The silver lining of the B2B media buying cloud
Ad revenue is down, publications are suffering, and many ad sales people are fearing for their jobs. Right now, B2B media owners have got it tough. No point pretending otherwise.

My dog is my starter baby. By Jessica Valenti for Babble.com.Jessica Valenti
Monty cried the first few nights he was home. It was annoying, and I didn't get much sleep. I am also not a fan of the peeing. I mean, it gets everywhere. The morning feeding and walking also took place about two hours earlier than I would have liked. I work from home, so I'm accustomed to waking up whenever I want, not being forced awake by crying. Between you and me, sometimes I just let him whine and sleep the extra hour.
Luckily, Monty is a miniature Australian Shepherd, so he doesn't take much offense.
I never thought of myself as the kind of gal who would baby her dog. I bristle when I see women with their little yappy dogs in designer gear that I couldn't afford for myself, cooing at them to "give Mommy kisses." I'm not a vegetarian, I don't think animals are like people, and I don't think you should tote dogs around in weird pet strollers or papooses. And I'm feminist, goddamn it – we only like cats! Right?
But like it or not, Monty is my baby. My starter baby.
I never really believed in the whole "biological clock" thing. It was a patriarchal construction devised to control women, a bullshit standard made to shame those of us who had the audacity not to want to breed as soon as humanly possible. Then I turned twenty-seven – and all of a sudden, frigging babies were everywhere. I could have sworn that women were reproducing at twice the normal rate. I never remembered seeing so many babies on the street and in coffee shops; strollers and Baby Bjorns always seemed to be in my eye line. And, much to my horror, I wanted one.
I started to think about the relationship I was in and how it wasn't necessarily conducive to child-rearing. After all, Brooklyn hipsters with coke problems don't exactly scream "daddy material." It wasn't long before I ditched the boy and left my Williamsburg loft, which was locally famous for impromptu, late-night parties. But looking back, I know I didn't want a baby in any real sort of way – I wasn't about to go get knocked up or start hopefully asking guys on our first date what they thought about children. I realized that I didn't want a baby, I wanted to baby.
Enter Monty. He came into my life via a very nice woman in Florida who let me adopt him after an arduous application process and hours of interviewing me and my family members. It was trying, but I'm betting it was easier than labor.
And I really must admit . . . the dog was a much better choice for me than a baby would have been. I get to let loose all of that mommy steam without the actual responsibility of a kid. It's awesome.
Monty is furry and cute, and he will never go through a hateful teenage stage where he'll roll his eyes at me and refuse to acknowledge my existence while in public. While he'll chew the occasional computer wire or shoe, Monty listens to me and never talks back. He never cries in a supermarket or otherwise embarrasses me. I never have to scold him and look like a bitchy mom. And, perhaps most wonderfully, I don't have to worry about scarring Monty for life if he catches me and my boyfriend having sex. In fact, he seems more intrigued than disturbed by the act.
Sure, I'll be cleaning up Monty's shit for the rest of his life, but I figure it's small price to pay in exchange for not having to pay his college tuition. It only took a couple of weeks of getting up early and cleaning up pee that the whole baby plan was put off another couple of years.
It is, however, somewhat irksome that even as staunch feminists, my boyfriend and I have managed to fall into bizarrely traditional gender roles when it comes to Monty's caretaking. I stay at home, coddling while blogging. I do most of the walks, the feeding, the over-excitement when he does something cute – which, naturally, is often. Andrew does the discipline, the training, and gives me a hard time for being too much of a softie. But I figure even our present Leave it Beaver model is a plus, as it gives me the opportunity to work out the traditional Mommy-Daddy roles thing before I breed for real. You just can't lose when it comes to a starter baby.
Even better than missing out on potentially crappy kid stuff and getting unconditional love from a massively fun dog is the fact that my baby-tinted glasses are now pretty much gone. I like going to visit my young cousins, cooing at friends' infants and then . . . well, leaving. I walk away, go home and no longer dream of toddlers with red hair. (I have a thing for gingers, so sue me.) I mean, it really only took a couple of weeks of getting up early and cleaning up pee – on my white couch, no less – that the whole baby plan was put off another couple of years.
And, dare I say it, I think having Monty will make me a better Mom one day. (Not soon, Andrew, calm down.) I'm more patient, more responsible, and much more realistic. Now if I could only resist the urge to dress Monty in a cute little sweater . . .

The Cultural Production of Eighteenth-Century Natural Knowledge
Call for Papers: Journal special issue
Essay proposals are invited for a collection entitled 'The Cultural Production of Eighteenth-Century Natural Knowledge'. We are developing a collection of essays as a journal special issue which will examine the production and circulation of knowledge about the natural world in the eighteenth century. This interdisciplinary collection will bring together original research on the relationship between science, culture and social practice in the eighteenth century.
The Enlightenment heralded an era of fascination with the workings of the natural world which eventually resulted in the development of large-scale, institutionalized efforts to investigate, categorize and explain nature. But Enlightenment knowledge was not made in the laboratory or the university alone: a complex of social networks outside these walls played a crucial role in making and disseminating new ideas, information and objects. We invite contributions that discuss scientific texts, objects, images, ideas and social networks in terms of the cultural and social conditions of scientific knowledge-making—both inside and outside of institutions. The collection will focus on the cultural and aesthetic frameworks within which medical and natural philosophical knowledge was created, represented and communicated. We hope contributors will pay special attention to historical interactions between different forms of knowledge, addressing how new kinds of ideas and social practices were produced at the points of meeting between artistic and scientific discourses and the moments of crossing between disciplinary, professional and social boundaries. The intention is to examine the cultural dimensions of eighteenth-century enquiry in order to understand what constituted 'knowledge' and the social processes of its production, as well as the various imaginative forms employed to make sense of new systems of information.
The essays in this special issue will demonstrate how Enlightenment representations of knowledge, manifested in textual, pictorial or oral form, influenced the development of new ways of knowing and encouraged the participation of new types of scientific practitioner. The first half of the collection will discuss the production and consumption of texts, collections and visual representations. The aim is to understand the relationship between these cultural manifestations and knowledge-making, through an examination of the points of intersection between aesthetic discourse and medical and scientific knowledge. How were scientific and medical ideas created and disseminated in literary texts, epistolary culture, travel writings, works of art, museums and other cultural productions? Who read these texts or studied collections, and how did they relate to them? Part Two will ask what the social consequences of this were for participation in Enlightenment science. By attending to how the circulation of knowledge and particular cultural forms might influence scientific practice, we aim to understand who participated in knowledge-making and how they did so during and in the wake of the Enlightenment. Through reanimating the cultural and social contexts of medical and scientific ideas and practices, this collection asks how people were invited to imagine the natural world as well as what the natural world was imagined to be. By enlarging the cultural and social framework through which we view eighteenth-century knowledge, the essays in this special issue will open up alternate genealogies for the production of ideas and development of new practices central to the emergence of scientific modernity.
We invite proposals on topics including, but not limited to:
- The literary production of medical and scientific knowledges
- Social participation in knowledge-making
- Science and visual culture
- Enlightenment scholarly networks and the circulation of people and things
- Scientific objects
- Science and storytelling
- Colonialism, geographical movement and the production of knowledge
- Aesthetic theory and discourses of scientific cognition
The collection will be edited and introduced by Dr Sarah Easterby-Smith (European University Institute) and Dr Emily Senior (University of Warwick), with an afterword by Professor Judith Hawley (Royal Holloway, University of London).
Deadline for proposals (2 pages max, accompanied by a brief biographical statement or CV): 20th May 2011. Complete essays of c. 7,000 words will be due 15th September 2011.
Please send queries and submissions to:
Sarah Easterby Smith firstname.lastname@example.com and Emily Senior email@example.com

So be prepared to not understand any of the signs when they go. I mean if you wanna watch it for the sake of it being a popular indie controversial art film then go for it. if you want like a detailed review let me know. I got time.

A Guide With regards to Small Business on Ways to Significance Clothing
While importing clothing and textile products, importance lies in deciding on quality and design and not supplier. There is no universal associated with 'good quality' when linen products and clothing come beneath concern. The key to getting no matter what required is drafting an guaranteed product specification.
There are plenty of enormous textile as well as clothing companies. The hardest part here is to get suppliers who have the capacity correspond design and quality demands. To find the best resources for import clothing, remember that a good manufacturer can never always refer to someone who stocks and shares highest quality clothing. There is a great market for cheap clothing in addition to many suppliers who win a specialisation in this marketing segment.
Check out whether the company can deliver according to require when import clothing gets there under concern. There may be suppliers who own brand reference point, years of experience and an amazing factory as well, but is unable to meet up requirement. This happens not necessarily because they are not worthy as a supplier but because they are not really into producing apparels such as this. It is better to check out on the following when import clothing gets there under concern: Whether kind of a given product bears similarity to products requiredIf the grade of current products match with good quality requirementsIf there are previous as well as current customers who are within similar quality range.
Now we are going to have a look at the ways involved in buying samples of textile products: -The best way to test the capability on the supplier is by ordering good examples. When textiles and clothing come under concern, it will require several revisions to get an issue that matches design and good quality needs. -Remember that the company may not be able to cater to each and every specification on sample. It is definately not possible for suppliers to colourise some square meters of material to match specific requirement as well as buy a handful of buttons from the component supplier. They also have minimum quantity needs that must be put by the supplier. -Another plan of action here is sending the company a reference sample. It is easier for suppliers for you to replicate design elements along with overall quality standard. -Never expect suppliers to provide with free samples. It is quite frustrating to make these samples and they will be required to make a purchase or make use of existing resource to come with one. The textiles along with clothing are low body weight, low density and high volume. Thus Air Delivery is not viable. Textile add-ons like caps have small volume but higher body weight and thus small shipment perform with it. Sea Freight could be the only option left generally in most case. While textile along with clothing can absorb bangs better than any other product, also, it is sensitive to liquids as well as damp ambience.
It is possible to importance clothing in small volumes of prints but there are some downsides on it and these factors are really worth consideration: Air Freight is simply not a viable option and not is Sea freight is generally case the weight is too a lot less. There are chances to get merely things that are in stock. Neglect brand customisation. So always check out on some elements for import clothing just before an order is placed possessing a supplier.

Comments about Novelty Gummi Pet Tarantulas - 1.5 oz - 48 Count Case:
Purchased these Gummi Pet Tarantulas mainly for the grandchildren's Halloween treats. Recommend only sending them 1 or 2 day delivery in warmer weather. I used 3 day and they arrived a little melted. I don't feel as guilty giving these treats to the kids as a special treat because at least each one contains 100% of the daily recommended vitamin C. The kids and I did a taste test and listed our favorite flavors, we had almost the exact order on our lists, with strawberry and cherry tied, next was lime, lemon, and pineapple. The last place was a very strange flavor of blackberry, (it's the most realistic looking, a wonderful black tarantula) all our lists guessed that the flavor had a similar taste to soap, shampoo, or a bubble bath product. None of us tasted a flavor of blackberry and none of us will eat the black tarantulas again. All the other flavors are fruity and delicious! The box comes with a random assortment, and lucky for us we received very few blackberry tarantulas, your box could have several! I gave 4 stars because of the taste of the blackberry tarantula.

Power Through The Toughest Workouts!View Product Info
I received the fruit punch flavor as a sample with a previous purchase. It was a little sweet for my liking, but I'd rather have it taste sweet than bland. Used as an intra workout, I felt great energy that helped get me through those last few reps.

I think it is one of the best (if not the best) inter workouts you can buy for the money. Provides a nice pick-me-up (without caffeine) and tastes good. After experimenting with various inter workouts, I don't envision myself leaving this one anytime soon.

I got the lemon berry bcaa's and was very disappointed. After trying the watermelon bcaa's I was very pleased so I ordered the lemon berry bcaa's and it tastes horrible. Almost like vomit and I didn't even feel energized.
Mar 21, 2016
This was awesome, kudos for neon's great taste and it gave me the extra boost of energy i needed
Mar 15, 2016
Kinetic was a great addition to my workout, the BCAA ratio is great for taking during a lift or later in the day with a meal, the flavor was good and actually made me more energized and excited for my workout, like a treat for lifting! I would recommend this to someone looking for a BCAA.

I got the watermelon sample one serving, and well check out the workout from this evening.2/18/2016. The numbers speak for themselves.

Have used prior with success. Most recent order must have been a bad batch. Had zero flavor and had a totally different consistency than prior cans. Mixed poorly as well. Guess the quality contrarily with this brand is suspect so I'll never buy from them again

I actually had the watermelon as a free sample and they are pretty good. Not gritty, no nasty smell, easy to mix in water. A bit sweet so I wouldn't mix with juice.

Got a sample of the fruit punch, don't usually like fruit punch flavored drinks but this was tasty. Really felt the extra energy boost too, which was great after limited sleep prior to leg day.
Feb 3, 2016
I actually have the fruit punch version of this, but it's such a good tasting product, to me tastes like sugared out kool aid. I've order two tubs of this for $36 not even kidding on a**zon. Anyway the point being is that I have used this product and it is very beneficial, I typically drink during the workout so i can have better recovery.

NEON sport kinetic BCAA is a pretty great product. I've been taking it for about a week now, I drink it while I'm lifting through the lift, I drink a scoop of it during dinner and a scoop during breakfast. I have 1-2 off days a week, during those days I consume about 2 servings of this. It has really improved strength, the building of my muscle and I know it's not a pre workout supplement, but while lifting and drinking this, it feels like my muscles are stronger and I can go the one extra rep. This product is made by cellucor though and they're obviously always a top 4 pwo with the C4. So there might be something to it. Had watermelon in 30 servings, really good stuff! Got a sample packet of the fruit punch, would've ordered that if it weren't sold out, it honestly taste like Hawaiian Punch. This is a great product, I recommend it completely!! Get SWOLL!!!
Jan 26, 2016
they keep sending me free samples of this when i order my protein. it tasted OK but i'd rather regular water. it also didn't seem to mix very quickly and easily. ultimately has kind of a chalky texture and i prefer flavor packets like crystal light or something else instead. if you need BCAA's and can't actually supplement protein itself (which contains BCAA's) then i can see where this would help.
Jan 20, 2016
I got this as a sample with my order, the Fruit Punch. I don't know how well it delivers the BCAA's not really sure how to know that, but the ad says it taste great and IT IS NOT LYING! The Fruit Punch is Awesome, I love it, only problem is it is not available right now, maybe it will be back in stock soon.
Jan 16, 2016
WOW! I have had such bad experiences with BCAAs that I am usually very picky with them. I got a free one serving packet of this with some other BCAAs that I ordered, and decided to try this first. The taste IS AMAZING! No after taste! Great Energy! It is so tasty, I'm still in shock at how good this was! After I finish the canister of BCAAs I ordered, I'll be ordering 30 servings of this!! Highly Recommended!

This is actually pretty good. I would suggest (as with my workouts) that you do the double scoop. I'll drink this throughout the day and during my workouts. As for the taste, it's very easy to drink. If you can add ice or chill it, do that. But it's so tasty that you'd want to drink it all the time. When I double it, I find that I am less sore the next day after my workout.

HUNLOCK CREEK, Pa. - As state House speaker and Democratic leader, Bill DeWeese held forth many nights at Harrisburg's priciest restaurants, dining on prime rib and fine wine on a lobbyist's dime.
On a recent afternoon, in a prison 120 miles from the Capitol, DeWeese carefully peeled a handful of spinach leaves from a container, savoring every bite.
"I never get salad here," said DeWeese, now inmate KK-1888.
Until his downfall in a 2012 corruption case, DeWeese was among the Capitol's most colorful characters and power brokers. On Sunday, he is expected to leave prison.

Linux Multimedia Guide

Reviewer: Michael J. Hammel
I picked up my copy of The Linux Multimedia Guide by Jeff Tranter back in December of last year, the same month it hit the shelves of my local computer book store. I wrote a fairly supportive review of the text in my "Graphics Muse" column in the Linux Gazette, right after having put to bed my multimedia chapter for the Unix Web Server Book. At the time I thought I understood multimedia fairly well, since the research for my book had been fairly thorough.
When Linux Journal contacted me about doing a review of this text, I jumped at the chance. I figured I could just spiff up my old review and pass it along. It took some time to get around to doing this "spiffing", and in the intervening period, I realized that this wasn't fair. I needed to go back and re-evaluate the review and the text. Linux users deserve up-to-date information. Besides, I had learned quite a bit more about multimedia.
As it turns out, most of my initial inspection was right on the money. Jeff's book covers a wide range of material related to the creation and use of multimedia files with respect to the Linux operating system. The text is approximately 350 pages, including source code listings for a number of sample multimedia applications. As usual, O'Reilly provides copies of the source from their ftp site. Jeff's coverage of multimedia is thorough, although it lacks detail in a few areas and provides information on subjects that may not be necessary for most multimedia-application developers.
When I first discovered this book, I thought "Rats, Jeff beat me to it." Much of what Jeff covers is listed in my own Linux Graphics mini-HOWTO (LGH); however, a number of items, such as audio, are not covered by the LGH. There is more detail about video formats and tools and detailed programming considerations for various hardware (CD-ROMs, joysticks and sound devices). All of these make the Linux Multimedia Guide a good addition to the O'Reilly family of Unix books. The text is decidedly aimed at developers and administrators. The actual use, from an end-user perspective, of the various applications is not covered in any serious detail by this text.
The Linux Multimedia Guide is divided into five sections:
Introduction to Multimedia
User's Guide
A Survey of Multimedia Applications
Multimedia Programmer's Guide
The first section introduces the reader to the various concepts involved with multimedia such as the CD-ROMs, image file formats and sound files. The chapters are generally brief, and the one on audio is quite informative. Jeff is the originator and maintainer of the Linux Sound HOWTO, and his experience shows in his coverage of audio issues. There is a discussion on audio file formats as well as a comparison of a few popular sound cards available for Linux.
Section two opens with a discussion on hardware requirements for doing multimedia on Linux systems. Most of this section centers on either the CD-ROM driver or the Linux sound driver, known at various times as Voxware, TASD and OSS Lite and now available commercially from 4Front Technologies (http://www.4front-tech.com/). There is also a short chapter on the joystick driver.
The second longest section, "A Survey of Multimedia Applications", covers applications for the various forms of multimedia. There are chapters on sound and music applications, graphics and animation applications, hypermedia applications and games. When I first reviewed this text, I hadn't really considered games as real multimedia applications, mostly because I seldom play games on my computer. I now realize that was a mistake—one need only look at the big computer retail chains' shelves of MS and Mac games to realize this fact. Games implemented as network applications using Java, JavaScript and the new Tcl/Tk plug-in for Netscape are not covered, but general X Windows, SVGA and command-line style games are discussed briefly.
The third section is very similar to the LGH in that the chapters provide the program names and URLs associated with them (if any). The number of applications covered is less than in the LGH, but there are better descriptions of the applications in the book; plus Jeff covers games and audio applications that the LGH does not.
Chapter fourteen opens the fourth section, the "Multimedia Programmer's Guide". This section is the longest in the book and covers all the devices discussed earlier. Other chapters in this section cover some of the available graphics and windowing toolkits available to multimedia developers. One chapter contains three sample applications.
I didn't say much about this section in my first review but I need to do so now. First, the chapter on programming sound devices is quite good and the sample programs easy to follow. If you're going to program sound for your applications, you definitely should read this chapter.
The chapters on programming the joystick and CD-ROM devices are out of date (the joystick chapter) or irrelevant (CD-ROM) for current multimedia applications. I say this because the future of multimedia on Linux is through X Windows, not SVGA. Joysticks and other pointing devices should be programmed through the X Input Extension (which XFree86 3.3 now supports and the commercial X Server vendors Metro-X and Xi Graphics are rumored to be adding soon) and not via direct management of the device. To be fair, Jeff's book did come out before this support was publicly released by XFree86, and it is only recently that developers have started to make wide use of this server extension.
A CD-ROM's association with multimedia applications is nothing more than another file system, accessed using the usual file system APIs. In general, multimedia-application developers do not need to know how to write drivers for the CD drives. Device driver information is not generally provided in texts on multimedia for other platforms (except for unusual devices). Again, to be fair, I'm not certain whether information on how to write drivers for new CD drives is provided in other texts. This chapter's appearance in the Linux Multimedia Guide is not a detriment to the text, but it is extraneous to multimedia-application developers.
Chapter 17's discussion on graphics and windowing toolkits provides some good reference material but not much detail. It would have been nice to see Jeff take a stance on which toolkits might be most beneficial for developers to start with or at least examine more closely. Also, Jeff missed any reference to OpenGL. Of all the toolkits he mentions, only Java is likely to be of greater interest than OpenGL to Linux multimedia developers. OpenGL and Java are widely accepted standards (real or de facto) whereas most of the other toolkits mentioned are, at best, simply multi-platform. OpenGL is available from both commercial X server vendors (Xi Graphics and Metro-X) using software acceleration only (with hardware acceleration planned) and is also available via Brian Paul's terrific Mesa/GL package.
In general, I find the Linux Multimedia Guide a good reference text with a moderate degree of developer tutorials. Unlike many of the books available for Linux, this text provides a detailed explanation of the various programming interfaces; it is a useful tool beyond the simple "what is this and where do I get it" that many of the HOWTOS provide. The main drawback that I see is that, like most other Linux texts, this text does not provide a user's perspective on any of the tools listed. If Linux is ever to go beyond a developers-only platform, there will need to be detailed user's guides for well-known applications. Still, Jeff does a good job covering the extent of a large topic. Although not likely to be of much interest to experienced developers, I have no problem recommending this book for the beginner or the intermediate user or developer.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide
