New technology could fuel some appealing new ad units.
Over the last few months, the majority of the industry editorials I've read focused on the general lack of news and new developments in the online advertising industry. They all seemed to suggest marketers are tired of hearing about pop-ups, contextual advertising, and, yes, even paid search.
There may be hope for bored online media planners and buyers yet. A number of companies are working to add some life to the somewhat stagnant pool of media offerings from which we currently draw our ad placements. They're developing technology that could fuel the creation of some pretty appealing new ad units.
The concepts on the drawing board may have what it takes to become the next Eyeblaster Wallpaper Ad or Unicast Full-Screen Superstitial. While we wait to discover their fate, let's take a look at what two such parties are offering. What they have in common may just surprise you.
NetKontent's VideoNewsletters
In my two-part series on advertising in e-newsletters, I talked about various qualities buyers should look for when making a buy. Also be aware of the ad formats available in each newsletter offering. In addition to ensuring prospective newsletters aren't overloaded with ads (as with Web pages, clutter reduces the ads' effectiveness), buyers should choose newsletters featuring the ad format that best meets their budget and needs, such as skyscrapers, text link placements, or content-integrated advertising.
Buyers may soon seek out video ads, a placement that displays a streaming video clip similar to a short TV or radio ad. NetKontent Digital Media currently offers its technology to e-newsletter publishers for use in enhancing newsletter content and for advertising purposes.
According to Paul Racko, CEO of NetKontent, his company creates VideoNewsletters "from the ground up, so [newsletter publishers] can incorporate anything that a client requires: video, Flash buttons/banners, static graphics, text columns, Web links, dynamic content (ASP/PHP/XML), etc." This includes ad placements, which can be customized to meet a newsletter advertiser's needs.
With a placement like this to work with, buyers may soon transfer their clients' TV commercials to e-newsletter placements. Clients will reach an even broader audience and maintain ad message and brand consistency, online and off-.
This technology is so enticing because the user can control video views, as opposed to being subjected to an infinite advertising loop. Though animated banners can be effective online, they can annoy readers who want to concentrate on the content without peripheral vision diversions. User-initiated video ads eliminate this annoyance, thus enhancing the user experience.
ICglobal's eBOARDads
ICglobal's eBOARDads are similar, though the company focuses on Web pages as opposed to e-newsletters. These banner-style placements host static and animated ads, along with other options -- "fun extras," such as printable product coupons. The ads also support video footage in what the company calls "dot-spots" (ironically boasting the same name as the drive-to-Web TV ads I mentioned in a previous column). The spots can be used to display commercial-style ads as well as video presentations in multiple languages. Any incorporated video footage can also be selected by users to view at their leisure.
The banners themselves are reminiscent of trivision billboards -- shared placards that rotate every few seconds to display another advertiser's message. Each eBOARDad can accommodate up to 10 advertisers or messages (a capability that might prove useful for companies wishing to promote an entire product line). Wayne Richard, ICglobal's president and CEO, explains each ad "rotation" is measured as an impression or page view. His company tracks user response internally and can report on how site visitors interact with each ad.
This particular ad unit has already been employed by Indy race car driver Greg Ray as a way to give his sponsors some additional exposure on his site. ICglobal just completed beta testing on the system, but if Richard has his way, these ads will be popping up for purchase on ad-supported Web properties soon.
This isn't the first time video and the Internet have merged. E-mercials, often displaying footage from advertisers' TV ads, are now a dime a dozen online. Television ads are being employed by advertisers to drive traffic to the Web. Makes you wonder just where the relationship between these two media will end.

Friday April 5, 2013Faehn Has Gators Gymnastics Program Built to Last
Rhonda Faehn's first recruiting class helped UF win the 2007 SEC title. Since then, UF added 2010, 2012 & 2013 SEC wins.
Rhonda Faehn's first recruiting class helped UF win the 2007 SEC title. Since then, UF added 2010, 2012 & 2013 SEC wins.

Here being the start of another NCAA postseason and the Gators in the conversation once more as a potential national champion.
The Gators gymnastics program and success are old friends. If the host Gators advance out of the Gainesville Regional on Saturday, it will be their 31st trip to the NCAA Championships in the event's 32 years.
The only time they failed to do so was in 2000.
In some of those years, the Gators were good but not great, a long shot to win the program's first title. Other years they were really good but not good enough. And then last year they were better than they have ever been, narrowly missing a national championship by the oh-so-slim margin of 0.075 to Alabama.
When Faehn was hired in May 2002, the program had slipped under former coach Judi Markell. In the four seasons after Florida finished national runner-up in 1998, the Gators were only 56-46 from 1999-2002.
When Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley hired Faehn, the goal was to remake the program into one that could compete regularly for SEC titles the way it did in the 1980s. In Faehn's first season the Gators went 27-5 and beat national powers Alabama and Utah.
As the program's record improved, so did interest. In Faehn's first season the Gators averaged 2,791 fans at the O'Connell Center. That total has more than doubled during Faehn's 11-year tenure.
In women's gymnastics, if you can win SEC titles, you can win national titles. Two SEC programs -- Alabama and Georgia -- are part of the Big Four along with UCLA and Utah as the only schools to win a national title since the NCAA started governing the sport's national championship in 1982.
Florida continues to knock on the door, each year a little louder than before.
The rebuilding of the program didn't happen overnight or nearly as fast as it took for the team's new practice facility to be built after last season. This project required convincing recruits to buy into the programs vision.
I look at it kind of in stages, Faehn said. My first three or four years here, it was just a matter of really trying to recruit the athletes who were going to have that right mindset. At that point we had to prove ourselves. They came in and they wanted to put Florida on the map. That was their goal and along with our goal.
That first stage was a matter of getting people in the country to wake up and go, hey, they are actually pretty good, they are contenders, they could be in a Super Six. And then with the strength of recruiting, it kind of gradually grew from there.
The influx of new talent began with gymnasts such as Samantha Lutz, Corey Hartung, Breanne King, Katie Rue and Savannah Evans, a group that slowly helped Faehn build the Gators back into an SEC title contender.
The Gators won their first SEC title in 18 years in 2007 as Faehn won National Coach of the Year honors. They won another league title in 2010 and two weeks ago in Little Rock, Ark., the Gators captured their first back-to-back SEC crowns in 28 years.
The Gators enter the postseason as the nation's top-ranked team and the only team in the country to post three scores of 198 (out of a possible 200) or higher this season. The talent pipeline is wide open with Florida owning the top recruiting class for four consecutive years in the view of CollegeGymFans.com, a service that follows gymnastics recruiting year-round.
The program added Kytra Hunter in 2012, and all she did was become the first UF gymnast to win the NCAA's all-around national title. The Gators added 2009 World Champion Bridget Sloan this season and Sloan delivered big, sharing the SEC all-around title with LSU's Rheagen Courville two weeks ago.
When Faehn fills out her lineup, she has seniors Marissa King (2011 NCAA vault champion) and Ashanée Dickerson (67 career wins) as the veterans of a group that is deeper than any of her previous teams.
They know they have the talent to capture that first national title. It's all about performing at this stage. The top two teams in Saturday's Gainesville Regional -- Minnesota, Bridgeport, Auburn, Pittsburgh and Maryland join Florida -- advance to the NCAA Championships in Los Angeles later this month.
"Were going to stay positive,'' Hunter said. "We do expect to be in those top two teams but we dont want to get cocky about it. We just want to do our usual prep and compete. When we go into NCAAs, were not going to be focusing on [other teams]. We are going to be focusing on what we need to do. Thats the only way we can win.
Sophomore Kiersten Wang likes the team's demeanor heading into the regional meet after coming so close to a national title last year.
The fun factor is high, Wang said.
"Everyone knows subconsciously that it's crunch time,'' she said. "You cant have that added pressure of, oh my gosh, its regionals, you have to do good. Its just another day in the gym, another practice. Going into regionals we know that we can do our best floor routines, we can hit our best beam routines."
Faehn's message to her team is the same as it was all season: One step at a time.
That was the way she rebuilt the program and it's the way she knows the Gators must approach the postseason to accomplish their ultimate goal, which is to add a national title trophy to that shiny new practice studio.
"In the last few years when we were knocking on the door and almost wining, it has gone through stages,'' Faehn said. "It just comes down to hard work and great character and tough minds. All year long I felt like anyone that we asked to step up in the lineup can go out and hit a great routine and get a great score.
"That's nice to know."

Part of John Lewis in Exeter evacuated after pipe bursts on opening day
Posted: October 12, 2012|
A section of Exeter's new John Lewis store was evacuated today after a burst pipe flooded a section of the store.
Customers were evacuated from the lower ground floor and the top floor after the pipe burst at lunchtime.
The incident occurred just hours after the store officially opened at 9am this morning.
Our reporter Rich Booth was live at the scene and said the top floor and lower ground floor were both out of action to customers.

Store Manager Kate Connock confirmed the bottom floor and top floor, including the café and some toilets were closed due to the burst pipe. She blamed over-usage for the incident.
White pieces of A4 paper were used to cover the lower ground floor and floor 4 on the store's layout signs.
By 4pm, the bottom floor, top floor and toilet facilities were reopen. The cafe was open but was not serving food.
A section of the bottom floor remained cordoned off while members of staff frantically used mops and buckets to clear some of the water.
As well as the burst water pipe, the ground floor to first floor escalator stopped working. A team are still trying to fix it, although customers are still able to walk up it.
At this stage it is not known how much damage the flooding has caused to the new five-floor superstore.
People who were caught up in the drama started posting news of the incident on Twitter:
Max Rawlings @maxirawlings123 tweeted: "So the john lewis restraunt is now closed because there is no water, that's because its all coming from the roof downstairs!!!"
Josh Luxon @JoshLuxon said: "The John Lewis restaurant is shut because there's no water.. that's because its all pouring out of the ceiling downstairs."
The incident comes on the day of the official grand opening of the store.
Around 200 people stormed the entrance as the ribbon was cut and the doors swung open at 9am.
Throughout the day, shoppers have poured into the store desperate to get their first glimpse of Exeter's newest and biggest store.
Despite the burst pipe and subsequent flooding, the remainder of the store remains open to the public.

Sea, Sky, and Travel- Moments Etched in Image by Jan Maizler
Sea, Sky, and Travel – Moments Etched in Image
Jan Maizler
Though photos got their start for me as support for content in articles and books, they've evolved into recording and journaling my passion for travel. Some of the destinations appearing here are St. Maarten, Miami, Alaska, Barbados, Belize, The Yucatan, Sanibel, Flamingo, Sarasota, Curacao, the Florida Keys, Israel, Greece, Louisiana, Italy, and Argentina. When photos are for my amusement instead of commercial requirements, I have no shame breaking all the rules. Focus and camera shake might be tossed to the wind, as will noise and graininess. Sometimes I saturate and boost to diabetic levels. My depth of field approaches are not consistent. I do think photos should be special units of emotions (both good and bad) and cherished memories as well as the traditional representational approach. Sometimes, it's best not to just think out of the box- it's best to leave that encumbrance entirely. More can be found at www.flatsfishingonline.com.
Middle Keys Trip – May 2013
Just returned from our annual spring trip to the keys. As usual, we spent hours in the shallow water trying to convince tarpon to eat our flies. I've got an elevated respect for guys like Honson and Collin and the Florida guides and recreational anglers who are feeding these fish on a regular basis…this is not an easy game. We endured countless rejected shots from ocean swimmers, but it is worth the price of admission to watch them stream by the boat in clear water. Not to mention, I feel like we are learning a little more about these awesome fish with every failed attempt…which is really what it is all about. Fortunately, there's always a tarpon around willing to eat an artificial lure or a live mullet at a bridge…allowing us visitors a chance to put some fish in the air before they make it up to the Carolinas. Looking forward to next time.
Expedition along side the Tarpon Fishing Legend.
Silver in the Fall
I made a decision earlier this year to take time off from guiding starting this Fall. I set forth to rediscover the feeling of being the dude on the bow of the skiff facing a great technical fishery right at my doorstep. Of coarse, this can only be possible with an alternative source of income as I am no trustafarian. This past summer was all all about calm windless days, waving flags, and lots of copper. The days spent on the water this Fall amongst friends was set in the Everglades and upper end of the Florida Keys, primarily focusing on silver-clad gamefish.
The shameless plug this time goes to Maverick Boat Company. My first ride in a new Mirage 18 HPX-V was back in 2009 and from there-on, I knew this was to be my next skiff. I sold my 17 Mirage HPX-V shortly after that demo ride and have been fishing in my 18 HPX-V for the last couple of years. For my style of fishing, the 18 Mirage was just the work horse technical fishing platform I needed. A Mercury 115 Optimax ProXs found it's way on my transom this past year, replacing the 90 horsepower Yamaha I had originally hung on the skiff. This set-up is perfect, achieving fuel efficient 40mph cruise speeds and top speeds in the low to mid 50s. The extra 6lbs on the transom was negligible taking into account the extra speed gained from the motor swap. Recent fishing trips and tournament days have really pushed the limits of this great skiff… traveling over 100 miles a day, covering lots of water, getting there at just the right tide, and remaining stealthy once arriving at the stalking grounds. Kudos to Maverick as all performance expectations were exceeded. It is almost time for a new skiff soon and I may actually have an itch for something a little bit different. Though the idea a new skiff is tempting, it is difficult to not to fish another season out of my 18 Mirage. I guess time will tell…
Redneck Roadtrip – Florida Keys Tarpon
Took a raodtrip down to the middle keys last week with a couple of buds to chase the silver king. It became apparent that all three of us have a certifiable obsession with this fish that should probably be addressed by a professional. We were really hoping that we would luck up on the worm hatch and we were rewarded with a couple of nights of worm-slurping goodness (thanks Derek Rust for the heads up). Seeing hundreds of tarpon rolling and eating worms all around your boat is an unblievable experience. However, the fish become more challenging to catch during the worm hatch than we had previously thought. The live bait bite pretty much shut down on the hatch and even though we were getting hundreds of shots, we weren't getting much response from our worm flies. So leave it to some rednecks from SC to deploy the electric chicken jerk bait because it "sorta looks like a worm". We hadn't seen anyone hook-up all night at the bridge, but within 5mins of dropping an exude funky chicken behind the boat, we had a nice fish on. For the two nights during the hatch, we did a number on the big tarpon and went through all of our electric chicken baits – who would have thought that dangling a redfish bait behind the boat would put so many stubborn fish in the air.
Was able to stop and stay in Oak Hill, FL for a couple of nights on the way home to fish the Lagoon and see my friend Eddie. We got on a really great trout bite and got to do a little bit of redfishing.
I'm thinking Blake should rock this mustache full time – he grew it for the week of tarpon fishing and said it was his lucky poon-stache – hahaha.
Thanks to Honson, Derek, and Eddie for helping to make sure our fishing was productive.

The last few weeks to end the summer and start this Fall…
FINALLY… we had a taste of some slightly cooler air and light NE breezes last weekend. The slow transition from summer to fall has been evident in nature. The way the fish behave, the feel of the air, the lack of hot women prancing around at the boat ramp in Miami, my being able to stay out longer during a day of fishing, and my willingness to spend the extra 15 minutes outside cleaning the boat meticulously after a day on the water. I've spent a few days in the past couple of months pre-fishing for the Herman Lucerne Tournament but it seems that the last couple of days spent pre-fishing would be the ones that matter most with the changing conditions. Practice days for tournaments such as these can be harsh so I had to take some "me" time to do what I really wanted to do this time of year… chase after bonefish, permit, and tarpon.
We had good success on our practice days fo the Hreman Lucerne Backcountry Memorial fishing tournament. The challenge is to catch 7 species within the Everglades National Park in 2 days… redfish, bonefish, tarpon, black drum, seatrout, snapper, and snook. Though it is a difficult format, if our last 2 practice days will give us any merit, then I will feel confident. Jeremy and I will have to mix in blind casting, sight fishing, trolling motors, poling, fly fishing, plug fishing, jig fishing, and just about every style of fishing you can do in the glade's to meet what nature throws at us these next couple of days. The good news is, my Maverick 18 HPX-V skiff is set up to do it all. I'm taking a day off to rest tomorrow before the weekend of hardcore fishing begins. Wish me luck and I wish you all good fishing this next weekend…
Thick Skin…
Thankfully, it has been a warm end of winter. All the signs point to great potential this next season. Spring is almost upon us and th evidence is in the air. We had a taste of what's to come recently and I am confident that this will be another epic season in the opaque waters of the Florida Keys. Hues of brown and gold are soon to be replaced with blues and silvers… dark water amber water with clear torquoise seas…
If the thought if this is not enough to give your skin goose bumps, perhaps these recent images some of nature's iron clad skin will…
Mirage in the Keys… SKIFF PORN, Part 1!!!!
I spent this last weekend hanging out in the Keys at the Alderman's. It's always a chill time in the Keys.. fresh seafood, a little bonefishing, cold beer, and a very relaxed atmostphere. My buddy Jeremy and I decided to put together a little poker run/mini-shoot to an island in the middle of Florida Bay one afternoon. With 3 Maverick Mirages (two 18 HPX-Vs and a 17 HPX-V) and Juanki's "Lake and Spray", we headed out and shot a few cool photos on the water. So within this chilled out weekend, we did manage to sneak out for 3 early hours of some slightly serious business… bonefishing!!! They were there…. they ate shrimp… they ran like hell when they felt the pinch… and your sun glove smelled like hell after you released one.
Between the photoshoot, giant stone crab claws for dinner, bonefish wreslting, and being amongst great company… the weekend was as always… incredible!!! Enjoy some skiff porn….
Stay tuned… more to come shortly!!!
Muddy Fall fishing in South FL.
Fall has definitely set in, followed by cooling temperatures, lobster sized live shrimp in the baitwell, blue bird skies, and lots of muddy minded fish. Redfish in Flamingo are swimming on the mud in the afternoon heat and hanging off the deep end of mud banks on cool mornings. Bonefish on the other side of this little world in Islamorada are mudding their tails off, fattening up for the winter. The deep backcountry of the Everglades is also teeming with life. On a recent day in the backcountry, we caught snook, redfish, bream (I haven't caught a pan fish on fly in over a decade), and gar all in the same few coves. As temperatures cool, catches of 40+ redfish are becomming less uncommon in a single day. We've been having a ball catching a bunch of backcountry redfish on DOA CAL shad tails in the new Fiji Chicken color fished on a 1/8oz or 1/4oz chartruese CAL jighead. Fall fishing is just straight up fun and relaxing.
Days have been real windy so it has been fun tackling some big chop in big water in my new 18 Maverick Mirage. I recently added a Minnkota Riptide ST trolling motor with iPilot for some of the deeper water backcountry stuff and it has worked amazing. The spot lock feature on the iPilot trolling motor is pretty amazing (thought it does kinda promote my laziness).
This is definitely a cool time of year to fish…
Stay tuned for more skiff fish porn…
The end of one and beginning of next…… the INCUBATION.
All my life, I have always tried to seek out the best of the best and this comes especially true when choosing my next flats skiff. This will my my third skiff I own and my third product from Maverick Boat Company as well. Currently, Maverick Boats is building my next skiff… and for the first time, I was able to build one from scratch with every little nit pick detail that I desired. After a 12 year run fishing the shallows from Flamingo to Islamorada, I have finally spec'ed out everything I wanted in a skiff; both for guiding and for fun fishing days.
I learned to run a boat and fish the shallows at age 12 on a Hewes/Maverick Light Tackle 18 flats skiff (currently the Redfisher 18). It had a 2 tone commander blue and white hull with Yamaha 150HP Saltwater Series motor, lots of weight, and a fishy attitude. I tried to get into places where this big flats boat was pushed to it's limits from big water Dolphin fishing to shallow water Redfishing. This was hardly a skiff, but a big water flats boat, which my buddies and I actually did end up still trying to pole. For many years, I first learned to fish Whitewater Bay before learning how to fish the flats out front in Florida Bay. Along the way, my buddy Capt. Frank had also taught me how to bonefish in Key Largo as well as introduce me to fly fishing. I did a lot of this in either Frank's Hewes Bayfisher 18 or my Hewes Light Tackle 18. These bigger skiffs were adequate and got me where I needed to be dry and comfortably. I fished the hell out of my 18 Light Tackle from the day I bought it in 1998 until the day I sold it in 2004.
In the next few weeks, I will keep an updated blog on Saltyshores of the entire skiff building process that goes into a Maverick Mirage HPX from start to finish. Until next time…. stay tuned for the "Hatching"!!!

Product Highlight: ComforTrak Bed
The History of Inversion Table Bed Designs
For over 30 years, Teeter Hang ups has prided itself in providing the quality that has no comparison. In this blog, you will b able to see how Teeter Inversion products have evolved and achieved excellence in engineering.
Nylon: Over the years we've designed a lot of surfaces for our inversion tables. We started out with a sleek, removable, adjustable nylon cover around steel tubing, a basic functional design that allowed your spine to easily decompress and stretch unencumbered. This was the industry standard for many years, and remains widely used among lower price point models.
Plastic: Our next upgrade featured our first plastic injection-molded design with flexible ribs like a high-end office chair, called FlexTechnology. This first-of-its-kind bed was movable so you could stretch laterally and from side-to-side. We are proud to say that we set the industry standard and the trend for this new type of inversion table.
Our Latest Innovation: Our newest line of inversion tables takes the plastic bed model one step further with the ComforTrak design. Just like the FlexTech beds, the pressure-reducing design that maximizes comfort and flexes with the user to enhance joint mobilization.
Additionally, the ComforTrak bed's innovative track design accommodates the Adjustable Acupressure Nodes and Lumbar Bridge accessories, providing the restorative benefits of a massage therapist right into your home and giving you the option of greater lumbar relief. Grip-and-Stretch handles are also integrated into the bed.
Models that feature the ComforTrak bed include: EP-560 Ltd., EP-860, EP-960, EP-970 and NXT-S.
Better Back Acupressure Nodes:
Tension tends to accumulate around specific meridians along your back, and hides deep within your muscles. Using the Acupressure Nodes (optional accessory), you can pinpoint your muscle pain and relieve it as you invert. Muscle pain tends to "bind up" everything that surrounds it and makes it more difficult for your body to decompress. When your muscles are relaxed, you feel better and your decompression is accelerated.
Better Back Adjustable Acupressure Nodes include:
- Adjustable Positioning: Simply insert and twist to lock in place – the ComforTrak bed design allows you to adjust the placement of the nodes wherever you need them.
- Versatile Application: Invert at a static incline to maintain steady pressure or oscillate (rock rhythmically up and down) to create body slide over the nodes for a shiatsu-style massage.
- Variable Intensity: An assortment of node heights and densities allow you to customize the pressure for the ultimate in relaxation and relief:
- Green – Short and soft.
- Yellow – Tall and soft.
- Orange – Short and hard.
- Red – Tall and hard.
Better Back Lumbar Bridge:
A common ailment we hear about from our customers is lower back pain. The lumbar region of the back is one of the most common sources of back pain and we are always looking for improved ways to give our customers relief from their discomfort.
The Lumbar Bridge provides a point of support, focusing extra traction on the lower back. The overall benefit is deeper decompression and improved alignment benefits.
Better Back Lumbar Bridge includes:
- Customizable Support: The Lumbar Bridge can be adjusted from a subtle, supportive curve to a more dramatic arch depending on your desired effect.
- Adjustable Position: Shift up or down on the horizontal tracks in the bed to adapt to your desired position.
- Durable Design: Flexible plastic injection molding enhances body slide for deeper decompression and resists wear and tear.
- Enhance with Accessories: Vertical tracks on the Lumbar Bridge mimic the ComforTrakTM bed design to accommodate use with the Adjustable Acupressure Nodes (sold separately).

Joseph E. Johnston (1807-1891)
Joseph Eggleston Johnston was one of the most brilliant of the Confederate generals. He was a West Point graduate (1829) who resigned his position as brigadier general in April 1861 to join the Confederate Army. Johnston's quick action at 1st Bull Run turned a defeat into a victory. He was appointed full general, but the fact that he was placed fourth among other generals caused a lifetime feud with Jefferson Davis. Jefferson Davis, unhappy at Johnston's inability to stop the Union Army, relieved him of his command in 1864. Once Sherman marched through Georgia and headed into the Carolinas, the Confederates cried out for Johnston. Davis relented in 1865. Unfortunately Johnston did not have enough troops and had to surrender on April 16, 1865. Unfortunately, petty bickering over rank and frequent wounds marred Johnston's service to the Confederacy. This is a photograph of him in his Confederate uniform.

50 Cent takes swing at promoting boxing in NevadaNovember 20, 2012 // 0 Comments

Las Vegas (AP) — Rapper and entrepreneur 50 Cent is taking a swing at promoting boxing in Nevada.
Nevada Athletic Commission executive Keith Kizer said Monday the entertainer and businessman whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III won approval last week for a promoter's license.
The company is called SMS Promotions. It's handling a Dec. 8 bout at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas between Cuban-born Miami-based boxer Yuriorkis Gamboa and an opponent yet to be named.
Messages left Monday with the company in New York City weren't returned.
Kizer says 50 Cent and boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. had been talking about forming a promotions company called TMT Promotions.
But the rapper told the commission those plans fell through, and the fledgling business was being absorbed by SMS Promotions.

Cinram International Income Fund is a Toronto, Canada-based manufacturer of pre-recorded Blu-ray Discs, DVDs, CD-Audio, CD-ROMs, VHS tapes and audio cassettes. The company was established in 1969 in Montréal by Isidore Philosophe and Samuel Sokoloff.[2]
The company started manufacturing prerecorded eight-track tapes and cassettes in 1969 in the basement of a commercial building in Montreal. More than three decades later, in 2003, the company completed a US$1.1 billion purchase of the music- and movie-manufacturing assets (WEA Manufacturing) of New York media giant Time Warner. Also that year, it bought the United States manufacturing operations of EMI and, later, Universal Media & Logistics France from Universal Music Group.
Cinram opened its first CD plant in 1987, when records and cassettes were still dominant. In the 1990s, the company started investing in manufacturing operations in Europe, and in 1997, when video-store racks were still filled with VHS tapes, Cinram began producing DVDs for movie studios. The company is currently valued at over $1.6 billion.[3]

First two races of Cork Week yesterday (Monday). There are about 10 boats in our class, which is pretty small compared to pre-GFC Cork Weeks, but the quality is high. Every day of Cork Week has different courses, and today was the 'Trapezoid Course' - a beat, then a pretty tight reach, then 2.5 sausages followed by a short reach to the finish.
Peninsula Signal 8, prepping in Hong Kong
Race 1: Breeze was offshore, NW 8-11kn; we came off the boat end in good shape and as the breeze phased left we flipped and led the pack out to the right where the pressure looked better. This was our first chance to pace against Antix and Tokoloshe in a real race, and so it was great to find we were going much as expected, and moved out nicely from our ahead/leeward position.
The breeze filled a bit better down the middle of the course as it turned out, so that Tonnerre (Ker 46) and Brevity (Swan 42) came out nicely at the top mark, and we rounded fourth just behind Toko. Along the reach we took the high road and with the A1 up we blew nicely over the top of Toko and Brevity into a clear second by Mark 2. Down the run we had our first chance to see how the pole went, and it gave us nice options as the pressure became patchy, so we extended decently on the pack. Tonnerre was flying away ahead in clear air (that's likely to be the case all week!).
Up the second beat and down the second run we caught some nice shifts and extended significantly, and although there wasn't anything major in terms of breeze we felt we had done well. Gloves Off (Corby 38) was having a great race, but Antix in particular was very deep, so there were definitely some snakes out there along with the ladders. In the end on corrected it was Tonnerre from Gloves from Toko and then us.
Race 2: The forecast was for the breeze to fade and veer over the course of the day, with rain coming in. We came off the line two up from the pin with Tonnerre and Antix below us, and carried on out to the left because there was a rainstorm on the edge of the land which seemed to be sucking away some of the wind over there.
Sure enough the boats that went right had a horrid time, and we rounded a clear second behind Tonnerre. The breeze had also swung a bit left, and the reach was tight, so we held a little high before hoisting the A1 but then carried it nicely pressed into Mark 2, before turning downwind for the run to Mark 3. The breeze was definitely fading now, and we used the pole but very close to the forestay, and really went away down the run.
We were in great shape at the bottom mark, and headed out right on the beat before deciding to flick back to the middle left about half way up, which turned out to be a poor decision as the raincloud out the right this time brought pressure and a veer, and Toko and Brevity made decent gains on us. But we were still in good nick, and as the breeze faded we went better and better and eventually crossed in a clear second on the water only to be pipped by Gloves who had another blinder and TIE with Toko to the exact second!
So like we expected, in 7-11 it's tough, but we're putting in scores that keep us in the hunt. Tonnerre looks amazing and obviously as they are deep into their fourth season they have really got her modes sorted. Today's forecast is for slightly stronger winds, and it's supposed to get really peppy on Thursday.
Heading off to Club now in fleece and salopettes, just as a HK Observatory text comes through on my phone alerting me to the Very Hot Weather Warning just posted in Hong Kong. The search for the happy medium continues...

While Guam boasts 11 species of native freshwater fish, there are an equal number non-native freshwater fish. Introduced through aquaculture, home aquariums or as pest control, these foreign fish have taken to the wild and established themselves throughout the island's rivers and streams.
A fair number of Guam's non-native freshwater species are prized as game fish by recreational anglers -- as they should be. Species such as peacock bass, tilapia and catfish are plentiful and great for eating.

|What is an Alternative Break?
The objectives of an Alternative Break program are to involve college students in service projects and to give students opportunities to learn about the problems faced by members of communities with whom they otherwise may have had little or no direct contact. Being completely immersed in diverse environments enables participants to experience, discuss, and understand social issues in a significant way.
The Iowa State University Alternative Breaks program seeks to use this community service experience as a springboard into lifelong active citizenship where the community becomes a priority in an individual's life decisions. (Adapted from Break Away, the National Alternative Break organization).
Eight Components of a Quality Alternative Break Experience
Strong direct service
Programs should provide an opportunity for participants to engage in direct or hands on projects and activities that address critical, but unmet social needs determined by the local community. Community interaction is highly encouraged during the break.
Strong alternative break programs include participants representing the range of students present in the campus community. Coordinators should recruit, design, implement and evaluate their program with this end in mind.
Participants should be oriented as to the mission and objectives of both the break program itself and of the host agency or organization with which they will be working.
Programs should include educational sessions which participants attend prior to and perhaps during their break program. These sessions should provide participants with a sense of the history of both the region they will be working in and of the problems they will be working with during the break. Sessions might include written material, guest speakers, a discussion of the issues, a movie, a slide show, etc.
Participants should be provided with adequate training in skills necessary to carry out tasks and projects during the trip. Ideally this training should take place prior to departure, although in some instances it may occur once participants have reached their site. Examples of training include teaching basic construction skills, learning house to work with physically challenged persons, or learning how to test ground water for impurities.
During the trip, participants should be encouraged to reflect upon the experience they are having. Time should be set aside for this activity to take place both as a group and as individuals.
Upon return to campus, programs should have reorientation activities for all participants where they can share their break experiences and translate this experience into a lifelong commitment to active citizenship. Through these activities, participants can learn about volunteer opportunities in their local area, summer internships, political avenues for continued community involvement, resources for continued education on social issues, tips for making personal decisions that benefit the entire community, and much more.
Alcohol and other drug free
Programs should be aware that issues of legality, liability, and personal safety and group cohesion are of concern when alcohol and other drugs are consumed on an alternative break. Programs should provide education and training on alcohol and other drug related issues as well as develop a policy on how these issues as well as develop a policy on how these issues will be dealt with on an alternative break.

You can as well hang beads or like something else crystals on the actual twigs, instead.
Use This a.arge centerpiece, or like something else make several centerpieces for each table setting. This can as well be used to hang place cards on for guests to find once they enter the actual reception.
Also, This make.onderful wish tree in (now this really is helpful) which guests hang well wishes for the actual bride and groom.
Decorate with, like together pictures for the actual wedding reception. Decoration ideas for photos include placing several pictures of the actual bride close to the actual wedding cake.

Hispanic Target Media, Inc.
File No.: EB-09-SD-0055
NAL/Acct. No.: 201032940001
Licensee of Station KUKY(FM)
Wellton, Arizona
Facility ID No.: 162388
Adopted: October 28, 2013
Released: October 29, 2013By the Regional Director, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau:
In this Forfeiture Order, we issue a monetary forfeiture in the amount of eight thousand
dollars ($8,000) to Hispanic Target Media, Inc. (HTM), licensee of Station KUKY(FM), Wellton,
Arizona, for willfully and repeatedly violating Section 73.3526(b)–(c)1 of the Commission's rules (Rules)
by failing to maintain and make available the Station KUKY(FM) public inspection file at its main studio.
On September 24, 2009, agents from the Enforcement Bureau's San Diego Office (San
Diego Office) attempted to conduct a station inspection of the Station KUKY(FM) main studio, which is
located in Yuma, Arizona. The agents were greeted by the station's general manager and began their
inspection. The agents requested to view the Station KUKY(FM) public inspection file. However, the
station manager did not understand the agents' request. The station manager said that Station
KUKY(FM), which began operations on May 20, 2009, had not maintained a public inspection file and
no such file was available for review. When asked why no public inspection file was maintained, the
station manager replied he was not aware one was required and that no such file was maintained at Station
On December 21, 2009, the San Diego Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for
Forfeiture (NAL) in the amount of $10,000 to HTM for failing to maintain and make available the Station
KUKY(FM) public inspection file at the Station KUKY(FM) main studio.2 HTM responded to the NAL
on March 5, 2010 (Response).3 In its Response, HTM requests that the forfeiture be cancelled because
HTM maintained the complete Station KUKY(FM) public file at the local library and because the Station
KUKY(FM) station manager was not fluent in English and, therefore, did not understand the questions
being posed by the San Diego agents.4

3 See Response of Hispanic Target Media, Inc. (filed Mar. 5, 2010) (on file in EB-09-SD-0055) (Response). HTM
requested and was granted an extension of time to file its Response by the San Diego Office.

Federal Communications Commission
The proposed forfeiture amount in this case was assessed in accordance with Section
503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (Act),5 Section 1.80 of the Rules,6 and the
Commission's Forfeiture Policy Statement.7 In examining HTM's Response, Section 503(b) of the Act
requires that the Commission take into account the nature, circumstances, extent, and gravity of the
violation and, with respect to the violator, the degree of culpability, any history of prior offenses, ability
to pay, and other such matters as justice may require.8 We considered HTM's Response to the NAL in
light of these statutory factors and find that a reduction of the forfeiture is warranted for the reasons
discussed below.
Section 73.3526(a) of the Rules requires that all FM Broadcast stations maintain a public
inspection file and Section 73.3526(b) requires that the file be located at the main studio of the station.9
Section 73.3526(c) of the Rules requires that the file be available for public inspection at any time during
regular business hours.10 On September 24, 2009, agents from the San Diego Office attempted to inspect
the file during regular business hours, but were unable to access the file at the station's main studio and
were informed by the station manager, apparently erroneously, that a public inspection file was not
maintained by Station KUKY(FM).
HTM does not dispute that the public inspection file was missing from the Station
KUKY(FM) main studio. Consequently, we find that any language issues that may have existed between
the San Diego agents and the Station KUKY(FM) station manager are not dispositive in this case. Had
the station manager fully understood the request from the San Diego agents, he apparently would have
informed the agents that the public inspection file was maintained at the local public library. We accept
HTM's representations that a public inspection file for Station KUKY(FM) existed. However, the public
inspection file was not maintained at the main studio nor made available at the time of inspection:
violations of Section 73.3526(b)–(c) of the Rules. Citing our decision in American Family, HTM argues
there is precedent that its good faith efforts of maintaining a complete public inspection file accessible at
the local public library requires that the forfeiture be cancelled.11 We disagree that the decision in
American Family requires the cancellation of the forfeiture because in that case the forfeiture concerned
only three late-filed items in a public inspection file, which was maintained at the station's main studio.
In the present case, the entire file was unavailable at the Station KUKY(FM) main studio. We agree,
however, that a reduction for HTM's good faith efforts is appropriate and, therefore, we reduce the
forfeiture from $10,000 to $8,000.12

relating to public file violations because the station was able to show that the three items missing from the file had been
untimely filed by the station manager. American Family, 18 FCC Rcd at 16532, para. 9.

We have examined HTM's Response to the NAL pursuant to the statutory factors above
and in conjunction with the Forfeiture Policy Statement. As a result of our review, we conclude that
HTM willfully and repeatedly violated Section 73.3526(b)–(c) of the Rules. Considering the entire record
and the factors listed above, we find that a forfeiture in the amount of eight thousand dollars ($8,000) is

Syria: 120 Troops Killed Around Protest City
Interior Minister Vows 'Decisive' Response
Syrian state media today reported at least 120 troops were killed by "armed gangs" in the area around the town of Jisr al-Shugur, the site of yesterday's major protests and violent crackdown. The toll was impossible to verify.
Syria's state TV said 82 were killed in the city itself as a result of an ambush, and that government buildings across the area had been attacked, many of them being set on fire. The toll has continued to rise throughout the morning, with reporters initially saying 20, then 40, then 80 were killed before settling on 120.
Residents of Jisr al-Shugur described the situation as relative calm, saying that a handful of protesters had attacked police with hunting rifles yesterday, and that there were an unknown number of deaths, but that the situation had quieted down.
Syria's Interior Minister Ibrahim Shaar promised a "decisive" response to the deaths. Government officials have repeated termed the protesters "armed terrorists" and the like, and today's massive putative death toll fits neatly into this narrative.

A lie. Assad is as big a liar as Mubarak, Qaddafi, Israel and the US combined. As for the 'gangs' yeah, in Egypt they turned out to be thugs and in Libya they were mercenaries from Africa. What a tragedy!
What has transpired at the city of Jisr al-Shughour remains confused except for the possibility that the rebellion against Bashar Assad may escalate. Conflicting reports concerning the death of 120 government forces will be overshadowed by a major assault upon this city. This may very well be the start of civil war. Reports are coming out that the Muslim Brotherhood, who led the 1982 revolt, are equipping in anticipation of armed struggle. Even if the attack upon Jisr al-Shughour does not result in widespread destruction, the seeds for civil war will blossom. The spiraling of marches and repression has gone on too long and the desire for retribution increases. Reprisals and sectarian violence is almost a sure thing. International calls of outrage are pushing for greater response from the US and EU. Material support and/or armed intervention will only contribute to the territorial and national disintegration.
One of the strongest arguments President Assad has used to keep some semblance of allegiance from the majority of the populace is that outside sources are behind the uprising. The funneling of arms and money would lend credence to his case. It would divide the citizens into camps that would reenact the events of Lebanon and Iraq. US and/or EU armed intervention will not be a Libyan redux. It will take an effort similar to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The defeat of Syria's army is a foregone conclusion–as was the Iraqi's. But it is the aftermath that will see a long and bloody battle that will produce far more than 2,000 plus dead.
As distasteful as it may seem, those who wish to see a stable, unified and more democratic Syria must offer a different pathway. The 40 year regime of the Assads must end, but in arriving at this point negotiations must be reached between the protestors and government supporters that permits as smooth a transition as possible. Calling for criminal actions against Assad et al will not encourage them to surrender themselves for punishment. Neither will the continuing mass demonstrations allow Bashar the fig-leaf of acting without duress. It is here that outside parties could use their offices through backdoor channels to bring about an arrangement that would remove the present dictatorship, minimize reprisals, insure domestic tranquillity and avoid sectarian clashes, establish a temporary government that will protect civil and political rights, establish a formula for a new governmental system, and maintain territorial integrity and national unity.
Time is not on anyone's side except death and destruction.

|RET 3'UTR polymorphisms and its protective role in Hirschsprung disease in Southeastern Chinese.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22974609 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|BACKGROUND: Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is a complex congenital disorder characterized by intestinal obstructions owing to the absence of the intestinal ganglion cells of the nerve plexuses in variable lengths of the digestive tract. Several RET polymorphisms and haplotypes have been described as underrepresented in HSCR patients with respect to controls. We thus sought to investigate whether polymorphisms in RET 3'UTR are associated with isolated HSCR in the Chinese population.
METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct sequencing were used to screen polymorphisms in RET 3'UTR in patients with sporadic HSCR and ethnically matched controls in Han Chinese populations. Association tests of RET 3'UTR variants and haplotypes with HSCR were performed.
RESULTS: We examined a total of 107 Chinese sporadic HSCR patients and 89 ethnically matched controls by sequencing the 3'UTR of the RET gene. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 2 monomorphic SNPs were identified. The genotype distributions and the allele frequencies of the 5 SNPs were significantly different between HSCR cases and controls and occurred more frequently in the control population. Haplotype analysis has shown a higher frequency of haplotypes comprising variant alleles in controls as compared with cases.
CONCLUSIONS: The significant deviations of the genotype distributions and the allele frequencies of these SNPs in the HSCR population compared with the control population demonstrate that these SNPs have a strong negative association with HSCR and could act as protective alleles.

'What, you're not Jewish?' ad pulledComment on this story
Jerusalem - Complaints by Russian-speaking immigrants prompted an ultra-Orthodox party in Israel to pull a TV commercial plugging their election campaign which shows a man recoiling in horror at discovering his bride is not Jewish.
In the advert, a Russian-accented bride receives a faxed certificate during her wedding ceremony attesting to her conversion to Judaism. With disgust in his voice, her Israeli husband blurts out: "What, you're not Jewish?"
The controversy reflected long-standing tensions between the religious Shas party, a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, whose core constituency is made up of Jews of Middle Eastern or North African descent, and parties representing immigrants from the former Soviet Union.
There are at least 2 million Russian-speaking immigrants in Israel and hundreds of thousands do not meet Orthodox standards for recognition as Jews.
Several immigrants complained about the commercial in letters to the Israel Central Elections Committee and many more posted protests on social media sites such.
Nino Abesadze, immigrant lawmaker and candidate for the centrist Labour party, denounced the Shas advert in a notice posted on her Facebook page as "racist and mocking of the immigrants", and demanded it be taken off the air.
In a statement the committee said late on Wednesday it had found the advert offensive and that Shas had agreed not to run it anymore. The minute-long spot aired for two nights in the run-up to the Jan. 22 parliamentary election.
Parties championing Russian-speaking immigrants such as the far-right Yisrael Beitenu led by former Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, want to simplify Jewish conversion procedures in Israel controlled by the Orthodox Rabbinate.
Shas opposes this, as it does calls for civil marriage in Israel. The Rabbinate, also in charge of marriage procedures, issues marriage licences only to couples it deems Jewish under ritual law. - Reuters

Investigators search a pool in St. Albans Wednesday morning where the body of Christopher Davis, 22, of Swanton, was found earlier this week. / MATT RYAN, Free Press
The citys police chief and the countys top prosecutor said this morning they hoped to receive more information later today from an autopsy that began Tuesday on the body of Christopher Davis, 22, of Swanton. Police suspect an armed Davis, who was also known as Christopher Muir, robbed a convenience store in that town last month. / Courtesy photo
Update 9:20 a.m.
Franklin County State's Attorney Jim Hughes said he is meeting with investigators this hour to review the autopsy conducted on a man found dead in a public pool in St. Albans earlier this week.
Hughes said he had been preoccupied with juvenile court proceedings Wednesday, and had yet to be briefed on the latest developments regarding the death of Christopher Davis, 22, of Swanton. Hughes said as of 9 a.m. he had "no idea" how Davis died.
ST. ALBANS Investigators have recovered evidence from the public pool in St. Albans where a body was found Monday, but through Wednesday evening had nothing to say about whether the man was a victim of foul play.
The citys police chief and the countys top prosecutor said Wednesday morning that they hoped to receive more information later in the day from an autopsy that began Tuesday on the body of Christopher Davis, 22, of Swanton. Police said an armed Davis, who also was known as Christopher Muir, robbed a convenience store in Swanton last month.
St. Albans Police Chief Gary Taylor said his department has three teams of investigators chasing leads and conducting interviews related to Davis death. Taylor said rumors regarding Davis and his death have been swirling through the city and across Facebook.
At about 9 a.m. Wednesday, four Vermont State Police crime scene investigators decked out in white coveralls climbed into the empty pool, which workers had drained Monday. For roughly three hours, they photographed, raked and shoveled debris, including leaves and dead rodents.
When they left the scene at noon, Taylor said investigators had found no evidence to suggest Davis took his own life or was killed.
We didnt find a smoking gun, he said.
He asked anyone with information to call the St. Albans City police station.
City employees found Davis, fully clothed, in the murky water at about 1:20 p.m. Monday, Taylor said. The workers had gone to the pool on Aldis Street across from the St. Albans Elementary School to ready it for summer use.
Franklin County States Attorney Jim Hughes said investigators are unsure how long Davis body had been in the pool, but it was long enough to make the autopsy complicated.
Davis family reported him missing March 30, a day after, police said, authorities suspect he robbed a Champlain Farms store in Swanton.
Police also considered Davis a person of interest in three other holdups in St. Albans during the first nine days of April, Taylor said.
