How to Pull Off Guerilla Marketing
Guerilla marketing is an effective way of spreading the news about a certain small business venture. This is embraced by a lot of business owners who have been struggling to make a name out of scratch. Yet, the risk is said to be present.
This marketing strategy is a sure hit once success comes as a success, however, once it hits the low note it can be a very disappointing step. In fact, it may even leave your business on the state of getting ditched.
With all the things said, it is just right to say that guerilla marketing is not for the frail hearted but for those who can take risks. This unconventional step might even leave a memorable mark on consumer's eyes if the campaign goes to a success.
If you would consider yourself a risk taker, you may get hold of this marketing strategy. However, there are just some simple things that you need to bear in mind before taking the risk. Here are the most important ones that you may find useful.
Set Clear Objectives
Before jumping into the idea of starting a guerilla marketing campaign, there is a need for you to set clear goals inside your mind. Setting goals will only leave you on the right track as you have that specific thing to look forward to. During the times when you may seem to feel failure coming, you can just go back to your objectives to raise your spirits higher.
Another thing about setting objectives is that it allows you to be guided on the right guerilla marketing strategy to take. The campaign should just be made to reach specific goals.
Know Your Target Population
Guerilla marketing is said to be a trial and error process. There is no guarantee that you will succeed by just following the strategy, yet, there is that one thing that will really put you on the safe side – knowing your target population.
Once you have the idea of your target population, you can easily pick the strategy that will suit them best. Marketing strategies are not just for show but rather should tap the people that you are targeting to avail of your products and services. This is why it is so important to determine your targets first to design the techniques effectively.
Always be Prepared
There is a great deal over getting prepared too. Since there is a chance for failure, you should understand that marketing is truly a game of trial and error. You should also be armed with another plan to try again after each failed attempt.
It is a risk to take guerilla marketing into the picture. Its name even implies that risky idea. However, once this risky step grounds to a success, you will surely get a lot in terms of sales and customers. There is just that mark of success and failure, there is nothing in between. This is why everything should just be done in a meticulous manner to make sure that your attempt will land to a success.

Top 3 Online Sports Marketing Ideas
Promoting your favorite sports or team online is one of the most challenging things to do. It requires a great deal of patience since it takes time to reach the right audience. If you have just been tasked with promoting a team or sport online, try to apply the following strategies:
Viral Videos
If you would like to make your social media posts to go viral, then you need to add videos and pictures. Unknown to a majority of novice social media marketers is that viral videos are the best tools to use if you would like to promote your favorite team. Viral videos will not only allow millions of people to learn more about your team, but accumulate millions of fans in a relatively short period of time.
One of the reasons why viral videos are popular is because they create a personal connection with your audience. However, in order for your video to go viral, you need to do it right. You need to be tactful when trying to show the world the goofiness or genuineness of your players as well as management. When it comes to creating viral videos, YouTube is the best platform to use.
The conventional theory of 'spending a little to earn more' is not in vain when it comes to marketing your team online. Sacrificing a couple of tickets to a game will not hurt your revenue collection. If you are finding it hard to fill a stadium, start by giving free tickets in order to encourage people to attend the games.
Viral Videos
Encouraging your players to join various social media sites can also do justice to your team. When players are on social media, they:
– Help to promote the image of the team.
– Help to encourage people to attend games.
Lessons Learned from Failed Marketing Campaigns
Not all marketing campaigns launched by companies for their products always turn out a success. In fact, even the most popular companies nowadays experience failure in their marketing campaigns. But, if you are also promoting your business, it is important to look at these failures positively and learn a variety of lessons from these failed marketing campaigns.
Be responsible to monitor your campaigns. In other words, even if you have big trust on your advertising agency, it is still your company image that is on the line so you must be responsible enough to check whether the ad agency is doing the job well or not. This is exactly what happened to Coca Cola. Since they trusted the ad agency in everything, they failed to check whether the ad is good or not.
Be responsible enough to check the message conveyed by the ad if it really goes well with what you claim your product can do or give. In other words, even if you have to exaggerate a little, make sure that your product can live up to your claims presented by your campaign.
Ban offensive slogan. This happened to Rebook already since they launched a campaign that has offensive slogan. Make sure that the slogan for your campaigns is creative but not offensive. As a tip, you can be creative without being offensive.
Be cautious about your humor approach. If you are trying to tickle the audience by launching a humor campaign, make sure that you are very cautious enough not to offend a certain group, ethnicity, race, etc. Sometimes, when certain groups are offended, your supposed-to-be funny slogan or campaign could turn out a flop. In other words, make sure you are serving purely humorous campaigns without traces of racism, discrimination, etc. just like what happened to Groupon's campaign.
Move forward. The most important lesson learned from failed marketing campaigns is to move forward and do not dwell on these failures all the time. In other words, you have to be inspired by the failed marketing campaign of some big companies because even if they experienced failure, they are still able to get their feet right back on track.
Deal on Custom Koozies from www.expressimprint.com
Ordered this item two weeks ago along with the other mugs we got for an event we are having and really liked them. I had been looking for custom koozies for a while and found them at expressimprint.com for a while and found them for $0.35 per piece Koozies, which is a lot better deal than what we paid last time. I checked the website and whoa….what I saw was amazing a koozie that holds both bottles and cans . Was thrilled and ordered one instantly. Got it delivered in about 4-5 days time and tested it with a bottle at home. And guess what? After about an hour when I wanted to drink it, it was just as cold as I had expected it. Amazing!!
Top 3 Most Memorable Marketing Campaigns In Our Time
Watching television exposes you to many different marketing campaigns of various products and companies. There is no doubt that the audience does get entertained by these campaigns but among the many different marketing campaigns, there are only a few that retains in the memory of the people.
The Coca Cola Marketing Campaign. There is no denying how entertaining Coca Cola's marketing campaigns are. From their ordinary campaigns and most especially to their Christmas campaigns, the company is known to get their message across to the audience in such an entertaining and inspiring way that it never leaves the memory of the people easily. This is the most memorable because their campaigns always garner thousands of positive feedbacks from the people.
The Proctor and Gamble Old Spice Marketing Campaign. The Old Spice marketing campaign by Proctor and Gamble has garnered millions of Youtube views because many loved the campaign so much. This is not only because of the slogan "The Man your Man Could Smell Like" but also because of the cool effects they used that truly retained in the memory of the people such as how the man from the bathroom suddenly was on the boat and from the boat to the horse. There is no doubt the campaign amazed a lot of viewers.
The Evian Water Marketing Campaign. The smile and laughter that this marketing campaign gave to the viewers are reasons enough why the Evian water marketing campaign is one of the most memorable marketing campaigns ever. It is amazing how skaters can actually do their skating techniques well but what amazes most viewers about the Evian skaters is because they are babies. The marketing campaign sure tickled the senses of the viewers which is why it is not a surprise that this campaign has garnered massive downloads.

Hi all,
I'm looking for support in getting live Tv streaming going out to the PS3 (and other devices). I have written a plugin for the mediaportal Tv Server http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/community-plugins-294/my-small-contribution-i-call-streamtv-50470/. The build up on that page at the moment won't work with PMS due to the byte order mask been there though I have changed that in my local test build.
I managed to get the PMS server reading the RSS feed ok once I fixed the BOM issue but how PMS uses VideoLan for the video streaming (there are different problems using MEncoder and I couldn't get MPlayer going) is causing a few issues.
The biggest issue i'm having is probably due to VLC transcoding the video to mpeg2 / mpeg. If I watch SD tv it will play but the audio will be horrible and video isn't great, if I try HD most channels just crash VLC.
Anyway if anyone here is interested in helping to fix the problems i'm having using PMS i'd be more then happy to work with you to try and make a solution that works. I'll also release a update so you can do local testing yourself.
At the moment Tversity is the best option I have but it cuts the video off after 18 minutes of HD (roughly), i'd like to really find a solution to this.

The word 'luck' turns up in the Snow Patrol story with set-your-watch regularity, and it's commonly accepted that the period when the band cashed in theirs was around the release of their biggest selling single. I'm not sure I agree. The care and detail lavished on Eyes Open seems symptomatic of people who, finally rewarded with a budget to match their ambition, are determined to enjoy this opportunity for all it's worth.

There's no fear of Snow Patrol surprising us. 'You're All I Have' is as safe a return as you might expect from the Belfast band. Chugging guitar lines and baby faced vocals characterise three minutes of Gary Lightbody's pleas "to hold on" to whatever girl may or may not inspired this rehash of previous offerings. Its incessantly warm and catchy chorus may make this no bad thing necessarily but we could really do without Final Straw mark two.

SANTA CLARA -- Colin Kaepernick is doing his best to ignore his sudden rise to national prominence while the 49ers head into Sunday's NFC Championship Game.
He isn't gloating over his appearance on this week's Sports Illustrated cover. He forwards fan mail and other requests to his agent. He is focused squarely on facing the Atlanta Falcons for the right to go to the Super Bowl.
When he leaves the 49ers facility, Kaepernick described his daily routine as this: "I go home, I watch my film, watch anything on TV but sports. I go to bed and come back and do the same the next day."
But he does scan his Instagram account to see who's been mimicking his "Kaepernicking" move, in which he kisses the tattoos on his right biceps. "I saw a girl Kaepernicking while she was riding a horse," Kaepernick said of the best image he's seen thus far.
Coach Jim Harbaugh said of Kaepernick's ability to handle the newfound fame: "Colin does a great job of continuing in his humility."

Since I was not even taught the ho-hum view of history, (or failed to pay attention to it because I was so alienated from everything in my daily life [massive distrust of people, feeling of alienation from peers, genuine fear of waking up every day knowing what i faced]), I feel the need to learn what the fuck it is that they were trying to teach to me.
But I don't want to learn it like i'm a 6th grader. I want the least amount of propaganda possible, while still receiving a view of history as if important figures made these emphatic, societal-changing impacts upon our country's philosophies.
Basically what I mean is that I don't want to read a 4th grade book about U.S. history. I want to read a college-level book that uses the same general pedagogy but is a bit more advanced and sophisticated (a 20 year old brain is hopefully more advanced than an 8 year old brain).
I simply never learned history as would be taught to us by the Establishment. And I never learned it as taught by someone by Zinn. Hehe.. .. I just want to hear it both ways.
But my point is, I want to learn it the traditional way the BEST way possible so that I'm not stuck with some bullshit 5th grade book that tells me about legislation, presidential figures, and judgmental decisions as if they define the history of the country. There has to be some books that don't take it to that extreme. And those are the books I want to find.
SIMPLE!!! I DON"T EVEN KNOW SHIT ABOUT HISTORY! FACT! FACT! FACT! I DON"T KNOW THE "FACTS" ..... but i want to know the "facts".
THen I want to know what really went down. Which I have learned through Zinn. But without the regular, vulgar knowledge of the history, it is difficult to put the Zinn shit into perspective.
I'm looking for the BEST possible reads to learn the ".... FACTS ..... " of history.
Before I try to interpret.
LOOOOOOOOONNNNNGGGGGG post.
sorry for the minor scuffle that might result. I'm still up.

Black Friday's round-the-clock sales apparently were just a warm-up for the homestretch of the holiday season, as many retailers will open their doors this weekend and keep them open straight through Christmas Eve.
In an unusually short shopping season and with just five days till Christmas, retailers are pulling out all the stops.
"It's crunch time, " said Jamie Gutfreund, chief strategy officer at The Intelligence Group, a business research firm.
For the first time, Kohl's will stay open 108 hours starting at 6 a.m. Friday as "an added convenience to shoppers," said spokeswoman Jackie Kacala. Some Macy's stores will log 107 hours of nonstop sales before closing at 6 p.m. Christmas Eve.
And Toys R Us, which has helped pioneer extended holiday hours by shifting Black Friday sales to Thanksgiving, will offer 87 consecutive hours of shopping, opening Saturday at 6 a.m. and staying open until 9 p.m. Christmas Eve. The retailer's flagship store in New York's Times Square has been open since 8 a.m. Dec. 1 and will stay open for 566 hours -- the store's longest stretch of uninterrupted shopping.
"It's been an escalating progression," Gutfreund said. "Ten years ago it would have been 'Oh my god,' but now it seems to be not such a leap. ... It's all about the consumer now."
The shopping all-nighters started on Thanksgiving, when more stores than ever before opened to lure shoppers away from the dinner table and into the malls for sales that used to start on Black Friday. Retailers hope the extended hours will make up for the six days they lost this season; Thanksgiving fell late this year, leaving just 26 days until Christmas and setting up for the shortest holiday shopping season since 2002.
Many retailers depend on the holidays for up to 40 percent of their annual sales, and chopping almost a week out of the season could cost retailers about $1.5 billion in sales, according to a study by Adobe (ADBE) Digital Index.
"These final days are really important to the retailer," said Vera Gibbons a financial analyst and spokeswoman for Capital One. "This is it. This is make it or break it."
It's not just the marathon hours that will feel like round two of Black Friday -- retailers will also dangle sales and promotions in front of consumers, many of them as good as or better than Black Friday deals. Toys R Us is offering 50 percent off and buy-one-get-one deals, with a two-day sale starting Friday. Kohl's is offering cash back on purchases and Target has discounts of up to 60 percent, and has extended its in-store pickup service for online orders to 2 p.m. Dec. 24.
Experts expect consumers will hit stores at every hour of the day and night until Christmas. While retailers have struggled with the shorter season, so too have shoppers struggled to find the time to buy gifts.
"The next (week) will be extremely hectic and busy, and you'll see a huge ramp-up," said Michael Niemira, chief economist and director of research at the International Council of Shopping Centers.
According to a survey by American Express on Dec. 6-8, about 21 percent of consumers hadn't started their holiday shopping yet, and almost a quarter were only halfway finished.
The longer hours also are a response to growing demand from consumers to buy what, when and where they want, retail experts say. Many consumers, especially millennials, expect the same from brick-and-mortar stores that they get from online shopping, which is at their fingertips 24 hours a day.
"Everything is fluid," Gutfreund said :"If I could have extraordinary at a click of a button, I had better be given extraordinary in the store."
Many of the shoppers expected to be out in the wee hours will be the usual procrastinators, experts say, but the round-the-clock hours also give nurses, truck drivers and others who work night shifts some of their first shopping opportunities all season.
Cathy Camp of Lake County was in Emeryville on Thursday to visit family and buy gifts for her grandchildren at Toys R Us. She has no plans to return to the store for any middle-of-the-night shopping, but said the extended hours could come in handy for working parents.
"Once the kids go to bed, one parent could go out shopping," Camp said.
Macy's "extended hours are a direct result of customer feedback," said spokeswoman Megan Pardo. "Our customers asked for more store hours in the day and night to shop, and we listened with stores staying open late at night or opening early.''
But some analysts warn that hitting the stores in the middle of the night with just a few days left before Christmas, when many consumers are tired and overwhelmed, is a recipe for overspending.
"If you're shopping at 4 a.m. people just discount it," Gibbons said. "It's like it's not really happening. But it is, and when you get that bill you'll see it."
It's a tradition that's probably here to stay.
"They've opened up Pandora's box. How do you take it away?" Gutfreund said. "People will accept that this is business as usual."

WAYNESBORO — The Waynesboro Stallions varsity Football team capped a 7-1 regular season on Sunday with a 26-0 victory over the Chambersburg Steelers to clinch the Liberty Division title and the second seed in the upcoming Keystone Youth Football Cheerleading League playoffs.
The Stallions, playing in their first season on their own field at the Otterbein Church Recreation Park, got on the board first when quarterback Brady Riddell plowed in from 7 yards out for a 6-0 advantage.
After the defense forced the first of four turnovers, the offense went to the air with a Riddell to Matt McCann 41 yard TD pass. The Stallions added the 2-point kick for a 14-0 lead.
The defense forced another turnover and the offense marched down the field with Stallion tailback Jay Alvarez scoring from 5 yards out for a 20-0 halftime lead.
The Stallions defense continued to dominate the action in the second half turning the Steelers over two more times. Waynesboro's offense added another score in the third quarter when halfback Lakin Rouzer rambled in from 2 yards out for a 26-0 final.
The Stallions advance to the KYFCL playoffs and will face the sevnth-seeded Fairfield Knights at Chambersburg Trojan Stadium on Oct. 27 at a yet to be determined time.

Stocks to Watch: KIT Digital, Research In Motion, OCZ Technology
By Saabira Chaudhuri
Among the companies with shares expected to actively trade in Friday's shortened session are KIT digital (KITD) Research In Motion (RIMM) and OCZ Technology Group (OCZ).
The former chief executive of KIT digital Inc. has accused the company of seeking to "scapegoat prior management" for its current problems and said he is prepared to lead a group to buy KIT for $193 million, an offer that comes two days after the software company said it would restate financial results due to accounting errors. KIT's shares fell 53% to 94 cents in recent premarket trading.
National Bank sees good things ahead for BlackBerry-maker Research In Motion when it launches its much-anticipated BlackBerry 10 line of smartphones. National, which bumped up its target price to $15 from $12, suggests buying RIM stock ahead of the launch, when it expects shipment estimates to climb. The firm upped its fiscal 2014 shipment view to 35.5M units from 31.6M, helped by an extra month of BB10 product availability. National says RIM management seems to be preparing for February availability, which it says is a month earlier than most analysts expected. Research In Motion's shares climbed 12% to $11.53 in recent premarket trading.
Data-storage provider OCZ Technology disclosed it is under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, after the company recently reported that it is reviewing its financial statements. Shares fell 8.4% to $1.09 in recent premarket trading.
MAP Pharmaceuticals (MAPP) said its New Drug Application resubmission for its orally inhaled migraine drug, Levadex, for the potential acute treatment of migraine in adults has been accepted for filing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Shares climbed 8.4% to $13.89 in recent premarket trading.
CNH Global (CNH) investors took heart after Fiat Industrial(FNDSF, FI.MI) confirmed Thursday that a committee of directors for CNH reacted favorably to its sweetened offer to buy out the company's minority shareholders, adding that a final merger agreement may be reached within days. Shares popped 5.5% to $50.11 in recent premarket trading.
Pluristem Therapeutics (PSTI) shares climbed after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration acknowledged Wednesday that aplastic anemia is a rare disease, confirming that potential treatments for the condition are eligible for orphan drug status. Israel-based Pluristem–which develops placenta-based cell therapies–in August applied to the FDA for orphan drug status for its placental expanded cells treatment for aplastic anemia. Shares rose 5.4% to $3.50 in recent premarket trading after climbing 4.7% during Wednesday's regular session.
BGC Partners (BGCP) is offering up to 20 million shares to raise funds for general corporate purposes including possible acquisitions and broker hires.
Citigroup (C) unveiled offers to purchase up to $18.44 billion principal amount of 12 series of outstanding notes, a move the bank said reflects its continued robust liquidity position.
General Motors (GM) clinched a $4.2 billion deal Wednesday to purchase Ally Financial Inc.'s European, Latin American and China operations, doubling the size of the auto maker's lending arm.
Consumer-products maker Reckitt Benckiser Group(RBGPY, RB.LN) signed a $1.4 billion deal to acquire Schiff Nutrition International (SHF) on Wednesday, outbidding drug and chemical firm Bayer (BAYRY, BAYN.XE).

All industrial sectors rely on elemental analysis and physical properties testing to confirm product compliance with manufacturing specifications. Support of product compliance testing has long been a core activity in MML in collaboration with industry associations and standards developing organizations (SDOs). For years MML has invested heavily in development of standard test methods for industrial commodities and in SRM development to validate those methods and to establish traceability to the International System of Units (SI). These efforts are aligned with industry needs through interaction with SDOs, industry associations, expert private sector laboratories, and commercial reference materials producers.

Emotions flare during DUI stop
A deputy stopped a car for speeding in Edwards Sept. 22. The car had also been weaving and took longer to pull over than normal.
The 44-year-old driver had alcohol on his breath and admitted he'd been drinking. Deputies had the man step out of the car and were questioning him when another car pulled up, stopping in the middle of U.S. Highway 6.
The female driver was the man's wife. She screamed at him while officers tried to get her to pull off the road. The woman pulled over and tried to run to her husband. Deputies held her back and coaxed her back into her car.
The man was cooperative and apologized for his wife's behavior. He agreed to perform voluntary roadside tests. He did not perform them to the officer's satisfaction and was arrested for further investigation of driving under the influence of alcohol.
He submitted to a blood test, was cited for DUI and released into the custody of his wife.
Solicitors charged
for trespassing
A resident of Crazy Horse Circle in Edwards called deputies after two men tried to sell him magazine subscriptions.
The 50-year-old resident told them the property was posted, "No soliciting." He told the men to leave but they persisted to try selling him magazines. He threatened to call deputies and the men became verbally abusive. He picked up the phone and the men started to leave but lingered in the parking lot until they saw him follow them while talking on the phone.
Deputies found the men at the next building over. The 24-year-old and 20-year-old men denied cursing at the resident. They were cited for trespassing.
Speeding without a license
A deputy stopped a car for speeding in a construction zone in Eagle-Vail on Sept. 29. The 30-year-old driver's license was under restraint.
He was cited for speeding in a construction zone and driving without a license.
Crazy driving
A deputy was driving west on Highway 6 between Eagle and Gypsum when he saw a car speeding the opposite direction.
The car weaved into the dirt shoulder, kicking up dirt as it passed the deputy's location. The car continued to accelerate. The deputy turned around and pursued the car, which crossed a double-yellow line to pass two vehicles.
The car finally stopped in a dirt lot near a gas station in Eagle. The 23-year-old driver started to get out as the officer pulled up behind him and pointed his "duty weapon" at him. The man got back in the car and tried to restart the engine. The deputy ordered him out of the car and detained him until backup arrived.
The man said he didn't know why he tried to evade the officer. His breath smelled of alcohol and he admitted he had two beers. The deputy said he could have killed someone driving like that. The man teared up and said he was sorry but he also said later that the only reason he stopped was because he ran out of gas.
The 23-year-old was not from the area and did not have a license. He refused a chemical test that was part of the DUI investigation and was jailed for felony eluding, reckless driving, DUI, speeding and driving without a license.
License plate lamps lead to jail
A deputy stopped a car in Edwards for defective license plate lamps on Sept. 29.
The 27-year-old driver didn't have a license. What he did have was a warrant out of Avon. He was jailed for the warrant and cited for driving without a license and for the defective lamps.
Car, foot chase
A deputy saw an SUV speeding on westbound Interstate 70 near Edwards at 3 a.m. on Sept. 30.
The officer drove after the car, which continued to speed through a construction zone. Then the deputy saw the car slow down as it started to smoke. The SUV pulled over as more smoke started coming from the engine.
A 21-year-old man got out of the driver's seat and ran north, away from I-70 as the officer yelled at him to stop. The suspect proceeded to climb over the wildlife fence when the deputy twisted his knee and fell down. Other officers responded with a K-9 unit to track the suspect as the deputy returned to investigate the SUV.
A 22-year-old man was getting out of the passenger seat, saying, "He blew my engine!" The man was the owner of the car and resisted when the officer handcuffed him.
He said he didn't know the driver and had just met him at a bar. The deputy asked why he would let a stranger drive.
"I don't know, dude," the man said.
The deputy warned him he would face charges for lying and hiding the man's identity. The man said, "I'm not telling you anything."
Meanwhile, the K-9 unit found the 21-year-old suspect in the 300 block of Longhorn Drive. His hands were badly cut from climbing the fence and he needed stitches. A container of marijuana was in his pocket. He agreed to go the hospital as long as deputies drove him and he didn't have to ride in an ambulance.
On the way to the hospital, he said he had known the other man since high school. He also commented that he shouldn't have had so much to drink at the bar.
He was treated for his wounds and submitted a breath test for investigation of DUI. He was booked into jail for DUI, eluding, speeding, displaying expired tags, failing to present proof of insurance, possession of less than 2 ounces of marijuana and obstructing government operations.
The car was towed and the 22-year-old was cited for obstructing government operations.
A resident of Chatfield Court in Gypsum reported that his $6,000 racing bike was stolen from his garage between Sept. 5-29.
He said he left the back screen door open so his cats could go in and out. He had his neighbors checking on the place and one noticed the door was open wider than usual around Sept. 23.
The bike was a GT aluminum frame with a custom time-trial setup and yellow tape on the handle bars.
Miscellaneous mischief
• Several items worth a total of $4,000 were stolen from two welding trucks parked at a business on Highway 6 in Avon between Sept. 21-24.
• A 20-inch Mongoose mountain bike was stolen from its place next to a garage on Deer Boulevard in Eagle-Vail between Sept. 30 and Oct. 1

After a long competition season, the Team Summit snowboard squad wrapped up its season with a bang.
United States of America Snowboard Association (USASA) held its national championship at Copper Mountain earlier this month with over 1,700 athletes from around North America attending. Team Summit received several invites for riders to represent the Rocky Mountain series in every discipline. The team had roughly 16 athletes in all the different events and all different age groups (6-28).
Many of the riders who came to nationals qualified through boarder cross, and of those athletes, the majority were ladies. Earlier in the week, the team got a little extra training on the course. The athletes worked on their starts and course lines, and their coach felt great about the extra time on the course.
"On race day, it paid off for youth rider Lindsea Lumpkin. She had the fastest time trial of the day and dominated the heat races," said head coach Sasha Nations. "On the final race, she got the hole shot and then with a few corners and wrecks, she crossed the finish third. That was one of the best races of the day."
Seven-and-under athlete Jace Guadagnoli, being one of the younger competitors at nationals, had a very busy week. He qualified for three different events: slopestyle, boarder cross and halfpipe.
"This was (Guadagnoli's) first year with Team Summit, and it was his very first year competing. His goal was to learn about competing, and he wanted to figure out what would become his favorite snowboard discipline. Jace learned a lot this year - from riding with his new friends to qualifying for nationals, and he is stoked to come back and shred with the team next year," Nations said.
Guadagnoli had great finishes throughout the week, such as a top-eight at boarder cross. He dominated the course all day, but when the semifinal rounds came up, he had a rough start - but didn't give up, Nations said.
Owen Pishna, also a first-time competitor at USASA Nationals, showed up to represent the team in the halfpipe.
"Being Pishna's first official year, he was very excited to make it to nationals," Nations said. "He did not make the podium this year; however, he did accomplish his personal goal of getting to nationals."
Over at the slope course, things were exciting: The course was big; the features were creative, and the riders were too.
Cooper Sclar showed up with a bag of rail tricks and some smooth-style airs, landing him a top-20 finish for junior men. The final day of snowboard nationals again took place at the slope course, where Brett Moody competed well.
"(Moody), just getting back from Junior Worlds, was still in full comp mode," Nationas said. "In his first run, he threw down and landed in the finals, along with 12 other riders. The men got two runs for finals, but Brett didn't to worry about a second. He rode to a top-five finish in his first lap through - and left nationals with a little extra coin in his pocket."
The team will continue training throughout the summer. Visit www.teamsummit.org for skate camps and snowboard camps throughout the summer.

180 Minute Running Time
Mondays from 6:30-9pm – January 20, 27, February 3, 10 - enroll here
Film 102 will look at four major elements of cinema – color, genre, sound and melodrama – and the goal is, as always, to sharpen our seeing and deepen the experience and the pleasure of watching movies. And, because this is not school, there are no pre-requisites for Film 102.
Class 1: Melodrama
Most American movies – and plenty of non-American movies – are melodramas. But melodrama is much misunderstood. It is NOT just a mess of weeping and sentimentality, but it IS a remarkable coming together of innocence and suffering. Melodrama is how our movies talk about race and social class and the experience of women – and also the experience of men. Most film noir is melodrama; most westerns are melodrama. First Blood, aka Rambo is melodrama
Clip: Avatar (James Cameron, 2009, and yes Avatar is melodrama) and Rambo
Feature: Stella Dallas (King Vidor, 1937)
Class 2: Genre.
From early on in its history, American film has been genre-based, meaning that film production companies made westerns, musicals, thrillers or gangster pictures, but did not make John Ford or Ida Lupino movies. Genre means loosely a kind of movie, which audiences easily recognize through patterns of story, locations, images and sometimes even actors. Genre films operate within bodies of rules, but the difference between good genre movies and lesser ones is that in the good ones the filmmakers know how to break the rules, and in the others, the rules become rigid.
Clip: Shane (George Stevens, 1953)
Feature: Notorious (Alfred Hitchcock, 1946)
Class 3: Sound
When sound came to the movies in 1927, many filmmakers were unhappy because they thought that dialogue would lead to realism, which they found dull, and would rob the movies of their poetry. Those troglodytes may have been right, but sound has also been used exceptionally well. It may breed realism, but it also has brought human conversation into film, along with complex characters and complex emotions in ways quite unlike the poetic silent film.
Clips: Citizen Kane (Orson Welles, 1941) and Nashville (Robert Altman, 1976)
Class 4: Color
Color can be wonderful or disgusting, and everything in between. It can make a film look like actuality, or it can alter our notions of what reality may or may not be. Color is mysterious and often inexplicable.
Clip: Swing Time (George Stevens, 1936)
Feature: Ju Dou (Zhang Yimou, 1990)

SAN JOSE -- Brent Burns reminded everybody Friday why the Sharks moved him off the blue line and onto right wing last season.
Yes, it was only a training camp scrimmage, but Burns was going full speed start to finish, crashing the net, knocking bodies down and even scoring a goal. And coach Todd McLellan didn't mind, even though Burns was running over other Sharks.
"They have to get prepared to play the real game. We're going to play Monday, and I can guarantee you Vancouver won't slow down," McLellan said. "We may as well get the summer habits out of our game here."
Burns himself didn't characterize his play as anything special.
"It's early. Just getting the legs, trying to get some chemistry," he said. As far as going full throttle, "I think you have to, I guess."
The Sharks' turnaround last season started in mid-March when McLellan took defenseman Burns, who had been struggling through injuries, and moved him back to the forward spot he played in junior hockey. Burns soon was taking regular shifts alongside Joe Thornton, and finished with 20 points in his last 24 games.
Burns said he didn't mind playing either position but wanted to know where he was being slotted in advance so he could tailor his training. The decision to keep him up front, McLellan said, was not the no-brainer it might have appeared to outsiders.
"We all remember what we just watched, but Brent Burns went to the NHL All-Star game as a defenseman," McLellan said over the summer. "He has that ability back there."
Still, with depth on defense and Marty Havlat expected to be out for an extended period, Burns was told to prepare for this season as a forward.
Friday he played down the impact that had on his offseason training but acknowledged he did make a few changes in the routine.
"I don't think it's that different," Burns said. "It's just a different game, so you've got to concentrate on a little bit different things -- training for different battles, different ways of shooting, positioning."
In Friday's scrimmage, players in Group B -- including Stewart -- defeated those in Group A, 5-1. Stewart did not figure in the scoring but did have an attention-getting hit on defenseman Jason Demers.
Stewart, 28, was not on an NHL roster last season but has scored 27 goals and 71 points in 262 games with the Florida Panthers, Atlanta Thrashers and Carolina Hurricanes. His best season was 2010-11 when he scored 14 goals and 39 points with Atlanta.

I have a server with AMD 64 4000+ (single core) that i want to use for media streaming of HD (1080) content.
I get some stuttering on the most heavy movies, like Avatar in 1080.
I know the CPU is too low end to do 1080 streaming (at least with transcoding). So my options are pretty much:
- Get a better CPU for the same socket (939). Will a Athlon 64 X2 be enough to handle this?
- Get the GPU to do the heavy lifting. Does PMS support GPU based encoding/transcoding?
Thanks for any help guys.

To activate DNA and stimulate healing on the cellular level, one can simply use our species' supreme expression of creative consciousness: words. While Western researchers clumsily cut and splice genes, Gariaev's team developed sophisticated devices capable of influencing cellular metabolism through sound and light waves keyed to human language frequencies. Using this method, Gariaev proved that chromosomes damaged by X-rays, for instance, can be repaired. Moreover, this was accomplished noninvasively by simply applying vibration and language, or sound combined with intention, or words, to DNA.

ROCHESTER — A city woman was indicted last week on a charge alleging she engaged in a pattern of sexual assault against a teenager.
Erica Westover, 24, of 19 Morton Ave., was indicted by a grand jury on an aggravated felonious sexual assault charge on Feb. 14.
The indictment alleges that between July 13, 2010, and July 13, 2011, she engaged in pattern of sexual assault against a minor who was between the ages of 14 and 15 at the time.
Arraignment for Westover's charge has been scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 28, at 9 a.m., at the Strafford County Superior Court.
If convicted, Westover could face 10 to 20 years in prison.
An indictment is not an indication of guilt; rather, it means a jury found sufficient evidence to warrant a trial.

Salmon, Coho (Sake, Ikura) – British Columbia, Canada
Coho Salmon are a fast-growing fish found throughout the North Pacific, and in British Columbia, Canada they are found in most coastal streams and rivers.
After spending 18 months at sea, adult Coho Salmon return to the stream in which they hatched to spawn and subsequently die. Survival of juvenile Coho Salmon in the ocean is greatly affected by environmental conditions. In recent years, survival rates have been low and most Coho Salmon populations in British Columbia are at low abundances. However, Canada has a good management in place to increase abundances of Coho Salmon.
In British Columbia, Coho Salmon are caught using gillnets, purse seines and troll gear. All fishing methods have little or no effect on the seafloor, but bycatch of seabirds and porpoises can be high in gillnets.

Charlie Sheen should be careful, or people might start thinking he's a decent human being.
In what was either a well-timed PR move, or a simple gesture of goodwill, Sheen is covering a big chunk of the funeral costs for the paparazzo who died last week covering Justin Bieber, cutting a $12,000 check to the photographer's family, according to TMZ.
Chris Guerra died after being struck by a car in Los Angeles on New Year's Day while taking pictures of Bieber's car. The website reported the photographer will be laid to rest Friday in a private service.
Sheen happens to be friends with a former photog who was friends with Guerra. He supposedly heard the family was trying to raise money to cover the costs. So Sheen -- who was more money than any mortal could ever need -- grabbed his checkbook. Which he seems to be doing a lot of lately for various people, including Lindsay Lohan, who received $100,000 from Sheen to cover her back taxes.
After being contacted by TMZ, Sheen released a statement saying "A tragic incident like this erases the line between the photographer and the subject. It's an unforgiving moment that begs us all to be human and work as one to prevent this in the future. As parents, we are all not supposed to bury our children. My deepest condolences to the families involved."

Mississippi Light Goose Conservation Order re-opened following the February 2-3 Youth Season, and steady numbers may provide excellent opportunities for the upcoming weekend.
"We do a late survey every year and we've spent a good amount of time in the field after that survey. There are a lot of geese here and they do seem to be hanging around," says Mississippi Migratory Game Bird Biologist, Houston Havens. "Whether or not they are geese coming up from the coast on their spring migration, or they are just arriving – that, we don't know. What we do know is that there are good numbers of geese in the North Delta."
Havens explains that light goose habitat improves this time of year due to farmers pulling the boards on flooded agricultural fields used for duck hunting. These fields, which are dry now, provide waste grains that remain in the fields. These fields are ideal for geese and hunters.
"The geese are searching out these muddy fields that have just been drained and these fields provide great habitat. Whether they are beans, corn, or rice," Havens says. "Winter wheat fields are ideal, depending on growth stage. Unfortunately, most winter wheat fields in the North Delta are further along in the growth stage than geese prefer."
While light goose numbers are high throughout the North Delta, the hunting can be tough. John Gordon, Avery Outdoors customer service specialist and avid goose hunter, hunts throughout the North Delta and agrees the numbers are up, but knows that doesn't necessarily translate into great hunting.
"This time of year, it seems that the birds get more difficult to pattern," Gordon says. "In mid-December the birds are constantly moving around, but this time of year they seem to find a spot and hold to it. I think a lot of this has to do with the fact that there aren't a lot of people hunting them."
Gordon explains that other hunters not moving the birds around can be a detriment, but that same lack of pressure may help if your decoys are in the right place. Geese in the area are not seeing multiple decoy spreads, so they can be susceptible to decoys and the electronic call.
"Wintering geese are much more difficult to hunt compared to birds on the move, heading north," Gordon says. "They are familiar with the area and many times know exactly where they are going."
Mississippi Department of Wildlife and Fisheries produced a Goose Concentrations map two weeks ago that still applies to this weekend. Havens and Gordon verified that these large flocks are still within the general areas on the map, and flock size may have increased.
Last year, Mississippi issued 464 LGCO permits with an extrapolated estimate of more than 6,200 light geese taken. Havens expects this number to be very similar or possibly higher due to the number of geese still around the state.
"Geese moved north much earlier last year and we have had several people calling and getting their permits this week," Havens says. "A lot of people see these huge flocks and think they are just going to go out and get shots, but it is much more difficult than that. It's possible to have good hunts right now though."

Yesterday I featured an obvious 'shop of Game Boy Tetris, purporting to show a playing area whose remaining blocks resembled two people
Turns out there's a guy out there who actually does use Tetris to create pixel art, and he just completed one of Luigi, nine months after a Mario effort that took 98 minutes start to finish. While he adjusts the gameplay settings to keep the feat from being impossible, there's no doubt this is a work based on being served pieces at random and then figuring out how to place them or clear them off in order to deliver the final image.
This one took 65 minutes. (Don't worry, that video is sped up.) Watch the construction of Luigi's head. It takes forever. The creator, YouTube user Shuey187, is nothing less than a Tetris savant.

I have a Pentium 4 - 2.80 GHz with 4 GB of ram.
I am attempting to stream videos via wireless N. I am using 2 Linksys Wrt150n routers running dd-wrt firmware. One router is used in bridge mode and connected to the PS3 in order to be able to stream at 802.11n speeds.
The videos I am streaming shutter if I am attempting to stream a 1080p video. I am able to steam 720p videos that average 7-10 mbps but anything higher will shutter.
All my videos are supported by the PS3 so no encoding is needs.
How is it that I am not able to stream a video (even one that is around 30 mbps) on a network that has the capability of speeds of 270 mbps?
Any help is appreciated.
