I had a featured item, at the very beginning. And i think it's changed many things. I'm not talking about the sales only but first of all that moment gave me a standard, and since that moment i always want to do better and better. I remember when i did the research what kind of item is missing from here and what could be successful in sales. i keep doing this strategy and ad it seems like it works. Beside this strategy i also do some simple things even i know it can not be featured but also worth to do.
Oh yeah… and unlike Joiaco, who is full of humility i know about myself im not. (probably thats why she is my favorite author so far) I think its just does not fits to my real image. But i am frank and i can say it's one of the best g.damn feeling. The increasing income is nothing, compare to that. Nothing! I think if i ever got to be a featured author, i will be constantly drunk for 1 week, or so.
Sales when item is featured really depends on item. Last featured item, cute donuts illustrations, has 0 sales. I think these ilustrations are awesome, but if nobody needs them, featuring not make sales. My item was featured two weeks ago. I was a little surprised because there is so many items that deserves it more, but i am quite happy with that. It at least doubled the sales on this item. I got 77 sales on it last week and it is last week top seller.

I had talked about this with some old frieds here, and they said that it was a huge impact on sales.
Personally I'm still waiting for that moment, I'm here for about 3 years too and is really sad to see some new authors with just simple files being featured instead of some many great and stable old authors being ignored over time.
It's really disappointing

Am I the only one creeped out by the way women are being threatened in these 'cute' bookends?
pipenta says:
Ah, doing your bit to make women feel uncomfortable and like second class citizens on the internet, eh? Because how could our feeling creeped out possibly matter? And why settle for simply undermining us when you can amplify our sense of discomfort?
pipenta says:
No, that was my first thought too. Mind you, those happen to be the examples featured on BB and there are plenty in this artists line that aren't like that.
pipenta says:
The first one is stronger, design wise than the second. The implication of the chainsaw penetrating the books is fun, even if the woman as victim thing is icky. But you know, it's just the thing for a apartment decor for a male cluster B livin' the swinging single life. And you just know how those abusers like to give clues to what they are about. Think of this particular set of bookends as a handy signaling device.
The designs are attractive. The elephants are especially cute. But other than this chainsaw, the whole idea of the space that is the books themselves hasn't been utilized as cleverly as it might. I'm thinking a Pyramus & Thisbee set (books as wall), or one with Hans Brinker on one side and an underwater scene on the other (books as dike) or things of that sort.
And instead of a psychopath trying to chop up a victim, how about a pair of lumberjacks/jills using a double-handled saw to cut down a tree (the books)?
Antinous / Moderator says:
I think that he may just be trying to destroy Best Loved Poems of the American People, which seems like a noble effort.

It took me a day to get that. Gah! (In my defense, I was trying to cut out caffeine and had no coffee yesterday. This morning I came to my senses and had a cup. Now my brain is working again).

The edt is fine, but I love the depth and intense heliotrope of the edp(not sure is Guerlain have toned it down now?).
I wanted to know if any of the notes in in the EDT came out compared to the EDP. I would be wearing the EDT year round. Obviously there is going to be a shorter longevity and what about the sillage? Should I hold out for the EDP or is the EDT OK?
Kind Regards,
Be yourself! Everyone else is taken!
The edt is fine, but I love the depth and intense heliotrope of the edp(not sure is Guerlain have toned it down now?).
You should know that Guerlain reformulated L'Heure Bleue recently. To my nose when quickly sampling the current EdP in Paris last April it seemed that (part of) the florals were replaced by synthetics, which made it sharp. L'Heure Bleue is all about the floral harmony, the heliotrope note in particular, to me, which I find presented best in the EdP. Vintage (brown) jus on ebay (EdT and Extrait) tend to bring the base to the foreground as floral notes are vulnerable and less longlived. I'd try to find a slighltly used EdP from a perfumista, which is a few to a couple of years old (check batch code on bottle bottom by using cosmeticswizard.net).

Subspecialty Careers: Highlights about Careers in Internal Medicine: Rheumatology
The Discipline
From the Greek word rheuma, "that which flows as a river or stream." In ancient medical writings, "rheuma" was used to describe any thin discharge from a body surface or orifice. This term was eventually applied to an infection of the joints, presumably because an effusion of the joint space marks the various forms of arthritis.
Rheumatology deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and management of crystalline diseases, systemic rheumatic diseases, spondyloarthropathies, vasculitis, inflammatory muscle disease, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, recreational sports injury, soft-tissue diseases and trauma. The goal of the rheumatologist is the early diagnosis and treatment of these conditions to prevent disability and death.
Important procedural skills include diagnostic and therapeutic joint aspiration, and joint and soft tissue injection of corticosteroids. Rheumatologists are expert in the interpretation of joint fluid analysis, including crystal identification, and the interpretation of serology associated with rheumatological disorders.
Rheumatology fellowship training requires two years of accredited training beyond general internal medicine residency. Of the two years, a minimum of 12 months must include clinical training in the diagnosis and management of a broad spectrum of medical diseases. Dual certification in Rheumatology and Allergy and Immunology requires a minimum of three years of training which must include (a) at least 12 months full-time clinical rheumatology, (b) weekly attendance for 18 consecutive months in a rheumatology ambulatory care program which must include continuity of patient care, and (c) at least 18 months of full-time allergy and immunology.
The American Board of Internal Medicine ABIM offers certification in Rheumatology. Dual certification in Rheumatology and Allergy and Immunology requires completion of the entire three-year program.
Training Positions
As of August 2005, there were 108 ACGME-accredited training programs in Rheumatology. 61% of the trainees were female, and 62% were US medical graduates.
Approximately 65% of the graduates enter clinical practice in Rheumatology in the United States, and 26% enter academic medicine.

FRIDAY HOMILY: Unclean.Unclean? No, Awake, Awake!
What to do with a leprous nation.
What attracts me to this subject is a fundamental change in the values of society as a whole. This has me vexed. Not only do I find homosexual activists celebrating the victory, but - from social media - I see members of my extended family, acquaintances and former work associates joining in the festivities, citing some type of great altruistic victory for mankind.
What attracts me to this subject is a fundamental change in the values of society as a whole. This has me vexed. Not only do I find homosexual activists celebrating the victory, but - from social media - I see members of my extended family, acquaintances and former work associates joining in the festivities, citing some type of great altruistic victory for mankind.
In reflecting on this while studying the gospel passage for today, a theme emerged that I want to explore - that we are becoming a leprous nation.
In Matthew's Gospel, chapter 8 verses 1 through 4,, we are now finished with the Christ's Sermon on the Mount. As Jesus comes down the mountain, he is met by a leper who wanted to be made clean.
Leprosy was a major problem in New Testament times. Those who were infected were exiled into colonies to keep their contagious disease from spreading. Many lepers were horribly disfigured by the disease and often concealed their appearances when around the general public.
Scholars disagree as to the exact nature of leprosy, believing that it not only included what would be considered leprosy today but also other diseases that disfigured or affected people with physical changes. Whether or not that is the case, the condition, which we now call Hansen's Disease, was definitely a major contributor to the leper population.
We normally think of leprosy as a skin disorder, it's greatest impact in in the peripheral nervous system that extends from the brain and spinal cord. Those stricken can experience disfigurement of the skin and bones, including tumors. The limbs can be twisted and fingers curled like a claw. Sometimes the nose will collapse and the outer ear will grow thick.
The greatest impact, however, comes from the bacterium, which destroys nerve endings that carry pain signals to the brain. Lepers, upon losing pain sensitivity, are subject to injury and infection without knowing that anything is wrong.
As I read over this gospel passage again and again, I'm reminded of the different kinds of leprosy that we can experience. Through the constant bombardment by the world the flesh and the devil, we can become dulled in the heart and undergo a kind of spiritual leprosy. This seems to be what our nation is going through right now.
For example, it would seem that we, as a society, no longer seem to have the same sensitivity to the pain of sin as we used to have. Not only do we see our courts dulled to moral virtue and the common good, a growing segment of our population seem to be unaware that their consciences are no longer pricked by overt sensuality, abuses regarding the dignity of the human person, the death of unborn children and the decay of language, among other things.
In January of 2003, Fr. Patrick Henry Reardon authored an editorial in Touchstone Magazine that highlighted the very concern I'm raising. Ten years ago the spotlight was particularly on abortion. Now natural marriage and religious liberty are also at risk.
"We are not convinced, therefore," Fr. Reardon writes, "that a judicial reversal of Roe v. Wade, though it remains a favor much to be craved, would necessarily diminish the number of legal abortions performed in this country. More likely, such a development would simply shift the pertinent political agitation back to the state legislatures, where, we suspect, the pro-life cause would lose more battles than its proponents contemplate. Law and politics, we contend, lie downstream from culture, and the current cultural state of our nation, particularly with respect to abortion, seems to us not one whit better than it was during the years leading up to 1973.
"Politics and law, we said, lie downstream from culture. Therefore, the real and deeper dilemma, the dilemma arguably as disturbing as abortion itself, is cultural." (Underscores are from me)
We are not only facing a political battle but a cultural epidemic, where a segment of the population has been infected and no longer sensitive to the moral and spiritual values that were inherently present at the founding of our nation. Truly, our founders probably never envisioned that this would happen.
We are not the first nation to experience this, nor will we be the last. The problem remains, however, that without some kind of major intervention, this leprous condition will simply destroy its host.
During the brief history of the United States there have been some great spiritual awakenings. The term "awakening" seems quite appropriate as many seemed to awaken from their spiritual passivity and re-connect with their faith. Called "revivals" or "renewals" by some, these events seemed to be introduced into a culture with some surprise. The same can be said for similar movements of God in Great Britain and Europe.
While these events almost appeared out of nowhere, most who studied these phenomena have realized that they have occurred as a result of fervent and constant prayer by those concerned with the current state of affairs.
We are at the midpoint of the Fortnight of Freedom, which has been proclaimed by our bishops as a time of prayer and intercession for our nation. We are being called upon to fulfil our responsibilities as Catholic patriots in called America back to God.
It would seem that without divine intervention we are heading for harder times. Yet, the spread of leprosy can be abated when those affected will, as in today's reading describes, cry out to the Lord and say, "Lord, if you wish, you can make me clean."
This is not a time to give up; this is a time to stand up and pray.
Our first prayer should be for our Church, that God would awaken the sleepers who need to join the rest of us in this season of intercession. We need to pray for the grace and strengthening of God to enliven them to action.
At World Youth Day in the year 2000 in Rome, Pope John Paul II looked out on the millions of young men and women present and said, It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be grounded down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal.
These are the qualities of the army of intercessors needed today!
Then we need to pray for our nation and our leaders, praying fervently and regularly.
A quote from Edmund Burke perhaps may be overused in recent days, yet the truth that underlies his comment is anything but cliché. He said, "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Now is not the time to do nothing. Let us stand up as Catholic patriots and pray that the healing hand of the Lord be extended over the leprosy of the land.

Excellent article, unfortunately. Prayer is paramount. May God strengthen us to live our faith.

Thank you. Clinton. You nailed it. An end of days type of evil has made it's way to us on the narrow path and we can see the wide path of destruction clearly now. We will all be hated and suffer for what we believe in sooner or later. I can see the cross hairs on Christians because what we believe is dangerous to those that oppose the Lord. The kingdom is truly near. Remember the sinful will store up and make the way for the meek. Be blessed!!

Can we isolate the lepers of society again today???
I say yes, and one of them are the registered sex-offenders.
Besides being unconstitutional in the pursuit of their happiness, we are not God to look into their heart and forever condemn them for life.
No matter how heinous a man or women's crime has been, it is even more heinous to impede in any way their full rehabilitation and repentance. -

It is sad that many people even conservatives who should be fighting to keep our Christian heritage are in favor of the Supreme Court's decision. I was disappointed to hear about yet another judicial activist decision by the Court since Roe v Wade just like the author of the article. However, I was even more disappointed when I saw the comments on the Yahoo article which proclaimed the "historic gay rights decision". Many of the comments, even those from people who would normally disagree with the left wing in this country, seemed to be in favor of the decision. One person even said that the Court upheld "state's rights". Another so called "conservative" said that he thought that the gays had a good reason to celebrate. "The Government should not tell people that they can't marry" was what he said. This country is truly in dire straits when even "right wingers" are in favor of "marriage equality". What will be next? Polygamy?

This is very timely, and something my husband and I were just discussing yesterday. A cousin of his had made a post on Facebook recently about how our culture has become an increasingly "dirty window", and the dirtier it gets, the less we notice when a little more dirt is smeared on. This article strikes a similar chord, in that we've become largely desensitized to just about everything, good or bad. We do not recognize the dignity of every human person, we are increasingly blase' about the culture of death. Therefore, the worse it gets, the less shocked we are. What happens when the window is completed blacked out?

Thank you, Fr. Randy, for this excellent article; the premise is so true!
It seems to me that the three great death-blows being delivered to Western Civilization are:
1. Abortion
2. Sexual insanity
3. Euthanasia
But I think it's worth noting that these three death-blows (working in conjunction with pride, greed, envy, sloth, and all the other deadly sins) are killing the entire world through a "hegemony of death" that is aimed at the human race as a whole and at the human person as such. As difficult as it is to accept, God's Creation of the human person -- a being, created male and female, who is an integration of soul and body -- is, itself, under attack. Just today, in a popular weekly publication in Toronto, I read the headline "The end of gender ... as we know it". The "as we know it" part is really a trite, half-frightened attempt to soften the blow. "The end of gender" says it all. So we see that the devil will settle for nothing less that the complete dismantling of the Image of God in Man -- of our capacity to conceive of the God who creates and sustains us. The devil is the mastermind behind all this, not politicians, judges, media executives, or international banks, who are pawns.
Given the nature of this all-out spiritual attack, our first line of defense as Christian has to be prayer for the Church and for ourselves so that our own love for Jesus does not grow cold due to the overflow and constant assault of evil. And I am coming to see that not growing cold means being willing to suffer spiritual pain over our sins and the sins of the world -- to accept that allowing ourselves to feel and endure the pain of sin is precisely what Christ did on the Cross. In this way, we share His suffering in a more intimate way than most of us have ever experienced before. This is the power of the Cross -- the power of love!
In Christ,

Collection World War II Military Situation Maps
Show Featured ItemsThe Battle of the Bulge
A timeline of the Battle of the Bulge told through the daily situation maps made for the US Military VIII Corps.
December 16, 1944
- In a quick glance at the situation maps from October to December 1944 the eye is drawn to an area with few unit symbols along the Allied and German front lines in the Ardennes. During the autumn of 1944, the American front line was typically held by four or fewer divisions. The December 16th situation map shows the front line in this sector thinly held by the U.S. Army VIII Corps comprised of the 106th Infantry Division, 28th Infantry Division, the reduced 9th Armored Division, and the 4th Infantry Division arrayed from north to south. The VIII Corps headquarters was located in Bastogne. The VIII Corps was holding the southern edge of the U.S. First Army front lines adjacent to the U.S. Third Army. Also notice that throughout the autumn until December 15, the maps show a similarly small number of German infantry divisions behind the Siegfried Line opposing VIII Corps. By 12:00pm on the first day of the attack, December 16, there were twice as many German divisions, including two panzer divisions, identified in the sector moving against VIII Corps. During the next four weeks the situation maps show many interesting developments as the battle progressed.
December 18, 1944
- Two distinct German advances appear. One in the north and one in the center of the sector. The northern advance is along the edge of VIII Corps' area of operations adjoining V Corps. The advance in the sector's center is pointed at VIII Corps' headquarters in Bastogne.
December 19, 1944
- The German drive towards Bastogne has almost reached the town while the VIII Corps headquarters has relocated to Neufchateau. Notice that the 101st Airborne Division is shown in Bastogne and the 82nd Airborne Division has moved to blunt the northern German advance.
December 21, 1944
- The German main advance through the center of the Ardennes sector has moved in a narrow corridor northwest to Marche after bypassing Bastogne. The 84th Infantry Division has moved to block the German northwestern advance.
December 23, 1944
- Bastogne's envelopment begins as the German main advance widens and moves north and south of the town. However, the 4th Armored Division, 10th Armored Division, 26th Infantry Division, and the 80th Infantry Division from General Patton's Third Army have moved against the southern flank of the German main advance.
December 25, 1944
- The 101st Airborne Division is shown as encircled in Bastogne with three German infantry division and one panzer division deployed around the town. The distinct bulge in the American front lines that gave the battle its name has formed.
December 27, 1944
- The encirclement of Bastogne is broken as the 4th Armored Division moves up from the south. With American units pushing from the north and south, the German advance stops and bulge is contained.
January 1, 1945
- The reinforced British 6th Airborne and 53rd Infantry Division are shown moving against the western tip of the German advance. Notice that some German units that were identified in the bulge on earlier maps have begun to be listed as Unlocated in a box on the right portion of the map near Frankfurt.
January 3, 1945
- Three German Panzer divisions are shown withdrawing from the front lines toward the interior of the bulge.
January 15, 1945
- As the bulge is further reduced, notice the nine German divisions concentrated in western tip of the bulge.
January 18, 1945
- The bulge caused by the German advance has been reduced to a slight curve in the front lines.

The Jung and Restless by Iowahawk Feb 4, 2013 5:16 PM PT In response to Psychoanalyzing the Left:Ace - like a lot of cherished lefty ideas, meritocracy (with wise elders bestowing credentials on the deserving) began with good intentions. Ancient China had civil service service exams as far back as the Han Dynasty (200 BC), as a bulwark against nepotism and favoritism. And, lest we forget, Plato was pretty cool with the whole idea of philosopher kings.Continue reading Share This: Read more

New America vs. Old America at the Super Bowl by Ben Shapiro Feb 4, 2013 1:43 PM PT Leave aside the theatrics of gyrating prostitute-lookalikes during halftime. The real contrast in American culture was in the commercials. It pitted an ad featuring Paul Harvey talking about American farmers against a Coke ad featuring glorification of leftists tagging private property. The contrast is stunning. In one, we hear about the greatness of Americans -- the value of hard work and compassion, the value of commerce, of providing goods Americans need. In the other, we see the most superficial depiction of peaceful values -- graffiti on presumably privately-owned property. The old school commercial demonstrates why America was great; the new school demonstrates why America may not be great for long. Share This:
Super Bowl halftime and the culture of self-regard by John Hayward Feb 4, 2013 11:13 AM PT Thankfully, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has informed an anxious nation there is "no indication at all" that Beyonce's halftime show caused the Super Bowl blackout. It used enough energy to electrocute a Japanese movie monster, but the show apparently had its own generator.There has been some grumbling about whether the sexy stage review was inappropriate for the Super Bowl. A review of the heavy advertising peppered through the Super Bowl leads me to believe that the people voicing this complaint don't watch many football games, and are not entirely clear on who does.

Brrrrr by Iowahawk Feb 4, 2013 6:17 AM PT A lot of people have a Super Bowl Sunday ritual. Mine is to bundle up, fill the Thermos, and meet up with Chicagoland's coldest hot rod show: the annual Bare Bones C.C. Polar Bear Cruise. This year's edition wended its way through the western 'burbs, with stops at TL Customs in East Dundee and Burkhardt Custom Cycles in Addison. One hardy chap braved the 18 degree temps in a hot rod roadster fire truck, earning the coveted Brass Monkey award. In between gulps of coffee and donuts, I captured a few shots of the machinery.

Twins Trade former fringe prospect Duke Welker for a LH schulb.

Man, seems like a lot of confidence in the bullpen to let Welker go for almost nothing.
