Scranton, which works with the city to operate the greenhouse.
Because Shalom Scranton promotes green activities such as community gardens and environmentally friendly horticultural practices, "It seemed the best fit to put Shalom in there," Ms. Opshinksy said.
The goal is to grow flowers for use in the park and around the city, as well as to grow produce for the needy and for sale to the public to further the mission of Shalom Scranton, Ms. Risse said. Another big component will be educational programs, she said.
"We're hoping to be a source of education on ecology, the environment, horticulture and vegetable gardening," Ms. Risse said.
Public hours and days of operation are not yet finalized and may be limited at first, she said.
The greenhouse has been named after former Mayor James Barrett McNulty, known for always wearing a rose on his lapel, Mayor Chris Doherty said. "So we thought it was appropriate to name it after him," Mr. Doherty said.
