Blank "Page Banner was Clicked From:" - Tracking referrals

Hello Everyone!
We are currently a merchant with SAS and have been noticing a trend with a few affiliates. Several affiliates seem to always have the field "Page Banner was Clicked From:" blank. First, we're wondering what affiliates might be doing to prevent this field from being populated. Two, why would an affiliate want to mask this information? Three, what can we do about it?
Any help in figuring this out is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Take a moment and view the following Wiki entry!
Referrer hiding
Most web servers will maintain logs of all traffic, and record the HTTP referrer sent by the browser for each request. This raises a number of privacy concerns, and as a result a number of systems to prevent servers being sent the real referring URL have been developed. These systems work either by blanking the referrer header or by replacing it with inaccurate data. Generally, internet security suites blank the referrer data, while web based servers replace it with a false URL, usually their own - of course, this raises the problem of referrer spam. The technical details of both methods are fairly consistent - software applications act as a proxy server and manipulate the HTTP request, while web based methods load websites within frames, causing the browser to send a referrer URL of their website address. Some web browsers give their users the option to turn off referrer headers.

missing referer can also happen when the shopper comes back to your site via their browser history or even a pasted email link. If it is consistent for only a few affiliates, they may be redirecting or cloaking their links, maybe you could ask them?

2busy, thanks so much for the response. I've asked affiliates, but have not received a response and it continues to happen with each of their transactions. I did a bit of research through SAS help center and did find out there are legitimate reasons for this field to be blank. It's not so much that the field is blank that concerns me, it's the fact that it continues to happen on every transaction for two particular affiliates. The lack of response doesn't help.
You mentioned redirect and cloaking, what are the reasons an affiliate would do this?
January 11th, 2010, 02:20 PM #5
I can't answer why they are doing it but redirects are common with PPC ads, and a good number of affiliates use cloaking for appearance/ shopper confidence. Redirecting is also a means of cloaking. There are many threads at ABW that cover these topics, it may help to use the Search and read through the "Becoming a Merchant" forum here.

They could also be cloaking the urls.
I use a redirect plugin for Wordpress called Pretty Links. It makes the urls look like www.mysite.com/whatever-I-put-here instead of the regular affiliate link. Those links do not show the referrer.
It makes the links look better but it bothers me somewhat that it's not passing the referrals. I, too, like to see where the click originated from. As long as I use the cloaked link on one page, I will know where it came from, but if it's a sidebar link on every page, I'll never know.
It is against EPN's TOS to not pass the referrer. I'd imagine in the future that might become more of standard for other merchants.

Why hide the referrers?
There are a couple of common reasons that haven't been mentioned.
- They are doing PPC and don't want you to see the keywords that they are using.
- They don't want you to see how they are marketing your items, so that you don't take their ideas and implement them.
- The links are on a secure site (https).
- They are doing something that breaks your TOS and are trying to hide.

Letter(s) from Elena Vasilyeva to Andrea (Italy)
Letter 1
Hello! Thank you for your letter!
My name is Elena. I'm from Russia.I'm in Moscow now!Sorry, but I absolutely badly know Italian! I hope, that you can write to me in English, or use the translator!
Probably you ask how has I found you!? I'm very grateful to my friend who has helped to find me a site of acquaintances and have helped to create profile on this site.
We for a long time sat and thumbed through pages of this site, and I could not choose whom that from the big list has not encountered yet yours profile. For it it was not similar to anothers profiles, also has written the letter for you. I'm very glad that you have written to me, in fact I very much hoped for it.
I'm 33 for the moment. I work as an economist for a company.
I like singing. And I cook good, as well as sing :-)
I live alone far from my parents. I would love to meet a sensitive person who could understand and love me. I am convinced - the principal things in relations between a man and a woman are love and mutual understanding. May be this will sound idealistic but my dream is to get married with a man of my dream and to have kids!
Would be pleased to correspond with you...
My parents live not far from me, in Tver it's 200 kilometres from Moscow, I spent my childhood here. I think we'll communicate with you and our communication will be very interesting.
As I understood you're very interesting person, I want to learn more about you.
I want to prolong our letters, thats why I'l not tell everything about me in the first letter, also I want to get a lot of letters from you.
How do you treat Russia and russians?
I'll answer all your questions. I am waiting for your reply impatiently.
P.S. please send me more your photo, I'd like to have it in my mailbox :)
Letter 2
Hi Andrea !
I was very pleased to receive your letter! I did not expect, that you will answer so quickly! I want to learn more about you.
I read magazine in which spoke that set of girls from Russia marry foreign men. There some histories as girls have found the love through the Internet have been told and live happily with the husbands abroad. Except for that I well know the English language and quite independently I can speak on English. And I have decided to try to find the happiness in your country. Unfortunately I for a long time did not practise my English and probably you cannot understand some my words. Now we've an opportunity to communicate with you.
What would you like to know about me? Please, do not hesitate to ask me I will answer you with pleasure. A few words about myself: As you might already know I'm 33 years old girl. I have never been married but feel ready to make the family with the good and honest person. I want to find the person who will love me and take care of me. I hope that our relations which are so fragile yet will grow day by day. Happiness in the Family is everything which is necessary for the lonely girl such as I am! This's all I need.
I am already an adult girl and I need my own family!
As I already said I work as an economist in IT-company. I worked at many other places before. It is very nice, I like it very much. Also I like cooking! I can make a big variety of dishes! My mother used to say that it's very important to cook tasty and delicious food to become a good wife. My favourite is the Russian cuisine!
My mother says I do it very good however I don't eat that much.
What kind of food do you like?
I think I know English well enough for us to understand each other I studied English at school then at the University. Unfortunately I have neither sisters nor brothers. I feel lonely and it is so difficult to live without man's support, without strong man's shoulder on which I would lean. Fortunately I have some good friends who are always with me and help me.I like pets, but, unfortunately, I do not have opportunity to contain them! And how you concern to pets, for example, to cats or dogs?
I am very much interested in you Andrea and our relations.
It's all for now,
p.s. This short video specially for you! I hope, that it was pleasant to you :)
Letter 3
Hello Andy.
Thank you for your nice letter. Each your letter makes my day by more light! Thanks for the photos! I like the mvery much! You are very nice!
It was so interesting to me to learn more new about you.
I'll tell you about me and about my interests.
I'm vigorous woman, do not like to sit on a place. I'm simply pleased with this fine life. I like to walk, enjoy the nature, in fact the finest thing that is in the world is that the nature has presented to us. I like to walk in park, to enjoy a sunlight, to be pleased with warm days. I like to go to cinema, theatre. In the winter skate. All this delivers to me weight of pleasures. I think that all music is meaningful differently it would not refer as music. So music is fine sounds, which are pleasant for hearing. But with the great pleasure I listen to classical, romantic music.
I like sport. I like various kinds of sport: volleyball, swimming, aerobics and dancing. Also I adore traveling with friends around my country. Sometimes we take the tents, make there a fire, sing songs, fool, tell terrifying stories and cook the food. I like cooking very much: usually fish soup, millet porridge, and toasts.
Generally we have a goodtime.
I adore flowers in all their displays. I think that they make our life beautiful everywhere: at home, in the streets, at work. As for me I think there is no woman who does not like flowers at all. I prefer bloody red roses, delicate lilies, and noble irises. When there is a vase of flowers in the livingroom or on the bed-table it means that you will be elated all the day, have a desire to do the best for everybody.
So I think that's all for now.
Bye, Andy

Letter 4
Hello Andy!
I am glad to hear from you again. Thanks that you have written me Andy. I think that every new letter pulls us together more and more. I think that you know much about me now. I was familiar with many young people, but I didn't like any of them. Now I know you and I think we can be very close friends. I hope that I have made the right choice. I do not want to risk. I want to be happy and to love the person who will make me happy. I write you with pure intentions. Do you think we can be happy together?
Once I had long relations with one guy. We were dating for two years. I thought that we would marry one day. But suddenly he became so cold with me, he began to treat me so bad, started to drink a lot and spend most of the time with his friends. And they were telling stories about me, something very horrible that I've never done. He became rude with me. He spent time with other women. I was so upset and after that I disappointed in all Russian men. Since that passed one year already.
Recently my friend told me that it is possible to get acquainted with the man through the Internet. I didn't believe in this but decided to try. And I have found you. I am very happy that we write each other. It is very important for me. I want to be happy with the man and to spend with him the whole my life. I will try to make my man happy. But without his help and his love and understanding it would be impossible.
I think I'm ready to try such a wonderful feeling as love again.
Andy I hope that you will understand my words.I want to know your opinion about all this. I want to learn more about you. About your soul and background.
What is the most important for you: material or spiritual values?
Andy I would like to receive more of your pictures.
I will wait for your answer with impatience.
Your friend Elena!!!
Letter 5
Hello dear Andrea,
Sorry that I didn't write to you so long. I was very busy at work.
I hope it will not be anymore. I am very pleased that you answered me.
Thank you for your interesting letter! Your letters always bring me a lot of pleasure and happiness. When I read your letter I feel, that you are the kind and good person, and you will never hurt me!
Andrea my heart starts to beat more often when I read your letter, and I think, that you are that person whom I waited for so long. Andrea I am pleased, that we are so similar and it is wonderful to feel that you are interested in me! I promise you, that I will be sincere in my letters! Last night I talked to my mother about us. I'm very close to her and I decided to tell her, that I correspond with you.
I said that you are not from Russia and she encouraged me.
My mother was glad to hear that I met a good person (that's what I told her about you, as you are really very nice) but warned to be careful because she remembers how I suffered with the previous boyfriend. But I ensured her that you are not that kind of man who will make me suffer. I told her how interesting and important you are for me and she gave me her blessing and said she would pray for us! Yesterday evening I had good time thinking with my mother, what to write you about me in this following letter.
I hope, that it is pleasant for you! They say I have good character, and I'm not interested in married men because to destroy their family is very bad! I want to tell you that if we shall be together one day I will try to be a good wife for you and will never deceive you with another man!
I think to betray the husband it is the biggest sin and I am not capable to do this as many other women! I want to be the best wife I even read the book in which key rules of the good wife were written. My life target is not the money but the happiness in family. I don't want to say, that if everything is ok with us I will sit at home and keep the house, I would like to find the job if you don't mind. As for my education I have good knowledge! I studied for the economist approximately for 6 years and I'm good at it.
Andrea I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
Your Elena
Letter 6
Hello Andrea,
It is so pleasant to receive your letter again!
You filled up my life with a new feeling which I forgot for quite a while. It is so wonderful!
Recently I have told my girlfriends about you. They were very surprised, that I have found the man of my life through the Internet. They heard, that lots of Russian women get acquainted through the Internet and come to live in the foreign country with the husband, and they wish us good luck! They wanted to know all the details concerning our correspondence but I said that it's very private and told them just a few general things about us (for them not to feel jealous that such a wonderful man correspond with me not with them)! All my girlfriends are married and their husbands are Russian. Unfortunately most of them are unhappy in family and there are many reasons for that and they even envy me that everything is ok with us!
I am very pleased that our relations do the right way!
I will think of you this evening.
Take care.
Your Elena.
Letter 7
Hello my Andrea.
Darling I was thinking a lot about us and I am sure, if we decide to be together, I will never leave you till the end of my life. I wrote you about myself, about my interests and my situation. I am looking only for serious relationship, not for a short adventure. I'm not that kind of girl who wants to take advantage of men. If I was looking for a man just for one night I would find him here in Russia, it's not so difficult. But I'm looking for something different, something serious. I need the long-term relationship, very serious and fulfilled with deep feelings towards each other, satisfaction in every moment of being together, not only physically, but also spiritually. This is my desire about long lasting relations. I hope you want the same thing. I would be glad to have a man like you in my life. I am a woman for only one man and really reliable. I have never had short relations and I don't want it. I think great feelings to each other need time to grow. Andrea be sure I will wait for it.
Kiss you
Your Elena
Letter 8
Hello honey Andrea
How are you my dear?
Sorry that I didn't write to you yesterday. I came back very late and I was very tired. Sorry me. And what did you do this weekend?
When I think of you, my darling, I become so happy and it is so pleasant and joyfully in my heart that I want to fly far away in the sky. Now I know that I can not live without you, without your words, without your embraces and kisses. Andrea You are the person whom I was looking for the whole my life and I don't want to lose you. You are my sense of life. I have nothing but you in this world.
I will wait for your letter with impatience.
A lot of kisses to my darling, Andrea.
Your loving Elena.
Letter 9
My sweetest Andrea!
I am very tired today on work. There was a lot of work.
Therefore I write to you so late. Sorry me Andrea I very inattentive.
I do not understand why I have not seen at once that you asked my phone number. Sorry me I am very inattentive. Call to me on this number at any o'clock convenient for you my love. 79096578513. When I read your letters, and I don't know what to say. I feel like I have found a treasure and that is you!!! I really didn't expect to find such a wonderful man like you Andrea. Today I was thinking about you only, I want you to know, that makes me happy! Now I know that if one day I hold you in my arms I will never let you go. Believe me, I will never let you leave me Andrea.
But sometimes I ask myself: is that true or I'm only dreaming?
Is this an eternal love, or just a beautiful illusion? If it is just a dream I don't want to wake up! Sweety, when you close your eyes do you see me? I do and I don't want to lose this ability to see you when I think of you or read your letters. You see how easy is to fall in love when there are two willing hearts, with only the best intentions. My dear Andrea, I am willing to travel thousands of kilometers, because I believe that you can show me what the love is. I believe you can change my lonely life. Andrea I want to show you how wonderful life is when you are in love. Honey, I believe in the power of love! It is the light that shines in your eyes, it is the warmth that fills your heart.
It is the beautiful song of two hearts beating together!
I love you!!!
Letter 10
Hello my love!
I'm very glad to see your letter Andrea and I think you'll glad to see my too. Today is more cold here and I'm thinking of you all days.
I thought a lot about me and you and it will be so great to meet. How do you think tell me.
I tell you all about my life and I'll tell if you will ask more.
I can write about myself much, but is much easier learn each other at personal meeting. In fact even 100 or 1000 letters will not make even the tenth share of that can make acquaintance face to face.
I had a dreams about our meeting I really want to know you, speak with you, take your hand and see your eyes Andrea.
My girlfriends and my parents says me that I must tell you Andrea that we need to meet. They will be happy if I find my love. I think we have chance with you .I want to try to use this chance with you Andrea. I'll wait for your answer with impatience.
Many, many kisses for you
Letter 11
My honey!
I want to say that I'm always thinking about you Andrea, about us, and the distance between us,you are so natural and full of love that I want to be there right now with you. Closer then close, body to body, I want to feel you, smell you, touch you, hear you, and it's not possible for this moment, that hurts right know. This makes me suffer!! I'm dreaming to be happy in my life, happy to meet you, I want to make you happy, that you feel comfortable with me without fears, that you can trust me,I want to love you like you have never felt this before, doing things together and having fun, I have so many ideas in my mind that you will never be bored, life is a serious thing but it must be surprising at the same time,you only live once. Andrea I want to surprise you, I am your surprise!! I must feel passion, so much that it hurts, only then I can give myself and talk about my feelings. I know Andrea you can give this feeling because I get excited of you only of your words. Passion is a chemistry that you can not explain, it's spiritual, it's understanding without speaking. Love means for me a deep mutual feeling of understanding and respect, I can't live without knowing that somebody loves me. I'm sure I could love still, because I know it exists,I can give it, I want to give, but not to everybody, only for a special person who has the same feelings for me. Then I can say with no doubts Andrea you are all I need. Accept the defects of the partner when living together.My last thought before I go to sleep is you Andrea. In my thought you are with me, close to me, and I look in your eyes, I kiss your lips, and hold your hands, again I look at you, and give you my smile, I hold you, I kiss every piece of your body softly and in the morning I think the same. Andrea I love you so much, I can't explain, you are so sweet, please, be like this for ever and I'll love you for ever.
Many, many kisses for you Andrea
Your Elena.
p.s. Tomorrow I will go in travel agency to know what I need to come to you in Italy. I love you my honey.
Letter 12
Hello my darling Andrea.
As always I am so excited to get a letter from you.
I'm always dreaming about us Andrea. I believe that you are my second half and the destiny helped us to meet. It is our chance to be happy and we can't miss it. It would be unfair. I understand that we don't know each another for long time and we haven't met but I don't care. I just know what I feel inside and my heart tells me everything. I would never believe that I could fall in love with the person I have never met in the real life. But now I have experienced it and I believe in it. Everything could happen in this life. And there is nothing strange in it. Andrea I need to tell you one thing. It is really very important for me. But I need to know that you trust me Andrea. You shouldn't have any concerns about me. I don't deserve it.
Honey I found a travel agency which will help me to make all need documents to come to you. I didn't want to use somebody services because it costs money, but in Russia I can't do documents without help of travel agency. They told me all necessary documents I need to come to you. So I know how much does it cost... I was upset with it very much because I cannot pay for it myself! I even now don't know what to do? The visa, the insurance, the medical inquiry and services of agency costs 320 euro and tickets costs 396 euro. Honey can you help me with this problem? I can't find other exit from this situation! What do you think? I think that we should find a way how we could faster meet each other. I want to meet you very much my honey!
Visa will be ready in 9-10 days after I'll pay for it. I want to come to you very much to see you Andrea. If you will help me with money this week about 1st November I shall arrive to you. We can learn each other much better than on correspondence. What do you think about all this?
I have only serious intentions about you. Just write me that you trust me and I'll be not scared to tell you this. I need to tell you this, because it is very hard to feel it inside and not be able to tell you. Please, dear tell me, that you trust me and that you don't think that I am weird. It is not so, I am just very sensitive and sensual person. Andrea you mean everything for me in my life. I just can't imagine my life without you anymore. I will better die than lose you Andrea. My life will be empty without you, it will have no meaning. Please, be honest with me and write me your thoughts. Do you trust me? Take care, honey. You are in my heart. Many, many kisses.
Yours forever Elena

Hello my love.
The more I correspond with you Andrea, the more I understand that can not be without you. You became mine air, my dream.
Now my purpose of life became a meeting with you. I can not live without idea about you and my life is filled with you.
I want to see you to hold you for a hand and to become transfixed in your embraces.
Andrea do you feel the same? Do you want to be with me and to dream of our future?
I do not present my life without you Andrea, you gave me a string of hope for happy life and have rescued me from loneliness. I understand, that it is difficult for you to understand my feelings to you still. But all my words it is sincere also these words go from most my heart. I already understand, that I am not lonely in this world, now I have you Andrea. I would be glad, if you agreed to divide with me life. Perhaps, my words will seem to you naive, but I want to be your wife and the friend all our life. I'm ready to divide with you all pleasures and griefs of this life. I want to make our life happy and provided. I know, that we are waited ahead with love and happiness. How you represent ours the future meeting?

I want to look every day in your fine eyes and to receive huge pleasure from employment by love with you. Andrea I want to feel you all my body, each cell of my body. I want to cover you with kisses and to feel your kisses on me. If we would not meet soon I cannot live more. I want to come running to you and never to let out from my embraces.

High Point-based New Breed Logistics apparently has some old boy problems at its Memphis, Tenn., location. A warehouse supervisor's misdeeds have now cost the company $1.5 million, plus legal fees, after a federal jury found the company guilty of harassing and firing three female temporary workers.
The same supervisor also fired a male worker who agreed to testify on the women's behalf.
The jury heard testimony that the supervisor subjected the women to unwelcome sexual touching and lewd, obscene and vulgar sexual remarks at the company's Memphis warehouse facility. When the women complained, they were fired.
They complained to the EEOC, which tried to mediate the issue with New Breed. When those efforts failed, the EEOC filed suit and the case went to trial. The jury sided with the women and the fired man, awarding $177,094 in back pay, $486,000 in compensatory damages—and $850,000 in punitive damages.
Note: If can't show you seriously investigated a sexual harassment complaint, just get out your checkbook. You'll have no defense.

Murdoch Grant
This article needs additional citations for verification. (June 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Murdoch Grant (died March 19, 1830) was an English itinerant peddler and murder victim of which the unusual circumstance regarding the capture of the murderer resulted from a local tailor who claimed to have witnessed the events in a dream.
During the spring of 1830, Grant visited the village of Assynt in the Scottish Highlands of Sutherlandshire to attend a wedding March 19. However, after disappearing between Drumbeg and Nedd on March 11, his body was discovered four weeks later by a farm servant passing by the Loch-for-na-eigin, a remote mountain lake located almost a mile from Drumbeg. After dragging his body ashore, the servant observed the peddler's pockets had been emptied and turned inside out (Grant was known to be carrying a considerable amount of money) and his backpack missing as well as marks on his face showing signs of foul play.
However, local authorities were unable to solve the crime and Grant's murder remained unsolved for some time. However, after the local postmaster casually mentioned to sheriff Lumsden about changing a £10 note with a suspicious looking man shortly after Grant's disappearance, sheriff Lumsden questioned schoolteacher Hugh Macleod. After Macleod denied the postmaster's claim, the sheriff arrested Macleod and ordered a search of his house.
None of the peddler's belongings were found however and, shortly before the sheriff was to release Macleod, a tailor named Kenneth Fraser came forward claiming he had experienced a dream in which he saw a vision of Macleod's cottage and in which he heard a voice speaking in Gaelic which told him "The merchant's pack is lying in a cairn of stones, in a hole near their house."
Leading authorities to Macleod's home, several articles belonging to Grant were found under a pile of stones. While there was some doubt to the tailor's story, the discovery of a pair of stockings later found in Macleod's possession later provided enough evidence to bring Macleod before a Court of Justice. Tried before Lord Moncreiff of the circuit court in Inverness on September 27, Fraser testified against Macleod, who was found guilty of his murder for which he later confessed before his execution.

Quality Assessment Information
WHO Safe Surgery
The World Health Organisation (WHO) safe surgery check list is completed before and after surgery by the surgical teams to ensure avoidable errors endangering lives are reduced. The checklist has improved anaesthetic safety, ensures correct site surgery, avoids surgical site infections and improves communication and teamwork amongst the surgical team.
Uses care pathways
The hospital uses care pathways which are evidence based tools to help a patient with a specific condition or diagnosis move progressively through the clinical experience, demonstrating continuous quality improvement in a safe and cost-effective manner.
This facility was quality assessed in 2013

•We want overall time resolution of 20-30 ps from MCP-PMT.
•We will for sure need to sample full 25ns range per BX.
If we use 9-bit time index:
• sample window = 25ns / 512 = 49 ps
• contribution to resolution = window / √12 = 14 ps
If we use 10-bit time index:
• sample window = 25ns / 1024 = 24 ps
• contribution to resolution = window / √12 = 7 ps
•The sustained rate for min-bias.
• 7.7×106 hits per PMT per second for lumi2
• 7.5×107 hits per PMT per second for lumi20
• Assuming 20 bits per hit (10 for channel, 10 for time),
we get per PMT a sustained rate of 0.15 Gb/s for lumi2, 1.5 Gb/s for lumi20.

They are not the only people to have done this as Alpha Romeo did it with their T-Spark engines.
According to them, it caused the furl in the head to burn faster and more efficiently as it was being ignited at two places simultaneously.
The Royal Enfield Thunderbird also used this in its 350.
For a 2-stroke like the MT, this would probably go a long way to making the acceleration a little more immediate - not that it really needed it!

Nine to stand trial over league star's uncle's murder
A Brisbane Magistrate has committed nine people to stand trial in the Supreme Court, charged over the murder of the uncle of footballer, Johnathan Thurston.
Richard Saunders died after a brawl with a group of men and teenagers in a Woodridge Park last October.
It is alleged the males - aged 15 to 25 - attacked Mr Saunders and two of his friends - Harold Bond and Gordon Willis - in a dispute over a stolen purse.
After more than a week of evidence, Magistrate Noel Nunan today found the group has a prosecution case to answer.
The accused also face charges of grievous bodily harm and assault occasioning bodily harm.
They will all face a trial in the Supreme Court in Brisbane on a date to be fixed.

Welcome! My name is Eve Marshall and I am a full-time artisan felter and teacher.
I have been based in Aslackby, Sleaford in Southern Lincolnshire for the past 6 years. Previously I lived in the US for 23 years and have the accent to prove it. Although British born, I definitely don't sound like I'm from 'round here. I began needle felting over 10 years ago and started teaching it when I moved back to the UK. I love working with wool because it is such a versatile medium. I create needle felted sculptures of animals, wet felted vases and bowls, framed felted artwork, beads, bags and so much more.
I teach regularly at Stamford Arts Centre, Art in the Heart Gallery in Peterborough and private classes in my own home. I also often get invited to WIs, schools, craft groups and other art centres to teach. Wet Felting classes are great for everybody and I have taught people from 2 years old to 102 and everyone in between. People of all abilities can create with wool. I design my classes and my methods of felting so that they are accessible to everyone and so that people are proud of what they are bringing home.
I have been featured in a couple magazines, sold and taught at the Country Living Fair in London and now I've started selling my unique felting kits on TV. I enjoy creating artwork for exhibitions and I have been part of both solo and group exhibitions in both the UK and abroad. The pieces I create to sell always incorporate nature, animals and flowers. I am inspired daily by the Lincolnshire countryside and enjoy creating quirky unique pieces out of wool.
I really enjoy collaborating with other artists and last year I taught people to make poppies for an amazing WWI commemoration project on Edith Cavell with Charron Pugsely-Hill. This year we are teaching more people to make poppies, watch this space to find out more.
For my exhibition in March 2016 at Stamford Arts Centre I collaborated with Shalini Austin to create some unique birds including this wacky Dodo which she created the face and feet for. Shalini and I have created a lot of pieces together after discovering that copper and wool work so nicely with each other.
I am one of the founders of ESC Artists and we annually curate exhibitions at Stamford Arts Centres including two pop-up shops and an exhibition. To escape the ordinary click here.
I will be on TV next on January 13th 2017 from 6 to7pm on Hochanda Freeview 85, freesat 817 & sky 663 or online www.hochanda.com

ROCHESTER — Police are still investigating who had the right-of-way in the Route 11 accident that sent three people to the hospital on Wednesday.
The accident occurred just after 2 p.m., at the intersection of Route 11 (Farmington Road) and the Exit 15 off-ramp of the Spaulding Turnpike. The intersection is controlled by a traffic light, and while police believe one of the drivers had the red light, it has not yet been determined which driver had the right of way, said Police Capt. Gary Boudreau.
Jennifer Rothwell, 32, of 174 David Drive in Wakefield, who was driving a Ford Ranger pickup truck, was sent to Frisbie Memorial Hospital with serious injuries. The other vehicle involved was a Chevrolet Impala, driven by Marie Reed, 75, of Farmington. Both Reed and her passenger, Deborah Reed, 57, of Farmington, were sent to the hospital as well.
None of the injuries suffered in the accident are considered life-threatening, according to police.
The patients' conditions are currently unknown, as Frisbie Memorial Hospital officials did not return phone calls from Foster's on Thursday.
Police say the accident occurred when the Ford Ranger, traveling east on Route 11, was in a collision with the Impala, which was taking a turn onto Route 11 from the Exit 15 off-ramp, after traveling north on the Spaulding Turnpike.
The pickup sustained damage to the passenger side and the Impala had front-end damage. Both vehicles were towed from the scene.
The accident remains under investigation by Rochester police and the Strafford County Technical Accident Reconstruction (TAR) Team.
Rochester police are asking anyone who may have information that could assist with the investigation to call Officer Ball at the Rochester Police Department at 330-7128.

By Martin Fawcett, creative director of Bluetouch design at bezier
In-store marketing, as with all marketing channels, must continuously strive for great ideas and innovations that cut through the 3,000 shopper messages we each see every day.
Even the most integrated campaign ideas still need additional 'va va voom' in-store; shoppers have less dwell time, more messages to absorb and greater distractions than in any other marketing environment - without additional creative support even the biggest marketing ideas can be lost.
The role of the creative team in the in-store environment is therefore entering a new era. As pressure to convert shoppers into purchasers increases, the skills and experiences of the in-store creative team must be at the top of their game.
For the majority of in-store marketing campaigns, brands and retailers rely on static visual impact, printed materials and substrates. This can be effective, but it can also add to the 'campaign lottery' in-store.
Bezier's creative arm, bluetouch, focuses on creative shopper marketing and combines the skills of experienced creativity with global innovation insights to maximise in-store 'cut through'. The era of multi-sensory marketing is here to stay, and in-store marketing agencies must draw on interactive characteristics to make the most of client's campaigns.
The in-store creative teams now have the responsibility of integrating new technologies into campaigns to drive shopper engagement. Bluetouch is currently working with communication technologies like electronic inks, RFID, directional sound and interactive projection to influence shopper engagement and experiences.
It is now possible to change visual content in-store remotely via satellite, direct audio messages to specific area of store, project emotive content that is interactive and enable individual products to activate messaging when selected from the shelf.
Multi-sensory technologies will become an increasingly larger influencing factor in in-store communication as shoppers become more receptive to engaging with brands through action and stimulation.
What is important is that the in-store designers use this 'era' to maximise the experience and place pressure on the technology providers to continually challenge the creative processes for in-store marketing.
It is the creative in-store teams, the designers and innovation marketeers that will shape the best practice of shopper experiences in-store; that will create the most effective cut through to evoke shopper action and will, ultimately, be the key influencers of integrating technology into this new era of in-store marketing.
It is the role of the brands and retailers they work with to challenge and encourage their in-store agencies to tackle shopper communication as a multi-sensory experience.

Steps to Writing an Interesting Short Story. SWBAT: By the end of this unit, I will be able to explain the steps of the writing process, explain what makes a good story, and create my own interesting short story. Writing a short story.
Download Policy: Content on the Website is provided to you AS IS for your information and personal use and may not be sold / licensed / shared on other websites without getting consent from its author.While downloading, if for some reason you are not able to download a presentation, the publisher may have deleted the file from their server.
SWBAT: By the end of this unit, I will be able to explain the steps of the writing process, explain what makes a good story, and create my own interesting short story.
A short story has a beginning, middle, and end. The characters meet and interact around a conflict. This allows the author to convey a message, known as the theme.
Your task is to create your own short story using the steps outlined in this presentation.
Follow a consistent point of view (the view point or perspective the story is told from) Remember first person and third person point of view?
Develop believable characters so that the readers can identify and understand them; so readers can relate and connect to the characters.
The setting should be consistent with the characters' personalities.
Develop a plot that includes conflict, rising action, climax,and resolution
5. Contain a theme or message for the reader
6. Show, instead of tell, about the characters, theme, and conflicts.
7. Use specific descriptions using good verbs and adjectives.
8. Use appropriate imaginative language and imagery
9. Use literary devices appropriate to your story, such as flashback, foreshadowing, metaphors, etc.
10. Use dialogue when appropriate, Are your characters going to talk to each other?
11. Be of appropriate length, 200-800 words or around 1 to 4 pages maximum.
12. Make sure that each character, action, and word lead to a single end. Does your story makes sense? Does it end appropriately?
Scary story: the goal of a scary story is to scare your reader. To do so, a character must face something frightening: a panther perched on a tree limb, wild river rapids, or being trapped in a haunted house.
Fable: are stories that teach lessons or morals. Morals are sayings like, "The early bird catches the worm," or " Look before you leap." The characters in fables are often animals.
Urban fiction: is set in a large city and shows characters in conflict with the environment. Life is usually seen as being very challenging and difficult.
Mystery: to write a mystery you need a crime, a list of suspects, and a star detective. The goal of the mystery is to solve the crime.
Science Fiction: shows life in another time and place, often in the future. While things may be different in the new world, they make sense within the context of the story.
What is the rising action?
What brings events to crisis?
What happens as a result of the crisis? What is the climax?
What is the end result or resolution?
Do the characters change as a result of their experiences? If so, what makes them change?
What does the character sound like when he/she talks?
How does he/she behave?
How do others react to the character? Do they see the character in the same way?
Does the character see him/her the same way others do?
Have I used effective sentence structure?
Are my paragraphs appropriate to the story?
Are my descriptions specific rather than flowery?
Have I included any of the finer points of literature; figurative language, imagery, foreshadowing, flashback, etc.?
Is my message clear? Have I avoided stating the message, making it, instead, evident through the action and resolution of the story?
Have I selected an appropriate title that suggests some important element of the story?
Make sure your story is creative, check your word choice, check your spelling and grammar, and fix and irregularities you found while proofreading.

Not all fields in Salesforce custom object are searchable in Salesforce. For example, you can refer to this documentation for more information.
If you have a lookup field such as Contact Lookup field, you can implement the following workaround:
1) You have a Contact lookup field in your custom object. This field will only keep track of the Contact ID.
2) Create a new text field (searchable). You don't have to expose this field in the layout.
3) Create a workflow that copies the Contact Full Name into this Text field.
We talked about how Salesforce can turn into a Subscription Billing System in our previous blog post and illustrate how a standard full month subscription items can be recorded automatically.
Apart from handling the standard full month subscription, it should be capable to handle pro-rata scenario too. This is important as not every subscription starts from the first of every month and customer should be credited appropriately.
Imagine that a customer subscribes to your services/products in the middle of the month (i.e. 13th Mar 2013). The first month should really be charged from 13th until 31st Mar instead of the full month. And so the final month of the subscription that the customer too should be charged accordingly.
To find out in more details on how can the pro-rata scenario can be handled in Salesforce, feel free to check out our recently published case and contact us for more information.
If you have a picklist type field in Lead, and you have the following HTML for this field:
Preferred contact method: <select id="00NN0000000AcD1" title="Preferred contact method" name="00NN0000000AcD1"> <option value="">--None--</option> <option value="Phone">Phone</option> <option value="Email">Email</option> </select>

Salesforce has an out of the box Quote feature which include allowing users to customize the Quote form template. However, there are some restriction when customizing the Quote form appearance.
Example of signing a signature electronically during the Quote creation:
The signature inserted is then included in the PDF sample of our customized Quote:
Salesforce object view allows records to be displayed based on the filter criteria of your choice. And the fields to be filtered are restricted to within its object as such:
There have been requirements that:
This is mostly implemented between custom objects and occasionally involves records from standard objects. As an illustration of what is required, we will use the Salesforce standard objects as an example.
For a full description, please check out our use case here.
There are many data loaders in the appexchange market place that allow users to import data into Salesforce with ease. The data import user requirement can range from as simple as loading just a batch of records to as complex as loading a batch of cascading records into Salesforce. We have also encountered a number of customers who require that:
The above requirement provides the flexibility for the user to pre-select the records that should have automated association and manipulate the to be associated pre-defined records. We have a study case from a customer who has such preference listed here.
A public Document in Salesforce means that anyone can download the content even though they don't have a Salesforce login to your instance.
To do this, you need to:
1) Make sure that this Document has "Externally Available Image" checked.
2) Get the URL of this document by using the following URL.
https://c.<server>.content.force.com/servlet/servlet.ImageServer?id=<Document ID>&oid=<Organization ID>
For example:
Since the server is located at eu1 and if the Org ID is 00D200000007C7C, the URL should be:
Salesforce has recently released a new field data type called Geolocation (still in beta). Many customers from within the logistics industry and venue providers find it helpful in terms of:
Some information that can help developers understand this new data type are:
The following screen shots show how the feature can be utilised. The main objective of the geolocation usage for the following illustration is for the Salesperson to know the distance between the Headquarter office and the Branch office. We have included the steps on achieving the objective.
1. Create a 'Geolocation' custom field for the Headquarter office
2. Create a 'Geolocation' custom field for the Branch office
3. Create a formula field as such utilising the Distance function: DISTANCE(Headquarter_Geolocation__c,Branch_Geolocation__c, "km")
4. Assign the field to the layout accordingly
5. Get the coordinates of the locations (we use Google map in this example)
6. Populate the custom fields for the Headquarter/Branch office with coordinates from #5
Upon saving the coordinates, the user should be able to see the automated calculation of the distance between the two locations!

Engagio CEO Jon Miller: How to Land a Whale
January 3, 2017
"Traditional demand-based, lead-based marketing is like fishing with a net," said Engagio CEO Jon Miller. "You run campaigns and marketing programs, and stuff comes out the other end. What the account-based world is all about is that you have a list of names, but you don't wait around to see if those big fish swim into your net. Instead, you go fishing with spears."
2017: AI's Coming Out Party
December 20, 2016
AI will be having a big coming out party in 2017. While there are plenty of opportunities in this space for workers, executives, investors and partners, not every company that uses the term "AI" in its marketing will become a serious winner in the field. As advanced as AI is -- and I have seen some technology that would blow your socks off -- not every company is created equal.
Radius CEO Darian Shirazi: Solve for Data Decay
December 19, 2016
"One of the interesting things about CRM and marketing automation is that most of these systems have poor data quality," said Radius CEO Darian Shirazi. "Typically, customers buy data lists or get inbound leads, and the information associated with those accounts, opportunities and leads ends up decaying quickly and being inaccurate. The problem is keeping that information up-to-date."
Sales, Marketing Poised for AI Revolution
December 16, 2016
Artificial intelligence will revolutionize marketing in the next five years, according to a Demandbase survey conducted last month. Eighty percent of the 500 B2B marketers who participated in the online poll, conducted last month by Wakefield Research, said they expected an AI-fueled marketing revolution. However, only 26 percent were very confident they understood how AI was used in marketing.
Demandbase's CEO Chris Golec: Finding the Companies That Should Be Buying From You
November 30, 2016
"Account-based marketing is really about marketing to the accounts that are aligned with your sales team," said Demandbase CEO Chris Golec. It's been done for years, but today there's a whole technology and practice around being able to market to accounts at scale, and this wasn't possible until about four or five years ago. It's a focused, targeted marketing approach."
Apple Celebrates Itself in $300 Coffee Table Tome
November 18, 2016
Apple this week introduced a pricey book bulging with artsy photos of the company's products. Designed by Apple in California contains 450 photos of products created by Apple over a 20-year span. It's available in two sizes: 10.20 by 12.75 inches for $199 and 13 by 16.25 inchesfor $299. The linen-covered hardbound volume is dedicated to Apple's late cofounder Steve Jobs.
Marketo VP Mike Telem: ABM Lets You Dust Off Old Marketing Techniques
November 15, 2016
"Account-based marketing is all about targeting key accounts. It's a strategy for marketers to focus most of their efforts on key accounts," said Mike Telem, vice president of product marketing at Marketo. "In most B2B businesses, you have a small number of accounts that are the most valuable. So it makes perfect sense that focusing on those accounts provides a better return on investment."
Microsoft Rebrands
November 2, 2016
Microsoft recently rebranded its business software offerings and the effect largely has been positive. Still, it must be emphasized that the cumulative effect of the deck chairs moved in performing the exercise remains to be seen. One of the effects is surely that all of the ERP and CRM solutions now are offered online, as the "Dynamics 365" moniker implies.
Tech Industry Lambasts New FCC Privacy Rules
November 1, 2016
The U.S. FCC last week adopted privacy rules for both wired and wireless broadband ISPs aimed at giving consumers greater control over their data, more privacy, and stronger security safeguards for that data. The rules implement Section 222 of the Communications Act. They establish a framework of customer consent required for ISPs to use and share their customers' personal information.
The End of Marketing
October 27, 2016
This is going to be political but you won't be able to tell which side I'm on. You might ask, why on Earth would I get involved even tangentially in politics right now? The simple answer is that it impacts CRM and I have a viewpoint -- but as I say, I'm not picking or revealing a side. I've been doing research in business agility lately -- a fascinating area that soon will impact CRM.
Angry Customers Likely to Ditch Wells Fargo's Wagon
October 26, 2016
Wells Fargo Bank will lose customers in droves because of the scandal over fraudulently opened accounts and other issues, based on the results of an online survey cg42 conducted last week. More than 85 percent of the respondents -- 1,500 primary customers of the top 10 U.S. retail banks, including 1,000 Wells Fargo customers -- were aware of the scandal.
Big Data and Analytics: Creating New Value
October 14, 2016
The massive amount of data available from connected devices creates an unprecedented opportunity for increased optimization of products and services -- and, consequently, revenue. The deep investment in big data gathering and analytics is fueled by an ability to create added value for companies based on actionable business insights, and for consumers by providing lifestyle benefits.
Samsung Down, Galaxy Note7 Out
October 11, 2016
Samsung shares fell sharply on Tuesday after the company confirmed reports that it had halted production of its flagship Galaxy Note7 smartphone, just launched this summer. The move came after several replacement phones reportedly smoldered or caught fire. Shares fell 8 percent in the Korean market. Samsung had been working with the U.S. CPSC on a voluntary recall and replacement program.
Bring Back the CIO
October 10, 2016
The cloud revolution has made an enormous contribution to the evolution of sales and marketing software, as well as to business software of all types. There's a long list of benefits it's conferred on users -- from the ability to outsource security and maintenance tasks to the avoidance of manual upgrade processes, to the switch in payment modes, to a model more affordable for more businesses.
Consumers Warned of Exploding Samsung Washers
October 8, 2016
That's the situation Samsung found itself in last week when the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a warning about certain top-load washing machines made by the company between March 2011 and April 2016. "CPSC is advising consumers to only use the delicate cycle when washing bedding, water-resistant and bulky items," reads a statement at the commission's website.
Amazon Cracks Down on Review Freebies
October 5, 2016
In a bid to help bolster trust in its customer ratings, Amazon on Monday said that it no longer would allow most incentivized reviews -- that is, reviews written in exchange for receiving products free or at a discount. Such reviews comprise only a small percentage of the tens of millions of reviews of products sold on the site, maintained Amazon Vice President of Customer Experience Chee Chew.
Salesforce Ponies Up $340M Cash for Krux Data Management
October 4, 2016
Salesforce has agreed to acquire its Marketing Cloud partner Krux, which offers a data management platform. Salesforce will pay $340 million in cash and issue between 3.4 million and six million shares of common stock to consummate the deal, according to documentation filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday. That's worth an estimated $700 million in all.
Facebook Cuts Ribbon on New Online Marketplace
October 4, 2016
Facebook on Monday announced Marketplace, a new mobile app that facilitates buying and selling between peers. Marketplace allows members of a community to discover, buy and sell items, noted Facebook Product Management Director Mary Ku. The service is scheduled for rollout this week in the United States, UK, Australia and New Zealand. Users can access Marketplace by tapping a shopping icon at the bottom of the Facebook mobile app.
HPE and Apple: The Speed of Image Transformation
September 26, 2016
HPE and Apple are very different companies this decade, having shifted their models from a strategic customer/innovation focus to one that's more tactical -- and tied far more closely to quarterly profit. They are hardly alone, and this unfortunate trend is not tied to any one industry or any one country. Firms increasingly are defined not by creative products but by complaining customers.
Gryphon SVP Eric Esfahanian: Accuracy Is Paramount
September 8, 2016
It's surprising how much inaccurate data lives in many CRM systems, observed Eric Esfahanian, SVP of Gryphon Networks. "CRM is naturally a good source for analytics and sales intelligence if the data that lives within your CRM is automated, accurate, and something that you can reliably make decisions from," he said, and the key to accuracy is automation.
Verizon Toys With Risky App Revenue Plan
August 23, 2016
Verizon's reported consideration of a plan to preinstall mobile apps from major retailers and financial firms on users' smartphones has drawn sharp criticism. The carrier reached out to numerous retail and finance brands with an offer to preload mobile apps on its Android phones for between $1 and $2 per device, according to unnamed ad agency executives.
Time Warner Cable Really Doesn't Like Me
August 9, 2016
After surviving well over a year as a cord-cutter, I recently returned to the cable fold -- and after less than a month, I'm having major regrets. The problem isn't with the service itself or even with the pricing. The problem is with the lies. I wasn't entirely happy with my cord-cutting solution, but I wasn't eager to go back to a high-priced cable service either.
Fixing Apple's Problem
August 1, 2016
Apple last week reported earnings, and with the exception of a strong showing from the iPad Pro, the key financial metrics were all down -- and for the third quarter running. So what's wrong with Apple? The company had been growing alarmingly well until last year, but growth suddenly has become elusive. It isn't going out of business, but it also isn't the performance king anymore.
Verizon Customers Get No Respect
July 15, 2016
Why do customers seem to overreact when Verizon announces changes? Verizon's latest price hike has been causing angst in the marketplace -- at least on social sites like Twitter. Why does Verizon keep shooting itself in the foot? The short answer is poor marketing. Verizon's marketing moves show no care for the customer base, and that comes with at cost to Verizon.
The 4 Fundamental Attributes of Customer Loyalty, Part 2
July 14, 2016
Lots of CRM vendors talk about personalization, but their idea of how to do it leaves much to be desired. They address personalization very late, using a just-in-time approach to accessing customer data to support a sales or service encounter in the moment. This certainly is important, and it achieves the goal of personalizing the encounter by producing a catalog of data points.
Amazon's Big Day: All for Prime, Prime for All
July 12, 2016
Amazon on Tuesday launched its second annual Prime Day promotion, offering tens of thousands of deeply discounted lightning deals for top customers and ratcheting up the e-commerce competition. Walmart and others struck back in an aggressive effort to hold onto their key customers. Prime Day had a slightly bumpy start, with Some customers reported having problems checking out purchases.
The 4 Fundamental Attributes of Customer Loyalty, Part 1
June 29, 2016
As I see it, there are four basic capabilities, or attributes, needed to build better customer loyalty. I learned about them from two McKinsey researchers. Those attributes, according to David C. Edelman and Marc Singer -- and I agree -- are the following: automation, proactive personalization, contextual interaction and journey mapping.
Amazon Pushes Dash Buttons as Customers Give Them the Gong
June 29, 2016
Amazon on Tuesday announced a wide expansion of its Dash Button on-touch retail sales program, despite indications of relatively low acceptance among its key base of Prime customers. The company added more than 50 retail products to its lineup of Dash thumb-drive size buttons, which let consumers reorder things like detergent and toilet tissue when their supply is getting low.
Social's Turning Point
June 24, 2016
Microsoft's acquisition of LinkedIn for more than $26 billion has created quite a stir -- at least in my world. The deal can boast a number of superlatives: the largest sale of a consumer Internet company in history; the largest sale of an enterprise software/cloud company in history; the third-largest sale of a technology company since 2001; and the largest Microsoft acquisition ever.

David Weinberger, PhD, is one of the world's most respected thought leaders at the intersection of technology, business, and society. His latest book, Too Big to Know: Rethinking Knowledge Now That the Facts Aren't the Facts, Experts Are Everywhere, and the Smartest Person in the Room Is the Room, is a roadmap on taking advantage of networked knowledge now that it has replaced books and experts of old.
Dubbed a "marketing guru" by The Wall Street Journal, Weinberger co-authored the influential bestseller The Cluetrain Manifesto. Called "a primer on Internet marketing" by The Guardian and "the most important book since [Tom Peters'] In Search of Excellence" by InformationWeek, it was one of the first books to tell businesses what the web was really about. He is also the author of the critically acclaimed book Small Pieces Loosely Joined, a highly original and accessible reflection on the impact of the Internet on human behavior, and Everything Is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder, which uses the shift to digital music as the model for the future in virtually every industry.
One of the connected economy's most thought-provoking mavericks, Weinberger currently works as a strategic marketing consultant, working for, founding, and consulting with corporations of all sizes - from Fortune 500s to early-stage startups. He has been published in a variety of journals and newspapers, including Wired, Harvard Business Review, Salon, The New York Times, Smithsonian Magazine, and The Guardian.
Weinberger holds a PhD in philosophy from the University of Toronto and taught philosophy for five years at New Jersey's Stockton State College. Since 2004, he has been a fellow at Harvard University's prestigious Berkman Center, gag writer for Woody Allen, NPR commentator for "All Things Considered" and "Here and Now," technology columnist for KMWorld and Darwin Magazine, blogging pioneer, and dot-com entrepreneur.
An active blogger and former senior Internet advisor to the Howard Dean presidential campaign, David Weinberger speaks around the world about the web's impact on business and culture.
Speech Topics
The War Against Customers: What Marketing Can – and Must – Learn from the New Connectedness
The fundamental fact of marketing is that you're trying to get an unwilling customer to do something they don't want to do. That's why customers want to flee when they sense they're being marketed to. But suppose waging war against our customers – "targeting" them via "strategies" and "tactics" – isn't such a good idea? And suppose customers simply won't stand for it anymore?
Traditional marketing views itself as a type of broadcast, wherein a single voice gets to send a message to a mass of people. But the Internet is the anti-broadcast medium: it's not mass, it's not one-way, and it's not controlled by companies that can pay to send out a message. The Internet is, in fact, a conversation among your customers who are discovering that they are a far better source of information about products and services than the companies ever could be. This is the most fundamental shift in marketing since the creation of mass media. And it affects all marketing, on or off the Web.
In this keynote speech, the audience will learn how old marketing techniques actually alienate customers; the keys to engaging in the new customer conversations the market expects (and demands); and how to anticipate the most important change in customer dynamics and marketing since the invention of mass media 80 years ago.
The Information Revolution That Wasn't and the One That Will Be: How the New Dimensions of Information Are Transforming Business... and Life
Remember how in the '80s and then the '90s we were all going to drown in information? The information tidal wave crashed all around us... but we barely got wet. But don't relax too soon. The real change is already upon us.
We managed to survive the information tsunami by coming up with surprisingly good information management tools – who would have predicted Google would be so great? – and, frankly, ignoring much of the information that we've gathered.
It turns out that the quantity of the information hasn't changed our businesses or our lives so much. But changes are on the way that will bring about deeper and more profound changes in the most fundamental dimensions of life and work:
- Place: Thanks to wireless networks, mobile devices that know where they are, and clever tools that figure out what spots documents are talking about, information about places will be available at those places. For the first time, the earth itself will no longer be speechless.
- Groups: As weblogs – online journals – become commonplace to the young generation, the line between private and public is being erased... including the line between company and customer.
- The Past: As digital photography becomes pervasive, and as sharing files among friends becomes the norm, personal memories will become communal.
- Truth: In order to manage vast quantities of information, we have to deal explicitly with information about information – tags, labels, categories – which can lead businesses to ignore the real roots of their value: the messy, personal relationships that are the source of all innovation and loyalty.
In this talk, Dr. Weinberger looks at these trends and others, painting a picture of the future that challenges business to change or be left behind. Audiences will walk away with a new understanding of the latest technology trends and their effect on business, as well as how to take advantage of these new technologies.
The Knowledge Management Oxymoron
Messiness Is a Virtue: Information Management in the Age of the Web
Harnessing Big Data in Business
What's truly new about "big data" isn't that it's big - it's that it turns the nature of data inside out. In the Age of Information, data consisted of numbers in spreadsheet cells that were designed to support particular business functions and services. Data was considered useful only after it had been cleaned and it was put to use in computer models that represented domains of life through a relatively simple set of rules. And those datasets were zealously kept private. But now that we're in the Age of Connection, big data's data is no longer separated into cells - it's linked and made public in order to support functions and services that haven't even been invented yet. These datasets now constitute a "data commons" that has value because it enables the emergence of a marketplace of models that longer rely on reducing complex domains to simple rules. At last our data is rich, varied, and linked enough to let us deal with the world at a far more accurate level of complexity - even though sometimes we end up with knowledge without understanding it. In this presentation, speaker David Weinberger explains how these changes constitute a fundamental shift in how we know our world and urges businesses to embrace these changes to fully benefit from this transformation. Otherwise, big data is just a lot of data.
Too Big to Know: The Solution to Big Data Is More Data
We used to know how to know. We asked an expert or we consulted a book. But it turns out that our system of knowledge was limited by its old medium - paper. Now knowledge is taking on the properties of its new networked knowledge, and this is changing not only how we know, but what knowledge itself is. Knowledge is moving from curated to overwhelming, from settled to always in dispute, from defined by topics to endlessly linked, and from well organized to messy. Perhaps most importantly, knowledge is moving from the brains of experts to networks rife with debate among experts, amateurs, the brilliant, and the idiotic. In this keynote, best-selling author and speaker David Weinberger explains that while the challenges are abundant, we now have an epochal opportunity to scale knowledge up to the enormous tasks we have set for ourselves and our species.

Gina Prince-Bythewood has been hired to direct the pilot episode of Marvel's Cloak and Dagger for Freeform, according to published reports this week. Shadow and Act and Geeks of Color are reporting Prince-Bythewood has been hired, after seemingly being confirmed by a retweet of the Geeks of Color story on Prince-Bythewood's own Twitter page.
Gina Prince-Bythewood is best known for her writing and directing of the films Love & Basketball and Beyond the Lights, as well as for her directorial work in the film adaptation of Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees. Young actors Noah Gray-Cabey (My Wife and Kids, Heroes) and Debby Ryan (Wizards of Waverly Place, Suite Life on Deck, Jessie) are also rumored to play the title roles in the new series, according to Cinemablend.
Marvel's Cloak and Dagger will be a live action series geared towards young adults based on the comic book duo of the same name. The characters were originally created by writer Bill Mantlo and artist Ed Hannigan in 1982. Ty Johnson (Cloak) and Tandy Bowen (Dagger) were runaways in New York City who were romantically drawn to each during their shared struggles. Eventually they were captured and given an experimental street drug by a drug cartel. The drug exposure led to the development of their superhuman abilities which gives Ty a control of darkness and Tandy a control of light. Dubbing themselves "Cloak & Dagger," the teen duo took on drug-dealers in the comics and often acted as the protectors of runaway children. Cloak and Dagger originally appeared in Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man, but over the years have also appeared in many different Marvel series, including their own.
Joe Polaski (Underground) and John Ziffren (Switched at Birth) are attached as producers for Marvel's Cloak and Dagger, collaborating with Megan Thomas Bradner of Marvel's Agent Carter. The series is a co-production of Marvel Studios and ABC Signature Studios, and will be the third live-action Marvel project for an ABC affiliated network following Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the canceled Marvel's Agent Carter for ABC.
Marvel's Cloak and Dagger will be the first Marvel series for Freeform, which was formally known as ABC Family before being rebranded in 2016. The series is expected to join the fall lineup for the 2017-2018 television season and filming is set to begin next month in New Orleans, according to a recent story in NOLA.

text: Hey all, I'm from OC, California. I was riding back from the beach, bodyboard in a bag on my back (it's much easier with the onshores pedaling back) when I caught up with a guy who had both a gas motor and an electric motor in his hub. I slowed down and asked him what was up. He clued me into the motor bicycle scene, and I went home, started clicking around and ended up on Craigslist. Found a local guy who was selling Grubee's (80cc's) for a little over $200. I bought it and installed it over a two day period. Well really a day and a half, and then putted around with it. Then I found this site. I should have done that first, but I have been very happy with my install. I'm using a 10 year old mountain bike which I rode around quite a bit. I'm a little worried about something seizing and throwing me off. I take the motor out for 2-15 miles a day, trying to do the right thing breaking it in, but I am constantly worrying about something seizing and throwing me. I've never had anything 2 wheels which was powered by anything other than my legs. The biggest problem I've had is the chain tensioner. No matter how much I tightened it up, it would end up slipping and the chain would bind right around the engine sprocket. It actually got so bad that it blew a little chunk of metal from the top cover of the sprocket. At that point I went to my local Ace's and bought a bolt and washer, installed that so that the tensioner couldn't slide down (I would post pictures but I don't have a digital) and I haven't had any problems so far. It has only been about a week though. A couple of issues I've had: Most of my noise seems to be coming from the heavy chain and where I ride I really don't want to piss off the natives. Would a lighter chain from Dax help that? I was thinking about just carrying around a pliers to take out the master link when I just want to pedal. Anyone have any other idea? That's about it. I hope this thing lasts for another couple of months. I'm having fun. Oh yeah, because this is an introduction, I'm 37, recently divorced (so I don't have the same permission problems that many on this board seem to have), and I'm a teacher. So I'm just having fun this summer.
