Last fall all 8 hunters should have scored, but one
hunter passed on 8 bulls the first day including a 65-inch bull another
hunter later took and the other unsuccessful hunter also passed on a
64-inch bull. The other 6 hunters took bulls including a 67, 65, 64, 2
more over 60 and a 57-inch bull, despite terrible weather including
plenty of early snowfall.
Fall of 2012 produced 3 bulls for 3 hunters with
spreads of 69, 67 and 62 inches. The outfitter had a tag and a 4 hour
window between hunters and he tagged out on a 65-incher. Up until 2012
he only had one hunter in the past several years not go home with a big
bull and he was an older hunter that just was not able to physically do
the hunt.
In 2011, his hunters took 6 bulls up into the
mid-60's. In 2010 he had 4 hunters and the smallest bull went 62 inches
and everyone was tagged out by day 3. Best bull taken in 2009 was just
shy of 69 inches and in 2008 it was 68 inches.
This had always been one of the top moose areas in northwestern Alaska, but when the state made it a draw
area it just got better. He hunts 3 areas that have drawing odds ranging
from 20, 38 or over 60 percent and although the odds are high it chases
some hunters away. HCU has only ever had one hunter not draw this tag.
Grizzly in this area are also on a draw of 90%.
The season is from September 1 to 20, but early has
been better for calling and they are normally tagged out by September 8.
10-day hunts guided 1x1 are $15,000, moose/caribou combos are $17,000
and moose/grizzly is $19,500 and had also been 100% success.
Hunters fly from
Anchorage to
Kotzebue, where they charter to camp. Draw application deadline is
December 15 and results are out in February, so if you are unsuccessful
you have time to apply or purchase another hunt elsewhere.

This Northwest Territory
moose hunt is simply amazing for both success and trophy quality. 2013
proved to be another year with everyone scoring on big bulls, including
a couple monsters. The outfitter has 3 consecutive rut rifle hunts that
are top end.
In 2012 this outfitter took 17 rifle moose hunters all

I hate dieting. Let me say that again. I, Retrobetty, HATE dieting!
Now that I've put that out there, let me share my latest endeavor with you. About 8 weeks ago I saw a commercial for Medifast and decided to learn more about the program. I did research day in and day out. After about 4 weeks of obsessing over the plan, I decided to take the plunge and placed my first order. After all, it worked for other people, it could work for me.
My first box showed up and I began to go through the prepackaged meals. I swear, as I pulled each package out, my anxiety went up a notch. Am I supposed to survive on pre-packaged, just add water meals? Alas, I had committed to this. $387 of commitment to be exact. So I gave it a go. I wanted so badly to love Medifast. I wanted to believe in the program, to be skinny in 8 months as so many others had done, but I just couldn't swallow the food!
I am not a picky eater, but Medifast and I didn't mix. After about a week, I was tired, sick from all the soy, starving, and thinking, there has got to be a better way!
I told my husband that I wanted to return the Medifast food. He told me that he believed that I could lose the weight just by eating healthy and that he would support me. That was all I needed... good bye medifast... hello Sparkpeopel!
I will say the upside of medifast is my body is now detoxed of sugar and carbs so I feel more equipped to take on a healthy eating regime at home. I know Medifast is for some people, and more power to those people, but it's just not for me.
So, for hungry girls everywhere... I want to say I admire you and the hard work you are doing. Weight loss is no easy business. I want to find success just as much as the next girl, but we all know it takes time, failures, and the ability to get back up. I want to be skinny, and if you want to be skinny too, lets be friends, work hard, and support each other. Hungry Girls can be skinny too!

Even the loss of their scheduled starter couldn't derail the Los Angeles Angels against the Detroit Tigers.
Mike Trout homered and drove in three runs, and Erick Aybar's two-run shot gave Los Angeles the lead for good as the Angels beat Detroit 7-4 on Wednesday night for their eighth consecutive win over the Tigers.
The Angels have outscored the Tigers 55-21 during the streak.
''If we knew what we were doing differently (against Detroit), we'd probably try to do it against everybody else,'' catcher Mark Iannetta said.
The Angels (35-43) and desperately trying to remain within hailing distance of Texas and Oakland in the A.L. West.
Miguel Cabrera and former Angels outfielder Torii Hunter homered for Detroit.
Tigers manager Jim Leyland doesn't think the streak has anything to do with how the teams match up.
''I don't really believe in that,'' he said. ''It's another team that's a good team, and they've been swinging the bats very well lately. They're like everybody else. When they pitch good, they win games.''
Emergency Angels starter Billy Buckner gave up three runs and three hits in three- plus innings. He replaced Tommy Hanson, who was scratched after feeling tightness in his right forearm while warming up in the bullpen before the game.
''He's going to be evaluated and have some tests done (Thursday) and we'll see what's going on,'' Angels manager Mike Scioscia said of Hanson.
Buckner was pulled in favor of Dane De La Rosa after walking Jhonny Peralta and allowing Andy Dirks' infield single to lead off the fourth.
De La Rosa (2-1) got two quick outs before walking Austin Jackson to load the bases. But he fanned Hunter to end the inning with Detroit ahead 3-2. De La Rosa allowed a hit in two innings.
''Torii is especially tough with runners in scoring position. He's tough,'' Scioscia said. ''That's a big out right there.''
Scott Downs and Michael Kohn combined for two scoreless innings, and Kevin Jepsen gave up an unearned run on catcher Iannetta's passed ball in the eighth. Ernesto Frieri pitched a scoreless ninth for his 18th save in 20 chances.
''For our bullpen to respond the way they did . Buckner did what he could,'' Scioscia said. ''The bullpen came in and gave us six strong innings.''
Detroit starter Jose Alvarez (1-1) allowed four runs and seven hits in 5 2-3 innings. He left the game after giving up Aybar's two-run homer with two outs in the sixth that put Los Angeles ahead 4-3.
Just after pitching coach Jeff Jones went to the mound, Aybar lofted Alvarez's first pitch just over the fence in left for his third homer, scoring Iannetta, who had singled with two out.
The Tigers were trying to get one last out from Alvarez, who was made his third major league start, because of their struggling bullpen.
''If he just kept him in the ballpark, gets a base hit, we had (Drew) Smyly set for (Brendan) Harris as we did anyway. We asked a lot of him,'' Leyland said. ''He got the first two quick outs and then of course base hit and the home run. He did a terrific job. It wasn't his fault. He was a little spent, there's no question about that.''
Los Angeles added three in the seventh against Smyly on Trout's RBI double, Josh Hamilton's groundout and Alberto Callaspo's run-scoring single.
The Tigers took a 2-0 lead in the first on back-to-back homers by Hunter and Cabrera.
Hunter, who played for the Angels the previous five seasons before signing a two-year contract with Detroit, drove Buckner's 3-2 pitch into the left-center field stands for his fourth home run.
Cabrera then lined a 2-0 pitch over the fence in left for his 22nd home run and second in two days. He extended his hitting streak to 11 games.
Victor Martinez doubled with two outs but was stranded when Peralta sent Trout to the warning track in left-center to haul in his drive.
Trout tied it with a two-run homer in the third. After J.B. Shuck led off with a double, Trout sent Alvarez's 2-1 pitch over the fence in left for his 13th homer.
Prince Fielder's run-scoring single gave Detroit a 3-2 lead in the third. His liner to right brought home Hunter, who led off with a double.
NOTES: Shuck, the Angels left fielder, ran into shortstop Aybar, and both players fell as Aybar caught Dirks' pop up in short left for the first out of the second. Aybar held onto the ball but lost one of his shoes. Neither player was injured. ... Leyland said RHP Anibal Sanchez, who is on the DL with a right shoulder strain, is ''coming along fine,'' but couldn't say when Sanchez will start again. Alvarez started in Sanchez's slot. ... Los Angeles 2B Howie Kendrick didn't play because he fouled a ball off his foot on Tuesday. ... Scioscia said he hoped CF Peter Bourjos will return to the lineup on Thursday. Bourjos has missed two games after leaving Sunday's game because of a jammed left thumb. ... Thursday's scheduled starters are Jered Weaver (1-4, 4.65 ERA) for the Angels against Doug Fister (6-5, 3.66). ... Cabrera made his third error in two games at third base. His line drive in the seventh went off the buttock of Angels pitcher Michael Kohn. ''It hit me on the meaty part,'' said Kohn, who picked up the ball and threw Cabrera out at first. ''I'm glad it hit me there.''

Startup trends for 2013
As i'm looking to launch a startup myself in 2013 it's always interesting to look into areas which have grown and have massive potential for growth this year. The growth in the market for apps is huge and one that is only going in one direction and that is up, increased competition in the mobile and tablet market from products such as the Kindle HD, Nexus 7, Samsung Galaxy S3 and other products have meant that access to technology, apps and mobile is an area which is more than likely to see the biggest trend in 2013.
The main areas that seem to have a lot of potential with big venture capital companies investing in are:
1. Content-led sites/apps
'Content is King' is a well known phrase for webmasters where they wish to create great content in order to rank well via Google but there has been an increase in sites that don't really on search engines for traffic, sites such as BuzzFeed and Pinterest have seen massive growth in traffic, users and revenue and this is surely an area with more potential for startups to exploit.
Many companies are now seeking to promote and market products via sponsoring content on these types of sites as an alternative to traditional online marketing.
2. Instant Service Delivery
If you want to buy something now you'll often search for the item, find some prices and maybe look at some daily deals
There is a huge potential for startups entering the instant service market including companies which are set to boom in markets such as instant taxi ordering apps including Ubercab and Halo. sites to see if there are any offers on it. Now this is fine method but the future see's potential customers being given deals and offers on demand via instant service apps. Imagine walking into a shop and getting a message with a discount code exclusive to you as the shop knows you're a loyal customer?
3. The Cloud
The 'Cloud' is another growing market with hundreds of startups all trying to get a piece of the pie, from companies which are well established such as Dropbox to Apple's iCloud offering meaning you can store data in the cloud and retrieve it whenever you wish the market has plenty of opportunities in it.
4. Payments
The idea of sending payments easily and quickly from one person to their friend isn't particularly a new idea but it's one that is getting big traction this year, companies such as Square are already disrupting the marketplace offering anyone the ability to accept credit or debit card payments with a simple free iPhone plugin device. It'll be interesting to see how a marketplace dominated by several big companies will diversify and respond to payment startups this year.
With many phones having NFC (wiki) inbuilt in them allowing you to touch other phones to transfer data or to pay for things in certain shops there is a big market that is ready to explode.
5. Sync'ing with others
Now most people are used to syncing up tech they already own be it simply synching your itunes to your iPod or maybe synching your emails so they work across your laptop, tablet, phone and work computer however very few people currently use services that offer synchronisation with other people, this area has huge potential to sync things you do on your phone to specific groups of friends, syncing personal and private matters with a close group of family there are various uses that this kind of technology and process can be useful to. Some companies such as Path are already into this area but 2013 will bring a new wave of startups to the market.
These are just 5 of the predictions which I currently have read and have in my head, needless to say there are hundreds more areas which are bound to see massive growth this year however these are a few that excite me from a personal as well as business level. Bring on 2013 I say.

"One of the sayings in our country is Ubuntu – the essence of being human. Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can't exist as a human being in isolation. It speaks about our interconnectedness. You can't be human all by yourself, and when you have this quality – Ubuntu – you are known for your generosity. We think of ourselves far too frequently as just individuals, separated from one another, whereas you are connected and what you do affects the whole world. When you do well, it spreads out; it is for the whole of humanity."
- Desmond Tutu, archbishop emeritus of Anglican Church of Southern Africa
LIVINGSTONE, Zambia – Vasco's voice wrested me from awe-filled reverie as I stood on the lip of a gorge high above the Zambezi River, gazing into the massive, thundering maw of Victoria Falls.
"God's creation is amazing!" my son shouted over the roar of the enormous waterfall – the largest on Earth.
Perhaps the Scottish missionary David Livingstone uttered something similarly wonder-struck on Nov. 16, 1855, when he first laid eyes on the waterfall the natives called Mosi-oa-Tunya ("the smoke that thunders").
My 13-year-old has seen a lot for someone so young – too much, most people would say. A native of Malawi, Vasco has seen the very worst that Africa (and the world, for that matter) has to offer.
Stultifying poverty. Hunger, disease, despair, cruelty, corruption, violence and more death than anyone should experience in a lifetime, never mind a childhood.
And yet those harsh truths – unimaginable to most American minds – have not blinded my son to startling beauty, whether it's in a sunrise walk with a family of giraffes or in the smile of an orphan who's just been handed a soccer ball.
Our journey to Africa last month with friends from the ONE Campaign brought us to Zambia for the first time and back to its neighbor, Malawi, for the first time since our adoption hearing in June 2010.
What we saw this time was an Africa that, despite ongoing challenges (some of them quite staggering), is rising – buoyed by its own strength, a hand from global neighbors and God's grace.
Every time Vasco says grace before a meal he prays for his brother and other relatives in Malawi – that they are healthy, safe and have enough to eat.
When we visited his extended family in Blantyre last month, Vasco saw for himself how his prayers had been answered – anecdotal evidence of the wind of change in the air in Malawi, Zambia and beyond.
But there still is much to be done and a steep slope to ascend toward lasting health and stability.
A report issued Thursday by British medical journal The Lancet showed that malnutrition remains an even greater threat to children worldwide than previously understood.
More than 3.1 million children under age 5 – 600,000-plus morethan we previously realized – die each year from malnutrition-related causes, Accounting for more than 45 percent of all deaths of children that age.
Additionally, according to Lancet, 165 million kids grow up stunted as a result of malnutrition in early childhood.
That's horrendous news. But it's not the end of the story. We can do more than pray for hungry, vulnerable children.

Old Media Monday: Reviewing the Reviewers
New York Times:
- Aimee Bender on Room by Emma Donoghue: "Donoghue navigates beautifully around these limitations. Jack's voice is one of the pure triumphs of the novel: in him, she has invented a child narrator who is one of the most engaging in years — his voice so pervasive I could hear him chatting away during the day when I wasn't reading the book. Donoghue rearranges language to evoke the sweetness of a child's learning without making him coy or overly darling; Jack is lovable simply because he is lovable."
- Julie Myerson on Sourland: Stories by Joyce Carol Oates: "Oates has written about the grief and shock of her first husband's death in 2008, so it's not surprising that loss and bereavement are dominant among the collection's themes. But don't expect a widow's resignation. Don't expect timidity. This book is angry and tough and deeply, viscerally unsettling, not least because Oates seems determined to explore the idea that the bereaved wife is a kind of guilty party, a victim who in some way deserves everything (and it's usually a violent 'everything') that comes her way."
- Holly Morris on The Wave by Susan Casey: "The relationship Casey builds between investigating big waves nautically and scientifically — and riding them — feels at times like a marriage of convenience: not entirely sympatico, but by and large the partners hold their own. Casey is fluent in 'gnarly' and proficient in 'wonk,' and she writes lucidly so the rest of us can come along for the ride."
- Steven Strogatz on Proofiness by Charles Seife: "Seife, a veteran science writer who teaches journalism at New York University, examines the many ways that people fudge with numbers, sometimes just to sell more moisturizer but also to ruin our economy, rig our elections, convict the innocent and undercount the needy. Many of his stories would be darkly funny if they weren't so infuriating."
Washington Post:
- Connie Schultz on Big Girls Don't Cry by Rebecca Traister: "By the middle of Chapter 2, Traister's book felt increasingly like the minutes of the Mean Girls Club -- and a waste of this 53-year-old woman's time. But with age comes patience. Good thing, too. I ended up admiring Traister and loving her book. In its best parts, it is a raw and brave memoir of a journalist who discovered that all is not well for women in America, and a description of how she and other young women are laying claim to their rightful place in the fight."
- Eugene Rogan on The Balfour Declaration by Jonathan Schneer: "British historian Jonathan Schneer has produced a remarkable book on this complex and divisive subject. His 'Balfour Declaration' is engagingly written, adding to our knowledge of this frequently told story without ever taking sides."
- Charles Kaiser on American Dreams by H.W. Brands: "Brands does a passable job of summarizing the facts behind major political events, but when it comes to social and cultural change, he never has anything interesting to say. The author avoids controversy so assiduously that his book sometimes reads as if its main purpose were to win acceptance by the Texas Board of Education, which decides what facts are appropriate for high school history books."
Los Angeles Times:
- Wendy Smith on Yellow Dirt by Judy Pasternak: "Studded with vivid character sketches and evocative descriptions of the American landscape, journalist Judy Pasternak's scarifying account of uranium mining's disastrous consequences often reads like a novel — though you will wish that the bad guys got punished as effectively as they do in commercial fiction."
- David L. Ulin on Zero History by William Gibson: "In the end, this leaves 'Zero History' oddly unfulfilling, like a facsimile or a knockoff in which the material that once felt so fresh has come to be a little worn. Gibson may have had to improvise a new kind of science-fiction novel in the wake of 9/11, but the cultural implosion that the tragedy set in motion is now the substance of daily life."
The Globe and Mail:
- Lynn Coady on The Death of Donna Whalen by Michael Winter (amazon.ca only): "The adjective I would have chosen previously to describe Winter's style is 'expansive.' Here, however, he has produced a novel that feels in some ways like moving through a tunnel – narrow, focused, deliberate while at the same time gloomy in the literal and figurative senses of the word. The deeper you go into 'The Death of Donna Whalen,' as one character's divergent, often self-contradictory perspective is layered on top of another's, the more obscured your vision becomes."
- Matt Kavanagh on Zero History: "A standout thriller and vital introduction to Gibson's trademark style, 'Zero History' also bears the burden of a final volume in a trilogy: tying up loose ends and bringing the overall narrative to satisfying close."
The Guardian:
- Blake Morrison on Freedom by Jonathan Franzen: "All the characters in 'Freedom' have periods – long periods – of being on their own, and try to embrace the isolation... But people need their chains – of work, marriage, family. The subtext of 'Freedom' is something Franzen himself learned while blocked and depressed in the 1990s – that anyone suffering from 'an overwhelming estrangement from humanity' needs to get out more. Other people might be hell, but loneliness is worse."
- Jacqueline Rose on To the End of the Land by David Grossman: "'To the End of the Land' is without question one of the most powerful and moving novels I have read. But we do the novel, and Grossman, no favours if we turn it into a sacred object, beyond critical scrutiny and outside the reach of the history to which it so complexly and sometimes disturbingly relates."

"Won't you please talk to meIf you'd just talk to meUnblock this miseryIf you'd only talk to me"Peter Gabriel - Come Talk to Me
Sometimes I don't feel like talking. Sometimes I simply prefer to be left alone. I guess that's the only child in me coming out. But you see, there is an inevitable price to be paid for not communicating.In a recent conversation with a client, he shared that he had not disclosed a particular issue with my agency's p-doc. At first I was flabbergasted. "How could you not mention that?!!" I thought to myself. The client later admitted that he should have brought up the concern and I affirmed that he should have said something.In many ways I can relate to my client. There were certainly times in my early recovery when I did not fully share what was going on inside my head. This could have been due the fear of seeming weak or vulnerable or that I would risk being hospitalized. Whatever the reason, I was not doing myself any favors.When it comes to sharing how I feel with the significant others in my life I have learned that I need to be open about how I'm doing no matter how difficult that may be at times. After all, as we know, mental illness can be invisible in nature and others may not always be able to tell how we are doing just by looking at us.I firmly believe that we all need and deserve to be listened to. Often, just the simple act of venting has a cathartic affect that can help one to release the emotional pressure s/he may be experiencing.Have you really talked to anyone today?

I've been managing bipolar disorder successfully for over 10 years. By successfully, I mean that I work on my health every day and learn from my mistakes. Lots of mistakes. Outside of medications, I think that carefully choosing the people in your life is the #1 way to manage bipolar disorder.Good relationships keep you healthy, bad relationships can put you in the hospital and even kill you. If I said this to a member of the general public- they would say, "Oh Julie! That's pretty melodramatic!" But we know it's not melodramatic. And the people who love us certainly know what bad relationships can do to us.I used to have bad relationships in my life. Some people literally made me sick on a regular basis. When I look back, I'm astonished I let these people stay in my life. One even told me that I was the problem. Interesting. When we no longer saw each other, my 'problem' magically disappeared. That is because he disappeared! Good relationships are hard work, but always worth it. Relationships where the other person is unreasonable and hurts you either mentally or physically are not acceptable. Our bipolar brains are so sensitive! We have to make relationship choices that protect our brains. You can't change who people are- even if you tell them you love them and that their behavior is hurting you- it's their choice how they treat you. But you can decide for the sake of your health which relationships have to end. Julie

Having spent time as a patient in four separate psychiatric facilities and as a participant in many a support group, I've found that people living with mental illnesses have a special affinity for nicotine. I've never been partial to cigarettes myself and thus have never joined my fellow patients or support group attendees on their smoke breaks. I must admit though, even with my strong aversion to cigarette smoke, I've been tempted to join in from time to time. My temptation has nothing to do with the cigarettes themselves and everything to do with the sense of community they seem to create. That said, I think it's about time for us (as both consumers and healthcare providers) to start encouraging healthier ways to create a sense of community and cope with stress.
Smoking among the mentally ill is a huge problem. Researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health have found that those of us with mental illnesses smoke twice as much as other Americans. Unsurprisingly, we also have higher rates of lung cancer and heart disease, making smoking a major cause of premature death among people living with mental illness. I don't know what it's like to try to quit, but I do know it's not easy. That's why I think it's worth talking to your doctors and taking advantage of whatever resources regarding smoking cessation are available to you. And there are a lot! The CDC and the American Heart Association list some great resources on their websites, and your doctor can recommend other resources as well. For all you smokers out there, it's never too late to quit and start improving your mental and physical health. And what better day to start than today?

Two days later, I am still reeling a bit from the fact that our Thanksgiving this year was, well, just bad. The whole week was, really, culminating in a poor meal, poor moods, poor feelings.
Not that I expect Norman Rockwell every year. I think most people are realistic in knowing that Thanksgiving (and the holidays) fantasies of perfect get-togethers, sumptuous food, laughter, bonding or romance, mostly are just that—fantasies. I have had a few Thanksgivings in the past that were idyllic, so precedents have been set. Clearly, those special days happen rarely and are therefore cherished in memory.
This year, it was just my husband and me. Well, and the dogs of course. In all honesty, we just couldn't get our act together. We have a bunch of things going on in our lives now, separately and collectively, and our minds are jumbled and jello-ed.
Issues build. Like the fact that somehow over the 19 years we've been together my husband never really caught on to the fact that I don't care much for turkey. I suppose I oughta've told him directly at some point; I guess I just figured he knew since we've been making everything but turkey for years and/or I don't eat it when visiting other's homes.
Funny in hindsight—not so funny at the grocery store on Wednesday night before Thanksgiving when buying the menu for the next day.
And triggers begin to slowly bubble. Not marriage ones, but triggers about myself, about other turkey-days gone bad, about failure, about not being thankful enough about what is good, about what we do have…
So that by the time cooking ends, the tears start.
Since then, yes, I have felt depressed. But I am realizing that Thanksgiving is just a day. A day for collective recognition of gratefulness, but again, simply a day.
Expectations that it be wonderful can cause great pressure, triggering all kinds of bipolar symptoms, causing feelings of guilt, worthlessness and sadness.
Two days later, though, I am thankful for being able to see that it's OK to have a bad Thanksgiving, and to forgive myself for it, get past the triggers, and look again at what I am thankful for—like the favorite things I wrote about last week, for example.
Have you ever had a bad Thanksgiving, and how did you cope with it?

Published by Karl Shallowhorn at 12:01 AM under Children with Bipolar
This week I had the opportunity to speak to a group of high school students at a local outpatient alternative school program. These teens all live with a variety of mental and emotional disorders. I've been doing this for the last four years. It never fails but I always walk away deeply affected.
I was able to share a bit of my story and try to inject just a little bit of hope into their lives. These are the kids that are often bullied, abused and cast aside. For them, adolescence is more than just an awkward stage.
Four million children and adolescents in this country suffer from a serious mental disorder that causes significant functional impairments at home, at school and with peers. Of children ages 9 to 17, 21 percent have a diagnosable mental or addictive disorder that causes at least minimal impairment. .Half of all lifetime cases of mental disorders begin by age 14In any given year, only 20 percent of children with mental disorders are identified and receive mental health services. (NAMI, 2012).
We are in the midst of a significant crisis when it comes to mental health services for our youth. It is as critical as any physical health issue that our kids deal with. These issues have far reaching consequences. There are a variety of things to consider but basically I believe that those of us who have lived through the experience of mental illness have much to teach our young.
You may know a child living with mental illness. She could be your own. Our children need to know they are loved. The smallest gesture can help. Even just taking the time to listen can make a big difference. A child is waiting.

What's Your Deal, Partner?
"Social Exchange" is a new column focused on the evolving roles of social media in online advertising.
Today's column is written by Andrew Pancer, Chief Operating Officer of Media6Degrees.
As we head into 2010, privacy and brand safety will continue to remain at the forefront of marketer and consumer concerns. With these issues in mind, our industry made excellent strides last year. For example, Google and Yahoo rolled out preference management solutions. NAI and IAB ran consumer education campaigns serving hundreds of millions of impressions to the general Internet audience. Adsafe and Double Verify emerged to assist marketers and hold publishers and networks to a higher level of accountability. The list goes on.
Social targeting companies have also gained momentum in 2009, as marketers are seeing the tremendous ROI they can deliver. As the newest players on the block, social targeting companies have an opportunity and an obligation to establish best practices and set the standard for respecting consumer privacy while delivering strong results for marketers.
Because social targeting solutions are relatively new, there are still a number of important questions that marketers need to ask to understand the data used to target display ads. Here are a few of those questions:
1. Where is the data collected?
Marketers should understand where a social targeting company gets the social graph data it uses to target ads and get assurance that obtaining that data does not infringe on consumer privacy. Individual vendors may not be able to reach the desired audience for every brand. If the original audience base doesn't match an advertiser's needs, even the best social targeting solutions will not be very effective. I speak in greater detail about consumer privacy in the next section.
If the data is purchased through data exchanges or other third-party data providers, marketers should know if the data sets are unique or a commodity. They should also ask how the data would help meet their specific needs. If a social targeting company does not provide a custom audience, marketers shouldn't pay a premium price.
2. What data is collected, and is the social targeting vendor committed to consumer privacy?
Marketers need to know what information is used to target their campaigns. Not all data is equally valuable. Targeting based on a person's interests or friends doesn't mean these attributes will perform, and to be sure that a social targeting company's technology will add value to a media buy, marketers should ask for case studies and supporting research that justifies a vendor's data and targeting capabilities will be successful for their brand. This will also help reassure them that ads aren't targeted using questionable data. The use of PII and merged offline data are controversial tactics and marketers should inquire if a company is using PII and has consumer privacy in mind.
They should also know whether a social targeting company is a member of NAI or Trustee. If the company is not a member of these organizations, they should find out why. Any company a marketer works with should post explicit ways for a consumer to opt out on their services. This option should be available on the company's website as well as on sites they partner with to collect data.
3. How will that data be used?
Marketers should strive to understand what algorithms and technology are used to deliver their message. If they don't understand how the technology works, they should ask questions until it is very clear how the data collected is used to target ads. Otherwise, they risk paying a premium for a commodity service that over promises and under delivers.
4. Where will the ads run?
Marketers should make sure that the social targeting vendor understands their needs and can build an audience that fits their objectives. Will the ads run only on social sites or across the web? If certain sites or categories are unacceptable, they should communicate this to the vendor before executing a campaign.
Another thing to consider is the quality of inventory being purchased. Some vendors highlight their ability to deliver results at a fraction of the normal media cost, but this is neither smart business nor good for the long-term health of the industry. If a vendor's technology platform is strong, the company should be able to perform for the marketer, while ALSO paying a premium rate to get the best inventory available through the exchanges or their publisher network. If a vendor is highlighting a huge ROI lift due to a mix of performance and cost efficiency, this may suggest that their technology is not as strong as it could be and the advertisements may be running on low-value inventory.
Social targeting is a revolutionary development for marketers. Its promise is incredible, and it will be an important part of the marketing mix in this coming decade. Let's start off on the right foot by developing solutions that deliver results for our marketing partners, yield improvements for our publisher partners and show respect for the consumers we are trying to reach.

Good article, but self serving or not? M6D offers very little on your site about how you live up to these standards. Care to comment on how much exchange inventory you use, and how and where you collect data, etc.
Thank you for the comment. Media6Degrees actively works to live up to these standards. Here are a few ways we do that:
For starters, Media6Degrees observes the connectivity between browsers. We don't know anything about the individual or their connections. We don't know or collect information regarding gender, age, location, interest or friends. The company only observes key data attributes, including recency, frequency, reciprocity and proximity between browsers to target based on the inferred preferences of individuals who are connected online.
Media6Degrees has developed custom data partnerships with numerous social media companies—ranging from social networks to blogs to photo sharing sites. If you use Ghostery or Firebug, you'll see our pixel instrumented on our partner sites. We are compliant with the terms of service of our partners and their privacy policies and collect almost 100% of our data through direct relationships with social media companies. While we have experimented with data purchased through data exchanges, we do not regularly use them. We don't work with any offline data providers.
Media6Degrees is a member of the NAI. We were audited in the fall and passed without any issues. We offer an opt-out option on every page of our website, as well as the NAI opt-out page. We require all partners to post a link to the NAI opt-out page in their privacy policy and also were launch members of the NAI-Firefox plug-in.
100 percent of our advertising is purchased through ad exchanges. This allows us to only buy the impressions we want. We partner directly with publishers and networks to purchase their inventory through the exchanges. This allows for an easy implementation of our solution and allows us to pay a premium for the impressions we purchase.
Hope this helps,

If you did contract work over the past year, chances are your physical mailbox and your email box is currently blowing up with 1099-MISC forms. (Or, if you're an online seller, 1099-K forms.) So what do you do with these little pieces of paper?
Check Form 1099-MISC Over Carefully
You kept track of all of your income over the past year, right? Now's the time to make sure your totals match the total found on Line 7 – "Nonemployee Compensation" on the 1099-MISC. Remember, these forms are prepared by humans, and there could be a mistake. These numbers are being reported to the IRS as your income, so if they are wrong, it could have negative tax consequences for you. If you find that your income totals do not mesh with the total reported on your 1099-K, contact the company who issued your 1099-MISC immediately.
File Your Schedule C
ALL income needs to be reported to the IRS. If this is your first year in business for yourself, you may be unsure how to do this. Self-employed income is reported along with your regular 1040 tax return. It's reported on a separate sheet called the Schedule C. For more on Schedule C and how to file taxes as a self-employed person, follow our handy checklist to get started on your self-employment taxes.
File 1099′s Away
Keep your 1099′s handy for now. If there's any problem with your returns, you will want to have them on hand. A good rule of thumb is to keep 1099′s and other supporting tax documentation around for about 3 years, until the statute of limitations runs out on filing returns of filing for a refund.
Did you receive a 1099-K? Learn more about this young tax form at our Outright's 1099-K Tax Center

Despite Record Sales, Tablets and Smartphones Won't Replace PCs Any Time Soon
Although iOS and Android enjoyed record device activations on Christmas day, tablets and smartphones running on these mobile operating systems aren't likely to replace personal computers any time soon. That's not to say tablets and smartphones won't change the PC landscape, however.
According to Forrester Research analyst Frank Gillett, tablets will not kill PCs but, "tablets will force them to evolve." We've already seen some evidence of this evolution with Microsoft's launch of Windows 8. This OS is built with touch controls in mind and also has a similar look and feel as other Microsoft-branded mobile devices such as Xbox or a Windows Phone.
The idea of carrying only a smartphone or tablet on a business trip sounds great to many people. However, most people who have tried this eventually go back to a laptop if they want to do "real work." After all, laptops often offer a larger screen, more processing power, and a more comfortable keyboard than tablets and smartphones.
Although PCs won't be replaced by tablets or smartphones any time soon, PC manufacturers are still likely to struggle during the evolutionary process. With all of the hype surrounding tablets and smartphones, PC sales haven't been as great as some manufacturers had hoped. The state of the economy hasn't helped either, since many companies have put off large PC purchases. As things pick up again, many people expect PC sales to improve. In the meantime, companies such as Lenovo and Samsung that sell devices in multiple market categories—tablets, smartphones, and laptops—have a competitive advantage.
Image Credit: Dell
Agree with previous commentators ; to paraphrase Mark Twain, rumours of the death of the PC have been greatly exaggerated. Admittedly, one can do serious work with a tablet, so long as it has a docking station and a keyboard, but what is it then but a somewhat less convenient laptop/notebook ? At the same time, the observation that the success of tablets and smartphones will force PCs to change seems both correct and encouraging - the first change I'd like to see is not «touchscreens», which for ergonomic reasons I suspect are a dead end on laptops and stationary devices, but rather affordable screens and monitors that approach the resolutions in ppi that we are now seeing in smartphones and tablets. Can't wait !...
This is funny and my six year old is the one who shows it the best, She will play around with the smart phones, she will use my laptop and has no problem with it, she uses the Kindles, but the only time she messes with any of them is when the desktop is not available which tells me everything I need to know especially considering me and Sarah prefer the desktops to for anything more than checking on things or simple task's. So in the end the desktop's are the preferred device across the board!
Tablets have had the biggest market growth in the history of consumer electronics. This is sensational, and saying that they are replacing PCs is not irational, but it might take years for that to happen. Honestly, tablets are great for content consumption, but doing "real work" is not possible, not yet. Just as an example, what is a programmer supposed to do on a tablet? They are great stuff, but not as a complete replacement of PCs and laptops.

"Massachusetts is the birthplace of public education and our students lead the nation," said Governor Patrick. "So it is fitting that a state that has always been at the forefront of education now bestows upon these six institutions the well-earned right to be called universities."
"Between the hard work of our educators and students, and our commitment to educational excellence at all levels, Massachusetts leads the nation in academic performance," said Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray. "This legislation recognizes these achievements and rightly elevates our public higher education system."
Proponents of the change have long argued that the added prestige of the university name will help students compete in the job market. Additionally, they predict that the renaming effort will attract non-state funding, such as foundation grants, and create new opportunities for alumni and corporate giving.
"Students in Massachusetts public higher education have access to high quality instruction across a network of 29 campuses," said Education Secretary Paul Reville. "The newly names state universities play a critical role in educating our students and as part of our system of excellence."
"This is a great leap forward," said Charles F. Desmond, Chairman of the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education. "It is also a wonderful day for all twenty-nine of our public campuses because the elevation of one segment of our institutions of higher learning reflects the value and excellence of teaching and learning taking place across our system. Massachusetts' public colleges and universities are on the move."
"As I see it, this important action aligns Massachusetts with the practice found in some 45 other states, where four-year and masters' institutions were long ago renamed universities," said Richard M. Freeland, Commissioner of the Massachusetts Department of Higher Education. "This action affirms the growing importance of our public campuses at a time of record growth in enrollment. I am delighted by this strong show of legislative support for the achievements of our faculty and students."
The six state universities are Bridgewater State University, Fitchburg State University, Framingham State University, Salem State University, Westfield State University and Worcester State University. The universities are part of a higher education system that also includes three specialized state colleges - Massachusetts College of Art and Design, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, and Massachusetts Maritime Academy - which serve unique missions and will retain their existing names. Additionally, the public college and university system includes the five campuses of the University of Massachusetts and fifteen community colleges.
"I have long supported Salem State College becoming a University. This name change will expand opportunities to students, and bolster regional economies across the Commonwealth. I applaud all the state college presidents, their alumni and staff for their advocacy on behalf of this positive change. Salem State is well positioned for this move and I am proud to have been part of such a team effort," said Senate Majority Leader Fred Berry.
"This law will allow our state colleges to compete more aggressively with their counterparts across the country; it will keep more of our students here in Massachusetts to take advantage of our world class state university system; and it will increase our state's population, generating additional revenue for the Commonwealth. Time and again we ask our leaders in the public sector to 'think creatively' about how to generate dollars for their institutions, especially given our budget constraints. This is an example of one simple word change that will go a long way towards doing just that," said Representative Peter Koutoujian.
"As a member of the Joint Committee on Higher Education, I recognize the importance that signing this bill into law will have for the Commonwealth's future graduates and educators. By allowing our state colleges to adopt this status, we are opening doors by leveling the field at the institutional level to enhance regional educational opportunity for students, to improve grant eligibility and faculty recruitment and to encourage competitive programming with an eye towards national prominence," said Representative Jennifer Callahan.
"This is a historic day for our colleges," said Frederick Clark, Executive Officer of the Council of Presidents of the Massachusetts State Colleges. "As comprehensive institutions offering undergraduate and graduate degrees in a wide range of disciplines, the State Colleges all meet nationally recognized criteria of being universities. Now the state has recognized us for what we are. We cannot thank Governor Patrick and our supporters in the State Legislature enough."
"Students of the state university system will significantly benefit from this legislation since it levels the playing field with our peers from across the country when we enter the job market, and more accurately reflects who we really are as institutions: teaching universities," said Eric Gregoire, President of the Student Government Association at Fitchburg State College. "On behalf of the students of the state university system, I would like to thank the presidents, the Legislature, the Governor and his Administration for their leadership on this legislation and their continued support of public higher education."

*Gunshot* (Flanders is knocked down)Oh no! Our Hero is being shot at! Look, a bullet is heading right for his heart... but what's this? He has something in his pocket? It's stopped the bullet! He is saved! He's got a Bible in there? It'll stop the bullet. Ditto for cellphones, and especially lockets; if it contains photographs of beloved ones, expect a large modifier (positive or negative, depending upon the scene) to the attack. While it may have worked in the days when guns were extremely underpowered, these days the life-saved-by-sentimental-object trope is discredited; it's rare to find a 21st century example that plays it straight. It's important to note that most real-world examples involve ricochets, spent bullets, shrapnel or other low-velocity projectiles. It's a very lucky break when the round is moving slow enough to be stopped by anything so small and thin as what you can fit in a pocket. One commonly-used justification is that it's an attempted assassination; suppressors are much more effective on subsonic rounds - the kind of bullets that can be considered silent can thus be rendered nonlethal by many everyday objects. See Bulletproof Vest for things that are supposed to stop bullets.note Compare Concealment Equals Cover, where the hero is protected by something that isn't in their pocket. If bullets are stopped by an unwilling Mook or bystander, that's a Bulletproof Human Shield. For other uses for books, see Useful Book. For intentional versions with (usually) larger objects, see Improvised Armour. Not to be confused with the pocket protectors stereotypically worn by Nerds
