PET-NEWSWORTHY If you're considering adding a pet to your home in 2015, you're in very good company. As many as 71.4 million homes are expected to include a pet in 2015. According to the American Pet Product Association, pet families have increased from 56% of households in 1988 to 62% this year.
FIRST TIME OWNERS When you bring a new puppy into your home, it's a time of great excitement for everyone involved: you, your kids, your neighbors, and even the dog. Here's our guide on what to expect and how to handle the transition without losing your mind.
HEALTHAlthough it's not a topic any of us really want to think about, responsible dog parenting requires that we give some thought to what would happen to our dogs if one day we didn't come home.
FIRST TIME OWNERS Congratulations! You've decided to bring a new little four-legger into your family's home. Now comes the big decision: should you get a dog or a cat? Here are a few things to consider as you make your decision.
HEALTHDog fighting used to be a sport meant to entertain police officers and firefighters, and was advertised in police gazettes. Now that numerous laws have been passed that make dog fighting illegal, the sport has simply gone underground.
DOG HEALTH Many new puppies are adopted throughout the year, especially around Holiday time. One responsibility most first time dog owners forget to take into account is the amount of veterinary care that is necessary in keeping your puppy happy and healthy! Learn the basics of finding a vet and getting puppy vaccinated.
DOG HEALTHThere are many benefits to spaying and neutering, but there are also more than a few risks. We want to give you often overlooked information you need to make a full and informed choice.
ADOPTION Are you intimidated by the prospect of "rescuing" a dog from a shelter? One reason that you may be wary of adopting a dog from a shelter is not knowing how to choose. Adopting a dog from a shelter can be a rewarding process, if you're prepared to do a reasonable amount of research.

"My opinion: slow and"
I was not happy with the slowness of the story development. Although the story line had potential, the author kept having the lead characters make dumb mistakes during times of crisis!
"Mixed feelings "
The heroine is a strong woman, which to my liking. However, this book is somewhat slow. I suspect the author is trying to fill the pages with words that do nothing for the story, but allows for the necessity of another book in the series. Additionally, and more disconcerting is the constant romantic aspect that pervades an otherwise good story line.
Having said the above, I will be waiting for the next book in the series.
"Story concept good, however..."
While I enjoyed the "potential" of the story, I did not care for, in my opinion, the quirky way the author presented the material.
"Interesting story...but"
I enjoy the magical realm in books, and like strong women/men who fight for what is right. I was very disappoined in this book, given I felt it was very slow to develop, and very little magical moments. Most of the book was given over to romance, not what I wanted to read, albeit, the story line was interesting, barring the hours of romantic and convoluted personal relationships.
"Excitment, on and off..."
If the author would focus on the story line, it would have been a great book. However, the story facilated between philosophy, romance, with an emphasis on the hero trying to be less. Bummer!
"Slow to develop"
A lot of introspection, and painfully slow. A lot of potential, only if the author can get a grip on the story. The reader had a sing song presentation which I did not care like.
I did not enjoy this book, mainly because I prefer a linear story. This one, with it's flashbacks, and converging story lines was confusing to me, and tiring. However, someone with a more agile mind may enjoy it. ;-)
"Bummer...love story"
I started reading and enjoying this series with the first three books. I enjoy science fiction and strong women, which was both indicated in the first three books.
For some reason, the author has changed the lead character, making her weak, indecisive, and unable to defend herself. Not what I was hoping for, nor expecting. I did not read book four because of the reviews, but thought this book would get back on track. Not so.
As it turned out, this was basically a love story, and not a science fiction, nor a strong woman.
"Confusing story"
Started and stopped several time. I just couldn't connect with this story no matter how much I tried.
Why do author's take the lead hero, give superpowers,and then have them whine about using them, or fail to use the powers given until the last moment. The story line had great potential, so I listened to the next book hoping the hero would step up. Some use of his powers, maybe the third book! If I decide to continue.

Enjoy your last couple of days!
... not one of those things that you are required to do that reviews old content, but a flashback to one of my earliest blog posts! Okay so I am kind of cheating and not "really" writing a blog post--- but back when I only had myself and 2 others (okay my teaching partners) as followers, you might have missed this idea! Here is how we motivate our students to read after a long week break...
Enjoy your last couple of days!
So it's that time of year... our kids have had several weeks off of school and we need to be creative in coming up with ways to get them back into school mode. Commence the Snowball Fight! The kids will get to color in a snowball for each book they read at home (kids who are in chapter books will fill out a snowball for each chapter). We had four snow days the week before Christmas Vacation so I spent the better part of two days making this display (Not true this year, so I don't know when I will find the time to get this up!!!!). Each first grade teacher has a penguin and a graph. The graph will fill up as the class reads more and more books!
Here is my penguin! Notice the polka-dotted bow!
A close-up of the graph. We will celebrate the success of the snowball fight at the end of January. We have a day called Camp Read-A-lot where the students are encouraged to bring their sleeping bags and favorite books to read with their buddies!'
Enjoy your last couple of days!

The board is adorable and the snowball fight is pure genius!

The Best EndingsI love this idea! I will be emailing my teaching partners about it tonight! Thanks for sharing!
Jennifer @ Herding Kats In KindergartenThis is super cute! Love it and such a great motivator!
First Grade Blue SKiesLove this idea! I'm in 3rd grade but think it could work for my kiddos too!
Twins, Teaching and Tacos.Love it! I need to email my teammates tonight!
Adventures of a Third Grade TeacherThat is so cute! We have done a snowball blizzard with books ...I like the graphing idea though...seems a little more manageable!

Friendly staff. Great breakfast. Small but warm pool. Comfortable beds. Easy to find and great location to restaurants and shopping.
The staff was very friendly. the pool was down, but they were very apologetic.
Diner hooked on to hotel so since it was cold and snowing could go to the diner and eat and drink
Said free breakfast but there was none
You stood in water while taking a shower, the sink didn't drain properly, the toilet handle had to be wiggled to keep from running. The ice machine in hall sounded like ice dumping in night, the nice pool was quite chilly. I
Price The staff was nice.
The facility is worn out. The mattress was so old the fabric was age dis colored. My non smoking room had a cigaret burned spread and smelled like smoke. The tub was stained black around the drain.
My room was right across from the ice machine and it was very loud. I would put a door on the ice machine area and put a more sound proof door on the those rooms
Great value for a clean, comfortable room. It's not the nicest hotel, but they have thought of the essentials. The hotel is right by the airport, which was great for our early departure. Otherwise, it's about 15-20 minutes to get into the downtown area but the drive is easy.
Everything was pretty nice. If I had to comment on one thing, the room appeared updated but the bathroom was a bit dated. It was still clean and functional, but cramped for my wife and I.
The rooms were a nice size, the people were extremely friendly (especially Sydney) and the breakfast was great.
There was no elevator, but we personally didn't have a problem with it.
Desk help was very personable
Can't think of anything
New so spotless, but located close to train tracks. And the trains come through overnight. We were there in February, and our fourth-floor room was overly warm. Had to turn on A/C! Our double room was smallish, but had a great river view. Staff is best feature -- courteous, solicitous and friendly. I called later about an item we left behind. They located it and helped arrange to ship it back to us. I would stay again.
Everything about this hotel was fantastic! New construction and facilities made for a great stay. The staff was respectful and accommodating in every possible fashion. Thrilled to have been able to stay here and be so close to downtown Des Moines for the Des Moines marathon! If I come back to downtown Des Moines for a weekend getaway this will be where I stay.
The day staff and management were very attentive and respectful. My complaints were heard and I believe they will be acted upon. The pool and hot tub were well kept. It's also very close to the interstate so if you're on the road it's a good stopover.
Night staff was fairy inattentive and unprofessional. Beds were rather too firm for my taste. Ultimately the stay was marred by these two factors. Difficult to find your way into the correct parking lot at night, you see literally no branded signage.
Everyone was very friendly. Rooms were clean and they had a nice pool and spa.
Breakfast was so so.
The workout facility was fine and the room was cozy.
The building is really outdated and carpet looks sort of dirty and old.
Close to airport
Location was convenient. Price OK.
Would not force my wife to stay in run-down conditions. Needs complete renovation and new room amenities.
The value was good. The staff was very friendly.
Friendly and helpful staff - both front desk and valet; helpful with directions and made a couple of good restaurant recommendations; Location convenient for an event my wife and I attended during our stay and the valet shuttle included at no additional cost was helpful. Nice breakfast offerings.
While I got lucky with a dynamite parking spot in front of the hotel for the weekend and didn't need to move my car, the notion of valet parking for $15 per night was distasteful (I know it can be much more in major coastal cities). Sunday morning breakfast should not end at 10 a.m. - it should run at least until 11.
The room was so luxurious & the staff was amazing! The free breakfast was delicious! We loved staying at the Hyatt! Would definitely recommend & stay there again!
The difficult parking, didn't find a spot & had to use valet
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Ig bi geng ume ufem Haslibärg Like Hasliberg for having such an open view facing south to the Eiger and for its frequent bluebirds due to the Föhn, don't like it for its frequent down days also due to the Föhn. Can't have it all .
But one of my favorites is Zermatt. The scenery is simply amazing. What about you?

Yeah Zermatt is so sick but since I live in Geneva I also go to Chamonix and Megève a lot.
There's also tons of really small ski resorts in France where you can hike a bit and find some really nice powder - not this year though |

I'm in the Zurich area, so I do most of my riding at Engelberg, Flumserberg and Laax. I do have some powder spots at smaller resorts, but with the weak snowfall this winter I've only hit those spots up twice. I have friends in Leysin and Gstaad, so I'll go down there on long weekends. But this year's snowfall (outside of last week) has been kind of a bummer.

Been lucky last weekend and found nice runs with 20cm of fresh but at some spots, you hit grass right under that fresh. Very dangerous when crossing fences... laid down barbed wires lurk only softly covered by some snow... evil trip wires
Engelberg haven't been on Titlis in ages... grew up back there. There have been plans to connect Hasliberg with Titlis via Melchseefrut but I dont know, if this will ever become reality.

On the Corsair's maiden flight, she broke the speed record for a single-seat fighter aircraft […] Read More |

Paul Laurence Dunbar High School Yearbook
Named after the late 19th-century poet and Dayton native, Paul Laurence Dunbar High School was initially intended to be a middle school, but soon admitted high school students as well due to its immediate popularity. Dunbar followed in the tradition of America's first all-black high school in Washington, D.C., with which it shares a name. The school also served as a center of employment for African American teachers, who often found themselves unemployed after completing teacher training due to the preference for hiring white teachers. Emphasizing that separate truly is inherently unequal, Dunbar's yearbook more closely resembles a pamphlet in its design; there are no individual student portraits, no extravagant prom photos, and it is smaller than yearbooks at white high schools, measuring at less than 8x10 inches. Additionally, there are nearly twice as many female graduates as there are male. What might have caused this disparity?
The Battle for Iwo Jima
The famous flag-raising atop Mt. Suribachi took place on February 23, 1945, five days after the battle began. Associated Press photographer Joe Rosenthal took the iconic photograph of five marines and one Navy corpsman: Cpl. Harlon Block, Navy Pharmacist's Mate John Bradley, Cpl. Rene Gagnon, PFC Franklin Sousley, Sgt. Michael Strank, and Cpl. Ira Hayes. Three of these men—Strank, Sousley, and Block—were killed before the battle for Iwo Jima was over. Rosenthal's photograph, which was quickly wired around the world and reproduced in newspapers across the United States, later served as a model for the Marine Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery, and remains one of the war's most enduring images.

What a great way to travel across the alps; drive across this high mountain pass at the beginning of the season shortly after it opens. The snow and ice that lines part of the road (more so on the southern Italian approach) is 2-3 metres high in places! Most people drive slowly and there are frequent places to stop so you can enjoy the views. The monastery and church at the top are steeped in history. We snuck a view of the StBernards in their cages as the 10 Swiss franc charge seemed somewhat steep to look and not pat

Ford axles underneath xj questions
OK guys I don't think I've posted much on here but I ran into some trouble with my xj and wanna go full width. My plan is a Ford 9ich for the rear and a 70s hp Dana 44 for the front. I know it's been done plenty of times just looking for the right place to buy the new leaf and coil purches. I keep destroying my 8.25 rear pinion yoke and I'm ready to go full width. I hope those pics show the jeep. I'm doing this off my phone lol if they don't show up I'll get on the computer. But is a 99 xj with 4.6 low budget stroker and rough country 6.5 inch long arm kit locked rear 8.25 and 33 inch general grabbers on American racing Kevlar coated rims.

well as all are saying that this is illegal to download from torrent site. but they all are doing same so u can also do that. the site name is www.torrentz.com. there u will see the search bar. type the name of the software or movie or what ever u want and press enter. then u will see alot of similar files but try those files who have Dark full green square box on the right side. means those files have good health to download. after clicking on that file u will se alot of web sites offering ur required file. click on the first one always. from that site clicl on "download this torrent" and save that file on ur harddisk. after that close all web sites. now open utorrent client and click on add torrent. now give it the path of that file which u have downloaded from site and click ok. Now downloading will be started. It depends on the seeds. As many u have speed as much u have download speed. Hope My Answer will HELP U OUT TO USE TORRENT
Other Answers (5)
You will need to download a tracker file, the most easiest way is to go to your Internet search engine and type torrent. A number of torrent search engines will appear, pick one and use the search function of that page to find the file you need to download, and open it in peer-2-peer torrent program. The program should start looking for available peers to download from.
theres alot of torrent sites, :P its pretty illegal man but if ur using it for like trailers and stuff its ok but use it at ur own risk. there are plenty of links out there. go on google and type torrent spy <- should be the first link try www.piratebay.org as well. These are good sites to download the mirrors on utorrent. [save and drag it in utorrent] then leave ur computer overnight or something
Utorrent and Torrent sites are not illegal. Uploading and downloading copywritten software IS illegal. There are torrent sites you vist, search for your desired torrent download it and open it with Utorrent. it then connects to other people (seeds) who have the same file and downloads from multiple people simultaneously.
Sites to visit are mininova.org, torrentreactor.net, thepiratebay.org and isohunt.com

San Bernardino County Sheriff, John McMahon talks to the media during a news conference about the search for the fired Los Angeles police officer. Law enforcement officials spent all night searching the snowy mountains of Southern California in searching for the ex-officer, who threatened to bring "warfare" to the Los Angeles Police Department and went on a shooting rampage that left a policeman and two others dead.

- Somalia Extremists Urge Attacks on U.S. Malls
The absolutely bizarre case of a former LAPD officer turned Evil Rambo has resulted in Southern California law enforcement taking extreme measures to both protect themselves and run down this mutant marauder. As of Friday morning, he had killed three people – one of them a Riverside (Calif.) PD officer. The Riverside officer and his partner were ambushed, demonstrating a willingness to go on the offensive and turn the "police into prey." Officers from hundreds of agencies in multiple states and two countries are now actively looking for him while doing everything reasonably possible to protect themselves.
What does he want? He says he just wants his name back. Well, you won't even find his name in this editorial because he's not worth the ink it would take to print it. This guy is a nut case, he's worthless and LAPD was obviously right to jettison him back in 2008. By the way, let's note that he's been out of an LAPD uniform longer than he spent wearing one.
Claims of knowing all the wrongdoings and weaknesses of LAPD are questionable at best. Unfortunately, there will be those (even some who wear a badge) who will give a degree of credence to his ramblings. I'll simply say this: LAPD has come a long way since the days of Rodney King and Rampart. They went through some tough times and their problems were made very public. Today, the agency does an incredible job in policing one of the most diverse and challenging cities on earth with a police force that is a fraction of that seen in other areas of the country. Having worked with some long-term LAPD personnel, I know their dedication runs deep and their commitment to serve is solid.
As for the takeaways from this self-proclaimed crusade by a crazy former cop:
1) There's a reason that psychological screening is an important part of law enforcement and we should use it and continue to look for ways to increase its effectiveness. Cops have awesome responsibilities, and they must be fit to serve—physically and psychologically.
2) Organizations have to purge their problems and continually look for ways to improve. As a profession, we have to learn from our mistakes. As my friend Gordon Graham says, you either constantly improve or you backslide. There's no standing still in this life.
3) When the going gets tough, the cops engage. I know many of the people involved in the effort to take this guy down and I have the greatest respect for them and what they're doing. They will get him.
4) Remember the basics: Armor works, but only if you wear it. Continually re-evaluate your situation and consider W.I.N. – What's Important Now? And, when dealing with a situation like this, you need to invoke W.I.N. II– What's Important Next? Finally, remember that complacency really does kill. My thoughts are with those who are searching for this menace—be safe.
It remains to be seen how this will end. If I could write the final chapter, it would end right now, with no more victims and a beaten bad guy.

Police impersonator busted for trafficking
A man who impersonated a police officer was arrested at an immigration checkpoint in Mae Sot district in Tak on Thursday for smuggling illegal workers.
- Published: 21/03/2013 at 07:46 PM
- Newspaper section: breakingnews
Pol Col Pongnakhon Nakhonsantiparp, chief of the Mae Sot immigration office, said policemen found five illegal immigrants in Piyapong Srisohpha's vehicle as he was driving through a checkpoint, according to Post Today.
The man wore a police uniform and falsely claimed that he was a police captain who works for the Provincial Police Region 5 by using a fake identification card.
Police officers were not convinced and later found out that Mr Piyapong was an impostor, Pol Col Pongnakhon said.
Mr Piyapong confessed he was a fish and shrimp farm owner who suffered a big loss when the 2011 flood disaster hit Pathum Thani. One of his Burmese workers persuaded him to smuggle illegal workers from the Thai-Myanmar border to Bangkok.
He earned 10,000 baht for each illegal immigrant, Mr Piyapong added.
The man was charged with transporting and concealing illegal aliens and impersonating a police officer. He was taken into custody at the Mae Sot police station for further legal proceedings.

Ozzie Takes on Larger Role at Microsoft
Ozzie will broaden his current role as CTO to assume responsibility for the development of software-based services across Microsofts newly formed core business divisions: Platforms and Services; Business; and Entertainment and Devices, as announced by Microsoft Corp. officials on Tuesday, in a statement.
Ozzie joined Microsoft in March with Redmonds acquisition of his company, Groove Networks Inc.
"Hes a perfect guy to do this, I always said Microsoft got a great deal when they invested in Groove," said Robert Mahowald, program director for research firm IDC, in Framingham, Mass.
"Ray Ozzie has technical credibility and is an excellent guy to revamp Microsoft as they look at competing with companies like Citrix, Salesforce.com, and WebEx," said Mahowald.
"He can help bring coherence for customers who want to look at Microsoft products in a way they can pay, for example, on a per-user basis."
Mahowald said the overall reorganization seems to mirror Microsofts evolving business.
"Microsofts consumer business now accounts for 30 percent of its revenue.
It makes sense to have that element of its business with Xbox and Windows Mobile and other consumer pieces raised to the same level as Windows Server System and Office," he said.

Other industry insiders agreed that Ozzies experience will bring strength to Microsofts services strategy.
"The thing about Groove was that it had a business model that embodied software-as-a-service, that was fundamental to the way the capabilities it provided were delivered. So I think he has a real understanding of not just collaboration and targeting the audience for Groove, but also the broader strategic issue of what is that business model exactly that allows Microsoft to make money off services," said Mike Gilpin, vice president and research director, for Forrester Research Inc., in Cambridge, Mass.
Gilpin was not surprised to see Ozzie taking on a larger role in the company.
"I was at a financial analysts meeting in July in Redmond, and Microsoft traditionally has a session on that day when Gates speaks to the group. But I was surprised that it wasnt just Bill by himself, it was Bill and Ray talking and having a panel discussion.
"You could tell they had good chemistry, and that leads me to believe thats a factor behind this, that Bill really trusts Ray to invigorate Microsofts strategy, to move beyond the CTO role and to look at in this new purview of how can Microsoft more effectively compete with the likes of Google," said Gilpin.

Religious writings that have been accepted as books of the Bible by some groups but not by others. The Roman Catholic Church, for example, includes seven books, such as Judith, I and II Maccabees, and Ecclesiasticus, in the Old Testament that Jews and Protestants do not consider part of the Bible. Some churches may read the Apocrypha for inspiration but not to establish religious doctrine.
Note: By extension, an "apocryphal" story is one that is probably false but nevertheless has some value.

Diplomatic Correspondent
NEW DELHI: "We will spare no effort to restore Afghanistan's historical role as a land bridge connecting the surrounding regions," Afghan President Hamid Karzai said at the second regional economic conference on the landlocked nation.
"We also recognise that Afghanistan's stability is an asset for the region, whereas an unstable Afghanistan will undoubtedly put the vision of a peaceful and prosperous region in jeopardy," Mr. Karzai said on Saturday.
According to him, there were many factors from the fragility of security, to inadequate physical infrastructure, to inconsistent policies which play to the detriment of regional economic cooperation.
The President argued that the presence of international military forces in Afghanistan had been critical not only to the fight against terrorism and rebuilding security institutions in the country, but also contributedto the security of the entire region.
"To those of our partners who may be pondering their continued involvement in Afghanistan, I say the job is not over and the stakes are still very high," he said.
"The war we are collectively fighting against international terrorism cannot be won with hesitation and uncertainty. To win this war, we need enduring partnership of solid and unwavering allies," Mr. Karzai said.

Previously, AM General acted solely as the vehicle assembler for VPG. Following this transaction, AM General will own and operate the MV-1 business.
The agreement creates a path to revitalize VPG and form a new company called Mobility Ventures LLC, which will acquire the assets of VPG. Production, sales and product development of the MV-1 is expected to resume in approximately 45 days, with AM General bringing more than 50 years of experience and knowledge in the automotive industry to the benefit of passengers who rely on specialty vehicles, such as the MV-1.
Assembly of the vehicles will continue to occur at AM General's world-class, 675,000 square-foot Commercial Assembly Plant in Mishawaka, Ind., which is fully tooled for the MV-1 and ready to resume vehicle assembly.
AM General has also begun planning with the more than 100 suppliers of the MV-1 to support the accelerated restart of production and sales. It is anticipated that resumption of MV-1 production and sales will stimulate the creation of hundreds of new jobs.
While this transaction is being finalized, AM General will continue to provide service parts and technical support to the network of more than 80 MV-1 dealers and distributors throughout the U.S. and Canada.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more recent discussion of Tomac Bikes. Granted, they've had a storied past given the ABG ownership, but Joel Smith and Co, the new owners, are 100% committed to the brand. We recently picked up Tomac. I've been impressed with every aspect of the operation. The frames are sweet - well made with good attention to detail. Joel, Clarke, and Carrie at Tomac have been great to deal with as well.
We just got this Tomac Carbide SL built up. I was pretty stoked to see how well it came together. I was kinda jealous of Chris when he pedaled away on it .
Any other new school Tomacs out there? Let's see 'em!

A direct access storage device, or DASD, is a secondary storage device in mainframe computers that has low access time for all of its capacity. The term DASD was introduced by IBM to describe disk drives, magnetic drums, and data cells. The direct access capability of those devices was quite different than that of sequential access used in tape drives because it required a substantially long time to access a distant point in a medium. IBM computers access devices through channels, which are...

A dress photo could mean big online business for a UK retailer
Women's clothing brand Roman Originals has been inundated by calls since the photo became the center of an online debate.

Site search and merchandising technology incorporating more analytics and help from product reviews and content is refining merchandising.
Prior to June 2006, finding the right item at DelightfulDeliveries.com, an online retailer of gift baskets, could be daunting. A search for cookies, for example, would return 39 pages with more than 460 products.
But all that changed when Delightful Deliveries Inc. began using software that melds site search and merchandising functions. In addition to giving shoppers the ability to search by product category, price and occasion, the software enables the retailer to link paid search and e-mail marketing campaigns and Google AdWords to customized landing pages. So a shopper who performs a Google search on cookie bouquets, for example, instead of landing on the retailer's home page goes directly
to a customized landing page featuring a seasonal selection of cookie bouquets.
"Depending upon what the customer types into the search bar," explains CEO Eric Lituchy, "besides just coming back with the relevant products we do merchandising specific to that search."
Since implementing the site search and merchandising application from Mercado Software Inc., last year conversion rates consistently have been 25% higher than corresponding months in 2005, Lituchy says. Orders per visit have increased 50% and there has been a 100% increase in units bought per visit, he adds.
Like Delightful Deliveries, many e-retailers are using site search tools to gather information about customers to boost sales through more targeted merchandising. Now they're adapting site search to tap into non-traditional search categories, such as customer product reviews and informational content, and to work with web analytics programs.
Using site search to personalize merchandising efforts is not new. In fact, the term 'searchandising' was coined several years ago to describe the concept. Many site search tools identify and fix failed searches, produce search results and navigation options most likely to lead to sales, and push products based on a retailer's other business objectives, such as increasing sales of high-margin items or reducing inventory of overstock merchandise.
But new site search products are incorporating more analytics, such as visitor behavior and clickstreams, to further refine the merchandising process, says Susan Aldrich, senior vice president at Patricia Seybold Group, a research and consulting firm that specializes in customer-centric I.T. strategy.
The push to make site search more analytical comes at a time when many Internet retailers are trying to dig deeper to get a feel for which promotions and products generate the best return on investment. "People need to know more than just how many searches they had," Aldrich says. "Can you imagine running Macys.com based on how many times people searched for perfume? How would that tell you what to promote? How does that tell you how successful your promotions are?"
In earlier forms of searchandising, a search engine would make cross-sell or upsell recommendations based on what a customer bought on an earlier visit. However, that strategy has flaws, contends Phil Braden, director of customer-facing solutions at Endeca Technologies Inc., a vendor of site search and merchandising software. For example, a customer who bought a book on Yoga might be shown Yoga merchandise every time he comes back to the site, regardless of what he is looking for on the return visit. "It may turn out that he bought that book for his sister and he doesn't like to do Yoga at all," Braden says.
Site search can fine-tune that merchandising process by making recommendations based on the customer's current search query or category navigation choice. "Search and dynamic navigation elements are a give and take, a call and response between the user and the information systems," says Joe Lichtman, director of retail product management at Fast Search and Transfer, a search technology vendor. "With each search, they're telling you more about themselves and what they're interested in."
Feeding time
To get a clearer picture of what customers are searching for, Petco Animal Supplies Inc. expanded the attribute fields in its Petco.com database from five to 58 fields when it implemented Endeca's site search tool, says John Lazarchic, vice president of e-commerce at Petco.
"We use site search to drive any aspect of what a customer wants to use to shop for the product, including traditional shopping navigation and search refinements-color, size, flavor and brand," Lazarchic says. "But we also added some unique items to that customer refinement process-the ability to either sort or refine items by customer ratings and reviews."
Petco feeds average ratings of its products generated by the Bazaarvoice Inc. customer review application into the Endeca engine to enable customers to sort products by customer ratings or reviews. The technology also has enabled an automated process that upgrades left-side navigation based on top-rated items. As products become rated better or worse, they automatically fall into or out of that top-rated category, Lazarchic explains.
"It really gives the customer the power to decide what way they want to find something," he says. "As a retailer, you tend to get stuck in your own paradigm of what you call things or how you think things should be categorized. You quickly learn that customers don't think of things in the same way you do."
At Delightful Deliveries, Mercado staff culled data from the retailer's catalog when setting up the search engine database. The data includes item number, product name, brand and price. But it added new information created by the retailer, including which gifts might be appropriate for certain occasions or recipients.
By adding even one attribute to a search query, a shopper can narrow results significantly, says Sue Chapman, senior manage of merchandising solutions at Mercado. For example, by entering a price range while searching for cookies, the results page returns 219 items, rather than the 464 products listed when simply searching for cookies. By searching for cookies to serve at a baby shower, results narrow even further. Delightful Deliveries customers also can use more complex search term combinations-for example, cookies, Mrs. Fields, baby shower-to more quickly find the product they're seeking, Chapman adds.
Similarly, Macys.com uses dynamic browse refinements that enable shoppers to narrow down choices based on specific features, such as capacity and speed for blenders or warranty length and special features for watches. Macy's, which uses Mercado software, also has implemented a feature that enables shoppers to compare the products in the shoppers' refined search results.

Ok--I have this odd memory and I think it is correct and maybe you can verify: I was pulled off of the register and placed in the "millinery" dept which included accessories like ladies hats and gloves but also lingerie. I just thought that name was either inaccurate or old-fashioned or both. I liked that department though. Do you remember a millinery department? I don't think I was ever Emp of the Month though! And what is it about being a young girl/woman working with a bunch of much older women who say just exactly what they believe? Gimbels and "Miracle on 34th Street"---I had not put the two together but of course that was where Kris Kringle sent shoppers when Macy's didn't have the product.
This is probably not true for everyone, but I worked Thanksgiving evening once, and I worked Christmas Day once, and it wasn't bad at all. Thanksgiving evening, I was ready for something to do, and I think moving around after a meal, pie, and leftovers for dinner was really good for me. Far from being miserable, most of us were in a jolly mood. It was relaxed, it was casual, and most of the shoppers were just making their lists, so it was easy time-and-a-half money. And because I volunteered to work on Thanksgiving, I got Black Friday day off! Back when there were video rentals , the place I worked stayed open on Christmas Day. To be fair, they decided everyone should work two hours so no one had to be away from their families/friends for long, and with everyone working, it was fair. I volunteered for the morning--by that time, the youngest person in my family was my nephew, and he was 12! My youngest brother was 16, I was 20, so we all slept late. A lot of the people there had families, and when I volunteered to do an extra hour from 8-11 (so did another girl who was about my age, same situation) most of the staff thanked us, as did the managers for volunteering. The few people that came in were relaxed, happy, grateful we were open. It was a really nice experience and I still felt the Christmas mood. Plus, the perks after were great. I got off both New Years and New Year's Day, and the staff was really nice to me till I went back to LSU. I got a great recommendation too. While big box stores probably don't do it this way, I think working on a holiday is fine so long as you have volunteers who want to do it, or you make everyone work very briefly. But I don't think anyone's job should be in jeopardy if they don't want to work on a federally-recognized holiday, and if the store does have to remain closed all day, then it should be closed. I don't think Big Box stores think like that
I worked in Ladies Wear for the bulk of my Kmart career (!), which included children's wear, lingerie (pretty sure it was called that) and accessories, which includes purses, socks/hosiery, gloves, belts and hats (which would be the millinery). I also worked the pet department for a time and became expert in catching escaped hamsters and birds, cash, layaway, and the service desk - yes, I actually said "Attention Kmart shoppers! We have a blue light special!" I remember fondly all the ladies -there were a bunch of Brits including one thin redhead with a thick Scots accent, an another heavily made up woman from Liverpool who sounded like the Beatles Just last night I remembered another dear - a widow who had lost her husband years earlier but had a really great attitude. She used to look forward to oldies movies on PBS on Saturday nights, accompanied by a bottle of red wine All the ladies loved to hear about boyfriends, and often gave really good advice and encouragement.
