Advertising For Mobile On The Rise [Infographic]

Startapp is a platform bound to help app developers monetize their apps without the need for embedding banners or other more or less crude forms of refinancing means. Instead the service promises to monetize search traffic. Rings familiar to your ears? Well, the strategy resembles that of a quite popular search engine located in Mountain View. No matter if you have doubts as to how much sense this strategy might make or if you think this business model sounds promising, the infographic, we have for you today, is interesting no matter what. Entitled "Advertiser's Guide To Mobile" they accumulated several studies to an easily consumable graphical overview.
Mobile Advertising Is Already Strong These Days
The magic word in relation to mobile advertising is "local". Mobile advertising proves most successful when connected to a local context. Almost 50% of all mobile searches are local, while only 20% of all desktop searches have the local context. Two third of mobile users take notice of mobile ads, one-third clicks on them. Compare that to other forms of online advertising…
The massively growing fraction of mobile web users will overtake the fraction of desktop web users in a mere few years. Facebook proves as a living example for the shift in importance. In 2011 mobile ad revenue was zero, in 2012 already around 340 million USD. Given the rise does not slow down, 2013 will see almost triple that amount.
I was not surprised to hear that restaurants are a popular subject of mobile searches. It is not surprising that 64% of all searchers convert to customers within one hour of searching, 84% during the course of the same day. Already today between 30 and 50% of all restaurant searches are mobile.
Travel-related searches are the next top topic in mobile use cases. This is primarily focussed on hotel searches. What do you use while on the road? Not your desktop computer, that's for sure. So you are bound to use your smartphone whenever you need web access. Bookings from smartphones are usually made for the same day. Additional offers through targeted advertising prove successful in that environment. Only 8% of all travel-related services offer a mobile-friendly website though. Bumber…
I admit, I was really surprised to have to take note of the fact that almost a third of all searches for automobiles are initiated from mobile devices. An astonishing 51% of all searches results in sales. The industry could do so much more, as only 6% of all automobile-related websites is mobile-friendly.
Mobile Advertising Should Not Be Neglected
If you are into selling products or services via the web you should not be hiding from the mobile revolution. So how soon should you be jumping ship to stay ahead of future developments? This depends on individual criteria and is not subject to a general recommendation. You will not make a mistake though, if you collect experiences early. That way you can slowly shift over into the new era of advertising. In any case a mobile-friendly website should be a priority…

A very helpful infographic. But a lot of website don't support mobile yet.
- David Deering, 31 December 2012
Nice points on mobile ads, Dieter. Unfortunately, too many websites are not yet mobile-friendly, even when some companies are using mobile ads. So especially in today's world, every business needs to make sure that their website is mobile-friendly, either through use of responsive design or a separate mobile website, then make their ads relevant to mobile users.

"I prepared this in the way that PardenMe247 had, and really enjoyed it. I tend to prefer chicken (regardless of sauces/added seasonings) to be in bite-sized pieces, as opposed to one big chunk. It was wonderful, straight out of the pan--however, with the main components from this recipe. Thank you for posting, Parsley!"
"Tasty, but perhaps a little seasoning added to the flour (or directly after taken from the pan) will add to the flavor. Otherwise, in the future i will use panko instead of plain flour. Thanks, graciethebaker."
"Loved the flavor, and the crunchy offerings of the cashews! After taking the cashews out of the pan, I let them rest on some paper towel on a plate--then sprinkled them with a little bit of salt. I will definitely make this again. Like another reviewer, I was looking for a new way to use my baby bok choy from my organic produce delivery. We're ..."
"Tasty! I had about 8 oz of cremini mushrooms, but I'm afraid they were too small. I used them, but had to run out and get extra mushrooms. To top that off, we ended up with excess in terms of the butter mixture--no need to worry, as I can use that tomorrow on baked potatoes! Thanks for posting, Cynna!"
"Fantastically easy to prepare! Baked potatoes in minutes--perfect for lunch, or to go along with dinner when you've come home and can't be bothered to wait for an hour. I've topped these with tomatoes and green onions, along with the other ingredients. Lovely! Thanks, Kittencal!"
"Easy to prepare, but you definitely need a pan that can be covered! otherwise, the rice doesn't turn out as nicely. Next time, we'll probably add a little bit of tofu to the mix--and maybe some more heat!"
"Very good, and simple to prepare. Once everything is grated, you just mix and dump :) I think that personally I would have preferred a crust, but it didn't necessarily need one. Would be great for brunch, when you want something a little lighter (and possibly crustless). The flavor was well-rounded--I didn't go above and beyond with any other s..."
"Very much the "Tongan" version of pineapple pie :) The meringue keeps the pineapple filling moist...you can add a bit more butter to the filling (as I did), and also a couple of dashes of vanilla. I prefer this crust, but some like it with an angel food cake-type base. Thank you for posting this lovely recipe, Missy Wombat!"

......Villa Dream In Blue - Happy Bay. Vacation Villa Rental in St. Martin
Dream in Blue is The View :
This exceptional, luxurious villa, offers the most beautiful views on the island of Saint Martin.
From all sides, the eye sees nothing but the sea:
Varying shades of blue, turquoise, morning ultra marines, glowing red sunsets - every hour of the day has its own palette of colors!
The villa 'Dream in Blue' overlooks the tranquil beach of Happy Bay on one side, the developed shoreline of Friar's Bay, with its famous beach restaurants, on the other, and the bay of Grand Case in the distance.
The first two beaches are accessible on foot with a 5-minute stroll along a private path..
Having entered the gate to villa 'Dream in Blue', an old paved road leading to the house meanders through beds of exotic flowers.
The villa 'Dream in Blue' and its terrace are spread over 6,500 square feet, set in 30,000 square feet of fenced and protected parkland.
The house and terraces measure 659m2 all told.
An immense terrace, two swimming pools (the pools are heated for those who are squeamish about cold water!) and a Jacuzzi overlook the sea.
Around sunset, heady scents of jasmine around the Jacuzzi entice one to have a drink on the terrace.
The serenity of the place is enhanced by the gentle sounds of a waterfall splashing on lapis lazuli stone.
The house is surrounded by an 'anti-mosquito' fence that keeps the mosquitoes at bay by diffusing an organic product with a delicate perfume.
The Living Room and Master Bedroom are stylishly decorated, with exotic hardwood flooring, walls with antique patinas, and colorful touches of 'Venetian stucco' in fashionable shades.
The Kitchen and the scullery are fully equipped and open on to a pleasantly ventilated dining area on one side, and on to the living room through a bar area on the other side:
The 4 Bedrooms are spacious and tastefully decorated.
Three of the bedrooms have a king size bed, cupboards, direct access to the pools and a stunning view of the sea.
The fourth bedroom has two twin size beds that can be joined together to make a 1,8m bed.
It adjoins the master bedroom, making it an ideal children?s bedroom.
It opens onto a very private, beautifully decorated terrace with flowers, and has a gorgeous view of the sea and the mountains.
Broadband Internet Wi-Fi all around the villa.
Two rooms (the 2nd and 3rd) have their own private entrance - for 'night owls'!
The house has the advantage of a permanent caretaker who lives on the property with his own private entrance.
All these services, the stunning view and the unforgettable sunsets, make this a truly exceptional house for sophisticated guests. Certainly, it is one of the most beautiful properties on Saint Martin.
Just return to the States from our week at Dream in Blue Villa. Having rented homes and villas from Italy to Mexico and South America, Dream in Blue is likely the best we have been to. Great layout for our group of seven family members ; social areas as well as needed privacy. Walking distance to two of the best beaches on the island. And a world away from any crowds. You could not open your eyes without taking in one of the most spectacular views in the Caribbean. And the most spectacular sunsets, ever. On any return to St. Martin, this is the only place we would consider staying.

The Lion of Judah comes from the Bible's Book of Genesis. In Judaism, the lion symbolizes the Tribe of Judah. In Christianity, it is assumed to represent Jesus Christ who is described as "The Lion of Judah." In Rastafari, Haile Selassie is considered to be Jah (God) and is seen as both the reincarnation of Christ and the lion mentioned in the Bible's Book of Revelation, therefore, he is "The Lion of Judah."
In addition to the biblical significance of the lion, it also represents the struggle and the strength that rastas endured at the hand of their oppressors. The lion can be found on the Rastafarian flag, and many other things associated with Rastafari.
There are also a number of other symbols that have a great deal of meaning in Rastafarian culture. These symbols include: the Rastafarian flag, dreadlocks, and ganja.

I don't think that freckles face is bad but i think so freckles increase the face beauty and also attract the others. These girls looks beautiful more then simple girls. Freckles are clusters of concentrated melanin which are most often visible on people with a fair complexion. A freckle is also called an "ephelis". Freckles do not have an increased number of melanin producing cells. Freckles can be found on anyone no matter their genetic background; however, having freckles is genetic and is related to the presence of the dominant melanocortin-1 receptor MC1R gene variant. The formation of freckles is triggered by exposure to sunlight. The exposure to UV-B radiation activates melanocytes to increase melanin production, which can cause freckles to become darker.Freckles are predominantly found on the face, although they may appear on any skin exposed to the sun, such as the shoulders. Freckles are rare on infants, and more commonly found on children before puberty. Upon exposure to the sun, freckles will reappear if they have been altered with creams or lasers and not protected from the sun, but do fade with age in some cases. Here we have best pictures of freckles girls collection which may should inspire you.

In Memoriam: February 2009
Published: February 16, 2009Carl W. McIntosh, the second president of CSULB, died on Monday, Jan. 19, at the age of 94.
He served as president of the campus, then known as Long Beach State College (LBSC), from 1959-69. During his 10-year tenure, Long Beach State became the largest college in California in terms of student enrollment.
"At the time I came here, there were about 10,000 students, and at the time I left, the number of students who went through registration was 30,028," McIntosh once recalled. "I believe the full-time equivalent [enrollment] was somewhere around 28,000, but in 10 years there had been no other institution in this country that has ever grown [so fast]. We were adding on the average of about 1,800 students a year with a faculty to go along with them."
The challenges that accompanied the campus' dramatic growth was keeping up with faculty, staff and facilities to serve students. By the end of the McIntosh administration, many facilities had been added to the campus, including Soroptimist House, Peterson (Science) Hall 3, three engineering and two health and human services buildings, the Residence Halls and Commons and the Humanities Office Building, which was named the McIntosh Humanities Building in his honor in 1980.
"President McIntosh spent the majority of his professional life in public universities helping those students with the greatest needs. He also played an important role building Long Beach State at a time of significant growth," said CSULB President F. King Alexander. "While as president of Long Beach State, despite the civil and economic unrest impacting our nation during the 1960s, he guided our campus through a turbulent decade which ultimately produced some of our country's most important and momentous federal policies, including the National Defense Education Act (NDEA), a second major Montgomery GI Bill, the first Higher Education Act (1965), ESEA or Title I for public schools (1965) and the Civil Rights Act (1965). We all are still benefiting from the foresight of our public educational leaders of that period."
When he began his tenure at LBSC in 1959, full-time resident students were only required to pay a $29.50 materials, service and Associated Students fee a semester. But as Long Beach State grew from 10,000 students in 1959 to 20,000 by 1966, a tuition-free education had become a thing of the past, much to his chagrin.
"I defended tuition-free education, but it was like a voice crying in the wilderness. The administration's view was that if students had to pay for it, they'd appreciate it more," the former president told a Daily 49er reporter in 1989, some 20 years after he had left the campus. "I felt (tuition-free education) was the last great benefit to the middle-income American. My concern is that this benefit has eroded away. Sending kids to college is a damn expensive procedure."
Aside from enrollment growth, McIntosh also left his mark on the beautification of the campus. In 1965, a project was launched where Long Beach community leaders would donate money so that flowering peach trees could be planted on the campus. It was a popular idea with local residents who encouraged friends to do the same. Today, there are some 5,000 peach trees on the campus.
Members of the community stepped up again the next year when the campus hosted the International Sculpture Symposium in 1965. Local residents gave both money and access to facilities to help create some of the sculptures. The event brought international recognition to the campus as celebrated sculptors from around the world participated, and the resulting art pieces have been a part of the campus landscape ever since.
McIntosh's tenure was also marked by the activism of the 1960s, the draft and the war in Vietnam. Colleges across the United States became centers for protests against the war, including Long Beach State. A former staff member from that time said the president handled the campus disruption by "not panicking." Good communication was established with protesters, and classes were not disrupted and university property was not destroyed.
By the time he resigned in 1969, he had presided over a decade of dynamic growth that was marked by a three-fold increase in the campus' full-time equivalent enrollment and the major expansion of its buildings and grounds that included some 30 permanent buildings.
McIntosh came to the campus after serving as president of Idaho State University for 12 years. After resigning from Long Beach State, he went on to the presidency of Montana State University in spring 1970, retiring in 1977. He remained in the Bozeman, Mont. area until his death.
McIntosh was born in 1914 in Redlands, Calif. He received his bachelor of arts degree from the University of Redlands and his master of arts and doctor of philosophy degrees from the State University of Iowa.
John (Jack) Baird, a member of the 1993-94 Orange County Grand Jury who also served on the board for the Orange County Grand Jurors Association, died Dec. 19 at age 87. He was buried in the military cemetery in Riverside on Jan. 2. A memorial service was held on Jan. 11 at First Presbyterian Church in Anaheim. Baird spent most of his working career as a professor in the Biology Department at CSULB. He also chaired the department for a number of years and held an administrative position in the Chancellor's Office of The California State University system for five years where he worked on curriculum. He was a member and former officer of the Emeritus and Retired Faculty Association at CSULB and served on the board for the Savanna School District. Survivors include his wife Geraldine and one daughter. Memorial gifts can be made to the First Presbyterian Church of Anaheim, 310 W. Broadway, Anaheim, CA, 92805.
Maxine Keith Keenan passed away Dec. 23, in Long Beach, at the age of 95. Keenan was both an alumna and an emerita of California State College at Long Beach. She received her masters of Arts degree in Home Economics in June 1969. In 1967, she joined the faculty of the department of Family and Consumer Sciences and served full-time in 1970. She retired in 1979 as an associate professor. Her husband, Charles Stewart Keenan, was a technician for the Department of Industrial Technology at CSULB from 1957-73. He passed away in 1973. In 1981, Maxine moved to Leisure World in Seal Beach, where she spent her remaining years. She is survived by her three children, Na ncy Lewis, Charles Keenan, and Carol Keenan; daughter-in-law, Jo Anne Keenan; four grandchildren, Michael Keenan, Greg Keenan, Christopher Keenan, Christine Morse; and two great grandchildren, Owen Keenan and Ry Keenan.

Trent 700
The Trent 700 is the engine of choice on the A330 with a 57% market share
The Trent 700 is the first engine in the highly successful Trent family. It has established itself as the engine of choice on the A330 with over 57 per cent market share.
Since Cathay Pacific launched it in March 1995 the Trent 700 has logged over 30 million hours in service and accumulates around 370,000 service hours every month.
The Trent 700 delivers the power requirements for all weights of the A330 and in particular, for the higher weight aircraft operating in harsh environments. This has been demonstrated with over 70 per cent of A330 operations in the Middle East powered by the Trent 700. With the highest in-service thrust of 72,000 lb, the Trent 700 provides the best take-off performance and revenue-earning potential for operators of the A330. The engine was designed for growth capability of the A330 and incorporates materials capable pressures and temperatures for 75,000lb.
The unique three-shaft design of the RB211 Trent family means that it has fewer stages than competitor engines, giving lower maintenance costs, lower weight and better performance retention. The Trent 700 was the first in service engine to feature the 2nd generation wide chord fan blade. This blade is diffusion bonded and super-plastically formed, giving better protection from foreign object damage and also contributes to lower maintenance costs and lower noise. High time on-wing engine has completed 34744 hours without a shop visit.
Trent 700 fuel efficiency was improved with the introduction of the Trent 772B rating and through continuous improvement was further enhanced in 2009 by the introduction of the Trent 700EP, which includes a series of modification inspired by the later members of the Trent engine family, delivering over 1% reduced fuel burn. We plan to introduce further fuel burn improvements from 2015. Combined with superior performance retention the engine achieves the lowest life cycle fuel burn on the A330, further reducing operating costs.
With the lowest lifecycle fuel burn, the lowest cumulative emissions and the lowest noise levels the Trent 700 has the best environmental performance of any engine on the A330.
- The Trent 700 is a three-shaft high bypass ratio engine
- Fan diameter: 97.4 inches (2.47 metres)
- Eight-stage IP compressor
- Six-stage HP compressor
- Single annular combustor with 24 fuel injectors (Trent 700 and 800)
- Single-stage HP turbine
- Single-stage IP turbine
- Four-stage LP turbine (Trent 700)

FHA 203K Rehab Loans
Conventional Mortgages
FHA Streamline Refinance
One of the top California(CA) Mortgage Lenders
The first step in getting started buying a home is to come up with a budget. When you have your budget in place, and know what you comfort zone is, you are going to want to contact us to speak with one of our mortgage specialist to find a competitive loan package to meet your individual needs. FHAlendinggroup.com can help you with this step of the process. We have well trained staff in place to answer all of your mortgage questions.
It is also important to make sure you take the time to fully compare the mortgage packages offered by FHAlendinggroup.com to make sure your can make an informed decision. Today there are more mortgage products on the market than ever before. A few of the factors you should take into consideration when reviewing each loan offered include:
- Interest rate
- Repayment terms or the length of the loan
- Fees charged for the loan
Always be sure to ask your FHAlendinggroup.com reprehensive you are working with to explain the difference between the interest rate and the APR. One mortgage program may have a lower rate and a higher APR while other options may offer a little higher rate and a lower APR. These are the kind of things that make us different than most lenders out there. Other lender may be charging a lower interest rate because that rate includes the purchase of discount points. In some cases, it can be to your advantage to purchase discount points to lower the interest rate. But, you will only know whether it's a good deal if you also know the complete details of how much it will cost, and what the break even point is.
Repayment Terms
While traditional mortgages are repaid back in terms of 15, 20 and 30 years, longer mortgage terms are making it possible to spread out the life of your loan even longer. FHAlendinggroup.com is now offer repayment terms all the way up to a 40 year term. The advantage of these longer terms allows you to achieve lower payments on larger loans. Keep in mind; however, that means paying longer on your mortgage and paying more interest over the course of the loan. Still, for many people looking to keep their mortgage payments low, this can be a great solution. Be sure to ask your FHAlendinggroup.com reprehensive if this is an option for you.
It's not uncommon for lenders to charge fees for loan processing or origination, recording, attorneys and recording of legal documents. Sometimes; however, the fees charged may not be all that clear. Always ask up front what fees are being charged, how much is being charged and exactly what that fee covers so there is no miscommunication. Here at FHAlendinggroup.com we do not charge any origination points at all!!
FHAlendinggroup.com can help you in your next home purchase. Weather you are looking for an FHA, VA, Conventional, or Jumbo loan product we have a train staff in place to meet your every need. Give us a call and join our family!

Hi budbud, You can prune the tree immediately after pollination each season, or you can apply chemicals that cause the flowers to abort before setting fruit. I don't personally know of any 'home brew' methods, but the folks in the Fruit and Orchard forum could probably offer more suggestions. Good luck! |

About MrBuhag's Garage
About me and my passion for cars
Second only to my passion for playing in my hard rock outfit - TUCO RAMIREZ....
I've ALWAYS loved cars. ALOT. It started with Matchbox cars on the window sill and hot wheels on those funky orange tracks. Hot Rod magazine was my main study curriculum in grade school.
fast forward to now - I've had some cool ones, but am yet to own a REALLY great one. It's coming soon. I can feel it !
for the time being, I'm settling with my '05 red mustang, this year, I am determined to put my butt into a Mustang gt with enough performance mods to launch me into 400 hp heaven!
My first car
Ford Festiva - why ? because I failed (drove like i stole it) the audition (testdrive) for the then brand - new ('88) Mustang 5.0 lx .
I hopped in with my mom, uncle and ford salesman along for the ride. I immediately STOOD on the gas and scared the living daylights out of the 3 of them. I got three resounding "NO's" - even the salesman wasn't down with me gettin' it. "we've got these nice little festivas" said the bastard salesman. At first , I replied with many obscenities, but two more weeks of taking the bus to work made me fold like a leaf. I had to have something !! I was 17, cut me some slack.
Car I wish I still had
My '79 black gmc hot rod van. 400c.i. turbo 400 trans. 4:11 rear gear .plus a comfy sofabed and shag carpet. Nice.
My dream car
1970 boss mustang.
- Type of racing: drags
- Driver: danica
- Driving song: danzig
- Car movie: TWO LANE BLACKTOP

DPA Microphones Celebrates 20 Years
Alleroed, Denmark - Jun 11, 2012 - DPA Microphones is commemorating 20 years of developing microphones for pro audio. Founded in 1992 by Morten Stove and Ole Brosted Sorensen, two former employees from the measurement company Brüel & Kjaer (B&K), DPA Microphones has always made it a point to create microphones of the highest possible quality. Today, the DPA Microphones line includes vocal, instrument and studio microphones, as well as broadcast and surround-sound microphones that can be found in venues throughout the world and in use by a plethora of famous artists.
Originally known as Danish Pro Audio, the company's first offerings included studio microphones. Later, the company branched out into other types, such as miniature vocal and instrument microphones, while always maintaining the high-quality audio for which the brand was known. The company's ability to develop such equipment grew from a working relationship with hearing-aid manufacturer Muphone. The technology needed to recreate the human voice in a small compartment is an ideal solution for the pro audio industry, and one with which Muphone was very familiar.
The first microphone on which DPA and Muphone collaborated was the DPA 4060, the company's first omnidirectional miniature microphone. It was used in broadcast and theater environments andsoon gained success as a small, good sounding microphone that could be hidden in clothes and wigs and attached to instruments, among other uses. This product led to the development of the DPA 4066 miniature headset microphone in 1998.
Evidence of more background noise on stage, which created an uncontrolled recording environment, drove the decision to create high-quality miniature microphones. This shift in musical characteristics required microphones that were directional rather than omnidirectional. In 2004 the partners introduced the DPA 4088 directional headset microphone.
The following year, DPA and Muphone officially merged. With each passing year, DPA has continued to unveil premium microphones with a range of uses, such as the DPA 4080, a cardioid lavaliere microphone; the DPA 4017, a supercardioid microphone and the DPA 4099, a series of supercardioid, miniature live instrument microphones.
Always seeking to continue to develop and improve on its line to adjust to the market changes, DPA Microphones have developed many groundbreaking technologies. Most recently, the company released several new microphones that have already been well received. These include the D:fine series of headset microphones and the D:facto vocal microphone. The company also recently announced the rebranding of its popular 4099 live instrument mic series -- now known as D:vote 4099.
In addition to its headquarters in Denmark, a subsidiary in the U.S. and a sales office in China, DPA serves its customers through its channel distribution network in more than 50 countries. These dedicated partners provide local support to the company's worldwide customer base and are a vital key to DPA's continued success.

Facebook falls to half of public offering price
PUBLISHED: 19 Aug 2012 11:31:59 | UPDATED: 20 Aug 2012 13:01:30PUBLISHED: 19 Aug 2012 PRINT EDITION: 20 Aug 2012
Facebook's stock fell to $US19 for the first time on Friday, losing half its market value since the company's initial public offering in May.
The stock dipped 87 cents, or 4 per cent, to briefly hit $US19, just minutes before it closed the trading day at $US19.05. Facebook's shares ended the week down nearly 13 per cent.
Facebook hit the $US19 milestone a day after the expiration of a lock-up period that had previously prevented some early investors and insiders from selling their shares. Stakeholders who owned a combined 271 million Facebook shares before Thursday can now sell their holdings.
A breakdown of just how many major Facebook shareholders sold their stock this week won't be available until next week at the earliest, when sellers must disclose such transactions.
Facebook's stock has struggled since the company's mid-May IPO. It closed its first day of trading barely above its initial offering price of $US38. It has been below that level since.
The stock has been down on 38 trading days, up on 25 days and unchanged on one since its initial public offering.
Investors have been concerned about the social network's ability to increase revenue and make money from its growing mobile audience. Many analysts, however, hold positive opinions of the company's long-term prospects.

The lost art of crowd control {WoW}
Aug 15th 2009 1:29PM Man, I miss CC. Complicated trash pulls were a big part of what made instances fun. Not many people even know what a "LOS" pull is any more. And Why is it that just when rogues get a new rank of "Sap" making them a great all-around CC Class, CC becomes useless in instances. :(
New in-game battle bots connected to Mountain Dew? {WoW}
May 6th 2009 3:52AM As Jenny attempted to point out in an earlier post this isn't the first time a soda promo was used in-game. In China 2006 they introduced the iCoke promo pets like this one:
I think so many people QQ'd about it then that they would be glad to see an American version of this sort of thing. (which we still don't know that this is)
I did read an article that said the Chinese client includes in-game advertisements for Coke and other products, which is not so cool- but I doubt Blizz will go that far with it in US
Give Bloodlust to Rogues {WoW}
May 6th 2009 3:07AM I don't really agree that bloodlust should be a rogue ability, but give us something!
There could be up to a million Chinese gold farmers {WoW}
May 6th 2009 3:00AM I'm not sure if there is any way to know if "most" of the gold that is sold comes from hacked accounts, and anyway, who cares? If ANY of that gold is taken from hacked accounts, the act of buying it makes you implicit in the crime. What kind of argument is that, anyway? " Oh, it's only 10% immoral, that makes it 100% okay" Doesn't really hold water.
On the day that Blizzard provides authenticators with every copy of WoW and every player has them, and it proves to be a foolproof method of account security, then I will see that buying gold may not be immoral- but it still screws up the balance of the game.
Let me tell you that I am a pretty poor WoW player, and have never considered buying gold, even though I sympathize with people who feel it is unfair that they have limited game time and can't keep up with the gold they want to have. I even sympathize with the people in poor areas who are being offered a job that is keeping them fed. But until there is no such thing as a hacked account I will always be vehemently against the buying and selling of gold- I want Blizzard's resources to be spent in much better ways than restoring hacked accounts, and I want to stop the frustration people in my gaming community feel when they have been hacked- but I will never buy gold myself in WoW- I enjoy doing things the right way, and feeling as if I have accomplished something.
So buy gold if you don't care about your fellow players, but don't try to justify it to yourself by saying that you're not hurting someone. Better yet, go play a "free-to-play" MMO like Runes of Magic if you want that sort of game- why would you even play WoW if you have to cheat to do it?

All eleven of the World Bank's presidents since 1946—men who have presented themselves as missionaries of the poor—have been members of the CFR. (The exception was George Woods. And he was a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation and vice-president of Chase-Manhattan Bank.)
jaxxsonV commented on the blog post The PMS of S&P
agreed. NOW
jaxxsonV commented on the blog post Another Fine Mess
I understand about Milton Friedman. I would hope, though, that you might take a deeper look at the University of Chicago and the Chicago School of Economics. Posner is a lawyer like Obama and not an economist. Posner was, at the same time, a beacon in the Chicago School of Economics (until his recent reversal and embrace of Keynesian thought). My point was that it is all one environment, intermingled, where the dominant thought, even cross discipline, is common to the incubator.
jaxxsonV commented on the blog post Another Fine Mess
The quote was paraphrasing what I think Friedman said about the Great Depression. His remedy was, of course, laissez-faire. However, he said, if you have to deal with the Fed, then monetary controls are best ou can do. FDR and Keynesian economics, Friedman contended (ISTR), served to "make a natural downturn into a catastrophe".
I think much of South America has thrown the yoke of The Chicago Boys. It appears to me that any remaining is due to the insistence of IMF and TWB, which are tools of the Empire.
Forgive me, but I do not see monetarism at work in Russia today. At the fall, the Empire applied the same shock doctrine policy to Russia that they have since used in Iraq and Libya (the theft of resources; not the guns). Today, while divesting total state ownership in many industries "to attract investment and technology", the Russian government is generally retaining major interests. I follow avidly what is happening in Europe, i.e. the German/Russian economic courtship, the jealous French pursuit (of necessity) to not be left out, etc. There is an ongoing re-alignment of state interests and economics of gargantuan proportions that holds in my mind the great offset challenge to the American right wing.
jaxxsonV commented on the blog post Another Fine Mess
As a former professor in the Chicago School of Economics (mainly the University of Chicago business school and law school co-functioning as one entity), wouldn't Obama's current course be consistent with perceived biases from that environment? I am not an econo (rather a longtime reporter), but it appears to me that Obama is using the other guys to get exactly what he wants. It looks like a classical Friedman cure for "a little recession without turning it into something bad." Maybe Obama IS playing umpty-umpty level chess… on and about our heads. All the more reason the Democratic Party should treat him the way the Whigs did Tyler!

Resources by Topic | Finding Legal Assistance

Requesting Legal Assistance from NARF
On this page:
The websites below are organized into several groups, but many provide a wide variety of resources. This web page does not represent a complete list of legal aids available. If you think an additional site should be linked, please contact the library.
Your local libraries can be a helpful source of information and might be able to provide you with local directories of information about legal aid and lawyers. Your area might have a local bar association, for instance. (Check the business listing of your phone book.) Guidance on how to perform legal research is available at the library's research guides.
Types of Legal Assistance
1. Lawyers and Law Firms certain law firms specialize in Native American issues. While law firms may charge a premium for some services, they may also allow discounted, or even free, support for some services. Discounted or free service availability will generally depend on (1) the type of service, (2) situation of the client, or (3) availability of attorneys practicing pro bono work.
2. Pro Bono is a Latin term meaning done without compensation for the public good. Lawyers are encouraged to provide free legal service by volunteering their time. Lawyers practicing pro bono work can be found through pro bono service directories.
3. Legal Aid every state should have a legal aid service. These services are funded with federal, state, and private contributions. The support provided may vary from free (for some services) to affordable/discounted rates for other services. Colorado Legal Services, for instance, does not charge a fee so long as the client meets certain federal income guidelines.
Income eligibility for legal assistance: To find out if you may qualify for legal aid, check out the legal aid requirements set by the Legal Services Corporation. They establish maximum income levels for individuals eligible for legal assistance based on current Federal Poverty Guidelines. In addition the Legal Services Act provides that other specified factors shall be taken into account along with income. See the "Income Level for Individuals Eligible for Assistance" published in the Federal Register (Feburary 2, 2012 (Volume 77, Number 4904)).
4. Indian Law Clinics exist at some law schools. The clinics provide law students with experience in Native American law, and at the same time provide legal services to tribes and low-income Native clients. Some clinics will work with tribal governments, courts, organizations and attorneys. Other clinics will work with Native clients on Native issues, representing them in state, federal, tribal, and government hearings. Check the clinic near you for their practice guidelines.

Popular wisdom tells us that if you contract a disease or infection then your body develops an immunity to it by manufacturing antibodies for repelling that particular disease; so that you don't usually catch the same thing twice.
According to this expert this acquired immunity will last typically for a couple of decades except in the case of those with compromised immune systems. For the most part this is true for the H1N1 Swine Flu virus as well.
With the current Swine flu virus though, the current strain is a new one that has elements of human, swine and bird flu viruses so in that sense it is a new virus and most people will have no immunity to it the first time around.
If one is infected now and the virus then once again mutates or changes, then that same virus in a changed form will have infected you again. This is one of the apprehensions that the medical community currently has about this current Swine Flu pandemic, that it will mutate and change form.
The bottom line is, that even if you have had the swine flu, you still need to be vigilant and careful about prevention. Continue to take the usual precautions of hand washing, sneezing into a napkin or the sleeve, staying home and not congregating indoors if you have symptoms.

2. Ratcheting Anvil Lopper
To get a more powerful pruning tool, you would have to use one that is hydraulically or pneumatically driven. The manufacturer of this ratcheting anvil lopper claims it will cut a 2-in.-dia. branch with ease, and that its cutting force is seven times what you apply. To use it, you hook the lower jaw around the branch, keep the handle with the red grip stationary and pump the green handle up and down. When the blade sinks into the branch, release pressure on the green handle, and back it off until the ratchet clicks into position. Then repeat this until you drive the blade through the branch. The ruggedly built tool is made out of high-carbon steel, and it has ash handles. It costs $149 postpaid. Contact American Standard, 157 Water St., Southington, CT 06489; 800-275-3618.
3. Compound-Action Telescoping Lopper
Aside from a ratchet action, there are two other ways to increase a lopper's cutting force. One is a compound-action hinge, and the other is increasing handle length. This anvil lopper has both features. To extend or retract its handles, you turn them to the unlock position and then push them in or out, and lock them in position again. It's also helpful to be able to extend the handle length from 18 to 31 in. for increased reach to high branches or when making cuts well inside thickly branched shrubs. The tool has an adjustable and replaceable anvil, and its blade is Teflon-coated to reduce the tendency of tree sap to stick to it. It costs about $42 at hardware stores, home centers and garden centers. Contact Ames Lawn and Garden Tools, P.O. Box 1774, Parkersburg, WV 26102; 800-624-2654.
4. Anvil Lopper
There's something to be said for a tool that's simple and direct, as in the case of this inexpensive anvil lopper. It's rated for 1 1/2-in.-dia. branches, and its blade is beveled on both sides to decrease cutting resistance. Note that its large anvil is adjustable. This allows you to position it for a clean cut as the blades wear and are resharpened. It costs about $42 at hardware stores and home centers. Contact Ames Lawn and Garden Tools, P.O. Box 1774, Parkersburg, WV 26102; 800-624-2654.
5. Gear-Drive Anvil Lopper
This 15-in.-long lopper weighs only 13 ounces, but it's surprisingly powerful due to the geared cutting head and handle. Its blade is stainless steel, and the body and jaw are glass fiber-reinforced plastic. It's rated to cut a 1 1/2-in.-dia. branch. It costs about $30 at hardware stores and home centers. Contact Fiskars, Lawn & Garden Division, 780 Carolina St., Sauk City, WI 53583; 800-500-4849.
6. Serrated Anvil Pruner
This anvil pruner has serrations on its anvil to hold a flower stem or branch firmly as the blade closes on it. In the case of flower stems, the serrations also roughen the stem slightly to allow increased water penetration, and the stem crusher on the inside of the handle further improves the cut stem's water pickup. Note that the tool has a blunt tip so that you can slide it into a pocket or into a work apron. To make it comfortable to use, its top handle is covered with rubber. Regardless of whether you are right- or left-handed, the tool should work for you because its blade latch is accessible from both sides of the handle. It costs about $20 at hardware stores and home centers. Contact Union Tools, 500 Dublin Ave., P.O. Box 1930, Columbus, OH 43216.
7. Ratchet Anvil Pruner
This small, lightweight pruner is a study in mechanical efficiency. Made by the same manufacturer as the ratcheting lopper, it's designed to have a cutting force seven times that which you apply to the handle. Despite its light weight and almost delicate looks, the manufacturer says the 3 1/2-ounce tool will cut a 3/4-in.-dia. branch. The reason is the blade. In a process called austempering, the high-carbon steel blade is treated to make it very tough and chip resistant, yet able to be resharpened. The tool's body is glass fiber-reinforced nylon. It costs $34.95 postpaid from American Standard, 157 Water St., Southington, CT 06489; 800-275-3618.

NVR, Inc. ( NVR ) unveiled the new Springbrook model homes at Regency at Highland Lakes in Westerville, Ohio. Springbrook homes are low maintenance single-family patio homes in a gated community. Regency is located in the reputed Olentangy School District. Home prices start from $190,000 upwards. The Springbrook includes ranch style living space with large rooms, formal dining space and eat-in kitchens. The homes have 2 bedrooms with a common bath and a master bedroom with 2 walk-in closets, dual vanities and a shower. The home also offers a two car garage. Like all other NV homes, Springbrook homes come with a 10-year structural warranty and are ENERGY STAR certified. The residents of Regency will the facilities of community living such as parks, swimming pool and a clubhouse. They will also be provided with lawn maintenance, snow removal and trash removal services. Regency homes are close to stores and restaurants at Polaris Fashion Place, Alum Creek State Park and Highland Lakes Golf Club. NVR Inc. had previously introduced similar single family homes in Stonegate West in Aurora, Illinois, with prices starting from $220,000 upwards. The company had also introduced Ravenna single-family model homes at Lovettsville Town Center in Lovettsville, Virginia, with prices starting from $320,000 upwards. We like the company's initiative to constantly introduce new products. With the improvement in the housing market and rising house rents, people are finding it suitable to purchase a home. As such, people who had been delaying purchases are coming back stronger than expected.
With frequent introduction of products, the company will be able to capitalize on the improving markets. Particularly, NVR's recent introduction of luxury homes will enable the company to capitalize on the fast recovering luxury housing market. However, we would prefer to stay on the sidelines as the company generally offers homes in different price ranges to cater to different sections of the market. As a result, the company is still exposed to uneven recovery of the housing market. NVR Inc. carries a Zacks #3 Rank in the near term (Hold rating). We currently have a Neutral recommendation on NVR Inc. Headquartered in Reston, Virginia, NVR Inc. is one of the leading home building and mortgage banking companies in the United States. The three homebuilding brands owned by the company include Ryan Homes, NVHomes and Fox Ridge Homes. NVR Inc. focuses on purchasing completed building lots at market prices under flat price purchase agreements, in order to forgo the risk associated with land ownership and land development.

From fan to friend: "Zac Efron calls me!"
Seventeen was at the set visit of Zac's new movie 17 Again (to be released this summer), and Kathryn and Heather were there, too. Even though they're the most devoted fans of all, this would be the first time they would finally be meeting Mr. Efron in person. (They've come close: they were invited to the premiere of Hairspray but couldn't dig up the funds to go.) Even though they hadn't met yet, they still were in close contact with Zac. After he discovered their site, he started getting in touch with them for content, like addressing gossip in their "Rumors" section. Heather remembers the first time he called her. She was delivering pizzas for her part-time job and was almost speechless when she answered. Now, they all have each other's numbers in their cell phones. Zac even texted Kathryn right before she got to the set to say, "I'm really excited we get to finally meet!"
The girls waited patiently while Zac acted out scenes with co-star Michelle Trachtenberg. The others of us on the scene were nervous for them (to finally meet him after so many years!), but we were more excited than anything. And we're sure they probably felt the same way.
Zac finally ran downstairs in between scenes to say hi to everyone. And guess who he went to first? That's right! He gave Kathryn and Heather a huge, genuine hug and chatted with them about the plane ride and how happy he was that they finally got to meet. The girls were so cool and collected, even when he asked them to go to lunch!
After they finished talking, posing for pictures and saying goodbye, we had to get the scoop. Was meeting Zac Efron in person everything they thought it would be? Yes! The girls were smiling the rest of the night.
Can you imagine getting a personal phone call or text message from Zac Efron? What would you do? And have you ever had a celeb be so nice to you like that? Tell us about it now!

Some of you may be aware of the large Salvia splendens that was discovered by an older couple in their salvia patch they grew every year from their own seeds. They have come to be known as simply Yvonne's salvia. The story was written up in Birds and Blooms magazine by Emily Huntington, who subsequently grew the 6' salvias herself and was instrumental in helping Yvonne distribute seeds all over N. America (and they've gone on to other countries as well). For the past few years, Yvonne's salvia has been a topic of various threads on the GW Salvia forum, as well as others.
The elderly couple have both passed away - Yvonne most recently, about 10 days ago. We have a movement under way promoting the idea of growing this salvia this year in tribute to Yvonne, celebrating her salvia and the wonderful person that she was. An effort is also being made to officially introduce this salvia under her name. On the GW Winter Sowing forum you can see the original thread on this topic. Check it out, see a link to Yvonne's obituary, and if you have her seeds or can get ahold of some, join us in planting Yvonne's Salvia this year in her memory. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Planting aTribute to Yvonne
Follow-Up Postings:
Can you find any of the seeds locally ? I added a bunch of 'Black and Blue' to my garden last year and the hummers were in heaven. If they like 'Yvonne's' even half as much I'd probably have to wear a helmet :-) |
- Posted by patrick888 z8 SeaTac WA (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 2:28
Hummers do use Yvonne's Salvia, but I don't know whether they favor them equally with Black and Blue. The seeds have not been introduced into commercial production so far. They have been passed from one person to the next as they harvest seeds from their plants. I will send you an email. |
Hi Patrick: If you have any extra seeds, I would like to make room for this salvia in my garden. I went back and read a little about Ivonne --What a great idea. If you are all out of seeds please keep me in mind for next year. Thanks a lot. |
- Posted by patrick888 z8 SeaTac WA (My Page) on Tue, Mar 10, 09 at 15:05
I've emailed boxofrox and flora2. I've been sharing the few seeds I have on hand in 30-seed allotments for either a SASBE or $2 for me to provide the same. I'll soon be out of my seed supply, but Emily said you can contact her or Karen for seeds...see the referenced GW thread. |
Patrick, I haven't received an e-mail as of yet. I do have several full sun spots left where I wouldn't mind them. |

Ben Witherington, Professor of New Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary, has written prolifically on NT themes, especially in the areas of "Jesus Research." (Note especially his The Jesus Quest: The Third Search for the Jew of Nazareth [Downers Grove, Ill.: InterVarsity, 1995]). It is not surprising, therefore, that Witherington often refers to his own publications in this present book, especially his socio-rhetorical commentaries on Mark and Acts.
Inevitably, a book with this title invites comparison with another wellknown work by F. F. Bruce (New Testament History [New York: Doubleday and Company, 1971]). As a matter of fact, I. Howard Marshall mentions this in his laudatory recommendation on the back cover: "I can think of no higher praise than to say that this book may well do for this generation what F. F. Bruce's New Testament History did for an earlier one." Since this reviewer was part of that "earlier" generation that profited from and utilized Bruce's volume often, a comparison is appropriate, especially since Witherington and his publishers chose the same title for this book. Though we should also evaluate Witherington's volume on its own merits, we should explore the question of whether this volume will serve this generation in the same way as Bruce's did his.
The book carries readers from the time of Alexander the Great to the reign of Domitian and the exile of John. More specifically he explores the "intertestamental" events (two chapters); the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus (three and a half chapters); the apostolic events (eight and a half chapters), and the post-70 events (two chapters).
Bruce's treatment was more detailed on the pre-John and Jesus history (fully one third of his book). This reviewer thinks that Witherington could have given more detailed coverage of this period, especially the Hasmonean period (only three pages, 40-42), which left such a deep impression on the background history of Second Temple Judaism.
Witherington seeks to explore the geographical, political, social, and religious influences that shaped the leaders and movements of the day. The degree to which he succeeds in doing this is debatable. He seeks to accomplish this purpose by a series of more focused sections he calls "A Closer Look." In these he gives greater attention, for example, to "The Pharisees" (45 -48), "Time and Calendars in Antiquity" (62-64), "Josephus the Jewish Historian" (84-86), "Zealots or Bandits?" (87-89), "Essenes and Qumranites" (93-96), and "Significance of the Sanhedrin" 148-50). These are some of the most helpful contributions of the book, not only for the insight into these important subjects, but for the insight they sometimes provide into Witherington's personal views. This can be seen, for example, in "Q and A on Q" (100-103) and "Miracles and History" (120-21).
The fact, however, that Witherington works in his particular interpretation of the data should not be surprising or objectionable in itself. In a very interesting "Prolegomenon" (14-28) he makes a very good case for the statement, "There is no such thing as uninterpreted history" (15). It is obvious that Luke and John were not attempting to be neutral about their subject matter since they provide clear statements that their writing was evidently tendentious (Luke 1:1-4 and especially John 20:31). The question that must be asked about a historical treatment of certain events is whether the facts are illumined or obscured by the presentation.
Witherington appears to affirm that the "historians" who penned the first five books of the New Testament did not obscure the facts, although it would be helpful if he made that clearer at times. For example, while our author seems to argue for the historicity of the resurrection (it is the best explanation of the subsequent changed lives of the apostles and the existence of the church), one wishes that he had attempted to address the charge that the Gospel writers present contradictory accounts of the post-resurrection events.
A few more criticisms are in order. Witherington is too dependent on Hayes and Mandell's work, The Jewish People in Classical Antiquity: From Alexander to Bar Cochba (Louisville: Westminster/John Knox, 1998) and less attentive to the classic work of Emil Schurer, The History of the Jewish People in the Age of Jesus Christ, both in its original and in its revised editions (rev. and ed. by G. Vermes and F. Millar, Edinburgh: Clark, 1973 ). This shows up also in his refusal to see any real "Jewish" commitment on the part of Herod the Great. Anyone attempting to tout H erod as a consistent, God-fearing Jew has a huge task on his hands. Witherington's rejection, however, of the magisterial work on Herod by Peter Richardson, Herod the Great: King of the Jews and Friend of the Romans (Columbia, S.C.: University of South Carolina Press, 1996), is disappointing. It is well known that Herod, in addition to building many lasting monuments for his Jewish subjects, most notably the Temple, also constructed some pagan temples, although not in Judea. To conclude that "Herod was not a monotheistic Jew," as Witherington does (footnote, 53) simply is not warranted by the evidence. Herod was the consummate survivor. He knew whom he had to please to keep his position: the Romans who put him in power and kept him there. His temples in honor of Augustus were simply acts of gratitude to his patron, not indications of his polytheism! These buildings were evidence of his political "kowtowing," not indications of some religious commitment. Richardson's evidence of Herod's many acts of benevolence towards his Jewish subjects also contradicts the charge of his commitment to paganism. This reviewer does not want to be accused of defending the sadistic behavior of Herod, especially toward his own family. Witherington's rejection of his Jewishness, however, does not take into account all the facts. We simply do not know for sure what Herod personally believed. To imply that he was a polytheist, however, goes far beyond a sober consideration of all the facts that we know about him.
Readers who hold to the traditional evangelical positions on authorship of the Gospels and the literary relationships between the Synoptic Gospels need to know that Witherington believes that only Mark was composed before A.D. 70 (363). He assigns the Gospel attributed to Matthew to the mid to late 70s and denies that the apostle assembled its contents, probably only contributing the "M" material unique to the Gospel, such as Matthew 1 and 2 (381-83). He suggests Luke wrote his two volume work in the late 70s or early 80s and ended the account at about A.D. 64 (Acts 28) because he had gotten too old to bring the story any further up to date (387). Such conclusions seem to be motivated by the author's commitment to (1) Markan priority, (2) the literary dependence of Matthew and Luke on M ark, and (3) the existence of the mythical "Q" document (100-103, 378-81). Though this is not the place to give evaluations of these positions, let it be said that such ideas were foreign to the patristic writers, some of whom remembered the apostles, and also were foreign to Gospel scholarship for 1,700 years after the apostles!
I do not want to leave the impression that Witherington's book is without real value and positive contribution. He knows his subject well and has communicated it clearly. I am not ready, however, to have his book replace the classic work by F. F. Bruce on my course reading lists.
