They Grambys dream
- From: "Granby" <spaz@xxxxxxxxx>

I dreamed this and asked Lee if I could post. I had to change it from
meowchat so those who are less...unable to tolerate meowchat could read it;
A porter twinkles at Auntie Softs house and out steps O T with a basket of
food for the family. Piglett sent this food for u guys.
He notices Trudi is busy writing in a notebook and drawing diagrams. He goes
to her ask asks what she is doing.
Trudi: Well, this is a especially vulnerable time for this house. There iz
this big hole in our humans hearts since T V went to the bridge. She jumps
up in the middle of the table, she is allowed to do this as there is no
human food on it at this time.
Trudi: Ok u cats, I got it all figured out come on and get your assignments.
The other six cats come running and jump up on the table and some of the
Trudi: Now,this is the plan. Barbi, you an MH have the big sliding door. One
of each side of it.
OEJ. U have the cat tree by the front window.
Tiger, u have the window in the bedroom.
Chester, u guard the front door.
Stormmee, U have the most important job, u have to keep Furry from looking
out of any of the windows. U have to be sure the ballgame is loud enough on
the talkie box that Soft can not hear noises from the out.
O T admires all this organization but just has to ask what it is all about.
Trudi closes her notebook and explains.
We have to keep watch as this is the time when some cat from the OUT mite
try and move to the IN. We have ta keep a sharp watch to be sure they don't
get this done.

So Reaper has just launched a new line of plastic minis:
Handy little video there on the first page.
The sculpts are the same as from their pre-painted Legendary Encounters range, which in turn are the same as the metal Dark Heaven Legends/Warlord sculpts.
Apparently they're ready to paint straight out of the blister with no primer, which is interesting. Oh, and they're also REALLY REALLY CHEAP. Like, $2 each for characters. And at $3.50ish for the six pack of Kobolds, I might be starting a Kobold army very soon.
Hope this takes off well, they look set to put Finecast thoroughly to shame.

I am a self-taught software engineer who is finally getting back into math. So this is a basic question.
The following expression:
$-4(3w-u)-6(-4u-4w)$ confuses me. As I do not know why I should not solve it by SUBTRACTING $-4(3w-u)$ from the result of $6(-4u-4w)$. However, the question was answered as if the minus sign was ignored and instead became :
$$-4(3w-u)+ (-6(-4u-4w))$$
What am I not understanding. Thanks for your help.

In the early morning hours of July 24, 8 days, 3 hours, 18 minutes, and 18 seconds after leaving Kennedy Space Center, Columbia plopped down into the Pacific Ocean about 200 nautical miles (370 kilometers) south of Johnston Island. Recovery crews from the U.S.S. Hornet arrived quickly and tossed the biological isolation garments into the spacecraft. After the cocooned astronauts emerged from the spacecraft the swimmers swabbed the hatch down with Betadine (an organic iodine solution); then astronauts and recovery personnel decontaminated each other's protective garments with sodium hypochlorite solution. The biological isolation garments were not uncomfortable in the recovery raft, but aboard the helicopter they began accumulating heat. Both Collins and Armstrong felt that they were approaching the limit of their tolerance by the time they reached the ship. An hour after splashdown they were inside the mobile quarantine facility. As soon as they had changed into clean flight suits, the astronauts went to the large window at the rear end of the mobile quarantine facility to accept the nation's congratulations from President Nixon, who had flown out to the Hornet to meet them.
Meanwhile, recovery crews brought Columbia on board and connected it to the astronauts' temporary home by means of a plastic tunnel. Through this, the film magazines and sample return containers were taken into the quarantine trailer, then passed out through a decontamination lock. Sample return container no. 2, holding the documented sample, was packed in a shipping container along with film magazines and tape recorders and flown to Johnston Island, where it was immediately loaded aboard a C-141 aircraft and dispatched to Ellington Air Force Base near MSC. Six and a half hours later the other sample return container was flown to Hickam Air Force Base, Hawaii, and thence to Houston.

I can't stop gambling!
|Watch this
|View More Posts Ignore
I'm not sure where to begin, My gambling has destroyed my life. I declared bankruptcy several years ago after taking several thousand dollars in cash out of credit cards to gamble with. My parents died 5 years ago and left me about 80,000 now its gone. I went to the casino last night at 7PM and left this morning at 7:30 AM lost another 1000. I feel sick! But in a day or two I will feel better and find myself at the casino again. Im wondering if I will be able to pay my house payment this month. I hate myself after a night of gambling but can't stop. I always say "that was the last time" but it never is. I really don't have anyone to turn to. It is effecting my work and my health. I sort of just curl up for a day and hide for awhile untill I feel better. I wish casinos were never allowed here. I know it's my fault and my responsibility, I just want my life back. This is hard for me, I never ask for help. I honestly don't know what to do. I have shut most people out of my life and have hidden this problem from everyone. Please tell me how to start stopping, where to begin. Thank You

Hi Arlene, welcome to DS. You will find a lot of support here. Everyone's walk may be different, but the monster (as a DS friend calls it) is still the same and the way out is the same. One day at a time.
Those in recovery from gambling (or any addiction) start with these three:
1. Admitted we were powerless over gambling - that our lives had become unmanageable.
2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to a normal way of thinking and living.
3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of this Power of our own understanding.
Come here daily. Read others journals. Journal here. DS site is full of people who are walking a Gamble Free life today because of the above three steps. It can be done. No doubt. It is worth doing. You are worth it.
Check out the meeting directory for Gamblers Anonymous meetings in your area:
In numbers strength and support can be found.
Life is not meant to be destructive, it is meant to live. The monster can be shaken.
Be well... One day at a time, debs

Hi Arlen,
Coming here and asking for help is a good. The first step is admitting you are POWERLESS over gambling. I've done everything you have and much more. I'm 49 and started gambling with my father when I was about 8...betting horses. From there it was playing cards, sports betting, daily numbers, scratch tickets, Atlantic City. My demise came when they opened the casinos in CT. They destroyed me...financially, emotionally, morally. I've done bankcruptcy, re-financed our home, loans, cash advances, bad checks. After 17 years married, my husband finally left in 2007. I continued to gamble. Lost my home, jobs, family, friends.
I continued to gamble. I finally began committing crimes, was arrested. I continued to gamble. I bounced in and out of G.A. for many years. Usually only going to make everyone else happy. FINALLY, on Jan. 31, 2010, I decided "FOR ME"...I no longer wanted to live this way. I immediately returned to the G.A. rooms and have been going 6 days week since. They are what has been saving me from this baffling, insidious disease.
I could share a lot more with you but for now I just want you to know...you NEED to get to a G.A. meeting. (if there available near you) If not, there are gambling hotlines and many good websites. Just Google, Compulsive Gambling/Gambling Addiction. I'm available to help any way I can. Feel free to email me at: email@example.com
"A Day at a Time" is how you do it. Many times it'sminute by minute. Hugs and prayers for you. Debbie

Hi Arlen, mine is a very long story but, let me assure, friends and family will come back into your life when you are ready. Sometimes, they even come back too often and for too long. As for myself, i changed my friends and my idea of family was redifined. My G.A. group, aside from my son who I'll love always, is my family. I used to gamble for days and nights without eating. Stomach acid was so bad, I threw-up in the lounges hallways every hour or so and then I returned to gambling as always. I commited six armed robberies and ended up in jail. While I waited in jail for my sentence, I finally decided to surrender to my higher power. It had worked for others so, I thought it might work for me. And it did. I made my peace with God while reading the story of someone who had been in the same position as me. My Ego, which had been huge, had finally taken a good beating. I was released into house arrest and realized that when I asked for help, there were plenty of people ready and capable to do so. But, people help would'nt have been enough had I not felt that God loved me, and that He had forgiven me. At that point, His love for me made me realize that it really didn't matter who had loved me before and who hadn't. I also realized, that, when I was ready, God sent people for me. These were my psychologist and the G.A people. Many people told me that they would never go as far down as me, but everyone, if they gambled long enough. If you want to know, let me know. Recovery has been a lot of work, but now I have self-esteem and confidence that I can deal with life without resorting to gambling. Thanks to my Higher Power and my G. A., the last day I gambled was more than seven and a half years ago. I sincerely wish you all the best.

Hello Arlene. Quitting is something that came to me seven years ago, now I have struggled the last 2 years once again but am now almost a month free without the urge (praise God!) and just need to take everything one day at a time.
A few things that have helped me though is number one, I have to remember that when I gamble God is angry with me. I'm hurting myself, my family, and the people around me at the casino, encouraging them through my play, my wins, trying to win their losses. God is the most important thing to me, so knowing that it angers Him helps me to rethink. I don't want to anger someone I love so much. Yes, He forgives me, but we can't fool ourselves and think we can continue the cycle of disobedience and forgiveness. There has to be a breaking point.
Pray, Pray, Pray... God is there for us. I've prayed through the last 2 years for Him to help me stop. He gave me the will, the tools, the ability to turn away, I just wasn't ready. That's the first most important thing we have to admit to ourselves, are we REALLY ready to give it up 100%. Until that answer is yes, everything we try ends up being in vain.
My prayers for your insanity to stop, your common sense to kick in and take over, and peace in your heart that you can let the past go and become a new creation. You can do it! We're here rooting for you! God Bless!

Steep and deep? No problem.
Louis Garneau designed its Men's Blizzard Snowshoe for steep ascents so you can get to the summit and back before dinner. Its sturdy Contour frame keeps you light on your feet so you can cover miles faster, and its optimized surface area and easy snow-shedding ability give you a natural stride in deep powder.
The Freeflex pivot provides excellent shock absorption and free foot rotation on the axle for an efficient stride. Traxion HCS carbon steel front crampons offer multidirectional traction for reliable traction on everything from powdery approaches to icy steeps. The Contact harness system utilizes Boa technology to helps you lock in the perfect fit with the twist of a dial so you don't have to deal with pesky straps, and it cinches across any shoe whether its a hiking boot or a snowboard boot. Louis Garneau added EVA padding to prevent any discomfort during all-day excursions.
Lightec decking remains flexible in temperatures as low as -40F for ideal performance regardless of the weather, and the Connect fastener system attaches the deck to the frame to enhance durability and boost the snowshoe's lateral traction over uneven terrain. The Gradient heel riser reduces the distance of each step to minimize calf fatigue when you're climbing steep slopes.

Louis Garneau Blizzard II Snowshoe - Men's
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I am pretty stoked that I made the right choice in buying these bad boys! I am a bigger dude 230lbs. so I went with the Size 10x36. I feel that I should have gone with the suggested 9x30 for my weight, but they were out of stock. These things crush!!!!!! They crush hills with the Heel risers and running down hill in the Powder makes me giggle like a school girl. They are super light. My wife has some Tubbs in 22 in. and they are hevier than my 36 in Blizzards II. The Boa system is awesome and fast!! Just writing about the Louis Garneau Blizzard II Snowshoe - Men's makes me want to get out and explore. if you are thinking about buying, Do it!!! Worth every penny!

Live review: AmericanaramA Festival of Music featuring Bob Dylan, Wilco, My Morning Jacket and Bob Weir at Aaron's Amphitheatre at Lakewood in Atlanta, 6/29/13
When Bob Dylan calls and invites you on his AmericanaramA tour, you don't say no, as was the case with the above mentioned acts. Call it the anti-Warped Tour, if you must, but this was quite a line-up for any fest anywhere and fans of all ages and interests came out to see it. A legend such as Bob Dylan was more than likely checked off the bucket list of many music lovers this weekend.
Grateful Dead founding member Bob Weir got the festivities started as he strummed through a nice acoustic set. The venue was getting full and hundreds were crammed into the pit even for this early start time of 5:30. At 65 years of age, Weir still seems to have the vim and vigor of a much younger rocker. Weir ended his set with a sweet cover of Delbert McClinton's "Standing On Shaky Ground," proving that even seasoned veterans appreciate the music of their fellow artists.
Set list: Hell In A Bucket, When I Paint My Masterpiece, Playin' In The Band, Twilight Time, The Other One / Standing On Shaky Ground
Louisville, Kentucky's My Morning Jacket turned out to be the energetic standout of the day with a scorching set. "The Dark," from their first album The Tennessee Fire (1999), launched the set. Jim James was his usual heroic self with a voice that seemingly hits all octaves. The majority of song selections were from Z (2005) and Circuital (2011). James exuded positive vibes as he sang "Wonderful (The Way I Feel)" with that near-angelic voice. Donning his magic blue cape for some songs, James did appear to be a super hero and the crowd rose to the occasion, almost expecting him to fly from the stage over the crowd.
The music of this massively talented quintet has earned many labels, including psychedelic rock. That's fitting, especially with the band's recent appearance on CBS Sunday Morning, in which they described their musical style as "hairy." Indeed. For the casual observer, it may appear that these guys are straight out of the 70s, with the long beards and longer hair. But seeing MMJ live is as fresh, relevant and sonically brilliant as anything out there in 2013.
It was apparent that James was loving the whole thing when he said, "Beautiful Hotlanta! Is there any place more beautiful on earth than Atlanta in the summertime? So blessed to be here." Halfway through the set, Weir joined MMJ for a nice rendition of the Dead's "I Know You Rider."
Set list: The Dark, It Beats 4 U, Gideon, Wordless Chorus, Phone Went West, Wonderful (The Way I Feel), I Know You Rider (with Bob Weir), Circuital, Victory Dance, One Big Holiday
Chicago outfit Wilco kicked off their set with "Airline To Heaven," from the 2000 release Mermaid Avenue II (with Billy Bragg). It was a well-done set which seemed more tailored to the AmericanaramA Fest and not as rocking as the typical Wilco show. Bob Weir joined the band onstage for a couple songs. One of the night's highlights was performed when they broke into "California Stars (the Wilco/Billy Bragg joint from the first Mermaid Avenue album) which morphed – to the elation of Dead fans – into "Dark Star." After this rousing experience, Tweedy exclaimed, "Wow. I didn't see that coming." A nearby fan in a bright, tie-dyed t-shirt said, "I don't think a lot of people realized what they just saw." This was the biggest audience reaction from Wilco's entire set.
Set list: Airline To Heaven, When The Roses Bloom Again, Shouldn't Be Ashamed, You Are My Face, One Sunday Morning, Art Of Almost, California Stars / Dark Star (with Bob Weir), I'm Always In Love, Heavy Metal Drummer, Dawned On Me, Monday, Outtasite (Outta Mind)
Bob Dylan is a man of few words. So few, in fact, that he spoke nary a one to the thousands of fans. Instead, he let his music do the talking as he powered through a set of music mostly fueled by his incredible back-up band, known on the playbill only as "His Band." Although Dylan shied away from his biggest and most well-known songs (What, no "Blowin' In The Wind," "Like A Rolling Stone," "Subterranean Homesick Blues," "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" or "Mr. Tambourine Man" at all?), he did give some other gems known very well by his fans. At this point in the life of such an icon, the songs he sings may just materialize to please him and no one else.
The stage was darkly lit, with most of the light coming from huge lanterns one each side of the stage sporting real flames and – much to the dismay of fans furthest away – there were no video screens. It was as if Dylan created the atmosphere of an intimate club gig, but for a few thousand people. Nevertheless, this event was more than likely checked off the bucket list of many in attendance.
The 72-year-old singer/songwriter (born Robert Allen Zimmerman) played a host of songs ranging from his early sixties work up to 2012's Tempest. Known for his mumbling lyrics, there were times when Dylan's vocals seemed buried under the tight band, but much of that could be attributed to the less-than-stellar acoustics of Lakewood Amphitheatre.
The Dylan mystique, however, remains intact as he rolls on down the road with his AmericanaramA Festival of Music. America's voice of a generation, the man that contributed a large part to the folk music revolution and emphasized personal political action is going stronger than ever.
Set list: Things Have Changed, Love Sick, High Water (For Charley Patton), Soon After Midnight, Early Roman Kings, Tangled Up In Blue, Duquesne Whistle, She Belongs To Me, Beyond Here Lies Nothin', A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall, Blind Willie McTell, Simple Twist Of Fate, Summer Days, All Along The Watchtower, Ballad Of A Thin Man

Matildas lose to Japan 1-0 in AFC final
Japan demonstrated why they are one of the world's top football teams, defeating Australia in the AFC Women's Asian Cup final on Sunday evening.
Japan took the lead in the first-half of the match and although the Aussies dominated in the second half, they weren't able to score a goal in order to force the game into extra time.
With a little over 12 months until the World Cup finals in Canada, Australia will use the lessons they have learnt from the tournament in Vietnam to improve.
"Hopefully by the time we reach the World Cup next year we can improve that little bit more in our execution and beat those big countries," interim Matildas head coach Alen Stajcic said.

Patterns Are All Around Us
Second graders theme for the year is
They will study healthy eating habits and how to stay fit and healthy. Is there a pattern found here? Perhaps they will feel better and perform better in school if eating habits follow the
My Plate
guidelines. Perhaps they will feel better and perform better if there is increased fitness and healthier hygene habits. A pattern is starting here! While children are learning these lifelong skills they will be thinking about how they can provide a service for their local community. In the past, children have grown tomato plants from seed and sold the seedlings to raise money for A.F.A.C., our local food bank. Children have also hosted a Healthy Choices Food Drive to provide the food bank with healthy items for their shelves. Providing students with curriculum and an opportunity to tie their knowledge to a service project enables them to make real-world connections to last a lifetime.
Not only will students discover patterns in their health unit they work on patterns in other subject areas while spending time in the Outdoor Classroom, otherwise known as The Habitat. Here children will look for patterns in the natural world. These can range from the patterns found in birdnests, to patterns in clouds, to patterns on leaves!

On the UK Tour, does anyone think that there could be a chance of a special show like the HOB which was for LPU members only? Or no?
On the UK Tour, does anyone think that there could be a chance of a special show like the HOB which was for LPU members only? Or no?
The UK tour?? Are you talking hypothetically or has something been announced that I don't know about? !
same here. there's talk of a UK tour but no confirmed dates as of yet I believe
Castle of Glass
next month or two?
I'm excited!
I held off booking my holiday waiting for dates but couldn't wait any longer.... I just know it's going to be first week in October that they tour!!
Hope they come to Birmingham! I'm so going to be there!
I hope they play Newcastle again - I don't really fancy the drive over to Sheffield or Manchester all that much!
Just as long as they go north of London.... I can't afford to go to London again - hotel costs down there kill me!
I hope they come to the M.E.N again.
No, it hasn't been announced but probably will be soon, i was just making guesses.. Hope they play somewhere like the O2!
PLEASE Linkin Park, please, I'm begging you! I'll kneel if I have too!
I'm one of your biggest fans, you'd make my, well year.
Oh if you could play at the O2 again, well you'd make this dude mega happy. Hell I'll happily buy your album 4 times if I have too.

Insanity is freedom
"There is no sanity clause! So when you find yourself locked onto an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember theres always madness. Madness is the emergency exit you can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened. You can lock them away forever.
That's Dark huh?
Guys, calm down. Im 100% sure that there will be a UK Tour.
But in the end we were meant to be apart, like separate chambers of the human heart...

Madison Square Garden will be the site for one of the most highly anticipated fights of the year as Miguel Cotto battles Sergio Martinez tonight on HBO/Top Rank pay-per-view. According to a June 7 SBN report, TV start times and live streaming (online) schedule for tonight's boxing fights are now available.
Scott Christ's report indicates that the four fight on tonight's Cotto vs. Martinez main card go as follows (All Eastern Times): Andy Lee vs. John Jackson (9 p.m.), Jorge Melendez vs. Javier Maciel (10 p.m.), Wilfredo Vazquez Jr vs. Marvin Sonsona (11 p.m.) and Miguel "Junito" Cotto vs. Sergio "Maravilla" Martinez (Midnight). TV coverage gets underway with "Countdown to Boxing: Cotto/Martinez" at 8:30 p.m. ET (DirecTV channel 123-124).
For Miguel Cotto, tonight's fight will offer him the opportunity to become the first Puerto Rican fighter to win titles in four different weight classes. In addition, this will be a big payday for the 33-year-old Boricua, as he's guaranteed $7 million compared to Martinez's $1.5 million (plus PPV upside) deal.
For the 39-year-old southpaw, the Argentine is healthy and in the best shape of his life coming into this fight. "Maravilla" suffered a broken hand and torn ligaments during his win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., but was able to shake off the ring rust with a unanimous decision win over Martin Murray last April in Buenos Aires.
As far as tonight's showdown is concerned, this is sure to be one of, if not the most fan-friendly fight of the year. The clash between Miguel Cotto and Sergio Maravilla is a matchup made in boxing heaven.
Watch Cotto and Martinez go to war in what is sure to be fireworks inside the square-circle this evening. Tune to HBO/Top Rank PPV (via DirecTV channels 123 and 124), or click here to watch the boxing live stream feed online.

PRESS RELEASE: Direct from Family Services, Inc.
NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. - Family Services, Inc. (FSI) announced that it has received a $273,420 contract to help support South Carolina foreclosure prevention counseling efforts. This desperately needed boost will enable FSI's housing counseling division, the Homeownership Resource Center (HRC), to provide free mortgage mitigation and modification services to help homeowners and landlords at risk of default and foreclosure.
"Our goal is to reach any South Carolina homeowner having trouble making their mortgage payment, facing default, or at potential risk of foreclosure," quotes the HRC Director Debbie Kidd. "This includes primary homeowners, investment property owners, as well as the unemployed, underemployed, and those who are unable to return to work because of a medical condition."
HRC's licensed foreclosure prevention counselors advocate for each case with the goal of a loan modification and/or cash assistance to bring the mortgage current. "We want homeowners to know that we are here and working hard to advocate for them," Kidd said. "We know the stress involved, and we are here to help-for free."
The funds to support FSI's foreclosure prevention counseling efforts will be provided by the National Foreclosure Mitigation Counseling Program (NFMC). The NFMC Program is administered through a competitive application process by NeighborWorks® America, within guidelines defined by Congressional legislation. The funding will be disbursed to FSI based on verifiable levels of counseling provided to homeowners.
"The NFMC funding is vital to support our foreclosure prevention services," Kidd said. "With this contract, we have the capacity to help thousands of homeowners at risk of losing their home. Sixty percent of homeowners lose their homes unnecessarily-but we can change that and we are changing that. We urge homeowners to call and learn about this free program to help modify or mitigate their mortgage" Family Services, Inc.'s HRC has counseled more than 13,000 individuals and saved nearly 4,000 homes since bringing the NFMC program to South Carolina in 2008.
Much has been written in recent months about a rebound in the housing market. However, the truth is not all communities are bouncing back at the same rate, and thousands of homeowners are still struggling and facing default and foreclosure. According to RealtyTrac.com, the foreclosure rate in South Carolina is currently 1 in every 409 homes; Dorchester, Berkeley, York, Beaufort, and Spartanburg Counties fare the worst in our state. Dorchester's rate is 1 in every 269 and Berkeley is 1 in every 391 homes. In March 2013, the number of properties that received a foreclosure filing in SC was 10 percent higher than the previous month. FSI is providing free counseling to help homeowners at risk of becoming one of these statistics.
Homeowners can access FSI's services in-person, via phone, and/or online. For more information about FSI's foreclosure prevention program, please contact the organization at 843.735.5522 or visit www.fsisc.org.

Cranberry Orange Scones
Raise your hand if you wish every week was only 3 days. If you are not raising your hand, then you must be on something.
Now that Thanksgiving is over, it's time to shop for gifts. Raise your hand if you want to do my Christmas shopping for me. I will love you forever. If I can't do it online, I get angry. I'm like a grumpy old lady in the mall this time of year, so watch out!
Raise your hand if stuffed yourself silly last week. It's time to lighten up a little bit. You know, for at least a few days before all that holiday baking and parties start. I promise to stop making you raise your hand now. But, hey, at least I gave you a little arm workout, no? You're welcome.
Cranberry and orange are one of my favorite flavor combos, especially this time of year. I usually just make a whole lot of cranberry orange bread, but I went for a scone this time. Greek yogurt helps to cut the fat and adds a nice tang to these scrumptious scones and I feel much less guilty about eating these for breakfast compared to more sweet and buttery sweet breads.
Cranberry Orange Scones

Breakfast for life right here my friend :)

I'm raising my hand & wishing I had one of these scones in it :-)
Definitely raising my hand for that first one. I dearly wish this was a 3 day week…*sigh*
Ok I have got to get back on the scone wagon..I fell off sometime last year and I miss it! Your scones look fabulous and I desperately want to make some cranberry ones!
I've yet to make a scone. I really need to get on that.
Oh, boy, do these look wonderful! I love cranberry orange quick bread, and so glad to use these same delicious flavors in a yummy scone! What a delightful way to start the day!
I think I could even cope with a four-day work week (I worked on Friday). Wow, these look fabulous–the Greek yogurt is a nice touch!
Fabulous recipe! I love that there isn't to much sugar in ti!! If I made this tonight, do you think it will be ok tomorrow morning?
Hey Jennifer, they should be okay the next morning. I would just store them in an airtight container. Since the fat content is so low, they could dry out.
cranberry orange is my favorite flavor in muffins & scones!! this is great, especially with that Greek yogurt!!
Can I move in with you? These scones look like they need to get to know me better.
I love cranberry orange, and I love scones even more. These are perfect! And I would totally do your Christmas shopping for you :)
These scones look amazing and love the flavors of orange and cranberry together. PS… I was totally raising my hand for a 3 day week. :)
I am trying to make scones more often. I do like the combo of cranberries and orange. My mom makes a bread each Christmas. Your scones are beautiful. Love the sugar on top.
Can I use dry cranberries? That's all I have. These look yum and no eggs!!!
Of course, Roma!
I love scones, but have yet to make them with greek yogurt…love this idea! I'm with you on three day weeks. I'm pretty sure I could get all my shopping done with the extra time :)
Nice! Definitely one of my favorite flavor combinations!
These look so sunny and delightful! I love the brightness of the orange + cranberries =)
I raised my hand for all but 2 – can't do the christmas shopping. I hate shopping malls – enter amazon prime – a god send!
Love these scones btw. I just made a cranberry orange bread and the flavor combo is amazing. Want to trade? :)
I literally JUST had an orange cranberry scone for breakfast yesterday!!!! Now I am wishing I had made my own b/c these just seem so much better. I love love love shopping for gifts but this year – i just want to stay inside and avoid the crowds! I did get some done last weekend though, which felt nice!
I bet the combination of cranberry and orange tastes heavenly! So light and bright. Perfect for this Holiday season, yum!
I just bought cranberries and an orange today!
I love orange and cranberry together. Even made scones a while back with them. Will have to try your version as well. Thanks for sharing.
p.s. I'm all for 3 day-week. sign me up!
I'm down for anything that utilizes the cranberry orange combo. These scones look yummy. Oh, and I'm stuffed to the gills with turkey. I don't even want to think about eating anymore turkey.
Made these Thanksgiving morning for breakfast and they were lovely! Only head a tangarine on hand so I did part tangarine zest, part lemon. I also chopped the frozen cranberries up a bit. They looked and tasted wonderful! Not too sweet :)
So glad you enjoyed them!

A Letter From Governor Rick Perry
I wrote a letter to Texas Governor Rick Perry asking him, simply, what made him feel like he (and the rest of his party) had jurisdiction over the female body. I was genuinely interested in hearing his response. Thankfully, he replied back almost immediately.
Here's my response from Governor Rick Perry.

Kids all over the nation are heading back to school today and picking up their school books from their teachers. And let's face it, they're pretty boring to look at. If you are like I was in high school, you'll likely want to doodle on your book, or cover it up so that you don't get fined for damage at the end of the year. Making brown bag book covers is a craft that goes back to when our parents were in school. This is a craft they should definitely be able to help with if you need it.
You Need:
- 1 text book
- 1 brown paper bag
- Scissors
- Items to decorate with
This will cover one book per paper bag.
- Open up the bag by cutting down one seam. Cut off the bag bottom so that you are left with one large piece of brown paper.
- Lay your book in the center of the paper. Fold the top and bottom of the paper down so that it is flush with the size of your text book. A standard text book should give you about 2-4 inches on the top and bottom.
- Lay the book back into the center of the paper bag. Fold the paper bag over so that both covers and spine are covered up and the paper ends match up.
- Fold the ends in so that they create a pocket for the covers to insert into. Once the folds are made, tuck the book covers into them.
- Decorate the book as you like using markers, glitter, felt, or other things that you have to decorate with.
Make one for each book to protect them throughout the school year. If you don't want to use plain brown bag paper, then you can also use wrapping paper or the Sunday comics to really distinguish your books.

Beautiful car, Beautiful experience
by Infiniti g25 lover from Fairfield, CT | November 6, 2014
If you are seeking a new car, I highly recommend going to George Harte Infiniti in West Haven, CT and requesting to see Mr. Matt Frattaroli. Matt displayed complete dedication and honesty through each and every step, and followed through with each and every promise made. It is rare to find such a knowledgeable, genuine and personable car sales consultant. I couldn't have had a better experience. Love yours truly, a proud new owner of an Infiniti g25 :)

Fourth Infiniti
by Blunschi from Lake Bridge LA | October 6, 2013
The G25 is a great car one of my favorite Infinitis besides owned a Q45, 130, 135 and a certified G25 i like this one a lot it's more for the money. This car is stock with a manual trans from great performance without noticing shift shocking just a smooth acceleration under the engine power. It's also a gas miser as i'm getting 25 city-29 mpg hwy with a single tank of fuel best for a Infiniti. To say it was a pre owned certified car got all the bells and whistles from a more advanced nav system, dual climate controlling and seats are the same as switching to cool for hottest days in the summer and heated for those cold winter days for a nice seat warming. Bluetooth is plus as can program my iPhone with the settings as not frustrating when speaking to the voice command just crystal clear as saving my address book of calls i setup right inside the display wish car has available dual moonroofs and remote starter otherwise i love the car a lot from the best performance and top driving handling has for 2 yr/certified car as the Infiniti G25 sedan a beautiful car. Maintenance isn't that expensive as expecting for a high end car as the Infiniti which the repairs and oil changes would be too expensive but for a oil change is $15.66 as have it serviced at a Nissan dealer so probably that's why at a cheaper dealer with the same platform name. We keep it until it dies with checking all fluids and oil changes as followed my maintenance guide it's the best car ever owned and more comfortable than any Infiniti i owned the best car on the road.

Good Value and Tremendous Handling
by Leo from Kansas City, MO | January 7, 2013
I have had the G25x now for a couple of months and I must say that I love it more every time I drive. I just got back from a 450 mile trip driving 70 mph all the way and the car got 27.7 mpg. The seats are extremely confortable and non fatiguing in 3+ hour stretches. At highway speed the car is very smooth and the V6 noise is very subdued with very tight effortless steering and handling. This is certainly a drivers car and in my opnion it will handle and corner with the best that the BMW 3 Series can offer. The V6 loves to rev and is certainly willing to be pushed if you feel the need. Around town the car is a bit more timid but I tend to drive the 7-speed auto in the Sport mode which gives the car a bit more snap shifting in higher rpms. One cannot go wrong with this car if you are looking for a sports sedan with plenty of value.

not bad
by kg3000 from Royal Oak, MI | February 2, 2012
I got this as an everyday car, my other car is the new Jag so this is a pretty big downgrade compared to that. Exterior, its nice, nothing great, but nice, its what you would expect from an entry level luxury car. Interior, same as the interior, pretty generic, the dash and seats are made of decent materials. Seats are pretty comfortable, and the heated seats come on pretty quickly. My version has the touch screen, but I did not get the navigation because his is just a car I use to get to work and back, the touch screen has no lag, and its easy to use. Performance, its slow and inefficient. I was really surprised to see that it only got 20mpg and that is on a good day. I would have liked to see it get closer to 30, but still its not that bad. The AWD makes up for the bad gas milage and its the main reason I got this car. The AWD is not as great as the Lexus GS350, but still great, I have had no problems getting around in the Michigan winter. Overall its a good car, its entry level, so you get what you pay for. I am not I would get it again, if I am sacrificing power I would at least like to get some better gas mileage, but if you just looking for a nice reliable car that does great in the winter this is the car for you.

Excellent car, know its limitations
by fast gal from Chicago, Illinis | August 3, 2011
I purchased the G25x after my BMW 325ix died in January. So this is based on 6 months of use in all conditions. Overall I really love this car, but want to point out some issues another person might or might not consider relevant. Traction - Beyond belief the best of the cars I test drove and light years ahead of my 325ix. I bought in winter and compared to the AWD Lexus and Mercedes far superior in snow and ice. If you live where there is snow and have to drive in it, this is the car for you. Interior, the interior is spacious and comfortable for long trips. Space is adequate for all. Heat and air conditioning perform well. Backup camera. I thought I found nervana with our Volvos backup beeps, the 180 degree camera will be on every car I ever own. My only two issues with the car is when I bought it, there was snow on the ground so that limited my ability to really get it to speed. I went with the smaller engine for the gas mileage, which has been mixed: highway at 55 mph can be over 32 mpg, but city mileage is worse than the BMW which had a bigger engine, the car is just too heavy for the stop and go routine in city traffic and forget traffic garage ramps, I think I need to get out and push. Also, the acceleration is limited, so if you really need to get up to speed to get in front of that truck, you might be getting nervous and forget getting around that milk truck going 50 on the two lane country road. Audio: The sound is better than our Volvo and comparable to my BMW. The XM interface is easier to use than our Volvos but note that it does not have the music box the G35 has, the dealer told me there was one, after a week with the car and I could not figure out how to get my music on, oh no no music box. Just plug in your ipod, I really do not like leaving an ipod in the car or having to look down to adjust my music in my lap. If I knew about this I would have gone with the G35 since much of my driving in in winter alone, so I like my music. Overall I would recommend this car, for the traction performance, comfort and price. The low interest financing really made it a good deal. If I had to do it over, I would still get the Infiniti, but the 35 for the acceleration and music box.

Fun to drive 4-door
by Joel from Chicago, IL | June 6, 2011
Sufficient, though not massive, power from the 218 hp engine. Accelerates briskly, especially in DS or manual mode, but not a land rocket like the G37. EPA rates it only a mile or two per gallon better in fuel economy, but in real life driving I am getting around 24 mpg in the suburbs, while my friends with G37's get around 16-17 mpg. So we are talking around a 7-8 mpg improvement over the G37, which is like a 40-50% improvement. Handles and corners beautifully and is the first car I have owned that is actually fun to drive. Interior and exterior are classy and well designed. Base stereo is fine, don't understand unavailability of Bose upgrade and Navi system. Seats are very comfortable.

This car is excellent!
by Dena Girl from Honolulu, Hawaii | January 26, 2011
I just sold my 350Z and I loved that car, but I'm not giving up anything by owning the Infiniti G25. It's got alot of power and it provides alot more space. I was worried about the feel of the drive, but no worries there either because it handles the roads exceptionally well. The interior and exterior styling is just beautiful.

Some background is in order: 0oS Clan ignores the most basic ground rule of debate. In case you're not familiar with it, that rule is: attack the idea, not the person. I must ask that 0oS Clan's legates develop an alternative community, a cohesive and comprehensive underground with a charter to nourish children with good morals and self-esteem. I know they'll never do that, so here's an alternate proposal: They should, at the very least, back off and quit trying to put the prisoners in charge of running the prison. 0oS Clan says it's going to create a mass psychology of fear about an imminent terrorist threat some day. Is it out of its rash mind? The answer is fairly obvious when you consider that if I hear its attendants say, "0oS Clan's objectives prevent smallpox" one more time, I'm going to throw up. After all, everything I've said so far is by way of introduction to the key point I want to make in this letter. My key point is that the disingenuous nature of 0oS Clan's teachings distracts us from the real lessons we could learn from a rigorous critique of its accusations. Now that that's cleared up, I'll continue with what I was saying before, that its grievances are based on a technique I'm sure you've heard of. It's called "lying". Finally, whatever your thoughts or feelings about 0oS Clan are, I urge you to help me create a world in which cannibalism, stoicism, and revisionism are all but forgotten.
Hi, I go by the JKII screen name of Carth, who is one of the admins of the 0oS server, and I go out of my way to make myself sound smart and instead talk out of my ass, which 95% of this post implies. The other 5% gives that nice little added smell to it.
So this must be your "smart guy" template.

Jon Herington: Kernel of Truth
Kernel of Truth
Jon Herington (guitar, vocals)
Pulse and Cadence (ESC 03726-2)
Jon Herington (guitar, vocals),
Ralph Bowen (soprano sax), Jim Beard (keyboards), Victor Bailey (bass), Peter Erskine (drums), Arto Tuncboyaciyan (percussion, vocals).
Composed by Jon Herington.
Recorded: Stamford, CT, June 1992; released 2008
Rating: 85/100 (learn more)
This outing was originally recorded in 1992 and released only in Japan under the title The Complete Rhyming Dictionary. The band features two members of Weather Report, Peter Erskine and Victor Bailey. This was important to Herington as he wanted to honor the sound of that band.
African rhythms usher in "Kernel of Truth." Beard provides a background of textures as Herington goes slightly bluesy. Within a minute, the preliminaries are dispensed with. Herington offers a grinding fusion solo. Ralph Bowen, sounding like Bill Evans (sax), plays a pleasing passage. Beard's synthesizer keyboards become a more dominant background before the band drops into a short funk-leaning groove as the song fades out. Weather Report, of course, did not feature a guitarist. This added element produces a sound different than Weather Report's. But the spirit is retained. "Kernel of Truth" is a good approximation of an above-average fusion song of the early '90s.
In recent years, Herington has turned more to pop, including a stint with Steely Dan. But his prodigious jazz chops, in evidence even with Steely Dan, are not to be overlooked.

The World Peace Forum Society was established to organize the World Peace Forum in Vancouver in June of 2006. As a result of the success of the forum the members of the society voted in the winter of 2007 to continue working to create spaces and events where activists, academics and artists committed to promoting peace, social justice and sustainability could get together to discuss and plan.
In September of 2007 the World Peace Forum organized Peace Without Borders at Peace Arch Park on the Canadian-U.S. border. This was a unique opportunity for peace and social justice activists from the two countries to meet. Among other things it produced the first joint statement by the BC Federation of Labour and the Washington State Labor Council, calling for an end to the wars against the peoples of Iraq and Afghanistan.
In November of 2008 a Teach-In- 'Ninety Years After The War To End All Wars'- was held on the 90th anniversary of the end of the First World War at the Maritime Labour Centre in Vancouver. Several hundred participants attended more than 30 plenaries and workshops over three days. Topics ranged from Canada's 'peacekeeping' activities in Haiti to the BC labour movements anti-war activities during World War I, from presentations on 'Oil, Blood Money and Empire' to a keynote address by Tariq Ali to a special presentation of 'My Name Is Rachel Corrie' by Neworld Theatre.
In November of 2009 we held the next Teach-In '1929-1939 – From Crash to Catastrophe'. It looked at key events between the onset of the world wide economic crisis in October of 1929 and the beginning of World War II in September of 1939. This period, rich in historic lessons for today's activists, was explored through plenary sessions, workshops and artistic exhibits and performances. There were presentations and discussions that drew on what peace and social and economic justice activists were doing last year as we were (and still are) confronted by another world economic crisis and new wars, including the war against the earth.
Many of the presentations from all of the Teach-Ins are available on the World Peace Forum web site. Click on 'videos'. (At the moment this is under reconstruction, please go to Working TV or Pasifik.ca to view the videos)
The best Teach In will be the one with as many contributions to its form and content as possible. Over one hundred people signed up as being interested in future events at Peace Without Borders and an equal number at the 2008 Teach In. This is an opportunity to help make the next event as good as it can be.
Anyone who wants to be a member of the World Peace Forum Society and who agrees with its basic ideas, expressed in The Vancouver Declaration- available on our web site- is welcome to come, join the society and participate in creating the next Teach In and other society activities. We want to build as representative and diverse an organization as the movement against war, social injustice, economic inequality and environmental degradation

Prince Muhammad bin Nayef slightly injured in terrorist attack
August 28, 2009
Assistant Minister of Interior for Security Affairs Prince Muhammad bin Nayef bin Abdulaziz received minor injuries last night after a terrorist blew himself up at the Prince's residence in Jeddah, according to a statem
ent released by the Royal Court. The bomber, identified as a terror suspect who indicated a desire to turn himself in to Prince Muhammad, was going through security to enter a gathering of Ramadan well-wishers when he detonated an explosive device strapped to his body. Shortly after the incident, Prince Muhammad was taken to the hospital, where he was examined, treated for minor injuries and released. While at the hospital he received a visit from the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, who came to inquire about his health. No one else was hurt in the attack, which took place at 11:30pm local time.

MD5 Checker
Fabien Thalgott
- January 14, 2014
( 1,232)
This application allows the user to compare the MD5 checksum between two files or alternatively between a file and a value entered manually. When loading a .md5, it will read its content and put it in the field instead of calculating the hash.
The checksum calculation can take several seconds on larger files (up to 20 sec on a 300MB file), please be patient after selecting it :)
MD5Checker can now help you resolve a hash into its original text. The application is querying a database online and the results are limited by it. Not all hashes will be translated.
nice for tablets this works for my asus transformer pad so I am happy to say this app is great. the color indictor is nice too. would recommend.
Just Right Lightweight app that performs as intended. The standard when checking zips or other files that downloaded slowly - sometimes server error that can potentially cause a corrupt download. Nice app! Thanks!
Works well Best I've found. UI is blase but I don't care, it's a free md5 tool.
Works Okay Does well and is easy to use, but one problem, though. The app will find the MD5 but will not "check" it to verify the MD5s match, I have to do it manually. Other than that little quirk, the app works great.
Does what it says No frills and no ads. Does what it set out to do. Gives md5 checksums.
Great Easy file explorer to find your zip or etc. Then easy to copy/paste the MD5 from anywhere on the phone like the web browser where you downed the ROM from.
What's New
- Fixed an issue where a previously saved path which has been deleted would cause the application to crash
- Fixed an issue for Android 4.4 where SD card content could not be read
-Completely rewrote the application for code clarity
-Updated tab UI
-Improved stability
-reads .md5 and .md5sum files

To prepare these porcupine beef balls two recipes are included. The ground beef balls and the tomato soup sauce are outlined separately. Finally brought all together with uncooked rice, onion and spices to create meatballs that look similar to mini porcupines. This will be an interesting main course presentation that will soon be dinner.
What a cute way to combine meat, vegetables and a staple like rice together to surprise the family with. A delicious dish that is healthy, filling and not having anyone raid the refrigerator an hour later.
Tomato soup sauce recipe
- 1 tablespoons of butter
- ¼ cup of chopped celery
- ¼ cup of chopped green pepper
- 2 tablespoons of chopped onion
- 1/3 cup of water
- 1 ½ cups of condensed tomato soup
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of dry mustard
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 1/8 teaspoon of pepper
- Melt butter in a medium sized frying pan.
- Add the celery, pepper and onion and cook until all the vegetables are tender.
- Remove frying pan from stove.
- Then add the remaining ingredients and stir into the vegetables.
- Return the frying pan to the stove and set the flame to simmer.
- Allow to cook uncovered for 5-7 minutes till the entire mixture is heated well.
- Turn the stove off and start working on the meatballs.
Porcupine beef ball recipe
- 1 pound of ground beef
- ½ cup of uncooked rice
- ¼ cup of onion, minced
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/8 teaspoon of pepper
Combine all ingredients and shape into 1 ½ inch balls.
Place the meatballs in a baking pan or oven resistant casserole dish.
Pour the tomato sauce over the meatballs.
Cover the baking dish and bake for 1 hour or until the rice is cooked through. (Some of the rice will poke through the meatballs. To test for doneness pinch a grain of rice between fingers to see if they are tender enough.)
Place baking pan on a trivet at the dining table or carefully transfer porcupine meat balls to a serving platter.
- A sprinkling of chopped fresh parsley on top will provide a nice garnish.
- A can of mushroom soup can be substituted for the tomato soup.
- This is a great meal for those who enjoy the flavor of stuffed peppers without eating an entire green pepper.

It's 2010 and the time of year when many advertisers take a good hard look at their marketing efforts to identify opportunities for the new year.
Today we describe a layered approach to evaluating a paid search program. The top level view might be the right view for the C-level execs who can't get too deep in the weeds. The day-to-day management team should reflect on the high-level view, but also needs to roll up their sleeves and get dirty to make sure they're getting the most out of the channel.
It's ALL about the Competitive ("non-brand") Search Keywords
The clear and actionable view of paid search at any level of detail comes from studying the performance of the competitive search program separated entirely from trademark/brand search. People searching for the advertiser by name aren't driven by search, and paid search ads on those brand terms, already at the top of the page, can neither create more brand traffic, nor materially create incremental business from that cohort. "Brand" ads primarily cannibalize organic and affiliate links and managing those brand terms takes little effort. The real effort and the real incremental value of paid search is in the competitive (aka "non-brand") side of the game, hence that is where the focus needs to be in the evaluation at every level.
The 10,000 Foot View
- Is Competitive Paid Search hitting efficiency targets? If not, go no farther, the program is wasting money and heads should roll. Spending the budgeted amount for media regardless of the ROI is the wrong way to approach search.
- Is the Competitive Paid Search program (herein after referred to as "the program") growing in sales volume? If the efficiency targets are being hit and the program is getting bigger, that's a positive sign. It isn't a definitive sign one way or the other. The recession shrunk many well-managed programs; and programs can grow simply from channel shift without being particularly well handled.
- Is the program growing as a percentage of total site sales? Much more telling than #2, growth as a percentage of the whole site shows that paid search is an increasingly important marketing channel which speaks well of its management. Again, shrinkage in this regard doesn't necessarily mean the program is run poorly; as I discussed with Ken Cassar of Nielson: having a huge percentage of site sales coming through paid advertising isn't necessarily healthy in the long run. Repeat customers are key to profitability, and they don't typically come through competitive paid search ads.
- Is the program growing relative to competitive natural search? One probably shouldn't pit the SEO team against the paid search team as though they're rivals, since great progress by one doesn't necessarily imply the other isn't doing well too, but it's a metric to watch.
The Ten Foot View
Take a Keyword level performance report from Google for the last 2 or 3 months. (Whether this is first touch data, last touch data or some allocation doesn't make much difference as we and others have shown time and time again.)
- Do the high traffic terms each meet the efficiency objectives within reasonable tolerance for statistical noise?
- In category/subcategory groupings do the lower traffic KW meet their efficiency targets in aggregate?
- In other groupings meaningful to your business do the lower traffic KW meet the efficiency objectives?
- Clustering by traffic volume, do the aggregates still make sense efficiency wise?
Bid management and analysis is half the battle, and the most complex half by far. This view will reveal the most damning evidence of problems if there are problems with the program. Do not accept "Buying cycle" arguments as an excuse for poor efficiency.
If the program looks good from each of the perspectives above then your paid search managers are handling at least the fundamentals of bid management well.
The Ten Inch View
- How large is the list of active Keywords on Google? There exceptions to every rule, including this one, but 5 to 10 KW per product on the site is a pretty good benchmark. The Long Tail is valuable for almost every program, and broad match is no replacement for a comprehensive list.
- What's the quality of the KW coverage? Spot check some random sub-categories to see if all the obvious and not so obvious permutations are covered.
- Are the Keywords machine generated gibberish? Machines do a lousy job of generating lists: leaving gaping holes, creating dangerous untargeted and inappropriate phrases and generating thousands of valueless phrases of more than 4 words. When evaluating the length of the list these should be ignored.
- Are the landing pages appropriate? Placing visitors on a page equal in depth to their search improves conversion rates. Linking more general phrases to product pages leaves opportunity on the table. Only SKU specific Keywords should land on product pages. Ask for a KW - Ad Copy - Landing Page spreadsheet ranked by traffic volume descending. Check the landing pages for the highest traffic KW, and spot check others down the list.
- Is the ad copy compelling and sufficiently specific? The goal is to sell the advertiser's website, not the product. The user has already expressed interest in the product via their search, the goal is to convince them that your site is the best place to shop for it.
The Microscopic View
If the first three successively closer inspections reveals a healthy program, congratulations, you're in the minority! Your program is healthy, but not necessarily in peak condition.
Peak fitness comes from applying the most sophisticated techniques in paid search, and executing them at the highest levels.
- Smart use of negative associations developed from user search strings. Proper databasing of referrer data and use of Google's research tools should reveal opportunities to trim fat and raise bids on broad matched KW.
- Creating separate campaigns for exact matched and broad matched KW and bidding more on the exact match versions based on calculated performance differentials makes a material difference in performance.
- Placing the exact match version referenced above on Google.com only and pushing those bids more based on the syndication effects researched previously also produces positive returns on the effort. Using syndication partner exclusions on Yahoo while we wait with baited breath for their bidding differential option to go live will achieve the same effect.
- Anticipatory bidding based on seasonal shifts and shorter term promotions helps take the most advantage of those hot periods.
- Day parting done smartly (using the time of the click, not the time of the order) to exploit intra-day variance in performance values requires good analysis and superb tools.
These fine tuning mechanisms create the competitive advantages needed in a tough market place.
Still passed the test? Fantastic! Your paid search program is ripped!
But the fact that the program is managed beautifully doesn't mean your business is getting all it can out of paid search.
- Are the managers aiming at the right targets?
- Are they factoring in returns and cancels?
- Are they measuring call center spillover?
- Are the targets set based on margin data? Handling co-op advertising dollars?
- Are lifetime value considerations factored in? By the type of first purchase?
- Is the tracking system catching all the sales?
- Is the cookie window sensible?
- Is attribution between channels handled correctly?
If you don't know the answers it's time to start asking why and when. Paid search remains the number 1 mechanism for generating incremental business online; the fact that it's no longer new and sexy doesn't mean it can be safely ignored.

It was a "Real Housewives" weekend in Vegas. On Saturday, July 19, housewives from different cities gathered together for an event at hotel Caesars Palace. Kenya Moore of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" posted a photo of her standing with Kyle Richards of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," Melissa Gorga of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," and Vicki Gunvalson of "The Real Housewives of Orange County." Also with the group of women was Jill Zarin, a former housewife of "The Real Housewives of New York City."
Kenya obviously enjoyed her company. In a bit of a dig at the housewives who weren't there, Kenya included the hashtag "#realhousewifeclub" in her caption for the photo. Vicki for one was glad that Kenya was there, if only because it meant that she was no longer the tallest woman of the group. She posted a photo of her and Kenya standing together for the cameras and for her caption wrote that she's finally shorter than a housewife.
During her time in Vegas, Vicki made sure to do as much as she can. As reported by VegasNews.com, she even rode The High Roller at The LINQ, an observation wheel with glass-enclosed cabins that offer a view of the Strip.
Vicki's co-star and good friend Shannon Beador was also in Vegas over the weekend but it's not clear if the two got together. Shannon apparently didn't go to the Caesars Palace with the other housewives. She did, however, hang out at the Venetian hotel with Jenni Pulos, from Jeff Lewis' show "Flipping Out," and actress Heather McDonald, who was once rumored to be joining "The Real Housewives of Orange County."
It's not clear exactly what kind of event all of the housewives were in Vegas for. One thing that is probably true is that with Vicki Gunvalson, Kenya Moore, Kyle Richards, and Melissa Gorga all together in the same room, it was a crazy and wild night!

I am currently working on a computer science project where I have to evaluate charts. The charts are simple lines in a $x$ - $y$ coordinate-system, given by CSV files. The flatter the curve, the better for me. Now I am looking for an indicator for the "flatness" of this curves.
My first idea was to calculate the first derivative of the function and then calculate the average between two points. If this value is near $0$, then the function is pretty flat.
Is that a good idea? Is there any better solution?
