Google celebrates 13th birthday
(Read article summary)Google rolls out a special doodle for its 13th birthday – and what a wild 13 years it's been.
Google turns 13 today. And search engine is celebrating its big day as any teenager would, with cake.
Tuesday's Google doodle shows a reveling company logo, complete with party hats and exclamation point, standing before a table full of candles and presents. The birthday banner combines two different aesthetics: a clay style that's reminiscent of a Wallace and Gromit short (a series that actually earned its own Google doodle in 2009), and the slightly faded colors of an antique photograph (further embellishing by the family-album corner catchers).
The image is actually even more appropriate than it seems. Sure, the birthday theme fits this special occasion, but its sophisticated style shows just how far Google doodles have come in 13 years.
Doodles have actually been a part of Google from the beginning. In 1998, right around when the company launched, founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin wanted to visit Burning Man, the annual festival in the Nevada desert. But the website ran on a tiny crew back then. What if the servers crashed while they were away, Brin and Page worried – no one will be there to fix things. So, the pair tweaked Google's logo: "A stick figure drawing was placed behind the 2nd "o" in the word," says the company's official history. "Google and the revised logo was intended as a comical message to Google users that the founders were 'out of office.' "

How Martinton, IL Watches TV
To learn about viewing trends and cable TV in Martinton, IL, examine habits of Americans at large. Half of the population watches some of their favorite shows online. Even though streamed content is on the rise, 97% of Americans still watch television the old fashioned way, on their TV, and 33% of people have four or more televisions in their home for watching these shows. Because so many people use both television and Internet, it is no surprise that 72% of Americans bundle their cable and Internet subscriptions. For the 367 people in Martinton, those stats equate to:
- 121 with a TV for every finger on their right hand (thumbs don't count)
- 176 who take the term 'television' show lightly (and stream instead)
- 356 keeping to traditional TV for their favorite shows
- 264 users with bundled cable subscriptions
- 305 lucky enough to have free evenings to watch live television.

I just wanted to share this. I recently did a color match for my 2010 SR5 Tacoma, I looked a lot of places for the handles before actually purchasing. I got a sport grill for a really good price on ebay, long story short I sent the same seller a message again asking about color matching handles. Ended up getting them within 48 hours after paying for them and got them for a great deal! Its a toyota dealer and listed on ebay, can get just about anything and is relishing the handles again, check it out and tell him Alex from tacomaworld sent you!!! Will post pics soon!

It's a problem as old as episode recapping itself: Naturally, with our excessive love for Archer, we'd love to recap the show, but we can't. Or won't, whatever. It doesn't exactly lend itself to plot summaries. So instead, we'll be breaking down the gags you'll need to sound smart talking about Archer at the watercooler, or first-period geometry, or the all-you-can-push smack buffet. Hey, we're not here to judge.
1. It's Sterling's Birthday
Honestly, this seemed a little out of character to us: After all, Woodhouse is usually really only incompetent in Archer's mind. Well, except the dope fiend thing.
2. The Car Has a Grappling Hook
Really, we wish for this power in all parts of our lives, from finding a parking space, to waiting for a table, to getting our boss's job...
3. "That's what I thought."
Another chapter in the genealogy of Sterling's ping-pong paddle fetish.
4. "She beat it out of me!"
Cheryl likes it...um, Cheryl is a...Cheryl's a weird one.

Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:Very easy to use (just plug it in) and if you have PS2 controllers, it's so much cheaper to buy this instead of second controller for PS3
Cons:Nothing bad so far, I just seems like PS3 recognizes adapter when you turn PS3 on even if you don't have controller plugged on it. So your main controller (PS3) might be seen as second, even if it's the only one you are currently using. No big deal since you can plug adapter on only when you need it
OtherThoughts:Nothing else to say, really. I'm very glad I bought this
Bottomline:Great product for great price

Janet has completed online and offline ID verification.
I loved staying in the hub of St. Kilda Beach and cosmopolitan lifestyle. Buses and trams are close, shops, grocery store, laundry matt, coffee shops and restaurants all in walking distance. Janet is an interesting lady with wry humour and we shared a common interest in food. Janet's lime curd is very delicious. On my last evening stay, Janet showed me around St. Kilda and gave me some background on the history of the area. Maggie and Jock Janet's two dogs are really cute and love cuddles. Good luck!
Nice and clean accommodation, nice host, nice and cute little good behaved dogs, nothing to complain about at all! I enjoyed (email hidden)lda itself is pretty worth it to stay as well. Thanks Janet!
Janet was friendly and willing to share information about St Kilda and the area. And she made very nice scones with different flavour curds!
Lovely to have met Janet and her dogs!!! Amazing location, very friendly host. Walking the dogs and local cafe trips were a treat! Will come back for sure! Thanks Janet!
Janet was extremely helpful and friendly, sharing her knowledge of australia and melbourne, and her yummy scones with lemon curd ! Thanks so making my move to aus less stressful.
I stayed with Janet for two weeks while i found and apartment, Janet was soo friendly and helpful and her two little dogs are soo cute. The location is awesome just opposite the beach and close to shops, trams and some awesome cafes.
Great location in a very nice appartment. Walking Jock and Maggie, (Janet's West Highland Terriers), along the sea front was great fun.
I wanted to be close to the beach as well as check out the historic buildings around St Kilda. I was welcomed on arrival with a cup of tea and given details as to locations of various places for dinner. On more than one occasion I joined the host for one of her walks in the evening were she mentioned some aspects of the history of St Kilda, which was great as I got the sence of community and place with my short stay due to the host being helpful and friendly. I found my accommodation very comfortable with my own bathroom. I was over for a conference on Building Sustainability for two days. It was a short 5-minute walk then catching the number 96 tram, which got me to the conference at the Convention centre. I would certainly stay again when in Melbourne next.

ComScore Announces U.S. Launch Of Validated Media Essentials™ (vME™) To Help Media Sellers Increase Advertising Inventory Sell-Through And Revenue
RESTON, Va., Nov. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- comScore, Inc. (NASDAQ: SCOR), a leader in measuring the digital world, today announced the U.S. launch of validated Media Essentials (vME), a measurement platform for media sellers designed to increase inventory sell-through and advertising revenue. This new tool, which provides a granular understanding of viewability, audience composition, and ad engagement for inventory within a publisher website or network of sites, helps media sellers demonstrate their value and put their best foot forward to media buyers. vME is also instrumental in helping media sellers forecast demographics for audience guarantees in a manner consistent with how traditional offline media is sold.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080115/COMSCORELOGO)
vME enables media sellers to:
- Understand which ad slots on their websites are performing the best in terms of viewability, audience composition, and engagement (i.e. non-transient mouse-over of the ad) as well as evalute GRPs and validated GRPs generated by the site(s).
- Evaluate inventory performance according to different reporting hierarchies, such as by individual ad slots, aggregations of ad slots, entire site sections, and other customizations.
- Re-evaluate their site design, sales strategy and overall approach to advertising packaging and pricing in order to optimize yield and increase revenue.
- Create custom packages and sponsorships for clients that differentiate their offerings from competitors.
"The increased focus on viewable impressions and audience-based buying, as a result of the Making Measurement Make Sense initiative, has fundamentally altered the digital media landscape and is changing the basis on which digital ad buyers and sellers transact," said Serge Matta, President of comScore. "While advertisers have been able to leverage viewability and audience data to improve their digital marketing ROI, media sellers have rightfully demanded better tools to demonstrate the value of their high-quality inventory. With the introduction of vME, media sellers will have the metrics they need to show buyers how their inventory delivers viewable, engaging ads and GRPs to the right audiences."
To learn more about validated Media Essentials or request a live product demonstration, please visit: www.comscore.com/vME.

Not only were the lamps EXACTLY as depicted on the web site - we received the lamps extremely quickly. We are 100% satisfied customers on this order as well as all previous orders. Thank you!
THis is one of my best buys at O, It is big and tall , Beautiful colors. Excellent price. We are extremely pleased could not resist writing a review
Love the lamps on my night tables in my bedroom! They go with the decor perfectly and were exactly what I was looking for.
I needed a lamp that could hold its own beside my sleighbed headboard. This one looked great, so I ordered it, and I am so glad I did! When it arrived, it was SO much heavier than I anticipated! Nothing wimpy about this lamp! It's really much better looking in person. The lamp shade is a very unique wavy-like shape and has a great rustic quality that you can't tell from the picture. It gives off a wonderful, amber glow. The finial imitates the base in shape and material. This is a great lamp!
The stone on mine looked extremely cheap and not like the picture at all. It looked like 80% of it was covered with gray paint. Very little colorful stone showing. Was extremely disappointed by that. There was also a pretty large chip on the base.
What beautiful lamps. The shades are square with a lovely curving shape on the sides, a lovely color, warm light cinnamon that is even lovelier when lit. 3 way CFL bulbs fit perfectly in the harp. The bases are very attractive with subtle variations of the natural slate picking up the cinnamon of the shades. I ordered 2 and they look great. Assembly was easy, had to pull off the base cover to free the cord on one so I could pull it through but the covering went back into place no problem. My best buy yet fro Overstock.
Love the lamp, unfortunately the shades were to orange in color to match my furniture. I bought different shades. Sad though because the shades really make the lamps. In a couple of years, when I buy new furniture, I plan to match the shades. Yeah.

"Zabaleen" is a documentary film set in Cairo, Egypt. The film follows Mourad and his family as they struggle to survive in their home. Read more
"Zabaleen" is a documentary film set in Cairo, Egypt. The film follows Mourad and his family as they struggle to survive in their home.
About this project
**WE DID IT! We reached our initial goal!!! But it's not over yet!**
We still have time to continue to raise funds.
DONATIONS MADE NOW ARE NO LESS IMPORTANT THAN ONES MADE BEFORE THE GOAL. Every dollar counts. The more we raise, the more we can do with the film!
Thank you all so much for all of your support!
-Justin, Carrie, and Lauren
"Zabaleen" (or "Garbage Collector") is the story of Mourad and his family. Mourad and his sons are garbage collectors and all of the families income is generated by the garbage they collect each day. They live on the outskirts of Cario called Manshayet Nasser (or more commonly known as "Garbage City").
Manshayet Nasser is home to about 70,000 people. No matter their religion, they are all the same. They are all garbage collectors. They all live off of the 15,000 tons of garbage produced by Cairo's 17.8 million residents daily.
This film chronicles the daily life and hardships faced by Mourad and his family of 11. The massive obstacles put forth by their government, religious tensions, and a looming revolution that will change their lives forever.
This is a story of patience, love, and resilience.
We have launched this Kickstarter campaign in order to raise money to complete the film. Your contribution will help us to go to the final phases of the film. With your support, we will be able to complete this film and distribute it to festivals and elsewhere.
This film has been made 100% independently and we have received no funding from any other sources.
Your identity as a donor, and how much you donated, will not be shared publicly on the Kickstarter campaign page if you do not wish.
If our goal of $15,000 isn't met before the deadline, we don't receive any of the pledges. Your credit or debit card will not be charged.
We can accept funding from all over the world, and if we receive more than $15,000--the excess will go into distribution costs. The more we raise, the more resources we will have to make the best impact we can with this film.
Producer, Lauren McCarthy, visited Manshayet Nasser in 2006. With her roots in Documentary Photography, she saw a beauty in the area that was often over looked. The vibrant colors, the neatly organized piles of plastic yellow chairs, and the faces of the people- the area spoke to her.
In 2009, she met Carrie Vermillion (Producer) and Justin Kramer (Director and Cinematographer) and told them about the area. After doing countless hours of research on the area, they decided to go and begin filming the stories of the people who inhabit Manshayet Nasser.
Through arranged interviews and chance meetings, we stumbled upon Mourad and his family. We were instantly drawn to them. Even though they lived in the smallest, most rundown house in the area, they were rich with more passion and love than anyone we had met.
They invited us into their homes and after a few meetings, we were a part of the family. Mourad opened up about everything from marriage to the impending doom of the zabaleen living in Manshayet Nasser.
During these meetings, we uncovered tales of extreme hardship and trials that were jeopardizing the livelihood of Mourad and his family. His perseverance and attitude toward the survival of his family touched us very deeply.
After 2 and a half years of filming, a story of perseverance in the face of the most intense adversity shone through. Its a story of survival and a universal tale of a man who would stop at nothing to save his family and the home they shared.
If you have any questions about "Zabaleen", please feel free to email us at anytime via Kickstarter or emailing us directly at email@example.com.

- From Janet at 1/5/2015 5:09 PM
- To dehydrate the grains again would a regular home dehydrator work and does your instruction kit include specifics on how to do this?
Initially I asked and you responded as follows:
Sometimes I go abroad for 4 to 6 weeks. Obviously I cannot take the culture with me. How would it best be stored so I can reactivate it on my return?
Milk kefir grains can be stored in milk in the fridge for up to 3 weeks (use an airtight lid). Unless you can find someone to change the milk while you're gone, you should plan to dehydrate the grains and rehydrate them again when you return
- Take a non-metal casserole dish and lay a piece of parchment or waxed paper on the bottom. Spread out your grains on the paper in a single layer. Put a light towel or cheesecloth over the casserole dish (not touching the grains) so the grains can dry out at room temperature without getting flies/debris on them. It may take a few days, but once they are dry, put them in a baggie or jar and store them in a cool pantry or fridge. They should keep for 6 months.

- From Karen at 8/11/2014 9:03 PM
- I would like to place an order. I am currently in Kentucky for an extended stay. My home is in Ohio. Delivery address is a UPS box. Our mail is only picked up once a week. Will the kefir grains last up to 2 weeks in a mail box?
- Although the grains are shelf stable for several weeks, during the summer months It is not advisable to order them if you are unable to retrieve them upon delivery. Heat will damage the grains, even though they are dehydrated. Unless you are certain the UPS facility can maintain its room temperature, it's best to send them to an address where the recipient can get the package, and then refrigerate it until you return. Or, you can wait to place your order.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Shirley at 6/24/2014 9:03 AM
- Is organic raw milk appropriate for making kefir?
- The grains work very well in raw milk but they must be rehydrated in pasteurized milk and a gradual introduction to raw milk is recommended. You will find instructions for the transition to raw milk here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/introducing-milk-kefir-grains-raw-milk

- From don winthrop at 2/6/2014 4:47 PM
- Is the kefir grains for using in milk different then the water ones?
- Yes, milk kefir grains and water kefir grains are two different cultures, each with its own set of bacteria and yeast. Milk grains require lactose from milk to survive, while water kefir depends on nutrients from cane sugar and water.

- Very vigorous culture Review by Loreli Reese
Quality Price Value I picked Cultures for Health over less expensive options because I figured I would be paying for quality backed up by customer service and reputation. I liked the quality of the information given and the patience of the staff in chat.
I was not disappointed. I was worried that my culture might not thrive, but quickly it activated to the point that I needed to back up my grains, as I couldn't afford to buy that much milk every day. Within a month and a half a good 3/4 of my purchased grains needed to be dried for backup, and just one small and very active grain thickens six cups of kefir very well every 24 hours. Awesome.(Posted on 3/4/2015)
- Very Satisfied Review by krisakson
Quality Price Value I have been using the milk kefir grains for about a month now. I use 1% organic milk and the kefir tastes great. My husband makes kefir smoothies every morning, I use it to replace buttermilk in recipes(bread, pancakes). I have also been hanging it to separate the whey (breadmaking) and use the thickened kefir like sour cream. We use about 3 quarts a week of kefir a week. I have already shared grains with a friend. Thanks for a great product!

- Excellent customer service Review by Barb
Quality Price Value Customer service is excellent. I was having very good results with my kefir grains until I transitioned them to raw milk without following the guidelines. I plan to buy more products from this company.

- I would buy this starter kit again Review by C
Quality Price Value Before purchasing the Milk Starter Kit I watched the "How to" videos and read the "How to" information links provided on the Cultures for Health website. I purchased the proper milk, and whatever else I needed. When the kit was on it's way to my home I got a little nervous, being my first attempt at fermenting so I used the easy "Leave a Message" service at the bottom of the screen to ask additional questions. I was helped immediately. I was making more of a fuss than the project called for :) The kit arrived right on time. I put everything together following the easy instructions and we enjoy delicious kefir every morning. It's been a great and rewarding experience. Thank you Cultures for Health.

- just buy the milk grains alone Review by Joey C.
Quality Price Value I cannot recommend this kit. The booklet that comes with it is convenient to have, but contains recipes and information that is easily found on this web site. Also included is the general instructions sheet (you don't need the booklet).
The biggest issue I have is the 3.5" strainer that came with the kit. (and this was the reason I bought the kit - to get a strainer) It is too big for the wide mouth mason jars, and the mesh is too fine to strain the kefir (you must put very small amounts of kefir into it and force it through the fine mesh - time consuming and messy). Save some money and buy the grains alone,
CFH Note: The 3.5" mesh strainer is perfect for trapping even the smallest baby grain. A silicone or rubber spatula can be used to gently stir the kefir in the strainer to speed up the straining process A canning funnel can be used with the strainer for easy straining into wide mouth or regular mouth canning jars, the strainer sits on top of the funnel.
If you are having any problems, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com for assistance.(Posted on 2/23/2015)
- Great but slow start Review by Becky
Quality Price Value They arrived in good condition. Instructions were good. For some reason the kefir is not getting thick. It stays rather chilly in my house about 68 and it is hard to find a warm place to put the grains. My husband does not like that I am culturing kefir so I can't leave it out on the fridge or out someway. It is beginning to get better but I think it is the temperature of the house. I am happy with the cultures and they have matured to look like grains I have seen online. I recommend cultures for health to anyone who will listen. I also really appreciate the videos on your site which I watched more than once to make sure I was doing things right.
Response from CFH: Temperature is very important when starting any culture. For tips on keeping cultures warm, please see our article with tips for culturing in cool weather: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/cold-weather-winter-care-starter-cultures-foods/(Posted on 2/20/2015)
- Kefir at last! Review by Debbie
Quality Price Value It took me quite some time to rehydrate the kefir grains. I definitely would recommend using a type of heat source if you are doing this during the cold winter months. After 4 weeks I finally have some good kefir. Will have to experiment with different flavors and uses. Thanks for the support and help from your knowledgeable staff.

- Excellent Kefir Review by Nance
Quality Price Value I have now finished switching my keifer grains over to raw Jersey milk. My kefir is thick and delicious. I didn't experience any problems along the way and did not require any support. The video and written instructions were clear and very helpful. I am looking forward to making the soft cheese.

- I'm in love with milk kefir! Review by Kathy
Quality Price Value Bought the milk kefir kit and glad I did because I needed another plastic strainer. I've been making water kefir and we love it! Couldn't wait to try making milk kefir. My first grains worked fine for about two weeks and then quit. Talked to Anita by email a few times. She made several suggestions but I just couldn't get the grains to thicken the milk. I think my problem was that although I was using organic milk (Horizons) it is ultra-pasteurized (which is why it has a shelf-life of two months!). I started using just plain pasteurized milk and have had no problems. I will eventually use raw milk when I can locate it around here. Love using kefir as a buttermilk replacement in baking and the cheese is great for making ranch dip and dressing! We don't drink smoothies much, but I know they are very tasty made with fresh fruit and berries. I am so glad I tried milk kefir!

- excellent product,shipping support Review by Cat
Quality Price Value I'm completely satisfied and will recommend this website & company. I'm amazed and enjoying the process of making kefir it's fun. I'd say buy the kit & dive in. I'll be trying some heirloom yogurt next.
(Posted on 2/7/2015)
- Excellent service and great product! Review by BTurner
Quality Price Value My first batch of kefir was easy and excellent. I am excited to make more and to try other products! Thanks for a great experience and an introduction to a wonderful health benefit.

- Met expectations Review by Sharon
Quality Price Value This is my first time fermenting. The starter kit is perfect for people like me. I had to be patient waiting for the grains to "wake up" as it is the middle of winter and our kitchen is on the cool side. My kefir is delicious! Thank you for all the information and encouragement on the website. It gave me the confidence I needed to get started.

- love the kefir! Review by Don
Value Quality Price The grains shipped quickly and I had no trouble getting it to start up. I've only been making milk kefir for 12 days now and it's going very well. Sometimes too well. My kefir was getting made too quickly for the amount that I wanted to drink. And it tended to be too thick since the organic dairy I was using has all Jersey cows who make very creamy milk. So I switched to 2% milk of theirs and put the culture for a time in a 60 degree room to slow it down a little and now it's going fine for me. I easily get two pints a day and have started drinking more kefir. I like it with vanilla and stevia in it. My stomach likes it better than the yogurt I had been eating every day. The support is top-flight. Very easy to get help which I've done twice now. Wonderful company.

- My First Kefir Grains Review by Terrie
Value Quality Price A quality product and the instructions were simple. My grains performed well after a few days. I'm single and had to put them on "vacation" for a few days because I couldn't consume that much kefir! But, it's been a fun and wonderful experience. I'm just learning and am sure I'll make kefir for a long time to come. Good product and worth the price.
(Posted on 1/6/2015)
- Great for beginner Review by Jaz
Value Quality Price This kit is a great place to start. I have been buying kefir for my kids for 2 years because my son wouldn't drink milk. I have now been making my own kefir and flavoring it with blueberry juice and a little maple syrup. I love how easy it is and my kids love it. I barely get any, because they ask for as I am straining out the grains. The grains are doing very well after 4 or 5 days of re-hydrating. We now do 3 cups of milk every 24 hours.
(Posted on 11/29/2014)
- Good product Review by kefircito
Value Quality Price it took me about 5 days to activate the grains, now that they are active, i am drinking it almost every day.
What I have seen is that you better start small, meaning that it's not good to start fermenting 4 cups right after the activation, I've been doing 1.5 cups every time, and it's been the best way for me.
The 4 cup thing hasn't worked that well for me, I guess you need the grains to be more plentiful, and then to try the 4 cup at once.
Response from CFH: We include enough milk kefir grains to culture up to 4 cups of milk once the grains are fully activated. Please contact Customer Support for troubleshooting assistance before discarding any products.(Posted on 11/20/2014)
- Good product. Am recommending it to friends. Review by Patty
Value Quality Price Only one suggestion. We travel and it's really difficult to take the kefir with us. What can we do to preserve it (not kill it) if we are going to be gone a few days. Can I put it in the refrigerator to slow it down or do I just get a "babysitter"?
CFH Note ~ For short term storage, put the grains in fresh milk and store them in the fridge using an airtight lid You will find additional information on storage here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/how-to-take-a-break-from-making-kefir(Posted on 11/10/2014)
- best money I ever spent Review by littledove
Value Quality Price Love my milk Kefer kit. Was very nervous about using it at first but when I got the hang of it, "easy as pie". Hope I never have to do without Kefir. Thank you for being patient with me about all my questions.

- Why was I ever buying Milk Kefir!?!? Review by Ang
Value Quality Price This starter kit is amazing. I've been making my own Kefir all month and I can't believe I was paying so much for store bought Kefir. Then last week I read an article that outlined that the claims on the brand of Kefir I had been buying for years were inaccurate. I just feel better knowing where the ingredients in the food my family eats came from. This starter kit makes it so easy.
(Posted on 10/20/2014)
- Outstanding! Review by gfloyd61
Value Quality Price Within 3 days of the grains arriving, I had amazing kefir by the quart. The included instructions and videos on the site are invaluable. You just have to really try to mess this process up. I like to let it go longer occasionally as the curds & whey are amazing too. Such a versatile product. I never dreamed you could do this with homogenized/pasteurized milk. Thank you CulturesForHealth!!!

Could this be the cause of the edema? It has gotten progressively worse to the point that I can't walk without pain. Is this dangerous? Thank you.

Grand Forks is located along the U.S. 2 east-west highway corridor at the Minnesota border. It is the home of the University of North Dakota, the state's oldest and largest institute of higher learning. The downtown area is typically Midwestern with small shops and an assortment of mostly brick commercial buildings. Primary industries are related to the university or agriculture—the Red River Valley location contains some of the most fertile land in the world—and the Grand Forks Air Force Base adds to the economy. There are some new high tech and research organizations mainly connected with the university. Employment is steady but not projected to grow rapidly. A devastating flood in 1997 and the gradual economic and population decline of the region as a whole hurt the economy, and prior to the flood, outward migration to suburbs primarily south and west were also taking a toll on downtown. But subsequent rebuilding did bring some life back into the city. A just-completed massive new dike system eliminated some older more vulnerable neighborhoods and provided plenty of new waterfront open space, and some repurposed older buildings and new high rises are bringing in new commercial and residential activity. There are a few college-town amenities lying mostly west of town near the campus, but the closest big city is across the border in Winnipeg. Because of its northern Great Plains location and lack of moderating land features, Grand Forks has 55 days below zero—the nation's second highest number. Aside from that, the absence of strong negatives brings a relatively healthy ranking.
Grand Forks and its sister city East Grand Forks, Minnesota, straddle the northward-flowing Red River, which divides North Dakota and Minnesota. The Red River Valley is flat and shallow and subject to frequent spring flooding. The Red River Valley is windswept year-round, with frequent arctic outbreaks common in the winter months. Snow covers the ground from mid-December through late March, yet winters are highly variable. November through February is cloudy 75% of the time. Average winter snowfall is 40 inches. Summer months are typically warm—but not hot—and humid with frequent thunderstorms. Most precipitation occurs in the late spring through mid-summer thunderstorm season. Annual temperature variations are dramatic, with record lows below –40[dg]F and record highs of 110[dg]F. First freeze is late September, last is early May.

Chelsea Clinton may follow in her parents' footsteps after all. After years of shooting down rumors that she may run for office, the 32-year-old Clinton left the door open to having another Clinton on the electoral ballots.
"Before my mom's campaign I would have said no," Clinton said in an interview published in the latest issue of Vogue magazine. "And now I don't know. . ."
"If there were to be a point where it was something I felt called to do and I didn't think there was someone who was sufficiently committed to building a healthier, more just, more equitable, more productive world?" Clinton continued. "Then that would be a question I'd have to ask and answer."
Clinton, who married investment banker Mark Mezvinsky in 2010, said that after the media circus surrounding her wedding, she realized that her celebrity was either "something I could continue to ignore or it was something I could try to use to highlight causes that I really cared about," she told Vogue.
"Historically I deliberately tried to lead a private life in the public eye," she said. "And now I am trying to lead a purposefully public life."
The only daughter of former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said people have been pestering her about running for office her entire life.
"It was something I had thought a lot about because people have been asking me that my whole life," Clinton said. "Even during my father's 1984 gubernatorial campaign, it was, 'Do you want to grow up and be governor one day?' No. I am four."
At her age, Bill Clinton already held public office, serving as Arkansas attorney general from age 31. But it was not until age 54 that her mom first stepped into elected office as a U.S. senator.
"I believe that there are many ways for each of us to play our part," Clinton told Vogue. "For a very long time that's what my mom did. And then she went into elected public life. Her life is a testament to the principle that there are many ways to serve."

Customer Service in Cloud World
All this gets serious when you move from buying a gift or tracking a business relationship to teaching and learning, which may be the most important thing we have to do today.
I've written before about Moore's Law of Training, my point being that there is no such thing. We learn only as fast as we learn, and we teach only as fast as the student before us can absorb the subject. So how do you create a Massive Open Online Course, or MOOC, that has validity as a learning experience, no matter how good the teacher?
What you find is that you have to build an immense human infrastructure behind the performance. People have to write quizzes, they have to write Frequently Asked Questions for each section, they have to organize virtual or in-person tutoring sessions, they have to find a way to go one-on-one with students who need extra help. The cost of all this dwarfs the actual cost of building and teaching the course.
The same thing happens whenever you try to layer customer service onto a cloud application. You're trying to put running boards and training wheels on a Maserati. There are some private companies like Kana Software that see opportunity here, and claim to deliver "multichannel customer service," databases that can be used by clients and phone reps.
But the same software also gets lost in the weeds of trying to analyze what people are saying about you on social networks, or analyzing customer interactions after they've happened, when it might be better to get things right in the first place. It's this tension between the instant gratification of cloud and the clunky interaction of real human beings that may be the biggest challenge facing the new Cloud World, and the biggest frustration for those of us back here on Planet Earth. At the time of publication the author had positions in IBM and GOOG.

text: Hamilton was one stop on our week-long spring break tour of colleges in the northeast - 6 schools in 5 days. I basically pulled this place out of Tripadvisor. Unable to find pricing anywhere online, even on their entry on the hamiltonny.com website. So I ended up emailing the owner (Paula) less than 2 weeks before our planned mid-week arrival.... More

Promising striker Gavin Massey has returned to Watford after picking up an injury on his loan spell at Yeovil, who continue their interest.
The forward, who scored three times during his stay in Somerset, only extended his temporary deal with the Glovers last week.
However, after picking up a hamstring injury new Yeovil manager Gary Johnson decided he did not want to spend money on a player who would not be involved on matchday and Massey has therefore gone back to his parent club.
Johnson told the Western Gazette: "We needed to make sure that if we brought in a loan, another loan had to move out because we had five already.
"If he is not going to play here he is going to cost us more and that was another situation we found ourselves in.
"We wished him well and, because he is a young player, we will keep an eye on him."
