'Symbol of Peace' goes viral
As violence continues between Israeli forces and Hamas, a selfie taken by Sulome Anderson has gone viral on Twitter, sparking a symbol of peace in the Middle East. The photograph shows Arab-American journalist Anderson and her Israeli-American boyfriend kissing while Anderson holds a piece of paper reading "Jews and Arabs Refuse To Be Enemies."
The statement has now become a hashtag and resulted in thousands of tweets and retweets from around the globe calling for peace. Anderson states in a NY Mag essay they "posted the picture without a second thought" to support a then little-known Facebook page. She admits now that the response is "scary and overwhelming. But we both know that afraid is the wrong way to feel about it."
He calls me neshama, I call him habibi. Love doesn't speak the language of occupation #JewsAndArabsRefuseToBeEnemies pic.twitter.com/CpqwxNM6ys

David Jones launches collection via YouTube
In a move from the retailer who is usually behind competitors in the digital space, David Jones has kicked off its new spring and summer collection with a 90-second video piece via it's Youtube channel. The highly stylised video titled 'Explore S/S14 David Jones Film' features Jessica Gomes, Montana Cox and other models on a playful journey through cities, beaches and forests as directed by Jeffrey Darling. The video can be seen on David Jones' newly launched Youtube channel which coincides with the launch of content environment website 'Style HQ'.
Mobile social users engage more with brands
Mobile social users are more likely than their desktop-only equivalents to 'like' branded content, according to a survey of 37,000 US online adults. The study asked recipients if they liked something a company posted at least once per week; 49% of tablet users and 46% of those using smartphones said that they did, compared to 37% of desktop/PC-only users. Meanwhile, 64% of US online adults access social media through desktops/laptops, 45% on smartphones and 25% tablets.
Facebook releases Q2 results
Facebook released its Q2 results last week and they contained some impressive numbers. Monthly active users (MAUs) have grown to over 1.3 billion, up from 1.276 billion in Q1, while mobile MAUs now total 1.07 billion (vs. 1.008 billion last quarter).
The real success, though, is financial. Total revenue has increased to $2.9bn, the company's biggest quarterly total, up from $2.5bn in Q1.
Ad revenue for the quarter amounted to $2.68bn, of which 62% came through mobile. Indeed 30% of the network's MAUs access it solely through mobiles or tablets, leading to discussion about the potential for a mobile-only version of Facebook. Ad prices more than doubled last quarter, too, allowing Facebook to increase its revenue while reducing the number of total ads. These figures combined have led to a valuation of $192bn, more than Disney or Toyota, which is 128 times its profits for the whole of last year.
LinkedIn adds new ad capabilities
LinkedIn has launched 'Direct Sponsored Content', a new ad format that will allow advertisers to test, tailor and target content, much like they do on Facebook. The new system will compliment 'Sponsored Stories', the main difference being the ability to target different messages at specific audiences.
LinkedIn buys Bizo
Some more big ad news from LinkedIn: the network has purchased business-to-business digital advertising company, Bizo, for $175m. Deep Nishar, LinkedIn SVP of product and user experience, said of the move:
Our ability to integrate [Bizo's] b-to-b solutions with our content marketing products will enable us to become the most effective platform for b-to-b marketers to engage professionals.
Foursquare sheds check-ins
Foursquare has launched the latest version of its main app, through which you can longer check in. To do so, users will now need to use 'Swarm' – the main Foursquare app is being reinvented as a discovery service, similar to the likes of Yelp.
'The Giver' produces Kik campaign
A new film for young adults, named 'The Giver', is launching a campaign on messaging app, Kik. The film's promoters have created a card that contains a trailer, trivia and film-branded stickers, all of which can be shared with other users within the app.
Applebee's looks for Instagram 'Fantographers'
Over the next year, US restaurant chain, Applebee's, is to populate its Instagram feed with content from 'Fantographers'. First, users opt in for a microsite, then anything shared using #Applebees or #Fantographer is eligible to be posted by the brand. Each image will have a border added, like so:
adidas and Champs Sports launch #adicolorTV
adidas has joined up with Champs Sports to produce a set of four online shows hosted on Instagram. The campaign, dubbed #adicolorTV, is being run through the Champs Sports page.
Expedia wants throwback photos
Expedia is looking to tap into the 'Throwback Thursday' trend on Instagram and Twitter by asking users to tweet such photos @Expedia using #ThrowMeBack. Each week, one winner is selected to receive a voucher, so that they can revisit the site of their photo.
Prime TV to reveal everyone's favourite child
A new season of Modern Family is set to premiere on New Zealand's Prime TV, which has created a Facebook app for the occasion. The 'Favourite Child Detector' analyses your Facebook history and ranks you and your siblings based on interactions from your parents.
Michelle Phan being sued over music licensing
Here's a cautionary tale to any brands and content creators using other people's music or images withour permission. YouTube star, Michelle Phan, is being sued by electronic dance music label, Ultra, for allegedly using its music without the proper permissions. Phan sells adverts against her channel, and also uses it to promote her makeup line.
Captain Morgan made to remove Facebook post by ASA
Diageo-owned rum brand, Captain Morgan, was forced to remove a Facebook post, after the UK's Advertising Standards Authority ruled that it implied alcohol helps conquer boredom. The text read "Wednesday. I'm declaring war on mid-week boredom", so you can sort of see where they're coming from.
David Mitchell writes a short story on Twitter
David Mitchell, author of 'Cloud Atlas', has released a short story piece-by-piece on Twitter. It's taken 280 tweets – here's how it starts:
We get off the Number 10 bus at a pub called 'The Fox and Hounds'. 'If anyone asks,' Mum tells me, 'say we came by taxi.'

We Are Social's Tune-Up #141
Facebook can automatically identify music and TV
For the last year, Facebook users have been able to share how they're 'feeling', or what they're 'watching' or 'listening to'. The network has now expanded the feature, allowing iPhone, iPad or Android microphones to automatically identify music and TV programmes, which can be shared as updates using the normal 'listening to' or 'watching' format. Facebook has promised not to retain any data from the system, which is being rolled out to US users in the coming weeks.
Facebook looking to rival online dating sites
Facebook is testing an 'Ask' button, which allows one user to enquire into another's relationship status. Mashable pointed out the button's huge potential and its significance for the online dating world; with such a huge user base, Facebook could quite easily become a rival to the likes of eHarmony and match.com. The Guardian, however, was much less positive, discussing the likelihood of unnecessary pestering and oversharing.
Facebook rolls out 'I'm a Voter' button
During the Indian elections in May, over 4 million Facebook users clicked on a new 'I'm a Voter' button. As a result, Facebook is expanding the feature to the EU, Colombia, South Korea, Indonesia, New Zealand and Brazil. It's already seen success in America, too, where its launch during the 2010 mid-term elections was credited with mobilising 340,000 extra voters.
Facebook changes privacy settings
Facebook has responded to pressure and changed its default privacy settings. Those joining from Thursday will now automatically share updates with only 'friends and family', rather than the whole public. The change won't affect current users, who will be prompted to perform a 'privacy check up'.
Facebook expands premium video ads to new markets
Facebook is expanding its premium video ads, rumoured to cost $1m per day, to the UK. They could start to appear as early as June, but will be expected to take off in September, during the busy 'back to school' period for key retailers, Tesco and ASDA. The ads, which have been available in the US since March, will also be heading to Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany and Japan.
Nielsen Twitter TV Rating to provide demographics
Nielsen's Twitter TV Rating service now includes demographic information on tweet authors. So far, the data collected varies hugely between programmes: sport skews 79% male, reality 65% female. The youngest audience counted 98% of its members under 35, while the oldest saw 85% over 35.
Pinterest adds third party analytics
Pinterest is launching a new analytics API that will allow select partners, such as Salesforce and Hootsuite, to offer a range of Pinterest business insights. The move will not affect Pinterest's own in built analytics tool.
Vivid Snap photography app adds new dimension to popular festival
Sydney's popular Vivid Festival kicked off last Friday, and this year it's being supported by an extra app in addition to the official guide and planner. Vivid Snap is a photography app that lets users integrate light art into their festival snaps before they share them with their friends.
Tweet of Origin launched ahead of State of Origin game one
Twitter data collected during tonight's State of Origin match between New South Wales and Queensland will be taken from the Nine Network's 9jumpin iOS/Web app to generate real-time stats showing which state is getting the most online support. The result of a collaboration between Nine and Mi9, 'Tweet of Origin' is drawing data from the #Origin hashtag and representing sentiment in a meter. Up the Blues!
adidas allows customers to 'Instagramize' shoes
adidas is allowing buyers of its ZX Flux trainers to customise them with their favourite Instagram photos. The process, referred to as 'Instagramizing', is shown in the below update from the brand.
Miller Lite is creating a social TV ad
Chicago-based beer brand, Miller Lite, is launching a TV commercial made up of user-generated content from Twitter. Anyone who tweets a picture using #ItsMillerTime will be eligible for the chance to win $1,000 and a place in the ad.
Budweiser's social efforts for the World Cup
Budweiser is ramping up its social efforts as official beer to the 2014 World Cup. It's launching a 'Rise as One' microsite to act as a hub for various video and photo content and will also ask fans to vote for their man of the match on Twitter after each game. On site in Rio, there will be a branded hotel, which is set to include an Instagram booth and Facebook studio.
Save The Children launches #Vlog4Good
Save The Children is looking for a new face for its YouTube channel, and is planning to find them through social. Applicants will be given one minute to explain, on video, why they should win the 12 month paid position, in which they'll be expected to 'reinvent' the charity's editorial approach for the platform.
We Are Social create social viewer for STA Travel
We Are Social has created a campaign for STA Travel, encouraging young Australians to travel domestically. The brand will host a social version of a '3d viewer', allowing users to create their own reel from influencers' Instagram photos and develop a personalised Australian experience.
Holiday request sets Twitter alight
After an innocuous holiday request by security guard, Greg Heaslip, was sent to every employee at Arcadia group, #GiveGregTheHoliday started trending on Twitter. This led to a piece of reactive marketing by Trek America:
We're taking action and have decided to #givegregtheholiday. A TrekAmerica mini adventure with flights to Vegas. #GregGotTheHoliday!
— TrekAmerica (@trekamerica) May 22, 2014
He also received other prizes, including a tuxedo. However, he's decided to donate everything to the Stephen Sutton charity and go to Chessington World of Adventures, as he originally planned – a real-life example of a 'Good Guy Greg'.
Asos upset Jodie Marsh with 'man' Twitter comment
Online fashion retailer, Asos, upset glamour star turned bodybuilder, Jodie Marsh last week, when they used her image to refer to models who 'look like a man'.
Marsh took to Twitter to voice her anger, referring to the company as 'bullies'. As a result, Asos has donated £10,000 to an anti-bullying charity and apologised to Marsh. RetailWeek analysed what the 'fail' means for brands, including advice by We Are Social's own Lisa Hardy to ensure that the person in charge of responding on Twitter is adequately experienced for the role.
Velveeta's Facebook tone of voice wins over fans
Velveeta processed cheese has seen its Facebook page take a slightly odd turn recently, posting what can only be referred to as, errr, 'cheesy' updates.
These have led to some unpleasant responses, but the brand has dealt with them well and managed to convert users to its side. It's a great example of the success a unique tone of voice can bring to a brand.
Outdoor Plus gets Coldplay's help on Twitter
Billboard company Outdoor Plus saw huge success on Twitter last week, when they tweeted the below to Coldplay. When the band retweeted this to their 12 million followers, the company saw a big rise in reach – a clear example of the power of influencers.

We Are Social's Tuesday Tune-Up #138
Relief organisation Misereor introduces 'The Social Swipe'
What's the one thing people always have with them? A credit card.
To encourage donations, Misereor introduced The Social Swipe – an interactive poster that has a slit in the middle where people can insert and swipe down their credit card to make a donation of two Euros.
Swiping a credit card triggers an animation sequence that illustrates what a small donation can do to help the poor and disadvantaged. This clever activation provides people with an easy and engaging way to get involved and illustrates where their donation goes to.
Coca-Cola 'Happiness Arcade Machine' makes recycling fun
Coca-Cola has come up with a green initiative to get kids involved with recycling in Bangladesh called 'The Happiness Arcade'. In an effort to raise awareness and incentivise recycling, the brand installed six arcade machines in Dhaka that run on empty bottles rather than quarters.
In the mean time, we can all continue to look for ways to make recycling fun!
Facebook launches mobile ads Audience Network
Facebook has launched its mobile ad network, allowing developers to make money without having to sell their own ads, do their own targeting, handle measurement, or route payments.
The program will roll out over the "coming months" and will start with advertisers interested in buying app installs and engagement ads. No surprises here – Facebook will take a cut of what advertisers pay and hand the rest to the publishers.
The ads come in three formats: standard IAB banners, standard IAB interstitials, and native ad units.
YouTube adds three-second clips to all video content
Google announced a new feature for YouTube that will let creators upload a 3-second intro clip that will play before all of their channels' videos.
To get started, channel managers need to upload the intro as an unlisted video, select "Add a channel branding intro" on the InVideo Programming Page and then choose on which videos the clip should play.
Unfortunately, Google won't allow these intro videos to serve as ads, sponsorships or product placements.
Foursquare has introduced a new stand-alone app, Swarm
Foursquare is breaking itself to two parts: Foursquare for exploring your location, and a whole new app, called Swarm, for keeping up with friends.
The idea comes out of the two unique experiences that Foursquare users have always valued: the first, was sharing your location and finding out where your friends are; the second category became finding new places in your area, by reading reviews, viewing menus/pictures, then locating them on a map.
Bottom line: Swarm will be a map of all your friends, and Foursquare will be a map of all your places. You can sign up for the Swarm mailing list to be the first to know when it is released.
Twitter is experimenting with a mute feature in its mobile apps
Do you ever feel pressured to follow someone for work or social reasons even though their tweets annoy you? No problem, Twitter is experimenting with a mute feature in its mobile apps.
Some users of the company's iOS and Android clients are now seeing an option to mute accounts that they follow, preventing another user's tweets and retweets from appearing in their timeline. The user remains muted until you manually unmute them.
In essence, you won't be seeing another person's tweets, but they won't know that. Everybody wins!
Vine gets a makeover – videos are now viewable to non-users
In addition to the home feed and profile view that featured on the initial version of Vine, users will now find a search bar and a set of discovery features from the mobile apps: including curated content — playlists and featured videos and features users — channels, trending tags and popular now.
Interestingly, the site is now accessible for visitors that are not logged in to the service, which will open it up to all for the first time. Like Instagram, Vine began as a mobile-only service, and it will be interesting to see how the team continues to develop the Web version with a greater focus on consuming content.

Sharing is caring. Caring is loving. Loving is amazing.
Pedigree strictly followed this old saying in their latest YouTube campaign. In order to raise money for their Adoption Drive program, Pedigree created a 60 second video of cute puppies playing in front of the camera. Based on the premise that if a video goes viral on YouTube, the video platform shares the money earned from advertising with the video creator, Pedigree is hoping to use the funds in order to feed, treat and finding owners for their dogs. So if you want to contribute to this great program, just share the video with your peers and let's make this video as viral as we can. For the love of dogs…
The most watched Australian YouTube ad in 2014 so far…
In a recent article published by AdNews, Head of YouTube Solutions Olly Grundy lists the most watched Australian YouTube ads since the beginning of the year. As Grundy outlines, online video platforms such as YouTube allow advertisers to communicate for longer than the classic 30 seconds TV spot. The video that tops the podium is actually over 4 minutes long by Air New Zealand. It features extremely talented Sports Illustrated models taking us through the beauty of in-flight safety. I personally feel much safer now. Enjoy!
TV conversation targeting arrives in Beta on our Australian shores.
Oliver Young, Twitter Senior Product Manager announced that the new targeting capabilities have arrived in Australia in beta form. Every day people use Twitter to engage with their favourite TV shows or TV events. By combining their TV & Twitter efforts, advertisers can encourage users to take action (for example: visit a website, watch a video, subscribe to a platform…)
Research revealed that earned audiences exposed to TV & brand-related Tweets are taking action. #ARFRETHINK14 pic.twitter.com/hhFDZ75XOx

Most social referrals come from Facebook
Facebook leads its rivals for social referrals, according to the Shareaholic Social Media Traffic Report for Q1 2014. In March, over 20% of all referrals to Shareaholic's 300,000 sites came through Facebook; closest rival, Pinterest, saw just 7.1%. Almost all major social platforms grew their share of overall referrals during the study period, with only LinkedIn and YouTube witnessing a decline.
Facebook in review: Q1 2014
Facebook has announced its figures for the first quarter of this year. The platform now has 1.28 billion monthly active users and 802 million daily active users, up from 1.23 billion and 757 million in the last quarter of 2013.
A large proportion of new users came from mobile. Over 1 billion people now access Facebook via mobile at least once a month, compared with 945 million in the previous quarter. Mobile-only users have grown from 296 million to 341 million in the same period.
Revenue grew 72% year-on-year to $2.5bn. Ad revenue accounted for $2.27bn, a year-on-year increase of 82%, while 59% of all ad revenue came from mobile. That's up from 53% in the previous quarter and just 30% in Q1 2013.
Facebook launches Newswire
Facebook has announced the launch of Newswire, a resource that looks to provide content from the platform for journalists and newsrooms to embed in their own stories. The system is powered by Storyful, a social discovery and verification tool.
Facebook acquires Moves
Another week, another acquisition by Facebook. This time it's 'Moves', an app that tracks fitness and activities – you can see how it looks in the image below. For now, the impact of the acquisition will be minimal, with the founders of Moves assuring users that it will continue to act as a standalone app, independent of its parent company.
Video ads are coming to Instagram
Instagram is soon to introduce video advertising, according to AdWeek. The platform, which is notoriously meticulous when it comes to vetting advertising, will continue to work with only a few select partners.
Instagram personalises the Explore tab
Instagram has updated its 'Explore' tab. It now features not just top content from across the network, but also the photos and videos that have been liked by those you follow.
WhatsApp reaches 500m users
WhatsApp now has 500 million active users, having added another 70 million since its acquisition by Facebook in February. Jan Koum, the company's chief executive, stated that these users are now posting 700m photos and 100m videos every single day. He also implied that its rivals were "shitty". The potty mouth.
New Twitter profiles are open to all
No more staring in envy at those brand pages with their big headers and pinned tweets – the new Twitter profiles are now available for everybody. If you're still deciding how to decorate your new online space, never fear – the new profiles aren't compulsory just yet.
Twitter introduces 'website preview' ad card
Twitter is adding another type of ad to its list of cards. Soon enough, you'll start seeing tweets like the below, which preview company websites. This is the latest in a host of such moves, and The Wall Street Journal believes that there may be a dozen more to come this year alone.
LinkedIn improves ad offering
LinkedIn has bulked up its ad offering with two new releases: a Sponsored Updates API and Content Partners. The API will allow selected ad tech partners to sell sponsored updates across the platform, with five partners initially signed up. With Content Partners, LinkedIn will let companies sponsor content from popular publishers such as The Atlantic, CBS Interactive and Bloomberg. According to LinkedIn, posts from the aforementioned organisations receive 30% more engagement than the average marketer update.
Vic Gundotra leaves Google
Vic Gundotra, the founding father of Google+, has left Google. This has led to big questions about the future of the social network. TechCrunch reports rumours that the 1,000-strong team in charge of the social network is being reshuffled – it also questions if this may be the end for Google+ as a rival to the likes of Facebook and Twitter. A spokesperson from Google has denied the claims:
Today's news has no impact on our Google+ strategy — we have an incredibly talented team that will continue to build great user experiences across Google+, Hangouts and Photos.
Tumblr better for social TV than Twitter?
Tumblr has argued that it hosts more conversation about television than its rival, Twitter. In a study published last week, the platform accepts that more live mentions happen on Twitter, but only marginally so – and the figure is easily made up for in the following days on Tumblr.
Pinterest previews Guided Search
Pinterest has created a new tool, named 'Guided Search', for its Android and iPhone/iPad apps. With each query unique to the user, it aims to aid exploration of its vast swathes of content. CEO Ben Silbermann explained the tool's goals very succinctly:
Let's build a search engine that's more about exploration and discovery and teaching you about your tastes.
Cinema tickets through Twitter
Fandango, the ticketing service, is allowing people to buy cinema tickets through Twitter. Tweets about certain films that link to the Fandango site will now appear with the poster, information and a purchase button.
Peugeot races against Twitter followers
Peugeot is offering Twitter followers a chance to win a driving experience for two in Germany, in order to promote its new model, the RCZ R. Entrants have to complete a 140-character tweet more quickly than the car can accelerate from 0-90mph on a track.
We Are Social asks Volvic fans if they've #GotTheBottle
Water brand Volvic has announced a partnership with Tough Mudder, aiming to drive awareness around 'Volcanicity'. As part of the move, We Are Social has created a bespoke #GotTheBottle app, which will source fans' best moments from Tough Mudder – and photo submissions will be entered for the chance to win a trip to Las Vegas.
Ronald McDonald gets new look
Nightmare inhabitant Ronald McDonald now has a new look, especially for social media. Mentions of #ronaldmcdonald and #lovinit have increased since launch, but so have tweets containing #notlovinit. We'll let you decide for yourself.
#myNYPD Twitter fail
The New York Police Department created a classic Twitter fail last week by asking people to tweet their pictures of the force using the hashtag #myNYPD. It quickly saw many people posting images and tales of police brutality.
My fondest #MyNYPD memories: watching officers beat up peaceful protesters and arrest my journo friends for doing their jobs.
— allisonkilkenny (@allisonkilkenny) April 22, 2014
Need a lift? The #NYPD's got you! Free Delivery, Only at #myNYPD pic.twitter.com/AStS3ZjoZu
— Occupy Wall Street (@OccupyWallStNYC) April 22, 2014
Brandwatch analysis showed that sentiment was not exclusively negative. With 5% positive, 15% negative and the rest neutral, the figures could be worse for the police department (though they could also be a whole lot better).

On a business trip and wanted to stop in a cool Gastropub. Great location - right outside of the Convention Center and not far from Camden Yards. Had a real nice selection of craft beers, both local and out of town. To eat, had the crabcake/chicken sandwich. Cool creation and really enjoyed it. Staff was really nice but something did not click. There was a good amount of staff but always felt I needed to wait on everything. Wait for beer order, wait for beer, wait for meal, and wait for check (10-15 minutes after I asked for it). Really were not overly busy to justify. I would go back.

New York
3.24/5 rDev -18%
The bar tender was not the level of kindness I anticipate when leaving New York, but I try not to generalize. I don't want to deduct too much for that. I didn't order any food but I did have a couple beers. I had low expectations considering the sporty nature of the decor and the assumption that this place was mostly frequented by tourists after an Orioles game. However, I was pleasantly surprised with the first brew, "Sea of Spears," which was apparently a Red Wheat Ale. It smelt very hoppy and was more reminiscent of an IPA than any wheat beer I had, but it was actually a very good beer. This gave me high expectations for my next choice, an actual IPA, Draft Punk. This was not a good beer t didn't even have a scent. I didn't finish it. This was the kind of brew I've come to expect from run-of-the-mill brew pubs. Didn't feel a need to continue on after that and play the guessing game on what may be good or bad. This was a great choice because we then went to Max's Taphouse, which is my new favorite bar, hands down. If you're main goal is to find quality beer, skip here and go straight to Max's. They have an unbelievable selection.

this wiki
Without DR DAHIRU a lot of people would have been dead through heart break. My case is not different from heart break, I am married woman with 3 kids and there was a time when i was having problem with my husband because he was having an affair outside our marriage and this was making me feel bad. So i tried finding solution to my problem by reading a lot of relationship tips on the internet and that was how i came in contact with DR DAHIRU contact details and through the help of DR DAHIRU my husband left the girl he was having affair with and he came back to me and our kids. After a job well done by DR DAHIRU i felt that it will be unfair if i keep this secret to myself and that is why i am going to drop the contact details of DR DAHIRU right now, They are: email@example.com or add him on facebook (Arewa Dahiru) To enable you have a taste of his nice work
To take - and then losing - the special woman in your life can really make you stop and think about how vulnerable we all are. After all - Love is real high, but the lost love can be the pits. When you put your heart out there, someone else has the power to damage it. And that reminds us how much we all depend on others our happiness.
Click Here for the Complete Guide.
But the emotional pain of lost love is only the first step in the healing process. The next decision is this: do you deal with the pain and try to get over her. Or do you assemble a plan to get him back?
If you want to go to assemble a plan, you might ask yourself and others, "What are the best ways to get your ex-girlfriend back?" But, let's face it, most people do not have a relationship with the experts. As much as your mother, sister, best friend, father, colleague, or a guy who works the local bakery seems wise ways of the world - chances are they have not been studied scientifically, what it takes to get your ex-girlfriend back. On the other hand, is love and relationship experts out there who have done just that. And you can take advantage of their knowledge very cheaply and easily. And imagine the benefits: for example, Sunset kiss with ex-girlfriend.
When you are probably feeling lonely and the pain right now, that is no reason to give up hope.

I've been holding this one in my back pocket for a while until former Brewers pop-up machine Yuniesky Betancourt tricked another team into signing him or, worse yet, was taken back by the Brewers. Fortunately, the Phillies fell victim to the veteran middle infielder's cherubic Cuban charm, inking him to a minor league to serve as an insurance policy for the empty shells which once encased Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley. Anyway, we're getting dangerously close to becoming "The Best Phillies Blog In The World" too, so I'll just get to the original point of this post. A few weeks ago, my pal and former Right Field Bleachers cohort, Jared, alerted me to a little musical number called "The Best Song Ever Written About Yuniesky Betancourt" he found on MySpace. Anxious to see if the lofty claim was true, I didn't even remember to make fun of Jared for using MySpace. Written and performed by a band called "Green Bay" (but with the Green Day f...

The ads for the "Feeding America" charity are breaking the webpage. Whenever that ad loads i just see the buttons saying preview and post comment. I am using IE7 (but only cuz I'm at work).
L.J. Smith!
For a minute there I thought you guys forgot to comment on the Steelers/Chargers tilt; Then I noticed you just got the logos wrong.
I mean, I guess a Ram is sort of like a Charger, and the Eagles are in the same state as Pittsburgh, but really, it's a bit insulting to the Steelers and Chargers...
This week: Josh Shaw lies, Steve Smith intimidates, Le'Veon Bell relaxes, Matt Simms dances, and Clint Trickett kisses and tells.

Take Five: our Key Stage 3, 4 & 5 English teacher's toolkit
Take Five is written by English, Drama and Media Studies teachers and rooted in the real classroom. Organised by teaching topics and drawing upon a selection of much-loved Teachit resources, Take Five is every English department's tool (or survival!) kit. But by popular demand, we're now bringing the pack into the price range of individual teachers too. At a budget-busting £19.95, it's something of a bargain, we hope.
With chapters on core areas of the English curriculum, including active approaches to Shakespeare, going multimodal and differentiation (both for AG&T & SEN students), there's plenty in Take Five to inspire, refresh and encourage good practice.
Take Five even stretches beyond the 'core'. If you're in need of a nifty idea for classroom-based Drama, a practical insight into media production or a pithy plenary, there are units on these areas (and many others!) too.
And don't forget that along with your hard copy of the pack comes free access to a digital version, so you'll be able to download all of the resources and online content (including whizzies) wherever you are!
Online access for all
Everybody who buys Take Five will have access to an online digital version – so you'll be able to access your pack whenever you need to, wherever you are.

Complete Release | Schedule | Season Stats
Colorado State (1-1-0, 0-0 MW) returns to Texas, where it played just last week, for a contest against Southern Methodist University (1-1-0, 0-0 AAC). The Rams are scheduled to kick off on Friday in Dallas, Texas, at SMU's home field, Westcott Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 a.m. MT.
Ready to continue its first season in program history, the Colorado State women's soccer team is not backing away from some of the premier programs in the sport. The Rams have brought in five transfer students, including two Fort Collins locals, Megan Speed and Jami Vaughn, with NCAA Division-I experience.
Scouting Report on Southern Methodist
- SMU comes into the match at 1-1-0 and is just coming off of a 3-2 loss at Arkansas.
- The Mustangs boast a powerful offense that has averaged four goals a game through their first two contests of the year.
- SMU is 1-0 at home this year, defeating Louisianna-Monroe 6-1, and is unbeaten in its last eight matches at home dating back to last year.
- The Mustangs return eight starters from last year's team that finished 9-8-4.
Star matchup
A heavy focus in Friday night's contest will be how Colorado State's defense fares against SMU's junior forward Shelby Redman. Redman led the Mustangs with nine goals and also tallied seven assists last year as a sohomore. During her junior campaign, Redman is off to a blistering start having scored three goals in the first two games.
In charge of slowing down SMU's star attacking player, will be a pair of valuable center backs for the Rams, Megan Speed and Jami Vaughn. Speed and Vaughn are co-captains for the Rams and are the only two players who have played all 180 minutes through the first two games.
A win will...
- Give Colorado State its first-ever program victory over a division-I opponent.
- Improve Head Coach Bill Hempen's career record to 278-189-44. He currently ranks No. 19 among Division I active coaches in all-time wins.
- Give CSU a winning record for the season.
Last time out
The Colorado State women's soccer program played its first competition against a nationally ranked team, and got its first taste of the quality of soccer the team is striving for.
The Rams contained Texas Tech in the early going, but after constant pressure, the Red Raiders were finally able to break through the Rams' stingy defense and score in the 20th minute.
Five minutes later, the Red Raiders were able to tack on another goal and took a 2-0 lead into halftime.
The Rams were not able to regroup coming out of the half, with Texas Tech showing off its selfless style and scoring another four goals in the second half, en route to a 6-0 victory over Colorado State.
Historic goal
What may have looked like a simple goal to an outsider, was anything but for the Rams when freshman midfielder Carly Seib found the back of the net in the sixth minute against Lubbock Christian. The goal, marked the first goal in program history for Colorado State.
To celebrate the momentous occasion, Colorado State kept the game ball that was scored and brought it back with them to Fort Collins.
Fort Collins Soccer Complex - Home of the Rams
Located northeast of the Colorado State campus, FCSC serves as the Home of Rams Soccer. CSU's pitch is at the far northeast corner of the complex.
Directions: Take I-25 north to Exit 271, Mountain Vista. Turn west (left) on Mountain Vista and then north (right) on the frontage road. Continue 1.5 miles on the frontage road, crossing Richards Lake Rd. Address: 3955 NW Frontage Rd.
Video and Audio Streaming
The Rams will have two home contests streamed on CSURams.com/digitalnetwork this season. Fans can watch home games on their computer for free. Specific dates will be announced later in early September.
Select road games will also have live streaming:

Fremont Police have arrested the suspect wanted after a deadly bar shooting over the weekend.
Around 9:30 a.m. Monday, police officers went to a residence in the 600 block of South Park Avenue, following up on leads. When they knocked on the door, a relative to the suspect answered. Igmidio Mista, 33, then came to the door and was taken into custody without incident. Police were preparing to issue a $10,000 reward for his arrest.
Mista was transported to the Fremont Police Department, served charges and was later taken to court. He is being charged with three counts of first degree murder. He faces 15 years to life in prison for each of the three murder charges. A preliminary hearing could be scheduled in 10 days if they choose to have one. There will be a grand jury hearing before then to decide if the death penalty is a possibility.
Mista is not a U.S. citizen; he is from the Philippines. He could face deportation if convicted. He is being held without bond because he is a flight risk.
Police say the shooting occurred around 1:30 a.m. Sunday at the Last Call Bar on West State Street. According to witnesses, the shooting started after an argument inside the bar. Mista is accused of fatally shooting three people and injuring another.
Police have identified the victims as Ramiro Sanchez, 28, who was the bartender, Jose "Andy" Chavez, 26, an off-duty Elmore police officer hanging out at the bar, and Daniel Ramirez, 25, also a patron of the bar.
The fourth victim, Ramiro Arreola, 25, was taken by air ambulance to a Toledo hospital and has since been treated and released.
The village of Elmore has a small police department. The police chief says the department is not just losing an employee, but a family member.
"We're more like family. We're a small department, so you get to know your employee very, very well, and they become a good friend. And like I said, losing an officer like that is almost like losing a relative. It's been rather tough on us," said Police Chief George Hayes.
Officer Chavez was also a volunteer soccer coach at Woodmore High School. His daughter is a student at Woodmore Elementary School. Grief counselors are available for students as they go through this troubling time.
A vigil took place by the bar around noon Monday. Another is planned for Monday night at 8 p.m.

Charles Arlinghaus: A $400 million hole was just blown in the state budget
Hospitals were content to go along with this because the agency that regulated them, the state HHS department, told them they would be doing the state a favor and the tax would never be real. Then-commissioner Harry Bird assured hospitals that if the federal government ever disallowed the arrangement, the "tax" would go away.

The barriers Hispanic farmers face in starting and expanding farming operations in the United States includes the lingering effects of past government discrimination, current marketing and use of information, and their own agricultural traditions. Both the government and the farmers see the need for improvement, but reaching the end goal is a challenge. NET News and Harvest Public Media reporter Clay Masters reports and produces "Hispanic Farmers on Broken Ground." The television documentary features Nebraska Hispanic farm owners, the author of a report on the current state of Hispanic farm ownership in the state, Hispanic students involved in a youth farming organization, as well as U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack. The documentary aims to examine the obstacles currently facing Hispanic farmers in the Midwest and across the country, as well as look ahead to possible solutions for the future.

You might have the insights and knowledge to conquer the world. But if you're nursing your fifth cup of coffee and staring blankly at the wall while trying to piece your thoughts together on paper, you could probably use some help.
If you're fortunate enough to have an in-house editorial team polish your content and save you from embarrassing (and potentially credibility-weakening) errors, your content comes even closer to achieving its purpose of positioning you as a reputable thought leader.
You've realized that building trust, engaging with your target audience, and attracting more qualified leads is important to your company. You've done a content audit and decided that it makes sense to outsource your content marketing needs to a specialized firm. Great decision! Now comes the difficult part: choosing the firm that's right for you.
I hear it all the time: "We've already worked with a PR firm, and we'll never do that again."
Every year, buyers are becoming more self-reliant. They're looking online for answers to the questions they have, research on the things they need, and solutions to the problems they face — and they're doing it without any outside help. If businesses aren't providing content around these topics, they're not going to engage prospects, convert leads, or drive revenue — period.
You can deny it if you want, but we've all done it: We've pulled big words from a thesaurus, intending to casually throw them into conversation. We've agreed with something someone else said, making a mental note to look it up later. We've stuffed our conversations with buzzwords in an attempt to exaggerate our experience.
Dragging your feet when implementing a new business strategy is understandable. You're wagering time and resources without knowing the exact outcome.
A few weeks ago, a client of ours asked his account strategist how he could motivate employees to write for the company blog. That blew my mind.

Tom Friedman Goes on PBS to Once Again Explore His Extreme Envy of Red China
New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman is asked to appear in all the liberal salons, including the rarefied air of the Charlie Rose show on PBS in the late hours, where few Republicans appear. On Wednesday (after his appearance on CNN), he and his co-author Michael Mandelbaum (a foreign policy adviser to Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign) came to promote their new book That Used to Be Us: How America Fell Behind in the World It Invented and How We Can Come Back.
Rose and Friedman once again discussed how inferior American politics is to communist China, which naturally knows how to get things done...with such authoritarian panache. Friedman talked up how we feel weak, like when we couldn't have a Minnesota Vikings game when the Metrodome roof collapsed. We'd say "if this were China, they would have walked to the game in the snow, and doing calculus along the way."
CHARLIE ROSE: Another point about this around the corner is you went to China in 2010 to one of these World Economic Forum conferences in China. And you`re in this magnificent place and you think, God, they`ve got all this stuff and then you had what thought?
THOMAS FRIEDMAN: Well, then I come home and Michael and I live in Bethesda, Maryland and we take the subway to work both of us often and go to the subway and the escalators there had been broken or in repair for six months each one with 21 stairs. And I was struck that it was stuck too but China had built this convention center in 8.5 months --
ROSE: 8.5 months.
FRIEDMAN: And they were taking six months to prepare 21 stairs in the escalator. And again as Michael said, this is not one of these oh, if we`re only China, no. China figures into this book on like two pages I think. What we`re trying to say is the feeling that`s kind of inchoate out in the country is I came from a trip, I`d been in a convention and I`d been with some high school students. And I said to Michael I had a really interesting conversation with junior high school students.
And I just said to him like and we quote, one from the book, "When I say China to you what does it evoke?" And this one young woman just said, "It feels like they have more will than we do." And so what we really argue in the book is China has become a mirror, the obsession with China. We had Governor Ed Rendell, you know, criticizing the NFL for canceling the Philadelphia Eagles-Viking football game in December and saying we're a bunch of wusses. If this were China they would have walked to the game in the snow. and doing calculus along the way. You know.
But that notion -- what we`re saying is China`s really become a mirror for us of things that what we feel we once had, particularly Charlie, one thing, the ability to act collectively. Because all the problems that Michael talked about and the things we need to do -- what they all have in common is they all require collective will. They all required collective action. We can`t do this with one arm tied behind our back.
ROSE: Why isn`t the President successful in creating the narrative, the pep talk and having it resonate in a way that people will realize that they have to back to what they were in order to become what they want to be again.
FRIEDMAN: Well, you know, you said it earlier, Charlie, Obama seems to be in favor of all these things and he was for grand bargaining but we never quite got the details. You know what I mean?
ROSE: That`s a failure of leadership.
FRIEDMAN: Yes, exactly. And that`s been my frustration because I think in his heart he knows what needs to be done. In his head he knows what needs to be done but there`s way too much poll reading going on there as far as I`m concerned.
ROSE: Look, you`re one of columnists that he calls in, he reads, and seeks out your opinion. What happens in these conversations?
FRIEDMAN: In my column and in the few opportunities I`ve had to talk and to convey these things personally I think what you -- what I take away from things the President said in public, you know, is that he feels we don`t appreciate the opposition he`s had...That he`s had a foe that has been basically out to obstruct everything he`s done.
Poor Obama. The liberals don't seem to appreciate the ferocity of Republican obstructionism. Later, Rose returned Friedman to his despot-for-a-day wishes, to impose Chinese "focus" on American policy:
ROSE: I`m trying to remember, is that you and I have done this so often. What was it you said once, that I`d like to be President of China for an hour.
FRIEDMAN: For a day, for a day.
ROSE: For a day.
FRIEDMAN: And now I said, I actually I would be happy even for a minute. You know it`s just --
ROSE: Because you can order things and be done.
FRIEDMAN: Because you can get -- get things done but then what I quickly said is that I actually don`t want to be President of China for a day. I don`t -- I don`t want us to be China for a day.
ROSE: Yes.
FRIEDMAN: I want us to be America. I want our system to work with the same focus, authority and stick to it that was just democratically that China does by ordering it autocratically from the top down. And that`s our frustration. It`s -- as we say in the book, we think with have the superior political system to China. Unfortunately right now Charlie, China is getting 90 percent out of their inferior system and we`re getting about 50 percent out of our superior system.
Because look at -- everything coming out of Washington is all sub-optimal. For how long do we remain a great power when all that our political system can produce are sub-optimal solutions? That -- that`s got to add up and it is adding up.

If only Friedman's wishes had actually come true....
Submitted by big.league.slider on Fri, 09/09/2011 - 10:37pm.
Friedman should be more careful in what he wishes for. If the US were truly like the PRC, any of his numerous public criticisms of the president during the GW Bush administration would have immediately gotten him jailed.
As for his recent work of literary fiction, America did not create the world we exist in. America's founders simply put in place a system of government that allowed our little corner of the world to flourish as no other society had before it, or since.
What the clueless Friedman fails to comprehend, is that any real growth in the Chinese economy is entirely due to their adoption of America's economic principles. The more American the Chinese economy becomes, the more successful it will be. And the more Chinese the American economy becomes, the less prosperous we will be.

Ironically, as the left points to China's ascendency (which is due to their adoption of the US economic principles) as a model for the US to follow, they do everything possible to push the US off the track of following the very same economic principles.
The entire environmental / "green" movement would not fly in China. Too bad, too. It would knock China off its high horse within a decade.

Both good comments
Submitted by ant on Sat, 09/10/2011 - 11:34pm.
I was thinking on similar lines of the hypocrisy that is all too evident in leftardedland. He bemoans the 'lack of collective will', but the left has done nothing but work to divide the nation, to criticize and call it 'evil', to bring it down, to fight the people at every turn, to hinder progress, to apply the multi-cult PC death grip to almost everything (remember, when a memorial to 9/11 was scrapped because libtards like Freidman insisted the Firemen portrayed were of various ethnicities, rather than the white faces in the actual photo it was to be taken from? That, Tom, is no way to 'get things done') so he has no room to gripe about a spirit of unity.
He also has no room to speak of the 'treading through snow to a football game' loss of American toughness. Doesn't he realize the policies of the side he's on? Here's just a sample Tom;
Guns are SCARY, even the nerf toy ones.
The undocumented are just doing those jobs Americans won't do.
Getting info from terrorist leaders is TORTURE!! Oh my! Water on their poor little heads.
Salt, sugar, blah, blah, blah, must be stopped.

I've been in a number of countries in the region. Those toilets are as much a part of their culture as chop sticks. It's not just China. In places where Westerners are expected to go, like big hotels, they have raised beds, flush toilets, and forks.
But don't let that take away from your truth about the conditions under which common Chinese live and accept.

Wandering Luoyang
Even though the weather wasn't the best for wandering the caves were worth the wet feet and the sore throat! The temperature hovered just over freezing as it either rained or snowed all day. I wasn't really prepared for these temperatures as I was just coming out of the South of China where it was quite comfortable wearing my lightweight jacket. I should have bought a pair of rubber boots to walk in!! haha

Britain's Got Talent returns with new Golden Buzzer
Britain's Got Talent returns for its eighth series this Saturday with Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams on the hunt for an act to capture the nation's imagination.
This year sees the introduction of a brand new feature - the Golden Buzzer.
Each judge, along with presenters Ant and Dec, can press the Golden Buzzer once during the auditions to send an act straight into the live semi-finals.
The new feature is bound to stir up arguments among the judging panel, with each having their own particular idea of what makes for great entertainment.
in fact, there already seems to be some friction building between judges Simon and David...
– Simon Cowell on David Walliams
Do you know what he's really got annoying this year! He was kind of
amusing before but God forbid I make the audience laugh more than
he does - he gets quite dark.
It's like having a child who's suddenly turned into a giant at the age of 11; he is honestly mentally an 11-year-old in this huge body. He has got a
kind side but he can be very, very annoying to work with.
As well as the usual visits to London, Cardiff, Manchester and Birmingham, 2014 is the first year the auditions will be taking place in Belfast.
The acts range from comedians and singers to contortionists and spoon players, with the winner carrying off a cash prize of £250,000 and the chance to appear at the Royal Variety Performance.
In a Q&A ahead of the show, Ant also revealed what he would do to impress the judges if he were a contestant.

I'm very good at making fish finger sandwiches so you never know…
that might get me through. No one's ever tried that before and they're
always looking for something new.
