GLENS FALLS - It's an option the mayor of Glens Falls thought he would never have to consider: closing the Glens Falls Civic Center.
But, it's one he may be forced to.
NewsChannel 13's media partners at the Post Star report if the city isn't able to recruit a new American Hockey League tenant by next April, the city may have to consider closing the venue.
The Civic Center has been home to the Adirondack Phantoms, but the team is expected to move to a new arena in Pennsylvania for the 2014-2015 season.
The mayor insists it's too early to press the panic button.

FEATURED: "Our First Kiss Sucked!" — 3 (Quick) Ways to Recover
How to Date After the Death of a Spouse
|Kara Pound • 10/02/12
Discuss This!
The Dalai Lama once said, "It is worth remembering that the time of greatest gain in terms of wisdom and inner strength is often that of greatest difficulty."
I have never lost a spouse and will never pretend to know what it feels like, but I am an optimistic person. I'd like to think that if my husband passed, I'd spend the time I needed to mourn, and then I would realize that life and love are beautiful things. I'd never "move on," but I'd certainly be open to love again.
For senior women — who very well could have been with their husband for decades — how long should you mourn? And if you meet a man after the death of your spouse, when should you bring up your widow status and open up about the experience?
How long should the mourning period be?
There is no right or wrong answer to this. People will tell you that you should either get out there and start dating or that you're moving too fast. I know it's hard, but try to not listen to any of them.
You are the only person who knows how long you will mourn. One day you will wake up and no longer feel like the weight of the world is on your chest.
The conversation depends on a lot of factors.
When it comes to bringing up your widow status, that conversation depends on a lot of factors.
If you meet a man who is a widower, then you're going to get a whole lot more empathy and understanding. If you start dating a man who has never lost a spouse, then it will take longer to ease him into comprehending the pain you've experienced by losing a partner.
Like I said, I've never lost a spouse. I have no idea what it feels like. But I am a lover of life and a lover of love. I'd like to think it's possible to have more than one true love in your life. I'd like to think it's possible to always behold the memory of your husband and realize that you deserve the chance to be happy again.

Review By John Grabski - June 11, 2004
Edited By Ed Piotrowski
The dynamic lighting and shadow effects in the original Splinter Cell gave us a sneak peak of the special effects that the next generation of games will begin to adopt. As Splinter Cell is a game based on stealth, the management of one's shadow provides a unique aspect to gameplay. The original Splinter Cell was followed-up with Pandora Tomorrow, which is also based on the technology of the Unreal Warfare engine.
The popular Caspian Oil Refinery level was used to test the performance of Splinter Cell.
Splinter Cell is fairly kind to the BFG 5900XT OC when AF is enabled as effective visual results are produced with a low performance hit. High frame rates are not a requirement when playing Splinter Cell due to its pace. All resolutions tested performed adequately with 8X AF enabled.
Preferred Setting: 1280x1024 with no AA and 8X AF
Although not as advanced as Call of Duty, Enemy Territory features a variety of rendering improvements over Quake 3 and Return to Castle Wolfenstein, which include increased polygon counts, foilage shaders, advanced decals, and external lightmaps.
Enemy Territory was benchmarked using the Railgun demo with the highest in-game graphics settings and sound set to the lowest quality.
Due to the number of additional players in the Railgun timedemo this benchmark is somewhat CPU bound. However, it tends to be indicative of real-world performance and the BFG 5900XT OC offers excellent gameplay in this team-based World War 2 first person shooter.
Preferred Setting: 1280x1024 with 4X AA and 8X AF
The AMP II engine demo, developed by 4D Rulers Software, contains features that are starting to take foothold in the newest games such as Far Cry and the upcoming Doom 3. AMP II was specifically designed for rendering indoor corridors.
The AMP II engine was used in the value game "Secret Service: Security Breach", which was released with little fanfare. Tests were run at maximum quality settings.
The specular effects and lighting really take their toll on the BFG 5900XT OC, and as this demo shows, the engine was obviously optimized for use at 1024x768 with no AA or AF. At 45 frames per second, walking through the corridors provided a perspective on things to come.
Preferred Setting: 1024x768 with No AA and No AF. Although not indicative of Doom 3 performance, this demo does bring to light special graphics effects that will be adopted by the next generation of games.

For more information about what each rating represents, see the user's guide.
Geocaches are rated based on difficulty, terrain, size, and awesomeness.
When logging a cache, users have the option to provide their opinion on how the cache should be rated. This information, along with the hider's ratings are used to determine the final ratings for the cache. All the ratings are averaged, but extra weight is given to the hider. Essentially, the hider gets ten "votes," and everyone else just gets one.
Awesomeness is handled just a little bit differently. It doesn't make much sense to have the hider rate the cache's awesomeness. How could the hider be objective?
At the same time, we don't want the first couple people to be able to swing the awesomeness of a cache sharply one direction or the other. Awesomeness a collection of many people's opinion, and shouldn't be swayed by just a couple people.
To account for this, we use Bayesian Averaging. In effect, each cache starts with 10 votes for an awesomeness of 3. So, as the first few votes as cast, the awesomeness stays near the middle. This stops early loggers from manipulating the awesomeness. However, as more and more people vote, the affect of the 10 "dummy votes" decreases, and the true opinion of the community can be seen.
If you are converting from other systems that don't use
numbers for size, use this scale as a guide.
5.0: Large (5 gallon bucket or bigger)
4.0: Regular (ammo box)
3.0: Small (sandwich container)
2.0: Micro (35mm film canister)
1.0: Even smaller

Get low rates from our community lenders that prioritize people over profits. Our lenders may even consider your academic credentials, which can get you a better rate!
Get a 1% interest rate reduction once you've entered the full repayment period and repaid 10% of the loan principal.
The interest paid on your private student loan may be tax deductible.1
Our private student loan lenders offer cosigner release to creditworthy borrowers who have made consecutive, full on-time principal + interest payments.2
Our community lenders don't charge borrowers any origination fees for their private student loan.
When you sign up for automatic payments, our community lenders could drop your interest by 0.25%.3
Lead By Example
A creditworthy cosigner can make all the difference when it comes to a loan application's chances for success and approval. Cosigners play a critical role in helping borrowers to secure personal student loans and qualify for a lower rate. If you're a creditworthy cosigner, you can help a student responsibly borrow funds for their education. And often for a rate well below one they could get on their own.
Being a cosigner helps make a college education possible for the borrower, but the responsibility does come with financial risks. If the student defaults on the loan, the cosigner will be held liable for the remaining loan payments, and his or her credit history may be affected (in addition to the borrower's). There are also certain requirements the cosigner must meet. The cosigner must have a good credit history and demonstrate certain income requirements.
The Benefits of Making In-School Payments
Going into debt for college is often necessary for many families to achieve the goal of a higher education. If not done responsibly, managing debt after graduation can become an overwhelming task. Certain loans, such as the subsidized Stafford loan and the Perkins Loan have interest paid for by the government while the student is enrolled in school. However unsubsidized Stafford loans and private loans do accrue interest while the student is in school. Interest will continue to compound over the duration of enrollment.
In-school payments allow the student to make a standard minimum monthly payment towards the loan. This develops establish healthy financial habits and can help reduce the amount of total interest expense. More importantly, it helps the student to develop a credit history for future loans after graduation.
The ability to make a payment towards loans while in school has been available for both federal and private loans, but generally not promoted by private student loan providers, with most student borrowers electing to defer loan payments until after graduation. In-school payment provides the ability to reduce the debt load students face after graduation.
Low Rate Loans From Community Lenders
All loans on LendKey.com are funded by community lenders like credit unions and community banks. These financial institutions work with LendKey to keep operating costs low, and pass on the savings directly to you.
Unlike many larger banks that may take deposits in one state and lend in others, community banks and credit unions channel most of their loans to the neighborhoods where their depositors live and work, helping to keep local communities vibrant and growing.
A private student loan is a credit-based loan for college that be used to pay for qualified educational expenses including tuition, room and board, books, and other school related expenses. A private student loan serves as a way for students to fill the funding gap between the cost of attending school and the amount of federal loans, grants, and scholarships available to them.
No. However, we encourage students to complete the FAFSA each year, to ensure that you take full advantage of grants and other federal aid you may be eligible to receive. Again, private student loans are a way for students to fill the funding gap between the cost of attending school and the amount of federal loans, grants, and scholarships available to them.
While you may apply on your own, applying with a creditworthy cosigner can make all the difference when it comes to a loan application's chances for success and approval—and even result in a lower rate. Find out all the benefits of applying with a cosigner in this blog post.
Yes. You will need to reapply each academic year for a private student loan.
Federal student loans are available through the US Department of Education and offer fixed interest rates. Private student loans are credit-based loans, feature fixed and variable interest rates, and are available through credit unions or banks.
1 - Tax Deductible Interest Payments
The deduction is generally the smaller of $2,500 or the interest you paid in the calendar year. Please consult with a tax expert to understand if this option may be available to you.
2 - Cosigner Release
In order to qualify, the borrower, alone, must meet the lender's credit criteria, and the borrower's loan account must be and remain current up until the lender's decision to release the cosigner has been made.
3 - Autopay Rate Reduction
Subject to floor rate. The rate reduction will be removed and the rate will be increased by 0.25% upon any cancellation or failed collection attempt of the automatic payment and will be suspended during any period of deferment or forbearance. As a result, during the forbearance or suspension period, and/or if the automatic payment is cancelled, any increase will take the form of higher payments..

This week, the nation's capital welcomed more than 3,500 members of the DAR, one of its foremost service organizations. Members of the Rebecca Motte Chapter, based in Charleston, were in attendance at the 122nd Continental Congress, the annual convention. The DAR Continental Congress is a time-honored tradition that has been held in Washington, D.C. as the annual national meeting of the membership since the organization's founding, 123 years ago. National, state and chapter leaders from around the world meet at the DAR National Headquarters to report on the year's work, honor outstanding award recipients, plan future initiatives and reconnect with friends.
Highlights of the convention included opening night guest speakers Leigh Keno of "Antiques Roadshow," who received the DAR Historic Preservation Recognition Award, and Rich Little, comedian and voiceover actor, who received the DAR Americanism Award, given to a distinguished naturalized citizen.
On National Defense Night, an evening honoring our nation's military, the keynote address was delivered by Vice Admiral Robin R. Braun, U.S. Navy, and Lieutenant General Claude "Mick" Kicklighter, U.S. Army (Ret.), provided remarks as director of the DoD Vietnam War 50th Anniversary Commemoration. Additional awards that evening were presented to the Army Nurse of the Year and outstanding volunteers for veterans.
On Saturday evening, Ambassador John Limbert was honored with the Medal of Honor at the Gala Awards banquet. Actress Connie Stevens was presented with the Founders Medal for Patriotism, and the films "Honor Flight" and "Girl Rising" received DAR Media Awards. During the week, the DAR also honored the Outstanding Teacher of American History and the DAR American history essay contest winners.
"It's inspiring to see more than 3,500 members travel to Washington to celebrate the accomplishments of the past year to preserve the past, enhance the present and invest in the future," said Merry Ann T. Wright, president general. "Attendees show great enthusiasm to participate in seminars and workshops during the conference to enhance their work of promoting historic preservation, education and patriotism back in their communities. The reports given at our Continental Congress make it clear that the DAR is playing an important role in cities and towns across America."
Chapter delegates in attendance at the congress were State Organizing Secretary and Chapter Regent, Katie Hyman, of Mount Pleasant; South Carolina Outstanding Junior and State Women's Issues Chairman, Elizabeth Harrelson Burns, of Greenville; Mickey Sieracki, of Mount Pleasant; MaeRe Skinner, of Wando; and Barbara Speer, of Mount Pleasant. While at congress, they attended a weeklong schedule of business sessions, committee meetings, and social functions, including the South Carolina Dessert Extravaganza, Units Overseas Luncheon and International Bazaar, DAR School Supper, DAR Service for Veterans Luncheon, as well as formal evening ceremonies at which national DAR award winners were honored. Burns was appointed as National Junior Membership Committee Vice Chairman, Tamassee DAR School Representative at the end of congress.

Amortization Schedule
How your payments are applied.
An amortization schedule is a way to see exactly how your mortgage principal and interest payments are applied over the life of your loan. You can also see how principal curtailments (extra payments you may make periodically, over and above your normal payment) can dramatically lower the amount of interest you pay over the life of the loan. Using our amortization spreadsheet, you can change curtailment amounts to adjust the impacts of those extra payments.
If you are a Registered Personal Internet Banking customer, you can log on to your account and view your amortization schedule.
You can download our spreadsheet file and follow the directions below:
Directions to use the Amortization Spreadsheet:
- Use your most recent Monthly Mortgage Statement to get your loan amount, and interest rate, or locate the information on Internet Banking. You can also go to our rate calculator to approximate your payment terms.
- Key in the loan amount over the loan amount shown in blue.
- Key in the loan interest rate over the interest rate shown in blue.
- Key in the total number of monthly loan payments (not the number you may have left) over the number of loan payments shown in blue.
- Key in the monthly loan payment (principal and interest only) over the monthly payment shown in blue.
- Under the word MONTH, key in the number of the month that the first payment was or will be due.
- Under the word DAY, key in the number of the day in the month that the first payment was or will be due. That's usually the first day of each month for mortgages.
- Under the word YEAR, key in the full four-digit year that the first payment was or will be due.
- Press the F9 key to calculate your results. This will give you the application of payments throughout your term (for example, 15, 20 or 30 years).
Accelerated Payments Column: Accelerated Payments Column: This column allows you to enter a fixed additional amount or to place additional principal payments in designated months to see how they will shorten your mortgage term. For example, to make an extra $1,000 payment each May after you receive your income tax refund, enter $1,000 wherever you see the month of May in column "A". You can do this for every year during your loan term, or you can put it in just the first few years to try it. When finished, press the F9 key again to calculate the new payments. If you scroll down the sheet, you can see how making just a few extra payments will shorten your loan. In fact, adding a $20.00 payment every month will shorten your term considerably.

A Focus on the Here and Now
The nostalgic memories we have of the past may seem appealing--but they require closer inspection.
By Rabbi Kerry M. Olitzky
We Also Recommend
This commentary is provided by special arrangement with the Jewish Outreach Institute, an organization dedicated to creating a more open and welcoming Judaism. To learn more, visit www.joi.org.
In keeping with a theme we've seen in recent weeks, the title of this portion seems to tell it all. But digging a little bit deeper, the Hebrew construction of the phrase–shlah lekha (literally, "send for you")–beckons for more interpretation. It seems to be written as an emphatic. It is not simply a request made by God of Moses. Rather, it highlights the way in which Moses is to send out his advance team. Some will argue that the Hebrew implies a great deal more than even the emphasis that is clearly present in the text suggests.
In a well-known passage of the Torah, Moses is directed by God to send out scouts to investigate the land of Israel. It seems like a simple activity; in truth, any smart military strategist would send an advance team ahead to inspect an unknown area, especially if an enemy's presence is anticipated.
The lekha–resonant of the charge to Abraham early in the book of Genesis (lekh lekha)–is a hint to Moses that he will have to look deeply into himself (lekha) if he is to truly understand the reports of the scouts. The scouts will return with facts and figures about the land, but no information is objective. Everything must be scrutinized, especially when it is as serious as plotting out the future journey of the Jewish people.
And indeed Moses learns that the scouts scoured the land but returned with two contradictory reports. Only Caleb and Joshua see the full potential in the land. The others are fearful and ready to retreat, to return to Egypt, even to the slavery they fought hard to leave behind.
It is not clear what Caleb and Joshua thought about the past–but in actuality, it doesn't matter. They are guided by the present as they envision the future. The event seems reminiscent of the false trips down the nostalgic memory lane of the shtetl that the American Jewish community experienced some years ago. They forgot that the dreamy shtetl life with all of its wonderments was terrible. That is why our ancestors left and moved to these shores.
According to the Torah text, the episode that documents this part of the Jewish people's journey in this week's Torah reading saddens God greatly. After redeeming the Israelites from Egypt, guiding them through the desert and bringing them to the edge of the Promised Land, the people are still not satisfied.
The events of the Exodus–and even the revelation of Sinai and the various encounters in the desert–seem to be insufficient to impress the Israelites. They are in a "What have You done for us lately?" mood. The people rebelled against Moses and against God.
Moses shows great compassion for the people and asks God to forgive them. God agrees but not without punishment. The people who could not embrace the future would not be entitled to see it.
Nostalgia for Days Gone By
Perhaps we are at a similar point in the journey of the Jewish people in this land of promise called America. There are those who see a future that is untenable and wish to return to the past. And others see the reality that confronts us and choose to embrace it fully.
The nostalgic memories we have of the way things used to be may seem appealing on the surface, but, as the title of this portion shows, some things require closer inspection for complete understanding. When we examine our memories more closely, we can learn a great deal more. Things may not have been as rosy as we remember them to be, and we may be better served by focusing on the present.
We should heed the important lessons that this portion provides through its depiction of the actions of Caleb and Joshua and apply them to our own lives today. By refusing to become bogged down in halcyon memories of bygone days and focusing instead on the here and now, we can work to create a more optimistic future for us all. It remains our only option.

Prednisolone For Sale
Prednisolone For Sale, Pretty much every MMORPG blogger in the known universe is going through the predictions made last year, and are scoring themselves on the success of those predictions. While I did make some predictions last December, I was going to give this a miss but, Prednisolone treatment, alas, Prednisolone wiki, have succumbed to this particular blogger malady. I made 10 prognostications for 2010, so here they are in all their glory, where can i order Prednisolone without prescription.
Prediction #1 -- The Star Trek Online release date would be pushed back once or twice from the release date, Prednisolone maximum dosage, with a probability of 90%. Result: Wrong. Completely, Prednisolone For Sale. While STO did need to be held back and given some more developer love, effects of Prednisolone, it was released on time. Fast shipping Prednisolone, Prediction #2 -- Cataclysm will be released in November or December. I gave this a probability of 80%. Result: Nailed It, Prednisolone over the counter. Prednisolone For Sale, Cataclysm was released on December 7.
Prediction #3 -- Star Wars: The Old Republic will be announced for a October release, Rx free Prednisolone, but likely won't make it and be pushed back to November. Result: Wrong. SW:TOR was announced to release in Spring '11, buy Prednisolone online no prescription.
Prediction #4 -- Taking #2 and #3 into account, Prednisolone description, Blizzard will try and cut Bioware's lunch by announcing Cataclysm to launch around the same time as SW:TOR. Result: Wrong, Prednisolone For Sale. This was heavily dependant on EA-Bioware announcing the release for late 2010. (As noted.) As the date was for Spring 2011, what is Prednisolone, this fell well outside Blizzards window. Prednisolone pharmacy, If SW:TOR had been announced for Jan/Feb 2011, I suspect we might have seen a Feb release for Cataclsym.
Prediction #5 -- The micro-transaction model will be applied to more existing games, Prednisolone used for. Prednisolone For Sale, A probability of 100%. Result: Well, Prednisolone coupon, Duh. 100% correct. What surprised me though was the games that it was applied too, Prednisolone trusted pharmacy reviews, and how it was done. Buy Prednisolone no prescription, LotRO going free to play surprised me considering how well the game was going, and had been received. (It seemed a little crazy to mess with something going that well.) And EQ2, while having a long established cash shop, surprised me by adding the free to play servers that were much more dependent on microtransactions to progress, Prednisolone For Sale.
Prediction #6 -- The MMORPG community will be rocked by some big IP lawsuits between larger companies, is Prednisolone addictive. Result: Didn't really hit that mark. Cheap Prednisolone no rx, There is the BethesdaInterplay Fallout IP lawsuit happening of course, but it's not really a community rocking event, more a spat between two companies, online Prednisolone without a prescription, one who is intent on seeing the other fail so they can get all the rights to the Fallout IP. Prednisolone duration, Other than that, nothing much. Prednisolone For Sale, Still... it's just a matter of time really, Prednisolone class.
Prediction #7 -- The first of the long-shots. Ordering Prednisolone online, Turbine announces that AC will go free to play. Probability, 10%, Prednisolone price, coupon. Result: Ba Bahm, Prednisolone For Sale. LotRO beat AC to the punch on that one. Where can i buy Prednisolone online, This may still happen, but further reading indicates that the architecture of the AC servers may actually thwart any major systems such as a microtransaction model being implemented, and unfortunately, after Prednisolone, that seems to be the only reason for a game to go to the FTP model these days. Real brand Prednisolone online, Prediction #8 -- Blizzard will announce the name and details of their new MMORPG. 10% chance of this happening. Result: Prednisolone For Sale, Wrong. This was not likely as Blizz always hold info back until the last moment, where can i buy cheapest Prednisolone online. Some details have been released, Herbal Prednisolone, but only the codename of the project.
Prediction #9 -- SOE will announce Everquest 3 with a probability of 20%. Result: Kinda right, buy Prednisolone online cod. I was a bit skeptical, but it does seem like this is happening, Prednisolone For Sale. However, Online buying Prednisolone hcl, the official announcement of EQ3 has not been made as far as I'm aware. It's more hinting than anything else.
Prediction #10 -- EA will announce the next Ultima Online MMORPG, Prednisolone blogs. I gave this a 1 in 100 chance, Buying Prednisolone online over the counter, somewhat jokingly. Result: Prednisolone For Sale, Correct. Sort of. EA announced and released Lord of Ultima which has been critically received as crap, Prednisolone from canada, and nothing to actually do with Ultima Online and more to be a competitor to Evony. Purchase Prednisolone online no prescription, Still, since EA own the IP they can use it anyway they like, and if they choose to make this an Ultima MMO.., my Prednisolone experience.
So there you have it. Last years predictions with a score of 4-ish out of 10. Not really that great a score, the future is inherintly unpredictable, but then the only reason that Nostradamus did so well was because he wrote his predictions in riddles and prose ambiguous enoughto fit any future event. Hmmm. Maybe that's the way to write out 2011's predictions.

played the first one and loved it. cant wait for this one
Ravenmark: Mercenaries promises deep strategic warfare on iPad
We got a sneak peek at the sequel to the hugely popular warfare strategy game, Ravenmark, at PAX East 2013, and it's looking solid. The main thing in Ravenmark: Mercenaries is asynchronous multiplayer, but there's a lot going on here. Loyal Ravenmark players will also get access to an exclusive unit, which is a nice touch.
Players create their own banners and hire out their swords to warring nations in a richly-historied fantasy world. You can always engage in simple skirmish missions for your coin, over time upgrading your regiments and capitalizing on their experience, or you can take the challenge to your friends for fame and fortune.The units you can hire range from the usual infantry, cavalry, and archers, to more fantastic monsters and machines of war. On the battlefield grid, players have a wide array of tactical options imposed by mobility, terrain, and positioning.
I've spent a fair bit of time in miniatures wargaming, so it was great to see something with equal tactical depth coming to iPad with full multiplayer capabilities. Besides that, fantasy geeks will really be able to sink their teeth into the game's storyline, especially if they've been following closely since the lsat game. If you fancy yourself a cunning military genius, be sure to download Ravenmark: Mercenaries when it launches in about two months.

Ravenmark: Mercenaries promises deep strategic warfare on iPad
What are the other games/app in this series. And are the on iPhone or just iPad or MacBook
The first game was great, I'm hoping next is just as good!)
Looking forward to this. Looks like it is coming along nicely!
Hi! This is Khai representing Witching Hour Studios, the dev team that brought you the Ravenmark saga. To answer your question, the battle experience itself will not be tainted by IAPs. It's more to do with reducing waiting time while a brigade heals themselves and such. As of yet, we don't plan on making any IAP exclusive brigades. Cheers!
I'd also like to thank everyone for the support and interest shown for our previous and upcoming titles! We're still working hard to make sure we have an awesome launch build and we definitely hope to improve from the first game. For a small indie team like ours, it's always heartening to see people enjoying our game! Cheers fellas!

The entire ecosystem of the planet is doodling "Mrs. Ryan Gosling" in it's notebook today after Ryan Gosling visited zoo animals with co-star Evan Rachel Wood. The pair are in Ohio to film The Ides Of March with George Clooney, and Ryan took the time Monday to tenderly show his affection to the okapis, sloths and adorable penguins of the Cincinati Zoo And Botanical Garden. It's like the beginning of The Lion King, except instead of baby Simba Rafiki's holding up Ryan's leather jacket and two tickets to Rango (or whatever movies animals like to see; we aren't the Dog Whisperer over here).
Not content to romance the animals of the land and air, Gosling took Olivia Wilde to a Cincinnati aquarium to see if his handsomeness transmits through water. Good thing there's a thick pane of glass between Olivia and those manatees, is all we're saying. You can check out more photos of Ryan at the zoo over at Best Week Ever. Just be aware that you're going to have to physically restrain your pets from trying to crawl inside your monitor.

GeoRiot is a free tool that may be useful to those of you who are marketing Amazon Kindle e-books.
I'm going to explain it simply because not everyone will be familiar with the basic concepts.
Amazon stores are country specific i.e. those of us living in Britain shop through Amazon.co.uk, those in the US buy through Amazon.com and there are also geographic specific sites for France, India, Germany and many more.
Most e-book marketing is global via the internet, using blog posts, Facebook, newsletters, paid-for adverts etc. Authors using these methods will endeavour to provide readers with a direct link to the Amazon page for the e-book being promoted.
However, unless the author provides the individual link for each geographical Amazon site, there will be users somewhere in the world who don't reach their 'home' Amazon site and, if they want to buy the book, will have to navigate there by themselves. Many of them won't bother. When the link provided doesn't take them where they want to go, they'll click on to something else instead.
But it looks clumsy and messy to list around a dozen Amazon links every time you mention your book on the web.
GeoRiot creates a single web address for an Amazon product. This address will always take the user directly to his 'home' Amazon site. If the link is clicked in the UK then it will route the user to Amazon.co.uk, if the link is clicked in the US then it will route the user to Amazon.com and so on.
Here's an example. When advertising Kindle Direct Publishing for Absolute Beginners I could list each geographical link:
For buyers in the UK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kindle-Direct-Publishing-Absolute-Beginners-ebook/dp/B00IJFG1W4/
For buyers in the US: http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Direct-Publishing-Absolute-Beginners-ebook/dp/B00IJFG1W4/
For buyers in Australia: http://www.amazon.com.au/Kindle-Direct-Publishing-Absolute-Beginners-ebook/dp/B00IJFG1W4/
etc. etc.
Or I can use just one global link provided by GeoRiot: http://georiot.co/40oj
I think it looks much more professional to provide a single link.
GeoRiot provide this service for free unless you are an Amazon affiliate and then they take a small percentage of your affiliate earnings. For more details on how this payment system works see the GeoRiot website and Nick Daws' comprehensive blog post where he goes into this and the mechanics of GeoRiot in much more detail than I have.
That's it – I hope I haven't blinded any of you with science!
April 17, 2014 at 4:30 pm
Many thanks for highlighting this. I'm a member of some international groups who are largely US-based, so their amazon links are all to the .com site and I have to log on to the .co.uk site and search for the book.
April 17, 2014 at 4:35 pm
A very sensible idea. I've often clicked on a link to a book and been puzzled by the price being in dollars until I realise I'm on the American or Australian site. And it is a bit of a faff to then look for the same book on the UK site.
April 18, 2014 at 7:20 am
Another post to bookmark, Sally – you are a wealth of useful information!
April 19, 2014 at 3:40 pm
Thanks for linking to my post, Sally. It's worth adding that GeoRiot has some other useful features as well. For example, you can get detailed stats about how many people are clicking on your links and where they are from. From GeoRiot I discovered that more Americans were clicking on my links than Brits which (being a Brit myself) quite surprised me. And, of course, you can have GeoRiot incorporate your Amazon affiliate code/s if you like. If you are an affiliate with both the UK and US Amazon sites, for example, GeoRiot will attach the appropriate code according to where your visitor is from.

For my daughter's birthday we are making ice cream in a bag with a friend. Normally, I am not a fan of making food in plastic, but it's kind of a science experiment and a tasty treat in one, that she first saw on Kid Concoctions, so we are using plastic bags. If you have two jars that can nest inside one another, you can use those too. In ten minutes you have a creamy ice cream treat. Try adding mix ins to make different flavors. Mix ins we like are: Enjoy Life chocolate chips, strawberries, and blueberries. Try cutting off the edge of the bag and they can squeeze it out which makes it a soft serve treat.
We are using a recipe from crafts.kaboose.com's Homemade Ice Cream in a Bag: Summer Crafts for Kids:
We are using a recipe from crafts.kaboose.com's Homemade Ice Cream in a Bag: Summer Crafts for Kids:
What you'll need:
- 1 tablespoon sugar or agave
- 1/2 cup milk or half & half or coconut milk
- 1/4 teaspoon gluten free vanilla
- 6 tablespoons rock salt (or regular salt)
- 1 pint-size plastic food storage bag (e.g., Ziploc) or jar
- 1 gallon-size plastic food storage bagor jar
- Ice cubes
How to make it:
- Fill the large bag half full of ice, and add the rock salt. Seal the bag.
- Put milk, vanilla, and sugar into the small bag, and seal it.
- Place the small bag inside the large one, and seal it again carefully.
- Shake until the mixture is ice cream, which takes about 5 minutes.
- Wipe off the top of the small bag, then open it carefully. Enjoy!

The 2012-2013 NBGSA Conference Committee is seeking proposals for papers, posters, oral presentations, panels, and workshops that focus on our conference theme: "Honoring the Past, Defining the Future."
We invite you to join us as we commit to the future, reflect on the past, encourage our communities, and boldly blaze new trails! While proposals related to this theme are especially welcome, proposals addressing any topic of interest to the diverse membership of the National Black Graduate Student Association will be considered.
We are soliciting research papers involving a single topic and explaining the issues, methodologies, and outcomes involved. Submissions will be automatically eligible for a cash prize of $200 for first place, $100 for second place, and $50 for third place. Competition winners and a selection of the best papers will be eligible for publication in Call and Response: The Scholarly Journal of the National Black Graduate Student Association Papers will be refereed by specially selected disciplinary and interdisciplinary professors and graduate students.
A scholarly paper may be a research report, case study, methodological paper, theoretical paper, or scientific analysis. The text should not exceed 25 double-spacedpages and should follow the guidelines of the associated discipline (MLA, APA, etc.). No more than four tables and/or figures may be included.
Posters are ideal for presenting speculative in-progress work; late-breaking results; for giving an introduction to interesting, innovative work; or for presenting research from the hard sciences. Posters are intended to provide authors and participants with the ability to connect with each other and to engage in discussions about the work. Poster sizes are not specified; however, they should be at least 17" by 22". Presenters are encouraged to bring 25 handouts for distribution during the session. All posters will automatically be entered in the poster competition. Submissions will be automatically eligible for a cash prize of $100 for first place, $50 for second place, and $25 for third place.
Oral presentations are brief discussions of a focused research topic. Presentations are 12 minutes in length with five additional minutes allotted to each presenter for questions. While there is a paper competition, students who are interested in presenting research orally are not required to enter the competition. All oral presenters will automatically be entered in the oral presentation competition. Submissions will be automatically eligible for a cash prize of $100 for first place, $50 for second place, and $25 for third place.
Workshops and panels are not forums for research presentation; rather, they should focus on a single topic or theme related to the graduate experience or the conference theme. These hour-long workshops should focus on fostering discussion and must not be presentation only; the major portion of the time should be devoted to discussion. Panels should not have more than five presenters. Sessions can be geared toward undergraduates looking forward to graduate school, or issues related to current graduate students
This includes the title of the paper, poster, oral presentation, panel, or workshop; authors(s)/presenter(s); phone number; category; presentation format and length; and audiovisual requirements.
The abstract must contain the title plus no less than 150 and no more than 200 words describing the paper, poster, oral presentation, panel, or workshop. The abstract should be in Microsoft Word format.
If submitting a proposal for the paper competition, please note that full papers are due no later than March 1, 2013.
While proposals will be evaluated on a rolling basis, they must be received by Friday, February 1st, 2013. You should receive confirmation of receipt within 72 hours of sending your proposal. Notification of proposal dispositions will be sent within two weeks of receipt confirmation.

Modern Family star Sarah Hyland used to be a dog person trapped in a cat person's body. "I grew up in New York City, and my mom said it wasn't fair to have a dog in an apartment," she tells PEOPLEPets.com. "So we had cats, but I always wanted a dog."
Fast-forward several years, and the 19-year-old actress is the proud owner of Barkley Bixby, a 9-month-old maltipoo. "My boyfriend [High School Musical's Matt Proko] and I were talking about getting a dog, and he told me we should hold off until we get a bigger place," she explains. "Then, he just surprised me one day. He told me he was picking up some friends at the airport, and instead he picked up Barkley."
Describing her pooch as "amazing," Hyland says that she's trained the dog herself, and loves letting him run around her spacious backyard. "It sucks when I have long hours and can't see him all day, but between my boyfriend and I, it works out," she says. "For now, we're happy with one dog, but I think Barkley needs a playmate soon so he has someone to keep him company."
Perhaps a career would keep him busy? While Hyland doesn't want him to get into acting – "I don't want him to be the world's dog, I just want him to be mine," she says, laughing – she thinks modeling could be in his future. "Every time we take a picture of him he looks right into the lens," she says. "He'd be a great dog model."
Though Barkley is pretty adorable, it's his moniker that's most interesting. "Barkley Bixby comes from Modern Family," Hyland explains. Barkley is the name of a dog butler figurine belonging to Ed O'Neill's family on the show, while Bixby was the fictional last name given to Ty Burrell's character on last year's Valentine's Day episode. "Matt came up with Barkley, I came up with Bixby," she says.
So does a dog named for the hit show get to visit the set? Not quite yet. "I wouldn't want to leave him alone in my trailer," she says. "I don't want him to start barking or chewing stuff up. We'll wait until he's older."
For now, Hyland just has to hope her TV family, the Dunphys, add a dog to their brood instead. "I really wish that'd happen," she says. "I love dogs, and it'd be so much fun to have one on set!'

Balloon Flip
This is a music video for "Get Up and Go," a catchy tune by the U.K. rock band Broadcast 2000. The song sounds like DeVotchKa circa Little Miss Sunshine, and the video looks like nothing you've ever seen before. The creator is Vancouver Film School student Jordan Clarke. Enjoy him while he's still indie. Mark my word: This guy's going to be making big-budget commercials for a living.
The title says it all: Kids doing flips and making impossible jumps while holding green balloons. Green is the operative color featured in the film's otherwise black-and-white cinematography (except for a brief burst of sunlight). It's on the kids' shirts, it's in the background, and it leaves a trail as balloons are waved in the air. Some of the stunts appear to have been accomplished through reverse photography. The rest we can chalk up to the magic of cinema.
Balloon Flip makes me want to eat Skittles. I told you Clarke is going to be a great commercial director one day.

Mid-day, Mumbai, Modified:
The sun has gone easy on the eyes, there's a nip in the air, and with the media hammering about Valentine's Day, romance is mixed in too. It's the perfect scene to set up your barbeque grill, before summer arrives. The Guide invited some of the city's restaurants, popular For their barbecued delights, to share their secret recipes. We've made things simpler too now, you can get skewed into things, with your own barbecue set
Why barbecuing food is good
"Barbeque, if done the right way, can actually work as a low- calorie way of cooking, as the nutrients are not lost, completely. The added cream, cheese, batter and basting (coating with a brush or liquid poured over with a spoon) of butter increases the fat content. Also, if it has more spices, it has more fat in it as you need additional oil or butter to blend the spices well. So, if you are calorie-conscious, ask your chef to skip the basting, as the marinade and the juices of the meat are sufficient to add flavors to the dish."
Toasty feta kebabs
One of the first city eateries to offer the thrill of barbequing at the table, Barbeque Nation's recipe will be a hit with veggie readers.

BURLINGTON, Wis. (WFRV) - Governor Scott Walker will sign his Property Tax Relief Measure into law Sunday, during a local farm event in Burlington.
The $100 million tax cut was introduced last week, easily passing the State Senate on a 28-5 vote, and then passing the State Assembly, 82-12, on Thursday.
The tax relief measure will force typical property tax bills to drop by $13 this year.

HuffPost Live Appearance: John Hawkins vs. 5 Liberals On Class Warfare
Yesterday, I did a HuffPost Live segment called, "Us Vs. Them: From Bain Capital to the 47%, the Obama campaign became an extended argument about economic class. Has politics become a class war?"
It was truly an US vs. Them segment with me going toe-to-toe with 4 liberal guests. Granted, that wasn't fair, but they already had a three person advantage and if they added another 2-3 people, I still don't think it would have evened it up for their side.

As an original Mousketeer, you garnered some fame.
A generation of youngsters knew you by name.
From a little girl, you grew on television and the movies.
Success seemed to come in blowing like the breeze.
In a bikini with a surfboard on the beach,

BOSTON — Sophomore back Ugochukwu Uche (Ann Arbor, Mich.) posted four shots, including two on goal attempts, but the University of New Hampshire men's soccer team fell to Boston University, 3-0, Wednesday evening at Nickerson Field.
The loss drops UNH to 6-8-2 overall and 1-3-2 in America East play, while BU improves to 9-7-0 and 5-1-0 in conference action.
The Terriers scored the game's first tally when Dominique Badji received a pass from Peter Mehlert and punched in his fifth goal of the season at 32:40, giving the home team the early 1-0 edge.
Boston University carried its advantage into the second half after outshooting UNH (11-0) in the first stanza. Despite the shot advantage, corner kicks were even at 1-1 at the end of the first half.
Ben Berube helped BU keep the pace up in the second frame, notching a score just 3:28 into play. Badji was also in on the goal, setting up Berube with a pass and he was able to finish the play, firing a shot that found the back of the net at 48:28.
Both squads remained scoreless for the next 32:31, until Stephen Knox put the game away for good with a goal at 80:59. Cameron Souri was credited with the assist on the play, helping the home team post a 3-0 advantage they would not relinquish.
Boston University finished the contest with a 21-10 edge in shots, as both teams were even with 10 shots apiece in the final frame of play. The Terriers also claimed the advantage in corner kicks (5-2), posting a 4-1 edge in the second half.
The Wildcats are back in action on Saturday, Oct. 29 (2 p.m.) when they take on the University at Albany at Varsity Field.

Best Uses
This is the third bean tower I've purchased. They come in two pieces and are super easy to assemble, take apart at the end of the season, and fold to store compactly in my shed. I stand 100% behind this product and am looking forward to purchasing more next year for vining flowers. Well worth the modest price!!!

Best Uses
- Growing Pole Beans
I bought one of these bean towers, tried it out, then a week later bought another. They're sturdy and well made. My super exuberant bean plants would like them to be taller, but then I wouldn't be able to reach the beans at the top.
Good, useful product, easy enough to assemble.
- Was this a gift?:
- No
Best Uses
Size is very good, both footprint size and height. 'Legs' could be longer so wouldn't have to buy staples. Also, attaching segments could be made easier.

I was well satisfied with the bean tower. It is quite sturdy and goes together easy. Anxious to see how it is with beans climbing up it.

Very easy to set up, sturdy, has held up to 30+ mph wind gusts. Much more attractive than my past trellising attempts that would fall down in stormy weather. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. I have 3 of these in a 4x4 raised bed planted with pole beans.

Super "Bowl" Sunday: The Gut Check Guide to Curing the Munchies
Want. | Jennifer Silverberg
We realized a few months ago the Dam (3173 Morganford Road; 314-771-3173) is a stoner's dream. Plus, you can watch the game right next door at Amsterdam Tavern. As our restaurant critic Cheryl Baehr put it in her review, "the Dam will leave you staggering out of its doors in a decadence-induced hallucinogenic stupor, not unlike the conditions under which its menu was possibly conceived. Thankfully, this culinary red-light district is 100 percent legal."
May we recommend the "Animal"? The three-patty holdover from owner Michele Coen-Racanelli previous venture, Big V's, is topped with American cheese, grilled onions, barbecue sauce and a whole, grilled jalapeno. You can thank us later.

|The Highest Science
Emperor of the Daleks! was a 1993 multi-Doctor comic story in the pages of Doctor Who Magazine. Its publication ran across the landmark 200th issue of DWM and part which appeared in that issue was originally printed in full colour, a highly unusual occurrence in the magazine at that time.
Narratively, the story was remarkable for the fact that it brought together the Sixth and Seventh Doctors, Davros, Abslom Daak and Bernice Summerfield. It was also continuity-heavy. It demanded the reader have a fair grasp of Daak's backstory, which had been printed in the magazine ten years earlier. More significantly, though, the story acted as a prequel to Remembrance of the Daleks, giving the reader a Davros story set between Revelation and Remembrance.
In short, the story was aptly titled because it explained how Davros became the Dalek Emperor.
Summary Edit
to be added
Characters Edit
- Seventh Doctor
- Benny
- Sixth Doctor
- Peri
- Abslom Daak
- Harma
- Salander
- Davros
- Emperor Dalek
- Imperial and Renegade Daleks
References Edit
- The Doctor uses Dalekanium wire to diffuse Dalek weaponry. According to the Doctor, it is "terribly expensive stuff."
- The Daleks mention events that took place on planet Hell involving Abslom Daak, including his apparent death.
- The Sixth Doctor, on meeting the Seventh Doctor, says, "I hope you appreciated that mattress in Perivale."
- There's an Alpha Centauran bar attendant at the bar the Doctor(s), Benny and Ablsom Daak go to.
- Benny quotes from Monty Python's Dead Parrot sketch when she pulls a gun on the seemingly unhinged Abslom Daak and says, "Listen, you. This girlfriend is dead. She has ceased to be."
Notes Edit
- The Psyche Dalek makes a brief appearance.
Continuity Edit
- The story picks up plot threads from TV: Planet of the Daleks, TV: Revelation of the Daleks and COMIC: Nemesis of the Daleks, and, thanks to time travel, also acts as a prequel to TV: Remembrance of the Daleks (from Davros' point of view). The Doctor drops hints about the Hand of Omega, Davros gains an army of Daleks and ends up in a different casing all setting up for TV: Remembrance of the Daleks (which incidentally is in the past for the Seventh Doctor).
- The Sixth Doctor mentions a "mattress in Perivale" to the Seventh Doctor. This is a reference to TV: Survival . However, in that particular story, the Doctor landed on an abandoned sofa, not a mattress, so presumably the Sixth Doctor is misremembering slightly. (On the other hand, writer Paul Cornell could have slipped up.)
- Benny claims to have done a thesis on Ice Warrior humour, and treats Harma to a bad joke in the language of the Ice Warrors. This is consistent with several other stories, like PROSE: Legacy, where she's an expert in Ice Warrior culture.

A full report is also available, including survey results, consumption and production data, along with an economic analysis and sources. Sample aspects of the study are below... Part of our project was to determine a healthy diet that could be grown in our region. A "task force" of doctors, dietitians, and nutritionist systematically evaluated both the diet and the crops that can be grown to determine an excellent Healthy Diet that can reduce our annual health care cost. This Western Lake Superior Healthy Diet can be seen in comparison to the Standard American Diet (SAD) in this graph. Diet Comparison Notice that the total caloric intake has been greatly reduced. This new diet is very close to the USDA recommended diet, but efforts were made to improve the ratio's of the Omega 9, 6, & 3. To get the story on how we came up with this new diet, see the WLS Healthy Diet Report To get an idea of how much food we need to produce and how much land will be needed for our current and future diets, check out these data sets, Meat & Milk & Nuts & Seeds & Legumes & Fruit & Vegetable & Grains & Fats & Oils & Sugar So, how much land will it take to create a local food system for the Standard American Diet (SAD) and the Western Lake Superior Healthy Diet (WLSHD)? Food Acres Summary The summary is still incomplete since I still have Fats & Oils and several sub-meat categories left to calculate. It is important to note, that some data overlap, distorting the totals to some degree. Example: the byproduct of producing vegetable oil is a mash which is used for livestock feed. I have calculated the acres for oil production and the acres for animal feed separately, while some acres are shared. Please contact us with questions and stay tuned for additional postings of our research. Click here for our References Document The 15 county 2007 Farm Census reveals that there is quite a bit of land being farmed & a significant financial impact from farming in our region. The challenges seen in this file are that the number of farmers have greatly reduced and the "profit" of farms is marginal.

Even though she recently got engaged to long-time boyfriend Brandon Blackstock, there are some folks out there who still believe that Kelly Clarkson is secretly a lesbian. The singer has faced whispers about her sexuality for years, but she has never shied away from it. In fact, she's says she out and proud to be a rumored lesbian!
"People think, 'Oh, she's been single for too long.' That's kind of an insult to the gay community," she said in a recent interview with Cosmopolitan Magazine. She apparently had a six year dry spell before hitting it off with Joey McIntyre in February of 2011. "Being single doesn't mean you're gay. But I'm never insulted by it, obviously. I mean, I get hit on by the hottest girls ever. Oh my god, if I were a lesbian, I would be so in luck. But it's not just my thing. I've always battled for the boys' team."
On top of a constant stream of tours, recording dates, and other chores of the superstar lifestyle, Kelly admits to another reason why she was single for so long. "Usually the guys who hit on me are tools. It's the ones that don't hit on you that make you like 'Why didn't you ask me out?' It's like American Idol auditions: The guys who are the most confident are the horrible ones, and the ones who are good have no confidence at all." But it sounds like Kelly is just as good as Simon Cowell at putting the jerks in their place.
Kelly also credits her relationship with Blackstock for her epic weight loss last year. "I lost 18 pounds," she says. "And I think that happens when you fall in love or date someone. If I'm going to be messing around, I gotta look good." She continued her ride on the real-talk express by admitting that she slimmed down thanks to good old fashioned hard work. "There's not a fad diet…I just cut back my portions, I stopped eating late at night, and I work out a little more than I used to, and I literally dropped 18 pounds in a month." So…you're saying that our Mallomars at Midnight diet isn't going to cut it, Kelly?

Why can't Obama ever poll over 50 percent?
Wall Street is strong. Main Street is weak. That's one reason. Another reason might be exactly what pundits said during the closing night of the Democratic National Convention, that the incumbent President has been unable to explain himself to voters. The great salesman of 2008 has lost his touch.
According to the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll, 47 percent of the roughly 1,500 people polled said they would vote for Obama and 43 percent said they would choose Romney if the election were held this weekend. The president hasn't been over 50 in a while, which means independents have not been sold on giving him a second chance. Moreover, his progressive base feel they have been sold a bill of goods.
When asked by Ipsos pollsters which candidate would be best for the job market, 42 percent said the current President while 35 percent choose Romney.
Obama's ranking in that category has improved since the start of the month. It was 34 percent on Aug. 28 and rose marginally to 36 percent by Sept. 6 before reaching 42 percent post-convention, Reuters reported.
The economy is the main story for voters this year, with 72 percent of those polled saying the economy was still on the wrong track. Another 66 percent said the job market was the second most important issue in the election. When asked how they viewed Obama, 54 percent said they viewed him "favorable". Romney's likability was just 49 percent.
