Has anyone here tried experimenting with Campari and Limoncello?
Any thoughts?
I've not tried Campari and limoncello, but I can tell you that Campari goes very, very well with bitter lemon soda.

I vaguely recall moving my hand in a karate chop fashion on a wooden table top and repeating over and over "what makes a a good drink GREAT is: booze, booze, garnish!"

Sort of off topic. My wife and I were up in St. Helena, CA, and noticed they have a locally made soda there called Roto Frizzante. From the description on the menu, "non-sweet, vaguely citrus-like, with an attractive astringency," and bright red color, I knew exactly what it was. Campari and soda without alcohol. We tried some, it had more cherry and citrus to it than Campari; but, was otherwise an exact clone. I guess those Gott boys are spending their fortune on trips to Italy and wanted to bring the flavor back home...
Sounds like Sanbitter to me, of which I just bought ten small stylish bottles. I haven't done much sampling yet but I'm thinking it's non-alchoholic Campari, maybe with a little more bitterness.

The first time I had Campari was when someone was mixing tall drinks with Campari and Pellegrino Aranciata Amara. I liked it from the get-go. (This drink isn't nearly as good with regular aranciata-- got to be amara.)
Oh, I've been drinking it with the regular Aranciata this summer, and also with the Pellegrino Limonata, depending on how sweet I feel like. I will have to source some of the Amara.
I made some pretty tasty cocktails this summer with Campari, icy-cold vodka, and Ruby Red pink grapefruit juice (not from concentrate), in a martini glass. I'm guessing 1.5 oz. Campari, 1.5 oz. vodka, 1 oz. juice, from the size of my glass.
And there's nothing like a little shot of Campari when your stomach is unhappy.

In the hot afternoons, I like to make a sort-of Campari highball
1.5 oz Campari
1.5 oz Sweet Vermouth
Stir with ice
Top with Tonic Water
I guess you could call it a Cautious Americano
The sweetness of the tonic water cuts the Campari down a bit. Plus I'm a huge fan of tonic water (I enjoy it on its own). anyways, it works for me.

Surely some bold New Yorker can get over there and get ratios, eh?
Grammercy Tavern in NYC is serving a Campari Margarita on their summer menu (don't know if that just changed). If memory serves, it included a gold tequila, lime juice, campari, and cointreau. Sorry... no ratio info, but it was tasty

It was over-iced, the same problem I have with old-fashioneds when I order them out, and the gin was a little stronger than I'd go for if I made it myself -- but it was still a good way to discover Campari, and since we were stopping at the liquor store on the way home anyway, I picked up a bottle and a six-pack of Schweppes bitter lemon.
Other than a caipirinha to check out the new cachaca I bought, I haven't drunk anything without Campari since, and am at the end of the bottle. After a few different orange-and-Campari-and-soda drinks and a stab at Campari-and-Coke that I didn't think worked, I ran out of oranges and have been drinking it with soda or tonic, sometimes a splash of gin, sometimes lemon or lime, often a shake of Gary Regan's orange bitters.
(The comparison I've been using with friends is that Campari is a lot like Moxie, but unfortunately that's made most of them refuse to try it.)
I've tried combinations with limoncello, but haven't found any I like yet. Kind of curious about Campari and rye or Campari and bourbon.
It'll definitely be one of those liquors I replenish as soon as I'm out of it.

I would think that Campari with limoncello would be way too sweet.

As for Campari and rye, you could try a variation on the Red Hook. The Red Hook is 2 ounces of rye and a half-ounce each of Punt e Mes and maraschino liqueur, stirred with ice and strained. You could sub Campari for the Punt e Mes for more bitter herbal bite.

Unfortunately, no luck with maraschino liqueur here yet -- the trouble with living in a college town is the effect it has on liquor availability. But it's on my look-for list next time I'm out of town so I can make my own Aviations -- this is a good reason to bump it up (or suggest it as a Christmas gift from friends in luckier locales).
Definitely like the sound of that, though.

campari beginners should give the eden a whirl. served at the flat iron lounge its gin campari lemon and rose syrup. very subtle.
This reminded me of the Rooh Afza syrup that I've had sitting around for a while, so I tried something like that just now -- about 1:1:1:.5 gin/Campari/lemon/Rooh Afza. The Rooh Afza is a rosehip-screwpine syrup, very sweet, very strong -- it's still very pronounced here, and I need to play around with proportions more, and I might try lime instead of lemon. The gin practically disappears, and the Campari bitterness is very muted, to a level I associate with pink grapefruit.
But it's a good flavor combination, in any case.

However, I was in the mood for a Campari cocktail on Saturday, so I gave it a second chance, and found it delicious.
My only comment would be, I found the recipe in Harrington's book, with 3/4 ounce fresh lemon, a bit sharp. Perhaps I had a very sour lemon. In any case, Robert's formulation above, with 1/2 oz lemon, seems right on.

My current favorites. These aren't exactly "cocktails", but I usually like to keep it simple. :-} I figure that although they're pretty obvious, nobody's mentioned them yet...
Campari and Soda: club soda, or just since nice sparkling mineral water, ice, chilled Campari to taste.
Cynar: Ice cold, straight as a shot or on the rocks.
Fernet Branca: How isn't this good? Guess how I enjoy it..? You've got it. Soda, on the rocks, or neat in a well-chilled glass.
...oddly enough, although I usually do enjoy Unterberg and Jaegermeister, I prefer them in cooler weather. Not sure why. The same is true for me of various Chatreuse, or similar.
I'm editing because I forgot to mention an interesting and very herby/rooty spirit I encountered
in Bavaria: Baerwurz, I believe. I remember liking it very much ice cold.
Note: A good friend of mine has asked me to remember to mention that Baerwurz, like Chartreuse, or many spirits, does not refer to a single spirit produced by a single company but rather to a genre of spirits.
(I suspect, for example, that few German spirit-lovers would recognize what frequently passes in the US for "Schnapps" as schnapps. Just a guess.)

This is getting off topic for a thread about Campari cocktails, but... Chartreuse is not a "genre of spirits." Chartreuse is the proprietary name of the herbal spirits produced by the Carthusian monks at the monastery in Chartreuse. No one else may call their spirit "Chartreuse." They do produce three varieties of Chartreuse (Green, Yellow and Vieillissement Exceptionnellement Prolongé), but these are all of a piece and clearly variations on a theme by the same maker. I'd say it's similar, albeit with some differences, to Wild Turkey producing rye as well as bourbon at 80 and 101 proofs (the point being that "Wild Turkey" is not a genre of spirits).

My first time with Campari was 1972 in Greece. My family was on vacation there, and were in the hotel bar. A youngish American fellow who we'd become friendly with was drinking a Campari and soda with a slice of orange. I told him how good it looked, and he offered me a taste. Yikes, was that disgusting! How could something that looked so appealing taste so awful?? My parents just laughed. (BTW I was 14 at the time).
The first time I had Campari was when someone was mixing tall drinks with Campari and Pellegrino Aranciata Amara. I liked it from the get-go. (This drink isn't nearly as good with regular aranciata-- got to be amara.)
Fast forward to Columbus Day 2006, when my wife and kids and I are at Union Square Cafe (NYC) for lunch, and their cocktail of the day was Campari, Aranciata and lime. Mrs. Polford slurped down two in no time at all. Tess, I am guessing it was the regular Aranciata, because although they presented the little bottle, I really didn't notice that part, but the lime converted it to a bit more amara. I bought a bottle of Campari that day, and had to buy another bottle yesterday, that's how much we've been hammering that drink.
Today I noticed this thread, and made her a Romanza (top of thread). Add it to the rotation, it's a nice drink. Made myself an Aviation, my new go-to drink, but I think next up this evening is a Negroni or an Americano. I love this new hobby!

Lately I've been drinking a lot of Campari and tonic with a dash or two of Goldschlager -- which I'd picked up to dash into hot cider but tried with Campari on a whim. Even with just a dash, the cinnamon survives the Campari and really kind of seems to suit it, especially this time of year.

Trying the Old Pal right now and really like it; I'm surprised how much the bourbon comes through.

When I was in Italy I was near Venice in a little town called treviso and my friends introduced me to spritz! It made with campri, prosecco, and tonic water topped off with a meaty olive and orange slices. Delicious! i miss drinking it at night outside with my friends.

Vanesa R. Del Rey Announced as Artist on First Issue of 'Scarlet Witch'; David Aja on Covers
When Marvel first announced an ongoing Scarlet Witch series from writer James Robinson, there was a conspicuous lack of an artist attached. On the one hand, it was a bad sign; announcing books without artists tends to devalue the role of artists. On the other hand, it was also a good sign; it spoke to Marvel's efforts to put the right artists on the right books, and perhaps specifically to assign diverse talent to diverse books, like artist Natacha Bustos on Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur, and writer Jose Molina on the Santerians revival.
To that end, a lot of fans were hoping Wanda Maximoff's first solo series would not come from an all-male creative team. The good news is that those fans have got their wish, with Vanesa R. Del Rey now joining Robinson on the title. The bad news is that it's only for one issue.

Following in the well-heeled footsteps of Marion Cotillard and Rachel Weisz, Jessica Biel is the third person to wear a Christian Dior couture dress from Raf Simons's debut show. The future Mrs. Timberlake donned a pink strapless creation (with pockets!) at the west coast premiere of Total Recall. Biel paired her frock with kickass Tom Binns baubles, Louis Vuitton captoe heels, and a Jimmy Choo clutch. Naturally, we have thoughts.
We totally dig the ultra feminine silhouette of the dress and the metallic tip of Biel's heels, but we wouldn't have worn the earrings and necklace together. As much as we love statement jewelry, the baubles are a bit too much, especially when they're in close proximity to each other. Instead, Biel could've flaunted her décolletage by ditching the chunky pearl necklace (or giving it to us), or losing the earrings (again, we know of a great home) and letting the necklace shine. She also could have left that clutch at home — the dress has pockets for a reason!
Total Recall star Kate Beckinsale was also in attendance, but her Armani Privé dress missed the mark. The sculptural python-printed gown (at least we hope it's a print) was indeed dramatic, but also confusing and unflattering.
Other outfits that deserve a shoutout: Aisha Tyler's sleek black gown with a mock turtleneck and Sophia Bush's modern tuxedo outfit.

Paterson Drops Election Bid
New York, NY —
Gov. David Paterson will not run for election this year, but he insists he will serve out the remainder of his term in office.
The embattled governor, who faces allegations that he and the state police interfered with a domestic violence case against a longtime aide, announced Friday afternoon that he was withdrawing from the campaign. The announcement comes just days after Paterson formally kicked off his election bid with an event at Hofstra University.
"There are times in politics when you have to know not to strive for service but to step back. That moment has come for me," Paterson said at a Friday afternoon press conference.
Paterson said he would not resign. "There are 308 days left in my term. I will serve every one of them fighting for the people of New York."
Paterson's withdrawal leaves Attorney General Andrew Cuomo as the leading Democratic contender for the gubernatorial nomination. Cuomo has not announced his candidacy. "I will announce my plans at the appropriate time," he said in a statement released this afternoon.
Cuomo's office this week opened an investigation into whether Paterson and the state police made improper contact with a woman who made domestic abuse claims against David Johnson, a top Patterson aide.
At his press conference, Paterson insisted that he did not exert improper influence in the case. "I have never abused my office -- not now, not ever," he said.
The allegations surrounding Paterson's involvement in the Johnson case proved to be the death knell for a campaign plagued by a host of other problems. Paterson suffered from low approval ratings in the polls, difficulty raising campaign funds, and received little support from fellow Democrats.
Some Democrats say the governor will have to do more than end his campaign, and are calling for him to resign.
"We have a $4.1 billion budget deficit to grapple with in New York City and cannot make real progress until the state budget is resolved on time one month from now. In order for this to happen, we need Governor Paterson to step down now," New York City Comptroller John Liu said in a statement.
Before Paterson's announcement, State Sen. Bill Perkins said the governor should step down now. "He knows what he did, who he talked to," Perkins told WNYC's Brian Lehrer Show this morning. "He knows under whose order the state troopers contacted this woman. If the investigation turns out the way many suspect, his resignation is almost inevitable. If that is the case then it is in the best interests of the people of New York for him to cut bait now."

Sunrise, FL (Sports Network) - Marcel Goc netted the go-ahead goal on the power play in the third period, while Jacob Markstrom turned in a stellar performance between the pipes to lead the Florida Panthers to a 3-2 win over the New York Rangers from the BB&T Center.
Markstrom outdueled reigning Vezina Trophy recipient Henrik Lundqvist with a 36-save effort that enabled the Panthers to halt a six-game losing streak and prevent the Rangers from securing a postseason berth. Tomas Fleischmann added a goal and an assist to the victory, with Drew Shore contributing a key empty- net tally with 1:23 left to play.
Lundqvist stopped only 13-of-15 shots for New York, which came in having won three in a row that included a 6-1 rout of the Panthers last Thursday at Madison Square Garden.
Despite the loss, the Rangers still remain in control of the eighth and final playoff seed in the Eastern Conference after ninth-place Winnipeg fell to Washington on Tuesday. New York owns a one-point lead on the Jets with two games remaining to Winnipeg's one.
Taylor Pyatt and Derick Brassard each scored in the third period for the Rangers, with Brassard's coming with 32.9 seconds left.

Rick Adelman accepts deal to become Timberwolves' new coach
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
The search has finally ended.
Rick Adelman has accepted a deal to become the new coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to a league source, ending the two-month search to replace Kurt Rambis.
Adelman, 65, owns a 945-616 career record in 20 career seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers, Golden State Warriors, Sacramento Kings and Houston Rockets, including 12 consecutive winning seasons dating back to 1997. Adelman also owns a career record of 79-78 in the playoffs -- a stage the Timberwolves haven't reached since 2004.
Adelman initially said he planned to sit out next season, but he wound up meeting with Wolves' officials on Aug. 23 and again with owner Glen Taylor on Aug. 30. The Wolves also reportedly had strong interest in Don Nelson and Sam Mitchell.
According to Yahoo! Sports, Adelman hopes to bring his coaching staff from Houston last season to Minnesota.
And per the Star Tribune, the hiring of Adelman will "absolutely" affect Kevin Love's decision whether to sign a contract extension.

The simple mechanism allows exercising any suitable muscle where a small angle can be created to press it, for example the biceps (elbow flexion) or the hamstrings (knee flexion).[5]
As with most fitness products marketed to homes, advertisements often emphasized that the Thighmaster could be used while doing something else. The infomercials featured people watching television and exercising with the Thighmaster at the same time. It was mainly advertised in the 1990s by the actress Suzanne Somers.[6][7]
The Thighmaster was marketed by Joshua Reynolds, who also made a great deal of money with his version of the Mood ring. Reynolds is an heir to the fortune of R. J. Reynolds, founder of R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company.

High School Tennis
Northgate lineups sweep Whitewater
Northgate tennis teams never let Wednesday's elements off the court — namely plummeting temperatures and wind gusts of over 20 mph — play much of a role in a pair of shutout victories over Whitewater at home in Region 4-AAAAA play.
Both boys and girls lineups played through without seeing a third set, with neither the Vikings nor Lady Vikings allowing more than four games to an opponent.
Teams quickly return to the court today for a showdown with 4-AAAAA rival Starr's Mill at home.
Girls doubles teams dominated play against Whitewater with Northgate's No. 2 pairing of Lauren Handley and Sydney Wells earning a 6-0, 6-0 shutout win.
At the No. 1 position, Sarah Edmonds and Sarah Guilot teamed for a 6-2, 6-0 victory.
All three Lady Vikings singles players also won in straight sets. At the No. 1 position, Danielle Rankin won 6-4, 6-1 while respective No. 2 and No. 3 players Hayley Hasberger and Ally Chenowith earned 6-2, 6-2 and 6-2, 6-4 decisions.
The Vikings' No. 1 doubles team of Daniel Blocker and Alex Waldron led the way in a 5-0 victory over Whitewater's boys. The duo won easily 6-0, 6-2.
In singles matches, Larry Sloan held off his Wildcat opponent 6-4, 6-4 at the No. 1 position. Cole Chenowith won 6-4, 6-2 at No. 2 singles while Nate Taylor added a 6-4, 6-1 victory at the No. 3 position.
Northgate's other win came as a forfeit at No. 2 doubles.
In girls exhibition matches on Wednesday, Lauren Schexnayder won 8-0 in an 8-game pro-set.

Colin Farrell has come a long way from his bad boy days but that doesn't mean he's less interesting today because of it. On the contrary actually, as his interview with the latest issue of Details magazine can confirm.
The handsome star sat down for an interview with the mag to promote the star-studded comedy "Seven Psychopaths," which is already out in theaters now.
Among other things, he also talked about his excessive boozing of yore, the way he merely went through life without a purpose and satisfaction, his love life, his children and how his sons changed everything for him, finally telling him that it was time to grow up.
"The bottom line is I ended up miserable," Colin says of how much he used to drink.
"I'd done enough of a job of flagrantly abandoning myself in a very loud and public way that I began to fall apart, you know? There was a time when I needed to do three or four films at once. It was the best place for me to hide," the actor recalls.
Now that he's done drinking, he's also discovered that he has much more time for other things, like spending time with those people that really matter for him.
"Honestly. I've got eight hours a day now that I didn't have before, when I was drinking every day for 18 years," Colin says.
He compares his heavy drinking to putting an artificial wall between himself and the rest of the world: it did not help him feel less lonely as he'd hoped.
"They're not hedges so much as they are curtains. Hedges are natural, curtains are manmade. And they work until they don't," he says.
On the topic of loneliness, Farrell admits that he's not marriage material and even that there's a slight chance he's unable to commit to a serious relationship.
He hasn't lost hope yet that he will find someone willing to spend time with him and, when he does, he promises himself, he will shut his mouth and just act. "Love in action, man! Not love in [expletive]-ing words," he says with determination.
The full interview is here and, trust us, it's worth a read, especially if you're a fan.

I love this perfume. Every time I wear this, I get compliments from people inquiring about what perfume I have on. I will admit I am a Chanel junkie and adore Coco Chanel, so I may be a bit biased, but I just feel so luxurious whenever I wear this. I think it is just part of what the Chanel brand brings to its products. Even with that being said, I think anybody new to the Chanel brand will still love this scent. It's so wonderful and feminine, and a little goes a long way.

MmmmMmmmMmmm. I love this perfume in the edp, edt, and, pure oil form. This is like luxury in a bottle. You feel as if you're rich with maid servants and lots of men and they all beckon unto your voice. Your presence wont be left unknown, they follow every step behind you. It smells very expensive, sweet, fresh, yet feminine and the best thing for me it last all day. This is not a young girly fragrance unless you are mature enough to wear it. Its not for the faint-hearted, its for a woman who knows what she wants (a go getter, not easily persuaded, but is able to handle her own). You will feel like a queen that has conquered the world.

Mmm this perfume is so lovely. I first experienced CM when I was about 10, and my mum took me to London for holidays. We stayed at mums friends house, and she wore CM. There was a bottle of it perched up on her white bookcase. She smelled amazing every time she walked past. I decided to revisit CM 6 years later, and oh my. It's still amazingly beautiful. I didn't have a lot of money, so I went ahead and bought the 50mL of the EDT. It smelled lovely, but a lot lighter than the EDP. The staying power wasn't very good though, and I was very upset, as it cost me $130AUD. I got a sample of the EDP, and I prefer that over the EDT. I am planning on buying 100mL of the EDP tomorrow. It costs $234AUD but it's totally worth it! On my skin, CM slowly turns into a buttery, sophisticated masterpiece, and it lasts forever. This perfume will forever be a favourite of mine <3

I don't want to like this. I identify with Bois des Iles (though I don't own a full bottle) and for many years I wore no.19. Im earthy. Im rock n' roll. I'm a feminist. I teach yoga. My favourite sounds are Coltrane and Thelonious. I'm well educated. But this! This is sweet, and fruity, and all the twenty-somethings love it and it has that pouty princess Keira as its face and she is so not me and it may as well be more popular than no.5. I am NOT the catchment for this cash cow. But I went and bought it because I couldn't not. And I wore it- in EDP- and it seemed so gorgeous and lasted well on me with my only misgiving (apart from the many touted above) being that there was this moment when I put it on of fake nails on a shiny pink toffee blackboard that led me to believe it was in fact all those things I didn't want to be associated with. And so I sold it on eBay, to raise some new-season-frock-funds you see. But then when it sold, I realised that I had to use said funds to buy the bloody thing again because I missed it so!
I didn't re-buy the EDP, I bought the pure parfum. Just a tiny bottle so I could dab it on and maybe salvage some of my dignity while I head off down the street smelling like everybody else. This way I get all the benefit of this lovely stinky babe who is now a good friend of mine, but I don't subject everyone else to her as you would have noticed there are many who think she's a bit too flash. I have noticed that the parfum is, in the splash bottle, beautifully soft and even in the spray tester of the same concentration it lacks the fake fingernail assault and instead shoots me straight through to what coco mademoiselle really is- and now is where I lose the capacity to be articulate- yummy girl-woman wafty goodness.
Love the stuff and I will probably buy a bigger size when I run out, which I'm pretty sure to do soon.
(And Im still gonna get me some Bois des Iles pure parfum if I'm ever in Paris)

Chance Eu Tendre is my top chanel fav, this is close in 2nd. Can be kind of overly mature and musky at times, but if used lightly it's great and long lasting. Reminds of a tulip garden mixed with musky, rosey, spivey notes.

Honestly I never make reviews about products.. I had seen such amazing reviews for this perfume and being so stupid I just took their word for it and order this online. One of the stupidest things I've ever done. I understand we all have different taste in smells but to me this smells like an older lady. My sister told me I smelled like a grandma........lol I'm now using the flowerbomb that one is so sweet and girly. Way better than this

I knew this was a favourite on MUA so when I saw the tester bottle at the beauty boutique at Shoppers I just spritzed some of the EDT on my wrist and went about my shopping, and driving to different stores, running errands. I kept thinking, what is that god awful dryer sheet, bathroom deodorant, old fart smell invading my nostrils everywhere I go? I felt lightheaded and nauseated. It wasn't until I got home that I realized it was coming from me! From my wrist. With Chanel Mademoiselle on it. And nothing else. I'm sure for the right chemistry it would be amazing. But I'm about to get sick. I'm going to wash it off right now but decided to swing by MUA on my way to the bathroom. I'm no hater but this is the worst scent I've ever had on in my life.
UPDATE: I've washed my entire arms 4 times with different soaps, and it's still there as strong as ever - it keeps wafting into my nose and ruining my mood and making me sick. In sheer desperation I even tried soaking my arm in mouthwash! Then I cleaned them with rubbing alcohol - that seemed to make it worse. Whaa?? I can't get my favourite scents to last more than 30 minutes on me, and this one is clinging like a cheap dress! I now TOTALLY understand what people who have sensitivities to scents feel like - make it stop!!

On Monday, two Florida lawmakers introduced identical bills to legalize medical marijuana in the 2014 legislative session. Senators Joe Saunders and Jeff Clemens introduced the bills that would pre-empt medical marijuana legalization prior to a vote of the people on a constitutional amendment this November.
The amendment, and the newly introduced legislation, would specify tight state regulation for doctors to prescribe marijuana for treatment of conditions like cancer, HIV/AIDS, ALS and other severe afflictions.
Identically worded bills were introduced in both houses of the state legislature on Monday, offering greater ease of passage.
This is not the first time that medical marijuana legislation has been introduced by Florida lawmakers. This marks the fourth session where some form of medical marijuana legalization legislation has been introduced.
If the bills presented by Senators Saunders and Clemens fail in both the House and the Senate, there will still be the medical marijuana question on the November election ballot. Activists believe that has a strong chance of passing, as recent polls have shown over 80% of Florida voters approve of legalizing medical marijuana. The amendment needs 60% support in order to become law.

Headstones mark the final resting place for residents who have passed away. But the stones often do not meet cemetery regulations.
Before placing a monument, tree, shrub or a physical marker on graves, citizens are required to obtain permission from cemetery officials.
In the event a monument fails to comply with cemetery regulations, including size restrictions, the marker or stone will be removed at the expense of the next of kin or family survivors.
To eliminate potential problems, citizens are encouraged to check before purchasing a graveside marker.

You already use social media in your personal life to accomplish lots of important things – like staying in touch with old friends, stalking exes, and making sure that when you go to the gym, everyone and their mother hears about it. Let's face it – social media sites are a guilty pleasure. But for intuitive employers, they can be so much more. In fact, sites like Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn offer powerful resources to companies that would like to build a better workforce. Here are a few ways to use popular social media sites for sourcing:
Sourcing on LinkedIn
LinkedIn is geared towards working professionals, which is why it's the premier resource for social media sourcing. At LinkedIn, sourcers can review a potential candidate's work experience, read endorsements from other users and see what employers and colleagues have to say about the person's abilities. Search by job title or skills to browse profiles, or join industry-specific groups to identify experts in a certain field. When you follow competing companies, you'll even get updates about employee changes, promotions and terminations – and if you have information like that, you can time your recruiting moves to make a bigger impact.
Sourcing on Facebook
As of October, 2012, Facebook boasts one billion active users, and 81% of those users live outside the U.S. and Canada. What does that mean? When it comes to global sourcing, Facebook can't be beat. If you're looking to hire remote workers or to staff your Antarctica office, Facebook can help you do it. Search profiles for key terms, interact with groups or build an online fan base for your company and broadcast your job openings using The Resumator's easy-to-use, integrated social media features. By far one of the most popular social media sites, Facebook is a must-use resource for online sourcing.
Sourcing on Twitter
How many people use Twitter? According to TechCrunch, at least 170 million active users frequent the social media site, and a good portion of those users could be searching for jobs in your company's industry. To search for relevant profiles on Twitter, simply enter keywords like "sales manager" or "computer engineer." Research hashtags and use them when tweeting your job openings. Create a weekly chat schedule to help you interact with the most engaged and informed users. You'll soon see the huge impact that 140 little characters can have on your sourcing success.
Every day, new employers tap into the power of social media to give themselves a sourcing edge. They do so because it's cheap, effective and (gasp!) kind of fun. Plus, interacting on social media sites does more than just help you hire better employees. It also boosts your search engine rankings, your brand awareness and your visibility to investors, clients and customers. Think about it – when something as simple as a status update or tweet can do all that, why wouldn't you jump on board?
We covered the three most popular sourcing sites in this post, but we'd love to hear from you – what other social media sites do you use to reach your sourcing goals?

Genova Technologies
2008: 25 employees, one location, $10 million revenue.
2013: 150-plus employees, three locations, $30 million-plus revenue.
Just before the financial crisis hit in 2008, Genova Technologies in Cedar Rapids made a decision that would help shield it from the more dire effects of the downturn.
On top of building transportation software, the company shifted part of its focus to building software for major health care agencies. Essentially, an influx of enrollment in late-stage programs by the baby boomer generation would require a backbone to support the sectors quick growth.
We wanted to diversify away from just one market, and health care seemed to be one that would be expanding, CEO Dawn Ainger said. We got in the door just before the recession hit.
5 years after the financial crisis: Iowans' and Americans' lessons and struggles, in videos, stories and timelines
The strategy helped Genova grow at an unusual rate, considering the rest of the economy was diving. Genova avoided layoffs and actually grew from a company of about 25 employees to its current level of about 150. What part of that is luck and what is foresight, I dont know, Ainger said. The insatiable need for information faster and better is not going away.
Genova designs software that allows transportation vehicles like semitrailers or avionics systems to communicate with each other or people. For example, software that transmits a semi-trucks location to a monitor at a tracking station.
If it moves, and it needs to communicate, we know how to make those bits fly, Ainger said.
We asked Ainger about her experience with the recession and its fallout.
What was the toughest decision you had to make during the Great Recession?
The avionics portion of what we did with the Department of Defense took a nosedive. Fortunately, our market is transportation software so other parts of that industry started to take off. The toughest decision was deciding to keep sticking money away and keep from building too quickly when times were good. It was tempting to spend a little bit more, but I had to think that something was going to tank in time, so how can I keep the boat steady? Even as we funded our infrastructure to support our growth, we always talked about whether this is maintainable if one industry or another tanks.
What lessons have we learned or failed to learn as a result of the financial crisis?
I hope weve learned how important scruples are in any business, but especially in the financial sector. Having members of the financial sector play loose and free with their assets (or more accurately, their paper only assets) nearly brought our economy to its knees.
How did Genova make it through the lagging economy?
Genova has been in the fortunate position of having had healthy growth over the last five years. We have grown by more than 300 percent since that time. We had begun to diversify our market base before 2008, and that diversification (into health care) paid big dividends during this time.
How did the recession affect your industry, in general, and Genova, specifically?
Genova is in the business of supplying information to its customers when they need it. We are a custom software and business analytics firm. During this time, the need for information has increased, along with the need for that information faster. When government and industry leaders are facing a crisis, like the financial sector crash, their need for fast, accurate data increases. Therefore, our industry has grown over the last five years.

After layoff, spouses become carpet cleaning franchisees
Times were getting tough for the Boone family in the months after David lost his construction job in November 2008 and nothing materialized to replace it.
"We kept thinking 'Work will come. Work will come.' But when we started looking, we found dead end after dead end," said his wife, Heather. "Bills still needed to be paid and our unemployment was going to run out, so he was freaking out."
Their solution: Go into business for themselves as franchisees of Chem-Dry, the carpet and upholstery cleaning company owned since 2006 by The Home Depot.
"I had a part-time job cleaning a bank. My husband did carpet cleaning way back before we got married. We figured maybe we could open our own cleaning business," she said.
So the Boones did some research and determined their best prospects were with Chem-Dry, the company David had worked with before.
"So we applied," Heather said. "They interviewed us we interviewed them, really and it was a good fit. We really liked the family feel of it."
With financial startup assistance from David's father, who lives in Cottonwood Heights, the Tooele-based Boones landed a franchise and the rights to pursue cleaning jobs in Salt Lake and southern Davis counties from Bluffdale to Fruit Heights.
Heather said an $8,500 investment provided the Boones with carpet cleaning equipment (they had to come up with their own van to haul it around) and the training to do the job and get their business up and running.
"Starting it up all brand new was kind of scary," she said, "but they teach you how to get customers, how to present yourself, how to go to businesses, how to get the word out that you're in business."
Word-of-mouth is the best way to get rolling, so the Boones started close to home with family and friends.
"My very first customer was David's sister. She helped us a lot. The second was his mom and dad," Heather said. "We've branched out since then and gotten aunts and uncles, high school friends, people I've worked with in the past who referred customers to me."
And just lately, the Boones ventured into commercial cleaning, landing a job at a furniture company's big showroom in Sandy.
"We did it at night," she said, leaving their 4-year-old son, William, with a baby sitter. "David does the physical work and I help him. I enjoy working with my husband. It's a partnership."
This being the spring-cleaning season, business is starting to pick up for the Boones. Although "we're not nearly as busy as other franchises since we are brand new and trying to get our name out there," Heather said she has only one regret about taking the leap into small business ownership.
"I wish we had done this years ago," she said.
Meet the Boones
David, 33, grew up in Sandy and used to be a truck driver for a construction company until he lost his job in November 2008.
Heather, 31, was raised in Magna, has worked part-time cleaning and is mom to their 4-year-old William.
Today their Chem-Dry franchise pursues cleaning jobs in Salt Lake and southern Davis counties, from Bluffdale to Fruit Heights.

For The Best Faux Tan
- 1 of 5
DERMAdoctor KP Duty Body Scrub ($44)We've all heard that you need to exfoliate before getting a faux tan, but we never knew what product to use and when to use it. Shaving can cause streaking, Blafer says, so the first thing you should do is shave--or wax--then use a non-oily scrub like KP Duty to even out the surface of your skin. She suggests finishing up by using a dry wash cloth to scrub your skin one last time. "The friction between the dry wash cloth and your wet skin will help remove any remaining dead skin cells," Blafer says.
- 2 of 5
Fake Bake Passion Fruit Exfoliating Wipes ($31)If you're a habitual spray tanner or use a lotion with a self-tanner in it, you'll need to make sure you've gotten it all off before you get your next airbrushing. "Fake Bake's exfoliating wipes are awesome," Blafer says. "They're great for removing the last bit of spray tan before you spray again!"
- 3 of 5
St. Tropez Tan Optimizer Body Butter ($15)Once you've achieved the perfect airbrush tan, the key to keeping it is to pick the right moisturizer. Blafer likes this body butter because it's very hydrating, which helps the tan fade evenly. To prolong the life of your tan, she also says to go easy on the soap in the shower, especially the first few days, because it's drying and makes the tan come off faster. "Just wash the necessary parts and let the natural oils in your skin build up," Blafer says. "Also be sure to apply lotion right after you get out of the shower, while your pores are still open."
- 4 of 5
Jergens Natural Glow & Protect Daily Moisturizer ($9)Another way to prolong your tan is to give it a little boost by using a moisturizing lotion with a tanning kick. A classic like Jergens Natural Glow is an excellent option, but that's not the only one.

Splendid Strapless Cotton-Blend Jersey Maxi Dress ($110)As for what to wear to and from your airbrush tanning appointment? Let's just say this is not the time for anything tight, complicated, or overly strappy. Bras are to be avoided, if possible, and you should ideally look for something in a machine washable fabric. "You also want something long to protect chairs or car seats from the solution," Blafer says. "A dress with a wide elastic waistband is okay, but be careful of wearing anything too tight. This black convertible tube dress is great; I also have this dress too, which is so soft."

Scott Maine Rumors
Minor Moves: Hill, O'Sullivan, Sale, Daley, Gimenez, Thomas
Here are today's minor moves …
- The Tigers inked right-hander Shawn Hill to a minor league deal today, as James Wagner of the Toledo Blade reports on Twitter. Hill, 33, has seen mostly scattered MLB action since taking 28 starts for the Nationals over the 2007-08 seasons. He has a 4.87 ERA through 105 1/3 innings (4.7 K/9 against 2.2 BB/9) in the upper minors this year with the White Sox and Blue Jays organizations.
- The Phillies have outrighted Sean O'Sullivan to Triple-A, according to the International League transactions page. The righty accepted a previous outright assignment earlier this year, but will once again have the right to elect free agency instead.
- Rays prospect Josh Sale has been hit with a 50-game suspension for recreational drug use, MLB announced today. This is hardly the first brush with trouble for the 23-year-old former first-round pick, who came into the 2013 season rated Tampa's 24th-best prospect by Baseball America. After a previous drug-related suspension, Sale missed all of last year when the team banned him for inappropriate conduct. He had slashed .238/.313/.344 over 361 plate appearances on the year at the High-A level.
- After reporting earlier today that Matt Daley has accepted an outright assignment from the Yankees, MLB Daily Dish's Chris Cotillo tweets that Daley has actually been optioned by the club. The righty still occupies a 40-man spot.
- Catcher Chris Gimenez has accepted an outright assignment from the Rangers rather than electing free agency, tweets John Blake, the club's executive VP of communications. The 31-year-old was designated for assignment five days ago, and apparently has not found a better opportunity with another organization.
- The Phillies have released outfielder Clete Thomas, Cotillo tweets. The 30-year-old has seen 794 MLB plate appearances in parts of four seasons, but had not been elevated by Philadelphia this season. Over 226 minor league plate appearances, he carries a .247/.345/.335 slash.
Earlier Updates
Baseball America's Matt Eddy has posted his weekly look at minor league transactions from around the league from the past seven days. We'll highlight a couple of the (relatively) notable names that were missed in the past week:
- Eddy reports that the Cardinals have released southpaw Pedro Feliciano from his minor league deal. The 37-year-old, once an excellent setup man with the Mets, pitched to a 5.57 ERA with 8.1 K/9 and 3.4 BB/9 in 21 frames with Triple-A Memphis this season.
- The Reds have released left-hander Scott Maine, Eddy reports. The former Cub was inked to a minor league deal in June after pitching well for the independent Atlantic League's Bridgeport Bluefish, but he posted a 6.10 ERA in 10 1/3 innings with the Reds organization.
- The Athletics have released first baseman/third baseman B.A. Vollmuth, tweets Eddy. Vollmuth, a third-rounder as recently as 2011, batted just .207/.278/.341 this season at Class A Beloit. The 24-year-old has yet to move above the Class-A Advanced level and a has a .702 OPS in his pro career.

Minor Moves: Collier, Loe, Pineiro, Maine
Here are today's minor league transactions from around baseball, with the newest moves at the top of the post…
- Phillies outfielder Zach Collier cleared waivers and was outrighted to Double-A, the team announced. The Phils designated Collier for assignment earlier this week. Collier, picked 34th overall in 2008, has a .240/.312/.349 slash line over 2084 career minor league plate appearances.
- The Braves released righty Kameron Loe, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (via Twitter). Loe posted an 8.83 ERA in 17 1/3 relief innings with Triple-A Gwinnett after signing a minor league deal with the Braves last month. This is Loe's third change of teams in 2014, as he already opted out of a minor league deal with the Giants in March and was released by the Royals in May.
- The Angels released right-hander Joel Pineiro, Chris Cotillo of MLB Daily Dish reports (Twitter link). Pineiro struggled to a 7.48 ERA over four Triple-A starts after signing a minor league deal with the Halos earlier this month. Pineiro was attempting a comeback after missing most of 2012 and all of 2013 recovering from shoulder problems, and the Angels were his second stop after already being released by the Cubs earlier this season.
- The Reds have signed left-hander Scott Maine to a minor league deal and assigned him to Double-A. Maine had been pitching for the Bridgeport Bluefish of the independent Atlantic League, and the transaction was announced via Bridgeport's team website. The southpaw had a 4.95 ERA, 10.4 K/9 and a 5.75 K/BB rate in 20 innings for the Bluefish this season, with all but one of his 19 appearances coming out of the bullpen. Maine posted a 5.59 ERA and 48 strikeouts over 46 2/3 IP with the Cubs and Indians from 2010-12, though he was plagued by both the long ball (1.5 HR/9) and walks (4.8 BB/9) over his brief stint in the bigs. Maine spent 2013 pitching in the Marlins' farm system.

Quick Hits: Phils, O'Flaherty, Maine, Guerrier, Cotts
Somewhat remarkably, both of the Phillies' last two GMs and last two managers are still employed by the organization, observes Justin Klugh of Philly.com. Meanwhile, the club only recently hired an analytical employee, and it remains unclear how much pull that position holds. While keeping the old guard around is a nice touch, says Klugh, the club should make a stronger commitment to progress. Here are more notes from around the league:
- There is now only a "slim chance" that southpaw reliever Eric O'Flaherty will return to the Braves, reports Mark Bowman of MLB.com. The issue, Bowman indicates, is that Atlanta is not as interested in working O'Flaherty into their plans as other clubs. Specifically, Bowman names the Orioles as a contender for the lefty.
- The Braves may have found yet another diamond in the rough with minor league free agent signees Luis Vasquez and Lay Batista, writes Bill Ballew of Baseball America. "We identified Vasquez and Batista as potential high-octane arms who could contribute in Atlanta as soon as 2014," said assistant GM John Coppolella.
- Lefty Scott Maine is reportedly throwing well in Puerto Rico and beginning to draw interest from clubs, reports MLBTR's Zach Links (via Twitter). He could sign with a club as soon as this week, Links adds. Maine has a 5.59 career ERA in 46 2/3 big league innings. He spent time in the Marlins' system last year.
- Another right-handed reliever, Matt Guerrier, is expected to audition for MLB clubs in the next ten days or so, Links further tweets. Darren Wolfson of 1500 ESPN recently reported that the Twins could be interested in a reunion.
- The $2.2MM contract agreed upon yesterday between the Rangers and reliever Neal Cotts is fully guaranteed, Links tweets. As Links observes, Cotts' representatives at Pro Star Management did well to get their client a guarantee given his injury history.

Cox, Hernandez, Maine Clear Waivers
WEDNESDAY: Cox, Hernandez and Maine have all cleared waivers, writes Joe Frisaro of MLB.com. Reed, on the other hand, was claimed by the Tigers and optioned to Triple-A Toledo earlier today.
SUNDAY: The Marlins have designated Zack Cox, Gorkys Hernandez, Scott Maine, and Evan Reed for assignment, according to Juan C. Rodriguez of the Sun-Sentinel (on Twitter). In a related move, Jose Fernandez will make the club's Opening Day roster and start next Sunday vs. the Mets, tweets Joe Capozzi of The Palm Beach Post.
Fernandez, 20, will make the leap directly from High-A ball to the majors to start the 2013 season. While clubs often delay the debuts of their most promising prospects, the Marlins will put Fernandez on the major league roster despite not being in a position to contend. In 25 Single-A and Advanced-A games last year, the right-hander posted a 1.75 ERA with 10.6 K/9 and 2.4 BB/9.
We heard last week that the Marlins were exploring a trade for the out-of-options Hernandez, but it appears that they were unable to find a deal. The 25-year-old didn't do much in his 173-plate appearance big league debut with the Pirates and Marlins last season. In Triple-A, he hit .257/.353/.346 in 281 Triple-A plate appearances, playing mostly left field.
The Marlins acquired Cox last July from the Cardinals in exchange for Edward Mujica. In 108 games for the Cards' Triple-A affiliate and the Marlins' Double-A affiliate, the 25-year-old hit .254 /.301/.409 with ten homers.
Maine, 28, made 30 relief appearances for the Indians and Cubs in 2012, posting a 6.08 ERA with 10.8 K/9 and 5.1 BB/9. Reed, 27, split time between the Marlins' Double-A and Triple-A affiliates last season, posting a 4.68 ERA with 9.4 K/9 and 3.6 BB/9.

Precisely balanced nutrition for a visible difference for dogs who prefer a smaller kibble

Hill's® Science Diet® Adult Advanced Fitness Small Bites 126 126
My Dog & I Highly Recommend This Product My Boston terrier means the world to me. I only want the best for him & that is why I use Hill's Science Diet. I like that it consists of high-quality natural ingredients, antioxidant multivitamins and minerals, and amino acids. Everyone who meets my dog instantly falls in love with him and many think he is still a puppy even though he is 5 years-old because he is so energetic and playful, has beautiful teeth, healthy skin, and a shiny coat. This is attributed to his healthy diet and lots of TLC. My dog loves the taste and prefers the smaller kibble because it is easier for him to chew and digest. I love it because it has many great features and is good for him. I am very pleased with and thank Hill's Science Diet! October 3, 2013
improved dog's coat and health When we adopted our dog he was thin, not very active and had a thin coat with bald patches. We were given a small bag with store brand food for him to eat. We knew we wanted to change him over to the Advanced Fitness Small Bites so we mixed it in with the food he had been receiving. The dog wouldn't eat his old food; he would spit it out and only eat the Advanced Fitness Small Bites. After only a month there was a marked improvement in not only his activity but his coat as well. We now have an active dog with a thick, healthy coat without any bald patches. September 8, 2013
Great Dog Food I own a miniature pincher and a shitzu. They are one and two years old and have ate Science Diet since we brought them home. They absolutely love it. They eat all their food every time they are fed. I especially love it because they stay in great health because of it. They have extremely healthy coats of fur and they are very active. I have and I would highly recommended this product to anyone with dogs not only because of the great benefits for the dogs but also because it is reasonably priced as well. July 1, 2013
My Dogs Love it! I tired may other brads including expensive brands, this has been the only brand my foods enjoy and have no problems disgusting etc. i get puppy for my puppies and adult June 30, 2015
Great product This is the only dog food (Adult small bites) my dog will eat. At times, we run out and have to by a different brand to tie her over until we can get more of your brand and it doesn't go over to well. Thanks for making such wonderful products. May 27, 2015
Hills is a great product I love Hills and I stand by their product. They seem to actually care what we feed our pets and put alot of time and effort into making a great food for them. I will always recommend them to anyone!! May 19, 2015
My dogs love this product We have 2 Pitt Bulls and they have been on science diet food since they were puppy's their coats are shinny and beautiful. They also love the science diet dog treats.... December 7, 2014
Great Product! My dog ellie was a rescue, and wet have tried to give her the best life we can. That has been possible with the team at hills pet. They have formulated this great food and my dog loves it wonderfully! I recommend it to anybody! November 5, 2014
This product has many great features; My 3 Labs love this food and has thrived very well since being on it. I was hesitant after all I have gone through with the other foods I have tried before hand. My Vet highly recommends this brand for them. They have filled out, coats are shiny, overall health is better. They never get sick like they did on the more expensive brands that were suppose to be healthy for them. November 1, 2014
Highly Recommended We rescued our dog (English shepherd mix) twelve years ago. He was about a year old then, and a very picky eater. Small bites was the only food we could get him to eat. It worked like a charm, though.The groomer would always comment about his beautiful, black coat. He rarely ever got sick. We have been very pleased with the Science Diet brand. He likes the gourmet chicken flavor wet which we sometimes put a little wet on top to entice him to eat. I truly believe we have avoided many problems simply by feeding him nutritious food. Also, the vet commented on how good his teeth look, just another confirmation to me that he has been eating well all these years. Only recently are we looking into switching him to the senior recipe. October 26, 2014
Great product My corgi/red heeler mix loves the small bites. She can wait for mealtime. Great product. I love the coupons too.!!!! October 21, 2014

Too much grain I tried to get product info from Hills regarding the proportion of grain used in their advanced fitness small bites. I am trying to get my dog on a lower grain diet. Hills was not forthcoming with the information, so I can only assume that the proportion of grain is fairly high. September 11, 2014

Small bites perfect size for older dogs Coat is healthier, less waste than with a cheap dog food since the dog is absorbing all the good stuff. Science diet products is all we use at our house for dogs and cats. August 19, 2014
this product keeps my dogs fit and healthy I will always trust Science Diet dog food for my dogs nutrition and we'll being. August 3, 2014
My dog loves the canned food. This dog food was recommend by a vet that I was going to because its the only one that she could really prove that was tested on dogs. My dog has a collapsing trachea so I'm very concerned about what he is eating. I keep track of the ingredients and try to pick what one I think is best as well. July 17, 2014
Have used this product for 4 of our dogs over a 20 year period. I am pleased with this product although I certainly wish for more coupons. It was recommended to us more than 20 years ago by a vet and we have continued to us it for 2 rotts and now 2 aussies. We also have a 4 month old puppy at this time who is getting small bites puppy. Even though you have expanded since we first began using we are still please with the health and elimination of our dogs. They never have digestive problems and we recommend it. Our son has started his two puppies on science diet as well. July 7, 2014
My dog really enjoys his Science Diet. My dog always enjoys his science diet! He eats it as soon as we put his dish down. July 7, 2014
Great food my dogs love I have raised my dogs on science diet for years. I had a Yorkie mix that lived to be 17 on it and currently have his daughter who is 13. June 12, 2014

Though it's not quite enough to draw committed iPhone or Android owners, the BlackBerry Z10's modern design and features give BlackBerry fans what they've hungered for.
Harrods is selling the Blackberry Z10 Porsche Edition for more than 1,000 pounds.
Porsche Design has wrapped the BlackBerry Z10 in stainless steel and leather. It's posh, but it'll set you back a pretty penny.
BlackBerry has slashed production of the Z10 and Q10 by half because of disappointing BB10 sales, according to experts.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — Western Kentucky University safety Jonathan Dowling was selected by the Oakland Raiders in the seventh round with the 247th overall pick on Saturday at the 2014 National Football League Draft, held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City.
Along with Andrew Jackson's earlier selection, the Hilltoppers now have a pair of draftees for the first time since the 2002 NFL Draft. That year, Joseph Jefferson was selected by the Colts and Mel Mitchell went to New Orleans. WKU has had multiple draftees also in 1990, 1975, 1974, 1971 and 1965.
A two-time All-Sun Belt First Team performer, Dowling led the nation in forced fumbles in 2013 with six while also breaking up seven passes and tallying three interceptions. Over the past two seasons, Dowling tallied 135 tackles (95 solo) with 23 passes defended (nine interceptions) and eight forced fumbles. He started 23 games for the Hilltoppers over his two-year career.
Against Kentucky in 2012, Dowling intercepted quarterback Max Smith three times, the most by any Hilltopper in a single game since 1978 and tied for the most in the nation that season. At the NFL Combine, Dowling ran the fifth fastest 40-yard dash (4.52) and 3-cone drill (7.04) of any safety in Indianapolis while his time on the 60-yard shuttle (11.52) was second among safeties.
Dowling becomes WKU's 30th draftee all-time and the first ever to go to the Raiders franchise.
