Facebook marketing is an investment.
If you're not putting yourself in front of your fans or prospects very well, it doesn't matter how clever your posts are or how well-designed your page is. You simply won't get spectacular results, or a return.
It's hard to sell if you're not seen.
So, what do you do?
How do you make sure that you're getting your message across, that your page and your posts and your ads enjoy as much exposure as they possibly can?
You have to understand Facebook reach – and understand it well.
Thankfully, we can help. We've blogged on reach before – from basic principles to industry developments – and today we're going to share a few of those posts with you.
Let's start by defining what reach actually is.

Post excerpt functionality for attachments – specifically full-page galleries
An example of what I'm looking to achieve is as follows;
I've built a template page running with a mildly modified wp gallery shortcode function (mainly with the linebreaks removed for a fluid theme) and using Jetpack carousel downstream.
What I'd like to do is list 4 images from the gallery atached to a post, then link (view the full gallery) to a page which contains larger thumbnails of the gallery items, which will then open (when clicked) to be viewed using Jetpack carousel.
I'm not interested in using NextGen or reinventing the wheel using a different image carousel.
Perhaps the simplest way to articulate the problem I'm trying to solve is as follows:
What I'm looking to do is;
- query post attachments as part of the main wordpress loop, but instead of returning the full list of attachments (as the_content does by default), I'd like to display just 'four' image attachments along with a 'view more' link (and a statement for how many images are available in the gallery).
- when 'view more' is clicked, this should release the remaining post attachments (which in my case could be as many as 50) as a list of thumbnails
- rather than automagically 'reveal' these on the same page, I would like to display these in a seperate gallery layout – without the rest of the post content.
The functionality sounds a lot like post_excerpt, but for image items rather than words of text.
Clearly there are many ways to achieve the above, including a purely javascript/Ajax approach along the lines used in most lightbox scripts, but I don't want this gallery page to be a modal window – I'd like it to be a standard looking post page without the other bits of post content.
The other issue I am conscious of is efficiency (in terms of database queries). Ideally it shouldn't add any additional queries. It's a fair assumption than when the main loop is executed and the post_content is retrieved, this including the image attachments should be kept available (until the query is reset), so I don't want to retrieve four images for the main post page, then retrieve a further 46 images when displaying the full gallery – that would seem wasteful.
I have currently put together a template page which contains these gallery thumbnails, but upon further reflection this also seems unnecessary. I am already using post formats throughout the site, so surely I could just hijack one of the unused post formats (such as 'status') and use this to display the full gallery in a different layout to the main single post. I would need to refresh the page when the 'view more' link is clicked and update the body class but that shouldn't be too hard.
So, my question is;
- does anyone know of a custom version of the post_excerpt script that works for images?
- what would be the most efficient way of assembling the database calls (wp_the_query, pre_get_posts) and using is_main_query() to keep on track and avoid the overheads of duplication?
- and how do I refresh the page (to display the gallery) without making an additional database query?
This sounds like an ideal plugin or shortcode which could be used for other mime types (videos, PDFs etc), in fact pretty standard CMS functionality. So in the spirit of open source community, and to save me reinventing the wheel, does any of this sound like a problem you might have already found a solution to?
- The topic 'Post excerpt functionality for attachments – specifically full-page galleries' is closed to new replies.

The case was abandoned after an internal FO email destroying the chances of securing a prosecution was disclosed 18 months after Pasquill's arrest. With senior individuals at the Foreign Office now facing the threat of a lawsuit for malicious prosecution from Pasquill's lawyers, calls were also mounting for an explanation why an Official Secrets prosecution was allowed to go ahead by then Foreign Secretary Jack Straw, when senior officials in his department were insisting it was an inappropriately harsh response to Pasquill's leaks to The Observer and the New Statesman
Among those calling for a review of secrecy laws is Baroness Pauline Neville-Jones, former chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee, and a security adviser to David Cameron.
Neville-Jones was among a number of figures who had been expected to be called by Pasquill's defence team to rebuff claims that his actions had damaged the UK's international relations.
'We need to open up the question of whether this is the legislation that we need,' Neville-Jones said yesterday. 'We need reasonable legislation, and we need ... to have laws that not only admit a defence of public interest but that act in the public interest.'
Neville-Jones's comments came as the government sources conceded that the Foreign Office and Director of Public Prosecutions would be examining the fallout from the case to see whether the present legislation can protect the government's secrets.

On 31 March 2015, the Government released the Final Report of the Competition Policy Review.
The Government asked Professor Ian Harper and an expert panel to undertake an independent 'root and branch' review of competition policy. This was the first comprehensive review of Australia's competition framework in more than 20 years and delivers on a key election commitment.
The Competition Policy Review's Final Report makes 56 recommendations for reforms across three key themes: competition policy, laws and institutions.
The Government supports the broad direction of the Competition Policy Review's Final Report, which is to promote more dynamic, competitive and well-functioning markets.
The focus of this consultation is to seek feedback from industry, consumers and all levels of government on the Competition Policy Review's final recommendations to strengthen Australia's Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (CCA) and issues concerning small businesses, especially where there have been changes since the draft report. This will inform the Government's response to the report later in the year. Following the Government's response, appropriate legislative changes will be developed for further consultation.
There are two ways you can get involved:
For further information please see below and the attached Factsheet, Final Report and Media Release.
Please note that there is no separate consultation paper.
For enquiries please call Scott Rogers (02) 6263 3076.
This consultation process has now been completed
On 24 November 2015 the Treasurer released the Government response to the Competition Policy Review and the Government response on the National Access Regime.

Cairo: US Secretary of State John Kerry has met UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon as diplomatic efforts intensify to reach a ceasefire in the Gaza crisis. Mr Kerry has been authorised by US President Barack Obama to do "everything he can to help facilitate a cessation of hostilities".
However, that push will prove difficult, with the US relying heavily on Egypt, Qatar and Turkey to play intermediary because Washington has no direct contact with the militant group Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip.
Amid the diplomatic efforts, there is mounting concern over the number of casualties, with nearly 600 Palestinians killed in the two-week conflict. The UN says most of the Palestinian dead are civilians, including many children. Israel said two of its soldiers were killed on Monday, bringing total Israeli casualties to 29, including two civilians. Israel also reported that two of its dead soldiers were US citizens. The death toll is the highest Israeli military casualty rate in eight years.
On Tuesday, Israeli aircraft hit more than 70 targets in the Gaza Strip, according to Gaza police spokesman Ayman Batniji. On Monday, Israeli shells hit al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah, killing five people, including a patient.
There has also been no let-up from Hamas since the operation began, with 116 rockets hitting Israel on Monday, one striking the greater Tel Aviv area, and another 17 shot down, the Israeli army said.
The UN Security Council has called for an immediate ceasefire.
"It will be extremely difficult for the United States to bring Egypt, Turkey, and Qatar together right now," said Robert Danin, a fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and a former senior US State Department official.
"However, all three countries do wish to see an end to the fighting," Mr Danin added. "Moreover, Egypt, Turkey and Qatar all stand to benefit politically and in their regional standing, by serving as power brokers to a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel."
Mr Kerry was scheduled on Tuesday to meet Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukri. He will also meet the head of the Arab League, Nabil al-Araby.
Hamas leader Khaled Meshal and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas held talks on Monday in Doha, Qatar, where Mr Meshal is based, pledging to work together for a ceasefire and to lift the blockade on Gaza.
A senior State Department official emphasised: "Our immediate goal is to stop the fighting as quickly as possible."
Yet both Hamas and Israel are expected to add further demands.
"The military wing of Hamas is calling the shots now and will try to hold out to show they achieved something," said Dennis Ross, a former Middle East negotiator, adding that the group could be expected to insist on reopening the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, money from Qatar and the release of prisoners Israel had detained recently.
"Israel will want to hold out until they have destroyed a large number of the tunnels and will seek to get Kerry to insist on the dismantling of the rocket infrastructure in return for rebuilding Gaza," Mr Ross said. "Israel may not have a problem with money going to Hamas but will mightily resist the release of Hamas prisoners."
Signs of the challenges that lie ahead came on Monday when Egypt's Foreign Minister said Cairo had no intention of altering its ceasefire proposal, which formed the main basis for the talks. Hamas last week rejected that plan. That came on the heels of Egypt's protest of Turkish Prime Minster Recep Tayyip Erdogan's recent denunciation of al-Sisi as a "tyrant".
"We believe that the effort to reach a ceasefire this time around is going to be more complicated than it was in 2012," a State Department official said. "The region is more divided now."

Getting through the holiday while grieving
Rebecca L. Palen
write the author
December 26, 2013
Q. I lost my spouse to cancer this past summer. I am starting to feel even worse now that the holidays are approaching. Can I have some guidance of how to get through the next few weeks?
A. While there are other critical dates and times that affect grieving people, for many the most difficult day is Christmas. This particular holiday more than any other means family is together, making the void of your loved one even more acutely aware. Listed below are some suggestions others have found helpful in coping with the holiday season. Chose the ones that will help you:
Keep it simple. Holiday tasks can seem overwhelming. Instead of cooking an elaborate meal, have your guests bring a dish, order food out or ask someone else to cook.
Accept help. Although you may have been the one to handle holiday preparations in the past, these responsibilities can become overwhelming. Let your friends and family help you, and be specific about what they can do.
Eat wisely. Although you may not have much of an appetite, good nutrition can give you more energy and improve your mood during the holidays. Visit cancercenter.com/complementary-al
ternative-medicine/nutritional-therapy.cfm for nutritional ideas.
Know your limits. You aren't obligated to participate in every holiday activity. You may decide to decline some activities so you have energy to enjoy ones that are most important to you. Pace yourself, get plenty of rest and take time for yourself if you need it. Your loved ones will understand.
Be smart about travel. If you're visiting relatives or friends for the holidays, plan ahead to make traveling easier and more comfortable. Consider staying at a hotel so you have more time to relax.
Share your feelings. Sharing your feelings with others can help reduce stress during the holidays. Your loved ones may not know how to approach you or what to say, so communicate with them.
Nurture your spirituality. Participation in spiritual and/or religious activities, particularly during this time of year, can be a source of peace, comfort and hope for many.
Set goals for the New Year. Your dreams and hopes for the future may be different now. You can gain perspective and a sense of control by thinking about your goals for the year ahead and the things that matter most to you. Visit cancercenter.com/complementary-al
tual-support for more information.
Discover what the holidays mean to you. Try not to dwell on what may be missing or is different about this year's holiday season. Instead, focus on what the holidays truly mean to you, such as spending time with loved ones or being thankful.

CFDA Inducts 26 New Members for 2010, Including L'Wren Scott and Sophie Theallet
CFDA Inducts 26 New Members for 2010, Including L'Wren Scott and Sophie Theallet
>> Wednesday evening, Vera Wang moved almost all of the furniture out of her vast Park Avenue apartment to toast this year's 26 new CFDA inductees. "It may not be as big as Donna Karan's loft, but I can fit you all in," Wang said of her duplex, which she estimated was hosting 300 guests. Tommy Hilfiger and wife Dee Ocleppo were impressed, however — The Cut caught them exclaiming: "It's amazing. The kitchen is sick. Our kitchen is like, a tenth of that size. That's like a restaurant kitchen."
The new members include: Waris Ahluwalia — who said of the honor, "I feel like I almost should put this on my passport as my fashion visa. It's nice to make this baby official!", Steven Alan, Lisa Axelson of Ann Taylor, Lubov Azria, Shane Baum of Baumvision, Vicki Beamon and Karen Erickson of Erickson Beamon, George Esquivel, Robert Geller, Gary Graham, Ulrich Grimm of Calvin Klein, Sang A Im-Propp, Anthony Keegan of Commonwealth Utilities, Adam Kimmel, Nikki Kule of Kule, Kimberly McDonald, Rebecca Minkoff, Bibhu Mohapatra, Juan Carlos Obando, Monique Péan, Monica Rich Kosann, Pamella Roland, Robert Rodriguez, L'Wren Scott, Shelly Steffee, and Sophie Theallet, who just moved into a new office space.

May 4 in Cardiff. Really excited about this fight.
Newman by stoppage, either Sub or KO.
hahaha yeah Chris.
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
Quality fight, WAR TIMMEH!
Valley of Kings - Coming Soon
But he has career wins over
Taisumov 18-4
Kalabekov 14-4
Vladimir Zenin 11-4
Latomaki 18-10
"Frodo" Khasbulaev 18-5
Whilst his losses have been to UFC vets Hamid Corassani, Anton Kuivanen. Plus McGregor and the uber-tough Sergey Golyaev
I think a lot of people are going to write Buchinger off after the McGregor KO. Personally I have Newman taking this, but I can see it going into deep waters, probably to the bell.
Fighting, writing and mood lighting.

Can I produce milk even if my second child is already 2yrs old?
It really breaks my heart not to be able to breastfeed my children. I have some anxieties though. I have a goiter and I have 2 cysts already and I was afraid they would inherit it if a breastfeed. Can I produce milk even this late?

Hi all,
we're working on the Italian translation of Drupal, and we've encountered a problem with the translation of 'May' month.
The problem is that this string is used both for long format and medium format, so 'May' is 'May' in both cases.
With Italian (but I suspect also in other languages, long format for May is 'Maggio', while medium format is 'Mag' (which is the abbreviation of 'Maggio').
The problem is that only one string exists. How should we translate it ?? with long or medium format ??
thanks for any suggestion !

From the Heart: A Creative Approach to Writing
It can be frustrating, demoralising even, to be too afraid or intimidated to express either in speech or in writing what is going on in one's mind. It's one thing to write enough to complete a class assignment or to please a teacher; it's another to really use and take ownership of one's language, and express oneself from one's heart. The main goal of From the Heart is to encourage just that. The exercises are designed to give students the opportunity to develop language skills while at the same time using their own, individual creative talents. The activities were selected with several goals in mind: To help students explore their own creativity in a supportive environment; To help them discover that inspiration for writing is everywhere; To build their confidence in voicing their own heartfelt ideas; To provide abundant opportunities to practice their newly acquired skills; To help them feel comfortable about getting -- and giving -- feedback that improves writing. As they achieve these goals, they will find themselves more confident and comfortable with their new language, producing texts that are much more interesting than standard classroom fare, and really writing from their hearts.

TALENTED BCoT staff and students supported a Rotary Club's Garden and Craft Fair by selling some of their own hand-made work.
The Rotary Club of Basingstoke has run the fair at Milestones Museum for a number of years to raise funds for charity, and this year's event was as popular as ever.
As well as many plant stalls, the event boasted a variety of crafts on offer, from jams and chutneys to hand-made ceramics.
The staff and students from BCoT also showcased their work, which included cushions, badges and artwork.
Natalie Jameson, head of art and design at BCoT, said: "As well as being an enjoyable day out, the fair is a great opportunity for our students to see how their work appeals to a wider audience – and perhaps even earn a bit of pocket money.
"The Rotary Club always put on a well-organised event, and it's good to know that our stall fee is going to charity."

A Guide to the David M. Young Papers, 1950-1999
Biographical Note
Professor David M. Young, Jr. is widely recognized for his contributions to numerical solutions of partial differential equations and to scientific computing. Born in Massachusetts in 1923, Young received a Ph.D. in Mathematics from Harvard University in 1950. His dissertation is considered to be one of the early milestones in the history of scientific computing. Young's career paralleled the dawn of computer technology, and thus he was one of the first mathematicians to combine numerical analysis with computer science. Upon his arrival at the University of Texas in 1958, Young founded the Computation Center and served as its director until 1970, when he then founded the Center for Numerical Analysis (CNA). Young served as director of the CNA until 1999, and remains at the University of Texas as Ashbel Smith Emeritus Professor and Director Emeritus at the Center for Numerical Analysis.
Scope and Contents
This collection documents Professor Young's publications. The holdings include his personal copies of reprints and monographs, as well as his work published by the Computation Center (assigned the serial code TNN) and Center for Numerical Analysis (with the serial code CNA). In addition to these publication files, the papers contain several miscellaneous files such as unpublished reports, a copy of Young's dissertation and a volume of the correspondence leading to his appointment as Ashbel Smith Professor.

– September 9, 2008 – Grand Banks today unveiled a new addition to its growing Aleutian Series of raised pilothouse yachts, the 72 Aleutian SC. Scheduled for launch in 2009, this new model joins the 72RP as the largest and most luxurious yachts in the Grand Banks fleet.
One look at the 72SC, however, reveals a key difference between this newest Aleutian and the original 72RP. Where the earlier model boasts an open lower cockpit with stairs up to the main deck level, the 72SC instead features a main deck that extends aft from the salon to the transom on one level - creating a wonderfully large outdoor living area covered by the flybridge deck above.
In addition, the 72SC will be the first Grand Banks to offer the option of a four-stateroom layout.
"The 72SC is a beautiful new alternative to the original RP model," said Neil McCurdy, Vice President of Sales and Service for Grand Banks. "The spacious aft deck is ideal for entertaining, dining with friends and family, or simply enjoying the outdoors. And the option of a fourth stateroom is something more of our customers are looking for today."
Both the 72SC and RP offer new interior arrangements and accommodation layouts, including a stunning full-beam master stateroom. Sophisticated new styling, recently introduced to the Aleutian Series with the newly-launched 65RP, features contemporary and Asian influences to the décor and furnishings while remaining grounded in Grand Banks traditional nautical sensibility.
What has not changed is her top-performing Fexas-designed hull, highly acclaimed for its stability, safety, and comfort when cruising in open waters.
Together with the 59RP, 65RP and 72RP models, this new Grand Banks has contributed to making the Aleutian Series a rapidly growing segment of production for Grand Banks Yachts. As a result, the company has remained strong despite challenging markets in the U.S. and other parts of the world.
"These new Aleutian models have driven very strong sales for Grand Banks across the globe," said McCurdy, "to the point that the Series now accounts for over 40 percent of revenues this past year, and more than 20 percent of our current production backlog."

Recently, I've taken the habit (not in my CPAN modules, though) to add the following snippet at the beginning of all my test scripts:
eval { require Test::More; }; # and other Test:: modules
print "1..0 # Skip Test::More missing\n", exit if $@;
This is because I do not expect the people who install those modules/scripts to run the test suite, and I don't want the installation process to whine about Test::More missing (if it's in the Makefile.PL) and stop and sulk.
I think that the Test:: modules should not be part of the prerequisites for using a module. Am I right?
PREREQ_PM despite the ubiquity of
Test::More - there is a large difference between the test environment and the code itself, and making it impossible to build and install a module when test environment dependencies are missing just seems wrong.
BEGIN block in each test file is to override the
test target in the
Makefile by cr
If you can't run the tests, then how do you know that your users can actually use the module?
In fact, the conclusion came to me after posting that entry:
It would be nice to separate the test prerequisites and the usage prerequisites.
I've just been told (hi Maddingue [perl.org]!) that Module::Build [cpan.org] allows this (well build_requires is not quite the same as a test_requires, but probably close enough).
build_requires in Build.PL but for the tests only:
Maybe you could ask Ken Williams to add this for the next release of Module::Build?
I think Test::Simple should be marked as a dependency. It really is needed to run the basic tests to confirm the module works. If you need other more esoteric Test::* modules then test scripts which degrade gracefully may be a good idea. Unfortunately, that would not allow you to take the fullest advantage of the the service provided by the wonderful CPAN-Testers team.
On a related note, many CPAN modules are also repackaged in RPM,
Unfortunately, that would not allow you to take the fullest advantage of the the service provided by the wonderful CPAN-Testers team.
Well, I take for granted the fact that all CPAN testers have at least all the Test::* modules installed.
I take for granted the fact that all CPAN testers have at least all the Test::* modules installed
Yes, but surely that's largely as a result of those modules being listed as prerequisites in the distributions being tested.

Crystal were the tears of Amaterasu which fell to Ningen-do and laid alone, slowly hardening in this transparent material. [1] Kuni scholars believed that the original tears of Lady Sun solidified before actually touching the Realm of Mortals, and it made that crystal focused its purity inward rather than outward. [2]
Scarcity Edit
Crystal was a rare find in Rokugan, and as such any mines were quite valuable. The Ashalan were rumored to be able to do great things with crystal [3], and weapons made from crystal, such as a Crystal Katana, were great weapons against the Shadow [4] and the denizen of the Shadowlands. The effect was devastating against the oni, causing hellish agony with even the slightest touch. Its radiant aura blinded the oni, and the would shy away from its brightness. [5]
Abilities Edit
Crystal was an uncorruptible substance that was present in all realms. While able to wound oni, crystal did not protect against the Taint in the same way that jade did. These remnants of the Sun still have enough of a kinship with their owner to affect the Lying Darkness. They still possessed a fragment of her True Sight, so light refracting through crystal could see through the Darkness. [1] The Ashalan were able to form Crysteel from sand, an impossibly light and strong material and used it to make weapons. [6]
Elements Edit
Crystal and jade shared they were composed of all five elements in harmony. [7] It glowed in presence of the Shadowlands Taint. [5]

FedEx Converts 92 Trucks to Hybrid-Electric
FedEx has converted 92 of its existing, dirtiest delivery trucks to hybrid-electric powertrains.
FedEx announced it has added 92 hybrid-electric trucks to its delivery fleet. In and of itself, that's good news, but there's a unique twist this time: the company did so by converting 92 of its oldest, dirtiest trucks.
The converted hybrids were developed in tandem with Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation and Eaton Corporation, the latter of which provided the hybrid drivetrains. Fedex chose existing 2000 and 2001 model trucks that had 300,000 to 500,000 miles on them--with the added benefit of extending the life of the vehicles and reducing waste production, in addition to vastly improving their emissions performance.
FedEx said in a statement that the retrofitted trucks should improve fuel economy by 44 percent, decrease particulate matter by 96 percent, and reduce smog-causing emissions like Nitrous Oxide (NOx) by 75 percent. The new trucks will deliver packages in California, mainly in LA, San Diego, and San Francisco. The conversion brings the total in the fleet to 264 -- not a huge number, but every little bit helps.

Barium enema
Barium enema
A barium enema is performed to examine the walls of the colon. During the procedure, a well lubricated enema tube is inserted gently into the rectum. The barium, a radiopaque (shows up on X-ray) contrast medium, is then allowed to flow into the colon. The flow of the barium is monitored by the health care provider on an X-ray fluoroscope screen (like a TV monitor). The test is used to detect colon cancer. The barium enema may also be used to diagnose and evaluate the extent of inflammatory bowel diseases.

How Creatives Should View 'No' As The First Step To Getting A 'Yes'
Former advertising partner Gideon Amichay discusses how the word "no" is in fact the key to greater success down the road.
No matter what field you work in, ideas are often met with a barrage of "no"s from those in position of power. For creatives, this experience can occur daily, with doors metaphorically slamming in their faces. This is a fact that Gideon Amichay knows well, both in his career in advertising and his passion for cartooning. In his new book No, No, No, No, No, Yes: Insights from a Creative Journey, he discusses how each rejection he receive throughout his career meant a yes was not far behind.
Amichay began his creative journey in New York, at the School of Visual Arts, where he began submitting cartoons to The New Yorker for weeks on end with only rejections until an editor wrote "sorry" on the notice. It was then he understood that no came with a comma, and that the secret to receiving a yes was understanding what came after that comma, whether it was just bad timing or a need to improve the product. This was the attitude he took with him back to his homeland of Israel, where he worked to create ads for a firm. There, he pushed his team to create ads they thought would never be made, not to work outside the box to work outside of their preconceived ideas of what would get approval. The results were innovative billboards for Yellow Pages (above) and Safer Driving in Israel (below).
The design of the book is also unique in its approach. While the physical book looks sizable, there is in fact little text within, focusing more heavily on the images to present an argument rather than text. As the reader moves from page to page, there's a sense of the passage of time as Amichay's narrative unfolds, whether it's waiting for a positive response or feeling the long struggle of dealing with no's over and over again. Like Amichay's advertising, the book is set up in an unconventional way that ends up emphasizing the message better than the standard format would have.
Amichay's tale and philosophy is an inspiration to creatives in all businesses and industries. Often times, "no" does not mean a complete shutdown, but rather a need to for an idea to go back to the drawing board, to retool and reimagine concepts, pitches, designs to best fit the project, publication, or platform. Understanding that a yes is on the horizon encourages people to work harder, better, and in new ways, leading to the success that "no" seemed to obscure.

Migration is performed without user participation. Each account can keep your files and contacts. Look at the advantages of the new service.
Hotmail to Outlook.com email
Microsoft launches today the migration of 300 million email accounts for new mail hotmail.com to the multinational Outlook.com. and expected to be completed this summer change, said Rafael Rios, product marketing manager at Microsoft.
Spain is among the countries with the largest number of accounts as it has about 14 million users.
The change is made without involving Microsoft users so that one day they will find the new interface that defines the multinational as "clean and intuitive" and will continue to send your mail at the same Hotmail account with now (Outlook pointing their guns into Gmail).
However, Internet users may wish to rename outlook hotmail account and still receive messages sent to the old name, Rios said.
Advantages Outlook.com
Advantages. Among the advantages of Outlook.com face Hotmail emails are scheduled cleaning, ease unsubscribe from a newsletter, photo viewing and online content, and very easily to use with touchscreen capabilities.
Microsoft opened its new service in testing email Outlook.com the last day of July and already has 60 million users of which a third are also Gmail users as noted Rios who explained his success by being a service designed "from the beginning", according to user needs.
Integration. The change comes from the new Microsoft policy to unify their services that integrates with Skype messaging (click Here), storage and email SkypeDrive brand in Outlook.
Outlook.com account
The change is to be performed by servers, not so countries and expect to be done without any hassle for the user who may have the service online customer service, as usual.
In the new email advertising is removed the "banner" and no talks are used to send users related advertising but if the update of the contacts that are on Facebook or Twitter.
Very soon will integrate Skype voice service in the new post.

The Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Ministry plans to start preparing for an experimental opening of the Isahaya Bay floodgates in Nagasaki Prefecture in June.
The work might be delayed because the Nagasaki Prefectural Government and other entities are opposed to opening the floodgates, part of a controversial dike that was built for a major land reclamation project vehemently opposed by coastal fishermen.
The Fukuoka High Court ordered the central government in 2010 to open the gates by the end of December 2013 to see whether it would affect the environment in the Ariake Sea. The ruling was spurred by a lawsuit filed by fishermen in four prefectures on the Ariake Sea who argued the project had severely damaged their fishing grounds.
In Nagasaki, however, opposition is mounting because opening the gates will of course resoak the reclaimed areas, exposing them to high tides, salt water and reducing agricultural water.
But there are also concerns that clam and oyster farming inside the dike could be negatively affected.
To win over such opponents, the ministry plans to keep the water level inside the dike unchanged after the opening, introduce desalination equipment to ensure adequate supplies of agricultural water, and install drainage pumps to prevent salt pollution, ministry officials said Wednesday.

Despite efforts by beauty industry organizations and professionals to "sunrise" California's Board of Barbering and Cosmetology, the Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) established its Barbering and Cosmetology Program Advisory Council on July 1, 1997, to help govern licensees and protect the public welfare.
The council is made up of 23 representatives of different segments of the beauty industry, including two public members, and it is regulated by the DCA. It provides the DCA with professional and technical assistance and advises it about specific beauty industry issues. "It's been business as usual," says Susan Harrigan, assistant program administrator. "We still provide testing, issue licenses, and inspect salons in California. And we discipline salons that harm consumers."
A variety of organizations in California had worked to forestall the sun-setting of the board. Robert Gross, who was executive director for the now-defunct California Cosmetology Coalition, says that the current advisory council has been very helpful to salons and nail technicians. "Under this new format, there is room for more open discussion," says Gross. "While the board was concerned with consumer protection first and foremost, the council promotes discussions about industry issues that wouldn't have been appropriate under the board."
One example of the council's progress is its new curriculum review task force. The group has met twice to review the current beauty school requirements for licensing and has made recommendations for change. "We are reviewing what schools are required to teach," says Harrigan. "We are also analyzing how nail technicians are prepared, to ensure that consumers are protected, that the nail technician has academic freedom, and that what the nail technician is taught is relevant to the marketplace."
Another industry group, the non-profit Barbering & Cosmetology Legislative Alliance (BCLA), is still actively pursuing the state board's sunrise. Marcus Moreno, BCLA chairman who is also on the current advisory council, says that the nine-member board had a better structure than that of the council. "With so many council members it is hard to get input from everyone. Also, the council, which has only met about a half-dozen times, has no governing power and, to date, has made no substantial recommendations," he explains. "The structure of the state board worked because it had nine members who were able to make regulation changes upon industry input immediately."
Currently, the BCLA has lobbied to bring SB 184, which would re-establish the state board, all the way through to the state assembly. The NMC, as well as many manufacturers, industry labor unions, and distributors, endorse the bill.
"Because of the NMC's ongoing commitment to ensure that regulatory acts governing the salon industry are fair, representative of the current practice, and provide protection for the health and safety of clients, it supports California salon professionals with regards to SB 184," says Paul Dykstra, executive director of die ABA.
If SB 184 passes and is signed by the governor before the session ends in August, the California state board will be able to return to power in January 1999. If it is vetoed, Moreno says the BCLA will try again with the newly elected governor.

Bar Refaeli: Passionata's Valentine's Vixen
She's always been easy on the eyes, and Bar Refaeli is parlaying her sex appeal into a Valentine's Day promotional campaign.
Letting her natural assets do the talking, the 27-year-old stunner dons a red and black see-through bra and French knickers from Passionata on her way to the mailbox to retrieve her love letters.
And given Bar's obvious "wow" factor in the ad, it's hard to believe that she has trouble fetching a gentleman caller.
Refaeli previously told press, "Let's put it this way, no one hits on me. No one flirts with me. It's very sad, actually."
As for her favorite feature in a guy, Bar confessed, "The first thing I notice is his teeth. I have a fetish. I like a great smile and really white, bright teeth."

More drought looming if rains do not return, USGS warns
***EDITORS AND NEWS DIRECTORS: USGS scientists will be in the field this week in Maryland doing streamflow and groundwater monitoring. Call Butch Kinerney at (703) 648-4732 for details on this good opportunity for drought-related visuals. ***
Last summer's drought may move westward this summer as streamflows in many parts of the United States continue below normal. At a Monday press conference, USGS Director Charles G. Groat warned that continued below-normal streamflow and low ground-water levels may signal a return of last summer's drought.
Based on data from the USGS network of more than 7,000 streamgages nationwide, there are some areas of the country -- particularly east of the Mississippi River -- where streamflows are at record-low flows for this time of year.
"This is the time of year where streamflow conditions should be about normal, but in the eastern half of the country, we're anywhere but that." Groat said. "We should be seeing ground-water recharge taking place now and we're not seeing that either."
There is a slightly different phenomenon occurring from last year's drought. Now, the drought is moving west, clearly into the Appalachians and the southeast, he said. These are areas that did not receive recharge from the last year's busy hurricane season like the eastern seaboard did. USGS scientists are also seeing near record-low streamflows in the Ohio Valley, the center of the Midwest, the Lower Mississippi River Basin and into the southeast.
Groat joined Commerce Secretary William Daley, Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman, NOAA Administrator James Baker and National Weather Service Director Jack Kelly at the press conference to discuss the spring and summer drought forecast.
"Think of it as not having enough money to put into the bank," Groat said. "In some areas of the country, we don't have enough water now to put into our groundwater bank. This is the time of year we are supposed to be recharging our savings -- our groundwater and reservoirs. That hasn't happened this winter and so we don't have the buffer we need when we start making withdrawals in the summer. When our dry summer hits, we may not have enough in savings to get through without problems. We anticipate additional drought problems in the months ahead based on the low volume of surface and ground water we're seeing now."
The U.S. Geological Survey provides federal, state and local agencies with streamflow and groundwater information so water-use managers, decision-makers, public safety agencies and citizens can make well-informed decisions about droughts and floods. The USGS continues to play a pivotal role in providing critical earth science information to those who need it most. In the next two years USGS proposes investing more than $6 million in its real-time streamgaging network in new stations and upgrades to existing stations -- all of which will help communities become safer, more livable and conserve our vital natural resources, Groat said.
Real-time streamflow data is available from the USGS at http://water.usgs.gov.
As the nation's largest water, earth and biological science and civilian mapping agency the USGS works in cooperation with more than 2000 organizations across the country to provide reliable, impartial, scientific information to resource managers, planners, and other customers. This information is gathered in every state by USGS scientists to minimize the loss of life and property from natural disasters, contribute to sound economic and physical development of the nation's natural resources, and enhance the quality of life by monitoring water, biological, energy, and mineral resources.

SC07 Cluster Challenge Showcases Accessible Computing Tools
The Association for Computing Machinery
Advancing Computing as a Science & Profession
Contact: Virginia Gold
New York – January 8, 2008 – At the first ever Cluster Challenge at SC|07 in November, undergraduates from six university teams, supported with hardware from their vendor partners, competed to demonstrate the accessibility of entry-level supercomputing. The contest showed that supercomputers, once the province of elite universities, government research labs, and a handful of large businesses, are accessible to people interested in pursuing science, simulation or modeling. The event demonstrates the immense potential for accelerating the pace of discovery and boosting competitiveness in the global environment.
The teams assembled clusters – hundreds of PC's all linked together in a fast network - on the SC|07 exhibit floor, and ran benchmarks and applications selected by industry and high performance computing (HPC) veterans. Top honors went to the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada using equipment loaned by SGI of Mountain View, California.
Brent Gorda, who chaired the first ever Cluster Challenge at SC|07, said the event sought to highlight the ease of use for this form of supercomputing as well as the power of current-generation hardware and the availability of software to make it all work. "Computer simulations are vital to everything from climate change to biofuels, from Hollywood movies to high performance golf clubs," said Gorda, who is an architect with the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
Although the challenge focused on scientific applications, Gorda pointed to a range of applications for cluster technology. "The hardware and software infrastructures have become extremely accessible. Financial companies use clusters for pricing models, energy companies rely on it to find oil, and pharmaceutical companies access it to simulate drug uptake in the body," Gorda said. He noted that even for consumer items like golf clubs, cluster technology speeds the construction of leading-edge products, accomplishes world class testing and simulation, and brings new generations of products to market, keeping everyone at the top of their game. "This event illustrates that the technology can be had for low cost and without a PhD.," he noted.
Of equal interest to the Cluster Challenge organizers is the impact of this technology on competitiveness in the global economy. "We predict that this cluster technology will soon be considered critical to enhance competitiveness of businesses of all sizes and in all markets," Gorda added.
A significant outcome of the contest was its impact on the curricula of the participating institutions. According to Gorda, fully half of the schools have decided to modify their undergraduate offerings in the future to include cluster and parallel computing classes.
The other teams competing in the SC|07 Cluster Challenge were:
- Stony Brook University and Dell, Inc.
- National Tsing Hua University (Taiwan) and ASUSTek Computer, Inc.
- University of Colorado and Aspen Systems, Inc.
- Indiana University and Apple Computer, Inc.
- Purdue University and Hewlett Packard Corp.
A second Cluster Challenge is slated for SC|08 November 15-21, in Austin, TX http://sc08.supercomputing.org/ to be sponsored by ACM and IEEE Computer Society.

Augustinian Province of the Most Holy Name of Jesus of the Philippines
Historical background
The Province of the Most Holy Name of Jesus of the Philippines of the religious Order of St. Augustine was officially formed on December 31, 1575 as an offshoot of the establishment of the first permanent Spanish settlements in the Philippines by Adelantado Miguel López de Legazpi. In 1565 Legazpi arrived in the Philippines at the head of an expedition sent by Viceroy Luis de Velasco of New Spain to discover islands west of the Moluccas upon the orders of the Spanish monarch. Enlisted to guide the perilous voyage was the famed navigator Andrés de Urdaneta (b. 1498 - d. June 3, Mexico, 1568), an Augustinian friar.
Although a veteran of previous voyages across the Pacific, Father Urdaneta was reluctant to take part in the expedition, let alone command it. When he declined the offer to lead, the responsibility fell upon the shoulders of Legazpi. At age 51 and in poor health, Father Urdaneta considered himself retired as a navigator especially after having earlier turned his back on the world by joining the Augustinian Order in Mexico.
But when King Philip II of Spain ordered the viceroy to "prepare a fleet of discovery" of the western islands near the Moluccas and wrote Father Urdaneta a letter asking him to guide the voyage, he felt compelled to obey for "the glory of God and the expansion of our faith." The Spanish Crown between 1525 and 1542 had sent several expeditions to strengthen its claim on the Moluccas, but none of these voyages had found a feasible return route across the Pacific to Mexico. Having ascended to the Spanish throne, Philip ll ordered his men to concentrate their efforts on the Philippines, a move that was also meant to avoid further conflict with the Portuguese, the main Spanish rival in this frenetic period of the Age of Discovery.
Augustinians: first Catholic missionaries in the Philippines
If the greatest missionary work of the Augustinian Order has been displayed in the Philippines, it is because they were the first Catholic missionaries there. Father Urdaneta and four other Augustinians -- Fathers Martín de Rada (b. 1533 - d. 1578), Diego de Herrera, Pedro de Gamboa and Andrés de Aguirre -- started a successful apostolate in Cebú as soon as they landed in 1565. Legazpi founded the first Spanish settlement there in a spot where his men had stumbled upon a statue of the Child Jesus in a burnt hut after a skirmish with the native inhabitants to impose Spanish sovereignty. He named the place Villa del Santísimo Nombre de Jésus in honor of the Holy Child. The Spaniards considered it miraculous to have found the statue, a gift from Ferdinand Magellan to the wife of the chieftain of Cebu after her conversion to Catholicism in 1521. Father Urdaneta returned to Mexico and decided to stay after being dissuaded by his family and friends.
Meanwhile, hardships brought about by lack of food, harsh living conditions and probing attacks mounted by the Portuguese from the Moluccas forced Legazpi to set sail for Panay island, where he replenished his supplies and planned for a definitive voyage to Luzon that led to over 300 years of Spanish colonial rule in the Philippines with the establishment of Manila on June 24 1571 as the capital of the new Spanish colony.
Formation of a new province
To provide a steady source of missionaries to the Philippines following the founding of the Province of the Most Holy Name of Jesus of the Philippines, a seminary was created in Valladolid, Spain. Under the leadership of Father Alfonso Gutierez, 24 Spanish Augustinians in 1575 landed in the islands and, with the guidance of both Fathers Herrera and Rada, worked very successfully, at first as itinerant preachers. Their missionary zeal played a pivotal role in the evolution of the archipelago into today's only Catholic nation in Asia. In Manila, the Augustinians had been given a piece of land within the walled city of Intramuros to build a church and a monastery. Father Herrera became the Province's first prior provincial.
San Agustín Church and Monastery is closely tied to the history of the Philippines for it was here where the Augustinians had planned and carried out the evangelization of the country and had first introduced Western ideas to the natives while serving as a vanguard of resistance against the state. Father Rada denounced abuses committed by Spanish authorities against the local population and reported these to Philip ll. His vigorous advocacy for justice has earned him a place in history as the "Defender of the Natives." A key document in this matter was his Parescer del Provincial fray Martín de Rada, agostino, sobre las coasa de estas tierass ("About the abuses committed against the natives in the collection of tributes"), dated at Manila, 21 June 1575.
The missionaries of the Province have given the world valuable descriptive works on Asian countries and their peoples especially in the early days of Western presence in what was then the inscrutable East. Included in this key Augustinian contribution are Father Cipriano Navarro's important work on The Inhabitants of the Philippines and a monumental work in six volumes by Father Manuel Blanco titled Flora de Filipinas (Madrid, 1877--). Both works are priceless contributions to literature and learning. World-renowned botanist Father Blanco had built a botanical garden for his plant experiments in Intramuros that became the basis for his internationally-acclaimed book.
Fathers Ignacio Mercado, Antonio Llanos, Andrés Naves, and Celestino Fernandez are also worthy of mention as well as Fathers Angelo Perez and Cecilio Guemes who published in 1905 a work in four volumes titled La Imprenta de Manila.
Among the contemporary members of the Province carrying this tradition of excellence are the leading Catholic poet Gilbert Luis R. Centina III, historian Fathers Policarpo F. Hernández and Pedro G. Galende, whose coffetable book Angels in Stone documents all the churches built by the Augustinians throughout the Philippines over the centuries, and artist Father Blas Sierra de la Calle. The latter is the curator of Museo Oriental de Valladolid of the Royal College of the Augustinian Fathers in that city. The museum is said to hold the most extensive collection of Asian art and artifacts in Spain.
Since 1565 to the present, more than 3,000 Augustinian missionaries have dedicated themselves to apostolic, social, and cultural labor in the Philippines, China and Japan. The Augustinian missions in the Philippines have provided missionaries for the East since their first establishment. In 1603 some of them entered Japan, where several were martyred, and in 1653 others reached China, where in 1701 the Order had six missionary stations. Father Rada was one of those who visited China, and he reported extensively on his findings and impressions about the country. He is considered to be the first ambassador of the Philippines to China during colonial times.
Before the Philippine Revolution of 1898, the Augustinians administered over 400 hundred schools and churches in the islands. In 1904 they established the University of San Agustin in Iloilo City that eventually emerged as the largest Augustinian educational institution in the world in terms of student population and the only Augustinian university in the Asia-Pacific region. They have also served as the custodians of the Santo Niño Shrine in Cebu City, which houses the centuries-old image of the Child Jesus recovered by Legazpi's men in 1565, within Asia's only basilica -- the Basilica del Santo Niño de Cebu, now under the care of the all-Filipino Augustinian Province of Santo Niño of Cebu that separated from the mother province in 1984.
The Province in 1968 reestablished Augustinian presence on the Indian subcontinent, which passing Augustinian missionaries first reached by way of Goa in 1542. Incidentally, these four men -- Fathers Jeronimo de Santisteban, Nicolas de Alvarado, Sebestian Reina (or de Trasierra), and Alfonso de Alvarado -- once they had returned to Spain, became the first four priests and members of a religious order to have sailed entirely around the world.
From its houses in Spain and its missions in the Philippines, the Province in the past had deployed missionaries to Brazil, Colombia, Peru, and Venezuela. At present, it is actively involved in training and sending missionaries to Tanzania. In the United States, its friars run the Holy Rosary Parish-East Harlem in Manhattan under the Archdiocese of New York. Based in Madrid, the current prior provincial is Very Rev. Fr. Carlos F. Moran,OSA who replaced in July 2006 Very Rev. Fr. Luis F. Rodriguez de Lucas,OSA.

Donna 'Noa' Bursie, teacher at City Honors, musician
Aug. 27, 1956 – Oct. 12, 2013
Donna "Noa" Bursie, of Clarence, a teacher and singer-songwriter noted for her stirring, soulful vocal style, died Saturday in St. John's Hospice after a lengthy illness. She was 57.
Born in Buffalo, the youngest of nine children, she was a graduate of Bishop O'Hern High School and earned her bachelor's and master's degrees in education from the University at Buffalo.
Miss Bursie taught world literature at City Honors School until two years ago, when she retired because of poor health.
Well-known in Buffalo's music scene for more than 20 years, she began playing guitar as a teenager, picking up an instrument that her mother originally had given to her brother Michael.
"She could do magic with it," he said.
In the 1990s, she led a folk-rock band called Maya. Later, as a solo artist, she released two CDs – "Talk Story" in 2005 and "Familiar Addiction" in 2008. In 2007, she was an opening act for Richie Havens, India Arie and Los Lobos.
She also was a regular performer at benefit concerts and collaborated with lyricist Christina Abt on a tribute song for the victims of the Flight 3407 plane crash in 2009, "Love Knows No Boundaries," donating the proceeds to a memorial to the tragedy.
Michael Bursie said his sister frequently performed acts of uncommon generosity. In one instance, he said, when a woman in front of her in a supermarket checkout line was unable to pay for her groceries, Miss Bursie took care of the bill, which was almost $200.
She converted to Judaism about 10 years ago and took the name Noa, one of the daughters of Zelophehad from the Book of Exodus.
Survivors include a son, Zachary; four brothers, Michael, John, Ernest and William; and two sisters, Aline Balduc and Corrine Penn.
Graveside services were held Saturday in B'Nai Israel Cemetery, Cheektowaga.

Timer.Enabled Property
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
This property cannot be set because the timer has been disposed.
The Interval property was set to a value greater than Int32.MaxValue before the timer was enabled.
Setting Enabled to true is the same as calling Start, while setting Enabled to false is the same as calling Stop.
The signal to raise the Elapsed event is always queued for execution on a ThreadPool thread. This might result in the Elapsed event being raised after the Enabled property is set to false. The code example for the Stop method shows one way to work around this race condition.
If Enabled is set to true and AutoReset is set to false, the Timer raises the Elapsed event only once, the first time the interval elapses.
If the interval is set after the Timer has started, the count is reset. For example, if you set the interval to 5 seconds and then set the Enabled property to true, the count starts at the time Enabled is set. If you reset the interval to 10 seconds when count is 3 seconds, the Elapsed event is raised for the first time 13 seconds after Enabled was set to true.
Some visual designers, such as those in Microsoft Visual Studio, set the Enabled property to true when inserting a new Timer.
The following code example sets up an event handler for the Timer.Elapsed event, creates a timer, and uses the Enabled event to start the timer. The event handler displays the SignalTime property each time it is raised.
using System; using System.Timers; public class Timer1 { private static System.Timers.Timer aTimer; public static void Main() { // Normally, the timer is declared at the class level, // so that it stays in scope as long as it is needed. // If the timer is declared in a long-running method, // KeepAlive must be used to prevent the JIT compiler // from allowing aggressive garbage collection to occur // before the method ends. You can experiment with this // by commenting out the class-level declaration and // uncommenting the declaration below; then uncomment // the GC.KeepAlive(aTimer) at the end of the method. //System.Timers.Timer aTimer; // Create a timer with a ten second interval. aTimer = new System.Timers.Timer(10000); // Hook up the Elapsed event for the timer. aTimer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(OnTimedEvent); // Set the Interval to 2 seconds (2000 milliseconds). aTimer.Interval = 2000; aTimer.Enabled = true; Console.WriteLine("Press the Enter key to exit the program."); Console.ReadLine(); // If the timer is declared in a long-running method, use // KeepAlive to prevent garbage collection from occurring // before the method ends. //GC.KeepAlive(aTimer); } // Specify what you want to happen when the Elapsed event is // raised. private static void OnTimedEvent(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e) { Console.WriteLine("The Elapsed event was raised at {0}", e.SignalTime); } } /* This code example produces output similar to the following: Press the Enter key to exit the program. The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2007 8:42:27 PM The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2007 8:42:29 PM The Elapsed event was raised at 5/20/2007 8:42:31 PM ... */

It is starting to feel more official. On Tuesday I received access to my Stanford GSB email account. Now I have to try to figure out how to get it to work with my mobile device.
One cool thing about the mail program is that I can look up all admitted applicants who have submitted their deposits as well as current students. I wish Stanford had a more comprehensive search program like HBS's "classcard" database, which allows you to search admitted students by undergrad institution, location, company, etc. I'm sure that I will have access to a complete directory as a student, but it would be nice to start figuring out who is going to be in my class.
And congratulations to all round 2 admits! Hope to see you in Palo Alto.
