Internet Marketing Services
Orion Group wants to see YOU succeed online. We enjoy working with other successful businesses in the Milwaukee area. We also relate well to hopeful entrepreneurs! As a Milwaukee SEO company, we have the skills it takes to help you succeed!
With our Internet marketing services, our goal is to help our clients:
- Improve search engine rankings and website visibility
- Integrate marketing messages that turn prospects into customers
- Encourage your website visitors to take action (quote request, phone call, online purchase)
- Measure the interaction of website visitors for the purpose of increasing leads and sales
Call (262) 204-7265 today and ask to speak with Scott about your goals and to discuss options that will lead to a positive return on your online marketing investment.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Most business owners we talk with want to be #1 in search engines results. They know that most of the clicks happen on the first page of Google and that there is great opportunity to increase their market share by allowing prospects and customers to find them online. With our SEO services, we don't promise you'll be number one (we are not in the business of simply buying & selling keywords for companies with a narrow outlook.) Our desire is to help you dominate your niche online over time for the keywords that matter most – that way, you'll be happy… and we'll be happy to go to work on your behalf.
In order to make improvements in the search results for high-traffic keywords relevant to your niche, on a monthly basis, Orion Group will make adjustments to various aspects of your website, create and distribute content for onsite and offsite use, and build only relevant links that point back to your website. We work with you to increase the authority of your website in the search engines and bring a higher volume of targeted traffic to your website.
Orion Group also has a social media marketing option for companies looking to take advantage of branding and customer relationship opportunities through online methods.
Our SEO Packages
We have three package levels that vary in the number of hours we are able to dedicate toward your website each month, vary in the intensity of research we perform, and in the frequency and type of reporting we provide. With every package we create, you will receive a baseline report that contains the keywords you determine to be relevant to your current marketing strategy. Our commitment is to maintain reasonable organic rankings based on the initial research performed.
With our two more aggressive SEO packages, each month an Orion Group Milwaukee SEO Analyst – who is Google Analytics certified – will perform an advanced Google Analytics analysis. You will receive custom reports that provide insight on the important pages and keywords on your website, as well as a detailed competitive analysis that allows a better understanding of how your website compares to your top online competitors.
Included in our highest SEO package, is an additional free hour of website maintenance each month that can be put toward simple updates of existing page content or creating new pages on your website.
Send an email to us now using the form at the bottom of the page to set up a meeting to discuss how to increase your search engine visibility.
Pay Per Click Marketing (PPC)
Our clients find it refreshing that we don't just keep all of our knowledge to ourselves, we share with you EXACTLY what you'll need to know to continue succeeding online for years to come – with or without us. Pay-per-click, otherwise known as PPC marketing, is another way to get your website the attention it deserves. Orion Group has Google Adwords certified individuals on staff, which ensures we understand the Adwords tool and follow best practices.
Pay per click advertising works like this: search engines, like Google and Yahoo, allow companies to place an ad on their website (usually at the top and right hand side of the search engine pages). When a searcher enters a keyword in the search engine, the ad of your company can be found listed above or beside the regular, 'organic' listings. You only pay if the searcher clicks on your ad. It's a great way to get instant traffic to your website and to test the marketing message and calls to action your website offers.
Because our clients don't necessarily have the time or expertise to handle the intricacies of search engine marketing, our job is to work with you to build the best campaigns possible and to refine your online marketing efforts over time to the point where it is actually profitable to be advertising and not a drain on your finances. With pay-per-click advertising, it is possible to actually MAKE money every time a search clicks your ads – and that is an exciting thought!
We want to see you succeed online! When you dial (262) 204-7265 today, ask to speak with Scott about Pay-Per-Click Advertising.
Email Marketing
Email marketing is a great way to stay in front of your existing customers, or to follow up with new prospects. Orion Group will create a custom HTML email template that you enter your content into whenever you want to send out a mass email. It's even easier that editing a Word document. The look-and-feel will always be there, and it's impossible to break. Our clients find it very easy to use whenever they have an urge to send out a last minute email blast, or just to get that quarterly newsletter out to their subscriber list without having to use the BCC filed in Outlook.
With Orion Group's email marketing software, you will be able to:
- Measure effectiveness of every campaign
- Analyze number of opens and link clicks
- Discover which part of the email your subscribers find the most interesting
- Determine who forwarded to a friend or unsubscribed
We suggest using our email marketing service because it will:
- Help protect your domain name from being black-listed (as opposed to using Outlook to send bulk email)
- Will increase deliverability, and
- Provide you with vital stats on who opens your emails and who clicks on the links in your emails.
Send an email to Scott using the form below to request more information about email marketing. Orion Group's desire is to see you succeed online! We hope to talk with you soon.
Beyond basic Internet marketing services, Orion Group also offers landing page optimization services that gives our clients confidence that their website is performing at its best.

No! The nice lightwell healing is mine and mine alone! It's a small comfort provided for the raid forcing me into Holy instead of letting me play Disc.
ill admit it iam bad and dont use the well. but its mostly because i dont see it. when iam on my warrior on enhancment shammy, i usually dont know its there {since iam usually staring at monster but}. when iam dpsing on my priest or hunter iam better at going out of the way for extra healing. like touching the light well and getting in the magic rainbow circles on the ground.

The problem I have when one is down is twofold:
a) I don't usually know it's down.
b) *More importantly* I'm busy enough tanking or avoiding the fire that I don't often have time to search for or click on it.
That being said, I do click it when those issues are not in the way. It's just a terrible mechanic for a heal in the first place, though. Honestly, just make it an aoe hot and be done with it.

Is it possible to create a macro which interacts with the Lightwell, I wonder?

You may recognize his voice.
"I am amazed it's crept up on me this way," Joel Najman said.
It's been 50 years behind the mic for radio DJ Joel Najman, three decades as host of "My Place" on Vermont Public Radio.
"'My Place' has an incredible, incredible fan base; it's amazing. Everybody emails, from people who say no, that was an incredible program, can't wait until next week," said Robin Turnau of VPR.
Every Saturday night for the past 30 years, Najman has played the songs and told the stories behind the music from the 1950s and 60s.
"I started to play music, but also telling what I knew about the records. I guess over the years I realized that it was the stories behind the songs that really intrigued me," Najman said.
Najman is a music historian. He has met many of the great performers and writers over the years, getting the story behind the story, giving meaning behind the music.
"It just reinforces my notion good music is timeless," Najman said.
His deep memory of music began in New York as a child, just a train ride from the epicenter of the music industry, researching lyrics and the stories behind those words.
"I found it fascinating," Najman said. "I still find it absolutely fascinating. I find someone in the business for many years, you were behind the scenes or upfront as a recording artist-- I love to get this story. I love to share it on the air."
Decades of sharing his love of popular culture with his listeners, a loyal audience that loves to go back in time.
"Popular culture that has become such a part of our lives that it's inseparable," Najman said. "You play the song, people remember where they were, what they were doing, how the life was at the time."
It's a time and a place that's still alive thanks to Joel Najman.
Saturday, Najman and his fans will celebrate with a "Go-Go" party. It's Sat., Sept. 28 at 7 p.m. in Middlebury's Town Hall Theater. Joel will be spinning tunes, sharing stories and getting everyone on their feet. Costumes are encouraged and they'll have prizes for the best '60s hairdo!
Two other gubernatorial candidates shared the gazebo with Scott Milne and Gov. Peter Shumlin for Saturday's debate.

Keeping Teens Safe Behind The Wheel [1]
April 17th, teens will get a lesson from the pros.
Traffic accidents are the number one cause of teen deaths. The National Highway Traffic Administration reports that 437,000 teenagers were killed or injured in traffic accidents in 2005. Distractions like talking on cell phones and text messaging while driving are adding to the problem.
These accidents are tragic and costly, with the average economic cost per death totalling $970,000, and $35,300 per serious injury. (This is according to a 1999 study by the National Safety Council, which calculates economic cost by adding the costs of wage and productivity losses; medical expenses; insurance, police and legal costs; motor-vehicle damage; and employer costs, then adding the value of lost quality of life.)
Come to the Home Depot Center on Tuesday, April 17 to see how Yokohama Tire Corporation, Discount Tire and the Jim Russell Racing School have teamed up to help teens stay safe behind the wheel.

Sign of the Times
My 6-year-old daughter sent me a message loud and clear.
Momlogic's Julie: Over the weekend, I found this sign on my daughter's door. No, she doesn't know how to spell "disturb" or "mean" ... but I caught her drift!
Translation: Do not disturb! I mean it!
Has your kid ever told you to KEEP OUT? I have to admit: It stings a bit ... but I suppose I better get used to it!

Remember Me
This week, Randi reflects on some of the "amazing" things he's seen during his life. Inspired by the memory of his dear friend Jerry Andrus, Randi appreciates the wonders of science, history, and culture that he's experienced all around the world.
Learn where Randi has star gazed, whose corvette he spent time in, and who he expected to see during hurricane Wilma.
To comment on the video, please visit YouTube.
The JREF is quite an amazing organization in many ways - including, of course, that the organization's founder is, in fact, Amazing. One of the ways you may not have experienced, though, is the sense of close-knit fellowship found onboard the JREF hosted cruises, called The Amaz!ng Adventures. The Amaz!ng Adventures are different from The Amaz!ng Meeting in that the group is so much smaller, so much closer, and you never have an incident where you didn't actually say anything beyond "Hello" to someone you swore you'd hang out with (Sorry again, Loon).
Chasing El Chupacabra was the fourth cruise of the skeptical variety, and featured talks on the psychic industry, Mexican UFOs, and El Chupacabra (the Mexican goatsucker, who we were apparently chasing - though why anyone would actively follow a coyote with mange is a tad beyond me).
Recently, I interviewed D.J. Grothe, vice president and director of outreach programs for the Center for Inquiry, in a restaurant inside Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. At a nearby table, a group of fifteen or so men spoke in hushed tones. Sometimes they were entirely inaudible to me, and the only way I knew they spoke at all was by the movement of their lips. It was reminiscent of watching a group of government operatives taking lunch. But, to my knowledge, none of the men in the restaurant were government operatives. They were mentalists - mentalists attending Luke Jermay's Mentalism Workshop.
"It's not exactly a secret society," Grothe said, "but it is a society committed to keeping secrets."
I had never really thought of the secretive aspect of magic before. I mean, sure, mentalists aren't supposed to tell you how it's done, but I never envisioned a whisper-filled meeting that included celebrities like Teller, Max Maven, Eric Mead, and Jamy Ian Swiss. And, for something extra cool, Larry Fong, Director of Photography for 300 and Watchmen gave an excellent talk on story-telling.
I never saw any of the actual workshop - I assume because I'm not that cool - but Grothe was willing to fill me in on a few of the details: The event is, sadly for me, invitation only, and has a very small number of attendees. The one I visited was the fifth of its kind.
Reader Rob commented on this piece that appeared on the BBC website. It seems that Prince Charles has a detractor in one Edzard Ernst, the UK's "first professor of complementary medicine." The scion of the royal family has long supported unproven remedies, and Ernst is appalled at one particular product. The item in question, Duchy Herbal Detox Tincture, is heartily endorsed by Prince Charles. It's also of note that Duchy donates money to Prince Charles' charity.
From Duchy's site:
What is Detox Tincture?
Duchy Herbals Detox Tincture is made from extracts of Artichoke and Dandelion, cleansing and purifying herbs to help support the body's natural elimination and detoxification processes, and help maintain healthy digestion. Duchy Herbals Detox Tincture can be taken as part of a regular detox program.
Globe artichoke, which has the Latin name Cynara scolymus, is a thistle - like perennial plant originating from Africa. It is easily recognised by its large green leaves and attractive purple flowers. Its is a well known vegetable that can be used in a variety of different dishes, and is also a well known digestive aid.
Jeff Wagg notes:
Naomi Baker is a chemical engineer and founder of the Houston Skeptics Society. She is currently in Mexico on her third Amaz!ng Adventure.
Paper or Plastic? How do you answer? If you give what you think is the 'correct' answer, you say 'paper' or you've brought your own bags. Let's examine that choice.
The paper bags used in the grocery stores begin in the forest, with the clear-cutting of forests. Even though trees are a renewable source, there is more to producing new paper than planting new trees. The paper industry is one of the dirtiest industries we have. The chemicals used in the paper pulp process include sulfur, bleaches, and acids. The process uses huge quantities of water, which must be treated and cleaned, a process which also uses chemicals. According to a representative of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, paper manufacturing also receives a larger number of complaints than refineries on 'nuisance odors ' which is a term meaning that the facilities emit very strong, disagreeable odors, as unpleasant to live near as a feedlot. Processing facilities must control odors to the same extent that they must control pollutant emissions.

Blog | 8 Ways To Fool Your Family & Friends This Thanksgiving
Yes, it's true: I want to help you fool your family and friends into thinking you did some serious organizing this holiday season. You can ask for One Year to an Organized Life in your Christmas stocking and next year you'll be sitting pretty. For now here are a few quick things you can do to reduce the mayhem. No one needs to view getting organized as one more dreaded item on an already crowded To Do list.
- Decide which rooms will be open to guests and which will be off limits. Close doors to the rooms it is verboten to enter and post amusing signs like this: 'Do Not Open: Wild Dog (Cat) in Residence!' 'Keep Out: Mersa Thrives here!' 'Do Not Enter: This Means YOU!' An invitation to dinner doesn't have to include a tour of your home or announce an open door policy. Direct everyone to one guest bathroom and be sure soap, towels and toilet paper are in abundant supply.
- There's one in every crowd: be ready for 'The Snoop!' Check under the guest bathroom sink, the medicine cabinet and the magazine holder. Be sure that nothing is in residence that you wouldn't want mentioned on the front page of The New York Times. You don't want your mother to exit the bathroom wailing: "Why didn't you tell me you are on the pill!"
- Make a stop at your local drug store and stock up on all the basics from aspirin and band-aids to heartburn relief and cough drops. It's cold and fly season so be ready with extra tissues as well.
- Peer into your kitchen cupboards and drawers and fearlessly toss the no longer used, the broken, the outdated and the too numerous to count items. Even if you don't have time to organize, you will have given yourself a little breathing room.
- You scream. I scream. At Thanksgiving we all scream for leftovers. Stop at the local dollar store and pick up inexpensive, disposable food containers. Be sure you can easily send guests home with a favorite goody in a container you need never see again.
- Clean out the hall closet. Have extra hangars and containers for hats, gloves and scarves. If you live in a cold climate be sure and have an umbrella stand and boot tray. Meet peoples needs at the door and they will assume every area of your home is this organized.
- Decide where the family will gather after the meal. Prep that room: eliminate piles, have pillows and throws ready, pull out board games and check pieces; be sure the remote has a fresh battery and the light bulbs aren't ready to expire. But don't go overboard: the majority of your guests will be in the kitchen with you!
- In the theater, on TV and in the movies lighting is a key element in telling the story and setting the mood. It's no less important in your home. Set the tone by controlling the lighting in each room. If you haven't had a chance to deep clean the carpets, dust every nook and cranny or polish the silverware to its original luster install a dimmer switch and light a few candles. Voila!
When everyone expresses admiration for the way your home looks and how welcome they all feel just smile cryptically and say 'Thank you!' Don't tell them the rooms they haven't seen are in disarray. It's our secret. Besides you've got all weekend to clean up before it's tine for the December holidays. Thanksgiving is a day to enjoy family and friends. It's a reminder of all we have to be grateful for in our lives. It isn't a day to fret over a less than perfectly organized home!

Hi, all (or y'all as a good Texas—I'm not—would say):
Thursday I will be sharing my current research with you. It's on socially activist exiled (émigré) photographers and their negotations of American channels for exposure. It's starting point is the work of Hansel Mieth (Hagel) and Otto Hagel. A critical phase for these Germans was their employment by Henry Luce's publications, particularly, Life magazine.

The Georgia Tech Financial Analysis Lab conducts unbiased research on issues of financial reporting and analysis. Unbiased information is vital to effective investment decision-making. Accordingly, we think that independent research organizations, such as our own, have an important role to play in providing information to market participants.
Because our lab is housed within a university, all of our research reports have an educational quality, as they are designed to impart knowledge and understanding to those who read them. Our focus is on issues that we believe will be of interest to a large segment of stock market participants. Depending on the issue, we may focus our attention on individual companies, groups of companies, or on large segments of the market at large.
A recurring theme in our work is the identification of reporting practices that give investors a misleading signal, whether positive or negative, of corporate earning power. We define earning power as the ability to generate a sustainable stream of earnings that is backed by cash flow. Accordingly, our research may look into reporting practices that affect either earnings or cash flow, or both. At times our research may look at stock prices generally, though from a fundamental and not technical point of view.
Latest Report
Accounting and Reporting Practices for Restricted Cash
September 2014
For a sample of 41 nonfinancial companies with market caps exceeding $10 billion, we find that restricted cash comprises approximately .80% of total assets. Restricted cash for some firms, however, can constitute several percent of total assets. Most companies report restricted cash as a current asset, though, depending on the restrictions placed on cash, a noncurrent designation may be used. Two companies include restricted cash with unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet.
Within our sample we find ten general types of restrictions placed on cash. Cash may be restricted for bankruptcy reorganization, equity transactions, financing obligations, hedging activities, income tax purposes, insurance claims, investment purposes, litigation purposes, operational obligations, and for regulatory purposes. Seven firms provide no explanation for the restrictions placed on cash.
Twenty two of the sample companies disclose the change in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. Three companies classify the change as operating cash flow, sixteen firms as investing cash flow and four companies as financing cash flow. Two companies separate the change in restricted cash into both operating and financing activities. With a few exceptions, we find a general consistency between the primary reasons for the restrictions placed on cash and the classification of the change in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows.
Earnings Quality: Reports on Individual Companies
In these reports we examine one or more dimensions of earnings quality: the cash flow support of earnings, the sustainability of earnings, or the quality of the balance sheet.

The Denver Waldorf Early Childhood Program is structured to provide a gradual transition from the life of the home to the structure of an elementary school. We consider childhood to be a valid and honorable experience, not a time to be rushed.
In our classrooms, children gradually become accustomed to working within a group, listening to stories, interacting with a teacher and following a daily routine, while at the same time being supported in his or her development as an individual through the encouragement of creative play, practical life skills and artistic opportunities.
Each teacher deeply understands the young child and the need for movement, as well as the child's devotion to learning about the world through imitating everything he or she experiences.Here are some of the core activities of the Denver Waldorf Early Childhood Program and the significance of each in relationship to lifelong learning:
The Starflower and Buttercup Nurseries, as well as the Woodrose, Morning Glory and Larkspur Preschool/Kindergarten classes follow The Denver Waldorf School Academic Calendar, from late August to early June. The morning Nursery and Preschool/Kindergarten begins at 8:30 am and ends at 12:30 pm. Parents have the option to add afternoons, which end at 3:00 pm.
Types of Preschool/Kindergarten classes
All of the Nursery and Preschool Kindergarten classes are mixed-age. We offer three classes for children ages 3-1/2 to 6-1/2 (Larkspur, Morning Glory and Woodrose), and two classes for children 2-1/2 to 4 (Starflower and Buttercup Nurseries).
Student/Teacher Ratio
The ratio is one to eight in Starflower and Buttercup, and one to nine in the other classes. Each class has an experienced lead teacher, a lead assistant, and an afternoon nap assistant.
Extended Care
At the big school, morning care begins at 7:30 am. with Mrs. Clark in Morning Glory classroom. At Starflower Nursery, Mrs. Palmer is in the classroom by 7:50 am. If you need to arrive to school earlier, please let her know. The official time for the day to begin in all the classrooms is 8:30 am.
Starflower & Buttercup Nursery days end at 3:00 pm. At the big school, afterschool care is available on school days from 3:30 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. for Preschool/Kindergarten through Grade 8 students. Afterschool care is reserved in advance, and billed at $6 per hour on a contractual basis, or $7 per hour on a drop-in basis.

It is true that I began speaking out about the misuse of antipsychotics drugs long before they came to national attention. But as I applaud the efforts of our providers and regulators around this important initiative, I would like to make two cautionary points.
Knowing the right questions to ask and the right characteristics to look for are vital for potential residents and family to making a better and more informed choice. Potential customers, however, may not consider whether a facility is for-profit or non-profit
It all started with a gathering. My family had lost a loved one. Some of us flew, others drove but whatever it took, we came together to celebrate the life of our loved one. Within 48 hours after the service, the texts started flying. Seven of us were ill, feeling like we were going to die. Two of us ended up at the hospital. The two who were seen at the hospital were positive for norovirus. The rest of us knew that we were right there with the others. Norovirus had claimed victory over our bodies.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services is set to lift long-term care's exemption from its e-prescribing rule as of Nov. 1. This is bigger news than most realize right now, and there has been no indication CMS is going to postpone things.
The seeds that have flowered into the burgeoning of ACOs - groups of providers accepting the responsibility, and risk, for caring for the health of a designated patient population according to defined quality benchmarks (CMS measures quality of care using 33 measures in four key domains) - was planted long ago, in the baby boom.
In reviewing the MDS, there are several areas to check related to short stay requirements. First, is the Start of Therapy assessment checked in A0310C? If there is not a 5-day scheduled assessment or readmission/return assessment checked in A0310B, has this already been done?
At the Hebrew Home at Riverdale, a large long-term care facility on 32 lush and efficiently manicured acres, it might seem strange to hear about a garden that is purposefully tended slowly and methodically. But in the garden created by the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Center, the nation's first emergency elder abuse shelter, that is exactly what the gardeners are encouraged to do
Our elders enjoyed the unique experience of watching firsthand the life cycle of monarch butterflies. Each of the five small houses in the neighborhood were provided two monarch caterpillars in viewing containers that allowed them to observe the day to day transformation from a caterpillar to a butterfly.
Earning more than the cost of capital is not unreasonable and can generally be accomplished without taking extraordinary risks, but New York is hamstrung by investment restrictions. Investment returns are important to the financial health of a CCRC and can help minimize fee increases for residents.
SNF providers are scrambling to prepare to be "bought" by ACOs, aligned with potential bundling partners, selected as a preferred provider, and ultimately "sold" to the best, not highest, bidder.
Guest columns are written by long-term care industry experts, ranging from academics and thought leaders to administrators and CEOs.

PADUCAH, Ky., July 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Dippin' Dots, the brand that introduced the world to flash frozen ice cream, unleashes their latest wild experiment, Dot Monster Munch, at Mall of America this weekend.
Free samples of new "Disgustingly Delicious™" Dot Monster Munch ice cream will be given away at Mall of America at the west entrance outside of Nordstrom and on the east side near Sears on Saturday, July 19 beginning at 10:00 a.m.
Dot Monster Munch will also be offered alongside original Dippin' Dots ice cream products year-round at Mall of America, inside Nickelodeon Universe.
"We're always on the lookout for fun new products that will enhance the Mall of America experience for our guests," said Dan Jasper, Mall of America vice president of public relations.

Dot Monster Munch is a delicious product with creative names that our guests will love."
Dot Monster Munch features smooth, creamy ice cream with unique flavors and inclusions that can be stored in home freezers, a departure from the cryogenically frozen ice cream beads that made Dippin' Dots famous and that must be stored at -40 degrees Fahrenheit.

Access "Waiting to virtualize: What's stalling data center virtualization"
This article is part of the March 2010, Vol. 20 issue of Critical decisions for virtualization storage
Virtualization is arguably one of the most important data center technologies to emerge in the last decade. In fact, virtualization technology has permeated IT so quickly and thoroughly that it's hard to imagine a business without it. Still, deploying and managing virtualization presents a variety of challenges. For data centers that aren't on board yet, it's time to examine the principal concerns stalling the decision to virtualize and seek ways to address those issues. The cost to virtualize as a deal-breaker Perhaps the biggest sticking point to virtualize is the associated costs. In a TechTarget survey conducted from July to September 2009, more than 900 IT professionals were questioned about data center virtualization. Twenty-eight percent of respondents said they avoided virtualization because it's just too expensive. That's no big surprise. Virtualization often requires newer and more powerful server hardware that can adequately support the performance of numerous virtual workloads. Doing that may require a server with four, eight or even 16 CPU cores... Access >>>

Languages evolve. What is the significance of language death facing the human race?
If you think of a plant as having leaves interspersed at equivalent intervals, you may see an algorithm forming spontaneously in nature. This step, then this step, then this step, and repeat. Another example is the geometric shape of cauliflower or broccoli which are algorithms occurring in nature, manifesting through the observable phenomenon of fractals. If you take those rules and let a human interact with the variables, you get something like the Mandelbrot Set.
If you think of black box trading or algo trading as they have occurred by nature in the human invention of the stock market, you have algorithms again which are causing humans to use/alter real, physical space to incorporate these algorithms within their own machine to maximize it's efficiency (see Kevin Slavin's talk on algorithms).
What does this have to do with language or culture?
I speculate that this shows us a mathematical proof that human behavior is bound to biological rules (epigenetic rules), thus bound to hitherto ungovernable nature. Given this "bypass" of freewill in the human race and based on the fact that more languages die every year than are being created, we can observe that nature's course is to achieve unification of the human race, maybe to amplify cooperation and improve the fluidity of network building. This pattern points directly to the death of diversity in a cultural, linguistic and even genetic way. Monoculture seems inevitable.
In the spirit of memetic, a subject that ironically has spread like wildfire in the past few years, I might paraphrase Susan Blackmore when she exclaims "We are the meme-machines!" Geneticists' work illustrates that humans are bound to those epigenetic rules that guide/conduct behavior, and memetic illustrate that our ideas are basically governing themselves through our living fleshy brains.
Will globalization continue to bottleneck diversity in culture forever? Have we become the tools of innovation? How imminent is the Third Replicator?

Aug 16 2011: Hi Mathieu,
It was our complex collaboration and reciprocation that propelled the human race past lower species of animals. Of course, it was due to our dramatically superior brains that directly led to said collaboration and reciprocation, but these two characteristics were the primary gateways that brought us into a whole new echelon of conscious existence here on Earth. I agree our species is gradually progressing towards "monoculture." We see this progression when we look at Facebook, cell phones, and the Internet. In my opinion, technology is the next gateway that will bring us together and thrust us towards a more sophisticated society of fluidity and a singular culture.

just keep drinking till it doesn't hurt anymore
Here's a question
If the image of an angel becomes an angel why on earth would the Statue of Liberty being an angel not cause massive problems worldwide since images of it are everywhere
Can Steven Moffat finally just admit he doesn't know what the shit he's doing, the angels have been in four episodes, all written by him, and he's contradicted every single established fact about them by himself
when people change their url a lot
i legitimately can't tell your position on the subject with that response image.
You know it was bad when other fandoms feel bad for you.
You know it's bad when the Supernatural fandom feels bad for you.
if i jumped off a building right now would that make a paradox that made sure that 'the angels take manhattan' never existed
Rose went away
So the Doctor is blue.
Ask Donna, "Where's the Doctor?"
She'll reply, "Doctor Who?"
Sarah Jane, and Martha,
And now both the Ponds
Had their fun with the Doctor
And now they've all gone.
So ask me again
Why the TARDIS is blue:
There's a sad man inside
With both hearts torn in two.
If I ever dated Taylor Swift, I would relate everything to orange.
I would give her orange flowers, I would give her orange love letters, I would say "Orange" instead of hello or love.
Then, if I had to break up with her, I would do it with an orange letter inside an orange.
Good luck writing a song about me now Taylor.
cause nothing rhymes with orange I GET IT
feelings suck. emotions suck. school sucks. life sucks. everything sucks.

Another local city is helping to keep youth on the right path.
Judge M.T. Thompson is heading up a month long anti violence, anti gang campaign in Saginaw.
Thompson says a lot of the crime on the streets are gangs fighting over turf.
But he along with other law enforcement officials are hoping to put an end to that trend.
A summit is set for 10 AM Saturday at the Dow Event Center.
The free event will feature presenters who will update those in attendance about the state of violence in the area.
The Saginaw County Police Chiefs Association along with the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity will visit area schools in October to talk with students about the violence.

According to court documents, Dennis Marx transferred the deed of his home over to a family member just 48 hours before he would be killed on the front steps of the Forsyth County Courthouse.
On Friday, Marx, 48, tried to drive into the courthouse, armed with explosives and guns, police said. Marx was killed during the assault.
A deputy was shot during the incident. James Rush underwent another surgery Monday morning but has a long road to recovery.
The documents obtained by CBS46 News show that Marx came into the Superior Court office and signed a Quitclaim Deed over to a person CBS46 has confirmed is a family member.
When the first shots were fired a 911 dispatcher was listening to that radio frequency and was able to send law enforcement to the area within seconds of the attack.
"I heard screams, shots fired at the courthouse, a car has rolled up on the courthouse steps," Ginger Adams said. "You feel sick to your stomach because you know what is going on, some of your people are out there getting hurt."
Adams has worked in the 911 center for nine years. She said anyone who heard that radio call out would have done the same thing she did.
"We are trained to listen to the radio channels and respond as fast as we can," Adams said. "All of us work really hard to protect our law enforcement in the field."
Cindy Lesman was in courtroom one when the first shots were fired. Around 8:50 a.m. on Friday she said she saw a suspicious man enter the courtroom then leave.
"We think it was the shooter, so I have gone and made a statement," Lesman said. "It also felt good to thank the law enforcement officers who saved our lives, it gave me some closure."
Sheriff Duane Piper said his office is looking into whether or not Lesman did see Marx in her courtroom the day of the shooting. At this point, Piper said their investigation is focusing on whether Marx acted alone, or if he had accomplices. So far there is no evidence to suggest he had help, according to Piper.
Piper said Rush is in good spirits at the hospital.
"He is concerned about his NASCAR tickets, and wants to know who is going to cut his grass," Piper said.
Rush could be in the hospital for a few more days.

Malaysia one of the most corrupt nations, survey shows
Malaysia has been ranked as one of the most corrupt nations and listed as a country which is most likely to take shortcuts to meet targets when economic times are tough, according to a recent survey by Ernst & Young, signalling that the government's Performance Management and Delivery Unit (Pemandu) has failed in its role to transform the economy.
Malaysia, along with China, has the highest levels of bribery and corruption anywhere in the world, according to the latest report, Asia-Pacific Fraud Survey Report Series 2013.
This year's survey polled 681 executives in China, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia and South Korea.
About half of the 681 executives polled on their perception of fraud felt that China, Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam were the worst in bribery and corruption.
Those polled were employed at corporations with a turnover in excess of US$500m, ranging from the industrial sector to financial services, retail and natural resources.
"Fraudulent practices are on the rise, and there is a disconnect between the policies that are in place and how they are applied in practice," said Chris Fordham, EY Fraud Investigation & Dispute Services Managing Partner of Asia-Pacific, in the report.
About 39% of respondents said that bribery or corrupt practices happened widely in Malaysia, a figure which is nearly double the Asia-Pacific average of 21%.
In addition, 29% of respondents said that bribery or corrupt practices here have increased due to tough economic times and increased competition, which is the third highest among the countries surveyed.
The report also revealed that respondents felt that while some countries in Asia had strong anti-bribery and corruption policies, they did not work in practice.
Around 40% of respondents said their companies have anti-bribery polices or codes of conduct in place and 35% confirmed that their senior management has communicated its commitment to these principles.
E&Y also found that the risk of fraud, bribery and corruption were greater in growth markets.
"This may be due to a weak control environment that results in policies and procedures being implemented differently from global compliance frameworks.
"Companies operating in local markets may also feel compelled to operate in line with local business culture, resulting in conflicts with global compliance regimes," the report noted.
E&Y found 4% of the respondents "agreed" or "strongly agreed" that it was all right to offer cash payments to win business.
"It should be zero, because companies have a policy of zero tolerance towards bribery," said Torsten Duwenhorst, an E&Y partner.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has staked his premiership on six National Key Result Areas (NKRA), of which "Reducing Corruption" was one of the most important.
Najib and his team have taken great pains to point out to Malaysians and foreigners the "efforts" and "successes" in achieving the key performance indicators (KPIs) of the NKRA.
In 2011, Pemandu boasted that the initiatives taken have shown tremendous results in eradicating corruption.
The government also pointed out that "the effectiveness of the actions taken is being slowly felt and acknowledged by the general public".
However, there are still some well educated rakyat who still refuses to accept the fact that Malaysia scored top marks for being one of the most corrupted countries in the world. They still insist that the opposition is out there lying and trying to accuse and portray the ruling government as being corrupt to gain political mileage
WAKE UP and check it out yourself!
The public is telling you
Your Asian neighbours are telling you
Now the international communities are telling you
Who else do you need to tell you as we are running out of candidates. You want God/Allah to drop in a divine reminder?
Even educated ones are stubborn to listen to others. A pity despite all the education you have but no conscience to it
Reality is ugly, but you still need to live with this ugly truth, not to deny it.
I bet this report won't show up in the mainstream media. And anything not own by BN will be deemed fake as usual by those dumb fools
corruption runs wild in governmental and their related office.
governmental contracts with kickbacks worth millions. and all these money are included in the contract being approved.
just at the door step the KLIA2 cost escalation, where literary you can built another KLIA2 extension.
and the funny things is no question asked - WHY because it's government related and many become rich out of the escalation.
they have the right to delay payment and approved things makes them vulnerable prone to corruption.
you want contract you pay, you want early and prompt payment you pay - thats how it works in malaysia. allah is secondary, no fear of god at all.
What Malaysian government care about.? They don't feel a shame as all their former premier are doing so. Even being investigate by Macc nothing can prove them wrong. Worst still...still can advise rakyat how to behave and cinta..lah tanah airku..... For the sake of curiosity, can anyone just name which ministry or minister are not corrupted?

American institutions open new doors for international students
By Megan Parker
Staff Writer
Friday, October 18, 2002
Most St. Olaf students feel nagged by the decision of what to do after college. For international students, post-graduation plans can be particularly problematic. Not only must they decide what to do, but they are also faced with the decision of whether to return to their home countries or to remain in the United States. The extra decision may seem like an opportunity to some, while to others it may seem to make planning for the future much more complex. What brings international students into American colleges and universities in the first place? According to Angela Goehring, St. Olafs international student adviser, American undergraduate institutions are commonly seen as the best in the world. Of St. Olafs 46 international students, most are here seeking degrees through four years of study, while others are only here for one year on an exchange program. In coming to the United States, international students have a variety of different goals and aspirations. In Goehrings experience, St. Olafs international students commonly want to use their education to go back to their home country and make a positive difference. Others feel they can create a better life for their family by either sending money home or by bringing their family here. On the other hand, a variety of factors cause international students to remain in the United States after graduation. Some feel that after four years in America they are unable to return home; both they and their perceptions of their home countries have changed too much. The longer students are here, the more attached they get to the U.S., said Goehring. Many also feel the skills and knowledge they acquire here cannot be applied at home. For example, often in the sciences students cannot find the same lab equipment in their home countries as is used in the United States due to differing levels of technology. Naturally, an international students post-graduation plans also often depend on his or her major. For example, Goehring said that economics students are wooed here by big American companies and the opportunity for well paying jobs after graduation. As a result of these factors, many of the international students who graduate from St. Olaf stay in the United States. Their student visas include an Optional Practical Training benefit, or one year to work in the United States after graduation. In order to remain in the United States after the expiration of that year, a work visa and eventually a green card must be obtained. An alternative to entering the work force is attending graduate school in the United States. Shraddha Mehta 04, an international student from India, is thinking about attending graduate school in economics and math. After a masters degree, Mehta believes she might work for a couple of years to get some experience for a career, but is unsure whether she will remain the United States after that point. Im just taking it one step at a time, she said. Some, such as Philana Roberts 04, a student from Guyana, have discovered their true passions while at St. Olaf. Ive basically discovered my identity of who I am, she said. Roberts, who is involved in Student Government Association (SGA) and is the Diversity Celebrations Committee (DCC) coordinator, wants to eventually work with diversity issues in churches and is thinking about working towards her masters in higher education. Ive become very passionate about [diversity] and the goals of DCC and thats my passion and thats why I think of doing that right after school, said Roberts. Most

Comments about CZ-USA CZ 550 Safari Magnum Lux Centerfire Rifle:
I've taken it to the range once since I recieved my order. The cartridge is incredibly powerfull and the rifle therefore packs a bit of a punch at the butt end. It is not intolerable, but you'll have to work to tame it. The recoil is mitigated significantly by the weight of the gun and the Pachmayr decelerator added to the rifle at the factory. Contrary to opinions of others the stock design doesn't contribute to felt recoil as far as I can tell. Others warned me it would slap me in the face, it did not. The wood is excellent and fit/finish quite nice for the price. A nice scope with a healthy eye relief of 4-6 inches would make it shine. The iron sights are incredibly good though and even with my mediocre eyesight dotting the I is a very doable and fast method of sight alignment. You'll want a ching sling too, and I wouldn't benchrest it without a lead sled or similar.

|Political party
Elias Nelson Conway (May 17, 1812 – February 28, 1892) was an American politician and fifth governor of Arkansas.
Conway was born in Greenville, Tennessee. Born into a political family, Elias Nelson Conway was the younger brother of Henry Wharton Conway, who served as territorial delegate to several Congresses, and James Sevier Conway, who became the first governor of Arkansas when it was admitted as a state in 1836.
When he was a boy, his family moved from Tennessee to Missouri. Conway attended Bonne Femme Academy in Boone County, Missouri. His older brother Henry died in 1827 as a result of a duel with a former friend, Robert Crittenden.
In 1833, Conway moved to Little Rock, Arkansas, where his older brothers had settled. He studied surveying. In 1835, he was appointed as the state auditor, and served until 1849.
In 1844, Elias Conway was offered, and declined, the Democratic nomination for Governor. When offered the nomination again in 1852, he accepted. With a successful campaign, he was elected as Governor of Arkansas. He was reelected to a second term in 1856.
His administration focused on physical improvements to the state: roads and other infrastructure to encourage development. He formed the Chancery Courts and eased the state's financial problems. When Conway left office in 1860, the state treasury held a surplus.[1]
Conway ordered David Dale Owen to survey the territory west of Little Rock. He commissioned a report on the area. The Natural Steps, were first written about and drawn by David Dale Owen (Principal Geologist)in his Second Report of a Geological Reconnaissance of the Middle and Southern Counties of Arkansas (1859).
Family life[edit]
Conway was first cousin to Senator Ambrose Hundley Sevier and Governor Henry Massey Rector.
After Conway retired from public life, he became somewhat of a recluse. Conway is buried at the historic Mount Holly Cemetery in Little Rock, Arkansas.[2]
