Trying to figure out the female face measurements and such.
Trying to figure out the female face measurements and such.
female face 001 from imagination
Hi Everyone! It's been awhile since I last posted anything. I've been really busy with school and been doing many many still life and anatomy studies. I've filled 2 sketchbooks in the last 2 months maybe.
The following is a photo reference study of a female face after countless hours of doing planes and skull studies.
The rest are still life studies done in charcoal on 18x24 inch drawing paper followed by some anatomy (done from memory) and a planes and skull still life.
Here is a Master Study followed by my other studies.
My study week breakdown:
M= Figure and Anatomy
T= Head Planes, Skull, & Muscles
W= Perspective, Form, light, etc...
Th= M
S= Application
Sun= Master Study
Thanks for looking and have a good weekend everyone.
Here's another week of studies. Nothing digital this time.
I've started studying perspective using 'Vanishing Point' by Jason Meyer. I found the Loomis stuff hard to start off with.
I'm trying to do a lot of gesture and life drawings.
It may not be high quality right now but I'm not spending much time on rendering, just trying to understand the fundamentals a bit better, and anatomy of course.
Here is some more work from this week. A lot of gesture studies, some really bad drawings and some perspective with reference from the book 'Vanishing Point'.
Here's a painting I did the other day. Almost forgot about it. It's far from refined but I got bored with it.
*Photo Referenced.
A slow week of studies. I missed my perspective day due to the holiday but the fun I had makes up for it.
I think I'm going to incorporate a landscape day into my routine. Backgrounds need lovin' too.
The top painting was referenced for the emotion. (I'll be doing more with expressed emotions.)
It's been a few since I've posted but I've been really busy working on this short Graphic Novel in a collaboration with a friend of mine who wrote it (Matthew Meyers). This has been a great study on composition and dramatic lighting and many other things. I had to fight not to actually paint scenes every time.

Richard Hoy | November 10, 2000 | Comments
Nothing can take the air out of an email marketer's tires like landing on the Realtime Blackhole List. If you end up there, your email newsletter won't be delivered to the inboxes of people who signed up for it. Richard's here with some sound advice to steer you in the right direction.
Last week, I wrote about what your email newsletter should be about and gave some suggestions on formatting. This week, I'm going to focus on delivery and best practices.
I tout it so much that it should give me stock in the company, but I think a product called PostCast is the perfect solution for small-scale email campaigns. As I wrote last week, it is basically an email server attached to a Microsoft Access database. It lets you extract data from an email message, put that data into the right fields of a database, then lets you do mailings against that database.
If you have a DSL line and an available desktop computer and can read the book "Access 2000 for Windows for Dummies.," you have the makings of a cheap but powerful email marketing system.
No solution is perfect, and so my recommendation that you use PostCast comes with the following caveat: The software can send only about 3,000 messages per hour on a 256K DSL line. That means it is feasible to send email to 19,000 to 24,000 subscribers in an eight-hour period. But despite this downside, it is still a good deal at $300 for the full version. And you can try it for free.
So now that you have a way to deliver the email messages in a timely manner, we should focus on the best practices you should use while running an email-based marketing effort. And despite what the industry is trying to do to police itself, I think the best efforts to date have come from the MAPS folks -- that's Mail Abuse Prevention System -- and their Realtime Blackhole List.
The Realtime Blackhole List is a list of known spammer domains. The MAPS folks maintain this list and offer free copies to ISPs, which then use it at a basis for their spam-filtering efforts. Many ISPs use it, including America Online. So that means if your domain gets on this list, your messages will likely be filtered out of the mailboxes of most of the people on your mailing list. This is what happened to yesmail.com over the summer, and it led to a lawsuit that was settled out of court.
Now I am certainly no fan of spam. But I am a little nervous about an organization that can just shut down another without any sort of adjudication process. I've been running various email lists for a long time now, and I can tell you that subscribers aren't always right. They sometimes have short memories and can forget that they joined your list of their own free will. And when you show them evidence of this, they back down. (This is a good reason to keep all records of each subscription request!)
The MAPS folks have come up with a list of best practices that I recommend you follow:
Rule 1: The email addresses of new subscribers must be confirmed or verified before mailings commence.
This is know in industry parlance as "double opt-in." No one is added to the list until he or she has replied to an email message confirming sign-up. This prevents someone from signing up an email address without the owner's knowledge.
Rule 2: Mailing list administrators must provide a simple method for subscribers to terminate their subscriptions.
This is pretty self-explanatory: Make it easy to unsubscribe.
Rule 3: Mailing list administrators should make an "out of band" procedure.
All this means is that subscribers need alternative ways to contact you other than email or a web site. Giving your phone number, fax number, and/or physical address on each mailing will suffice.
Rule 4: Mailing list administrators must ensure that the effect of their mailings on the networks and hosts of others is minimized by proper list management procedures.
Basically this means keep your list clean of bad email addresses. Every time you send an email out, whether it makes it to its destination or not, you are using someone else's computer. So be kind and use only the resources necessary.
Rule 5: Mailing list administrators must take adequate steps to ensure that their lists are not used for abusive purposes.
This means protect your mailing list with your life. Limit who has access to it.
Rule 6: Mailing list administrators must make adequate disclosures about how subscriber addresses will be used.
Tell your subscribers up-front how you intend to use their information.
Rule 7: Mailing list administrators should make adequate disclosures about the nature of their mailing lists, including the subject matter of the lists and anticipated frequency of messages.
This is related to rule six. Tell subscribers what the mailings will be about and how frequently you will send them.
If you ever are accused of spamming and you are following these rules, your accusers won't be able to make the charges stick.
I'm out of space again. Next week, let's dissect an actual newsletter so you can see how all we've discussed is applied.
Type at you then!

Four-star WR Louis flips from Auburn to FSU
Michael Langston
Related Links:
Talk about it in The Main Board
The 6-foot-2, 190-pound athlete stated that FSU likes him as a receiver and he feels he can add to what is already a very impressive young unit of playmakers.
"FSU likes to spread the ball around a lot so that is what I liked a lot," he said. "They also give all their receivers a chance to play or make plays, so that's one of the main reasons I picked them. FSU also never stopped recruiting me even when I was committed to Auburn. So I knew how much they wanted me."
Louis said that he wants to be the first Florida State Seminole to win the Fred Biletnikoff Award because no FSU player has won that and he wants to be the first. It has even more meaning to him because Biletnikoff was the first consensus All-American to play for Florida State.
So what will Louis bring to the FSU offense?
"FSU already has a lot of big time receivers, so I think I add onto that and plan on helping them try and win a National Championship," he said.
A big part of his decision when he said down with his family is the feeling he had while on campus as well as the relationship he built with FSU assistant coach Dameyune Craig, his main recruiter.
"Coach Craig was always the main one that stayed in touch with me through my high school coach even when I committed to Auburn as I said before," he said. "I liked how straight forward he was about FSU. After I sat down with my family and discussed my decision, we all thought FSU was the best choice for me, plus I could stay close to home."

From Bach to Rock: Using Diatonic Power Chords and Inverted Borrowed Chords to Create More Musical Riffs
From Bach to Rock: Using Diatonic Power Chords and Inverted Borrowed Chords to Create More Musical Riffs
Matthias Young
One of the most enjoyable things when learning to play the guitar can be writing your own music. This was the case for me when I first learned to play, and many of my students love to write their own music as well.
The difficulty in writing music as a beginner (or sometimes even as an experienced player) can lie in having a limited knowledge of chords and how they function within a key, or what a key even is.
What frequently happens for electric guitar players is that their chord progressions consist only of root-position power chords. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but understanding keys, scales and chords can make your writing much more intricate.
This riff-writing exercise will demonstrate how to create diatonic and borrowed chords based on a chromatic bass line while staying in key. For this example, I'm going to use the key of A minor and the harmonic minor scale as my guide for chord construction.
Here's my bass line:
If I take each note of the bass line and create a root-position power chord, here's what I'll end up with: Besides having all parallel fifths, there are problems with the chords B5, C♯5 and D♯5. These all contain notes that don't fit in the key of A minor with the root of the chord given.
But how do we know what chords fit? This diagram shows the diatonic chords within the key of A minor.
Notice all of the chords are built off of the A minor scale. Using just power chords, the fifth will be out of place in several instances. The B5 does not exist in this key, because B5 contains an F♯. C♯5 is incorrect as well, as the G♯ will only be used for the E (V) chord. With D♯5, the A♯ is also outside of the scale. This will very be problematic if you're writing a melodic line in the key of A minor, as notes are going to clash with these three chords.
In the audio file, I've recorded a solo in A minor, and you can hear how notes will clash using all root-position power chords:
A simple way to make the appropriate chord move with the bass is to use an alternation of fifths and sixths:
Using this type of chord alternation with the chromatic bass line creates a very musical progression as several different types of chords are used (or implied). Obviously, the A5 fits. Creating an inverted G chord fits, and it makes a perfect transition to C5.
The A7 chord built off of C♯ is a borrowed chord called a secondary dominant. As it doesn't fit in the key of A minor, if you look to the next chord of D5 and use that key for just that one chord, A7 becomes the dominant (V) chord in the key of D minor.
The exact same thing occurs with the B7 chord. The following chord is an E, so by borrowing that key temporarily, the dominant becomes B7. The final two chords are simply creating a suspension with the interval of a fourth resolving to a third (Esus to E) that can then be resolved back to an A5 chord.
Using the same solo as before, I've combined it with the proper chords for an A minor chromatic progression. Listen to the difference:
Having a working knowledge of music theory can make your musical canvas much easier to paint. It simply gives you a starting point from which to experiment.

I don't mean to sound pedantic but i've spotted a glaring error in the theory side of this article.I'm referring to where the diatonic chords of A minor are outlined.The key of A minor(and it's relative major-C)
contain the notes A-B-C-D-E-F-G and so all chords must contain these notes.This makes the fifth chord in the key of A minor(and the third in C major)an E minor chord(E,G,B)and not a E major chord(E,G#,B)as the inclusion of the G# in the E major deviates from the key.
It could function as part of an A harmonic minor,which you do say you'll be using as part of the lesson but as it is written,it could be misleading.
Just sayin'...
May 06, 2014 at 1:18pm
You're specifically referring to "A natural minor" or the Aeolian mode. The concept of A minor actually includes natural, harmonic and melodic minor.
The inclusion of G# in the key of A minor actually serves to strengthen the key by creating the leading tone that is missing from A natural minor (and which is present in every major scale). It strengthens the key by creating E7 which is more dissonant than Em, thereby creating a more satisfying resolution to A minor. That's why it's used there. In other words, using the F# or the G# in A minor doesn't prevent its "minorness".
In other words, it's a slight omission that could have been more specific, not a glaring error, just like you omit that you're actually talking about A natural minor.
May 05, 2014 at 2:16pm
Don't toss out that power chord line. Use that parallel motion of fifths in a bridge to intentionally give it an out-feel against swept Am arpeggios. Get your bass player to do the same and it can be a sledgehammer. "It's wrong so play it twice."

Phentermine had been among the hottest fat decrease part rear in the years 2002-2006 , when several diet plan supplement makers using this ingredient happen to be becoming purchased in millions through the world. By 2005, it had been said a restricted part , due to the numerous wellness and wellbeing risks that were found amongst citizens using things with phentermine repeatedly. However, the Food and drug administration prohibition with this product didn't really begin to see the departure of its own use. In the most popular value of $70-90, to get a container with 30 phentermine pills , cost ranges skyrocketed to about $350 from the black market. Most of those phentermine-established fat products that were becoming offered had been in fact knockoffs which do not contain the appetite suppressant materials in them.
When a lot of via the internet pharmacies which have been promoting phentermine nutritional supplements without having appropriate physician's recommendations are closed down , phentermine users anxiously looked for alternative choices , and usually ended up with low cost copies , with untested ingredients included. Most of the drugs are excessive in caffein, which made them a great deal more toxic to customers.
There is one specific supplier, RDK Prescription drugs which was in a position to provide a mixture of man-made substances that have the exact same impact of phentermine, while not the dangerous adverse effects. In 2009, the corporation started creation using four new chemical elements in a FDA authorized laboratory in California , and named the phentermine replacement as Phen375, or "phentemine".
The utterly exceptional mixture of Phen375 ensures the indistinguishable effects as phentermine including:
greater metabolic process leading to quicker fat burning up
grow in energy levels
fell cholesterol sums
suppressed desire which helps in losing extra weight quickly
an increased state of well-being and fitness
leaner , greater seeking physique
http://phen375mg.com components
There's 4 dynamic elements in Phen375, among the very most exceptionally successful of that's 1-3 dimethylpentylamine. This is a element that's been synthesized to reproduce the effect of dimethylphenylethylamine, the main ingredient discovered in phentermine. Other powerful elements in Phen375 are:
L-carnitine which works well like the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) which transports the fats in the meals we have for the mitochondria. Research show that unless fats get the mitochondrial membrane, they will not metabolized, in spite of extreme dieting and exercising.
Trimethylxanthine improves the fats burning properties of dimethylpentylamine, which means quicker fat decrease
DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), a substance that helps in breaking down carbs and converting them into an energy supply, which likewise leads to an elevated metabolism.
The main cause why Phen375 is now thought of the best alternate to phentermine is specified that its chemical components are synthesized inside the correct dosage and creation is nicely tracked .

Italian Prime Minister Enrico Letta on Monday said it was possible to boost economic growth without increasing public debt as the key eurozone economy struggles with a lengthy recession.
Speaking ahead of a visit to Madrid, Letta also said Spain was "a natural ally to make Europe a continent that is always more attentive to growth and above all to social malaise".
Letta was expected to meet his Spanish counterpart Mariano Rajoy later on Monday as part of a tour of European capitals that has already taken him to Berlin, Brussels and Paris.
"We can boost growth without getting into debt. Other countries have shown this. We have become very indebted in the past and we have not had growth," Letta said at a press conference in Milan.
Asked about the challenges facing his newly formed grand coalition government, Letta said: "I never said it would be easy. On the contrary, I know very well that it is very difficult."
Italy's national statistics agency earlier Monday forecast that the economy will shrink by 1.4 percent this year -- drastically downgrading its earlier forecast of a 0.5 percent contraction.
It said the economy would grow by 0.7 percent in 2014.

Trustworthy reviews are our priority. Businesses can't pay to change or remove reviews.
We loved working with the Wiebners for both our engagement and our wedding photos. They're amazing at what they do, and you can tell that they take great pride in what they do.
For the engagement pictures we just took a walk around downtown Lancaster, and they were able to spot some pretty incredible places to take our photos. They turned out beautifully.
The couple of photos posted so far of our wedding are incredible. I'm excited to see more! We'll likely be using them as our photographers throughout the years to come, we loved working with them that much!
I think it goes without saying that Joel and Rita rock the socks off photography. For us, photography was our splurge vendor for our wedding and I could not be happier with The Wiebners. Their professionalism, creativity and just downright fun attitude made our day so special. They get shots that you typically only get with an iPhone and nothing is posed or cheesy. We loved having them capture our day and would HIGHLY recommend them for the best photos EVER. But really--worth every single penny.
Rita & Joel are truly the best of the best. For me it was important to splurge on a good photographer so we would have amazing photos of the day to cherish forever and The Wiebners delivered big time. You get two amazing photographers catching every detail plus the ones you wouldn't even think about...they do & catch them. I'd reco booking far in advance as they're super in-demand and can tell you 1st hand, they are worth every cent. We could not have been happier with all our photos and with Rita & Joel who meld right in and have a blast right along with you & your guests. Truly, the best of the best with wedding photographers.
I ended up needing emergency surgery on my spinal cord three days before my wedding. I can't say enough about the sincere compassion and professionalism of this photography team. I wasn't able to plan ahead with them like most brides due to my health. They were so flexible and understanding. Plus, and most importantly, my pictures were stunning. They captured everything I wanted and many I didn't even know I wanted. You can actually feel the emotion and relationship with our guests through the pictures, and I am so very pleased. I am a picky person when it comes to pictures as I am not always so photogenic - haha. But I looked better in these pictures than I ever have, even after surgery! They faded into the background during the service and key events, yet also turned out to be lovely friends and entertaining guests when appropriate. I have worked with a lot of photographers due to my job in Virgina and DC. The Weibners are among the best I have worked with - even with my access to top photographers in a major metropolitan area. I can't say enough about these guys, and I encourage anyone to hire them for any event - formal or casual. You will end up with beautiful artistic and traditional shots that truly allow you to relive the event every time you look at the pictures. They exceed expectation.
The Wiebners were extremely professional, yet personable. They were a joy to work with. Our wedding photos turned out great and we've gotten so many compliments on the ones that are displayed in our house.
Absolutely loved working with Rita and Joel. They captured everything we wanted and even things we didn't know we wanted!
Wonderful couple to work with and we are so glad we were given their name. Our pics were beautiful! I only wish I had more! (Although believe me we had TONS!) I had many friends and family ask for their info for future weddings etc. Thanks so much!
We could not be more thrilled with our decision to hire the Wiebners. Our wedding was in Potter County, PA, which is a bit of a hike from Lancaster where they are located. Not only were they willing to travel to us and stay overnight, but they were great sports about doing a nontraditional, very lengthy photo adventure before our ceremony since we had to many spots that were special to us. We had a BLAST with them. They are such a fun couple to work with. This was our first time being photographed for anything, and both Rita and Joel just made it so easy to get great shots and still feel like we were being ourselves. Our pictures were just posted on their blog, and we absolutely love every shot so far. They are truly talented photographers, and maintain a stellar level of professionalism while still being down to earth and very personable. We really have nothing negative to say about them and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to get high quality, creative shots.
Couldn't have been happier with our choice of photographers. Joel and Rita were more than willing to go to multiple sites for photos and created a relaxed atmosphere. We've gotten many compliments on our photos and most importantly, we, the bride and groom, got exactly what we were looking for!
Good photography was high on our list of important things when planning our wedding. I was beyond happy with the end result, our pictures were absolutely beautiful and so "us".
Joel and Rita did a great job shooting our wedding. HOWEVER, I ordered wedding albums from them almost a year ago and have yet to receive them. I have send several emails and left several voicemails and still have had no response from the Wiebner's. Joel and Rita-if/when you see this. PLEASE CALL ME-610.428.8513
We originally had a very low budget for photography, but after finding The Wiebners' website and just knowing deep down that they were the right choice for us, we decided to go all-out and spend on a really nice wedding photography package.
I've been stalking out their blog to get a sneak-peek of the pictures we're awaiting (I'm so excited!), but am not worried in the slightest as to the quality or "fun" aspect that I know I'll see when we get our pictures any day now. (The blog has several albums of pictures taken at other weddings at our venue, as well as hundreds of other pictures of all sorts of other events that I love perusing in my free time.)
Joel and Rita came highly recommended by our venue and when we logged onto their website, it was clear that they had a similar sense of style, humor, fun that my husband and I have. And they didn't disappoint on the day of either! We were all laughing and the whole "photo shoot" process for the bridal party, family shots, and the ones of us as a couple were so effortless and fun.
I would definitely recommend using The Wiebners for any of life's events that you want to capture and cherish forever!
We LOVE Joel and Rita! Not only were they so great to work with during the planning of our wedding, but their work is outstanding and we've been getting some fabulous comments from friends and family who've seen some of the images they took of our big day.
I would highly recommend them to anyone who's in need of a photographer!!!
The Wiebners were absolutely wonderful! They were so easy to work with and our pictures were incredible!! They captured the joy and fun of the day! We would definitely recommend them to anyone!
Joel and Rita Wiebner were an absolute pleasure to work with on our very wet wedding day. They went above and beyond what we would have ever expected of wedding photographers and captured moments we never knew we missed; those little moments you'll always look back on fondly like Grandma bustin' a move on the dance floor or capturing the smile from someone who rarely smiles in photos. Their personalities and passion for the camera created a very comfortable and relaxed setting so you never even notice the camera, which was a big concern for me as I can be somewhat camera shy, but they made us laugh and worked with us through all the wind and rain. Their work is beyond compare and we could not be happier with the memories they helped us preserve. We can't wait to work with them again in the future!
The Wiebners are a husband and wife team that provide you with a professional experience. They know what pictures to take and when to take them, without being intrusive. Joel and Rita know what they are doing! My husband and I not only enjoyed sharing our special day with these two wonderful people, we also have beautiful pictures to last us a lifetime of memories.

With trees blooming earlier and more pollen in the air, allergy sufferers are feeling earlier symptoms.
- Filed Under
For Michelle Primack of Alexandria, Va., the change this year has been obvious. Allergic to trees, grass, pollens and mold, Primack says she has dealt with a constant post-nasal drip and frequent sinus headaches since mid-February, six weeks earlier than in past years.
"Some mornings I would wake up and feel like I was sick, but I realized my head is just swollen, rather than stuffed up," said Primack, 40, a policy adviser with the U.S. Department of Energy.
"It never really got cold enough to freeze the ground. I don't feel like I ever got a break." ...

Hello All
My name is Dennis and I live in Spokane, WA. Earlier today my brother called me up and told me to come and get my mountain bike back. I had lent to his oldest son, (who is now in Iraq, second tour) about 15 - 16 years ago and all of his kids had used it growing up. The youngest got her drivers license a few months ago so now the bike needs to go home. When I picked it up I was appalled at its condition but really what could I say! Anyway, after I spent nearly four hours cleaning it up and adjusting brakes, shifters, etc. I went my first ride in probably 16 years.
WOW I had forgotten just how much fun riding a bike can be, and how tiring! (did I mention the middle age part yet). Over the last 16 years I have gained a lot of weight. Riding today made me realize just how big and weak I have become. So the first part of the "challenge" I referred to in my title line is this: Can a middle aged man over 250 pounds lose 25 of them in only three months? By sheer luck, (or is it serendipity?) over the last month I have been gradually changing my eating habits and had started a walking regimen of 2 miles every other morning. In that month I have lost 12 pounds. Not much I agree but it is a start.
But hey let's face it walking is boring, biking on the other hand WOOHOO! I have not formed a complete battle plan yet so I may occasionally ask for training as well as component advice.
The second part of the "challenge" is to transform an ancient mountain bike into a modern day, (since I no longer feel any compunction to ride in the mountains again) commuter. Tomorrow I plan on picking up some new brake pads, chain, a couple of cables, lubricant, cleaning supples, and possibly a new seat, ( now how did they tear it up so bad?). I may even pick up one of those fancy compute gadgets to track my mileage. I already ordered some new slick tires for the old girl.
Oh yeah I also plan to RIDE !!
See ya'll later

How to Streamline LinkedIn Sharing With Oktopost
Do you want a quick, easy way to share content to LinkedIn groups?
Do you want to measure how your LinkedIn shares perform?
Oktopost lets you use multiple LinkedIn accounts to schedule shares and track performance.
In this article I'll share the basic ins and outs of using Oktopost for LinkedIn sharing.
Why Oktopost?
Much like HootSuite, Oktopost is a social sharing tool that lets you easily schedule content shares across the major social networks.
3 Tools to Create a Social Media Hub
Are you using user-generated content in real-time?
Do you want to display all of your social media updates in one place?
Streaming social updates to a social hub encourages your audience to share more, in real-time.
In this article you'll discover three tools that pull your social conversations to a single hub.
Why Use a Social Media Hub?
Using social channels independently simply won't do the job anymore.
Social media—including your website or blog—rely on interaction, so why isolate each conversation? Bringing them together in a single place (a hub) has a bigger impact and motivates your audience to converse across platforms—carrying your message to an even wider audience.
Social hubs bring a whole new dimension to your social media marketing. You can use them for everything from displaying cross-platform updates on a big screen at a live event to embedding multiple social media timelines in your website.
Below I tell you about three tools you can use to create a social media hub for your business.
3 Social Media Tools That Help Marketers Save Time
How much of your day is spent on recurring social media activities?
Are small tasks taking up too much of your time?
When you know where tools can help you most, you can decide which tools best suit your needs.
In this article I'll address three time-consuming areas and share social media tools to help you save time.
#1: Streamline Daily Tasks
Not every task is created equal. It would be so helpful to have an organizational tool that lets you work more efficiently and effectively, wouldn't it?
HootSuite, Sprout Social and SocialFlow are all tools that fill the bill. They help you streamline some of the more basic items on your daily list so you can have more time to spend on your growing to-do list.
25 Social Media ROI Tips From the Pros
Do you struggle with establishing return-on-investment (ROI) for your social media efforts?
Are you looking for advice to help you measure your ROI?
For most businesses, being able to substantiate the allocation of resources into social media is a necessity. But it's not always easy.
We asked 25 online marketing pros to share their best ROI tips. Find out what they had to say below.
#1: Measure Your Key Performance Indicators
People who try to set revenue expectations are setting themselves up for failure because people aren't on social media to buy.
So, what should you do?
It's better to look at numbers such as engagement rate, referral traffic and audience reach.
If I'm doing app install ads through Facebook, for example, I'll measure cost per install. If I'm promoting content, I really only care about the traffic coming back to my site for branding reasons—conversions from social media content promotion are icing on the cake.
Eric Siu, founder of Growth Everywhere and COO at Single Grain, a digital marketing agency.
How to Measure Social Media ROI
Do you spend hours on your social media outreach and have no idea if it's successful?
Are your clients constantly clamoring for social proof?
If you haven't already done so, you need to find a strategy to measure your social media return on investment (ROI).
In this article I'll share tools and tips to measure the ROI of your social media efforts.
Why Measure Your ROI?
ROI is proof that your marketing efforts are working. Clients and supervisors need to know if you're successful… and you do too!
This is important for social media companies, consultants and in-house staff.
The main challenge in measuring ROI is keeping up with changes in algorithms, implementing the new tools that hit the marketplace and proving to your clients that they're getting the most out of their investment in you.
Here are five steps for your ROI measurement strategy.
#1: Set Social Media Goals
ROI can be measured in a variety of ways: through customer acquisition, lead generation, clicks, revenue, contest entries, etc. It all depends on your goals. Before you can track and measure your ROI, you need to determine your goals so you know which factors you're measuring and what success looks like.
Top 5 Metrics for Auditing Your Social Media Marketing ROI: Beyond revenue, participating in social media has many "beneficial business applications, such as facilitating customer service and boosting public relations."
Reach, traffic, leads, customers and conversion rate are the metrics Pamela Vaughan on HubSpot suggests you consider to determine social media marketing success.
4 Social Media Tools to Improve Your Social Media Marketing
Are you struggling with day-to-day social media marketing tasks?
Are you looking for tools to speed up your social tasks?
In this article, I'll share four social media tools and tips to help community managers save time, show creativity and streamline community management for their companies.
Why Social Media Tools
Community managers for organizations of all sizes are tasked to cover everything from curating content to creating it. Customer support, marketing, Vine and webinars all fall into the mix.
The sheer volume of tasks can be overwhelming. But it doesn't have to be. With just a few tools, individuals and teams can manage their responsibilities better, while presenting a successful social media presence.
Keep reading for four social media tools that will make your social media tasks much easier.
#1: Manage the Appearance of Links to Your Website With Facebook Debugger
We all know Facebook updates that include pictures and snippets of their content do unbelievably better than ones that publish bare links. We're a visual bunch, us humans.
Has this ever happened to you? You updated a page on your website with new images. Then, when you tried to publish a link to the page on Facebook, you found yourself staring at the link text for way too long.
3 Unusual Ways to Build Your Email List With Facebook Apps
Do you want more email subscribers?
How can you find a targeted audience and encourage them to join your list?
The answer is to leverage the people who already like you: your Facebook fans.
This article shows you three ways brands are using Facebook apps to grab their fans' attentions and encourage them to subscribe to their list.
Why Use Facebook to Find Email Subscribers?
Email converts new customers more effectively than any other digital medium. The key is having the right people on your list—the ones who want to hear what you have to say and are most likely to buy from you. That's where Facebook comes in.
Your Facebook fans are probably fans because they already like your products or services. That's a great start to finding a narrowly targeted audience that's likely to buy from you.
A simple lead funnel gives context to the process. By engaging with your Facebook fans, you build trust. From there, you can ask your fans to sign up for emails that share information they're interested in. With strong email and marketing tactics, you end up with sales and long-term customers.

#1: RivalIQ
Figuring out precisely what works in social media is a tricky (yet entirely necessary) proposition.
I'm always seeking to improve clicks, shares and social media engagement on my own content as well as our Convince and Convert clients' content.
Recently, I started using RivalIQ to get at what's working in social, and this easy-to-use, reasonably priced analysis platform produces a steady stream of insights while saving me a ton of time.
Here, I set up a collection of consumer products companies (RivalIQ calls them a "landscape") for a strategic plan we're building. With just a click or two, I can find the top 50 Facebook posts (by engagement rate or total engagement behaviors) among these companies over the past 7, 14, 30 or 90 days.
5 Ways to Offer Social Customer Service With Facebook
Are you answering customer concerns on Facebook?
Is offering social customer service important for your business?
Facebook is the number one social channel so it's likely to be the first line of contact for your customers, for both praise and complaints.
Answering your fans, owning up to your mistakes and keeping your fans in the loop go a long way to building trust.
Read on to discover five tips that will make you a customer-service superhero on Facebook.
#1: Answer Quickly
If you have a dedicated customer support department, the team probably has a process in place that works well in traditional channels (for example, a guarantee to respond within 24 or 48 hours).
But on Facebook (and Twitter) if you let that much time go by before responding to customer inquiries or complaints, you do so at your peril. In the social media world, two days feels like two weeks!
If you have a staff member who is monitoring your Facebook page throughout the day, it should be easy to respond to issues fairly fast. But if you're a one-person operation, and it's all up to you, you might have to set reminders to check your page a couple of times a day — first thing in the morning, early afternoon and once again in the evening.
My friends over at Post Planner do a really good job of keeping an eye on things (notice just how quickly they respond to questions).

My kids are involved in the dual language (Chinese) program at the school, which is a wonderful benefit and learning experience. The principal and teachers really do love the kids and that makes a big difference too. I don't love the year round program, but it is what it is. I give the school 2 thumbs up!

An interview with CEO Bob Beauchamp
These tips can help you save money
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
Gulfmark Offshore Inc.
) - which provides offshore oilfield services to the oil and gas
upstream firms − is set to release its second-quarter 2014
financial results after the closing bell on Jul 21.
Last quarter, the company had delivered an impressive 16.7%
positive earnings surprise. Let's see how things are shaping up for
this announcement.
Factors Likely to Influence this Quarter
The prospect of offshore oil and gas field service providers are
closely linked with the prices of crude oil and natural gas. The
favourable pricing environment of the commodities encourages
upstream companies to explore and produce more oil and natural gas,
which in turn creates demand for oilfield services.
During the second quarter, crude oil traded over the $100 per
barrel mark. This most probably gave confidence to the upstream
firms for conducting exploration and production activities and
hence created demand for oilfield services. This brought good news
for Gulfmark Offshore.
However, we don't think the pricing environment for natural gas
was much favourable. After reaching a price as high as $8.15 per
million British thermal unit level during the first quarter -
primarily due to a harsh and prolonged winter - the price of
natural gas was trading below $5.00 during the entire second
quarter. This is expected to hamper the profit margin of Gulfmark
Offshore to quite an extent. Moreover, we are also concerned about
the increasing direct operating cost of the company - which has
been growing at an increasing pace for the last two years.
Earnings Whispers?
Our proven model does not conclusively show that Gulfmark
Offshore is likely to beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate this
quarter. This is because a stock needs to have both a positive
Earnings ESP
and a Zacks Rank #1, 2 or 3 for this to happen. Unfortunately, this
is not the case here as elaborated below.
Zacks ESP:
Earnings ESP represents the difference between the Most Accurate
estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate. This leads to an ESP of
-5.21% for Gulfmark Offshore as the Most Accurate estimate stands
at 91 cents while the Zacks Consensus Estimate is pegged higher at
96 cents.
Zacks Rank:
Gulfmark Offshore has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). We caution investors
against the stock going into the earnings announcement, as a Zacks
Earnings ESP of -5.21% combined with a Zacks Rank #4 deters us from
being confident of an earnings surprise.
Stocks to Consider
Here are some companies to consider as our model shows these
have the right combination of elements to post an earnings beat
this quarter.
Swift Energy Co.
), with Earnings ESP of +150.00% and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
Clayton Williams Energy Inc.
), with Earnings ESP of +4.97% and a Zacks Rank #1.
RPC Inc.
), with Earnings ESP of +7.69% and a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

November 26, 2015
A soldier on leave from the Army is waiting to be formally charged in the accidental shooting death of a New York woman who was standing at her apartment window.
Authorities say Private Danny Carpio will be arraigned on charges of manslaughter and criminal possession of a weapon. He's accused in Wednesday night's death of Selina Akthel. Investigators say she was standing at the fifth-floor window when she was hit by a stray bullet and died instantly.
Prosecutors say Carpio had been drinking before meeting up with friends outside his Queens apartment complex and fired the gun three or four times into the air.
The victim's husband says he heard the shots, walked into the bedroom and found his wife lying in a pool of blood.
She would have turned 29 tomorrow.

Sheldon Brown over at Harris would be glad to sell you one.

I'll try and post in the marketplace forum.
I also found that Harris cyclery/sheldon brown sell a rear for about 100 bucks.
"why would you want one?"
why not?
anyhooo, i think el twe meant you can find plenty of 27" freehubs. And you certainly can. 27" trackhubs are prolly a pretty rare find.
Harris Cyclery has the wheels w/ track hubs for $100 bucks. They're good. I have one. It rolls nicely.

A wheel's going to get me focused. Must...roll!
i think bens bikes or nycbikes has them on eBay occasionally as well...though I have never worked with either of those dealers. I can recommend Harris wholeheartedly. THey got the goods.
maybe because they don't exist... what would a hub have to do with the size of the rim. you just use shorter or longer spokes (smack!)27" trackhubs are prolly a pretty rare
Frankly, building a wheel is a lot less annoying than removing a stuck or damaged part. I rebuilt my 27" wheels into fixed gear with a truing stand on my lap and Sheldon Brown's site on the computer in front of me. I think it's a useful skill to have. You can always pay a shop $15 or whatever they charge...Originally Posted by peripatetic

Sheldon Brown, I miss you. Thanks for the advice, ideas, humor, and infectious enthusiasm for everything bikes...
Huh. Okay. Well then I'll think about doing it. Maybe I just need to take all these stuck parts into a shop and have them take care of that for me. I just don't have good leverage in my tiny apt (no bench vise er nuthin'.)
Did you completely re-build, or respace/redish?
I completely rebuilt. I wanted to have a real fixed gear hub on the rear, so I got an IRO flip-flop. I got new spokes as well, DT swiss 14ga.Originally Posted by peripatetic

Susie Essman, Richard Lewis are a hit and a miss
In the eyes of any talent booker, Richard Lewis and Susie Essman would seem like a totally compatible pairing for a comedy bill. Both standups regularly appear on Larry David's HBO hit comedy "Curb Your Enthusiasm." They're the same generation (Lewis is 65, Essman 57), and their takes on their Jewish backgrounds, aging and sexuality aren't too dissimilar.
And so Lewis and Essman were brought in as co-headliners for the second annual Laugh It Up Milwaukee benefit Saturday, presented by the Bayshore Community Foundation and hosted at the Harry & Rose Samson Family Jewish Community Center in Whitefish Bay. »Read Full Article(6)

Truth, faith, hope collide in Milwaukee Rep's 'How the World Began'
You can take as gospel truth that when a high school biology teacher in rural Kansas tells a classroom of students that creationism is "gobbledygook," there's going to be an uproar.
That's not exactly what Susan Pierce said to her students, but it's close enough to offend 16-year-old Micah Staab, for whom every word in the Book of Genesis is true. The ensuing conflict propels Catherine Trieschmann's "How the World Began," the intermission-free play now being staged by the Milwaukee Repertory Theater under Brent Hazelton's direction. »Read Full Article

How to Write a Book Dedication
Vaughn Davis Bornet
Image via Shutterstock.Let's fantasize for a moment. That book draft, the one calling on you to sacrifice so much, is on the verge of being finished. Hooray! But wait: shouldn't there be a dedication -- to somebody or something? Researching and writing it was a highly personal act; nobody would blame you if you think, "The act of creation is mine -- all mine." The moment is one for euphoria! Every author owes a debt to somebody. ... If you believe the final product turned out, well, brilliantly, maybe it's dedication time.

PORTALES >> Newly released police reports say Eastern New Mexico University baseball coaches advised players not to cooperate with police trying to arrest them after a brawl
The Portales News-Tribune reports that coaches told players not to say anything until the officers produced arrest warrants in connection with an off-campus fight April 27.
Seventeen players were arrested May 3 on suspicion of disorderly conduct as a result of a fight at a Portales student housing complex.
One report says a player attempted to leave the arrest attempt and when an officer tried to restrain him, the player "lunged" at the officer. The report says the officer had to restrain him, and players and coaches alleged the officer choked the player.
The players — nearly half of the team — each posted bail after being arrested.

The Entrance Hall
As you enter The Barn the first things you will notice are the wealth of original timbers which contrast with the soft cream of the walls and the natural stone flagging of the floor. The hallway is home to a monk's bench on which you will find tourist information and our guest book. We have supplied an umbrella, walking stick and torch should you wish to borrow them during your stay. Leading from the entrance hall are The Dairy, The Stables and the wide stone stairs to the second floor.
The Lounge
At the top of the stone flagged staircase is the galleried lounge. The ceilings are high with exposed roof trusses and chandeliers. A silk sofa and two Edwardian salon chairs are provided for your comfort. There is a pedestal mahogany desk, CD mini hi-fi and leather reclining chair.

For your entertainment the lounge is equipped with free Wi-fi access, a 32" LCD TV/DVD and a Playstation 2. We also have a comprehensive library of Music, DVDs and PS2 games for those not-so-quiet evenings in.
The Kitchen
The kitchen is equipped to the highest standards with a huge range style stove, Belfast sink and stripped pine furniture. The floor has been laid in a French country style using Spanish hand made terracotta tiles inlaid with dark pine. The stripped pine table and elm kitchen chairs provide the perfect dining place. As in the lounge, the ceilings are high, with the roof trusses exposed, lit by a single wrought iron chandelier.
You will find, upon arrival, complimentary wine and "first morning" breakfast foods. We also supply some tea, coffee and sugar to allow you to unwind after your journey. You will find homemade bread and biscuits for a snack, along with fresh milk and free range eggs from the local farm. There are several dry goods including salt, pepper and herbs.

A door from the kitchen leads into the pantry.

Arrival and Departure Times
You may arrive any time after 15.00 hours at the start of your holiday. Please would you vacate The Barn by 10.00 hours on the morning of your departure.
The Hayloft
Exposed roof trusses, aged lintels and the original limestone walls combine together to give this room its appeal. This, the largest of the three double bedrooms, is a tranquil retreat. Furnished in honey pine and oak it contains a single day bed piled with cushions and an iron double bedstead. The day-bed transforms into a full sized single bed, enabling The Hayloft to become a twin room. Two wrought iron antiqued chandeliers grace the ceiling, illuminating the beams to their best effect. With a view of the River Wye and the hills beyond, there is no finer place for breakfast in bed.
The Stables
The Stables is a well proportioned double bedroom with exposed beams and lintels which add to the overall traditional effect. It is furnished with mahogany and wrought ironwork complimented by a colour scheme of soft lilacs and dusty blue. Combined with original oil paintings of the surrounding countryside, by a local artist, this room is a serene and peaceful haven.
The Dairy
The Dairy is a spacious double family bedroom which boasts an enormous bathroom. It is decorated in a crisp cream with wrought iron and stripped pine; coupled with the exposed beams it creates a stunning effect. Adding to the clean lines of this dramatic room is a bold navy print contrasting beautifully with the white bed linen and cream decor. The overall co-ordinated look is softened by the white lace at the windows and the plump cushions scattered on the double and the single day-bed. This day-bed transforms into a full sized single bed, enabling The Dairy to become a twin room.
The Bathrooms
All of the bedrooms within The Barn are en-suite. All bathrooms are fitted to the highest standards with white suites and solid wood floors. We will supply for the duration of your stay freshly laundered towels and bath mats. You will also find one toilet roll in each bathroom to tide you over until you go shopping.

The Peak District National Park region
The scenery around Millers Dale is magnificent. Along the River Wye, just downstream of The Barn, lies Water-cum-Jolly, a magnificent river gorge with fine limestone cliffs which attract many rock-climbers, bird-watchers, walkers and fishermen. Most of this dale is a National Nature Reserve and an SSI renowned for its range of rare flowers, otters and buzzards.
The Peak District is a walker's paradise. We are extremely fortunate to live in one of the many beautiful parts and within a stones throw are stunning walks by the river.
All within an easy drive are Chatsworth Stately Home, Well Dressings, Haddon Hall, Matlock Bath, restored mills, Youlgreave, Bakewell, Spa town of Buxton and the whole of The Peak District National Park on your doorstep.
Millers Dale
Alton Towers- a huge family theme park.
About 40 minutes drive from The Barn. TEL: +44 (0)8705 204060. Open late March - Admission charged.
Well Dressings in Derbyshire's Peak District:
Gulliver's Kingdom
A well-planned theme park aimed at families with younger children (this will probably be too tame for 13 and overs)
Masson Mill-Matlock Bath
The mill closed as recently as 1991 and has been converted into a shopping village, with exhibition and conference centre, but it also has a working textile museum.
Castleton Caves
Castleton has 4 underground show caves, all worth a visit, for their own interesting features. These are Blue John Cavern, Speedwell Cavern, Treak Cliff Cavern and Peak Cavern.
Granby Arcade and Bakewell Old House Museum-Bakewell
Bakewell has a wide range of shops and you will be able to find anything you need. Some of the shops are in Granby arcade which is home to a small group of gift shops out of the rain!
Haddon Hall
Haddon Hall is a fortified medieval manor house dating from the 12th Century, and is the home of Lord and Lady Edward Manners whose family have owned it since 1567. Haddon Hall is probably the finest example of a fortified medieval manor house in existence. Present-day Haddon Hall dates from the 12th Century to the early 17th Century, whereupon it lay dormant for over two hundred years from 1700 until the 1920s, when the 9th Duke and Duchess of Rutland restored the house and gardens, and once again made it habitable.
Chatsworth and Farm Shop
The home of the Dukes of Devonshire, Chatsworth is one of the true treasure houses of Britain, set in extensive parklands beside the River Derwent. Begun as an Elizabethan mansion by Bess of Hardwick, rebuilt starting in 1686. Everything is on a massive scale, opulent and designed to impress (it does). Too much art and furniture to mention Chatsworth farm shop offers everything from venison steaks and fine chocolates, to sparkling champagne and beautiful sheepskin rugs.
For more information call: +44 (0) 1246 565300
Peak Rail-Rowsley, Matlock
Peak Rail run regular Steam and Diesel hauled heritage passenger trains between Matlock Riverside and Rowsley.
Tram Museum-Crich
Nestling high up in the heart of Derbyshire overlooking the famous Derwent Valley and open almost throughout the year, Crich Tramway Village is a lovingly restored period village that is also home to the National Tramway Museum and its world renowned archives.
Caudwells Mill-Rowsley
The mill is an excellent example of a working 19th century mill, with water turbines powering the machinery.

"Luxurious in a beautiful and accessible location"
I have stayed in a lot of holiday cottages in the Peak District but none this luxurious. Most holiday cottages are furnished with old bits of furniture nobody cares about, but Ruth has filled the Barn with gorgeous things. It's like five star luxury in the Camargue or Provence and you're right in the middle of the best rock climbing areas of the Peak. The beds are so comfy. In the evenings I just lounged around on the sofa, watching dvds (there are heaps to choose from) and thinking 'I can't believe I'm in this amazing place'. I was totally pampered on my stay by Ruth, there was a free wine, fresh bread and the marmalade was great. The Barn is right on the Monsal Trail, and there are bikes you can take up the bike path. Chee Dale gets my vote as the best of the Derby Dales and it literally starts on your doorstep. Big garden too, and spotlessly clean. Very quiet. Can't wait to go there again.
Dear Guest It was a pleasure to meet you and the other guests in your party. Thank you for all your honest comments and delightful review of The Barn. We hope to welcome you back to Millers Dale in the future. Warm regards Ruth and family

Doomsday in August!
August 8, 2015
Today, August 8, 2015, is August's "Doomsday" — and it's a Saturday.
What does this mean?
Well, August is the 8th month, and it just so happens that the 8th day of the 8th month is always a Doomsday. So 2015's Doomsday day of the week is Saturday.
The neat part is, this works for 4/4, 6/6, 8/8, 10/10, and 12/12, i.e. April 4, June 6, August 8, October 10, and December 12 — all of these are Saturday this year
Check the Doomsday Algorithm page to find out why it's called "Doomsday" and to get complete details of how to do the Doomsday calculation for the day of the week for any date -- in your head!
Bonus! New Link!
A wonderful new article about John Horton Conway has been published (and the link has been added to the Doomsday Links page).
Here's the link: John Horton Conway: the world's most charismatic mathematician.
