It's the season of gratitude and giving. While we all take time to reflect on all the things we have to be thankful for, it's important to make sure the success of your business is on your list.
Whether you're already focused on SEO or you're considering getting started, investing in SEO is sure to make you grateful throughout the year.
Here are the top 6 reasons you'll thank yourself later for investing in SEO now.
1. SEO Works.
There's a reason that people have been focused on SEO for over 15 years — it works. SEO has changed a lot since the early days of keyword stuffing and the first introduction to local SEO. By keeping up with the ever-changing SEO trends, businesses are able to get in front of ideal customers.
As long as you use sound SEO tactics, there is a tremendous opportunity to raise your organic rankings and drive increased traffic to your website. In fact, in this case study, we prove that it's possible to double your traffic and leads by investing in SEO.
2. SEO is a long-term investment in your business's future.
Investing in SEO is like putting money in a retirement account. Unlike PPC or limited-time email promotions, SEO will be there for the long haul. The time, effort, and money you put into building your SEO now pays dividends over time. As you continue to build on it, you'll begin to see increased rankings and more traffic. The long-term investment in SEO yields an accrual of benefits over time.
3. SEO is cost-effective.
Compared to online advertising and offline advertising alternatives (such as direct mail, radio, TV and print), SEO is an affordable option to invest in. While these other types of campaigns can drive immediate revenue, the up-front costs are often higher than with SEO. Plus, SEO is a lower-risk investment and is an asset that continues to grow year over year. In my years of working on SEO campaigns, I've seen companies enjoy big ROI from SEO. For example, in this case study, our client had a 317% ROI on their SEO investment. That's hard to find from other forms of marketing.
4. Local SEO puts you in front of local customers.
It's no secret that mobile search officially surpassed desktop. People are frequently using search terms like "coffee/dentists/restaurants near me" and are given results based on the businesses that fit the criteria with a certain geographical area. The great thing about these types of searches is that the user is typically local, looking for an immediate answer and is ready to make a decision. This creates an opportunity for you to generate local prospects who will quickly turn into customers.
5. Investing in SEO now will help you stay competitive.
As awareness about the value of SEO grows, your competitors are likely to start investing in it, if they haven't done so already. By investing in SEO, you can solidify your ranking positions for valuable keywords and stay ahead of your competition. If your competition invests in SEO and you don't, you lose out on the opportunity to have your business's name in front of valuable potential customers.
6. SEO supports your other marketing campaigns.
When you spend the time and money to invest in social media, email marketing, PPC, and offline marketing campaigns, you want to ensure you have the support system in place to make them successful. Most prospects nowadays will do their research before making a purchase. So, if someone sees a Facebook advertisement promoting your business, they're likely to search for your company to find reviews and make sure you're legitimate. By investing in SEO, you'll also build a strong online reputation and put your business in the position to turn prospects into customers.

Commiphora wightii is a flowering plant in the Burseraceae family, which is commonly known as the Torchwood family. Common names for Commiphora wightii include Mukul myrrh, guggul and Indian bdellium-tree. Mukul myrrh is closely related to Common myrrh, which is the primary source of true myrrh.
Mukul myrrh originates from northern India, although its natural range extends from central Asia to northern Africa. Mukul myrrh grows best in arid climates and has a high tolerance for poor soil. It is a small tree that can reach a height of 13 feet, with ovate leaves that can grow to a length of two inches. Mukul myrrh is gynodioecious, meaning that plants either bisexual flowers or female flowers. The flowers are red or pink, and the small berries become red when fully ripe.
The most commercially significant part of the Mukul myrrh tree is its resin, known as Mukul gum. Extracts of this gum have been used in the Ayurvedic system of traditional medicine in India for almost 3,000 years. The most common uses of Mukul gum in Ayurveda include weight management and relief from joint discomfort.
The main active ingredient in Mukul is guggulsterone, which is a steroid structurally similar to cholesterol. Guggulsterone's primary biochemical action is to act as an antagonist for the farnesoid X receptor, which is involved with cholesterol synthesis in the liver.
The maintenance of skin health is one of the most common uses of Mukul gum in modern herbal medicine. It is also used to maintain a healthy weight, digestive system and healthy cholesterol profile.
Mukul gum may be able to help maintain a healthy weight. The mechanism for this effect is believed to stimulation of the thyroid gland.
Mukul gum may help to support healthy skin. Common skin conditions that may be managed with Mukul gum include the discomfort, redness and swelling.
Studies show that Mukul gum may help to maintain a healthy cholesterol profile.
Mukul gum may be able to help support healthy inflammation management in the intestines. It may also be able to manage other digestive conditions such as bloating, cramping and gas.
Acne is one of the most common signs that you may need Mukul gum, especially when it is characterized by frequent outbreaks. Joint discomfort is also an indication that you may benefit from Mukul gum. Stomach cramps are one of the most significant signs that Mukul gum can help you, especially if these cramps are caused by irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS). Additional indications that you may need Mukul gum include an unhealthy weight or cholesterol profile.

Lieutenant Terry Bush says people living in a one-mile radius of the blast have been evacuated. A hazardous materials team is on the scene. Nortfolk Southern says it appears about 11 cars of a southbound train derailed around 2 a.m. Wednesday near I-71, southeast of The Ohio State University Campus. A Columbus Division Spokesman says authorities believe the cargo included some type of alcohol that could fuel the fire. A site at the State Fairgrounds has been set up to help about 100 evacuees.

Icelandic Flake Sea Salt
Icelandic Flake Sea Salt, 1 lb (454 g)
Icelandic Flake Salt is a delicious artisan salt produced with 100% geothermal energy. This is the flake salt of choice for consumers looking for an excellent salt made in an environmentally sustainable way.
Icelandic Flake Salt is a crunchy, mineral-fresh sea salt, produced using only energy from geothermal hot springs in northwest Iceland. The handmade, pyramid-like crystal salt flakes contain the flavor and taste of the Nordic region from which the raw materials come. Reykjanes, the source of the raw materials, has some of the cleanest seawater imaginable.
This Flake Salt contains 3 times more magnesium and 2 times more potassium than Celtic salt.*
Our Icelandic Flake Salt making method is based on a centuries-old method practiced in Reykjanes.
To create Icelandic Flake Salt, hot geyser water of 206 °F (93 °C) from the hot springs of Reykjanes is used during the pre-heating, boiling, and drying processes of the salt. Geothermal energy is the sole energy source used, which means we leave a zero-carbon footprint on the environment with absolutely zero CO2 and CH4 emissions created.
Sea water is pumped to open pans where it is pre-heated until it becomes a strong brine with a salinity level of 17-20%. The brine is then boiled until white crystals appear on the surface, which then slowly fall to the bottom of the pan.
The pan is drawn and any remaining liquid is drained. The salt is then dried and put into packages.
Icelandic Flake Sea Salt is one of the few entirely sustainable flaky sea salts in the world and contains many minerals necessary for the human body.*

At this point in the NFL Draft preparation process, it's really hard to tell the direction any team will really go in. Sometimes you can tell by the allotted visits, the type of positions teams are going by. That said, some teams use the visits to create a smokescreen to try to confuse other teams, or pressure other teams to take certain players so they can get who they want initially. There is a ton of cat and mouse games going on, which is certainly part of the intrigue. That takes us to the Miami Dolphins and their player invite behavior. Are they playing the smokescreen game, or are they for real in who they are targeting?
On Thursday, the Dolphins invited former BYU safety Kai Nacua. Nacua is the sixth safety the Dolphins have invited in their allotted 30 visits. A group that included stud former UCONN safety Obi Melifonwu. The focus on safety is interesting because already signed Nate Allen and T.J. McDonald this offseason.
Back to Nacua, he was not invited to the combine but ran a 4.48 at BYU Pro Day, which ranked him sixth overall at the position. He had six picks each of the past two seasons and has 14 career interceptions. Cleary a productive player who has been said to have great instincts.
Nacua seems like he's going to get drafted, whether it's the Dolphins is another question. The question today is whether or not the Dolphins are focusing so intently on these safety visits that their real strategy is to create a smokescreen. Will they draft multiple safeties, or are they going to go heavy on edge rusher, and this whole ordeal is just meant to distract the other teams. Is this one of those drafts where the DB position is so deep that now is the time to stockpile DBs as insurance for thinner future drafts. Who knows, we will only find out after the draft to see who the Dolphins actual select before we know whether or not they are just blowing smoke with these visits.

Never Seduce a Scot(133)By: Maya Banks
Then she felt an intense vibration blow through her ears. She knew he'd spoken, nay—he must have thundered it for her to feel it so keenly.
He lifted her hands and pressed them to his chest and then the words rumbled out of his chest again, fluttering through her ears until it caused an itching sensation deep within. It was almost musical, though she hadn't heard him exactly. But it was soft and soothing, the closest she'd come to actually hearing in three long years.
And suddenly she knew what it was he said. Nay, she hadn't heard the words, but she'd felt them. In her heart. In her very soul.
Her eyes flew open and she saw the evidence in his eyes. There for the world to see. The entire hall was silent and gaping at the hulking warrior on his knees before her.
"You love me," she said in wonder.
He smiled. "Was there ever any doubt?"
She turned to her father who was standing a few feet away, his arm around her mother. "He loves me!"
Her father's shoulders shook with laughter. "Aye, I think the whole of Scotland now knows it, lass. Do you not have anything to say back to the lad?"
Eveline turned to her husband, her hands leaving his to frame his face. The stubble of his beard rasped over her palms, but she cradled his beloved face in her hands, her thumbs smoothing over the hard lines of his cheekbones.
"I LOVE YOU!" she roared, determined to yell it every bit as loudly as he had.
There were winces throughout the hall. Others openly laughed. Still others applauded. There were wide smiles, but none as wide as her husband's. He grinned so broadly that his cheeks looked ready to split. Overwhelming joy danced in his dark eyes. He reached up to touch her face, his fingers trailing down her jaw.
"Aye, I know it, wife. And the whole of Scotland likely knows it now, too."
Eveline rode before Graeme on his horse, turned sideways so she was nestled firmly against his chest. One arm was wrapped solidly about her body, while the other held the reins and guided the horse up the rise that overlooked the Montgomery holding below.
He pulled up, pausing as they stared down over Montgomery land. He turned to look at Eveline so she would see all he had to say.
"Can you be happy here, lass?"
She smiled and turned her gaze to the beautiful land covered in green and budding flowers. "I am happy wherever you are, husband."
He touched her cheek so she'd look at him once more. "Those who betrayed you will no longer threaten you."
Eveline's expression saddened, her heart growing heavy. "What will be done to them?"
"The men were executed. Kierstan has been banished from the clan."
Eveline winced even though she knew there had been no choice. They had brought great danger, not only to her, but to the entire Montgomery clan. Many lives could have been lost. Kierstan had also threatened the safety of Eveline's own kin, the Armstrongs.
"Where will she go?" Eveline asked softly.
"I care not. She was given provision enough to make her way. 'Tis more than should have been done, but I'd not turn a woman out of my clan to die a certain death. What she makes of her life from now on is solely up to her."
" 'Tis as we all will do," Eveline said.
Graeme smiled down at her. "Aye, lass, 'tis a true enough statement. From this day forward, our lives and a new beginning in our clans' history will be what we make it."
Eveline smiled back, and then her gaze sought the beautiful vista before her. The great expanse of Montgomery land her own children would one day roam and lay claim to as their own.
"I think what will be made is greatness never to be rivaled by another clan in all of Scotland."
"Bold words, befitting the mistress of the Montgomery clan," Graeme said in approval. "Come, wife. Let's go home. I have a need to show my lass just how much her laird loves her."

Jesus, Santa, and Now "Sound of Music's" Mother Abbess?Roundup: Historians' Take
tags: theater, plays, Race, African history, religious history
Shannen Dee Williams holds a Ph.D. in history from Rutgers University. She is the 2013-2014 postdoctoral fellow in African-American studies at Case Western Reserve University and is currently revising her book manuscript, Subversive Habits: Black Nuns and the Struggle to Desegregate Catholic America after World War I. When completed, Subversive Habits will be the first historical monograph on African-American Catholic sisters in the twentieth century.
Earlier this month, veteran stage actress Audra McDonald gifted audiences with yet another sublime performance in NBC's live remake of The Sound of Music.
While the overall production received mixed reviews, critics across the country heralded McDonald's portrayal of Mother Abbess and her soul-stirring rendition of "Climb E'vry Mountain" as the television week's top highlight, with Time calling her "the show-stealer of the night."
Despite such acclaim, McDonald's portrayal of the majestic Mother Abbess was not without its detractors. But negative reviewers had nothing unflattering to say about the five-time Tony Award winner's acting or vocal abilities—instead, their opposition was chiefly rooted in the portrayal of the often-overlooked Mother Abbess as a black woman....
To say that there could not have been a black nun in a European convent in the modern era not only demonstrates a profound ignorance of the long and rich history of black Catholic nuns in the Atlantic world, but also reflects the egregious limitations of the white American racial imagination, which has for centuries equated blackness with moral debasement and vehemently denied the existence of "a virtuous black woman."...

Woodrow Wilson Two Raw Eggs In Fruit Juice
February 20, 2012 by staff
Woodrow Wilson Two Raw Eggs In Fruit Juice, On March 4th, 1913, Wilson was inaugurated the 28th President of the United States.
Soon after he took office, Wilson announced that he would do something no president in 113 years had done: address the Congress in person. Then he sat down at his typewriter, a machine which he had been one of the first Americans to embrace, and began tapping out his speech.
Woodrow Wilson I am very glad indeed to have this opportunity to address the two Houses directly and to verify for myself the impression that the President of the United States is a person, not a mere department of the Government hailing Congress from some isolated island of jealous power, sending messages, not speaking naturally and with his own voice – that he is a human being trying to cooperate with other human beings in a common service.
As he settled into his new job, Wilson established a strict schedule. He arrived at eight each day for a breakfast of coffee, oatmeal, and two raw eggs in fruit juice – "like swallowing a newborn baby," he said. He then dictated from nine to ten a.m. and saw visitors until one. After lunch with his family, he returned to his office.
Nearly all who came to see him there were struck by the President's deep sense of mission. When the chairman of the Democratic Party came to demand a job in return for helping Wilson win the presidency, Wilson told him that it was not the Democratic Party, but God, who had made him president.
Historian: John Morton Blum
A character in any President is an important part of the way he handles his office. Now in Wilson's case let's just take one aspect of his character, his certitude. His certitude that he was right. Now certitude is a great asset, when you have to fight for what you believe in and when you convince other people that your correct. But certitude is a serious obstacle when you're trying to achieve something to which there's a good deal of opposition and where it's necessary to compromise in order to have your way.

An estimated one-third of individuals positive for HIV are also infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Chronic infection with HCV can lead to serious liver disease including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Liver-related disease is among the leading causes of death in patients with HIV, and individuals with HIV and HCV co-infection are found to progress more rapidly to serious liver disease than mono-infected individuals. The mechanism by which HIV affects HCV infection in the absence of immunosuppression by HIV is currently unknown. In a recent article published in BMC Immunology, Qu et al. demonstrated that HIV tat is capable of inducing IP-10 expression. Further, they were able to show that HIV tat, when added to cells, was able to enhance the replication of HCV. Importantly, the increase in HCV replication by tat was found to be dependent on IP-10. This work has important implications for understanding the effect HIV has on the outcome of HCV infection in co-infected individuals. The findings of Qu et al. may inform the design of intervention and treatment strategies for co-infected individuals.
Please see related article: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2172/13/15.
A significant number of individuals with HIV are co-infected with serious human pathogens such as hepatitis C virus (HCV), which infects up to 170 million people globally [1]. Due to similar routes of infection for HIV and HCV, it is estimated that up to a third of people with HIV are co-infected with HCV [1-3]. With an estimated 34 million cases of HIV infection worldwide [4], this represents a disease burden for individuals with co-infection of HIV and HCV of greater than 10 million people. Prior to the era of effective anti-retroviral therapy, patients with HIV did not live long enough to suffer disease caused by chronic infection with HCV. However, as a result of the effectiveness of current anti-retroviral therapies, these individuals with HIV and HCV co-infection are now living long enough to be affected by disease caused by chronic HCV infection.
Liver-related disease is a leading cause of death in individuals infected with HIV, mostly due to co-infection with HCV [1,5,6]. There is an abundance of evidence that the normal progression of HCV pathogenesis is altered in the presence of HIV [7-10]. These studies have shown that individuals co-infected with HIV and HCV possess higher levels of HCV RNA, and progress more rapidly to serious liver disease, including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma [11]. Individuals with an HIV and HCV co-infection are also more resistant to standard HCV treatments than patients with an HCV mono-infection. For example, successful treatment with interferon/ribavirin in patients with an HCV genotype 1 mono-infection reaches 50% to 80% while in co-infected individuals effective treatment is reduced to 20% to 35% [1]. The mechanisms by which HIV affects HCV infection in individuals with a co-infection are currently unknown.
A number of research groups have sought to determine how HIV infection affects HCV in individuals that are co-infected. Multiple studies have identified elevated IP-10 (CXCL10) levels as a negative prognostic indicator for both HCV infection and HIV and HCV co-infection [12-14]. Further, elevated IP-10 levels were associated with the poor response to interferon/ribavirin therapy noted above [15]. IP-10 is a CXC chemokine that binds to the CXCR3 immune system receptor present on a number of cells, including monocytes, natural killer cells and T-cells [16]. Binding of IP-10 to CXCR3 induces chemotaxis of stimulated cells to sites of infection or injury. It is thought that elevated IP-10 could recruit T-cells from the periphery and within the liver, mediating the damage seen in cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma [17]. The mechanism by which elevated levels of IP-10 may affect HCV infection in individuals with HIV and HCV co-infection is not known.
Work by Qu et al., published in BMC Immunology, describes a potential molecular mechanism for the influence HIV has on HCV infection in individuals with HIV and HCV co-infection. Specifically, Qu et al. present findings describing a potential cause-and-effect relationship between HIV infection and increased HCV replication. HIV tat is shown to increase levels of IP-10 mRNA and protein and consequently enhance HCV replication. Importantly, IP-10 induction by tat is shown to be necessary and sufficient to increase HCV replication levels. Their data further demonstrate a synergism in the ability of HIV and HCV to induce IP-10: hepatocytes that were both infected with HCV and treated with HIV tat induced higher levels of IP-10 mRNA and protein than either HCV infection or treatment with HIV tat alone.
It is challenging for many to imagine a situation in which both HIV and HCV would find themselves in the same cell and thus in a position to affect the replication of one another. However, specialized immune cells, called peripheral blood mononuclear cells and Kupffer cells, are sites of infection for both HIV and HCV and the possibility exists that both HIV and HCV could find themselves in the same cell in an individual with a co-infection [18]. Experiments should be carried out to determine if tat-induced IP-10 can affect HCV replication in Kupffer cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. However, an interesting implication of the work presented by Qu et al. is that HIV does not need to be present in the same cell to exert an effect on HCV infection. Both tat [19] and IP-10 can act on cells distant from the site of HIV infection.
The work by Qu et al. poses many intriguing and important questions. Certainly it is important to determine the mechanisms by which HIV upregulates IP-10 expression and, more importantly, how IP-10 enhances HCV replication. CXCR3 receptor expression is not known to be expressed on hepatocytes [16]; thus, in the experiments described by Qu et al., IP-10 may be acting through an as yet unknown mechanism. Additionally, it was recently shown that induced IP-10 in patients with HCV infection was expressed in a truncated, antagonist form [20]. Cellular proteinases responsible for the conversion of IP-10 to its antagonist form are presumably absent in the experiments performed by Qu et al. It will be interesting to determine which form is important in individuals who are co-infected and whether the antagonistic IP-10 has a similar influence on HCV replication as found in the paper.
There are reports of a genotype-specific response to HCV treatments [15] and it will be necessary to determine whether IP-10's effect on HCV is genotype specific. Similar experiments will need to be performed using multiple genotypes. Further, these findings will need to be addressed in an in vivo setting, such as a humanized mouse or primate model, to assess the relevance of these findings to the pathogenesis of HIV and HCV co-infection. IP-10 is the only chemokine examined by Qu et al.; however, multiple chemokines are found to be differentially regulated in individuals with HCV-associated liver disease [17]. It will be important to determine if other chemokines are able to enhance HCV replication as shown in the paper by Qu et al.
An important consideration for HIV co-infection studies is whether the effect measured is due to HIV or whether the effect can be attributed to the immunodeficiency that defines AIDS [1]. The relationship between HIV and pathogens such as HCV in individuals with a co-infection is not simply one of opportunism, whereby the immunodeficiency caused by HIV creates a situation in which normally non-pathogenic organisms can cause disease. Rather, the direct or indirect interplay between pathogens in individuals with co-infection is presumed to alter the normal progression of the disease seen in individuals with a mono-infection. In the study by Qu et al., individuals who had progressed to AIDS (as determined by CD4 and CD8 counts) were included in the cohort to show a correlation between HIV, HCV and IP-10 levels. It will be important in future experiments to exclude individuals with an immunodeficiency as this confounds the interpretation of the effect of HIV infection on HCV viral load and IP-10 levels in those individuals. The low CD4 counts are likely responsible for some increase in HCV replication and, perhaps, the IP-10 levels reported. Still, the finding that upregulation of IP-10 expression by HIV tat can enhance the replication of HCV illuminates IP-10 and HIV tat as targets for therapeutic intervention in individuals co-infected with HIV and HCV.
The work presented by Qu et al. advances our understanding of the relationship between HIV and HCV in individuals with a co-infection, an area that is extremely important yet poorly understood. These findings have important implications for the rational design of therapeutic intervention to treat or prevent HCV liver disease in both individuals with HIV and HCV co-infection as well as those with an HCV mono-infection.

Report from today's practice
The former are a little nicer to look at, which is why I'll follow the trend of putting up pictures of them. Here's what the latter did out there today in shorts and shoulder pads …
* Before we get to the serious stuff, gotta point this one out. At one point during team drills, Tom Brady and three of his linemen staged a race behind the action, running from one sideline to the other. It was neck-and-neck early, but Stephen Neal pulled away late, with Brady second and Matt Light and Dan Koppen giving chase. Suffice it to say, Neal was pretty happy with himself.
* Among those not spotted at practice were WR Julian Edelman, S Bret Lockett, G Logan Mankins, and OT Nick Kaczur. WR Darnell Jenkins, LB Eric Alexander, TE Aaron Hernandez and LB Jermaine Cunningham were there, but didn't practice. And OT Mark LeVoir returned to practice after missing Monday.
* Rookie TE Rob Gronkowski looks dominant, or as dominant as you can in practice, and was particularly impressive in scoring touchdown after touchdown in red zone drills. He got separation a couple times in the back of the end zone, and on another play, bodied up Jerod Mayo, slipped a little push-off in there, and went up for a Tom Brady bullet by the goal post.
* There was a lot of rotation, personnel-wise, out there. But what I found interesting in particular was S James Sanders getting a lot of action with the first defense. Sanders was paired with Patrick Chung for a pretty extended period in there, before Brandon Meriweather came in to spell him.
* The team also seems to be easing Gary Guyton and Leigh Bodden back into the lineup. Darius Butler and Devin McCourty were the first right and left corners, respectively, with Butler kicking inside in the limited time Bodden joined them on the field. Guyton, meanwhile, worked behind Brandon Spikes and Mayo. Probably no big deal, with guys coming off nicks.
* Newcomer Quinn Ojinnaka saw time at both guard and tackle again with the reserve. These practices being in shorts, it's tough to make any judgment on him now.
* The defense hacked the coaches off during late 11-on-11s, prompting collective laps around the field on consecutive plays. Missed the reason for the first one, but I believe second one was a substitution issue — With 10 players out there before the snap.

I don't have the pattern but I think I know where you went wrong.
In step 1, your sewing the two edges of the right sides together of the outer fabric.
In step 2, your doing the same thing to the lining fabric, but skipping the open section on the side.
In step 3, layer these, one inside the other, with right sides together. Match up the unfinished edges and stitch around the top of them. I'm pretty sure this is where things got out of wack for you. If it still doesn't work for you, let me know.

There is only 93 days left until Coachella 2015 weekend 1 kicks off (April 10-12) and 100 days left for weekend 2 (April 17-19). The full Coachella 2015 lineup has now been released with full interactive social media, as well has having the ability to manage your personal lineup.
This year kicking of April 10 and for the 16th year running is not short of pure class and talent.
Tickets have gone on sale today, it is a three day event one weekend and then the following weekend the three day event starts again. Artists such as AC/DC, Drake and Jack White are hot headliners this year.
Over on this lineup page you can simply click on the name of person or band you like, and when you do it opens a whole new level of interactivity. If say you click on AC/DC it will show you all the official links such as AC/DC's website, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and Spotify. It also allows you to login to Coachella to add your lineup.
Some of the artists such as Azealia Banks has all the above interactivity, but she has a section called 'Playlist' and when this is clicked allows you to enhance your Coachella experience with Spotify.
Who are you looking forward to seeing the most at Coachella 2015?

August 28th, 2008, 07:30 AM #1Seeing Server Specifications?
I don't totally understand what I'm asking, but it was suggested I find out this information.
I want to know what the specifications are for the server that my site is on now... processor, ram size, hard drive size...without asking the hosting company.
Is there a way to find this info. out without asking the company that hosts my site?
August 28th, 2008, 08:46 AM #2
Your hosting company may have the specs on their website.
Some companies even post picture of their servers, buildings, conditions, etc.

You may also ask what capacity the server is running at.
50% or 99% etc
imo, if you don't have a name and direct phone number to contact your host you are at a loss.

Boomers that was what I was wondering. Thanks!

If it's a Linux server and you have SSH/telnet access to log in to the console, you may be able to get some of the info yourself with commands like cpuinfo, top, and df.
But if you're wondering about performance on a shared server, what matters more is how many sites are sharing the resources with you and how much of the CPU and memory they're using. For example, a Celeron server with 100 sites might serve pages faster than a Pentium Dual Core server with 500 sites, and a server with 500 low-traffic sites will be faster than 500 busy sites with server-heavy scripting.--

Here's a quick and dirty PHP script that MAY give you some information. It is possible that your host will not allow the script to get what it needs, but with luck it will give you some info. Hope it helps.
PHP Code:
$commands = array (
"CPU Info" => "cat /proc/cpuinfo",
"Memory" => "cat /proc/meminfo",
"Uptime" => "uptime",
"Disks" => "df",
foreach ($commands as $label => $command) {
echo "
$label
\n";
echo "

system ($command);
echo "

it's nice to know these things but the truth is specs don't mean squat if someone has a bad script taking up resources in a shared environment...you could have a slow box pushing 3 clients perform much better than a new super computer pushing 1000
it's all relative

How many red jeeps could he have possibly stumbled upon while walking around drunk?
rattusrattus | 18
Possibly whilst drunk, the Red Jeep Smasher was unable to discern between a genuine Red Jeep or other forms of red 4-wheel drive.
So what you're saying is you didn't read the fml? It says they were all the same.

Then it does seem a bit unlikely, unless it was either a Jeep dealer or a meeting of Red Jeep Owners of Virginia.

how does one slash the tires of a car a person presumably used to leave their home and hence not be home while you visited? Joe wouldn't ride in his wife's prius ever, lets all admit slashing a priuses tires is a favor to the red jeep community. RJC FOR LIFE!

Heart attacks are the sole reason for the innumerable deaths that take place every second of the day in a year. Recent statistics have shown that there are around 300 people who die of a heart attack in every 5 minutes in a day, and the reason being an improper diet and following a list of certain nasty bad habits.
Did you know that this number can be decreased if you take proper care of your health?
Well, it is also believed that one can predict a heart attack well in advance and this predication is done by testing the strands of hair on your head. Are you shocked? Well, recent studies claim that your hair health can actually predict a heart attack well in advance, giving you enough time to rush to the hospital to get yourself treated before you lose your life.
To predict a heart attack, the testing of a sample of your hair strand can be done on a yearly basis. This test is done to determine the stress hormone cortisol, which is the sole cause for heart attacks.
What is a heart attack?
A heart attack, or in medical terms a cardial infarction, occurs when the heart muscles are suddenly deprived of oxygen-rich blood. Heart attacks are often accompanied with chest pain, excessive sweating, shortness of breath, discomfort in the arms, back, shoulders or the jaw. One can also experience light-headedness or dizziness, cold sweat, nausea and fatigue.
How to predict a heart attack with hair?
The hormone cortisol is usually secreted during times of high stress. The hormone is found and can be measured in the blood, urine, and in the hair. According to scientists, the hair on our head grows slowly, which is on an average one centimeter per month for a normal human being.
Therefore, for a six-centimetre-long hair, a sample of it can actually show the amount of cortisol levels over a six month time period. If the hormone is richly present in the hair, this is a clear indication that the person is at a risk of a heart attack.
However, though this is a promising test, there is no clear sign that this is an assurance of predicting a heart attack at the earliest. On the other hand, it is stated that if the hormone level is very high, one can find ways to de-stress, so that you can keep other health issues at bay, apart from a heart attack.

AUSTRALIA and South Africa's next epic Test series could be played over four matches for the Kallis-Ponting trophy.
The two teams, who occupy No.2 and No.1 respectively on the ICC's Test rankings, have staged some memorable games over the past 20 years.
But in the post-apartheid era, the rivalry has always been limited to three-Test battles with the only exception being a two-Test series in 2011.
Cricket South Africa chief Haroon Lorgat confirmed his organisation and Cricket Australia (CA) were in advanced discussions about breaking the trend.
"We are very keen to play a four-Test series against Australia and we've gone some way to agreeing to that,'' Lorgat said.
"Although it's dependent on the calendar. If we can fit it in, then we will do that.''
The sides are next scheduled to square off in Australia over October-November 2016.
Cricket Australia chairman Wally Edwards was upbeat the two sporting bodies could find space for a four-Test series.
"You've got to recognise the quality of the cricket,'' Edwards said.
Lorgat and Edwards thrashed out the issue during last week's series decider in Cape Town, and also the prospect of giving the series added gravitas with a new name and proper piece of silverware.
"We initiated it (the discussions) ... Wally was very excited when we chatted at Newlands,'' Lorgat told South African website sport24.
"There is agreement that we want to enhance the narrative around series between our countries.
"For example, a proper naming of the series like the Kallis-Ponting trophy, is gaining momentum.''

2nd Annual Tiny House Village
The Tiny House Village is onto it's 3rd Annual at the 2018 Fresno Home & Garden Show. Located next to the Central Valley Landscape Competition on the south side of the facility, you will have plenty of time to view the latest trend in housing! Show goers will be able to explore a whole neighborhood of "tiny houses" and see what it's like to manage living in less than 400 square feet! Check out these unique, streamlined houses. Could this be the perfect compact kingdom to call home? Will you join the tiny house movement or stick with wide-open spaces? You may be surprised at the creature comforts offered in a limited living area...take a look!
This should be the news story on the airwaves right now. "The City of Fresno, California, allows property owners to subsidize mortgages by utilizing tiny houses as rental properties." In effect the city counsel and mayor of Fresno have rewritten the zoning laws specifically to allow Tiny Houses on wheels. This is a huge precedent! It is very different from other municipalities that have carved out specific areas where Tiny Houses are allowed. This rule allows property owners to relieve some stress from large mortgages and at the same time, allowing lower income individuals and families a pathway to living in better neighborhoods. The draw back is nominal and the payoff is a healthier society.

It's called a hard shutdown if you hold the start button in until the computer shuts down and it really doesn't hurt anything to do it once in awhile, if you have to do it very often then i would start looking into why.

I want to understand how exactly actors get movie or TV drama roles in Japan. We can only make a list of the best and worst casting choices without knowing anything that goes behind the casting. But then again, it's easy to make a list and hard to get those 'facts.'
Here's what we know:
- Production Committees make all the important choices, including the director and the cast;
- Talent agencies are part of these boards, and they have their roster of talents. Amuse got Haruma Miura, Takeru Satoh, Ryunosuke Kamiki; while Stardust manages Kento Yamazaki, Masataka Kubota, Yuya Yagira. Topcoat has Masaki Suda and Tori Matsuzaka. Of course, Johnny's got the idols including Junichi Okada, Nino, Kame, Toma Ikuta, Yuto Nakajima. Ken-On promotes Sota Fukushi.
- Cast and crew get low pay compared to their Hollywood counterparts; they can't even match what the Chinese or the Koreans are getting, according to many reports;
- The producers of a successful TV series, when adapted into a movie, will have 'priority seats' in the committee. Cast and crew can be same, or some casting choices have to be made to assure that there is a success in the box office;
- There is enough income to be had in the local market.
I think the real problems in commercial cinema are Japanese showbiz as a whole, specifically the idol industry and the whole culture of amateurish performance, overbearing management, and myopic fandom that surrounds it. There's also the adherence to an overly theatrical and simplistic style of drama that many viewers are accustomed to and demand, which is standard in television drama, and now in film too because the line between them has become so blurred. [ read more ]
- Amateurish performance;
- Overbearing management;
- Myopic fandom;
I wish young Japanese people to be more adventurous and open minded, and go overseas. Instead of locking themselves in the convenience of Japan, I wish that they meet a variety of people abroad. They should experience unexpected thoughts and values in order to enrich their lives. I think it would be too good to ignore for their lives just because feeling troublesome to go overseas.

Will Smith's Hancock Doing Late Reshoots
by Alex Billington
May 11, 2008
Source: SlashFilm
My good friend Peter over at SlashFilm was just sent a new photo from the set of Hancock. That's old news, right? Nope - it was taken in Times Square last Saturday night. How is that possible when the movie comes out in about a month? Apparently Hancock was doing very late reshoots in New York City yesterday, most likely as a result of the ratings troubles they've encountered that were detailed in this chat with director Peter Berg. Good news? Bad news? Neither really, but definitely interesting and worth noting. I think my interest in Hancock is definitely starting to increase the more I hear about it.
The photo below, taken yesterday, shows Will Smith in his leather superhero outfit that appears at the end of the most recent trailer. The report sent to Peter says that Times Square was packed with extras wearing 1980's-style brightly colored clothes. They shot for 12 hours total in order to get the updated footage that they needed. Principal photography actually finished last November and Peter Berg has been working on editing and the visual effects since then.
In the previous article that we published last week, Peter Berg had mentioned that the film "remained surprisingly sexual, violent and true in spirit to an original script," which had caused it to receive an R-rating twice from the MPAA. My guess is they hit a wall with the ratings board and had to go back and do reshoots in order to fix the issues. They can only edit, trim, and resubmit so many times before they realize the footage they have is R-rated no matter what.
If anything, this could be looked upon as a good thing. Instead of using the Fox method of crafty editing and audio dubbing, they just opted to reshoot it all from scratch. But then again, I could be missing the entire boat with my speculation and it could be a very bad thing. To be honest, I'm going to hold out and still hope for the best with Hancock. Although I hated it initially, I've flip-flopped entirely and now I'm hoping its great - especially with the more darker, violent side that Berg mentioned included.
Hancock is directed by Peter Berg, of The Rundown, Friday Night Lights, and The Kingdom previously. The film's script was written by over five different writers, including John August, Vince Gilligan, Akiva Goldsman, Vincent Ngo, and Peter Berg. Hancock arrives in theaters on July 2nd this summer - Will Smith's own 4th of July weekend spot.

Pippa Middleton is engaged, and OK! has again been caught lying. Allow Gossip Cop to explain what's going on.
On Tuesday, Middleton confirmed her engagement to James Matthews. The couple originally dated in 2012 before reuniting last year. They are now planning to wed in 2017.
The joyous news confirms what Gossip Cop has accurately said for years: Middleton has not been in a secret relationship with Prince Harry, as wrongly claimed by certain tabloids. Gossip Cop last busted OK! on this subject in April, when the outlet falsely alleged the two were having "secret dates."
So, is OK! now acknowledging its "reporting" was incorrect? Of course not. In its news story about Middleton's engagement, the magazine actually regurgitates its debunked claims, and tries to perpetuate the lies. "Sorry, Prince Harry! Pippa Middleton Is Now Engaged To James Matthews After Longtime Secret Fling," reads the headline on the OK! website.
Well, the tabloid should be sorry… for continuing to peddle this charade. "Despite their ongoing secret romance, Prince Harry has missed out on Pippa Middleton who is now engaged to her boyfriend of over a year," says the article. In actuality, Prince Harry hasn't "missed out" on anything.
And by even saying that Middleton is "now engaged to her boyfriend of over a year," the outlet is actually exposing that its months-old "secret dates" claim about Prince Harry was untrue. But if you read Gossip Cop, you already knew that.

Original Post re:relationship concerns
I'm just combining posts so that all of my story is here in my blog. This post may duplicate some of the information posted previously which was a snapshot of the situation.
I am in a polyamorous relationship with a couple. My official introduction to the parents is due to take place soon; however, I plan to tell my partners I think we should wait.
I don't feel the connectivity in the relationship when all three of us are together. Whenever we are supposed to have a 'group' discussion what ends up happening is 'they' have a conversation in detail and then 'he' filters the summary of the conversation and decision to me. That is a polygamous move- when the husband and primary wife discuss and decide and the results are passed on to the lesser wives. Also, when we are all together and my male partner wants to show something or say something, he specifically calls my female partner's name to share. Though I may be in earshot, I'm not really included in the conversation. There are other small things that I observe that continue to indicate they are still operating a dual partnership. So, basically, I have begun to feel more comfortable with them separately than I do with them together because at least that way I feel more 'in tune'.
Now, I noticed this from the beginning but, of course, I considered it to be something that would progress and change as the relationship developed; tried to consider the newness of the relationship (we've been together almost five months); and the fact that the relationship type in general is new to them after being married for 10 years (with sporadic swinging). However, as I have observed this behavior and tried to take it lightly, I decided I needed to speak up about it since it is something that I seem to look for now (because it seems inevitable) when we are together somewhat making me dread being together (all three of us) and it will begin to change the energy within me from neutral to negative if I do not speak up now. My brother tells me to stop using the newness of the relationship as a crutch to excuse these things.
Another point that I notice is that we always use 'time' as our reason for not being able to do things (get together and talk, hang out, etc) especially with my female partner BUT, as my male partner mentioned to me in a separate conversation last week, it's all about priority and sequence. Maybe it's not a priority at all or maybe it is on the priority list but sequenced so far down it never gets addressed. Now, my female partner can't ever seem to find the time to be available for a three party conversation but she finds the time to go meet up with other guys or go hang out with other friends or 'they' can find the time to have an in-depth conversation without me yet I'm free when they are free. My female partner also takes her sweet time to respond to my messages (I mean, like a day or two) which weighs heavier on me than I want to admit. I mean, if we are all equally invested, how does my male partner get a response and/or get a phone call yet mine gets ignored?
I don't want to end the relationship but the relationship I currently see is not the one I am aiming for.
So I have managed to have my discussion with my partners and a very interesting and vital revelation has come out of it. While my male partner understood and agree with me on my viewpoints and acknowledged they were things he needed to work on, my female partner told me that she was not as physically attracted to me as, she believes, I am to her and could probably take or leave the relationship because her focus is on personal goals (which is understandable). She basically stated that she would be interested in continuing to hang out with me and being friends but she does not desire the sexual aspect of the relationship.
I'm glad that information came out, though, I am upset to find out that (1) both partners have kept this knowledge hidden from me, (2) my female partner has basically subjected herself to interactions that she really didn't want with me, and (3) we really are not working towards what was originally discussed and I'm the last one to find out.
Pretty much, all of the concerns I originally had are null and void because, without her participation in building an all-inclusive poly triad, me not being included in their conversations; me not feeling a part of a 3-party relationship when we are all together; and me feeling that my female partner is not giving much effort into communication with me and building our relationship all revolve around a different type of relationship then what we, ultimately, are in and that was really the entire point of the conversation to begin with.
So, we somewhat pondered where we go from here ... and we are still pondering. As I have stated on the board and to my partners, a 'V' poly relationship was not my goal but that is where I am finding myself and in a secondary position. I don't know where I sit with that right now since I'm less than 30 minutes out of their presence. The original arrangement was that we would all only emotionally connect with each other. For me, that connection consisted of an all-inclusive companion/intimate relationship. With that no longer being the case, I know that I will not be emotionally fulfilled with just the connection between my male partner and I.
We spoke of our desire to have a live-in poly relationship in the future. They are working on having a baby. I mean, I'm now pondering the future as the time for these things draw near and concerned about how that will look...if they are still in the plans...what our roles will be...etc.

No Issue, Just a Question About A Setup Idea
Ok I am thinking it's time to start saving $$ up to buy a new toy.
I have 1x Gtx 570sc in my setup now (see specs for more info). So my question is:
Get 1x more Gtx 570sc and run SLI or Get 1x Gtx 460 2Win and run my 570sc as a physx card??
I will be running 3x Monitors. Computer is used for Everything, Including gaming!!
|My System Specs
|13 Sep 2011
Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1
SLI is so much faster than dedicated PhysX, not all games use PhysX so it'll make more sense to use SLI, get another 570
|My System Specs
|13 Sep 2011
I tend to agree, a second 570s to handle it all may be the better solution.
I also think the 570 would likely be overkill for dedicated PhysX.
Although I personally prefer to just run a single card, 3 monitors is certainly getting into SLI or dual GPU area.
From the choices you've listed, SLI 570s would be more powerful, as well as cheaper considering you already have 1.
So SLI 570s is the route Id take. I honestly do not think youll gain much from the 570 as a PhysX card to justify it.
|My System Specs
|13 Sep 2011
Win 7 Ultimate x64
PhysXInfo.com - Projects using PhysX SDK
19 games so far with 5 more still in development. Unless any of those games are a must have or you play them regularly, a dedicated Physx card isn't really worth it.
|My System Specs
|13 Sep 2011
Well the way I was looking at it was.... My 570sc is really all I need so far,plays what ever I want on max in games. For anything else I do It's already overkill...lol (Except for Tri-Screen) . BUT .. Since I need (want) 3x monitors I figured the 570sc for physX (because I have it already). Then for only about $50ish more (than 2nd 570sc) get the 460 2win(Dual-gpu) because it will run 3x monitors and spec wise it should play and run close to a "Single 580sc" which is more than My 570sc which does everything I need but the 3x monitor setup.
|My System Specs
|14 Sep 2011
Take a look at some of these benchmarks:
The 460 is a good card, but the 570 seems to be often on its tail.
When it does beat out the 570, its trading puches with the 580.
I mean, true its faster than a 570, but not by a great deal. Just like the 580. So is it worth the extra cost?
Your call obviously as to which you prefer, but I still think 2 570s would do much better, even while doing its own PhysX.
Was trying to find a benchmark test that had both in it, but having troubles doing so ...
Either way you decide to go, they should both do well for the setup you are wanting.
