ThinkFree to take Web documents offline

'Office 2.0' start-ups knock on business doorsOctober 9, 2006
The premium edition from ThinkFree will cost between $5 and $10 per month, company executives said. Right now, people can use the company's suite of Web-based online applications for free.
ThinkFree is one of a number of so-called Office 2.0 companies that offer Web-based productivity applications, including a word processor, spreadsheet and presentation package.
The free version, called ThinkFree Online Basic Edition, is supported by advertising. The company also licenses its software to organizations that choose to run it on-premise.
A closed beta, or test version, program for the premium edition is planned for January, with a wider beta planned for Feburary. The finished product will be generally available at the end of the first quarter of next year, said Jonathan Crow, the company's director of marketing.
Once available, the premium edition will let people work on documents offline, make edits and have those changes synchronized with documents on ThinkFree's servers, he said. That feature is not included in the free edition. The document formats are compatible with Microsoft Office applications.
"Basically, we're looking at the concept of a briefcase on your hard drive. Sort of like a file management system so you understand the latest state of a file," Crow said.
Features that depend on a person being online, such as collaboration with other people, will not be replicated on the premium version, he noted. It will require people to download a Java applet, which will allow them to run the ThinkFree applications when they are not connected to the Internet.
The premium service will also include e-mail support and a utility to allow people to create an archive on a hard drive of online files.

Small Business PPC – 26 Mistakes That Cost You Money
You've decided it's time to get online and what easier way than by starting a PPC campaign? Google has made it so simple that with a few clicks you are well on your way to Digital Marketing Success.
you seem to be spending a lot of money.
you're not really sure if it's making you money.
Here are the most common mistakes that I see when we take over a Small Business PPC Campaign:
1. Setting up your campaign as per Google's Default settings. I love Google. Their interface is awesome and their customer service rocks. But let's face it. The defaults are set up to maximize revenue for Google. Sometimes that means that you'll make a lot of money too. But sometimes it means that you will not be running as efficient a campaign as you could be.
2. Trying to Stretch your Budget too far. I don't care what kind of PPC genius you are, there is no way that you can stretch a $5.00 per day budget across North America.
I didn't make this up. I've someone try this. Twice.
Think about your cost per click and your budget. If you're averaging $1.00 per click then that gives you roughly 5 clicks per day. You need to make those clicks as targeted as possible.
3. Content Network. Google has the content network set up as a default that you have to opt out of. But the content network is not right for everyone. I've seen many situations where the content network has eaten a significant portion of the budget with a very low conversion rate. The Content Network can be hugely successful for some businesses. But it's not a "set and forget" type of campaign.
4. Geographical Targeting too Broad. There is a distinction between where you want to do business and where your target market is. Just because you could conceivably ship your widget anywhere in the world does not mean that a guy in Istanbul wants to buy it from your Iowa business.
By not focusing your PPC Budget to the geographical area where you're most likely to convert, you're wasting budget that could be used to increase your bids, broaden your keywords, keep you in the market longer, etc, etc.
5. Geographical Targeting too Narrow. This mistake is less common but I still see it a lot. There are many businesses that only sell within a small geographic area (less than 5 miles) . Think Local Businesses like Dry Cleaners, Tutors, Vets, etc. You definitely need to narrow down where your ads are served (as per #4 above) but Google isn't that precise. So if 1 mile is your geographic radius, try setting your geographical radius to 10 miles.
6. Launching with a very complex an account structure. The more complex your account the more difficult it will be to to determine what's working and what isn't. You can always build out ad groups and keyword lists after you have a better sense of what's working and what isn't.
7. Running your entire account under one campaign / one budget. Just as too complex is a problem too simple can be problematic too.
Geographical targeting is set at the campaign level so is your daily budget. You may have some high ROI products that you want to target broader geographically or High Performing keywords that should get more allocation of budget. Setting up more than one campaign will allow you to do this.
8. Not employing Day Parting. If you have a large budget and can afford to be in the market 24/7 then great! But for those that have to make budget decisions, Day Parting can be your best friend. If you're a B to B industry it's likely that you can maximize budget by only running ads 9-5 Monday to Friday.
Keep in mind that time of day targeting is set by your timezone so if you're on EST but California is a big market for you then you're going to have to take Time Zone differences into consideration.
9. Not enough ad groups. Ads are differentiated at the Ad Group level. By segmenting your keyword list into themed groups of keywords and then writing ads that specifically target those themes, you can have a huge impact on both your Click Through Rates (CTR) and Conversion Rates.
10. Not enough Ads in your Ad Groups. Writing targeted ads for each ad group can be a difficult task (it can be a little boring too). But think about it. Customers will click on the most compelling ad. If your ad is less compelling than your competitors, then you won't sell any widgets.
You know your customer and you know what sells...so why write more than one ad per ad group?
Because if you don't then you can't test different messaging. Trust me when I tell you that you will be surprised by the results and you will learn something new about your customers.
11. Using very Broad keywords. Broad keywords tend to be used by people early in the buying cycle. Think about the difference between "Vacation", "All Inclusive Vacation" and "Bermuda All Inclusive Vacation". Generally we find that people using very broad keyword queries are very early in the buying cycle, in the Learning Phase. As a result, conversion rates for these types of keywords are very low. Yet broad keywords tend to cost the most.
Narrower, more specific keywords tend to be used by people who know what they want and are closer to the Purchase Phase of the Buying Cycle.
I've seen Broad keywords eat 50% of a Small Business budget without any conversions. In this scenario, by not bidding on those expensive keywords the client reduced their spend by half while maintaining the same # of Conversions and Doubling their ROI.
12. Only utilizing Broad Match. Broad match is another default in Google. It allows Google to display your ads for variations, plurals, related words etc. If you are only using broad match, you may find that your ads are buying you low quality clicks.
13. Not using Negative Keywords. Negative keywords can help you to make those broad match keywords more effective by telling the search engines not to display your ads for irrelevant searches. Think about our vacation example above. A cruise line may wish to go after the keyword "cruise" but put a negative on "Tom" and "Penelope" i.e. not "Tom Cruise" or "Penelope Cruise".
14. Not Bidding on Your Brand Name. You may think that you don't need to bid on your name because your customers "should know" to type .com beside your name in their browser and go directly to your site.
Don't count on it. People will type www.companyname.com into their search query. You don't want to miss those clicks. Unless your company name is "Dell" or "Sony" chances are your branded terms will have a very low Cost per Click. They'll also be your highest converting keywords.
15. Not Bidding on Misspellings of your Brand Name. If branding is important to you then it's really going to hurt to bid on misspellings of your name. But remember that only the guy spelling it wrong is going to see that ad. They're not going to know any better anyway.
Consider this, if someone hears your ad on the radio you can't be sure that they'll know how to spell your company name. Bidding on misspellings increases the effectiveness of your offline advertising too.
16. Dynamic Insertion. Dynamic insertion puts the keyword that the searcher used into your ad title. If you do it well then dynamic insertion can increase your CTR significantly. For example, if someone does a search for "Kids Duvet covers" and they find your ad that says "kids duvet covers"; the average searcher is going to think "wow! these guys have exactly what I'm looking for" and click on your ad.
But a word of warning. Dynamic Insertion can go horribly wrong too. Make sure that you test your dynamic insertion ads with some of your own searches to see how they're showing up.
17. Maximum Bids. If you set your maximum bids too high you will pay more per click than you need to, especially if you're using broad match. If you are the only one bidding for a keyword, you should not be paying $1.00 per click for it. Try $0.10 an see what happens.
18. Bidding for the #1 Spot. There is little question that the number 1 spot does garner the most clicks. But Volume of Clicks is not your objective - it's sales. If people are comparison shopping you may find that a lower position, but still above the fold (like #3) will cost less and have a higher conversion rate . It's important to test the ROI on various positions.
19. Boring Ad Copy. Do a few keyword searches and most of the time you will find really boring ad copy. Your ad is what compels people to click. Make sure you give them a reason to click. Look at how your ad reads versus the competition. Would you click on it?
20. No Clear Call to Action. It's psychological. You need to tell people what you want them to do next. Numerous studies show that clear calls to action increase both CTR's and Conversion Rates.
21. Not testing small changes to the same ad. Writing a few different iterations of the same ad and measuring the results of those changes can have a huge impact on conversion rates. According to MSN, "Buy Now" will perform 171% better than "click here" in the education sector.
22. Testing too much at once. When you set up your PPC test you need to think of how many clicks you need to get before the test is statistically significant. If the 99th person clicks on an ad, you will have a 1% ctr. It is entirely possible that the 100th person could click your ad too, giving you a 2% ctr.
That's pretty straight forward. But now let's pretend that you want to do some multi-variant testing of 3 titles, with 3 first lines and 3 different second lines. That's 27 different tests. To even allow for 100 clicks to each of the tests that will take 2,700 clicks. If you are in a low volume high ROI industry then it's possible that this test could take months.
23. Sending all of your traffic to your home page. Home pages are typically not your highest converting page. If you're sending people to your homepage chances are they're going to have to search for what they're looking for. With every click you make your traffic take, you will lose people. Why not send them to what they told you they were looking for in the first place?
24. Ignoring Quality Score - Quality Score has a huge impact on your campaign's performance. An improved quality score can increase sales while reducing costs. It can take time to improve your quality score (i.e. by setting up individual landing pages) but it's usually well worth it.
25. Not finding a way to track conversions. If you don't do e-commerce on your site it can be difficult to figure out how to track conversions. But whether it's through a online inquiry form or a unique phone number, tracking conversions is critical.
Your highest CTR keywords may never convert. If you can't measure conversions, you could be wasting a ton of money.
26. Measuring Success through the wrong Metrics. Which would you rather have? A 10% CTR and a 2% Conversion Rate or a 5% CTR and a 3% Conversion Rate?
Let's do the math. Let's assume 1000 impressions per day at $1.00 per click and $50.00 value per conversion.
a) Scenario number one would cost us $100 and make us $100 for a break even ROI
b) Scenario number two would cost us $50 and make us $75 for a 50% ROI

I keep getting messages in my Google Analytics dashboard suggesting that I ought to use the data to run an Adsense campaign.
Would there be any benefit from targetting keywords where I already rank first in Google? Does 1 + 1 = 2, or could it extend to equal 3?
Hi Jennifer
Brilliant post, it covers it all. Clients that need to save money so they will do it themselves. This is not something you can learn in a day, its a profession.

Thank you jennifer, I always like your posts.
Great list Jennifer!
May I suggest #27: Not using a website analytics solution to understand how the traffic from different PPC keywords behaves once on the site.
Solid advice.

Okay, brain over load. This was great information but it will take some time to sink in 100% where I can do this without coming back every minute.
Regarding #26. Setting a) can be desirable as well if it helps you to gain a userbase that you can, in the future, build upon. And it has a greater volume of searches that setting b).
This is an exhaustive post, vitally important for someone like me. Thank you. I am saving this for posterity.
I thought the post was great, this is the kind of info you would get out of those adsense books that cost 25 bucks. So thank you.
Nice post, Jennifer! I'm sure incredibily useful for many people.
Do you think it's funny that CPM is the pricing model for all the new blog networks currently making noise? It may be 2.0 media, but it's the same old branding story.
Very Good List. If most businesses just listened to some of these simple pointers they would save quite a bit.
Amazing list. I didn't even realise that I was making some of these mistakes till I read this.

Head constable Suresh Annapa Mahapure's lasting, and embarrassing, memory is how, in frustration, he just grabbed a mango off a cart and bit into it, unmindful of the pulp dripping down his shirt. Assistant inspector Rajinder Bhonsle says the daily parades for 17 days will be what he will always remember of his years in service, when he retires seven months from now. The four months they spent sitting across minor victims, trying to get every detail they could, will be an experience women officers will take a long time to forget. Nor will the officials who pored over three hours of CCTV footage in all and old files, joining the dots.
They were among 26 officials who, between January 18, 2013, and April 17, 2014, were involved in one of the biggest manhunts the Mumbai police have seen in recent years. Since then, the man they caught, Ayyaz Mohammed Ali Ansari, 32, has been booked in 25 sexual assault cases, including two of rape under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012.
On the morning of January 18, 2013, an angry woman walked into the Dadabhai Naoroji Nagar police station in Andheri West, complaining that her 10-year-old granddaughter had been molested.
Inspector Ajay Kshirsagar dispatched two policewomen to the child's house. The girl said she had been lured through a small lane behind a mosque. She recalled seeing a water tank, a stone path, a car parking lot, and the outside of a building, as she followed that stranger. She had gone with him after he had told her he was her father's friend and wanted her to give her father his mobile number.
"We asked her everything possible. It was difficult," recalls Kshirsagar.
The girl revealed that her assaulter had been of dark complexion, his hair thick and bunched together when brushed back from his face, that he had a broad but flat forehead, a thick moustache and long eyebrows. The top two buttons of his shirt were open.
In the evening, the women officers who had met the 10-year-old sat with an artist to draw a sketch. However, when it was taken back to the girl, she felt crucial details were missing though the features appeared accurate. Now she added that the shirt the molester wore was loose and not tucked into his trousers, he had slippers on, and he had a paunch. The child also recalled struggling against a pair of "hairy arms".
While these details …continued »

Lots of information about our family was on the verge of being lost, so I began researching both my and my husband's extended families plus families from the small towns we both came from.
Family connections expanded. I received much material for the Dare/Twitty/Baker family from Dare researcher M.Doris Provart Gower, who graciously agreed to my sharing with you. Darnell-Hollaway/ Holloway family got help from Evah Hollaway Lager Picard, Grace Norris Hollaway and Lee Ann Hollaway Bailleu.
The Zahn/Brand/Schneider Kukuck & Voigt family was assisted by Talisman Temple Barbosa, Mary Farley Cummins and David Peipho. The Steinberg/ Koerner family has research from cousins Don & Janet Dickason, Lois Steinberg Adams and Ruth Koerner McCabe.
The extended Martin/Snelling/Shupe family come from my interviews with family members and the research of Terry Harper of Albion, IL, a fellow family member.
The Witt/Hoffman/Franks family has material from Mary Ann Franks O'Neill, Eleanor Hensen Kerber and the website of John Franks.
The Gerken-Helmers (Meyer/Martens, Brandt) family is mostly mine with help of cousins Mary Ann Hill and Eunice Martens Blissard.
Other individuals added information for their extended family. Most of them are credited in their additions. St. John's Lutheran church of Anchor, IL has a public website which gave much data for my great-grandfather and those families who lived near my childhood home.
Now I can share what I've found with others and get even more accurate data. I have used the best information I have, but will gladly correct errors and add or subtract material or transfer memorials if requested by someone closer.
Happy family researching!!

RE: Emma Troutt White Knox
I would be happy to accept responsibility for this site. I am trying to get all my direct line people entered on the Looser Family website on Ancestry.com. Find a grave is proving to be much fun, particularly for relatives in the last 100 years. I'm lovin' it. It is terrific history.
Best wishes to you and yours,

RE: Ashley infant
If you'll tell me the memorial number, I'll be happy to transfer this little one's memorial to you for safekeeping. You'd be surprised how many unnamed babies there are with the same last name. It's a shame we can't give them full names all these years later. My maternal grandfather had two siblings who died at birth or soon after and weren't given names. :-(

RE: Jacob Shupe, Sr.
The tombstone states that this Jacob was 68 when he died, so that matches the 1788 birth date, as he died 26 May 1856.
Thanks again!

RE: Jacob Shupe, Sr.
The Jacob Shupe this memorial is for is Jacob Shupe, born 1788. Someone has changed his birthday. Are you the one who put the birthday on? If so, can you just change it to 1788, so it can be correct. It was correct back in Oct 2014.
The other Jacob Shupe, born in 1798, is this Jacob's brother, John's, son.
These two keep getting mixed up. This John married Mary Magdalene Phillippi. The Jacob born in 1798 married Delila Moyes.

Home Page Settlements Family Dollar
Family Dollar
York, PA: (Mar-30-07) The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed a lawsuit on behalf of Timothy Scott Brown, a paraplegic, against Family Dollar in Sept 2005, accusing it of non compliance with regulations set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. The suit alleged that Brown was not provided access to a bathroom and was overlooked for promotion on account of his disability. He was also forced to resign. The ADA forbids discrimination and assures equal opportunity for people with disabilities in employment, while receiving state and local government services, at commercial facilities, on transportation and with public accommodations. In a settlement reached, Family Dollar agreed to pay Brown $69,000 to settle the employment discrimination suit. [

Lessons from the Soviet Collapse
Last year, a special issue of the National Interest attempted the beginnings of an autopsy on the Soviet system. Now, with the appearance of Martin Malia's The Soviet Tragedy: A History of Socialism in Russia, 1917-19911 and Richard Pipes's Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime2 the great reappraisal—not only of the Soviet system itself, but of the implications of its rise, consolidation, and eventual collapse for the political culture of the West—is fully under way.
For all their similarities, the books by Pipes and Malia are very different. Pipes, in a sequel to his The Russian Revolution (1990), presents us with a rather detailed narrative history of 1918-23, based on elaborate research. In some parts, such as the account of the Civil War or of Lenin's relations with Stalin, his narrative has the drama of a novel or of military history.
Malia, on the other hand, has written a conceptual history of the entire Soviet regime which largely draws on the research of others, except for the period of perestroika and collapse. It is a very French book, inspired by the Parisian intellectual milieu, dominated throughout by a fascination with ideas that results in cascades of glittering aphorisms, always deeply thought-provoking but rarely proved.
The deepest disagreement of Pipes and Malia is about the pattern or "logic" of Communism's life course. Malia boldly defies the currently fashionable social history: "The concrete agenda of this book . . . is to reassert the primacy of ideology and politics over social and economic forces in understanding the Soviet phenomenon." For Malia, in "really existing" Marxism, as opposed to the theoretical kind, it was ideology that was the base, the economy that was the superstructure.
As against Malia, Pipes argues that Bolshevism represented a filling of the ambiguous Marxist legacy "with the content nearest to hand, which in Russia was the historic legacy of [autocratic] patrimonialism." Pipes makes his case in this elegant formula:
It is not that the Bolsheviks wanted to copy czarist practices: on the contrary, they wanted to have nothing in common with them, to do the very opposite. They emulated them by force of circumstance. Once they rejected democracy, . . . they had no choice but to govern autocratically. And to rule autocratically meant ruling the people in a manner to which they had been accustomed.
Thus the Soviet Union under the Communists wound up with institutions oddly reminiscent of early-modern Russia: an autocrat, a "service nobility" of officials rendering obligatory state service, peasantry bound to the land.
What, then, according to each of these authors, is the deepest lesson to be learned by the West from the catastrophic failure of Communism or "socialism"? To begin with Malia, we confront an immediate paradox: although his brilliant book is more theoretical than Pipes's, and more informed by philosophy, its conclusion is oddly anticlimactic:
So long as inequality exists, society will continue to be divided into a Left and a Right, a "party of movement" and a "party of resistance". . . And the former camp will continue to be called "socialism," for the discredit cast upon that magical word in the immediate wake of the Soviet disaster will not last beyond the next crisis of "capitalism"—that is, of the real world. So in one form or another, the lion of "capitalism" and the unicorn of "socialism" will no doubt contend inconclusively until the end of modernity.
In believing that the "party of movement" will continue to be called "socialism," Malia may be too rooted in the present moment. After all, the organization of politics along religious lines after the Reformation did not survive the disastrous wars of religion that followed. Nor did the political "party" of monarchy and aristocracy long outlast the democratic revolutions and the rise of popular sovereignty in the 18th and 19th centuries. Fascism, under that name, was enormously popular in many countries during the 1930's but could not survive the war and the revelation of what the fascist regimes had really done. In this sense, the end of modernity may be nearer than Malia thinks.
One reason why it is possible to imagine an end to modernity—which is also the age of ideology—is that we know premodernity. In classical antiquity, armies of rebellious slaves, like the one organized by Spartacus, could ravage Italy and make Rome tremble, but there was no demand for the abolition of slavery because there was no alternative world view—no ideology—around which to organize political upheavals ("revolutions") so as to usher in a rational political order. The place that modernity fills with the vision of a just society of the future was filled earlier by the idea of a golden age or Garden of Eden, from which man had fallen, or by a Utopia in the literal sense, which existed "nowhere" because the conditions that would permit it to exist were found nowhere and could not be created by human will.
But if antiquity was closed to ideology, the future could be too. As I wrote in the Spring 1993 National Interest:
. . . When Communism finally perishes, there will be for the first time in about 300 years no strong alternative world view to that undergirding the existing institutions, no vision of alternative political arrangements to sustain an adversary culture, and no strong ideologically driven movement to secure those arrangements. Our life both political and intellectual will proceed within an entirely new horizon.
Perhaps Malia arrives at such a tame conclusion to his savage attack on the Soviet experiment because he believes that the market ("capitalism") cannot, by itself, give us a just society. "The just society, insofar as it can be approached, must be the product of the moral and political will of a community acting on the amoral forces of the market. And this means that state intervention in the market's operation for moral and political ends" is and must always be part of the "natural" order of society.
Thus, the great lesson to be learned from the Communist failure seems to reduce to the absolute need to avoid utopianism. But Malia draws back even from this conclusion, to which his whole narrative powerfully drives us. For Malia,
. . . [u]topias are as necessary as they are dangerous. Without the goad of exaggerated hope and excessive zeal, very little democratic reform would be launched in this world. . . . The overstatements of visionary socialism were necessary to produce the welfare state, which is the present point of equilibrium between the two forces ["socialism" and "capitalism"] that now define the politics of normality.
Yet even if one takes for granted the goodness of the welfare state, Great Britain, to cite one important example, reached it without actual or proposed utopian revolutions. What would seem to follow, on Malia's premises, from a comparison of the Soviet and British cases would be something like a very cautious, unsystematic (and therefore "unideological") meliorism, not the necessity of Utopia.
Besides, there is another "goad of exaggerated hope and excessive zeal" apart from political Utopia. It is religion. The biblical prophets fearlessly reproached kings, reformed society, and inspired the rebuilding of the Temple without resorting to the utopian illusion. Malia does not advance this possibility, perhaps deterred by his clever insight that in modern times, the utopian illusion became "possible . . . only because history was in fact in constantly accelerating movement toward greater equality and scientific progress." In other words, modern science and technology intrinsically pose utopian possibilities and give rise to utopian visions. This truth suggests how hard it may be to cope with the lessons of the collapse of Communism.
Pipes, for his part, is determined to cope with them. His conclusions from the Soviet tragedy are grimmer than Malia's, less graceful and elusive, more uncompromising and radical. The first lesson that Pipes draws is this:
Bolshevism was the most audacious attempt in history to subject the entire life of a country to a master plan, to rationalize everybody and everything. It sought to sweep aside as useless rubbish the wisdom that mankind had accumulated over millennia. In that sense, it was a unique effort to apply science to human affairs. . . . Communism failed because it proceeded from the erroneous doctrine of the Enlightenment, perhaps the most pernicious idea in the history of thought, that man is merely a material compound, devoid of either soul or innate ideas, and as such a passive product of an infinitely malleable social environment.
Pipes is absolutely right that the failure of the Soviet experiment compels another look at the entire Enlightenment project. In pre-modern times, the fate of Socrates in Athens served as an archetype of the relation between thinking and social life; every community was, in principle, always trying to kill Socrates. Modernity has tried to overcome this contradiction between philosophy and life-in-community by making philosophy ("enlightenment") not only the provider of science and technology but the revealer of a better way of life that the community can seize for everyone.
On the other hand, Pipes does not note how radical this lesson might be. For the Enlightenment is at work not only in Soviet ideology but in the American Founding, too. That great enterprise opened with the declaration that "We hold these truths to be self-evident. . . ." Precisely because the Soviet experiment was so much more extreme than ours in attempting to enlighten or rationalize social life, it can alert us to dangers or even defects intrinsic to our own version of the Enlightenment project.
Pipes sums up his second lesson in these words:
The Russian Revolution has raised the profoundest moral questions about the nature of politics, namely, the right of governments to try to remake human beings and refashion society without their mandate and even against their will. . . . Hippolyte Taine drew from his monumental study of the French Revolution a lesson that he himself described as "puerile," namely, that "human society, especially a modern society, is a vast and complicated thing." One is tempted to supplement this observation with a corollary, that precisely because modern society is so "vast and complicated" and therefore so difficult to grasp, it is neither proper nor feasible to impose on it patterns of conduct, let alone try to remake it. What cannot be comprehended cannot be controlled. The tragic and sordid history of the Russian Revolution . . . teaches that political authority must never be employed for ideological ends. It is best to let people be.
This courageous conclusion, if we take it seriously, is in radical opposition to the entire tradition of the Left, and almost of modernity as such. It represents the recovery of a certain conservative tradition which insists that revolutions are bad not only when their ideology is bad or utopian but even when their agenda is admirable—the tradition of such thinkers as Hume, Burke, and Taine.
Himself a participant in the "Reagan revolution" (as adviser to the President on Soviet affairs), Pipes does not discuss how deep this anti-revolutionary understanding might cut in a country that still more or less respects its Founding in the American Revolution. Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, and Madison thought it morally proper and feasible to impose on society patterns of conduct within certain limits set by human nature, the separation of state and society, and the circumstances of their time and place. Lenin did not accept any such limits. The American Founding project, which for some people seems far too "conservative," too accepting of the status quo (especially in the case of slavery), seems in Pipes's formulation almost too radical.
These vast philosophical and moral issues gain a certain urgency from the snags now increasingly obstructing the transitions to democracy in the countries of the former Soviet Union. It is too early to draw any conclusions, but many of these transitions may be failing, and it is not clear that the advice tendered by Western observers has been helpful.
One possible mistake may have been in the very notion of a "velvet revolution"—that is, a painless and morally pure shift to a normal order that was somehow already available and that could be purchased "off the shelf," as it were. The older concept of the "founder" or "legislator"—i.e., a person who creates a structure that ordinary statesmen will work within—has the advantage that it alerts one to the enormous difficulty of the task, and to the need for both imagination and human sympathy. But this is a role that both tempts hubris and points to the moral dangers involved.
Malia and Pipes have ensured, once their work is absorbed, that the name of Lenin will shine through history as a symbol of these moral dangers. History, in presenting us once again today with chaos in Russia, once again challenges the people of the former USSR with the need to decide whether they are facing an opportunity or only a seductive temptation. If there are opportunities, they can be seized only by finishing the debate Pipes and Malia have opened.

Today is a sad day for videogames, a very-very-very sad day indeed.
Doom 4, sequel to my favourite FPS game of all time, has restarted development to aim for next-generation consoles. Turns out that the current project did not meet Bethesda and Id Software's set standards (just like Prey 2… Hey, where is that game Bethesda?) with the direct statement saying that the development "did not go well".
Doom 4 started development around 2007 on Id Tech 5. A reveal was teased on a annual basis, with a new logo for the series (above) being shown at Quakecon 2011. There is no current date or information on the upcoming Doom 4 project, but the original project was set to be more action than horror with the game taking place on Earth similar to Doom II: Hell on Earth.
But at least we will probably still get Doom 4, unlike the sequel to 2011's Rage. Rage 2 have been canceled and the DLC plans have been largely downsized because of underwhelming sales of the original game, another game I really enjoyed.
Today is a sad day for videogames, at least for me. Damn, on Doom's 20th Annversary… Can we at least get a HD release of Doom 64 to hold us over?

Judge: Teen suspect in Hudson case stays an 'adult'
Oct 25, 2012 - By Christina George, Staff Writer
Charges against the youngest defendant in the Hudson double-homicide case will proceed to District Court after a judge this week denied a request to transfer the case to juvenile court.
"Judge Tyler's decision made it clear the motion filed by the defendant was denied," Fremont County Attorney Brian Varn said in an interview Thursday morning.
Varn said he was informed about Judge Marvin L. Tyler's decision Wednesday afternoon concerning Jude Blackburn, 16, of Riverton.
A document of the decision was unavailable Thursday.
"Given the magnitude of the crime and what has been accused, despite his age, we are pleased with the opportunity to show what happened that night," Varn said.
One of five
The teen is one of five suspects charged in the Nov. 15, 2011 murders of Eric Clinton Likes, 42, and his girlfriend Elva Charlotte Quiver, 20, at Likes's trailer house in Hudson. Allegations also include a subsequent robbery and arson at the residence.
Prosecutors charged Blackburn as an adult. He faces a count of first-degree arson and two counts each of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, aggravated robbery and conspiracy to commit aggravated robbery.
Public defenders Jamie M. Woolsey of Casper and Robert L. Stepans of Jackson filed the transfer motion in April.
In their motion, Woolsey and Stepans cited their client's age as one of the reasons for the requested transfer. Blackburn was 15 years old at the time of the crimes.
They also asserted there to be a "reasonable likelihood" Blackburn could be rehabilitated by use of procedures, services and facilities that are only available to juvenile court.
District Court Judge Norman E. Young granted a continuance for Blackburn's May 10
arraignment until a decision was rendered on the motion to transfer the case to juvenile court.
Young also ordered Judge Tyler to preside over and determine the motion to transfer.
Tyler held a full day of court in August to hear the request. Proceedings were held behind closed doors given Blackburn's age.
"This was a difficult case," Varn said, adding that the defense did a "spectacular job."
"The judge had a hard decision to make," Varn continued. "It doesn't mean we will win at trial, it just means we have the opportunity to tell the full story on what happened."
He also commended his two deputy attorneys Patrick LeBrun and Ember Oakley.
"They were equally engaged in refuting the defense and did a spectacular job keeping their eye on the ball," he said. "I am proud of the skills and professionalism they showed. This was a hard case for the court, and I think they did a really good job."
Varn said the next step is for his office to file a motion for Blackburn to be arraigned in District Court so the case can be put back on the trial stack.

Yeah...whatever. They can't predict this crap this far in advance! Take it with a grain of salt folks.
Considering that the hurricane season hasn't "officially" started yet and there's already been 1 tropical storm in the Atlantic and there's a hurricane in the Pacific, I think we can throw any definition of "normal season" out the widow.
Wait a minute. NOAA has been right in the past. Okay but just a couple of times and after re-evaluating or increasing the number a time or two. What did they do this time, spin the magic wheel? There are so many things that effect our weather that they are just guessing. Some run in cycles of a few years, 13 years, 26 years, 100s of years or even thousands of years, then there are random events. There is only a 50/50 chance of them being right, either they are or they are not. This is like predicting a sunny July 4th of 2012.

Jersey Shore
Snooki Reveals Her Real Weight: Is She Slimming Down Too Fast?
Jersey Shore's Snooki was full of revelations on Tuesday night's Tonight Show. She told host Jay Leno that ghosts have been trying to feel her chest, that her cats are her "best friends," and that she weighs a teeny-tiny 103 pounds.
As we reported earlier, Snooki's goal of reaching 98 pounds (as she told GQ Magazine) is a little extreme, even for a tiny meatball. In fact, her current weight of 103 pounds is exactly the recommended healthy weight for her 4'9" frame. Should we be worried that Snooks is losing a little too much, and bordering on scary-skinny terrirtory?
Judging from this clip, we're actually more worried that most of the weight is in her bling, bootie platforms, boobs and that new hairdo, which has extensions reaching down to her butt.

First look at no huddlePosted by on July 31, 2012 – 9:47 pm
Steelers' players continue to learn Todd Haley's offense, putting some of that to the test on Tuesday when they ran the no huddle in practice.
"I think as a staff, myself included, we feel that there's been enough good to feel good about the direction we're going in," said Haley before practice. "There's a lot of work to do. We're still reinstalling a bunch of the things from the spring so that they all hear it for the third time.
"To this point, today's a big day. We have a lot of no huddle, running and passing out there today. So this will be a big day for us because whether it's two-minute or true no huddle situations, it will be a big part of our offense one way or another. But to this point there is a lot to clean up still and a lot to come. But we feel good about where we are."
After practice Coach Mike Tomlin was pleased with the way things continue to progress.
"It requires some attention of course," said Tomlin. "It's new. I like where the group is. It's obvious we've made good use of our offseason time. When I'm talking about that, I mean OTAs and minicamp. But it's a process. We're going to continue to get better. We need to."
Haley said the ideal situation is to have quarterback Ben Roethlisberger calling the plays in the no huddle.
"He's shown the propensity to do that at a high level," said Haley. "This is new to him, so we're still working together on it. Ideally, if you have a quarterback like Roethlisberger and what he's done, when he's in full control, that's a good situation to be in because he's right in the middle of it, seeing what's going on. There's always communication at least in my experiences because we can communicate until the (play) clock gets to 15 (seconds).
"I could tell through the spring that Ben's got his arms around it and he likes it. You can see his eyes light up a little bit when we get in that mode. That's the sign of a great quarterback. The ones that I've been around, they want it, give me control and let me run this thing. He has the ability to do it, as he's shown in the past and through the spring. I'm just excited to see us continue working as a group and get this thing ready to go for the season."

Q: The chocolate chips in a biscuit do not appear to melt when cooked in the oven at 150 °C, but melt when left in the sun. Why?
A:The chocolate chips do melt when the biscuit is cooked. The rest of the biscuit mixture is thick enough to hold the bits of molten chocolate in their original shape inside the hot biscuit giving the impression that nothing has changed when the biscuit cools.
If you try eating one while it is still warm, you will soon see that the chocolate chips have melted.

I know quite a few home-schoolers around here, and although I enjoy public school, I really enjoy the perks of friends who host fun learning lunches for their home-schooled kids.
[caption id="attachment_898" align="aligncenter" width="448" caption="Herbs used to mask one's body odor!"][/caption]
Last week we got to tag along to a Shakespeare themed lunch. The kids had been studying the life and times of William Shakespeare, and this was the grand finale. They gave presentations, ate food of the time, and served many, many, many courses. I think though, everybody's favorite part was throwing the chicken bones on the floor. Apparently back in the day, it was customary to throw bones on the floor for the dogs. That's right, we're very educational over here at frankly entertaining!
[caption id="attachment_899" align="aligncenter" width="448" caption="Bones on the floor"][/caption]
This is the kind of thing that can easily translate to different age groups, or different themes. Am I the only one who remembers crazy dinners at Summer camp? Eating in complete silence (which I would do every day if I could!), or eating with serving utensils.
[caption id="attachment_901" align="aligncenter" width="448" caption="Imparting a little wisdom!"][/caption]
You could become the coolest parent on the block. Or, if you're like me, you can snag an invite to the cool parent's house so that you don't have to clean chicken bones off of the floor!

The following quotes are from an article titled "Obama's War on Christians" in Townhall.com
""Ronald Reagan wisely said "if we ever forget we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under." Well that day is far closer than we could ever imagine. After our country made the disastrous decision to elect President Obama, our President quickly distanced himself from the Judeo-Christian foundation of our society.
Did you know Military chaplains are no longer able to pray in the name of Jesus? Obama omits references to the Lord in traditional speeches, briefly banned bibles at Walter Reed Medical Center and Christian prayers at a national cemetery all while calling the Muslim call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on earth.""
Many people do not remember that Obama's mother was an atheist.
Obama's stepfather was a communist.
There is evidence that Obama was raised as a Muslim.
Obama is not the only liberal Democrat who resents Christianity. Liberal policies fly in the face of many Christian beliefs such as the sanctity of life. The 10 commandment may no longer be displayed in public places. Liberals have been successful in preventing Christmas carols from being played in public places as well as preventing Christians from praying in public places while Muslims are allowed to block off streets in New York City in order to pray in public.
How is this happening in a nation that is predominately Christian? Electing Barack Obama and his fellow democrats is how.
Ted Kennedy was ostensibly a catholic but he lived like a heathen and he never publicly supported his religion.

Why the first 1000 days are so vital
Your decisions on early life nutrition are far more powerful than you might have thought. more
It's just as important that your child eat healthy lunches and snacks at school as it is when she's at home. Nutritious school lunches are important as they will provide the fuel for her learning. Try encouraging your child to be involved in the preparation of her lunch each day - if she has a say into what's going into her lunchbox each day, she'll be more likely to eat it.
Because school lunch time is short, and your child may be more interested in playing with her friends than eating, it's best to stick to a lunch that:
For all these reasons, it's no wonder that the humble sandwich is still the mainstay of most schoolyard lunches.
When you're packing the lunch box, try to include:
Bread, in the form of a sandwich, is the most common lunch box food for kids. If your child is stuck on having a sandwich each day but is sick of what you are giving her, try changing the type of bread you put her vegemite on. There's a range of breads that include:

Researcher accused of scientific misconduct by gay rights activistsBy
University of Texas sociologist Mark Regnerus' study on the social and mental-health of children raised in heterosexual households versus those raised in homosexual households has caused a lot of controversy since being published in the July issue of Social Science Research. So much so that according to Angela O'Brien of LifeSiteNews, he is being investigated by his employer, the University of Texas, for "scientific misconduct" after receiving complaints from a number of gay rights activists, including Scott Rose, a blogger who recently sent an open letter to UT president William Powers.
Rose's letter, which can be found here, claims Regnerus is nothing more than a front man for people who want to "dehumanize and discredit gay people." Adding that Regnerus' study was "designed to make gay people look bad, through means plainly fraudulent and defamatory."
Regnerus claims he doesn't have a political axe to grind and that, as a scientist, he will "follow where the data leads." 18 notable social scientists have issued a public statement affirming the "scientific integrity of Regnerus' methods," but that isn't enough for Rose. Regnerus "took money," Rose claims, to produce a "half-baked study" for the "political exploitation and demonization of sexual minorities."
Regnerus' study lit up the blogosphere when it was first published a couple weeks ago, and some writers here at CV shared their thoughts about it.
Thomas Peters wrote that "It's time for gay marriage supporters to revisit some of their core assumptions about the reality of gay parenting and how this reflects on the wider debate about marriage."
Lauren Hoedeman similarly claimed that "Whereas previously it may have seemed warranted to embrace the view that children of homosexual parents were not in general disadvantaged relative to children of heterosexual parents, now it is clear from Dr. Marks' review that the jury is still out."
Peters and Hoedeman are both right. However, the attacks on Dr. Regnerus point to an emerging and deeply disturbing trend in American society: If you call into question the overarching narrative promulgated by our cultural, intellectual and political elites, you are instantly labeled a bigot, a racist, a homophobe, or, in this case, intellectually dishonest.
Denny Burk, an Associate Professor of Biblical Studies at Boyce College in Kentucky, wrote a great blog post about this exact topic just a few days ago. He argues that "the social pressure to abandon a Christian sexual ethic is getting more intense," but "at some point, the social pressure will transform into governmental pressure, and Christians will suffer. We will look back on moments like this one as one more step down the path of intolerance of Christian views. Mark Regnerus is in the crosshairs now, but it will be all of us before too long."
I can only pray that he is wrong.

26 thoughts on "Researcher accused of scientific misconduct by gay rights activists"
The paper that published the study found that the peer reviewers were connected to Mark Regenerus and didn't do their job. They concluded that the study should never have been published because it was flawed and false.
If you call into question the overarching narrative promulgated by the commentators on CatholicVote.org, you are instantly labeled as wrong, and often by someone who has nothing to back it up.
These writers have nothing to offer by an email account and a below average wit.
There is very seldom anything about Christianity here. Just political garbage. The situation would be laughable if they were demeaning the name Catholic in the action.
You know what ticks me off? Is that this writer claimant to be a political science professor. Anyone that knows anything can look at this paper and see that it's rigged. Even the author admitted it. He also clearly stated IN THE PAPER that the study doe not show what this author is claiming. Did you even bother to read it?
I think that Catholic Vote is going to look pretty silly at the end of all this, when the truth about this study comes fully to light. All the evidence to date shows that the study is purposefully dishonest. It was revised after it was published and financed by dubious means. Even Regenerus himself admitted it was flawed while he was doing the talk show circuit. If it was flawed, why did he allow it to be published so it could be distorted as it is above? I suspect the answer to that question is going to be unpleasant to the people that are trying to defend it.
One question for you, patback: Are you deliberately ignoring this reaction by Mark Regnerus' colleagues or were simply unaware of it?

Thank you so much for your article on Christian Academy of Carrollton and Katie Matson. As a parent of a child that attends CAC, I can say with full knowledge that Mrs. Matson and CAC are truly a blessing from God, to have right here in our community. Anyone who hasn't had the chance to meet the wonderful principal and her staff, it would be well worth the time to do so.
Thanks again for acknowledging her and the great accomplishments of her 25 years of service to our community.
Chasity Lowrance
CAC parent and coach
What does it say when someone puts antifreeze out for cats to drink, hoping to "take care of" the cats outside? Many of these are someone's pets.
Another individual or group of individuals threw a nest full of ready to hatch goose eggs into my neighborhood pond. I find this horrifyingly cruel.
I'm no genius, but how can we address the drug problem with just three deputies? Doesn't fiscal court have funds to support more officers? Why can't we have a K-9 unit? Seems like a good idea would be to use it to randomly patrol the inside and outside of our schools.
I guess anyone who owns a lot of property in our city and county would not want a tax increase, even if it would bring in the funds needed to help with the problems facing our communities.
On the morning of April 9, I woke up for work and had abdominal pain that led to a visit to the Carroll County Hospital emergency room. Upon arrival I was promptly taken to a room and evaluated. The testing began with x-rays then a C.T. scan, which showed the need for surgery.
Within no time at all the procedure was over and I was in a room to recover overnight.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank a number of individuals and organizations that made our Child Abuse Prevention Month Event a success on Friday, April 25.
The Sons of the American Legion, Squadron 41, would like to thank all that made our bicycle raffle a success.
We would like to thank the Ladies Auxiliary of Post 41, the Legion Riders, The Legion and all those that bought tickets We raised money for the local veterans and our scholarship fund. We want to congratulate Jo Ann Southworth on winning the boys bike and Ronnie Knight on winning the girls bike. We had a great time and hope all of you did also.
May is National Foster Care Month, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank foster and kinship parents in our community for their hard work and dedication to families across our region.
This month provides the opportunity to thank the foster families who provide homes and love to children who need them. Foster parents often become the substitute family for the youth, regardless of how long they stay – be it an hour or a lifetime.
The Port William Historical Society would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to the scouts and leaders from Boys Scout Troop No. 131 for their help at the Masterson House this past Saturday as we began the clean up from a burst water pipe caused by the recent cold weather.
Their help was invaluable in getting us started on the renovations necessary from the deluge. Again, to the members and leaders of Troop 131, thank you for your hard work.
Sam Burgess, President
Port William Historical Society
As a retired employee of the Carroll County school system for 31 years, I believe having school on Memorial Day is one of the most thoughtless things I have ever heard of in the school system.
Memorial Day is the day we honor all the veterans of the United States of America that have served our country for years and years. It is a day of family get-togethers.
I am writing to you because I am really confused as to why our school board members and their attorney, who is also the Commonwealth Attorney, did not protect our interest in signing the contract with Lisa James to be our superintendent.

Bye Cube - I presume you mean the Ducati voltage regulator - if so they do seem to be very poor I have one on my bike that has functioned faultless to date and covered many miles - but my other a spare from John does not put out the right voltage (however this had been lent to my mate maybe he cooked it on his harness?) He had stated both his were faulty from new and he has now bought an alternative make of voltage regulator which has proved to be much more reliable. I do think if there is an ongoing problem with Ducati VR then this is an area that needs addressed.
installed an Enduralast on my R80RT '83 on Feb 1, 2008. In the summer of 2009, I saw the odd volt spike to 18V, which lasted for a 30 sec span or so, then went away. I have an FAA-approved LED readout on my RT for voltage, so voltage is correct. After 30 secs it would pop back down to 14.2 or so, like flipping a switch. This happened infrequently enough I ignored it. Later in 2010, the occurrences happened more frequently and then one day it "stuck" at 18V, luckily when I was a block away from home. At that point I pulled my spare that I'd carried on the '86 since 2005 (the G/S, by the way, never had an issue to date) and installed the spare. To my astonishment, the problem was still there. So I pulled the G/S cube from the bike and plugged it in the RT. Problem solved…. Weird. (so I probably rode around the world with a bad spare…)
I have the cubes wired with a similar harness on both bikes, and the spare proved bad on the G/S as well.
So I don't know how unlucky one get to have a new installed spare be bad, as well as an operational one going bad too.
I exchanged a number of emails and phone calls with John, a process which cost me all credibility I'm afraid with him, as he refused to believe there was a "dual" failure and reasonably he assumed I was in the wrong.
However, he extended the ultimate service and shipped me a new cube, which when installed worked promptly.
I'm about to order a spare again, which I will install in the G/S, and take the "known good" cube as a spare on my next world trip, planning of which is putting a smile on my face these days.[/QUOTE]
