PINE BANK, Pa. (AP) — Consol Energy workers have completed an inspection of a coal mine straddling the Pennsylvania-West Virginia line following an underground fire that burned for days.
The Blacksville No. 2 mine was evacuated after smoke began pouring from a shaft in Wayne Township, Pa. on March 12. Workers spent days drilling boreholes so cameras could search for the fire and water could be pumped into the mine to extinguish it.
The fire was extinguished March 21, and Consol has since attempted to assess the damage and what needs to be done for the longwall operation to begin producing coal again. The company says Wednesday's inspection found no significant safety issues, as crews continued to seal off the damaged area.
It remains unclear when some 500 workers will resume mining.

Entry requirements
Normally a Masters degree in a relevant discipline.
Months of entry
Course content
The research interests of the Department's members include: classical Malay literature; modern literature in Malay, Indonesian, Thai, and Vietnamese; Islam in South East Asia; language pedagogy; phonetics; gender studies; oral literature and folklore; cinema in South East Asia; and translation. These interests are increasingly reflected in the kind of work that is undertaken by the Department's research students.
The research training offered by the Department has been enhanced in recent years by the introduction of interdepartmental research seminars organised by the School's language and culture departments.
These degrees require students to conduct supervised research. The Department provides supervision for both full-time and part-time students for research in a wide range of South East Asian languages and literatures. Theses completed in recent years have included topics in traditional Lao literature, contemporary Thai fiction, the syntax of spoken Mon, the shadow play in Bali, Malay oral literature, schoolbooks in colonial Burma, pre-Angkor Cambodia, political literature in Vietnam, etc.
Under the regulations of the University of London all research students register initially for an MPhil: they may transfer to PhD after completing one year, if they wish and subject to approval by the School, which requires evidence that the student's work is achieving the standard required.
The minimum duration for full-time students is two years for the MPhil and three years for the PhD. Part-time students normally take twice as long to complete their studies. When their research is completed, students submit a thesis to the examiners, and then attend a viva voce examination.
Applicants for postgraduate degrees must have a good command of the language of their field of study, and should normally have a good first degree in the appropriate subject, but students with other qualifications and experience may also be eligible, and mature students are particularly welcome. If necessary for the development of their chosen subject, students will be expected to have or acquire an adequate reading knowledge of Dutch and/or French. All potential applicants are strongly advised to consult the Department before they apply.
Department specialisms
Classical/modern Malay literature; Indonesian; Thai and Vietnamese; Islam in South East Asia; language pedagogy; phonetics; women's studies; oral literature and folklore; translation.

Orascom Construction Industries increased its turnover in 2006 by 46.7% to US$2,865.3m and the EBITDA advanced by 68.9% to US$778.9m, while the net profit rose by 59.0% to US$464.5m. Capital expenditure last year rose by 113.0% to US$1,415.5m, including the US$252.9m spent on acquisitions, but after deducting divestments of US$4.0m. The net debt at the end of 2006 increased by 47.2% to $1,386.3m. However, shareholders' funds more than doubled, with the result that the gearing level fell from 127.3% to 91.4%. While the cement division only contributed 25% of the turnover, with contracting providing the balance, the cement division provided 58% of the EBITDA and 57% of the net income. The contracting operations increased their profit contribution at a faster rate than cement last year, as in 2005, had cement accounted for 66% of the EBITDA and 68% of the net profit. For comparison, Contracting turnover rose by 46.7% to US$2,286.5m and the EBITDA jumped by 110.4% to US$319.4m.
The cement division increased turnover by 52% to US$860.5m, while the EBITDA rose by 49.3% to US$461.3m and the net income emerged 86.4% higher at US$462.1m. Group cement shipments increased by 38.3% to 13.89Mt, while ready-mixed concrete deliveries more than trebled to 1.59Mm³. Group cement capacity stood at 21.0m tonnes at the end of 2006 compared with 14.4Mta earlier. Excluding acquisitions, additional capacity coming on stream should see capacity rise to 30.7Mt by the end of this year and to 33.7Mt by the end of 2008. A further 2Mt of capacity are planned to be added in 2009 and Orascom has recently made a public offer to acquire the outstanding shares in the Turkish cement producer Bati Andalou Çimento, in which it currently holds a 23% stake.
Capacity is being added at a faster rate this year: The renovated 'Line 2' at the Tasluja works in Kurdistan was re-commissioned in March of this year, adding an annual capacity of 1.15Mt. A 0.2Mt additional capacity at OCI Çimento's Van works should come on stream in May of this year, followed by a white cement plant in Algeria in July (0.55Mt) and a 2.9Mta production line for Bazian Cement in Iraq (65% owned by Orascom). The month of October should see the commissioning of two new cement plants; a 3Mta works for the 50%-owned Emirates Cement Company in the United Arab Emirates and a 2.5Mta grey cement works for Ciments Blanc d'Algérie.

The fox in a box set is probably one of my favorite sets to sew up. I love these little guys! Like my other Wee Animal sets there is the main toy – a fox in this set – a tiny teddy bear, a pillow, a blanket, a mattress pad and the Altoids tin. They are fabulous purse toys. Just pop it in your bag and pull it out when your child needs a distraction.

text: first of all, I can't stand this keyboard because it overrides all the standard android features so i have no control over the keyboard action events or buttons. But beyond that, I can't seem to make it go away! I have a screen where i have an EditText and it ends up being where the cursor is placed. On a normal android device nothing happens until you actually touch the area on the screen and then the keyboard pop's up. On this phone, the keyboard pop's up as soon as the screen is shown. I would like to hide the keyboard until the field is actually touched. I tried putting this in my onCreate method with no luck InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(myEditTextFeild.getWindowToken(), 0); Any other advice?

Millmount Fort is Drogheda's most dominant feature and it's most strategic location. A legend regarding it's origin says that it was the burial place of Amhairghin, a mythical Celtic poet and it has been suggested that below the site is a large passage grave similar to Newgrange. Hugh De Lacy, one of the most powerful Normans who came to Ireland, built the original fortifications here in 1172 after having been granted 'The Kingdom of Meath' by Henry II. A few centuries later a larger stone castle was built here and this during 'the Siege of Drogheda' formed part of the main defense against Cromwell's invasion Ireland in 1649. The Royalist defenders in the fort attempted to surrender to the Cromwell's Parliamentarian troops but were massacred when they gave themselves up. In 1808, these original fortifications were demolished and the complex was re-named 'Richmond Barracks' when the present Martello type tower was erected. Martello towers were built all along the coast by the British to defend Irish soil against a possible French invasion. This fort saw no real action again until 1922 when it was considerably damaged when it was shelled by Free State forces during the civil war. It has since been restored by Drogheda Corporation and is now a museum open to the public.

Mary McFadden
Life Path Number 5
Mary McFadden is a female celebrity.
She was born on Saturday October 1st 1938, in Manhattan, NY, USA,.
The key to Mary's personality is freedom. Mary loves travel, adventure, variety and meeting new people. She possesses the curiosity of a cat and longs to experience all of life.
Mary McFadden loves to be involved in several things at the same time as long as she is not tied down to any one area. McFadden likes change, new things and new horizons. She makes friends easily; her personality is upbeat and often inspiring attracting people from all walks of life. Mary has a way with words and an uncanny ability to motivate others. She can be in sales, advertising, publicity, promotion, politics or any profession that requires communication skills and understanding of people.
Mary McFadden likely lacks discipline and order. She can also be impulsive, doing or expressing things she regrets later. Freedom and a need for adventure sometimes is not properly controlled by those born with this Life Path, causing problems with drug abuse, overindulgence in food or sex, or generally abusing the gift of life.
Mary is sensual and loves to taste all of life. Sex, food and other sensory experiences are essential to the enjoyment of her life. She finds it difficult to commit to one relationship, but once committed, Mary McFadden can be as faithful as an old dog.
She is multi-talented and possesses a variety of diverse abilities. However, discipline and focus are the true keys to McFadden's success. Without these, many of the tasks Mary begins will remain unfinished and she will fail to realize the true fruits of her abilities. With hard work and perseverance, however, the sky is the limit. Mary McFadden may be perceived as a wild child by adults and a source of concern by her family. However, she must not be obliged to hurry her choice of career. She is often a late-bloomer and needs to experience life before she can truly know and commit to her heart's desire. Mary's challenge is to learn the true meaning of freedom. Change is constant in her world, requiring adaptability and courage.
Mary McFadden should try to maintain an exercise program, keep her body in shape and limber. The flexibility and durability of McFadden's body will promote security and confidence within her. Mary yearns for freedom, and self-employment attracts her powerfully. Her challenge is to settle into one area to cultivate her ability sufficiently to earn a living and attain success. Once Mary McFadden finds her niche, the motivation and inspiration she supplies others with will bring her much in return, and McFadden will find her friends and colleagues supporting and promoting her on the road to success.
You and Mary
About Mary's Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Mary McFadden's birth. In that instant, Mary stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life.

Coffee beans: sex haven for tiny beetlesPublished On: Mon, Dec 22nd, 2014 | Health | By BioNews
According to researchers from the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil, tiny beetles, which are native to Africa, indulge in carnal activity in coffee beans.
Kinky sex takes place in many coffee beans before they are roasted.
The insects are known as coffee berry borers (Hypothenemus hampei) – the most serious pests of coffee plants worldwide.
Also known as "Ferrari", these insects find their way into coffee beans "after sniffing out chemicals released by coffee plants".
Females are about .07 inches long while males are only about .06 inches long.
Because the males are smaller, they are termed as "dwarves".
When females are not reproducing through parthenogenesis (asexual reproduction), they "copulated with their sibling males before leaving the native coffee fruit to improve their chances of successful colonisation," study co-author Weliton Dias Silva was quoted as saying.
While females leave the beans after 15 days, males stay and even find their way to your home.
The paper appeared in the Journal of Insect Behavior.

Viber is a desktop and mobile application that brings you free video calling, texting, and messaging with other Viber users. Viber uses your desktop computer's internet connection or the 3G or wifi connection on your mobile device to give you free and instant access to your contacts. Recent updates have added the ability to share files with contacts as well. Viber is available for Windows and Mac computers, iOS, Android, Windows, Blackberry, Nokia, and Bada mobile devices, and with such versatility, it just might give Skype a run for its money.

The Viber Mobile Application

To use Viber on your desktop, you first need to have Viber installed on your mobile device. Download the app to your device, and launch it. Viber will ask to access your phone contacts in order to import them into the application. Next, give Viber your mobile phone number, and you'll receive an SMS message with a verification number to get started. Check your text messages for the access code, and enter it into Viber.

After you've successfully installed the application, you'll need to add details to your account so that other people can find you. You can add your name and a picture, or link your Facebook account to Viber to automatically import your profile information.

The Viber Layout

The Viber mobile application has a user-friendly layout that feels completely integrated with your phone's OS. Your contacts are separated into three lists: Viber, All and Favorites. You can invite friends to Viber by scrolling through the All tab and using the invitation link. In addition, Viber has a keypad for making free calls to new numbers and also features a separate message section to keep track of your text conversations.

Sending A Video Message With Viber Mobile

Viber lets you make free phone calls and send free text messages using your mobile device, but unlike Skype, you can't make video calls. The Viber video calling feature of the desktop application is still in beta release, so chances are Viber has plans to extend video calling to its mobile apps in the future. That being said, Viber does let you send free video messages to your friends.

To send a video message, choose a recipient from your list of Viber contacts. Then, hit the plus sign in the lower left-hand corner of the screen. This will open a dialogue box that includes options to "Take a Photo & Video" or access your "Photo & Video Gallery". Choose "Take a Photo & Video" to create a new video message for a friend.

Viber will launch the camera on your mobile device, and you can start recording! Video messages are limited to a minute and a half. This helps minimize your wait time as the video sends, and also keeps your data usage down.

Once you're done recording, you can playback the video and choose to trim the parts you don't like. Then, you can add a text description and send the video to your friend. The time it takes to send your video will depend on your internet connection or data plan. If you change your mind about sending your video message, you can always cancel it during the upload.

The Viber Desktop Application

You can download the Viber desktop application on Viber's website. When you launch the appellation, Viber will ask for your mobile phone number so that it can keep both versions of the app synched. I recommend using Viber on both your desktop and mobile device so you can use the same client for free calling no matter where you are.

| Gypsy Violet chapter 1 . 6/19/2008
A masterful chapter, as always. Your spelling and punctuation are very sophisticated, but in this chapter, you mention the vic has a "Minora" in her house, I think that it is actually spelt "Menorah". Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed your fic. Well done.
| Princess456 chapter 7 . 4/25/2008
That was great :)
| Silvergrass chapter 7 . 4/23/2008
that was um.. nice :)
| Sweetcheeksncis chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
wow! I love the ending! IT was fantastic, funny, well written, in character, and perfect! Will keep an eye out for your new fics!
| Harleyzgirl chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
Love the ending. Only Abbey would be that excited about a concert by what was it, Cannibal Corpse, lol.
Nicely handled ending as well. Just a hint of smut without totally giving in.
Btw, Gibbs is my kind of boss: beat them for giving in then cash in and torture them, hehe. :)
| FireEthereal chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
(this is actually reviewing 6 and 7)
A cute ending. I think Ziva might have come up with a quick snapback reply when gibbs walked in on them. And he might have said a little more (or a little less and just given his all knowing Gibbs look) but it was cute. And them taking bets, Abby and Gibbs would definately have known best.
PS- tonights episode! Was so good (despite being a bit of a fancy clipshow) I know it didn't have as much tiva as you would have liked but I still think it was good. And Ziva at the end telling Tony to go talk to her, aw. She only did it because she cares about him so much. (and personally I totally think Jenny did it).
| murmure etoile chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
Great story! Keep writing that way!
Very good job!
| its.intoxicating chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
It was so good. I hope you write a new story. This was really interesting and fun to read.
| M E Wofford chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
Gads I do love a happy ending.
With some great sex thrown in...
| LorelaiGilmore82 chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
Just great! I hope Abby enjoys her money!
| shirik chapter 7 . 4/22/2008
tnx for a great story! looking farword for the new one to come!
| ncisgirl101 chapter 7 . 4/21/2008
naw! This was a TRULY brilliant FICTION! Start to finish it was amazing! Well done to the max times one million! GREAT FIC!
"Well, I try to have a shower at least once a week Zee-vah, that's just good hygiene…"... this Is just something Tony would say! I love it! :P:P

Plugin - Team Showcase Wordpress Plugin 4936368 by @ CodeCanyon
WordPress \ Interface Elements
With this plugin you can display a set of pictures and information in different layouts. The main purpose of the plugin is to display team/staff members, but it can be used for other purposes.
It's perfect to display the members of your staff, team or working force, even divided by categories or groups! You can also use it to display testimonials or other kinds of content that require an image and text!
You can display the entries in 4 different main ways
A Grid
The members will display in a responsive grid with the number of columns you set and with the information to the right, left or below the image, depending on your settings.
A Grid with Information on hover
The members will display also in a responsive grid, but the information will display when you hover the image.
A Table
A simple responsive table layout to display the members in a simple way.
With a Thumbnails pager layout
The thumbnails of the members pictures will display smaller and on click the bigger picture and information will display in a designated area. Very similar to a gallery functionality where you can navigate the content clicking on the small thumbnails.
You can customize and enhance the layout, with several layout options and pre-built styles.
Number of Columns
In the grid layouts you can choose how many columns you want to display. The Columns will be responsive and adapt in different screen sizes.
Image Shapes and effects
You will be able to choose if you want the images to display with squared corners, rounded corners or even circular shaped! In addition you can give them extra styles, like grayscale, image borders and shadow styles.
Text Align
Simple text alignment options: center, right of left.
In the layouts where this option applies, you'll be able to choose if the image will be above, to the right or to the left of the content.
Theme Presets!
In addition to the options above, you can choose a preset combination of options.
Future versions of the plugin will probably include more built-in styles and themes!
Filter by categories
You can group your entries by categories and display only a selected category or all of them! This way you can even have a list of your team/staff members by position or departments.
Single Pages for each entry!
You can choose if you want the entries to have a single page active or not! If you have the single page activated, you can choose if the entries in the layout will have a link to this single page or not!
Widget Ready!
The shortcode will work on widgets! Just copy the shortcode and include it in a text widget and the chosen layout will display in the widget!
Shortcode and PHP Function Generator!
It couldn't be more easy to generate the necessary code to display the entries. Just go to the Shortcode generator, choose the settings you want and the shortcode and the php function that you can use will be generated and ready to copy and paste where you want! Shortcodes are to be used in posts, pages and widgets, while the php function will be necessary if you want to hard code the team showcase layout in your theme files.
The generator will make a preview of how the layout looks with the selected settings.
Input fields for specific content
When adding a new entry, you'll have new fields for specific content. By default this fields are.
- Free HTML – A text area where you can include HTML content. Can be used for example to include content that doesn't fit the other input fields, or simply to place longer content like a tag line for the user.
- Job Title – Name of the position of the team member, or department definition.
- Telephone
- Location
- Personal Website
- Social Networks links (Twitter, Facebook, Google Plus, Linkedin, Youtube and Vimeo)
Advanced users are able to change this definitions, by changing the labels in a settings php file.
Custom Feature Name!
You don't like this feature to be called 'Members'? Go in the plugin settings and change it to whatever you want!
Default Image sizes
You can change the default size of your images on the settings. This way, when you upload new images they will be resized to the specified dimensions.
Single Page Settings
When can choose if the single page feature will be active or not and what information you want to display on it! If your team member entry is connected with a wordpress user, you can display the latest posts, for example!
Other Settings
Other settings include the social icons size and shape and also if the email information has the mailto:email format or not.
Multi-use! Be creative!
Although this was built to better serve as a simple way to display team or staff member in your wordpress website, you can use it for other purposes! If you have a problem that requires a plugin that will display a list of images together with information, this plugin can be useful! You can for example create a list of products or services!
The plugin uses the awesome bxSlider to build the thumbnails pager layout and the Font Awesome Icons to display the small icons.

Boxing's next big thing trains in Big Bear, a double-handed puncher and unbeaten world middleweight champion from Russia.
Gennady Golovkin (24-0, 21 knockouts) is adored by executives at HBO because he's willing to fight any man –- champion or top challenger –- ranging from super-welterweight (154 pounds) to super-middleweight (168 pounds).
Not that anyone else in those weight classes is clamoring to fight Golovkin.
The 30-year-old is riding a streak of 10 consecutive knockouts, including four successful defenses of the World Boxing Assn. middleweight belt he won in Kazakhstan in 2010.
Golovkin on Saturday finalized a deal to fight Puerto Rico's Gabriel Rosado (21-5, 13 KOs) on Jan. 19.
Rosado has beaten seven consecutive opponents, including tough Jesus Soto-Karass, and has been a mainstay on the NBC Sports Network boxing shows.

No, not that it is Orwellian. That's the Ministry of Truth. The Ministry of Truth was that institution of information in George Orwell's novel 1984. It was referred to by its Newspeak/doublethink nickname, MiniTrue, by most every character in the story. It was the institution through which the State determined what minimum of truth would be disseminated by the rulers.
No, and it's not because I am now resigned to avoid engaging in Newspeak -- that's too Politically Cowed for me. The press lies. Lies. LIES. So what use is sarcasm like "ministry of truth?" None. May as well call it as it is: the Ministry of Lies is fine from a truth stand-point.
The problem I have with Ministry of Lies is that it is too British. America does not have ministers and ministries. America has representatives and administrative departments that are separate from the legislative branch of government. Alas, we did at one time, at least to some extent. But now the Fourth Estate has wholly dissolved into an undeclared agent of the government itself. It is the number one institution that widely delivers the propaganda that the administration wants to be spread. So I've struck upon a new name for the institution that controls all professional denizens of the press.
The old fourth estate once loved to poke fun at elected officials. And it wasn't just Will Rogers and H.L.Mencken, it was just about everyone. Nobody could be sure who in the press would go after them, from members of the Senate onto every other representative from the Prez on down to the local dog catcher -- as in "you wouldn't even elect him for dog catcher."
But our damn
More on this (as prompted by Idiot Anonymous, upon whom I bestowed the pseudonym Cowardly Threatener since he lacked the courage to provide even a pseudonym of his own) beginning here, on another day.
**Update by Editor**
In later posts Pascal Fervor began using Agency of Lies instead of Administry of Truth, and much for the same reason stated above -- administry still sounded too British, plus it was clunky. The shortest explanation as to why.he sought to get a more direct label for the agitprop media was that he saw that we were not an Orwellian world quite yet, and felt it best that he speak the truth while he still could.

Their bond is heaven on earth… but it could tear their pack apart.
Ethan Jager is forced to hide behind a false identity as his pack mates suffer under Michael Tanner's rule. It's not his choice; he was born broken, without the primitive urge to breed driving him to pick a mate.
While his wolf sleeps, his heart has chosen for him: Noah, widower and fellow pack dominant.
Everything changes the day Hannah Kagan smiles at him. Lust awakens his wolf – a first. Hannah is beautiful, loyal, kind, everything an alpha male should want. And mating her will allow him to reclaim his pack. It will also leave his soul with a giant hole when he's forced to rip Noah out of his life.
Hard choices are required of alpha males, but choosing which lover to let go is one Ethan refuses to make. The alternative will not only change the pack, but transform their world… if he can keep his mates alive long enough to claim them both.
Warning: Contains an alpha male whose wolf doesn't like to share his toys, a dominant female who's nobody's plaything, and a beta male who doesn't roll over for anyone. Also: speed dating, werewolf style. Band-Aids required.
Holy heck that was hot! Corrigan made me a very happy reader by giving me shifters, hot m/m scenes, sexy m/f scenes, super-hot ménage scenes, mating bonds, intrigue, and major action and conflict between the Kagan pack and the neighboring Tanner pack. I devoured Shared for Love in a matter of hours. I couldn't read fast enough because I had to know how the trio would conquer every obstacle they faced – and there were a lot of them – and I had to know if Hannah's goal to rid the Tanner pack of their oppressive alpha would come to fruition.
As Nic's sister, Hannah has strong alpha instincts. With Nic claiming the position of Alpha for the Kagan pack in Bridged by Love, Hannah has set her sights on mating a strong alpha male with whom she can oust the current alpha of the Tanner pack and then work to rebuild the pack as alpha mates. Unbeknownst to her, the man she's chosen is the perfect wolf for the job because Ethan is the last of his line, the Jager wolves, and he's been waiting to find a female he could mate with so that he can reclaim his pack. And Hannah is that female. But before Ethan can claim Hannah as his mate, he has to end the only relationship that he's ever had – with Noah. Yet when they meet by accident, Noah recognizes something in Hannah that, as a widower, he never expected to find … his true mate. Of course Hannah is confused after their encounter because she feels the pull between her and Noah, but she also feels the pull between her and Ethan. Even among those wolves who believe in true mates, no one has ever suggested that a wolf can have two true mates, so Hannah doesn't know what to believe. Fortunately for her (and the reader), Noah knows exactly what to do, and he suggests a ménage relationship between him, Hannah, and Ethan. While Hannah believes that her brother might accept and support their relationship, none of them believe that the Tanner pack will. However, when Ethan reveals to Hannah that he's not who everyone believes him to be, the trio agrees that they might actually have a chance to change things for the better for the wolves of the Tanner pack – assuming they all live long enough for Ethan to challenge the current alpha.
Although Shared for Love picks up after the end of Bridged by Love, it is not imperative that you read book one first. That said, I do recommend doing so in order to get a feel for the pack dynamics and to better understand why Nic is supportive of his sister's "unnatural" relationship. Having read book one, I could better appreciate the differences between the Kagan pack and the Tanner pack, making it easier to understand why two men would go to such lengths to hide their relationship for over a decade, and why ending that relationship was harder than Ethan expected. This made the angst Ethan was doling out believable because he had nothing but hard choices that were guaranteed to hurt someone he loved no matter what he did. I loved Noah and Hannah's first encounter and thought it was the perfect way to set the stage so that she would be open to his solution to their mating problems. The chemistry between the trio is smoldering, but it was how their interrupted mating played out that really resonated with me. I loved it! I thought the author came up with a great way for the proper bonds to be forged between the mates. The introduction of Ethan's brother, Owen, and all that his return brought with it points to some really interesting storylines for future installments, and I cannot wait to get my hands on them. Shared for Love was an excellent addition to the Kagan Wolves series and I'm looking forward to the next book already.

Has anyone encountered a similar problem?
We just noticed a couple of our affiliates are targeting ads to locations from which we are unlikely to check (out of Utah).
The problem: (1) ads are for our restricted TM terms, (2) affiliates were out-bidding us meaning Google restricts our ad from being shown if they use our same display URL, and (3) their geo-targeting makes it difficult to spot. Most likely, this has been going on for a few months or more.
(I recognize the very strong argument for opening all our terms to affiliates, but that's another discussion).
I was very excited to see sales from two of our (unnamed) affiliates see BIG jumps lately, only to recently discover the above issue.
Any thoughts / suggestions for more effective monitoring of the SERPs to eliminate location specific leaching?
January 11th, 2006, 06:06 PM #2
With something like that, it'd take an age to check 'em all by hand!
But maybe a programmer who can do something using the Google API isn't beyond your (your company's) financial reach...there should be some way to automate things, as long as you can do it without actually clicking the ads.
affiliates were out-bidding usThere is no knowledge that is not power. ~Hemingway
January 11th, 2006, 06:19 PM #3
You can sort of solve the problem by allowing traffic only from affiliates' own pages. That way any traffic being referred from Google directly (information you should see as the advertiser in the referring URL) can be seen. If you do allow PPC direct-linking from non-trademarked words then I'm not sure how you'd be able to catch the geo-targeting efficiently. The other thing to do is hit those affiliates hard when they use such tactics (i.e. reverse all outstanding commissions and kick them out). Make sure your policies are well described and easily found on the CJ interface.
January 11th, 2006, 06:52 PM #4
Checking the SEs themselves can never be done effectively. But it is wise to check the referral urls of your producing affiliates regularly.

It's just about impossible to predict all the ways that the bad affiliates will break the rules and try to hide things from you. Watch for the things that you've seen before and can monitor, but research your top affiliates and biggest movers to see if there's other stuff you hadn't anticipated.

You'll also find some posers like About.com and even eBay hawking your brand trademarks and cutting side deals with couponers http://couponing.about.com/cs/azdisc.../bla_codes.htm just try Googling -Yahooing for "1-800-contacts" and seek out TM offendersWebmaster's... Mike and Charlie

as lame as it sounds, you can use an AOL account (bring your own access is about 16 bucks a month) to tunnel into a different ip range. Your ip will then be based in VA, not UT. There are other IP Proxy services that run 40 a month min., but you don't get to see all of the fine crap AOL tries to push down everyone's throat.
I'm way south of the states and it's the most cost effective way for me to check my delivery of ads, which are for US only.
By doing away with the PPC direct option, your only going to allow your competition to fill those ad slots.

Thanks for the helpful information. I think we'll be able to get things under control using your suggestions and with a few services that let us monitor geo-specific ads.

Camp Sunshine, a program for children with cancer, will hold a dinner and group meeting at 5:30 p.m. Thursday at the Loran Smith Center for Cancer Support, 240 Talmadge Drive.

Death Valley Ghost Towns
Leadfield Ghost Town
Leadfield's legacy is the road through Titus Canyon. A narrow, twisting canyon that would have been avoided by road builders any other time, but the reports of potential riches were too appealing. A newspaper headline in March, 1926 read, "Tonnage of ore from new California district will be large." The road went in, and over 300 people moved to Leadfield, a post office was built. The residents were ready to get rich -- but that didn't happen. The ore had been salted and the investors defrauded. After six months of futile digging the post office closed and the people vanished. One of the promoters had made off to Singapore to escape the angry investors.

Policies and Procedures
Policy 1235 – Maintenance Service Contracts
July 23, 2003
July 26, 2010
Director of Purchasing Services
Purchasing Services
Policy Statement
There is no standard or set of definitions for the various kinds of service contracts in the maintenance service industry. Each maintenance service vendor offers a variety of contracts starting with full coverage, full labor, and preventive maintenance.
A full coverage service contract provides one hundred percent coverage on labor, parts and materials, and provides for emergency repair service.
A full labor service contract covers 100 percent of the labor to repair, replace, and maintain most mechanical equipment.
A preventive maintenance contract is generally purchased for a fixed fee and includes a number of scheduled activities and tasks. Computer software, software licenses, and electronic online data subscriptions may have maintenance service contracts included in the purchase order or written agreement. Maintenance service contracts may be established for a period of twelve months or more and can be renewed at the end of an initial contract period. Once equipment is covered by a maintenance contract, service may be requested by the using department directly from the manufacturer or service industry.
Reason for Policy
This policy is intended to show the variety of maintenance contracts and/or service agreements and the appropriate application of each.
Special Situations
- 1226.1 - Creating a Purchase Requisition
Additional Information

Adversity Counselor & Parent Coach
Man's Search For Meaning by Dr. Viktor Frankl, is one of the top ten most influential books in the US. Written in 1946, Frankl writes about his experiences in Auschwitz concentration camp; and in part two of the book he discusses his theory of logotherapy, therapy of meaning. You might say his theories are life-friendly. They're not some psychoanalytic constructs reserved for the students of the psyche; they are applicable ways of living a deeply meaningful and responsible life.
I will highlight some of his key ideas by way of some quotes.
"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves."
Unless we want to keep spinning our wheels, which many of us do because it's easier than working towards change, we must work on ourselves. How can we respond differently? Can we view it through a different lens or reframe it? Can we find any opportunity within the challenge?
"It is not what we expect from life, but rather what life expects from us."
This is a whole different paradigm in how we view our life. We all expect certain things from life; all the 'supposed to's'. This is a shift away from the 'me' and what we're entitled to, to the fact that we're here for something – to do, to give, to utilize ourselves in something more and beyond ourselves. This is a great construct to help us when life throws us a curve ball out of left field and an unexpected challenge hits us in the face. What does life expect from me here, in this situation? This is a framework from which to cope.
"Happiness cannot be pursued; it must ensue."
It is a by-product of living a meaningful life, true to our values and beliefs.
"Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom."
How we respond is up to us. It's a choice. Oftentimes our response is the only thing over which we have control. It is within our power to be reactionary or responsive. Not necessarily easy but once we accept it's up to us, then it's doable. The 'I can't help how I respond, you made me', keeps us victimized where we relinquish our power to the other.
"Man's inner strength may raise him above his outward fate."
Our resilience can help us cope and survive our adversity. We can transcend and live on despite our challenges.
"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms – to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way."
Our attitude is not necessarily what we're born with. We can develop it and make it more positive to enhance our life journey. Again, choice is at play; it is our internal freedom.
These next two quotes are not Frankl's but he refers to them in his book/theories.
"He who has a Why to live for can bear with almost any How." (Nietzsche)
A sense of purpose can give us the ability to live on through our difficulties/losses/adversity. In its simplest version, we must have a reason to get out of bed in the morning. And going beyond this, we need that driving force to keep us going so we can bear and cope with our hardship.
"I broke my neck; it didn't break me." (Jerry Long – student of Frankl)
Despite a tragic circumstance he carries on. His inner resources, resilience and spirit, carries him beyond his outward fate. A lesson in transcendence, in attitude, in response.
Which quote speaks to you? What's your take on any of these? One of Frankl's predominant themes here is Choice. How does choice play out for you in your life?

This is such a beautiful picture, Rick. Look at those colors! I have always loved the Hibiscus plant and vivid images of Greece comes back to me, there I had beautiful Hibiscus plants thriving under the Mediterranean sky.

Thank you, Sannel! Well, I don't know if it is a good thing or not to remind you of your beloved Greece. I certainly don't want those memories to make you miss Greece and be sad. Hopefully, they bring back fond, happy memories. Thanks for visiting my blog, dear friend. Your visits and comments are most valued!
