Stay in tune with the buzz from Yamaha, Yamaha Pros and your fellow anglers. Once you're on board, you'll find there's nothing more exhilarating than being a Yamaha fan.
When you've been in the fishing business as long as I have, you tend to reflect on the "good days" and "special catches," and not as much about opportunities for others to have those memorable days on the water.
It's really nice to see gasoline prices dropping, as fuel prices are usually one of the largest expenses when fishing or boating.

Naomi is one of my best friends. We met our first year of college in New York, I was a hot mess, and she had it together. We are very much an odd couple, and we started out by naming our differences. But years pass, and you find that there is always one person who is really there for you, without prompting, who is automatically at your door with a bag of greasy food, the 6 hour long pride and prejudice, or cleaning supplies during every single life crisis. Over time, when you have a person like that in your life, they become family. Naomi is my sister, and she hates it when I photograph her. Jerk.
Naomi has just left New York to become an Officer of Law Enforcement in Los Angeles. She's going to see what she's made of and become a gun wielding, hand to hand defensive combat trained bad-ass. I'm so proud of her. (But of course, part of me just wants her to come back to New York!)
New York is a lonely place with out my dear friend. My parting gift to her was a session for her puppy Carter, who I also love very much. To be truthful though, I thought Carter was an annoying little brat when I first met him. But he grows on you. Kind of like Naomi ;).
This was my first ENTIRELY film session! The anxiety waiting for these to come back from the lab was unrelenting! Shot with the Contax 645, Fuji film.

Rafael Benitez today insisted Frank Lampard was not being discarded by Chelsea because he was past his best.
Interim manager Benitez claimed the Stamford Bridge decision-makers who have halted contract talks with the England midfielder had no doubt about "his condition, his levels, his quality".
Benitez suggested owner Roman Abramovich and the board were analysing "different things", but did not go into more detail.
It is only possible to speculate what they might be but one could be the fact that Lampard is one of the highest earners at the club during an era of Financial Fair Play.
His age, 34, and recent injury record might also come into it but Benitez told BBC Sport: "For sure, he's a fantastic player, a great professional - there's no doubt about this.
"Also, when I talk to the people in charge, they are telling me the same, so nobody has any doubt about his condition, his levels, his quality.
"So the decision could be analysing different things, not just the quality of the player."Reuse content

Research - Soft Drinks M&A Opportunities in 2010
By Euromonitor International | 25 June 2010
Euromonitor's report looks at M&A opportunities in the soft drinks industry
As soft drinks manufacturers emerge from the global recession, many face continued sales declines in developed markets due to saturation of key categories. As credit markets ease, new global competitors will continue to emerge as companies look beyond their domestic markets for growth. While large-scale transformative mergers are less likely, several smaller companies offer advantages of access to new geographies, brands, sales channels, or strategic partnerships. A report from Euromonitor this month looks to identify these opportunities for major soft drinks categories and explains the rationale and implications of potential future M&A activity.
Though large manufacturers devote considerable resources to brand and new product development, it can be difficult to anticipate what will resonate in the minds of consumers. Sometimes the white spaces of unmet consumer needs only become apparent after a company has gained experience in a local market.
Tastes also differ vastly in different regions of the world, and it is often a local company that can best take advantage of the knowledge about traditions, flavours, sources, along with routes to market that would be needed to succeed in a particular country.
Brands that have already become successful through the efforts of a smaller independent manufacturer in turn often hit a barrier of scale when they want to expand beyond local cities and carry their product to new markets. Expansion at this point often takes a great deal more expenditure. If a brand is not profitable quickly, which is often the case, it can put a smaller company at risk of insolvency.
A marriage with a larger player can thus benefit both parties, allowing the brand the time and resources to slowly grow beyond its local means of production, and providing a larger manufacturer with the innovation and exposure in a new category with a proven track record, without the costly research they would have to undertake on their own to achieve the same result.
Countries such as Thailand, South Africa, Chile, and Indonesia may not be the largest markets but can provide valuable experience in testing manufacturing capabilities, working with local distribution partners, and reaching new consumer groups more common to certain regions of the world. The lessons learned can then be applied to larger regional markets such as China and Brazil.
In mature markets, large acquisition targets are often non-existent, and even smaller, targeted brands can have limited potential. As a result, company activity is more squarely-focused on building existing brands beyond their existing channels and routes to market. Acquisitions can therefore be predicated on greater control of the supply and production chain, and especially on investigating new and innovative sales channels that have not yet been explored.
Often, local independent distributors or manufacturers have built success in a very specific channel, such as vending or home delivery. Economies of scale can be achieved through a partnership with a larger manufacturer with a large, ready-made portfolio of brands. Smaller distributors are often regional in nature and find it challenging to move to a national presence if their brands are produced in only one area. A large soft drinks manufacturer typically has production and warehouse capabilities across entire countries and regions, and can offer the means for further expansion that could not be achieved otherwise.
Sometimes an outright acquisition is prohibitively expensive or too risky for the launch of a product in an emerging category. In such cases, a strategic partnership with a large, established player can be advantageous. The soft drinks manufacturer gets access to existing retailer relationships and production capacity, while the partner gets to expand to a new category behind what is often a proven brand or company, without spending on research and development. This is a common strategy preferred by many of the world's leading brands and companies.
Other key findings in the report include:
Many of the largest soft drinks markets around the world are highly competitive, with many companies and brands trying to capture shares of categories dwindling in total sales. Expansion to new, high growth markets is needed to offset these declines.
Following the recession of 2008-2009, companies are finding it easier to secure financing and take on debt in 2010 in order to complete M&A activity. Potential deals are more likely to happen in this climate than 12 months previously.
When Cadbury Schweppes divested its drinks division in 2007-2008, it marked one of the few times a global soft drinks portfolio was put in to play. Gaining scale through large acquisitions is not always an available option.
Local players are often able to develop successful brands in key categories based on a more directly applicable knowledge of country-specific tastes, supply chains, and distribution channels. These should become the focus of incremental M&A moves.
There are limits to the reach of multinationals even in markets where their products have been successfully launched. Often, local players have established positions in second-tier cities or at lower price points that could be utilised through partnerships.
Some manufacturers have built success in limited product areas and regions. To better compete with global players, a strategic partnership in a new, smaller country can provide a test market for a longer-term goal of regional expansion.
An influx of new competitors from Asia as well as parallel industries such as alcoholic drinks and packaged food means that soft drinks manufacturers need to be ready to make deals when the opportunity arises, without distracting from immediate sales.
In order to take a smaller, more targeted approach to M&A activity, an understanding is needed of which markets and companies offer strategic advantages within specific soft drinks categories.

Before heading to Salon Melbourne last Sunday, the hubs and I had a nice lunch over at Southbank. After lunch, I headed over to Salon Melbourne while the hubs went furniture shopping. The crowd as expected was crazy, so many people!! You can read about last years experience at Salon Melbourne here.
I stopped by OPI to have a look at the bargains that was available. It was $10 for one or buy six and get one free. I didn't get anything because I wasn't patient enough to wait around.
Klara Cosmetics was there this year. I didn't know they had such a large range of makeup until I saw their store.
Orly was $10 for one or $25 for three. I was more interested in Orly than OPI because I've never tried any Orly nail products before, unbelievable hey?? Plus when I was there, the lovely lady at Orly was really friendly and helpful.
Here's a photo of the crowd surrounding the Lime Crime store. IT WAS INTENSE!! I waited 35mins in that crowd to get served. Girls were pushing and shoving like it was free. The makeup were quite cheap with palettes $25, lipsticks $14, lip glosses $14 and eyeliners $11.
- Orly Nailtrition $8.33 ($25 for 3)
- Orly Bonder $8.33 ($25 for 3)
- Orly Flash Dry $8.33 ($25 for 3)
- Lime Crime Eyeliner Lazuli $11
- Lime Crime Eyeliner Reason $11
I'm on a budget which is why I didn't buy much. I could only get the items I really really needed. The Lime Crime stuff was not a 'need' but because I waited 35mins in the crazy crowd, I had to get something to make my time worthwhile. While I was at Salon Melbourne, I also had the opportunity of attending the Rae Morris master makeup class. It was a very intimate class of about 30ish people. In the session, Rae gave us her tips, tricks and secrets. I took a lot of notes in the class, so if you are interested let me know and I can write-up a post on what I learnt. I had an awesome day at Salon Melbourne and I'm looking forward to attending next years.
Did you stop by Salon Melbourne and what did you buy?

Took my dad and brother out to the range. We mostly shot .22 pistols and rifles. Since we all own different brands of guns we swapped out and tried each others.
Dad didn't like the NAA derringer, due to the recoil and his big hands. But he seemed impressed they got 5 rnds in such a little package.
I got to try out his Beretta Couger 9mm . Nice pistol, his still looks like new , since he doesn't CCW. Also got to shoot my bro's Taurus .22 revo stainless. Not sure what model. Good trigger and sights made spinning the targets easier.
We all had a good time plinking targets and hanging out.

The Quiet E-Commerce Renaissance
November 30, 2010 § 2 Comments
E-commerce has undergone dramatic change in the last two years. Zynga has cracked social gaming and virtual goods wide open, producing enormous transaction volume. Groupon has crushed local service group buying and created a multi-billion dollar cash machine. Gilt has pioneered invite-only branded high end flash sales. All three of these companies have pioneered new e-commerce models in a matter of months, have been locked in the tech news spotlight, and have spawned hordes of fast-followers trying to get in on the action.
However outside of the consumer spotlight, there are several companies that have been revolutionizing web based e-commerce tools available for businesses. Shopify, AvantLink, Shopatron, AdRoll, and FeeFighters are each dedicated to helping their customers sell more and sell better online. They don't receive the public fanfare of their consumer facing brethren like Zynga, Groupon and Gilt, but all have offerings that create unique value and some are growing at a similarly furious pace. « Read the rest of this entry »

Paper Prototype User Testing
September 26, 2010 § 2 Comments
A heavily underutilized tool in the UI development and testing toolset is the paper prototype user test. Paper prototype tests have literally saved me and the companies I have worked for hundreds of hours and tens of thousands of dollars. The test itself is really simple. Like all other forms of user testing, the most difficult step is getting the testers to show up and do the test.
Setting Team Expectations and Evaluating Performance
September 25, 2010 § Leave a comment
Over the last year I have been inspired for a number of reasons to bone up on my skills related to improving employee performance. This great post by Ben Horowitz led me to High Output Management by Andy Grove, which is a phenomenal reference for any manager. I have found Chapters 11 through 16 to be particularly useful. Grove's core message is that more often than not, an underperforming employee is likely being mismanaged. Specifically, it is likely that the employee does not know what management expects the employee to do. When an employee underperforms, Grove advises managers to double back and make sure it is abundantly clear what exactly is expected of the employee, what metrics will be used to evaluate the employee's performance, and when the employee's next performance review will occur. « Read the rest of this entry »

A much needed update! I joined Liftopia back in November as VP of Product. My primary role is to lead the charge on the technology development side of things but as is the case with all startups, everyone does a bit of everything. I joined the team right as we were heading into our peak season and have spent the last six months trying to pump out features that would improve our season results and keep the wheels on the bus. We still have a long way to go but we had a great season, and when we have a great season that means we were able to help ski resorts have great seasons as well which is very cool. We're now heading into a period of lower transactional volume which means we will be able to crank out a ton of development work, as we don't have to worry as much about bug fixes, transaction processing optimization and customer support issues. I'll post updates here as we release features and design changes. I'm also going to start blogging again (although Twitter is still sucking me away).
Side Benefit of User Testing: Team Unity
September 10, 2009 § Leave a comment
For the last several months, we've been undergoing a large redesign of a critical and complex user flow at Adroll. At this point, several hundred hours of work have gone into the project. Our UX intern started the project with a company-wide customer identification exercise that got everyone focused on who we're targeting with our product and who we should be designing for. We then conducted extensive user testing with target customers throughout development which resulted in radical shifts from what we thought would be the "right" solutions out of the gates. The result is not only a better and easier to use product, but also a unified team. User testing not only focused our team on our target users' behavior but also virtually eliminated internal debate and the resulting tension regarding who thought what would be best for our users. In the long run it's very possible that the side benefit of team unity will match the value of the much improved product.

Nothing personal, it was way too fast for us. Whn you added reference to some library, you clicked some folders on your machine, no idea which folder you added it from. Also when you made a reference to some Library/Web-Service, had not clue what that was for.
My 2 cents
Excellent Video. I wish you could have demoed us the following
1. B'cos it was local machine x.x.x.:10000 -- Where exactly on your machine the files / images get uploaded & how do they look
2. Defining the method as PRIVATE & showing us, what the failure scenario would have looked like

AT&T Inc.'s practice of exempting its streaming video services from data-usage caps is rankling competitors and shaping up as a major issue for regulators set to weigh the telecom giant's proposed $85.4 billion acquisition of Time Warner Inc.
When AT&T rolls out its $35-a-month DirecTV Now online TV service this month, its wireless subscribers will be able to stream as much as they want without it counting toward their monthly data caps. But if the same customers binge on outside services like Netflix or Hulu, those bits will add up -- potentially leading to surcharges.
Streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Sling TV, Major League Baseball spinoff BAMTech, as well as media companies like 21st Century Fox, are likely to press regulators to scrutinize the practice -- known as " zero rating" -- in their review of the AT&T-Time Warner deal, people familiar with the matter said. TV networks that have streaming apps, like CBS and ESPN, also may have a stake in the matter. (21st Century Fox and Wall Street Journal owner News Corp share common ownership.)
Several companies are likely to argue that AT&T's DirecTV Now approach is anticompetitive, and will push for conditions on the merger, the people say.
Some Federal Communications Commission staffers already view AT&T's DirecTV Now exemption as an example of improper zero-rating, people familiar with the situation said, because it disadvantages AT&T's streaming rivals.
The agency is considering how to address zero-rating and whether to raise it as a merger issue, the people said. Other options the agency is weighing include industrywide guidelines on zero-rating.
AT&T says zero-rating promotes competition. It says it offers any company that wants to be zero-rated the same payment terms available to its DirecTV subsidiary. But critics argue that the in-house payments made by DirecTV don't require any net outlays by the parent company, and so can't be compared to AT&T's rivals paying for the same privilege.
FCC spokeswoman Shannon Gilson said: "Conversations to help commission staff understand new offerings are ongoing."
AT&T officials also say zero-rating benefits consumers, a view shared by some groups representing minority and low-income communities. The practice helps streaming services and traditional TV providers "compete nationwide with cable TV's bundle of TV and broadband," said Bob Quinn, AT&T's senior executive vice president for external and legislative affairs.
Current and former regulatory officials in Washington believe that zero-rating could become the central internet policy issue in the AT&T-Time Warner deal review -- just as "net neutrality" played a starring role during Comcast Corp.'s 2011 acquisition of NBCUniversal and its failed 2015 bid to buy Time Warner Cable Inc.
More than a week after the AT&T deal was announced, Wall Street appears skeptical it will pass muster in Washington. Shares of media giant Time Warner are trading about 17% below AT&T's offer price.
AT&T began allowing companies to pay for zero-rating in 2014, but it isn't alone in doing so. Verizon Communications Inc. zero-rates its go90 mobile video app and National Football League games. So far, streaming services like Netflix, Amazon.com Inc.'s video service and Spotify haven't paid, and so count toward both carriers' data caps.
The FCC's net neutrality rules, issued in February 2015, regulate the internet like a utility and require all traffic to be treated equally. The agency didn't restrict zero-rating, but reserved the right to police it.
Now, the AT&T-Time Warner deal could give regulators the impetus to do so. The merger would link AT&T's massive wireless, broadband and pay-TV businesses with content providers like HBO, TNT and Warner Bros.
Some streaming companies and regulatory officials have come to view T-Mobile US Inc.'s "Binge On" program as a more acceptable form of zero-rating. Under that program, any video provider can be exempted from T-Mobile's data caps free of charge if they agree to have their video delivered at lower quality, taking up less bandwidth. Moreover, customers and content companies can easily opt out.
FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler has called the program "innovative," but added officials would be "keeping an eye on it."
Jon Klein, a former CNN executive whose company TAPP operates niche streaming services, said he would likely call for scrutiny of AT&T-style zero-rating in the merger review.
"Zero-rating would no doubt have the effect of stamping out small upstarts, or forcing them to accept unfavorable terms in exchange for preferential distribution," he said.
The stakes are also high for bigger companies. Public-interest advocates worry AT&T could start exempting Time Warner's HBO Now streaming service from data caps, which would give HBO a leg up over rival Netflix and its ilk.
Netflix is keeping all its options on the table, said a person familiar with the company's thinking, including whether to oppose the deal or merely seek conditions. The company's opposition to the proposed Comcast-Time Warner Cable merger helped swing public perception against that deal.
At the WSJDLive Conference in October, Netflix Chief Executive Reed Hastings saidit was important that "HBO's bits and Netflix's bits are treated the same."
Regulators have made protecting internet TV a primary goal in reviewing recent mergers. Earlier this year, they barred Charter Communications from imposing home broadband caps or usage-based pricing for seven years as a condition of their approval for its Time Warner Cable purchase.
Still, the FCC has been hesitant to come down heavily against zero-rating, people familiar with the agency's thinking said, based on the idea that unlimited streaming could be seen as a benefit to consumers, even if big companies had an advantage.
Late last year, the agency began closely studying zero-rating, collecting information from companies including AT&T, which has taken the view that any regulatory action on the subject should apply to the rest of the industry.
Republican FCC Commissioner Michael O'Rielly agrees and has said the agency's vague stance stifles innovation.
"These services live under a perpetual cloud of doubt," Mr. O'Rielly said in a speech in September.

Jayne Herbert, Penzance, Cornwall
I am a semi retired freelance web designer working from home on the Penwith Moors, near Penzance in Cornwall.
I also own a web directory called Cornwall Arts and Crafts Directory (CACD), which is designed to bring together the wealth of things to do with all aspects of arts and crafts in Cornwall.
I spend quite a lot of time walking, swimming and doing lots of arty and crafty things. I love all sorts of arts and crafts and have recently started to learn to draw and paint.
I also enjoy photography, especially with the advent of the digital camera. Although 90% of greyhounds, moths and the local area, I do sometimes travel further field. I just love taking photographs of sunrises and sunsets, and it's such a great place to be able to do it.
One of my other hobbies is trying to identify moths. I run a moth trap all year round, a couple of times a week. The light attracts the the moths without hurting them and I try to identify as many moths as possible before I let them go.
I have been doing it for a few years now but am still learning and am far from being an expert but hopefully improving all the time.

Exclusive: Greece has three days to deliver or face consequences - EU officials
BRUSSELS/ATHENS (Reuters) - Greece has three days to reassure Europe and the IMF that it can deliver on conditions attached to its bailout in order to receive its next tranche of aid, four euro zone officials said on Tuesday.
The lenders are unhappy with progress Greece has made towards reforming its public sector, a senior euro zone official involved in the negotiations said, while another said they might suspend an inspection visit they resumed on Monday.
Athens, which has about 2.2 billion euros of bonds to redeem in August, needs the talks to conclude successfully.
If they fail, the International Monetary Fund might have to withdraw from the 240 billion euro ($313 billion) bailout to avoid violating its own rules, which require a borrower to be financed a year ahead.
That would heighten the risk that concerted efforts by policymakers over the past nine months to keep a lid on the euro zone crisis could unravel, at a time when tensions are rising in other troubled debtor countries.
Athens is scrambling to bridge differences with troika inspectors and wrap up the review by the end of this week, a Greek coalition official who took part in the talks told Reuters on Tuesday.
"Negotiations must be concluded by Saturday or Sunday at the latest in order to have a (troika) staff agreement that will be discussed at a Eurogroup meeting on Monday," said the official who declined to be named.
The two sides had yet to agree on how to plug a fiscal gap and Athens has missed a June deadline to place 12,500 state workers into a "mobility scheme", under which they are transferred or dismissed within a year.
Tensions over bailout terms have also mounted in Portugal, where Finance Minister Vitor Gaspar, the architect of its bailout measures, resigned on Monday and was followed on Tuesday by Foreign Minister Paulo Portas. Continued...

Line-joins and line-caps in Mathematica 6
Mathematica 5 produced PostScript output with round linecaps and linejoins.
Mathematica 6 outputs miter joins, and the PostScript[] function is no
longer there to correct this. Is there any other way to control how
lines are joined (in the PostScript output)?

If you're looking for a drip coffee maker with seamless performance as well as a durable, easy to clean, and stylish stainless steel exterior, the Delonghi DC514T coffee maker has plenty to offer. With 24-hour full programmability, a drink interrupt system, and a backlit digital clock, the Delonghi DC514T works to make your morning more enjoyable. It brews up to 14 cups of coffee – perfect for guests or late-night study sessions – and it also features an aroma button that ensures small batches of coffee are heated and extracted properly. Thanks to its included permanent gold-tone filter, even the finest grinds don't make it into your cup, and its advanced water filtration system removes impurities from your tap water. No matter what, your coffee will always taste its best.
Controls - The Delonghi DC514T 14 cup coffee maker features 24-hour full programmability. Program the coffee maker at your convenience, and fresh coffee will be ready at your preferred time. Its control panel features a blue backlit digital clock with buttons for set timer, set clock, on/off/auto, and aroma. Below the clock are indicator lights, which show how long it has been since the coffee was brewed.
Pause n' Serve Drink Interrupt System - If you want a cup of coffee before the brewing cycle is completed, you can remove the carafe and pour out a cup without making a mess. Replace the carafe immediately so brewing can continue, and to prevent any overflow in the filter basket.
Carafe and Hot Plate - The 70 oz glass carafe features easy to read side markings, a no-spill spout, and a convenient handle. It rests on the non-stick hot plate, which keeps coffee warm after brewing is complete. The carafe can be washed by hand in warm, soapy water.
Water Reservoir - For the freshest tasting espresso, the water reservoir includes a chlorine-eliminating water filter. The 70 oz water reservoir also features an internal water level indicator. An automatic decalcification indicator light informs you of when it's time to descale.
Aroma Button - The aroma button activates Delonghi's own flavor and aroma enhancing brewing process. Brewing takes place over several continuous cycles, in which water is released into the ground coffee in 30 second time-release intervals. Grounds are saturated a little at a time, thereby extracting the fullest flavors. Delonghi recommends using the aroma button when making small batches of coffee.
Construction - The Delonghi DC514T's exterior is made of brushed stainless steel. The front panel swings open for access to the filter basket and water reservoir. A showerhead water distribution design ensures that all coffee grounds in the filter basket are completely saturated, and a permanent gold-tone filter is included.
Accessories - The Delonghi DC514T includes a permanent gold-tone coffee filter, chlorine water filter, coffee measuring scoop, and detailed instruction manual.

FTC Issues Revised "Green Guides"
The Federal Trade Commission has issued its revised "Green Guides," designed to help marketers ensure that the claims they make about the environmental attributes of their products are truthful and non-deceptive. First issued in 1992, the guides have been revised three times to take into account changes in the marketplace.
"The introduction of environmentally friendly products into the marketplace is a win for consumers who want to purchase greener products and producers who want to sell them," says Jon Liebowitz, FTC chairman. "But this win-win can only occur if marketers' claims are truthful and substantiated. The FTC's changes to the Green Guides will level the playing field for honest business people and it is one reason why we had such broad support."
In revising the Green Guides, the FTC modified and clarified sections of the previous Guides and provided new guidance on environmental claims that were not common when the Guides were last reviewed.
Among other modifications, the guides caution marketers not to make broad, unqualified claims that a product is "environmentally friendly" or "eco-friendly" because the FTC's consumer perception study confirms that such claims are likely to suggest that the product has specific and far-reaching environmental benefits. Very few products, if any, have all the attributes consumers seem to perceive from such claims, making these claims nearly impossible to substantiate, the government states.
The guides also:
- advise marketers not to make an unqualified degradable claim for a solid waste product unless they can prove that the entire product or package will completely break down and return to nature within one year after customary disposal;
- caution that items destined for landfills, incinerators, or recycling facilities will not degrade within a year, so marketers should not make unqualified degradable claims for these items; and
- clarify guidance on compostable, ozone, recyclable, recycled content, and source reduction claims.
New sections in the guides cover
- certifications and seals of approval;
- carbon offsets,
- free-of claims,
- non-toxic claims,
- made with renewable energy claims,
- made with renewable materials claims.
The new section on certifications and seals of approval emphasizes that certifications and seals may be considered endorsements that are covered by the FTC's Endorsement Guides, and includes examples that illustrate how marketers could disclose a "material connection" that might affect the weight or credibility of an endorsement. In addition, the Green Guides caution marketers not to use environmental certifications or seals that don't clearly convey the basis for the certification, because such seals or certifications are likely to convey general environmental benefits.
The Guides do not address use of the terms "sustainable," "natural," and "organic," officials note, because the FTC lacks a sufficient basis to provide meaningful guidance or wants to avoid proposing guidance that duplicates or contradicts rules or guidance of other government agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
The Green Guides take into account nearly 340 unique comments and more than 5,000 total comments received since the FTC released the proposed revisions in the fall of 2010, officials report. They also include information gathered from three public workshops and a study of how consumers perceive and understand environmental claims.
The Green Guides are not agency rules or regulations. Instead, they describe the types of environmental claims the FTC may or may not find deceptive, it reports. The FTC has brought several actions in recent years related to deceptive recyclability, biodegradable, bamboo, and environmental certification claims as part of its overall effort to ensure that environmental marketing is truthful and substantiated.
In addition to the new guides, the FTC has also released a four-page summary of the changes in the guides; the video below explaining highlights of the changes, a new page on the FTC Business Center, with links to legal documents, the Guides and other "green" content; a Business Center blog post; and related consumer information.

This is an unbiased review of Regeneration USA. Please be assured that I am not affiliated with Regeneration USA and I will not try and recruit you into this company. Just an honest review from a 15 year MLM vet!
What is Regeneration USA?
Regeneration USA a New Jersey based wellness company that produced natural foods for distribution. It is a mix between direct sales and network marketing as it allows its representatives to sell to health food stores as well as recruit other affiliates in order to maximize their compensation and earning potential.
Regeneration USA was founded by Justin B. Chernalis. Justin wanted to create a company that was based on healthy raw alternative foods that were free of pesticides and chemicals. In 2008 Regeneration USA was formed and now people all over the world can take Justin's fast food alternative on the road with them!
The Product Line
The main product for Regeneration is the anti-agin whole foods bar. It contains no processed sugar, hydrogenated oils, corn syrup or other crap like that! From everything that I have read online it also tastes pretty good. I looked for it at my local Henry's here in San Diego but I could not find it.
Regeneration also carries a product called Anti-Aging Jiaogulan Tea of Life. This tea is 100% organic and caffeine free! (personally I like a little caffeine in my tea!). Jiaogulan is referred to in Chinese manuscripts as the Herb of immortality!
They also carry an a mineral product as well as a Longevity and Anti-Oxidant Formula.
Regeneration USA Business Outlook
I think this company has a huge potential. The fact that they allow their reps to hire other affiliates to increase income is a huge plus. The health and wellness industry is booming and show no sign of slowing down in the near future. Whole food stores are popping up everywhere as people are trying to ear healthier and more organically.
They offer up to a 47% commission on sales of their products with more incentives for bringing on other affiliates and business partners. If you were on the fence about the business before reading this, I say go ahead a get started. Just make sure that you come in with the right mind set.
These products will not sell themselves and you will face rejection and failures in your business! Do not give up. Sometimes it takes months if not years to become successful in this type of business. Take you small successes and build upon them until you have the lifestyle that you deserve!

It's been a while since we've seen something from Palm; but it seems that they haven't been sitting idle. They're about to release Palm Centro, at a sub US$100 price! Let's hope that it'll be priced similarly when it reaches Malaysian shores.
From the looks of it, the Centro seems much more livelier than the Treos. It runs on Palm OS 5.4.9 and comes with a built-in 1.3MP camera. The Centro also has 64MB of built-in memory. You can add up to 4GB more with a MicroSD card.
Connectivity does not seem to be a core strength of the Centro. It only has Bluetooth 1.2 connectivity and it's not WiFi-enabled.
I think that the Centro could be a pretty decent first smartphone for non-techies.

In 1990 soon after the luxury Limo Bus concept was invented the VIP marketing program came along. At first the California express card was all about an affordable San Diego, CA. It was not too long afterwards we had the California VIP Card; a separate corporation to Nite Life Express that combined customer nightclub privileges and discounts and coupon savings was even good for groups coming for discount charter bus deals. The VIP program also took on a new life as marketing efforts were combined; San Diego new Limousine party buses also become known as the VIP limo bus company. Early in 2002 another division bloomed and that was our luxury car transportation and that certainly fit our "M.O." of the luxury limo bus service. We had stretch limousine rentals and super stretch SUV Cadillac Escalade Limos.

Crispy Pata is a special dish to every Filipinos because of its crispiness and very delicious taste. But before I give you the procedure on how to make a good crispy pata, let us try to know first the meaning of the word "crispy pata" and its origin. Crispy pata means deep fried pata with a crunchy rind and soft and moist meat inside. Pata is the front or hind leg of the pig. In the Philippines, that means the leg and the trotters (knuckles).
Always remember to have a best pata, we must be very selective when buying pig's hind leg. It is very important to choose a young pig rather than the old one because the more mature the pig, the thicker and tougher the rind. Frying alone is not the only step in cooking this dish; the pata has to be boiled to tenderness prior to deep-frying.
According to the oldies, one has to drip-dry the pata after boiling and then allow it to air-dry for a day prior to deep-frying. It is definitely not true. For as long as you drain, cool and, preferably, chill the boiled pata, there's no reason why you can't boil and fry it on the same day.
At first, you should boil the pork hocks or the knuckles with enough water and spiced with garlic, peppercorns, salt, bay leaf, and soy sauce.
Some recipe also indicates the inclusion of 7-up or Sprite in the boil. So it's your preference, it really doesn't matter at all. Boil until it become tender for not less than 2 hours. It only takes less time if you have a pressure cooker.
Once the pata is tender, you need to drain it well. Please make sure it becomes dry to obtain crispiness. Probably hang it so it can drip or at least, blot with paper towel.
You need to deep-fry the dried pata and make sure that you have enough oil to cover the pata by doing this in a large kawale (or pan). You start at high heat, then medium heat, then low heat when the skin starts to become golden brown in color. When blisters start to appear, the pata is probably cooked at crispy. Then, your pata is ready to serve for dinner.

Senator John McCain is aware his opponent is wandering across the Middle East so what better than some rhetoric about standing tall for Israel. His interview with Channel 2 was given just a few hours before Barack Obama arrived in Israel. Senator McCain expressed his hope that Israel would not have to launch an attack on Iran. "I would hope that Israel would not feel threatened" because Western sanctions would impose painful consequences on Iran. But, the Arizona senator made clear to the people of Israel, "I have to look you in the eye and tell you that the United States of America can never allow a second Holocaust."
Senator McCain, who has sharply been critical of comments by Barack Obama regarding his intention to engage in negotiations with Iran, indicated his present position is to pursue low level negotiations before seriously considering any military options.
McCain insists there must be preconditions for talks with Iran. One would assume that stance is favored by just about anyone interested in diplomatic interactions with another nation.

Insight: African immigrants use films and books to fight Italian racism
By Steve Scherer
ROME (Reuters) - Seven years ago, Dagmawi Yimer was "between life and death" when Italian navy officers rescued him and 30 others from a skiff in heavy seas between Libya and the island of Lampedusa.
Today, Yimer directs documentary films about immigrants like himself from the home in the northern city of Verona he shares with his Italian partner and their two-year-old daughter.
He is part of the fast-growing immigrant population that is changing the face of Italy, just as it has transformed the populations of more northern European countries such as Britain, France or Germany.
He is also one of many foreigners who are trying - through cultural initiatives such as films and books - to change the racist views of many Italians of the immigrants in their midst.
Contrary to popular perceptions, immigrants are making their mark across the Italian economy, politics and society. African-born author Kossi Komla-Ebri, a 59-year-old medical doctor, has published six books, all in Italian.
"Many immigrants think our emancipation is only economic and political, but we are convinced it's cultural and that we can have a more profound influence through culture," he said.
It isn't easy. Italy's immigration wave is swelling just as the country is struggling to emerge from its deepest economic downturn in the post-war era.
Nearly eight percent of the population here is foreign born, and in 50 years the number will triple to 23 percent, according to a projection by Catholic charity Caritas. Continued...

Product endorsers: You don't need a big namePosted by mtrocchi on October 26, 2010
We all know endorsements from big names can boost product sales. Athletes like LaBron James (except in Cleveland), movie stars like Sally Field or retired coaches like Jimmy Johnson all get mega-bucks to hit the TV screen and urge us to buy.
For boat dealers, getting big bucks endorsers isn't in the cards. It doesn't have to be, according to Bruce D. Sanders, PhD, a retail consulting psychologist and author of "Retailers Edge: Boost Profits Using Shopper Psychology." Dr. Sanders claims our sales staff can be our celebrity endorsers!
In a recent blog at RIMtailing.blogspot.com, Dr. Sanders cited GameStop to illustrate his concept. GameStop claims it's the world's largest video game retailer with more than 6,000 stores in more than 15 countries. Apparently Best Buy has a pilot program underway, using in-store kiosks, where customers can trade in video games for store credit. Experts say Best Buy wants to grab more entertainment software market share from GameStop.
Dr. Sanders quickly points out that gaining market share from GameStop won't be easy. A very big advantage GameStop has over its competition is that its employees are gaming enthusiasts. Among other things, GameStop has rental programs to allow their staff to master the games. Serious gamers come to store employees to learn the tips, traps and tricks. And, when a GameStop staffer praises a game, the endorsement is coming with expertise worthy of celebrity status, says Dr. Sanders.
I can confirm exactly what he's saying. In Chicago two weeks ago, I accompanied my grandson, Mason, to a GameStop store for a new game. As he narrowed his choices, he would ask the salesman about the games that caught his eye. In every case, one or the other of the salesmen there relayed first-person experience, good and bad, with that game. In the end, Mason selected a just-released game the salesman said he had already played for about 12 hours, found it easy to learn and claimed it had excellent action and graphics. That endorsement closed the deal.
Dr. Sanders recommends asking three questions: First, what opportunities do you provide your sales staff to thoroughly learn about each of the products or services they're responsible for selling? No question, hands-on experience with a product(s) gives the sales staff an edge.
Second, to what degree do you take the recommendations of your staff as to what products should be pruned out of your mix because the staff feels uncomfortable "endorsing" them? Again, personal experience is the key – no one wants to endorse a poor product.
Finally, how do you make your expert staff into celebrities? One idea is to feature their photos in ads? Another, how about prominently placing in the store big photo enlargements featuring sales, service and/or parts staff obviously enjoying a boat, accessory, etc.?
So, forget the big names. Customers will respond to the advice and counsel of a sales "celebrity" who can "endorse" a product from hands-on experience.

"I am not a paper cup"
This is a ceramic, double walled (for insulation), coffee cup that resembles a take-out paper cup. This particular design has a silicone lid that securely attaches to the cup. The outside is matte and the inside is glazed. I prefer a version that Starbucks put out a few months ago. Their version is pretty much the same, but the outside is glazed (and of course has their logo) and the lid is plastic with a silicone liner to keep liquids sealed in. The key difference between the two is the price. "I Am Not A Paper Cup" is roughly $20 and the Starbucks version is $12. The upsides to either is that if you are a daily coffee drinker, you don't have to trash a paper cup and plastic lid every time you get take-out coffee. The downside is that both of them hold about 8 oz. - not favorable if you normally order a "grande" at Starbucks. Another issue for commuters is that it is not spill-proof or splash-proof. And finally, the Starbucks version CANNOT go into the microwave.

Christening Gown - Pearls Completed
The satin stitched circles .... "pearls" .... are now finished. They are done in 2-ply DMC white floss, with white straight stitches as the under padding stitching.
Now, stitching on the ribbon has begun...done in 4-ply DMC silver gray floss...and stem stitch. I want the bow and the monogram areas to be more prominent than the floral in terms of stitch size. The floral areas will be more delicate and have some color. It would be easy for them to over-power the simple design of the bow and center because of the amount of flowers and the addition of color. The satin stitching of the pearls, the dense stitching of the monograms, and the thickness of the ribbon outside edge will hopefully offset the amount of the floral and create a good balance. At least, in my muse's design eye...it will go together wonderfully. We shall see....

How to Answer Illegal Job Interview Questions [Video]
What if you're looking for a job but your interviewer asks for information which makes you uncomfortable? Those questions could be illegal.
Lawyers.com Editor-in-Chief Larry Bodine tells you exactly what kinds of questions potential employers cannot ask in interviews. He also gives you tips in answering those questions, which could even help you in your job search.
Federal law prohibits asking job applicants about their race, religion, age, national origin, sexual preference, disability and family status. This report provides ways to respond to illegal questions without torpedoing your chances of getting hired.
As one example, Larry describes what happened to a 58-year-old janitor in St. Louis when his employer told him he was too old to become the supervisor.
This video could help you to get the job that you want and deserve. To learn more about your rights under employment law or to contact an attorney to discuss an employment discrimination lawsuit, contact lawyers.com.
