South Bank
There are privately-owned student accommodation providers in Brisbane who mainly offer accommodation to students in shared apartment complexes. The closest of these to the South Bank precinct are:
If you would like to rent your own house, apartment, townhouse or flat, real estate agents and private providers advertise on the following websites:
Sippy Downs
The USC accommodation and amenities booklet provides information on:
- Student residences / accommodation
- Hotels, motels and apartments
- Backpackers / hostels
- Caravan / cabin parks
- Bed and Breakfasts
- Homestay
- USC Student Guild — 'Off campus accommodation register'
- Online accommodation reservation services
- House / unit rentals — Real estate agents
- House / unit rentals — online
- Share houses — online
Located just over one kilometre away, Chancellor Park Marketplace has a supermarket, newsagency, bank, post office, medical centre, pharmacy, travel agent, bakery, retail and food outlets and a tavern. The accommodation and amenities booklet also provides a full directory of amenities located a short distance from the Sippy Downs campus.
It is essential for international students to organise either short or long-term accommodation before arriving on the Sunshine Coast so you know you have somewhere to stay when you get here. Use this guide to help choose and book your accommodation. There are many other accommodation options available on the Sunshine Coast but this will give you some options to start with and offer some context on which to base your own broader search. Searching for the right place could take a couple of weeks, so it is recommended that you book temporary accommodation before arriving.
Due to the University's close proximity to a number of towns, conveniently located off-campus accommodation is easy to find, either through local real estate agents and newspapers or our Off-Campus Accommodation Register. You can find share accommodation or rent a unit or house with friends. Visit the USC Student Guild at the Uni Club located next to the oval and car park 5, or via mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Coast2Bay Housing Group have a number of NRAS properties coming up in the near future in Bli Bli, Nambour, Woombye, Beerwah, Landsborough, Maroochydore, Sippy Downs, Peregian Springs and Taigum. Properties in Gympie are available now.
NRAS homes are 1, 2 and 3 bedroom units or houses (depending on availability) under the National Rental Affordability Scheme (NRAS) property. You must have an NRAS Registration Number before applying for a property. NRAS property applications are only applicable to Australian Citizens.
Please visit the Department of Housing and Public Works. For more information ring NRAS. Tel: 61 7 5451 2900.
South Bank
If you would like to rent a room in a shared house, the following resources may be useful:
There are plenty of hostels, backpackers and other short-term accommodation providers available in Brisbane. These may be suitable while you are sourcing long-term accommodation.
Brisbane has a good public transport system, but also over 185 suburbs – make sure you consider a location that has good public transport links to the South Bank precinct.
The Translink journey planner can help you plan how you will get from any potential accommodation to the South Bank education precinct.
Accommodation providers
Accommodation providers should visit Information for accommodation providers.
* For PDF documents you must have the free Adobe Acrobat Reader, which can be downloaded from the Adobe Download page.
Homestay is recommended for English Language Program students.
Living with an Australian family gives you the opportunity to experience the Australian culture and speak English on a daily basis.
Standards-based Homestay is an option for all students and may be particularly appealing to those students coming to Australia for the first time.
The University of the Sunshine Coast has teamed up with the Australian Homestay Network (AHN) to give international students the opportunity to be hosted by a specially trained AHN homestay host for their introduction to accommodation and living in Australia.
Please refer to the Homestay website for full details including costs and the application process.
For more information on Homestay, International students should contact USC International Student Services.
Accommodation for students with a disability
Students with a disability can contact the Disability Adviser. Tel: +61 7 5430 1226 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for assistance in accessing suitable accommodation.

In yesterday's post I discussed a few things that you can consider in order to get your site up 'tuned up' at the new year. I received a few emails thanking me and asking how to manage their workload. For example, Wendy asked,
Thanks for the tips – I do not think I ever looked at my CR [copyright] date – LOL! It was set at 2010! I am a casual blogger and only write about once a week, sometimes only 2 a month. So your tips are great.
I find that I have too much stuff to do, too little time to do it, and get overwhelmed very easily. I get easily distracted (I have a 2 year old and a 6 year old – both boys!) and I am trying to help my husband with his business. This is not really WordPress related (or is it?) but how do you manage to do all the things that you do? There is always something to learn and I go into information overload. I then shut down. This is not very good.
Wow! Great question! And a timely one as well. Normally, I save questions like this for Friday's Question post. Tonight, at 8 pm EST, David Perdew of NAMS and Gary Huff will be providing a free training dealing with Information Overload.
Let's face it – it's a common problem – there is so much informationa and so much to do, that you simply do nothing. Get nowhere. And the longer it lasts, the worse it can become. Gary is a professional at doing this – I will be on the call, and I encourage you to sign up as well. After all, it is free!
For scheduling purposes, I use a site called Toodledo.com – there is a great little app for my iPhone that I use to help manage all the things that I need and want to get done. I access it throughout the day. If there is interest, I can do a write up on that free service. I have tried using paper planners, electronic reminders, scraps of paper, post-it notes, you name it, and I have tried it. By centralizing with Toodledo.com, I find it a lot easier to work it all out.
When I get ideas for posts on this site, I create an entry into Toodledo as reminder. Sometimes I even schedule it so I know I have to do it.
By the way, I used to use Evernote for this type of activity, but found the tasks I needed to do just got lost in all the 'notes' I was taking.
I hope this was useful! Take a moment and sign up for the free training and let me know what you use to stay on track!

text: Comment by Tank Lanning – Sport24 editorLondon – "Better late than never" was my immediate thought upon hearing that centre Andries Strauss will join the Springboks in London on Wednesday. He has been called up as a replacement for the injured Zane Kirchner, who suffered concussion and a mild elbow sprain in the 21-11 victory over England, for the tour finale against the Barbarians at Twickenham on Saturday.Right from the get go I thought the initial Bok squad selected was light on specialist centres, and with Kirchner having had to play centre and the likes of Elton Jantjies, Alistair Hargreaves and Coenie Ossthuizen having carried the bags for the entire tour, so it seems I might have been on the right track.But it's probably a little too late now. I can't see Peter de Villiers throwing Strauss, someone who has not been part of any Bok squad or training session ever, into the international mix right away. Also, with the coach feeling obligated to give each of the initial squad a start, it seems Jantjies get the nod at flyhalf, with Pat Lambie and Adi Jacobs forming the centre combination.Which would be a little sad actually … I can see the reasoning, but if the Boks are going to keep the ball in hand a little more – and let's hope that to be the case against the Baa Baas - the half back combination you want is Francois Hougaard and Lambie.And quite clearly Baa Baa coach Nick Mallett has heard the same thing. Speaking to Sport24 colleague Stephen Nell yesterday, Mallett praised both Lambie and Jantjies but also had this to say: "Obviously there is a question about size and how he will defend that channel"And then watching him put the star studded Barbarians through their paces at a local school gym – due the freezing cold and snow – it was very clear that all strike moves are planned to have the likes of Joe Rococoko and Ma'a Nonu running onto the Bok flyhalf and inside centre channels.But Mallett also speaks sense when saying that "It's actually your system that determines how good your defence is", going on to stress that if Jantjies understands the system and his role in it, there is no reason that he can't do well. Gio Aplon is a case in point. By no stretch of the imagination a giant, but phenomenal in knowing his role in the defensive system, and hugely technical and gutsy.And guts a plenty it's going to take to stop this Barbarian side …Matt Giteau, a surprise choice as captain it has to be said, leads a team packed full of international superstars including the likes of James O'Connor, Drew Mitchell and Adam Ashley-Cooper to go with the already mentioned All Black cyborgs.Salvatore Perugini of Italy and Martyn Williams of Wales represent the Six Nations and two uncapped players, New Zealand No. 8 Colin Bourke from the Chiefs, and Western Province captain and second row Anton van Zyl will also be in the run on XV.The addition of Van Zyl to the Barbarian mix makes this fixture all the more exciting. Obviously he would prefer to be playing for the side in green and gold, but it was fantastic to see his enthusiasm for what should be great entertainment. He teams up with former WP team mate and lock partner, Chris Jack – a man who made such a difference during his stay in the Western Cape, and he is itching to see what he can do against the Bok lineout.TeamsBarbarians: James O'Connor (Aus), Joe Rococoko (NZ), Drew Mitchell (Aus), Adam Ashley-Cooper (Aus), Ma'a Nonu (NZ), Matt Giteau (Aus, capt), Will Genia (Aus), Salvatore Perugini (It), Stephen Moore (Aus), Neemia Tialata (NZ), Anton van Zyl (Stormers), Chris Jack (NZ), Rodney So'oialo (NZ), Martyn Williams (Wales), Colin Bourke (Chiefs).Replacements: Keven Mealamu (NZ), John Yapp (Wales), Quintin Geldenhuys (It), Daniel Braid (NZ), Andy Ellis (NZ), Stephen Donald (NZ), Seru Rabeni (Fij).Coach: Nick MallettAssistant coach: Alan SolomonsProbable Springbok side: Gio Aplon, Odwa Ndungane, Adi Jacobs, Patrick Lambie, Lwazi Mvovo, Elton Jantjies, Francois Hougaard, Willem Alberts, Juan Smith (captain), Keegan Daniel, Bakkies Botha, Alistair Hargreaves, CJ van der Linde, Adriaan Strauss, Coenie Oosthuizen Bench: Bandise Maku, Tendai Mtawarira, Jannie du Plessis, Flip van der Merwe, Ryan Kankowski, Charl McLeod, Andries StraussDate: Saturday, December 4Venue: TwickenhamKick-off: 16:30

in or out?
It's a much more common yet complex dilemma than it might appear at first. I'll leave it up to you to come up with a convincing example, and let's just go with – I am right – on this one. But besides the obvious belly button issue, the one I am concern with is a matter of inspiration. Do you reach in? Reach out? And where does it go when it's not here? I can imagine it being a communal property, similar to the ZipCar model, but a lot less reliable, no insurance, and you buy your own gas. That would explain why there isn't enough for all of us. But even so, could one farm and pickle it away for the rainy day when fresh stuff is not as available. And would a plastic bag with a label on it – with, potentially, a strict warning or an explicit threat –be enough for it to survive through lunch?.. I wonder sometimes, if I were to sit down under the tree — assuming the type of a tree makes a difference – could I come up with a better packaging for light bulbs or learn the meaning of all suffering as orange? What I am tryig to say is that, I don't have it. But luckily, Puff'n'sip is on!
Today's, September 1, 2010 Puff'n'sip will venture @
5:11 PM to Sapphire, 475 Sacramento (@ Battery)
and trott over @
7:03 PM to Cigar Bar and Grill, 850 Montgomery (@ Jackson).
Lotsa love,
Big Red.

Lego to open first Utah store, at Fashion Place Mall
A Lego store is set to open this fall at Fashion Place Mall in Murray.
A spokesperson for the Lego Group this week confirmed the location but declined to provide further details.
The 3,000-square-foot store will open in the fall, between Macy's and Crate & Barrel, said Natalie Watson, senior marketing manager for Fashion Place Mall.
"We are excited about this unique store coming to Utah," she said. "We will partner with Legos for a wonderful grand opening."
Legos are a popular line of construction toys manufactured by The Lego Group, a privately held company based in Billund, Denmark.
The Murray location will be Lego's first in Utah.
The company plans three other U.S. openings this year: Danbury, Conn.; San Antonio, Texas; and Des Peres, Mo.
Lego products are sold in more than 130 countries.
The Lego Group, with approximately 10,000 employees, says it is the world's third-largest manufacturer of play materials.
The company is still owned by the family of Kirk Kristiansen, who founded it in 1932.

Andrť Kertťsz: photographs from the J. Paul Getty Museum
The Museum, 1994 - Photography - 147 pages
Hungarian-born Andre Kertesz (1894-1985) was one of the most influential and popular photographers of the twentieth century. This volume presents for the first time selections from the Getty Museum's holdings of Kertesz's photographs, including work from his Budapest, Paris, and New York periods. The book also offers an intimate look at Kertesz through a dialogue among four of the people who knew the artist best during the last years of his life: Robert Gurbo, Curator of New York's Andre and Elizabeth Kertesz Foundation; David Travis, Curator of Photography at the Art Institute; Sylvia Plachy, photographer; and the Getty's Curator of Photographs, Weston Naef. The discussion was moderated by Charles Hagen, writer and critic for the New York Times.

A Taste of His Own Medicine
By Megan Smith
To many, Larry Flowers is a great mechanic; what they don't know is his depth of knowledge in alternative medicine.
Skipping across a lake atop a pair of trick skis seems like the last place to find someone suffering from a chronic back injury.
The injury that prevented Larry Flowers from joining the military nearly 40 years ago has plagued him most of his life. At times, this Adamsville auto shop owner found it difficult to complete even the simplest of tasks.
Flowers' journey from being nearly disabled to participating in extreme sports began with a trip to his local chiropractor's office.
Flowers chiropractor put him into an alternative medicine program that completely cured his back problem and changed his life forever.
Flowers story began in Milan, Tenn. where as a child he worked with his Father selling produce, building houses and tinkering with automobiles.
Whatever his father did, Flowers helped with.
Flowers said, "School wasn't the most important thing to my father. It was helping him getting work done."
Flowers met his wife Vicky when she was going to school at UT Martin, and she got her first teaching job at McNairy Central High School.
In 1995, the Flowers' adopted their son Kyle. Kyle was born in Selmer, and they were able to take him home from the hospital.
Over the years, Flowers worked at various jobs moving furniture, hauling produce and as a mechanic before finally opening his auto repair shop in Adamsville, which has now been in operation for 22 years.
Flowers' back injury treatment led to an interest in other forms of alternative medicine.
Someone introduced Flowers to a book on the China Study.
Flowers stated, "The China Study is the largest nutritional study ever done in the history of the world on what food does for our health, paid for by our tax dollars, not some industry."
Flowers said that this study saw tremendous results in decreases in heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and arthritis.
Flowers began using the results of the study. After two months, he says he lost thirty pounds of weight and forty points in cholesterol.
Flowers said that he saw excellent results during physical examinations. He says that medical doctors were amazed that he didn't take any medicine for his health.
However, Flowers eventually bought a $25 test to check his cardiovascular system, which showed some unfriendly results. He ignored these results, writing them off to the inaccuracy of the test.
A few weeks later, Flowers had a chest pain. He went to the doctor and ended up being flown to St. Thomas hospital for double bypass open-heart surgery.
After initially being frustrated by the lack of results from his healthy life-style, Flowers said he came to a realization.
Flowers stated, "I had eaten the great American diet for sixty years and what I should eat for two years. It just wasn't quite long enough to reverse what the sixty years had done."
Flowers said he wished he had gotten some chelation therapy to reduce the plaque on his artery walls, which he feels would have prevented the surgery.
Flowers has also read books like The Fungus Link by Doug Kaufmann. Flowers said that this book is about common problems that people are dealing with that they are unaware of, such as candida and fungus.
Flowers said that it frustrates him that most doctors are taught nothing but drugs, surgeries, and procedures in medical school.
"They are taught almost nothing about natural medicine or things we can do for our health," stated Flowers.
Often, Flowers stated, if doctors do suggest a change in diet or an exercise regiment, they get such little results that they get tired of bothering, so they prescribe medicine.
He said that most people's idea is that health is only found at the doctor's office.
Flowers has also been using a company in Florida called Renew Life. He says that they have many types of cleanses to get rid of toxins that have built up in the body because of the food we eat and the things that we work around.
Flowers now takes control of his health by being active. He loves to water ski and enjoys trick skiing. Flowers said he teaches many people to water ski as well.
Flowers enjoys river trips also. He takes small boats down the Tombigbee to Mobile, Ala. or down the Cumberland River or from Memphis to New Orleans down the Mississippi River.
Flowers stated, "Every avenue that I've picked I've had some solid, positive results out of it. In each case, it's because it's something that I do, not just something that I read or that I think about. I only get the results when I do it."

Star Trek: TNG - Hive already has continuity flaw

Re: Star Trek: TNG - Hive already has continuity flaw

Ahh, but those
necessarily the same future! Remember, at the end of "Future's End," Captain Braxton's own history had been changed so that he had never been thrown back in time and had to live on 20th-century Earth. Yet the Braxton of "Relativity" remembered living on 20th-century Earth and had a grudge against Janeway because of it. They contradict each other, which is really just sloppy writing, but it certainly doesn't support your case that they're the same unalterable future.
I think most instances of sloppily written continuity errors in time-travel episodes can be chalked up to the concept of alternate universes. Writers can argue that when characters go back in time to change the past, they aren't changing their OWN past, they're actually creating an alternate universe. Then when they return to their "own" time, they're actually traveling forward into the future of that alternate reality they created. And in their original timeline, nothing's been changed and they've simply disappeared forever. So when Kirk went back in time to save those whales, HIS 23rd Century Earth still got destroyed. But the 23rd Century Earth in the NEW reality he created survives.
I actually think that argument was made clear by Abrams' film and the Countdown comics that preceded it (in which even after Spock and Nero disappeared into the black hole, Spock Prime remembered the universe in which Vulcan wasn't destroyed, and we were shown that the TNG universe we know continued to exist.
So in keeping with that principle, the Braxton who remembered what happened and the Braxton who never did any of it were not the same person; they were Braxtons from two different realities.

MILWAUKEE (AP) - A Milwaukee woman accused of killing a pregnant mother and trying to steal her fetus can be seen in a police video telling detectives she beat the victim with a bat before choking her to death.
Prosecutors played almost 40 minutes of video Wednesday for the jury. It shows 34-year-old Annette Morales-Rodriguez providing a detailed description of the attack.
The video shows her sitting in an interrogation room, where she sobs and sniffles and occasionally covers her face with her hands. She tells police she planned to steal the full-term baby and pass it off as her own.
She's charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the death of the mother and fetus.
Her attorney contends the homicides weren't intentional because Morales-Rodriguez didn't intend for anyone to die.

Lynnwood-based Zumiez income rises with its growth
The Lynnwood-based retailer of sports apparel admits to a slow start to the year but holds to its plans for growth.
The sports apparel retailer reported earnings of $42.2 million, or $1.35 per diluted share. That compares to $37.4 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, in 2011. Zumiez saw a 22 percent increase in net sales in the fourth quarter, though sales at locations open at least a year declined.
The retailer of sports apparel, equipment and footwear acknowledged a slow start to 2013 but remains committed to a long-term strategy of growth for its bricks-and-mortar stores and its e-commerce business.
"We believe our unique approach to the marketplace ... will continue to separate us," Rick Brooks, Zumiez chief executive, said Thursday in a call with stock analysts.
With 472 stores in the U.S. at the end of 2012, Zumiez will continue its charge this year toward operating 600 to 700 shops. In 2013, Zumiez will open 60 stores around the world, continuing a push in Canada with as many as 10 stores and adding six stores in Europe. New stores in Austria and Germany are part of the company's European expansion following the purchase of sporting retailer Blue Tomato last year.
So far, Zumiez officials have been pleased with Blue Tomato's performance and noted the corporate culture of the European retailer is a good match. However, Zumiez' Brooks is more focused on how Blue Tomato fares over the next five to 10 years than the short term.
"Europe is a huge (sporting retail) market," he said.
Along with the addition of new stores, Zumiez is looking to beef up e-commerce, which accounted for 8.3 percent of domestic business in 2012. That's up from 1 percent five years ago, Brooks said.
"We're looking to launch a new Web platform in both the U.S. and Europe this spring," he said.
The new Web platform is to help Zumiez cater to the various ways consumers are shopping today thanks to smart phones, tablets and similar devices. The retailer also launched last year a customer loyalty program, Zumiez Stash, which rewards shoppers for purchases as well as enabling social-media interaction with Zumiez.
"It's definitely a world where the consumer has the power," Brooks said. "It's a world that we can embrace and I think we can do great things."
Zumiez provided an earnings estimate only for the first quarter of 2013. The company projects net income of $141 million to $144 million, or 4 cents to 7 cents per diluted share, which includes charges for the acquisition of Blue Tomato. Analysts were expecting net income of 13 cents per share on $144.9 million in revenue, on average.
Shares of Zumiez dropped 27 cents to $24.22 during regular trading Thursday. The company's stock declined another 22 cents in after-hours trades.

Ok, so I just started riding 2 1/2 years ago, and I've had a trainer the entire time (the same one too)...he started out teaching me to stick my toes out to the sides, to encourage my heels to stay down and calves on my horse's sides. The result: I have a strong seat and very secure legs now, BUUUUUTTT....
...now, 2 1/2 years later, I come to find out that your toes are supposed to be pointing FORWARD, not out to the sides! He just teaches that way at first to get newbies to make contact with the correct part of their legs on the horse's sides, then apparently expects me to UNLEARN it!!
Anyway, one of my friends told me I look like Mary Poppins the other day before my dressage test when I was warming up, because my toes were sticking out! I need some pointers on how to break this habit...it's VERY difficult for me to break since it's the only riding I've ever known!! Here are some pics to show you what I mean:
This one looks worse than it is because I was on the "up" post so my legs were disconnected for a second, but it really gives you a good view of where my toes are:

The Alabama Extension Service has been holding blood drives for a sick child of one of its employees.
Recently, 7-year-old Sam Andress contracted E.coli from an unknown source. At one point his kidneys shut down.
Part of the treatment involves blood transfusions.
Red Cross officials say blood supplies are at a critical level statewide.
"Sam is recovering now, but there are sick children and adults who need blood transfusions. It's truly giving the gift of life. We need up to 700 units of blood per day," said Cassandra Williams.
Sam Andress has been released from Children's Hospital in Birmingham and is recovering at home.

JAMES, EWING STANFORD (1900–1976). Ewing Stanford James, Southern Baptist pastor and editor of the Baptist Standard, the official organ of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, was born on March 1, 1900, in Butler, Oklahoma, the son of Albert D. and Sophronia (Turner) James. After high school he graduated from Southwestern College in Weatherford, Oklahoma. While he was in school he served as a student pastor at Baptist churches in Leedey and Custer City. In 1925 he married Opal Clark of Leedey. They had four children. After graduation James moved to the pastorate of the First Baptist Church in Liberal, Kansas, a position he held from 1928 to 1930. He moved to Texas in 1930 and accepted the pastorate of the First Baptist Church of Cisco. After seven years he went to the First Baptist Church of Vernon, where he stayed from 1937 to 1954. In 1954 he became editor of the Baptist Standard. James was best known for his journalistic campaign against the election of John F. Kennedy in 1960. During his tenure as editor of the Standard, he was considered a strong champion of the separation of church and state. Two of his positions-opposition to federal aid for Texas Baptist colleges and to the election of a Catholic presidential candidate-made him nationally known. After Kennedy was elected, however, James supported him as president and later reversed many of his preelection opinions. James received numerous honors during his tenure in Texas. Two Baptist colleges-Howard Payne (1936) and Hardin-Simmons (1954)-conferred honorary degrees upon him. In 1961 he was elected second vice president of the Southern Baptist Convention. He was named Texas Baptist Elder Statesman in 1964. James retired from the Baptist Standard on November 1, 1966, and died on April 26, 1976, in Dallas.

Jacob Gube On Building A Fast Growing Web Design Blog
Jacob Gube is the founder of Six Revisions, one of the most popular and fastest growing web design blogs on the Internet.
He's also a web designer and web developer who specialises in front-end development and PHP development.
In this interview, Jacob:
- Tells us the story of Six Revisions, one of the biggest AND fastest growing web design websites on the Internet.
- Takes us behind the scenes of running a successful multi-author blog.
- Shares what made Six Revisions so successful.
Interested? Keep reading!
Please introduce yourself to our readers.
Hello, I'm Jacob Gube. I'm the founder of Six Revisions, a website that publishes articles, tutorials and resources for web designers and web developers. I'm also the co-founder and technical editor over at Design Instruct, a web magazine for designers and digital artists where you learn design tips and tricks.
You're the founder and the chief editor of Six Revisions, one of the largest web design and web development blogs on the Internet, can you tell us a bit more about it?
Six Revisions is a site that grew out of my personal desire to write about the web design and web development industry. It started in early 2008, and has since grown into something that I couldn't have imagined at the beginning. It's all been a very humbling experience.
To date, we've published over 1,000 articles on Six Revisions and we've had the opportunity to work with a combined total of over 200 authors (on Six Revisions and Design Instruct).
In all the posts we publish, we emphasize on practical and applicable information that the modern web designer/web developer can readily use in their day-to-day activities.
Six Revisions is also one of the fastest growing web design and web development blogs out there. What was your experience with online marketing and blogging prior to starting it?
I had no experience with marketing or blogging prior to starting Six Revisions. My only experience in blogging came in the form of developing custom WordPress themes (which was, at the start, primarily a blog-publishing platform).
You've started Six Revisions as a single-author blog, but then it evolved over time and now you have a team of great writers over there. Why did you decide to bring them on board (as opposed to sticking with a "one man's show" approach)?
There are many reasons for running a multi-author blog. The biggest reason is content diversity — it allows readers to experience different styles of writing and they're able to see a broader picture of the industry, as opposed to reading about it only from one person.
Also, it enables us to publish more content than what's possible if I were the only one writing. As the founder, I have various other responsibilities aside from writing articles, so I'm able to put more time into those things.
Talking about writers, how did you manage to build a great team that you have today?
They're terrific, aren't they? Many writers approach me via email after reading Six Revisions, with the desire to get their work published on the site. In addition, I regularly recruit new authors through various means, such as coming across an article they've written and me sending them an invitation to write for us or through social media.
You put a big emphasis on the quality of the content. How do you decide what makes an article good enough for Six Revisions?
A high-quality article is one that's useful and written well. A lot of it is subjective. We do have a basic rubric for rating a submitted article, but I've personally found that you can't adequately and consistently rate articles based on a strict set of rules. After reading as many article submissions as I have, though, and after years of getting feedback from our awesome readers, I've been able to develop a sense of what the audience will like.
Web design and development is a very rapidly changing field. What do you do in order to stay up to date with the shifting interests of your audience? How do you know what people want to read about?
The most crucial thing I do is listen to the readers. They collectively tell us what direction to take and what we need to do in order to make their experience and self-education better.
Also, I read a lot of content outside of our web properties, and I keep up with news about web design and web development and related fields. I also practice web design/web development regularly, to keep my own skill set sharp, to learn about new projects, techniques and technologies, and to further keep myself informed about the industry.
How did you promote Six Revisions in the beginning and how did you get your first visitors when you were only starting out? Also, how do you promote it now? What proved to be the most effective marketing strategy and why?
In the beginning, there really wasn't much promotion. As the site started to establish itself within the community, readers would submit our content on social news sites like Digg and StumbleUpon — and from there, the site just grew.
Now, we also get a lot of readers through Google search results.
Our strategy for promoting the sites today is simple: What I do is share our articles on Twitter and Facebook, that's it. I firmly believe that if you publish great stuff, people will eventually find their way to your site and your existing readers will share your content within their own social networks.
What do you think is the main reason for the explosive growth and success of Six Revisions?
The main reason is our readership. They come to the site and share insightful comments. They share our content on social networks. They motivate us to continually produce great articles, tutorials and resources about web design and web development.
And, equally, our writers are also an enormous driving force behind our continual growth and success.
Running a high-traffic multiple author blog seems like a very complicated task to most people. How do you handle the logistics of that? Is it really that difficult or is it relatively easy once you have a proper system in place?
I'll have to be honest, it is very difficult. It involves long hours. It's a 24/7 job — there are no weekends and holidays and you always have to be connected. Being a founder of anything is a way of life, not a profession. However, the biggest reward, for me at least, is the possibility that you could've helped make a web designer's or web developer's job easier that day.
It's important to have a solid process in place. Consistency is important. Also, you have to regularly evaluate whether the processes you've designed and implemented are really the most efficient ways of doing things.
As with most things, it does get easier the longer you do it. But, in my experience, that just means you'll be able to take on even more challenging activities.
Last, but not least, what would you advise to someone who wants to build a successful web design and development blog, but is only in the very beginning of this path?
The biggest advice I have is to focus on producing the highest-quality content you possibly can. To a content-centered website, this is your sole product, and so that's where most of your time and resources should go into. It's a continual learning process, and it'll be hard at the start, so keep pushing and don't give up!
Thank you!
In a Nutshell
- You can grow much faster and offer your readers a wider variety of perspectives if you run a multiple-author blog.
- It's hard to evaluate the quality of articles based on a certain set of rules. It's better to trust your own intuition on this (..the more articles you have to evaluate, the easier it will be to separate high quality content from an average quality conent..). However, a general guideline that a good article must be both well-written and useful is something to keep in mind.
- You need to be dedicated to publishing only high quality content. This isn't easy and takes more time in the short run, but it will help you to grow much faster in the long run.
- It's very important to listen to your readers. Pay attention to what they like and what they want to read more about. This will help you build a loyal audience relatively fast.

Pope to Visit Tomb of Father of Europe
| 1598 hits
VATICAN CITY, NOV. 13, 2008 (Zenit.org).- Benedict XVI will visit the Roman parish of St. Lawrence Outside the Walls and stop at the tomb of Alcide de Gasperi, a founding father of the European Union.
The Pope will make the visit and celebrate Mass there at 9:45 a.m. on Nov. 30, L'Osservatore Romano reported. He will pray at the tomb of St. Lawrence, marking the 1,750th anniversary of his martyrdom, and at the tomb of Blessed Pius IX.
Alcide de Gasperi (1881-1954) was a politician who, together with Konrad Adenauer, Robert Schuman and Jean Monnet, is considered a "father of the united Europe."
He served as minister of foreign affairs and prime minister in Italy, and he founded the Christian Democrat Party there. The cause for his beatification has been opened.

I kind of let this blog go over the past year and a half. This was partly due to time but mostly out of a lack of interest. However, I intend to share more writing and pictures in the future.
Now, if you'll pardon the cross-post, I have two suggested and somewhat intertwined reads on Japanese photography-
1. via the new site for longform writing on photography, papercuts:
To look is everything: Yasuhiro Ishimoto, Masahisa Fukase and Shomei Tomatsu
In 2012 three of Japan's most distinctive and influential photographic voices, Masahisa Fukase, Yasuhiro Ishimoto and Shomei Tomatsu, passed away. Is a certain approach to photography fading away?
Written for IMA magazine vol.3 by writer Marc Feustel
2. via the excellent Trans Asia Photography Review:
Distinctiveness versus Universality: Reconsidering New Japanese Photography
Art historian Yoshiaki Kai brings to light details of the creation of the 1974 MOMA show New Japanese Photography, a collaborative exhibition between John Szarkowski and the legendary editor Shoji Yamagishi. The entire piece is fascinating, and the excerpts from the critics encountering the work are quite interesting:
Bewildered by Moriyama's work, the photo critic Andy Grundberg could not resist suggesting: "Daidoh [sic] Moriyama . . . is considered the doyen of the current generation of young photographers, but from the selection here one might think he was four or five photographers—all members of a degraded camera club."

John Southworth, Venerable
English martyr, b. in Lancashire, 1592, martyred at Tyburn, June 28, 1654
Southworth, JOHN, VENERABLE, English martyr, b. in Lancashire, 1592, martyred at Tyburn, June 28, 1654. A member of a junior branch of the Southworths of Samlesbury Hall, Blackburn, he was ordained priest at the English College, Douai, and was sent on the mission, October 13, 1619. He was arrested and condemned to death in Lancashire in 1627, and imprisoned first in Lancaster Castle, and afterwards in the Clink, London, whence he and fifteen other priests were, on April 11, 1630, delivered to the French Ambassador for transportation abroad. In1636 he had been released from the Gatehouse, Westminster, and was living at Clerkenwell, but frequently visited the plague-stricken dwellings of Westminster to convert the dying. In 1637 he seems to have taken up his abode in Westminster, where he was arrested, November 28, and again sent to the Gatehouse. Thence he was again transferred to the Clink and in 1640 was brought before the Commissioners for Causes Ecclesiastical, who sent him back there June 24. On July 16 he was again liberated, but by December 2 he was again in the Gatehouse. After his final apprehension he was tried at the Old Bailey, and as he insisted on pleading "guilty" to being a priest, he was reluctantly condemned by the Recorder of London, Serjeant Steel. He was allowed to make a long speech at the gallows, and his remains were permitted to pass into the possession of the Duke of Norfolk's family, who had them sent to the English College at Douai. The wonderful recovery in 1656 of Francis Howard, seventh son of Henry Frederick, Earl of Arundel, was attributed to these relics, which were secreted during the French Revolution, and the present location of which is now unknown.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. -- 50 years ago today, the world changed in the blink of an eye after the violent and abrupt end to the Kennedy presidency.
A beautiful fall day in Dallas, Texas gave way to darkness and tragedy after the brutal assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy in Dealy Plaza.
Grand Junction resident Gerald Blaine not only knew President and Mrs. Kennedy he was hired to guard and protect the president. As a retired secret service agent for Presidents Dwight Eisenhower and Kennedy Blaine wrote "The Kennedy Detail," which he says is an attempt to reclaim the truth about November 22, 1963 from conspiracy theorists who he says hijacked the truth.

If you take the time to think about it you're going to see that a multi vitamin, while beneficial, doesn't contain all of the vitamins and minerals you need everyday. For individuals who do not eat properly it's vitally important to take the multi vitamin as this can supply you with some of the nutrition that your body needs, but you must remember your body won't absorb everything from that vitamin. If you only wind up taking a multi vitamin you're going to realize other nutritional supplements could be required such as a fish oil capsule and maybe even a garlic capsule. Something you need to understand is that based on the foods you eat every day you may actually require many more nutritional supplements to obtain the nutrition you need.
The food pyramid is a thing that is really based on people's nutritional needs and something you should try and follow at each and every meal. When they came up with the food pyramid they did this in order to educate individuals on what foods they need to eat every day to get the nutrition that their body requires. Of course you need to understand that there are lots of individuals out there who do not like to eat vegetables, and this is where most men and women will end up getting almost all of the nutrition that their body needs. While a lot of folks can still live a healthy life without heating meats, all of the individuals that are not eating the vegetables and fruits they should be are doing harm to their body each day, and that's why a vegetable and fruit drink might be a good addition to your diet.
Something I ought to point out is that your doctor will actually be able to help you set up a diet that is packed with nutrition, you are going to simply need to ask him or her to help you develop this diet plan. You'll also discover that these individuals can also point you in the correct direction for getting the proper vitamin supplements you might need to be able to keep you healthy. You will see that not acquiring the proper nutrition each day will be something which will affect your overall health and could also wind up shortening your life span, which is why the proper nutrition is so vitally important.

VitaMedica Quality
A Brand Trusted by Physicians
An anesthesiologist's primary job is to keep patients safe as they traverse the challenging experience of surgery. In addition to practicing vigilance, the anesthesiologist must have expertise in pharmacology or the use of drugs, many which have botanical roots.
Based on this insight, it should come as no surprise that as a board-certified anesthesiologist trained in conventional medicine, pharmacology and alternative medicine, David H. Rahm, M.D. uniquely understands the importance of safety, quality and efficacy when formulating VitaMedica products.
That's why for over a decade, more than 1,500 physicians across the country have trusted VitaMedica nutraceuticals to help their patients recover after surgery or maintain their surgical results for years to come.

Homeopathic Remedies
In addition to nutraceuticals,VitaMedica's product line includes homeopathic Arnica Montana. Most are surprised to learn that homeopathic remedies are not regulated as dietary supplements but as drugs. Since 1938, homeopathic medicines have been classified as drugs under the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act.
Official homeopathic drugs are those that have monographs, which are official listings of drug data, in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States (HPUS). As an example, homeopathic Arnica Montana has a monograph. The HPUS is prepared by a nongovernmental organization, the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia Convention of the United States, which is composed of scientists and clinicians trained in the medical specialty of homeopathic medicine.
Similar to the cGMPs set forth by the FDA for dietary supplements, HPUS establishes a set of standards for manufacturing homeopathic medications. Because homeopathics are considered drugs, a company marketing these products must register with the FDA and obtain a National Drug Code or NDC number. Each homeopathic medication bears this number along with the lot number.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids
In 1996 when Dr. Rahm started counseling patients at The Wellness Center, he recommended that they augment their diet with Omega-3 fatty acids. After investigating a number of companies that specialize in organic seed oil production, Dr. Rahm started exclusively recommending Omega Nutrition nutriments for his patients.
Over 15 years later, our partnership with Omega Nutrition allows us to offer the highest quality flax seed oil that is certified organic, kosher and GMO free. As a Canadian based company specializing in the production of flax and culinary oil products for over 20 years, Omega Nutrition is an industry leader that we're proud to partner with.
Like flax seed oil, manufacturing high-quality fish oil requires expertise and specialization. After researching a wide number of companies, Dr. Rahm opted to partner with Ocean Nutrition. This Canadian based company specializes in the research and manufacture of Omega-3 based ingredients. As a vertically integrated seafood company, Ocean Nutrition oversees the entire production process - from managing select sardine, mackerel and anchovy fish stock off the Peruvian coast - to extracting the oil using a specialized microencapsulation process. Our formula contains only the highest quality, purest Omega-3 oils which exceed all government guideline levels for safety. Our fish oil is United States Pharmacopeia or USP certified. That's why our packaging includes Ocean Nutrition's tag line "Trust the Source".

Evidence-Based Formulations
If the FDA has leveled the playing field by mandating all those involved in the dietary supplement industry to adhere to Current Good Manufacturing Practices, how do brands and products differ? Product formulation is a good place to start.
|Back to Top
Quality Ingredients
Developing a formulation using evidence-based medicine is the first step in delivering a high-quality nutritional supplement. The next step is to select high-quality ingredients. This seems pretty obvious but lower-priced brands do not use the highest quality ingredients because they cost more. As with so many things in life, the expression "you get what you pay for" applies equally well to nutritional supplements.
|Back to Top
Environmentally-Friendly Packaging
We're concerned with maintaining a healthy balance not only with our bodies but with our environment too.
Starch-Based Peanut Pack: Instead of using polystyrene-foam packaging peanuts, we use starch-based peanuts. These peanuts still pack, protect and pad fragile items during shipping but can be dissolved in water and washed right down the kitchen sink.

Many animals in the Southern Ocean ecosystem depend on krill.
Pose the question: Why are krill considered a key species in the Southern Ocean ecosystem?
The survival of conspicuous groups such as whales, seals, penguins, oceanic birds, squid and fish depend directly or indirectly on krill. Discuss how krill's swarming behaviour, its prolific seasonal production and its high protein content make krill such a valuable food source.
How would you find out which animals feed on krill?
- Have students discuss/debate the value of krill as a human food source. What are the significant problems (technological, ecological, economic and social) of krill catching, processing and selling? Discuss possible solutions to these.
- All commercial fisheries on the planet are close to (or are) overfishing their resources. What special precautions would you take to ensure you weren't damaging the ecosystem by overfishing krill?
- What lessons can we learn from the past when other living resources of the Southern Ocean, such as seals and whales, were exploited?
See Krill and Krill: magicians of the Southern Ocean on the AAD site for more information.

Hi all, just wanted to give a quick ride report of the Copper Triangle that happened in Colorado this weekend. This was the ride that got me hooked on road biking. I rode my first one a year ago, on a rented bike that was nowhere near close to fitting and the saddle was some sort of medieval torture device. It was a horrendous 78 miles.
This year was much much better. We had great weather, no wind and it seemed like everyone I spoke with had a great time. The only place I really struggled was the last 7 miles up the West side of Vail pass. I took a good friend on this ride and it was his first. He had a great time as well and is looking forward to doing his first true century.
Every red jersey I saw, I looked at to see if it was a 50+ jersey but sadly, I saw none. Maybe I'll get a chance to buy one and fly that banner at next years event!
PS - I hope the downed rider that was on the east side of Vail is OK. I stopped only long enough to ask if they had plenty of help, they did, so I made room for medical.

Northampton County Energy Services Project – #4
by Dan Kerr on Nov.08, 2012, under Construction Services & Building Design, Energy Services, Mechanical Contracting
If a picture is worth a thousand words, how many are two worth? When it comes to energy savings, these two pictures tell a tale that will help Northampton County, Pennsylvania, reduce their annual energy bills by about $1.2 million. Speechless? It's true.
The first photo is us removing one of their old, behemoth oil-fired boilers. The second photo is us sliding a relatively puny—but efficient—natural gas boiler back in its place. You can literally see the energy efficiency differences in these machines by comparing them side-by-side. Did I mention that this measure alone will save the county almost $1.2 million annually?!
The boiler replacement measure was one of several that were under construction this summer. In total, this two-phase project is guaranteed to reduce Northampton County's annual energy expenditures by $1.7 million. I do a double take every time I review the engineering numbers on this one! It's pretty satisfying to be associated with a project that will have such an enduring positive impact.
The Northampton project was also the main subject of Anne Deeter Gallaher's guest post in early October. Thanks again to Anne for her kind words!
