A rail company in Tokyo is powering its ticket machines in a very cool way - by harnessing the energy of those walking by:
For the next two months, the railway company will be using using the vibrations of human footsteps at Tokyo Station to generate up to 100 milliwatts per second per person that walks through. The idea is to be able to generate enough electricity to power the wickets themselves and their display panels regularly.

NewScientist is reporting that a team of scientists at the University of Texas at Austin has discovered that Prozac, when used in low doses on juvenile hamsters, makes the creatures considerably more aggressive. In fact, the lightly-medicated hamsters initiate 40% more fights than those on placebos. Strangely enough, this only happens in cases of low doses; in higher dosages the juvenile hamsters appear calm and content. The study is particularly interesting, because it highlights the differences in... READ ON
Have you guys seen this Rubik's cube-solving robot? RuBot II is pretty amazing. You hand the robot a cube, it holds it up to its eyes/camera, scans the cube, and then solves it while chatting away.

NewScientist, my favorite source for science, is reporting on their inventions blog that MIT scientists have come up with a gel that can be swabbed onto massive wounds to stop the bleeding. Insane!

In one of the more irony-laden bits I've read in a while, new research is reporting that the active ingredient in marijuana may actually fend off Alzheimer's?!

The Perfect Statue of Dr. King, a North Carolina Town's Dream (and Frustration)
What the residents of Rocky Mount, N.C., cannot seem to agree on is the shape of Dr. King's ears or the size of his feet.
The town, 50 miles east of Raleigh, has already taken down one $56,000 statute of Dr. King and may soon vote to jettison one by a different, but equally respected, artist. The City Council voted unanimously yesterday to give that artist, Steven Whyte of Monterey, Calif., one last chance to meet their expectations before they cancel his contract, said Peter Varney, assistant city manager.
"The Council's feeling is that it's still not quite there," Mr. Varney said.
Some see the problem as more than simply aesthetic: they argue that only a black sculptor could capture Dr. King's spirit, and both of the artists hired so far have been white.
The controversy began two years ago, when the town, about 55 percent black and 45 percent white, decided to commemorate Dr. King's November 1962 visit, a trip that culminated in a stirring speech at the local high school. Some scholars believe that speech may have been the first time Dr. King used the phase, "I have a dream."
Prompted by the 40th anniversary of the 1963 march on Washington, business leaders spent over a year raising money to build a park and a statue to honor that chapter of the town's history. The City Council commissioned a larger-than-life sculpture by a renowned Chicago artist, Erik Blome.
Public reaction to the finished work was swift and harsh. Many said that a white sculptor had portrayed Dr. King as arrogant and that the figure looked nothing like the way they remembered him.

Goffstown selectman says more police needed
Police logged 20 thefts from vehicles in one overnight period last week, bringing the total number of thefts from vehicles to about 75 since the beginning of the year, according to police.
The most recent thefts were concentrated in the area of Holly, Roy, Laurel and Edmond streets in Pinardville during the overnight hours of Aug. 13, according to a statement issued by the Goffstown Police Department.
"We could comfortably use one to two more officers, just to be safer," he said.
"All of the vehicles had been entered through unlocked doors," he said, noting that no signs of broken glass or other forced entry were noted.
"They're not breaking car windows, they're pulling on door handles and gaining access. If it's locked, they move on to the next one," he said. "What we're trying to do is reduce the opportunity."
Residents are also asked that if they locate any items that may have been taken from their vehicles to not to touch those items but report the finding of property to the police so a proper investigation may be completed.

Today's sophisticated advertisers know the importance of investing in Bing Ads – they're a great way to reach over 150 million unique searchers. But even the best advertisers have room to improve. That's why we're excited to reveal 5 key tactics to unlock missed opportunities on Bing! Let's get started…
You already have successful campaigns on other publishers, so why not take advantage of these on Bing as well? Consider replicating campaigns that are hitting or exceeding profitability targets, campaigns that are reaching your budget limit, or campaigns that are on the cusp of profitability and could benefit from a reasonable decrease in CPC. If you're a Marin customer, use the copy tool to quickly and easily clone your campaigns from one publisher to another.
Often the keywords you have on Bing do not match up with the keywords you have on other publishers, so it's worth taking a look at this discrepancy. Moving profitable keywords is a great way to get additional volume in a way that improves overall performance. To do this, identify your top-performing keywords on other publishers and check to see if they're also on Bing. In Marin, you can again use the copy tool to launch those keywords on Bing.
Take a look at the Bing campaigns that are hitting your KPIs, and see which of those are also hitting your budget caps. Consider changing your daily budget on those campaigns to expand volume. In Marin, filters make it easy to identify good campaigns for this tactic, and from there you can opt to boost budgets by a dollar amount of percentage increase.
If you're not already using them, sitelinks are a great way to maximize performance on Bing. They take up more real estate in the search engine results so you can push competitors farther down the page, plus they provide a more relevant experience for searchers through deep linking. Finally, sitelinks are known to boost CTR by 10-20%.

Retailers should try Bing Product Ads as a way to increase visibility, and reach up to 31 million unique consumers who don't use other search engines. Featuring images of the products you offer, this rich ad type takes consumers directly to a page where they can make a purchase. Additionally, they make it possible to take up more real estate on the search engine results page – even allowing for multiple listings in the form of text ads and Product Ads. Marin's workflow allows you to manage both ad types in our platform for valuable time-savings.

Google rocked the search world this August with the announcement that they were changing the definition of Exact Match and Phrase Match to include close variants of their keywords, such as misspellings or plural variants. This caused a huge uproar from search marketers over the potential effect this could have on their search performance. Almost two months later, were their fears founded? I took a look at our Marin Global Online Advertising Index to see how performance has, or has not, changed over the last month and a half for Google Exact and Phrase Match search.
To start, I looked at click-through rates between August and October for both 2013 and 2014 for Google Exact and Phrase Search. While these searches make up only about 3% of all Google searches, this still means billions of impressions daily. Surprisingly, I found no real change in CTR trends between 2013 and 2014. While there is a small drop the week of the change, this is also mirrored in CTR behavior in 2013 on the same dates.
On the cost-per-click side, we also see very similar trends to 2013. While there is a jump in CPC during mid-September, we see a similar jump in 2013. This coincides with both the beginning of the holiday season sales and back-to-school sales so this is not unexpected. While the jumps were less pronounced this year than last, overall, trends show that this change to Google Exact and Phrase Match search have not affected CTR and CPC significantly, at least not yet.
Historically, Bing has always been the primary contender when it comes to search engine share in the US. However, this Q3 we saw a significant benchmark for Bing where it had overtaken Google in impression share. In the B2B services vertical, Bing edged past Google, capturing 52% to Google's 48% in the US.
Bing's impression share for the B2B services vertical has always hovered closer to parity than other verticals, with 44% of all impressions last quarter, but this is the first quarter we've seen it overtake Google.
While it could be a fluke, it also signals a change in consumer behavior. The target audience of B2B advertisers has begun searching slightly more on Bing than Google, at least in Q3. This could be due to a few different factors:
What we don't see is a corresponding percentage of spend and clicks on Bing. Advertisers have yet to adjust for this slow shift away from Google towards Bing and there is an opportunity for a B2B marketer to capture cheap clicks by shifting some share of ad budget away from Google towards Bing.
Do you have any additional thoughts? Feel free to leave a comment below to continue the conversation.
Google recently released some early holiday goodies for retailers across a number of verticals. While dynamic remarketing (a.k.a. dynamic retargeting) on the Google Display Network (GDN) has been available since June, it had been mainly limited to retailers with a Google Merchant Center Account, notwithstanding some beta tests within the travel and education verticals. However, last week, Google rolled out further vertical support, enabling dynamic retargeting across the hotel, flight, real estate, classified, job, auto, finance, and education verticals.
Retargeting is proven to be a very effective conversion driver. However dynamic retargeting (or as Google refers to it, dynamic "remarketing") is tailor made for retailers. Dynamic retargeting dynamically serves product-specific ads to potential customers based on the products they've previously viewed. This gives retailers a powerful tool to tailor creative to customers in ways that are more likely to grab their interest and drive conversions and purchases.
While many retailers have already been including dynamic retargeting as part of their marketing mix, Google's support for some non-traditional verticals including jobs and educations, gives companies in those verticals an opportunity to dip their toes into the retargeting waters.
Although Google's dynamic retargeting product may be a good first step for retailers wading into retargeting, sophisticated marketers are likely to find some Google's new offering lacking in a number of ways.
Google's remarketing product is limited to only displaying ads on sites that the Google Display Network reaches. The display world is much more fragmented than the search world, and GDN is just one of the many ad exchanges that serve display ads across the Web. GDN only accounts for a plurality of the display inventory available on the web which means advertisers advertising on GDN alone would be missing out on a majority of display impressions across the Web. The missed opportunity is significant. Essentially, retargeting on GDN alone is akin to only running search ads on Bing.
Equally important to note is AdWords lack of reach on Facebook. Study after study has shown the incremental value of marketing across multiple channels. In fact, Marin recently released a white paper on retargeting, which found that advertisers using the Perfect Audience retargeting platform to retarget on both Display and Facebook enjoyed better returns than advertisers who were only retargeting within a single channel. Dynamic retargeting through AdWords means missing out on retargeting on Facebook, the most popular social network in the world. With over 1 billion regular users, dynamic ads via the Facebook Newsfeed and Sidebar should be a cornerstone of any retargeting strategy.
Finally, going beyond the Google walled garden is essential for savvy marketers looking to leverage tactics such as look-alike modeling to try to build new business. Currently, Google lacks a smart prospecting product rivaling Facebook's Lookalike Audiences. Additionally, tactics such as partner retargeting with second-party data, or audience targeting using third-party data can further help marketers increase their potential customer base.
Google's dynamic remarketing product is a good starter offering for retailers who want to test how dynamic retargeting can help their business. However, its basic capabilities combined with its lack of access to channels like Facebook and non-GDN display ad exchanges limits its usefulness as businesses grow and become more sophisticated with their marketing efforts. Even for marketers new to retargeting, using a cross-channel retargeting platform like Perfect Audience can help you get started with dynamic retargeting, but still reap the benefits that come with retargeting across channels.
While Google has long been (and still remains) the dominant search engine in the US market, there are signs that Bing is becoming more of a contender – at least in a few key verticals. Due to our curious nature, we decided to examine Google vs Bing US data over the last five quarters to see how much headway Bing has made in capturing click and spend share.
From our data gathering, we were able to see three verticals that have seen significant gains in click share since Q2 2013: B2B services, healthcare, and travel. While other verticals have seen minor fluctuations, we saw click share grow by at least 10% for these three verticals, compared to an average of 4%. In addition, we saw at least 12% spend share growth for these three industries, versus an overall spend share growth of 4% year over year.
It could be for a variety of reasons. One, Bing's users have always skewed older than Google's, favoring 35 and up, and especially 55-64 year olds. From this, we can infer that these users would show more interest in these three verticals than Google's. As the economy picks up, it also makes sense that Bing's user-base would be searching and clicking more often on ads within these verticals than on Google. People searching for B2B services would exclude a large audience of students and junior employees, who are more likely Google users. With the Affordable Care Act in play, we can surmise that the large jump in healthcare clicks is, again, an older user-base searching for information and signing up in the middle of this period, causing a sharp increase in Bing healthcare click-share. Similarly, travel may be more affordable to those with disposable income further in their careers, or heads of households, who are more likely to use Bing. In addition, these three verticals cover topics that require extensive research before a purchase decision is made, which may show that online searchers are going across multiple search platforms to do thorough research before any decisions.

In the US, more than 166 million people – 53% of the population – own a smartphone. We carry them with us wherever we go. So, it's no surprise smartphones are a key target of advertisers and e-commerce providers. The vision of smartphones replacing wallets is just too good to pass up. Case in point, Apple just announced Apple Pay payment solution in conjunction with the iPhone 6 launch.
But just how likely are consumers to use their phones to make purchases outside of a new app or scheduling an Uber pickup? To gauge consumer interest in using smartphones to complete transactions, we thought we'd take a look at the performance of Google Product Listing Ads (PLAs) on smartphones and desktops.
PLAs are unique in that they are predominantly used by retailers to showcase a product; so, we aren't seeing consumers react to ads for services or information. Also, unless you're in the market for a new Razor Scooter, odds are you aren't going to search and click on an ad for one. Consequently, PLAs are a good barometer for getting a pulse on consumer online shopping behavior.
First off, the click-through rate (CTR) of PLAs on smartphones is higher. The gap varies, but more recently in June, 2014 the CTR of smartphones was 33% higher than desktops. This would indicate consumers seem to favor their smartphones for browsing and researching products. Makes sense. For the last few years, the story has been that smartphones are used to research but when it comes time to pulling the trigger, the transaction either takes place on a desktop or in a store. A smartphone is rarely used to complete the transaction.
To answer that question, we looked at the conversion rate of PLAs for smartphones versus desktops. Since these are ads for specific products, the likelihood of a conversion rate for a PLA being a transaction is very high. Desktops still rein king when it comes to completing transactions with a conversion rate 135% higher than smartphones in June; however, what's interesting is the growth in conversion rate on smartphones.
Year over year, the conversion rate for PLAs on smartphones has increased 120%. But what does this mean? It means consumers are completing more transactions on their smartphones. This is likely due to not only familiarity and comfort with doing so but also retailers and technology providers like Google making the transaction process easier and much more mobile friendly.
Get ready to ditch your wallets.
As summer winds down and the upcoming school year looms, it looks like parents get back to Facebooking. Looking at the seasonality of clicks across Facebook, Google, and Bing it appears Facebook experiences a huge surge in clicks as summer comes to a close, more than likely brought on by back-to-school-itis.
In July, as we become fixated with fun in the sun, Facebook experiences its second lowest volume of ad clicks at a level 25% below the baseline (January). Makes sense. There are road trips and barbecues to get to. But as summer starts to give into fall and we begin to accept the onslaught of responsibilities that come with the change in season, ad clicks on Facebook climb. In fact it's a 38 point swing from July to August. From there on out it is pretty much up and to the right for Facebook the remainder of the year as back-to-school gives way to the holiday season.
On the other hand, Search (Google and Bing) remain fairly consistent throughout the year with the typical rise in the fourth quarter due to the holiday frenzy. It appears Facebook is influenced much more by seasonality throughout the year. I suspect it has to do with the social nature of the site. Search benefits from being a more utilitarian medium that become an integral part of our lives even when on vacation. Also, Google and Bing have been at the game a little longer while Facebook is still figuring out how best to monetize its user base. Likewise, advertisers have a solid decade and a half of experience with search under their belts; tweaking campaigns to fit the seasons is a known exercise.
Will be interesting to see how soon the seasonality of Facebook clicks start to mirror search.

Last Thursday, Google announced that exact keyword match will now include close variant keywords as well. Many of you may be wondering what this means for your campaigns and what action is required on your part. We're here to assure that there is no reason to panic!
For some background, advertisers currently have two options when it comes to matching ads to search queries: 1.) Only show the ad when the query exactly matched the keywords they set up in AdWords, or 2.) Allow Google to also match the ad to keywords and phrases that are very similar to the original one, including variations like plurals or misspellings. Starting in late September, the first option is going away and Google will always automatically include all of these close variants when it tries to match an ad to a search query. Today's announcement only applies to what Google calls the "phrase match" and "exact match" options. As the name implies, exact match only shows the ad when the query exactly matched the keyword (e.g. "women's hats"), while phrase match also shows it when the query includes other words (e.g. "buy women's hats").
While this change may initially be perceived as burdensome to Google advertisers who prefer tight control over their exact and phrase matched keywords, it does offer some benefit to advertisers. Namely, following the September update, Google advertisers will no longer have to build long lists of misspelled, abbreviated, and other close variations of keywords to get the coverage they want. Therefore, this update can help Google advertisers better manage keyword complexity across large Search programs.
Although Google is marketing this change as a benefit to advertisers, Marin recommends that our advertisers closely monitor their campaigns to determine how the September changes will impact their overall performance.
Google Shopping campaigns are a great opportunity for retail advertisers to review their current PLA campaigns and optimize them for even better results. However, as many retailers are managing sometimes millions of products across thousands of brands and hundreds of feeds, adapting to and mastering the new Shopping campaigns system can seem like a huge undertaking.
Below we've provided seven tips to help you succeed during (and well after) the campaign migration process:
Going beyond basic campaign management strategy, advertisers can obtain additional control and visibility over Shopping campaigns by following more advanced tips:
For more best practices to ensure a seamless transition to Google Shopping campaigns, check out our full-length guide here.
Now that you've familiarized yourself with the new changes and functionalities you can expect from Google Shopping campaigns, it's time to nail down where to start in your transition prior to the August rollout.
The first thing to note is that regardless of how an advertiser's existing PLA campaigns are set up today, there are several steps that they will need to take to migrate these campaigns over to the new Shopping campaigns in a smooth and seamless manner. Here's where to start:
Once Google Shopping campaigns are up and running, advertisers should monitor and analyze performance metrics to ensure that they are getting their desired results. These performance metrics should also be used to determine how to best optimize their campaigns going forward.
While the features of Google Shopping campaigns are aimed at providing advertisers with an improved and more streamlined user experience, you should also be aware of the changes that have been made to some existing functionality with the same objectives in mind. Below is a rundown of what's changed:
Now that you're armed with the tools to begin making this transition, be sure to stay tuned for tips on how to get the most out of your Google Shopping campaigns once you've gotten started.

I just saw this on the Food Network on the show "How To Boil Water". It was paired with a roast beef tenderloin. The tenderloin was cooked the same way as a lot of recipes already posted here so I won't duplicate it. However, I didn't find the recipe for the Mushroom Ragout so here it is. Hey - What's not to like about mushrooms, wine and heavy cream? You can use any combination of mushrooms or just one kind if that's what is available in your area. If Madeira wine isn't available you can use a dry white wine, but my preference for this recipe is a Madeira. The Shitake mushrooms have a hard stem so they must be removed but you can use the stems on the button and cremini mushrooms. You may have to cook the mushrooms in two batches if they won't fit in a single layer in your skillet.

AirFest 2011 scheduled lineup announced
Staff Report
Chicago Rockford International Airport (RFD) has announced the performer lineup planned for AirFest 2011 June 4 and 5. The show will include 14 military and civilian performers, including the previously-announced headliner, the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
Other performers include: military—the U.S. Army Golden Knights parachute team, U.S. Navy Leap Frogs parachute team, U.S. Navy F-18 Super Hornet, and the U.S. Navy F-15 Strike Eagle; civilian performers—Rich's Incredible Pyro, Bill Stein Airshows, The Firebirds, Sean D. Tucker, Dave Dacy Airshows, Matt Chapman Airshows, Lucas Oil Airshow, The Horsemen and Aerostars Aerobatic Team.
"Our goal is to make each AirFest bigger and uniquely better than the last so it remains the premier family-friendly event for the entire region, and the AirFest 2011 lineup does just that!" said Bob O'Brien, executive director of Chicago Rockford International Airport. "With the Blue Angels returning for the first time since 2007, and a great mix of other acts, this is bound to be an exciting show for the tens of thousands in attendance."
AirFest 2011 is also expected to feature more than 30 static aircraft on display. One of the special things about AirFest is that attendees can walk up to—sometimes step inside of—a range of military, commercial and civilian aircraft. AirFest 2011 will also include children's activities, concessions and other fun things to see and do.
AirFest 2011 tickets are still deeply discounted, but advance prices go up April 1. Attendees have until then to buy General Admission tickets at half of the gate price. Prices now are: Adults, $7.50 advance, $10 as of April 1, gate price $15. Youth (ages 5-12) $4 advance, $5 as of April 1, gate price $5. Children ages 4 and younger get in free; no tickets needed.
Other popular AirFest ticket packages, including the Family Four-Pack and Captain's Club chalet, will see ticket price increases April 1 as well.
"Now is the best time to get tickets if you haven't already. We always have a great show, but now we can proudly announce the fall lineup," said AirFest Director Geoff Oman. "We've kept General Admission tickets prices at the same level as last year, and offer great advance discounts because we want as many people as possible to enjoy AirFest!"
AirFest 2010 drew about 90,000 people, and RFD expects at least as many to come to this year's event.
AirFest 2011 will commemorate the centennial of naval aviation with the theme "Honoring Heroes." The show is one of only 32 events in the country that have been given Tier One status by the U.S. Navy this year, giving AirFest a boost in attracting performers and static aircraft.
Residents are invited to nominate their own "Hero" by sending RFD a story of someone from the Rockford area who serves the community. A Hero can be anyone: the men and women who have served and are serving in our military, a teacher who has helped mold our young people, a community volunteer, etc. For more information, visit FlyRFD.com.

|IM Chappell, TW Graveney, PBH May
DateLine: 10th July 2009
Game's apex body, ICC inducted three Ashes heroes, England's Tom Graveney and Peter May and Australia's Ian Chappell into its Hall of Fame.
 The induction ceremony was held on Thursday during the tea interval of the first Test between England and Australia.
 "Commemorative caps were presented to Graveney, Chappell and May's widow Virginia by the ICC President David Morgan, ECB chairman and ICC director Giles Clarke and former Australia captain and CA Director Allan Border," an ICC release said.
 Graveney, May and Chappell are part of a group of 22 Englishmen and 13 Australians within the initial intake of 55 players in the Hall of Fame, a joint venture between the ICC and the Federation of International Cricketers' Associations (FICA).
 In a career spanning 18 years, Graveney played 79 Tests for England, scoring 4,882 runs, including 11 centuries and finished with an average of 44.83.
 "My initial reaction was that I must have been the last of the 55 to have been picked," Graveney said on his induction.
 "It is an enormous honour and I feel very fortunate. When you look at the list it is so special and to see some of the great players that I played with and against on that list makes me especially proud," he added.
 May played 66 Tests for England in a career spanning 10 years. he scored 4,537 runs, that included 13 centuries and finished with an average of 46.77. He also captained England in a then-record 41 Tests, winning 20 and losing only 10.
 He died at his home in Hampshire on December 27, 1994, four days short of his 65th birthday.
 May's widow, Virginia, received the cap on behalf of her husband.
 "It's a great honour and I am very proud to collect the cap on Peter's behalf. I wish he was here to collect it himself as I know he would also have been very proud," she said.
 Ian Chappell appeared in 75 Tests from 1964 to 1980, scoring 5,345 runs, including 14 centuries and finished with an average of 42.42.
 " To find yourself in a list that includes such great players is satisfying and humbling," Chappell said.

It's Wed: whines & wahoos
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 02-27-2013 - 3:49am
|Wed, 02-27-2013 - 3:56am
My whine: still ill, it's really getting me down. Just when I think i am starting to feel human again, I'm not.
I miss Coffee. She's better off over with dil who takes her in the forest to run around in the snow every afternoon while pushing the baby. Have to admire her for taking him out rain, snow , sleet or hail.... he needs his fresh air. (she sends me photos) That's a wahoo.
My wahoo: My plants are starting to bloom, happy about that,,, amazing what a little fertilizer can do . OH and BTW,,,ANN, how are you doing with your orchid? If you have not watered it,, thinking you should.. hope you got my directions. Thought about you yesterday while watering mine... I have 6 of them.
|Wed, 02-27-2013 - 9:01am
My Whines: It snowed overnight. We got about 5 inches. Not as much as the counties along the lake, but enough to be depressing to look at. It's almost March! I want it to be Spring!!!
I didn't sleep well last night. I kept waking up really thirsty and my back hurt more than usual.
I think our humidifier on the furnace is broken. I haven't heard it in awhile, so that could account for why I was so "dry". And why I'm getting zapped by static electricity all the time.
My Wahoos: My orchid is still alive. I watered it over the weekend. It seemed odd to have it in such loose stuff that the water ran right through, but I guess that's all it needs. It gets a little sun in the morning, and on gray days, I have a grow light that I shine on it for a little while (from a distance, but it's light and I thought the plant might like it, lol).
I'm making clam chowder in the slow cooker for my lunch. It's a very easy recipe, but I think it's good, so easy is just a bonus, lol.
|Wed, 02-27-2013 - 9:38am
Yes the orchid substance is very different. Mine is like little pieces of bark almost..... the less you do with them the better. What color is it?

I love winter & the snow but come March I am ready for Spring! This is NH & I must be patient for April!
OH yes....The FULL MOON effect was active this week! Crazy people everywhere!

Ann...so glad you did not get hit too hard! I sure hope Donna is ok and others in the midwest & middle states.Here we have gotten all our winter storms in the past 3 weeks and it's not done!
I hate when it gets cold & dry in the house...so staticy & everything zaps...GGGRR!
Your orchid sounds pretty. I am good with houseplants not anything delicate

I just could not bring myself to WHINE about the boards today...lol I was enjoying chatting the other the day until the board decided I needed to keep logging back in.
LOVE the Wahoo !

Suzan...Awww..sorry you're still not feeling well. Gosh, you were just beginning to get out to build up stamina and work on walking again and then boom..not well enough yet. Some of these things take longer to get over them. Hope you get to see Coffee and the rest of your family again soon.
Wonderful that your plants are beginning to bloom!! I don't have any spring bulbs planted at this house, but loved seeing them peeking their noses up at my former house. I used to buy myself fresh flowers often, too, but the prices keep going up and up so I don't do that much anymore either. I'll just wait until spring to enjoy my neighbors plants and until we can finally plant annuals too!!

What this no-frills sandwich shop lacks in atmosphere it makes up for with monstrous Italian heroes. Hot heroes are better than cold. The hot roast beef version, topped with natural jus and piled high with crispy fried eggplant and creamy housemade mozzarella—gave Defonte's its stellar reputation. Kick up the flavor by ordering it on garlic bread.

text: 0 MEASURING WORKING TIME: AN ALTERNATIVE APPROACH TO CLASSIFYING TIME USE1 by Eivind Hoffmann & Adriana Mata Bureau of Statistics Introduction and background 1. Most regular statistics on working time and working time arrangements are based on information collected through Labour Force Surveys, see e.g. ILO (1990b) or through Establishment Surveys, see e.g. ILO (1995). However, it has for a long time been argued that to be reliable and valid the measurement of actual time worked has to be integrated into a framework which accounts for all time use activities, see e.g. Watts & Skidmore (1978), Hoffmann (1981), Niemi (1983), Mehran (1988) and Mata (1993). By doing so one might be able to not only (i) improve the precision and reduce biases in the measurement of total time worked; but also (ii) obtain estimates of the scheduling of work activities; and (iii) obtain estimates for the way time is used at work, which are the time use issues of interest to users of statistics on working time. In particular, improved information on what women and men are actually spending time on when at work may provide basis for better understanding segregation between men and women within similar occupations and why women have less chances of being promoted to supervisory positions. 2. The most developed of frameworks for the analysis of time use are those incorporated into the Classifications of Time Use Activities (CTUA) used by Time Use Surveys (TUS), see e.g. Eurostat (1996a). The categories defined in a CTUA generally reflect both the 'type of activity' and the 'context' of time use activities. The type of activity describes what the respondent did. The 'context' is multi-dimensional, consisting of e.g. 'where', 'for what purpose (or for whom ) and with whom the activity has been undertaken. Although generally used as the main criteria for clustering activities into categories, the context variables are not applied in a consistent way at the different levels of the classification. The result is that the categories defined represent a heterogeneous mix of 'type of activity' and a large number of different variables, as illustrated in the box below. 1 Based on a note prepared for discussion at the Expert Group Meeting to Review Trial International Classification for Time Use Activities (ICTUA), 13-16 October 1997, New York. The views expressed are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect those of the International Labour Office or its Bureau of Statistics. The authors apologize for all errors and omissions, and would welcome comments and suggestions for improvements and correction. Address: CH-1211 GENEVE 22, Switzerland; Fax:+ 41 22 799 6957; e-mail: email@example.com and email@example.com 8 Criteria used to make distinctions at the different levels of a conventional CTUA Between 1- Between 2-digit digit groups groups Between 3-digit groups work purpose of organization of activiti the activity working time (whether es (i.e. it is overtime or whether for not); location of pay, profit activity (eg., at or family home or not); gain or main/secondary job; not) status in employment (e.g. paid work, home based work, self- employment work and unpaid work); whether domestic work or other work type of activity Housewor type of activity ; k one group of children activiti s activities es type of activity child for whom and type of activity . family care shopping type of type of good or activiti activity service purchased; es type of activity type of good or service purchased Communit purpose of type of activity y work the activity type of activity Educatio type of formal/informal n activity studies; one group activiti for children s es learning activities when studies are formal, type of activity ; for other type of studies, type of course followed; no clear criteria to distinguish within children s minor group. Socializ type of activity ing and for some minor hobbies groups, with whom or where ; for other minor groups, type of activity personal type of activity care type of activity and where Travelli purpose of the ng activity activiti type of activity . es No specification is made as to whether the person is driving or being driven. Note: Based on elements in Eurostat (1996a) and)UNSD (1997a and b). 9 3. The use of different similarity criteria in different parts of the classification, have resulted in a confusion about where activities of the same type are to be classified in the proposed classification. We may find, for example, that "learning" is classified differently when it takes place at work than when in the context of school or free time; the same is true of "eating" or "having coffee" when at work, socializing or otherwise; of "caring" for family members or for non-family members through an organisation; of "baking", "repairing", etc. for own household or for other households; of "talking on the phone" if connected to child care, if socialising or if done at work. Thus the use of context to define aggregate categories in a CTUA will results in internal duplications, because the same type of activities are carried out in different contexts. It may also lead to an incomplete observation of those activities which are not separately identified in all contexts, e.g. activities done at work. Depending on the variables used to define context there is also a danger of external duplication, because distinctions are made within the classification which relate to variables for which other classifications exist, e.g. eating in restaurants duplicates the context variable location . These features can be observed in the CTUAs presented in e.g. Eurostat (1996a) and UNSD (1997a and 1997b) 4. The first of the latter references also clearly demonstrates that trying to open the black box of employment to specify what it is that is done during that one fourth to one third of the time used by a majority of the adult population will add significantly to both internal and external duplications, because many of the things we do when working for pay, profit or family gain are of the same type as the activities carried out in other contexts: e.g. producing goods, travelling, reading, writing and talking (face- to-face and on the telephone), waiting and eating. Sleeping, preparing food, caring for children and cleaning house will also be work activities in some jobs. 5. Thus looking at how the categories in CTUAs are conventionally defined, it is clear that (a) to classify a time interval (or slot in the terminology of Harvey (1990)) one needs information both about the type of activity ( what is done) and about the context of the activity, see e.g. Eurostat (1990b); (b) the distinction between employment and other activities is based entirely on consideration of context, i.e. whether the activities are undertaken for pay, profit or family gain ; and (c) the proposed sub-division of the employment category is also mainly in terms of context, e.g. whether the activity is the main job or a secondary one; and (d) the category employment is a black box with respect to the type of activities undertaken at work. Thus statistics relevant to issue (iii) mentioned above cannot obtained when using this type of CTUA, and those on dimension (i) are not optimized. 6. The objective of this note is to present for discussion an approach to the construction of a set of typologies for time use which will ensure that all time intervals will be coded to both the type of activity undertaken and to variables which will describe the context in which the activity takes place. The use of this approach will ensure that the CTUA will have only one category for each type of activity , thus simplifying this aspect of the coding process. It will also make explicit the type of additional information which is needed to ensure that each time interval can be assigned to the type of descriptive and analytical category needed by the users, e.g. that the travel slots can be grouped together for the analysis of total travel time and travels patterns, but allocated to the different purposes for which one travel when the total time devoted to them is to be the focus of analysis. 10 Methodological considerations 7. All classifications used when collecting and presenting statistics represent discrete value sets for one or more of the variables (to be) measured in statistical data collections, or for which statistics are to be presented. Some of these value sets can be very simple, such as the set [male, female] used for the variable 'sex', while others can be quite complex with a large number of categorical values. The latter classifications are often multidimensional and hierarchical, as exemplified by the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO-88) and the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC, rev.3) as well as by the CTUAs used in national time use surveys. 8. While the presentation and analysis of statistics may require the use of multi-dimensional variables with corresponding value sets, both data capture and explanations of how measurements are made will normally be facilitated by the use of one dimensional variables and value sets, which can be combined to create the multi-dimensional variables needed for description and analysis of results. 9. Despite the slightly confusing terminology which will result it seems useful to accept the conventions that (i) "whatever an individual spends time on is considered an activity in the time use context" and that (ii) "productive activities are those whose performance can be delegated to another person with the same desired result", see UNSD (1997a), and that the latter activities can be designated as "work"1. An in-depth discussion is needed of the criteria to be used to decide when an 'activity' at the most detailed level in a CTUA differs from another, and of the main similarity criteria to be used for creating more aggregate groups in such classification schemes: i.e. should 'reading' for entertainment, information and learning be regarded as the same or as different 'activities', and should they all be included in one more aggregate group "reading", or in three different aggregate groups "entertainment", "information" and "learning"? One way to accommodate more than one 'answer' to these questions is to regard the type of activity variable as an action, and the purpose, location, etc. of the activity as the context variable, i.e. 'reading' is the operational 'type of activity' characteristic, and 'entertainment', 'information' and 'learning' are characteristics of the context variable 'purpose'. 10. From (i) and (ii) it follows that "economic activities", defined as 'those activities which are considered as inside the production boundary defined for the System of National Accounts (SNA-93), see Inter-Secretariat Working Group on National Accounts (1993), is a sub-set of all productive activities and that 'market activities', defined as "those activities which are carried out for pay in cash or kind or for (the expectation of) profit", will be a sub-set of all economic activities. These sub-sets of the productive activities can only be distinguished by considering the 'context' in which they are 1 Note, however, that we will follow standard ILO terminology and use "workers" as designation for all persons who engage in 'economic' activities, i.e. who can be classified as either 'employed'or unemployed , see e.g Hussmanns et al (1990). 11 performed. They cannot be defined only on the basis of what it is that is being done, i.e. the actions as such. 11. The economic activities to be classified by any CTUA must be activities which are undertaken by persons, and to describe their type is to describe directly what the persons do. Other aspects of these activities, e.g. the contractual situation of the activities or the ultimate outcome of them, are better described, i.e. classified, with reference to the 'job' which all employed persons hold, by definition. A job is defined as a set of tasks and duties executed, or meant to be executed, by one person whether in paid employment or self-employment, see ILO (1990a). All work related time intervals thus have to be related to a job, and a number of variables which are central for the description of work activities are characteristics of jobs, such as the contractual situation which is described directly by the 'status in employment' variable, see ILO (1993). In addition, jobs can be classified by the activity or function of their place of work, i.e. by industry', see United Nations (1990). These variables have value sets which are consistent with categories used in SNA-93 for the corresponding variables defined there. 'Jobs' can also be described by the variable 'occupation', which classifies jobs according to their 'main tasks and duties', see ILO (1990). Illustration of an alternative set of time use relevant classifications 12. It seems logical to use as basis for the specification of work- related activities in a CTUA those tasks and duties which are to be performed at work, i.e. in jobs. From this it follows that it is the task specifications of a classification of 'occupations' which are most likely to provide a list of the type of work-specific activities which are performed in a job. Therefore the terminology of the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO-88) has been used as the main source for the tentative list of work specific activities in an Alternative Classification of Time Use Activities (ACTUA) presented in Annex I to illustrate the alternative approach to typologies for time use activities which is advocated in this note. 13. It may be convenient to incorporate into a classification such as this ACTUA some context variables which are both important and very specific to one or a few types of time use activities. Thus the CTUA and the list of relevant, separate context variables should be developed together when using the approach advocated in this note. The most important context variables incorporated into the trial ICTUA presented in UNSD (1997a) are listed in Annex II. Internationally agreed value sets should be developed also for them, to serve as models for corresponding national value sets and to facilitate international comparisons of national TUS results. Other variables will be needed as well, e.g. to describe further the type of jobs and the training activities undertaken. Some of them already have internationally agreed value sets, e.g. 'occupation' (ISCO-88), 'industry' (ISIC, rev.3), 'status in employment' (ICSE-93), 'institutional sector of employment (in SNA-93)' and 'educational activity' (ISCED). 12 Concluding remarks 15. It is clear that the approach to the classification of time use activities advocated in this note will represent a break with the CTUAs which have been used, successfully, by the TUS carried out in many countries since the pioneering work of Szalai (1972). However, we do not see this as an important argument against the approach proposed by us, for these reasons: (i) The trial ICTUA presented in UNSD (1997b) introduces a necessary and long overdue extension of the traditional CTUAs to specify specific work related activities. This in itself represents a significant break with the traditional CTUAs, and it brings out some of the inherent weaknesses of the approach used in the past, such as the duplications. These weaknesses have been recognized earlier, but not seen as important. However, they are likely to become very important with the extension to work related activities and the specification of a 3 digit level in the trial ICTUA. (ii) Comparability with the results of earlier surveys is an important objective which will not be jeopardized by the adoption of the approach to the classification of time use activities proposed in this note. What is important for comparability over time of survey results is not that the structure of the past classification be maintained, but that users of new classifications are able to reconstruct the old classification by combining and reorganising component parts of the new instruments. In that way tables can be constructed which are consistent with tables made from previous surveys. With the approach we advocate in this paper this will in fact be easier, not more difficult.
