What do these "fix your email" messages say to consumers and do you need to say it at all?
There has been a lot of chatter and commentary about the changes Gmail made to its inbox experience, both by marketers and consumers alike.
OK, so maybe the chatter is coming more from marketers than consumers, but I know at least one Gmail subscriber who doesn't appreciate the tabs. No, it isn't me - I actually like them. That subscriber happens to be my husband. I caught him cursing at the computer the other day because he couldn't find an email in his Gmail desktop inbox that he could see on his phone. He'll adjust.
I do not know whether my husband's frustration represents the viewpoint of most Gmail subscribers, but I do know that marketers are grabbing this opportunity to send all of us a barrage of "fix your email" messages, encouraging and educating us on how best to manage our Gmail tabs. For example, I got an email from Groupon with a clever and compelling headline ("Heads up: Fix Yo Groupon") and two simple steps I could take to make sure I get my deals before they sell out.
And here's an example from hourly job site Snagajob.com, driven by the fact that job seekers aren't looking for job alert notifications in their Promotions tab. Note the clever subject line here, too: ☜ We belong over there. Put us there!
These are two great examples. But is this "fix your email" approach beneficial for every brand right now, and do you need to send one?
What Does It Say to Consumers?
What are we really saying to our subscribers by providing such succinct instructions? Are we insinuating that they don't know how to maneuver their Gmail inbox without specific instructions from the email marketing community? Consumers are pretty technology savvy these days - they are used to online organizations changing things up - Facebook is constantly making changes to how consumers engage with the site and Gmail has been no stranger to making changes to its inbox experience, either. Is it safe to assume that consumers have become comfortable with these changes and that they adjust their engagement behavior accordingly? Maybe. But is it too soon to assume that straight away?
How Many Times Do We Need to Say It?
Here's the challenge. The first time a consumer sees a tutorial-like email from a marketer, she has now been sufficiently educated on how to handle the conundrum of prioritizing her favorite marketing messages - so what is the added value of receiving the second, third, or fourth informative email? This type of messaging may cause some annoyance or frustration for the consumer, so it may be beneficial to monitor your competitors to see if they have provided this instruction to customers already. It may have even come from non-competitors or other verticals, making it even more important to strike while the iron is hot.
When Do You Say It?
If you haven't shared instructions with your Gmail subscribers yet, and you do feel that doing so is driven by a unique situation (similar to the Snagajob example above), you should send the message soon. There is a shelf life on this type of messaging, and that life can be shortened when others may have communicated this information already.
Where Do You Say It?
The examples shared here are standalone messages, but they don't necessarily have to be. Consider including Gmail tab management instructions as primary or secondary content within an existing email communication to encourage the placement of your messaging in the Primary tab. Just be sure that the message goes to your Gmail subscribers only. This may be a good option if you are a little late getting your instructional email out. When delivered alongside other content, the instructional portion is more likely to be interpreted as an "Oh, by the way…" tip or trick, whereas a standalone email, where the instruction is the single call-to-action, could seem more intrusive than helpful.
Do You Need to Say It at All?
To determine if you have a Gmail engagement issue, you should be monitoring your engagement metrics. Take a look at open and click behavior for your Gmail subscribers - compare your April 28 through June 28 metrics to June 28 through July 29 and see if there are any marked drops. If so, then you should probably send some version of the "fix your email" message. If things are status quo, it is safe to assume they have figured it out. Happy tabbing!

Why to use our studies in analyzing user experience?
In our consulting work, we arrange many kinds of studies. The biggest study is our continuous own project taking place globally, in which we are analyzing usage patterns of mobile devices and applications all over the world, monitoring industry trends across countries and device platforms. We are using this dataset in putting our clients on a benchmarking map, identifying deviance from average usage patterns.
For our clients, we typically arrange two kinds of studies. First, we arrange so called focus studies, which are not that long (1-3 months), with a smaller number of subscribers participating. We set up the study quickly with our approach, working closely together with the client. For the focus studies we have a clear picture of the expected deliverables, and this helps in setting up the study. In focus studies there are 1-3 core research problems that we set out to solve, or alternatively we conduct an overall health check by just relying on the dataset to figure out high-level differences to competition.
Second, our research programs are long-term by nature, consisting of either a set of smaller projects, or alternatively long-term continuous studies. Typically our clients who are using this approach are already convinced of the value-added of the MobiTrack approach, and want to integrate the insights into their daily business through constant collaboration with us. Over the course of the studies, we conduct trend monitoring, quality assurance, new service testing, along with a new number of other tasks. And we can always use the cumulative data collected in deep-diving to specific research topics.
Our teams are professional in arranging studies involving real customers. We know how to implement studies quickly, with privacy and communications with customers handled in a sophisticated manner. Our research framework is highly flexible, and requires no effort from you, besides helping in recruiting people. We have been doing this for years.
Ask our sales team for an offer of a study with you.

Canadian shot defending students
Family members of a Canadian who was shot multiple times while defending a group of Manitoba school students in the Dominican Republic are revealing details of what happened during the frightening robbery.
The family says that Les Lehmann, who lives in the Dominican Republic and manages an apartment complex, suffered nine bullet wounds and was stomped by the armed intruders during the incident late last month.
The details have been posted on a website, which family is using to raise money to cover Lehmann's hospital expenses.
The students were staying in the apartment complex while doing humanitarian work for an orphanage and school, and none of them were hurt.
The website says the thieves stomped on Lehmann and shot at him when he confronted them on the property, and then left him as they proceeded to break into the room where the students were staying.
It says Lehmann found a baseball bat and pursued them, and then hit them several times with the bat before the robbers opened fire.
"Les is surprised to hear people calling him a hero — it was his natural reaction — a reflex to the threat that the humanitarian group might have be harmed," the family says on the website.
According to the Franco-Manitoban School Division, which brought the school group home immediately after the incident, the group had just arrived in the Dominican Republic the day of the attack.
Lehmann had spent January 30th welcoming the group and helping them settle in, the website says. But at 1 a.m., it says he was awakened by a disturbance and got up to patrol the property.
He was startled by two thieves with guns drawn. He grabbed a machete while the thieves shot at him numerous times.
They backed him into the bedroom and then began stomping on his head and torso in the hope that he would no longer interfere, and then eventually left him alone.
The family says that Lehmann threw a hammer at them as they left. He then saw them breaking into the apartment, and he returned to his residence to find something else he could use for a weapon. He grabbed a baseball bat.
Surveillance video obtained by media in the Dominican Republic and posted on the website shows what happened next.
Lehmann can be seen in the video surprising one of the armed men emerging from a doorway, knocking the man to the ground and forcing him to drop his pistol onto the tile floor.
But before Lehmann has a chance to grab the weapon from the dazed man, another gunman appears in the doorway and bright flashes can be seen shooting from the barrel of his gun. Lehmann grabs the dropped weapon while the second man continues firing, but it appears Lehmann has been hit and he falls. He drops the gun behind him and his blood can be seen pooling onto the tile.
The second gunman returns to retrieve the dropped gun, then grabs the collar of his companion who is still lying on the ground and drags him away.
For the remaining few minutes of the video, Lehmann rises to his hands and knees and takes off his shirt to use as a tourniquet for his arm. He tries to stand by using the baseball bat like a cane but he's too weak and falls. After rolling onto his back, a dog, tail wagging, approaches and licks his hand.
"Les' main concern was that the humanitarian group remain safe. Even after being shot several times and immobilized Les made every attempt to check on the people in the unit and ultimately he dragged himself to the door to see that they were all out of harms way," the website says.
The website says Lehmann spent four hours in emergency surgery. On top of the bullet wounds and blood loss, his injuries included a broken knee and a broken arm. He is recovering but still requires more surgery and rehabilitation.

To those who haven't been paying attention, the Class 4A girls' basketball bracket may look upside down.
Cyprus and Salem Hills are No. 1 seeds? Springville is a No. 4 seed?
Class 4A girls' basketball tournament
at Salt Lake Community College First-round schedule (All games on Monday)
9:30 a.m. » Timpanogos vs. Woods Cross
11:10 a.m. » Bonneville vs. Olympus
12:50 p.m. » Skyline vs. Timpview

|Post a Comment
But the changes in the bracket reflect the shifts of power during the season. The chances seem to be good that the 4A championship will go to a first-time winner.
A prime example is the rapid ascent of Cyprus, which went 20-1 in the regular season, losing only to 5A's Bingham. The Pirates are one of the best defensive teams in the league, averaging more than a dozen steals per game, and they boast one of the state's best double-double threats in senior forward Lori Parkinson.
Cyprus took a big step ahead, particularly with the transfer of Julie Caputo and moving down in classification, and now has shed a mostly unimpressive reputation.
"I think their attitudes have been the biggest difference this year," coach Josh Adams says. "There's a stigma at Cyprus that we're supposed to lose at sports. This group has really been tenacious and kept their heads together."
Many programs that began only a few years ago are also occupying power positions. Salem Hills is in the top right now, thanks much in part to a deep bench and the strong play of senior center Lyssa Hanks.
But a number of Region 8 teams are in the mix for a title — a reflection of how balanced this region truly is. Maple Mountain splashed onto the scene a year ago in a run to the semifinals and brings back many of the same players. Timpanogos will be a handful in the first round with sophomore forward Eternity Galaei and senior guard Mercedes Riggs.
And sure enough, Springville is in the wings. It will draw Cyprus in the first round, but can't be overlooked: The Red Devils won seven of their past nine to clinch a playoff spot.
"There's a lot of teams in our region that are pretty scary," Salem Hills coach Mike Conner says. "The teams that beat us in region I think are all contenders. It just depends on who has a good night."
The other No. 1 seeds are Bonneville and Skyline, two teams that have won with defense.
The Lakers went undefeated in a region that boasted two semifinal teams last year, and have beaten every 4A team they've played except Cyprus. Transfer Emilie Volk leads the team in scoring, but Bonneville's best weapon is slowing teams down and stopping the transition game.
Skyline has one of the best senior players in the state in center Miquelle Askew. The Eagles struggled in their final two games, losing to Westlake and narrowly escaping Olympus, but they'll be sure to play tough in the first round after last year's early exit.

When first tasting this wine, it was, in today's vernacular, 'OMG.' Cabernet Franc is not supposed to be this good. I have been tasting more Cab/Franc this past year than any other red and although I had some that were very good, I would not have ever thought it can get much better.
It has!
Tonight I dug into my modest wine vault and found a Ravines Wine Cellars, Cabernet Franc 2007.
Cab Francs are not one of my favorite reds, but I find them very nice to sip on while fooling around on the net. The Ravines Cab Franc has made a huge jump in my list of best reds.
I get a lot of pomegranate with some cherry and a little spice or pepper on the nose with a little soil, which makes the aroma a bit suspect. Thought maybe, just another Cab/Franc.
In the mouth though, this wine turned to sure delight. It exploded with a fruit forward cherry, pomegranate, currant and a hint of pepper and finished long and silky smooth.
I can picture this with just about any food, from pizza to pheasant under glass. A little mild sausage on a pizza would be were I'd want it or with a well baked three meat Lasagna.
Found at only $16, so...
Take it from an amateur wine love...Great Buy!

E-Edgey-poo? What is the meaning…
Oh, you must be referring to Prosecutor Edgeworth. I cannot divulge such personal informations and besides I do not really know, but if you really need him, you can always look in the Prosecutor's Office.
What do you take me for? The answer should be obvious…
Yes, I do.
T-That's absurd. Everyone knows ghosts do not exist…r-right?
W-What? What nonsense is this?
For that insult you will receive a….DOUBLE PENALTY!
I suppose that's a good way to put it. It ins't an easy job…
Especially when Mr.Wright and his friends are around, but nonetheless, it is an important job and a very rewarding one, after all, being a judge is about serving the nation and people.
I don't really think that's very likely in the first place, but assuming he was indeed disbarred…
Well, I think despite all his quirks and ruckus he causes, I would miss him and his abruptly and loud objections. He is a very good lawyer, after all.
Oh, this is a bit old…but I'll answer it anyway. Just give me a second, I need to fin—
What's this?!
"Do you sleep with or without clothes on?" That's no question to ask to a judge. Penalty!
It is disrespectful and disruptive to the court, not to mention it is awfully painful.
But please, by all means, do not tell her I said that!
I got this nickname because even though I might be……sometimes…..not frequently…. swayed by other people's feelings and opinions, I always get the right verdict in the end. And I enjoy magic shows…
Oh Udgey!
Love, Damon Gant"—
D-D-Damon Gant!? I-I thought you…retired from the force…
Let's see…
What's this?! I can't allow them to do that in the middle of a trial, even after the veredict had been handed down.
<3 = Im falling for you
:) = I wanna cuddle up with you while watching disney films
;) = I like you a lot
:( = You should talk to me more.
:D = You're sexy/beautiful/hot.
;O = I want to be tumblr best friends.
:P = I want you more than anything.
:K = Kiss me
:| = You annoy me
* = We need to make out!
<*3 = I want a tumblr relationship with you.
nothing i bet
I wont gt anything… I know.
I really don't know what to say.
I appreciate the praise but I don't think I'm ready for a…what's the term again? Digital Romance?
You shouldn't refer to them in such disrespectful way.
But I must admit they do act like silly people.
all the time
You should think twice before talking to a judge like that! Penalty!
…do you really think so?
I'm afraid that's a little too personal for me to answer.
What's this?! You can't talk to a judge like that! I'll have you know that I'm not senile yet, Mr. Crescend.
I remember it as if it were yesterday, handing down your veredict for killing Mr.LeTouse, cocoon smuggling besides other crimes.
Let's see…ah. "Can you touch your nose with your tongue?"
No, I can't.
That would be Mr. Wright, without a doubt. He defended in many cases I presided. He was an admirable professional.
Ah! You mean that scru— I mean, weird detective?
He's alright, I guess. He often confuses me and the court when he's giving his testimonies, though. Maybe that's why he's always getting salary cuts.
W-Where did you get an idea like that?!
I hardly ever do that but, yes, I do sometimes.
Egads! I've been penalised?!
That can't be, you cannot give me a penalty. Maybe I should give you a penalty?
And why would I want to hide it? Being bald is not something one should be ashamed of.
Shave my glorious beard?! Preposterous!
Yup, that's me~
You deal with so many witnesses everyday and I'm like, so surprised you remember me, Mr. Judge.
Is it because I left such a big impression on you?
Ah…a…very big….impression, indeed………
I-I mean, yes….something of the sort…
Ah, yes, Ms. May, you're that witness that like big…vocabularies, right?
[Thank you! — JudgeMod]
Ah, yes, I have. Once. It was…quite embarassing…my grandchild recognized me…my gavel must have given it away…
Ah, yes, yes. I remem—wait just a moment…………
But…I just talked to you! Detective Skye…erm…I'm confused.
[Thanks! And thanks for announcing!! — Judgemod]
Hmmm….AH! You're Mr.Wright's assistant right? You're about the same age as my grandchild, perhaps you can give me some hints of how to use this…'thumbs'.
[Thanks! — JudgeMod]
It seems…my grandchild was right, everyone is using this 'blog' thing these days. I might find old friends!
But I'm not much good with digital paraphernalia, I hope this 'blog' thing is easy to use.

Preparation, Structure and Electronic Properties of the Series RETi0₃, RE = La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Y, and LaᵪY₁₋ᵪ
Date of Award

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
Dr. J.E. Greedan
Members of the RETi0₃ series, RE = La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Gd, Y and LaᵪY₁₋ᵪ, have been prepared and characterized. Single crystals (or crystals with a small volume of twinned component) of many of these phases have been obtained from the melt for the first time using Czochralski and Stockbarger techniques.
Crystal structures of selected members of this series have been solved using single crystal X-ray diffraction data. The solutions were complicated in some cases by twinning, but all phases were found to be isostructural with GdFe0₃, space group Pbnm. While most aspects of the structures varied smoothly across the series, the environment of the Ti⁺³ ion becomes distorted in a tetragonal-like fashion for RE = Gd and Y.
The electronic behaviour of the d-electron associated with Ti⁺³ has been investigated. In transport studies, metallic behaviour is observed at high temperatures for RE = La and Ce, accompanied by a transition to semiconducting behaviour at lower temperature. The other RETi0₃ show semiconducting behaviour over the temperature range investigated, the activation energies increasing with decreasing RE⁺³ radius. In the magnetic properties, all phases show critical temperatures well above 4.2 K, except for RE = Nd.
An attempt is made to account for the observed properties of the RETi0₃ phases in terms of a model proposed by J.B. Goodenough in which the d-electron behaviour depends upon the effectiveness of relevant orbital overlaps.

United Nations, New York, 9 October—Today the leadership of the Special Court for Sierra Leone addressed the United Nations Security Council and briefed them on the progress made and the challenges that remain for ensuring justice in the country.
UN Women Executive Director Michelle Bachelet held a joint press conference on the work of the Special Court for Sierra Leone, especially on behalf of women, following the Court's briefing to the Security Council on 9 October 2012. The Special Court is the first in history whose principals - the president, registrar, prosecutor, and defender - are all women.

The work of the Special Court for Sierra Leone represents a critical landmark for international justice in prosecuting sexual and gender-based crimes committed during conflicts. The jurisprudence of the Special Court for Sierra Leone played an essential role in advancing the recognition in law for such crimes. The Revolutionary United Front trial judgment represented, for instance, the first-ever international convictions of forced marriage as a crime against humanity.
The Special Court of Sierra Leone is currently completing the trial phase of its mandate, with operational funding secured only through the end of November. UN Women has repeatedly called for support to international courts and tribunals to allow them to complete their mandates and consolidate the gains made in the course of their work as regards to gender justice. UN Women highlights the importance of documenting and sharing the lessons learned on the prosecution of gender-based crimes and innovative aspects to strengthen access to justice for women, such as the important outreach work done by the Special Court for Sierra Leone.
In Sierra Leone, UN Women has supported women's access to justice domestically to complement the efforts of the Special Court. UN Women also supported the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and programmes to support women testifying as well as a reparations programme for survivors of sexual violence.
"War harms women in multiple ways. From mass rapes to mass displacements, women are on the frontlines of conflict and they are demanding justice. This includes effective prosecutions of war crimes and adequate redress for women. The Special Court for Sierra Leone has served justice and contributed to peace consolidation and reconciliation within a country destroyed by a devastating civil war, said Executive Director UN Women, Michelle Bachelet. "It is now essential that the Court be given the means to complete its mandate and to document and share lessons learned in strengthening women's access to justice.
The women leaders at the helm of the Special Court are President of the Court Justice Shireen Avis Fisher, Prosecutor Brenda Hollis, Chief Defender Claire Carlton-Hanciles and Registrar Binta Mansaray. Their leadership furthers the mandate of the ground-breaking Security Council Resolution 1325 which calls for an increase in the number of women in all areas of post-conflict recovery, including judicial processes. The leadership of the Special Court is historic, with all of its four Principals being women—a first in the history of international tribunals.
A press conference will be held on Tuesday 9 October at 2 pm EDT in the Dag Hammarskjöld Library Auditorium with Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of UN Women Michelle Bachelet, President of the Special Court for Sierra Leone Justice Shireen Avis Fisher, Registrar of the Special Court for Sierra Leone Binta Mansaray, and Ambassador of Guatemala to the United Nations, Gert Rosenthal, as Guatemala holds Presidency of the Security Council in October.

Thieves strip Boscawen Christmas tree for 2nd time in week
BOSCAWEN - The bottom half of a Boscawen Christmas tree has gone dark again, after a 50-foot string of lights was reported stolen for the second time in six days.
Located atop an island that marks the split between Routes 3 and 4, the tree has become a beloved sign of the season for travelers over the last few decades, according to Fire Chief Ray Fisher, whose department decorates the tree.
Local firefighters volunteer their time to string up the lights, as well as the funds to pay for the electricity to illuminate them through New Year's Day, he said. That's why the news that the lights had been stolen not once, but twice, hit Fisher hard.
"I really can't say what my reaction was, because you can't print those words," Fisher said Sunday night. "I was B.S., let's just say that. It's something the guys enjoy doing, and people love seeing, but I don't know what our next move will be. I don't want to keep putting up new lights so people can take them."
He said he will meet with fire department members tonight to determine whether they should replace the strand a third time.
"My gut feeling is that they will want to replace them, but we'll have to see," said Fisher. "That's what I want to do. I just don't know why someone would do this. It just gets you so angry."
Fisher said for years a real tree growing in the traffic circle was decorated by a snowmobile club. Once that tree grew too tall, town staff began placing a Christmas tree on the traffic island, which fire personnel now decorate. Fisher said it's a job they have gladly taken on for the past eight or nine years.
"This year the tree looked really nice," said Fisher. "We went and purchased new 50-foot strings of LED lights, and they looked really good on it. They were on there last Monday, but then by early Tuesday the lights on the lower part of the tree were gone."
Fisher said he purchased another 50-foot string of LED lights, and once again placed them on the tree, this time securing them with tie-wraps.
The tie-wraps were cut and the lights removed sometime early Saturday, he said. The tree had several branches broken off.
Fisher said Boscawen police are investigating.
"I think the first time, it was someone looking to get a free set of new lights," Fisher said. "The second time, I'm not sure. That could have been spiteful."

Annas is known for her accessible lectures and accomplished scholarship, and is one of the leading voices in philosophy worldwide. She is currently Regents professor of philosophy at the University of Arizona, where she has taught for 13 years. She taught for 15 years at St. Hugh's College in Oxford, and she founded and formerly edited the annual journal "Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy."
Annas has published several books, including "Aristotle's Metaphysics M and N, translated with an introductory essay and philosophical commentary" and "Plato: A Very Short Introduction." She has also edited several volumes and has had her works translated into seven different languages.
Annas' connection to Northfield is poignant. She served as the Cowling visiting professor of philosophy at Carleton College and her daughter is a Carleton College alumna. She was also a friend of Eunice Belgum '67, the philosopher in whose memory these lectures are annually held.
Belgum, who graduated from St. Olaf College in 1967, received a Ph.D. in philosophy from Harvard University, where she and Annas were classmates. She taught at Trinity College and the College of William and Mary after graduating from Harvard, and was one of the original members of the Society for Women in Philosophy. After her tragic death in 1977, Belgum's family and friends set up a fund to support an annual lecture series in hopes that her dedication to teaching and scholarship might live on.
The St. Olaf College philosophy department makes a special effort to choose lecture topics relevant to Belgum's interestsnamely ethics, philosophy of mind and feminismthough the lectures may be on any topic.
Annas' lectures seek to honor the memory of Eunice Belgum in topic and content. Books by Annas are available in the St. Olaf Bookstore and a book signing will follow each of her lectures.

Incubus - Promises Promises
Here it is, my thousandth post - just shy of a year and two weeks after I started this blog. To celebrate, I'm looking back to that very first day, when I'd posted this video with a one-word comment: "Sexy." I want to say it wasn't the first time I'd heard something by Incubus, but it was definitely the first time I'd ever laid eyes on Brandon Boyd, and it's been nothing but constant misery ever since! ♥

Boat Rental Lebanon
One of the best thing in summer to rent a boat you and your friends and enjoy cruising along the Lebanese beach either to the North passing by Jbeil and seeing the best views ever or to the South passing by Beirut and enjoying the sight of downtown from the beach.
Very nice activity to do during the day or the night both are fantastic. Usually boats cruise within the beach for 8 hours and you will be very sad when the cruise time will finish. Cruising during the day will let you enjoy the sun, relax, have a good time far from the routine things that you usually do everyday. While cruising at night will let experience clubbing in the boat. It is different than clubbing anywhere else, it will be one of the best parties you went to. To rent a boat you should do your reservation one week in advance and you should pay a down payment fee.

Chapter 13:I'm running around in circles.2 Reviews
Brendon walked into the living room to be glared by everyone, except for Jon and Kara who had no clue of what was going on. Jon jst went along with them and glared.
"Why is everyone glaring at him?" Kara asked.
Spencer signaled Kara to come over and whispered something.
And everyone looked at Kara.
Jon gasped. "Who?" He asked.
Everyone looked at him with a 'DUH' face.
"Yah!" Kara yelled. "Brendon!"
"What? What I do now? Yeah, the big whole in the o-zone is my fault too! Oh and did I mention that I'm the one who knocked down the twin towers and killed all of those innocent people?!" Brendon yelled.
Everyone staired at him.
"Is there something wrong with me?" Brendon asked. "Am I not perfect enough for you guys? Well, guess what guys. NOBODY'S PERFECT!" He screamed. He slammed the door open and walked out, and then slammed the door shut.
"You know, Ryan. He's right." Spencer said. "You were the one who went blistic on him."
Everyone staired at Ryan. "Shut up."
Spencer got up. "Yeah, sorry for actually caring."
Lilee was gonna have to tell Jared eventually. Sure, she still has a few months but he would find out. She also wondered whether Brendon told the band. She wouldn't mind but what if they murdered him...with feeling really bad. She really wished she was there now.
Also, her new friend Skye. Whom she has known for 2 days, 2 hours, 46 minutes and 80 seconds. Can't blame her for knowing because having dropped out of school gives you A LOT of time to kill. There was a slight chance that she could see her on tour with Taking Back Sunday and she wouldn't be the only girl. She's be the only girl with a baby. Perhaps Skye would help. But then again, Skye would be in college for 4 years. But there is the summer.
She always had Kara though. Only Kara might be just as angry as the guys. The fact that she's older and engaged. Lilee might not have a choice about marrage though. Only Brendon was the one she wanted to marry. She was gonna wait till she was atleast 21 though. Because, weddings have drinks. Lots and lots of drinks. Sounded tempting. She could always slip one though...
What was she thinking? Drinking? Esspecially with child. Jeeze she was going absolutly insane!
With someone knocking on her door she got out of her thoughts and answered it.
"Who is it?"
Would she ever give her sometime to think? Probably not.
"Come in. Doors unlocked."
"Bad idea. Esspecially in New York, you should Always have your door locked."
"Oh well, if I get kidnapped, I get kidnapped. Nothing I could do."
Skye smiled and shook her head. "Not with the little one." She laughed.
Lilee had a sudden flow of nausea go through her. The thought of that made her sick. So it wasn't sickness. "Yeah."
"So, you told Brendon, what about Jared?"
"What part of my life don't you know?" She laughed. "And, I'm gonna tell Jared in person. I'll tell him about me dropping out today. He'll be happy."
"But you just wasted a WHOLE bunch of money."
"Yeah. You're right. But he'll be happy that I'm coming back to Vegas. Anyways, we do have lot of money. I guess you can say with his stardom rising, the money rose too."
"I thought you weren't rich."
"I wasn't. But now he is. I'm kind of well off now that I'm a regular celeberty and is dating a celeberty. I'm in A LOT of magezenes."
"Yeah. I was in one but I was identified as a fan."
"Oh. That must suck."
"Nah, at least I was in one."
They both laughed.
"But before I go, you must do one thing."
"Call your dad right now."
Lilee sighed and picked up the phone. She dialed his number.
"Hey Sabrina, is my dad there?"
"Yeah, hold on."
Lilee heard Sabrina call his name.
"Hey." He said.
"Hey dad."
"You rang?"
"Yeah. Dad, I'm dropping out."
She heard him sigh. "Okay. Why?"
"Something about Panic!"
"Oh. Okay."
"I already have a ticket back to Las Vegas."
"Is there an exact reason why you're dropping out."
"It has to do with me and Brendon, okay? I really can't talk about it."
"So you're okay with it?"
"Kind of."
"And I'm not going back to college."
"That I am angry about."
"Love, you bye."
And she hang up.
"I did it."
Skye smiled. "Good, you're getting better at this stuff."
"Yeah, and I can't believe it."

One man is dead after officials say he fell off of a truck bed.
August 14, 2003
Albany-- Nationwide it is an epidemic, and still growing, and counterfeit checks are becoming more common at local banks.
Bankers and Police gathered for a strategy session, to see if there are ways to keep fake checks and identity fraud from growing in South Georgia.
The banks say counterfeit checks are not an overwhelming problem yet, and they don't want it to be.
Nita Gaines of the Artesian Financial Group said "Bankers are very concerned about what is happening with their customers. The Police Officers are very concerned because they are trying to help people resolve these problems. And they are trying work together, to network. Thieves can steal your check I.D. numbers, then print counterfeit checks, and make off with your money and a store's merchandise... all in just a matter of hours."
Albany Police Sgt. Darin Abner said, "I look at it as being a billion dollar a year industry. So much fraud is going on. It's occuring. And it's not just in this country, it's worldwide. It's a big thing and it all just goes down to greed."
Regular home computers and check printing paper is all that is needed to make counterfeit checks. The most practicle way to stop the theft is to guard your financial information.
Gaines said "It's a local problem. It can happen to any of us, and we need to be taking the steps that we can take on a local basis to educate the community."
The best ways to protect your financial identity are to limit the number of accounts you have, keep a close eye on your monthly statements, and use post office boxes to mail your bills, rather than your home mailbox.

Topic - FS: Paramo Velez Adventure Light (s)
Glyno - on 01 Jan 2014 - user since 18/Sep/03
Price: Ł60
I am selling a Paramo Velez Adventure Light smock
Size: Small
Colour: Red and BLACK. Bought directly from Paramo a couple of years ago, this is a limited edition (those in shops were red and grey, not black).
It has had fairly light use and as such is in great condition and has only ever been washed in Nikwax Techwash.
This is a brilliant garment, a little too warm in summer maybe, but brilliant over just a base layer in colder months.
I'd love not to be selling but desperately need to free up wardrobe space.
Price: Ł60 posted - 1st class (UK)
Please email or phone/text o78555o7475
Cheers, Glyn.

Fellows of Senate
Sir John Beverley Peden
An early graduate of the University of Sydney (BA 1892, LLB 1898), Sir John Beverley Peden was a Fellow of Senate from 1910 to 1941.
(1871 - 1946)
BA LLB Sydney
Fellow of Senate 1910 - 1941
His early years
John Beverley Peden was born on 26 April 1871, second son and sixth child of Magnus Jackson Peden, merchant and farmer, and mayor of Randwick and of Bega, and his wife Elizabeth Neathway, née Brown. The Browns had migrated to Australia in the 1820s and the Pedens in the 1830s.
He was educated at Bega Public School and Sydney Grammar School where he secured the Windeyer Essay Prize, Senior Knox Prize, and the Boyd Morehead Scholarship tenable at the University of Sydney.
His student days at the University of Sydney
In 1889 Peden matriculated at the University of Sydney with first-class honours in classics, and graduated BA in 1892 with first-class honours in Latin and in logic and mental philosophy.
While studying law, he was vice-warden of St Paul's College (1892-98), assistant lecturer in Latin (1896), president of the Sydney University Union (1893-94 and again in 1910-11) and of the Undergraduates' Association, and editor of Hermes (1895).
In 1898 he graduated LLB with first-class honours and the University medal.
His career
Peden was admitted to the Bar on 4 August 1898 and read in the chambers of R M Sly.
Although he established a successful practice, Peden directed his legal expertise towards the University of Sydney. In 1902 he was appointed part-time Challis lecturer in the law of property at the University. He continued to practise until he succeeded Pitt Cobbett as Challis professor of law and dean of the faculty in 1910. Under Peden the law school grew steadily in reputation and influence. He was president of the Sydney University Law Society, examiner for the Barristers' Admission Board and ex officio chairman of the Solicitors' Admission Board. He was known to his students as 'Jacko', welcomed women law students and in World War I maintained a large correspondence with ex-students fighting overseas.
He became a member of the Legislative Council in 1917. and in 1929 was elected President of the Chamber, a position he held until his retirement in 1946.
He took silk in December 1922, and in 1930 he was appointed KCMG.
He would have preferred all law students to have taken an arts degree first to gain a cultivated awareness of law in society. In 1936 he persuaded the university that no student under 17 should be admitted to law.
Due to retire in April 1941, Peden offered to carry on without emolument as a gesture to war service. Despite ill health, he continued to administer although not to teach.
In late 1941, together with the chancellor, Justice Sir Percival Halse Rogers, Justice (Sir) Colin Davidson and Sir Henry Manning, he resigned from the Senate in protest at the appointment of two professors of law to replace himself and A H Charteris: the Senate had not consulted the judges and ignored a proposal that the positions should not be filled until after the war. He was immediately made emeritus professor.
In addition, he was a trustee of the Mutual Life & Citizens' Assurance Co Ltd (chairman of directors from 1939), a director of the New South Wales Land & Agency Co Ltd and associated companies, a fellow of St Paul's College (1901-28), chairman of trustees of Sydney Grammar School (1932-46), secretary of the Sydney Round Table group (1918-35), president of the Japan-Australia Society and of the Boys' Brigade, and a practical farmer at Cobargo, near Bega. He was chancellor of the Anglican dioceses of Bathurst and, later, Newcastle. Peden devoted years to framing successive versions of a new constitution for the Church of England in Australia.
He died on 31 May 1946, one month after retiring, following an accident.
From the Australian Dictionary of Biography and Sydney Morning Herald articles
His membership of Senate
Peden was a Fellow of the Senate (and active on many of its committees) from 1910 to 1941 when he resigned in protest, and chairman of the professorial board in 1925-33.
Senate's tribute
The 1946 Senate Report records the following: "At the regular meeting of the Senate held on the 1st December, 1941, resignations from the office of Fellow were received from the Honourable Sir Percival Halse Rogers, the Honourable Mr Justice C G W Davidson and the Honourable Sir John Peden. The resignations were received with regret, and, at an adjourned meeting in December, the Senate decided to express its gratitude for the valuable services each had rendered the University during the-tenure of his Fellowship. To fill the vacancies so caused, the Senate fixed Tuesday, the 24th February, 1942, as the day for the holding of a by-election."

Pair programming is perhaps the most underestimated agile practices. Many organizations that adopt agile are still very sceptic towards pair programming. I talked about this as a part of my talk on "Unintuitive parts of agile" at SDC 2009, and I intend to write more about it.
At SDC 2009, I also showed the pair programming desk that we designed at factor10. Over the years we've been pairing at various client sites on straight desks, the rounded (convex) ends of conference tables, and on really bad setups on concave desks. To make a long story short, when we furnished the factor10 Gothenburg office, we decided to create a great desk for pair programming and now that we've had it for a year, we've decided to publish the blueprints under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike license. Any decent wood workshop should be able to use the blueprints if you want one yourself.
More information and the blueprints can be found at the factor10 website. If you decide to build one for yourself, I'll be interested to hear your feedback, and if you decide to use the power of Creative Commons and modify it to better suit your particular need, I'd be very curious to hear about modifications and how they worked out.

Grouper with Puttanesca Sauce
connecticut Posted: 01/01/09
No Longer Registered Posted: 11/02/09
This was good but I missed the anchovies and hot pepper flakes that are in a traditional Puttanesca so I sauteed two anchovy filets with the onion and added 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper flakes with the tomatoes (which I did not drain). Served it with angle hair pasta. It was a hit.
mela4994 Posted: 03/04/10
I have made this recipe countless times and it is always a hit. I usually use tilapia instead of grouper and diced tomatoes seasoned with basil and oregano instead of the whole tomatoes. Everyone always raves about it.
ksofen Posted: 09/10/10
This dish was great, will make it again for sure ! I used diced tomato with garlic & basil, as I see someone else had mentioned also.
inspired2cook Posted: 05/02/12
This recipe is so easy to make and it turns out beautifully! The color on your plate and the flavors are amazing! I serve this with wilted spinach and everything just looks and smells mouthwatering! Definitely a keeper!

Kernen's Corner: The Grande Ballroom
Posted In: 1960s music, D'Annunzio, dick kernen, Kernen Corner, Louder Then Love" Documentary, News, rock n' roll, Specs, The Grande Ballroom, Tony, Uncle Kernen
Comments: One Response
Kernen sits down again with Tony D'Annunzio and takes a look at a documentary focused on the 60′s rock revolution in Detroit! While the West Coast was groovin' to the sounds of the "Summer of Love" in 1967, Detroit was pumping out a hard-driving, gritty and raw sound that was "Louder Than Love." The Grande Ballroom stood as the epicenter of the Detroit rock music scene that spawned in the late '60s. Serving as the starting point for bands such as MC5, Iggy & The Stooges, Ted Nugent & The Amboy Dukes and more, the Grande not only influenced local Detroit musicians but inspired bands from all over the U.S. and Great Britain. Legendary acts like Led Zeppelin, Cream, B.B. King, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd and the Who soon began to grace the stage at the Grande on a regular basis. This theatre was a place where the greatest of musicians of the time came to play and Tony tells us all about how the idea got started, and how he made the documentary "Louder then Love" happen.

Ilyasova playing patient, effective basketball
OCT 15, 2012 4:13p ET
But as one of the franchise's cornerstones — with a contract extension in tow — fans might have been hoping for more. But Bucks coach Scott Skiles took it as a positive. Ilyasova wasn't forcing anything. If and when the offense opened up for the young stretch forward, Skiles knew Ilyasova would take advantage.
And, boy, did he take advantage.
As the primary catalyst in a 40-point third quarter, Ilyasova didn't miss a single shot and tallied 18 points in just a five-minute span. Perhaps most importantly, Ilyasova didn't force up a single shot, taking what the offense gave him and finding shockingly wide-open shots throughout the entire quarter.
It was a flash of greatness for Ilyasova and the Bucks offense, which has invested a lot in Ilyasova's development. For Ilyasova, it could be the sign that even better performances are on the horizon.
"The other night was a good example of hopefully where he's gotten to in his career," Skiles said. "He wasn't pressing in the first half; nothing really came to him. A lot of young guys don't really understand how long the game is and how many possessions there are. You average 16 points per game — and there have been some All-Stars averaging that — and that's four points per quarter, a basket and two free throws in every quarter. ... People panic, they get stressed, and they get anxious, and they miss open shots. I think it's fair to say Ersan has done that in the past, but he's really calmed himself down."
When all was said and done on Saturday, Ilyasova finished with an impressive line of 22 points and seven rebounds, which, for anyone expecting Ilyasova to take a step back after a breakthrough last season, was evidence to the contrary.
As Skiles alluded to, Ilyasova wasn't always that calm with the ball. But coming to a new team in 2006 as a 19-year-old, Ilyasova wasn't quite seasoned enough to understand what he does today. At 25 now, he says his game has clearly matured. He's not in a rush, like he used to be.
"One of his issues in the past was his man would help, the ball would come back to him, a teammates man would rotate, and he would shoot it, instead of making the extra pass," Skiles said. "He's much, much better with that now, feeling when he's open and not pressing if he doesn't get a shot. There are some guys in the league that are like junkies — if they don't get a shot for a couple minutes, they're going to throw up any old shot. He's really calmed himself down. Everybody knows when his feet are set and he gets a good look, he's a high-level shooter."
It's not just age and experience though, Ilyasova says, that have contributed to a change in his game. Much of it has to do with comfort and continuity.
Now in his fourth year with Brandon Jennings in the backcourt, the two have come to understand each other much better than they did in year one. And that kind of chemistry can work wonders for an offense. On Saturday, the pair showed their experience together as Jennings drove to the hoop in the third quarter, pulling Ilyasova's defender into the post. Then, without much of a glance at all, Jennings fired a pass to a wide-open Ilyasova for an easy 3-pointer. It was as smooth as the Bucks' offense — or any offense for that matter — could possibly execute a play of that nature.
"I think it's more team chemistry," Ilyasova said. "We kind of understand our game and know how to read each other. Brandon makes really good decisions on the pick and roll. … I've played a lot of years with him now."
And with experience comes more steps forward. After finishing second for the NBA's most improved player award last season, Ilyasova may be hard-pressed to make a bigger jump from last season to this season. But with improved team chemistry and more weapons, by his side, this season might be quite the leap for Ersan Ilyasova.
