The genus Corchorus probably originates from Africa, with a secondary centre of diversity in the Indo-Burmese region. Corchorus tridens is widespread over tropical Africa and is also found in Nepal, Pakistan, India and Northern Australia. In Africa it occurs from Senegal in the west, east to Somalia and south to South Africa; it has been recorded for many countries. It is occasionally tolerated as a wild vegetable in crop fields with selective weeding, or grown in home gardens. It has some importance as a vegetable in Benin, Cameroon, Kenya, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria and South Africa. |

The leaves are used as a vegetable in stews eaten with starchy staple foods, and in soups and sauces. They taste more bitter than those of Corchorus olitorius L., the more commonly cultivated Jew's mallow. Cooked leaves become mucilaginous and this drawing property is accentuated by addition of the filtrate of ashes. In West Africa and Malawi the plant has been used for its stem fibres, e.g. for fishing lines and rough cordage. Corchorus tridens is grazed by livestock. |

Corchorus tridens is utilized locally where it is collected as spontaneous vegetable in fallow land or where it is grown in home gardens and occasionally sold at the market. There are no statistical data, nor is there any international trade. |

The composition of Corchorus tridens is probably comparable to that of Corchorus olitorius. 'Adulteration' Okra and other Corchorus species are used in the same way: the cultivated Corchorus olitorius L. and the wild species Corchorus asplenifolius Burch., Corchorus fascicularis Lam., Corchorus trilocularis L. and Corchorus aestuans L. |

Annual herb up to 1 m tall, usually erect and branched; stems reddish, fibrous and tough, often somewhat woody. Leaves alternate, simple; stipules setaceous, up to 1 cm long; petiole up to 1.5(–2.5) cm long; blade narrowly ovate to lanceolate or narrowly elliptical, 2.5–10(–12) cm × 0.5–3(–4.5) cm, rounded and with setaceous appendages up to 1 cm long at base, rounded, acuminate or acute at apex, margin serrate or crenate, sparsely pubescent, usually non-shiny and pale green, 3(–5)-veined from the base. Inflorescence a 1–4-flowered leaf-opposed fasciculate cyme, bracteate. Flowers bisexual, regular, usually 5-merous, shortly stalked; sepals free, narrowly elliptical to narrowly obovate, 3–5 mm long; petals free, narrowly obovate to narrowly oblanceolate, 4–5 mm long, yellow, caducous; stamens up to 20; ovary superior, 3-celled, style short. Fruit a slender cylindrical capsule up to 4 cm long and up to 2 mm wide, slightly ribbed, with 3 small spreading horns at apex, dehiscing by 3 valves, many-seeded. Seeds cylindrical, often somewhat quadrangular, c. 1.5 mm long, dark brown. |

The genus Corchorus comprises an uncertain number of species, with estimates ranging from 40–100. Corchorus tridens can be easily identified by the 3 small horns at the top of the slender capsules, which split at maturity with 3 valves. It seems closest to Corchorus aestuans, but this species has winged fruits. |

The plants grow rapidly in the rainy season and flowering occurs about 6 weeks after germination. The first leaves can be picked at about 40 days after sowing. Flowering occurs continuously and seeds mature at 90–110 days from sowing. Fruiting plants can be found throughout the year. |

Corchorus tridens occurs in savanna, woodland and scrub vegetation, and often grows as a weed. It can be found up to 1700 m altitude, but is generally grown below 700 m. It is a hot season vegetable in dry areas. It is collected in the lowland African tropics throughout the year. Although it thrives best during the rainy season, it is rather drought resistant. It can tolerate a month without rainfall, but irrigation improves growth and yields. It also tolerates a high level of rainfall but is very sensitive to excess water when young. Favourable temperatures range from 22–35°C and diurnal variations within this bracket encourage leaf development. Corchorus tridens can be grown in a range of soil types but well-drained, alluvial or sandy loams are preferable. A soil pH of 6.5–7 is favourable, but it tolerates a pH between 5.5–8.5. |

Corchorus tridens is predominantly collected from the wild and only occasionally cultivated. In cultivation, the same technology may be applied as for Corchorus olitorius. Seeds are sown directly on well-prepared, manured beds at the beginning of the wet season, broadcast or drilled in rows spaced at 20–30 cm. The seed rate is about 5 g per 10 m2. The plants are thinned to 20 plants per m2. Germination may be poor due to seed dormancy, but a short immersion in boiling water or soaking overnight in warm water speeds up germination and makes it less erratic. The seeds retain their viability for 8–12 months when stored in well-sealed jars. |

Weeding must be done early; thinning is done prior to the first harvest. Supplementary irrigation in a drought period is beneficial. Organic fertilizer may be applied at up to 20 kg per 10 m2 bed. A basal application with NPK, e.g. at 200 g per 10 m2, followed by a side dressing with nitrogenous fertilizer is recommended for optimum yield. |

Major diseases include wilting by Sclerotium rolfsii and leaf spot by Cercospora corchori. Corchorus tridens is susceptible to red spider mites (Tetranychus urticae), yellow mites, leaf beetles (Podagrica sjostedji), sweet potato butterfly (Acraea acerata and Acraea terpsichore) and root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.). |

About 40 days after sowing, when the plants have made adequate foliage, harvesting is done every fortnight by topping leafy shoots. Harvesting stops when the plants are about 80 days old, when no new leaves are formed. Topping encourages branching and hence gives a higher yield. As flowering occurs concurrently with new leaf formation, flowers of leafy shoots are removed. Fruits become brown when mature and are harvested before shattering the seeds; they are threshed and winnowed to obtain seeds for sowing. |

The leaf yield is about 5–8 kg per 10 m2 and is much reduced during the dry cool season. |

Corchorus tridens is widespread and occurs in anthropogenic habitats, and thus does not seem liable to genetic erosion. There are no germplasm collections. |

Corchorus tridens is an interesting vegetable in dry environments, occurring spontaneously, but it can also be cultivated in home gardens. Seeds are easily procured and stored. It is a well-liked vegetable, easily preserved as dried leaf, nutritious and important in food security policy. Germplasm collection and research of Corchorus tridens should be promoted. However, in peri-urban cultivation it cannot compete with the higher yielding Corchorus olitorius. |

Vol. XXXVI
No. 49 December 09, 2012 |
Swadesh Dev Roye AT
the initiative of the World
Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU) and with its cooperation,
the Workers' House
of Iran hosted an international trade union conference of
representatives of trade
unions in energy sector from different countries, at The
international meet was
preceded by a huge open session of the 'Workers' Parliament'
(conference) of UNDAUNTED BY WAR THREATS, ANTI-WORKER MOVES Interestingly,
during the
course of their speeches, the speakers accepted
interventions from the floor. It
is significant to note here that interventions from the
worker delegates
clearly demonstrated how Iranian people are rock-like united
in condemning the
onslaught of Other
prominent issues
which surfaced in course of intervention by worker delegates
were clear
opposition to privatisation, to the proposed anti-worker
changes in labour laws
and the menacing issue of contract labour system. The
strongly critical views
of the working class movement in the country was vividly
presented with courage
and conviction by Alireza Mahjoub, general secretary of the
Workers House of
Iran, in his recent book on the plight of workers in Iran.
Commenting on a
legislative bill, Mahjoub noted that "the plight of dispatch
and contract labour
has reached a serious point and, instead of focussing on
collective bargaining,
the proposed legislation's hidden intention is to sacrifice
these rights of the
workers in the "slaughter house of the capitalists." The
message is very loud
and clear. The working class of the country is committed to
fight and defend
the sovereignty of the country and protect its boundaries
and assets from the
threatened imperialist aggression. At the same time,
however, they are also
determined to fight the anti-worker measures of the
government in order to bail
out the capitalist class at the cost of the workers. The
international meeting
was structured into an inaugural session, a group exercise
and a concluding
session. WFTU general secretary George Mavrikos presided
over the opening
plenary and also delivered the keynote address. He strongly
condemned the
imperialist onslaughts on the Deliberations
in the
plenary session were initiated by Swadesh Dev Roye, in his
capacity as the president
of Trade Unions International (Energy). His paper was
titled, "Mobilise Workers
to Defeat Imperialist Machinations in Energy Sector." The
gist of the paper was
the In
the matter of nuclear
technology, the The
senseless and
conspiratorial IMPERIALIST
GAS SECTOR The
conference opined that
the trade union movement in energy sector must not make the
mistake to understate
the evil-intentioned The
conference noted that
only five major oil MNCs dominate the Six
countries in the Arab
region have more than 90 per cent of the oil reserves of the
world. These, in the
order of ranking, are NATURAL GAS AND REFINING As
for natural gas, almost
quarter of world energy comes from this source and
consumption has nearly
doubled in the last 30 years. Moreover, its demand is
increasing. The world's
largest natural gas reserves are in The A
very significant
development pertaining to the refining sector is worth
noting. ARAB
PEOPLE'S STRUGGLE AGAINST Liberation
of the Arab people
from imperialist powers and achieving genuine democracies
rule in the African
and After
the first plenary
session the delegates were divided into three groups on the
following subjects:
(a) Correlation between clean energy and nuclear energy (b)
Imperialism and
market driven energy policy, and (c) Workers' rights in the
new energy era. A background
note on each of the three subjects was presented to serve as
the basis for group
discussion. Each of the group leaders then presented a
report on the group
exercise in the concluding session. Finally
the meeting adopted
a Declaration which stressed the importance of energy sector
in our social life.
It strongly condemned the machinations of imperialist powers
and the monopoly
of a few giant MNCs in energy sector. Lambasting the US-EU
sanction against The
Declaration expressed
serious concern over the explosive situation in the Middle
East, with the
ongoing foreign armed intervention in Reaffirming
with the people's struggle in the region, the Declaration
extended steady
support for the Palestinian people, the people of The
Declaration concluded
with a clarion call: "We condemn the embargo against The
meeting took place at
a crucial juncture for the region. Incidentally, it also
served as the curtain
riser to the forthcoming congress of Trade Unions

The Washington Science Fiction Association is pleased to announce the finalists for the 2009 WSFA Small Press Award for Short Fiction:
"Drinking Problem" by K.D. Wentworth, published in Seeds of Change, edited by John Joseph Adams, Prime Books (August, 2008).
"Hard Rain at the Fortean Café" by Lavie Tidhar, published in issue 14 of Aeon Speculative Fiction Magazine, edited by Bridget McKenna.
"His Last Arrow" by Christopher Sequeira, published in Gaslight Grimoire: Fantastic Tales of Sherlock Holmes, edited by Jeff Campbell and Charles Prepolec, Edge Science Fiction and Fantasy Publishing, (October, 2008).
"Silent as Dust" by James Maxey, published in Orson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show, edited by Edmund R. Schubert, Hatrack Publishing.
"Spider the Artist" by Nnedi Okorafor-Mbachu, published in Seeds of Change, edited by John Joseph Adams, Prime Books (August, 2008)
"The Absence of Stars: Part 1" by Greg Siewert, published in Orson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show, edited by Edmund R. Schubert, Hatrack Publishing.
"The Toy Car" by Luisa Maria Garcia Velasco, (translated from Spanish by Ian Watson) published in April 2008 edition of Aberrant Dreams, edited by Joseph W. Dickerson.
The award honors the efforts of small press publishers in providing a critical venue for short fiction in the area of speculative fiction. The award showcases the best original short fiction published by small presses in the previous year (2008). An unusual feature of the selection process is that all voting is done with the identity of the author (and publisher) hidden so that the final choice is based solely on the quality of the story.The winner is chosen by the members of the Washington Science Fiction Association (www.wsfa.org) and will be presented at their annual convention, Capclave (www.capclave.org), held this year on October 16-18th in Rockville, Maryland.
By chance, I had already signed up as a guest at Capclave for my first time ever. Ed Schubert, the editor of IGMS who's responsible for publishing two stories on this list, had recommended the con to me several times. Lucky coincidence, or good omen?

Best .40 S&W Load for Pig?
Hello everybody. I'm going to have the opportunity to do some pig hunting this month and next month. I'll be using an SKS with 123-grain soft point bullets, and carrying my XD-40 as backup. What, in your opinion, is the most effective bullet design/weight for pigs in California? I'll be going after pigs under 175 lbs. I know .40 isn't the first choice for this job, but it's all I've got.

You'll need penetration rather more than you will expansion, if California pigs are anything like their Louisiana brethren... I'd suggest a good heavy bullet, in FMJ format, rather than a hollow-point. On the other hand, if a modicum of expansion is required, try the Remington Golden Saber 165gr. JHP - good penetration, reasonably good expansion, and perhaps a better choice than the slower 180gr. JHP's on both counts. Just my $0.02 worth...

Odds are, if you use the pistol at all, it'll be for coup-de-grace on a hog that's down but not yet dead.
If you're not taking a hurried shot at a big old sow or boar and wind up with a bad hit, and all of a sudden you find that somebody else that's bigger than you wants to do grievous bodily harm, you probably will never have to worry. Unhurt, hogs tend to work hard at being where you're not. Folks down in the Florida swamps are pretty strong in their view that the best eating is the 40-60 pound range. Doesn't mean they'll turn down a second helping off a larger hog, of course. Best luck, Art

Kester's WWE Raw Rundown: CM Punk and Ryback continue their feud, AJ is accused of sleeping with John Cena, Daniel Bryan and Kane get attacked by Rhodes Scholars, and more Oct 23, 2012 - 05:47 PM
By Ryan Kester CM Punk and Ryback CM Punk continues to be the highlight of the show. He's really come into his own as a heel and his act is a large part of what makes WWE television watchable. WWE is doing well with Ryback. They have begun to make me question if he will be going over on Sunday, which is always a good sign. I still doubt they'd move the title at this point, but it says a lot that WWE has managed to make me question that stance. John Cena and AJ I am surprised to see WWE go with this story so soon after Cena's real life divorce and accusations of infidelity. While I appreciate the way it is making the Cena act refreshing, I worry that they are doing that at the expense of some of the character's integrity. It's the same issue I had with the short-lived fling with Cena and Eve earlier in the year. If there is a positive to glean from this pairing, it's that it gave WWE an excuse to get AJ out of the GM role. I hope this means that AJ can get back to her super-crazy roots as it wasn't long ago that she had the hottest act in wrestling. Team Hell No and Rhodes Scholars While the game show segment, outside of some more classic Kane dry humor, was terrible, the rest of the buildup to the tag team championship match at Hell in a Cell was well done. WWE still has a lot of work to do to make the tag division relevant again, but it's nice to see them at least trying. Overall Show Another week and another how that felt longer than tit needed to be. WWE is doing damage to themselves with so much programming on a weekly basis when they don't give more attention to the undercard. As it stands watching the show feels like a chore and it has for some time now. There were some entertaining segments sprinkled throughout the show, but they were buried under piles of filler. If you have any questions or comments or just wish to chat with a fellow wrestling fan about whatever, then feel free to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com or follow me on Twitter at @TheRyanKester.

Silhouette Select Series 30 Inch Wall Mount Curved Glass Chimney Range Hood
Model:DWRH303GSSTDescription & Highlights
Danby Silhouette Select Series 30 Inch Wall Mount Curved Glass Chimney Range Hood - Stainless Steel
Quickly remove unpleasant and sometimes unhealthy smoke and odors in your kitchen with the Danby Silhouette Select Series 30 Inch Wall Mount Curved Glass Chimney Range Hood (DWRH303GSST). This eye-catching range hood features a ultra modern curved glass plate surrounding a luxurious stainless steel chimney hood with a matching two-piece flue. The 30-inch width is an ideal option as it's conveniently-sized to fit in almost any kitchen space, yet large enough to provide ample coverage for your range. Equipped with two (2) powerful centrifugal fans and two (2) halogen lamps, this chimney style range hood is ready to provide substantial venting and lighting for your kitchen.
Each fan has three (3) speeds and is capable of exhausting up to 500 cubic feet or air per minute. Adjust the speed using the back-lit push-button controls mounted front and center, and view the operation status on the high-tech blue LED display. The built-in heat sensor measures the current temperature and automatically turns the fans on to the highest setting when the temperature on the range reaches 158° F (70° C). When engaged, the auto-off function automatically turns the fans off after 5 minutes, getting the job done quickly while giving you one less thing to worry about. The automatic filter reminder notifies you after 100 hours of fan usage that it's time to wash the durable stainless steel mesh filters -- which just so happen to be dishwasher-safe for easy maintenance.

The hood senses when a temperature of 158° F (70° C) is reached, then automatically turns the fans on to the highest setting -- if already on, it adjusts to the highestAuto-Off Function:

Re: I See Red
My strongest feeling on this is that the Battle Red looks good and it works very well as an alternate color. Pulling it out for important games is very, very cool and in those small doses it seems to give the team and the fans a feeling that the intensity just went up a notch or so. That makes it a gimmick in my book and I don't think there's anything to be ashamed about where that is concerned. Every team in the NFL has it's gimmicks. The Cowboys used to do their little offensive line "group-set" thing and the Raiders used to sign crazy people that nobody wanted. The Steelers had their towels and everybody has throwback or alternate jerseys now. Gimmicks are fine as long as things don't get out of hand.
I like the red but you're not doing it any favors by swapping it with the Steel Blue and making it our regular jersey color.
First of all think about what you're getting when you do that. We wear white almost all the time. I'm so sick of wearing white at home and getting to see the Steel Blue only like 4 times a year (or something like that). It seems like we wear white too much in my opinion. So you take Blue out and put the Battle Red in and now you get a couple more games in the red BUT you're still spending the majority of your time wearing white.
What's the point? All you do is make the red less "special" and you're still seeing white all the time.
I'm old school. I can accept an alternate jersey color but for the most part I want to see 8 games in home uniforms and 8 games in away uniforms and that's that.
Fitz makes bad decisions. That's not going to change.

dc.description.abstract | The Promotion of Doctrine by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the FaithIn Light of Pastor bonus and Canon 754Very Rev. Christopher J. Beaudet, J.C.D.Director: Prof. Kurt Martens, J.C.D.ABSTRACTThe Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) has safeguarded doctrine since its inception, yet the 1988 Apostolic Constitution Pastor bonus describes the CDF's "proper duty" as being twofold: "to promote (promovere) and safeguard (tutari) the doctrine on faith and morals in the whole Catholic world." The dissertation investigates and presents the canonical significance of the CDF's competency to promote doctrine as distinct from safeguarding it, and probes the applicability of canon 754 in determining the legally required response to doctrine promoted by the CDF on the part of the Christian faithful.The dissertation has five chapters. Chapter one provides a general sketch of the CDF's historical competency to safeguard doctrine in order to highlight its relatively recent competency to promote it. Chapter two presents the pastoral incentives which led to the reform of the Roman Curia in Pastor bonus in general and of the norms for the CDF in particular. Chapter three illustrates how the CDF, the International Theological Commission (ITC), and the Pontifical Biblical Commission (PBC) have promoted doctrine since Pastor bonus through the analysis of selected documents. Chapter four traces the genesis, development, and pastoral incentives to the revision of canon 754 in order to draw parallels to Pastor bonus and to determine the canon's applicability to the reception of doctrine promoted by the CDF. Chapter five assesses related questions to the topic and offers an assessment of the consistency with which the CDF, ITC, and PBC have employed ecclesiastical documents for the purpose of promoting doctrine.The dissertation demonstrates that the promotion of doctrine is one modality of the CDF's bipartite proper duty such that accomplishing one task necessarily involves the other. Pastor bonus sought to emphasize the positive dimension of the CDF's service to the pope and college of bishops, an emphasis similarly reflected in the proposal of doctrine which the "legitimate authority of the Church" may do in canon 754.

Sukumaran, K K (1987) Monsoon prawn fishery by indigenous gears along the Mangalore coast. Marine Fisheries Information Service, Technical and Extension Series, 76 . pp. 1-4.
| PDF - Published Version 352Kb |
An appraisal of the prawn fishery by indigenous gears in the monsoon season during 1979-'85 along the Mangalore coast is attempted in the present article. After southwest monsoon the gears operated for prawns include cast nets, kanthabale, pattabale, kairampani, matabale etc,. During the course of the present study, observations were made at Ullal, Bengre, Baikampady, Kulai, Polippu and Hejamadi where fishery was reported. Regular catch statistics were collected from Ullal and Baikampady only. The fishery was mostly supported by large sized prawns of M. dobsoni and P. indicus. The introduction of matabala in 1984 and the subsequent addition during the following seasons, have boosted the prawn landings to a large extent, along this coast.

Starbucks announces that they'll be removing cochineal extract from their products
Those Starbucks customers who were concerned about having a totally vegan diet will soon be able to enjoy a Strawberry Frappuccino again. After wide-spread news, Starbucks has announced that they will be removing cochineal extract from their strawberry sauce, and ultimately all of their products. As many may recall, this was described in the news as an extract from beetles or "crushed bugs." Here's a Seattle Times article on this change.
Here is the official announcement:
While I personally was never offended by the use of cochineal extract, I think that it is impressive how swiftly Starbucks is acting to respond to their vegan customers. And I can easily support the idea of a more natural food coloring alternative in the strawberry sauce.
I realize this update has already been spread widely in the news, but it is important enough that I decided to mention it here.

The Electroneurodiagnostic (END) Technology Program at Boston Children's Hospital trains technologists in electroencephalogram (EEG), evoked potentials, epilepsy monitoring, sleep technology and related fields.
Our program is one year long, with the option of three extra months for Sleep and/or Long-Term Monitoring (LTM) training. Our goal is to instruct our trainees in the art and science of clinical neurophysiologic technology.
Our program has grown out of a long tradition of training in clinical EEG technology which began at Boston Children's in 1951. In that year, William Lennox, MD, established an educational program to train physicians, fellows and technologists in the area of EEG. Our program was initially funded under a federal government research grant.
During the initial years of our grant (and through the early 1970s), technologists were paid a monthly stipend during their six-month training session.
After the death of Dr. Lennox, Cesare T. Lombroso, MD, continued to administer our grant through 1975, when the funding ended. In the latter part of the 1970s, a more formal training program was instituted as the demand for well trained EEG Technologists in the market grew.
Since 1951, our program has trained more than 300 technologists in the EEG field and its trained graduates are working in more than 30 states.
The Electroneurodiagnosic (END) Technology Program at Boston Children's is a highly respected program throughout the country. Our graduates routinely get top job offers each year and throughout their careers.
We constantly work to keep the quality of our program high, and are continually evaluating our efforts. Future changes to our program will be considered in the EEG field as demand for highly skilled and trained technologists increases. We are also committed to offering new courses to our students.
1981: The Boston Children's Hospital EEG Technology Training Program granted accreditation for a two-year period by the American Medical Association.
1983 and 1987: The program reapplied for accreditation and was granted three years consecutively by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP).
1992: The program was awarded accreditation for seven years by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP).
1999: The program was closed due to a lack of technical staffing at Boston Children's.
2006: The program reopened in October accepting only Boston Children's employees.
2007: The program will be accepting students for its June calendar classes.

Can Social Media Really Be Monetized?
Social sites like Facebook and MySpace have long struggled to effectively monetize the social networking space. The Internet's watering holes have tempted advertisers with an engaged and captive audience. But advertisers have seen minimal success with users who balk at unwelcomed and overt advertising tactics.
An article over at Wired today asks Is Social Advertising an Oxymoron? One interactive marketing executive points out the problem with advertising on social media sites: "Who said this is media? Consumers weren't trying to generate media. They were trying to talk to somebody… We hijack their own conversations, their own thoughts and feelings, and try to monetize it."
Facebook Connect is a new feature of the most populous social networking site, which aims to let users take their social networks with them as the surf the Web. Participating third-party Web sites allow users to connect to their Facebook identity and circle of friends while on the site. For example, with Facebook Connect a user could alert her friends to the fact that she is watching a video on Hulu.com (one of the latest partners to jump on board) and invite them to watch along with her. Apart from the innovative access given to users to easily share interesting finds and stories, Facebook is hopeful that the new feature will lead to advertising revenue from partner sites.
From The New York Times:
A survey last week from the research firm IDC suggested that social networks were a miserable place for advertisers: just 57 percent of all users of social networks clicked on an ad in the last year, and only 11 percent of those clicks led to a purchase, IDC said. […] This is where Facebook Connect could help. […] Facebook has detailed information about its users: their real identities, what they like and dislike and whom they associate with. With a member's permission, it could use that data to help other Web sites deliver more personalized ads. Similarly, those sites could tell Facebook what its users are doing elsewhere, helping to make its own ads more targeted.
Will it work?
When you visit The New York Times Web site, have you ever noticed the bar at the top of the page inviting you to join TimesPeople? I've been hesitant to join because I don't like broadcasting my activities to others and I'm reluctant to add another social network to my ever-growing list. Facebook Connect would eliminate the latter concern while limiting such broadcasts to a small group of people that I actually care to share my interests with. From the user's perspective, Facebook Connect doesn't sound like an altogether bad idea.
But can it really be leveraged by advertisers? Possibly. We're starting to see more and more attempts, anyway.
One interesting case study of social media monetization comes from the Times itself. In a recent campaign, The New York Times asked its Facebook followers what the first act of the president-elect should be when he takes office. The message reached 68.3 million people and resulted in a staggering jump in the number of Facebook fans for the news organization. According to the story, the number of fans multiplied three-fold, from 49,000 to 164,000. That could be three times more eyeballs reading Times stories and, importantly, Times ads. This is reflected in the fact that the publication saw a four-time return on their investment.
Several other darlings of the social space, like YouTube and MySpace, are also trying their hand at programs designed to improve monetization of their sites. MySpace touts its detailed user demographics and YouTube leans on its engaging content. Most social networks worth an advertiser's consideration can boast impressive traffic stats and that coveted audience of expendable-income-laden 18 to 40 year olds. But only time will tell if advertising to people in their cozy social space is worth the effort after all.

I think one reason advertising on Facebook isn't working as well as hoped is because the earliest adopters of the format were affiliate marketers, so the ads immediately smelled like spam. Placement of ads in the news feed certainly doesn't help, either, because people are busy doing something already when they see those ads. Perhaps advertising on Facebook should be seen more from a branding perspective than an ROI angle?

I hadn't thought of that — an excellent point. The ads currently on Facebook do smell a bit spammy and the placement in the news feed seems misplaced, if not irritating. I wonder if the opt-in nature of Facebook Connect, which isn't actually an ad program at all, will be viewed more positively by users. Thanks, Jonathan!

I think social networks will never be the jackpot of advertising. They will follow a slow progressions of creating better targeted ads by creating platforms which give rich connections to people and the people around them.

This is an interesting topic. Social media marketing (not advertising) is definitely a boon for the small business owner. But ads on Facebook, and in general, are not really going to do it anymore. How can Facebook capitalize on the money small businesses (and other businesses – when they catch up) stand to make from networking through their website?

Matt Johnson writes:
A successful social network advertising model is one that puts social networks users in control of the advertising messages. When that happens, brands will be inserted in the online conversations of the users. Until then, advertisers will remain frustrated and social networks will continue to offer poor advertising options.

Eric Reid writes:
The problem isn't really one of users that are unresponsive to advertisers – it's that advertisers seem to be refusing to treat people on social sites as robots whose only purpose is to help them get a decent conversion rate.
@ December 4th, 2008 at 14:26
If social networks are going to be used for this kind of one-way advertising, efforts have to be made to target the traffic correctly. We've actually had some success with Facebook's advertising solution. We can target people with specific interests, so it's something they'd be interested in, and we can make offers they would particularly be interested in. -
Gab Goldenberg (linking to his facebook ads archives) writes:
Social media ads work. Executives claiming otherwise haven't experimented sufficiently, read sufficiently or have some other issues holding their shops back.
WHo claimed it was media? Well, a "media-buy" is really just fancy talk for putting your message alongside something else the user was really interested in (the news, a sports event etc) … just like their conversations. OMGZ!!

INTERIOR: Visitors to the Guangzhou auto show were unfortunately not allowed to look inside the one Si Rui model on display. But potential buyers will be comparing the quality of the dashboard, fabrics and fit and finish with foreign brands. Chinese carmakers have had a tough time raising their quality game and a close look at other BYD models on display showed they were, as the Chinese say, just "mama-huhu," or so-so, with plasticky door handles and inconsistent gaps between door and body. TECH: A few high-tech touches will make the Si Rui appeal to gadget freaks. Drivers will be able to see in the dark thanks to a night vision system, which will display an enhanced view of the road ahead to the driver through a heads-up display on the dashboard. The dash also features a 10.2 inch touchscreen to control navigation, parking and entertainment systems. A 500 gigabyte hard drive can hold 1,000 movies and 100,000 songs. NAME: Si Rui is a made-up word in Chinese. Its closest meaning would be "perceptive." WHY IT MATTERS: BYD's third-quarter profit plunged 94 percent to 4.6 million yuan as the number of cars sold fell 18 percent year-on-year to 77,000. Clearly, having a hit in China's car market, which saw sales of 18.5 million vehicles last year, would be a huge help to BYD and investor Buffett, who spent $232 million on a 10 percent stake in 2008. The wisdom of that investment, which was based on the attractiveness of BYD's battery technology, now looks a bit doubtful.

Q: I have a six-foot high Confederate Rose. What is the best way to propagate this plant? Can it be rooted ?
A: Propagating a Confederate rose is easy. You can do it by seeds or cuttings. After the flowers fade they leave behind a brittle seed capsule. You can collect seeds from them in fall and plant them in spring.
Rooting is even easier. Just collect several twelve-inch long cuttings from the limb tips in fall, before the first frost, and stick them six inches into a bucket of water or a deep vase. Keep in a sunny, warm spot indoors. Roots will form by December. You can transplant the cuttings to gallon pots in January and plant them outdoors in spring.

Critical Corporate Law, Colorblind Constitutional LawAnupam ChanderUniversity of California, Davis - School of Law 2008 Yale Law Journal, Vol. 118, 2008 UC Davis Legal Studies Research Paper No. 221 Abstract: Should minority status be a relevant datum for judicial decision? That is the question motivating my paper, Minorities, Shareholder and Otherwise, published a handful of years ago in the Yale Law Journal. This short essay published in the Yale Law Journal Online introduces an online symposium revisiting that work, with responses from Stephen Bainbridge, Richard Delgado, and Kevin Johnson, and a final rejoinder from me. In Minorities, Shareholder and Otherwise, I demonstrate that corporate law recognizes the relevance of minority status, even while constitutional law more and more insists on minority-blindness. I argue that this is precisely backwards – that the constitutional domain should require greater judicial vigilance with respect to minority status than the corporate domain. The difficulty of exit from a polity and the inability to negotiate (or at least select among) terms of entry into a polity, not to mention a history of grave injustice, call for special attention to minorities in the constitutional context. By juxtaposing the colorblind aspirations of current constitutional law doctrine with the minority-mindfulness of corporate law, I reveal a fundamental incoherence in the law. Minorities, Shareholder and Otherwise identifies this puzzle, and suggests that corporate law has a grip on real world relations that constitutional law increasingly abjures.

Writing the Review
Below are some tips for writing play reviews:
The introduction should include the following:
A. The title of the play, the name of the playwright, and any pertinent historical information regarding them (other similar works from this period? by this writer?).
B. The name of the director, the place and date of the production you attended, and the name of the production company (again, do you know of any previous work by this company? this director?).
C. The thesis of your review, which should include (possibly in more than a single statement) the following:
Papp's production of Lear captured all the horror of a world where love can't be counted on and where life is nasty, brutish, and appallingly short.
(Note that this thesis asserts that Papp captured the essence of what is in the text itself -- the expectations set up by the thesis are that the reviewer will then analyze the methods by which the director achieved this effect.)
Smith's You Can't Take It With You made me sympathize with the notion that freedom must permit eccentricity and even, to a point, endorse it. Without that sympathy, the play would have been reduced to pure chaos and would have failed to portray an American ideal of freedom.
(This thesis suggests that "sympathy" was the director's intention. Note also that the reviewer gives a strong indication of what he/she expected to find in the production.)
In You Can't Take It With You, the acting by the family members on the open, exposed stage displayed an innocent and vigorous freedom, as well as a proud independence in their confrontation with accepted norms of behavior.
Include a brief thematic summary (but not a plot summary) of the play, and support that summary with concrete evidence from the text.
You can include this summary in the introduction; or, if you wish to expand the summary, include it in a separate paragraph following the introduction.
Remember that in the body of the paper you are obliged to deal specifically with each element of the production that you mentioned in the introduction and thesis.
In order to give your review a tight internal logic and cohesiveness, you should also discuss these elements in the order that you outlined in the introduction. Such points of discussion might include the non-technical (acting, directing) and/or the technical (lighting, scenery, costumes) aspects of the production.
For each element that you discuss:
The tempest scene in Lear utilized a particularly hostile set in order to universalize the suffering depicted throughout the play. The lights were dimmed and the backdrop was flat black. Against this backdrop were propped, in no particular order, seven skulls that looked out over the events to come.
(Note the vivid description of what was seen, and the use of detail to convey that vividness. The passage will work nicely as evidence for an overall, positive evaluation of the production.)
Your conclusion should not merely recapitulate your thesis in a mechanical way.
Rather, you should try to show why your response to the play is valid and significant, based on what you have described in the body of the paper.
Do not add any significant new material, but don't be afraid to leave your reader with something to think about.

API SetBindingSpell
this wiki
Binds a key or button press to a spell. Unbinds the key or button if the command argument is nil.
There does not appear to be a limit to the number of keys you can bind to a command. The GUI key binding window will only show you the first two. But if you set 5 different keys to the same command, they will all work.
A single key can only be bound to one command. Binding a key to a command that is already bound to another command will result in un-binding the key from the previous command.
If the function succeeds, the keys are usable immediately in game and will appear in the GUI key bindings window. However, they are not written to disk unless SaveBindings() is called. SaveBindings() is not called as part of the normal Logout procedure, so you either have to call it manually or open the GUI key binding window and click Okay.
SetBindingSpell doesn't appears to work if your character is in combat. (2.0.1)
- Arguments
- (String key, String spellName)
- key
- (string) Key name of the key to bind (e.g. W, CTRL-F, BUTTON2). As of 1.6 there is now error checking on this value so random strings for key names won't work anymore.
- spellName
- (string) Spell name to execute when the key is pressed (e.g. "Teleport:Moonglade", "Corruption"). This argument is optional. If not included, the function will un-bind the key argument. Also, using an invalid command will also un-bind the key specified.
- Returns
- success
- 1 if the binding succeeded. nil if it failed or the key was unbound.
- Note:
- This is equivalent to SetBinding(key, "SPELL " .. spellName)
