The company logo at the middle top side of the keyboard does appear a bit weird; the black logo is being devoured by the black color of the keyboard and the text is virtually unreadable. A silver logo would be much more suitable to the theme of the keyboard.
Multimedia controls can be accessed through the top right side of the keyboard. Four keys control media navigation (Play/Pause, Stop, Forward and Back) while a fifth key above them serves as the mute button. A metallic wheel next to the mute key controls the volume levels.
Three small indicator LEDs can be seen between the multimedia controls and the Windows key lock button. Corsair is using discreet white LEDs, matching the futuristic theme of the keyboard. Next to the windows lock key, there is a key to control the brightness level and another to control which keys will be lit.
A USB 2.0 port can be found at the back side of the keyboard, which can be very handy. Next to the USB port there is a switch which can adjust the polling rate of the keyboard from 1000Hz down to basic BIOS mode. Corsair informed us that this is for compatibility purposes and only users with old keyboards and systems are likely to fiddle with that switch.
Corsair installed four height adjustment legs instead of only two, allowing users to lift both the rear and front part of the keyboard. Lifting the front of the keyboard can reduce fatigue when using the same set of keys for several hours (gaming).

The right-hander took a no-hitter into the eighth inning of USF's 5-1 victory over Eastern Illinois in front of a crowd of 850 at USF Baseball Stadium. Lovecchio gave up one run on three hits and struck out two in eight full innings. The junior transfer now leads the Bulls with 3 wins on the season. "When you're struggling offensively you better have good pitching, good starting pitching. Lovecchio gave up a hit in the eighth inning. So the story today is Lovecchio all the way. He pitched a great ball game," said head coach Lelo Prado. Ray Delphey pitched a scoreless ninth inning to help the Bulls improve to 10-6. The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the sixth when Todd Brazeal's fielder's choice sent Daniel Rockhold home. USF added three more runs in the seventh inning on a two-run double by Rockhold and an RBI single by Buddy Putnam. Eastern Illinois got onto the scoreboard in the top of the eighth, but the Bulls kept a four-run lead after a fielding error sent Chris Norton home in the bottom half of the inning. This is the second time this series that a USF pitcher has taken a no-hitter into the seventh inning. Derrick Stultz gave up one hit in 7 innings of the Bulls' 4-0 win on Friday.

What Kevin Garnett's return means for CelticsSaturday, June 30th, 2012
Kevin Garnett arrived in Boston five years ago with the promise of rebirth for a franchise that had grown stale. He was a savior then — plucked from Minnesota for almost half a roster's worth of young players and draft picks ' and he was treated as such.
On a team of prideful individuals, Garnett's persona stood out as the defining one. Dedicated to the point of insanity and private to the point of aloofness, Garnett kept close watch over his basketball family and kept everyone else at bay. Something changed over the course of those five years, culminating last season in a Garnett that was slightly more accessible and endearingly human.
No one could have predicted five years ago that Garnett would ultimately become an institution, but here we are. He's become one of us: a Bostonian in more than just an address and a Celtic in more than just a uniform. When his contract expired, there was never a question of going anywhere else, it was only a matter of whether he'd come back for more.
We have our answer, as Garnett will sign a new deal, reportedly for three years and $34 million, roughly half the monetary value of his last contract, and assuring he will be in a Celtics uniform for almost a decade.
Garnett's new deal sets in motion an offseason that now takes on a defined shape. The Celtics are still contenders, and team president Danny Ainge has flexibility to build the rest of the roster. Salary cap economics being what they are, Ainge is limited to a degree, but he has a host of options at his disposal that weren't as obvious 24 hours ago. (more…)

A transmission belt from a car would have to be cropped and somehow re-connected to form a loop the correct size to fit a bicycle. Im unsure how you could do this to make a robust and smooth running belt.
Also -the tubing all seems too straight and of convenient widths to be taken out of a cars substructure. Im struggling to think where straight, tubular steel is used in cars to be honest.
Willing to be told differently by someone who knows better however.
A video from a new website, Bicycled Bikes, that claims to show bicycles being made out of scrapped cars has gone viral in recent days, appearing on dozens of trend-hunting and cycling websites. But is it all that it seems? We're not so sure.
When they say the bikes are 'recycled' out of cars, they're not kidding.
The belt drive? Made from a car's transmission belt. Bartape and the saddle cover? The vehicle's seat covers. The seat clamp? That's a door handle.
What we don't see is where exactly where the tubing comes from, and the wheels… well, they look to us like standard bicycle wheels.
As a concept, it's an interesting one, but we do have to wonder how good a bike it would be.
In fact, we're retaining some healthy scepticism, and strongly suspect that this ties in with some other as yet unrevealed wider marketing initiative.
It's possibly even a way of building a database of people who enter their email address in response to the invitation to "join the queue to get the first ones."
Helping fuel our suspicions is the fact that the film and website are the work of Lola Madrid, a creative agency based in the Spanish capital that is owned by advertising giant Lowe and Partners.
Lola Madrid counts some household names among its clients, including Unilever brands Magnum ice cream and Signal toothpaste.
Besides the mention of Lola Madrid, both the website and film are short on precise details of exactly who else is behind the initiative – there's a vague mention of bike shops being involved, plus the names of some of the creative brains behind it – where it is based, or other background.
Instead, the website has the embedded video with some text below about the philosophy behind it.
In fact, we can't help thinking this may simply be an exercise in seeing how far a viral campaign can reach, similar to the one that saw London agency Karmarama come under heavy criticism from the cycling community last year – albeit with a better copywriter and a message that is less likely to alienate bike riders.
If it does turn out to be exactly what it claims to be - a recycling initative that turns cars into bikes - we'll happily apologise for our not taking it at face value.
Past experience teaches us however that when something's dreamt up by employees of a firm owned by an ad agency that deals with some of the biggest companies on the planet, often all is not as it seems.
What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.
Born in Scotland, Simon moved to London aged seven and now lives in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds with his miniature schnauzer, Elodie. He fell in love with cycling one Saturday morning in 1994 while living in Italy when Milan-San Remo went past his front door. A daily cycle commuter in London back before riding to work started to boom, he's been news editor at road.cc since 2009. Handily for work, he speaks French and Italian. He doesn't get to ride his Colnago as often as he'd like, and freely admits he's much more adept at cooking than fettling with bikes.

I was going to make a crack about this being the secret Halfords production facility, but actually the end product looks too good ( although who wants handlebar tape made of the leather from the seats of some clapped-out old limo that has been used for who knows what sleazy purposes over the years...)
But, yeah, it's some tedious ad campaign, so I call bullish*t.
roadcc you are spot on. This is just clever (or not so) marketing.
The website is just a "capture" page. I work in internet marketing and I can tell you when the sole purpose of a site is to capture the persons email address, it isn't just to add them to a waiting list. Its to add them to a prospects list for many things.
You're just giving them free advertising putting a link on this page.
Its clever from that point of view, viral marketing gone this big is like a jackpot for a marketeer building an email list of people interested in buying bikes/cycling.
I get enough junk on my email as is, including your fantasy cycling stuff, which has no unsubscribe link (very bad!) so will not be giving them my email.

In this viral video starring Kevin Bacon (watch here if it's not loading on your browser), the Flashdance* star attempts to explain to young people of today what life was like in the 80s.
While the video was made to advertise something or other, we were rather taken by its bold statement that "awareness of 80s culture … is in decline" – particularly among millenials. It's certainly true that 80s nostaligia isn't what it was – the 90s revival has been in full swing for a while now, perhaps making it time for an 80s revival revival.
With that in mind, we're setting the following challenge for our readers:
• Create a playlist of 10 songs – either on YouTube or Spotify – that you'd use to explain the 1980s to someone too young to experience them first time around
• Post a link to your playlist in the comment thread below - along with some explanation of how you chose the songs
How you define 'explain' the 80s is entirely up to you – you can focus on one particular genre, make your playlist all pop, or all indie, or all metal … you can aim for an accurate portrait of the sounds the defined the decade, or go for an entirely subjective niche.
We'll listen to all your submissions, and, for the person whose playlist we like the best, we'll crown them winner next week and send a few CDs out in the post.

Although a light film, making it extremely easy to lay, this material is surprisingly strong. Peg it down at the beginning of the growing season to suppress the weeds, and help keep warmth and moisture in. The film will slowly biodegrade harmlessly into the soil over a period of 10-16 weeks, and can simply be dug in, with no mess to dispose of at the end of the growing season. As it transforms into nothing more than water and carbon dioxide, the mulch leaves no nasty residues.Used widely in agriculture and nurseries, the mulch is an excellent ground cover for allotments, the veg plot, beds, borders and even pots and containers.Measures 5m x 1.5m. See the wide range of garden fabrics, organic pest control and much more besides in our dedicated kitchen garden shop.

News Release Article from
Bridgewater Takes Back The Riverbank
Street and waterscape infrastructure improvements coming to Bridgewater
January 5, 2016 – Bridgewater, N.S. – Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency
Bridgewater was born when settlements on the east and west sides of the LaHave River were joined by a bridge around 1825. The river has been at the heart of the community's identity ever since.
Today the Government of Canada announced an investment of $1,480,097 to help Bridgewater "take back the riverbank" through a series of streetscape and waterscape upgrades that will improve downtown infrastructure and create a large open space for future public use.
The Take Back The Riverbank project is overseen by the Town of Bridgewater's Town Council, the municipality's Engineering and Planning departments, and the Downtown Planning Advisory Committee.
The first stage of redevelopment began in November with the take-down of the old South Parkade structure, which will eventually allow a large section of the waterfront to be opened up for public access. In the spring of 2016, work will begin on the next project elements, which includes improvements to street-level curbing and sidewalks, enhanced parking areas, and the construction of the riverside promenade and public gathering space. This work is also happening in conjunction with important upgrades to the underground infrastructure.
The project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2016.
The Government of Canada contribution is provided through ACOA's Innovative Communities Fund. The Town of Bridgewater is investing $1,263,897 in the project.
Quick Facts:
- Bridgewater is the largest town in the South Shore region.
- The Take Back The Riverbank project is downtown Bridgewater's most significant renovation in 50 years.
- Champlain Bridge, known locally as The Old Bridge, as well as at least one lane of King Street will remain open during construction.
- The new public space created by the project will be wheelchair-accessible and bike-friendly.
"The Government of Canada is proud to support Bridgewater as it embraces change and renewal that will revitalize its downtown core, benefitting local businesses and community residents alike. Canada's economic vitality is fuelled by strong communities such as Bridgewater and the exceptional people who live and work there—including all those who are making this project a reality."
- The Honourable Navdeep Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development
"Residents of the Town of Bridgewater have long known that this community is a great place to raise a family and this project is making this even more of a reality. The Town of Bridgewater is focused on downtown rejuvenation. Modernizing the commercial hub will help retain businesses and attract more residents and visitors to the riverfront area. Downtown revitalization in a variety of other municipalities has yielded positive results. Civic leadership is the foundation of this project that is firmly fixed on Bridgewater's future development."
- Bernadette Jordan, Member of Parliament for South Shore-St. Margarets
"With Take Back The Riverbank, we're looking at recapturing what our long-time residents will remember as the heyday of King Street. In doing so, we're going to be providing a beautiful space and opening up a key part of our riverbank so that it will be accessible to people of all ages and abilities. It's a project that will benefit our residents and visitors, and help to grow our business community by renewing King Street as a destination."
- David Walker, Mayor, Town of Bridgewater

There are about 100 people there and nine chiefs - each chief means there is a male umbrella like hut as well as a female - not hut looking hut built in remembrance of their ancestors
For social status the villagers slaughter a Water Buffalo or pig for a festival feasts - the antlers and jaw bows then adorn their front porch showing with pride their hard work and sacrifices. They say if asked that there are 100,000 people from the village. This counts ancestors as well and those living elsewhere who are sure to flood home for the festivals.
The day I visited there would be a festival for the celebration of re-roofing one of the homes. The villagers were busy cutting a new bamboo frame and binding piles of grass to reconstruct a roof that lasts up to 35 years. Missionaries arrived here long ago to bring Catholicism though it is mixed with their traditional animism beliefs. For instance the belief that the village as a whole was once a ship - it sailed in from the sea and was blocked from further progress by the mountain in front so their it stopped and grew roots. The water is long gone but for the sea you can see off in the distance from the back end of the village.
The ladies were weaving on rudimentary looms and spinning wheels. And found drying in the sun around the village is coffee beans, cocoa seeds, cloves, bay leaves and bundles of cinnamon and vanilla pods were for sale.

The boys at Road & Track magazine got their hands on our 818R test car. They put out an on-line article with an expanded article due out in the magazine shortly (they visited the plant, took pics of parts and cars, etc). here's the article link.
Factory Five Racing 818 Race Car First Drive - On Track Drive of the - Road & Track
Here are somne cool quotes:
"It has enough pace to match modern Corvettes and Porsches in a straight line." Road&Track
"Steering is direct and slop-free, directing the 818's low-sniffing nose with inch-level precision without power assistance. The brakes, too, are entirely unboosted, requiring significant pressure but delivering trustworthy feedback up to the locking point."
Road & Track
"Factory Five's newest offering is a credible and not-all-that-crude alternative to the Lotus Exige S or Porsche Boxster Spyder. After a dozen or so laps of Gingerman, hearing the frantic boxer blat behind me while fellow trackday drivers fell back on the straights and the corners as if their rear bumpers were connected by rubber bands to the 818's square-tubed frame, I'm ready to believe."

The Yale Science & Engineering Association, Inc. (YSEA) honored Yale School of Engineering & Applied Science Dean T. Kyle Vanderlick, life-sciences entrepreneur David I. Scheer and Yale Professor Daniel A. Spielman at its annual awards dinner on Thursday, April 25, 2013. Accomplished undergraduate science and engineering students and retiring faculty were also recognized at the event.
Dean Vanderlick received the YSEA Award for Meritorious Service to Yale University. The Thomas E. Golden, Jr. Professor of Engineering, Vanderlick spearheaded the establishment of the current Yale School of Engineering & Applied Science with a goal of creating a culture of engineering and collaboration on campus to facilitate cutting-edge research and educational excellence. Her own research in the department of Chemical & Environmental Engineering focuses on the creation of new membrane-based structures and superstructures using biological and chemical building blocks.
David I. Scheer, '84 M.S., received YSEA's award for Distinguished Service to Industry, Commerce & Education, which honors a member of the business community who has given outstanding service to science or engineering at Yale. Scheer, a life-sciences entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist, is chairman of the board of directors of Aegerion Pharmaceuticals, Achillion Pharmaceutics and Tengion, Inc. He is also the vice chairman of the Long Wharf Theatre Board of Trustees.
The YSEA Award for Advancement of Basic and Applied Science went to Daniel A. Spielman '92 B.A., the Henry Ford II Professor of Computer Science and Mathematics at Yale and a Fellow of the MacArthur Foundation. Spielman's research focuses on design and analysis of algorithms and heuristics, machine learning, smoothed analysis and combinatorial scientific computing. Spielman was recently named co-director of the new Yale Institute of Network Science, an initiative that brings together researchers in engineering, computer science, the social sciences, biology, math, physics and medicine to study individual and collective human behavior.
The Yale Science & Engineering Association, founded in 1914, connects alumni with students, the university and each other to strengthen Yale's science and engineering community.

Fruit Diets.
Has anyone tried a fruit diet? I have been researching about it and it seems easy. Im kind of a picky eater and only like apples, grapes, asian pears(at HEB), and strawberries. Dont really like bananas or the others. So im trying to think of a diet i can try out for a few weeks to see if I can lose some weight. I weighed myself a few weeks ago and im pushing 289 and wanna be thinner then that. I dont really exercise but i do deliver pizza some im constantly walking everyday. Anyone have a good fruit diet plan or a link i can look at that maybe i can try?
The fruit diet is super high in carbs and sugar.
Ill check into it.
Posted via FF Mobile
Dont understand the diet or the site lol
the only fruits really worth a damn in modern society are berries. A vast majority of fruits have been engineered to be sugar bombs basically. Fruit wasn't always this sweet. Atkins and Paleoithic diet are really similar. Lift weights and do that and watch fat melt.
I'm of the opinion that any 'diet' you choose will ultimately fail.
You need a lifestyle change.
I'm also of the opinion that there's no need to cut out a certain element of your diet short of the BS and processed crap...i.e. don't cut out most the fat, or most the carbs. Your body NEEDS these. Instead, watch how much of each you eat, and make sure what you do eat are GOOD. There is a thing as good carbs and good fat. Your body NEEDS these to function properly.
That and just not eating as much...there are people who lost weight eating strictly donuts and ice cream because they limited their intake to 1500 calories per day. That's obviously not healthy but it proves the point...don't eat as much, and eat better foods and the weight will come off.
But anyways my main point is to not diet...but change your lifestyle. Because if you diet, the minute you go off the diet the weight WILL come back. I know this, I've done more diets then most, with no results. It's about making permanent changes.
There's a guy at work that eats nothing but fruit. He spends more time in the bathroom than working.
eat what ever you like in a moderation and exercise. That is the best diet.
bah to all you modern society diet people. Eat what man was meant to. . . . very simple.
You will crap like a wild animal if you eat nothing but fruit. I've looked into a lot of different diets and cleanse things people tell me about mainly out of curiosity. If you must do some kind of cleanse this is the best one I've seen http://drbenkim.com/full-body-cleanse-diet.htm
I have never tried this and likely never will. Similar to Joeywhat's advice my diet solution is to eat smaller meals, less meat, more fruits, raw vegs, nuts. Grilled instead of fried, wheat crackers instead of chips, dried fruits and granola instead of cookies, tea instead of coffee. Limit sodium intake, no fast food, no sweets, limited carbonated beverages and make them diet.

The most transparent administration ever has just invoked Executive Privilege in refusing to allow Congressman Issa and Senator Grassley to question former NSA White House staffer, Kevin O'Reilly regarding Operation Fast and Furious.
Kathryn Ruemmler, counsel to the president, denied Issa's demand to speak with O'Reilly.
Over six months ago, the White House produced documents responsive to your prior request for communications between Mr. O'Reilly and ATF agent William Newell that relate to "Operation Fast and Furious" or any ATF gun trafficking cases in Phoenix, AZ… none of these limited communications between Mr. O'Reilly and Mr. Newell revealed the existence of any of the inappropriate investigative tactics at issue in your inquiry, let alone any decision to allow guns to "walk."
O'Reilly was transferred to Clinton's State Department in late spring 2011 and then sent to Iraq in September after documents released to the House Oversight Committee revealed extensive communications between himself and ATF Special Agent in Charge of the Phoenix office Bill Newell who led Fast and Furious.
Emails show Newell was in routine contact with Kevin O'Reilly, then White House director of North American Affairs for the National Security Council.

Dangerous Surf, Rip Currents Expected This Week
Ventura County, Santa Barbara South Coast under High Surf Advisory
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - *** High Surf Advisory in effect now through 6 pm Friday ***
Damaging surf with very strong rip currents and significant beach erosion likely across south and southeast facing beaches of southwest California beginning through Friday.
Hurricane Marie in the eastern Pacific has been downgraded to a Category 2 hurricane Tuesday morning and will continue to track to the northwest and weaken as it moves northwest around western side of a strong ridge of high pressure.
The main impact from Marie for Southern California will be damaging high surf, well exceeding surf heights seen from Tropical Storm Lowell.
Surf is expected to build late Tuesday morning and peaking late in the afternoon into Wednesday. Breakers of 10 to 15 feet will be possible across south and southeast facing beaches of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. Santa Barbara County's southeastern South Coast could see 6 to 10 feet.
Some areas at risk for very large surf are beaches exposed south to southeast facing shores, such as Port Hueneme and Point Mugu in Ventura County, and Zuma Beach, the Malibu area, and Long Beach through Palos Verdes in Los Angeles County. The eastern portion of the Santa Barbara South Coast may also see unusually large surf and strong rip currents during this event.
Major impacts from this event include the potential for structure damage, significant beach erosion, very strong and dangerous rip currents, waves overtopping jetties, and minor coastal flooding during times of high tides.
In addition to strong rip currents, strong long-shore currents are also expected resulting in dangerous swimming conditions. Swimmers and inexperienced surfers are advised to stay out of the water during this time period.

A Rotorua man who kidnapped his girlfriend then dragged her behind a car for almost 2km told police he put her in the car boot "to show her that he loved her".
Sonny Te Aramoana Waiti, 26, appeared in the Rotorua District Court today, handcuffed and guarded by three officers.
Through his lawyer Harry Edward he pleaded guilty to a charge of kidnapping 37-year-old Rotorua mother Ana Eriepa on May 25.
According to the police summary of facts, Waiti and Ms Eriepa were in a relationship and had been living together for about three weeks since Waiti was released from prison.
On the night before the incident they travelled to Tauranga and bought a new car. Waiti had been consuming alcohol and drugs on the trip and had become "paranoid".
Around mid-morning on May 25 Waiti arrived at Ms Eriepa's Clinkard Ave home, drunk and driving erratically. The couple argued and Waiti ordered Ms Eriepa to drive him around Rotorua, then to his family's rural property on State Highway 30 south of the city.
While at that property Waiti picked up Ms Eriepa and put her in the boot, locking her inside. He then drove off, with Ms Eriepa yelling at him from inside the boot.
About 1.30pm the car was seen by several witnesses driving erratically on State Highway 1 between Tokoroa and Putaruru. They then saw the boot open and Ms Eriepa fall out.
She later told police she felt the car swerving and was fearful of the car crashing. She found a cable that allowed her to open the boot and "sought the opportunity to escape".
The car was travelling between 90 and 100km/h when she climbed out. However one of her ankles got caught between the tow ball and the bumper, trapping her. She was dragged over the rough chip seal road for at least 1.66km.
Other motorists tried to alert Waiti but he continued driving at speeds in excess of 100km/h. Eventually another driver pulled up beside him but Waiti gave him the finger and swerved towards him.
That swerving motion flung Ms Eriepa free and she came to rest 50m away in the middle of the road.
Waiti continued driving but was arrested a short time later where police noted his behaviour was confrontational and he appeared to be under the influence of substances.
He initially denied wrongdoing but later told police he had been released from prison three weeks earlier and had been smoking cannabis and methamphetamine continuously since then.
"He thought the victim was 'cheating' on him in their relationship and he put her in the car boot as he wanted to show her that he loved her," the summary stated.
Ms Eriepa was seriously injured and remains in hospital. Her left leg has been amputated below the knee. Other injuries included a dislocated wrist, deep scalp lacerations, a degloving injury to a foot, fractured femur of her left leg, extensive skin loss around a buttock with the glute muscle torn off and multiple abrasions over the majority of her body.
Waiti was remanded in custody for sentencing in the Rotorua District Court on August 23.

Content is king again. Marketers create content trails for prospects and customers to discover our products and brands, which should inspire a purchase or conversion. Increasingly, we are judged by the effectiveness of each channel's contribution to conversion – and content becomes the glue by which we optimize awareness and demand generation in our socially-networked world. That's a big incentive to make the channels work in sync, supporting and energizing each other. (I'll talk about attribution in a future column, but meanwhile check out this excellent column by fellow ClickZ columnist Ed Henrich.)
A digital lifecycle approach works best in a multichannel environment – in large part because customers prefer to interact with brands via multiple channels. No one channel can take the prospect all the way from discovery through close and satisfaction (and renewal). At the early part of the relationship, search marketing is great for introducing many leads to the brand or product promise, but quickly loses track of them once they hit the landing page. E-mail marketing can pick up the ball and run with it to a conversion, both working alone as well as in tandem with social marketing and inside sales.
I spoke last week at SES NY on this topic, as part of the Online Marketing Institute track. (Please ping me if you want my deck).
What's the e-mail gal doing at a search conference? Just talking about how a multichannel approach can improve the return on your search investment. E-mail and search are actually sort of like distant cousins – both alike and wildly different in equal measure. They have similar attributes like targeting, timing, and clutter. Yet, they are fundamentally different. Search is a pull medium and e-mail is push. Effective e-mail is based on permission – an explicit opt-in to the relationship. E-mail is more of a content creator for dialog and relationship, while search is really good at optimizing content to be found.
Like two puzzle pieces, together they create a continuum of touchpoints that build a relationship with the prospect/customer. I'm a firm believer that all channels contribute to synergy, which lifts the results of the whole marketing mix. There are three primary ways that e-mail can extend your search relationship:
- Data: While search marketing is rich in user intent and behavior data, e-mail marketing is rich at the subscriber level. E-mail has a convenient tag (the e-mail address), which connects with CRM (define), e-commerce, sales force automation systems (SFA), and contact management systems and lets us track conversion easily. Similarly, if search landing pages are optimized to collect e-mail addresses, a report can be run to determine if the keywords are attracting prospects with a high propensity to convert.
- Continue the relationship: The most important job of the search landing page is to collect the e-mail permission. All the better if that is tied to the conversion (e.g., white paper download or free trial.) Please do not assume permission. Be very clear if you will send additional e-mail information. Sell them on the value; don't sandbag them.
- Welcome and engage: Customize the welcome e-mail experience to the context of the initial search. This takes discipline. Too often, we marketers want to tell all prospects everything about our solutions in the first communication. That isn't helpful or necessary. Ease the prospect in by focusing on the information you know is important to them – what they searched on. Relevancy in the first message earns the right to send more messages.
Consider offering short-term e-mail conversations as an alternate to your newsletter. Offer prospects from any source the option to sign up for three to seven e-mail messages in a series about a particular topic. Set the cadence to match the lifecycle stage. Researchers of productivity software may welcome a daily message for four days, if it helps them evaluate vendor options. Someone interested in a Webinar on business trends might love to get five once-a-week tips on how to plan out a strategy for business growth this year. The series needs to provide the specific value promised (tips on business growth), but certainly can also sell. For example, suggest the appropriateness of your brand and product for solving key challenges, offer a quiz or poll to identify latent needs, or offer additional downloads. We've seen these series result in a 50 percent conversion of inquiries to sales call, as well as 75 percent conversion to the ongoing e-mail newsletter file. However, if all you do is hammer a sales message, you will likely see low response.

On this episode of The Young and the Restless, Chloe wears a black blazer and a beige pleated skirt. Remember that one time Brutus betrayed Caesar? Granted, Chloe's act of treason is insignificant compared to what is arguably one of the biggest acts of treachery in Shakespearean literature. Despite this, one can't help but notice several similarities between the two situations. For both respective parties, family plays a primary role as Chloe confesses to Kevin's brother Michael and Brutus betrays his uncle Caesar. Secondly, Portia persuades her husband Brutus to confide in her much like Chloe does of Kevin. The most notable similarity, however? Both traitors wear skirts. Gotta love that ancient Roman men's fashion, huh?

Ahhh Juzhaigou! I was there last fall and wow, that water. I also walked instead of taking the bus, and the initial 10 km were so peaceful, so getting to the first bus stop and the huge crowds was a bit of a shock, haha. So worth it though!
I just left you a long comment but I think wordpress ate it!?! Anyway, I am so glad you had a great time at Zhou Ma's. It is such a fun place to stay and they really look after you! The barley wine was great (and definitely alcoholic haha!). I completely agree about Jiuzhaigou – it was so beautiful and worth going but definitely not a place to get away from it all. We also walked as much as we could, the buses were too crowded anyway!
I have no idea why I believed them that there wasn't alcohol in it…. Thanks for recommending it, I had seen it in lonely planet but wasn't going to try it, but I'm so glad they did. They also called the bus driver to Chengdu so I didn't have to go to the bus station but could just get on when they passed. That's a lot nicer
Judging by the photos and your description I think I would have walked too instead of taking the bus otherwise I might have missed all these beautiful spots and comers that are difficult (if not impossible) to see from a bus. I don't recall seeing water as blue as that one, it does make you think that it's artificial if I have to be honest 🙂
Wow, the scenery's so amazing. How could I missed out this place when in China!? Wrrrr so angry now!!
I remember reading about this place when we were researching places to visit in China. I would LOVE to go for a wander (both on and off the boardwalk!) one day, but unfortunately we did not make it to Sichuan province during our last visit to China. I always think we need to support the beautiful places in China that the government is actually trying to preserve and protect since that so often seems to be the opposite of their instincts. Juizhaigou truly looks stunning, and while I don't think it's not the easiest place to reach, it certainly seems well worth the effort!
How gorgeous! The blue water is very pretty, but I love that one of your feet over the water too 🙂
Despite the rain, I see no umbrellas in your photos. Maybe rainy days are the way to go. I was in Jiuzhaigou on a beautiful sunny day surrounded by tiny grannies who all carried oversized umbrellas at the perfect height to take my eyes out. I got poked in the face so many times, by the end of the day I looked like I just got over a bout of smallpox.

The TREC Video Retrieval Evaluation (TRECVID) 2009 was a TREC-style video analysis and retrieval evaluation, the goal of which was to promote progress in content-based exploitation of digital video via open, metrics-based evaluation. 63 teams from various research organizations --- 28 from Europe, 24 from Asia, 10 from North America, and 1 from Africa --- completed one or more of four tasks: high-level feature extraction, search (fully automatic, manually assisted, or interactive), copy detection, or surveillance event detection. Test data for the search and feature tasks was about 280 hours of (MPEG-1) TV news magazine, science news, news reports, documentaries, educational programming, and archival video from the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. About 100 hours of video was available for search/feature system development. The combined 380 hours were used in the copy detection task. About 100 hours of airport surveillance video from the Image Library for Intelligent Detection Systems for Multi-Camera Tracking Training (i-LIDS MCTTR) provided by the UK Home Office was made available for training data in the 2009 surveillance event detection task. Systems were tested on about 15 hours of a new 50-hour test set from the same source. Results were scored by NIST for almost all tasks against human judgments. Feature and search submissions were evaluated based on partial manual judgments of the pooled submissions. Copy detection submissions were evaluated at NIST based on ground truth created automatically using tools donated by the INRIA-IMEDIA group. NIST evaluated the surveillance event detection results using ground truth created manually under contract by the Linguistic Data Consortium.

During controlled clinical trials, one case of overdose with pioglitazone was reported. A male patient took 120 mg per day for four days, then 180 mg per day for seven days. The patient denied any clinical symptoms during this period.
In the event of overdosage, appropriate supportive treatment should be initiated according to the patient's clinical signs and symptoms.
An overdosage of glimepiride, as with other sulfonylureas, can produce severe hypoglycemia. Mild episodes of hypoglycemia can be treated with oral glucose. Severe hypoglycemic reactions constitute medical emergencies requiring immediate treatment. Severe hypoglycemia with coma, seizure, or neurological impairment can be treated with glucagon or intravenous glucose. Continued observation and additional carbohydrate intake may be necessary because hypoglycemia may recur after apparent clinical recovery [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
- Initiation in patients with established NYHA Class III or IV heart failure [see BOXED WARNING].
- Use in patients with known hypersensitivity to pioglitazone, glimepiride or any other component of DUETACT [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS].
- Use in patients with known history of an allergic reaction to sulfonamide derivatives.
Reported hypersensitivity reactions with glimepiride include cutaneous eruptions with or without pruritus as well as more serious reactions (e.g., anaphylaxis, angioedema, Stevens-Johnsons Syndrome, dyspnea) [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS and ADVERSE REACTIONS]This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

Beet and Red Cabbage Slaw
Author: Nava
Recipe type: Salad
Cuisine: Raw / healthy
Prep time:
Total time:
Serves: 6
This vivid salad of grated beets and red cabbage, served in modest portions, makes a dazzling visual statement on the dinner plate.
- 3 to 4 medium beets (use a combination of red and golden beets, if desired) — see note
- ½ cup whole baby carrots, or peeled and coarsely chopped carrot
- ¼ medium head red cabbage
- Juice of ½ to 1 lemon, to taste
- 2 tablespoons agave nectar or pure maple syrup, or to taste
- 1 to 2 tablespoons minced fresh dill, or 1 teaspoon dried
- Pinch of salt
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- Grate the beets and carrots in a food processor using a medium-coarse grating blade.
- Cut the cabbage into chunks small enough to fit through your processor's feed tube and grate with the same blade.
- Combine the grated beets and cabbage in a serving container and dress to taste with the lemon juice and syrup. Stir well, then add the dill and salt and stir again.
- Let the salad stand for at least 15 minutes or so before serving. Taste again and adjust the lemon and sweetener if needed, then serve.
Note: Though completely raw beets are healthiest, to make them easier to peel and cut, cook or microwave them briefly — until you can pierce through maybe 1/2 inch past the surface. Once they're cool enough to handle, they'll be easier to peel and chop.

|Claude Julien not ready to 'blow up' Milan Lucic, Marc Savard, Nathan Horton line
|12.30.10 at 3:51 pm ET
As the Bruins prepare to take on the Thrashers at Philips Arena, they do so with two lines producing: the Blake Wheeler – David Krejci – Michael Ryder line and the energy line of Brad Marchand, Gregory Campbell, and Shawn Thornton. With Campbell reportedly under the weather and considered a game-time decision, they may not even have that. All the more reason for the team's top line to get going.
Since the post-Rancournament line shakeup (PRLS), the line of Milan Lucic, Marc Savard, and Nathan Horton has produced zilch. Savard and Horton picked up assists on Steven Kampfer's goal Tuesday night, but they did so when they were out there for the power play (the penalty expired seconds before the goal was scored). In the third period, Savard and Horton were shown the bench for a stretch of over seven minutes, and Horton finished the contest with a season-low 11:36.
Claude Julien told reporters that in trying to motivate a guy like Horton, you've got to know the player's personality and find a means of motivation that works with that. He's shown the players on the top line video and used other tactics. With many waiting on the trio to take the form many were excited about following the Horton trade, Julien also implied that patience could pay off.
"They've been together for three games. You have the choice of either working with them and trying to get that line going, because you know what the potential is, or you blow it up," Julien said. "I don't think we're ready to blow it up right this second. Were going to try to work with these guys and hopefully get them going, because if they do, they're going to be a dangerous trio."
Tim Thomas was reportedly first off the ice in the morning skate, so in the most unsurprising news of the day, he'll be in net. Quick: when was the last time Tuukka Rask started a game? If you said the Buffalo game 15 days ago, you have a good memory.
|Mark Recchi scores game-winning goal in final 20 seconds to lead Bruins past Lightning
|12.28.10 at 10:12 pm ET
Mark Recchi sent a wrist shot past Dan Ellis with 19.7 seconds remaining in regulation to give the Bruins a 4-3 victory over the Lightning on Tuesday night in Tampa.
Recchi's goal was the B's second power play tally of the night, as the Bruins were on the man advantage late in the contest thanks to a Steven Stamkos boarding call for a hit on Gregory Campbell.
Michael Ryder, Steven Kampfer, and Brad Marchand scored in the first, second, and third periods, respectively to give the Bruins leads in each period. Kampfer's second-period tally was his first career NHL goal, while Marc Savard got his 700th point in assisting it.
The Lightning were able to tie the game following each of the B's first three goals, getting tallies from Stamkos, Vincent Lecavalier and Martin St. Louis.
Tim Thomas made 31 saves on the night and improved to 18-4-3 on the season. The Bruins will travel to Atlanta to face the Thrashers on Thursday.
– Kampfer's goal was the latest reminder that he has been just what the Bruins needed when they traded Matt Hunwick. Monday night's blunder that led to David Booth's was the only time the 22-year-old's style of play has cost the B's, and he remains their best (and only) puck-moving D-man.
– The Bruins got Brad Marchand back. After missing three games with soreness caused by the crushing hit he took from P.K. Subban. Daniel Paille filled in admirably, but Marchand's return to the lineup saw him grab his fifth goal, giving him as many as Tyler Seguin.
– The Bruins were able to draw penalties early on the penalty kill twice. With Milan Lucic in the box for hooking in the first, the Lightning power play lasted just five seconds before Stamkos went off for tripping Zdeno Chara.
In the second period, Blake Wheeler went off for high-sticking Dominic Moore, but Teddy Purcell was in the box 16 seconds later for holding. On the night, the B's were 2-for-6 on the power play, while the Lightning went 1-for-5.
From the WEEI.com Stat Truck: In firing the shot that's rebound led to Marchand's goal, Shawn Thornton picked up his second assist of the season. That ties him with Thomas, who also has a pair of helpers.
– Milan Lucic has now gone five games without a point. Prior to this stretch, which began Dec. 18 against the Capitals, Lucic had only gone two games without a point once. Lucic is a minus-2 throughout the streak. His linemate isn't faring much better, as Nathan Horton had a season-low 11:36 of ice time, including a 3:09 first period.
– While a couple of rookies shined in Kampfer and Marchand, Seguin has been very quiet. He failed to get a shot on goal, and has now gone 10 games without a goal. He has just two points in those games.
– The B's blew three leads in the game. The game featured plenty of back-and-forth, but the Bruins had the opportunity to close it out following Marchand's goal in the third and failed to do so until the Stamkos penalty.
The Bruins, fresh off of jumping into first place in the Northeast division with their 3-2 shootout win over the Panthers on Monday, will take on the Lightning, who lead the Southeast division, on Tuesday night. It's the second of five straight road games for the Bruins, and the second of three games in four days.
The last time the Bruins faced the Lightning, they won in blowout fashion, crushing Tampa Bay, 8-1, at TD Garden on Dec. 2. The two teams have split the season series thus far, as the Lightning grabbed a 3-1 win at St. Pete Times Forum on Nov. 22.
The Lightning have won six of their last seven games, while the Bruins are winners of their last two.
Tuukka Rask and Brad Marchand were the only Bruins to take the ice on Tuesday morning, suggesting it will be Tim Thomas in net.
– The Lightning are 10-2-2 in Tampa and are a perfect 4-0-0 in home games this month.
– The Bruins are 10-5-1 on the road this season. Their shootout win on Monday was just their second road victory of the month, the first of which came on Dec. 1 in Philadelphia.
– Steven Stamkos is back on track following his statistical hiccup that lasted from late November into the beginning of the month. He has scored seven goals in his last eight games and has 28 on the season.
– Milan Lucic's scoreless streak has now reached four games and he has one point in the last six contests. Lucic had two points when the B's faced the Lightning on Dec. 2.
– David Krejci and Michael Ryder starred in that 8-1 Bruins victory over the Lightning earlier this month with three points apiece. Both Krejci and Ryder had a pair of points in Monday's win over the Panthers, and with their line with Blake Wheeler clicking, they're certainly a couple of players worth keeping an eye on.
– After having three goals entering last Thursday's game vs. the Rangers, Vincent Lecavalier has doubled that in his last two games. He has a pair of goals in Sunday night's 3-2 overtime victory over the Thrashers.
– After Monday, it's now been five straight games without a start for Rask. If Thomas starts against the the Thrashers on Thursday, Rask will have gone more than two weeks without seeing any playing time. Thomas has been stellar in his last two starts, so the Bruins face some serious difficulty in trying to get Rask game experience to keep him sharp.
– The Lucic – Savard – Horton line has not produced a goal in either of the two game s since it came into being in last week's line shuffle. In fact, of the four non-special-teams goals the team has scored in the last two contests, half have come from Krejci, with Shawn Thornton scoring the other two.
– Will this one go to overtime, too? Judging by the opponent, it wouldn't be surprising. The Lightning's last three games have been decided either in overtime or a shootout. They're 2-0-1 in that stretch.
|Bruins at Panthers preview
|12.27.10 at 4:46 am ET
The Bruins are coming off perhaps their most monumental win of the season, a 4-1 victory over the Thrashers that featured the grit and emotion the team had lacked over its previous 1-3-1 stretch.
The B's play the next five on the road, starting with Monday's matchup with the Panthers. The Bruins have won both games against Florida this season, most recently grabbing a 3-1 victory at BankAtlantic Center behind two goals from Mark Recchi on Nov. 24.
– The Panthers are 7-6-0 at BankAtlantic Center this season, though they probably feel as though they don't know the place anymore with the way their schedule has been. Nine of their last 12 games have been played on the road. They're 2-4-0 in their last six home contests dating back to Nov. 22.
– The Bruins are 9-5-1 on the road and have dropped their last three away from the Garden.
– The Panthers are the only team in the NHL to not have an overtime loss this season. The Bruins have come away with the single point in four contests.
– Milan Lucic has gone without a point in three straight games for the first time this season. His last point came on Dec. 16 in Montreal, a third-period power play goal. Despite his mini-slump, he continues to lead the Bruins with 16 goals.
– Each of the Bruins goaltenders have put together impressive performances vs. the Panthers this season. Tuukka Rask grabbed a shutout on Nov. 18 at the Garden, while Tim Thomas allowed on goal on Nov. 24th. Florida is the only team that both Bruins goaltenders have beaten.
– The Bruins have allowed 35 shots or more in seven games in December. If David Booth comes close to the 14 shots he had against the Bruins on Nov. 18, they might be in for a high shots allowed total again.
– The biggest question for this Bruins team is how they can sustain what they did Thursday for an entire road trip, and then beyond that. They have Tampa Bay Tuesday, followed by a rematch against the Thrashers on Thursday. If the Bruins want to carry momentum from their victory last Thursday they will need to kick off the road trip with a win over the Panthers.
– The Bruins have not sat Tuukka Rask for five straight games yet this season. Tim Thomas has started the last four, and has had such a stretch only twice this season. It might make sense for Rask to get the nod against the lowly Panthers, which would avoid overwhelming Thomas with three starts in four days, but reports out of Florida suggest Thomas will be between the pipes.
– The Bruins benefit greatly from the fact that Lucic was not suspended for Monday's game. This way, they can take their time with bringing Brad Marchand (soreness) back and not have to summon an extra forward while they're away. Claude Julien told reporters Monday that Marchand will not play.
|Milan Lucic not suspended for punching Freddy Meyer, gesturing to Atlanta bench
|12.26.10 at 1:19 pm ET
Bruins left wing Milan Lucic will not be suspended after sucker punching Thrashers defenseman Freddy Meyer in the head and gesturing to the Atlanta bench in the third period of the B's 4-1 victory at TD Garden on Thursday. He will instead receive fines totaling $3,500.
Lucic had received an intent to injure match penalty for punching Meyer after the Thrashers defenseman hit Lucic high, a hit deemed dirty by all Bruins skaters on the ice, as a line brawl broke out between the two teams. The match penalty carries with it an automatic suspension pending a review, and after Lucic met with NHL vice presidents of hockey operations Mike Murphy on Sunday, it was determined that he will not miss any time.
Following is the statement released by Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli:
'The NHL has informed us that Milan will not be suspended as a result of the match penalty assessed to him during our game against the Thrashers last Thursday. He will be fined $2,500 for the punch thrown in the scrum and $1,000 for making an obscene gesture directed at the Thrashers bench. He will join the team on the flight to Florida and be available for Monday's game against the Panthers.'
|Milan Lucic: With fans 'calling for blood,' players must execute
|12.21.10 at 1:23 pm ET
WILMINGTON — The Bruins, losers of four of their last five games, find themselves searching for answers as they try to find a balance of both consistency and emotion. After Monday's 3-0 loss to the Ducks showcased a glaringly lethargic team, the B's find themselves in an unflattering light around town. Fans are questioning coach Claude Julien, while the lack of a full team effort has resulted in expected media scrutiny. Amidst all the negativity, forward Milan Lucic said the guys on the ice are the ones who ultimately have to produce if they want to right the ship.
"Everyone's calling for blood, the media's writing negative stuff about us, but we've got to have each other's back and stick up for one another, and it's all going to start from in here," Lucic told WEEI.com Tuesday. "It's got to be a team effort where all 20 guys are committed to putting in the work."
Lucic said the team is aware of their struggles and that the effort is there to get the team in the right frame of mind come game time, but that there comes a point at which trying isn't good enough.
"We try to do things to rally one another and pump each other up before the game. We're saying the right things, it's just a matter of going out there and doing them. That's the main thing right now. Talk is cheap. You've got to go out there and do it."
The 22-year-old leads the Bruins with 16 goals this season, but with the team struggling as badly as it has been, each of the top three lines saw major shakeups. Lucic, who had played with Nathan Horton and either David Krejci or Patrice Bergeron all season, will now skate with Horton and Marc Savard.
"I've played with Savvy before, and Savvy's obviously excited to play with Horton for the first time here," Lucic said, while adding that "we'll see what happens next game."
"Hopefully we can create some chances and get some results."
The Bruins need the latter more than anything right now.
|Capitals at Bruins preview
|12.18.10 at 10:26 am ET
A couple of teams in dire need of a win will hit the Garden ice on Saturday night as the Bruins (16-10-4), winless in their last three, take on the Capitals (18-11-4). Despite dropping their last seven games, Washington still leads the Southeast division with 40 points.
– The Bruins are 7-5-3 in home games this season, a mark that was brought over .500 with a 2-0-1 showing in their most recent home-stand. Saturday marks the first of three home games in a row before they play seven of the following eight on the road.
– The Capitals are one of only three teams with 12 home wins (despite dropping their last five at the Verizon Center), but the road has been a different story. They're 6-7-1 outside of the nation's capital, and are looking for their first win as the away team since Dec. 1, when they picked up a 4-1 win in St. Louis. It remains the team's only win this month.
– Milan Lucic is a goal away from tying his career-high of 17. The 22-year-old power forward hasn't just led the Bruins in goals this season, he's been cold-streak-proof. The longest stretch without a point this season for Lucic is two games, something he's only done once (11/20 vs. LA, 11/22 at TB). Lucic scored his 16th goal of the season Thursday.
– In their seven-game winless streak, the Capitals have scored two goals just three times. They have been shutout twice in that span.
– I promise this is the last time that we'll mention that Steven Kampfer has had 20-plus minutes of icetime twice despite being only four games into his NHL career, and that Matt Hunwick had two 20-minute nights in his 22 games for the B's this season.
Playing with Zdeno Chara and seeing the time he's seen of late on the power play helps, and Kampfer should continue to get big minutes as a result. It's rather clear the B's made the right choice in making Kampfer the guy when it came time to call someone up from Providence following the Mark Stuart injury.
– This will be the fourth and final meeting between the two teams. The Bruins won the first two before dropping a 5-3 decision on Nov. 5. In that game, the B's climbed back from a 3-0 deficit to tie the game at three. This came after a goaltending switch and Tuukka Rask's entrance into the game in the third period. The loss, in which Rask allowed just one goal, remains perhaps the best single representation of the luck the Finnish goaltender has fallen on this season.
– It's a good thing the Bruins are getting all of their games with Washington out of the way so early, because Alexander Ovechkin is bound to bust out of his season-long goal-scoring slump (by his standards, anyway) eventually. Ovechkin has just 12 goals this season, which puts him on pace for a career-low 30 goals. His lowest total in a season is the 46 he scored in 2006-07, his sophomore campaign. It is the only season of his five in which he did not register at least 50 goals.
Over his last 15 games, the 25-year-old has scored just twice. Ovechkin has one goal against the Bruins in three games thus far, an empty netter in the Nov. 5 contest.
Although he hasn't scored nearly as much as one would expect from the 6-foot-2 winger, Ovechkin is on pace for a career-high 60 assists. He had 59 a season ago.
– The Capitals' leading goal-scorer this season, Alexander Semin, will not play vs. the B's after not traveling with the team to Boston, according to the Washington Post. Semin is out with a lower-body injury.
Semin has 18 goals this season despite not notching one in his last seven games.

Bristol's Pickin' Porch location moves downtown
BRISTOL, Tenn. - A new year and a new tradition begins in downtown Bristol -- the Appalachian Cultural Music Association brings its Pickin' Porch performances to downtown.
For the past 15 years they've been held at the Bristol Mall on Thursday nights. But with announced plans to move the music association's museum to a downtown location, it was a natural move to bring the Pickin' Porch along too.
This means there's music downtown every week now.
The excitement began to build when late last year the Appalachian Cultural Music Museum announced plans to move to downtown Bristol.
A component of that was a live music performance each week from their Pickin' Porch.
And now the Pickin' Porch has a new location within the Foundation Facilities and a new night, Monday night.
ACMA co-founder Tim White told us about their new stage. "[It's got] state-of-the-art lights, state-of-the-art sound, we can get 500, 600, 700 people in there. It's a big step up," he said.
The new venue and the new night means there will be music downtown almost every night of the week. "Being on Monday night will help a lot of the merchants downtown. It's going to a great opportunity to showcase the ACMA Pickin' Porch here downtown at the Birthplace of Country Music. It's going to be the first show in a long, long time that's live every week right here in downtown Bristol," Allen Hurley with the Foundation Facilty said.
The new location and day of the week in their new home breaks a 15-year history at the Bristol Mall location, but a new tradition is beginning. "I want our folks who've been religiously coming to the Pickin' Porch not to be negative. To come out and support what where doing and give it a chance. I think we're going to pick up new people that will be coming to the Pickin' Porch whether it's the new location or the new night," White added.
It's just a link in a long chain of events that's brought the musical heritage and a downtown back to life.

Microsoft Airs its First Ad for the Surface, And Well, It is Pretty Awesome
By: Hillel Fuld (@hilzfuld)
Seems like just yesterday we were talking about Microsoft ads and how confused the company is... Well, someone over there at Redmond read the post and said "Not so fast, we have something better up our sleeves and no dude jumping from space is going to steal our thunder this time."
Microsoft released its first ad for the much-anticipated Surface tablet. So how is it? Thought you'd never ask. It is pretty great. It communicates what Microsoft should be communicating, i.e "We can be young and hip too. And gone are the days of us being just a software company making software that is the farthest thing from sexy. Here comes Windows 8 and the Surface."
Well, as reported, Microsoft will be spending well over a billion dollars on the marketing blitz for Windows 8 and if this ad is any indication, well, grab the popcorn, it should be a fun few months.
Anyway, the ad is entertaining, puts a smile on your face and yes, makes the Surface look like a device I want to buy. Right now.

Membrane filtration will hike Bend water rates
Ratepayers can expect to pay about $3.60 more a month
BEND, Ore. - For every twist of the tap, soon you'll be paying more.
"The rates will increase, it looks like 10 percent, which the equivalent is $3.60 a month," City Councilor Sally Russell said Thursday.
In a lengthy council discussion Wednesday night, following years of delays and months of debate, councilors voted 4-3 to clean the city's drinking water with a $31 million membrane filtration system -- rejecting a cheaper, ultraviolet option that could have have cost rate payers nothing.
If more groundwater wells were added with the ultraviolet system, that option's cost could have risen to $1.80 more per month for ratepayers.
Although it's the most expensive option, councilors Mark Capell, Jodie Baram, Victor Chudowsky and Scott Ramsay voted to for membrane filtration.
"It is the best long-term system for the community, and I think in the long-run will save us money," said councilor Mark Capell.
However, Russell was one of the three who voted for the UV system.
"I really thought UV would do the job, and that membrane committed us to much higher short-term and long-term financial commitments," Russell said.
Capell, whose yes vote for the membrane option broke a 3-3 tie, earlier had declared a potential conflict of interest, as he has several times in the past.
"My brother works for the company doing the design -- now he has nothing to do with the water project, he's an electrical engineer," Capell said.
City Attorney Mary Winters told NewsChannel 21 that state ethics officials determined all Capell had to do was declare a potential conflict of interest before voting -- something he said was important to him.
"When there is a fire in the watershed, chances are the UV system would get thrown away, and we'd end up putting in the membrane filter," Capell said.
But Russell argues UV works great for many cities around the U.S. -- and says we've added the wrong burden on taxpayers.
"Our community has a lot more investments to make," Russell said. "We have new schools, we still have the operational funding for those, we have public transit to figure out."
Construction on the new treatment station is expected to begin this spring and finish in 2015.
City officials said as many as four new jobs could be added to operate that station.
