CRESTVIEW - A homeless woman is accused of snatching money from an ATM as the account holder was withdrawing it.
On Oct. 13 at about 8:15 p.m., the victim stopped at the 87 Depot on James Lee Boulevard and tried to withdraw $100 from the ATM on the premises, according to a Crestview Police Department arrest report.
As the money was being dispersed, the woman, identified as Melissa Ann Sterner, 34, no permanent addresss, grabbed it and put it in her pocket. She refused to give the money to the person who'd withdrawn it.
A records check indicated Sterner had been convicted of three prior theft charges.
She was charged with theft - third or subsequent, a felony. Her court date is Dec. 4.

Add Boxed Wine to Your Holiday List
The new generation offers premium wine at value prices.user rating
The new generation of high-quality 3-liter boxed wines means that you can always be ready for an impromptu holiday celebration. Don't mistake them for the 5-liter boxes of the past containing cheap, lower-quality wines. Referred to as "wine casks," these premium, 3-liter boxes deliver quantity (one 3-liter box is the equivalent of four 750-milliliter bottles), great value (they're approximately 40 percent less expensive than the average table wine), and great taste (vintners around the world are producing excellent varietals).
Protected by a triple-layer airtight plastic bag inside the box, which contracts as the contents are emptied over time, the wine is protected from oxygen and able to last at least four to six weeks after opening. Compare that to a bottle, which has about one to two days before descending down the path towards vinegar. Here is a range of products that is sure to please.
Wine in the Box
Black Box, an award-winning line of nine wines (starting at $21.99). Grapes are sourced from the world's top winegrowing regions, including Napa Valley, Sonoma County, Italy and New Zealand.
Bota Box, produced by Delicato Family Vineyard, offers six award-winning varieties—Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Old Vine Zinfandel ($24 each). Its Cabernet Sauvignon scored 87 Points by Wine Spectator recently.
Target developed its own proprietary brand, The Wine Cube, in 2003. The Cube has been so successful that the chain has expanded with a new 3-liter cube ($17.99) in seven varieties, a 1.5-liter Cube ($11.99) available in two varieties, and a 4-Pack ($9.99) in four varieties.
Boho Vineyards, a division of The Wine Group, uses exactly the same artisan hand-crafted winemaking techniques (night harvesting, small oak barrel aging, individual lot winemaking) for its cask wines that it does for its bottles. Available in Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot (starting at $24 per box). Also part of The Wine Group, Killer Juice (about $20 a box) and Pinot Evil (about $15 a box) are serving up good wine with fun packaging.
From the Tank by Estezargues offers a Côtes du Rhône brand with a white and a red ($40 each), and is made of the exact same quality wine as you'll find in its bottles that are shipped to the U.S. from its vineyard in Vignerons d'Estézargues, France. –Denise Shoukas

Celestial Event Reviews
Most of the following are "verified" reviews from sites like Martha Stewart's Wedding Wire and Gigmasters. Some of our happy clients have agreed to provide a personal reference and contact information for those seriously considering Celestial Event.
Lou was the best DJ I have ever encountered at a party or event. He will put the FUN in your party....all the people at our event really enjoyed his music! He even got this stuffy little old lady up dancing....He made us lol,dance,conga,,,,,,Everyone usually has enough to worry about the night of the big event.With Lou he made me worry a lot less.He has some great ideas and gives great support. He is also very flexible and will go with the flow...I will hire him again and again....Thanks for making our Awards Banquet a successGia Gutierrez for FQHA
We loved having Celestial Event be a part of our wedding and reception! Lou and Katja had so many wonderful ideas and suggestions. Our guests can't stop talking about how personal and special our wedding was. You won't be disappointed if you choose to make Celestial Event a part of your special day!Jessica and LaneSeptember 2012
Celestial Event provided uplighting and spotlighting at our reception at a historic building. The uplighting really emphasized the details of the building and gave the reception sense of professional detail that I thought only happens on celebrity wedding shows. It really added to the romantic feel of the reception and the spotlighting helped to draw people's attention at key times. The pictures of the event were so beautiful too with the spotlighting on our first dance. The uplighting also made for some amazing pictures of guests at the reception. Thank you so much for providing this service! We are so glad that we went with these lighting options!
LindseyAugust 2012
This company was great! They helped us plan everything from start to finish and had really creative ideas for the music and events during our wedding. They really put out minds at ease and made our wedding as unique and as individualized as it could be! Thanks!!
Ann and DustyAugust 2012
Dear Lou and Katja,
This note is so over due! We want to thank you both to know how thankful we are for having you involved in our Wedding. You made our Dream Wedding possible by helping us personalize and literally bring it to life. We heard from nearly everyone of our guests, that our Wedding was the BEST they had ever experienced. I believe that it was because of you Two. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We could not have imagined a greater day!
We love you, Kalee, Nolan & SheaAugust 2012
Hi Lou and Katja. I apologize for our delay in sending you a BIG THANK YOU from Dan and I. We really enjoyed working with you at the wedding. You both put in a lot of time and effort to make our wedding memorable, fun, and perfect. We can't thank you enough for that. The photo booth was a huge hit. We love the album you gave us and look at it often. I know our guests had a blast with it. We had numerous guests tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they had been to and that Lou was the best DJ they have seen. Thanks for keeping the show moving and for adding your special touches throughout. You two really are exceptional, thanks for everything.Have a great summer and good luck with your busy wedding season.Thanks again!Jackie and Dan , 06/02/2012 Mt Princeton Hotsprings
Celestial Event and Lou were absolutely fabulous! Lou not only allowed us to postpone his services when we had to postpone our ceremony but exceeded all of our expectations. We were able to meet with Lou several times so that we could get to know him and he would have a better idea of us as a couple. We gave Lou ideas of the music we liked and everything he played was just perfect! The best part of having Lou was the unique ideas he was able to provide to our ceremony such as the "shoe game"! All of our guests loved it and we were able to showcase ourselves and our love for everyone. Celestial Events will make your big day magical! I cannot recommend Lou highly enough!!
Kellie and JordanMay 2013Celestial Event was the best DJ/MC we've ever seen. Lou & Katja were the best by far! They were very involved in helping us create the reception entertainment my husband & I had hoped and dreamt of. I would definitely recommend them to friends & family! Our friends are still raving about how our reception is going to be hard to beat. We've gone to a few more family weddings after ours and the DJ did nothing! It is incredible how just getting to know your vendor helps create the atmosphere. Thank you Lou & Katja again for the best and most memorable day of our lives!
Ashley and Patrick Golden CO 07/30/2011
Lou and Katja at Celestial Event did a WONDERFUL job for our wedding. It was more like hiring a wedding coordinator/entertainer then just hiring "a DJ." First of all, they met with us face to face a couple times before the wedding to plan everything out. They went over everything from schedule to layout of the reception and ceremony, they also were a great resource on stuff like how many bottles of champagne we would need to how many people would fit at each table. They had a lot of suggestions that we would have never thought about, like the key game, the shoe game (a huge hit), and personalized intros, which made our wedding so unique and special. They also came to our rehearsal and coordinated the whole thing so we know what to do on the big day. Everything ran so smoothly, we couldn't have asked for better help. I would highly reccomend them to any of my friends. Also as an added bonus, Katja was running around taking pictures and is sending them to us so we will have more memories to add to our collection. If you need a reference for them, feel free to ask Lou for my number and I can tell you more!
Jennifer and Bret 10/08/2011 Buena Vista Heritage, Court House
Lou and his wife Katia made our daughter's wedding so much easier and special for us. They handled so many little things. They are like having another wedding coordinator! They were there at the rehearsal, the ceremony, and for the reception. To say they are professional is an understatement. Lou wore a tux! They do much more than play music. They introduced the wedding party in style, coordinated dances and special events, and knew just the right music to play at just the right time. They are very flexible and spent plenty of time with our daughter and fiancée to know what music they liked and wanted, and plan anything out of the ordinary. They have lots of ideas to have a very special reception. Katia ran a photo booth during the reception which was a big hit as well. We had so many people comment on how nice Lou and Katia were during and after the reception. We highly recommend them!
Monte (Father of the Bride) 9/24/2011 Mt. Princeton Hotsprings Resort
Lou was absolutely the best DJ/Master of Ceremonies/Entertainer that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I had people in their sixties and twenties coming up to me saying in their experience of all their weddings (sometimes over 40) that Lou/Celestial Event was the best ever, and they were just amazed. The reception was so small, and Lou made everyone feel so welcomed, entertained, and interested. I had people laughing so hard they cried, and took his ideas and practices for their own weddings. I literally heard more about the DJ than I heard about anything else. My husband and I were blessed to have found someone this great and get a referral from our venue to him. He was worth every cent. His pricing is such an amazing value for everything you get out of it. He is a reception coordinator, the entertainment, and the one you can count on to get what you want done. I am 100% satisfied with Lou and Celestial Event, and I am not easy to please. He is one of the only people I know that could appeal to every age group. I would recommend him and this company in a heart beat!
Natalie and Loren 7/10/2011 Mt. Princeton Hotsprings Resort
Dear Lou and Katja,
Kristine and I would like to express our sincere appreciation for assisting us in making our reception special with your entertainment, comedy, fantastic music and most of all your true partnership. The addition of the Photobooth was a certain hit. with all our guests and we are thankful it was part of your repertoire. We ar e certain that it wouldn't have been this delightful for us or our guests without Celestial Event managing what turned out to be a whimsical evening for all!
Warmest Regards, Ed and Kristine 26 May 2011, Hyatt Regency Tech Center Denver
Lou was the DJ for our September 18th 2010 wedding at Mount Princeton Hot Springs. He was great. He helped me with all my events, was early to the rehearsal and the wedding and was such a big help. He is very organized and professional. Lou knows how to keep the party going. I would highly recommend Celestial Event for your wedding DJ.

Thank you so much for everything that you have done for us. You went above and beyond. Let me know if there is anything we can do for you in the future. Kristy & Kody
Lou did an awesome job at our wedding! He did the ceremony music for us, as well as the reception music. The ceremony went perfectly, and the reception was a blast thanks to him! He kept the dance floor poppin' the whole night! (and our families and friends' don't normally dance much).While working with Lou, he always seemed excited to be doing the music for us. I think he really enjoys what he does, and this is the most important quality in a dj!!I will be recommending him to everyone in need of a dj..... Money WELL SPENT
Sarah and Charles 5/30/2009, Woodland Park, CO
DJ Lou provided an amazing service for us. We are truck drivers and the online tools to help pick out our schedule and songs was very useful as we were unable to have in person meetings. DJ Lou was also very helpful in answering all my questions by phone and he gave us great advice to make our day very special. Everyone of our guests complimented us on our choice of Celestial Events. They were very impressed by DJ Lou. Everyone also said that he made our reception one of the most enjoyable events they had ever been to.
Rebecca and Timothy, 10/12/2009 Wedding in Colorado Spring
Lou did an amazing job! He listened to what I wanted and gave me more! He has great ideas and strives for the best. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ.
Tues and Guy, 6/26/2010, Wedding Denver
Lou did such a wonderful job with our reception!!! He met with us several times before the event and made it really really easy to put everything together!! He provided us with worksheets that helped us plan the order of events, and he had a ton of great ideas!!!! We were very pleased with his service!!! I didn't have to worry about a thing at the reception which really helped our big day go smoothly. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and we got alot of compliments on how well planned and relaxed the reception was!!Thanks Lou!!!!!
Aaron and Sarah, 4/10/2010, Wedding in Salida
We were more than pleased with Celestial Event. Lou was an awesome DJ and he really listened to our needs. Lou was not only a great DJ and kept the reception exciting, he also helped us in planning the order of our wedding and reception with the tools and planning sheets that he had to offer. We knew that Celestial Event was exactly what we were looking for the first time we spoke to Lou on the phone because he spent time with us and went over many of details with us and answered all of our questions, we were not able to get from anyone else. Everyone bragged about how great our DJ was and we would highly recommend him.
Steve R, 10/11/2008, Wedding, Denver, CO
Lou did an excellent job with the music for our wedding. He was professional, on time and had great ideas to help us with our wedding music. He was also helpful in creating the timeline for the reception. He played the music on our playlist and kept the party going. I would recommend him for your DJ/Wedding music needs.
Stacey and Charles, 7/31/2010 Wedding Salida
Lou just DJ'd MC'd our wedding on June 5, 2010 and he was AMAZING! He was a complete lifesaver and took any concerns about the flow of the wedding, cocktail hour, dinner, reception out of our minds. The day was a whirlwind, but I can honestly say that Lou kept it flowing effortlessly. With so many people wanting to share their congratulations and well wishes, Lou made sure we stayed on track, getting people excited for...the Entrance, the Kissing Game, the Newlywed Game, the Dances, the Garter Ceremony, the Snow Ball and making sure we were there and ready! There was never a thought about when something was happening. We just listened for Lou or he found us. In hindsight, I realize how much coordination a wedding takes, and Lou did all of that. His hours spent on the phone with us getting details about our style, what we visualized, our wedding party history (and ours) and our family we're well utilized and the upfront effort he spent was obvious!People continue to comment about how great and personable he was and how his antics encouraged people to mingle and socialize and have fun! We had numerous comments that this was the best wedding people had ever attended. I believe that and know without a doubt that it would NEVER have been such a fun afternoon/evening for everyone without Lou at the helm. My only regret is that even adding and extra hour onto the reception (ending at 11pm), everything ended too soon. I have never seen so many of my family dancing and having a good time together, ever. It really was a night full of wonderful memories!
Sarah and Eric, 6/05/2010, Wedding, Ouray
Lou was the best DJ we could have asked for. He quite literally made our reception. It was so much fun! He kept things moving so there was no down time at all. He is just a very creative, fun guy. Several of our guests commented that he was one of the best DJ's they'd ever seen. Thanks, Lou!
Kelly , 9/26/2009 Wedding in Salida
Lou did an outstanding job. My guests loved him. He kept my wedding fun and upbeat, which was a hard thing to do since I had a small wedding made up mostly of old people. He had great ideas for a bouquet toss that was untraditional since I only had 3 single women at my wedding reception. He also had us play a newlywed game that was fun and entertained everyone there. He went above and beyond by dealing with my rude and mostly absent wedding coordinator and did a great job of trying to keep my wedding on time. I thank him and all he did at my wedding. Without him it may have been a disaster. I recommend him to anyone for any occasion. Thank you Lou.
Rebecca and Travis 9/19/2009 Wedding in Evergreen, CO
Lou was wonderful. He went above and beyond our expectations! We really enjoyed "our story" that Lou presented prior to our toast. We also loved the full screen playing back pictures of our beach wedding during the reception. Lou and Katja made our day run smoothly and we could not thank them enough. Sarah K, 4/25/2009, Wedding, St Pete Beach, FL
Professional, friendly, and fun- Lou made the party! It was by far the most fun I have ever had at a wedding, which I have been told is a difficult feat given that it was my wedding. Lou ensured that everything ran smoothly, made sure that everyone was included, and even got creative with props. We have received countless compliments about how great of a time everyone had
Bradley 5/16/2009, WeddingMt. Princeton Hot Springs Resort, Colorado
Lou did a great job and I would recommend him again. His best qualities were:People loved the music He read the situations well and knew what the crowd would like The props were really fun The soft music was niceGreat equipment Lou is very nice, professional, and seems to care a great deal about the couple and their happiness
Emily A., 2008, Salida, CO
Sarah and I would highly recommend Lou for any occasion. He was more than we'd hoped for. He was an immense help at the rehearsal and even made an extra 35 mile trip to join us for the rehearsal dinner. The music for the ceremony was perfect, bringing more than a few to tears. As for the reception, Lou throws one hell of a party. Everyone had a fantastic time and I do not think I have danced that much my entire life. Without a doubt, if you are looking for a personable, affordable DJ and Master of Ceremonies, Lou is your guy. Sincerely, Chuck and Sarah Charles A, 5/30/2009, Wedding, Woodland Park, CO

It was great to see you both at Dave and Ann Johnson's "Petzafest" this year benefiting The Ark-Valley Human Society, Inc. You assisted in raising $2,500. The money will help us provide compassionate care for unwanted animals that come to the shelters when there is no other place for them to turn. Lou's participation as Master of Ceremonies added a lot of humor and fun to the event. More than severaln people commented to me regarding the improvement in the entertainment quotient at this year's event when compared to last year. Keith Krebs, Board of Directors AVHS,Inc.

Low blood levels of Vitamin D mean increased risk of depression for people over the age of 65. The risks are worse for women than for men, suggesting that women in fact need higher tissue levels of this vitamin than men do. People over the age of 65 also have aging skin receptors, so that it is harder for them to absorb Vitamin D from sunlight. (It is the UV-B type of sunlight that triggers our skin receptors to produce vitamin D.) Researchers from the US National Institute on Aging have been looking at the causal pathway between depression and Vitamin D deficiency. In 2008, Dutch scientists performed similar studies. They found that low levels of D and higher blood levels of the parathyroid hormone (PTH) were associated with higher rates of depression among 1,282 community residents aged between 65 and 95. We already know that Vitamin D directly affects proteins in the brain associated with memory, cognition, learning, motor control and social behavior. The US Institute study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism now suggests that low Vitamin D levels will pose mood disorder problems for seniors, and in particular, women over the age of 65.

TWO opposition MMD members of Parliament (MPs) serving in Government have said no amount of pressure will stop them from pursuing their dreams of serving the people.
The two MPs said in separate interviews yesterday that time for political campaigns was long gone and that energies should be directed towards serving the majority of Zambians.
Ikeleng'i MP Elijah Muchima said it was now time to concentrate on matters that affected the people instead of politicking.
Mr Muchima who is Lands, Natural Resources and Environment Deputy Minister said the MMD was a champion of democracy in Zambia and should appreciate the fact the republican Constitution allowed for the appointment of opposition political party leaders to ministerial positions.
"There is no harm for us (MMD MPs) to be appointed as deputy ministers. We must lobby for development and it will not help the country in any way if we just want to criticise for the sake of criticism.
"For me, I really don't regret my action. Development of Zambia and that of my constituency is important," he said.
Mr Muchima said he had at one time spoken to constituency officials from the MMD, United Party for National Development (UPND) and Patriotic Front (PF) on the need for them to work together and that they had agreed to do so..
Solwezi East MP Richard Taima said he was aware that some officials were going to his constituency to mislead the electorate.
Mr Taima who is Commerce, Trade and Industry deputy minister said he had remained loyal to the MMD and he had continued to remit his monthly contributions to the party.
He said that his victory in Solwezi East was done on a clean slate and was ready to defend his seat.
"I am very ready to defend the position. I am a peoples choice and won on a clean slate," he said.
He however said he did not support the idea of causing unnecessary by -elections as they were a cost to taxpayers money.
Other MMD MPs in Government are Keith Mukata (Chilanga), Josephine Limata (Luampa), Dr. Patrick Chikusu (Katuba), David Phiri (Mkaika), Nicholas Banda (Kapoche), Patrick Ngoma (Feira) and Forrie Tembo (Nyimba).

Child slavery - a secret ingredient in Valentine's Day chocolates?
Kate Bradshaw
WMNF Drive-Time News Friday | Listen to this entire show:
As Valentineâs Day looms, those who celebrate it may venture into a supermarket and pick up a heart-shaped cardboard box of chocolates. Most chocolate enthusiasts probably donât know thereâs a brutal side to those little sweets that have become so synonymous with love this time of year. Human trafficking plays a key role in the multi-billion dollar cocoa industry, but thereâs little will on the part of corporations to do anything about it.
The 50 million pounds of chocolate Americans consume over Valentines Day may be hazardous to something besides your health. Forty-six percent of the worldâs cocoa crop comes from the Ivory Coast, or Cote DâIvoire. Cocoa planters there use child labor to meet industry demands. Some are brought in from neighboring countries; sometimes sold by their parents. A 2010 film documenting the practice opens at a chocolate industry conference. Journalist Miki Mistrati asks attendees where cocoa â a key ingredient in chocolate â comes from.
Chocolate industry leaders tell Mistrati they know nothing about the documented practice of forcing children to work twelve to fourteen hour days with little food or sleep, subject to confinement and beatings. Mistrati then heads to Cote DâIvoire, where he goes undercover to expose numerous cases of human trafficking within the cocoa industry. The film recently screened at Stetson University College of Law in Gulfport. During a panel discussion that followed, Giselle Rodriguez of the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking said paying adult field workers a decent wage would create an environment where parents donât feel they had to sell their kids to the cocoa industry.
- Roberto Romano, one of the filmâs directors, joined the discussion via Skype. He said itâs not likely a regulation cutting into the industryâs profits would fly. He said the cocoa constitutes nearly a quarter of Cote DâIvoireâs exports, and that it needs the industry in order to exist as an international economic entity.
Romano said the only way to tackle the problem is to have a unified effort among entities like the International Labor Organization and the US Department of Labor. He said the US Congress passed the Harken-Engel Protocol in 2001, which would have dealt directly with child labor in Cote DâIvoire. Romano said the International agreement would have included a mandatory âFair Tradeâ-like labeling initiative, but lost its kick upon contact with the Washington political machine.
If the political will to punish those who violate internationally-observed human rights standards is nonexistent, some believe economic will on the part of consumers might suffice. The panel tackled the question of whether boycotting cocoa products with no clear certification of ethical labor practices would really help end child labor at the African countryâs cocoa plantations. Law professor and business ethics expert Clark Furlow said starving the industry would just make things worse for laborers in Cote DâIvoire.
On the other hand, labor lawyer Peter Robb said, consumers in rich countries can pressure corporations like Nestle, Cargill, Kraft, and Archer Daniels Midland into adopting ethics guidelines for cocoa suppliers.
Giselle Rodriguez of the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking said taking the industry to task may prove challenging, however, given that even agriculture operations the US are immune to child labor laws.
To find out more about child labor in the cocoa industry, go to laborrights.org. There youâll find information on chocolate companies, their cocoa suppliers, and where to find certified Fair Trade chocolate.comments powered by Disqus

Mogadishu — Initial reports indicated that " French hostages in Somalia are split up between two Islamist extremist groups" -- Al-Shabab and Hizbul Islam . Now both hostages are in the hands of Al- Shabab, and may face a Sharia trial.
The kidnapping of the two security consultants has dented the confidence of French government in Somalia's Transitional Federal Government .
"The kidnapping in Mogadishu on 14 July of two French intelligence agents, who are now in the hands of the Al Shabaab and Hizbul Islam Islamist groups is a clear indication of how delicate - and even dangerous - it is to consider the [sic] Somalian Transitional Federal Government (TFG) as a government like any other government," reports The Indian Ocean Newsletter.
Is there a secret news-black out on the French hostages in Somalia? There are rumours that the Somali Minster of Interior, Sheikh Abdulkadir Ali Omar , may be sacked because militia who kidnapped the two French men hail from same clan as the Interior Minister's. Sheikh Abdulkadir remained in Mogadishu during the insurgency against the TFG.
He was coordinating attacks on the TFG ad Ethiopian forces that were backing Somalia's federal movement. He was appointed a minster of interiors after sheikh Sharif Sharif Ahmed, former head of the Alliance for the Reliberation of Somalia, was elected the president of Transitional Federal Government of Somalia in January.

This form of hepatic Porphyria is most common in South Africans of Dutch ancestry. It is relatively uncommon elsewhere. It is an autosomal dominant disorder and may produce acute attacks (as in AIP) as well as chronic skin photosensitivity. The deficient enzyme is protoporphyrinogen oxidase. In acute attacks, urine PBG is increased as in AIP. Diagnosis of latent carriers is made by finding excess coproporphyrin in urine and both coproporphyrin and protoporphyrin in feces, or by DNA mutation analysis (see AIP). The most sensitive screening test for VP is probably a plasma porphyrin assay. In patients with skin manifestations, it is important to distinguish VP or HCP from PCT, because treatment by phlebotomy or low-dose chloroquine is ineffective in VP and HCP. Acute attacks are managed and may be prevented as in AIP.

Nothing special this round actually that I didn't allready said in the initial round. Still, some small notes
Sogbad: I copied part of your post into this thread and made it a description of sorts so the general idea was clear (I only changed the first sentence, hope you don't mind ).
Insubstantial: Good to see your final entry is so much better than the initial one.

D-Holme - Thanks for the comments on my WIP. I started to work on getting the form sharpened and in focus but never had the time to bring it up to an acceptable level. Thanks for you comment too Yoitisi. I'll have to get going on the next design ASAP when it comes out. - and I see it has .
D-Holme - Your design is really inspiring. The layout is very clean and the main image really shows a lot of depth with the wintery environment. Very well engineered and I really like the technical description and plot. Nice 3D rendering for the base. Do you also work in Z-Brush when making your models? I hear it mentioned quite a bit here in ConceptArt.
Sogbad - It's amazing to me the level of detail you've achieved in your design. Nice depth in your forms and environment too. Beautifully rendered layout.
Dominus - This design grabs my attention every time I scroll through this post. The dynamic render of the contrasting forms and the glow of the orange and red are captivating.
insubstantial - Nice design on your engine. I like the green glow of the reactor and the orange heat radiating colors. The technical breakdown illustrations beneath the main are really well done too. Very clean and concise.
November 8th, 2007 #5
Sogbad I nearly voted for your entry because the overall design is quite original. The only thing that kept me from doing so was something about those round, white energy things on the side. To me they seemed to make thedesign a bit too fussy.
Dominus I voted for your entry because it was the cleanest, boldest entry. The design is a bit clichéd compared to sogbad's so it was a close thing though.
November 8th, 2007 #6
Voted for Insubstantial. Just the fact that he figured out the perspective and pulled out a pretty nice design too. A few perspective mistakes at the back but your doing well.
I just hope this isnt turning in a 3D contest. Its a great tool but I wanna see raw ID drawing skills.
November 8th, 2007 #7
thx fo the positive feedback. about the perspective... yeah, i noticed some mistakes, too. hadn't the time to fix it. i stomped this picture out in 2 hours.
D-Holme: your design looks as if it could be realistic, and i like how you present your train. it does what you want it to do: it looks huge and powerfull.
Sogbad: your train is nice too and it appears verry futuristic. its just alittle cunfusing to me and i dont like the green.
Dominus: this chrome-plated looking thing is impressive.
it was hard to me to come to an decision. i voted for d-holme, because he really makes it as if it could be real. his rendered picture is awesome and he described his trains funktions clear and believable.

Sogbad – I like the low perspective and the impression of motion. My only concern is the design is perhaps not truly a locomotive, that it should perhaps either run on tracks or pull some manner of 'train' of carriages. I'm afraid that I don't have any definite comments on the rendition, I like the style and sharpness.
Dominus – The loose style is very attractive and there is a nice range of light with a strong yet simple presentation. I think overall the strength of the design might be a little lost due to the style of rendition and the lack of any definition or description. Although at the end of the day it is fairly easy to imagine how it would work.
Insubstantial – I like the complete image, it shows the design off much better than the initial basic projections. The light works well across the metal. Some of the perspective seems a little off – along the top of the reactor core and the wheels.
Thank you all for the comments.
Looking at it now it think I should have made my image more saturated with stronger blue tones. I'd have like to give a stronger impression of speed.
Muleskinner – No, I haven't used Z-Brush, this piece was modelled in Solidworks and Rhino, then although does matter as much for a base image it was rendered in Maxwell

"Mach", I wrote mAch! , I supose I was thinking in spanish.
Ok, I have to vote so I´ll try to be fair instead attending to my own taste.
D-Holme, the design I like the best, because of shapes and development, but in my opinion 3d modeling has clearly advantage over 2d . I'm agree using it ( in professional concept/artwork/development obviously, nothing to say about that) as base but I think the main work would have to be done clearly with 2d rendering, and I'm not sure about that in your piece .
Dominus, I like a lot the nose, elegant, aggressive, powerfull, not so the rear of the locomotive. I think I remember you said this was a quick sketch, I'm sure It will be brilliant if next time you can scratch some more time to your final entry.
Insubstantial, It's a pity you haven't had more time, in spite of that your piece has nice quality and good appearance. About perspective, you know, it's already said. Hope see something more soon.
Sogbad, for me the best rendering and very original idea, not sure about if there are 3d elements but that's the thing, I'm not sure.
My mind seems to be not exactly were today is my head so excuse me If there is some mistake in my English.

Exploitation and Public Announcements
Status of this Notice: Final
Revision History
Cisco Security Procedures
A specifically crafted Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection to a telnet or reverse telnet port of a Cisco device running Internetwork Operating System (IOS)® may block further telnet, reverse telnet, Remote Shell (RSH), Secure Shell (SSH), and in some cases Hypertext Transport Protocol (HTTP) access to the Cisco device. Data Link Switching (DLSw) and protocol translation connections may also be affected. Telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH, DLSw and protocol translation sessions established prior to exploitation are not affected.
All other device services will operate normally. Services such as packet forwarding (excluding DLSw and protocol translation per above), routing protocols and all other communication to and through the device are not affected.
Cisco has made free software available to address this vulnerability. Workarounds, identified below, are available that protect against this vulnerability.
This vulnerability is documented in Cisco bug ID CSCef46191 ( registered customers only) .
This Advisory is available at http://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20040827-telnet.
This section provides details on affected products.
This vulnerability affects all Cisco devices that permit access via telnet or reverse telnet. Any IOS train without specific fixed releases listed in the Software Versions and Fixes section should be considered vulnerable.
IOS Release trains confirmed to be affected are 9.x, 10.x, 11.x and 12.x .
Cisco products that do not run IOS are not affected.
Telnet, RSH and SSH are used for remote management of Cisco IOS devices. The SSH protocol is also used for Secure Copy (SCP), which allows an encryption-protected transfer of files to and from Cisco devices.
Data-link switching (DLSw) provides a means of transporting IBM Systems Network Architecture (SNA) and network basic input/output system (NetBIOS) traffic over an IP network. It serves as an alternative to source-route bridging (SRB), a protocol for transporting SNA and NetBIOS traffic in Token Ring environments that was widely deployed before the introduction of DLSw.
For more information on DLSw, refer to the following URL:
Protocol translation is a method to connect a host running one protocol (such as Telnet with TCP/IP) to a host running another protocol (such as LAT). This process allows devices running dissimilar protocols—such as X.25 and TCP/IP—to communicate.
For more information on protocol translation, refer to the following URL:
Services operating over IPv4 and IPv6 are similarly affected.
HTTP is also used for management of certain Cisco devices. IOS versions prior to12.2(15)T include HTTP server version 1.0, which, if configured, will be unresponsive on a device that is under exploitation. IOS versions after and including 12.2(15)T include HTTP server version 1.1, which is unaffected.
To determine the version of the IOS HTTP server included with the IOS image, the command show subsys name http can be used (the show subsys command requires enable access to execute):
Router# show subsys name http
Class Version
http Protocol 1.001.001
Router# show subsys name http
Class Version
http Protocol 1.001.001
The above output shows that HTTP server version 1.1 is included.
Router# show subsys name http
Class Version
http Protocol 1.000.001
Router# show subsys name http
Class Version
http Protocol 1.000.001
The above output shows that HTTP server version 1.0 is included.
Reverse telnet is a feature that allows you to telnet to a Cisco device and then connect to a third device through an asynchronous serial connection; this configuration is often referred to as providing 'console server' functionality for connected devices such as hosts and router/switches as a form of out-of-band (OOB) management. For more information on reverse telnet, consult the following documents:
Cisco devices that are operating as a reverse telnet server may have ports open in the ranges of:
After a specially crafted TCP connection to an IOS device on TCP port 23 or the reverse telnet ports listed above, all subsequent telnet, reverse telnet, RSH (TCP port 514), SSH, SCP (SSH and SCP use TCP port 22), DLSw (TCP ports 2065 through 2067), protocol translation, and in some cases HTTP (TCP port 80) connections to the device experiencing exploitation will be unsuccessful. Any telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH, SCP, DLSw, protocol translation, and HTTP sessions that are already established with the device will continue to function properly.
In Cisco IOS, telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH, SCP, DLSw, protocol translation and some HTTP sessions are handled by a virtual terminal (VTY). Each telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH and SCP, DLSw and protocol translation session session consumes a VTY. After successful exploitation, the Cisco device can no longer accept any subsequent VTY connections.
Though it is not possible to establish new telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH, SCP, DLSw, protocol translation or HTTP connections to the device after a successful exploitation, the device is only vulnerable on TCP port 23 and the reverse telnet ports listed above.
A successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires a complete 3-way TCP handshake, which makes it very difficult to spoof the source IP address.
Only remote access services that use VTYs are affected. This includes telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH, SCP, DLSw, protocol translation and version 1.0 of the HTTP server. Other device services including, but not limited to, routing protocols, TACACS/RADIUS, Voice over IP (VoIP) and packet forwarding (excluding DLSw and protocol translation) are not affected.
This vulnerability is addressed by Cisco bug ID:
Exploitation of this vulnerability may result in the denial of new telnet, reverse telnet, RSH, SSH, SCP, DLSw, protocol translation and HTTP connections to a device running IOS. Other access to the device via the console or SNMP is not affected. The device will remain in this state until the problematic TCP connection is cleared, or the device is reloaded (which will clear the problematic session). If no other access methods are available, exploitation of this vulnerability could deny remote access to the device.
Depending on your network architecture, workarounds may be available to mitigate this vulnerability. See below for fixed software that repairs this vulnerability.
Cisco is providing fixes for this vulnerability in all currently maintained IOS releases. No software upgrade is required in order to mitigate this vulnerability. See the information below regarding the available configuration workarounds. The software fixes are appearing in regularly scheduled maintenance releases of IOS software.
As more fixed software becomes available, Cisco will update this section of the advisory.
To determine the software running on a Cisco product, log in to the device and issue the show version command to display the system banner. Cisco IOS software will identify itself as "Internetwork Operating System Software" or simply "IOS®". On the next line of output, the image name will be displayed between parentheses, followed by "Version" and the IOS release name. Other Cisco devices will not have the show version command or will give different output.
The following example identifies a Cisco product running IOS release 12.0(3) with an installed image name of C2500-IS-L:
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (TM)
2500 Software (C2500-IS-L), Version 12.0(3), RELEASE SOFTWARE
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (TM)
2500 Software (C2500-IS-L), Version 12.0(3), RELEASE SOFTWARE
The release train label is "12.0".
The next example shows a product running IOS release 12.0(2a)T1 with an image name of C2600-JS-MZ:
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm)
C2600 Software (C2600-JS-MZ), Version 12.0(2a)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm)
C2600 Software (C2600-JS-MZ), Version 12.0(2a)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
Additional information about Cisco IOS Banners is available at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/620/1.html#3.
Each row of the Cisco IOS software table (below) describes a release train and the platforms or products for which it is intended. If a given release train is vulnerable, then the earliest possible releases that contain the fix (the "First Fixed Release") and the anticipated date of availability for each are listed in the "Rebuild" and "Maintenance" columns. A device running a release in the given train that is earlier than the release in a specific column (less than the First Fixed Release) is known to be vulnerable. The release should be upgraded at least to the indicated release or a later version (greater than or equal to the First Fixed Release label). When selecting a release, keep in mind the following definitions:
Maintenance: Most heavily tested, stable, and highly recommended release of a release train in any given row of the table.
Rebuild: Constructed from the previous maintenance or major release in the same train, it contains the fix for a specific defect. Although it receives less testing, it contains only the minimal changes necessary to repair the vulnerability.
In all cases, customers should exercise caution to confirm that the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new software release. If the information is not clear, contact the Cisco TAC for assistance as shown in the Obtaining Fixed Software section below.
More information on Cisco IOS software release names and abbreviations is available at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/620/1.html.
The fixes will be available at the Software Center located at http://www.cisco.com/tacpage/sw-center/.
For software installation and upgrade procedures, see http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6350/tsd_products_support_install_and_upgrade.html.

The effectiveness of any workaround is dependent on specific customer situations such as product mix, network topology, traffic behavior, and organizational mission. Customers should consult with their service provider or support organization to ensure any applied workaround is the most appropriate for use in the intended network before it is deployed.
Mitigation Strategies
Not all of the mitigation strategies listed will work for all customers. Some of the workarounds listed are dependent on which versions and feature-sets of IOS you have in your network.
Enabling SSH and disabling telnet
Note: SSH support is only available in certain IOS feature sets and platforms
Cisco devices that support SSH can enable it by following the steps listed here:
To disable telnet access to the device, configure the following on all your VTY lines:
Router(config)# line vty 0 4
Router(config-line)# transport input ssh
Router(config)# line vty 0 4
Router(config-line)# transport input ssh
Note: Even if SSH is enabled, the IOS device is not protected until telnet access is disabled.
Configuring a VTY Access Class
Note: Cisco Catalyst switch platforms that contain any version of the Route Switch Module (RSM), Route Switch Feature Card (RSFC), Multilayer Switch Module (MSM) or Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC) are able to connect to these modules from the switch Supervisor module using the 'session' command. Although the 'session' command uses telnet internally to connect to the MSM/MSFC, it is not restricted by VTY ACLs.
It is possible to limit the exposure of the Cisco device by applying a VTY access class to permit only known, trusted devices to connect to the device via telnet, reverse telnet and SSH.
For more information on restricting traffic to VTYs, please consult:
The following example permits access to VTYs from the 192.168.1.0/24 netblock and the single IP address 172.16.1.2 while denying access from everywhere else:
Router(config)# access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
Router(config)# access-list 1 permit host 172.16.1.2
Router(config)# line vty 0 4
Router(config-line)# access-class 1 in
Router(config)# access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
Router(config)# access-list 1 permit host 172.16.1.2
Router(config)# line vty 0 4
Router(config-line)# access-class 1 in
For devices acting as a terminal server, to apply the access class to reverse telnet ports, the access-list must be configured for the aux port and terminal lines as well:
Router(config)# line 1 <x>
Router(config-line)# access-class 1 in
Router(config)# line 1 <x>
Router(config-line)# access-class 1 in
Different Cisco platforms support different numbers of terminal lines. Check your device's configuration to determine the correct number of terminal lines for your platform.
Configuring Access Lists (ACLs)
In addition to configuring a VTY Access Class, it may be desirable to block all telnet and reverse telnet traffic destined to your network infrastructure.
Telnet and reverse telnet should be blocked as part of a Transit ACL controlling all access to the trusted network. Transit ACLs are considered a network security best practice and should be considered as a long-term addition to good network security, as well as a workaround for this specific vulnerability. The white paper entitled "Transit Access Control Lists: Filtering at Your Edge" presents guidelines and recommended deployment techniques for transit ACLs:
Configuring Infrastructure Access Lists (iACLs)
Although it is often difficult to block traffic transiting your network, it is possible to identify traffic which should never be allowed to target your infrastructure devices and block that traffic at the border of your network. Infrastructure ACLs are considered a network security best practice and should be considered as a long-term addition to good network security as well as a workaround for this specific vulnerability. The white paper entitled "Protecting Your Core: Infrastructure Protection Access Control Lists" presents guidelines and recommended deployment techniques for infrastructure protection ACLs:
Configuring Receive Access Lists (rACLs)
For distributed platforms, rACLs may be an option starting in Cisco IOS Software Versions 12.0(21)S2 for the 12000 series GSR and 12.0(24)S for the 7500 series. The receive access lists protect the device from harmful traffic before the traffic can impact the route processor. Receive path ACLs are considered a network security best practice, and should be considered as a long-term addition to good network security, as well as a workaround for this specific vulnerability. The CPU load is distributed to the line card processors and helps mitigate load on the main route processor. The white paper entitled "GSR: Receive Access Control Lists" will help identify and allow legitimate traffic to your device and deny all unwanted packets:
Clearing Hung TCP Connections Using the IOS CLI
The who command will show VTY connections to the device:
Router# who
Line User Host(s) Idle Location
0 con 0 192.168.10.72 00:00:00
* 2 vty 0 idle 00:00:00 192.168.10.72
3 vty 1 idle 00:00:04 192.168.10.10
Router# who
Line User Host(s) Idle Location
0 con 0 192.168.10.72 00:00:00
* 2 vty 0 idle 00:00:00 192.168.10.72
3 vty 1 idle 00:00:04 192.168.10.10
The above shows two connections on VTYs, one from 192.168.10.72, and one from 192.168.10.10. The * indicates which VTY belongs to the current session. In the above example, the user issuing the who command was connecting from 192.168.10.72. To clear the session from 192.168.10.10, which is on VTY 1, the following command is used:
Router# clear tcp line vty 1
Router# clear tcp line vty 1
Note: If you are using telnet to connect to the device, accidentally clearing your TCP connection will disconnect your telnet session. If the IOS device has been exploited, it will not be possible to reconnect via telnet. Console access or a device reload will be required to restore service.
Clearing Hung TCP Connections Using SNMP
It is also possible to detect and clear hung TCP connections using SNMP. To detect a hung connection, an SNMP read-only community string must be configured on the device. To reset a connection, an SNMP read-write community string must be configured on the device.
The following document describes, in detail, the process of detecting and clearing hung TCP connections with SNMP:

by Emmet Scott (October 2012)
Theories about the fall of Rome have been thick on the ground for many centuries. The "traditional" view, that it had been caused by the violence of the invading barbarians in the fifth century, was seriously undermined by the application of new and more stringent methods of historical enquiry during the nineteenth century. Indeed, by the first decades of the twentieth century it had become apparent that, as an imperial power, Rome was already in a fairly advanced state of decay by the end of the second century – over two hundred years before the official "end" of the Empire in 476. more>>>
This article explains what had long been a mystery to me., why the 5th century Visigoths in Spain passed a law that abortion is punishable by death.
The paralellisms with todays "culture" scream out from the article. I recently read another article( and no I don't remember where) that postulated that Christianity grew without Rome's approval because the Matrons of Rome had become fed up with infantacide. By a lot of women moving to the new religion , pressure , particularly in the ruling class , built until making the religion official was an inevitability.
Do you think that climate change (a global cooling period shortly after the time of Jesus) may have been an influence on this situation as well?
Less agricultural yield would reduce population; this would also be an incentive to having fewer children (it being more difficult to care for and feed them). Cities would be more difficult to provision, with the need to bring food in from longer distances, thus making city life more difficult. People would find abortion and infanticide the first resort when faced with an unwanted chlld.
Thanks for this article. Christians have been implicated in the fall of the Roman Empire, and while they may be in part responsible, that might on the whole have been a good thing.
An intriguing article.
However, it does raise the question of why Rome rose under Paganism if Paganism was the cause of its decline.

Cole Wants A New Trial
Back in March of last year, Illinois native, Tammy Cole, was found
guilty of first degree intentional homicide in connection with the April 2010 shooting of 53 year old Vance Evans in Tomah. Sentenced to life in prison with parole after 30 years, Cole was back in a Monroe County courtroom today, asking that she be re-tried in the case.
On the stand in Sparta, Cole's former Attorney, Michael Rabbit. Her new attorney quizzed Rabbit all morning on things ranging from the lack of evidence presented in the case to the fact that Vance Evans had a BAC of .33 at the time of his death and that he actually could have been the aggressor in the shooting. Evans was also facing prison time in Illinois for a 4th DUI. Cole's second attorney was scheduled to take the stand this afternoon.
The prosecution maintains that Cole was upset that Evans admitted that he was in another relationship so she found a gun in his home and shot him, then tried to blow the house up.

First, it's all still good-
There are always a few little things every now and then, and I definitely don't want to make any presumptions, but if it keeps going the way it is I may have been lucky enough to avoid a second round of Accutane.
Which is wonderful. I know I'm a little biased now that I've been treated for so long, but spending another six months with live skin peeling off is that last thing I want to do. Of course, if that needs to happen, I definitely won't hesitate, but I'm happy with this whole not having terrible acne business.
So, like I said, it's been a year. And in case someone comes along that's in the position I was back when I started this, there are some things you might want to know.
- I haven't had any side effects since I made that post a year ago. I still have a few episodes of really mild dryness that might not have happened otherwise, but it's not a problem.
- My face isn't completely clear. A typical week now consists of having two or three small ones show up, with maybe one being distractingly visible, and they're usually gone before they outstay their welcome.
- Yes, it's very, very noticeable to everyone that it's gone. Or at least it was back in spring when it was a new thing. I'm not the most sociable person, not the type that has constant contact with people, so I never really got friends and acquaintances stopping me and saying something about it, but if you are one of those people and your friends/acquaintances don't think they'll offend you, they'll let you know.
- Additionally, being not particularly sociable, I can't say anything about the ladies. Or the gentlemen if you're a lady or otherwise into gentlemen. But I'd guess it doesn't hurt your chances.
- I still wash my face once a day, even though I should be doing it twice a day but I'm a rebel so screw your rules. Right now I don't need any fancy things to keep it in check, although they're available if I need them.
- Shaving is no longer a game of Minesweeper.
- Accutane is still all kinds of worth it. Naturally, it's different for every case and the most important source here is your dermatologist, but if Accutane is being offered as an option and there aren't any outstanding reason for you to not go on it, it's six months of terrible pain and suffering to improve the rest of your life. Just do it over summer when you won't be seeing that many people.
So if anyone happens to find this and it turns out to be useful then my job is done. And good luck. Pass on the knowledge and all that.
EDIT: iPhone pictures taken in front of a computer screen at midnight are apparently very unflattering. I don't look this miserable in real life. Not anymore, at least.

Nothing is stronger than a mother's pride
Nothing can be stronger than family pride when a member of that family does something incredible, and the family member glowing with the most pride is usually the mother.
Ulanda Sanders said at least 25 family members gathered for the recent NFL draft, in which her son, Zebrie Sanders, an offensive tackle from Florida State University, was selected in the fifth round by the Buffalo Bills.
"My eyes are tearing as I think of all the family support," said Ulanda, whose family moved from Dayton, Ohio to Newburgh nearly five years ago. Zebrie's sister, Zuriel, was a freshman standout on Castle High School's varsity girls' basketball team last winter.
For the NFL draft, the Sanders family met in South Carolina, where Ulanda and her husband, Vincent, are from originally.
"My son wanted his grandparents to be with him during this time, so we traveled back to South Carolina," Ulanda said. "As we waited for his name to be called, it was like a mini-family reunion."
Her mother's twin sister flew in from New York while her cousin flew in from Las Vegas. Vincent's brothers and sisters from Virginia and Maryland were also in attendance. Her sister and her family came in from Washington, D.C.
"It reminded me that for every college game he played, he had family members and/or friends traveling to the game," Ulanda said. " 'Game Day' was always another mini-family reunion. It was great."
During the summer before his seventh grade year, Zebrie was in Spartanburg, S.C., visiting his grandparents and his cousin showed him his South Carolina High School State Championship ring.
"That ring was the catalyst that started the fire burning," Ulanda said.
But Vincent and Ulanda always made it clear to Zebrie that he was a student-athlete, with the emphasis on "student."
"There are many rules that we have in place in our family, but one of the stricter rules is: 'If you cannot spend time with your siblings, then you cannot spend time with anyone else.' I want my children to grow up with strong family bonds, and those bonds begin with spending time with one another, and sports has afforded us this opportunity."
Ulanda said she has gone from a "(Dayton) Northmont High School Mom" to a "Florida State Seminole Mom" to an "NFL Buffalo Bills Mom."
"This mom gig is pretty sweet," she said. "There is no better job in this world than to be a mom, and I love it. Our son graduated from FSU in Dec. 2011, played in his final collegiate football game in the Champs Bowl and now four months later, he has a job!"
When your son makes good, it's a wonderful feeling. However, when the whole world is watching him, now that's really sweet.

POSTED BY Joe Matar - 12.13.12 - email marketing
The Rebel's Guide to Email Marketing, by DJ Waldow and Jason Falls, starts by asking the reader to type the phrase "email is dead" into Google to see how many results it spits out. The result? An astonishing 1.7 million search results! Based on just that number alone it would seem that email marketing for business is dead. Psych! Email is not dead. DJ and Jason provide stats that prove email is thriving and can help you grow your business.
- Everyone is doing it:
- According to a Pew Internet and American Life Project's Generations 2010 report, 94% of people online send or read email. Wow! Not even the Super Bowl, typically the most watched T.V. program of the year, gets 9 out of 10 people to watch. (Nine out of 10 people don't even shower daily!)
- If grandma is on YouTube, she's definitely using email! The breakdown of email usage across age groups is very consistent:
- 96% of Millennials (ages 18 to 33)
- 94% of Generation X (ages 34 to 45)
- 91% of young Boomers (ages 46 to 55)
- 93% of Older Boomers (ages 56 to 64)
- 90% of the Silent Generation (ages 65 to 73)
- 88% of the G.I. Generation (ages 74 and up)
- Email is growing:
- According to a Radicati Group, Inc report "The total number of worldwide email accounts is expected to increase from 3.3 billion accounts in 2012 to more than 4.3 billion accounts by year-end 2016. This represents an average annual growth rate of 6% over the next four years."
- Commercial email is the fastest growing category of email:
- A Merkle study reports that commercial emails account for 30% of all the time spent on email which is the only category of email that has been growing over the last 3 years (other categories are friends and family, work and other).
- Email will make your business money:
- The most fascinating stat of all is that, according DMA in their 2011 report, email marketing has a higher return than all other forms of marketing. For every dollar spent on email marketing the average return is more than $40! This is higher than social media, SEM, online display ads, mobile and catalog marketing. Check out the cool graph below that shows the comparison:
Email marketing helps businesses make money. It is a marketing channel that allows you to speak personally and directly market to your customers and prospects who have given you permission to send them relevant and timely content. Email is shareable, both through email and social media networks. When paired with social media, the reach is expanded and has the potential to further grow your subscriber list.
Email marketing also allows you to test, learn and improve your email marketing strategy as you go along, ultimately leading to more and more sales. Through split testing, you can create two different messages to test and see what message or offer works best with your customers. Analytics provide an understanding of email performance – measuring open rate, click-through rate and conversion rate. With the potential to grow your business, it is extremely important that you build email marketing into your business' overall marketing plan.

Plaza de la Constitución (Zócalo) : Michelin's recommendations
The huge Plaza de la Constitución stands in the historic centre of Mexico City. It is an impressive pedestrian square. Surrounded by buildings forming a vast architectural complex (Palacio Nacional, Catedral Metropolitana, the seat of the federal district), it is a place that is free of construction, where Mexicans can freely come and go, and is the setting for a wide variety of events. In the centre of the square stands the national flag, raised on a plinth, or socle, thus the square's name, Zócalo.
