Ask any business owner if running a business is tough and the word 'YES' will probably be your answer. In the virtual world of Internet Marketing this is even more true. Why? It is true because of the sheer level of competition. People absolutely love the internet marketing niche and many enter it with the hopes of making a good living. If one is so bold so as to actually attempt conquering this niche, there are three internet marketing skill sets that will be absolutely essential to success. If these skills or skill sets are not understood and practiced, failure is statistically imminent. So what are these skill sets? Let's explore them one-by-one. Skill set number one is copyrighting. The ability to write compelling and interesting promotional copy is the most important skill that one can learn. Have you ever heard the expression 'knowledge is power'? Well, here is another one for you: 'information is money'. Without a doubt, information IS money. To have the ability to write compelling copy is to have the ability to influence the decisions of potential leads and customers. To that end, the writing of technical and compelling copy can literally be referred to in terms of money. For proof of this, go to any webmaster, SEO or marketing forum and take a look around. Odds are you will find a forum or board dedicated to the selling of articles that have been prepared specifically for niche subjects. These niche articles are generally sold in packages with private labeling and resell rights attached. The selling of articles and unique content is a huge industry in itself through which a very, very large amount of money exchanges hands. Remember 'information is money'. The second essential skill set is Search Engine Optimization or SEO for short. One of the most targeted sources of traffic as well as the highest converting is search engine traffic. For a search engine to have a proper understanding of what your content is about, SEO techniques MUST be applied. It is true that search engine algorithms have come a long way with respect to defining what subject as article is about, but nothing replaces the human brain in this respect. This is the reason the field of SEO exists, for human brains to literally tell the search engines the subject and focus of the article. This will include proper keyword selection as well as accurate and relevant title selection in addition to proper meta tagging. Search engines are smart, but despite all of the advances, they still have a long way to go before they develop rudimentary comprehension skills when compared to the brain. The final skill set that is necessary for internet marketing is the set of generalized webmaster skills. What are some of these? A list of some of these would include: the selection and installation of content management systems, the tweaking and refinement of source code, the management of MySQL databases to name a few. If you do not have any of these skills, do not fret. They can be learned, even if you consider yourself technically inept in this area. There are countless services, forums, ebooks, and guides that can take you step-by-step through any task you need to complete. One nice thing available to webmasters these days is the inclusion of auto-installation scripts available with most hosting services such as HostGator or GoDaddy. Websites can literally be set up and running with the click of a button and that is the reason this skill set falls to third place in terms of importance. So there you have it, the three most important internet marketing skills: copyrighting, SEO, and webmaster skills...in that order.

Many people struggle with the basic concepts of maintaining their HVAC system, even though it is a critical component of their home. Any homeowner can learn the basis of the HVAC. This article can help.
If your HVAC system us giving you issues, take a look around the house prior to calling a contractor. Figure out which rooms are hot and cold. This will help your contractor quickly determine where the issue lies and how to get it fixed quickly and easily.
Clean any debris that accumulates on an external condenser unit. Debris quickly gathers here, even more so if there is a storm. This can cause major issues with your system. The whole thing can overheat, causing major problems and possibly an enormous expense for you.
The operation of your HVAC system can be in danger when the tree leaves begin to fall. The grill on the fan can become cluttered with debris, which will cause a serious operating deficiency. The fan needs to have an unobstructed path for air to enter the unit, and if it becomes blocked, you will end up with many headaches with the unit.
Find a place that is shaded for your compressor. This will limit the work that it has to do.
Boost energy efficiency by putting your condenser unit in the shade. The unit will have to do less work cooling this air.
Make sure you have your HVAC system checked at least twice a year. It's best to have it checked before you turn it on for the summer and again for the winter. Even if nothing seems wrong, checking it out can help you find and fix potential issues.
Double Pane
If the house is yours or you're permitted to, replace the windows that are single pane with windows that are double pane. Good double pane windows keep cool air in during the summer and minimize your utility expenses. Likewise, heat is better retained during the winter.
One great way to save some cash when you're working on keeping a home cool is to install a thermostat that's programmable. It may save you as much as 10 percent of your overall utility bill if you turn your thermostat down by 10-15 degrees for a portion of the day. Also, you can find a thermostat that is controllable from a computer or smart phone.
Don't let your home get too hot. Expect an air conditioning unit to drop the temperature down 20 degrees within a short amount of time. This limits their overall benefit. Taking into consideration the humidity level, this may not even be adequate for the human body to recover from excessive heat while sleeping.
Use an online sizing calculator to help you calculate the proper size of the air conditioning unit you should purchase. If you buy something too large it won't be efficient as it cools the same. Look at the manual for more information.
Which way does your home face? If you have trees placed in strategic areas, you can block the sunlight in the morning. Anything that provides shade from direct sunlight can reduce the temperature inside your home and help reduce your energy bill for air conditioning during warm months.
If you hear a clicking in the HVAC unit at home, see if there are any obstructions right away. There may be particles of debris that are touching the fans. Simple removal of the debris will solve the problem. Look at this prior to calling a technician.
Your HVAC system will be more efficient if your doors and windows are efficient as well. Be sure that they're sealed well so that air from the outside or inside doesn't come in or escape. A professional can easily have this tested for you, and oftentimes, this service is free.
There aren't many things that make a home more comfortable than a functioning HVAC system. Knowing how to maintain them is very important. By using the above information, you now know what to do.

LG V960 All-In-One PC Announced at IFA 2013
Subject: General Tech, Displays, Systems | August 31, 2013 - 03:25 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: LG, AIO, 21:9
HDTVs have an aspect ratio, the proportion between width and height, of 16:9. This, more noticeably rectangular, format was seen as a suitable compromise between 4:3 tradition and the many widths of theatrical releases. Computers, high resolution since the 90s (give-or-take) to fit more stuff on screen, first adopted many HD innovations.
Widescreen, however, was firmly resisted. Internet video was not popular or even known to the general public. Vista, with its sidebar optimizations, was expected to make 16:10 tolerable. 16:9 was too wide to even be considered an effective option for documents and websites.
I must say: I don't know how I'd live without Sidebar making my monitor feel wastefully narrow and...
... normal.
Now that the public is comfortable with 16:9, because at some point it ceased to be scary for display manufacturers, some are experimenting with even wider niches. 2560x1080 has about a third more width than a "FullHD" panel to add another side-by-side-by-side document to edit or snapped website to refer to. At this point, if people want to buy it, do it.
LG, at IFA 2013, unveiled their V960 all-in-one (AIO) desktop. This computer is housed inside a 29" 21:9 (technically 64:27, but those numbers are big and scary) IPS display. Despite lacking a touchscreen, and despite OSX screenshots for its also announced plain monitors in its promo image, the AIO comes with Windows 8 pre-installed. It houses a mobile GeForce GT 640M GPU and... well that is about all we know of its internals.
The company believes that you might use some screen width for picture-in-picture TV browsing. LG is not too clear on what functionality will be available to the V960. Other monitors in the line contain a TV tuner, but they never specified whether the AIO would have a tuner or just an HDMI input. Also unclear, whether video inputs are accessible to the computer for DVR functionality or whether it is delivered straight to the display.
The LG V960 was on display at IFA 2013. No pricing and availability information has been announced by LG.
Higher than High Definition ... we need a better name for 2560 x 1440

Hardware.info had a chance to review 14 different 2560x1440 displays of which all but three they could find for sale; prices ranged from $500 to $950. That price range is interesting as all of the displays reviewed were 27" models, so the disparity is not caused by larger screens. Gamers may want to head straight to their findings on Response Time and Input Lag but you should spend the time to read the whole round up if you are more interested in the colour accuracy.
"Most IT product categories tend to evolve rapidly, but developments in computer monitors have been decidedly slower. Although larger screens are slowly becoming more affordable, the most common resolution remains 1920x1080 pixels. Nonetheless, this year we're seeing more and more manufacturers release WQHD monitors. Hardware.Info collected 14 different models of these very impressive monitors and tested them to find out which is the best one to get."

When you think monitors, do you think Lenovo?
Subject: Displays | July 30, 2013 - 05:42 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Lenovo, thinkvision, ips display, LT3053p
The Lenovo ThinkVision LT3053p is an 30" IPS LED backlit display with a 2560×1600 resolution and a hefty price tag of around $1500. For that price you do get some interesting input choices including a mobile high definition link port, which looks like an HDMI input except for the MHL label as well as both DisplayPort 1.2 in and an DP 1.2 out to allow you to daisy chain another monitor to the Lenovo. As well a single USB 2.0 and four USB 3.0 ports were installed, including a dedicated charging port like is seen on many laptops now on the market. For professionals this monitor is able to display 30bit colour and 99% Adobe RGB gamut. Benchmark Reviews also demonstrated how the monitor can be split and accept sources from two different computers and have a mouse and keyboard hooked up directly so that it can act as a sort of KVM switch. The features are interesting but it is hard to get over the sticker shock.
"In the past year or so flat panel monitor prices have entered free-fall, with massive 27″ displays widely available for under $300. Given that, why would anyone even consider spending over $1,500 on a somewhat larger 30″ display? Lenovo has lent Benchmark Reviews one of their ThinkVision LT3053p units to review, so let's see what all that extra money buys you."

Extreme Windows, Extreme Eyefinity, 11,520 x 2160 Gaming
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards, Displays | July 25, 2013 - 07:32 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: eyefinity, crossfire, 4k
Sharp recently sampled a few of their 32" 4K monitors to Microsoft's Extreme Windows. The blog, known for editorializing what enthusiasts can do with Microsoft products, combined three 3840 x 2160 monitors into a 3x1 Eyefinity configuration at 60 Hz; the screen, itself, measures about 7 feet diagonally. This configuration, unlike the already-supported three-display 30 Hz and single-display 60Hz 4K modes, required AMD to develop a customized driver before Sharp's repo-team reclaimed their $15,000 worth of monitors.
They had a day until their door was to be knocked.
The system, three Radeon HD 7970s in Crossfire, successfully drove... they were playing Dirt 3, by the way... the three monitors at 60 Hz with between 62 and 70, of software recorded, FPS. 11,520 x 2160, at 60 Hz, requires 1.5 billion colors to be calculated within a second of animation; that is 1.5 gigapixels. Ignore, for a moment, stutter caused by including Crossfire with an Eyefinity setup. Every calculation, whether properly drawn to the monitor or not is, and must be, performed; 1.5 gigapixels is impressive and an accomplishment for Radeon hardware.
Lastly, I need to call out drama as I see it: power supplies. It is not hard to find a PSU which can support a three-GPU system and no reason for it to be hanging outside the case. It might give off the bleeding-edge appearance, but this is not arc welding. If they really were concerned, they could have picked up a higher capacity device from the shelf of a local component reseller.
Dell Unveils UltraSharp 32 Ultra HD Monitor With 3840x2160 IGZO Panel
Subject: Displays | July 24, 2013 - 03:59 PM | Tim Verry
Tagged: ultrasharp 32, ultrasharp, ultra hdtv, UHD, igzo, dell, 4k
Dell showed off a new Ultra HD (UHD) monitor called the UltraSharp 32 at SIGGRAPH 2013 this week. The new monitor has a 32" IGZO, or Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide, panel, which is a technology developed by Sharp that allows for smaller pixels or faster reaction times. (A similar panel is used in the ASUS PQ321Q that Ryan recently reviewed.). The panel has a 4K resolution of 3840 x 2160 and comes with a matte finish. Dell claims that its new 4K monitor supports up to 1.07 billion colors.
The monitor is fitted to an aluminum stand that allows for height ajustment. The monitor itself is rather thin, but still manages to fit an SD card reader on the left-hand side. The rest of the ports are located on the rear of the monitor, however. IO on the Dell UltraSharp 32 includes:
- 1 x DisplayPort
- 1 x Mini DisplayPort
- 3 x USB
- 1 x SD
Unfortunately, other specifications such as refresh rate are unknown. Dell has not yet released pricing information, but has stated that the UltraSharp 32 will be available in Q4 of this year. I think this is good for consumers as it should help bring 4k monitor prices down as competition heats up between the various manufacturers using these IGZO panels.
Engadget was on hand at SIGGRAPH and managed to snap several photos of the new monitor which are worth checking out.
Video Perspective: SEIKI SE39UY04 39-in 4K 3840x2160 TV Unboxing and Overview
Subject: General Tech, Displays | July 20, 2013 - 11:36 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: video, seiki, SE39UY04, hdtv, displays, 4k, 3840x2160
After the interest in our overview of the SEIKI 50-in 4K HDTV last April, we got word that SEIKI was making a smaller version of the same television. The SE39UY04 is now available and sells for just under $700 at various online retailers and is surely piquing the interest of many PC users and enthusiasts with the combination of a 3840x2160 resolution and 39-in screen size.
In nearly every way, this 39-in model is identical to the 50-in version with the exception of size and pixel density. Having just recently published a review of the ASUS PQ321Q 4K monitor on PC Perspective I can now report that the move from 60 Hz screens to 30 Hz screens, even at this kind of resolution and screen size, is very apparent.
Below is our initial video unboxing and overview of the new SEIKI SE39UY04. Check it out and leave us any questions or ideas below!
Specifications and Overview
Talk to most PC enthusiasts today, be they gamers or developers, and ask them what technology they are most interested in for the next year or so and you will most likely hear about 4K somewhere in the discussion. While the world of consumer electronics and HDTV has been stuck in the rut of 1080p for quite some time now, computers, smartphones and tablets are racing in the direction of higher resolutions and higher pixel densities. 4K is a developing standard that pushes screen resolutions to 4K x 2K pixels and if you remove the competing options discussion (3840x2160 versus 4096x2160 are the most prominent) this move is all good news for the industry.
I first dove into the area of 4K displays when I purchased the SEIKI SE50UY04 50-in 4K TV in April for $1300 when it popped up online. The TV showed up days later and we did an unboxing and preview of the experience and I was blown away by the quality difference by moving to a 3840x2160 screen, even with other caveats to be had. It was a 30 Hz panel, half a typical LCD computer display today, it had limited functionality and it honestly wasn't the best quality TV I had ever used. But it was 4K, it was inexpensive and it was available.
It was hard to beat at the time but the biggest drawback was the lack of 60 Hz support, the ability for the screen to truly push 60 frames per second to the panel. This caused some less than desirable results with Windows usage and even in gaming where visual tearing was more prominent when Vsync was disabled. But a strength of this design was that it only required a single HDMI connection and would work with basically any current graphics systems. I did some Frame Rating game performance testing at 4K and found that GPU horsepower was definitely a limiting factor.
Today I follow up our initial unboxing and preview of the ASUS PQ321Q 4K monitor with a more thorough review and summary of our usage results. There is quite a bit that differs between our experience with the SEIKI and the ASUS panels and it is more than just the screen sizes.

NVIDIA Releases 326.19 Beta Driver, Adds Support for 4K Tiled Displays!
Subject: Graphics Cards, Displays | July 18, 2013 - 08:16 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: pq321q, PQ321, nvidia, drivers, asus, 4k
It would appear that NVIDIA was paying attention to our recent live stream where we unboxed and setup our new ASUS PQ321Q 4K 3840x2160 monitor. During our setup on the AMD and NVIDIA based test beds I noticed (and the viewers saw) some less than desirable results during initial configuration. The driver support was pretty clunky, we had issues with reliability of booting and switching between SST and MST (single and multi stream transport) modes caused the card some issue as well.
Today NVIDIA released a new R326 driver, 326.19 beta, that improves performance in a couple of games but more importantly, adds support for "tiled 4K displays." If you don't know what that means, you aren't alone. A tiled display is one that is powered by multiple heads and essentially acts as multiple screens in a single housing. The ASUS PQ321Q monitor that we have in house, and the Sharp PN-K321, are tiled displays that use DisplayPort 1.2 MST technology to run at 3840x2160 @ 60 Hz.
It is great to see NVIDIA reacting quickly to new technologies and to our issues from just under a week gone by. If you have either of these displays, be sure to give the new driver a shot and let me know your results!
Some more 4K love!
This morning Fedex dropped off a new product at our offices, one that I was very eagerly awaiting: the ASUS PQ321Q 31.5-in 4K 60 Hz monitor!
While we are far from ready to post a full review of the display and have lots of more game testing to get to, we did host a live stream for the unboxing and initial testing of the PQ321Q that I think is worth sharing.
In this video we do a walk around the $3500 4K display, hook it up to both NVIDIA and AMD test bed at 60 Hz and then proceed to install 3-Way SLI Titans to see how it games! Enjoy this quick preview before our full review of the ASUS PQ321Q.
UPDATE: This display is now available for purchase if you want to shell out the $3500!
Oculus VR Rift HD 1080p Prototype Headset Impresses
Subject: Displays, Shows and Expos | June 12, 2013 - 08:24 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: Oculus, oculus rift, VR, E3
I have been a big proponent of the Oculus Rift and its move into the world of consumer-ready VR (virtual reality) technology. I saw it for the first time at Quakecon 2012 where Palmer Luckey and John Carmack sat on stage and addressed the new direction. Since then we saw it at CES and finally got in our own developer kit last month for some extended hands-on.
While I have definitely been impressed with the Rift in nearly every way while using it, the first thing anyone says when putting on the headset for the first time is about the graphics - the resolution of the unit was just too low and it creates a "screen door" effect because of it. As I wrote in my first preview:
I will say that the low resolution is definitely a barrier for me. Each eye is only seeing a 640x800 resolution in this version of the kit and that close up you can definitely see each pixel. Even worse, this creates a screen door effect that is basically like looking through a window with a screen installed. It's not great but you could get used to it if you had to; I am just hoping the higher resolution version of this kit is closer.
At E3 2013 the team at Oculus was able to put together a very early prototype of an HD version of the screen. By using a new 1920x1080 display each eye is able to see 960x1080; roughly twice the pixel density of the initial developer kit.
I got to spend some time with the higher resolution model today and I have to say that the difference is striking - and instantly noticeable. Gone was the obvious screen door effect and I was able to focus purely on the content. The content itself was new as well - Oculus and Epic were showing the Unreal Engine 4 integration with a custom version of the Elemental demo. The colors were crisp, the effects were amazing and only in a couple of rare instances of solid white color did we notice the black lines that plagued the first version.
As of now Oculus doesn't have plans to offer an updated developer kit with the 1080p screen installed but you just never know. They are still looking at several different phone screens and haven't made any final decisions on which direction to go but they are definitely close.
When I inquired about improvements on head tracking latency and accuracy to aid in motion sickness concerns (like I seem to have) Oculus was hesitant to say there was any single fix. Instead, a combination of lower latency, better hardware and even better thought out content were key to reducing these effects in gamers.

The National Enquirer is running a shocking new story about George Lopez, saying he cheated on his wife with hookers!
The tabloid spoke with a paid escort from Tampa Bay, Florida who claims she had sex with the late night host, and there was definitely a money exchange.
The woman, who goes by the name "Tiffany," says Lopez also tried to set up a threesome with himself and two prostitutes. "I had sex with George Lopez for money, and so did a friend of mine," the woman claims. "He wanted a threesome and texted me…"
This is pretty shocking, seeing that George's own wife saved his life by donating one of her kidneys to him. Plus, he was just at the side of his good friend Sandra Bullock after she went through a cheating scandal with her husband Jesse James.
George has told Hollyscoop on multiple occasions the love he has for his wife so it seems out of his character. But before you go knocking the Enquirer, remember that they're the ones who broke the Tiger Woods cheating scandal.
More details to come…

The world's first Brain Training Device has given a ray of new hope to the recovery of survivors after stroke. Developed by researchers of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU)'s Interdisciplinary Division of Biomedical Engineering (BME), this novel device which can detect brainwave, and thereby control the movement of paralyzed limbs, or go even further to control a robotic hand based on its sophisticated algorithm.
The research was led by Prof. Raymond Tong Kai-yu, Professor of PolyU's Interdisciplinary Division of Biomedical Engineering, who is also the Principal Investigator of the award-winning Exoskeleton Hand Robotic Training Device or the "Hand of Hope". His team members include the BME research team (Newmen Ho, Xiaoling Hu, Ching-hang Fong, Xinxin Lou, Lawrence Chong and Nathan Lam) and the Industrial Centre team of PolyU (Robert Tam, Bun Yu, Shu-to Ng and Peter Pang).
The latest breakthrough "Brain Training Device" can be coupled with the use of the "Hand of Hope" to achieve higher degree of recovery for stroke patients. While effective motor recovery after stroke depends on early rehabilitation program and intensive voluntary practice of the paretic limbs, current rehabilitation products have not use brainwave to guide the stroke survivors to identify voluntary intention and to relearn how to reconnect to their paralyzed limb again.
Prof. Raymond Tong and his team therefore developed the Brain Training Device with a new coherence algorithm for hand function training. The new algorithm is based on frequency coherence on surface electroencephalography (EEG, brainwave) and electromyography (EMG, muscle activities) to identify voluntary intention and their connection.
"The Brain Training Device is able to guide the stroke patients to relearn the reconnection between the brain and the limb, with a new design on the EEG headset and the EMG forearm brace to transmit

Gear Review
Jay Creech
good lightweight harness
I've had this harness for a couple months now and I like it a lot. I am by no means an expert rock climber, but I've logged enough hours in this harness and a few others to draw some conclusions. The fit of the harness is solid. There is enough padding on the legs and waist for the harness to be comfortable. Sometimes it can dig into my legs a bit when I am being lowered/rappelling or if I'm belaying someone and they fall/take a break. The speed adjust buckles are nice and easy to adjust on the waist and legs. I like the gear loops, it's worked great for sport climbing. The harness itself is very lightweight and packs up small. I'm about 5'6", 135lbs with a 30" waist and a small fits great.Overall, it's a solid lightweight harness. It sacrifices some comfort to become lighter and more packable - but it's a worthy trade off.

SACKVILLE, N.B. ÔÇô Commerce students at Mount Allison are learning entrepreneurial skills by starting their own grocery delivery business, The Grocery Runners, in their Entrepreneurship class. The Entrepreneurship course has been taught at Mount Allison for more than a decade. Each year the class decides on the venture as a group and then creates and runs the business. ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿The fourteen students in the class were broken up into three groups: marketing, accounting, and website. The groups are responsible for establishing the business, complete with payroll, and handing in a business plan at the end of the semester. In the past, students have run businesses such as a gym, a coffee shop, and a mobile BBQ. The class has also paired with other disciplines, such as Fine Arts, to have an art auction, as well as math and computer science students to create mobile apps for local businesses. ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿Dr. Nauman Farooqi, who created the experiential-learning course at Mount Allison, says it's important for students to understand that even the simplest of projects require a lot of hard work.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿ÔÇ£They cannot succeed alone and they need to communicate and build on each otherÔÇÖs strengths,ÔÇØ he says.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿Fourth-year Commerce student Nick Alberts is the chairperson of the Board and is responsible to the shareholders of the company and for running the company meetings. He says this course has taught him that running a business is an enormous amount of work and it requires different perspectives to be successful.
ÔÇ£As soon as you dip your feet in, you are responsible to many different people and you need to be consistent,ÔÇØ he says.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿Through the website, thegroceryrunners.ca, customers place their grocery order, which will be confirmed by a student, and then the team's drivers pick up the orders twice a week at Sobeys in Amherst, NS. The service is currently open to Sackville residents, with a possibility of future expansion into other communities. The cost for delivery is $5 for orders under $100 and $3 more for each $50 increment.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿Students are also required to invest an agreed upon amount of their own money into the business. Farooqi says that this pushes the students to be accountable to the project.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿ÔÇ£It is extremely important to realize that they have skin in the game,ÔÇØ says Farooqi. ÔÇ£Even a $10 investment makes them take it seriously.ÔÇØÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿While Farooqi leads the course, he says one of the most important elements is teaching students to make their own decisions.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿ÔÇ£They are in the driverÔÇÖs seat and navigating,ÔÇØ he says. ÔÇ£I am there for help and advice. I will offer choices and not answers and it is up to the students to decide. Even if I see them heading into a wall, I let them crash and fall down, and then learn to pick themselves up.ÔÇØÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿There is a $5,000 loan available to the class each year to get the business up and running. The group must go through the process of applying for the loan, just like any small business. Farooqi says that the loans have all been returned, with interest.ÔÇ¿ÔÇ¿The Grocery Runners can be reached at thegroceryrunners.ca, on Twitter @grocery_runners, and onfacebook.com/GroceryRunners.

February is National Children's Dental Health Month. The American Dental Association states a child's oral healthcare can have an impact on their health as an adult. However, by following some simple steps, oral health care can be drastically improved.
According to Dr. Richard Foreman, a dentist whose office is located in the village of Rouses Point, if children lose their teeth prematurely, usually before age 6, serious problems can result.
"Adult teeth can erupt into the spot and shift and move and it creates orthodontic problems. So, we try to take care of the teeth and keep the child healthy," Foreman explained.
The most obvious way is to brush teeth regularly. However, taking care of gums before teeth have erupted is important as well.
"Begin cleaning the baby's mouth during the first few days after birth," states the ADA. "After every feeding, wipe the baby's gums either with a clean, wet gauze pad or with a washcloth or towel."
Foreman also believes this technique can be used on teeth in young children, or you may use a finger toothbrush and gum massager with baby toothpaste. He does not suggest adult toothpaste, as it may be too strong for them.
"They might like a bubblegum flavor which is a little more mild," he said.
Foreman also suggests parents not let the child bring a bottle to bed unless it has water in it.
"A lot of people put their child down with a bottle and they think milk is okay. Milk has lactose in it, which is milk sugar," Foreman said.
If the milk lays on the child's teeth, it can cause cavities, he added. The same goes for juice.
Although the ADA suggests children should begin seeing a dentist at the age of 1, Foreman said it may be more difficult to work on a child that young, and recommends the age of 3. However, if it is necessary for a child to see a dentist, he suggests a pediatric dentist, who specializes in working with young children.

Statement from Family of Kellene Fallon
For Immediate Release
Saturday, October 20, 2012
The family of Kellene Fallon wishes to offer this statement about the tragic loss of their beloved daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, aunt and cousin.
We are speechless in our expression of sadness and disbelief at the heinous acts that occurred at Fero's Bar and Grill in Denver, CO. Our hearts go out to the families who have suffered and are suffering this loss with us through the death of those we love.
We issue this statement in honor of Kelly, and wish to make it known that our hearts are broken, and our lives forever changed by this senseless evil act that has taken the life of a treasured member of our family.
Kelly (Kellene) Fallon was a woman filled with vitality of life, holding a spirit that lit up every room. Her enthusiasm for life extended to all that knew her and her warm demeanor caused people to smile. She welcomed everyone with warmth; she and her beautiful spirit will be sorely missed.
Kelly was ecstatic to start her new job with All State Insurance, and had been busy making plans for her future. She found great joy in her relationships and was overjoyed to spend time with her family, including two beautiful grand daughters. An avid Broncos fan, Kelly loved to post updates on Facebook, cheering on her team; this enthusiasm was evident in every aspect of her life.
There are no words to describe the feelings of loss that encompass our thoughts. We ask for privacy in this time of grief, and ask that the media respect the sensitive nature of this situation.
Our family wishes to thank all those who have worked so tirelessly on behalf of Kelly and the others that where taken from their rightful place with us. We would also like to thank Kelly's friends, and those of you who have offered support, though we have never met. Thank you for your kindness, love and giving hearts.
Kelly will be remembered for her exuberant smile, her hardy laugh, and the life she brought to those that knew her. Her spirit will live on in the memories we shared together.

When the Lion Roared ...
The Latin motto that encircles Leo the Lion in the MGM logo reads, "Ars Gratia Artis," or "Art for Art's Sake," which is worth remembering at a time when a pack of Hollywood power seekers and bargain hunters are bidding pennies on the dollar for the debt-saddled studio and its 4,000-title film library. Over the course of its existence, MGM has collected 205 Academy Awards—15 of them best-picture Oscars—and its distinctive logo has adorned dozens of films that today are considered milestones of cinema history. Some of those iconic films, such as Gone with the Wind and The Wizard of Oz, currently reside in Warner Bros.' film library. (In 1996, Time Warner acquired Turner Broadcasting, which had bought and quickly resold MGM in the 1980s but held onto a choice chunk of its library.) So, to celebrate 85 years of filmmaking, MGM and Warner have joined forces to offer 100 MGM-produced classics available for digital download through multiple platforms, such as iTunes, Amazon Video on Demand, and both Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation marketplaces. Some, including Gone with the Wind, are available in high-definition format, and all of the available titles can be found at mgm.com/85. In conjunction with its 85th anniversary, MGM opened up its archives and provided Vanity Fair with a selection of stills taken on the sets of these now classic films. They offer a stop-action glimpse of magic in the making.

2009 R1200GS ADV clutch failure
I have a 2009 R1200Gs Adventure and two weeks ago i got to ride on the bike for the first long trip from Kuwait To Jordan Covering 1400+km.
but on the last leg of my trip and after covering 650km I had a clutch failure.
when i use the Clutch after more the 50km there is no Pressure so you have hold and release the lever for five times or more to get some Pressure. guys there is no oil leakage from the outside.
the bike is in Amman Jordan now and has Total of 5000km on it.
any one had the same problem or now how to solve it as there is no BMW workshop in Jordan and now I am back in KUwait thinking of going with a truck and pick up my bike.
It has air in it and needs to be bled.
Make sure you use the correct fluid.
I had the same problem. They replaced the slave cylinder. Of course, they say this never happens, but there are a few reports on ukgser.com of this problem as well. We should keep and eye on it and see if it happens to others as well.
By the way, they way to test it is to zip-tie your clutch lever to the handle bar and let it sit over night. In my case, they could see a small leak at the slave cylinder, after also applying some heat with a hair dryer.
If no external leak, I'd guess a clutch master cylinder. Not a difficult repair.
bad clutch
I had a similar problem on a 2004 R1100S. There was metallic-graphite looking stuff in the hydraulic fluid. Turns out that the long clutch shaft that engages the clutch to the slave cylinder was made out of some kind of cheap pot metal rather than stainless steel, and the shaft had a mushroomed end and was worn significantly. Of course this happened just after the 3 yr 30k warranty was up. Of course the dealer said that this never happened. Cost $2,000. Was a definately a faulty part. There was never any leaking fluid, that was noticible.
I know the 09s have different hand guards then the earlier models but is it possible your hand guard has been touching the clutch lever? That can really mess up your clutch in a relatively short period of time
I am currently having the same problem with my bike. It started after 11,000km. I went to the dealer and they told me they have never heard of the problem (same as with GS-A-DAY). I booked an appointment and they are going to have a look at the slave cylinder. Luckily I am still under warranty! :D
Replace the Slave cylinder
2009 R12GSA Clutch Failure
This is a known problem. I had my clutch go away (4600 miles on the odometer) in southern NM and managed to get the bike to El Paso. BMW had put the wrong mineral oil in the clutch hydraulic system. Also, there is a factory bulletin that repositions the clutch line near the left footpeg. I had my slave cylinder replaced and the shop had to bleed the system several times to get all the air out. I just got back from a ride, NC to CO, doing about 4000 miles and the clutch was fine. I think the problem has been solved.
I've asked several dealers about the problem. Some say, "Yes, we've seen several cases," while others act as if they've never heard about it. I dunno.
ON the way back from a 3100 mile offroad ride, I had about 90 miles of road riding to get home. I droned along in 6th bored out of my mind I was going to stop by local BMW shop and share my ride...
when I went to take the exit I had the same issue. I cruised the last mile in 6th and coasted in.
The service guys were perplexed or appeared so. After a few minutes I just pumped the clutch about 40 times and got pressue back. They rebled several times and I have not had any issues since.
Some KTMs have this issue also.
'09 GS adv with just under 19K km on it and have not experienced this. Just got back from a weekend trip out of province and no such symptoms.
Possibly you haven't dropped it enough to knock out the air bubbles from the clutch? :)
Yep. Just got back this afternoon from a 4000 mile tour. I left with 800 miles on the bike, clutch started going away at 2500 miles. I bled it every time I stopped until I got to Big Sky BMW at Missoula. They said it was a common problem, and that the cylinder needed replacement. They didn't have one in stock, so they flushed the system and I left. The flush bought me about a day and a half, and then it was back to bleeding a couple of times a day.
By the time I got home, it was virtually unusable.....
'09 GSA Clutch Failure
Virtually the same mileage when the same problem happend to my bike.
...worryin' me...I imagine things sometimes, but recently my '05 seems to have less pressure at the lever, the lever pulls alot farther than it feels like it should to disengage. I bled the line and replaced with mineral oil, doesn't seem much better though...:shog
My '09 Adventure is in the shop right now with exactly the same problem (5500 miles). Clutch started giving me problems on trip from Austin, Texas to New Mexico and the bike had about 3000 miles on it when I left Austin. Was able to get back home by pumping the clutch to get rid of air bubbles, but problem got much worse this past weekend with clutch engaging and killing the engine at stoplights when I had the clutch lever pull. Limped into Lonestar BMW yesterday and they are putting a new clutch master slave cylinder on it and they say that will solve the problem. Looks like this is a common problem with the new Adventures.

In the pivotal study, serious infections leading to hospitalizations were reported more frequently in the Prolia-treated patient group. Serious skin infections, as well as infections of the abdomen, urinary tract and ear, were more frequent in patients treated with Prolia. Patients should be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they develop signs or symptoms of severe infection, including cellulitis. Endocarditis was reported more frequently in the Prolia-treated patient group. Epidermal and dermal adverse events such as dermatitis, rashes, and eczema have been reported. Discontinuation of Prolia should be considered if severe symptoms develop.
Prolia resulted in significant suppression of bone remodeling. The significance of these findings is unknown. The long-term consequences of the degree of suppression of bone remodeling observed with Prolia may contribute to adverse outcomes such as osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), atypical fractures, and delayed fracture healing. ONJ has been reported in patients with Prolia. Patients should be monitored for these adverse outcomes. The most common adverse reactions (> 5 percent and more common than placebo) were back pain, pain in extremity, musculoskeletal pain, hypercholesterolemia, and cystitis. Pancreatitis has also been reported with Prolia.
About Denosumab CollaborationsIn July 2009, Amgen and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) announced a collaboration agreement to jointly commercialize Prolia for postmenopausal osteoporosis in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Mexico once the product is approved in these countries. Amgen will commercialize Prolia's postmenopausal osteoporosis and oncology indications in the U.S. and Canada and for all oncology indications in Europe and in other specified markets.
In addition, GSK will register and commercialize denosumab for all indications in countries where Amgen does not currently have a commercial presence,

The recipe was easy to follow. The cake was very moist. I used coconut on top instead of sugar. I also used the dark chocolate instead of what the recipe calls for. Excellent, excellent! I will make it again soon.
This is a very good cake. I did use dark chocolate instead of the milk chocolate, and did not use the lemon juice at all. Bakes it in a tube pan and baked it for 60-65 minutes. Stays very moist, and it is better the day after it is baked, if you can keep everyone away from it that long.

Gain Greater Testing Precision Through Adaptive Test Methods
-December 6, 2012
Article Summary:
Brooke Bowie explains how "adaptive" software testing provides nimble, high-value software test solutions that bend and shift with the changing needs of the market or the environment. High-value testing does not mean that you need to perform all end-to-end testing or run the full suite of tests; this can potentially create a bottleneck and dampen the velocity. Adaptive tests are always targeted at the most relevant business and quality goals.

text: The The Legend of Heroes II: Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch wiki last edited by LentFilms on 08/30/13 08:53AM View full history OverviewThe Legend of Heroes III: Shiroki Majo (The White Witch) follows the adventures of a young boy named Jurio on his quest to complete his warrior initiation rite by traveling to five shrines. The game is the third entry in Falcom's long running RPG franchise and the first entry of the "Gargarv Trilogy" in the series. The White Witch was originally created for the NEC PC-98 on March 18, 1994 with several ports and remakes released in the future. The game was ported to the Saturn in 1998 by Hudson, to the PlayStation the same year by GMF, and finally to the PC by Falcom in 1999. A PlayStation Portable remake of Legend of Heroes III was created by Namco Bandai and MiCROViSion in 2004 which was released in North America on June 20, 2006. The English release was retitled to "Legend of Heroes II" which created a lot of confusion as to where the game fit into the Legend of Heroes franchise.

Ds is 7, in year 2 of a public school M. we are wrapping up the evaluation process, and he is testing out as "twice exceptional" - gifted with either ADHD or Asperger's Syndrome (more likely PDD-NOS, if on the autism spectrum). He also has SPD and writing difficulties (sees a private OT, but won't qualify for direct service in the school, in this area).
Now, this Montessori is a real compromise for us - free but with major limitations to the Montessori aspects. I still feel it's better than traditional for him - he gets more freedom of movement, limited testing or homework, hands-on learning (although I don't see it being really "rich" learning experiences, but that's not really due to the program).
His IEP meeting is tomorrow. I'm thinking of accommodations that we can put on it. I've come up with: reducing the amount of written work, unless the focus is specifically writing; allow to work in a quiet, alternate setting - because the open classroom concept and the kids' incessant use of the electric pencil sharpener create a noisy/distracting environment; assessing his knowledge through alternate means, if necessary - like allowing him verbal responses or just laying the works out for check, rather than basing it on the "quality" of his written production.
His meeting is tomorrow (Wednesday the 30th), and I'd love to generate more ideas before the meeting, and I would love your suggestions of what has worked for your kids. I know it's hard to give suggestions when you don't know my ds, but throwing out your ideas and experiences will be helpful - I can evaluate whether they would benefit my particular kid. :) TIA!
What do you see as his particular needs? I would base the accommodations on what modifications he needs to successfully function within the classroom environment. I don't know Montessori specifically, so I don't know what the expectations are for his age. Does he need more movement breaks than you see now w/r to the possible adhd? Does he require some sensory-type accommodations to make life a little easier for him? Sorry to not be more specific.
My DD's included things like:
"To ensure success, assignments requiring writing may be modified to ensure success"
and a provision that she had until the following Monday to complete homework so that she could finish things up over the weekend.
She also had a safe place to go during the school if she began to feel overwhelmed.
IMHO, its in your son's best interest to do ALL the writing that he can because this is a skill that gets better with practice, so the more practice the other kids get than he doesn't, the further that he will fall behind. It is not my experience that fine motor skills are something that are "delayed" and eventually kick in. They continue to be a struggle, and are strengthen only by practice, not time. None the less, the exact amount that is appropriate for each child can vary widely. "All he can do without being overwhelmed and frustrated" can be a difficult place to find, and may be substantial less than his peers.
but everything has pros and cons
Is it the generation of ideas and the um, intellectual aspect of written assignments that is difficult for him, or is it the fine-motor ability, the act of writing?
When I worked in the public school system, we had typed-assignment adaptations for many children with autism, to get around that fine-motor difficulty. Of course, they still had to practice some writing, but in reality, in this day and age, when and where are you going to have to write out an essay-type thing that typing and printing would not be perfectly acceptable?? It helped the kids focus on getting their ideas onto paper and the other, more important aspects of learning to write formally--stuff like grammar, punctuation, how to form paragraphs for each idea, all that...eliminating the added stress of physically writing it and neat handwriting. ;)
lovin DH since 1/04, best mom for my 3 boys 10/04, 11/08, 11/10 one girlie (1/07), one 13 wk (10/13) and 5/15 just your average multigenerational living family!!
I don't know if this is too late for you or how things are done in a Montessori, but my son is also 2E and one of the things they do for him is that he is not required to do the same amount of work. If he shows mastery, he does not have to continue with a lot of busy work. He has not really come across much in his grade level he doesn't know yet, so he gets his work done and will go work on the computer learning software one grade higher. He also has fine motor skills issues and the quality of his writing would suffer if he has to write it by hand. When, I homeschooled him, I allowed him to type assignments for writing; but we still had a separate handwriting activity too. This way he could focus on his handwriting during that time, but did not have to get bogged down thinking about it while trying to do a writing assignment. They do this to a lessor degree at school. He still gets handwriting practice sheets for homework.
My DD's fine motor deficit is such that typing is also very difficult. She can both type and write by hand, but both are difficult. Typing is not the whole answer. It doesn't solve the fine motor issues.
Basic handwriting skills are necessary for a variety of task, from filling out a job application to completing multi-step math problems.
Watching how this is playing out for my now 15 year old ASD dd, I wished that we had force more practice when she was younger. Getting our kids with fine motor practice, such as handwriting *past the point where they REALLY need accommodations* isn't' helpful to them.
I don't believe that an attitude that writing by hand is an out dated skill would result in the optimum level of accommodation. It is a skill worth working on, even if some of the work is unpleasant.
but everything has pros and cons

Samobor Salami Day
In March Samobor Salami Day takes place in the town of Samobor where, in a competition for the best salami, small details will be the determining factors in deciding the winner among these delicacies with a brand characteristic of the Zagreb region. The tradition of making salami is nurtured within most families in Samobor, and the recipes have been strictly followed for decades. They are made from the best parts of pork meat, with added salt, pepper and traces of garlic. There was a time when all hosts would gladly show off their fine wine and salami-making skills to their guests. Therefore, gatherings were organized at different hosts' houses every evening, in order to sample a variety of wine as well as salami.
Salami Days are traditional customs in Northern Croatia and Northeastern parts of Slovenia. Therefore, the people of Samobor, and their neighbors from Brežice in Slovenia, have proven themselves as the best salami makers around. The secret of salami preparation lies in the ability to determine the right mix of ingredients, time spent smoking and drying the meat, methods of storing, etc. Salami Days, which are standard gastronomic tourism manifestations by now, help to preserve the tradition of old recipes in brand production. Therefore, a great number of visitors are expected at this year's Salami Day manifestation, where they will be able to taste salamis of all producers and enjoy the flavors of these specialties that Samobor is widely known for, along with its famous kremšnite cakes.

Well, Exist a castle hidden in the hill, and it's under resrtucturation. Therefore it's close to the tourists for the moment. Don't worry about this pic! Is not Jhon Rambo, only that September 2008 it was an extraordinary hot weather. For to reach this place exist only a path between the wood and there is not signials to follow.... so you must to discover it!!
Vlak Samoborski
The narrow-gauge railway to Samobor was opened in 1901. For many years it was a popular means to get to Samobor. Unfortunately, it's no longer. But you can see the last train as a monument next to a playground. Unfortunately it's full of graffiti.
Take a walk
It is very pleasant to stroll along the river and to take a walk in the surrounding hills. Along the river near the museum you will find benches to relax. If you are fit enough you can even take a longer walk uphill to the remains of the of castle. The ruins seem to be interesting but I couldn't check them out as not all my VT friends were properly equipped for the walk. You can spot the ruins from near the museum but I couldn't take a picture as the sun was totally in the wrong place.
It's difficult to visit museums on a weekend due to the short opening times. Of course, it was closed when we were there.
Opening times: Tuesday-Friday 9 am till 3 pm, Saturday and Sunday 9 am till 1 pm
Trg kralja Tomislava (main square)
This square is the heart of Samobor with beautiful buildings, lots of cafés and restaurants, the view of the St. Anastazija church and Gradna river. Depending from which side you approached you will have to cross a bridge. The tourist office is in the official looking building with the flags out.
go to the carnival!
Absolutely a must...If you'll be around in February, you gave to visit a carnival in Samobor. Goverment of the city that 2 weeks is in the hands of the Prince Fasnik and he get's burned down on the last day of the carnival. (don't worry it's just a puppet). There are also concerts every night, street musitians, little market and amusment park. The city is ruled by masks, lots of good humour and good food and drink :-))
The church and the main square
Enjoy in slow walks, in and around the town, during which you can see a lot of interesting details, rest, have fun and learn something about the town's history.
In whatever direction you decide to walk you are surely most certain to end up on the town square. The main square is the place where things happen.
- Family Travel
The Town Hall
The Town Hall of Samobor is situated in the central position of the main square and it dominates the whole area of the square. It is an old medieval manor, the most beautifual and the most attractive city palace.
- Family Travel
The wooden bridge
Take a look at the wooden bridge from the another perspective. It connects main city street (Livadiceva ulica) and the left bank of the small brook where, in the Central City Park, hotel "Lavica" and the City Museum are situated. It is one of the most pitoresque part of the town.
- Family Travel
The wooden bridge
You will be thrilled by the facades of the surrounding houses, the benches along the small river on which you can sit down and enjoy the view on the green parks.
The town is surrounded by hills with numerous marked trekking paths and mountain homes, such as, some of the most visited like, Japetic, Oštrc and Veliki Dol.
- Family Travel
Town centre
As always, the central areas are the most attractive and beautriful. Samobor is not the exception. Charming streets, interesting architecture. Just go and enjoy.
On the pic there is a nice fontain and a funny monument.

According to a news item in New York Times, this was the first project for Mutual Productions, a production company formed by Fred MacMurray and director Leslie Fenton. According to a news item in Los Angeles Examiner, Fenton decided to play the role of the Merchant Marine ship captain because of his experience as a captain of a torpedo boat during the war. This was Fenton's first screen role since the 1938 film Boys Town (see AFI Catalog of Feature Films, 1931-40; F3.0465). Fred MacMurray and Marguerite Chapman reprised their roles in a Lux Radio Theatre broadcast on May 13, 1946.

Just to throw in my two cents into this. I prefer the dead tree format myself, but I have no objection to E-Book (my wife has a Nook Color so I could use that). My major gripe right now is the pricing model. Currently a physical MMPB book sells for $7.99 for anywhere from 300 to 400+ pages. However, the E-Book cost is $5.99 for a novella that is typically only a third to half that size. I have a hard time mentally jumping that "hurdle".
But compare it to the price of a hardcover (typically 25-28 dollars for about the same page count) or a comic book (around 4 dollars for under 2 dozen pages of story) or a DVD of a feature film (maybe 15-20 dollars for an amount of story equivalent to a short novel). If anything, the price of MMPBs is an exceptional bargain.
And while you're right about the price for
The Struggle Within
, didn't I read that
In Tempest's Wake
will be $3.99? I imagine TSW was priced more steeply because it was a test case and they weren't sure whether it would sell in enough quantity to let them make a profit at a lower price point. Since the experiment worked and they're publishing more, maybe that means they feel a lower price can be profitable. New things often go down in price once they become established and popular.
I sincerely hope that they do cut the price of the TSW novella down to that price point as with TW. That price is more palatable. I did notice on B&N that Corps of Engineers e-books are listed at 5.99-6.99 in a bunch of cases.

Milan Lucic's girlfriend Brittany Carnegie became a rich woman over the weekend. Lucic made $4,000,000 last year as the Bruins' LW and will cash another $4.25M in 2012-13. Those are numbers that get the attention of the puck bunnies looking to make marrying a hockey player a career. So, of course, Brit was going to show off her new ring on Twitter.
Her account is on lockdown mode, but you can trust us that the hand above is hers and the giant rock is just one more step towards a loaded American Express card and half of Lucic's fortune. Hope it's worth it, brah.
