Someone in Dallas this weekend asked me if when I started a new series, such as Rhymes with Love, am I tempted to bring in old characters from my other series. The answer: Boy, am I ever!
Old, familiar characters are what makes writing a series fun.
Anyone who has read my Danvers series will notice I have a slight fondness for Temple. He appears in nearly every book. I adore that man, er, character, to the point that borders on obsession. I had thought that after giving him his own book, Stealing the Bride, that would be enough. … Read more »

A man's call led police to arrest a 16-year-old Milwaukee boy who allegedly was selling boxes containing watches, batteries and coins as iPhones.
According to the Wauwatosa police report:
The man met up with the boy at McDonald's, 12324 W. North Ave., at 6 p.m. Jan. 13, thinking he was going to buy an iPhone for $220.
The boy asked to see the cash before letting the man open the box. The man passed over the money, and the boy dropped the box and ran out the store.
The man opened the box and much to his dismay, AAA batteries sat in place of his would-be iPhone.
He gave police the boy's cellphone number, physical description and information about the exchange. He described the boy as 6 feet tall, skinny, and having dreadlocks.
Officers went to McDonald's on Jan. 17 to collect video surveillance footage of the incident and noticed a 6-foot-tall skinny boy with long dreadlocks and two iPhone boxes.
They asked the boy what he was doing, to which he replied selling iPhones via Craigslist. The boy said the buyer wasn't interested because he wanted to see what was in the boxes before handing any cash over.
Officers looked in the boxes and found AAA batteries, coins and wrist watches. They arrested him on the spot.

Grass stains are a tough problem to remove from sneakers without damaging the shoe. You want your shoes clean and respectable when you put them on. There are several methods available to remove grass stains from your shoes.
Start by removing the laces from the shoes and fill the shoe with crumpled newspaper to avoid getting the inner sole wet. Test spot a small area of the tongue hidden under the laces and allow two hours to dry when you are unfamiliar with the cleaning product or the shoe material. Blot colored fabrics with a white cloth to test for fading.
~Canvas Sneakers~
Fill a small bowl with mild carpet cleaner foam and use a soft sponge to clean the canvas. Rinse with a damp sponge and dry with a towel. For canvas sneakers that have a rubber toe guard, use a pink pearl eraser to remove embedded grass marks.
~Canvas Field Sport Sneakers~
Remove heavy grass terrain from field sneakers in the dishwasher. First, spray them off to remove any clumps of sod. Remove the laces and place the shoes face down on the top rack. Add liquid dishwasher detergent and select heavy-duty cycle. Remove the shoes after the final rinse cycle and allow to air dry.
~Leather Sneakers~
Use a leather shoe-cleaning wipe for the leather surfaces. Clean the cloth areas with a soft sponge and carpet cleaner. Remove grass stains from the sides of the soles with a white vinyl eraser. Work a small soft brush around eyelets and wipe clean with a damp sponge. Apply a leather shoe-finishing product when the shoes are completely dry to keep the leather from becoming hard and cracking.
~Vinyl Sneakers~
Scrub vinyl sneakers clean with a wet cloth and some warm water and mild laundry detergent. The surface of this material is much more durable and has a glossy water repellent sealer. Use a soft brush for stubborn stains but refrain from strong household cleaners.
Laundry stain removing products are effective for shoes pretreated and fully immersed in water. Bleach products can yellow shoe soles and cause canvas to tarnish. Use baking soda on the grout areas of the sole to brush out deep grass marks.
Alcohol based products like hair spray, fingernail polish remover, and jewelry cleaner causes damage to leather finishes. They will also remove the adhesive used to hold emblems on the shoes. When using aerosol sprays like a scotch guard product, tape over areas that need protected.

Here in America, we emphasize equal rights and fairness. Nobody gets special privileges because of where or to whom they were born. Nobody gets to cut to the front of the line.
If you get to pick first today, it's only fair that I get to pick first tomorrow. It's a level playing field for everybody because nobody is better or more privileged than anyone else. It's a great system.
The problem comes when we transfer this way of seeing to the Creator of the universe. We sing, "Jesus is my friend." And He is. We celebrate that "Jesus is the servant of all." And He is.
There are few vocations that can engender burnout like the pastorate. The demands on a pastor's time, emotions and energy can be overwhelming. When I was a pastor, I often felt at least the symptoms of burnout.
I recently spoke with 17 pastors who had experienced burnout or who felt they came precariously close to burnout. The good news about these pastors is that they moved out of burnout, and now they are re-engaging in exciting and visionary ministries.
So I asked them the obvious question: What did you do to reverse the dark spiral of burnout? The question was open-ended, so they could respond with as many answers as they desired. When it was all said and done, I tabulated 12 different responses from the 17 pastors. Obviously, many of them gave similar answers.
Read any leadership book today and within the first few pages you'll hear about the critical function of vision in your organization. To lead effectively without a shared vision is simply not possible.
But sharing the vision takes skill. And sewing vision into the hearts of those I lead is a skill I continue to refine.
Recently, our fpKIDS team worked together to craft 5-to-6 simple, vision-driven phrases. Why? It's because our greatest opportunity to connect with volunteers and parents is on the weekend … amidst the hustle and bustle of church services.
The most important question any church planter can ask is "Why am I planting a church?" I have had some conversations with some great guys lately who I think are really struggling with that question.
All of us struggle with why we are in ministry on Monday morning, but we need to evaluate our motivation on a bigger scale. Let's look at what I think are some lousy reasons to plant a church and then share a great reason I recently heard.
First, the lousy reasons:
"I want to reinvent church." This one comes in a lot of flavors, but it always comes down to the bottom line of, "I have a better way to do church." More hymns, no hymns, pews, no pews, more art, more coffee, more beer, less structure, less formality. We're going to be radically sold out. We're not going to cater to Christians. We're going to go deep. We're going to go wide. We're going to be a church for people who absolutely abhor the awful church that I'm currently drawing my paycheck from.
I believe the most overlooked key to growing a church is this: We must love unbelievers the way Jesus did. Without His passion for the lost, we will be unwilling to make the sacrifices necessary to reach them.
Jesus loved lost people. He loved spending time with them. He went to their parties. From the Gospels, it is obvious that Jesus enjoyed being with seekers far more than being with religious leaders. He was called the "friend of sinners" (Luke 7:34). How many people would call your church that?
Jesus loved being with people and they felt it. Even little children wanted to be around Jesus, which speaks volumes about what kind of person He was and what kind of pastor He'd be. Children instinctively seem to gravitate toward loving, accepting people.

The regional annexes to this report and box 4 contain more detailed accounts of regional economic trends, including country-specific forecasts.
Developing country GDP is expected to expand by 6 percent in each of 2013 and 2014, somewhat slower than the 6.3 percent average pace during the first 7 years of this century. For 2012, weak carryover from the year before will be reflected in a deceleration of annual growth in all regions despite firming quarterly growth, but subsequent developments diverge across regions.
In South Asia, growth is anticipated to remain subdued, as growth in India settles at around 7 percent over the 2012-14 period. Elsewhere, the acceleration in 2013 and 2014 is expected to be strongest in the Middle-East & North Africa as the conflicts that are currently disrupting activity in several countries in the region are assumed to gradually resolve during the course of 2012. Growth in several large middle-income countries (notably, Brazil and China) is expected to moderate somewhat in 2014 as countries bump up against capacity constraints.
Despite the slower growth projected for developing countries, and the acceleration in high-income countries, the developing world will still account for more than half of global growth throughout 2012/14.

text: Cognex Chairman Launches 'Business Is Good' Initiative Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 6 Sep 2012 post a comment Robert J. Shillman, Chairman of the machine vision company Cognex, has had enough of President Barack Obama's anti-business rhetoric. Shillman is launching a "Business Is Good" (B.I.G.) campaign to "counteract the 'Big Lie' that successful businesses and the people who run them are bad," a sentiment attributes to Obama and his reelection campaign. "During his 2008 campaign, President Barack Obama promised that he would bring fundamental change to our society, and, unfortunately, he has delivered on that promise," Shillman wrote in a letter to his company's shareholders. "Since his election, a worrisome, anti-business movement has emerged that is harmful to our nation." Shillman wrote that Obama's anti-business rhetoric "not only criticizes businesses and the people who run them, but it demonizes them. It is a divisive movement that pits our citizens against each other, and it could result in a destructive, downward spiral for our economy and our country." According to Shillman, the B.I.G. campaign will "spread the word about how business and free enterprise are at the core of America's success." And though politicians on the left "shout about the need for government to 'spread the wealth around,'" Shillman noted Cognex has never taken "money from the government to fund our growth." "Instead, we turned to the capital markets... both independent and corporate venture capital firms to raise the necessary funds to grow our company until we reached profitability," Shillman wrote. "We want everyone to understand that business not only creates wealth for those who work hard, work smart and take calculated risks, but it also creates jobs that provide opportunity and the means for a better life for everyone who is willing to invest time and effort to help their business succeed," Shillman wrote. Shillman boasts Cognex "is a great example of the benefits of the free enterprise system" because "our company was founded on the dreams of three young people at a time in the United States when entrepreneurship was encouraged and success in business was praised." "What began in 1981 as a startup funded by my life savings of $87,000 is now the largest and most successful machine vision company in the world, with a market value of over $1.5 billion," Shillman wrote. "When I was a boy, there was a common saying which was generally accepted to be true: 'What's good for General Motors is good for America.' The essential meaning of that saying is still true today… what's good for business is good for America."

A fight between two boys got out of hand Wednesday afternoon as Omaha police were called after one fired a BB gun at the other.
It happened near 56th and Sprague. The pellet hit the boys' eye, cutting it up. "Being at work and then having to come home to my son having his eye shot out with a gun, you know a kid at that age, he shouldn't even have a BB gun," said the victim's mother, Shannon Triplett.
Channel 6 News checked with Canfield's sporting goods. They sell BB guns, but only to those 18 and older. The salesman said as far as he knows, there's no "official" age limit on the books in Omaha.

Send in the Clowns: Cirque du Soleil Founder Yuks Up ISS Vacation
Perhaps they'll play "Send in the Clowns" when Cirque du Soleil founder
Guy Laliberte departs for the International Space Station Sept. 30. After all,
the Canadian billionaire, who paid $35 million for a tourist seat on the next
Russian mission to the ISS, said Sept. 2 he's bringing along nine red clown
During a video conference Sept. 1 from the Russian space complex at Star City, where he is undergoing a training stint for the trip to the ISS, Laliberte promised no fire breathing (his original calling) but said, perhaps, a weightless juggling act might be in order.
Despite the yuks, Laliberte calls his planned 12 days in space a "poetic social mission" and a chance to promote his commitment to water conservation and his One Drop Foundation. While in space, Laliberte announced, he will coordinate shows in 14 cities on five continents on Oct. 9. Each show will emphasize the importance of water.
According to Laliberte, former U.S. Vice President Al Gore and performers Peter Gabriel, Shakira and U2 have already committed to make an appearance. Laliberte said he was surprised they accepted his invitation but, "All these people are with me because they share the same worries we have about water. They also share my belief that through art and emotion we can convey a universal message."

"Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown." Forty years ago that now-iconic line concluded the most acclaimed murder mystery film of the 1970s, catapulting the captivating Jack Nicholson to leading-man stardom and setting off a whirlwind of public interest in the Los Angeles water supply disputes that inspired the movie. Robert Towne's award-winning screenplay contains all the elements of classic film noir: morally ambiguous characters, a bewitching femme fatale, and a hardboiled detective caught in the center of a convoluted tale of intrigue and murder. But instead of your anti-hero walking among shadows in black and white, John Alonzo added a contemporary touch with his warm color cinematography, illuminating every golden light leak streaking across the film's dark interiors. This Roman Polanski-directed gem is screening tonight, and you can mouth the film's final one-liner along with every other cinephile in the theater.

Toss Away Failed Obligations
Annually, the third Saturday in July is unofficially dubbed "Toss Away the 'Could Haves' and 'Should Haves' Day."
On this day people write down their failed obligations, their "could haves" and "should haves," on a piece of paper and then throw that list into the trash. Then they make this resolution: "From this day forward, I choose not to live in the past—the past is history that I can't change. I can do something about the present—I choose to live in the present."

NEW YORK - Chairman of the US Federal Reserve Ben Bernanke and former Treasury secretary Hank Paulson are at the centre of an investigation by New York attorney-general Andrew Cuomo into the Fed-brokered takeover of Merrill Lynch by Bank of America (BoA). The two men are alleged to have threatened to fire BoA president and former chairman Ken Lewis when he attempted to block the merger between the two firms by invoking his rights under a material adverse change clause to kill the deal. Lewis had allegedly discovered the billions in undisclosed Merrill losses that would subsequently force BoA to accept successive federal bail-outs to stay solvent. Lewis told Cuomo's investigators that Paulson - who says he was acting at the behest of Bernanke - threatened Lewis and his entire board with dismissal should they block the merger, which the regulators, fearing the systemic risks of a Merrill collapse, were determined to complete at all costs.
If the result turned out to be BoA insolvency, Paulson allegedly told Lewis the US Treasury would provide cash from the Troubled Asset Relief Program (Tarp) to help swallow the pill. Lewis has also claimed that, because the US authorities did not want to publicly disclose their Tarp pledge until after the merger closed, Paulson and Bernanke rejected Lewis's request for commitment in writing. Lewis then complied with the their demands with the approval of his board, but without disclosing to shareholders the state of Merrill's finances. The merger closed on January 1, followed by a $20 billion Tarp bail-out and $118 billion asset guarantee announced on January 16, the same day BoA revealed a $15 billion fourth-quarter loss at Merrill.
The shareholder revolt still plaguing BoA is complicated by former Merrill chief executive John Thain's decision to pay out $3.6 billion in 2008 staff bonuses early, before the merger was completed. Lewis claims he was not informed about the bonus payments, which were ultimately borne by BoA. Thain, who was fired in January, has countered by pointing out that a letter signed by Lewis exists that permitted unspecified payouts from Merrill's $5.8 billion bonus pool. A BoA spokesman's comment was that it is "time to move on". News that BoA requires a $33.9 billion recapitalisation to pass the Treasury's bank stress tests prompted Lewis to say: "We do not need new government money. Our game plan is to get the government out of our bank as soon as possible."

MADISON, Wis. — Campus groups at the University of Wisconsin, Madison are promoting a new city ordinance that allows private cabs more area access after the decision was made to end the SAFEcab program last year, The Badger Herald reported. The Associated Students of Madison Student Services Finance Committee voted to cut the SAFEcab service at the end of last spring semester. A committee spokesperson told the paper that the service was "expensive and underutilized." For the full story, click here.

With the flagship Transformer Pad Infinity (TF700) release right around the corner and the release of the budget-oriented Transformer Pad (TF300) a few months ago, Asus has filled out it's line-up of 10" quad-core Android tablets. Obviously, most people would opt for the highest of the high-end (that'd be the TF700) if they were just looking to blow money. Unfortunately, most people aren't just looking for ways to spend as much money as possible, so instead, they spend enough to cover their needs.
The ASUS Transformer Prime is the hottest Android tablet on store shelves right now, and for good reason; it's thin, fast, powerful, and well-featured. But there's one shortcoming that ruffled a lot of feathers: very poor GPS performance.
Last week, the CyanogenMod team launched the first CM9 nightly builds for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and Motorola XOOM. As of today, the following devices also have CM9 nightly builds available:
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wi-Fi and I/O Edition (download: p4wifi) - yay for the latter, as it seems Samsung completely abandoned it - I believe mine is still running 3.1 with no updates in sight.
While at the Google booth earlier today, ASUS was kind enough to let us take a look at the upcoming Transformer Pad Infinity (basically, a beefed up TF Prime), albeit a version we had not yet seen.
The TF700KG is likely going to be a Europe-only device (unless it were to be picked up by a major carrier here in the US), as it has a 4G LTE SIM slot on it, and runs on a Qualcomm S4 MSM8960 dual-core processor.
Back at CES, ASUS lit a bit of a wildfire by announcing a new iteration of the Transformer Prime with the model number TF700T. ASUS insisted that this new Prime would not replace the old Prime. To further drive that point home, the Taiwanese company has rebranded the TF700T as the Transformer Pad Infinity and placed it on the top rung of its rather varied tablet ladder.
Here's the specs for the Transformer Pad Infinity.
Early last month, it was revealed to much outcry that the Transformer Prime had a locked bootloader. Angry customers took to the forums to vent and started a petition to get Asus to change its stance. And just 24 hours later, that's what happened, with Asus promising an unlock tool down the road.
Today Asus delivered, with the unlock tool hitting the TP's support site:
TL;DR: Caveat emptor.
The company strongly suggests customers stay away from unlocking the bootloader, stating:
Just 9 days ago, Asus rolled out an update for the quad-core Transfomer Prime that brought things to build 188.8.131.52. Today, a new (apparently incremental) was released that brings things up to 184.108.40.206. The only official word we have on the update is from Gary Key, Technical Marketing Manager at Asus, in an XDA thread:
If you lost root after updating your Transformer Prime with the latest OTA, we have good news: thanks to a new method found by Android hacker Saurik, you can now root once again.
So, you ready to make this happen? Let's get started.
First things first, you'll need to grab a couple of files.
Once you've downloaded the required files, plug your Prime into your computer, fire up adb, and enter the following commands (one at a time, of course):
adb push mempodroid /data/local
adb push su /data/local
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/mempodroid
adb shell /data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 mount -o remount,rw '' /system
adb shell
/data/local/mempodroid 0xd9ec 0xaf47 sh
At this point, you should be in a root shell session (indicated with the pound sign).
The tour de force Asus Transformer Prime (which I reviewed in early December and came away highly impressed by) is listed at HH Gregg for just $400 - that's both in store (if you can find it one available, anyway) and online, too. That may not seem like seem like a bargain for the uninitiated who are more accustomed to the $400 price tag of the original Transformer, but keep in mind that this is the newer, much sleeker, and much more powerful Tegra 3-touting Prime model, which normally retails for $500 .
Yesterday, Nvidia's CEO announced that the Ice Cream Sandwich (that's Android 4.0 for those of you new to the game) update for the quad-core Asus Transformer Prime would begin rolling out immediately. Sure enough, users started receiving the update, and we managed to snag and host the OTA ourselves (as well as help you prevent it from breaking root). For most, the update brought everything you'd expect from the hot new version of Android: even smoother, snappier performance, sleeker transitions, and various other perks.

GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) Transportation officials are warning people to stay off closed sections of the popular Glenwood Canyon bike path because flooding caused by spring flooding has damaged some of its bridges.
Tracy Trulove, a spokeswoman for the Colorado Department of Transportation, tells The Glenwood Springs Post Independent that crews inspecting the trail between the Grizzly Creek Rest Area and Hanging Lake last week discovered some of the bridges had become detached from the retaining wall below Interstate 70.
CDOT crews have seen people riding their bikes past the closure signs along some sections where the waters have receded.

User Vision predicts how the rapidly evolving world of the web will impact the end user and the usability profession in 2002.
The web is an area where the only thing you can be certain of is change. In the past few years the changes in interface and interaction design have occurred so rapidly that most sites built 3 or 4 years ago look outdated today. There is constant innovation in design practices as well as web technology, and often the success of these innovations rests entirely on how well people can learn them and see their benefits. Because easy interaction between users and their technology is so critical to success of the web and e-commerce, it is worth looking at trends in web design practices & technologies as well as the evolving usability field itself.
The technologies
Some technologies released during the end of 2001 will start to have an impact this year. The highest profile IT event last year was the release of the new Windows XP operating system from Microsoft. This aims to benefit users through greater reliability and interconnectivity with peripheral digital media devices. It also includes the default browser Internet Explorer 6 which has only incremental improvements, mainly for image and cookie management, security and customisation. IE6 does not include controversial SmartTags (embedded links to Microsoft-approved online services that the browser adds to the normal content). Microsoft apparently heeded the outcry from web users fearing Smart Tags would result in the software giant directly influencing what we see on the web.
There are various interface improvements in XP, but the most significant user experience gain is ClearType, which will be familiar to users of Microsoft's PocketPC operating system. This is a form of anti-aliasing that works by addressing sub-pixels and calculating which should be dithered on or off. The result is crisp, non-pixellated text that's easier on the eye for prolonged reading and increases reading performance by 10–20%.
ClearType anti-aliasing up close. From a distance this dithering makes text on computers easier and faster to read.
The other major news from the Microsoft stable is .NET. Based on the Microsoft .NET Passport user-authentication system, .NET is an XML-based Web service that allows previously disconnected applications, devices, and services to work together. Functions in .NET allow greater customisation, personalization, and security control – if used properly. Microsoft is surely aware that success of .NET will rely at least as much on the usability of its interfaces as the promotion of this new service.
Eagerly awaited broadband will continue to be deployed in 2002 – slowly and not as cheaply as everyone would like. A recent UK online report showed that 60 to 65 percent of the UK population is now covered by 'affordable' broadband, yet less than 1% of UK households had rented broadband cable lines. Despite the potential user experience benefits such as streaming media, it is far too early for websites to compensate for the broader bandwidth by using larger file sizes, unless the individual users specifically requests them. Certainly for the next few years it will be wise to cater for the lower end of the bandwidth range.
Also, there will be improved use of Macromedia Flash on the web. More web developers will mature from making site intro animations to applying Flash's potential for real time data manipulation and presenting chronological information, such as demonstrations, in an intuitive way. Through its sensible application, Flash should start to shake off its reputation for being unusable, and more users will become comfortable with its interaction style.
The usability field
The benefits of usability will continue to be recognised by businesses with an online channel. If anything, the downturn in technology funding has increased attention on the importance of getting a return on investment from web sites. E-commerce managers will increasingly seek proof that their web, interactive television and WAP sites provide a rewarding experience for their users and good return on investment. As a result, usability testing will start to become a standard practice for medium to large projects. The requirement will be driven from the business stakeholders rather than the technical or design managers who often dictate the actions in a web site development.
Web accessibility will continue to be a cause attracting many converts. Whether driven by a sense of social responsibility or fear of being sued, more companies and public services will make accessibility a requirement for their site development, and this may pave the way for them to address the issue of usability as well.
One of the challenges for the field will be how to conduct usability tests across a multiple device networks in the coming world powered by broadband and XML. There will be scenarios of people responding to an advertisement on their digital TV, from which they provide or request data to be handled by their mobile phone (voice or SMS), PDA and web channels. A positive, consistent user experience across multiple channels referencing the same data and metadata will be essential for users to take advantage of these networks. Usability testing in this environment will be more capital intensive and certainly more challenging.
Finally, the strong business case for usability improving e-commerce revenues, and increased general knowledge of the field means that more web service providers will jump on the usability bandwagon in 2002. The same people that two years ago were advising that your site needs a Flash introduction or streaming media elements may now be offering to 'do usability' for your web site. As in all areas of professional services, it is important to check the credibility and past experience of the providers. It will be particularly important to distinguish between those that offer traditional market research services, such as online surveys and focus groups, from those that provide user-centred design methodologies and empirical evidence through usability testing.
With the rapid pace of technological change, 2002 will surely introduce many other innovations that will have a critical human interface element. However, among all these changes one constant rule will remain – those that have been developed and tested with the end user firmly in mind are far more likely to succeed.

7 Tips to Get Your Content Shared More On Facebook
- Published on Saturday, 14 May 2011 22:56
- flow
- 9 Comments
Here are some great insights developed By Dan Zarella about how you can tweak your content to get more shares on Facebook. All credit for the graphs and research go to Dan.
1. Include Numbers in Your Titles and Stats in Your Posts
People love tangible data. If you can include specific numbers in your posts, such as an impressive statistic, people will want to share that statistic with their friend on Facebook. People also love lists. If you check out the title to this post "7 Tips to Get Your Content…..", you know exactly how much information you are about to get before you even read it.
2. People Share More on the Weekend
The difference in the number of shares on the weekend compared to during the week is actually pretty huge. This has a lot to do with the fact that Facebook is blocked at many company offices, and for good reason.
3. Certain Words Also get Shared More
Lucky us, the word Facebook is far and away the most shared. After that, people on the internet want to know "How" and "Why", and they like sharing articles with the words "best" and "most"
4. There are Also Certain Words you Should Avoid
Facebook users are just your everyday people. They are not social media nerds. The words "Google", "iPhone", and "Twitter" are shared less than average.
5. Talk About Sex or other Good things
Sex sells, everybody knows that. It also gets shared more. So if you can add some kind of sexy edge to your content, I'd highly recommend it. If thats not entirely appropriate for your audience, then publish articles with a positive spin on them, as those get shared more then average as well.
6. Write in Plain English
As the complexity of an article increases, the number of times it gets shared decreases. Try to avoid using big words or complicated sentence structures in your writing. The more people can understand you, the more they will want to share your content.
7. Include Videos
Articles that include videos tend to get more shares on Facebook. So if you can find a relevant video, go ahead and throw it in there. Although it seems to have an opposite effect on Twitter.
Hopefully these tips opened your eyes to some things you could be doing differently with your content to get it shared more on Facebook. Once again, all credit for the graphs and research go to Dan Zarella. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Cocoa Shortage Will Prove Sweet News For Top Makers 0 commentsResource investors worry about Peak Oil and Peak Gold. Now they can start worrying about Peak Chocolate. Certified fair-trade cocoa growers are abandoning the business:
Political unrest in the Ivory Coast, where 40 per cent of the world's cocoa beans are grown, has 'significantly' depleted the number of certified fair trade cocoa farmers.
Cocoa beans, unlike minerals or hydrocarbon deposits, are a renewable resource but the ideal conditions for their growth are limited. Like the best wine-growing regions, cocoa harvesting is a special source of supply subject to localized disruptions.
Reduced availability of cocoa means smaller producers will face margin pressure before large producers. Companies with global supply chains - like Nestle (OTCPK:NSRGY) and Hershey (NYSE:HSY) - can rapidly adjust their sourcing. Furthermore, their brand strength gives them pricing power as demand for their well-known candy bars is probably price inelastic. A Hershey chocolate bar is a known entity far more likely to retain its consumer appeal than a boutique fair-trade bar. Hershey doesn't disclose its suppliers but has a supply base in the hundreds, diverse enough to weather disruptions. That gives it flexibility that your favorite overpriced fair-trade certified organic candy maker does not have.
Rising prices for commodities are already compressing margins for producers in every sector. Now chocolate makers will experience the same pressure. Those with the most flexible supply chains will be left standing when the dust settles. High-minded fair-trade protest campaigns won't hurt larger producers if fair-trade growers aren't in business anymore due to political instability. The surge of boutique fair-trade chocolate makers in the last decade has likely run its course.Back To Anthony Alfidi's Instablog HomePage »

Love this comfy shirt Great quality Tshirt and the material is super comfy!!! September 8, 2014
Awesome Shirt My girlfriend loves thus shirt!!! I got this for her as a little gift and she went back to buy every color. September 8, 2014
This tee is perfect for exercising or lounging! This tee is so soft and light weight! It is great for exercising or relaxing. Comes in great colors as well! September 2, 2014
Nike Short Sleeve Signal T-Shirt This shirt is awesome - it is the perfect fit for running. It has high seems on the sides of the shirt which some people may not like, but I think it fits perfect! August 19, 2014
Excellent shirt! This shirt is very professional and I can wear it to work as a PE teacher. It is not tight and it fits loose and great! I have it in two colors-the black shirt and the teal. August 3, 2014
She loves it! Our 15 year old daughter bought this shirt and absolutely loves it. She likes that it isn't fitted and that its roomy and breezy. Definitely wants more. July 15, 2014
Very nice T-Shirt. This is not a regular fitted T-Shirt. It has a loose fit which looks great with shorts. Good to wear for a workout at gym or just everyday wear. I got a black one first and really liked this type of fit so I ordered another one. Comes in some really good colors too. July 14, 2014
Great for runs or just lounging around This shirt is very soft and super comfy. I love the cut and the way it hangs. Regarding sizing, I'm 5'3" 122 lbs and usually wear a 25/26 in jeans, the XS was perfect. I also tried on the S but it just felt like way too much fabric and was too loose. July 5, 2014
looks great on! Love it because it looks great on me and material is very soft. Design on front is not as soft, but neat. July 3, 2014
Awesome I love the shirt it's so comfortable!!..:) :) :) :) July 2, 2014

- Moody, rushed waitersJpc1000Dined on 15/11/2014Service was pretty bad, the waiters couldn't wait to get us out of the door. If you want a better experience go to the mamounia in Mayfair and avoid this one! Our preference was Mayfair but we couldn't get a booking so I thought I'd give the Knightsbridge one a go as my sister had flown in all the way from the highlands ! I was quite embarrassed that I had taken her there as the service was so poor. Food was good though, as were the cocktails.
- Lebanese delightKazzaDined on 27/10/2014Great atmosphere , succulent meats cooked to perfection and very informative pleasant staff , will be back !Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinnerluv2dineDined on 25/10/2014It is an average dining experience nothing wow as I read and saw from the pictures. It's a rather narrow restaurant which reduces visibility of the entire restaurant. The DJ was no where to be seen and the belly dancer was not around for long. I travelled with friends for over an hour and felt dissatisfied with the lack of choice in the menu and did not feel it was of actual value. We left without having dessert as there was not a variety and decided to head back home and have dessert there. It is unfortunate that we experienced this as we expected something of higher class in knights bridge and having planned this night out to go back to Luton! It was an overall unpleasant evening.Special Features:
- SpectacularFoodlover101Dined on 18/10/2014I recently dined here, for my partners birthday, from the service to the environment everything was amazing. The waiters were absolutely amazing, but the food was the highlight of the entire evening!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wowmounia :)HsloveDined on 18/10/2014Amazing food! It was my first visit to Mamounia and i had decided to surprise my other half. She was happy with my choice and she loved the food. I will definitely be coming againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent drinks and good foodLadybird07Dined on 4/10/2014I really enjoyed my dinner at Mamounia Lounge Knightsbridge. Food was very good and there is a good balance between price and quality. Also, the amount of food we had left us completely satisfied although we only had sharers and not main courses. I love drinks in this restaurant, they are carefully prepared and very tasty. The only thing I didn't like is the loud music when the belly dancer came. It was hard to talk with that noise.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Top Location . Lovely furnishingsAlfredDined on 30/9/2014Great location food Great location very nice staff very helpful very well furnished Nice outside area for relaxing.amd shisha toilets etc very very nicely doneSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice but slow waitersmoodiefoodieDined on 23/8/2014Went for dinner here before an event, friend had Lamb Meshuoe generous portions, good drinks but waiters were hard to get a hold of.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- dining in a corridorbrucknerDined on 2/8/2014shisha outside, smokey inside, ok on the corridor where we had dinner
- Excellent place!Yazzy1Dined on 1/8/2014Me and my partner went few days ago,was hot day so sat near the balcony and ordered lovely cold drinks! Which were lush - watermelon juice which was fresh and I wasnt sure which fresh lemonade to have so the lovely waitreaa recommended strawberry lemonade and it was amazing!! Meal came within 10 mins we didnt have starters on this occasion.His choice was fillet seabass and white rice and I chose chicken couscous,couscous was lovely and chicken was soft and tender! Best meal i had in ages! Will defo be going back soon,with the girls this time!!! Atmosphere was buzzing as alot of people were smoking shesha outside due to it being a very hot day! No complaints at all!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BrambleDined on 19/7/2014Excellent food and service. We had been a bit put off by previous reviews but all was really good.Special Features:
- Good cocktailsMarcellaDined on 13/7/2014The food was good although several of our choices on the menu were not available. The one bug was charging if you asked for extra bread, I don't think this is good. The food was fresh and large portions so don't over order. The restaurant was overly hot and we had to ask for the air con to be put on but the staff we obliging. The cocktails were great . What made it even better was the Open Table deal which gave us 40% off food, it made it good value.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- martyDined on 30/6/2014Not bad. A few issues trying to claim the Open Table 40% off offer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- YinkieDined on 25/5/2014Really great food and great service. I think based on the location you should know what to expect there. Unless you look like a billionaire I fear due to lack off effort to rearrange decor you will be sat next to the shisha area to eat your meals because the nice area is 'reserved for members'Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- RomanticOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 26/4/2014The service is top notch, the food tastes great. Recommend to anyone celebrating an anniversary!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved itRaz9Dined on 26/4/2014We went for a meal for my friends stag, wanted somewhere classy, great food and atmosphere, I wasn't disappointed. Plus the belly dancer was amazing 😉 service was great and the food was presented with class and the food had a true Arab taste with a twist, will definatley be going backSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great foodOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 23/4/2014Excellent food, waitress had limited English & knowledge ,ate early so no atmosphereSpecial Features:
- More staff out front neededFineDiningDined on 3/4/2014Really good food and beautiful venue. However, it was difficult to get the attention of staff as they disappeared! The shisha is very pricey at £35 plus £5 charge per person - but it was very good shisha. A shame we couldn't get someone to change the coal for us for a very long time so we asked for the bill and left. Good vegetarian options and reasonably priced food. I would go back as the food, drink and shisha was brilliant.Special Features:
- Celebrated in styleGreenNGoldDined on 22/3/2014I came here for my birthday as a group of 6. I mentioned that it was my birthday when reserving the table, so they bought out chocolate pudding and ice cream with a candle for me and free shots. I really enjoyed the food, as it was good value for money given the area the restaurant is situated. The entertainment was good with the bellydancer. I even danced alongside her much to the delight of my friends! The waitresses were very friendly and were accommodating with my friend's plentiful sauce requests.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice food but...ariddellDined on 8/3/2014.We couldn't really fault the food at the Mamounia lounge bit were quite put off by some of the sleazy behavior of some of the male staff who spent a lot of their time trying to find out about the love lives of their female colleagues. We even heard wolf whistles coming from the kitchen.. avoid.
- A Tardis on Brompton Rd.OllieT45Dined on 15/2/2014Whilst I was aware of the address the only thing missing is a prominent sign on the outside. Wonderful technology mobile phones, speaking to the young female member of staff, who was very polite and helpful saying to me you've just walked past, out she came and escorted me In error I had gone down a dead end passageway next door. Funnily enough the friends I had arranged to meet there did exactly the same thing, at least it created a laugh at the beginning of an excellent evening. Layout was excellent we where right at the back and could see everything that was going on. Staff service and food were all excellentSpecial Features:
- Food great but not good valueZeeGeeDined on 13/2/2014We booked a table for 7 and it was comfortable. We were not squashed or cramped. The food was amazing. I would recommend their speciality lamb. It was succulent and delicious. Only problem with the restaurant was that it was not good value for money. For the amount we paid I wish we would have received bigger portions. Having said that if I was in the area I would go back. Just wouldn't go out if my say go go there.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very good experiencePamelulaDined on 31/1/2014We ate here post theatre and were very pleased with our choice. The restaurant is almost opposite Harrods and only a short walk from the Royal Albert Hall. The quality of the food was excellent - fantastic starters including grilled hallumi and beautifully smooth hummus with lamb shwarma and pomegranate. Our mains were great. I prefer vegetarian and had some beautiful cooked goats cheese covered in black and white sesame seeds. Others had lamb shwarma and other lamb choices which were excellent. We then had lovely baklava for dessert. We left @ 9 just as the belly dancing started, which looked fun. The staff were very attentive and we all came away having had a thoroughly good experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good tagines1461Dined on 30/1/2014This place was my favourite for the pastilles and tagines. Tagine was great as ever but starters size was small!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good overallFoodFanaticDined on 11/1/2014Food and drinks were amazing. Only downside is that there is no lounge, this is openly advertised online. They even call it mamounia lounge?? Would only ever go there for food. Belly dancer had a very very short appearance! Good atmosphere overallSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellent choice!SusanTheFinanceDined on 4/1/2014We ordered a range of starters and shared. Each dish was prepared with love and care. The balance of flavours was perfect. Good selection of wine and beverages. We had a table in the window so we could people watch!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Après Theatre.AmboDined on 27/12/2013Arrived late ish 10:45. Very warm welcome, good table, place half full, attentive staff. Great food & service, will be back. Thank youSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent foodJeffuk1Dined on 27/12/2013I had heard a lot about this place .. So I thought we give it a try. It lived up to the expectation I must say. If you don't mind paying the price, the food was great and well presented. The ambiance was very relaxed and they managed to find us a quiet spot where we could talk and enjoy the evening. The staff was very tentative and polite. Expect to pay around 100 pounds meal for two. As I said if you don't mind the price, it's great place to eat. We will definitely be returning on another special occasion. Thank you :))Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- nice food, nice atmosphere but...UmarDined on 21/12/2013They need more professional and friendly staff. I could see them arguing amongst themselves. And one of the waitresses obviously had issues and she really made it us aware by her ome words answers amd stuck up attitude. She didnt smile once! I also got a stiff neck by having to turn around and grab attention from the waiters who where just walking paste clearly ignoring us. But maybe this was on odd occasion. Apart from that hats off to the cheff, the decor, atmosphere and thr belly dancer which was quite entertaining. I will surely recommend it unless you are looking for a 4 star quality service ..always!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Celebration meal was disappointingFabfoodloversDined on 14/12/2013Positives: charming waitress, always apologising for other aspects in the restaurant. Traditional slow cooked lamb was lovely ( presentation could be worked on!) The cocktails were great Negatives. : Management were surely and argued with a member of staff in front of us... very uncomfortable and unprofessional. One of our courses never turned up... We ensured we were not charged. We booked a restaurant table with Toptable, but instead we were put in the bar with the hustle and bustle of waiting customers and the DJ in the corner of a relatively small space! Not good! Will never return.
- Great atmosphere, great foodHappyAPDined on 12/12/2013We ate here for a friend's birthday meal in December. The staff were very polite and accommodating. The food was very tasty and not expensive. The best thing was the atmosphere and décor - created a really nice atmosphere!Special Features:
- Food was good. Portions forSfoodDined on 11/12/2013Food was good. Portions for the main were a decent size. Starter portions could have been a bit more generous. Service was very slow (but friendly) even though the restaurant was relatively empty. Not sure what kind of service we would have had if the place had been busy. Slightly overpriced, but with the special offer the price was very reasonable.Special Features:
- Soo Lush!! 10/10SaraDined on 7/12/2013The food was absolutely amazing!!! And I cannot wait to come back even the cocktails were to die for!!! Yum yum!! Can't say enough good things about it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- fantastic atmosphereDinerDined on 6/12/2013Lovely food, lively and excellent entertainment from belly dancer and restaurant was full of life. We were in a group of 4 girls and it was thoroughly enjoyed by all & we would 100% book again soon. Super service! Would recommend to everyone whether for a girls night out or a couple.Special Features:
- Moumina in NovemberMichaelGDined on 30/11/2013Sorry to say but this was not the experience it planned to be. The interior design is great but like most retaurnts in London space is very limited. The tables are in stamp-size compared to the ones in europe. the food was average and so was the service. when we entered the location we were not even greeted beacuse the 3 ladies were discussing reservations. then we got a seat where my wife (it was her birthday) had a nice seat but myself was placed on the hallway to the bathrooms. when i missed a warm starter platter i told them they might have forgotten ist but this was not their sense of humor. at 8 started a dj set which i did not realized wehn i booked the table and so it was even more noizy. sorry, no recommendationSpecial Features:

- Really beautiful restaurantBex03Dined on 21/10/2013We went in and sat down in the first room. I would have liked to sit upstairs where the tables were separated by the gold curtains but none the less the ambience was lovely. Service was quick. We went on a Monday night so the place was not busy at all. We ordered the pastries and sausage platter for starters. The sausages were so good and so were the pastries. We then ordered a meat dish for the main to share. There was a lot of meat we couldn't finish it all but the meat was dry tender. I also had French fries and buttered cous cous as a side. We also had Virgin cocktails which was lovely and some atay afterwards.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Guestbook comments from the owner
Had a lovely short break at Huckleberry Cottage. Arrived at The Black Horse Pub to pick the keys up and was welcomed by a freindly face. The cottage was well equipped with everything you can possible need for a comfortable stay. Log fire was very cosy at night and the property even has under floor heating. The beds were very large and comfortable and the linen was of a very high standard which is a must for me. Bathroom was very clean but could of done with some nice big bath sheets a towels were abit small. My daughter enjoyed exploring the fields around the cottage and we all felt very safe and secure duing our stay. Felt like you were in the middle of no-where but lots of local ammenities including The Stables bar, Beamish Hall, Italian restaraunt and shops just a short drive from the cotage. Would highly recommend this rental to friends and family and will hoping to stay again ourselves.
